SENIOR OFFICERS itrikilr THE SENIOR CREED WE BELIEVE IN: LEADERSHIP The right of commanding is no longer an advantage transmitted by nature: like an inheritance, it is the fruit of la- bors, the price ot courage.-Voltaire. RESPONSIBILITY The assurance that this is a state ot probation, should give vigor to virtue and solemnity to truth. Every hour as- sumes a fearful responsibility when we view it as the culturer of an immortal harvest.-Sigourney. FAITH Faith lights us through the Dark to Deity, faith builds a bridge across the gulf of death, to break the shock that na- ture cannot shun, and lands thought smoothly on the further shore.-Young. PATRIOTISM Let our object be our country, our Whole country, and nothing but our country. And, by the blessing of God may that country itself become a vast and splendid monument, not of oppression and terror, but of Wisdom, of peace, and of lib- erty, upon Which the World may gaze with admiration forever. -Webster. 4 , . 4 54 'S.
