Her vital Christian experience, her high appreciation of fine music, her staunch adherence to scholastic prin ciples have been a constant inspiration for better living to the students of Olivet. In appreciation of her years of unselfish service, her sincere devo tion to the church and college, her words of encouragement and her friendship—we dedicate the 1950 Auioia to D r . E lla Leona Gale [ 1 0 ] to those we left behind Dr. R o y V. Sta r r “ ^Hlesseb are tlje beab fahith btein tl|e |5orb . - that Iheg mag rest from tt|eir labours; anh their faorbs bo folloto tljem.” ^Reb. 14:13. Dr. Roy V. Starr, for over twenty-five years a loyal and active trustee of Olivet Nazarene College, met death suddenly one morning. His home-going brought grief to our hearts, and as the days pass by we miss his cheery greeting and his wise counsel. But when we pause to reflect we remember the words of the Master he so faithfully served, “And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto me.” Then we know his face was lifted to Eternity and that he went foith with calm, untroubled eyes. [ 1 2 ] Lord, when Thou seest that my work is done, Let me not linger on With failing powers, Adown the weary hours,— A workless worker in a world of work. But, with a word, Just bid me home And 1 will come Right gladly,— Yea, right gladly Will 1 come. J. O. R e v . W. R. G il l e y She passed away, like morning dew, Before the sun was high; So brief her time, she scarcely knew The meaning of a sigh. Love was her guardian Angel here, But love to death resigned her Tho’ love was kind, why should we fear, But holy death is kinder? H. C. \ V irg ie H a l l K y l e M arg a ret J ea n B arsalo u When on my day the evening shadows fall, I will go down to where a quiet river flows Into a sea from whence no man returns; And there embarks for lands where life immortal grows. [ 1 3 ] The Board of Trustees Olivet Nazarene College is genuinely proud of the men who serve so wholeheartedlv the cause of Christ and this institution. To these men we pledge a like devotion and thereby honor their sacrifices for us. EASTERN MICHIGAN INDIANAPOLIS CENTRAL OHIO Rev. W. M. McGuire Rev. J. W. Short Dr. Harvey S. Galloway Rev. E. W.

Edwin Harwood Personnel & *A l tf&£ COUNCILING OUR TASK Olivet Nazarene College is today the largest insti tution of learning in the Church of the Nazarene. Be cause of that fact, in a certain sense, it must set the pattern for the entire denomination. It must chart the course in adjusting a campus of twelve hundred stu dents to the ideals and vision of our beloved church. Olivet is not only a Liberal Arts College, it is a Holiness College. “Education with a Christian Pur pose” is its motto and it sets forth the clear-cut func tion which it performs. The centrality and essentiality of its Christian purpose is constantly kept in mind by the Administration, Faculty, Board of Trustees and Student Body. Our institutional goals recognize that our college is an institution of the Church of the Nazarene. While students of twenty denominations and more are in attendance this year, the college underscores as of paramount importance the fundamental beliefs, prin ciples, and emphasis of the Church of the Nazarene. The college seeks to provide a well rounded Liberal Arts education in an atmosphere of Christian culture. The Liberal Arts enrollment continues to grow. As an illustration of that point, our graduating class this year is the largest in the history of the college. Olivet Nazarene College must continue its clear vision of its primary responsibility to Cod, the Church and Nazarene Youth. It must seek first the Kingdom of Cod, knowing that all material, cultural, and spiritual blessings will be added in the Will of God to our esteemed college. HAROLD W. REED, A.B., M.S., Tli.D.
