Ja ie S UN 01A L Published by the students of Montreat College Volume IX MON TREAT, N. C., MAY, 1935 Number 3 MRS. R. C. ANDERSON DR R. C. ANDERSON TO THOSE WHO HAVE MADE MONTREAT POSSIBLE To those who founded Montreat College we owe a deep debt of gratitude. Therefore we wish to dedicate this issue of The Si v Dial to Dr. and Mrs Anderson, who have been instrumental in making Montreat College possible, and through whose loving interest it is continuing to grow year by year. Not only have our president and Mrs. Anderson made our Alma Mater a reality; they have made each student who has come to Montreat a better person for having known such radiant personalities. Through their lives of courageous ser- vice. they have unconsciously inspired each of us to endeavor to live more truly “the better life.” Through our associations with Dr. and Mrs. Anderson we have come to a realization that if life is worth living at all. it is worth living well. Our wish is that many other students who take our places will have the opportunity of knowing the Anderson as we have. Above all do we hope we may always reflect some of the ideals we have gleaned from our associations with them. Long may they live, and may every dream and plan they have formulated be realized in a bigger and better Montreat College. Dr. anil Mrs. Anderson accept our praise and gratitude for what you have meant to each of us.

The race, you might say. is ended, but is it? Because we have received our coveted sheepskins, the reward for running an acceptable race, arc we going to stop? Are we ready to stop? Is grad- uation day indeeed the end of our course? Such a conception, I am sure, could not possibly exist amidst such economic dis- tress and social disturbances as are present in the world today. Commencement holds a greater challenge for the graduate of today than ever before. Upon him is placed the responsibility of solving world wide problems. So. what kind of success or failure we make out of the responsibility depends upon our am- bitions. our motives, our intellects, and our determinations. To every man there openeth a highivay and a Ion . And every man deeideth the way his soul shall go.” Everyone can have high ambition and strong, upright mo- tives to urge him on. Even if our ambitions are not realized, we at least have something worthwhile for which to strive. May our motives have as their basis the high ideals of service which have been so diligently taught us while in Montreat. All of us do not have superior intellects; all of us cannot expect to become famous. However, we can use our intellect, whether great or small, to the best advantage by directing it into sane and serious channels of thought whereby we may gain a solution which will lift the world out of its present social, economic, and political chaos. Back of all this there must be a determination, a might, and a power to carry out the above instructions. A strong deter- mination is within the reach of each of us and may be strong for good or evil. Which? Our lives are valuable if directed along a well rounded plan, but they may easily become worth- less if not carefully guided. We can do with them what our wills determine. May our decisions be wise ones as we face our tasks; may we “climb the highroad” ami thus reflect in our lives the wonderful environment of our college days -------------o COMMENCEMENT EXERCISES Monday morning. May 20. at io:oo o'clock, the graduating exercises for the senior classes of Montreat College and Mon- treat College High School were held.

The student body, led by the two graduating classes, marched into the auditorium singing the processional. “The Children of the King Are We.” The Montreat College choir added to the inspiration of the service by the beautiful anthems which were sung. The Rev. J. A. Flannigan of Franklin, North Carolina, delivered the sermon which was a challenge to each scnioi. I he recessional. Brightly Gleams Our Banner” concluded the morning service.
