Christian Endeavor 5' 'fi ' . -. - . . . . U64 LBANON College for Young Ladies is not concerned alone with the mental development, f ,QA but also the moral education of its young women. The Christian Endeavor Society was re-organized in September, IQO2, the beginning of the Fall term, and has been growing iff 'F Us slowly but surely since. It is needless to say that we were benefited, when at the hush of ercv- ' the Sabbath eventide, we assembled in the college chapel to worship the Father of us all. Each girl went to her room bearing a peaceful calm in her soul and a brighter smile on her face. Through the combined efforts of this Society and the Rev. Dr. Pope, most of our girls professed faith in jesus Christ, for which we raised a grateful Te Deum laudamusf' The Society sent a representative to the Lebanon Presbyteryg although it is not auxiliary to the Board of Missions, we hope to malce it so next year. Through the assistance of the workers of the Christian lindeavor Lebanon College for Young Ladies raised S150 for the support of the College Missionary Movement. This is more than was given bv any of the Young Ladies' Colleges that were canvassed for this fund by College Secretary A. M. Wlilliams. There were several schools that were larger than the L. C. Y. L. but none of them came up to the mark that was set for them bythe girls of the L. C. Y. L. The influences of the Christian Endeavor Society in the L. C. Y. L. have not been spent and will not be until they break on the shores of the great beyond at the feet of him who loved us and gave himself for us. 64

The Alpha Beta Literary Society lf' HIS Society-was organized in 1586. How many girls have gone out much strengthened for l1fe's duties tor its lI'll:lLlCIlCC5. Yes, and may those who go out this year and the succeeding years vdiihy ' look back with pride at her glory. X-W i r! The Officers for the year were: Mary Grissom, Presidentg Edith jones, Vice-Presidentg Ifdna Jones, Secretary and Treasurerg and Miss Amanda Anderson, Critic. XVe hold our meetings bi-monthly and under the criticism of our beloved teacher Miss amanda we have profited as we could not have done otherwise. VVe chose early in the year to study our ' h own American writers and it is hoped that all of our members have been brought into closer contact wit our own Authors through this study. At the middle of the term the bi-monthly Recitals and the bociety were united, making the Society much more profitable and enjoyable. Perhaps we felt some unpleasantness in reciting' selection or write a criticism, but every effort was honest and strengthened us for the life before us. May those who succeed us strive to make the Alpha Beta better each year. .Q-fgEf:T ,S . s g1g s ig. 4. I-V J' r A P ,six A at f i 'Ab
