} BACCALAUREATE.
Lenoir's commencement open
ed with the baccalaureate Sun
cay, in the church on the cam
pus. The preacher was Rev. R.
L Patterson pastor of St. Mark's
c lurch. Charlotte. Mr. Patter
B>n vvas introduced with two
announcements, first that Rev.
.T. C. MoSer, D. D., who had been
f »rmerly announced as speaker
ior the occasion, was physically
unable to be present, and second
that with only three days notice,
Mr. Patterson had kindly con
sented to preach. Mr. Patterson
responded that he considered
himself unworthy of the many
favors bestowed upon him by
Lenoir College and especially so
when selected to fill the high
place of one of the "Fathers of
Lenoir College and the Tennessee
Synod."
The text was 1 Peter 4:10, and
the subject, "Girts and Respon
sibility." The speaker was at
h s best, the audience large and
aDpreciative, and the sermon was
excellent. It was suited admir
ably to the occasion and set forth
a philosophy of life that is the
plan of a scholar. The ideas of
the speaker were expressed in
choice language. Each individu
al has a gift or endowment from
God. This gift is to be used and
each individual will be held re
sponsible for his own gift. This
brings tasks, duties and respon
nihilities. Etch one will be he.d
accountable for the exercise of
his own and not some one else's
gift. The field for the exercise
of these various gifts is "one
another." Each individual, no
matter what his station in life
may be, awes a duty, by virtue
of his gift, to each individual
with whom he may meet. The
common exercise of these gifts
in this way will solve the social
and political problems.
At the close of the service the
student body joined together in
singing a number of well-known
hymns. Miss Stecher, the ac
complished teacher of voice cul
ture, sang several selections to
the delight of all present.
At night the annual sermon
before the students' missionary
society was preached biLthe Rev.
C. K. Bell, of Kings Mountain.
Mr. Bell spoke of "Christ, the
Ideal Missionary." Christ was
ideal as a missionary by reason
of his nature, the character of
His work. His experience as s
carpenter, and His power to hea
the diseases of men. He was
ideal also as a trainer of mission
aries. The address was full o]
thought and was most instruc

Miss Stecher again appeared in
several selections in a very pleas
ing manner.
THE CONTESTS.
The art exhibit this year was
one of the largest and best ever
seen at the college. The stu
dents derserye the well-merited
commendation heard on every
side.
The expression and junior or
ators' contests Monday night for
the Roof medal irijexpression and
the A. A. Whitener medal in
>ratory drew the largest crowd
that had y6t assembled there this
ye'ir. Four young ladies repre
sented the expression depart
ment and three young men in
junior class in the contests.
The expression medal was won
Wv Miss Frances Little Glass of
Reidsville. She read "The Soul
of the Violin," by Margaret M.
Merrill. The junior orators'
medal was captured by Mr. Ar
thur Huffman of Hickory. His
subject was "Victory in Defeat."
Both contests were exciting and
close. The decisions were pleas
ing.
The exercises were interspers
ed with special mucic. All de
partments of the college have
put out work at this commence
ment that proves that very ef
ficient work has been done
through the year.
The Annual address was de
livered Tuesday morning at 10-30
o'clock.
The president of the alumni
association, Attoney A. A.
Whitener, '95, welcomed the
audience in his usual happy way.
After a piano trio by Misses
Moretz, Seaseand Rhodes, Rev.
J. F. Deal, '96, introduced the
speaker of the occasion, Rev. B.
L. Stroup. 'O3, of Newton. The
subject of the address was "A
Sane Enthusiasm."
The speaker was in fine trim,
and the very fine address was
well received by ail present.
The exercises closed with a very
enjoyable piano so'o by Miss
Barbara Rudisill music 'lO.
Immediately at the close of
the address, the Alumni Asso
ciation convened in its annual
business session. The president
called Mr. D. L. Russell, '9B, to
preside over the meeting. After
the regular routine of business,
resolutions of respect to Dr. R .A.
Yoder, our first president, who
died a veek ago. was offered and
received bv a rising vote.
The remaining small deficiency
on the association debt was
raised by subscriptions. Future
finances of the association were
discussed in a very interesting
way. An annual fee of $1 per
member was agreed upon. The
president of the college and the
officers of the association were
instructed to appoint one mem
ber of each class to assist the
treasurer in this matter, and to
keep interest aroused in reun
ions, etc.
Mr. L. R. Hoffman, 'O6, was
elected alumni speaker for next
year, with Rev. l£noch Hite, 'O3.
alternate. Miss Winnie Deal, 07,
was elected essayist for the samo
time, with Miss Pearl Setzer, 'lO,
alternate, After re-electing the
former set of the officers the as
sociation adjourned until the
regular time at next commence
ment.
THE LITERARY ADDRESS.
One of the most enjoyable
events of the commencement
was the literary address deliver
ed Tuesday night by Rev. F. H.
Crossfield, President 'of
Transylvania University at Lex
ington, Ky., and an orator of no
mean ability. He spoke on some
ideals in education and was con
stantly applauded by an audience
which crowded the auditorium of
the college beyond its capacity.
Dr. Crossfield is a handsome
man, with the gracious manners
of a typical Kentuckian, and his
speech flows like a river. A keen
wit added flavor to his able ad
dress.
A broad education, he said,
was better to give to our children
than great moneyed estates.
They stand today on the thres
hold of the hill of opportunity
• erected by the present and the
» past. There is a time in youth
when both boy and girl feel as if
it is time for them to drop out of
r their educational training andl go
to work or get married. They
are not the proper judges.

