SAYS:
I'll be wid you’rns dis
year.
OUR WELCOME.
We welcome the old students
to Elon again. We are glad you
are back and ready to begin work
again with that same old Elon
spirit, or perhaps a ne\yer spirit
because of the new environment.
Anyway we know you will still
have that good old spirit of which
we are all so proud and which
means so much to us.
To the new students—we es
pecially bid you welcome. .We
are glad that you have chosen
Elon as your College and we
hope that you'll never regret that
decision.
You have doubtless heard
something about the Elon spirit.
Maybe you have already exper
ienced it to a certain e.xtent. We
are sure that you have if you have
ever visited Elon. We do not be
lieve that anyone can come with
in the shadow of the walls of Elon
or the shade of the stately oaks
without getting the spirit of the
place.
But if )’OU are coming for the
first time we hope that you will
get the spirit at once and that it
may be a part of your life, as it is
a part of the life of every student
who has ever been to Elon.
You are coming to college with
a purpose—which we hope is a
high and noble purpose—and you
should allow nothing to detract
from it.
We want you to feel at home
and enjoy your college days. It
may be different from high school
or home, but there is no reason
why you cannot be as happy here.
We wish for you a full year of
happiness and may this be the
new beginning of a greater life of
service for each of us and Our
College.

If father did the washing

If every father did the famUy washing
next Monday there would be an electric
washing machine in every home before
next Saturday night.
You will live in a new age—
an electrical age. Heavy tasks
will be shifted from human
shoulders to electric motors.
Remember the letters “G-E**.
They are a symbol of service—
the initials of a friend.
If yoa are interested to learn
more about what electricity is
doing, write for Reprint No.

For fathers are used to figuring costs.
They’d say: “The electricity for a week’s
washing costs less than a cake of soap.
Human time and strength are too prec
ious for work which a machine can do so
cheaply and well.”
