Foreword America finds herself deeply involved in a world conflict. No longer does the soldier at the front alone bear the brunt of the attack, but also the civilian far from enemy lines as well. Although gas, tires, meat, canned goods and practically everything useful is rationed, we still have much for which to be thankful. America is still a haven of refuge for the re - ligious, for the freedom lovers and for all who desire to abide in a Christian nation. We at Harding should be especially thankful for our year's work. Some of us have had to leave, called by Uncle Sam; others are on the verge of induction. There were enough students left to carryon the Harding plan of devotion, study, fun and play. Out - ings were restricted, but we found plenty to do. Let us remember our class work, the fun we had on outings, ice cream suppers, and picnics. Think in future days of our striving to economize-picking cotton, growing vegetables, working together to sove and eat . All of these and much more should fill our minds in years to come. The senior boys and girls will not be back. Perhaps others also. To these let us soy "Carry on in the Harding Spirit." Never forget what good you have learned and practice the principles of Christianity in every phase of life. To those who wi II be back "Keep a song on your l ips and a prayer in your heart, the Harding way. Don't let us down." NINETEEN HUNDRED FORTY-THREE Volume XIX
ANNUAL PUBLICATION of THE SENIOR CLASS of HARDING COLLEGE Searcy, Arkansas HARDING COLLEGE LIBRARY
Dedication To the one who holds a cherished place in our hearts, who has endeared himself to us by his helpful ways and who has become indispensable by his ability and willingness to aid in any situation, we dedicate this book. Batsel! Baxter has been a friend of Christian Education for many years. He has been President of Abilene Christian, David Lipscomb, and George Pepperdine Colleges. In September 1940, Brother Baxter came to Harding to accept a position as a Bible teacher. Since that time he has by his personal ity caused the student body to honor and love him. His classes are interesting and full of information for the diligent seeker. He puts the deepest meaning into the simplest form, the hardest lesson into availability. His chapel talks, though full of meaning, have been simple and inspiring. To a man who loves the cause of the Lord, who loves the soul of mankind as well as his own we give this honor. . , ~. ; ,

ACTIVITIES
Students floc k in from every direction . Rooms are ass igned, clothes unpacked and the f irst meal in the college dining hall is eaten. Then the fun begins. The freshman wonders what it is all about. Soon he finds out , " Enrollment Begins ." Just before supper he finishes enrolling , wondering whether or not he has already done the work required for a degree. After he enrolls he is expected to attend the classes he signed up for , if he can remember them. Of course, all of the teachers aren't as dead as this one above appears to be. In fact some of them begin loading you up with work the first day . But we paid for an education, so let's get it . Six weeks pass quickly and tes t week comes around. We studied during the term but have to refresh our memory so we spend every spare moment with our noses in a book. Don ' t let this couple fool you . Studying isn ' t carried that for . From the look on her face he is the only one enjoying it .

Rhodes was on the spot cotton -p icking day . . c. W., you should be picking cotton .
Just before Thanksgiving we turned out on a bright day and tidied up the campus. Another example of Harding's cooperativeness. Just imagine three rows of tables from one end of the dining hall to the other, filled with all kinds of edibles. Why imagine? I t is a real ity on Thanksgiving. We came back from Christmas holidays early this year to help the soldier's transportation, but a pleasant surprise awaited us, a New Year's Party.
Six weeks after school started the bays' clubs sent out their invitations to prospective members . When we got them the old members had some fun at our expense . George Tipps gave us an excellent imitation of Harding's No. I man in an amateur show and walked away with first prize. This is how Coy Porter looked on Halloween night in a " Dr . Jekyll and Mr. Hyde" skit. Poor wives, but really they shouldn't have burnt the biscuits. Girls, take warning. t
The glee clubs worked hard and accampPshed much this year. Although they may not have had as good individual voices as they sometimes hove, these groups demon· strated the merit of hard work plus cooperation . These groups which usually blend their voices in song enjoyed delicious waffles when Mr . Kirk and Mrs. Jewell served the combined clubs. A quartet composed of Thednel Garner , Coy Porter, Donald Harrison, and Joe Whittemore was very successful in a dramatization of De s Torte Es Tot, a novelty number arranged by Coy Porter and William Laos . The conflicting influences of the angel and Satan upon the innocent little boy in eating a pie which his mother had cooling in the window sill are given .
In spite of the fact that the war greatly reduced bus trips both in number and in range, the mixed chorus packed plenty of goad hard work into rehearsals this year. A number of new songs were learned and much of its energy was directed in making recordings. On Harding's campus one sees couples which seem to be together just naturally. At every opportunity they are enjoying the beauties of the campus together. Pictured here are some of the couples most frequently seen together.
Victory Gardens Full y reali. i ng the increas ing demand t or greater t oad produc t ion in 1943, Ha rding's faculty joi ns the students in their promotion and culti vat ion of vi ctory gardens. In this effort as in numerous other ways Harding students are making tang ibl e contr ibut ion to our country's wor effort . Strawberry King and Queen Harding is directed with an accent on practical economy, planning , and conse rvati on . A strikinq example at thi s tact is the strawberry picking and conning each spring .

