Popeye, Olive Oyl, Hillbillies Appear At Fish Initiation

"I am u Slime! Everybody knows I um a Slime!" In spite of the fact that freshmen are green and slimy, l\Ionday ,afternoon they became old-fashion ladies with bustles of towels and pillows, u draped sheet or bed-spread skit·t, and hair upward to the lop of their heads. Sophomores were rushing· about inspecting the new bunch of greenies and demanding the pledge. Promptly at five the all-fish parade began. With the aid of a wastebasket drum beut upon with two Rlicks, a greenish drum ni.ajor, who had bragged about he1" high school pastime, twirled the mop han-dle and led the singing freshmen over the walks of the campus.

Popeye, Olive Oyl, Columbus, l\lodel T Ford, Hillbillies and the W. Lee O'Daniel's family, Indians, the Ritz Brothers, all were present at the Fish-Soph gathering Tuesday aftnnoon with paint and rouge to ~pare over legs, face and arms. Each sophomore presented her :t;resh-men charges in :1 skit which the fish had to arrange and present.

Tuesday evening the slimes were blindfolded with their o~n towels and led here and there over the cam-pus and made to do tricks while still blindfolded. They were allowed to go through· a specially constructed BOGEY HOUSE in Burt basement. When sophomore president, Ruth Dorman, thought the fre-shmen had worn off enough of their slimy and green look, she had them un-blind-foldcd and f:erved peppermint candy. With the singing of the new welcome song of the sophomore class and Taps, f1·eshmen were proclaimed as a real part of Mary Hardin-Baylor college,

This is tJie welcome which we should like to extend to all freshmen and new students who have come to our college this year. We are not only "mighty glad to have you come," but we also "hope you will feel ati home" on our campus.

In welcoming you, we hope that you will become a· part of our student ;body and that you will catch the spirit of friendliness and happiness which exists on our campus. Mary Hardin-Baylor girls are known for their smiles and for their friendly ~ttitude, not only to visitors on our campus but to our fellow classmates. So whenever you meet someone on the campus, smile and give her a cheery and friendly greeting. It will not only make that one feel better, hut it will he1p the days to be happier and more. joyous for you. ·And most of all, a kindly attitude inakes the campus a much nice place to live.

Since Mary Hardin-Baylor is to be our home this year, we should strive to make our life here as enjoyable and· as com-fortable as possible. A tidy and an attractive room will ·add much to making our attitudes and dispositions' more agreeable. We sliould also watch our personal appearance and take ad-vantage of every opportunity to improve our personalities and make ourselves fit into campus life. In other words, when our college year has ended we hope that you can sa·y you are glad you came our way.

Personality Progral!l and Our Students

The personality development prQgram which has been an-nounced by the· administration for this year will perhaps be one of the most ·beneficial opportunities which· has ever been offered us as students in Mary Hardin-Baylor. As was suggest-ed by The Bells staff last year, such a program ,:will offer the opportunity for each of us to develop· our personal qualities to such an extent .that we shall become more charming, have more poise, and be much better equipped to meet problems which we .. shall have after leaving the campus.

DR. HARDY and DR. SINGLETON

"Dr. Hardy bad spent fifty years in school -life, mainl,- in three insti-tutions. One-half of this time was spent her,e :with Mary Hardin-Baylor. This is a remarkable record, worthy of any man. Dr. Hardy came to Bel-ton just at the upward surge of the tremendous tide in education that bas carried the American college to heights undreamed of before. Also this period has passed through the greatest war and the greatest d&o pression in the history of our coun-try. These events have completely changed the thinking and feeling of the nation. In these twenty-five years, Dr. Hardy stood steadfastly for the Christian culture that also prepared for practical Christian living. He has sought to~ change in order to meet · a changing world, yet to preserve the things of value. His oft repeated TRIO TO SING OLD INDEPENDENCE

There really are a lot of PUZZLED underclassmen. But what can you EXPECT when even the SENIORS admitted at STEWED government meeting that "the years have made us-SAPPY." .

To Dr. Hardy

•

At the break of the Christian day, Sunday, the life of a great Christian man, Dr. John Crumpton Hardy, closed, and on the day which originally marked a religious ceremony, last rites were held for this one who was known first by all as a great Ch1istian man.

