week.  Still  the  clouds  hung 


A  young  army  chaplain  was  statio 
mountain  in  Japan.  His  wife  came 
mountain  for  the  first  time.  On  the  da 
completely  hid  the  peak,  and  there  w 
day  passed,  two,  three,  four,  then  a 
low,  and  the  chaplain's  wife  looked  in  vain. 

One  night  the  clouds  disappeared.  The  next  morning  against 
the  deep  blue  sky  lay  the  beauty  of  the  majestic  peak  of  Mount 
Fuji.  Where  once  was  only  fog.  mist,  and  clouds,  now  appeared 
all  the  grandeur  of  nature  and  its  God. 

So  it  is  with  us  sometimes.  We  grope  along  in  the  clouds 
of  fear,  doubt,  and  superstition  and  cannot  penetrate  the  fog. 
But  our  Lord  would  not  have  it  thus.  He  bids  us  raise  our  eyes 
and  behold  the  beautiful,  majestic  peaks  of  faith,  hope,  and  love. 

How  can  we  do  otherwise?  For  the  One  who  calls  has  led

PLAN  NOW  to  attend  the  big  convention  at  Collegedale, 
Tennessee,  headtjuarters  on  the  Southern  Missionary  College  cam- 
pus, September  15,  1952  through  June,  1953.  The  convention  be- 
gins for  all  newcomers  on  Monday,  September  15,  and  for  all 
former  members  on  September  16. 

At  the  present  moment  there  are  still  adequate  accommoda- 
tions for  a  large  number.  However,  in  order  to  have  the  most 
favorable  chance  of  getting  your  preference  of  work  and  of 
housing  accommodations,  apply  NOW. 

Hundreds  of  delegates  have  already  applied — and  been  ac- 
cepted. For  yon — former  and  new  members — here's  a  cordial  and 
sincere  welcome.  Bring  with  you  in  September  your  fresh  ideas 
and  buoyant  spirits,  for  you  will  be  builders  while  you  stay  on 
this  campus— builders  of  a  college,  a  senior  college  with  high 
ideals  and  practices. 

For  you  who  are  still  "on  the  fence" — jump  down  NOW  on 
the  side  of  Christian  education  and  Southern  Missionary  College. 
Send  in  that  application  blank  today,  or,  if  you  do  not  have  one. 
write  to  the  college.  If  finances  are  worrying  you. 


home,  that  the  dormitory 
bl>  terribly  quiet  and  boring 
this  summer.  But  it  didn't  take  us 
long  to  learn  that  just  a  few  people 
can  make  a  lot  of  noise!  Although 
there  are  only  about  75  girls  in  the 
dormitorj'  this  summer,  they  have 
turned  out  to  be  a  pretty  lively  bunch, 
Mrs.  L,  M,  Nelson,  our  dean  this 
summer    while    Miss    Stoneburner    is 

order  to  give  fair  punishment  to  all 
offenders  of  the  rules  of  Maude  Jones 
Hall.  This  court  will  try  and  sentence 
all  girls  found  guilty  of  misdemeanors. 
The  officers  of  the  court  have  recently 
been  elected,  and  they  are:  Billie  Jean 
Marable,  judge:  Frances  Clark,  Linda 
Porter,  Flossie  Rozell,  June  Ncely  and 
Joan  Hawk,  jurors.  We  noticed  that 
the  dormitory  was  much  quieter  the 
night  after  these  officers  were  elected. 

A  new  club  on  our  campus,  the  Co- 
ed Club,  was  formed  at  a  recent  joint 
worship  meeting.  This  is  to  take  the 
plate  of  the  Triingk-  and  Dasowakita 
Clubs  during  thi.'  summer  and  is  com- 
posed of  all  the  single  students.  Three 
officers  were  elected  at  its  first  meeting. 
They  are:  Wilton  Wynn,  president; 
JuncNeely,  vice-president:  and  Pearlie 
AfcGrew,  secretar)'.  One  of  the  club's 
big  projects  was  the  amateur  hour  on 
Wednesday  night,  July  30, 

A  big  improvement  has  been  made 
in  Maude  Jones  Hall  tliis  summer— 
the  addition  of  new  furniture  to  the 
parlor.  All  the  old  chairs  and  t.iblcs 
huve  been  taken  out,  and  a  l.irgc 
shipment  of  brand-new  furniture  put 
in  their  places.  There  are  ovtr-stufft-d 
chairs  and  divans  of  modern  design, 
together  with  blond  maple  end  tables 
and  several  new  lamps.  A  new  and 
more  homey  atmosphere  has  been 
created  in  our  worship  room,  and 
wed  like-  to  say  a  great  big  "Thank 
you"  right  here  to  the  college  admin- 
istration  for  making  this  possible.

''^MTra>^^Dillow  and  Frances  Bumby 
visited  the  campus  a  few  weeks  ago 
on  their  way  to  New  York  to  join 
the  "Faith  for  Today"  staff.  They  be- 
gan work  with  our  denominational 
television  group  there  on  July  15,  al- 
though the  program  is  not  being  tele- 
cast during  the  summer  months.  Mari- 
lyn left  the  evangelistic  meeting  in 
Augusta.  Georgia,  with  which  she  had 
been  working,  in  time  to  spend  a  week 
with  her  parents  in  Chattanooga  be- 
fore leaving  for  New  York  City. 
Mary  Ellen  Garden  will  also  be  leav- 
ing at  the  close  of  the  summer  to  join 
Frances  and  Marilyn  as  an  employee  of 
the  "Faith  for  Today"  company.  The 
vocal  trio  will  prove  a  real  asset  to 
the  work  which  this  program  is  doing 
there,  and  they  will  also  be  called 
upon  to  do  solo  numbers  with  the 
male  quartet.  We  wish  them  Godspeed 
as  they  go  on  their  way,  and  hope 
they  drop  us  a  line  now  and  then  to 
let  us  in  on  some  of  the  fun  they're 
having.  _ 

The  girls  of  Maude  Jones  Hall  have 
become  quite  used  to  having  a  man 
looking  in  their  windows  lately.  The 
young  man  who  has  this  distinct  priv- 
ilege is  none  other  than  Jack  Veazey, 
who  has  really  been  shining  for  the 
last  few  weeks — the  windows,  that  is. 
Since  most  of  us  are  not  brave  enough 
to  like  to  hang  outside  the  windows 
on  a  flimsy  little  perch,'  a  real  he- 
man  has  been  hired  to  do  the"  job.  And 
Jack  has  really  been  covering  the 
ground,  too — not  a  window  or  screen 
has  been  missed,  we  hope. 

A  few  of  the  luckier  inhabitants  of 
our  dormitory  were  taken  recently  on 
a  trip  to  Washington,  D.C.  The  Amer- 
ican history  class  sponsored  the  field 
trip,  and  those  who  went  were  treated 
royally  at  the  different  places  they  vis-

done,  he  turned  and  said,  '■Qh,  pardon

sure  the  trip  was  worthwhile,  now. 
Madeline  Rabuka,  Grace  Schmerse,

agree  with  her.

Ringer  is  going  around  bursting  but- 
tons off  his  vest  and  it's  because  of 
a  new  addition  too.  He  has  x  new 
Chevrolet  station  wagon,  and  he  treats 
it  like  a  baby.  Bruce  is  making  t\vo

Motion  pictures,  varied  and  quite 
interesting,  have-  provided  most  of  Che 
summer  Saturday  night  entertainment. 

June  21— A  tilm  on  "Talents"  was 
featured.  The  way  in  which  talents 
can  be  used  in  raising  up  a  church 
was  the  theme.  Two  shorter  films, 
"Modem  Trail"  and  "Building  Dikes 
in  Holland",  were  also  shown, 

June  28 — "Tom  Brown's  School 
Days ',  the  storj'  of  a  young  school 
boy  in  an  English  school,  proved  to 
be  a  very  exciting  motion  picture.  Tom 
was  constantly  getting  mixed  up  in 
some  excapade  for  which  he  always 
took  the  blame. 

July  5 — The  first  lyceum  number  of 
the  summer,  a  harp  trio,  entertained 
with  classical  music.  The  trio  consisted 
of  a  lady  harpist  and  two  men,  one 
playing  a  cello  and  the  other  a  flute. 

July  12 — Two  religious  films,  "Pow- 
er of  God"  and  "Family  Album", 
were  shown.  "What  God's  power  can 
do  to  man's  heart"  was  the  theme  of 
the  former,  and  "cooperation  in  the 
family  works  wonders"  was  the  theme 
of  the  latter. 

July  19- This  was  open  night.  Var- 
ious parties  were  held  around  the 
Campus. 

July  26— "Young  Mr.  Lincoln"  was 
sponsored  by  the  Collegedale  chapter 
of  the  Jaycees  to  promote  funds  for 
additional  fire  equipment.  Tliis  film 
portrayed  Lincoln  as  a  successful  and 
witty  young  lawj'cr.

for  the  students  of  Southcn 
an  College  was  held  on  July  14,  1912, 
at  the  Harrison  Bay  State  Park,  about 
fifteen  miles  from  the  school.  The 
weather  was  warm,  and  everyone  was 
enthusiastic  for  a  good  day. 

The  i;roup  of  about  200  adults 
children  left  the  Administr.-ition  B' 
ing  in  tars  for  the  picnic  area  startinj; 
about  8:}0  a.m.  By  the  time  the 
entire  group  .irrived  at  the  park  tJic 
morning  was  half  gone,  and  the  re- 
mainder was  spent  in  swimming  and 
playing  games. 

After  dinner,  the  atternoon  w.is 
spent  in  swimming  and  playing  games 
until  about  4:30  when  _  the  group 
started  returning  homeward  to  eat  their 
supper  there. 

