7o the Seniors of 1Q28 of the Central Wisconsin State Teachers College All Hail, dear Alumni,— when fair June is here; Alma Mater invites you each year To her time-honored banquet; Her motherly call Bids you come to her feast in the Hall. Remembering fondly our school songs of old Let us sing of the 'Purple and Gold;” Every voice let us hear in the tribute sincere To each class and this school we revere. Other tributes the class of 1928 will offer S. P. C. are those expressed through achievement. It is significant that the difficulties confronting this post-war era are being put squarely up to education for solution as the January 1928 Forum” presents in an engrossing brief for education, Current Trends in American Literature”. This article suggests educational salesmanship, an art devoutly to be fostered in behalf of Wisconsin's most productive investment, her gifted and trained teachers. As part of their duty to the youth thronging the class room, alumni of S. P. C., co-operating with each other, this college and the state, will do their bit to reverse conditions in the state which cause a greater per cent of increase in the cost of human wreckage than is shown by the per cent of increase in expenditures for Wisconsin's state teacher colleges. Alumni of S. P. C. will do their bit to secure a department of education at the nation's capital to help reverse the appalling contrast in the nation's expenditures for education and the stupendous cost of war. This is our task—not to make a living, but to make a life for the citizens of tomorrow, in whose service even the least achievement will be found to be as bread to the soul” and the perfect tribute to Alma Mater.

Dear Members of the Class or- 1928: It is hardly necessary to remind you. who have but now-completed your several courses, that College Years are blessed, golden years. Spent as they are amid surroundings that stress the finer things of life—companionship, intellectual endeavor, unfolding of personalities, spiritual growth, and social aspiration—they bring to maturity what you and your fellows will. In very truth They are your Alma Mater. Cherishing Them and Her. you can shed some rays of golden light by reflection at least, upon the lives of the countless many w ho have not know n and w ho never w ill know the quiet and the rich luxury of College Years. But you can transmit to them something of Their spell and charm if you will but regard it a privilege to share your best as only the truly educated and cultured can share w ith others those gifts w hich they have made their own. Again, in honor of Alma Mater, you can fire the youth of America with a determination to achieve College years and Alma Mater, too. These are the high hopes Wisconsin has of you. For these purposes Wisconsin has striven to create out of her wealth that living something—a Spirit or a Soul—which wealth can never buy—College Years and Alma Mater. I know you will fulfill Wisconsin's highest hopes, and match Wisconsin's earnest faith in you. Thus will you best honor Alma Mater. Thus will Your College Years live Immortal. Robert Dodge Baldwin 1928 Page sixteen
