   GREETINGS TO ALUMNI.
s,  I —-—
on, Ky,  `» BY Pmasiinzur Mc\/uy. I _
 V_* Commencement takes place _Iune 2 to June 5 this year. The Baccalaureate I
  Ser1non is given on Sunday, Monday is Alumni Day and Tuesday will be de- I
it “."_ voted to the installation of the President. This last event is rather trying for {
 xy the new President, and he really needs the Alumni to help him out. So I {
  trust that they will come, bringing their wives and sweethearts to grace the Q
  occasion.  
 if ]ust now the University is at the turn of the roads. It is desirable in  
  making plans for the future that I should have the advantage of any counsel ,  
  or suggestion the Alumni care to give me. The relationship of the University  
  to the Commonwealth grows more important with the passage of each year. I
  To meet this requires a broad knowledge of conditions and clear views regard-  
 L. ing the part the University can fill. The friends of the University want it to ;
 I. live up to its heritage and its best traditions. .
*m’iY wl  i` The call of the Government in this time of stress is more and more for  
 ~_ trained men and women. The University must keep its halls hlled with the `  
:  f recruits needed to occupy the responsible places of business, government and E
 ‘ education. The Alumni can arouse the youth of their community to go on  
;   with their education. This is in no small way a patriotic duty.  
i To the Alumni, I extend good wishes for the future and congratulations  
1  _·_ on the past.

    `* _»   The Service Flag of tl1e University with its galaxy of 474 stars was unfurled g \
E   _     ._ ,   before the faculty and student body in chapel, February 22, 1918. The presenta—  _  
        tion of the Hag by the girls of the Department of Home Economics was a fea- _ (
  1   `   ture of the patriotic celebration of that day, which is recalled as one of the most
S3}? _·   brilliant in the history of chapel programs. In the three months that have
    ‘   passed since the flag was accepted there have been 141 stars added, and in addi»
  `   tion to tl1e gold star, placed in the center in memory of Stanley Smith, who  _ 1
4   H   was a student of the College of Law last year, and was reported lost in foreign  _ j
y   ’   waters in September, there will be added one in memory of Frank Codec, of "  \
  ;= the class of 1915, who was killed in the Dardanelles, and a third for Lewis _
  »   Herndon, who was killed while on engineering duty at the front early in the _
  spring.
  The banner is hanging in front of the windows on the platform in chapel
  ‘ i and extends from the ceiling to the Hoor. The stars are blue, arranged to form 1
  e . ~ _ tive large stars, one in the center and one on each corner on a background of
  white and surrounded by a border of red. Stars mounted on the Hag since it
Fix;] _` was presented have been arranged in bars at the bottom and top. Miss Louise

· In appreciation of the gift a trustee of the University said; T   I
` "The Department of Home Economics has endeared itself to the faculty, Y _ I

University the huge Service Flag with its 474 stars. One of those stars is l
; burnished with living gold. To gave upon it brings a hush, the heart fills and ` i
we know that we have paid our first sacrifice in the person of Stanley Smith.
‘ We are proud of all the other stars, and we know full well that each representa-
' tive is ready to carry the burden on, and on, and on, and yet it is not the
i purpose of those stars to remind us of the honor of each representative, for . .
what has each one done other than his duty ,an
