The Formal Opening
Second Session of
Brevard College
With 381 students registered, the
students, faculty, and visitors assem
bled in the chapel at 10 o’clock bn the
morning of September 25th for the
formal opening of the second session
of the College. Dr. C. C. Weaver,
Pastor of Central Methodist Church
in Asheville was the principal speaker.
Dr. Weaver’s address was particularly
appropriate for this occassion as he
emphasized certain objectives which
are of value as a guide to the student.
He said that it is the student’s pri
vilege to ask questions, and by doing
so his views are broadened; he begins
to think; his mine becomes flexible.
The result will be the ability to graple
with difficult problems that he will
have to face in college and in later life.
Dr. Weaver’s prescription for happi
ness is man’s greatest possession, the
love of learning. Many go through
college without acquiring an open
mind and without caring whether or
not tfiey learn anything. Very few
persons of this type are successful.
Therefore, if a student wishes to have
that feeling of self-reliance which comes
when he can thruthfully say “I know,’'
he must keep his mind open and ac
quire this love of learning.
Dr. Weaver is an experienced educa
tor and speaker having been president
of Emory and Henry, College and pas
tor of several of the large city churches
in this conference. Brevard College
was very fortunate in having him de
liver the opening address.
Other speakers on the program were
Rev. John Simmons, pastor of the
Presbyterian Church, Rev. J. H. Bren-
dall, pastor of the Methodist Church,
and Rev. Paul Hartsall, pastor of the
Baptist Church, who gave a word of
welcome to the students.

How to Study
Many students have difficulty in
keeping up with their classes, not
because they are dumb, nor because
they are too lazy to work: but be
cause they do not know how to do
their studying. High schools are
now offering a great variety of sub
jects, but their service to the young
people would be greatly increased
if they would try to teach them
how to study.
It is not supposed that full in
structions and training in the noble
art of studying can be given in the
short space of this article. It is
however supposed that some sug
gestions can be given which will be
halpful. There is no one rule which
will insui’e success. Study can be
spelt with four letters. These let
ters are w-o-r-k. The work nece&
sary is that of forcing the mind to
give attention to the subject being
studied. This is not an easy thing
to do unless the mind has been
trained for concentration. The
way to do is to shut out all physi
cal distractions such as noise, other
people passing through the room, or
even the lack of a good light and a
comfortable chair.
Read through the assignment for
study very carefully. Trying to
make out the exact thought express
ed in every sentence. When each
paragraph is finished pause long
enough to go over in your mind
what has been. said.
Rev. Mr. Brendall Speaks
Friday morning Rev. Brendall gave
us a very interesting talk. At this
time Rev. Perry, rector of the Episco
pal Church extended a hearty welcome
to all. Mr. Coltrane introduced Miss
Elizabeth Groves to the student body.
She is a member of the Woman's
Council in Washington, an organiza
tion which is interested in Brevard
College.