A  joint  worship  was  held  in  the  col-

Would  you  be  interested  in  some  ot 
the  advantages  of  attendance  at  a 
college-connected  academy  in  general, 
and  Collegedale  Academy  in  partic- 
ular? Let  me  list  for  you  a  few  ad- 
vantages as  we  see  them: 

1.  College-connected  academies  gen- 
erally have  teachers  of  the  highest 
qualifications  and  greatest  teach- 
ing experience,  and  Collegedale 
Academy  is  no  exception.  Eight 
teachers  have  their  M.A.  degree, 
and  the  aitngt  length  of  teath 
ing  experience  is  cii-htecn  >cars 

2.  Collegedale  Atidcm)  is  full) 
accredited  with  the  Southern  As 
sociation  of  Colleges  md  Second 
ar>  Schools  and  is  a  member  of 
the  Association  of  Sccondar> 
Schools  and  Colleges  of  the  Board 
of  Regents    of   Seventh-day   Ad- 

3.  Collegedale     Aademy     students 

have   superior   advantages    in    all 
laboratory  cl.isses.   College  facili-

ties  are  available  to  academy  stu- 
dents in  such  fields  as  the  library, 
science,  home  economics,  typing, 
print  shop.  etc. 

The  gymnasium  and  recreation 
field,  together  with  a  qualified 
staff  in  physical  education,  insures 
a  strong  course  in  this  field.  In- 
door games  and  skating  afford  re- 
laxation and  enjoyment  as  well  as 
wholesome  exercise  at  all  seasons 
of  the  year. 
.     The    college   has 


opportunities  for  self  ki  I 
be  found.  Last  year  M

of  voice,  piano,  organ,  or  wind

sings  in  the  seventh-largest  church 
in  North  America. 
At  least  once  a  month  an  excellent 
lyccum  number  is  provided.  Op- 
portunities for  cultural  and  social 
development  are  many  and  varied. 
Attending  a  college-connected 
academy  helps  to  keep  the  goal  of 
a  college  education  before  the 
student.  One  is  perhaps  also  better 
oriented  to  college  life  for  having

"  "ep'Lber  19  has  brought  to  this  school  a  new  class  of  freshmen 
who  are  launching  a  four-year  college  course  with  a  goal  in  sight. 
They  know  where  they  are  going.  They  have  charted  a  cour-e  and 
have  set  sail  on  a  voyage  that  will  lead  to  future  progress 

Over  500  years  ago  a  man  set  forth  on  a  voyage  comparable 
to  the  undertaking  of  many  here  at  Southern  Missionary  College 
He  chose  the  course  he  was  to  follow,  set  his  cour 
movable  in  face  of  difficulties  that  would  siiHle 
dividual.  Eventually  he  attained  his  goal.  It  was 
had  hoped  to  gain,  yet  his  faithfulness  brought 


ELiit : 

With  all  of  the  chaltcring.  clomping 
UP  and  down  halls,  and  bansing  of 
doors,  (here  is  ro  doubt  in  anyone  s 
mind  but  that  school  has  started  once 
again.  There  ate  many  new  faces  m 
our  midst.  In  fact,  if  I'm  not  m.slakcn, 
the  new  girls  have  us  old  ones  out- 
numbered  by  quite  a  few,  109  to  be 
exact.  One  day  thirty  new  girls  arrived. 
As  Miss  Slonebumcr  said  m  worship, 
quite  an  addition  to  one 
family  in  one  day." 

Some  of  the  girls'  rooms  have  been 
tikine  on  many  and  varied  colors.  If 
you  svant  10  see  one  that  will  really 
knock  your  eyes  out,  take  a  peek  in 
Room  227,  the  home  of  Lynne  Jensen 
and  Mary  Jean  Brown.  It  rea'ly  is 
pretty  though,  even  if  the  walls  are 
lavender  and  the  lamp.shades  are  red. 

I  wonder  if  La  Vetne  Powell 
thought  she  might  gst  a  job  as  a  mod- 
el   in   Paris  with   her  new   hair-do? 


I  just  hope  she  doesn't  start  a  fad. 

Some  of  the  girls  must  feel  like 
roaming  gypsies,  who  camp  in  a  dif- 
ferent place  almost  every  night.  Thete 
ate  a  few  girls  who  had  to  move  as 
many  as  fouf  times  before  'they  finally 
got  permanently  settled.  I  didn't  hear 
Inyone  grumbling  about  it,  though. 

Miss  Sloneburner  has  no  assistant 
dean  this  year,  but  thiee  very  capable 
monitors  who  mtike  up  for  that  lack. 

Qrol  S;earns  was  a  visitor  here 
over  the  week  end,  and  it  was  good 
to  sec  her  again.  Carol  is  teaching 
church  school  in  Fulton,  Kentucky, 
this  year.  My  hat,  if  I  had  one,  would 
go  off  to  these  church  school  teachers 
who  are  doing  such  a  wonderful  job. 

I  wish  someone  would  inform  the 
girls  upstairs  that  we  have  a  tabernacle 
fixed  especially  for  skating,  and  it  is 
entirely  unnecessary  to  skate  around

The  President's  Message, . . 

This  morning  it  was  my  privilege  to  address  nearly  200  college 
freshmen.  For  several  days  I  have  worked  midst  the  freshmen  and 
iii-w  students  who  are  in  the  process  of  registering  and  exposing 
themselves  to  the  orientation  program. 

"College  daze"  is  more  than  an  idle  expression  to  many  of 
the  new-comers.  One  of  the  first  required  courses  for  every  new 
siudcni  is  tailed  College  Problems.  Even  the  title  suggests  difficul 
lies  .iliciid.  I  suppose  no  one  has  ever  completed  a  four-year  college 
u.iirt  u  iihiHit  meeting  many  and  serious  perplexities  and  problems 
whkh  [night  be  classified  as  social,  physical,  intellectual,  and 
spiritual.  How  very  thankful  we  should  be  that  it  is  possible  for 
this  year's  freshmen  tb*  travel  in  a  plain  path  and  one  without 
perplexities. 

I  recommend  to  all  the  careful  reading  and  acceptance  of  the 
promise  found  on  page  481  of  Mhiistry   oj  Healing: 

"The  faithful  discharge  of  to-day's  duties  is  the  best  prepara 
ation  for  to-morrow's  trials.  Do  not  gather  together  all  to-morrow's 
llabilitius  and  cares  and  add  them  to  the  burden  of  today.  .  .  .

Beckner  Speaks 

Elder  H.  R.  Beckner  spoke  on 
"Lightbeacers"  in  church,  Sabbath, 
September  27.  He  pointed  out  that 
we  can  all  bear  light  for  Christ,  wbeth- 
we  are  young  or  old,  in  America 
in  heathen  lands. 

This  Sabbath  was  the  lOOth  anni- 
versary of  the  Sabbath  school.  Mrs. 
H  T.  Curtis  was  the  queen  of  Sabbath 
school  goers,  having  attended  all  79

The  next  few  weeks  will  be  crucial  ones  for  many  college 
students.  Lesson  assignments  will  be  getting  longer  and  harder. 
New  students  have  not  yet  become  orientated  to  the  pattern  of  col- 
lege class  assignments.  They  may  begin  to  think  that  college  work 
is  too  difficult,  and  that  perhaps  the  wisest  thing  for  them  is  not 
to  plan  on  a  college  education.  To  such  students  I  would  like  to 
say  that  if  they  will  apply  themselves  with  diligence  to  their  les- 
sons, they  will  surprise  themselves  at  what  they  can  do.  Hard  work, 
determination,  and  regularity  make  mountains  of  difficulty  melt 
away.  The  most  difficult  assignments  should  be  tackled  first.  Shun 
the  tendency  to  leave  the  hard  things  till  the  last.  Don't  w:

J  The  Bible  says,  "The  hand  of  the  diligent  shall  bear  rule,  but     Mr.  Norman  L.  Krogstad  led  them 

the  slothful   person  shall   be  put  under  taskwork."  Positions  of     '  """  "^ 

leadership  and  responsibility  await  those  who  gain  a  good  education 

and  who  learn  to  handle  difficult  assignments.  Diligence  in  work 

and  study  is  an  essential  without  which  one  cannot  hope  for  success. 

Of  all  the  qualities  that  win,  diligence  and  perseverance  count  the 

most.  The  students  who  go  from  this  college  into  positions  of 

leadership  are  not  always  the  brightest  or  cleverest,  but  those  who 

are  determined  and  who  make  good   use  of  their  time.  Having 

developed  the  ability  to  concentrate,  they  are  able  to  encompass 

a  large  amount  of  work  in  a  short  time.  This  then  is  my  message 

to  our  students — don't   become  discouraged  with  hard  tasks,  but 

rather  apply  yourself  to  them  with  perseverance,  knowing  that 

anything  worthwhile  demands  the  best  that  you  can  give.

Opinion  Poll 

JiM    ALtXANLUK 

Oiieslinfi— Would  you  rnlher  have 
ih? school  pic»ic  ill  the  pU  or  in  the 
spring? 

Pal  Martz  — To  me  spring  seems 
the  best  time  to  have  a  picnic.  The 
weather  Is  warm  enough  for  swim- 
ming, etc..  which  you  can't  do  in  the 
fall." 

Theh,u>  Piunl  Clnw  —  I  would  rath- 
er have  the  picnic  in  the  fall  because 
all  the  class  picnics  are  in  the  second 
semester.  Also  when  you  have  some- 
thing like  a  school  picnic  at  the  b 
ning  of  the  year  you  learn  to  kno' 

Charles  Ptlli'igill  —  As  far  as  swim- 
ming goes,  the  only  way  1  can  cross  a 
Like  is  to  walk  across  Ihe  bottom,  so 
fall  is  just  as  good  as  spring  for  my 
money. 

