THE REDBIRD
Page 3
THtr

By Marvin Jones
Ed. Note: This is first in a
series of articles devoted
to the religious life on our
campus,and is result of the
fine work done by the
writer in reporting REW.
The Episcopal Church at
Lamar Tech is represen-
ted by the Canterbury As-
sociation and the congre-
gation of St. Matthew's
Church, which is located
at 796 East Virginia, ac-
ross from Combs Hall and
next to West Hall.
The Canterbury Associa -
tion is the name given Ep-
iscopal work on campuses
all over the United States.
The Church's major con-
cern is that working
through Canterbury it may
offer the Christian faith in
a sensible and rational way
to the college student. It
would show mat this faith,
rather than being another
"department in the curri-
culum," is truly the arena
in which the battle of life
and of learning is fought
out and won.
Historically, the Chris-
tian Church is the founder
of the university system of
education .It still earnestly
believes in the university
and the college as its
smaller counterpart. But
it strives to overcome the
kind of specialization in
modern education which
has led to a breakdown in
comm unication between
the very divisions of know-
ledge which compose the
whole. In the sense of
"healing" these breaches,
does the Christian faith of-
fer a mortar which can
bind the bricks of learning
into a unified concept of the
whole man.
La line with their feeling
Canterbury welcomes any
student desiring counsel-
ing, study help and just
plain fun. P r i m a r i ly, it
functions as a service to
students in any category it
may be of help.
Every Wednesday at 7 a.
m. there is a service of
Holy Comm uni on at the
chapel, followed by a free
breakfast served by the
Epi sc opal faculty. The
regular Sunday services
are at 7:30,9:30 and 11 a.
m. and are open to all on
the campus.
The Canterbury Associa-
tion meets each Sunday
evening at 7 and provides
varied entertainment from
theological"bull sessions"
to a dixieland combo for
dancing. The Rev. Lane
Denson is director of the
work and chaplain to stu-
dents .
The Rev. Mr.Denson also
offers a course in Bible
Literature each semester,
which counts three hours
credit. A library for Bible
courses and for general
student use is available.
The Canterbury Associa -
tion will sponsor this
spring a seminar on mar-
riage which will feature
the relational aspects of
marriage with the Church,
the law and society in gen-
eral, as well as topics on
courtship and health.
J. Paul Sheedy* Had A Hangdog Look Till
Wildroot Cream-Oil Gave Him Confidence
Poor old mangy Sheedy was hounded by a lack of confidence! Every girl
he talked to told him he was barking up the wrong tree. "Fido’nt get a
date pretty soon,” he howled, *Tm gonna flea the campus and go home
to mutter.” Then he got wise to Wildroot Cream-Oil.
Now he has confidence in any situation because
he nose his hair looks healthy and handsome, the way
Nature intended . . . neat but not greasy. Contains the
heart of Lanolin, the very best part of Nature’s finest hair El U^SjSUlV/
and scalp conditioner. Get yourself a bottle or tube of
Wildroot Cream-Oil, America’s biggest selling hair tonic.
It gives you the confidence you need to be a gay dog.
