Truman spoke in chapel and accepted an honorary degree, he chose as his subject the motto which President Iohn Priest Greene gave to William Iewell College and which is now inscribed on the new chapel curtain, Deo Fisus Laboraf, The translation is familiar to every student, Trust in God and Work. The motto states the educational philosophy of this century-old college- wors-hip and work, faith in God and diligent study, sincere religion and sound scholarship. This we believe to be the only true basis for worthy achievement. Compatable with this high educational ideal is the program of athletic competition and recreation and fun which adds zest to college life. The installation of the latest and finest equipment in the Science Building is immediately followed by the construction of a beautiful new stadium for the football field. Turn the pages of the NTatler of 1955', and read the whole story of worship and work and fun.
