Excerpt from The Carontawan, 1923: Alias "the Little Town on the Hill" The real test of knowledge is its application in the aid of human progress. Utility is the word. Let one of us be called upon to give of his knowledge._ No sooner does he try than he begins to feel a need for more. Who of us has passed through a teaching semester without realizing this? As long as we absorb that which is good and give it to the world, nature imbues us with greater absorptive ability and main tains youth with n us. One who is modern in his thought is never thought of as being old. If he can no longer absorb new ideas, he is old though his much vaunted chronological age is but sweet sixteen. During our time at Mansfield State -normal, it has been our privilege to receive freely from the world's fund of knowledge. What measure we have obtained, we now realize, is dependent upon how diligently we applied ourselves to learning. We go forward. Our scope is broadened. In a small way we begin to exert power. With increased power comes increased responsibility. We shall be considered to rank th men and women and be expected to bear the responsibilities incumbent upon manhood and womanhood.
