Behind us are the long hours of concentrated effort and diligent ap- plication which are the prerequisites for induction into the proud army of W'harton Evening School graduates. This is no time to relax, however. Modern business has no place today for one who would rest on his laurels. We are endeavoring to win for ourselves a place in a world which moves at a tremendously rapid pace, a world which already is well-peopled with educated men and women. VV e have merely equipped ourselves with the weapons to give battle. We can consider ourselves fortunate in that most of us have already come to grips with the problems presented by the battlefield we have chosen. It was the recognition of our own inability to cope with these problems that prompted us to devote so many of our evenings to the study of the facts and Figures which have been assembled concerning them. It is appropriate that we express to the faculty our sincere appreciation of the patience, under- standing and constant willingness to help which they evidence at all times. We recognize that it is no easy task to instill knowledge in minds oft times dulled by the toil of the day. We regard them, not merely as instructors, but also as friends who have guided us in the proper direction. Let us, therefore, enter the struggle with all the vigor and enthusiasm we possess. Opportunities abound in virtually every walk of life to demon- strate that we, not those who have gone before, or those who will come after, are the individuals whose names will be inscribed on the pages of history as the leaders of our generation. Let us seek out these opportunities, and enrich the world with the benefits of the knowledge we have come to possess in these past years. To the victor belong the spoilsf' But the victor must be determined that what he has won will never be taken from him. Only through constant alertness and never-ceasing perseverance can we be certain that the goal which we have reached today is an impregnable outpost on our march to SUCCESS. JAMES' P.

The realization that graduation from the Even- ing School is in sight and that our formal education under the direction of the University will soon be complete, should serve as a twofold reminder. First, the goal for which we have spent years in preparation has been reached and the seemingly endless series -of excursions to Logan Hall, at least for most of us, has ended. Second, and far more important, should be the realization that the well- educated man is the man whose education never ceases. Education takes many forms. In elementary schools much of it is in the form of memory work such as multiplication tables, spelling, and gram- mar. High schools depart from this somewhat, and algebra, literature, science and other subjects receive broad attention. On the University level, however, attention is directed to fundamental principles and to the development of reasoning. Fundamental principles are those which have stood the test of time and upon which entire sciences are based. They have been built up by devoted scholars and eminent practitioners using standards of work. methods of accurate thought, and techniques with which the student must be familiar in order to appraise his own endeavors. The student must know where the frontiers of knowledge at present are, and what lies behind them, before he attempts to push those boundaries forward. The development of reasoning is the practice of the scientific method. The method proceeds by ex- perimentation, by making a disinterested search for truth, by obtaining facts and observing where they lead. Imagination leads in constructing the hypo- thesis and it is then surveyed from all angles to see if it works. i-f'f'l 'fikbfi Education on the University level, then, can give the student knowledge and reasoning ability, the product of which is tolerance and balanced judgment. Tolerance, so they will not condemn an idea because it is new or because it is old, and balanced judgment which is the real beginning of wisdom. If education never ceases for the well-educated man, and our formal education is ending, what can we do to keep the avenues of learning open? There are several answers. Une, is to realize the narrowness of the field we have chosen. The fields of philosophy, religion, political science, and literature are relatively un- explored territory for most -of us and should pro- vide an excellent complement to the principles of accounting and finance already acquired. Entire Departments and Schools in this University are devoted to Medicine, Law, Engineering and other curricula and we are but a small segment of those who leave this institution yearly with degrees or certificates in one of the many branches of study. Two, we can continue to use the educational facilities available to us, either by returning to the Evening School for further classes or by frequent use of the libraries for research and study. Three, we can use in our everyday life the rea- soning processes developed here. We can formu- late mature judgment in the light of changing con- ditions. All of us have seen, in the past ten years, our own nation go from a peaceful existence to a state of all out war effort and then return to the task of restoring our country to peace only to be disturbed by difficulties, domestic and foreign. Foreign aid and armed preparedness require con- siderable thought and expense. Such transitions are not made easily, either as a nation or as an individual, and it is certain that further changes will take place in the future. Mature judgment based on knowledge and the use of reason en- hances our value as citizens. businessmen, and in- dividuals, for a nation is only as good as its people. If these three broad outlines are followed, the term well-educated will take on real meaning. and not only shall our time in the Evening School have been invested profitably, but our entire lives as well.
