To the Students and Friends of Olivet: The year 19-14 doubtless w ill go down in the records of time as one of the mo- mentous years of recent his- tory. In it has been a con- flict of ideas and of ideals, the outcome of which will profoundly affect the lives of all the generations to come. Olivet Xazarene College cannot escape the obligation thrown upon her in times like these. Over two hundred of her sons and daughters have entered directly into the world struggle for freedom. Others are preparing for the ministry to meet what probably will be unprecedented spiritual problems confronting the church of tomorrow. The growing seriousness of life is causing hundreds of young people to look toward receiving a training in Olivet. The liquidation of Olivet ' s indebtedness on her million dollar plant this year is a wonderful achievement made ])ossible by the loyalty and sacrifice of our churches of this educational zone. We must build new dormitories and a new chapel in the near future. These too will be only a part of the means to the end. The real end and true objec- tive is to instill into the hearts and minds of young people the knowledge and the spirit that will enable them to face life fearlessly and w isely. Under the guidance of God, and with the help of our loyal people here and through- out the country, we shall see that Olivet Nazarene College meets the challenge of the hour. Page Fifteen
