EX LlBRIS THE 19 4 M I N UT E M A N STUDENTS OF ATLANTIC UNION COLLEGE . . . . SOUTH LANCASTER MASSACHUSETTS =COPYRIWT 1 tiu£ o a.uc DEDICATION To Lewis Herbert Hartin who, throughout his four years of service at Atlantic Union College, has shown himself to be our friend. President G. Eric Jones PRESIDENT ' S MESSAGE Nothing is too hard for God. He delights in impossibilities, and He wants us to bring life ' s impossibilities to Him. He says, Believe ye that I am able to do this? It is quite common today to find some who are sorely tempted to quit, to let go, to give up, to stop trying. They started out with high hopes of achiev- ing — strong faith that they would surmount every obstacle, persevere. A week, a month, a year passes, and the obstacles appear greater, the problems more numerous and more com- plex. But when the outlook is dark, look up. With Him all things are possible. To faint is to fail. One who forms the habit of beginning without finishing, forms the habit of failure. In one of His parables the Master speaks of there being not much earth. There was no depth of soil. It was shallow, and though energy was expended in planting the seed, it was doomed to failure. In the lives of young men and women there must be that deep purpose, that earnest desire for knowledge and truth. One must not act from impulse, impressions, and the influence of surroundings. Atlantic Union College invites young people with high ideals and deep, clear convictions to join the earnest youth repre- sented by this annual, and together train for effective service. We bid Godspeed to those who leave us now to enter broader fields, and we extend a cordial welcome to you who will join us next year. SOCIAL SCIENCES The school year 1939-40 will go down as a banner year for the School of Theology of Atlantic Union College. This probably is also true of the Department of Religion, as far as enrollment is concerned, for 260 stu- dents have enrolled in the college courses offered this year. In practical evangelism too, this year ' s attempts have exceeded any- thing during the past lour years. As a result of last year ' s student efforts seven were baptized, and thus far this year eight have begun to keep the commandments and are plan- ning on baptism. Five hall efforts Sabbath School Officers Ministerial Seminar RELIGION and seven Bible-study groups are being conducted once a week, and in each locality where these meet- ings are in progress Present Truth is being distributed each Sabbath afternoon. The Seminar also is becoming more popular, as is evidenced by the fact that on several occasions some were turned away because of lack of room to accommodate them. While it is true that more are turning toward the ministry and Bible work, yet it is also true that there is still a place for every earnest trained man or woman in this part of the Lord ' s work on earth. Missionary Volunteer Officers Bible Majors BUSINESS Business Majors The Department of Business Administration and Eco- nomics of the College has served the young people in the Atlantic Union Confer- ence for more than forty years. Its objective at the time it was organized was to train young people to fill positions of bookkeeper and amanuensis. During the years the department has grown until at the present time the work is divided in- to two fields, namely Busi- ness Administration and Secretarial Science. The enrollment this year is forty-five students, all oi whom are earnestly pre- paring themselves for serv- ice as efficient secretaries and accountants. Secretarial Students Irene Ortner HISTORY Godfrey T. Anderson There is great reward in a study of the past. For the things that are cannot be fully understood or appre- ciated without a knowledge of the things that were. Furthermore, No man is fit to be entrusted with the control of the present who is ignorant of the past, and no people who are indif- ferent to their past need hope to make their future great. But the study o: history is even more im- perative in a Christian col- lege where the hand of God is recognized in human af- fairs. The utterances of in- spired prophets become more impressive as the knowledge of the past in- creases. History Majors International Relations Club EDUCATION Gerald E. Miles Ellen Klose Practice Teaching, Browning Normal The education department in the College, not only be- lieves in teaching young men and women the meth- ods of teaching, but allows them to put these methods into practice in the elemen- tary and secondary fields. This year there have been five elementary practice teachers and fourteen sec- ondary teachers. This plan EDUCATION Pearl L. Rees Dean of Women Doris Brown-Lamont Teachers-To-Be enables the students to have several weeks of classroom experience be- fore going out into the field to teach. By thus combin- ing theory and practice, students are more thorough- ly preparing for the work which