We, the editors, to whom you have intrusted the task of making this book, hope it will prove worthy of you and of Ward-Belmont. No longer is the road before us the straight, gleaming road of years gone by, bordered with beautiful shrubbery and trees of pleasure grounds. The last Milestone points out a narrow and sinuous way, on either side of which there is a mass of humanity, shell-tattered in the greatest war in the history of the world, calling in distress for the dressing of their wounds, for food, for clothing, for shelter and for the restoration of this world to a peace and prosperity that will be everlasting. May we follow this road with self-confidence and determina- tion, fulfilling the ideals that have been awakened in us this year at Ward-Belmont. May the future Milestones of our journey on the Road of the Things Worth While mark the realization of the one thing we are preparing to render to all humanity Service.
