THE HISTORY OF WASHINGTON COLLEGE (VOLUME 153) EACH year another Pegasus is added to the lengthening row of volumes wherein are perpetuated the activities and achievements of the students of Washington College. In after years this book will be taken from the shelf, and college days will be re-lived from its pages, for it records the who and the what of campus life. There is another book we have all been creating — another volume whose first page was written early in September, and whose last line will not be finished until the sun sets on Commencement Day. It is the invisible but none the less real encyclopedia of Washington College ' s true and complete history — Vol. 153 of the great unfinished work whose first editor was Dr. William Smith, and whose initial installment was produced in 1782-1783. We are now completing our current volume of this eternal masterpiece. No one has been able to avoid writing his line, or paragraph, or chapter in it. The administration, the faculty, the students — all, as individuals and as organized groups have penned their entries. Because the record is invisibly written, there is nothing that can now be deleted. It has all happened, therefore it is a part of history. Years may change our perspective on some things when we look back upon the work we have written. We may wish that we had constructed some of our paragraphs differently, or that some pages could be expunged completely. Some few we might wish to hurry over and never see again. But memory is tenacious. Unlike the sun-dial, which marks only sunny hours, history holds everything. The moving finger writes; and having writ. Moves on; nor all your piety nor wit Shall lure it back to cancel half a line. Nor all your tears wash out a word of it. But we all know that the golden pages outnumber the leaden ones in the year ' s record. There are pages which will be radiant in our memories while memory lasts. And, through the careful, thoughtful enterprise of those who hold their college dear, the final effect of our annual volume of 1934-35 will merit our eternal remembrance, and we shall have justified the motto we placed upon its flyleaf when we opened the record last September — Together we go forward! My thanks to all who are working with me to make this come true. For there will be another volume to create in 1935-36, more brilliant, we hope, than even this one. Volume 153 is closing; volume 154 will open soon. Let us write it fair. Gilbert W. Mead.
