WHY GO TO COLLEGE?
Scores of Reasons May Be Given. The Following Are Com
mended to the Prayerful Consideration of Parents
and High School Boys and Girls
The Experience of Others Should Guide.
No one ever regretted taking a college
course. On the other hand, thousands
daily regret the lack of college training.
It is a Good Investment.
College men and women are in such de
mand that it is impossible to supply
half the calls. In dollars and cents a
college education yields many times more
than it costs.
It Develops Leadership.
The new age beckons the college man and
woman with trained mind and sym
pathetic insight to aid in the great world
war against poverty, ignorance and all
forms of sin.
It is Patriotic.
The college men and women were eagerly
sought during the war and are even more
greatly needed for the problems of peace.
The whole world is in need of Christian
statesmen and Christian leaders. Be a
patriot ? do your college work well!
It Brings Happiness and Joy.
The college friendships are a constant
source of happiness. The wisdom of all
the ages is at the side of the man or wo
man with the trained mind and provides
an abiding source of joy.
The Christian College Seeks to Develop
the Whole Man and Woman.
Faith in Cod and dependence upon His
Word and His Spirit are the prime factors
and force in real education. The true
Christian spirit and atmosphere enlarges
life and emancipates the spirit. "And
I will walk at liberty: for I seek Thy
precepts." (Psalm 119:45.)
The Christian College Gives the Right
Kind of Culture.
"It matters not how well educated a man
may be,'' says Dr. John R. Mott, "if he
goes out into the world with a corrupt
heart and ungoverned will and low ideals,
he is a menace to society and a source of
weakness to the life of the nation."
A Chance for All.
A few scholarships of $100 to $150 each
are still in the Student Loan Fund avail
able for poor boys and girls of approved
ability and character who wish to attend
one of our Presbyterian colleges.
Presbyterian Boys and Girls, Think on These Things. Seek the Counsel of Parents
and Pastors. Ask God to Make the Way Plain
