Author Description

Excerpt from Exponent, 1908 In the editorial word to the readers of the Exponent, brev ity can easily be its redeeming virtue. The rapid approach of the commencement season which will end the days of the Summer Class of '08 in the Los An geles State Normal School may be allowed to be a proper reason for the expression of our feelings of joy, mingled with sorrow; joy as we begin a new stage on life's highway, sorrow as we bid farewell to our Alma Mater. Our days here have been filled with work and play, profit and pleasure, and we have been favored in finding friends, comrades and helpers whom we shall not willingly forget. It is not easy to say Farewell, but the broad path we have traveled while here now seems to divide almost endlessly and each is called to follow his individual way with its special duties, privileges, pleasures and deeds. Our best wishes for the success of each, whithersoever his way leads, we hereby convey to our classmates and fellow students, our teachers and friends.
