But wait—something must be written on the slate as a guide during this new year or we shall only stumble blindly along and drift aim lessly from day to day. What shall we write at the center so that we may weave the year around it? Dr. E. Stanley Jones had suggested, “Put your hand in the hand of God as you start the New Year. Then the New Year will be a fresh adventure every morning and a quiet benediction every night.” In a year of 365 days, every day won’t be filled with sunshine. There will be cloudy, troubled days when it would be much easier to give up than to keep on going. One certain way to get rid of our own troubles is to take upon ourselves the troubles of others. Someone has said, “When I dig a man out of trouble, the hole which is left behind is the grave where I bury my own sorrow.” May this new year—1946—be the best year of your life. ALUMNAE NEWS O June Garland and Alma Lan caster, who graduated from Mon treat last year, visited us last week-end from Maryville College They are both majoring in Bible Ensign Isa Telford Clay is sta tioned at the National Naval Hos- alpha pi o The Alpha Pi literary society for High School girls offers its members an opportunity to do creative writing, and it also en courages poetry collections. The officers for this year are: Peggy Everett, president; Betty Johnson, vice president; and Vir ginia Tillson, secretary-treasurer. Printed below is a poem writ ten by Virginia Tillson. Dedicated to “The World” from 1945 A. D. I take leave of you, beaten, baf fled, and weary. Repentant for deeds I failed to accomplish. But though my thoughts, be sad, perhaps dreary, They are yours; as I was, to make what you wish. Prove yourselves! Profit by mis takes I made. Give this newest year a higher ideal As you face your destiny—firm, unafraid Press onward with enduring zeal! My biggest mistake was a “war to end wars,” , My ideal was to trample, greedy with lust. Your destiny stills the cannons’ roars. Machines of war, idle, shall crum ble and rust! To you I leave these: victory and surrender, E:i(ch thankful that wars have seen fit to cease. And, also, these soothing Words, and tender: ' On earth, 1q men of good will be peace!” SUPERLATIVES ELECTED ANNUAL PICTURES MADE Representatives from Buckler.s studio in Asheville have been making pictures of the students and faculty and indoor group pi^' tures during the past week. A1 outdoor groups will be made the first pretty “spell” of weather, when we have more than two days without snow, sleet, or rain. We are all anxiously awaiting the proofs—hoping that our worst fears will not be realized. Mr. Buckler himself promised that he’d make us all look like glam our girls—even Miss Carrie May. If he does as well by all of as he did by Martha Hughes, we won’t kick. What does Martha have that we don’t have? Don’t tell me!! Mr. Buckler came to Ashevi e a couple of years ago—“to dm, he said. Business had too strong a hold on him, and back into har^ ness he went. Anyway, he foun I out that his trouble was being allergic to tobacco. Just like tha he quit smoking for eight mont s, but he got so fat he couldn’t stoop over to arrange the—well, any thing that needed arranging; now he just smokes about ^ ^ ^ packs of extra-mild Picayunes day. He was ably assisted by whom he calls son. But tha nothing—he called us “honey- Mrs. Buckler will be at the eo ^ lege Saturday, Monday, and day to show proofs and take ders. , Perhaps the most fun of about the picture making getting out of classes Thurs a afternoon and Friday mornm^^ and wondering how many class ^ we’ll get out of when the out oo groups are made. da Pearce; Athletic, Martha Hun^ pital in Bethesda, Maryland.
