You know your education cost the state twice as much as it cost you. As a business or professional man or ordinary citizen this must make it clear in your mind that you are under a moral ob ligation to make a return on this investment. HERE IS ONE WAY Do your share to help build the UNION MEMORIAL building. It will be an imposing structure of great utility. It will be an attraction to desirable students. It will serve students, faculty and visitors and, to consider it from a selfish viewpoint, it will provide you with a campus home, a place to meet your friends, a clubhouse where you will be always welcome and where you can enjoy true M. A. C. hospitality.
