tot'em 19 7 X X 1 1 x A CO La l T Y V 8 The President s Message To the Students and Patrons ok Mo.VIurry College, Greetings: The progress and advancement which has characterized Mc.Murry since it was founded in 1923, and which has hecn so gratifying to those responsible for the management of the school and to its friends and patrons everywhere, has continued. This progress is due to the efficient work of a faculty that cannot he surpassed in West Texas, to the unstinted devotion of a capable board of directors, and to the active friendship of many others who arc interested in the welfare of the institution. We believe that the only successful life is the life wherein the God of Israel is supreme, ami where the will of the Master is given precedence over all desires for worldly gain, and popular fame. W e believe that it is necessary that young people be equipped with a command of the language, a comprehensive background of history, an understanding of the sciences, and a general knowledge of the other liberal arts. We believe that it is more important that they be followers of the Christ who died that all might live. McMurry College is dedicated to the cause of Christian education. In an age when the forces of evil are becoming more efficientl organized than ever lx - fore, and where temptation is present on every hand, it is more necessary than ever that the church college lake its place in the field ami do its work for the master. We invite the people of West Texas to semi their young people to us. where they will be surrounded by the inspiring influence of a Christian faculty, and the religious atmosphere sponsored by a consecrated Life Service Band ami Lay Activities Club, and where they may be trained for a glorious service in the work of Jesus the Christ. The moral and religious influence of this great center of good in Western Texas is yearly becoming greater, as more ami more students leave its halls to carry the high moral standards of consecrated Christian lives to pulpit, school room, and the business world. For the first time a class is going out of the institution whose members have done all of their college work here. The President rejoices with you in your achieve- ment. and extends to you his prayers and best wishes. Sincerely your brother. J. W. Hi nt. —11— X X I r1! A CO A T 4 Y V 9 o F X-V 5 f
