Geonje E. Martin President To him each one o us is a book which must be read to be understood. To read his students aright has always been his desire, and his speeches betray this yearning. 'Tis true his delightful humor has made us icrugh on many occasions, but we wonder sometimes if his humor is not allied to wistfulness . . . . if, instead of jesting or expounding truths, he would rather tell us that we are far dearer to him than all the other books that are. That we are Living Books .... with pages yet unturned, With climax hid and message undiscerned .... Each line of you reveals some promise new Of beauty, purity, and courage true, .books, whose plot unfolds so fast, May each new page be finer than the last. Page 23

Anna V. Jennings Librarian Harvard has its ivy; Yale, William Lyon Phelps; Nebraska, its scarlet and cream; but Kearney Slate Teachers has Anna Vivian Jennings. Not only is she a vital part of this institution, but she is, in herself, an insfifu ion. Under her touch a mere shelf of books has grown info a great library. Her frequent spiels', as she calls her speeches, her numerous trips, and her personal qualities are indicative of true leadership. Those who know her best, her boys , look to her as the French soldier revered Napoleon .... positive, dauntless, square, understanding .... these qualities they find in her. All of them, each her staunch supporter, declare they would work for nothing to work for her. Kearney's glorious tradition is she, ruling her literary empire. Page 22
