With the coming of sunny days and the ravages of spring fever, students are drawn to the fish pond to discuss the day's events. Professors find time for a between-classes-break in the Stu- dent Center. 4' V . . Z5 . N , .. N 1'- K . . . And Association t I . ,.,- z AWQQ XAX f VA f t ? ' t : .-- I YQ 1 During the colonial period, the found- ing fathers often lived in stockaded villages for protection. As the frontier -receded, the settlers continued to live in communities to enjoy the association of their fellow man. The town meeting became the center of activity in each village and many New England towns still have regular town meetings. One of the outstanding features of Harding is the opportunity it affords young people to associate with fellow stu- dents from all parts of this country and sev- eral foreign countries. In order to facilitate a wholesome social life, a number of social clubs have been organized. Planning for banquets, outings and other club activities in these small groups helps the student de- velop cooperative attitudeswand leadership abilities. Such associations aid in develop4 ing well-adjusted personalities.

Betty prepares for her teaching career by conducting a history class in the Academy. ln order to survive the rigorous condi- tions in the new world, the Pilgrim fathers found it necessary to develop a spirit of co- operation and service. Men would plow the fields, harvest the crops or build houses for a sick neighbor or a widow in their community. Women served in taking care of the sick and providing food and clothing for those in need. Even though our society has become very complex, the spirit of ser- vice remains an important element of the American way of lifej The Harding spirit grows out of the humble service rendered in many ways by both students and teach- ers-visits to the county farm and homes of shut-ins, supplying food and clothing to needy families, and conducting cottage Bible classes being typical examples. Most Harding graduates become teachers, preach- ers or homemakers-great fields of service. N, s Q fl l M.
