Baptist Student Union Will Ask for Vote
On Sending Summer Missionary to Hawaii
Miss Marjorie Beverly Neil-
son, Wake Forest senior from
Greenville, North Carolina, has
been chosen by the Baptist Stu
dent Union of the state to be a
summer missionary to the Ha
waiian Islands. The mission
project is being sponsored in
cooperation with other states in
the convention, under the direc
tion of the Foreign Mission
Board and the Southwide Bap
tist student department.
Since funds for sending Miss
Neilson to Hawaii must come
from Baptist students on college
campuses in the state, students
on the Meredith campus will be
asked soon to vote as to vvhether
they will participate in this proj
ect. A later announcement
about this vote will be made.
Approximately $800.00 will be
needed to finance the summer
project. She will be scheduled to
speak in the college chapel at an
early date.
Miss Neilson, a foreign mission
volunteer, has a wide back
ground of experience in mission
work to make her qualified for
the appointment. The daughter
of Rev. and Mrs. J. A. Neilson,
pastor of the Immanuel Baptist
Church in Greenville, she was
employed in the summer months
by the state convention, and has
made an excellent record in con
ducting Vacation Bible Schools,
teaching study courses, taking
religious surveys, and assisting
associational missionaries.
In the summer of 1950 she
was employed by the New York

City Mission, where she worked
for ten weeks with boys and
girls of several national and ra
cial groups. Each year during
her terms at Wake Forest she
has been active in the religious
activities on the campus, and has
held offices on the executive
council of B.S.U.
About fifteen students from
southern Baptist states will
serve as summer missionaries in
Hawaii, Mexico, Chile, and Ni
geria. Miss Neilson is one of
seven young people to receive
appointment to Hawaii. She will
leave the states early in June.
Next fall Miss Neilson plans
to enter into further theological
training, in preparation for a life
work as a foreign missionary

Did you come back to school
last September with a feeling
that you had accomplished noth
ing really worth while during i
the summer? Maybe you are
now facing three months with
nothing to do. With boy friends
being drafted or in summer
school and the world situation
being what it is, there will be a
new problem of what to do with
long, summer days. Now is the
time to _start thinking about
summer jobs.
There are a wide variety
of jobs open to people of col
lege age. There are several ways
of locating the job you might
want. “Help-wanted” columns,
employment agencies, college
placement bureaus, and trade
journals all offer information.
Church assemblies and con
ferences offer certain types of
jobs. There are Ridgecrest and
Fort Caswell for Baptists, Mon
treat for Presbyterian, Junalus-
ka for Methodists. You might
locate a job as counselor, wait-,
ress, lifeguard, secretary, or as
an office worker.
Camp counseling attracts
many students. There are Girl
Scout Camps, 4-H Club camps
and private camps. The counse
lor is in charge of a small group
of children and helps with some
of the activities such as dramat
ics, nature, music, handicrafts,
swimming, team and individual
sports.
Hotel work in resorts as well
as camp counseling offers more
opportunity to go to other states.
There are a multitude of jobs
in this field. Among them are
file clerks, typists, bookkeepers,
reception clerks, at newsstands
and laundries, in housekeeping
departments as waitresses and
hostesses, social directors, and
many more. There is also possi
ble community employment.
There are openings in depart
ment stores, at Dix Hill, in 4-H
work, farm work, tobacco ware
houses, and an endless list of

(Note: After disposing of the
rotten eggs and onions received
from Yankee readers of my
previous “blasphemous colyum,”
I shall continue my attempt to
reveal New York City from the
myopic, astigmatic eyes of a
Southern female (of the thin
framed variety).
The places where the gour
mets gather to eat in New York
rawther clearly reveal the dif
ference in Northern and Sou
thern atmosphere. We choke our
vittles down; they merely gulp
theirs. We eat taters; they eat
PERtaters. We chaw three meals
daily; they chomp daily (if you
call not chawing cornbread and
turnip greens eating).
Feeling rawther starved after
a full day’s encampment under
the CAMEL sign on Times
Square, I began looking around
for some exotic dives which of
fered caviar fixed Southern
style. The first place I investi
gated (accompanied by friend
“X”) was appropriately cogno
mened “The Fish House.” After
watching live lobsters battle in
a window display we finally
worked up enough appetite to
enter. Shaking the sawdust off
our feet, we encountered the
usual smooth Yankee welcome
whicji consists of phrases such
as “O.K., ladies, which table do
youse wanna sit at?” and
“What’ll it be, goirlies?”
the lunch hour rush descended
ing peoples filed in to gu p
luSch down, stare at us Southei^n
aliens, and rush back to the
jobs. It reminded me of the calm,
collected mob in a subway—no
room for the elbows to expand
to the edge of the two by four
table—unless one wanted to oe
minus one funny bone (where
the ulnar nerve passes the inter
nal condyle of the humerus, that , .
is.) The mob, however, was
overshadowed by the tasty fish,
which (minus the ten thousand
bones,) tasted jest lak Uncle
Luke’s fish whut he cotched in
the Yadkin River last summer
dee-licious. ^ , ,
Next on the list of places to
dine” was a little restaurant ca
tering mostly to artists and wri
ters. With a copy of the Twig
under one arm and the Acorn
under the other (both containing
articles to verify that I was a
prolific writer,) I boldly en
tered the literary sanctuary (ac
companied by my faithful friend
and companion “Y”).

Soon we became so engrossed
in separating the fish from the
bones that all else was forgotten.

In Charleston, South Carolina, a
favorite gathering spot of students
at the College of Charleston, is the
College Canteen because it is a
cheerful place — full of friendly
collegiate atmosphere. And when
the gang gathers around, ice-cold
Coca-Cola gets the call. For here, as
in college haunts everywhere—Coke
belongs.
Ask for it either way ... both
trade-marks mean the same thing.

A fire was blazing in one cor

warmth from another corner.
Overhead lanterns hung down,
casting dim shadows over the
atmospheric room. A small,
bouncing German waiter came
dashing over to greet us—and
o immediately usher us to a back
room—far from the maddening
crowd that looked so intrigu
ing! At first we didn’t under
stand why such a circumstance
occurred; we didn’t look un
usually “rebelish,” especially
since my companion was of the
international species (Norwe

lized the tragic implication—we
neither looked like artists or
writers—simply like ourselves;
consequently we couldn’t sit
among the Bohemians. Such a
blow made us determine to don
