Mr. J. Henderson Barr, artist of the Jones McDuffee and Stratton Corporation, Boston, American represen- tatives of the Wedgewood factory, has devoted the past eight months to research in the Fogg Art Museum of Harvard on this project with the result that the Rollins plates will be a contribution to American art. Domi- nating the center of the plate is the Knowles Memorial Chapel with the Annie Russell Theatre and the con- necting ambulatories in the background. Atop the general design is the new Rollins coat of arms which was designed by Ralph, Adams Cram. The inspiration for the border, which indicates the thought and labor that have been lavished upon the Rollins plate, is derived from Hispano-Moresque pottery which The 1935 Tomokan carried the following dedi- was one of the great achievements of Spain in the 15th cation : and 16th centuries, a period coincident with the dis- To covery, exploration and settlement of Florida by Ponce EDWARD FRANCIS WEINBERG de Leon, Hernando de Soto and Pedro Menendez.

Rollins Press, Inc. Will You Keep Faith With Alonzo Rollins?

More than one hundred years ago Alonzo Rollins was born on a little farm in a primitive part of Maine. Two years after his birth his father and his cousins and the other men in Lebanon Center built a Congregational Church on the hill one mile away. There, as he grew up, he heard sermons about Christian Education. When Alonzo was fifteen his village and all those nearby became tremendously interested in a movement. It resulted in the establishment of Lebanon Academy. Every- body became convinced of the value of educational training. Alonzo did not forget it when he went to Chicago to make his fortune. Fifty years ago when Alonzo Rollins was spending the winter season in Winter Park he heard more talk of Education. He was a man of few words but of effective action. He said little but he gave $50,000 which made possible the founding of a college, which the trustees, in grateful appreciation, named "ROLLINS." When he and Mrs. Rollins passed on, they left nearly a quarter of a million dollars, their entire fortune, to help President Holt with his "adventure in common-sense education." In this, the Semicentennial year of Rollins College, we former students are espe- cially reminded by the admirable example of Alonzo Rollins, that gifts to colleges are the most immortal of human investments. Through the ALUMNI FUND we former students of Rollins College have a channel through which our love for our alma mater and our loyalty may be expressed in a practical manner. The ideal is for each one of us to make an annual gift according to his or her ability. It is not important how much one gives but it is tremendously important that EACH ONE GIVE. If one gives 2c for each of the fifty years of the history of Rollins that would be $1 ; if you can afford 3c or a stamp for each of the fifty years, that's $1.50. Perhaps you will want to do more.

WILL YOU GIVE NOW AND KEEP FAITH WITH ALONZO ROLLINS'?
