DR. A. B. MACKEY, President of the College THE PRESIDENT ' S MESSAGE The wisest thing in the world is the search for wisdom. It has been said that wisdom is the right use of knowledge; it might well be said that wis dom is the right use of any good thing whether it be knowledge, skill, wealth, talent or time. Solomon was called a wise man because he did not ask God for wealth nor for the destruction of his enemies but for wis- dom to rule his people. Because he did not ask for those minor things, the Lord gave them to him. The twin sister to wisdom is worship, and true worship is the worship of the true and living God. Worship is the recognizing of a true evaluation. Worship should be a chang- ing something — it should develop as we become wise enough to recognize more and more the true worth of godliness and righteousness. Trevecca Nazarene College should seek to develop a greater and greater appreciation for the value of true worship; not necessarily the special times of worship, but a worshipful prayer that never ceases. This annual should be a representation of the togetherness which characterizes the highest type of education. Education is not an individualistic affair; it must be a group enterprise. The Bible teaches that two working together can put to flight ten times as many as one working alone. The cooperative pro- gram in school should be the beginning of a cooperative program which should extend throughout our lives and to the ends of the earth. Wisdom, worship and togetherness will bring daily triumph to the participants and a final triumphant entry into an eternity of peace and happiness. A. B. MACKEY, President
