E ACH year the opportunity given to the President of Rhode Island State College by the Editor of the Grist to say a final word to the Senior Class becomes a serious challenge. My message this time is best couched in the words of the immortal Tennyson : “Yet I doubt not thro’ the ages one increasing purpose runs, And the thoughts of men are widen’d with the process of the suns.” This conviction in the inevitability of the growth of human nature is the conviction that you must maintain if you hope to accomplish the best in life. It is easy for one to be pessimistic. Particularly is this true of individuals of your age who have had inces- santly drummed into your ears during the past three years that you were inheriting a pretty bad world, that the present generation has made a mess of it, and that on you rests the burden of lifting the world from its doldrums. It is my feeling that you are inheriting nothing much worse than my generation inherited twenty-five years ago. It has been the way of age from time everlasting to tell youth that the present is rather bad and that only the young can improve it. Consider the attitude of the old woman and take heart: “The old today were the young yesterday. The young today will be the old tomorrow. Let us Pray! ” You are blessed with untold material benefits. You have conveniences that kings and Croesuses never dreamed of. And, best of all, you have all of these at prices available to the man of meager income. So keep your head high. If you don t get what you like, turn around and like what you get! RAYMOND G. BRESSLER TWENTY-FIVE
