It Worthwhile? College life has manifold contacts. It can be the most constructive and enjoyable period of a person ' s life. College lite mean; companionship, and companionship means partnership on equal and triendly terms. This in turn means membership in a common society, mutually helpful and co-operative living, a communal living but not necessarily a communistic living. Living on a high plane for four years must be a character building process. Psychologically our nervous systems grow in the direction in which they are exercised. This is education that leads to more education. It is creative and makes for a unified personality. Four years in college provide the best opportunity for growth, enlarged and enriched experiences, for happiness and for the development of a character that will stand in good stead throughout life. Sincerely yours. FRANKLIN PIERCE MANHART B.A., M.A., D.D., LL.D. Dean of the School of Theology, Professor of Church History and Systematic Theology Missionary Institute, 1875; B.A., Gettysburg College, 1877; M.A., Uni- versity of Pennsylvania, 1896; D.D., Gettysburg College, 1899; Head Deaconess Motherhouse, 1896-04; LL.D., Wittenburg College, 1925; Present position, 1904. Our founder, Benjamin Kurtz, was an able, divine, and an eloquent preacher, an ecclesiastical statesman, and an ardent patriot and humanitarian. With clear insight into man ' s nature and needs he projected an institution to prepare persons for intelligent and helpful service in the home land and in other lands to the rims of the earth. It is the glory of Missionary Institute and Susquehanna University that so many trained here made real the far vision of life and service of its great founder. Vivat, c reseat, et floreat! Respectfully yours, Page Twenty-four

I send good wishes to ' the many Susquehanna women and men whom, to meet, has been a pleasant experience and, to know, a happy memory. Our intimate and constant life together has, perhaps, influenced my own ideals and philosophy much more than it has that of the students. Cordially, E. EDWIN SHELDON Mus.M. Director of Conservatory of Music Alma College, 1S92; Baldwin Wallace College, 1894; Oberlin Conserva- tory of Music, 1895-98; New England Conservatory of Music, 1900; Instructor, Toledo Conservatory of Music, 1900-01; Director of Susquehanna University Conservatory of Music, 1903-10; Director, Lebanon Valley College Conservatory of Music, 1910-20; Cornell Summer Work, 1918; Graduate ' of New York University Summer Music School, 1921; Present position, 1920. Susquehanna University Conservatory of Music has a welcome for college men and women who would make their lives richer by intelligent study of the Art of Music as well as those students who would make Music a profession. The college man or woman who has had no contact with or experience in the fine arts has fallen short of a well rounded education quite as much as the musician who has not made contacts with the best thought of people of other walks of life. Dr. James Francis Cooke in his recent address in Seibert Chapel cited many persons among professional musicians who have served with distinction in governmental and business positions of responsibility. Everything that God has made was created ' in tune ' — the voice of man, the whisper of the wind, the laughter of the little brooks and the throb of the great ocean. Nature is harmony, the maintenance of right relations between every living thing. — E. L. Good. Respectfully, Page Twenty-five
