Ex-Libris IONA E. BROLLIER Editor RUSSELL J. KLINGER Business Manager MARION “Scholastic symbol of creative might, Of leading youth from darkness into light 1936 “You’ll find where e’er you roam That marble floors and gilded walls Can never make a home. But every house where love abides And Friendship is a guest Is surely home, and home sweet home For there the heart can rest.” DEDICATION TO THE THREE SENIOR MEN OF MARION COLLEGE, WHO HAVE ACHIEVED SINGULAR DISTINCTION THROUGH THEIR LONG YEARS OF SERVICE AND DEVOTION TO THE SCHOOL, AND WHO HAVE CONTRIBUT¬ ED MUCH IN TIME, ENERGY, AND MONEY FOR THE BEAUTIFYING OF THE CAMPUS, THE STAFF DEDICATES THIS VOLUME OF THE MARIONETTE. jP; 0.-0 jpl : . W 1 ' h “When huds of Spring begin to blow In blossoms that we used to know And lure us back along the loays Of time’s all-golden yesterdays!” 3 F. ‘And what is so rare as a day in June Then, if ever, come perfect days; Then Heaven tries earth if it be in tune. And over it softly her warm ear lays.’ “Happy the man, of mortals happiest he, Whose quiet mind from vain desires free; Whom neither hopes deceive, nor fears torment. But lives at peace, within himself content” Page 10 ] 1 “My heart is awed within me when I think Of the great miracle that still goes on In silence round me—the perpetual work Of the creation, finished, yet renewed forever.” “I love thee when thy swelling buds appear, And one by one their tender leaves unfold, As if they knew that warmer scenes were near. Nor longer sought to hide from winter’s cold; And when with darker growth thy leaves are seen To veil from view the early robin’s nest, 1 love to lie beneath thy waving screen. With limbs by summer’s heat and toil oppressed; And when the autumn winds have stripped thee bare. And round theee lies the smooth, untrodden snow. When naught is thine that made th ee once so fair, I love to watch thy shadowy form below. And through thy leafless arms to look above On stars that brighter beam when most we need their love.” I’age 13 ‘ ' A thing of beauty is a joy forever; Its loveliness increases; it will never Pass into nothingness; hut still will keep A bower quiet for us, and a sleep Full of sweet dreams, and health, and quiet breathing. Therefore, on every morrow, are we wreathing A flowery hand to hind us to the earth. Spite of despondence, of the inhuman dearth Of noble natures, of the gloomy days. Of all the unhealthy and o er-dark-ened ways Made for our searching: yes, in spite of all. Some shape of beauty moves away the pall From our dark spirits . . . Paths there were many. Winding through palmy fern, and rushes fenny. And ivy banks; all leading pleasantly To a wide lawn, whence one could only see Stems thronging all around between the swell Of turf and slanting branches: who could tell The freshness of the space of heaven above. Edg’d round with dark tree tops? through which a dove Would often beat its wings, and often too A little cloud would move across the blue.” [ Page 15 AS TIME PASSES, EVEN THE MOST VIVID EXPERIENCES GRADUALLY FADE AND BECOME OBSCURE RECOL¬ LECTIONS OF THE PAST. LEST THIS SHOULD HAPPEN TO THE MEMORIES OF THE SCHOOL YEAR OF 1935-36 THE STAFF WISHES TO KEEP ALIVE FOR YOU THROUGH A “PICTURE-BOOK” THE THOUGHTS OF HAPPY HOURS SPENT ON THE CAMPUS OF MARION COLLEGE. Page 16 ] the COLLEGE The beauty of the campus is a result of the cooper¬ ation of both faculty and students since the college was founded. Professor A. Jones during his life time devoted much effort in making the campus more attrac¬ tive and in his passing, the “mantle’’ has fallen on Professor Kershner, who has stimulated interest in Arbor Day ob¬ servance. On April 18, 1935 with “Sieb” as chairman, the routine of school work was laid aside and the student body was organized into groups under the leadership of the professors. Among those cooperating in this project were the classes and state clubs which planted trees and provided plants and moss for the rock garden. Dr. J. A. Huffman presented the theological department with evergreens, while Mr. Williams gave some beautiful spruce trees i ' or the east side of the campus and several trees for the rock garden. The bird sanctuary was greatly improved by the addition of shrubs and maple trees. Another important feature of the day was the hamburger stand which un¬ der the supervision of Miss Snyder proved a life-saver to the half-famished workers. The success of the day with its fun, frolic, and work merits its ob¬ servance until it too becomes a Marion College tradition. “What do we plant when we plant the tree? A thousand things that we daily see.” Page 18 ] ‘‘How oft have I loitered o’er thy green Where humble happiness endeared each scene.” I Page 19 WILLIAM F. McCONN, M.A., B.O. President of Marion College Four Years of Service Marion College is passing another milestone of life with the closing of her six¬ teenth year. Throughout recent years we have battled against financial hazards which have shaken the economic structure of our country to its very foundation yet Marion College has been privileged under Divine Guidance to carry on and enlarge her ministry in the field of Christian education. Marion College and the principles for which she stands live in the world today as a challenge to the forces of Agnosticism, Atheism, Communism and all other political or secular creeds which attempt to deny the individual his right to a vital, living, religious faith. Marion College has been privileged this year to enroll one of the finest groups of young people to be fo und on any college campus. The President desires to ex¬ press through this medium to them, to the families they represent, and to the friends of the college at large, his appreciation for the fine spirit of loyalty and cooperation which the student body has shown this year. We are now engaging in a student campaign for the summer with the goal set for a twenty per cent increase next September, and we are counting on a continuation of this spirit through our state clubs. In the four years that the writer has served Marion College he has never appealed to the student body to support a project which the college deemed to be worthwhile and failed to receive their support. He does not believe we shall fail in the attempt to see an increased number of young people gathering on the campus when school opens next September. Will you help bring or send one more? Wm. F. McConn, President Page 20 ] JOHN D. WILLIAMS Treasurer Fifteen Years of Service Men do not find enduring satisfaction in life by owning something. It is only by becoming something, that life is at its best. The experiments of the last few years have been for many men, an adventure through which they have discovered their real wealth. With the loss of income they are discovering the strong sustain¬ ing power of a strong religious faith; and those abiding virtues such as courage, honor, charity. The deepest ' satisfactions of life—those which come from sharing and serving—remain secure. To our young people who are graduating from College this year, you will enter the paths of a most interesting age, but our faith in the goodness of the world still remains. The prayers our mothers taught us and the faith in God instilled in us by devout fathers remain as priceless treasures. Let us hold to that pilgrim faith keeping our poise, preserving our past as far as it has worth, facing our future in the spirit of loyalty to the man of Galilee. John D.

