I Congress Hall has done service for men for many generations and has done it admirably to say the least. Single men hang their hats (and per¬ haps, their coats) here and call it “home.” Sixteen of M.

It is that hand reposing con¬ fidently in the veracity of God’s word. Faith needs an object and that object must be truth indeed. Faith in material things, in intellectual things, in the things of sense and will, have long since failed as the hands to bring satis¬ faction to men’s souls. But a living, reposing but active faith, in an All-Wise God has been and shall be our resort, our duty, our privilege, our pleasure—the instrument that leads progressively to hope that maketh not ashamed and to perfect love that crowns our efforts and fulfills the law. Need we say, then, that Marion College must be, and is, a living example of this living faith? Need we say that those who profess a personal relation to the All-Wise must prove to the world that they have the answer to its problems, its situations, its disorders? While about us the nations rage and “isms” flourish, our duty is the preservation of that faith for future generations and the gospel of that faith for the present. Just in the degree we preserve that faith by using it now shall future generations reap our hopes in a living faith for times to come. Eleven
