£f)e Hep — 1923 “(Clje Hep” Somewhere in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia, in a secluded spot, stood a mansion, bearing the name of Sylvan,” a structure of Grecian archtype, both magnificent and elaborate in construction. People had traveled great distances to gaze upon its pompous appearance. Many favorable comments were exchanged among the tourists, but the one that impressed me most was, You could not paint a lily. The inhabitant with his vast sum of money, who had done so much for the men of the world— for all these people who appreciated architecture—this man was loved and admired, and always held in high esteem by everyone, because he had cheerfully opened the doors of the Sylvan to all mankind. Many years have passed, and today the Sylvan mansion presents a picture of distress. The mansion has rotted and decayed, and the tourists cease to visit the place, which at one time was thought of as the picture of admiration. The owner had died some few years since, and due to poor management of others, the Sylvan had closed its doors, never to be opened again, thereby the Key of Architecture being lost. Many times there are rich men’s sons who are given opportunities to attend college, but, like many others that are given the same opportunities, they spend their fathers’ money foolishly, and finally are given the name of dissipators, thereby the Key of Knowledge being lost. Many a heated argument, which led to unkind words, and possibly blows, could have been settled peacefully, if only a book of reference had been sought, thereby the Key of Reference” being lost. The “Key of Architecture signifies our entering Temple University, and beginning to build the foundation for our work. The Key of Knowledge signifies our earnestness in acquiring our erudition. And the Key of Reference signifies the pleasant memories of our days in school. The Key, which is our reference book, should mean much to us, and I know it will afford many pleasant moments in later life. Our professors and classmates with whom we have rubbed shoulders will never be forgotten by the aid of Our Key.” Carroll W. Freeman. Editor's Note:—This book is The Key of 1923. The class of '22 gave this name to their year book for the first time. This year the name has been retained, for the year book of class ’23. Will not the oncoming classes retain this name, The Key, as a standard? 16

Cfjt l ej) — 1923 Say, “Mitch,” believe me. getting this class book together is no petty job, and, most of all, there seems to always be a few that do all the work Just the ones who never help put out the year book, are those who cry the most when the edition is published. This particular type surely are a benefit (?) to their class, and I’m sure with all their ambition they'll be a great help for the advancement of Chiropody. Yes, “Mickey,” I know exactly who you mean. The particular ones who were asked to help, and did not. Furthermore, I think the ones who did help us do our bit need the glad hand.
