But often it seems these words are given little, if any, deep signifi cance. Temptations come into everyone’s life; come in a thousand different forms and clothed in apparel of every hue. The ques tion is shall 1 be a weakling as Adam or Eve was and allow temptation to over power me, or shall I be so filled by the desire of rendering service to humanity that I shall be able to combat temptation as Jesus did in the wilderness of Judea ? Many college graduates, when they with draw themselves from the strong protecting walls of home and college, have not yet been exposed to the complete overruling powers of the great common temptations of life. It the actual wilderness of a lowly job does become the resort for many of them, will they fast forty days in this wilderness in order to achieve a nobler purpose? Christ, in overcoming his temptations, faced inevi table anguish in order that He might there after tread the path of a victor over temp tations. Through hardship His path was made even clearer and He won the eternal victory. When one makes such a final surrender to the divine will by avoiding winding paths or crooked roads to seeming fame, the main battle of life is won. The future yet may hold trial and sorrow for such a one, but not defeat. Sometimes a definite decision to do a greater work is made once for all under the pressure of a great temptation. For such a victory as this, no trumpets are blown, no flags borne aloft, but the feeling of God in the darkest hour cheers the conscience. There is none braver than he who struggles in darkness and despair and wins without exaltation. "Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.” Thanks to Oar Artists Much credit goes to Cecil Long for her designing of the front outside cover for the Campus Mirror. The design used on the back of the out side cover was made by Alice Elaine Selby in a class in Applied Art. 3\ e regret that some of the pictures in tended for this number could not be run. A second group of the Freshman class had to be taken, but could not be finished in time for this issue. The fine response which the entire student body have made to the effort to get out this issue has been most encouraging and distinctly helpful. We hope we see a sure promise of the Annual's becoming a per manent custom. The willingness to co-op erate means far more than we think in put- tin g over any project. Send your friend a Campus Mirror. The College Hymn Words by Rev. S. F. Smith, Author of America. Music by Marjorie Alexander Stewart, '32. Dear Spelman, thy daughters rejoice in thy fame, Acknowledge thy beauty, and honor thy name; How fondly we praise thee wherever we roam, And love thee and cheer thee, our school and our home. How lovely the landscape outspread at thy feet, Where hill, vale, and streamlet in harmony meet; Oh, long may thy children with gladness return, To bless the fair spot where thy signal lights burn! How bright was the day when we entered thy hall! What lessons of duty and truth we recall! 3\ e felt new life throbbing, we found a new world, As knowledge its banner above us unfurled. Thy children are known with the brave and the free, The world is made richer, fair Spelman, by thee; Be brave, then, in effort the wide world to bless, God s hand shall support thee and give thee success. Fair Spelman, sit crowned in a beauty thino own, A beacon of grace, and a queen on her throne; Hie wreaths for thy brow are not perish ing bays, But love of thy children and their grate ful praise. President Read Honors Senior Class, Alumnae and Guests The annual reception given by President Head in honor of the Senior Class, alumnae and guests was held Friday evening, June 2nd, from 8:00 to 10:00 at Reynold's Cottage. The lovely atmosphere created by the indoor arrangement and the lighted lawn did much toward making the evening enjoyable. I lie appropriate program given on the lawn included a solo by Mabel Hill man and piano music by Carol Blanton, Cecil Ding, Rosalind Dixon and E. Ixiuise Ltng. One of the delightful features of the evening was the presentation to each Senior, as she passed from the dining room, of a leather bookmark upon which "Spelman, ’33” was engraved. All are gratetnl to Miss Read tor having made possible this pleasant gathering.
