A remarkable microscope which reveals to our eyes ob- jects only 500,000th of an inch in size. These are not dreamings for the future, but present day facts. They give but an inkling of the unpredictable things to come. For, just as our country's geographical frontiers were pushed forward a few gen- erations ago, the frontiers of world knowl- edge are being pushed forward today. Each gain in our accumulated knowledge, no matter how small or seemingly unim- portant, may be the means of showing us the way to stupendous achievements in the future. Great advances do not come by sur- prise. Man had to learn to write before he could learn to print, and it was 450 years after he learned to make type be- fore he ,could produce a machine to set type for him. Maxwell, in l867, proved the existence of electric waves, Hertz, twenty years later, produced, reflected, bent, and polarized them. lt remained for Marconi, in l886, to put them to practical use as the wireless waves that since l92l we have known as radio. ln all fields of knowledge the frontiers exist. Science, perhaps, has brought about the mosturevolutionary changes in our lives, but it remains for these changes to pene- trate to all fields. We study and work to learn about what has been done so that this knowledge may be used to draw away more curtains in the future. New frontiers are forever with us to be won.

TU THUSE HlHUllI35l Whom we have known so well through these four Temple years. With whom we have worked and played, shared joys and sorrows. Who came with us, as bewildered Freshmen, enthusiastically learning to be a part of a large University, ' Who gave us courage when the road seemed steep, Who now walk with us down the last road toward Commencement- May it be a true commencement, a new beginning Of lives finding increased richness and usefulness. Success to you, our Classmates, But, above all, Happiness!
