JOHN D. WILLIAMS Treasurer Fifteen Years of Service Men do not find enduring satisfaction in life by owning something. It is only by becoming something, that life is at its best. The experiments of the last few years have been for many men, an adventure through which they have discovered their real wealth. With the loss of income they are discovering the strong sustain¬ ing power of a strong religious faith; and those abiding virtues such as courage, honor, charity. The deepest ' satisfactions of life—those which come from sharing and serving—remain secure. To our young people who are graduating from College this year, you will enter the paths of a most interesting age, but our faith in the goodness of the world still remains. The prayers our mothers taught us and the faith in God instilled in us by devout fathers remain as priceless treasures. Let us hold to that pilgrim faith keeping our poise, preserving our past as far as it has worth, facing our future in the spirit of loyalty to the man of Galilee. John D. Williams, Treasurer [ Page 21

WILLIAM F. McCONN, M.A., B.O. President of Marion College Four Years of Service Marion College is passing another milestone of life with the closing of her six¬ teenth year. Throughout recent years we have battled against financial hazards which have shaken the economic structure of our country to its very foundation yet Marion College has been privileged under Divine Guidance to carry on and enlarge her ministry in the field of Christian education. Marion College and the principles for which she stands live in the world today as a challenge to the forces of Agnosticism, Atheism, Communism and all other political or secular creeds which attempt to deny the individual his right to a vital, living, religious faith. Marion College has been privileged this year to enroll one of the finest groups of young people to be fo und on any college campus. The President desires to ex¬ press through this medium to them, to the families they represent, and to the friends of the college at large, his appreciation for the fine spirit of loyalty and cooperation which the student body has shown this year. We are now engaging in a student campaign for the summer with the goal set for a twenty per cent increase next September, and we are counting on a continuation of this spirit through our state clubs. In the four years that the writer has served Marion College he has never appealed to the student body to support a project which the college deemed to be worthwhile and failed to receive their support. He does not believe we shall fail in the attempt to see an increased number of young people gathering on the campus when school opens next September. Will you help bring or send one more? Wm. F. McConn, President Page 20 ]