Trio and Chorus The Girls' Trio consisted of Emolene Alexonder, soprano; Era Madge Ellis, second soprano; and Carmen Price, alto . They sang an all programs with the chorus, and were featured in the Men 's Glee Club concerts. In February they sang before the Yaung Men 's Business Club in Little Rack . At the first of the year a sextet was organized but because two of the mem· bers left school they continued with the trio. The largest music organization an the campus is the Mixed Chorus. In the fall they presented a joint program with the Glee Clubs, Sextet, and Quartet . Their first trip was taken to northern Arkansas as far as Piggott. Later a group of choristers went on a three day tour to southern Arkansas as for south as Magnolia. In Januory they took a trip into southeastern Arkansas to Helena. The longest trip was made in March when the group went through parts of Arkansas, Miss:)uri, and Tennessee. The Chorus not only gave many radio programs but sang before soldiers, for two weddings, gave a Twilight Christmas Concert, sang for the negro church, gave a joint U.S. O. program with the orchestra, and made recordings of hymns to be used on church broodcasts. A new program was given this year by the chorus - on inspirational Thanksgiving Devotional Service at 6:30 in the morning. Under the direction of Mr. Leonard Kirk, the Chorus was not only a source of inspiration for the members but for all who heard them.
Leonard Kirk Glee Clubs Mrs. Florence Jewell There must be si nging experiences for s tudent s of all degrees of musical talent. Harding 's musica l department provides these experiences through the medium of the mixed chorus, which invites all students to participate. Further expe ri ence may be received in the glee clubs, trio, classes for those interested in hymn directing, and th e solois t . Perhaps among these groups the girls' glee club could be ca lled the mos t colorful. Under the direction of Mrs . Fl orence J ewell, the girls participated in various programs throughout the school year. Several of the concerts were combined with the men 's glee club and chorus. In April they gave a chapel program and song for social functions. Their outstanding program, and perhaps the mos t beautiful program of the yea r, was the final lyceum given with the orchestra. Mr . Kirk conduc ted the men 's glee club, a group that enjoyed si nging and put their hearts into it. In November they gave a few numbers for the visiting parents and friends. In February they gave a Sunday afternoon program featuring with them the girls' trio.
Voice and Art Beautiful singing is something that everyone loves and demands. The aim of the voice department is a of good tone quality and understandable diction. cultivation Mrs. Florence Jewell has not only instilled this in her pupils' minds and voices, but has put in their hearts a genuine love of good music and interpretation of it. Each month classes were held in which all of the vo ice students participated, each being criticized by the others. Many of the voice closs entertained ot bus iness and professional clubs and were featured soloists with the glee clubs and the chorus. In the late spring a recital was presented to the public. Mi ss Ruth Longford Under the guidance of Miss Ruth Langford the Art Department truly flourished this year . Iris Herndon's portrait of Dr. Hudson for the production of "Magn if icent Obsession" was a work of art. Nelda Justiss was one of Miss Langford's most promising private art students. Wanda Jo Bland did outstanding work in Commercial Art . The Art Department had an exhibit of the student work during the Thanksgiving Lecture period . Their second exhibit was shown May 9-15 .
Mi ss Virg inia Ha ltzendarf Piano and Violin Her enthusiasm and willingness to perform in assembly programs, social functions, and musical clubs has made Miss Virginia Holtzendorf a valuable asset to Harding's music department. Student recitals given at the end of each quarter showed great deal of talent . A chapel program of twa piano and four piano compositions was given by the more accomplished musicians. A new musical organization for piano and violin students was formed this year under the leadership of Miss Holtzendorf . All of the students met bi -monthly to discuss music magazines and analyze different compositions and composers. Mrs. R. A . Word, instructor in violin, has taught violin many years in Searcy . For fifteen years she was director of violin at Galloway college. She has been with Harding five years. A string trio, consisting of Edwin Stoover, violinist; Irl Stalcup, cellist; and Christine Neal, pianist, enterta ined at banquets, teas, and clubs.
Hard ing's poetry cl ub, of eight members, is interested in the appreciation and writing of poetry, and also in oral interpretat ion. Many of these members participated in the speech fes tival thi s year . A contest was held thi s year fo r the best essay written on the Constitu - ti on. It stimulated much interest on the campus and ten entr ies were made. Den nis Allen, Virgil Bentley and Monroe Hawley wrote the bes t essays as judged by Dr. Georg e S. Benson, Pro f. E. M. Hughes , Prof. Batsell Ba xter , and Dean L. C. Sears. These three essays were sent to Dr . Samuel B. Pettengill , who sponsored the contes t and chose the winner, Dennis Allen. A prize of fifty dollars was presented by Dr . Pettengill to the author of the best entry. These papers were also entered as an event in the speech fes t ival . Poetry Club and Constitutional Contest
Forensic League and Orators Bill Smith and Hershel Dyer placed second in the Mid-South Invitation Tournament at Conway in the junior division , and Paul Keller and Monroe Hawley, Mary Bess Love and Joyce Barker received third place honors in their divisions.

