l 'W 1 Q 3 ' ,,, .1 12:24 NI Tennessee State College In the land of golden sunshine, By the C'umherlancl's fertile shore, Stands the school for greater service, One that we adore, Alma Mater, how we love thee! Love thy white and blue. May we strive to meet thy mandates With faith that's true. 'Many come to thee for knowledge, Come from East, North, South and XVest, For they know that thou doth offer Such Z1 rich bequest. Alma Mater, all thy children Worship at thy shrineg May the Cod of nations bless thee With gifts divine! Send forth sons both strong and valiant, Send forth daughters wise and true, Filled with hope and dauntless courage, Motives sane and true. Alma Mater, kindly mother, Smile on Tennesseeg May she lift her head toward heaven, Honor country, Cod and thee. Hymn -L. M. Averitfe, '18 Q9' new ,-5...

Foreword Lest we forget, we have compiled in the pages of this our first Ayeni, the images, impressions and factors working toward traditions of our school, which is still in its pioneer days. Looking backward we see what great strides we have already made through the noble influence of our president, Wfilliam J. Hale, whose efforts have led every student to see the value in being prepared to Think, Xvork, Serve. Gazing forward we catch a vision of a larger college plant-teachers' cottages, auditorium, gymnasium, stadium, agricultural and mechanic arts buildings-from which shall pour forth men and women whose souls harbor the ambitions of past generations and whose hearts are the springs of ideals for the new. rf d Zi T9

K l l h The pot of gold at the rainbow's end is the temple which houses patience, sincerity, I culture, gentleness, understanding and justice. Seekers of this pot of gold often leave Alma Mater without discovering the treasure, only to return in after years to pay tribute to the one who has shed her golden light over the lives of hundreds of students. The embodiment of these virtues is our Dean of Women, Mrs. M. L. Wilson, and it is to her that we lovingly dedicate this book. l W W Q Q M LQ W W LE! Q Q M W l l T l V SlL,:flQ l -0- QQ? E. . 1
