(fanimr Sat Utrtfma Alas (Strutt 0tii?0 mtttQS tn Btrruijilj Jforetoorb S four years of difficulty and ease; sadness and joy; gravity and levity, spin rapidly toward memory, leaving the tangible world forever, we are immediately driven to the begin- ning of a seemingly interminable, unpaved, untrodden highway. Not a streetlamp is visible, nor a sign post nor any verdant foliage — not a sound can be heard. The vast population seems a fantasy as we are encompassed by nothing but solemn deso- lation. The road winds gradually uphill, ribboning farther away, farther until merely an infinite horizon is manifest, a horizon which seems to yearn for a conquerer. And conquer it we must if we are to attain satisfaction — We, as sole engineers must build the path ahead, for we dare not relinquish our seat on the council of intelligent participation in the world community. Each even batch of mortar spread, each tree planted by the roadside gives us an added sense of fulfillment. We gradu- ally learn to cope with all impediments, strange faces and spirit- ual upheavals. There is no point to slothful production because we all want to enjoy life and only a useful and constructive one can be enjoyed. Too quickly do the milestones turn to headstones. The past must be rarely considered, but for short moments of ecstacy; the present must be wisely improved; we must go forth to meet the shadowy future without fear and with strong hearts. But as we toil and sweat, laugh and cry, let us build our- selves a stool, have a seat, wipe our brows and take that ecstatic jaunt backwards as we turn the pages of this book — the META of nineteen hundred sixty-five.
