AN APPEAL BY THE PRESIDENT OF THE ALUMNI 



ASSOCIATION 



/4luiiini: 



No matter how many years have passed since you obtained the coveted sheep- 

 skin from our institutuion, no matter what position you now occupy m this busy 

 world, the education which you have received at our college has been instrumental 

 in making your struggles easier and in establishing yourself in a firm position in 



life. 



This fact alone should and must be sufficient to remind you that you owe a 

 debt of gratitude to your Alma Mater, that you are under an obligation to the 

 institution whence you derived the means for making your life a better one to 



live. 



How can you best discharge this obligation ? There is only one way to do it. 

 It is a simple and an easy one : Take an active interest in the affairs of your col- 

 lege and lend your assistance, both moral and financial, to its Alumni Association ! 

 That is all we ask of you ! The Alumni Association was founded primarily to 

 advance the interests of the college, therefore, by supporting the Alumni Asso- 

 ciation you are directly supporting the college. 



America, just now, is demonstrating that it can be devoted to, and fight for, 

 an ideal. "Service" is the key-note of the day. And so I appeal to you to serve 

 during the coming year in the ranks of our Alumni members. Serve in so far as 

 generosity is concerned, serve in so far as steady attendance at our meetings is 

 concerned. There is much to be done and workers are needed. I have a number 

 of plans which if carried out would advance the interests of the college in the 

 coming years ; but I am powerless to put them into execution if your support and 

 help are lacking. 



I will take the liberty of addressing you again by the medium of this Journal 

 and ask respectfully that you will give careful attention to what I will have to 

 say. Fraternally, (Signed) Curt P. VVimmer, 



President of the Alumni Association.
