President's Message
Hearty greetings end cordial good wishes
to students, both new and old. as you enter
the session 1838-39. Each year brings
brighter prospects. With the exception of
d crowded condition in instructional build-
ings long since inadequate to take care of
the number selecting Teachers College, we
start the year most promisingly. The
strongest faculty we have ever had is at
your disposal Increased facilities for liv-
ing are under way. A fine atmosphere
pervades the campus There remains only
a willingness on your part to take advan-
tage of what lies at > iur command. Your
present happiness and fu'ure well-being
are objects of our concern. I hope that,
when the session has ended, both you and
those who have sacrificed in order that you
niighl tin* here may be happy over your
achievements.
Cordially yours,
W. J McConnell
A few of you who read the Chat last year may
have noticed that your newspaper is wearing a
new dress this year. After considerable experi-
mentation this summer, yours truly and Mr. J. D.
Hall, director of the College Printing Shop, have
worked out a new type of headline for the paper
which we think may make the paper more attractive.
(juite naturally every new editor of the Chat
wants to outdo his predecessors, and a new head-
line is one of the means we have chosen to do it.
