71041 ' Frost Chapel, one of the most inspiring and lovliest sights on our campus, was contributed by Mr. and Mrs. Howard Frost as a memorial to their son, john Laurence Frost, a student and an energetic Christian worker who died in Italy in 1934. The chapel is set atop a rolling hill, and its sweeping lawn and majestic trees and shrubs help make it a favorite beauty spot. The peaceful atmosphere, the timelessness of the Frost Chapel are also a tribute to the tirelessness of Miss Martha Berry. She, foremen, and students worked together diligently to complete the chapel so its dedication date could be moved several months ahead of schedule to October 1937. Berry old timers still recall the driving spirit Miss Berry instilled in her students to finish the beautiful woodwork, the pews, the masonry of native stone in time. This chapel's warm and simple charm make it a true memorial to Christian living and a symbol of the ideals of education at Berry that our graduates will carry with them always.

X Y: L11 .'.'.'JlB-f2' .' -- ' 'Wad Rough brown mountain stones gathered by Berry students during their work and jaunts about Lavender Mountain provided the inspiration and humble origin for Friend- ship Hall. Miss Berry started the students collecting such building stone, which they piled by the side of the road near Friendships present site. To visitors Miss Berry pointed out the growing pile of stones as she told of her hopes for a new dormitory there. Friendship is truly a fitting name for this hall, for many visitors donated funds to aid in its construction. Before Friendships completion in 1926, students lived in such log structures as Meacham Hall. Friendship stands on a grassy knoll above the Recitation Hall. It accommodates seventy students, has four single faculty apartments and one family apartment for faculty. The recently refurnished common room is a favorite gathering spot for students.
