Paul Leslie Garbe The head of the Bible Department, Professor Paul Leslie Garber, was noted among Biblical scholars for his work on the Howland-Garber reconstruction of Solomon ' s Temple, a model which was kept at Agnes Scott. Mr. Garber did supply preaching and followed affairs in Palestine and the Middle East with interest. In the summer of 1954 he was a representative to the world council of churches. BIBLE DEPARTMENT Mr. Samuel A. Cartledge, a visiting professor, has been on the faculty of Columbia Seminary for twenty-five years. He once spent a sabatic year in Switzerland and in the Holy Land and was able to recount details of his trip to help to make his lectures interesting. Since his chief hobby was photography, he had taken many beautiful colored slides of Palestine, which he showed to his classes. Twinkling eyes and a smile for everyone were char- acteristic of Miss Mary Lily Boney, assistant professor. Students admired her gaily decorated office and the colored slides which she, like Mr. Cartledge, had a hobby of taking. She and Mr. Garber were faculty advisors of the Bible Club.
