Investigating the
Mysteries Of Science

THE right of woman in the
4 world of science is no longer
questioned and the Brenau Girl
will take her place among the fore
most, because she is taught to in
vestigate things for herself, not
merely to learn formulas out of a
book.
The various laboratories at
Brenau contain a great deal of ex-
pensive equipment, but, in order
that the scientific spirit may be
developed, the Brenau Girl is en-
couraged and taught to make
much of the simpler apparatus re-
quired
The laboratory method Of study
is not only used in the nat
ural sciences, but in psychological
study as we'll and original results
obtained in this department have
been published in scientific jour

Finding the Way
Toa Mans Heart

TOO many cooks spoil the
| broth, but one good cook is a
rare treasure nowadays The
Brenau Girl realizes this, and as
she wishes to be a thoroughly
rounded woman, one capable Of
directing her own home, or, if nee
essary able to mix cake or'cook
a meal, she devotes a part of her
time to perfecting herself in those
household arts which were the
chief pride of the women of the
sixties.
Under skilled instructors she
learns to reduce household drudg-
cry to science. She is taught
food values. economy, the value
Of artistic surroundings in the
home and the means whereby
sb- may obtain the best results in
all phases of her home work.
She docs not expect to take a
position as cook, but she is
taught to believe that she should
know more about the principles of
cookery than the cook whom she
will direct.

Why the Brenau Girl Is Dis
tinctive Among College
Graduates
"Art In Life''

THE quotation, "a thing of
/ beauty and JOY forever, "
applies not only to the Brenau
Girl, but to the creations of her
brush as well. The Brenau Girl,
however, is interested in art not
merely for the purpose of learn
ing how to paint pictures, but IN
order that she may cultivate her
taste for the beautiful She learns
to see the possibilities in even the
common things Of life, and to
transform them into things of
beauty, For her the world has a
new meaning Field and sky and
wooded hill reflect new glories to
her beauty-seeking eye, and pro
vide unending studies for her
brush.
In the studio, she learns pre-
cision of technique; outdoors she
touches the bigness of nature, the
mysteries of life and growth, and
through the spiritual sensitiveness
thus developed, she learns the true
artistic ideal.

The Influence of Education

Library

THE Brenau Girl is fortunate in
L that she has every facility for
euItiyating her taste for the
best in literature Early in her
college career she finds her way to
the library; and, even though she
formerly has not cared particular
ly for books. the attractive read
ing room, with its seven thousand
and more volumes, soon becomes
her favorite resting place.
1t is then but short step to in
vestigating the contents of the
many books: and, almost before
she knows it. she has acquired a
love of good reading.
This brings her in touch with
the great men and women of all
ages. She becomes member Of
the ''aristocracy of learning, and
her education is given that in
dehnable supplementary touch
which goes deeper than mere rote
learning.

About To Say
Goodbye

THE Brenau Girl approaches

ings Of elation and sadness
elation at the prospect of holding
the diploma that entities her to
call Brenau her alma Mater, 5"
and sadness because she must
leave the many friends that col
lege years have given her.
The bright aspect of the good
bye. however, is that she may
meet each year with the alumnae
at the annual dinner. and that
she prizes this privilege is shown
by the large attendance of the
"old girls every year at com
meneement
The loyalty and love Of old
Brenau Girls, scattered all over
the nation, is the most precious as
set of Brenau, and is the guaran-
tee of the ever-continuing growth
Of the dear old college.
