BLUE RIDGE SPIRIT.
This is the thing that keeps the
work of Blue Ridge alive. Since the
idea was conceived of starting a place
where Christian organizations could
gather to talk over problems and
plans for the future, Blue Ridge has
held the spirit of these men who
planned for it.
Blue Ridge spirit would not be what
it is were it not for the surroundings, and before we attempt to talk of
the spirit, we must talk of the surroundings that harmonize with is.
Set back up on the side of a mountain,
and surrounded by trees on every side
of it is Lee Hall, the main building,
built of wood, painted white with a
portico of columns in the old Southern
style.
Back of Lee Hall rises the sheer
side of the mountain, which descends
on each side of it, forming a sort of
natural amphitheatre. As you stand
on the proch of Lee Hall, the Craggy
mountains are visible straight ahead,
with their peaks covered with clouds
a large part of the time. As far as
the eye can see round about there is
nothing but the mountain, and the
first impression that one receives is
that of quiet and dignity inspired by
the mountains.
There is nothing there to disturb
the mind. After leaving the city it is
wonderful just to feel at rest without
noise or disturbances of any kind.
This quiet, this impressive dignity
forms the setting for the Blue Ridge
Spirit.
The next thing to influence one's
mind is the people there. During tho
student conference there are between

fresh from colleges, one would expect
to find the college atmosphere among
them, but not so. These men have
come for a purpose and they are from
and represent the Christian element
in the college.
And so these two things, the people
and the surroundings go to make up
the Blue Ridge Spirit. The surroundings furnishing the dignity and the
quiet and the people the spirit of
brotherhood and Christian peace. After one day in this atmosphere, one
hates to leave. His mind is at rest
with the world and God, and the spirit
of the place carries his thought to
This is what makes
higher things.
