"TENACITY OF PURPOSE."
The Subject of L. L. William's Talk
To Y. M. C. A.
Y. M. C. A. Prayer meeting was
conducted Thursday night by Lyndon
Williams.
Mr. Williams chose as his topic for
the evening "Tenacity of Purpose"
and based his talk on that old say
ing familiar to all; "If you don't
succeed at first, try, try again."
"Have a purpose and then stick to
your work until ycu have accom
plished this purpose. 'He who works
and waits, wins.' Failure comes first,
success last. Everything that is good
has to fight for existence in this
world and the gospel of Christ,
which is supreme, is the hardest
fight waged. Thousands of men have
failed in life because they have not
obeyed the fundamental principles
laid down by Christ. One must ex
ercise will power in trying to live
for Christ. Perseverance in earthly
life may lead to temporal rewards,
but persistency in living for Christ
will result in life everlasting. Per
severance in society work, on the ath
letic field and in the class room re
sult in the joy of work well done, but
persevei'ance in a Christ-like life will
result in everlasting joy. 'The only
failure a man ought to fear is fail
ure in cleaving to the purpose he
sees to be best,' The watch word of
all should be 'Never give up.'''

STUDENT'S GOVERNMENT
(Continued from page one)
tempers government always with
love. Also the kind of government
under which its citizens keep faith
with one another?'"
This type of government, Doctor
Gaynes believes, develops the highest
type of womanhood for it develops
strength and makes girls realize their
responsibility. No person can live
on the principles of honor without
developing a strong character.
The second point was brought out
in the last session which was given
over to constructive discussion in
training for better citizenship. All
of the representatives felt the need
of this work in their colleges and
expressed their desires for more all
round women citizens. Suggestions ;
in the form of clubs, leagues, lec
tures and special studies were given 1
by several girls. ;

A recommendation from the exten
sion department was also adopted
which suggested plans for the organ
ization of student government in sec
ondary schools and high schools.
Ruth Outland who was recently
elected president of student govern
ment at Guilford, was Guilford's
representative at the conference.
CONFERENCE OF "Y. W."
(Continued from page one)
thought that the living Christ can
not be really visualized in a complete
recognition of all his characteristics,
but that he is a spirit who permeates
the lives of those whose hearts are
full of "Divine Love" To allow this
spirit one can not draw his concep
tions of Christ from the Christ whom
the Y. W. C. A. knows or from the
Christ whom the church knows or
even from the Christ whom her per
sonal friends know. She must have a
definite experience and be able to say,
"I know in whom I have believed."
With the right conception of Christ
the girl must have a religion which
is not something separable and dis
tinct from all the other interests of
life but a religion which will per
meate her other activities, a relig
ion which will give God a right of
way in her imagination, her humor
and her life.
Miss Lumpkin made it very plain
to the conference that if we could look
at our campus through the ayes of
fHE GUILFORDIAN
Jesus we would be able to see how to
change some conditions and thus line
up to the true purpose of our asso
ciation.
