felt sorry for any young people
away from home for the first time
who did not get homesick. They
should not forget the sacrifices and
the toll and love Of those at home
who were sending them to college.
He hoped that the thought Of these
things would be an inspiration to
them during the year, and that they
would so conduct themselves that at
the end Of the session those at home
would be glad that the sacrifice had
been made.
The Rev. Edward Fulenwider.
The Rev. Edward Fulenwider, pas
tor Of the Lutheran Church Of the
Redeemer, was introduced as pastor
Of the College church. He said he
was glad to see so many new stu
dents present. He told the students
not to be afraid of homesickness, but
to beware Of relapses. As pastor Of
the college church, and in the name
Of the members Of the church, he ex-
tended to them all a welcome to ev-
cry service Of the church, and to the
hearts and homes Of the members.
The church was their church, he
said, and the parsonage their home.
DIR. j. w. Wolling.
DIR. J. W. Woling; pastor of Gen.
tral Methodist church, said that
there had been good many Metho-
dists in the student body last ses-
sion, and, so far as he had been able
to learn, they were moderately good.
He said there was one thought which
he desired to impress on this occas-
ion. The students Of the college were
in the way for great success-not
large success, necessarily, as the world
counts large success-but in the
way for that success which consists
IN finding out what true success is.
True success, he said, was intel
lectual and moral and spiritual. The
best success was that which trans
muted gold into intellect. He be-
lleved there was a success largely In
dependent Of financial affairs. The
greatest success the world ever
knew was the success of Him Of
whom it was written that he became
poor that We might be rich.
Mr. Charles J. Shealy.
Mr.. Charles J. Shealy, of the Sem
ior class, spoke on behalf Of the stu
dent body. He said the students ap-
preeiated the opportunities which,
were afforded them, and promised the
faculty and the board of trustees the
help of the students in making this
the banner year of Newberry college.
The student body would be behind
them, he said, and the sympathy and
the loyalty Of the student body might
be depended upon.

DR.. O. B. Mayer was introduced as
A member Of the board of trustees.
He said it was a source Of great
pleasure to him 10 lock over the as

Der of students. It was different a
2,;:4ti;er u ;ca:s ago, he said, when
he effort was to keep the college in
existence. The question once was
whether the college should go on or
should stop. The wisdom in going on
lad been proved, he said, in the large
Measure Of success Of to-day. NJ rne
