DEDICATION The person to whom this edition of Lest We Forget is dedicated possesses many of the qualities which Emerson, in his writings, deems so important. She is a woman of noble character and high ideals. She sets for herself high goals re- lating to her life and to her work, and reaches these goals regardless of obsta- cles. She aspires to truth, goodness, and beauty of spirit. This woman of so many attributes is an alumnae of Union University and reflects the qualities that all Union graduates should possess. In her ties with Union she has never failed to serve the school and its students in every way possible. She is now serving in a duel role of Registrar and Dean of Women. Both of these jobs are full-time occu- pations and require much time, thought, and energy. This lady is one of the first represen- tatives of Union who greets the new student upon his arrival at Union. She serves him as counselor and friend throughout his days here, and is one of the last persons to say good-by when he graduates. She has given inspiration and guidance to many who have graduated from Union, those who are here, and will continue to inspire and guide all students with whom she has contact. She never fails to do that which she believes to be best for the student be- cause she has an intense interest in the student as an individual and understands his school problems. For all these reasons, We, the 1961- 62 staff of Lest We Forget, wish to pay tribute to one whom we feel that Emerson would hold in high regard as we do, our friend and counselor, Mrs. Gladys Ivy Stone. — 5 —

DR. WARREN F. JONES Pyeside)it Union University President ' s Message Dear Friends: The staffs of Lest We Forget have accorded me the privilege year upon year of writing communications in our vear books. I have considered these cour- tesies to be an honor for which I am grateful. Appropriate themes have been selected through the years depicting the ingenuity and creative concepts of the respective staffs. No less appropriate is the theme Nature which has been selected by your efficient staff of the 1962 edition. The properly oriented student in the Christian college will acquire a pro- gressive appreciation of nature and na- tural resources as a creation of God for the utilization and convenience of man- kind; for God admonished man and woman at the completion of his creative act, ... replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fo l of the air; and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth. N ture therefore is neither self-evolved nor powerful within 6 —
