ANNOUNCEMENT It matters not what banners we unfurl, what mottoes we uplift, what purposes we applaud. — not these, but what we do. what we have done, constitutes the record of accomplishment and determines the reward. The Stout Institute has ever held to high ideals and must continue so to do to insure success. Yet high attainment, the record of accomplishment, is the solid foundation upon which this institution must henceforth build toward greater and still greater success. The graduates of this college teaching in virtually every state in the country, are everywhere doing a work which is so thoroughly creditable that the good name of Stout is well known beyond national boundaries and is being raised to high- er and higher levels in educational standards. The Stout Institute, if it does not now occupy that proud place, must soon stand at the top in the preparation of teachers for the various fields for which it offers its services. To each outgoing class we look for support in this avowed ambition. Originality and earnest effort, backed by the training received here. — a willingness to do more than is demanded — will insure this enviable position to The Stout Institute. Burton E. Nei son. President.
