Thanks - - -
This issue of the SOUTHERN ACENT introduces a new volume publi:
by a new staff. Last year's staff deserves ihe applause of all for its unt
efforts in producing a paper that proclaimed the standards of Souihern
Missionary College in'a manner worthy of emulation. The summer school
staff richly deserves our appreciation for publishing the summer issues. Only
those attending summer school can fully understand the problems of a summer
staff.
You Can Keep Resolutions. . .
Resolutions—They are good things, if you keep them. Everyone has
made them this last week—study hard, get lessons every day, take lecture
noles carefully, follow explicitly a well balanced schedule, and eat.
Probably, so far, these resolutions have been kept—ihese first three days
of school.
Next week, and the week following and the week after that, college life
will present deviations from resolved aims. Presto! That resolution joins
innumerable millions.
But, it is asked, aren't all resolutions broken? The answer is NO. If
you don't believe it, look at the honor roll that will appear in this paper in
ten weeks. Observing the daily routine of those listed there will reveal a
carefully outlined program in which concentrated study is given a major
art.
Per'"Many of them are students, just like anyone else. Only they kept their
resolves. YOU can do it, too.

It's Up to You
The ACCENT campaign opened with a goal of 4000 subs. That's only
an average of eight subs per person. And the reward! If eighty per cent
‘of the student body turns in five subs per person by November 14, the
Thanksgiving vacation will be extended 24 hours! That day will be called
"Accent Day.”
But to succeed in this enterprise, every student must do his part. If
ever a chance was given to demonstrate united, cooperative action, this is it.
The campaign itself is being carried on in a different manner. This year
the usual ''side competition" will be eliminated. And with the elimination of
competition and noisy ballyhoo, it is hoped that the usual reason of not
participating in the campaign because of its noisy trimmings will be elimi-
nated. Everyone can and must do his part. This time for the campaign to
be a success and the reward obtained, everyone must work. The “other
fellow" idea can't apply.
Today Southern Missionary College Students launched the largest co-
operative enterprise in its history! To obtain the fruit of the reward, every
student must do his part.
Show your school loyalty, your school spirit; pull together
victors together.
and we'll be
d. h.
Perseverance Pays
The story is told of the Northwest Indians, who, when drying their
winter's supply of salmon, hung the fish on trees and racks thirty-three feet
above the ground, A tourist asked an old Indian why their fish wore always
hung thirty-three feet above the ground. Flies," he grunted.
The Indians had discovered that flies do not rise of their own accord
fo more than thirty-two feet above the ground, so they fooled the flies by
hanging the fish one foot above the fly line.
With just a little more effort, the flies could have reached the fish. But
they always stopped trying at thirty-two feet.
Again, an old prospector, digging in the mountains of California, sold
out to a reclaiming company and returned home a pauper. As the new owners
resumed operations, they struck a fortune in gold just six inches below where
the old fellow had stopped.
Friends, how often do we give up just short of a goal? How often have
we received a low grade when just a litle more effort would have made the
top? How often have we given up a difficult job just before we could have
finished successfully?
Iftany one quality could be counted as the key to success,
doubtless be perseverance.

WEEK OF PRAYER
Youth in Spotlight
Like a shaft of light breaking upon the surface of a darkened stage was
this week of spiritual emphasis, the Week of Prayer, at Collegedale. Out-
lining the drama to be played by a chosen few, attention was effectively
placed on the efernal seriousness of the last closing acts of earth's history.
The destiny of God's Plan of Life depends in a large degree upon how the
youth of today shoulder the responsibility of a lost world.
You, fellow students of Southern Missionary College, yes, you, are star
actors in an exclusive performance in which your own souls, as well as those
of your neighbors, are at stake. The spotlight of the church, of the world,
of the universe is being trained on you. You can let this Week of Prayer,
the inspiration it has imparted, the responsibility it has demanded. pass into
oblivion as you live on in the same course you have followed; you can
resign yourself to a complacent negligence of the events transpiring around
you, drawing this world into a net of degradation and slavery, or you can
turn this college into a vital, throbbing stronghold, a point of offensive,
culminating in the great latter rain of the Holy Spirit. The decision, friend,
is upon you.
Christ, the Captain, Master of Ceremonies. is now beckcning you onto
the stage. What will you do? rw
ARMISTRICE DAY
We Need "Peace of Mind"
Next Friday, we on this campus, as well as the nation in general, will be
observing Armistice Day. Our minds will be turned back to that day, No-
vember 11, 1918, when World War | ended. In looking back over thirty-one
years, only a part of which | have experienced, | find myself wondering if
those dead ‘‘died in vain." Since that time of “making the world safe for
Democracy," we have passed through a fow years of peace, the "'crash” of
'29, the indescribable World War II in which we fought for the ‘four free-
doms," and now we find ourselves in the muddled, complex, neurotic and
mystifying "Atomic Age."
We have only to look at the trouble between capital and labor, crime
on the rampant, and governments striving for what seems to be "World
Power’ instead of the so-much-talked-of "World Peace," to understand why
men's minds are failing them.
The auestion in my mind does not concern the atomic bomb and who
will use it against what nation, hut wheiher the minds of men won't
"blow un! first. Only a cracked mind will ever bring on another wor'd war.
Friday morning, November 11, during that two minutes of silence
when the nation as a whole has ceased from hostilities, let us offer an earnest
prayer to God, thanking Him for the measure of peace we have and asking
for a pouring-out of His Spirit upon us that we may have the peace of

The ACCENT drive ended last
Monday evening with a history mak-
ing total of 4005 subscriotions iurned
in by the deadline.
On ical D Day, Monday, the
campaign intensified, with students
traveling to Chattanooga and other
towns convincing merchants of their
need for ACCENTS. Jewelers and
dry goods merchants, forists and
bankers all gave to help make ihe
campaign the success it was.
The drive was climaxed Monday
evening with an hour long, last re-
sort attempt to gain the last fow
subs fo hit to 4000 mark—goal for
the campaign.
Sparked by the first concert a
pearance of the College Band, s
dents dipped down into their pockets
and came out with the last few
hundred subs, ending the most suc-
cessful ACCENT campaign in the
history of the school.
Climazing the entire campaign,
Dr. Rittenhouse, college dean, an-
nounced, when the goal was safely
passed, that November 28 is of-
ficially ACCENT DAY—that Thanks-
giving vacation is extended by one
day.
From there on everything is his-
tory. The goal chart was nainted to
overflowing, congraiulations
passed around, especially to Harold
Phillips, campaign manager, and
Fred Sanburn, ACCENT business
manager, who had directed the en-
fire campaign.

