A GOessage to the Students Tv B. Cousins, ‘President The first issue of our annual is the historic document of the year. It has caught and shall hold the spirit of the first year of your college life in Kingsville. In the years to come those who follow in your tracks will be interested to see the faces and fin- ger prints that you have left here, and will be influenced by the traditions which you have begun. I am glad to believe that your foundation will bear safely the weight of a great superstructure. The strengthened purposes of the best of you, and the changing spirit of the rest of you give evidence of the presence of a whole- some atmosphere about the college which you yourselves have helped to create. Pour Corners Let us agree to build our institution upon these four rocks of imbedded truth: 1. Democracy—the Worth of the Individual. 2. Patriotism—Intelligent Belief in Our Country. 3. Philanthropy—the Brotherhood of Man. . Religion—The Father Ilood of God, as Revealed in His Son. (1) In all our relations the truth shall be established, and the best man shall win. Equal and exact justice shall hold the scales. Reward shall follow merit as effect follows cause. In our democracy the high quality of mind, heart, and life shall declare our aristocracy. This is true democracy. (2) Patriotism. We shall love our country because our forefathers carved her from the wilderness with sword and plow- share, that we might have freedom to worship God according to the dictates of conscience, and enjoy freedom under laws which we ourselves enacted and obey. Let our constitution and our laws stand beside the Ten Commandments in our high respect. Let us believe and teach that our government is the best govern- ment in the world. A patriot bases his love of country on his reason and keeps her laws, because an orderly procedure under law is the only safety, security and happiness of any people.
