day was an Alumnae meeting. Miss
Ruth Bennett 1921, was the leader.
Miss Edith McDougle, Of the class

Which We Build" Miss McDougle
read the parable OF the house that
was builded on a rock and said that
we must build the houses OF our
lives on the rock OF Jesus Christ.
The walls OF our house should be
righteousness, the floor should be
faith in God, the windows should be
love, through which the lights OF
happiness shall shine. Our lives
can be what we make them. We
must found them upon a rock and
build with good materials or the
storms OF life will sweep our lives
away as they swept away the house
that was builded on the sand Mrs.
Catharine Schunder johnson sang
one OF the favorite hymns. Both
Miss McDougle and Mrs. Johnson