Sandy  Claylon—Fan  seems  to  be 
better.  There  are  too  many  last  minute 
things  to  be  done  in  the  spring. 

Chesler  Damroii  —  I  feel  the  fall 
is  the  best  time  of  the  college  year  for 
our  sdiool  picnic.  During  this  time  the 
program  isn't  quite  so  rushed,  and  it 
would  give  the  college  and  academy 
students  a  better  chance  to  get  to  know 
each  other. 

Bob  Ammom  —  I'd  rather  have  it 
in  the  spring  because  so  many  student 
colporteurs  are  delivering  at  this  time, 
and  people  are  better  acquainted  in  the 
spring. 

Charles  Morgan  —  Missing  the  last 
two  school  picnics  because  of  colpor- 
teur deliveries,  I  am  inclined  to  favor 
a  spring  picnic.  Also  a  spring  picnic

CoIIegedale  Academy   has  opened  its  door; 
140  young  men  and  young   women  for  the  school  year  ] 
If  the  record  of  the  first  six  weeks  be  any  indication  of  wh   I 
year  will  be  like,  we  would  have  to  predict  one  of  the  besc^J; 
experienced  by  teachers  and  students  at  CoIIegedale. 

This  year  there  are  no  college  students  enrolled  to  mal;  I 
deficiencies.  A  rather  extraordinary  fact  is  that  when  you  addl 
the  total  units  taken  by  the  I40  students  and  divide  by  four 
are  more  than  HO  full-time  students.  We  believe  this  is  indjci^l 
of  the  purpose  and  earnestness  of  our  school  family  this  y 

Two  other  trends   are  also  encouraging.   Never  befor 
believe,  has  there  been  so  few  withdrawals  from  school  durir 
first  period.  Neither  has  there  ever  before  been  so  few  ch^l 
of  courses  for  the  same  period  of  time.  We  now  expectaniK  j, 
the  records  of  achievement  which  will  be  known  in  a  few  dj 

Our  music  organizations  are  thriving  this  year.  There 
in  our  chorus;  40  in  our  bands;  and  25  in  music  appreciation,  J 
Krogstad,  Mr.  Cowles,  and  Miss  Wood  are  doing  excellent « 
in  their  respective  music  groups.  Mr.  John  Gregory  is  doing, 
with  the  beginners'  band.  We  shouM  be  hearing  somethim 
worth  from  these  groups  before  many  days. 

Under  the  blessing  of  God  we  should  enjoy  a 
blessing.

a  picnic  both  in  the  fall  and  spring. 

Marathon  Begins 

The  Committee  on  Improvement  of 
English  us.igc  at  SMC  has  issued  a  neat 
little  pamphlet  of  twenty-eight  pages 
outlining  the  special  featur-^s  of  the 
college's  new  program  for  enlisting  a 
concerted  effort  of  facult}'  and  students 
in  an  ev.ihiation  of  standards  of  spoken 
and  written  work  in  the  college  and 
conimunjEy,  slates  Dr.  Ambrose  L, 
Suhrie, 

One  of  the  special  features  of  this 
program  is  the  ailtural  marathon  in 
English— about  twenty  juniors  and 
seniors  have  registered  for  a  race  in 
which  all  can  win  by  persistent  and 
continuous  effort  throughout  the  year. 
The  standards  of  requirement  for  win- 
ning the  race  have  been  published. 

Dr.  Suhrie  is  executive  secretary  of 
the  new  program  and.  in  his  absence, 
Dr.  R.  L.  Hammill,  who  is  chairmaii 
of  the  committee,  will  administer  the 
program. 

Students  See  Series 

Students  and  faculty  of  SMC  were 
able  to  watch  the  World  Series  on  tele- 
vision. Courtesy  of  the  Southern  Mer- 
cantile Agency,  a  TV  set  was  put  up  in 
the  science  building  for  the  benefit  of 
any  who  wanted  to  see  the  Series  games 
between  the  New  York  Yankees  and 
the  Brooklyn  Dodgers 

During  the  summer,  both  the  Repub- 
hcan  and  Democratic  conventions  were 
viewed  by  several  students  and  teachers 
who  took  advantage  of  a  similar  op- 
portunity, again   thanks  to  the  Mer-

"Ldii  ii'ighl  it  rahicd. 

Then  the  stars  looked  down 

Upon  an  earth  sweet,  clean,  and  glistening, 

And  saw,  as  did  God,  that  it  was  very  good. 

Before  long  God  drew  aside  the  curtains  of  night 

Day  dawned  upon  the  land,  the  sea,  the  sky. 

Soon  God  gave  the  day  to  man  and  said, 

'Rejoice  and  be  glad  in  it.' 

Bnf  man  was  willful,  sinful,  unthankful  for  it. 

He  look  the  God-given  day,  misused  it,  polluted  it. 

At  enntidc  the  sun  gathered  up 

The  remaining  glory  of  the  day  and  sank 

Behind  the   western   horizon. 

Nighl  dropped  her  mantle  over  the  world 

Ami  the  Creator  father  declared  out  of  love. 

7  will  give  mankind  another  good  day  t 


But  the  ivicked  men,  men  blind  to  God,  saw 
No  glory  of  God  in  the  air,  the  earth,  or  the  su 
Only  the  lovers  of  God,  the  Christlike  in  heart. 
Humbled  themselves  in  reverence  that  day."

Donna  Weber  came  back  from  the 
evening  program  still  singing  about 
-Gotta  pain  in  my  sawdust."        __ 

It  surely  was  like  -old  times  to 
have  Maude  Dubberly  visiUng  with  us 
before  going  up  to  Clarksville  to  deliv- 
er her  books.  She  brought  back  a  snap- 
ping turtle  to  her  former  roommate, 
L  Verne  Powell.  It  •'bit"  Marilyn  Cha- 
pin.  The  turtle  is  no  more. 

Early  one  morning  last  week  Mer- 
aldine  Dickerson,  Pat  Crawley.  Nancy 
Matthews,  and  Betty  Gibson  brought 
four  big 'quilts  out  to  Mr.  Owens' 
truck  in  front  of  the  dormitory.  Joann 
Byers  Betty  and  Ella  Mae  Owens  were 
already  snuggled  down  in  the  hay, 
waiting  to  start  on  their  trip  to  Mt. 
Pisgah  Academy.  Asheville,  North  Car- 
Carolyn  Haines  was  surprised  the 
other  night  when  her  aunt  and  uncle. 
Mr.  and  Mrs,  Bennett,  from  Glendale, 
California,  came  to  visit  her.  Jackie 
and  Paul.  Carol)ii's  cousins,  say  that 
the  thing  they  like  best  about  Maude 
Jones  Hall  is— the  girls. 

Recent  visitors  to  our  dormitory 
have  included  Elder  D.  E.  Rebok.  a 
former  president  of  Southern  Junior 
College;  Elder  and  Mrs.  C.  W.  Bo-

and  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Jansen,  Janyce's 
parents. 

We  have  been  favored  recently  with 
two  special  guest  speakers  for  evening 
worship.  Mrs.  Mary  Burdick.  a  former 
classmate  of  Miss  Stoneburner's,  told 
us  several  experiences  she  had  while 
she  was  dean  of  girl  in  a  South  Amer-

A  Teacher's  View  * « « 

J  Tlif  new  sdiool  year  at  Southern  Missionary  College  is  well 

under  way.  The  outlook  is  good,  I  have  learned  to  rate  the  incoming 
freshman  class  very  high  in  ability  and  in  character,  as  well  as  in 
morale  and  school  spirit.  I  confidently  look  forward  to  the  day 
when  a  very  high  percentage  of  them  will  be  graduated  with  a 
college  degree.  1  expea  transfers  to  be  few  and  mortality  to  be  low. 

The  class  is  completely  organized  and  as  an  organization  is 

functioning  smoothly.   Capable  young  men — five  of    them and 

young  women— two  of  them— have  been  chosen  to  the  class  offices. 
These  young  people  have  plans  for  the  organization  they  serve 
and  will  doubtless  secure  the  necessary  support  to  carry  them 
through  to  completion. 

At  the  first  regular  meeting  of  the  class  two  successful  dem- 
onstrations were  made.  The  boys  demonstrated  the  temporary 
organization  of  a  "Young  Farmers'  Association  of  Hamilton  Coun- 
ty." The  girls  demonstrated  how  to  cflea  a  temporary  federation 
of  the  Women's  Clubs  of  Hamilton  County.  And  the  meeting  ad- 
journed on  time. 

The  officers  of  the  class  have  made  plans  for  mastering— in 
practice— the  Senior  Manual  for  Group  Leadership  by  O.  Garfield 
Jones  of  Toledo  University.  They  seem  to  sense  the  high  value  of 
competence  in  group  leadership.

Mississippi  Conference. 

Dr.  H.  E.  Westermcyer,  professor  of 
histof)',  talked  to  us  about  Columbus 
Day  and  gave  us  a  motto  by  Joaquin 
Miller,  "Sail  On." 

We  always  did  wonder  what  kind 
of  cooks  Nancy  Rosenthal  and  Thelma 
Pearl  Qicw  were  going  to  be— now  ^ye 
know!  After  cooking  a  fine  meal  in 
the  kitchenette  for  some  friends,  Nancy 
stayed  in  the  infirmary  all  night. 

