THE V.S.A. ALUMNI ASSOCIATION (Continued from Page 18) Now that the School has maintained a steady growth there should be little difficulty in going forward to greater things than have been hitherto possible. A seed fair and field crops com¬ petition are being planned for 1930 and January of 1931, when the actual showing of grain is expected to take place at V. S. A. Such competitions may be of great assistance to us as Alumni members and to agriculture in general, and your co-operation is solicited. Pay your membership dues for the ensuing year, but best of all, let us have your assistance and your moral support, even if you do not contribute the small annual fee. Emerson has said, “Hitch your wagon to a star,” and I ask you to label the Alumni Association your star and to get behind its efforts. A cordial invitation is extended to all who are eligible for membership (those who have at any time attended the School) to join up and to help in putting the V. S. A. Alumni on the map. The door is even open to those who know the ad¬ vantages of the institution in which we have a great interest, and who are imbued with the spirit of service as typified in our aims and objects as before mentioned.
