O F CAROLINE M HENDRICKS DEAN WOMEN fit such a time it is fitting to pause in solitude and contemplate the achievements attained to date. Fortunate indeed is the scholar who conscientiously concludes that the profits realized justify the costs involved from the standpoint of both the material and the spiritual values in life. To those students, we offer congratulations and say continue on with the determination to build of your life even a greater structure for service in human welfare. Less fortunate are those students who, because of either internal or external forces, have not reaped a similar degree of satisfaction To them we say, be not discouragod. but rather fortify yourselves with a greater determination to succeed. To all students of the Utah State College we say. have a purpose in life, diligently seek knowledge, have faith in yourselves, have a will to do, then surely your reward shall be the richness that comes from living a full life.

Twauty-loui frank l west FACULTY DEAN OF Any amount ol performance by a student in dramatics, do-bating. athletics, or any other sort of student activity, as valuable as such participation is, will not put a student where he can manage a business and make it pay, teach a class well on a subject about which ho knows nothing, or build a bridge that will stand up. It still remains that the study of books, the performance of laboratory experiments, the lecture and discussion in class rooms, constitute the main business of any college. This work is very well done at the Utah State Agricultural College, because the Faculty is well trained, most of them are very fine teachers, and the students are putting forth an honost effort. We are also proud of the achievements of our toams and the high type of social life and conduct of our students.

The environment of plant life consists of a combination of soil, wator. and climatic factors Upon plant life, animal life is largely dependent. It is upon both plant and animal life that man dopends for his basic requirements— food, shelter, and clothing. The Agricultural Experiment Station seeks basic facts pertaining to soil, water, climate, plant growth, animal nutrition, inheritance, insect pests, diseases, and other related topics as a guide to their utilization by man in his own behalf.
