X Informal Worship service, as wi h this group of married students i Village shows Christianity being carried into everyday life n Vet Most of the early settlers of our country left Europe and came to America seeking a place Where they could worship God ac- cording to the dictates of their consciences without fear of persecution or intimidation. Our Constitution was Written by men of great wisdom who reverenced God, studied the Bible and recognized that each individ- ual has certain inalienable rights. Truly the very foundation of our way of life is laid on the bedrock of Christian principles. Although We are living in an age charac- terized by secularization, materialism and catastrophic world wars, Harding is dedi- cated to emphasizing the great principles upon which our nation is built and to help- ing each student develop a philosophy of life patterned after that of Christ.

, Many students find employment in Harding's recently remodeled cafeteria. Hard work has been a major factor in building the United States from a few scat- tered colonies to the most influential nation of the world in less than two centuries. The pioneer farmer toiled long hours with crude tools while the average laborer today works forty hours a week under ideal conditions with precision tools and equipment. How- ever, it still takes the catalyst of human effort to change raw materials, technical know-how and inventive genius into useful products. The productive capacity of the free American labor force is by far the greatest the world has ever known. Even though there is a tendency in some quarters to regard work as menial and degrading, Harding teaches her students to appreciate the dignity and honor of honest work. KQV? if . ' ff '3 X , . i , .

is-rc it The thoughtful expressions of Pat, Roy, and Jerry reflect the scholastic challenge to all Harding students. One of the outstanding features of our American way of life is the unique educa- tional system that we have developed. For nearly two centuries, beginning with the establishment of Harvard in 1636, most of the colleges in our country were founded by religious groups. Near the beginning of the nineteenth century the state university movement began. Today approximately half of the college students attend private colleges and universities while the other half attend tax-supported institutions. Side by side there has developed a huge program of mass higher education and an outstand- ing graduate and professional program. Harding has made a distinct contribution through its program of American Studies which has become a model for similar pro- grams in other colleges and universities. in fr 422. , W ll -i he r a u as f A W Of St d K 42 6 fy., f I f , .. fi' if ' .- ,,:.., j I f 5 gg This panel discussion concerning office management shows one of the many educational facilities open to every student. 6
