For if he did, everyone by this time E gj must be fairly giddy thinking of the many portentous events about to happen: first and most important is graduation. Of course you Seniors are not anxious to leave the old school; but you are glad, for no doubt a great curiosity is upon you to know what gifts the old world holds in store. Hut there are a few things I would recall to you who are about to leave; being with you for four years, I feel I may presume upon your patience once more. Keep your scholarship high, watch your reputation, develop vour character. Social prestige will come, athletic prowess will come, success will come in the same measure that you impress your ability and your square toed stand for principle, wherever you may he. Remember that the faculty of reaching out and touching one’s neighbor, where he really lives, is the greatest of human achievements. Wishing you success in whatever you undertake, I am Most sincerely yours. C. G. Salt. Pqiic Thirteen

We see the little and the big mistakes that we have made and we wish that we could rectify them: they were not so bad: most likely wen we to do it all over we might commit more grievous ones. Now look at the other side of the proposition, have we individually or as a class accomplished anything worth while during our short stay here? Individually?
