- 1922 YACKETY YACK - (Harcltna Alumnt BEFORE we came to Carolina and caught the hreath of freedom in its air, took some part in the activity of the campus, and watched its life day by day, the attitude of the Old Carolina man was a puzzle to us. We couldn ' t understand the reverent way in which he handled the names familiar to the Hill. We couldn ' t understand his love for something he had left so long ago and seldom saw. Now we know why he loved Carolina, and now we know that this unfaltering devotion to her name has brought Carolina to her place in the State, to-day. The clean atmosphere of loyalty to the University has been handed down generation after generation until to-day it has penetrated into the very heart of Carolina, and the Alumni of the University are immor- tal, because their work is going forward and will con- tinue to go forward. Your names, Alumni, are dear to us. You live here in us just as you lived here years ago. We are domg our little to carry the work on and on, and hand down to others the intangible essence of real school love and spirit that you left when you attended your last classes, took your last examination, and walked out of the University to take the leadership of a great State and your place in the onward march of a great people.
