BENEFITS DERIVED I have been greatly benefited by all the religious activities of State Normal School. From none have I received more help than chapel exercises. Rev. J. T. Doles has taken great pleasure in trying to pre sent and interpret the daily Bible lessons for us. Mrs. Brown has presented hymns, melodies and folk songs in such a manner as to revive us spiritually. The sweet hour of prayer comes to us every Wednesday afternoon. To me this hour has two-fold value; first, it gives me an opportunity to relax from the cares of the school and devote my attention to the spiritual side of life; second, the interchanging of ideas has been helpful to me. The time is offered for prayer, Bible verses, and discussions directed by both students and members of the faculty. In order to take an active part in these discussions, we have to read on current religious topics. By this, I have been helped immensely. Much has been said and done about the spiritual development of young men in boarding schools. Here at State Normal, special emphasis is placed on Christian development through the Y. M. C. A. Here the young men assemble each Sunday, and assisted by our faculty advisor Rev. J. T. Doles, discuss re ligious problems. Freedom of speech is especially emphasized in this organization. The Y. M. C. A. seeks to develop the young men spiritually, socially, physically and mentally. I, personally, believe that no better organization could be established to meet the needs of the young men tBan. the Y. M. C. A. As we close the last chapter of our high school work, we are truly grateful for these religious influences, which have been exerted over us during our stay here as students.—Henry Cabarrus.
