I J . ALVIN BROWN HALL by J. W. Webb MY first impulse when asked to be Dean of Men was of rebel rebellion at the idea. Corralling two boys in the home had taken considerable time and energy. But imagine that number multiplied by seventy five! The President said do it, so it had to be done. That is the spirit of all of us, faculty, boys and all. Because of that spirit of backing up President Brown 's wishes, the boys have responded wonderfully in putting over the job of our living together. This job is like a cold bath, not so bad after you get into it. Living close up to a group of earnest boys and young men is not a bad ex- perience for any adult who is sympathetic with their clean wholesome fun, and their various problems. The more thorough one understands the spirits of youth, the more highly will he appreciate their independence of spirit of youth, their courage, their sense of justice, and their mutual understanding and good will. Never have I seen so harmonious a group, nor one more loyal to the school. The dormitory has in a large way become their home. The cheerful, tidy, homelike appearance of some of the rooms predict well-kept, orderly, homes in the future. The type of entertainment and conversations there and a peep in on their de- votions at retiring time add to the beauty of the prospect of those future homes. No, with Big Teel as chief burden bearer, it is not so bad to be a referee, a counsellor, a nurse, a doctor, a proctor to the boys. Though you may not be able to read a magazine article, take a bath, a shave, or a nap without hearing a knock at the door, one is nepaid by the confidence and good will of the group. 9
