RICKMAN, Faculty Advisor j ur ne me Dark clouds of despair and doubt may hover low and shadow the pathways of life, but to those who will open their hearts and let the Light of Life come in, there is a light which shines on our path- way, dispelling the clouds and giving undaunted faith, hope, and courage to face the future with its many problems, knowing that the path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day.” The darkness of night is gathering, presenting to us, as followers of Christ and the spiritual leaders of our church, a stupendous challenge to go out into the darkness and bring the lost into the fold before the shades of night have fallen and it is forever too late. — DEDICATION It is with pride that we look to one of our own and enjoy the realizations of one of us who made good. Dn. Roy S, Nicholson's magnanimous personality has won recognition from the religious and business world as well as from our own church. One outstanding attribute of his life is his unselfish aggressive spirit to promote every phase of the work of the church. It is his strength of character and ability as an administrator that has placed him in the various posi- tions of General Superintendent of W. . P. $.. Connectional Sun- day School Secretary and Editor. Connectional Editor, Connectional Home Missionary Secretary, General Conference President, and one who has received recognition in the publications, Religious Leaders in America and ‘Who's Who in the South and Southwest'. It is with heartfelt gratitude and esteem that this volume of the Centralian is respectfully dedicated. I R Rov S K HOI si IN U e are made more appreciative each day for those who have dedicated themselves to the task of leading young lives into the light of knowledge. It is their love and interest woven into duty that non our confidence and prompted us unconsciously to appreciate their counsel all together in one gigantic effort, they have succeeded in accomplishing the tasks set before them under numerous handi- caps. I ADMINI i J. B. Hilson, A.B., M.A. Vk, resident In spite of the problems which continually accom- pany the task of being president of a school. Presi- dent Hilson finds time to take a personal interest in the students. He is never too busy to stop his work and listen to a problem or encourage a discouraged student. Acknowledging his de- pendence upon a higher Leader, President Hilson un- selfishly gives of his time and labor to the improve ment of the school. i 1 Assisting the president with the business side of the work are Rev. F. B. Williams, bookkeeper; Miss Annette Acree, secretary to the President; and Miss Doris Rampey, stenographer. Si STRATION Lucal Huard ol Managers G. A. Gaines David P. Denton Earl T.

Dietitian Studying is a necessary labor, but to the one who has caught the vision and responsibilities of life and has realized the advantage and importance of an education, it is a privilege. Our theological students, earnest and consecrated, have caught the vision and are preparing themselves for more efficient service in the whitened harvest fields. The college students are no less awakened to their need of life which God has planned for them, and they are striving to he “vessels fit for the Master's use. Our academic students, although seemingly carefree, make very definite contributions to W. M. C. both socially and spiritually. We face the future confidently, having learned that “the en- trance of His Word giveth light and that by following this light we cannot fail.

I heir enthusiasm and willingness to do the whole will of God sets an example for the younger group which helps to motitate them into deeper spiritual living. It is with unselfish motives that they enter into the secular and spiritual activities of the school, realizing that their priman objective in life is to glorify Christ. SEN!

Some of the factors influencing these decisions are character, scholarship, personality, and participation in extra-curricular activities. NAOMI DAVIS Enthusiastic, friendly, loyal, and lovable is Naomi. She is always reads and willing to help wherever needed. She can be found working early and late not only to obtain a high scholastic standing but to promote some interest of the school’s activities. Her posi- tive testimony for Christ is an inspiration to all. PAUL UAH DIN Brother Paul’s” quiet, deeply spiritual life, his able leadership ol the student body, his devotion to duty, the thoroughness with which he accomplishes all tasks assigned to him, and his winning smile have won for him the love, admiration, and respect of all who know him.

Few hours will be forgotten by these by-passers, for each moment of their Central days has been Idled with experiences that have laid a stone in the founda- tions of their characters. Cod has called some for specific work, and others have made decisions that contain their motives for life. A memon is not all that expresses itself, however, for their eyes dance with the anxiety gen- erated b forward looks. 1 he are bright looks, for God has been reverenced as the moulder to formulate each decisive attitude and purpose.

Pennsylvania The great commission is to give the Gospel to the whole world, to every creature. The distinction between fields is artificial. God makes no difference, for all souls are precious to Him. The call in non-Christian lands is to have the Gospel pro- claimed to those who have never heard it before. The call in Christian lands is to convince those who have heard, but have not accepted the Gospel, that it is the power of God unto salvation for them. “Home Missions mean essentially the whole church at work at its task of redeeming the Nation.” “The Card Call Plan is a Good Plan.” “SIGNr 'SEN or “SAVEr LUMBER and BUILDING MATERIALS STEWART LUMBER COMPANY Phone 2782 Six Mile.
