T5o the Qlass of 1930: TOU are now entering upon your chosen life's task. You are the Senior class of a college, leaving the walls of your Alma Mater for the broader walk of life. Your past has been the preliminary to the profession which will now become your life-work. All your motives up to now have been apprehended by your parents or faculty; all your thinking has been influenced by them, and each desire has been carefully contemplated and moderated at their judgment. Now the time has come when your last step toward total independence is to be taken. How can you hope to take sides with what is best in and for the world? There is only one way and that is—service. The only true hapiness lies in a service of such a type as will accomplish for the betterment of our fellows. Leon A. Halpern. 15