"I can do all things through ChriJt_ whlo strengtheneth me," was one of the favorite quotations of Dr. Hardy, and this expresses better than all words his character, which could never be thought of without connecting his religion. And through that religion he has been a "bright and shining light" to all lives which he has contacted in his many years of serv-ce~ ·

Dr. Hardy was kn·own as a crusader for young women-for their rights, and for their happiness, and that this has been his chief interest during his twenty-six years of service here has been shown through the personal attention he has given to every student who has passed through the halls of Mary Hardin-Baylor. His "Happy? Glad you're living?" is a never-to-be-forgotten .statement on this campus, for he has cheered many students as he met them daily with this greeting ac-companied by a smile.

Daily he demonstrated "service before self," and his atti-lued toward each girl gave her inspired faith and confidence. His wisdom and understanding and his deep insight into hu-man life kept him beloved by all the students, as well as others who were privileged to know him.

Mrs. I. S. Myer, President,

State Alumnae Association. "Dr. Hardy was one of the most

remarkable useful men I have known. As a Christian gentelman, · a success-ful educator, and a denominational leader he was favorably known throughout the South. His fine opti-mism, his dauntless courage, and his unusual resourcefulness were well known. I feel with many others that I have lost a very dear friend, and the state has lost a distinguished citizen." ,

Walter H. McKenzie, Member of Board of Trustees.

Pastor University Baptist church, Austin.

The following message is written by a membe~ of the faculty who, for many years, bas served :with Dr. Hardy: ·

"Dr. Hardy possessed many fine qualities that made one love him. His great courage, sympathy, and high ideals were constantly an inspi-ration to me."

Miss Belle James.

R. B. James, Belton, member of Board of Trustees::

"In the passing of Dr .. J. C. Hardy, we have lost one of our greatest citizens. He was a true and loyal friend, a courageous spirit, a cultur-ed gentleman, a g1•eat friend of ed-ucation. To know him was to love him."

ed over nearly half a century. He was the youngest man ever to be elected to the presidency of a state jnsti£ulion-in--Mississippi, he being 3'if years . of age at that time. Dr. Hardy succeeded two distinguished men as president of Mississippi A. & M., who were both many years his senior.

Dr. Hardy came to M~ssissippi A. & M. as president with ambitions to be a tangible service to the farmers of that sblte, whose problems he knew so well. His service there was characterized by expansion and de-velopment.

In 1912, after thirteen years as president of Mississippi A. & M., Dr. Hardy came to Belton where he serv-ed as president of Mary Hardin-Bay-lor for 25 years. Only a year before he came to the college, the academy and college had been separated, and the actual enrollment was fewer than a,..hund1·ed students when he arrived. He later discontinued the academy and built up the colle~e enrollment where it far exceeded both the col· lege and academy in his first year.

During the years of Dr. Hardy's presidency seven major buildings have been erected: Ferguson Hall in

Bowman; hisforian-custodtan, Lela Toungate; basketball manager, Jo Joiner. Corinne Herndon is secretary of the association.

----e---LIBRARY SHOWS SPECIAL EXHIBITS

During the last week several special exhibits have beeu displayed In the college library. In honor of Dr. Hardy, pictures, articles, clip-pings, nnd letters or tribute to -him were displayed on the Loan Desk.

To Dr. Hardy

-. - _r-- - --·-

At the break of the Christian day, Sunday, the life of a great Christian man, Dr. John Crumpton Hardy, closed, and on the day which originally marked a religious cere~ony, last rites were held for this one who was known first lby all as a great Christian man.

"I can do all things through ChriSt_ whio strengtheneth me," was one of the favorite quotations of Dr.- Hardy, and this expresses better than all words his character, which could never be thought of without connecting his religion. And through that religion he has been a "bright and shining light" to all lives which he has contacted in his many years of serv-ice.

Dr. Hardy was kn!Own as a crusader for young women-for their rights, and for their happiness, and that this has been

· r - ··hiB' chief interest during his twenty-six years of service here has been shown through the personal attention he has given to every student who has passed through the halls of Mary Hardin-Baylor. His "Happy? Glad you're living?" is a never-to-be-forgotten statement on· this campus, for he has cheered many students as he met them daily with this greeting ac-companied by a smil~.

Miu Sory will also read at the meeting of the Belton Lion's Club Monday. She will give a program of Negro poetry from James Weldon JohDBon's · volume, "God's Trom-bone•."

remarkable useful men I have known. As a Christian gentelman, a success-ful educator, and a denominational leader he was favorably known throughout the South.

I feel with many others that I have lost a very dear friend, and the state has lost a distinguished citizen." ,

The following message is written by a member. of the faculty who, for many yeara, bas served :with Dr. Hardy:

"In behalf of the teachers of Texas I extend to you our tenderest sym-pathy in your bereavment. We re-gard Dr. Hardy as one of our truest friends. We . all loved him."
