CHINOOK 1920 Administration M OKE than a thousand sons of the State College of Washington were enlisted in the army and navy of the United States, during the World War. Many of these young men fought on the battlefields of France, and t hose who did not were eager to go. Thirty-five or more of them have stood at attention for the last time. They have paid full price for victory, and it is fitting that their part in the great struggle should be commemorated. Naturally, it is our desire that something permanent and useful he erected at the State College to help immortalize the memory of these men. In this wish let us realize that the boys who have gone will not he made greater by anything we can do or say. We are the beneficiaries of their sacrifices, and it is for us to be worthy in though, word and deed of what they have done. If today we look out upon the world with eyes that see and understand the world’s problems; if in our outlook we firmly resolve that in the future there shall be justice among men, then we shall do honor to our heroes who have given their all in the great struggle. Furthermore, it is only by courageous living that we shall keep awake in our own lives the memory of our student-soldiers who paid living tribute on the battlefields of Europe. Otherwise all that we can do or say will be as nothing. The burden that today rests upon educated men and women is a heavy one. They must see the world’s problems more clearly than anyone else, and they must resolve that in the coming years peace and democracy, for which onr boys died, shall become a reality. Justice and freedom shall not he idle words. Baffles not of life and death, but of principles, are to he waged by men and women of the State College. They must be able to see injustice, and to fight it, in order that real democracy shall rule in the world. E. O. HOLLAND, President. Nineteen
