THE MAPLE LEAF, 1922, VOL. 8 (CLASSIC REPRINT)

Excerpt from The Maple Leaf, 1922, Vol. 8Tarry a moment, dear reader, and allow us to present this volume of the Maple Leaf to you - you who have profited through training at Goshen College, you who have lent loyal support to our Alma Mater, you who love Goshen College.Herein we have attempted to record the outstanding events of the school year 1921-22. In order to portray the school life fairly, we have attempted to give some recognition to everyone associated with the College. We have attempted to portray the humorous and incidental as well as the serious and ideal aspects of uor school life. As you peruse these pages you will notice that we have undertaken many new features and methods, we have accepted the burden of proof in a number of instances because we said to ourselves, We are going to publish the best Maple Leaf ever. Judge for yourself our measure of success, and the applicability to us of the phrase, Thy fate is the common fate of all. If you criticize, your criticism will be more fair and worth while if you tell us as well as others.Classmates, if, in the years to come, when our grips on life begin to weaken, these pages serve to recall fond memories that lend new inspiration, this volume will have served a purpose. If this volume helps to cement and maintain friendships, our efforts in compiling it will have been rewarded. If this volume fosters the Spirit of Goshen Col lege, success will have crowned our greatest aim.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
