Carlisle, Faculty Advisor, Miss Ethel Kerr; Mr. Dan Williams; Mr. Ellis Frady; Mr. Rembert McNeer. Jr. What Is Education? A student in college is assuredly seeking an education; but what will it be when he gets it! What are the marks by which an educated person is distinguished from an uneducated one? Fortunately such marks are in life and character rather than in extemahties and material resources. In other words an education is that which enables a person to live a full and worth-while life rather than being the training by which a man is enabled to make more money. An education is the develop ment and training of the physical, mental, and spiritual elements of the man so as to bring him into as com plete adjustment with the physical, psychical, and spiritual worlds, or ra ther world, as possible. This definition of education makes it ultimately utilitarian; but that is not primary. Many people are able to use their education so as to make more money than they likely could if they were uneducated, and at the same time enjoy the rapport of their personalities with all the realms of life. This is as it should be. When the hu man race attains the ideal social status those who have the fullest and highest adjustments of life will also receive the fullest financial reward. At this time the world is far from the ideal social status so we are not to consider an education primarily as a means of making a living, but of living. Let the students seek to so use the opportunities which Brevard College affords them that the part of their ed ucation received here will make their lives better from every standpoint. A few words might be said about the educational value of such varied things as business courses, athleticS; and classical courses. Everyone rec ognizes the fact that a business course is intended to equip a person to make a living. However they have some valMe in aiding in the social adjust ment of the individual by making them masters of the mechanics of bu«iness. Athletics are often thought of as being the same as physical education, but athletics do not of a necessity furnish the perfect physical training everyone needs to secure the fullest bodily ad justment to the material world. The chief value of athletics is the develop ment of “team work." Classical stu dies are specially fine for mental de velopment, and the bringing of the student into contact with all the treas ures of the human race. Greetings from the Churches of Brevard Methodist Brevard Methodist Church welcomes one and all. Since the life of both the Church and the College depends upon the loyal support of each to the other there must be college spirit in the Church and church spirit, or Christ ian spirit, on the campus. Let every student enroll in the church of his denomination here in Brevard, identify himself with the pro gram and services, and do his bit to make this year a success to self, com munity, College and Church. That is to glorify God and develop Christian character. The objective of Church and Col lege is to provide opportunity for all round development for our students: mental, physical, social, and spiritual. Lets be on hand whenever or where- ever class or program is provided. —J. H. Brendall, Jr., Pastor. Presbyterian To all Presbyterians, to those who have no church of their denomination in Brevard, and to all who desire to worship with us, the Presbyterian Church promises a warm welcome. ■ A “Get Acquainted Meeting” is be ing planned in your honor. The Pastor wants to be your Pastor while you are here. Ask him to writ? for your church letter. You are al ways welcome at the manse. Begin the school year right by at tending Sunday school at 9:45 A. M., morning worship at 11 A. M. — and keep it up. —John Preston Simmons, Pastor. Episcopal To the student body of the Brevard College. May I, on behalf of the congrega tion of St.* Philip’s Episcopal Church, bid you a hearty welcome into our midst? I assure you that at "any time you wish to attend any of our services we shall be more than pleased, and shall be very grateful for the help of your presence.

Improvements on, the Campus Although no large buildings are being erected, yet considerable re pair work has been done since com mencement. Roofs have been re paired on most of the buildings. The inierior of Taylor Hall has been reinforced with steel. Some private baths have been taken out and ad ditional rooms for students built in. Paint has helped the looks of this building. Some plastering has been done in West Hall and painting in Ross Hall. The cottage in front of West Hall which was occupied by Prof. Franklin last year has been put in good condition and will be used as a dormitory. A new build ing—a milk straining and cooling house is being erected just above the barn. Faculty Members We Miss “Where is Mrs. Ross?” may be a question in the minds of some soph omores, if they go to the Bursar’s office before they read this. Mrs. Ross found it necessary to retire. In August she sent in her resigna tion from Detroit, Michigan, where she spent the summer. The Bur sar's office has been combined with that of the Business Manager, and Mr. Carlisle is on hand ' to receive all the money you will offer him. Mr. Compton's comm.anding ap pearance and fine voice will be miss ed when you go to chapel. He is at the Appalachian State Teachers’ College, Boone, N. C. Our Benjamin Franklin has also resigned. He is now teaching math ematics in Brevard High School. He is living on South Caldwell St., not far from the high school build ing. Miss Poindexter has also left the college faculty to teach the business courses in Brevard High School.' Living in Brevard she will in time be seen by those who were her pu pils last year. Miss Eleanor Trowbridge and the entire Prep Department are conspic uous by absence. When the trust ees decided to discontinue the Prep Department, Miss Trowbridge was left without a job in the College. She is now teaching in the Fairview High School in Buncombe County. Student Council “The purpose of the Brevard Col lege Council shall be to promote and regulate the development of indi viduals and organizations at Brevard College. All action by the Council shall be considered final unless oth erwise decided by the faculty. The Council shall be subject only to the jurisdiction of the faculty.”. The Council wholeheartedly ap proves of its purpose, and intends to do its best to help the college in every way. But no matter how hard the Council works it cannot succeed unless it has the unstinted cooperation of all the students. •The success of Brevard College depends upon the character of its students, the way they conduct themselves at all times, and the character of the work they do.' The Council,’as‘members of the Student ■Body, salute the incoming students. We extend to you the challenge of joining us in making a success of Brevard College. —Tom (Jraham We are glad to have > the Students and Faculty of Brevard College with us again.
