THE PRESIDENT ' S MESSAGE The first Psalm teaches that the righteous man is like a tree planted by the rivers of water, and the unrighteous as the chaff which the wind driveth away. The Christian college should be the best agency in the world to develop and establish young people in the Kingdom of God, and to establish young people like trees planted by the rivers of water. It takes more than water to grow trees, but a tree will not grow without water. The living water which Jesus promises to give is necessary for Christian growth, but it will take more than the water of life to build a Christian character wiiich will produce an abundance of fruit. The farmer puts phosphorous in the soil to produce the grain, potassium to give the plants strength to hold up the fruit, and nitrogen to make the foliage with the rich color. The students and faculty of Trevecca are emphasizing at least four outstanding elements in the development of charac- ter: knowledge and skill as the basis for a fruitful life; faith and courage to give stability and endurance; and a good disposi- tion to get the attention of those who have not met the Christ who can give them, for the asking, a well of water springing up into everlasting life.
