O. G. Dasher President J he Young Men’s Christian Asso¬ ciation was organized in the 60 s and has ever exerted a powerful in¬ fluence for good. Weekly meetings have always been held, and in its early history Bible Classes were con¬ ducted. Monthly meetings are now held with the Y. W. C. A. Jfie Y. M. C. A AND ITS WORK The Y. M. C. A. seeks to keep the teachings of Jesus Christ alive among the young men, and to emphasize the qualities of character wh ich make for better Christian liv¬ ing and leadership. One cannot help noticing how eagerly young men in passing through college grasp the studies, which arm them for the surging con¬ flict wi th every-day affairs when college days are no more. Often in their zeal to master sciences they wholly neglect the moral side of life, which must inevitably count for loss ere the goal of life is reached. The Y. M. C. A. helps them re¬ member their Creator in the days of their youth in preparation for that fuller life. Y. M. C. A. CABINET Jordan Masters Yonce Seniors HURMAN uniors ARRA ARK iop iomores

Circulation Manager Charles Crouch, Assistant Circulation Manager I he Indian oflers to each student the op¬ portunity of self-expression and welcomes any presentable contribution. I hrough the medium of the Vox Pop column, inau¬ gurated this year, students may offer con¬ structive criticism or praise on vital questions open for discussion. I hus greater freedom and co-operation have been brought about, and in a broader sense he Indian becomes the voice of Newberry College. I o those members of the staffs that make I he Indian possible, should go a word of praise, for through their consistent and com¬ bined efforts, they perform the many varied duties that go into the make-up of a weekly newspaper. At the end of each year, the Editor-in- Ch ief and the Business Manager are presented gold keys as an expression of grati¬ tude for the effort and responsibility that they have borne in this school-spirited accomplish ment. During the past year, the subscription rate has grown steadily.— further proof of the interest that the friends and alumni take in the ra pid development of the college and of I he Indian. It may truly be said that as Newberry College grows, so shall he Indian grow, and that neither can say to the other, I have no need of thee. — I he Editor. Kimmell CROXTON (ROUGH « 61 »

CABINET %e Y M. C. A. LITTLE SISTER’ PLAN Lois Hart President Dodgen Hodge Houck Roberts Every girl who is a student of Newberry College is a member of the Y. W. C. A. This organization meets each Tuesday night, and once a month meets jointly wi th the Y. M. C. A. The functions o f the Y. W. C. A. are many. It supports a boy in India, communicates with other schools and colleges, sends dele¬ gates to the Y conferences. Each evening this organization spon¬ sors a vesper service in the girls dormitory. During Lent it sponsors special morning services. Receptions and social programs are held. Each of the upper classmen has a Little Sister’ and each of the freshmen has a Big Sister. It is believed that this enables new students to adapt themselves more quickly and easily to college life. In conjunction with the Y. M. C. A., the Y. V. C. A. publishes at the beginning of the school year a small handbook known as The Indian Guide, the purpose of which is to act as a guide for the freshmen and new students.
