1, if ix fs c ,Al THE SOPHOMCDRES. W F all the classes. in Doane College not one holds a more important place than does the Sophomore. Members are found ill oliices and positions of responsibility and ' trust in every department of the college. We are foremost ill literary work,1'hilo- inathea, the largest and most tlourishing society i11 Doane, claims for its president a Sophomore. For Pi Kappa Delta, one of the secret debating clubs, we furnish the chief executive. .The president of Ilesperia, whojnstconipleteda term of oflice,is one ofour members. The Christian associations have found among us earnest a11d willing workers. Both Y. M. C. A. and Y. NV. C. A. have chosen their presidents for tl1e ensuing year from among the Sophomores. The Athletic Board of Control, composed of two representatives of the fac- ulty and two of the student body, has for one of its stu- Lf .e 'P '1, dent rellresentiatives a, Sophomore. The faculty, as well as the students, have looked to ns for helpers. The position of assistant treasurer, con- ferred npon one of our boys while he was yet a Fresh- man, has been given him again in his Sophomore year, and where could one more faithful be found than our class president, who has served the college as bell ringer for two years? Besides those who are rendering special services to Doane We have a number of persons who are contribut- ing to her fame. Unr debaters have many times wo11 laurels for her, and one of these dehate1's, to the writer's knowledge, has never bee11 defeated. Our Dutch pianist and French soloist are especially noted. In athletics we have taken high rank, and lll'0 well represented upon both football and baseball teams. Then, too, as all have noticed, there are those in our class who are inclined to specialize in particular profes- sions. One of these, a. would-be geometrieian, is devot- ing his attention to the discovery of new and possible relations of the Cone. He is making rapid progress, hav- i11g already surpassed a certain Junior, who has for two years given his attention to a very similar subject. Fur- thermore, one of our mnnber has already entered the eonnnbial state, and we have Moore ready to enter. NVhile it is true that we are, in the main. a serious- minded class. it is also true that we are sociable, and that we have done much to to promote good feeling among our fellow students. Surely no one will doubt this claim, who knows how royally we entertained the Freshmen only two weeks after their arrival at Doane. Ont of the genuine goodness of our hearts we permitted their Hag to float over Merrill hall for one whole day. No Person molested it. 11ot even our Medlar. This altru- istic spirit on our part has especially endeared ns to the hearts of both students and faculty.