If  you  ever  want  to  know  about 
Spartanburg  and  Union,  South  Caro- 
lina, just  talk  to  Pansy  Boughman  and 
Marilyn  Dunnagin.  By  the  way,  is 
there  any  brave  individual  here  who 
would  be  willing  to  get  up  at  3:30  in 
the  morning  and  escort  Pansy  down  to 
the  dairy?  She  says  she's  homesick  for 
the  farm  and  misses  the  cows. 

Did  anyone  ever  tell  you  about  the 
time  when  Birdie  McConnachie  mis- 
took guest  room  one  for  the  linen  clos- 
et at  11:30  at  night?  Fortunately  for 
her.  Mary  Grove  came  around  the  time 
Birdie  had  the  door  unlocked. 

Is  any  tall  young  man  looking  for 
good  housekeeping  qualities?  Our  sec- 
ond floor  hall  is  kept  spotlessly  clean 
by  a  faithful,  meek  little  soul  named 
Mae  Necker. 

We  know  why  Martha  Tinnon  won 
that  prize  on  the  picnic  day — she  gets 
a  lot  of  practice  jumping  out  of  the 
third  floor  monitor's  way. 

And  right  here  let  me  say  that  I 
do  "ol  appreciate  all  the  trouble  my 
"faithful  admirers "  have  taken  on  my 
account.  Just  because  I'm  taking  auto 
mechanics  for  vocational  credit,  some 
humorous  people  have  sent  me  an  old 
greasy  Ford  wrench,  three  Hot  Rod 
magazines  from  the  National  Hot  Rod 
Council,  an  index  on  V-8  engines, 
a  pair  of  size  50  overalls,  and  a  book 
entitled  How  to  Fix  a  Carburetor 
While  GfllDig  a  Ton}. 

And  that's  the   finishing  touch.

TUB     sniITHERN     ACCENT 


ON  THE  ACADEMy 


LET'S  LOOK  IT  OVER 

Since   the  academy   has   just   started   a  new    six-week 

would  it  not  be  a  good  idea  for  each  student  to  sit  down  and  J 

back  over  the  work  that  he  has  done?  " 

So  far,  I  think,  most  of  the  students  have  really  tried 
their  part  to  make  this  school  year  a  success.  But  does  this 
ry  way. 


Poland  in  Janiiar)',  194^. 
Immediatcl)'  after  tlie  war,  Mr,  La 
Vaux  made  three  nationwide  concert 
lours  of  the  United  States,  startling 
audiences  with  great  music  on  the 
accordion  in  place  of  the  hackneyed 
mediocrity  that  formerly  had  been  as- 
sociated with  that  instrument.  At  once 
serious  musicians  realized  that  there 
was  something  definitely  new  in   the

Its  Accent  on  the 
School    Picnic 

Elaine  Andhi;ws 
chloSo  ncPcii,  cOt.  H. 
Unscramble  it  and  you  have — the 
school  picnic  October  15.  That's  just 
what  it  was,  with  the  first  event  of 
the  day  starting  at  7:45  AM.  Band 
music,  played  over  the  public  address 
system  on  the  ball  field,  led  into  a 
rousing  ball  game. 

Those  who  appeared  on  the  scene 
at  9:15  A.M.  found  a  football  game, 
a  Softball  game,  and  skating  going  on. 
Oops,  there  goes  Connie  Sue  Devore, 
Jane  Liles,  and  Lenetta  Lamb.  Get  up. 
girls,  and  try  again. 

Dy  12  o'c.ock  everyone  had  worked 
up  a  healthly  appetite  which  the  food 
committee  did  a  good  job  satisfying 
with  burgers,  salad,  baked  beans,  punch 
and  apple  pie.  Paul  Allen  must  have 
been  unusually  thirstj'  to  have  come 
back  six  times  for  drink. 

After  the  dinner  John  Cannon  and 
Jack  Wingate  drew  quite  a  crowd.  Was 
it  the  food,  boys,  or  are  some  people 
just  born  comedians? 

Beginning  at  2  o'clock,  the  afternoon 
was  filled  with  games,  track  and  field 
meets,  and  a  football  game. 

In  the  bag  race,  the  bag  in  which 
Bobby  Strickland  had  to  run  was  prac- 
tically as  big  as  he.  Right? 

Next  was  broad  jumping.  Several 
of  the  acad;-my  students  took  honors. 
Virginia  Edgmon,  who  jumped  10  feet, 
11  inches,  took  third  place  in  the  girls' 
broad  jump  contest.  Bobby  Davis  won 
first  place  in  the  boys'  broad  jump 
with  17  feet,  5  inches.  Don  Nofio  made 
second  place.  Bob  Shcrrell  received 
honorable  mention  in  high  jumping. 
He  reached  4  feet,  4  inches.  (Some- 
time the  length  of  legs  has  to  be  taken 
into  consideration).  Both  Charles 
Lamb  and  Howard  Daniels  made  4, 
feet,   8  inches. 

Oh,  the  academy  versus  faculty  ball 
game  in  which  the  academy  won  9-3 
must  certainly  be  mentioned  too. 

At  7:30  P.M.  the  last  event  of  the 
day  began — a  program  and  a  picture 
in  the  gymnasium. 

Surely  the  day  will  be  tucked  away, 
with  the  others  already  collected,  as  a 
day  full  of  fun  and  activity  that

the  serious  points  he  put  across.

Herald,  November  8,  1887. 

He  told  us  that  if  we  only  lived  as  if  we  were  in  the  presence 

of  Jesus,  theie  would  be  no  danger  of  our  sinning.  And  we  can 

live  without  sinning  if  we  have  faith. 

Ill  one  sermon  he  told  us  how  that  by  yielding  ourselves 
i„  I  Inn  ^SL  Lould  ask  Him  for  His  Spirit,  and.  .  .  "God  hath  not 
unen  ns  ilie  spirit  of  fear;  but  of  power,  and  of  love,  and  of  a 
Minnd  niintl,"  2  Tim.  1:7. 

He  touched  our  hearts  Thursday  morning  with  His  picture 
of  Calvary,  and  asked  us  the  awful  question— "Will  your  crucify 
your  Saviour  afresh?  The  answer  rests  not  with  Pilate,  but  with 
you,  and  you,  and  you."  Then  on  Sabbath  morning  he  stirred 
every  hcatt  with  his  picture  of  heaven.  He  said  that  we  should 
strive  to  reach  heaven  just  to  please  Jesus,  who  did  so  much  for 
us,  if  for  no  other  reason. 

We  are  sorry  to  see  him  leave  us,  but  we  trust  we  shall  always 
have  with  us  the  spirit  of  the  Week  of  Prayer  by  following  the 
formula  he  told  us  about  in  one  of  his  sermons.  It  was:  spend 
15  minutes  a  day  in  prayer;  15  minutes  a  day  reading  His  word: 
15  minutes  a  day  telling  others  what  he  has  di 
we  should  spend  all  night  in  prayer,  as  Jesus

Board  Meets  Here 

The  SMC  College  Board  mtt  on  the 
CoUegedale  campus  on  November  6, 
19')2,  to  discuss  and  approve  matters 
concerning  the  college. 

The  board  approved  the  attendance 
of  several  of  the  college  teachers  at  a 
sectional  meeting  to  be  conducted  next 
summer  by  Emmanuel  Missionary  Col- 
lege and  Adelphian  Academy. 

They  also  studied  the  financial  prob- 
lems of  the  school  and  approved  Uie 
annual  audit.  Approval  was  also  given 
to  the  Annual  Work-Day  Program 
scheduled  for  May  6,  1953. 

Study  was  given  to  a  recommenda- 
tion of  the  Boulder  Council  of  College 
Administrators  to  the  effect  that  all  of 
our  colleges  charge  uniform  tuition 
rates  and  fees. 

The  annual  College  Board  meeting 
has  been  set  for  February  24,  1953_ 
It  is  to  be  preceded  on  the  evening  ot 
February  23  by  a  Faculty  Board  ban- 


...,  ......building  will  do  -    . 

the  aesthetic  value  to  the  atmosphere 
of  the  college.  Of  his  36  years  of 
teaching  experience,  Mr.  Miller  has 
spent  15  of  them  here  at  Southern  Mis- 
sionary College. 

Scrolls  on  which  were  written  the 
signatures  of  over  800  students,  faculty, 
board  members,  and  community  friends 
were  placed  inside  the  cornerstone.  A 
song,  "Some  Day  He'll  Come  Again," 
the  words  and  music  of  which  were 
written  by  Professor  Miller,  was  also 
placed  inside  the  stone. 

Elder  E.  E.  Cosscntine,  educational 
secretary  of  the  General  Conference, 
pointed  out  the  signs  of  progress  made 
by  the  college  since  he  was  an  instruc- 
tor here  twenty-nine  years  ago,  at 
which  time  construction  on  the  Ad- 
building  was  begun.  Elder 


F.  D.  Nichol,  editor  of  the  Rei^iew 
Herald,  offered  tlie  dedicatory  prayer. 

The  new  building,  which  will  be 
ready  for  occupancy  by  the  opening  of 
school  next  September,  will  house  six 
studios,  14  practice  rooms,  a  classroom, 
a  bandroom,  and  a  room  for  the  speech 
department. 

New  equipment  will  be  supplied 
for  the  building,  mcluding  new  pianos, 
an  electronic  organ  and  a  public  ad- 
dress system. 

During  the  laying  of  the  corner- 
stone Professor  E.  |.  McMurphy  read 
appropriate  texts  of  scripture.  Music 
w-as  provided  by  the  college  band,  di- 
rected by  Mr.  Clifton  Cowles.  Dr.  R. 
L.  Hammill  was  chairman  of  the  pro- 


College  store,  a  Motorola  portable 
radio  (courtesy  of  Moore-Handley 
Hardware  Co.,  Chattanooga),  a  Mit- 
chell, 3-speed  phonograph  (courtesy 
of  Fowler  Bros,.  Chattanooga),  sta- 
tionery from  the  College  Press,  free 
laundry  and  cleaning  at  the  College 
Laundry,    and    many   other    prizes. 

