Mabel White MABEL WHITE HALL-Northern's home for her young Women students. The building was purchased on November 7, 1939, and named in honor of Mrs. Mabel White, a trustee and con- tributor to the school. Within these walls Various girls .during the past 22 years have shared joy, sadness, hope and fear . . . they have sent clues to Secret Pals . . . trimmed Christmas trees . . . partied . . . honored missionary guests at tea . . . initiated poor unsuspecting fresh- men with shower parties, salted beds, upside down dresser drawers, etc .... they have greeted gentle- men callers, many times culminating in a trip down Most important, is the inner growth of the Mabel White girl, for while she is at Northern she increases in mental and spiritual stature. The dormitory en- courages and fosters this growth through quiet hours and pleasant study surroundings, weekly prayer meetings led by the girls, a small prayer room for private devotions, and a house mother who loves and understands each girl in the family. Finally, as the school year ends, the graduates are bade farewell by some of the closest friends they will ever have. With the farewell is a party and a small remembrance gift for each girl to take with her as she steps from Mabel White Hall into the fields of the aisle with the happy bride carrying the dormitory Service and harvest for her God, SS wedding handkerchief. Annual Open House is preceded by the Hurry and scurry of drape-hanging, rug-shaking, swishing brooms and dustmops, furniture moving, close in- spection for possible dusty spots Ctops of doors, especiallylj, and the last minute disappearance of not-to-be-seen odds and ends into already full dresser drawers!