Thompson won over A. Koldyke, and in the men’s R. Jones won over W. Newton. Much interest was manifested in the soft-ball games. Of particular notice were the Buckeye victories over the Hoo- siers, and the tie between the Eurekans and the Amphictyons, which could not be played off because of unfavorable weather conditions. Thus, tennis and soft-ball were brought to an abrupt close, and basketball, the major athletic activity of the winter season, was begun. The members of the All-School Teams, pictured in the triangle, were selected by a faculty committee. The women thus honored were Thompson, Visher, Vorhies, Koldyke, E. Smith, and Eite, while the men ranking highest were Koch, Tennell, Taylor, Baker, and Jones. Spring weather brought renewed interest in tennis, track, and an additional feature, touch-football. The awarding of trophies and school letters closed another successful and wholesome athletic program. “One purpose, one harmonious spirit reigns, To lain for life all joy and common good.” r Page 42 J “Thou noble edifice, re-echoing with sound of gymnast’s feet. Within thy walls do we through lure of pleasure oft retreat.” [ Page 43 ff Pr . l(cpshne.p Qoti htiy Good.ma. ' n.

It is the purpose of the yearbook to record in permanent form that which will revive pleasant memories, Icng after the year nineteen-hundred thirty-six has become history. Incorporated in the administration section, as an additional feature this year, are personal messages from the President and Treasurer. These show the relationship that exists between the administration and the student body. The attempt has been made not only to tell the story of this school year, so it may live again in the minds of the students, but also to inspire others wi h the spirit of Marion College. The staff appreciates having had the privilege of publishing the Marionette, and takes this opportunity to acknowledge the cooperation of the faculty and stu¬ dent body as a whole in helping to make this yearbook possible. Special recognition is given to both the Amphictyon and Eureka Literary Societies for their enthusiastic participation in the sales contest which gave the Marionette the widest circulation in its history.

