y ' llllllllUIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIMIMIIIMIIIIIHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIMIIIIIIIIIIIIII The pearling Uttieral arts; Although we are living in an age of specilization, we should not direct our faculties into one channel too soon. Thorndike said that The aim of education is not to fit people to get a living but to fit them to live. Making a living, of course, is an essential to most of us, yet it is not the whole of living. We do not want a country of nar- row-minded bigots, but a nation of broad-browed thinkers. Early special- ization develops only one side of our nature, and to live fully and complete- ly we nesd all the development we we can get, hence the place of the Liberal Arts Department. Early specialization will reduce our capacity. A liberal arts course before specialization will prove a strong foundation. What architect would build a sky-scraper without first erecting a strong foundation. Our faculties will be keener if we do not get into a rut too soon. Bacon said Reading maketh a full man; confer- ence a ready man ; and writing an ex- act man. Histories make men wise; poets witty; the mathematics subtile; natural philosophy deep; moral grave; logic and rhetoric able to contend. mil I IUI IH 111 II 1 1 limillH I Hill Mill III mil II I milium mil mil 1925 |llllllll»lllllUIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII|lll»lllll1llllllllltlHIIIIMIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIItllllllllHltl1llllHtn Twenty-five

Always when more books were asked for, Mr. Kays would say, Wait till we get a Librarian . During the summer of 1924, plans were perfected whereby a librarian could be employed. Immediately preparations began for converting the old study hall into a regular library. All the desks were removed to the Prep room and reading tables and chairs placed in their stead ; steel shelving has also been added. I hear someone say Where are the books? Are they the government publications? No, indeed. At the same time that the librarian was pro- vided for, funds to purchase many new books were arranged for. Each department head made a list of those books most needed in his or her de- partment. Soon after the ordering, the books were in the hands of the librarian, being made ready for the shelves. It was not long till every instructor was able to put long reading lists on the bulletin board. In November the school purchased the John H. Hineman Library. This collection added over one thousand books to the library. Among this collection are some very valuable old books which would be hard to pur- chase now. The collection consists chiefly of literature, history, and education. During the latter part of the first term, the library committee put on a benefit. A penny supper was given and afterward a program in the Chapel. A nice sum was realized.
