The college girls who are warmly
clothed. warmly housed and who
have enough TO eat, can scarcely
realize that there are those in Will
mington who do not have the ne
cessities Of life. Men are begging
for work OF any kind and for any
length OF time, even a days work
to try TO secure food for their fam
lilies. Miss Smith told several pa
thetic instances which had come un-
der her own personal observation.
She urged the girls to tell the bu-
reau II they knew of any work any
where. Miss smith, who was the
guest OF the college at dinner, did
not leave Immediately after the ves-
per service. Those girls who talked
with her personally were especially

Dr. Trapnell. OF ST. Andrews
Church, in Wilmington, was the
speaker in chapel on Monday morn
ing. This is Dr. Trapnells first visit
TO the college, not because he has
not been repeatedly invited but be-
cause other engagements have kept
him from coming. Dr. Trapnell
read the story OF the boy Jesus who
went up to Jerusalem with his fam
lily when he was twelve years OF
age. DIR. Trapnell began by sayin5
that It was customary for every
Jewish boy when he reached the ago
OF twelve years to be taken to Jersu
salem and enrolled as a son OF the
law. The doctors and lawyers were
accustomed to question him in order
to find out II he had received the
proper training. tThe boy Jesus was
remarkable for his interest. His in
/ telligent insight. and for the fact
that He asked as well as answered
questions. His answer TO his moth
er when His family return 70 search
for Him shows that He in common
with other boys believed that His
mother would understand any action
without an explanation. The years
between the incident in the Temple
and His active are known as the
silent years in Jesus life. The life
OF Jesus is a revelation OF Gods pur-
pose for man. Jesus was the per
feet man. Jesus said. came that ye
might have life and It more abun-
dainty" The Jews understood that
at. twelve years there is a great
change in the life OF boy. At
that time he feels spiritual things.
The Jews fostered the spirit in their
children. In our complex civiliza-
ton, these vague longings OF the
spirit are more often snuffed cut
