Dr. Vann’s Founders’ Day Message
with hearty greetings aod fellclUtlons, let me eiEpresa the hope
that wo all may recall and over remember tho supronie purpose
ot Meredith's touDdera—tlie ultimate ptirpose, {ncluding alt sub
eldiary objects, or every religious onterprlao oC wliatevor klod—
was to help bring tlila whole world (o acknowledge the lordalilp
ol Jesus,
This should alBo bo the constant and rullDR purpose In every
Christian llte; aod Bvory wortliy vocation, whether spiritual or
so-called secular, may be Utltlzeil to the same lofty purpose. For
tliere should be no secular to n. Christian; all depends on the
spirit. Remember Paul's .sweeping injunction: “Wliether ye eat
or drink, or WKATSOBVER yo do, do ALL to the glory o( God,"
So It the preacher can say “the sacred desk," so may the Christian
farmer say "the sacred plow," or the cook say, “tlie sacrod stove.”
And 1 may add In all truth that under a gracious Ood, tills
purpoae, faithfully followed, will producc In any catling the rich
est life and the highest happiness.
Try It. B. T. Vann,
Rateigh, N, C.
(President ot tUe College from 1900-1916).
