'C THE ORGANIZATIONS HE existence of the twenty-four separate organizations within. the college is but another manifestation of the assertion that the value of an education doesn't come from text books alone. The twenty-four hour, altogether, are an almost complete epitome of the world. and the many activities carried on by those organizations form the best argu- ment in the world against the charge that the denominational institutions provide no practical trainting that might be of use later in a practical world. But there are found in Clarendon College organizations that represent the worlds of music, journalism, histrionics, politics, society, the pulpit, and plain labor. The members of them have repaid, in a large degree, the help they have gotten in this way from the College. More than once the College management has sent out a call to one of the organizations to talae charge of this or that proiect and push it through. and the organization so designated has always responeded with a snap- As an instance. the chapel services were thought to be suffering from over-facultatis: the two literary societies volunteered to hold services weekly, and did so most successfully. The football squad needed sweaters: the Dramatic Club promptly supplied them. The promoters of a church movement in Brazil besought us for aid: the Assciation responded with ready purses. On a number of occasions. when funds were needed for worthy undertakings ,the Domestic Scientists put on a sale of some ltind of tooth- some edibles, and there was money a-plenty. Such are the uses of the Organizations. Long may they live, and thrive! 'N Q rfiv ,S X sr. f as Y xo f f nog srxrv saves

THE STUDENTS' ASSOCIATIO GLENN R. Lewis - - President. JOHN H. THOMPSON - - Vice President OMA GRIGGS - - - Secretary HERE was a time during I9Z0-21 when Clarendon College was moved to Ama- rillo, Texas. It was next to necessary, proved conclusively a certain fact, and came about thus: In possible cases, where the profundity of the faculty and the majesty of our build- ings might not impress the stranger with the fact that a college exists here in Clarendon, the Students' Association is called upon to do the trick, and it is always done happily. speedily, and with proverbial eclat. At the C. C.-Wayland football game at Amarillo a train load of students gave vociferous testimony that where the interests of the College were, there were the interests of the students. A Waylander at the game said: lf we beat them we can say we beat Clarendon College, for the whole college is here- That expresses, in a way, the function of the Association. It makes each student feel that he is a part of the College.. PAC! SlXTY'llGHT
