We wonder if all of our predecessors had the same feelings surge through them when they began the task of issuing their volume. We wonder if they too had dreams of making their volume the best yet in the sight of all its readers. We sup¬ pose they did, and they have left us the record of their success. To us it is all anticipation now. The future lies dimly before us. In a few short months we too will have learned how nearly our dreams have been realized. We need your help. You can help us make Volume Nineteen a success by offering sugges¬ tions, by sending in an article occasionally, and by your subscription. Let us remember the primary purpose of the Advance. It is first, last, and always to represent the interests of I. S. N., and that is what we propose tomake it. We stand for progression with radi¬ calism excepted. We hope to make it rank with the best school papers of the country. We stand for whatever, in its final analysis, means a larger and better school.We would not even entertain any hope of success if we were going to issue this volume alone, but we are taking into count the fact that wTe have an excellent staff, and that this is backed by the continuous and hearty support of the entire Student Body and the Faculty. Let us boost together and then will efforts be crowned with success. Then, and only then, will our realization be as great as our anticipa¬ tion.LOYALTY.The school year opened with the largest at¬ tendance for any one fall term in the history of the school. Now that work has begun and we have taken up our routine of daily activi¬ ties the question naturally arises, What is ex¬ pected of us as students? The variance in the answers to this question would perhaps be as varied as there are various students in a class. If we were to answer this question by the use of a single word, we would say LOYALTY. We are told that there is one element that is worth its weight in gold, and that is loyalty  loyalty covers a multitude of weaknesses.Be loyal to what? Be loyal to Home. The home is the nursery of all other institutions. Without its success all other institutions would probably fail. We have no moral right to be negligent of Home and friends, who perhaps are making sacrifices that we might have the privilege of enjoying a college training. How can we be loyal to our home? Let our con¬ duct while here in the school be such that we would have no occasion to be embarrassed were it reproduced upon a screen before the eyes of our parents and friends.Again, be loyal to the school. Do your work with, a whole heart. Do the duty nearest you first. Be loyal to your class room and your instructor. Be not afraid to do a few pieces
