K i THE CHAPEL There is a big room in the college, Which is better than all the rest, And ol' all the subjects of knowledge, The lgcnowledge taught there is the est. Neither Greek, nor Latin is taught there, Neither Physics, nor Business course. And yelt, what the student will find l iere May well be of all knowledge the source. The teachers and all of the students Assemble twice a week in this hall. They will sit there, or sing, or will listen, A When the president talks to them all. And no one of that mixed variety But has the good thought in his heart: We belong all to one great society, Of which everyone is a part. Of oneness we there get a notion XVhen we listen, or sing, or applaud, And then feel the greater emotion Ol' oneness, in word and in thought. Or do you not know of that fire, Those currents of finer alloy, NVhen friendship or love you aspire, And give you a feeling of joy? Or do you not know the sensation That may into your system be broughtg When a crowd radiates the vibration Ot' a good and harmonious thought? Don't you see, then, that all that is greater Upon harmony founded must be? Avoid, then, to find fault with your neighbor, But always find-how to agree. -G. E. Gum:

15. HH. QI. A. I h HIE Young Women's Christian Association is an iniportant fac- gg tor in the social, educational and spiritual hte ot the girls at QQKYS Highland ParkuC2llegc. Among the SOCltll.CVt?lllS ot the past , Z year were the Y Proms, given at the -beginning ot the sum- ! mer and tall quarters, for the purpose ot 2lCqll2lllllLl1lg the many new students with the social life ot' the association. At an in- formal reception, given to the girls of the institution, each felt that she was brought into closer touch with the other girls. The educational life of the girls was broadened by a series ol' heart- to-heart talks by Miss Hurd and lectures by Miss Lowe. A visit from the student secretary, Miss Lynch, was greatly enjoyed, and her message proved very beneficial. While enjoying the social and educational side of life, the girls did not neglect the development of tl1e smiritual. The weekly devo- tional meetings were a source of spiritua strength, and afforded op- portunity for efficient training in Christian work. A course in The Parables of Jesusf' as outlined by Elbert Russell, was taken up ill the weekly Bible study class. This was followed by a study of the lives and works of many of our home and foreign mis- siouaries. The few moments of devotional services, as observed in Morning Watch, were an inspiration for the work of each day. A revival of religious enthusiasm was brought about through the efforts of Mrs. Bess, familiar to the students of Iowa City as ','Mother Bess, who conducted a series of meetings. In these she advised the girls concerning the problems of a college XV0lliilll,S life. The final meet- ing was the impressive candle service of the association ill which all of the girls participated. The year closed with a noticeable increase in membership as well as a great increase in interest.