COUNTRY LIVING

Churches Ponder Rural Life
Country living occupied the minds of many Protestant, as well as
Catholic, leaders this week.
Over 700 rural clergymen and mission executives met this week for a
three-day convention in Lincoln, Nebraska. Representing over forty Protes-
tant denominations, these leaders sought a solution to the problem of
zens who neither farm nor live in town but are rural
residents with jobs in urban centers.
In Columbus, Ohio, Catholic leaders were urged by directors of the
National Catholic Rural Life Conference to seek a better balance between
Catholic urban and farm population.
In a resolution the directors said:
"In keeping with its general trend toward urbanism, only 5 to 8 per
cent of the American Catholic population live on farms whereas approxi-

The attitude of these two groups of religious leaders is interesting in
the light of the fact that for many years Seventh-day Adventists have en-

church history and theology. —

The speakers asserted that under
peace conditions it would be possible

the culture of different nations would
‘ome in contact with cach other and
bring about a better understanding of
the people. A startling fact was re

schools as it normally costs to go to
schools here in America

A WORD TO THE WISE
TALENTS ARE VALUABLE
Here at Collegedale there are many ways in which to spend one's time,
both profitably and otherwise. Attention is patously] place ‘on the aspects
of hard work, diligent study, sufficient recreation, an
social entertainment.
This is all good. College life should be well rounded and balanced. But
every now and then, one is startled by the thought that some, and perhaps
to a less degree, a great number of us, in participating in these activities,
become so engrossed in the interesting projects at hand that we lose sight
of the reason we are here at school.
True, college life is interesting, and should be; some say college years
are the best years of our lives.
in trivialities and matters of small moment. Attending college is a pri
That should not be an excuse to indulge
lege
that is not allowed even to all the deserving. We as students, therefore,
have a responsibility to those less fortunate who are left behind. We should
avail ourselves of every opportunity to improve our talents,
for we will be
held responsible for failure in using them.
Christian youth have but one task before them, that
of carrying the
advent message to the world. Let's keep that goal always in mind.

Gettysburg Address
Two score and nineteen hundred years ago, our Father which
is in Heaven sent forth to this world His only Son, conceived in
humility and dedicated to the proposition that all men have an
equal chance to eternal life in heaven.
Now as before time we are engaged in a great war with sin
and with evil, testing whether we with equal chance of life in
heaven are able long to endure.
of that war. We have come to such a time as this to dedicate
SII our lives to the service of Him who willingly gave His life
that we and our forefathers might live.
It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this.
In the largest sense we can dedicate, we can consecrate,
can submit our lives.
The world will little note nor long remember what we do
or say here, but it can never forget what He did here.
It is for us the Advent people, rather to be dedicated here

“Cooperation” Has Meaning

It means so many things—little ones—that most people overlook.
It means your keeping quiet while your roommate puts his brain on the
rack for ideas that aren't stagnant with age
It means handing assignments
and ACCENT copy in on the deadline (or maybe even a few hours before,

ACCENT
ACCREDITATION
ms UP TO YOU
Now that we have a chance for accreditation what are you and |
going to do about it. The departments are growing by leaps and bounds.
Fhe buildings, the facilities for teaching, and more teachers receiving degrees
in educational pursuits, might affect to a large degree an accreditation,
but in my estimation there are a number of intangibles that will measure
up to quite an extent, intangibles that concern you and me. It all simmers
down to this.
The college is not functioning to provide work for teachers. It is here
to educate men and women, that they may harmoniously develop "the physi.
cal, the mental, and the spiritual powers," and that they may realize and
fulfill their individual responsibility to God, to themselves, and to their
fellowmen, If | were a committee member surveying this college, | would
look for the fruit of this labor, the products of this college, and discover
whether or not this college is living up to its purpose of existence,
Should we not, in order to meet the seemingly reasonable requirements
and satisfy our own conscience, consider and strive and fulfill the purpose
of this college?
(A committee member might rightly look for good faculty and student
cooperation, level-headed students, progression between freshman and
senior accomplishments, happy students, industrious students, a clean campus,
GOOD ENGLISH, student participation, good teacher techniques (a teacher
who knows but can not impart knowledge is not a teacher), attitude of stu-
dents in classes, and the scope of student responsil es, We must bear
this in mind, It seems only a fact that WE WILL BE COMPARED TO OTHER

1950
OUR PUBLICATION SYMBOL
It is the aim of the students of Southern Missionary College to exemplify
the traditional hospitality of the South. Students, teachers, and subscribers
alike feel that the charm of the Southern lady and the gallaniry of the
Southern gentleman are typically portrayed on the cover of the 1949 "South-
ern Memories." Since this symbol was so widely acclaimed as representative
‘of Southern Missionary College, the "Southern Memories" Staff voted to use
the same type cover in different colors on the 1950 edition, with the thought
in mind of inaugurating this as a traditional cover for the College, through
the years to come.
In the recent contest for the “Accent” masthead, the pattern chosen
from the many ideas submitted was the same as that used on the "Memories"
of 1949. Both the "Accent" staff and the "Southern Memories" staff wish
to correlate more closely the publications, and consider this a step in that
direction.
THANK YOU.
Margaret Jo Urick, Editor, SOUTHERN MEMORIES
MIEM
RIES
The ACCENT staff wishes to thank the "Southern Memories" staff for
the privilege of using their "couple" on the ACCENT masthead. We feel
that it is only proper that the iwo publications be tied together in this
manner in view of the fact that both are striving to aid the growth of
Christian education in the Southland.
Rober! Earl Chastain
On the night of December 25,
1949, Robert Earl Chastain had a
fatal. motorcycle accident fifteen
miles from Atlantic Union College,
South Lancaster, Massachusetts. He
was buried Monday morning, January
2, 1950, in Collegedale Memorial
Park.
Robert was returning to his school
from a dinner appointment with
friends, Losing control of his motor-
cycle, he was thrown against a stone,
suffering head injuries. He died the
next morning in a hospital without
having regained consciousness.
Robert was born October 5, 1929,
in Springville, Tennessee. After seven
and. one-half years of elementary
FY
school, Robert and his family moved
to Ooltewah, Tennessee. He com-
pleted his elementary education, four
years of academy, and two years of
pre-medical training at Southern Mis-
sionary College. In the fall of 1949
he left for Atlantic Union College to
obtain the necessary upper division
work to prepare him to enter the
University of Tennessee Medical
School, Memphis, Tennessee, where
he had already been accepted as a
member of the 1950 class. At Atlan-
tic Union College he was campaign
manager of the "Lancastrian" the
college newspaper
His body arrived home December
31. Monday morning, January 2,
funeral services were held in Lynn
Wood Hall. Elder C. E. Wittschiebe
read the biography and President
K. A. Wright spoke words of com-
fort to the family and friends. The
body was then taken to Collegedale
Memorial Park for interment.
Robert is survived by his parents,
Mr. and Mrs. Chalmer Chastain; his
sister, Frieda; and his brothers Elmer,
Chalmer, and Andrew. His fiancee
was Margaret Dawkins, of Montgom-
ery, Alabama.
Long words of mourning and praise
are not necessary, but the memory
of this sincere Christian youth will
not be soon forgotten by his friends.

