®tl|n Bltuij r IC. i. Jkntb rrg Manchester College is but the lengthened shadow of President ' inger, for it is he who has built it to the place where it can now stand alone. He is dignified so as to command respect, but Iriendly enough to be loved by all. Though he is a busy man, he greets us with a pleasant smile and is willing to make our problems his own. The most worth- while tribute we can pay to him is to simply say, We love him, and by our actions prove it! Beginning at a time when Manchester Colleg e was a myth, salaries a liability, and endowment a nightmare, L. D. F.ikenberry has through his financial wisdom made Manchester College a reality, salaries a pos- sibility, and endowment a certainty. Small of stature and retiring in nature he commands the respect of every student because of his financial ability and his work as an all-round handy man. Fie is the N ' ice-President the financial wizard, and the general over-seer of Manchester ' s campus. Page Srvcninn

pf H .41 V y K l ; Inarti nf ®r«Bt B Very austere is this Board of Trustees. It is they who share much of the responsibility that keeps Manchester growing and progressing. Many of them have for a great number of years borne along with our college its joys and its sorrows, its victories and its defeats, its problems and its responsibilities, while others are just learning how to bear these. Directing, guiding, planning, this group strives to raise Manchester to a standard where she will have the highest type of student activity, teacher activity, and college loyalty. Those who are ably striving for this goal are: G. A. Snider, North Manchester, Indiana; G. S. Strausbaugh, Middlebranch, Ohio; Levi Minnich, Greenville, Ohio; Chas. Forror, Brethren, Michigan; T. R. Shively, Peru, Indiana; Milo Geyer, Milford, Indiana; F. E. McCune, Kitchel, Indiana; O. W. Stine, (Alumni) Goshen, In- diana; Otho Winger, College (Ex-Officio) ; Edward Shepfer, Sugar Creek, Ohio; I. W.

Carl W. Holl Dt ' irii Liberal y rts College A college becomes known not by its catalogs, its buildings, or its endowments, but by the net worth of its graduates. The quality of its finished product de- termines its growth or decay. If we can send out young men and women who are trained to think steadily and clearly on the issues facing them, who have adequate information about the complicated civilization into which they are sent and who will undertake the tasks before them with a spirit of reverence, honesty and humility, the future of the institution is secure. The road to leader- ship is the same as it was two thousand years ago. He who would be the great- est among you let him be servant of all. Carl W. Holl, Dean Liberal Arts College I e¥!S¥5 The Spartans glorified physical excel- lence, establishing training institutions A for their sons, maintaining and fostering the same ideals for their daughters in their homes to the end that they might become mothers of sturdy and patriotic sons. The Athenians glorified intellectual excellence. They delighted in mental alertness and in the enjoyment of keen spiritual values. Their educational ideals made for living happily and beau- tifully. Democratic Manchester youth find their highest satisfactions in a blending of Spartan, Athenian, and Christian ideals, --a sound mind in a strong body in quest of the Christian way of life. J. G.
