Foreword<br />
If in glancing through our book, you recall to mind<br />
some of the events of the school year fits associa<br />
tions and activities, if you ore made to feel anew<br />
something of the spirit of <strong>Harding</strong> the spirit of<br />
sacri fice and se rvice. . we, the staff of the 1938<br />
Petit Jean, truly feel that our effort<br />
has been worth while.
The m e<br />
Our church colleges of today have but one funda<br />
mental purpose for existing as such . .. to maintain<br />
and further develop the ideals<br />
of Christianity.<br />
With this thought in mind we have chosen in our<br />
theme to acquaint you with a few of the leaders in<br />
lhe Christian college movement in the hope that<br />
their lives of service will prompt all to a greater<br />
sense of appreciation for the movement<br />
and perhaps aid in it.<br />

devotion to God reproclaimed the New Testament<br />

died for it, the pioneers of the reformation move<br />
ment in America, we, the Senior Closs of 1938,<br />
do humbly and respectfully dedicate<br />
this annual .

Historical Sketch of <strong>Harding</strong> College<br />
<strong>Harding</strong> College as the flowering out of the spi rit and dream of its great founder,<br />
James A. <strong>Harding</strong>, hod the foundation laid for its beginning when the nucleus of its present<br />
faculty come together many years ago in the Potter Bible College, Bowling Green, Kentucky.<br />
James A. <strong>Harding</strong> become the first president of this Institution and here he hod associoted<br />
with him his daughter Woodson <strong>Harding</strong>, and her husband, J. N. Armstrong, and the loyol<br />
co-workers through the following yeors, B. F. Rhodes, S. A. Bell, and R. N. Gordner, all of<br />
whom ore with the present institution.<br />
This group of loyal fri ends, however, in 1905 moved their work farther west to Odessa,<br />
Missouri, and established there the Western Bible and Literary College with J. N. Armstrong<br />
as its first president. Students of this institution are counted among the alumni of <strong>Harding</strong><br />
College and many of the children of these students are now enrolled in the present institution.<br />
Because of ill health President Armstrong resigned after two years and went West, but<br />
In 1908 accepted the presidency of Cordell Christian College, Cordell, Oklahoma. The next<br />
year o the rs of the old faculty joined him until practically the entire group were together again<br />
wi th others added.<br />
Until this time no emphasis hod been given to sc:unng affiliation with the universities<br />
or accrediting agencies, but during the ten years in which the school operated a t Cordell it<br />
secured recognition for three years of college work and was the first Christian college to<br />
receive better than junior standing.<br />
DUring the dark days of the war In 1918, it was decided to close the institution tem<br />
porarily but almost immediately an invitation was received to combine the work with the<br />
recently established Harper College at Harper, Kansas. This was done, and the work was<br />
carried on at Harper until 1924, when the institution was consolidated with Arkansas Christian<br />
College of Morrilton, Arkansas. In this consolidation the nome was changed, in honor of the<br />
original founder, to <strong>Harding</strong> College.<br />
Through these years the institution has been corned on in inadequate buildings, but<br />
even under these handicaps It hod grown in prestige and hod secured recognition as a standard<br />
senior college. In 1938 come the opportunity to secure an entire college plant with adequate<br />
buildings and excellent equipment located at Searcy, Arkansas, and the Boord of Trustees<br />
Immediately moved the institution to its present location.<br />
While <strong>Harding</strong> College has hod a varied history since ItS beginnings, with each change<br />
It has grown 10 power and influence, until it now possesses a college plant of which It can be<br />
i'-ls tly proud, and which for the first t ime gives It permanence.

SENIOR MESSAGE<br />
As the graduating class of 1938, we feel a four-fold obligation or sense<br />
of gratitude for those who have helped us in whatever we may have accom<br />
plished while here at <strong>Harding</strong> or hope to accomplish in the future as a result<br />
of our stay here.<br />
First of all, we are grateful to our parents who made it possible for us<br />
to attend college. It was only through their foresight and willingness to<br />
sacrifice that we were able to attend <strong>Harding</strong> at all.<br />
Secondly, we are grateful to the faculty and administration for their<br />
guiding and ever-helpful spirit in setting forth to us those high ideals that<br />
ore characteristic of the school.<br />
Third, we are appreciative of <strong>Harding</strong>'s alumni and other friends who<br />
by their support and encouragement throughout the years, have indeed kept<br />
the school alive and on an ever upward trend .<br />
And last of all we are appreciative of the undergraduate students of<br />
<strong>Harding</strong> with whom we have been associated during the past year. We hope<br />
that they have enjoyed this acquaintance as much as we hove. I t is our<br />
sincere desire that they may continue their schooling at <strong>Harding</strong> and<br />
eventually fit themselves in life for that place wherein they may most effect<br />
ively serve their fellowman.<br />

CEDAR FALLS-PETIT JEAN<br />
Legend of Petit Jean<br />
One o f the legends about Petit Jean Mountoin is to the effect thot the valiont French<br />
explorer Cheves was lured by s tones 10 the unexplored country of Americo. Though deeply in<br />
love with his fiancee, Adrienne, wavering ' twixt love and desire fOr adventure, he de termined<br />
at lost to soil to the distant lond. When Adrienne heard of hi s decision. she made up her<br />
mind, unknown to her lover, thot she would also go to the new land. Disguised as a cobin boy,<br />
she secured passage under the name of Jean on the some ship on which Cheves soiled.<br />
Because of her small stature, the sailors called her " Petit Jean,"<br />
Reaching the mouth of the MississiPPI, they soiled up that rrver to the Arkansas, and<br />
landed at the foot of a mountain, where they found the Indians friendly, the country beautiful,<br />
and the climate delightful. It was so much like fairyland that Cheves ordered his crew to go<br />
no farther, and a settlement was thus made in what is naw Arkansas. The Indians adored<br />
Pet.t Jean, and regarded her as a being from another world. They brought her offerings of<br />
frUits and fl owers, and strove in every way to express their love. Stdl ignorant of her ident.ty,<br />
Cheves announced ane day that he proposed to return to France, to bring his f.ancee to the<br />
new land Petit Jean fell seriously ill, and the news of h.s departure mode her worse. Fearing<br />
that she would not recover, she called Cheves to her side and disclosed her ident.ty. His gr,ef<br />
and woe were indescribable. Broken-hearted, he nursed her, but she expired in hIS arms, and,<br />
In accordance with his request, was bUlled in a beautiful spot on top of the mountain which<br />
was given her nome.<br />
The Indians used to soy that her spirit guarded the grove. They sow her among the tree<br />
tops swaying In the breeze; they saw her rowing on the river in her canoe; they sow her<br />
wondering gaily In the forest, and ever shedding a blessi ng over the mountain called Petit Jean.
A. G. FREED<br />
Freed was outstanding as a debater and as a<br />
Christian educator and gentleman. He and N. B.<br />
Ha rdemann, a former pupil, founded the college<br />
that now bears -th eir names and Freed was its first<br />
president. He was one of the best school men the<br />
church has ever had in modern times. Courtesy,<br />
kindness, and cleanliness were his three<br />
outstanding characteristics.<br />

new material fo r the Va rsity section several times during the season. Besides this, it promoted<br />
interest a nd ent husiasm in basketball for a greater number of st udents and offered an oppor<br />