they will be called upon to do. Surely the high calling of teaching de- mands this thorough prep- aration. Euphemia Bryne ENGLISH LANGUAGES Wallace Nethery The two hundred and seventy-four students enrolled in the English department learn through various writing ond speech courses to live with words, to feel their power. Since no art is more immedia ' e in its utility or broader in its appeal than the art of Literature, the students are encouraged through its study to taste the inspiration of the past and thus build more stalely mansions of soul and character, then to let the bucket down into the well oi their own hearts and see whether they can bring up living waters. Rochelle Philmon-Kilgore Journalism Class English Majors LANGUAGES George Caviness To achieve the impression of depth it is necessary to have two images oi the same object placed side by side as received by one ' s two eyes. In order to help produce men and women of perspective and vision, the foreign language department presents to the students another set of symbols and ideas of civilization, with the hope that they will enable them to see in calmer and clearer perspective themselves and this world about them. Jennie Gilles-Urbanowsky Language Majors SCIENCE MATHEMATICS God, Himself is the Great Mathema- tician, and we think His Thoughts after Him. It was an astronomer to whom these words were ascribed, but it might as well have been a physicist, a chemist, or any other specialist in natural science. At- lantic Union College, with its well- designed and equipped science building, its consecrated and ex- perienced teachers offers an op- portunity for the study of the laws G. Eric Jones SCIENCE Top - Biology Laboratory Center - Anatomy Class Bottom - Bacteriology Laboratory governing the behavior of bodies large and small, animate and in- animate; of the structure of matter, of mathematics — trigonometry, cal- culus, analytics, algebra; of physics — light, sound, heat, magnetism, mechanics, electricity, radio; of chemistry — inorganic, organic, bio- chemistry; of biology, anatomy, bacteriology, physiology — which lead the students toward a better understanding of the mind of the Creator. Pauline Young MUSIC Resume of a day in the Music Hall: A group of nineteen students crowd into a studio for their class of Music Survey; the sonorous tones of a Beethoven Symphony echo in the ears of the Harmony class across the hall; in the voice studio an ambitious singer is preparing for his junior recital; the fourth studio is occupied by a string trio. Suddenly the scene changes — History of Music class comes in; a violin student is prac- ticing her recital numbers; from the piano studio thunderous chords an- nounce the finishing touches on a Senior program; a student teacher Top - Music Majors Center - A. U. C. Chorus Left - History of Music Class Below - Band MUSIC Gladys Capman-Martin Madge Gould Voice Piano Center - Mrs. Martin in Studio Bottom - A. U. C. M. S. Bela Urbanowsky Violin takes her piano class of prospective musicians to the fourth studio; any- where and everywhere a piano preparation of special music for week-end services will be heard, which is a part of the practical train- ing given. The busy day ends with a chorus of fifty voices rehearsing; another day will close with a well- trained orchestra polishing up for a performance. Thus each hour finds a different group of earnest, ambitious students studying music, to fit them- selves as teachers and evangelistic musicians. A. U. C. is Music Con- scious! Come and join us!

Green OWN AND READ GOOD BOOKS Time graduates us from school and college, but never from good books. Every day we must turn to them to find some fresh inspiration and encouragement. Few of us ever get the best out of ourselves without their h elp. They are high- class company — the kind we need and must have for soul refreshment, soul enrichment and soul growth.

I learned more practical and helpful lessons in my two years of service in that branch of our work than I learned in my seventeen years of school work leading to a college degree. Meeting all classes of people with all kinds of peculiarities gives one an insight into human nature and human needs which is one of the most impor- tant prerequisites of a successful soul winner. I would not take anything in exchange for the rich experiences I gained through the trials and problems I had to meet and overcome in the col- porteur work. It taught me self-reliance and perseverance, the value of a dollar, how to work along the line of least resistance, how to face difficulties and gain the mastery over them, and above all it taught me patience, kindness, helpfulness, adapta- tion, affability, Christian courtesy, Christian diplomacy, and Christian integrity in business and public life. It gives one an all- round experience which cannot be gained in any other field of endeavor. — Elder C. S. Longacre.
