MILESTONES OF MEMORY T. HE FLIGHT of time brings us again to the recording of a year ' s ac- tivity, crystallized in the form of our Yearbook — the permanent preser- vation of all that Washington College life has provided during 1935-36. Like the sundial which marks only sunny hours, the Pegasus re- flects the brighter side of campus life. The shadows of classroom duties, of tests, of weary hours of study, and of examination — these are not here. We like to feel that the sunny hours have far outnumbered the shadows in the history of 1935-36. It has been an active, cheerful, suc- cessful year — a pleasant journey forward along the ever-lengthening high- road of Washington College history. Materially, the year has, of course, been distinguished by the gift of the Trustees of the Hodson Trust, insuring the erection of the new building which will soon rise on the campus. The Class of 1936 will see its foundations rise. Their academic successors for many generations will enjoy life within its walls. Student organizations both athletic and non-athletic have contributed greatly to a happy and successful year. The general social life has been broadened and deepened. From the classrooms and laboratories has ema- nated a spirit of industry, intelligent inquiry, and appreciation of the things learned. These are the landmarks which everyone will remember. These are the measures of progress day by day along the upward trail we are fol- lowing. The year draws to an end. It is time for the Pegasus, that symbolic winged steed, to take flight again, as he does each year. His point of departure is marked by this milestone of memory — this volume of rec- ords and recollection which the 1936 editors hav e assembled and to which we have all contributed the things we have done and the lives we have led since we came together last September. To the editors, our congratulations for this book. To all whose activities are recorded here, our thanks for the year ' s events. To Wash- ington College and its oncoming classes, our best wishes and hopes that their progress will continue to be along the highroads marked, as 1936 is marked, by the permanent milestones of pleasant memory.
