simply drifting thru school, and
then go thru life with apparently
ro definite purpose. The people who
have achieved success are those that
have had a dominant purpose in
their lives.
We considered the life of Isa-
bella Thoburn and how she was able
to accomplish such a wonderful
work among the women of North
India who are so sadly in need OF
Outstanding influences.
Then we took up a few phases OF
Tie life of Paul du Chaillu, the mis-
sionary explorer of the jungles of
Africa. How he was shipwrecked
off the coast of that great Continent
and almost dead from exhaustion.
How God imbued in the heart Of q
rough and ready sailor, the great
purpose to do something for these
cannibals who picked him up ready
TO serve him as a dainty meal. Cir
cumstances compelled him to stay,
but God used him richly for the fur
thcrance Of his kingdom.
We will continue to lay stress on
having a definite purpose for ones
life work, and our next meeting
will be taken up with three other
missionaries, men and women of
p lrpOse. We trust that when the
call comes TO us, il will find us
ready and prepared with a strong
disciplined character, with a good
knowledge Of the Bible and a clear
experience of God in our lives.
Remember the place Of meeting.

A FORWARD STEP OF THE NOR
NAL DEPARTMENT

The Normal students have taken
q step toward progress which
should invite the attention of the
other departments. Toward the

group of students went TO the Nor
NAL dean with the suggestion that
If they were permitted to perfect

twice a month at the regular chapel
hour for a brief chapel exercise
ana a discussion of departmental

be secured. The dean fell readily
into line with the proposition and
threw open the chapel period TO
the students for the inauguration
OF such a movement. On account

FIGHTING PARsoN' COMES TO
BEREA

The fighting parson," otherwise
known as DR.. Elmer l.. Williams OF
Chicago, will address the students
Of Berea College at chapel Thurs
day morning, April 10. DR.. Will
liams comes here under the aus
pices of the intercollegiate Prohibi-
ton Association in the newly inaug-
urated movement among the col
leges of the country FIR World
Prohibition.
DR.. Williams was student leader
at his alma mater, Dickinson Col
lcge. Pennsylvania, and since his en-
trance into public life, has had o
spectacular career. When he went
TO Chicago as pastor Of Grace Meth
odist Episcopal church, he found
an abominably corrupt condition IN
the moral life Of his community.
with all of his virility and bulldog
tenacity, he attacked the situation
and cleaned up the district. The
piOleCleu LOilt was cilihihdtcu W.
spite attempts made on DR.. Will
liams' life and suits against him for
thousands Of dollars. One result
Of his battle was his appointment
as a member of the staff of the CHIEF
of Police of Chicago: the only
preacher who ever held such a posi-
tion.
As a chautauqua lecturer, student
OF social problems, and member Of
numerous civic enterprises, DR.. Will
liams holds a national reputation.
As a speaker before college students,
he is reputed as being among the
most popular. DIR. Williams should
have a large hearing at Berea.

BEREA AND THE I. p. A.

Every student at Berea College
will have the opportunity on Thurs
dey. April IS, to learn of the we'll
known college organization-the 7.

hibition Association, and headed by

II was organized on the campus
first in 1901, but the activity was
carried on but for a couple of years.
Reorganization was effected on the
local campus in 1910, and from that
time, work has been aggressively
carried forward. In the spring OF
the following year, Berea had forty
students in the local option fights.
With large and intensely interested
study classes, rousing oratorical
contests, lecture courses, and active
dcputation work, the local organiza-
tiOn soon grew TO be one Of the
strongest in the state if not in the
nation. Each year saw the work
a bit stronger than the year be-
fore. It would take more space than
we have available 10 give any ade-
quate account of all work carried
on. In the spring Of 1913 six Berea
students spent great deal Of time
in giving prohibition lectures in
surrounding towns. Two years
later fifteen students saw TO it
that every church in the city and
within a radius of six miles had a
prohibition program presented. In
1916 the membership was swelled
TO 255, and 81 delegates went to
Lexington TO the National conven-
ton. Considerable work was done
for War Prohibition and later for
National Prohibition in the consti-
tuition.
Berea has been one Of the strong
organizations in Kentucky State /.
p. A. The first Berea man TO hold
a state office was T. J. Terry, who
was treasurer in 1910, and who was
state secretary the following year.
IT. 1912 f. f. Gabbard won the state
prohibition OratOrical contest. The
next year. f. Sellers Of the local
school, duplicated the feat at
the state contest, and Carter
Robinson was elected secretary. In
1894 Waldo b. Dawson was state
president, who was followed the en-
suing year by Judson Harold as
state reporter. C. p. Dodson was
state secretary for the year Of 1915
is. and was followed in the same
office the next year by Robert N.
Edwards. Berea's record in the state
organization is one Of which she
may be proud.