THE SOUTHERN ACCENT
January 27, 1959
OUR AIMS
Are you, as a student of Southern Missionary College, able and willing
to take as your aim the aims and objectives of your college? Your success
in college will be achieved only to the degree in which you, either consciously
‘or unconsciously, measure up to these objectives. Briefly stated, they are:
|. SPIRITUAL—To establish an unswerving personal allegiance to the
principles of the Christian faith and to develop a distinctly Christian philos-
ophy of life asa basis for the solution of all personal and social problems.
2. INTELLECTUAL—To gain the knowledge necessary to independent
and creative thinking and to achieve a continuing intellectual curiosity.
3. ETHICAL—To acquire those ethical and moral concepts which are
approved by the enlightened conscience of mankind and to achieve an at-
tilude of tolerance toward the rights and opinions of others.
4, SOCIAL—To develop an acquaintance with the approved social
practices of cultured men and women and to participate heartily and com:
fortably in those recreational activities which contribute to the further de-
velopment of a well-balanced personality.
5. AESTHETIC—To gain an acquaintance with and an appreciation of
the masterpieces of literature and the fine arts.
6. ClVIC—To acquire an ii gent understanding of the principles of
government and to develop a willingness to accept the responsibilities and
privileges of citizenship.
7. HEALTH—To gain an intelligent understanding of the principles
which govern the functioning and proper care of the body.
8. VOCATIONAL—To acquire a genuine appreciation of the true
dignity of useful labor.
These are the objectives of Southern Missionary College; make them
yours. b.d

THE SOUTHERN ACCENT
FORUM REPORT
Women Talk About Meu, Men Talh

BILL DysinceR
Have you ever wondered what
would happen should a period be de
yoted to a discussion of boys by the
girls and of girls by the boys? Just
such a discussion was carried on. re
cently in the Men's and Women's
Residence Hall Forums, and the re-
ports from these forums were, to say
the least, interesting
Quite singularly, the reports seem
to parallel cach other. To begin with,
the girls and the boys had something
to say about the dining room. The
fellows complained about the tardiness
of the girls, and the girls called the
fellows “eager beavers” for being in
such a hurry to cat, The girls had
suggestions in regard to theic being
cated by the fellows. “Please don’t
ush us 100 hard,” they said, and
added that they don't like the way the
fellows all scat themselves in
corner and talk about things very
boring to girls, The fellows had a
Bicw remarks to make about the girls
loitering around their entrance and
pecking their heads around before
coming down, but all were agreed on
the fact that there nceds to be at least

The girls “wished the fellows would
Jearn the proper technique in asking
for a date” and wondered “why don't
more of the fellows date?” The fel
lows were more interested in discussing
pro and con the question of the girls
asking them to the girls’ reception
They did say something to the effect
that they were reluctant to take out
the girls because even one date caused
so much gossip, but the girls stated
that they did not consider a few dates
seriously. “It is merely for entertain-
ment,” they said, “'so there is no need
of being afraid of us.”
The fellows ended their discussion
with the statement that “any courtesy
extended to a lady should not be re
J by the recipient as a duty,
as an act of politeness.
The girls enumerated the qualities
they liked in the boys. They like a
fellow “who is friendly and not con-
ceited, one who dresses appropriately
for the occasion, always watches his
health habits, and who shayes once in
a while
Both reports ended with statement
of mutual regard for their opposities

Question: What is your opinion of inaugurating the use of
ads in the ACCENT to increase circulation?

the advertisers

Commander Donald B. MacNiillian,
internationally known explorer and
geographer, will oresent his film por-
traying his Arctic expeditions, on
February 18 in the auditorium.
Commander MacMillian is a vet-
eran of twenty-seven excursions to the
frigid northlands,- having traveled
northward every year since 1909 ex-
cept 1918-19 and 1935. His Arctic
cruises on board the seasoned
schooner, "Bowdoin," total more than
100,000 miles. His most recent one
commenced in June, 1948, and was
sponsored by Bowdoin College and
the Cleveland Museum of Natural
History. Weighing anchor and put-
fing out to sea from the coast of
Maine, he visited Ellesmere land, a
se!dom frequented spot, and fraveled
8,400 miles. He and his fifteen col-
leaques investigated glaciers and
studied plant, animal, and bird life
while sailing to within eleven degrees
of the North Pole.
Commander MacMillian's contribu-
tions to geography and science have
been accepted by world-wide socie-
ties. In 1927 the Elisha Kane Gold
Medal was bestowed upon him for his
remarkable service to science. In 1944
the United States Congress awarded
him with a Congressional Medal for
Distinguished Service for the part he
played while accompanying Admiral
Perry in the 1909 expedition.
This is the second lyceum of the
second semester. The reqular admis-
sion will be charged to non-students.

Off Schedule
Many of you who read this artic’e have the habit of being late to ap-
ointments or are forming this bad habit. If you don't believe it, iust take
notice of the “off schedule” folk that attend the next public meeting, com-
mitfee meeting or any other scheduled appointment. Why are there so many
people who are careless of other people's time. This is just a habit and it is
just as easy to form a good habit as a bad one.
This attitude of carelessness, indifference, disregard, or whatever you
choose to call it, is especially noticeable where time is at a premium. A
college student should learn to use his time to his best advantage if he is
to succeed.
The old saying, "Your right ends where my nose begins," is very true in
this siluation. When a person makes another wait and waste time, he is
taking undue liberties. The person who has not the courtesy to regard
another's time as valuable as his own, does not deserve the position that
affords him the opportunity to take another's time:
One late comer caused me to waste a considerable amount of time
recently and wrecked what little schedule an edi/or can have. After taking
‘a retrospective of the situation, | vowed that | would make every possible
GHort never to be late again. What are YOU going to do?
The idea struck me when | was filling out the division of religion question-