A  special  reward  is  awaiting  all 
those  who  reach  the  individual  goal 
of  six  subscriptions. 

As  a  weekly  prize,  a  school  letter 
will  be  awarded  the  person  turning  in 
the  most  subs  for  the  previous  week. 
During  this  chapel  program  tlie  school 
letter  was  awarded  to  President  K. 
A.  Wright.  Congratulations! 

With  the  campaign  lasting  through 
the  Thanksgiving  vacation,  the  staff 
and  campaign  leaders  of  the  Accent 
are  confident  that  the  student  body

Each  one  of  you  will  hear  a  lot  about  school  spirit  in  the

of  duty  to  serve  a  Master,  to  guide  souls  to  the  Kingdom?  You 
have  a  reponsibility  to  God,  to  yourself,  to  those  people  who  do 
not  have  the  privilege  of  obtaining  a  Christian  education,  and 
to  "The  School  of  Standards."

4  Teacher's  View . . . 

School  spirit  In  an  AcJventisr  college  depends  upon  the  in- 
dividual student's  intelligent  loyalty  to  the  ideals  of  Adventist 
education.  School  spirit  is  not  merely  loud  bands  and  shrill  cheers. 
School  spirit  is  not  necessarily  laughter  in  chapel  and  pranks  on 
the  campus.  School  spirit  in  an  Adventist  college  is  daily  and 
constant  devotion  to  ideals  upon  which  the  school  was  founded, 
loyalty  to  the  philosophy  of  life  outlined  in  the  Bible  and  in  the 
inspired  writings  of  Ellen  Gould  White. 

Of  course,  this  Adventist  school  spirit  is  not  ethereal;  it  is 
very  practical.  It  is  demonstrated  by  reliability  in  performing  the 
duties  of  an  olTicc  to  which  you  have  been  elected,  even  the  dis- 
aj^reeablc  duties.  It  means  denying  yourself  a  legitimate  pleasure 
or  cimvenieiice  if  you  are  under  obligation  to  the  group.  It  means 
irrejiroachable  conduct  also  when  it  is  dark  and  when  "nobody" 
is  around.  It  means  personal  participation  in  the  MV  Society  and 
the  Student  Association  and  their  various  enterprises  and  projects: 
it  means  loyal,  personal  participation  even  when  there  is  no  personal 
glory  and  no  tangible  "credit"  attached  to  it. 

School  spirit  in  the  Adventist  sense  means  a  great  deal  more; 
it  is  the  very  spirit  of  the  Advent  movement:  the  spirit  of  enter- 
prise and  initiative,  the  spirit  of  courage  in  holding  unpopular 
positions,  the  spirit  of  energy,  and  resistance,  the  spirit  of  regard- 
ing nothing  as  impossible  if  God  wants  it.  The  Southern  Missionary 
College  Student  Association  and  the  student  MV  Society  both 
provide  opportunities  for  demonstration  of  true  Adventist  school 
spirit,  The  loyal  Adventist  student  will  always  be  found  in  the 
ranks  of  the  willing  participants  and  never  among  those  who  sit 
back  and  keep  out.  The  true  Adventist  student  will  always  take  his 
:very  opportunity  given  to  promote  the  interests  of  the 
>vement  with  which  the  school

8,  1952— Private  Philip  Charles  Lang, 
son  of  Mr.  and  Mrs.  C.  A.  Lang,  Col- 
legedak,  Tennessee,  completed  basic 
training  recently  at  the  Medical  Re- 
placement Training  Center  here. 

At  MRTC,  the  Army's  basic  training 
school  for  enlisted  medical  men,  he 
has  received  eight  weeks  of  basic  in- 
fantry  training   and    eight   weeks    of 


the  Southern  Accent,  the  Somber 
Memories,  and  the  Cainpus  Acceti;. 

The  Student  Senate  investigates, 
crystallizes,  and  represents  student 
opinion  concerning  school  affairs.  In 
cooperation  with  the  facult)-,  the  Senate 
participates  in  the  daily  administra- 
tion of  the  school.  The  Senate  regu- 
lates and  coordinates  student  activities. 
It  -sponsors  the  different  student  com-

The  Meaning  nf  THanksgiving 

Do  you  know  the  true  meaning  of  the  word  "thanksgivin,,;- 
It  is  the  rendering  of  thanks,  the  expression  of  gratitude  for  fa^ 
and  mercies.  Stop  for  just  a  moment  and  ask  yourself  this  questio, 
What  do  I  have  to  be  thankful  for? 

Yes,  we  all  have  many,  many  things  to  be  thankful  for  i,ti, 
as  life,  peace,  talents;  but  foremost  in  our  minds  we  should  I, 
thankful  that  we  have  a  Heavenly  Father  who  sent  His  Son  „ 
die  for  us  so  we  may  have  eternal  life. 

Let's  think  about  Thanksgiving  Day  for  a  few  minutes.  \V|, 
do  we  have  this  day  anyway?  Back  in  the  early  period  of  our  hi 
tory,  the  pilgrims  set  aside  a  day  to  recount  all  their  blessing. 
Their  hard  work  of  harvest  was  ovei  and  theit  food  was  stotiJ| 
away  so  they  had  a  real  rejoicing.  Should  we  not,  too,  make  Thanb  I 
giving  Day  a  day  of  real  rejoicing  and  gratitude? 

Let's  take  a  look  around  our  own  neighborhood.  Petbap, 
there  may  be  some  not  quite  so  well  off  as  we  ate.  Could  it  be  ilui| 
they  are  more  thankful  for  their  few  blessings  than  we  ; 
out  many?  We  who  are  more  fortunate  should  share  with  tjiowl 
individuals.  If  we  let  our  light  shine  in  doing  some  small  thinj 
wp  may  help  someone  more  than  we  can  evet  realize.  Let's  aU 
■      someone  else  happier,  and  in  doing  so  we  shall  \M

to  find  ways  of  "making  our  own

a  means  of  earning  money,"  accord-

eek  Christmas  vacation  begins.  Vacation 
to  the  students  of  the  Academy,  for  it  wil

Christmas  turns  our  thoughts  to  gaily  decorated  stores  and 'q 
mas  carols.  We  can  witness  and  participate  in  numerous  aai,; 
which  are  associated  with  this  gala  season. 

Too  many  of  us,  however,  think  of  Christmas  in  terms  of  ret  I 
ing.  and  we  do  not  give  much  thought  to  giving.  Though  vA 
students  are  not  in  a  position  to  give  much  in  the  way  of  mj 
things,  we  seldom  stop  to  think  how  much  we  can  give  of  oursellj 
-  ■  ■  ;  a  kind  word  and  a  friendly  smile,  by  doing  a  thouj 
ful  deed,  or  by  just  being  helpful,  we  can  give  great  I 
other  people.  Doing  this  will  bring  to  us  the  greatest  joy  and  I 
faction  in  life  and  give  us  wealth  that  far  surpasses  any  maitJ 
wealth  we  might  hope  to  procure. 

As  we  separate  for  our  vacation  this  Yuletide  - 
our  minds  the  thought  of  giving  as  well  as 
are  not  from  abundance  of  worldly  goods,  but  ftonil 
:d  mind. ' 
We,  the  staff  of  the  Academy  Accent,  wish  to  extend  tt 
of  you  a  very  Merry  Christmas  and  a  Happy  and  Prosperous  \1 
Year!

'TIS  NIGHT 
Vinson  Bushnell 

The  city  is  sleeping. 
The  pilgrims  are  slumbering. 
All  toil  and  care  of  the 
Day  now  forgot  in  the 
Calm  and  peace  that 
O'er  all  has  befallen. 

Tis  night. 
ThL-  sheep  have  been  quieted, 
And  shepherds  are  resting. 
Some  wrapt  in  their  thoughts 
And  others  in  dreams. 
The   stars   overhead    with    silver 
Arc  bathmg  the  hills  and  the  vales. 

'Tis  night. 
In  a  stable  the  sound  of  a 
New-born  babe's  crying, 
A  mother's  soft  voice 
And  the  lowing  of  cattle 
Have   not  broken  the  calm 
And   the  peace  all   abounding. 

Tis  night. 
The  silence  is  broken,  ar:d 
Many  sweet  voices  in  hymns  of 
Rejoicing  the  hills  make  resound. 
The  shepherds  awaken,  they 
Quiver  and  tremble  till  the  angels 
Give  their  tidings  of  gladness. 

'Tis  night. 
A  star  of  great  brightness 
Leads  forward  the  shepherds, 
And  they  with  the  wise  men 
Are  brought  to  the  manger 
Where  Jesus  our  Saviour  is 
Peacefully  sleeping. 

'Tis  night.

Ovc-ryonc  likes  to  sec-  accomplishment,  whatever  it  might  be- 
tlic  last  load  of  hay  hauleii  in,  the  final  stitches  of  a  new  garment 
com|)leted,  or  the  final  test  taken  in  a  difHcult  course. 

However,  when  hardship  comes  or  barriers  confront  to  hintler 
the  ready  evidence  of  accomplishment,  it  is  easy  to  find  fault  with 
the  leaders  of  rhc  hampered  movement. 

