THE MNEMOSYNE OUR FACULTY. What is the real source of the principles and spirit of an institution like Huntington College? That source, needless to say, is not to be found in the buildings and equipment of the institution. Necessary as these things are, they are of only secondary importance. In a sense, perhaps, that source may be found in the student body or in the church which is responsible for the institution. And yet what factor has more to do with making a school what it is than its faculty? The equipment represents, so to speak, the machinery of the mill, the church represents the builder and owner, and the student body the grist which is turned out. But the miller himself — the one who operates the machinery and does the work — is the faculty. We love Huntington College because of what she stands for and be- cause of what she therefore means to our lives. We believe in her as a truly Christian school. And it is to her faculty that we look with affection and pride as the chief source of those high ideals and Christian principles wrapped up in the words H. C. What would our Alma Mater be without President Ellabarger ' s able leadership, without Dean Searle ' s cheerful and skillful management, — in a word, without the loyal devotion and worthy character of every one of her professors and teachers? Should we ever forget Dr. Clay ' s inspiring prayers. Miss Vandament ' s appeals to our honor and good judgment. Prof. Kindell ' s admonitions. Miss Wyman ' s enthus- iasm, and Coach Johnson ' s work for clean athletics, — then, indeed, we shall have forgotten our Alma Mater herself. One of the chief advantages which a small college has over a larger institution is the increased opportunity it offers for personal contact be- tween students and faculty. This opportunity, which means so much es- pecially to the students, is found at few colleges to the extent that it is at Huntington. Student body and faculty here seem bound together in one big family. Everybody knows everybody else, and the influence of personality is great. We are glad to believe that every student leaves Huntington College a better man or woman for his contact with the mem- bers of our faculty. Twenty-eight
