“Dad” Elliott Speaks
In a series of open-meetings and
chapel addresses Mr. A. J. Elliott,
last week biought home to a large
number of students the elements in
character and the principles of
religion which should form the
foundation of every college man’s
life. “Dad”, who is an old college
athlete himself with thorough
knowledge of the difficulties and
temptations of students, presented
in a simple manner the way of real
success in life. “The trouble”, he
said, “with the college man is not
in knowing what to do, but in fail
ing to do that which he knows
should be done”. Mr. Elliott’s
enthusiasm for his work, the story
of his own life and the power which
Christianity has brought into it,
together with that strong, fighting
spirit which so characterizes his
personality, have made deep and
lasting impression in the hearts of
many men here.
