EARNING OUR EXPENSES They fail, and they alone, who have not striven. The door of opportunity stands open to those inspired by the burning torch of high aspirations to reach a predeter- mined goal. Trevecca affords many op- portunities for a student +o work his way through school. Most of the work in our library, dining hall, and kitchen and on our campus is carried on by student la- bor. Even in our building program the students play an important part. With willing hearts and willing hands and with a determination to reach our goal, we are able to help our school while help- ing ourselves. The benefits gained by our own efforts may determine the suc- cess of our future. Ready and eagerly waiting to serve to stu- dents the delicious hot food which our cafe- teria affords.

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.

HIKING Outdoor exercise is encouraged at Trevecca College, and nothing is more healthful than hiking. With a camera in tow students strike out across the country to Peabody Lodge or old Fort Negley. The exhilaration of the stiff exer- cise in the cool air lifts the spirits of the young people so that they are prepared to face graver matters. Hiking, whether over green fields or through white snow, is one of our favorite forms of recreation.