Cooperation...
Every Monday and Thursday evening, the College band can be heard
practicing in the chapel of Lynn Wood Hall. The casual observer will notice
that on an untried piece, the performers often get out of beat. The majestic
music accomplished by their coordinated action is transformed into a maze
Tf incoherent sounds. As long as the musicians keep in time, each doing his
part WITH the others, the effects are superb. Let one person get out of
thythm, and the whole selection is ruined.
The College Band is just one phase of college life. The students who
participate in that organization comprise barely one twelfth of the student
body. But their example is exemplary for every student activity, organization,
and enterprise.
Every group has its own leader. Only a few key positions are available
to any group at one time. In student activities, where there is a wide selec:
tion of qualified individuals, these top jobs usually rotate from one individual
to another. All the members realize that all of them can not be the
leader at the same time—twenty-four persons cannot be recognized when
the maximum possibility is six. One divided by four does not leave a whole
number.
School spirit, school loyalty, will cause every participant to work with
others for the common good. It is an exoression of confidence for the
Sudent body to support wholeheartedly the program and policies of the
incumbent leaders. dh

Would you like to see the music appreciation period rein-
stated in Monday chapel hour? If so, why; and if not, why not?
Following a busy class routine on Monday morning last year,
it was always inspirational to listen to the music appreciation as
presented by Professor Miller. It was very soothing and restful to
Jay aside class work and enjoy the music
Yes, | think so. Many new students could gain a knowledge
of and acquire a taste for good music. It does much to relax
tense nerves from the morning grind of studies.—Paul Haynes.

Music was one of the major subjects taught in the schoo's of ihe

Yes, | do want a music appreciation period in the

to music which every student in this college can enjoy, appreciate,

“Actions Speak Louder Than Words"
Is this saying what we wou.d call an
old-time expression. or does it offer a
challenge to anyone today who is try:
ing to better himself? As | think of
the way in which we as students con-
duct ourselves during the hours we
are in school, | cannot help feeling
that improvement could be made,
Actions may be defined as enter-
rises, and if we realized this, we
might be more courteous and more
thoughtful. Conduct is the manner in
which we guide or carry ourselves. As
students we should form correct
habits of deportment so that we may
develop into better ladies and gentle-
men.
From now on let us respect each
other as ladies and gentlemen so
that our actions will say that we have
benefited from the habits that we
have formed. ww.

Gable Urges Look at Peaceful
Possibelities of Atomic Power
THE SOUTHERN ACCENT
SENIOR SKETCHES OF 1950
Dr. Luther Gable, in his lecture,
Saturday night, February in the
college auditorium, urged his audience
to look beyond the use of
power as a weapon of destruction to
its peaceful possibilities. “Any man,
woman, or industry which
adapt itself to. this
energy will soon be as outmod
the canal boat,” he stated
While demonstrating “black light,
Dr. Gable explained that there are
many times as many frequencies which
We can't see as there are
can see. These include radio, tele
vision, radar, infra-red, and‘ ultea
violet rays, their only difference being
that they are different frequencies and
lengths of the same kind of wave
In his lecture, Dr. Gable made many
Biblical
scientific miracles and in so doing re
vealed that he was, and for a number
of years had been, a Seventh-day Ad
ist. There was a question and
answer period following his lecture
Such interest was evidenced in his lec
ture by the student body that Dr. Gable
tentatively approved plans for his re
turn to conduct a theolo
workshop in the spring

sicist, is at present teaching at the Chi

g the prayer seems
| would much prefer the organist playing an “Amen
chord" immediate'y following the orayer.
We could then be seated at the
end of the chord.—Carolyn McClintock
Aren't college students mature enough to contro) themselves? Why
can't we remain standing for a few moments and then be seated without any
chord. The present system is too regimentary—George Webb
| like it dhe way it is. It is orderly and appropriate. | only hope the
students will soon learn to remember the pause and not sit down too
soon.—Thomas Mostert
| wou'd encourage the entire student body to join with ihe speaker
in saying amen, and then all sit down. Of course these needn't be loud, but
audible —Chauncey Laubach
I believe | wou'd prefer the one offering prayer to pause a moment
affer saying amen and then say a second amen, after which the audience
could sit down. But any musical signal should be played on the organ rather
than on the iano.—Vera Bass
It seems to me the oresent system is not as effective as it might be.
The period between the amen and the chord is not long enough. Possibly
the amen could be eliminaled from the prayer and played on the organ
after an interval of a few seconds.—Harold Flynt
If the organist wou'd play a few measures of appropriate music following
the prayer, | believe it would add more to one's enioyment of the prayer
than would a sounded chord on the piano.—Ruby Teachey
Note: Of 13 people interviewed, eight agreed with the first opinion
quoted above.

Principal's Message
My work with and for the
youth of Collegedale the past
year has strengthened my faith
and confidence in the oncoming
generation. | cannot agree with
some older people who chroni-
cally think of the younger gen-
eration as a problem and a per-
plexity. The young people grow-
ing up in our midst are our
most precious possession. They
are our own flesh and blood,
beset by the handicaps we have
bequeathed to them. but giving
promise of success despite the
handicaps. God believes in
youth; that is clear from the
sacred record. God entrusted
the leadership of the Advent
Movement to young, inexperi-
enced but consecrated youth.
Let us be thankful that the Lord
does not get discouraged about
young people. God bless our
youth and the efforts of par-
ents and teachers to quide and
train them for time and eter-
nity.

Southern Missionary College, the
only senior college of its kind in tho
South, has as its chief purpose the
education of workers for God. Each
year the college sends forth into the
work of God, many youth “rightly
trained." Many of these seniors are
filling places of responsibility in the
organized denominational work. The
college, with almost twice as many
graduates this year, is well on the
way in placing these seniors in suit
able employment.

PRESENTING —
THE PRESU
OF the classes and groups finishing
curriculums and leaving the campus
yearly, none is more active, more lively
than the annual production of pre-
nurses. With but a year to make them-
selves known, their influence felt, this
spirited group forms a nucleus for
much of the eminent jollity and in
nocent escapades that oil the grinding
wheels of college life
They have to study also! With six:
teen and a half hours of
courses a semester, chemistry, anatomy
and psychology, and micro-biolog,
plus others, they perform feats of
little short of intellectual
intense
learning
miracles.
The center of this vivacious group
is the pre-nursing club. Officers are
clected twice yearly, giving a wide
opportunity for the students to take
leadership in the interests of their
chosen profession
Members of this group come from
places as far apart as Massachusetts
and California, (one claims both as
her homes), including Honduras and
India. Seven have the privilege of
claiming Florida as their home state
with Pennsylvania running second with
three, California and Georgia tie for
third place with two each, while In-
diana, West Virginia, Virginia, Mary-
land, South Carolina, Michigan, and
Ohio claim only one each.
The current president of the club
is Delphia Weir, Orlando, Florida.
She is the daughter of a doctor and
nurse. She graduated from Highland
Academy last spring and will enter
training at the Florida Sanitarium and
Hospital next fall. Making medical
calls: with her parents first inspired
her to want to become a nurse. Of
course admiration of the uniform and
later a desire to help others entered
into the final decision.
Past president of the club, Joyce
Boykin, daughter of missionaries, was
born in Kodaikaral, India. She first
saw the need for nurses in the mission

