GEORGE XV. BONDURANT DEDICATION The Class of '48 dedicates this HARVESTER to their sponsor, George XV. BonDurunt. Six times men tried to start 21 Christian College in the Southeast. Six times they failed. Then George BonDumnt undertook the task at the age of 21, the youngest president to serve any of our schools Fresh from college he had no experience, stu- dents, faculty, or funds, and only one frame building. But he had faith in the God who gave Gideon's 300 victory over 133,000; 11nd he worked with the energy of :1 man who loved his job. God rewarded faith 21nd work. and in the most dillicult section of the country a great school was built. The acknowledged hub of the College during this triumphant decade was his classroom Whatever other talents might have been his he was above 1111 else :1 great teacher. Those who sat at his feet will never forget. And so to you, dear "Mr. B," :15 we affectionately call you, for all that you have meant to us 215 president, professor, sponsor, 11nd friend, we dedicate our book with the prayer that wherever you go we may still hear your favorite hymn upon your lips: Beneath the cross of Jesus 1 fnin would take my stand. The shadow of :1 mighty rock within :1 weary land: A home within the wilderness, :1 rest upon the way. From the burning of the noontide heat. 21nd the burden of the day.

Four years past our eyes beheld thcc Glories veiled before our view, Just two simple country buildings, Hills 11nd fm'est-skics of blue. Soon our hearts were twined about thcc Drawn with cords of tender love, "Home, sweet home" became thy title Fragrance sweet fell from above. Then we found ourselves in battle Pushing 0n toward Victory, Building lives and building quarters l,ifc like that in Galilee. Through the years we've watched our Campus Grow in mujesry and charm. Grow in houses, luwns, and sidewalks, Now 21 College-not :1 farm. Best of 2111, within thy clussroomx Men Of God who knew the Word Gave us solemn charge before thfsy Put into our hands God's Sword. Hail to thcew Our Alma Mater! Thy children's voices pruisc thee; To the Christ and to thy teachings May we ever faithful be. lmluxllulhll u u umuun u n. mu um I mu .
