© THE© BRAND To the Students of the Sul Ross State Normal College: Iii olden times he who took a city reached the acme of military achievement. The city then was the center of in¬ dustry, the political base, and the residence of the king. To storm and capture such a place was to achieve what modern nations accomplish in winning great wars. Such enterprises were the business of the mighty and the great, the game of kings. When the ancient philosopher attempted to measure the intellectual and moral achievement of those who had acquired control of their own emotions and their wills, he used the language then best understood, and declared that he that ruleth his spirit is greater than he that taketh a city, lie could have used no stronger terms to express the im¬ portance of self-control and self-reliance. Our aim for this, the second term, has been to develop a student body of young men and young women w ho could and would decide for themselves, when they face alternatives. We have hoped for a group of young people who would accept the re¬ sponsibility of choosing for themselves, and would refuse to ask others for anything except light and information which w ill aid them in their choosing. I am happy to say that you have met our highest hopes in this matter, and I consider this your great achievement for the year. © © r — R. L. Marquis.
