Excerpt from Semi-Centennial History of the Alpha Zeta Society of Shurtleff College: Together With Complete Rosters of Active and Honorary MembersIfe is a very breath in its brevity, and he does well who strives in full realization of the fact, but he surely errs who deems the span too brief for an occasional glance of retrospect. There is profit in the contem plation of that which has gone before - ih a moment's withdrawal from the busy struggling turmoil, to indulge a thought of the past, so rich in lessons for present and future guidance. Thus is Character broadened and strength ened, and useful knowledge gained. History has ever been a most fruitful field of investigation. Even amid the tense and varied activities of college life the study of history has its place. Noting the efforts and the successes of the manly men who have preceded us, we are roused to greater realiza tion of the value of life and inspiration to act well our part. We are lifted to a higher plane. We are brought into touch with a host of lives and reap the benefit of their experiences, learning the heights to strive for and the pitfalls to avoid.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
