JoHN CRERALD BARRY, S. B. President of the College ADDRESS FROM PRESIDENT BARRY 'THE FLOWSHEET this year is planned to depict the romance of mining There is no career open to young men which lures with more adventurous prospects. Travel, out of the way places, new conditions, congenial companions, freedom from conventional restraint, possible wealth, all beckon. This is all true, but-3 From twenty-five years experience of the life may I sound, not a note of discouragement, but an important con- sideration. There is such a story book glamour that some are caught by it who do not weigh the payment early enough. Be sure that you have within yourself the resources to live alone, to take sole responsibility, to meet situations where there is no one to lean upon, and, upon the other hand, that you can mix with all sorts and kinds, your own nationality, foreigners, high and low, and find them good. There is variety, change, great interest and experience open to the man who because he likes enginneering is willing to endure hardships, unlimited working hours, loneliness, danger, and separation from family and urban life. It is not a life of play boy adventuring. The real romance of mining is hard Work, stimulating, invigorating, and broadening to the man who likes mining and creative efforts.

JOHN WILLIAM KIDD, E. E. Dean of .Mining, Metallurgy and Science ADDRESS FROM DEAN KIDD The session of 1933-1934 has offered encouragement to the En- gineering Division of the College. There is a decided improvement in the general outlook for Engineering students. A considerable number of requests are being received asking for the services of Engineers, and it is indeed a great satisfaction to know that nearly all of our Engineering graduates are employed in some line of work. Substantial improvements have been made during the past several months, and work of this nature is being continued. Some of the most needed of the improvements that might be mentioned are: new quar- ters for the Library, outside painting of nearly all of the College Buildingsg completion of the new building for athletics, CI-Iolliday Halljg the conversion of the Dormitory building into classrooms, ofhces, and other purposesg the construction of adequate drivewaysg and the improvement of the athletic field. We are hopeful that the many changes that have been made will induce the next Legislature to make provision, if possible, for some additions to the physical plant that we could not undertake with the limited funds at hand during the present bi-ennium.