Maybe  we  should  use  the  motto,  practiced  by  the  Sioux  In- 
dians, which  was,  "Judge  no  man  until  you  have  walked  two  weeks 
in  his  moccassins."  If  we  were  to  walk  for  two  weeks  in  the  shoes 
of  some  student  leaders,  and  if  we  were  confronted  by  their  prob- 
lems, there  would  doubtless  be  less  condemning  and  more  co- 
Most  Southerners  have  in  their  backgrounds  ancestors 
the  Cavaliers  of  England.  These  people  used  this  question 
criterion  of  their  judgment  of  a  leader,  "Could  I  do  as  well 
the  same  circumstances  if  he  were  to  cooperate  with  me  as 
operate  with  him?"  Couldn't  this  spirit  be  revived  among  u 
1952  was  an  unusual  year  in  all  respects.  The  year  was 
acterized  by  the  worst  flood,  the  worst  drought,  and  the 
plane  crash  in  history.  But  on  this  S.M.C.  campus  it 
terized  as  an  outstanding  year  in  the  realm  of  studet

Jack/e  Tr/rnage  was  dreaming  about 
skating  the  other  night  and  fell  out

her  knees  and  couldn't  walk  for  five 

Hasn't  Winifred  Melz  changed? 
We  think  it's  just  superficial,  though, 
due  to  her  recent  elevation  to  the 
worthy  position  of  being  the  third 
floor  monitor.  Maybe  she'll  return  to 
being  her  natural  self  again.

spilled  a  new  bottle  of  white  shoe 
polish  on  the  floor.  After  pondering 
a  while  and  deciding  that  Ihcy  wanted 
neither  to  waste  it  nor  clean  it  up, 
they  let  the  incident  be  known  via  the 
grapevine.  They  then  collected  all  the 
white  shoes  on  third  floor  and  polished 
them  right  from  the  floor.  The  last 
count  was  26I/2  pa""  of  white  shoes. 

We've  been  wondering  about  strange 
noises  and  mysterious  goings-on  down 
on  first  floor  and  in  the  basement.  In 
order  to  fiind  out  what  they  were, 
wc  needed  only  to  ask  Marilyn  Dennis,

The  Lord,  speaking  through  the  prophet  Isaiah,  says,  "Mine 
use  shall  be  called  a  house  of  prayer  for  all  people." 

In  Old  Testament  times  God  was  very  explicit  in  His  instrut- 
nis  KiiKcrning  the  conduct  of  His  people  in  and  about  His  sanc- 
,u  y.  He  li.id  told  them  to  build  a  sanctuary  "that  He  might  dwell

alt  with  the  oflenders.  If  God  wanted  His  people  to  show  rever-

During  the  Christmas  and  New 
Year's  vacation  many  of  the  students 
made  New  Year's  resolutions.  Some 
are  as  follows: 

"I  as  a  student  resolve  to  make  the 
best  of  every  opportunity  to  learn,  to 
make  more  friends,  to  have  a  good 
time,  and  broaden  my  interests  in 
life."  —  Wayne  Sudduth 

"To  be  and  not  pretend  to  be."  — 
Donald  Guess 

"I  resolve  to  try  to  do  the  best  I  can 
in  all  1  do."  —  Margie  Thomson 
"I  resolve  to  spend   more  time  on 
<lm      books    and    on    the    Improvement    of 
the     grades."  —  Gene  Jones 

"My  resolution  Is  just  to  do  better 
in  '53."  —  Janyce  Jansen 

"My  resolution  is  to  be  a  better  girl 
and  a  better  Christian — not  to  live  for 
myself,    but    for   Christ."   —  Barbara

mat  Are  You  Looking  for? 

"Two  men  looked  out  the  selfsame  bars 
One  saw  the  mud,  and  the  other  the  stars." 

Both  men  had  access  to  the  same  lookout  but  their  outlooks 
were  entirely  different.  One  saw  the  depths  of  despair,  the  mire 
of  trouble,  the  darkness  of,  discouragement.  The  other  man  saw 
the  star  of  hope,  the  ray  of  light  and  the  rainbow  of  promise. 

Contrast  these  men  with  your  life  here  at  Collegedale.  Are 
things  going  smoothly  or  is  the  whole  world  disagreeing  with  you? 
If  you  see  only  mud,  check  your  outlook.  WHAT  ARE  YOU 
LOOKING  FOR^  cm

DEAN'S  LIST 
First  Semester  1952-53 


So  many  gods,  so  many  creeJs 

So  many  ways  that  wind  and  wind; 

While  what  this  old  world  really  needs 

Is  just  the  art  of  being  kind. 
According  to  Webster,  courtesy  is  "politeness  combined  w' J 
kindness  "  Most  of  us  do  not  possess  this  trait  of  character! 
abundance.  It  is  something  we  must  cultivate  in  cvery-day  lifp  f 
The  little  attentions,  numerous  small  incidents,  and  sim  i,L 
courtesies  make  up  the  sum  of  life's  happiness.  A  person  whi'l 
truly  courteous  will  bring  happiness  to  himself  as  well  as  to  tfj  W 
with  whom  he  associates.  It  costs  so  little  to  be  kind  and  thougfufT 
and  yet  it  brings  rich  dividends  in  friendship.  ^ 

Peter  in  his  epistle  counsels  us,  "Love  as  brethren.  I 
be  courteous."  What  a  difference  there  would  be  in  our  cl 
in  our  homes — yes,  and  in  our  world — if  each  one  treated  oiheJ 
as  he  himself  would  like  to  be  treated!  * 

The  Golden  Rule  is  the  principle  of  true  courte;y,  and  i,  „ 
illustration  is  seen  in  the  life  and  character  of  Jesus.  We  shall  p 
through  this  world  but  once.  Shall  we  not  strive  to  leave 
with  whom  we  associate,  tbe  impress  of  the  character  of  Christ i  1

Do  these  conditions  prevail  at  SMC?  If  they  do,  isn't  there  any 
thing  that  can  be  done  to  counteract  their  effects?  Why  don  t  more 
students  vote  and  become  interested  in  school  affairs?  Let's  preserve 


^etie^i  ta  iUe  SditM 


Why  can  we  not  have  some  publicity  in  the  Southern  Accent 
concerning  the  program  for  the  promotion  of  good  English  at 
SMC?  Is  not  the  staff  of  the  Accent  behind  this  biggest  move  in 
the  right  direction  ever  sponored  by  those  on  our  campus  who  sym- 
pathize vi'ith  the  king  because  of  his  mutilated  language? 

Seems  to  me  that  with  such  a  movement  on  as  this,  it  should  have 
100  per  cent  backing,  especially  by  those  who  hold  responsible 
positions  in  our  college.  It  seems  further  that  the  Accent  staff 
nolds  a  key  position  in  making  this  progressive  program  a  success. 
If  we  could  have  the  intensive  value  of  the  program  stressed  and 
the  activities  being  carried  on  by  the  Committee  displayed  upon  the 
pages  of  the  Southern  Accent,  I  believe  that  it  would  go  a  long 
way  toward  reminding  us  as  students  of  our  part  in  the  program. 
Certainly  the  end  result  would  add  to  the  cultural  credit  of  Southern 
Missionary  College  through  her  students  and  graduates  who  will 
have  learned  the  true  significance  of  good  English.        BlLl  Brown 

We,  the  Accent  staff,  wish  to  assure  you,  the  Committee  on  the 
Improvement  of  English,  the  faculty,  and  the  student  body  diat  we 
are  100  per  cent  behind  this  "Good  English  Drive."  We  feel  that  it 
marks  real  progress  and  should  be  kept  very  much  alive  at  all  times. 
We  agree  svholeheartedly  that  it  would  be  a  great  shame  to  allow

Pathfinders  Visit 
Atlanta 

On  Jamury  31,  .it  .ihoiit  7:00  A.  M„ 
thirty  hoys  and  thirteen  girls,  .ill  mem- 
bers of  the  P.Uhfinders  Club,  left  for 
Atlanta  to  attend  a  rally.  Winifred 
Metz  and  Roy  Battle  were  t!ie  Deputy 
Directors.  Counselors  were  Ted  Dortch 
and  Howard  Kennedy  for  the  boys, 
and  Mary  Grove.  Jean  Reed,  and  Mari- 
lyn Harker  for  the  girls. 

The  Pathfinders  spent  the  day  at  the 
rirst  Seventh-day  Adventist  church  in 
Atlanta,  At  the  beginning  of  the 
chunli  service  a  flag  ceremony  was 
held,  during  whidi  a  boy  carried  the 
Stars  and  Stripes,  while  a  girl  beside 
him  carried  the  colors  of  the  Path- 
finders' Club.  The  main  body  of  the 
Pathfinders  followed  and  occupied  the 
front  seats  during  the  service. 

The  ihurch  provided  food  for  the 
Pathfinders  in  the  basement  of  the 
church.  Both  dinner  and  supper  were 
served. 

During  the  early  part  of  the  after- 
noon the  children  were  taken  to  the 
200,  where  they  could  see  the  animals, 
and  to  enjoy  nature  in  spite  of  the 
fart  that  they  were  in  a  cit)'.  In  the 
afternoon  meeting  the  ceremony  of  the 
morning  sen'ice  w;is  repeated  excepting 
the  pledging  of  allegiance  to  the  Flag. 
The  Pathfinders  then  sang  "Onward 
Christian  Soldiers."  A  panel  disc^ission 
was  held  to  promote  the  organization 
of  Pathfinders'  Clubs  in  the  Georgia- 
Cumberland  Conference.  Members  of 
the  panel  were:  Principal  Kennedy,  of 
the  Collegedalc  Elementary  School; 
Roy  Battle,  student  of  SMC;  VJCinifred

The  Male  Choms,  under  the  direc- 
tion of  Professor  Norman  Krogstad, 
made  its  first  public  appearance  in  the 
Friday  Evening  Vespers  service  on  Feb- 
ruary 6.  Their  voices  resounded  in  two 
well-known  hymns  in  the  Tabernacle. 
This  group  will  make  many  other  ap- 
pearances throughout  the  year.  Rose 
Schroeder  is  accompanist  for  this  or- 

The  girls'  chorus.  "Vox  Celeste",  is 
scheduled  for  a  public  performance  in 
the  very  near  future.  This  group,  com- 
posed of  over  twenty  girls,  is  directed 
by  J.  D.  Bledsoe,  a  senior  music  major. 
Mrs.  Bledsoe  is  serving  as  accompanist

cause  it  is  a  commencement  to  greater  living. 