to do the work a proper citizen-.
ship must be prepared. Such a
man must have brain power and |
breadth of vision. Why have
there been so many failures in
business? Because of lack of
preparation. We have found out
that the business man and farm
er must have his training as well
as the professional man.
There were 9643 names in
Who's Who vear before la t. Of
these 6711 had a complete college
education; 963 had attended col
lege, 889 had attended an aca
demy or normal school and 31
only were "self-made" men and
women. Today competition is
keener than ever before and is
more difficult to make a good
living. Twenty-five years from
now onfy those who have the the
broadest education can succeed.
A Bostonian went to a Ken
tucky horseman and breeder in
Lexington to get a fine driving
animal. He was shown a num
ber of horses. "This one," he
was told, "used to win every
thing but now he is out of date.
That one is blue blooded but
somehow he never could win a
race. This other one is voutag.
She is only three years old but
she had a pedigree that is 0. K.
and she is beginning to sh6w
wonderful paces."
'Stop," said the Bostonian
angrily. 4 'You have shown me a
Has-beener, a Never-waser and
a Will-be-ar. Now by George,
show me an Is-er."
Of all who enter medical
schools, two out of three drop
out at the end of the first year.
Manv lawyers and more preach
ers drop by the wayside. And
yet there are not anywhere near
enough of the ministers at least
to do the Church's work, The
trouble is that too many miss
their calling. It is a part of the
education of a day to help one to
find what he is fitted for.
Education of the best kind is
not to enable a man to acquire
dollars and cents but to partici
pate in the joys of life. A man
who ran a stationary engine once
inherited a fortune. He quit
working for $6.00 a day and re
tired. But in a few weeks he
was. back at his old job at the
same salary. He snid he didn't
enjoy anything else.
Above all education should be
Christian. Jonathan Edwards
was the grandfather of Aaron
Burr and yet the world knows
which was the most valuable
man to his day and generation.
The speaker scored the higher
criticism and showed that the
laws of comparative philology
which one great Oriental scholar
used to prove that Jesus was riot
born at Bethlehem and that He
was not the son of God might be
used 2000 years hence to prove
that a man by the name of
Roosevelt was merely a farmer
living on \ plain who raised
roses. There must be the culti
vation of common sence with
Christian education.
BANQUET.
The annual banquet- at the
Huffry Tuesday night was one in
which good fellowship and mer
riment were in evidence. Presi
dent of the Alumni Association
A. A. Whitener presided and
made an ideal toastmaster. One
of the best toasts was that made
by Rev. R. L. Patterson of Char
lotte, who was jocularly assigned
the theme: "Canadian Reciproc
ity" but who faeatly turned it to
a plea for more reciprocity be
tween the Tennesee and North
Carolina Synods and for a con
solidation of their educational
interests.
CONCERT.
The auditorium could # hardly
hold the crowd which heard the
last event, the annual concert.
Wednesday evening. The or
chestra rendered during * the
evening Gurlitt's Marionettes,
Gounod's Faust Waltz, a Tone
Poem from Roberts and Strauss'

quantities which constitute a well
poised Christian man.
