Let us emancipate the student, and give him time and opportunity for the cultivation of his mind, so that in his pupilage he shall not be a puppet in the hands of others, but rather a self- relying and reflecting being. An anonymous poem: Take Time Take time for work, it is the price of success. Take time to think, it is the source of power. Take time to play, it is the secret of youth. Take time to read, it is the fountain of wisdom. Take time to be friendly, it is the road to happiness. Take time to love and be loved, it is the privilege of the gods. Take time to laugh, it is the music of the soul. Melvin L. Rubin Disease knows no holiday. William B.
