The alumni of Central Vlfesleyan College are actively engaged in lifty tone different States or foreign countries . The ex-stu- dents who number between seven and eight thousand are scattered all over the world. During the twenty months of service as Field Secretary, we filled engage- ments in Missouri, lllinois, Iowa, Ne- braska, and Kansas, assisting in evan- gelistic services and doing campaign work for the College. A monthly bulle- tin, was also issued since November last and generally distributed among the patrons of the school. The time has now come when the solicitation of the funds must be made the paramount issue. The Semi-Centen- nial Celebration is only a year off. The next twelve months must be months of great donations for our beloved College. SI50,000.00 is our goal. This amount is absolutely necessary to meet the present needs. Central Wfesleyan can use more. She dare not ask for less. SI50,000.00 can easily be raised if each alumnus or friend will depend upon himself, and not on some one else, to make this cam- paign a success, Already about 310,000 have been secured on this amount and there is a conditional promise of from 35,000.00 to 315,000.00 if the whole amount is raised. We must raise 52,500 a week, every week, for the next twelve months, ,beginning June the nrst 1913, and ending May the thirty first, IQI4. Both of these dates are the Lord's day. Truly this is the Lord's business. Can the Lord depend on you? Have we not at least one alumnus, who will make us a good beginning by taking it upon him- self to make four payments of 32,500 dur- ing the- Iubilee Year. Have we not a few more who will make two such pay- ments each during the next twelve months? Have not we several others who will make a donation of 32,500 before June IQI4? Are there not many others who in groups of twos, fives, tens, twenties, twenty-Hves and fifties will answer this call and advance the campaign for one week? Who will be the nrst to respond to this appeal with the condition that the full amount is secured? Let every one do his best. A ten thousand dollar man can make this move a success with a 310,000.00 support. He can kill it with a 31,000.00 donation. A fifty dollar man can make this campaign a success with a 350.00 gift. He can handicap it fwith a 35.00 subscription. Catch the spirit. Give according as God has prospered you and the Fiftieth Anniversary Cele- bration of Central VVesleyan College will be a glorious success. I. E.'Tusel1l1off,

The Dining Hall 1' 'V , interesting sights at College is N . 1 the gathering of the students -- - in the Dining Hall. The room itself is light and airy, the furniture and table ware of the best, and the food ap- petizing. Three times a day, at the ring- ing of the b-ell, the students come troop- ing in from all directions-boys and girls-a hundred or more in number. A jolly happy set they are. Every table of ten or a dozen forms a little social cir- cle of young men and maidens who greet one another joyously and sometimes hilariously. 'They come not only to eat, but also to enjoy a good time. lVoice, manner, everything indicates the happi- ness of youth.

At first there is comparative quiet but soon question and answer, wit and humor, serious and sobefi the conversation as an acconipanimeiitfmbecomes more and more animated. When the bell taps as a sig- nal that those who wish ar-e excused, the surprised looks on many faces show that the time was most pleasantly spent. ln th-e evening the meal ends with a short family worship, consisting of song and prayer. Then happily all scatter to their various rooms and duties, leaving the Superintendent and his help to make preparation for th-e reunion the next morning.
