In the afternoons this path to town was a long weary chore, but at night the distance be- canne surprisingly short. Note the space in the center under the Oak Tree where the grass is worn--we wonder why! The Old Bell still calls Chow- anians to classes, to meals, and peals forth in the night when the Braves return from a successful scalping party. , Hurrying to early morning classes are Carmen Vence, Lawrence Lane, Joan Burt, and Buster Winborne.

Memory Lane . . For us this well worn path from the col- lege to town was just that. Was this light the one that failed to burn at the right time? The newest building on our campus is the home of the Graphic Arts Department which was erected in 1953. Looking fromi the Columns in the late afternoon, the campus provides a majestic view of the creative power of God.

Dedication With sincere devotion, the CHOWANOKA staff pays tribute to one of the most beloved members of the Chowan College faculty. In the short span of three years she has earned the respect and admiration of students and faculty alike. In her classroom the Holy Scriptures open as a new world when she reveals Old Testa- ment literature and life, the life of Christ, and the life and letters of Paul. But, throughout she has taught us the principles of Christian ethics and in her daily life she has demonstrated them. Besides her work with youth on the campus, she has reared two fine children of her own and has been a motivating force in the successful public life of her husband, who is now President of Chowan College. A tireless worker at school, at church, in the community, and at home, she depicts a zeal we wish we might acquire. And, when our spirits reach a low ebb we are sure to fine in our adviser the encouragement necessary to make life liveable again. We appreciate the honesty and sincerity of her counsel and her trust in our endeavor. The loyalty, faithfulness, and integrity revealed in her quiet power and Chris- tian love compel us to dedicate this 1954 CHOWANOKA to Daisy Lou Mixon, Head of the Department of Bible.
