general we also wish to express our sin
ce,c gratitude, tor the interest you have
taken In us and for the support you have
given us in our undertaking upon
various occasions.
You have Literally patronized our con-
certs and out door games and in various
other ways shown your good will to-
ward US. 1t may have seemed a trihe to
you. but to us such TRIES have been OF
the greatest importance.
You may oon have forgotten US, for
gotten that you ever favored us with
your assistance in any way, but we will
remember it.
Many a time hereafter, I know, will
the thoughts of what DEBORAH and her
citizens have been to us come upon us
and make our journey of life more pleas
ant and happy. Nav the friendly feel
ing. which you have manifested towards
the college during our stay here always
be maintained, and may prosperity also in
the future attend you. With these wish
es, citizens OF DEBORAH, we bid you fare
well.
Fellow classmates. the happy years
that We have passed here together are
at an end. For the last time we are as
semoled as students of Luther College.
Some OF us may never meet again, but
we know that wherever we may go we
VIII never meet a better friend than a
class mate from this institution.
For years our aim has been the same,
our Joys and griefs. our duties and privi-
ieges the same. Hereafter our interests
and aims may greatly differ. but let us
always remain loyal sons of our Alma
Mater and remember that we have
chosen a motto which commands us to
live well and show by our lives that the
years spent in labor at our desks have
not been in vain. but that we have made
intellectual investments that will be per
manent and enduring.
Fellow classmates, bid you farewell
And thou who for years hast sheltered
and fostered US with motherly care -
may the principles for which thou
standest never be diverted from thee;
may the light that emanates from thy
past history cast its shining rays upon
thy sons In the future, that thou mayest
continue to be a power for good among
our people. With thy oft.quoted poet:
Thy mem'ry dear we'll cherish
Aud w ICCOllcCt thy care,
That thy fame may perish
Is the burden of u prayer.
May our thoughts to thee oft turn,
When we're absent far away,
May we then sincerely yearn
To return to thee some day.
Our Alma Mater, we bid thee
Adieu.
