The staff hopes that the publishing of this volume will serve to renew memories of the experiences that have become a part of each one of us. To forget would be impossible, but such an album should serve to enrich reminiscence. Parents, friends, and alumni of the college: these are a few choice selections portraying the activities that have made this year mean- ingful to us—the friends we met, the lessons we learned, the Christian atmosphere that en- riched our spiritual lives. We probably have not accomplished all that we had hoped to, but we trust that in a small way this book may contribute to the cause of Christ and the church. Seniors: we have reached an important milestone. As we go from E.M.C. our motto will continue to be, “Thy Word is Truth.” CHAPEL AUDITORIUM Foreword

The College Classes To speak of “college classes” may seem very impersonal, but if you look at us a bit closer you will see us as individuals. We are per- sons who have come from different places with the common purpose to learn: to learn f rom one another, from books, and from our teach- ers. Of course, we spend much time study- ing the Bible, and relating all things that we learn to the Bible. Our motto says, “Thy Word is Truth.’ God is the author of all knowledge. We are motivated by God-given drives to learn. ‘The purpose of learning 1s the same in college as in first grade, that is, to better prepare the person for life in making his will a servant to himself under the Head- ship of Christ, and in developing his talents to yield their full capacity of strength.
