A LEGEND, according to Webster — the almost uncontested source of all ■ ' - definition — is A story of a remarkable kind. Legenda, the Latin scholar adds, means to be read. It is, perhaps, a bit pedantic to cling to the letter of a definition, but Legenda, this year, has chosen that policy. The story of a remarkable kind is that of the Class of 1939, which is, in itself, not so very different from that of any other class. But in setting down the Legenda in a form as complete as it was possible to make it, there has been included the broader and more timeless story of many years at Wellesley. The traditional elements of 1939 ' s history extend far into the past, and in it, by inference, may be found a hint of the future. The story is not remarkable for its details, many of which are ordinary. If it bears the stamp of the unusual, it is in its universality, for in the history of one class are woven indications of the influences of all the others. Legenda is now truly to be read, containing as it does, the recorded memories of people . . . scenes . . . sunlight on the Tower . . . moonlight across the snow. The printed word is, perhaps, more reliable than the individ- ual memory. Legenda is intended to be a record of the memories of a com- munity of people, into which each person may read recollections which the words call up in his mind. The pictures, taken in action and not posed, are designed to supplement the words; to sharpen the images and the ideas which it is hoped the text will convey. According to the scholar ' s interpretation, then, Legenda has become A remarkable story ... to be read.
