God.
People are haunted by other
fears. Afraid of the wrong things,
they fear for the loss of material
possessions, of friends, of health,
or of life itself. The Puritans,
historians tell us, feared no one
but God. Of modem man it has
been said that he fears every
thing but God.
It is natural for all of us to ex
perience fear. Where is the man
who has never had a worry in
the world? All of us have felt,
at one time or another, some con
cern for the future. One way
to control fear is by hard work.
The satisfaction of working to
ward a goal goes a long way to
check the fears that plague all.
A real cause of fear for many
people is that they aren’t always
certain of the goals toward which
they should work. To be mature
is to set your own goals, not
just to borrow them from others.
Channel your energies and efforts
to achieving your own goals;
quit trying to keep up with the
Joneses.

How does a married student at
Mars Hill finance his college ex
penses and keep up with his
grades?
There is no typical way, just as
in Mars Hill College’s small colony
of young marrieds and commuting
students, there is no typical stu
dent. But there are many inter
esting ways. Among them is the
cooperative effort made by Glenn
McCoy, 21, and his wife Nancy,
or “Nan,” 20.
Glenn is the young man with “all
those children.” To settle the cur
iosity of anyone who may have
seen him on the street, smiling
pleasantly and cooing at two
young and dissimilar babies in his
arms, accompanied by a young
woman carrying yet a third dif
ferent baby, only one of the three
babies is his. That is little Deb
orah, aged 19 months.
The other two babies are foot
ball player Roger Whitley’s little
girl, Tracy, aged two, and Mr.
Kincaid’s little boy, Carl, nearly
two. Both are kept by “Nan”
from 8 to 5, five days a week.
Sometimes Glenn himself keeps
the three babies when “Nan” is
busy. (She helps with the church
nursery Sundays and is a GA
counselor during the week.) He
finds them no trouble at all. As
he said, “They’re as sweet as
can be. They play. Oh, we have a
blast.”
Glenn also has a job of his

Versatile Glenn McCoy displays his skill as a babysitter as he poses

ing two extra children helps Glenn and his wife maintain themselves
in Mars Hill while he pursues an education.
own. Each weekend, he works as a
cook at Wink’s Drive-In in Ashe
ville. The lateness of the hours—
4 p.m. until midnight Friday and
Sunday, 4 p.m. until 1 a.m. Sat
urday—plus a certain distinctive
heraldic quality in the muffler on
his ’61 Comet station wagon, have
made him a little legendary to
his neighbors.
“Anybody will hear that car
coming in!” he said.
Glenn and “Nan” manage to
live comfortably on his hundred a
month and her hundred a month,
to which their church adds twen
ty-five. Though they have little
for savings or extras, they find
their finances adequate for pres
ent needs. They live, as they have
for two years, in a modest style
which includes a four-room apart
ment with a TV they listen to
though the picture tube is shot.
In addition to their homelife.

babysitting, and Glenn’s job as
cook, Glenn and “Nan” manage
to take in a few other selected
activities. High on the list for
both are church activities; also in
cluded are some cultural events,
among them musical programs in
Asheville. Nor are they lacking in
friends. They know many of the
other married students.
Like other commuters, Glenn
does lament being inadequately
informed of much of the campus
activities. As a good example, he
did not even know about the
Mock Election in November until
it had already happened.
“Mostly,” he said, “We come to
class and go home.”
Some of Glenn’s other jobs to
finance his study for the ministry
have been a little startling, to say
the least. While in Williamsburg,
Va., before coming here, he
worked at a funeral home, as a
newspaper distributor, as a florist,
and at about three different jobs
for Eastern State Hospital, a men
tal institution. There he was, re
spectively, a chauffeur for the pa
tients on bus trips and picnics, a
clerk-typist, and an attendant on
the male admittance ward.
If the experience from a var
iety of jobs meeting all sorts of
different people in a variety of
situations helps prepare a ser
ious-minded student for his chosen
career, Glenn’s hound to be a
success.