In order to view correctly the AMPHICTYON LITERARY SOCIETY one must be acquainted with the meaning of its name. The word Amphictyon vms originally the Greek word for neighbor. The name itself, then, explains the friendly co¬ operation expected of and received from every member of the society. In the first open program the Amphictyons stressed the im¬ portance of promoting and maintaining the high intellectual, spiritual, social, and literary standards of Marion College. In the gymnasium on October 15, a party was given for the new members, who were introduced to the Amphictyon traditions. The societies were well matched in the annual Marionette sales contest for the Eurekans won by only a narrow margin. The Amphictyons also recognize the importance of athletics in the develop¬ ment of well-rounded personalities. The men’s basket-ball team won in the tourna¬ ment, while the women are to be congratulated for their effort and splendid sportsmanship. The arch at the point of the Triangle, which was razed when the state road was widened, was rebuilt during the spring term. Thus, it is with satisfaction that the Amphictyons view the achievements of the past year and are looking into the future with confidence for the advancement of the society.

THE EUREKA LITERARY CLUB throughout another school year has maintained her watchword of friendliness, her spirit of cooperation, and her standard of high literary achievement. Individuals responsible for inspiring and directing the Club’s activities were: president and secretary for fall term, Ronald Jones and Iona Brollier; winter term, L. H. Mayfield and Dorothy Barnett; spring term, Virginia Visher and Evelyn Sowers. For the actual planning and carrying out of the programs recogni¬ tion is due those members who served on its program, pub¬ licity, and decorating committees. For the first time in several years the Eurekans have out-numbered her fellow Amphictyons. After October 15, those students vitally interested in the principles for which the Eureka Literary Society stands, were received into full membership and charged with the duty of reflecting her admirable qualities. The spirit of cooperation brought victory to the Club in the Marionette Sales Contest. The shield was awarded to the Eurekans for the second consecutive year. Seldom do organizations or individuals reach the goal which they have set for themselves, but in the striving toward this goal they find success. So high has the standard of literary attainment been set by the members of the Eureka Literary Club that each year its senior members have quitted it with a feeling of failure and urged the members assuming duties for the new year to strive even more earnestly toward the worthwhile objectives. However, if one measures a literary society by its activities which are purely literary, the Eureka society will be found to rank high. f Page 47 THE STUDENT CONFERENCE The religious activities of Marion College are under the supervision of the Student Conference, an organization made up of those who are interested in the spiritual advancement and maintenance of holiness standards throughout the insti¬ tution. For 1935-36 Virgil Snyder was elected president, Gerald Clapsaddle, vice presi¬ dent, and Ralph Coleson, secretary. Those elected as evangelists were Olive Kind- ley, Maxine Scott, and Charles Ball. These students have charge of the services conducted in different institutions located in the city of Marion, namely, the Children’s Home, the Delta Electric Factory, the County Jail, and the Emily Flinn Home for elderly women. Each Tuesday evening the students and faculty gather in the auditorium for a prayer service. These meetings are times of inspiration and blessing to all. Here the Lord is worshipped in music, testimony, and the reading of His Word. From these meetings radiate the spiritual power of the College. Y. M. W. B. The Senior Y. M. W. B. is the organization of the college which assum., . the responsibility of stimulating and maintaining a vital interest in mis.sionary work. The first Sunday of the month the band meets to acquaint the students with the needs of the mission field. Once a week the noon prayer service is given over to the interest of missions. The Annual Missionary Convention proved to be a time of spiritual awakening. Rev. and Mrs. P. D. Doty, returned missionaries from India, were the speakers and they brought inspirational messages emphasizing the great need of prayer. Pledges were again taken for the support of Rev. Frank Birch who is in Sierra Leone, West Africa. Page 48 ] MARION COLLEGE COMMUNITY CHORUS Professor Herman Baker. Director SOLOISTS Ruby Whitecotton. Soprano Ray Norman. Tenor Maurice Beery.

