Phoenix Hall Swi,er HaU Dedication To the descendants of thou Scottish people, both her - anil in their native land, who, having been driven into the Highland wilder-new ) , sought self-government by forming themselves into clan which bound each man to his chief by the most reliable of traits, loyalty and obedience, and who, in realising the struggle their ancestors had. have ingrained in them the hope of keeping freedom and independence. We dedicate this Tattler In reading of those Highlanders of long ago. we understand that, though rugged and barely civilized, they had an unquenchable spirit in striving for those things they thought right. This spirit had a part in the foundation of our own nation and b the spirit which will make the great men of tomorrow. In this era of modern civilization, a time of ceaseless changes, we hope that this intense patriotism and loyalty mny remain untainted and unmarred. — 5 — N 1 N ET E E N THIRTY-SEVE N
