Mercer boys’ hopes for mote fem
inine applicants . are gradually
strengthened each yoar, tor two more
of thoir tribe have boon added to the
faculty this year. Mrs. J. L. Jssup
and Mrs, Helen .T, Miller, of Muoon,
have this distinction of being the
third and fourth women instructors
on the regular Mercer University
faculty.
The large increase of students tsk
-^ing modern languages this year has
resulted in the recent election of Mr*.
Jessup as assistant French teacher.
Mrs. Jessup is a graduate of Brenau
College and comes to Mercer highly
recommennded, having studied for
some times under the careful instruc
tion of Mrs. Comer, a prominent
French teacher of the Wesleyan
faculty.
The rapid growth of the Journalism
department has manifested its need
of an instructor in the art of writing
short stories tor, publication, so this
need was indeed fortunately met in
Securing the services of Mrs. Miller,
whose stories are read not only in
Georgia but ■ in other states. This
course will be taught next term by
Mrs. Miller.

A GREATER MERCER
By Carl Brsome
Dig deep, thou swarthy son of labor,
and plant
Greater Mercer's earth-cradled firm
foundations;
The tides of time must never shake
her, ^
Lovelier, mightier shall We' make
■ her
Till she shall speak in power through
many nations.
From the tender heart of God in
righteous strength
Let her granite pillars, truth-embla-
fened rise; 1
For earthly walls is not her power,
. Nor pointed spins her purest
flower,
Bat MEN, true men, within her
bower
Who minor the flume of Love within
thoir eyM. • ■
She shall be loved and loving is a
beautiful mother
. Who graciously gives of herself for
, her own;
For they shall he n part of her,
They shall know the heoit «t her.
Learn true sonship’a art other,
And bread she shall glue Instead of
a atone.'

"You win have to g* bkek where
poa loot God to find Him again” was
the keynote of Dr. W, W. Hamilton’s
talk to tbs Mercer students TSasday
morning at chapel. Dr. Hamilton la
superintendent of tbe Home Mission
Board of Southern Baptist Conven
tion and comas to Macon in the in
terest of the Baptist city-wide revi
val, holding services at the Tattnall
■are jlaptist church in thi even
ings and at the chapel in the morn
ings. Mr. Jamas Jslks was leader of
the song services.
Dr. HamOton based his talk on the
second chapter of Luke
three main questions in outlining the
part where Jesus as a boy, was lost in
the city of Jerusalem. The. first of
these questions, "where did they lose
Jesus t” was briefly discussed by the
speaker. “They lost Him away from
home in the city and they also lost
Him at the place of privilege,” de
clared Dr. Hamilton. “You are at the
place of privilege here in this univer
sity.” A
Wednesday A. M.
“There are four thing I want to
suggest,” said Dr. Hamilton after
reading a few verses from Matthew
in regard to the betnyal of Jesus by
Judas, “and the first of these is that
the statement was made by a church
member. The man who Can be of more
harm to this institution is the man
who professes to be a Christian but
is a traitor,” declared the speaker
"Ij the second place he waa selling
the name of Jesus, and thirdly, ho
sold out tor a small price,” added Dr.
Hamilton. “Men, the greatest vic
tory a man gets is when he ia victori
ous over his own sin through the
Lord Jesus Christ”
In speaking of the fourth sugges
tion, the results of his selling his God
for thirty pieoee of silver, Dr. Hamil
ton stated that we could hardly think
of what it meant to him, to the other
disciples, to all men, and to God.
'Men, are you willing to put out the
thing that is wrong T” was the ques
tion the speaker left with the stu
dents.
Thursday A, M.
“That man’s choices had bean sin
ful and worldly” was the first of Dr.
Hamilton’s reasons -why Jeans re
fused to answer Herod’s q
Ho further stated that this man never
saw Jeans before, hut he was against
Him before be saw Him.
"He went with the wrong crowd,”
is the second reason given by the
speaker. “He silenced religious im
pressions” was the third reason given.
This last reason is explained by *
man who knows he is landing n sinful
life but will not change.
“This man looked upon Joans as n
sort of cariosity,” said tbs speaker.
In illustrating this reason Dr. Hamil
ton told the story of n boy at Rugby
who was leading the wrong lift and
was told that he would have to leave.
At an earnest request by the boy ho
was allowed’to stay’ on probation.
After making good he waa naked how
he succeeded in overoumiag his
wrongs at Rugby. As an explanation
he told of horning the letter “R" in
the palm of his hand ao whan wrong
presented itself he wotild set the let
ter and think of Rugby.
In conclusion Dr. Hamilton said,
“Men, I can-tall yon somralng batter
than that Print the Croea of Jesus
in the palm of yoar hand. 1
