------,,------In this mirror that hangs in the drawing room of our college, we see re~ected
the older Hollins girls whose memor)1
is inspiration. We, too, are re~ecte4
in it as li"ing presences; "Our sorrows

our experiences fade, the

To our cause from your own SUl1ny sheen?
You have brought for your part the hue nearest YOllr
heart,
And spread Hollins' hill si les with green.
nd you, frosty Fall, the mo t brilliant of all,
What co lor for U ' do you hold?
You have laid your fair hand with its torch 011 our land,
And set our tree flamin g with gold.

The Green and the Go ld , we have loved it of old,
And to it we wi ll ever be true.
For the memory wi ll last of the days that arc P,l st,
And linger, dear Iiollins, with you.
For Ii fe, when we're young, is it song that is sung.
And must pass as a talc that is told,
nut honor and prai. e, to the end of our days,
We will render the Grccn and the Jold.

And sti ll at the thought of the good she has wrought.
Each heart mu st with gratitud thrillSo to Hollins we'll sing 'till the mountainsid 's ring,
Our jewel of woodland and hill.
There are true, loya l friends that our college life lend s,
And trea'ures of lift' manifold,

Our Hollins. the Creen and the Gold.

~~Thro ugh the Looking-Glass ~~
Over my desk there han gs a copy of R a phacl's The ('hool of ,1t hl'llS , 0 ftcn-vcry
often-as I sit and look at it, it almost happe ns that 1 can stand on thc marble steps,
undcr the arche. of that Crecian templc and can actually hear the swift, cager word s
w hich fly from one brightly-robed figu re to another. And what a good ly company of
ancient Greeks it is! The lu rc of all the ridd les asked by N aturc and by JUan ha
permeated thosc wall ·, and back and forth fly the finely-taken questions and answers
concerning th· nature of, the earth, the stars, of l\lan, and of God. Thinkers, thcse
mcn are, entcred upon the great Advcnturc of thc lVlind, attempting to look fu ll at lifc,
"to see it steadily and see it whole." There are among them those w ho hear the lVlusic of
the Spheres, a nd those who thrill to the dance of the atom; tho e who run at the ca ll of
Pleasure, and those who arc sobcr at the voice of Duty; one who says, "Comc up from
the world and seck to know perfection," and one who says, "Know thyself."
This wa. the School of Athens, several ccnturie. before Ch rist. And yet no age
down the long vista of ages past is so like in spirit and in attitude toward lifc to our
own. To both life holds out a great challengc to reason; minds become winged a nd
see.k the farthcst parts of the universe in an effort to know.
Both have rejected the
gUI.dance of trad ition and au thori ty and have bccomc scientificall y-Illi nded, cri tical;

explanation of ourselves. Emerson say., "I ClUI find Greece, Asia, Itil ly, Spain and th ~
Islands-t he genius and creative pr incip les of each and of all eras in l11y olVn mi nd;there is prope rl y no history, on ly biography." A nd Goethe says that the philosophy of
every man and of every age depe nds largely upon the door by which life is entered. To
know ourselves, then, wil l invo lve an understanding of the doors which have becn flung
open for us and of t hose who have flung them open. For our age, with its questioning,
courageous curio.ity, is, in thi sense, a mirror in which even the School of Athens is
reflected. To gain any real, live va lues from bei ng "an heir of all thc ages" it is
required that we slip through , as Alice did, into the Looking-G lass Ilou se ",here the
pawns are all alivc. "First, there's the room you can see through the glass plain lythat's just about the same as our OIVn room only th~ thillgs go the other way." But
bryond, it is qu ite differc nt.
But, you wil l say, the golden g lor ies of the old are ollly fa ll en leaves Hbout t he feet
of the young-what we want i. not tradition but inspiration. And Coethe anSll'er~,
"\Ve l11uSt all receive illld learn from those who were beforc us. .
To speak th::
truth, what had 1 that lI' as properly 111)' o\\'n savc th~ abilit) to sec and hear, to dis·
tinguish alld to se lect, and to cnliven with some wit what I had 5::C II alld heard, then
to interpret it with some degrce of skill? I, by no m eH n~ , oll'e l11y works to 111)' own
wisdom alone, but to a thousand things l1nd pe rsolls
that pnll'ided me with
material.
All to ld me what they fe lt alld thought, how they livcd alld worked
and what experiellces thcy had gailled, and I had but to put out 111 )' halld and reap II'hflt
others had so wn for me."
It is this abi lity to see and hcar and thu ' to put out our hands alld reap what has
becn SOWII for us which alolle makes us heir of all the ages ill any tnlt se llse. Those
who havc eyes, yet not the ability to sec, can do no more than move about under th e
protection of reforms, employ machilles, alld express dogma, all of which were at olle
time private opinions, th n dreams, then strugglcs. Truly to illherit a thillg, wlwth:: r
it bc il system of studellt government on a collegc campus, a theory of gravitation, or an
alltomobile, it is required that we imagint "i ntensely and comprelwlIsivl'i) ," that we
grope with searching tend rils of the imagination illto th e sou l where it wa" onc(' a
dream alld a visiOIl,-that is, where the truth of it lies,
Th()~l' who ellter thus
through thc looking-glass find, as Alice did, that it is "oh, so beautiful !"and
tradition bl' ('()/I/('S inspiratioll.
And what call we do with this inh ~ ritanc,', grant~'d thnt we are ablL- to grasp it ?

I cannot but wonder each Commencement a a new group of Seniors prepares to take
its pl ace in the Looking-Gla s House of Holl ins history, how many of those for whom
they have bui lded will come back and visit with them! For the things which have been
accomplished are oilly a small part of the inner stirrings, the plans and visions which
lie back of them . A ll these have gone into t he making not on ly of the story of Hollins,
but into that longer story of Adventures in Thinking begun back in Athens, centurie
ago where the School of Today was founded; and as Holli ns girls each year join this
long and illustrious procession of fellow-adventurers, at the far end of which stand the
pioneer figure ill the Greciall temple, I can hear them voicing the cry of each age as it
bequeaths its inheritance, "Guard you t.he dreams of the Dreamer."
