THIS MATTER OF BEING EDUCATED An education is the acquired ability to do well the things that need to be done. If a person could know the things that he would need to do, it would not be necessary to learn to do so many that never become necessary to do; however if we could know beforehand what the future holds, a great deal of time could be saved, but since we do not know just what we shall be doing a few years from now, and since we do not know that the skill we acquire today will be necessary with the inven- tions of tomorrow, the best type of education is the building of a broad foundation which en- ables us to do or to learn how to do almost anything. In building this broad foundation we can be sure that to learn how to get along with people is necessary for almost anything in life. Doctors, lawyers, and preachers may be well qualified in their special subjects and yet fail if they cannot make friends. There is probably no better place to get training for life with others than in a boarding school. Economy is something anyone should know because of the problem of living which includes financing home and business; in fact, every per- son has something to do in wealth getting and wealth using. Possibly the training in financing one ' s college education might build a founda- tion for a great business career. It is generally agreed that an education is a great enterprise. If the statement is true a person cannot be educated by shutting himself away from the world and studying books any more than he can become a successful swimmer away from the water. A college education is probably most profitable for a young person in the face of a world crisis like today. People are now tempted to make money rather than go to college, but what money is made, a de- pression may come and take away — stocks and bonds can decrease in value and banks can break and the entire nation can be exploited by an enemy nation, but a trained mind and trained hands will always be in demand. A well- rounded Christian education can win in any emergency of life and even for the life here- after. I believe this thing of being educated is a thrill of a lifetime. A. B. MACKEY.

OUR NEW BUILDING The Alumni Building — attractive, sub- stantial, modern, and efficient in design and construction. It contains a chapel, laboratories, a library, and classrooms. The chapel, including balconies, will seat approximately eight hundred persons. The library reading room is 30x80 feet, and will accommodate about one hundred and twenty students at one time. There are two library stack rooms ample for our pur- poses for some time to come. Other facil- ities are in proportion to meet the de- mands of our theological and college de- partments for a student body of four hun- dred.
