were bridesmaide. Honorable Grover
H. Jones of High Point, who for
three years roomed with Mr. Black-
well at Mars Hill, served as best man.
The groomsmen were Messrs. J. B.
Brown, Haynes Bro'wn, brothers of
the bride, Spencer B. King, and J. A.
McLeod. Little Miss Margaret Lee,
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. R. M. Lee
of Mars Hill, and little Miss Carolyn
Smith, daughter of the bride’s pas
tor, were flower girls.
During the ceremony Mrs. Peters
played softly on the organ “Evening
Star,” by Waguer, and “Call Me
Thine Own,” by Halevy. The cere
mony was followed by a prayer by
Dr. 0. E. Sams, after which Mrs.
Stringfield sang “The Wedding
Hymn” while all heads remained
bowed. The party loft fihe church to
the strains of Mendelssohn’s reces
sional.
Sail for Europe
After the reception, which took
place at the home of the bride and
which was attended by a host of
friends of the couple from South
Carolina, North Carolina, and Ten
nessee, Mr. and Mrs. Blackwell left
for New York. They sailed from
New Yo>rk on the “Europa” of the
North German Lloyd Line on Sep
tember 19 for Southampton, Eng
land, from which they will go by rail
to Edinburgh, Scotland, where Mr.
Blackwell will do research work at the
University of Edinburgh during the
coming year. After a year’s study at
Edinburgh, Mr. and Mrs. Blackwell
plan to spend a few months in Pales
tine before returning to Mars Hill.
Will Return to Mars Hill
Mr. Blackwell, who was at Mars
Hill for the opening of the session
and who brought inspiring messages
at the first vesper service on Little
Mountain and at the chapel service,
declares that he and Mrs. Blackwell
will return to Mars Hill next year
where he will resume his duties in the
college.
Mr. Blackwell last year completed
his residence at Yale for his Ph.D.
degree, having previously studied,
after receiving his A.B. from Wake
Forest, at the Southern Baptist Theo
logical Seminary, at the University
of North Carolina, and at Union
Theological Seminary. Mrs. Black-
well is the eldest daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. A. R. Brown of Irwin, Tenn. She
is an A.B. graduate of Carson New
man College and a graduate of music
in piano. Since her graduation she
has assisted her father in his offices
of the A. R. Brown and Company and
the Irwin Water Works, and has been
a leader in the social and religious
life of Irwin. Mars Hill College and
the community will be fortunate in
deed in having Mr. and Mrs. Black-
well establish their home here.
Happy Birthday,
Mrs. Woodrow
The Hilltop wishes to extend its
felicitations to Mrs. Kate Wood-
row on the occasion of her eigh
tieth birthday anniversary.
A member of an old and noble
South Carolina family and a sis
ter of Miss Helen McMaster, of
blessed memory, whose culture and
efficiency as a teacher are written
deep in the earlier history of the
college, Mrs. Woodrow has identi
fied herself with Mars Hill for al
most half a century. For many
years she has divided her time be
tween her home at Mars Hill and
her home at Columbia, remaining
at Mars Hill the winter while her
daughter and two sons were at
tending the college.
Not only by her generous assist
ance in many ways but also
through her gentle influence she
has been a benediction to the col
lege and community. May the
light of her Christian culture, the
dignity and charm of her presence
still be ours for many, many years.

Montague Library Is
Popular Retreat
Montague Memorial Library is
proving to be the most popular build
ing on the campus this year. Modern
in every detail, with attractive archi-
tectual design and an abundance of
material on its shelves and racks, it
is easy to see why so many have chos
en this building as their favorite
place of study. Comfortable chairs
and adequate tables, with the excel
lent lighting, afford an excellent
place for the students to study. The
stacks are filled with books for im
mediate use, thus carrying out the
real purpose of the library. Daily and
weekly publications are there, as are
the important current magazines.
Someone has said that a library is
the center of a college. It is gratify
ing to the library staff to see the
students use the advantages offered
them in the library.

On Saturday Evening
Ministerial Gonference
Is Gosmopolitan Group
Thirty-Three Members Represent
Thirteen States.
The ministerial conference prom
ises this year to be one of the most
cosmopolitan organizations on the
campus. Thirteen states and one for
eign country are represented among
the thirty-three students for the min
istry in the college.
The conference, with Erskine Plem-
mons as president and Major Arro
wood as secretary, meets every Thurs
day evening in the junior department
of the church. The meetings this
year have been inspiring and well at
tended. The first meeting of the year
was devoted to the introduction of
new members with a short talk or
testimony from each. Besides the
regular programs the conference has
had among its speakers Pastor Olive,
Dr. Spilman and members of the
faculty.
In former years students for the
ministry were automatically members
of the conference. Since last year,
however, membership has been made
voluntary, with those wishing to join
required to make application.

With downcast eyes and sadden(
faces three students of Mars Hill Cc
lege, Joe Dickson, former C-I Cla
president; Alan Spitzer, one of V!
ginia’s distinguished sons; and I^"

Hilltop, trudged in a downpoor
rain, with their friends in the wall
to Mayor Connor’s house to answer
the summons of a warrant, which hi ^

ities.
As the criminals were placed
their positions by Chief of Poll husi
Hutchins, a muted calm fell upon M
audience of friends and classmates
the indicted, as the rain fell in to
rents, with only the clear distin
words of the judge breaking
deathly silence, as he questioned tlto ri
state witnesses: Boh Wright, Jo! girt
Clark, and Rudolph Teague.
Wright, the first questioned, tesjber
fied how his room was entered by t for 1
accused, who upon gaining the sarj jyjg
turn of his domicile, began noisly aify,o
unmercifully to drag one victim aft, j,jc
the other into their temporary sna gj^
The unfortunate victims were plac
in the closet where the wails a 26

distinctly and uncomfortably heard. ^ ^

The boys’ orchestra under the ba
ton of Schubert Holt was one of the
main features of the night’s enter
tainment. This orchestra rendered
several popular selections which were
heartily approved by the audience.
This orchestra has been formed by
the boys themselves and is a credit to
those who have worked so hard with
it.
