Member of IntercoUeglate Newspaper Association News Editor This Issue— FRIDAY, OCTOBER 14, 1921 WELCOME ALUMNI In behalf of the students and faculty, we welcome every Penn State alumnus who is returning for the Alumni Day celebration. We want you here with us and hope that you will find this Alumni Day the most enjoyable that we have ever had. It is one of the biggest of Penn State holidays and this year special importance is added because of the inauguration exercises. We want yob to feel at home here with us as you were in your undergraduate days. Slip off the cares of the outside world and remember only that you are a Penn State man and that you are here for a wonderful celebration. The college since you were last with us has made some progress toward its goal as the chief institution of higher learning in the state of Pennsylvania. We have a definite program before us and in it the alumni play a big part. It includes the education of the people of the state to the needs of this state institution, and it will also provide opporunities for the alumni to assist in a more substan tial way. But whatever your part in the destiny of Penn State is to be, advertise the fame of Penn State among the people of the state and the nation. Make its name to be revered and respected as the college that has that indefinable Penn State spirit, the will to do that triumphs over all obstacles. You can help Penn State in many ways and we are confident that as loyal alumni you will perform this priv ileged duty. The college extends to the many distinguished guests who are here (or the Inauguration ceremonies, a most hearty welcome. The keys of the institution are yours and for these few days we want you to feel that we are at your service. We hope that you will discover here the spirit of Penn State, as well as see its campus and buildings. We are just a little proud of the atmosphere which we have built here through many years. We are shut off more or less from the rush of business and the smoke of factories here in the mountains of Penn sylvania and we feel that it has planted in us something that cannot be gotten anywhere else. This spirit is a-spirit of optimism, that while taking knowledgge of obstacles is not deterred by them. It is a will to do what is best for our Alma Mater without thought of our selves. It is also a democratic spirit in which the man and not name or station has weight. It has never been defined and can only be de scribed as the Penn State spirit. It is this spirit that put in the minds of the pioneers of this insti tution, the vision that some day Penn State will take its place as the cap-stone of the Commonwealth's'educational, system, and it is the spirit that is driving us on to the consummation of that dream. As President Thomas said, Penn State is now the state university in deed if not in name, and we have the foundation upon which this greater institution should be built to give every boy and girl a chance to ob tain a college education such as is given by state universities in many less wealthy states than Pennsylvania. We have the location and the equipment for the larger task and the ambition to achieve it. The question of whether Pennsylvania can afford a state univers ity is answered in the inaugural'address of President Thomas when he said t, "No state in the union can better afford it. Her aggregate wealth is more than fifteen billion dollars. The value of her farms alone exceeds a billion and a quarter. She pays one-sixth of the income tax of the United States. Her manufacturers exceed two and one half billions a year, more than one-tenth of the country. Taxes in Penn sylvania are lower than in any other state in the North. The state could build the largest university in the union and provide for its maintainance accordingly, and her taxation rate for purposes of the Commonwealth would still be lower than any other state north of the Mason and Dixon line." The time for the conversion of this institution into a Pennsylvania State University is now. The state is crowded with young men and women who are demanding an education and the means for their in struction must be provided by the state. Private institutions cannot take care of them and the Pennsylvania State College is the logical loundation for the state university, since it is the only institution of higher learning maintained by the state of Pennsylvania and is now the state university in fact, if not in name.

It is not the result of accident; nor is it accomplished over night. Leadership comes to a store when men have confidence in the quality of its merchandise; belief in its avowee purpose to give better value; faith in its ideal to give thorough and complete satisfaction. Leadership is the tribute that people pay to our store, our methods and our merchandise. It is the natural cansequence of years of fair dealing; the result of foregoing temporary gains at times to win future good wills.