Sanitarium and Hospital for her train

Helen Marie Cowles is from Mus-
kegon, Michigan, and is in second

medical profession runs in the family

tory life. It is so easy to talk about
the lighter side of life, but we do
have our serious moments. Since the
spring Weck of Prayer has just ended
it seems this is the ideal time for just
such a column
First, I would like to mention the
morning worship periods. They are a
constant source of inspiration to the
fellows when their need is greatest,
early cach day. It helps tremendously
in drawing us closer to God and in
keeping us there throughout the day
Then, too, since the one in charge
each week is a faculty member, never
the same one twice, we receive the
benefit of the experience and under:
standing of a large group of devoted
Christian workers,
OF course the real spiritual back
bone in the dorm is the Monday eve

really does thrill one's heart to hear
the sincere prayers of carnest Christian
young men.

gatherings that much can be done
cither for or against the spiritual good
Many times
these discussions lead into points of
doctrine and faith, allowing oppor
tunity for witnessing to the power of
the gospel.
In closing I would urge the fellows
to guard those moments together and
make the most of them. Truly the op:
portunities of a greater spiritual de:
velopment are exceedingly broad in
our dormitory. If we fail to receive

Spriug Fever
With spring, fever. It hasn't rained for five days, and if thac
isn’t a harbinger of spring, I give up hoping. Though ic was a
mild winter, it is nice to return to ball games, marshmallow roasts,
and outdoor studying.
The rohins compete with the monitor's
bell in awakening the students each morning, and that flowering
crab tree, which is
in front of the library and has been blooming
so timidly for nearly two months, is at last trying a few tentative
leaves.
Isn't it fortunate that spring coincides with the last quarter
of school. Otherwise how would we ever face final examinations
and research papers?
Papers written before picnic
That is a reminder though to get those
season; even then I'll probably have
to bury myself in the basement of the library to be able to con-
centrate.
But spring comes only once a year, and isn't it a good thing.
Otherwise no one would get anything done.

Have you ¢ver noticed the small un.
important looking building that is
located behind the new science build-
ing? Have you ever wondered why
it is there and where it came from?
What good use could a one-roomed
building with only two doors and two
windows be? A tool shed perhaps?
Let's investigate the history of this
small structure
According to reliable sources, this
small building was part of the original
Thatcher plantation. It was built by
Mr. Thatcher -for-his-little daughter
as a playhouse or doll house. This
was_ probably. several years before the
Southern Training School moved from
Graysville, Tennessee, to the Thatcher
land which they bought in 1916. It
was at that date that Collegedale was
born. The college was then known
as Southern Junior College
During the transitional year of
1916, the little Thatcher doll house
was uscd for the first president's of-
fice by the then presiding president,
Leo Thiel. Later, as the school grew
the doll house was used as a music
studio by Mr. Adams. Time sped on
the college expanded some more. The
music department outgrew first
studio, so the doll house was allotted
to the farm manager who had it
moved several hundred feet up the
hill behind the present Broomshop. It
was used there to store bee hives and
other farm supplies.
its
From this location on reservoir hill
the doll house was moved during the
year 1918 to the approximate location

NUMBER 15
Constitution Vote Planned by
Student Association Next Week
As Southern Missionary College
was raised to senior college status at
the end of the recent war, the move-
ment toward organized student parti-
cipation in the daily administration of
the college was started. Under the
experienced quidance of Dr. Ambrose
L. Suhrie, for many years nationally
known as an organizer of democratic
student-faculty co-operation, first the
student personnel committee and
later the three college student forums
were organized. These forums as
well as the four college classes com-
bined as constituencies of the over-
all student board of management
known as the Student Senate. Since
this body was elected wholly on the
part of the student body, it has
functioned as the organized represen-
tation of the S.M.C. students.
Under the management of the
Student Senate the student govern-
ment movement at Southern Mission-
ary College has become recognized
as having possibly the best organized
‘and most comprehensive program of
|) student-leadership education and stu-
dent participation in college adminis-
tration ever attempted within the
Seventh-day Adventist denomination.
Lawrence C. Scales was president of
the Student Senate 1947-48. Roscoe
C. Mizelle presided during 1948-49.

have worked with the eight standing

the policy-formulating units of the
college faculty and administration.
The Student Administrative Council,
composed of the four executive of-
ficers of the Student Senate, meets
regularly with President Kenneth A
Wright, Dean F. ©. Rittenhouse,
and other college officers. The Mar-
ried Couples’ Forum, the Men's
Forum, and the Women's Forum meet
weekly to discuss campus issues and
voice student ovinion. The four col-
lege classes are well organized and
sponsor a number of projects and ac-
tivities. The members of the Student
Senate have been elected by the
various constituencies whereas the
chief officers of the Senate have
been elected directly by the student
body as a who'e.

On Our Coming Election.....
Spring time brings election time to Collegedale. From now
until June I see two-hour Senate meetings, balloting, speeches,
and campus discussions. We will not be satisfied though when
the dust has settled if we do not use the best method in electing
our candidates.
Our practice of late has been to place two candidates before
the student body for election, except in those isolated buc possibly
fortunate cases where only one man was found suitable and willing
to carty the responsibility of the office. For example, if we are
filling ten offices, we need 20 students. It is only logical that,
except where special qualifications are required, the students would
automatically be placed according to ability. The top student for
the top office and so on down the list. If A and B are up for
office a, and C and Dare up for office b, under this procedure I
must select either A or B for office a. The disadvantages are: 1. It
excludes one or the other from holding any other office unless only
one office is filled in each chapel period, allowing for the losing
candidate to be nominated for another office. This not only takes a
month of Sundays to accomplish. but also allows for embarrassment
to the student whose name comes up two or three times. 2. This
same setup could allow a pressure group to steer the election by
having a weak student and a strong student candidates for the same
office. 3. This system also gives no opportunity to register a disap-
proval of both, because the students are elected on a majority of
votes cast. 4. It also tends to equalize the votes between the candi-
dates by giving the voter two alternate choices—not voting for
either, or voting for the other one. This in some cases brings em-
harrassment to the student because he feels that the bare majority
doesn’t represent the best interests of the students.
The two advantages are psychological. It gives one a choice
between two candidates, which on the surface seems democratic.
Secondly, it seems easier co vote for one of two students than to
register a disapproval of one candidate.
The system of placing only one student before the student
body for approval or disapproval is not a railroading system be-
cause the voter should only vore after he has thoroughly studied the
candidate as to past performance and ability for future servic
The advantages of the one candidate procedure are: 1. Having
only one student nominated for each office would tend to secure
the election for the best qualified student. 2 Students would not
be running against each other. 3. It would cut the nominating time
in half because one student would only be considered for one
office in the usual case, 4, It is the system we use in the denomi-
When you vote next week, remember the senate has used a
non-senate committee to study candidates and has nominated candi-
dates who they feel will give you good government.
The senate nominates the first candidates, this coming Sunday

