Description:	THE NORMAL ADVANCE23ings are enjoyable and if you dont find, yourself interested at times, consider the fact thatperhaps the trouble lies within you, and becomeinteresting yourself. Then youll find themeetings are all right.Now, just one more little story and then Imthrough. Last summer I often listened to thetrains making their way up the mountains, andas the plucky engines tugged their cars up thesteep grade, they pulled out these words withthe utmost determination: I think I can Ithink I can I think I can, and then whenthey reached the station at the end of the steepclimb where they halted for breath, they sangout perhaps breathlessly, but none the less joyfully, I knew I could I knew I could I knewI could.Now the incline between the first floor andthe association room may be a little steeperthan the grade between Try on and Saluda, butit is not nearly so long, and Im sure if you justmake up your mind, conserve your energy andthen let your feet keep time to I think I can I think I can I think I can, youll reach thetop floor in safety, and your pleasure in yourachievement will only be equalled by ours, asyou gasp forth breathlessly but happily: Iknew I could I knew I could I knew I could.local anb AlumniMiss Zelpha Burkett, C.
