We spend our days at Trevecca Nazarene College. The LIGHT has come to us. May we go forth as LIGHTS to those who sit in darkness. "Ye are the LIGHT of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hid . Let your LIGHT so shine before men, that RIGHTEOUSNESS they may see your good works and glorify your Father which is in heaven." FINE ARTS BUILDING McKAY HALL Field Representative I 1 . The call of youth on the Southeastern Zone with LIGHT from Trevecca Nazarene College. We, the annual staff and student body dedicate the 1955 volume of The DARDA to our Field Representative who has given so much to make Trevecca a better institution. IN LOVING MEMORY OF MRS. A. K. BRACKEN TEACHER, COUNSELOR, FRIEND 1 GOD CALLED HER NAME She raised her eyes from the roll book In her tender, thoughtful way, And said, as she opened the textbook, "Two are absent today." Then she whispered with tears in her voice Her words like a wistful prayer, "When the roll is called in heaven I hope no one's missing up there." Day after day as she taught us She often repeated the phrase. Other than "Psych" and Botany, She talked about God and His ways; She seemed to know when a student was down, The touch of her loving hands Gave many a lift to a discouraged heart As she whispered, "God understands." And God came one day, stood by her side, And whispered, "Child, well done; I'm adding new names to the roll book of heaven And you are the chosen one." So she laid her work aside And softly slipped away To dwell among the Chosen Ones In God's Eternal Day. We miss her tender counsel, Her words of faith and cheer. The stamp of her life is engraved on our hearts And her voice reechoes here. But her roll book lies unopened, Her desk is guiet and bare; For they called her name in heaven And she was not missing there. I know a man who stands on a hill, With wisdom of life in his face. The lines that time has placed there, Tell a story of strength and of grace. I know a man who stands on a hill, With a vision for youth in his eyes. There are lives to be molded, a task to be done And buildings must climb to the skies. I know a man who invested his life, In a task that could not be done. Yet he is unconquered for God leads him on And smiles on the victory he won.

This year's Council under the direction of the president, Wayne Sharpes, was the first to act under the new Constitution which was inau- gurated by the Council of 1953-54. Also, for the first time in the history of the Student Council of Trevecca an office was provided for the group NORMA CARPENTER Secretary DR. HOMER J. ADAMS Sponsor which is adequate for all its needs. This room, located in the Fine Arts Building, is large enough to provide a meeting place for the entire council. Among the accomplishments of this year's Student Council was the sponsoring of a drive for furniture for the new student center; the presenta- tion of John Stockton, general treasurer of the Church of the Nazarene, as the Student Council Lecturer; the revision of the Student Handbook; and steps toward the establishment of a high school council.

This is "To foster and maintain the aims, ideals and standards of Trevecca Nazarene College and of the Church of the Nazarene." 25 IN AMERICAN COLLEGES AND UNIVERSITIES VI ' J'/ . .... -.. , .
