D., The Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, Maryland Introduction In the democratic way of life in our coun¬ try all people play an integral part in the overall scheme of government and of social well being. Every person should feel indi¬ vidually responsible and important in con¬ tributing to the good of the whole. How¬ ever, it is a depressing fact that many people do not inherit characteristics that promote initiative for the betterment of mankind out¬ side of personal interests, and, therefore, they need training and guidance in general ways of living. Education, then, is a most important part of man’s life if he is to im¬ prove and develop his standard of living. A sound mind in a sound body” is per¬ haps a goal that every individual should seek. Through systematic physical activities and wholesome living derived from definite health programs, man can build dynamic power which he can effectively employ to overcome many obstructions. Under the proper guidance of cooperative administrative ideals by leaders who have served faithfully and without prejudice in public affairs, the intellect of the average man can be broadened and expanded to a degree that would possibly touch the fron¬ tiers of knoweldge in all fields. With such a background man may creatively express himself so that he may contribute to the refinement and advancement of civilization. Ever pertinent and with resounding empha¬ sis, in the better part of man’s soul, is his religious and spiritual motives, which teach him the advantages of Christian living. In our book this year we attempt to illustrate the basic factors at our college which tend to build a better democratic society. 5 Cooperative Administration This generation of Americans has a rendezvous with destiny in the never turning tide of time. A philo¬ sophical understanding of society and of human relations, accompanied by an accurate knowledge of the funda¬ mentals and the advanced principles of administrative fields, will broaden our vision in this period of predicted ' economic strife. Calm council and constructive leadership will provide the steadying influence and the time necessary for the coming of new and more practical forms of representa¬ tive government throughout the wovld wherein privilege will occupy a lesser place and welfare a greater ♦Franklin D.

Vespers Christian Association Belle Breininger President Joyce Richards Secretary Constance Messick Vice President Ethel Beauchamp Treasurer I CANDLELIGHT SERVICE In the rapidly changing world of today there is a certain se¬ curity in being a part of a tra¬ dition which remains unchanged through the years. Perhaps this accounts in part for the feelings of zest, communion, and fel¬ lowship in the observance at S.T.C. of the Twenty-first Can¬ dlelight Service. As the stu¬ dents solemnly and silently filed into the Social Room to light their candles from the large one, they were conscious of the true significance and meaning of Christmas. As they sat upon the floor, sang carols, and lis¬ tened to the first Christmas story, everyone felt and ex¬ pressed genuine humility. Un¬ selfishness and generosity were expressed in the gifts piled un¬ der the tree; these gifts were later given to the welfare as¬ sociation for distribution to un¬ derprivileged children. The in¬ spiration, enthusiasm, humility, generosity, and unselfishness which pervade this service will continue to glow in the hearts of all who have been connected with the college. CHURCH ATTENDANCE Each Sunday morning groups of students gather on the front steps to await the arrival of the historic” college bus that will take them to church. The students are cordially received at the churches in Salisbury, and respond most heartily to numerous invitations to social affairs of the various church organizations. Intellectual Development A teacher affects eternity; he can never tell where his influence stops. Not only must there he the implicit desire to teach, to develop character, and to instruct in a particular subject, but it is paramount that one must have the ability to grasp the changes in the surrounding world and ever strive to make a gainful presen¬ tation to the learner. The test of prog¬ ress is not whether the teacher adds more to the abundance of those who have much, it is whether he provides enough for those ivho have little. £ 1 jt: %5f Mr. Paul S.

Home comings in October and May provide opportunities for comraderie and renewal of old friendships. These reunions are anticipated by those who remain ever loyal to their Alma Mater and the class of which they were a part. Mrs. Hazel Hearne President Physical Develupment The background for happiness through¬ out the course of life is physical stamina and health. Man’s achievement of a highly developed mental self and a spiritual self cannot disregard the importance of a sound physical self. There can be no greater beauty than a well coordinated response from a brilliant mind in a resourceful body.
