'T^RADITION is but a meteor, •* which, if once it falls, can- not be rekindled Memory, once interrupted, is not to be recalled But the pages of this yearbook are a fixed lumin- ary of all that one year of college life contains. Annuals are faith- ful repositories, which may be awhile neglected or forgotten but when opened again review a pleasant and impressionable year at Taylor. SOCIAL SCIENCE, PSYCHOLOGY and EDUCATION BIBLE AND PHILOSOPHY SCHOOL OF MUSIC ATHLETICS FEATURES /'CENTURIES have passed: civilizations have waxed and wan- ^^ed: and mighty empires have been builded upon the mouldering ruins of a once noble race, but magnificent archi- tectural and artistic creations bear mute testimony, across the reaches of time, to that nobility of race. As we have endeavored to carve this memorial of an- other year at Taylor University; it has been with sincere desire that, in spite of the dust of years, it may remain a testi- mony to the nobility that characterizes the spirit of our beloved Alma Mater. i i ROBERT LEE STUART.

Where wc march has been determined by the purpose we have for our lives. Taylor has given the class of '37 a vision of life which makes us eager to lead others to a place of greater usefulness. As we contemplate the reality of graduation, wc realize a goal has been achieved. Our degrees signify more than credits earned. Within this short span of time our horizon has been broadened, our appreciation for friendships deepened, our zest for life increased and our faith in the Divine strengthened. Taylor has left an indelible stamp on our lives. ESTHER MAXINE BAKER, A.B. Hartford City. Indiana Majors: French and English. Life Work: Teaching.