From the President —
Greetings, Southern Missionary College students,
past, present, and
future. Shall we lift our eyes and look to the future, perhaps beyond the
end of the school year and to the summer and early fall of 19507
As usual, there will be an important summer school opening on Monday,
June 12. On the closing night
of summer school thi:
year, or August II,
there will be a commencement address and the conferring of cellego degrees
upen the summer seniors of 'S0. Summer school will be followed by camp
meeling here on ihe campus, beginning August 17.
The fact that it is a
conference session fo'lowing shoriy after the General Conference should
add real interest to the occasion.
Early Seo‘ember will bring ihe onening of the elementary school and
tho Collegeda'e Academy.
Imagine the thrill in store for the chemistry,
physics, biology, and mathematics students this fall as they initiate the brard
new c'ass-rooms and labora’ ories in the sc’ence hall

These students will find
the old equip-
ment moved from the administration building. Even ‘he old students will have
to learn their way around again in the administration building after ihe re-
modeling, fo'lewing tho removal of the science equipment.
The oullook for enrollment is exceptionally good. Early in the fall term
the Col'ege will welcome a group from the Southern Ascocialion for a
special study. With a new science building and a much-sirengihened faculty,
ihe prospects for early accrediting are most encouraging. Last year every
graduate was placed, and already the majority of ihe class of ‘50 have
accepted calls. Some careful observers predict that it will not be long before
ihe Southern Missionary Colleae admissions commi'tee will have a very
delicate task if we are to hold the enrollment down to jhe 500 which at the

VETERANS? LAST CHANCE
All veterans who are cligible for
education or training under the G. I
Bill of Rights and have not undertaken
such training, as well as those who
have commenced but have act com
pleted their course, may be vitally
affected by the July 25, 1951, date
reports the Veterans’ Administration.
"The law provides that a course of
education or training shall be initiated
before the termination of four y
after the date of discharge or by July
25, 1951, whichever is the later, and
that such education cannot be afforded
beyond July, 1956, except for those
listed under the Volun:
Act of October 6,
veterans who
tary Recruitment
1945,"
The veterans who have not taken
advantage of the educational benefits
of the G. I. Bill should take heed that
the opportunity for educational aid is
passing by
Southern Missionary College rec-
ognizes that Adventist education is
expensive and has made plans to
reduce the cost of attendance at
S.M.C. for 1950-51. This has been
done by reducing tuition charges,
creasing student labor pay rates, re-
ducing book charges and require.
ments, and by reducing cafeteria
charges. Furthermore, Southern Mis-
sionary College and its allied in-
dustries will make strenuous efforls to
increase work opportunities for stu-
dents so as to accommodate a larger
number of well-paid student workers
during 1950-51.
TUITION RATES for 1950-51 have
been reduced approximatey 5 per
cent, The largest reductions are for
students who work a large part of
their way and who tarry from seven
to twelve credit hours of class work.
For these students the average re-
duction in tuition will be 8 per cont
under the 1949-50 charges.
STUDENTS PAY RATES have been
increased an average of 15 per cent
since September, 1949. By Septem-
ber, 1950, the average increase over
the previous year will be between 25
and 30 per cent. This, with the re-
duction in tuition, will make it pos-
sible for the ambitous and capable
student to work-his way at Soulhern
Missionary College during 1950-5! at
least as easily as at any time in the
past and more easily than at most
other colleges.
BOOK EXPENSES hereafter will be
less because book requirements are
to be somewhat reduced, and an
effort will be made to repurchase
them for resale.
MARRIED STUDENTS have the
advantage of the College Store
where prices of groceries and many
other articles are approximately 20
to 30 per cent lower than in ordinary
stores. This may mean a substantial

SMALLER CLASSES
Why should a freshman bury his individuality in the crowded lecture
sections of a huge university or college whore his identity is so easily reduced
fo a number on a professor's class record book? The good college is a place
where each student retains his personal significance.
Limited student enrollment in the classes is one of the educational
assets of Southern Missionary College. There is one teaching faculty mem-
ber for every eleven college students. No class is large. When a course
attracts too many students, several sections are organized. The individual
student is well taken care of by the instructor in matters of assignments and
study progress as well as testing
In a number of upper biennium courses each student is given an in-
dividual research project to deva'op on his own under the supervision of the
professor.
STUDENTS TAUGHT INDIVIDUALLY
Each professor takes time for persona’ conferences with each of his
students. Any student may take his problems to an experienced counselor,
and special problems are studied by various members of the faculty who by
training and experience are specialists in various fields of human life and
No effort is shunned to help the student understand himself and
his potentialities
At the beginning of the freshman year the student's differing aptitudes
and achievements are reviewed. When necessary, tests are administered io
make certain the student's individual needs. A counselor among the faculty,
particular'y suited to the student's needs and interests, is selected for each
new student. Frequent informal conferences are arranged. The counse'or
helps to select the classes and courses most advantageous to the student's
plans. No Freshman is assigned to classes by hard and fast curricular ru’es
which would not meet his particular needs. If, as a freshman, the student
is handicapped by a slow reading rate or ineffectiveness in English, priority
is given to enrol'ment in courses especially designed to improve writing or
eading skills. Simiarly, other needs are provided for.

SERVICE
— classes, Southern Missionary College
provides a Testing and Counseling
Service available to all students with-
out extra cost. This service is under
ihe competent direction of Dr. Thos.
W. Steen, one of ihe denomination's
foremost experts in vocational gui-
dance and student counseling. Aided
by a group of solected faculty mem
bers, Dr. Steen provides personal
assistance to any student and any
member of the student's family.
Among the counseling services are
those dealing with personal problems,
religious attitudes, difficulties with
class work or curricular requirements,
veterans’ affairs, part-time employ-
ment, financial aid, housing, scholas-
tic problems, etc. Aptitude testing,
remedial reading clinics, and special:

features of the S.M.C. student Test-
ing and Counseling Service. What
in many other institutions would
mean considerable outlay for fees,
tests, etc., the S.M.C. student re-
coives free,

PAST—Phyllis Price
Oh, how I would love to be a
senior! Just to be able to walk around
with my chest thrown out and my
head high, a most dig look, and a
slight strut in my walk would be al
most too grand.
You can always recognize a senior.
When he is in class, he's the smartest

the same. He has privileges that make
Us poor juniors just green with envy
The teachers practically give them their
grades without their doing a bit of
studying and they positively never “get
on to them’ for not getting their les
‘ons. All they have to do is flash those
red and white caps around and every
thing is all right. They speak and we
underclassmen” hop. I'll finish my
comments with saying, “Good luck,
seniors, I wish I were in your shoes.