We,  the  members  of  the  1953  graduating  clas 
into  a  phase  of  life  that  is  vital,  for  it  will  determ 
course.  There  are  a  number  of  questions  prevalent  in  other  graZ', 
ing  classes,  that  have  already  been  answered  for  us  here  at  Colle 
dale  Academy.  A  few  are:  Should  I  go  on  to  college,  or  get  a  l| 
and  settle  down.'  Should  I  go  to  college  immediately  after  finish'! 
academy,  or  should  I  wait  a  few  years?  Should  my  aim  be  to  ma?i

flower  bush  in  his  back  yard,  he  sud- 
denly started  screaming  at  the  top  of 
his  voice  and  ran  as  fast  as  he  could 
through  the  house,  out  the  front  door, 
around  the  house  and  back  through  the 
house  Uiiee  times.  His  bloodcurdling 
screams  alarmed  the  neighbors,  and 
when  he  was  finally  caught,  it  was 
discovered  that  a  bumblebee  had  as- 
serted— in  stinging  fashion — its  pri- 
ority to  a  particular  blossom  that  Jan 
had  also  taken  an  interest  in.  Jan 
evidently  thought  that  the  bee  was  still 
chasing  him,  but  his  sister  thought 
sure  that  he  was  having  a  running  fit. 
Now  that  Jan  is  older,  he  prefers 
to  get  his  exercise  in  the  form  of  a 
good  game  of  basketball.

the  Forum,  president  of  the  Music

the  baseball  field  whenever  there  is  a

cliosen  profession. 

It  seems  that  three-year-old  Howard

hAax  Longley,  Treasurer 

Max  Longley.  treasurer  of  the  sen- 
ior class,  was  born  in  Chattanooga. 
Tennessee,  on  June  25,  l'J3'l.  He  has 
spent  most  of  his  school  days  at  Col- 
legedale. His  hobbies  are  skating  and 
model  airplanes.  His  ambition  lies  in 
the  field  of  business. 

His  mother  tells  the  following  ex- 
perience concerning  his  childhood. 
"When  Max  was  three  years  of  age 
we  lived  on  a  rural  route.  Max  liked 
to  get  the  mail  each  day.  He  usually 
saw  the  postman  coming  and  would 
run  and  stand  by  the  box.  The  post- 
man would  have  the  mail  folded  and 
would  hand  it  to  him.  One  day  the 
Sotilheni  Tidings  was  all  the  mail  we 
received.  His  father  and  I  were  stand- 
ing in  the  driveway  when  he  brought 
it  and  handed  it  to  one  of  us,  and 
very  disgustedly  said,  'Dat  all  de  mail 
we  got  and  it  fo'  de  church.'  That  has 
been  a  saying  of  ours  ever  since,  when 
we  receive  the  Th/ziigs."

50  Aptitude  Tests 

On  Tliursday  evening,  March  19,  an 
unusual  opportunity  will  be  given  to 
fifty  SMC  students  not  only  to  take 
the  most  modern  Aptitude  Test  in 
existence,  but  also  to  help  in  its  stand- 
arization. 

The  California  Test  Bureau  has  had 
under  w.iy  for  a  number  of  months  the 
development  of  a  battery  of  •■Multiple 
Aptitude  Tests."  The  tests  are  now 
crintcd  and  a  representative  group  rif 
students  in  universities  and  colleges  all 
over  the  United  States  are  given  the 
jr'''?en°sl  ro'ZmtlvefLrt  the 
Institutions  for  the  purpose  of  stand- 
nrJizine  the  test.  That  is,  the  perform- 
:;;iceof'these  students  will  establish  the 
official  norms  for  the  test. 

Each  of  the  participating  students 
will  receive  a  profile  showing  how  he 
stood  in  comparison  with  all  the  stu- 
dents who  participated 


of  the  jury. 

The  contestants  were  introduced  by 
numbers  which  they  received  by  ballot 
before  the  program  began  in  the  fol- 
lowing order:  Ted  Graves,  Wesley 
Spiva,  Harmon  Brownlow,  Robert  Col- 
lins, and  Heber  Votaw. 

All  of  the  contestants  S|ioke  on  the 
alcoholic  problem  except  Robert  Col- 
lins, who  presented  an  interesting 
study  on  cigarettes.  Collins  staled  that 
in  every  package  of  cigarettes  there  is

AN  EXECUTIVE  HAS  NOTHING  TO  DO 
As  everybody  knows,  an  executive  has  praclically  nothing  to  do 
—Thai  is,  nothing  to  do  except: 

To  decide  what  is  to  be  done;  to  tell  somebody  to  do  it;  to  listen 
to  reasons  why  it  should  not  be  done,  why  it  should  be  done  by 
somebody  else,  or  why  it  should  be  done  in  a  different  way,  and  to 
prepare  arguments  in  rebuttal  that  shall  be  convincing  and  con- 
To  follow  up  to  see  if  the  thing  has  been  done;  to  discover  that 
it  had  not  been  done;  to  inquire  why  it  has  not  been  done;  to  listen 
to  excuses  from  the  person  who  should  have  done  it  and  did  not  do 

To  follow  up  a  second  time  to  see  if  the  thing  has  been  done; 
to  discover  that  it  has  been  done  but  done  incorrectly;  to  point  out 
how  it  should  have  been  done;  to  conclude  that  as  long  as  it  has 
been  done,  it  may  as  well  be  left  as  it  is;  to  wonder  if  it  is  not  time 
to  get  rid  of  a  person  who  cannot  do  anything  correctly;  to  reflect 
that  the  person  at  fault  has  a  wife  and  seven  children,  airil  that 
certainly  no  other  executive  in  the  world  would  put  up  with  him 
for  a  moment;  and  that,  in  all  probability,  any  successor  would 
be  just  as  bad  or  worse.  .  .  . 

To  consider  how  much  simpler  and  better  the  thing  would  have 
been  done  had  he  done  it  himself  in  the  first  place;  to  reflect  sadly 
that  if  he  had  done  it  himself  he  would  have  been  able  to  do  it  right 
in  twenty  minutes,  but  that  as  things  turned  out  he  himself  spent 
two  days  trying  to  find  out  why  it  was  that  it  had  taken  somebody 
else  three  weeks  to  do  it  wrong;  but  to  realize  that  such  an  idea 
would  strike  at  the  foundation  of  the  belief  of  all  employees  that  an 
executive  has  nothing  to  do.— F.  C.  Bierne  in  Adver/isit/g  Age. 

"I'VE  BEEN  TOO  BUSY"

If  the  facts  were  known  you  would  find  that  the  best  leaders 
work  more,  study  more,  play  more  and  pray  more. 

The  old  adage  "If  you  want  something  done  give  it  to  a  busy 
man  and  he  will  do  it,"  is  true  at  CoIIegedale.  Franklin  Roosevelt's 
philosophy  was,  if  you  have  something  to  do,  do  it  right  and  on 
time  and  don't  talk  about  it. 

If  the  philosophy  of  this  great  statesman  was  adopted  here

While  keeping  Chwc  CLmipmi's

him  to  take  the  bobby  pins  out  of  her 
hair.  Birii'ie  McConiiMhie  is  almost  as

a  baby  crying  can  sound  like  a  siren. 
When  there  is  a  fire,  the  poor  fire- 
man catches  it.  He  may  be  at  the  Main- 
tenance shop,  at  the  Store  talking  with 
a  salesman,  or  he  may  even  be  taking 
a  shower,  when  the  siren  goes  off.  He 
has  to  drop  cver)'thing  and  start  run- 
ning. If  it  takes  over  three  minutes  to 
get  the  truck  manned  and  out,  every- 
one wants  to  know  what  the  trouble  is. 
If  the  truck  happens  to  get  out  in  less 
than  three  minutes,  the  fireman  is  ac-

After  the  truck  is  on  the  road,  there 
are  always  those  who  think  it  isn't 
going  fast  enough,  so  they  creep  up 
behind  in  their  car,  thinking  to  give 
the  truck  a  little  help.  It  is  a  law  that 
no  cars  are  to  follow  less  than  200  feet 
behind  a  fire  truck,  but  the  poor  fire- 
man on  the  rear  end  can't  tell  it.  If 
he  should  happen  to  fall  off,  there's 
always  a  car  20  feet  behind  to  end  his 

Another  law  greatly  neglected  at 
CoIIegedale  is  that  of  pulling  over  to 
the  right  when  you  hear  a  siren  or  see 
a  blinking  red  light.  A  fireman's  life 
could  be  so  much  easier  if  motorists 
were  more  considerate  of  them. 