Winning top honors in the men and women division respectively, were Winston Allen and Mary Bess Love. Mr. Allen, senior, spoke on "Behold the Man", stressing the truth that it takes men with great inner characters to be great leaders, and that the greatest leader is Christ. Weldon Casey and Joyce Barker, runners-up in the contest spoke on " England 's Hour", and "Awoke Americans."

SPIRITUALITY •
Because the Bible is accepted as the real guide to the development of Christian character/ everyone is required to enroll in one Bible closs. Harding recognizes the possibility of christian youth who go out into the world with the Word of Gad interwoven into the very fiber of their lives. Brother Armstrong loves his work with the freshmen. He and Brother Baxter teach Matthew, Acts, and Hebrews, which all newcomers are required to toke. In these Bible courses the students receive doily a happy blending of teaching ond inspiration from men who hove been in this type of work for as many as forty-five years. Many students take for their junior and senior work classes under Brother Botsell Baxter, who teaches most af the third and fourth year work. This is his third year at Harding, but he is by no means a stranger in the field of Christian education. He has served os president in three of our Christian Colleges. Logical teaching and geniality are blended in his classes. The Missionary Forum meets each Friday night to study evangelistic methods. Same af the teachers or students who have been on foreign fields often speak. From this group have gone a number of foreign missionaries. A chairman is selected each quarter who has charge of the program. This year the chairmen were: Harry Fox, Jack Nadeau, and Dale Larsen.
J. N. ARMSTRONG B. F. RHODES B. BAXTER S. A. BELL J. L. DYKES Brother B. F. Rhodes is also a veteran in Bible work . Brother S. A. Bell has been teaching Old Testament classes for years and is quite adept at it . Brother J . L. Dykes has devoted most of his attention to young preaching students and has been invaluable in this work. Chapel provides each school day wi th a pause for real devotion . Here the students receive ideals that will live after other experiences ot Hard ing are forgotten. Each one is able to do the day's work better after entering wholeheartedly into the song, and quietly engaging in prayer ta Gad . Another of Harding's religious services is the Wednesday night prayer meeting. It is very beneficial in aiding the young preachers and song leaders. Vespers is one of the last activities of the day, one that leaves your mind in a pleasant state. Despite all of the limitations brought by the war, the student preachers hove continued to make their regular apPointments in Arkansas, Tennessee, and Missouri. Some of their experiences might discourage anyone else, but not these determined young men. Many of them find the greatest hospitality, and learn the meaning of Christian generosity in the southern homes they visit . In same cases the congregations would be without leadership except for these young enthusiasts.
OTIS GATEWOOD BARNEY MOREHEAD The Thanksgiving lecture program this year with the theme " Wor!dW ide Evangel ism" was considered by many as one of the best in years. The chief speaker, Brother Otis Gatewood, won the entire studen t body with his sincerity and simplicity. He has been doing a fruitful work 'n Salt Lake City. The church there now sponsors 0 regular radio program with other work . Last summer a number of Christian workers, young preachers and teachers, went to assist him in a great united effort of evangelism James D. Boles and Dale Larsen were Harding representatives in this work . Among the speakers, two others have hod actual experience in miss ionary work . Brother George S. Benson, and Brother Barney Mareheod . Other speakers were : Brother J . N. Armstrong, William Medeari s, E. W . McMillan, Balsel! Baxter, T. B. Thompson, Norvel Young , and J . P Sanders.
