V PRESIDENT’S GREETING ‘
S President of the University I wel- `
come you most heartily to its walls
Q for the coming session. Some of
~¤ ` you are now beginning University
( life, others are "old students" returning from
home to finish the great work heretofore be-
3 gun; all of you, I hope, bring with you an
ambition to succeed in the work of educating
i 'yourselves for the life you are to live after
` V graduation.
In the beginning, let me impress upon
your consideration the importance of utilizing
all of your time in improving yourselves
gg while in the University: now is the time
Q; to lay the foundation of a career; if you
neglect it, the opportunity will never come
to you again. Remember that the con-
ditions of success in life are a sound body,
·e’_'j¥’ a sound mind and a good character, plus
’» X unremitting labor. No man ever accom-
,-g£ —5 plished anything worth while without these.
.`; You owe it to yourselves to improve every
j opportunity for making a great career-
~g§ _; you owe it to your parents, who love you
Q better than they love themselves, to live up .
,». to their hopes and prayers for your success-—
; you owe· it to the Commonwealth, whose —
»· beneficiaries you are, to become useful and
T i patriotic citizens—you owe it to God to put
your talents to good use, and, finally, to
n return to Him His own with usury.
VY CW In conclusion:
°, While you are in the University, do your
· K best to improve your mind.
; Go to church every Sunday—to your own,
l · if you are a communicant; if not, to your
r ' l mother’s church—that is good enough for you. /
, i join the Y. M. C. A. and Y. W. C. A., and
» ~ throw your whole influence toward building
·’ up on the campus a high moral atmosphere.
" T{ I By doing these things, not only will you
_ advance your own interests and happiness,
_5§` I·, ‘_ but you will greatly aid in building up a ’
i ‘ g Great University—0ne that is worthy of our
§ .V ' State. Sincerely your friend,
; {_ HENRY S. BARKER.

(

l V What to Do First (
, Committees from the Young Men’s and
‘ Women’s Christian Associations will or iiéi
all trains during opening days, and will glad] i
show all students tosrooms and boarding fy
houses and render all other possible as {
l sistance. If you_do notsee them take a .
g marked "State University" and come directlT`
* to the Association rooms on the second So "
l oi the Gymnasium Building, which is t, _' V,
[ second building from the main entrance q i; `v·· r,
[ Limestone Street. Here you.may leave yo ,
i grips while you make arrangements for ml; ;
and board. A list of these places is kept ·~ J_ yj
\ the Association. Student guides will help §¤
· to get located and will furnish informati '
V about registering, etc., all of which servi ’ * .
are free. . '.
After This—Get Registered af f
Registration will take place in the Armo ' `
· on the first floor of the same building. H `
your credits ready to show them. The v
· ous steps of registration may mix you up ,
~ times, but just take it easy——others have b ` ‘
in the same iix. After all, the ordeal will n ,
be as strenuous as you have feared. l f ’
not lose your classification card for without V .
you cannot attend classes. You must pres ` . '
A to each of your instructors in turn. 5 _
ASK questions and keep on asking.
` Chief among the utilities of the Ass "
= ation during the opening days is to ans ·`
· just such questions as you may be hesita »
~» ab0ut_asking for fear that they may betr 7
j `your rgnorance. But ii you were not so .
what ignorant you wouldn’t be here, so do r l
\. »` ' -
§ Kizwrucxy Ham:-Booz 9
~Y ) be afraid to ask for information or help in/,
ij 5 ( any perplexity which may come to you. Make .
; yourself perfectly at home on the campus .
t` and about the Association rooms. Do not
,= , E ‘ wait for others to make all the advances
( toward fellowship, show yourself friendly.
There will be hundreds in the building during
, the opening days who, like you, are here for
i the Erst time. When you have completed
l your registration, be sure to
Y ` VOLUNTEER for service in helping other
new students to get "onto the ropes." Pre-
sent yourself at the Christian Association
·»{.$i rooms, join the Association and pay your
dues for the entire year.

yang K University Convocations
i°Yi?Q‘ In the spring of this year, the university
m"v`_·§ authorities officially turned over the respon-
sibility for the chapel services to the Christian
· Associations. No efforts, therefore, will be
Y:°j¥j~ spared to make them a great success. These
gatherings are religious in nature and for the
4° ENTIRE UNIVERSITY BODY. Some deli-
mte plans are herewith outlined, and the
ry -_€ co-operation of all requested.
There will be one weekly convocation on
,, every Tuesday morning, lasting tifty·mmutes,
gg instead of two sessions of thirty minutes as
I; customary during the past year. Five minutes
i off each regular class will make this feasible.
y In this limit of time, it will be possible to
have not only splendid congregational sing-
3 _ ing, but special music by soloists, quartets,
er .- chorus, orchestra and band, followed by one
2 well prepared address by an able speaker.
Every program will be carefully arranged for
:} _ jV in _adva;1nce. ixnong the many impogtoaint
Q; topics t at wou interest a university y,
V . ; only those will be chosen that will be real
gg contributionshto the life of every man and

' who will undoubtedly make this a popular

* Hospital Club
Among the innovations of the past year’s
work was the establishment of the Hospital
( Club by the Y. M. C. A. No student expects
Mg.; to be sick when he is at college, but the
facts are scores are pqevented every year
from attending classes on account of illness. —
f The Hospital Club of the Christian Associ-
ations (for membership is now open to girls
as well as men), provides a cheap insurance,
A j and every student should be a member. This
3.,5 ( club is a voluntary one of students under the
direction of the Executive Board of the
., Y. M. and Y. VV. C. A. Each club member
pays a fee in advance of $1.00 for the year,
..3*;: l and the Club undertakes to provide hospital
I facilities consisting of a bed in one of the
, -2, city hospitals, board, and nursing during
1;;-. illness. The student pays his own doctor’s
bill. It is not alone that the student receives
attention free of charge; he is better taken
care of, recovers sooner and is in every way
"" safer than when treated in his own room;
besides if afflicted with a contagious disease,
' does not endanger the health of his fellow
Q i? students. No student should fail to sign up
-;jҤ. in this immediately at the opening of school
and at the first chance that is offered.

k¥,Y Every student ought to consider it an
de , essential part of his college training to go at `
il}- least once during his college course, and
18* that as early as possible. It is ditiicult to
if- explain in writing just what Black Mountain
of means. One student who attended the past
_. . year wrote :— It has impressed me immeasur-
{jj ably. Scenery enough to Christianize a na-
tion ot students if they would but go and
J digest those hallowed hills and get their
spirit. It is worth infinitely more than it has
ze cost me in time and money.
1 Employment Bureau
Many students find it necessary to earn
` money with which to help support themselves
while in college. An employment bureau is
M conducted by the Associations for the purpose
°l}*CQ~ of aiding them in securing work. If a student
]§j;a desires to employ part of his time to earn
money he reports to the bureau the number
ihgih of hours he can work. Many good positions
for the students have been secured for them
in this way. There are about fifty various
newspaper routes in the city; all of them are
‘l§%fY carried by college men. The state farm which
ltrg? is part of the University employs many
students. If the prospective student has only
l Q3- one or two hours each day for working, it is
so arranged by the farm managers that he is
, always employed. A number of students wait
on tables at their boarding houses for their
board. The merchants and tailoring estab-
lishments of the city employ students to carry
* bundles. Young men are employed at hotels
and restaurants and others work at numerous
odd jobs at the homes of citizens. A number
m§g` of young men are employed as stenographers
in the city. It is an easy matter for any
‘ Qt student to partially support himself at this
'rgg, school. For further information address Em-
