fur Wm' I see the sun rising on strong. cheerful. enthusiastic and courageous youth who are striving to promote an institution that will make national headlines in the news- paper of time. Utica Institute, a school of culture, an example of rapid progress and achievement. and a place of brotherly love is an institution that started with this major purpose- to train youth who will uplift the economic. educational and moral standards of America. At this time, the staff of the l955-1956 Uticanite has presented this Annual to give you a vicarious school day at Utica, and to allow you to compare the first head- line- Utica Institute Enrolls Fifteen Students with the present headline- Utica Institute Enrolls Six Hundred and Twenty Five Students. The first leading articles included statements concern- ing one teacher with one or two books in a one room shack. The last leading article included information about forty teachers and a plant valued at more than S750.000.00. The newspaper of time has revealed a great change at this institution. The sun is rising higher and its beam is glowing brighter, so stop with me---for a few moments---please - - - and view the sons and daughters of Dear Ole Utica - - -. s M 4 ,A
