SOMETHING NICE
As I mentioned la.'t week, it
m good to set- something nice
printed about young people in
stead of always seeing the bad
s;de. There is much talk about
the younger generation going
wild—but I wish you could
have seen the group of young
people who went to <' uar'e-Aun
on the Junior Historical Soc.ety
trip last Saturday.
The Society is a

are happy to have been selected
to receive this citation and an
invitation is extended to all
citizens to attend the presen
tation ceremonies at the post
office and hear addresses by
Congressman Dorn and Mr.
Parson. We are grateful to the
Newberry Concert Band, the

R.chard E. Bakor, Mrs. James
E. Wiseman Sr., president of
t le Cj v ie El 'ague, the Civic
League inember:', and others
who have agreed to participate
“;n tho event of inclement wea-
'h.or, the program will be held
in tho County Court room at
the Courthouse.”
An overflew crowd of some
1400 persons attended the ded
ication and naming of the A.
G. D. Wiles Chapel at Newber
ry College Sunday afternoon.
The Rev. Fred E. Dufford,
D D , chairman of the Board of
Trustees, preached the dedica
tory sermon, using as his sub-
joct "A Tent For The Body
And A Temple For The Soul.”
He called for tho Chapel to be
a “place where youth will come
alive to Cod alive to one's
higher self and alive to the
iii'eds and claims of others."
The sneaker said that there
must be times when all of us
stumble into the presence of
Cod. hut here we hope to lead
mir youth into the presence of
God. “1 lore we hope t hat all
who conic to worship wili see
the horizon of the Eternal,”
Dr. Dufford said. “We want
this Chapel and the services
that are to be held here to in
spire and stimulate the instinct
for the highest peaks. The
greatest danger for most of
us is not that we aim too
high and miss it, but that we
aim too low and reach it."
Greetings were brought by
the presidents of the three
synods of the Lutheran church
in America which own and sup
port Newherry College, and
from the Rev. E. Eppling Rein-
artz, I).D., president, Lutheran
Theological Southern Seminary
and Fred Schott III, president,
Luther League of the Luther
an Church in America, and a

is the Ford of all expressions
of life.”
