This much was decided at the re cent a n n u al meeting of t he M. A. C. Association. And when is said doesn't it give you a feeling of free dom, a feeling of having attained your majority, as it were. T he idea, you like ours not say, of an association being self-supporting! that A self-supporting M. A. C. Associa tion is to be accomplished by dues of $2.00 a year, which include t he RECORD or, looking at it in a different light, it means t h at the subscription to t he RECORD shall be $2.00, all over the cost of the publication to be used for the expenses of the Association. We wouldn't admit t h at we've been in error for not having t a k en this step This alumni movement has before. been a m a t t er of growth. But we have now attained our majority. In a year's time we should be able to swing all the expenses'of the M. A. C. Asso ciation t h at we should bear. That this is a logical and a r i g ht step no one can question. F or years we have been talking about t he loy alty of t he alumni and how much this is sup to M. A. C. Loyalty means posed from to spring spontaneously our close association with Alma Mater. It will sound better in the future, will it not, when we talk of our loyalty to do so with t he realization t h at Alma Mater is not paying us for doing it. There is one other side to this ques tion. We sincerely hope t h at the gift which M. A. C. received this last year from a p r o m i n e nt citizen of the state is only t he beginning. It will be much more apt to be only the beginning if the citizens of the state know t h at the graduates, who have received so much from M. A. C, a re back of the insti tution not only in words but in deeds. YOUR RESPONSIBILITY. "How a re you going to collect it," asked some one at t he recent alumni "I know it ought to be col meeting.
