16 PORTUGAL “The Lisbon Association has just obtained a decision front the courts stating that the sale of Bibles is no crime! A new day is dawning for the Young Men ' s Christian Association in Portugal. Rudolph Horner, ’94, Lisbon ITALY “As an alumnus of old T. S. let me assure you that my heart warms when 1 think of the ‘dear old school.’ You who are shortly to join us on the held of action and to whom we eagerly extend a comrade’s welcome will quickly realize that you have entered upon a soldier’s life; a life of intense strain, trying your powers to the utmost; but it’s glorious fighting, a battle which fasci- nates, which holds you with a marvellous, subtle power. Men, stick to it. Keep the motto ever before you, ‘Never give up.’” M elvin B. Rideout, ’93, Rome SWITZERLAND “My warmest greetings and sincere good wishes to Alumni and students for their continued usefulness. M ay God bless every one abundantly with high spiritual success.” Baron Von Staarck, ’89, Geneva FRANCE “I am with you always in thought, mind, and spirit, THE MASSASOIT as every other faithful son of old T. S. Love to all. Cheer up. Hooray for old T. S.” “ Bonnie ” Chari.es Bonnameux, ’04, Paris ENGLAND “Hearty good wishes to the graduating Class of ’08 from the British Associations. There is nothing like being abroad to make one appreciate the privileges of the home-land. Wherever your lot may be cast, do your utmost to serve your fellowmen, and you will have noth- ing to regret; for in so doing, you are serving the Master. Work spiritually, mentally, physically, and cheerfully in His service.” Chas. E. Heywood, ’98, Birmingham, England RUSSIA “ 1 congratulate you. Class of ’08, upon the oppor- tunity you have had, and still enjoy at old T. S. Your appreciation of the School and its influence upon your life, will ever increase and become a greater factor with you as the years go by, and distance removes you from the dear old place. The memories of the Training School are a continual inspiration to me in my work in Russia. Greetings to my Alma Mater, the members of the Faculty, and the Cl ass of ’08.” E. L. Moraleer, ’04, St. Petersburg
