-rkeSUN DIAL Volume X Published by the students of Montreat College MONTREATTnTc, MAY, 1936 Number 3 COLLEGE ADMINISTRATION BUILDING Our Chapel Dedicated to the Chapel in the Neiv Administration Building of Montreat College. The doors are open wide, to those who may come in. With not a thing to hide, to receive forgiveness of their sin. The chapel of our Saviour, the All and Holy One, Who «lied upon the Cross, and here His victory won. The great and spacious room of rest with ceilings high and mighty. Withhold the sacredness of Him to whom we cling so tightly. Within these walls we find Him near, we seek to find Him thus, And so we reach to grasp His hand and bring Him close to us. Oh come, let’s give our all to Him, as He did give for us. And may our hearts be ever blest with Him. who died for us. For the doors are always open for us to enter in, With our trials and tribulations, our shortcomings and our sin. —Peggy Porter.

Well. “Life is an isthmus between two eternities.” Ummm. A pretty good definition, but where does it get us? Life’s but a walking shadow.” Maybe it is. but what of it? By this time ive surely must have come to some conclusion, and it is this: Life is a period of time in which we have the upper hand. a period of time given to us so that we may show our skill at using min- utes, days and years. “Our lives are our own, wc impatiently tell our elders. So they are. hut that only makes things harder for we are the people who make ourselves what we’ll be a few years from now. The truth of the matter is. that our reins are in our own hands and that we are guiding ourselves in whatever direction we go. Yes. Fate does play a big part in it, but even then we arc responsible for ourselves. The goal of every person is happiness—happiness in society, in work, and in religion. True, the selection of each plays a large part in the happiness connected with them, but what plays the biggest part in everything in life is making the best of the situation and seeing the good in what we have. Nobody can be happy if he is dissatisfied, and nine times out of ten those who are dissatisfied are people who see the worst points in their surroundings instead of the good ones. Happiness comes, too, with Duty. Duty really isn’t such a hard task-master, when she is accepted cheerfully, llierc’s a very comfortable feeling down inside of us when we’ve done what she suggested, and oh. the pleasure that comes with the thought, I’ve done what I should have done.” Duty first to others, and then to myself”—if that were everyone’s motto. Heaven would be right here on earth. o-------- COMMENCEMENT EXERCISES The annual commencement exercises of the Montrcat Col- lege and High School were held at 10:00 o’clock Monday morning. May 25th.
