Heaven is not reached at a single bound;
But we build the ladder by which we rise
From the lowly earth to the vaulted skies,
And we mount to its summit round by round.
I count this thing to be grandly true:
That a noble deed is a step toward God,
Lifting the soul front the comnwn clod
To a purer air and a broader viet-17.
We rise by the things that are under feet;
By what we have mastered of good and gain;
By the pride deposed and the passion slain,
And the vanquished ills that we hourly meet.
Wings for the angels, but feet for men!
We may borrow the wings to find the way
We may hope, and resolve, and aspire, and pray;
But our feet must rise, or we fall again.

MISS META STENGER we sincerely
dedicate the Bellevinois of 1948. Her patience
and understanding have endeared her to all who
know her, and her quiet humor has added enjoy
ment to all her classes. Her work with the Stu
dent Council in all its activities has long been
recognized and appreciated by both students and
faculty. Therefore, as a symbol of our admiration
and respect, we dedicate this Bellevinois to Miss
Stenger.