Another  thing  that  worries  a  fire- 
man is  for  cars  to  pass  the  truck. 
When  they  do,  the  driver  often  has 
to  slow  down  to  let  them  by,  then 
when  he  gets  to  the  fire,  there's  that 
tar,  in  the  way,  slowing  him  down 
again.  Some  people  even  pull  out  of  a 
drive-way  in  front  of  the  truck,  caus- 
ing the  driver  to  slow   down,   losing

Miss  Ester  Andrcasen,  head  of  the 
home  economics  department,  said  that 
children  now  are  accustomed  to  choos- 
ing for  themselves  with  the  cafeteria 
system.  The  importance  of  knowing 
how  to  ihoose  a  balanced  diet  is  very

,md  st.tri.hcs,  and  how  it  is  possible 
to  get  a  completely  balanced  diet  in  a 
vegetarian  diet.  They  will  point  out 
that  the  reason  some  children  kick  cer- 
tain vitamins  or  minerals  isn't  because 
of  kick  of  food,  but  because  of  poor 
judgment  in  the  choice  of  meals.  Miss 
Andrcasen  said  that  although  breakfast 
should  be  the  most  important  meal  of 
the  day.  often  it  is  not. 

In  the  four  classes  they  will  con- 
duct, the  girls  will  demonstrate  what 
a  good,  balanced  meal  consists  of,  com- 
pared to  a  poorly  chosen  meal.' They 
will  also  point  out  that  many  teeth 
and  bone  weaknesses  result  from  lack 
of  judgment   in   the   choice   of  one's

Joyce  Banks 

The  day  of  April  15,  1935.  wit- 
nessed the  arrival  of  Joyce  Banks. 

She  came  to  Collegedalc  in  1946 
and  since  has  fallen  in  love  with  the 
place.  Her  ambition  is  to  become  a 
nurse.  Some  of  the  things  she  likes 
are:  sewing,  skating,  and  playing  the 
piano. 

Her  father  has  always  had  a  dislike 
for  pc-ople  to  eat  noisily  at  the  table. 
He  taught  his  children  at  a  very  early 
age  to  eat  quietly.  One  day  while 
Joyce  was  living  at  West  Palm  Beach, 
Florida,  the  family  was  going  to  have 
company,  a  professor  from  Washing- 
ton Missionary  College.  They  served 
soup  at  that  meal.  While  they  were 
eating,  Joyce  discovered  that  the  pro- 
fessor was  making  more  noise  eating 
his  soup  than  she  was.  In  the  middle 
of  her  meal  she  stopped  and  waited  for 
everyone  to  finish,  especially  noticing 
the  v/ay  the  professor  was  eating.  Fin- 
ally, when  everyone  was  finished  she 
s,<id,  "Daddy,  why  did  he  make  so 
much  noise  when  he  ate  his  soup.'" 
Then  he  replied.  "Well,  when  you  get 
to  be  a  professor  of  a  college,  you  may

Chattanooga,  Tennessee. 

One  day  the  phone  rang  at  Joann's 
home.  Her  mother  went  to  answer  it. 
While  she  was  talking,  thrce-and-a- 
half-year-old  Joann  decided  this  would 
be  a  good  time  to  eat  some  of  the 
applesauce  cake  her  mother  had  just 
finished  baking  and  frosting.  The  table 
on  which  the  cake  was  setting  was 
next  to  the  stove.  As  she  reached  for 
the  cake,  her  cotton  dress  touched  a  hot 
burner  and  began  to  burn,  Joann 
rushed  to  her  mother  crying  at  the  top

Pre-Nurses 

It  was  dark  and  cold,  but  what  did  it 
matter.  The  Prc-nursing  class  was 
headed  for  better  days — four  beautiful 
sunny  days,  in  fact,  in  that  Land  of 
Sunshine,  Florida.  Ever)'one  was  in 
a  quandary  as  to  what  sort  of  clothes 
to  take.  We  were  still  wearing  sweaters 
and  heavy  winter  things  here,  but  at 
the  advice  of  the  girls  who  lived  in 
Florida,  most  of  us  tucked  in  a  few 
cotton  dresses.  How  glad  we  were  that 
we  had,  when  we  arrived  in  the  midst 
of  ail  that  lovely  sunshine. 

It  took  six  cars,  whose  owners  were 
Mr.  Gardner,  Mr.  Gott,  Elder  Beckncr, 
Mr.  Kulhman,  Miss  Stoneburner  and 
Gladys  Starkey,  to  speed  us  on  our 
happy  way.  The  cars  all  left  at  different 
times — from  midnight  to  four  o'clock 
— on  Sunday  morning,  March  1.  The 
loud  roars  that  you  heard  later  that 
day  were  the  cheers  of  the  future 
Florence  Nightingales  as  they  crossed 
the  Florida  line.  'To  many  this  was  the 
first  trip,  to  others  Florida  was  home, 
but  we  all  knew  that  a  good  time  was 
in  store  and  we  were  not  disappointed. 

When  we  arrived  that  evening,  we 
were  assigned  our  sleeping  quarters 
and  given  our  meal  tickets.  We  were 
warmly  greeted  and  a  warm  hand  with 
a  smiling  face  attached  handed  us  a 
copy  of  the  program  that  was  planned

WSMC   Progresses;

Your  campus  station.  WSMC,  is  on 
the  air!  For  the  past  three  weeks  this 
station,  located  at  "ifiO  on  your  dial, 
has  been  broadt.tstine  to  the  students

are  being  made  to  have  the  station 
hooked  up  to  the  trailer  camps  as 
well  as  to  the  dormitories  by  Sundav. 
Mnch  22.  All  of  this  takes  time 
money—lots  of  both.  But  the  station 
IS  moving  on,  and  with  your  help  it 
will   someday   reach   its  goal— perfec-

North  Carolina,  the  Mull  family  was 
made  very  happy  with  an  cight-and- 
thrif-fourlh-pound  baby  girl.  They 
named  her  Ins  Mai'.  Since  she  doesn't 
like  the  Mae,  most  of  her  friends  call 


When  Iris  was  ten  years  old,  she 
moved  with  her  family  to  Columbia, 
South  Carolina.  While  there  she  at- 
tended Columbia  Academy,  where  she 
served  as  assistant  S:ibbath  school  sec- 
retary and  pianist  for  Sabbath  school 
and  the  Missionary  Volunteer  society. 

As  a  child,  her  hobby  was  playing 
with  paper  dolls,  but  since  she  has 
grown  older  her  hobby  has  turned  to 
music.  Her  ambition  is  to  become  a 
secretary  and  a  housewife. 

Once  when  Iris  was  about  three 
years  old,  she  had  been  playing  in  her 
playhouse.  She  left  it  and  went  toward 
her  house.  Upon  reaching  the  steps, 
she  saw  some  tumbling  weeds.  The 
wind  was  blowing  them  and  they  re- 
sembled spiders  crawling  toward  her. 
She  stopped  and  started  screaming  at 
the  top  of  her  voice,  "Mama!  Mama! 
Come  here !  Here  are  some  spiders,  not 
the  kind  that  can  crawl,  the  kind  that 
can't!"  No  doubt  she  dislikes  spiders.

Seventc-cn  years  ago  last  December

Chattanooga  and  Collegedale. 

Barbara  enjoys  sewing  and  playing 
the  piano.  Give  her  a  chance  and  she 
will  go  swimming,  skating,  and  horse-

elected  and  I  am  confident  that  you 
will  discharge  this  duty  to  your  utmost 
capacity. 

The  loyalty  that  the  student  body 
has  demonstrated  in  the  past  will  hold 
true  for  the  future  if  each  of  you  will

cal courage  and  intellectual  capacity 
be  equal  to  human  aspirations,  then 
your  officers  for  1953-54  will  do  their 
part    to    attain    the    goals    that   have 

There  are  several  senate  positions  yet 
to  be  filled,  and  there  will  be  the 
budget  for  the  operation  of  next  year's

unreserved  attention.  Again  1  say 
thank  you  for  the  faith  and  trust  that 
you  have  placed  in  me.  I  shall  try 
to  correct  errors  where  shown  to  be 
errors  and  I  shall  adopt  new  views 
as    fast   as   they    shall   be   come    true 

I  trust  that  each  one  of  you  will 
make  the  most  of  your  opportunities

that  the  summer  will  find  you  wit- 
nessing for  God  and  Southern  Mis-

It  is  my  hope  that  next  school  year 
will  be  a  successful  one  and  will  bet- 
ter prepare  you  and  me  to  serve  our 
F.ther  in  Heaven  that  His  Kingdom 
may  soon  be  brought  into  being  and

Five  Years  Ago  -  Dr.  F.  O.  Rittenhouse  accepted  the  call  to  be- 
come Dean  of  SMC.  He  was  at  that  time  known  as  the 
most  experienced  dean  in  the  denomination  and  his  four

Dr.  Hammill,  in  receiving  the  dedi-

points  outlined  in  the  dedication 
which  were  used  as  a  guide  that  quali-

These  were  kindness,  tactfulness,  his

problems,  and  his  years  of  service  he

Caivin  Butler,  a  freshman  from 
Goldsboro,  North  Carolina,  won  the 
grand  prize  for  the  best  suggestion 
turned  in  by  student  workers  during 
the  current  school  year. 

He  began  his  work  on  the  campus 
of  South;rn  Missionary  College  in  the 
Engineering  Department,  working  a 
totil    of    1,500    hours    there    before 


Lilah  —  Teach  English  ture  factory.  Bec:use  of  his  unusual 
ability  for  that  type  of  work,  he  bc- 
:ame  a  student  foreman  in  the  milling 

iervice  in  that  departr.ient,- 

His  suggestion  concerned  the  niill- 
ng  of  perpendicular  rails  in  the  desks 
iianufacturcd  by  the  woodshop.  There 


t  S3ao  < 

a  SIOQ  I 


100% 


are  eight  such  rails  in  each  desk,  and 
four  of  them  must  be  notched.  The 
previous  method  of  notching  required 
the  use  of  two  machines,  taking  about 
a  half  day  for  enough  rails  for  150  or 
200  desks.  Under  the  new  method 
suggested  by  Calvin,  cnougli  for  2,000 
desks   can  be    run   on   the   double-end