THE SOUTHERN
ACCENT
June 4, 1950
ITS FINISHED
Today, as the seniors received their diplomas and degrees, I
shared with them the contented feeling that something had been
accomplished. Editing a school paper can give one many headaches,
but it can also afford many pleasant moments. The educational
benefits are well worth the effort. Ac the end of the course and
looking back over the sometimes rough and rugged road, I feel
deeply grateful to the many loyal supporters of the ACCE
From the typists who do much work but who receive little credit,
to the workers in the College Press, all have shown a cooperative
spirit in the publishing of the paper.
1am happy that my cwo loyal associates were rewarded for
their untiring efforts this year. Ray is next year's editor of the
AcceNT, and Dave is the new editor of the Southern Memories
I can assure you these publications will be well worth having next
year.
‘There will be changes in the paper next year. There will be
improvements made. The ACCENT, as well as S.M.C., is growing,
and there can be no growth without improvement. Support your
paper. With you behind it there is no limit to its success; without
it can not hope to reach its goal. fy
WHAT HAVE WE DONE?
The year is gone. No sooner had the year started than the
days and weeks began slipping by in blurry succession. And now
it's over. Parting brings thoughts and memories of the historical
year. And what has it held?
Many saw the culmination of four or more years’ work when

graculated.
Memories fill the thoughts of each departing student. Memo-
ries of success and failure, joy and sadness, run in endless array in
their minds.
But what has been accomplished this year? Could the time be
considered as well spent? We say yes. This year, more than any
other year, has seen advancements in every phase of the program
of Southern Missionary College. The school is on the road to
accreditation, the science building is nearly completed, and a new
ball diamond has been put in use co develop the physical as well
as the mental side of the student.
Student activities have taken a definite stride forward this year.
‘A new constitution has been adopted, the publications have enjoyed
their usual success, and the ACCENT reached the highest subscription
record in the history of the college. Students have branched out
into more phases of college life. Memorable are the College Day
events, entirely planned and conducted by student committees, the
successful One-World program made numerous friends for the
school, and the lasting effects of Arbor Day, which will eventually
beautify the campus with flowering shrubs.
This year has been exceptional. But it need not be the apex of
advancement, It has taught lessons and given experience that can
be utilized in years to come. We're on the march, let's keep in step.

Much Work Ahead
This is the time of the year when people on college campuses
are saying good-bye. Students are relaxing after the pressure of a
busy school year; they are anticipating a summer of ease before
they return to school.
But for some, duties are now intensified. Their work begins
where it ends for others. This is true for the seniors, and it is
also true for those in student office. Even though it is vacation,
their responsibilities do not lessen.
To those students who are leaving the campus for the summer,
J would like to recommend that they remember what they leave
behind. Remember Southern Missionary College, and what it has
done for you; remember your friends, and what they've been to
you; remember the SOUTHERN ACCENT, and what it has meant to
you. Support it in every way you can, for it represents your
school, your friends, and you. rw

THE
Our Fathers’ Heritage
It was on a July day years ago thac sages of thirteen
colonies pledged themselves with death itself co defend the state-
ment they had just endorsed—The Declaration of Independence.
Franklin, Hancock, Washington, Jefferson—for them the principle
of free institutions, of the unalienable rights of equal men were
paramount. For them principle knew no compromise with tyranny.
Tt was that way 174 years ago. How is it now?
In this period of impending peril, Christian youth must know
no compromise from their principle of living. Joseph, Moses,
Daniel, Luther, Ellen G. White—the names are well known, those
whose principles were not compromised. It has been that way since
time was scarred by sin. How is it now with us? Principle must
know no compromise! f.g.
This Oue Hope We Hold
The determination of the state department to combat com-
munism, not only with economic aid, but with croops and arms,
has precipitated a showdown with the leaders of the communism
movement for world domination, The Truman doctrine, the
pledging of this country to combat the spread of communism
wherever it might occur, has reached its fulfillment on the thirty-
eighth parallel in Korea. It is impossible to determine the real
motives behind the invasion of South Korea by communist troops,
but it is certain that the crisis there will possibly determine the
events of the next few years. If it was an attempt on the part of
the communists to see how far the United States would go in
backing up its anticommunist threats, they now know as they face
American troops and equipment in Korea, Such a situation might
cause the planners of world revolt to move more cautiously and
with less haste in their plans to overthrow the forces of capitalism.
This could bring about an equilibrium in the world powers.
If, on the other hand, the atcack in Korea was a move under:
taken regardless of the outcome, regardless of the course pursued
by the United States, the world might well be facing the immediate
onset of a World War III.
The prospect of another World War with its greater poten-
tials for human annihilation through the atom bomb and super-
hydrogen bomb covers the world with a cloud of gloom and sends
chills of fear and despair through the core of the minds of men
But there is one hope, one salvation, that shines through and
above the rumors of war and utter destruction. Nearly two thou-
sand years ago the Prince of Peace spoke of a kingdom without
war, without fear, and That kingdom is yet to
come, and despite the movements of the moment on this earth, that
kingdom will come.
Whatever the days ahead hold in store, this throught and
knowledge of the final destruction of human strife can soothe
the mind and prepare the heart for the impending conflicts of the
present hour dh

Admissions Office
A record-breaking four hundred
seventeen applicants have been ac-
cepted by the admissions committee
for the approaching school year.
This is higher than any number of
accepted students on similar dates
in previous years. Following the usual
pattern, Tennessee and Florida rank
first and second with North Carolina
among the large contributors. Ohio
and Michigan place high also. One
surprise is the number of students
secepted from Oregon. From with-
out the boundaries of the United
States, acceptance has been granted
oquests from Canada, Cuba, Puerto
Rico, India, and Lebanon. Inquiries
from other nations are being handled
by the admissions committee.
Housing facilities are rapidly being
filled, the dormitories anticipate com-
plete reservations, and the trailer
parks will be filled to capacity. A
good number of the prospective stu-
dents are married. Ex G. I.'s are still
mailing their applications to gain
advantage of the expiring G. |. bill
of rights. Although the largest
proportion are freshmen, several new
pper division students have been
accepted.

