S Q4 94' fev- ah T0 OUR FACULTY UWM apologies to Abraham Lincolnb il' 'I' C' A half-score less some odd years ago, our fathers dragged forth into this institution us new students, conceiving liberty yet dedicated to the proposition that all men are forced equally to assimilate their portion of that abstract quality called Learning. Now we are going to be engaged in a great problem, testing whether any person so conceived, and so dedicated, - can long endure. We are now at a great crisis in that .question and we want to dedicate a portion of our remembrance as. a hnahresting place for those who here gave their inspiration that this knowledge might live. lt is altogether htting and proper that we should do this--but. in a larger sense, we cannot consecrafe, we cannot dedicate, we cannot hollow this feeling of gratitude and friendship, those brave instructors, untiring and generous, who , struggled here have consecrated it far above our poor power to add or detract. The world may little note or long remember what we say here but it can never forget what they have done here. L It is for us, their pupils, A rather to dedicate ourselves now to the -unfinished work which they who . taught here have thus far so nobly advanced It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us, that from this honored faculty wetake increased devotion to that cause for which they here gave their full measure of devotion, that we here highly resolve that these teachers shall not have labored in vain and that this institution under our beloved Mr. Keeler land Miss F itzgeraldl shall continue to advance, - and that our acquaintance and friendship with the Faculty of our High School Years shall not perish from the memories of either of us. , .,,.,t.
