CEDARVILLE COLLEGE IS THE COLLEGE fOR THE CITY BOY’ OR GIRL ends in September. Mr, DaVis is one of the best qualified engineers in this best teams available, therefore he is (College Bulletin) Sufficient prominence is not always given to the social and common life which . characterizes most o f the American colleges. Those colleges in our largo cities ,in which nearly all the students reside at home, have a much less energetic public life. The social and intellectual influences of the students upon one another are mainly restricted to the classroom. Those colleges in which the -num­ ber of students ia very small, furnish a public opinion, which is more con­ trolling for good. It is to these small colleges that the city boy and girl turns for the four years o f col­ lege life. The college community is emphatically an isolated one; farther removed than almost any other from the ordinary influences o f family and social life. But in Cedarville Col­ lege, a splendid blending o f home atmosphere and college life is effected. In no community are the factious distinctions of lfc, as of wealth, birth and manners of So little account in comparist n with intellect, generosity and open-heartedness. For the city boy who has attended a large high school, a place on our college varsity teams will be the natural result. He has had the bene- its of good coaching and playing the section o f the state and he has had a wide experience with the state high­ way department and, in railroad en­ gineering. He was first appointed to succeed Joseph Fawcett in Juno 1918. The commissioners have not yet made an announcement of his successor. mi »M6 YOUNG MAN DIED FRIDAY Mr. Gale Hamilton of Dayton, son of Mr. and Mrs. Edward Hamilton, of this place, died Friday night at the home o f his parents due to a complication o f diseases as the re­ sult of the flue two years ago.

Stevens before the family left foy Greenfield where the funeral Was held Monday morning at 10:30. Mr. and Mrs. O. E.

Irr the small colleges, which Gedar- ville represents, the students actually recite under the heads of the depart­ ments, The expenses are exception­ ally low, so any boy or girl who longs for a college education, can realize his fondest dreams by coming to Cedarville with limited funds. Cedarville College is an institution favorable to earnest religious thought and a positive religious faith. There are churches of four denominations located here, And a Seminary in con­ nection with the College, Whatever else is taken from the college, its associations, friendships, and inspiring influences must all re­ main, Very many even o f our col­ lege graduates who have turned to the best account all the resources which their Alma Mater could fur­ nish, feel themselves quite as much indebted to the educating influences o f this community for the awaken­ ing and direction o f their energies, as to their studies or their1Instruc­ tors. — r u t h M crherson , Class of 1925. rir<*T-iriiilr,-‘i" ,ftrH-‘in]Viin w .--^ Ty Wilbur White is home after spend­ ing the winter at Twinshurg, 0 „ where he has been teaching.
