Mayhap it will help these memories to grow ever stronger and the friend ships dearer, as the years roll by. Through its pages we pledge our loyalty to our Alma Mater. There are teachers who arouse in the souls of their pupils high ideals and an honest desire to work for their attainment. When in after years, the pupils who were thus inspired analyze the influences which have shaped their lives, they say, "It. was a teacher who made me what I am. All rever ence to her." To such a teacher is this book dedicated. A generous natural endowment, vigorous youth, high courage, and the stir of aspiration in the soul are a group of gifts from heaven which make their possessor rich indeed. Only as these gifts are invested in the service of others will they bring their possessor the ever abiding assurance: "Well done, good and faithful servant; thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things."
