MARS HILL COLLEGE HILLTOP
FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 8, 1974
FRIDAY, NC
"Help, I need some
body. Help, not just
anybody. Help!" Len
non and McCartney
took a true fact of
life and made it into
a hit song. Whether
or not we want to ad
mit it, each of us in
our everyday lives
needs help.
Help can come in
many ways. The type
of help that hits us
all is encouragement.
Encouragement is a
lovely thing. It can
turn a blue Monday
into a bright and
shiny Sunday after
noon. Now stop and
think. . . how many
times do we go out of
our way to encourage
a friend/acquaintance
that is down in the
dumps? Not very of
ten unless it is a
truly close friend.
We are usually so
wrapped up in our own
Weuits and needs that
we forget cdDOUt o-
thers. For example,
coming back to school
Wednesday a friend
and I had car trouble.
Out of the three
times we had to stop,
only two people came
to our aid. Now 2
out of 3 isn't bad
but stop and think
about the amount of
time we sat and wai
ted. (about 20 MIN. )
and on a busy inter
state highway.
I know I am guilty
cibout this also, I am
afraid to "become in
volved." Each of us
have this fear inside
of us.
A second type of
help is one that I
have come to realize
in the past two
weeks...this is help
from Christian bro
thers and sisters.
Just by sitting down
and sharing our daily
experiences with some
one can bring such a
peace to each of us,
especially when the
Lord is the main to
pic. It is such a
beautiful subject to
share with anyone.
Even those who
don't share the above
can share things good
or bad that happen to
them. Just find some
one who will listen.
It does wonders for
one's outlook in life
to find someone to
sit down and talk
with.
Help is a word ma
ny are crying out,
SO LISTEN! It might
be your neighbor or
your roommate,or per
haps someone in one
of your classes. Take
the time to help and
in the long-run both
parties will benefit.
JOB CARDS AVAILABLE
Temporary paying
jobs in Europe are
available to students
with European Job
Cards. The card en
titles you to a pay
ing job, with free
room and board, in a
resort, hotel, office,
restaurant or factory
in Switzerland, Aus
tria, France or Ger
many. Standard wages
are paid which will
earn back most or
all of the trip cost.
Of equal value is the
experience itself, as
it will give you an
overseas job exper
ience to list on any
future job applica
tion. Also, by pick
ing up a few v/ords of
French or German you
will have a worldly-
wise edge in reading
anything from a so
phisticated magazine
to a menu or cookbook.
The European Job
Card system does two
things for you. It
puts your name on a
job list, and it in
itiates processing of
your job and the ne
cessary working pa
pers . As this is an
advance planning sys
tem, students inter
ested in earning
their way in Europe
should obtain their
European Job Cards
well in advance of
their anticipated de
parture . Job Cards
and jobs are given
out on a non-profit,
first come, first
serve basis.
The service is pro
vided by Student
Overseas Services.
SOS has placed thou
sands of students in
temporary paying jobs
in Europe during the
past ten years.
Throughout the year
SOS conducts orienta
tion., periods in Lux
embourg , Europe, to
make certain that
every student who
wants a job gets off
to a good start.

dents from all over

THANATOLOGY??
What is it? Many
students are probably
asking this question
about the title of a
course taught by Mra
Fish during the Janu
ary Mini-term. It
has nothing to do
with Spanish Language,
Hispanic Culture or
Latin American Histo
ry. Thanatology is a
study of death. How
morbid.'
The course is de
signed to give a dee
per understanding of
death and its effects
on the individual.
Some of the topics
for discussion are:
suicide, euthanasia,
funeral rites in our
own culture and other
cultures, wills, the
influence of death on
art, mucis and litera
ture. There will be
films, trips and out
side speakers during
the course. Each
student will be re
quired to read one
book relating to some
aspect of death.
Are you dissatis
fied with the way
things are going at
school? Then make
your voice heard-
