When the great apostle of nations, Paul, finished his work, he said the following words: “I have fought a good fight. I have finished my course. I have kept the faith henceforth, there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me on that day.”
The same words today can be repeated by one of the McPherson College faculty members, who after a forty-year fight gives his keys to the new generation with the prayer that they keep the education doors open until the last of their life as he did.
The McPherson College family feels a great sorrow, because it is losing a member who has been with the school about forty years. Each member will keep in his mind the work which Dr. Maurice Hess offered to McPherson College.
Dr. Hess endeavored from the day which he became a member of the college to do the best job with the purpose that the students take not only the education in English, but side by side with another education which is more important, the Christian education.
For one more week Dr. Hess will be a member of the college family. After that he will move to Missouri where he will pass the remainder of his life. But his name will always be first in the memory of all who were members of the family.
The College-Church Spring Fellowship will be held at 5:30 p.m., May 19, at Lakeside Park. This Spring Fellowship is an annual event held in recognition of the college students.
A picnic supper will be served after which Dr. Raymond Flory will give the greetings of the church to the students.
Dr. James Berkebile will be the guest speaker at the Church of the Brethren Sunday morning. The yearly Conference Offering will be received during the morning worship service.
Rev. Harry K. Zeller announced that, if the weather permits, the ground-breaking ceremony will follow the morning service. This service had previously been planned for last Sunday but was cancelled because of rain.
I would like to express my thanks to Dr. Maurice Hess, who was the person who contributed to my learning the English language. Perhaps my English is still not perfect, but with the good basic foundation which I have been given, I am sure that very soon I shall be able to speak as well as the Americans do.

Thanks For The Help
As another semester ends, another Spectator editor retires. The Spectator tries to give the student body and faculty a paper which will be informative as well as a method for bringing out student ideas and opinions.
But no paper would have been possible without the assistance of the whole student body. Many thanks to all of you, and particularly the reporters and writers who have given their support to the Spec.
Next fall Carl Harris will be the editor-in-chief, and I know that the same cooperation of this year will be continued. Thank you again.

Pondering With The President . . .
Commencement Lies Ahead
I am glad that the college year always ends with a commencement.
Even after college is all completed there arc still other commencements during a lifetime.
Life has in it many new horizons. Life is filled with a fresh new day 365 times a year, and a fresh new year for three score and ten years, or more.
For long ages we have heard the phrase, the “good old days.” The assumption by many is that these days and the days ahead will not be so good.
We in America know better. The “good old days" never were so good as they are remembered.
A better motto is that “the best is yet to be.”
Those of you who are graduating have had what we hope will be remembered by you as good years at McPherson College.
Here you have furthered your knowledge.
Here you have made new friends.
Here some of you have begun your homes.
Here you have settled upon your majors and your careers.
Here you have tested your ability along with the abilities of others and have gained confid-ence in yourselves.
You will soon cross the platform and receive your diploma. You will merit it.
But the best is yet to be. Life
is at its dawning as far as your real joys are concerned.
Ahead of you lies the joys of home building.
Ahead of you lies the joys of Christian service.
Ahead of you lies a greater sense of belonging to your community, your church, and your world.
May God bless you at this commencement and may you have, in the emerging future, many more great horizons, great commencements.

Carl Harris
Friendly, capable, respected are only a few of the qualities of next year's editor, Carl Harris. Carl is well-known to the student body as he has participated in many activities the past two years at Macollege.
As with his other duties, Carl suitably qualifies to be editor-in-chief. He was editor of his high school paper in Jennings, La., and has been working on the Spec the last two years.
This semester Carl has been managing editor which has enabled him to have practical experience for the editorship.
Carl has begun to make plans for a well-organized paper to serve the student body next year.
In addition to journalism, Carl has been in dramatics and serving as Players' Club president. Carl has also been a debater and joined Pi Kappa Delta this spring.
Carl will also be treasurer of the student body for the following year.
