The President QT Kflifwwoi CHARLES H. CLOUD, S. J. HE editors of this volume remind me that the artist bookmakers of the medieval monasteries, Whom they would emulate, were wont to inlay costly gems on the covers of their more precious books. They ask me to take some rare thoughtfjewel from the University's thesaurus to adorn with it this opening page. So he it. Here in alcove I find a cluster of Colconda sparklers. The first gem is 'iHealth , the next is Hope , then comes Home , now Helpfulness , and lo, over there larger than a Cullinane gleams Happiness . Let us put Happiness on our first page. I would that it were mine to seal happiness on the door of your hearts. Let me at least assure you that it is seldom found in the glittering joys that allure children and vulgar minds. Beware of imitations. The genuine article is nowhere found save in a good conscience. Let us all secure and wear the gem of true happiness, if we do heaven will Want to let us in. CHARLES H. CLOUD, S. Page Seventeen

KNAPP, S. J. Dean of College 'il T is often difficult to speak of the thing in which we are most interested. I find it so when asked to say a few words about the College. As .1 man and boy I have known the College for the. past twentyffive years, A1 1 so a good deal is demanded when asked to write of it in a few words. TO say that the College has progressed during those years would he to speak jig a truism. It has become an active and forward looking school of a great and growing university. But amid all this progress , it has not changed in the friendliness and democratic spirit of its students,-in the intimate and unassuming relations 111 II of trust and encouragement and cooperation which exist between students and faculty,-fin the .wonderful spirit of selffsacrifice and complete devotion I 1 S1 to a nohle calling which animates its faculty. It has not changed its aims, its ideals, its high purposes,fthose things which are the true and only reasons for its existence,-it is still a Jesuit College, a Catholic College,+the College QI of Arts and Sciences of St. Louis University. if 5 THOMAS M.
