Clubs and News
Y. M. C. A.
In last month’s issue of the Athenaeum, the program of the Y. M.
C. A. for the scholastic year was outlined. The officials have thus far
this year brought to the student body two speakers, who have left
messages that will ever be guiding influences to those that heard
them.
Dr. D. D. Crawford spoke on Sunday morning, November 4th.
His message was in substance, that the people of the world are getting
too sacriligious and are allowing non-essential things to command their
attention. He concluded by saying that, “The Student of today should
be a guiding light and try to emulate the life of Christ as nearly as
possible, in order to save this world from the monstrous catastrophe
that will befall it if Christianity fails.”
The violin solo by Mr. O. E. Jackson and the vocal solo by Mr.
J. Carlyle Walker were enjoyed by all.
Sunday afternoon the 11th of November, Professor E. W. Latson
delivered a wonderful lecture. His words and illustrations were sim
ple, but the thought and message they conveyed were dynamic.
At this writing the President of the Y. M. C. A. ; Mr. C. C.
Patrick, ’25 is out of school because of a misfortune. Mr. B. B.
Eatman the Vice-President, immediately took up the work and is
filling the position commendably. He is also getting splendid sup
port from the student body.
The student body of Morehouse, under the leadership of Mr.
Wm. Horward, ’24 has formulated plans to continue the raising of
the student’s fund. This fund is to be used to help in the erection of
a spacious library and modern gymnasium.
With these assets Morehouse can with greater care cultivate in
men mental and physical potentialities.