Evenings
The secretary has informed me that your application to come to
Collegedale has been accepted by the Admissions Committee. As President
of Southern Missionary College | consider it a real privilege io extend to
you a pre-arrival and pre-registration welcome.
All indications are that we shall have the largest attendance and we
hope the best school year in the history of our college. We have accepted
well over a hundred more applications than last year at this date.
Already
the calendar is filling uo with important and interesting events.
If you are a new student, whether freshman or higher classman, you
should plan to be on the campus not later than Wednesday, September 13.
All students, both new and old, have a very important meeting on Sunday
evening, Seotember 17. Orientation for new students will begin Wednesday
evening the thirteenth under the direction of Dr. Ambrose L. Suhrie, our
educational consultant. Registration of all students will be under the direc-
tion of Dr. Floyd O. Rittenhouse, dean of the college,
Early events of moment of the school year will be the Faculty-Student
Reception, the visitation of the Southern Association Accrediating Com-
mittee, Founder's Day program on October |8—we look forward to having
the President of the General Conference as our guest speaker—then the
fall Week of Prayer during the latter part of October.
You, my friend, have made an important and wise choice when you
decided to come to Collegedale; and it is the prayer of your faculty and
staff that we may help you to find and to follow God's plan in every detail
that your training will lead to a life of service.
Those who have been off the campus but for a few weeks will find many
changes and additions. We may have to furnish a permanent guide for
all as they go about the Administration Building because there are so
many changes now that the science classes and laboratories have moved
to the new building. The customary peace and quiet of Collegedale surely
has been interrupted this summer by the sound of the carpenter's hammer.
Do not disappoint us, and know that I shall look forward to extending
a personal grecting to you on registration day, if not before.
Cordially yours,
Kenneth A. Wright, President

To Indian Pageant,

Training for in-service teachers be-
came a vacation, Thursday, July 25,
when thirty-eight summer school stu:
dents went on a tour to the Crafts-
man’s Fair, the Great Smoky Moun-
tains National Park, and the Cherokee
Indian Reservation
The first stop on the trip was Gat
linburg, Tennessee. Here at the an
nual Craftsman’s Fair mountain folk
demonstrated their skill in various acts
and crafts. S.M.C. onlookers were
intrigued as they saw beautiful articles
being produced from the looms, the
dye-pots, the crude lathes, the pottery
wheels, the forge, and the wood cary-
ing knives
Even though Collegedale is in the
hills some of the “tourists for a day
had never really been in’ the moun-
tains. They were thrilled, they re-
ported, from climbing high into the
Smokies, visiting Newfound Gap, and
Clingman’s Dome! Some of the party
were fortunate enough to see a bear
and take its picture!
On down the North Carolina side
of the mountain the students made
their way to the Cherokee Indian Res-
ervation. Here they met members of
the Cherokee tribe, took snapshots

Steen Relates Plans, Purpose,
Of College Freshmen Entrance Tests
The new freshman of S.M.C. al-
Ways comes point blank, face-to-face
with a series of tedious tests almost
upon his arrival. It is a royal intro:
duction to college life that scts the
pace for the months ahead. For the
value of these tests, the first of which
is scheduled to be administered by th
school’s Counseling and Testing Serv-
ice, Thursday morning, September 14
Dr. T. W. Steen, head of the special
bureau, was interviewed for his opin-
ion’ of the matter,
The importance of the testing pro
Bram cannot be over emphasized,” he
stated. “Suppose you were to start out
on a business venture or even an ex:
tended vacation," he illustrated, warm.
ing to his subject, “and an uncle had
said ‘I have deposited some money
in your name at the bank for the
purpose of this undertaking.’ W/hat
he inquired, “would be the first thing
you would do?
Would you start your business first
or would you determine from the
bank the amount of money your uncle
had left? This,” Dr. Steen pointed
out, “is the purpose of the freshman
tests, The student nceds to know what
his abilities and aptitudes are. His
counselors need to know this informa-
tion to help the new student take a
program that will fit his capacities and
interests as well as limitations
As for the tests themselves, Dr.
Steen explained that the tests that
will be given this fall will cover four
arcas. “First,” he said, “there is the
psychological examination. This re
veals,” he stated, "to the student and
his counselors a great deal about his
scholastic aptitudes. Another test deals
with his vocabulary, reading speed,
and comprehension. This is of great
significance,” he explained, "because
it shows how much he can accomplish
in each hour of study, as well as in
dicate the special help that he needs
in learning to read more rapidly
A third test,” the doctor
d, “deals with his knowledge of
the English language and covers such
divisions as grammatical usage, punc
tuation, spelling, sentence structure
and vocabulary
These tests, evaluated Dr.

but the tests show what his present
capacity is
These three tests are used during
freshman days. A fourth test
ever, is taken, that determines his
personality scale. “After all,” Dr
Steen observed, “one’s success is de
how-
termined more by his personality than
by any special talent that he may
have." This test is interpreted pri
vately where the pe nell problems
that might show up in the test can be
discussed and suggestions and aid can
be given to further the development
of his personality
These freshman day tests are by
means the limit of the service
offered by the counseling agency,” re-
lated Dr. Steen, “In addition to these
are over 100 additional tests. Their
fields vary from vocational aptitudes
to difficult personality problems.” The
service is offered free. So if you feel
like taking a test when the teachers
have theit array of mental
puzzlers, or are downcast about an
inferiority complex, or are having
some kind of social problems, just
drop into the offices of the testing
and counseling service and Dr. Steen

RAIN AND SCHOOL FINISHED?
The proverbial silver lining on the opposite side of the
clouds became a growing doubt in recent weeks. Day after day
black and ominous clouds billowed over the hills and plummeted
down into Collegedale’s valley. Deluging down the pavement
and eroding the slopes, the torrents swirled and gushed to the
saturated lower areas of the campus. Jagged bolts of lightning
wierdly patterned themselves across the darkened heayens, baring
her flashing teeth and viciously threatening to wreak havoc where-
eyer she could bite. The old and solid foundations of terra firma
shuddered a fearful assent from the crack and rumble of thunder.
But the sylyan vestures of nature seemed to deepen and pros-
per under the convulsive rages of the elements. Frogs multiplied
prolifically, and during the meager periods of sunshine the birds
resumed their symphony. It was approaching the summer session's
end when one morning Ol’ Sol sprang over the eastern mountain
with all his blinding eagerness. He, too, appeared polished by the
abrasive effect of the weathe:
Perhaps the fitful wrath of the skies porcended the summer
school’s dizzy schedule and the sunshine—of course!—a full release
after the examinations. Who knows? fg

The last editorial of every school paper editor is traditionally

Special thanks is in order for the two work horses of the

editor of the ACCENY next year, and Violet Calloway, an in-train-
ing elementary school teacher. These two have carried the brunt of
