The weekly address to the students
in chapel was this time delivered by
the Rev. DR.. Cooper of the Broadway
Baptist church. He impressed upon
his youthful audience that they must
prepare themselves not so much to
make living as to make a life. Too
many men sacrifice all ideals, all
goodness of heart, all charity, to the
accumulation of the almighty dollar.
Ardmore, declared the minister, was
never before so intent on money. No
people can think of such a thing ex-
clusively and make anything more
than a living. His appeal was lis
tened to by the student body with
more than the usual careful atten-
tion. That his words had a profound
effect was very evident to all present.
