Message from Dr. Fisher OLLEGE LIFE: How vivid and pleasing are the recollections that come before us, as in later life, we live over the scenes of those days. A community of interests, bound together by one purpose, similar hopes, and one goal. Associations that lead to friendships, which linger through life. The many incidents that foster inspirations for college and class spirit. For self denials, application, and study, there comes the recompense of joy when the final ordeal is satisfactorily passed; the insignia of our success being valued according to how it was merited. “The heights by great men, reached and kept Were not attained by sudden flight, But they, while their companions slept. Were toiling upward in the night.” Alma Mater: Her reputation is yours and whatever enhances her prestige, but contributes to your own. Here hopes and success reside in the Alumni. Emulate the principles upon which she is founded and exemplify in your life the spirit and character of her founder, who was your friend and benefactor. In all things com-mendable strive to excel, and seek to shine in your profession, thereby honor your Alma Mater. This is a duty you owe to yourself and to the institution. “He who is false to present duty breaks a thread in the loom, and will find the flaw when he may have forgotten the cause. Business Career: Around which circle your hopes and for which your arduous preparations are but the foundation. Have a vision but do not lose sight of the professional aspect of your venture. In your plans for today, have regard for tomorrow, remembering that the road to success is sometimes rough and slow and often requires patience and sacrifice. Ingratiate yourself into the confidence of your patrons, establish a reputation for honesty and efficiency. This once achieved, your success is assured.. If the sole ultimate of your endeavors is in what you may accumulate, it is sordid and selfish. Seek to please and help others and the material will come as a natural consequence. The whole problem of life is one of service. No matter how great the attainment, you are still the servant of some one or body above you; even the highest position in our national commonwealth, the President of the United States is a servant of the public. The welfare of society has its just claims upon you, and as one has said “he serves God best who serves his fcllowman. “Let us then be up and doing. With a heart for any fate; Still achieving, still pursuing. Learn to labour and to wait.” Finally, let me enjoin upon you: love the nation of which you are a part, be a good citizen in every respect, noting the fact that “righteousness exalteth a nation, but sin is a reproach to any people. i Seven
