LTHOUGH Ohio State ranks as one of the foremost Universities in the country, it has not yet even approached the heights to which it may aspire. New, undreamed of goals have risen before our eyes. That we are steadily progressing toward the goals is proved by the construction, now under way, of the Stadium, the Women ' s Building, the Chemistry Building, the Women ' s Dormitory, the new section of the Physics Building, the Homoeopathic Laboratory, and others. Plans have been drawn up and approved for a new Commerce and Journalism Building, a Medi- cal Science Building, an addition to Brown Hall, and other Buildings for class rooms. With the continued support and interest of the legislature further extensions may be planned. We are the school of a great state. There is a task before us: to educate the people of Ohio to realize the value of their University. Our efforts of past years are now beginning to bear fruits, but we will by no means discontinue them. This school, significant of the State of Ohio, is worthy of its support.

fmmUfe Campus Vistas Here under these shades, Along these cool, leafy walks .... Under the silver laees of sun-lacquered branches Of oak and sage elm, many unforgotten deeds Have left a phantom .... Old friendships .... old faces .... old dreams Of life .... ambitions .... And here in these halls are ghosts Of our forgotten selves .... husks Of our old ways, flung off for newer things; They linger .... and perhaps they call at times For the old self .... call on the beat of the chimes And the breath of each new Spring. Hut we are going .... and under these trees And in these shades and grass-scented crannies We leave our older selves, And know that In the sweet odors of these lawns. In the bloom-honeyed winds in the trees, In the deep gloom of these shadowed walls They sleep.
