Page 1(5 Wanda MacMorland, B. A. TO SERVE YOU Somsone once asked what a college pres- idsnt expects of a registrar. The answer is Everything. The registrar at Emmanuel Missionary Col- lege also acts as secretary cf admissions and secretary of placement and personnel. The admissions records in this way become a servicing agency for the personnel program in order that the total personality of the stu- dent and not just the mind may be educated. The registrar in her several capacities has many contacts with students. It is the aim that each of these contacts may be to the young person not only an educational stimulus, but also an object lesson in cour- tesy and understanding. It is hoped that the door of the office may ever swing inward to students who seek advice and encourage- ment. Wanda Maclvlorland Registrar fOUCflllOOflL flfflCt Dr. Smith please? May I Take Greek?

Page a n d OUR Dtfln BEAUTIFUL FOR SITUATION Christian character dsvelopment is the foremost objective of true education. Sinca the mind and the soul find expression through the body, a well-balanced character is nec- essarily associated with sound physical health. Therefore, as an aid in attaining its goal, every Christian school should be so situated as to afford to students daily physi- cal exercise, preferably in useful labor with easy access to nature in fields and woods for the purposes of recreation and inspiration. Nature is designed to be an interpreter of the things of God. To the attentive ear she is vocal with divine instruction. To the observ- ing eye her lesson-book is replete with sug- gestions of spiritual import and eternal sig- nificance. In the sensitive youthful heart she implants impressions of purity and peace and trust in God. Thus nature places in hu- man hands the keys to unlock God ' s treas- ure house of truth, and in human hearts the means to interpret and appropriate the words of wisdom contained in His Book. Quietly nestled amid the fruitful vales and vineyards bordering upon the beautiful St. Joseph River, our college is truly a school where nature and revelation unite in edu- cation. The expansive lawns adorned with seasonal flowers and ornamental shrubs; the stately trees beneath whose sheltering bowers, joy-laden youths beguile the fleet- ing hours; the woodland spring, the grassy slope, and yondar craggy crest; all these W. I. Smith, Ed.D. reveal the changing panorama of nature ' s superb artistry, the handiwork of the Al- mighty. Ours is the responsibility to appre- ciate these environmental advantages and to imitate generously the attractive graces of nature in the character-building processes of our workaday lives. W. I. Smith Dean of the College

Page Greater Demands on E.M.C. As the work of God expands, the develop- ment of our schools must be commensurate with the needs for training workers. Conse- quently, to meet this need, E.M.C. is expand- ing year by year. Only a few years ago, the plant consisted of a few frame buildings and had an aver- age enrollment of three to four hundred stu- dents. To these frame structures have been added commodious and modern brick build- ings: Ihe administration building, the library, applied arts and press, the power-house and engineering building, the farm, greenhouse, and the college wood products. A m-odem brick dairy building has just been completed and a large, fire-proof dor- mitory, which will house three hundred stu- dents, is under construction. These addi- tional buildings will make possible an enrollment of approximately eight hundred students. The long-time plan, as outlined by the college board, provides for a new educa- tional building, a recreation hall, and a much-needed cafeteria building. Then, in the not too far distant future, we hope to see V. p. Lovell. M. A. a new music hall and a new men ' s dormi- tory. Yes, all this to meet the ever-increasing needs of a Christian education for our youth. V. P. Lovell Business Manager Busifitn officf
