The se- ' quence of courses follows the principle of the near to the remote. The following are the four objectives- in the department: CID Pro- ficiency in writing and speaking the English iw ' Language, C23 knowledge of the history of the 52' literature, f3D knowledge of the history of yu , language, and CLD acquaintance with the if j 1 literature. if CHARLES K. MESCHTER, Penn, '96 B. S., '13, Ph. D. ,Y ,H N 5? ' 'l , Bible I One of the traditional aims of Moravian College is the development of Christian young manhood. Thus it is the policy of the insti- tution not only to offer liberal training in the arts and the sciences, but, in addition, to present this training with-a background dis- tinctly Christian. As one means toward realizing these aims, courses in Bible are if sy! offered to all students in the college depart- 5 M, ment. The common purpose of these courses A Q is to acquaint the students with the Bible- 9' A its history, its literature, its teachings-the assumption being that greater appreciation of the true significance of the Bible depends upon first-hand acquaintance with the Book itself. While the approach to the study of the subject is non-sectarian, constructive, and evangelical, the department endeavors to maintain standards and requirements in strict accord with those of various college . curricula. i ni gy!! f RAYMOND S.

The results of the method are twofold. It prepares the student for those courses, tech- I nical and professional, which require a more I intensive and specific chemical knowledge. In addition, he receives a course of training lvl in inductive reasoning so that he may employ y 1 this method with a sense of assurance and a 4 N. V' degree of safety. He thus acquires, with the ' '7 courses of instruction received in other departments, an education which should serve him well in the cultural sense and therefore in the utilitarian. ,fQ..f -:fi 45. 'TCLU 4' 4 J: K X4 fit V! i x Modern Languages The courses in the Department of Modern I Languages are arranged with the aim of acquainting the student with the fundamental facts of grammar, pronunciation, and struc- ture of modern languages. Although one cannot hope to make fluent conversation in We the foreign .languages the practical aim of l f 54 the course, it should be possible, after three A f years of study, for the student to be able to Y N follow a lecture or conversation in a foreign tongue without much difficulty. The arrangement of the courses in French, German, and Spanish is such that a student may begin any one language in his first year and, by careful and conscientious work, really obtain a working knowledge which will easily carry him along, no matter where he finds himself. , --- 5 : :iw , H . . iv l 'N , H4 r l'lOYVARD HOFFMAN, '13, B.

ti f: l Q as get lil, + R' it by 5. ,. lb Ml a I f The N vii N W si 5 tg' Moravian took one long stride forward when Mr. Turner came to us early,last Octo- ber. For now we have an official registrar, librarian, secretary, and athletic director all in one. The many minor duties of the administration which became an undue burden on the faculty are now efficiently handled through Mr. Turner's office. In athletics Mr. Turner has proved himself a capable coach by the calibre of the teams which he guides. Every member will agree that he has been responsible for the return of the good old Moravian spirit in his playing. The faculty should be proud of an alumni association which has the vision of what can be done and is willing to see it through. Mr. Turner is in a position where he can make his services indispensable a we are con- fident that he will. ,X xi-N .il Man climbs through endless sujferings and sins, Age follows age, and wisdom slowly grows, No mind may measure where each step begins, rv c VA K4 li N A so M , r Nor why at certain stages blooms a rose. lpn What voice has power to lure the climber on K l Through hours of agony and days of pain? Who calls him, when the dark of night is gone, To rise and go his upward way again? 1 No mortal voice or law can do this thing, ' l Man climbs forever by his own desires- These, crushed beneath his' feet, their perfume fling Into the air on high like guiding jires. So man distils from out his inmost soul The essence that will lead him to his goal. Sy .A r Q 4 . i19l . pa, 'ff 3 ' is--aessssvzs m fee: L-'lic-es5fi5P',a-cf a aa-at-ai:
