TO THE CLASS OF 1935 LIKE to think of you individually rather tlun in a class group, so in my farewell message to you, I am clasping you In the hand, looking you in the eye and wishing you Godspeed. You are facing a world burdened with depression and uncertainty but you are fac- ing a world of opportunity, and you are equipped for service. You have had the ad- vantages of education that come to com- paratively few, because you have learned to lose yourselves in service, we have faith in your ability to find yourselves. The supreme purpose of life is not merely material gain. To be sure, a man must work for financial reward in order to keep alive, but the only reasonable justification for his keeping alive is that he shall have a life worth living, — a life that is more than a mere physical existence — friends, society, phi- losophy, literature, art, all that enlarges the circle of intellectual interest and kindles the imagination, that brings power, breadth and balance, are part of his heritage. I believe in the class of 193 5, in your ability to make the world a better place to work in. Keep in touch with your friends, your classmates and your alma mater. Come back often and drink from the fountain. God bless you all! Arthur Delano Enyart, Dean of Men. OUR years in college! To a freshman, how long they seem, how filled with new and perhaps difficult tasks! To seniors, about to go off the deep end — how many happy memories of work and play in the Florida sunshine, will be recalled in the years to come. The time seems short in retro- spect, but I hope your lives will be happier and richer because of your years in Rollins. Those of us who have had the privilege of carrying on the high adventure of educa- tion with you, will hope for your continued help in making Rollins a living, growing ideal. Helen Guernsey Sprague, Dean of Women.

TO THE CLASS OF 1935 I OR four years it has been my pleasant • - duty to watch each of you grow in knowledge and wisdom. There is no need to tell you I shall miss you. Your constant cooperation with the Administration has been an ever-present source of strength. May it so continue in the years ahead. For four years it has been your privilege to share in the progress of Rollins. With the approach of your graduation may I ex- press the hope that Rollins will share in your success, for it is thus that a college achieves added prestige. Long may you continue to add to the glory of your alma mater. To each of you: Bon voyage and best wishes on your journey through life. Winslow S. Anderson, Dean of the College. w HAT can one do when one hundred words only are permitted to offer one ' s felicitations to the graduating class? You are to be congratulated, if through your college years you have developed the habit of independent thinking, have discov- ered the difference between mediocrity and fineness of life, have been able to concen- trate, to create things both beautiful and useful, to introduce the principle of loyalty and cooperation and to know the value of understanding comradeship. The best lessons learned from life are through experience, not through the theories and dogmas, and from real people rather than from textbooks and classroom lectures. Christian character is more important than scholarship, however desirable this may be, and faithfulness is greater than worldly success. Every blessing be upon you all. Charles Atwood Campbell, Dean of Knowles Memorial Chapel.