Organ Int Marion College Community Chorus is an organization that has become recognizf in this vicinity for the splendid rendition of Christmas and Easter num¬ bers. Ir iddition to creating interest in standard choral works this group has served bring the college closer to the people of the city of Marion. r ,,ing the Christmas season the cantata, “The Christmas Dawn” by Charles Gill. rt Spross was presented at the United States Veteran Hospital, the College Chapel, Jonesboro Methodist church, and the First M. E. Church of Marion, Indiana. The presentation of the Lenten number, “Olivet to Calvary” by J. H. Maunder made one to realize anew those last scenes of the Passion Week. On May 14, the Chorus appeared at the United States Veteran Hospital to participate in the observance of Veteran Hospital Day. The numbers rendered were “To Thee Oh Country” by Eicheberg and “My Faith Looks Up to Thee” by Schnecker. [ Page 49 ORCHESTRA Fitzpatrick, G. Helm, Everest, Koldyke, Newton, Banker, Koch, V.

THE CURRENT HISTORY CLUB in order to promote greater interest in present-day research in the fields of history and economics continued the program of activity as was be¬ gun by the organization last year. The club under the leader¬ ship of Marcel J. Lewis, and in cooperation with Professor Allen Bowman, faculty sponsor, secured well-known speakers to address the group throughout the year. THE SCIENCE CLUB has had for its major interests radio¬ activity, cosmic rays, and quanta, as well as, other real and theoretical developments in the field of science. Students of mathematics, physics, zoology, and botany present the new de¬ velopments in their departments. Outstanding leaders in these fields are invited to appear before the group to keep the mem¬ bers in direct contact with the progress of modern science. [ Page 51 j Top Row —Lawrence, V.

The enroll¬ ment exceeds that of any state group except the one in which the College is located. The Buckeyes have participated in all phases of college activity and are outstanding in the field of athletics, the men being the champions in basketball and baseball. THE HOOSIER CLUB, in its second year of organization, has the largest membership of any of the state clubs. With more than eighty members, its influence in promoting the interests of Marion College in Indiana and in aiding to maintain the high standards of the school is quite evident. The club has been active in many phases of college activity. Page 54 TOP ROW—Newton, Argo, Mayfield, Golightly. BOTTOM ROW—Harrington, Lawrence, Prof. Vess, Martin.

THE DIXIE CLUB, “Southern Colonels,” which is composed of students from states south of the Mason-Dixon line, helps to maintain the promotion of interest in Marion College and to increase the enrollment of students from the sunny south¬ land. Activities sponsored by the club included parties, lunch¬ eons, dinners, and the participation in tennis and basket-ball. THE WOLVERINE CLUB has for its two-fold purpose the promotion of the interests of Mar ion College in Michigan and the maintenance of Christian standards on the campus. Al¬ though small in numbers the group is united in loyalty to the native state. During its two years of organization the members have participated in numerous school activities and have plans for its future in Marion College.

Prizes were offered for both the writing of the words and the music for such a song. It is with regret that because of the lateness of the date the music cannot appear in this book but the staff is happy to publish the words and to announce the winners in both contests. For the writing of the music, both first and second places were awarded to Miss Dorothy West. The words were written by Keith L. Smith, first place and Russell Frey, second.

May I my little light show forth To East and West, to South and North That others groping in the night May And by my dim feeble light The path in penitence to tread To Thee, O Christ, the living Head The Sun of Righteousness and Love To light from Thy bright Torch above Their candles small; which held aloft Will guide still others times and oft Till ever widening arcs of light Shall compass all the earth with light. May our dear school, to each so dear E’er hold aloft His light so clear. That all who come within her ray May turn to Christ, the truth, the way. And as we kindle candles right. From this great Torch, the Master light. May we resolve that the fair name Of Marion College we’ll not stain But consecrated. Lord, for Thee And Alma Mater, dear, that we Will bear to all the world around The light and love that here we’ve found. Afar and near, until that time When in that better, sunnier clime We’ll gather round that throne on high In that fair country, bye and bye And lay our candles at Christ’s feet As in our rapture, we repeat In this fair country there is no night For Thou art its eternal light. {Read hy Professor C.

Who’s playing that squeaky violin, and there goes that weird “Moon Over Miami” to grate on my ears for the third time tonight. What’s banging on the door? Oh, well—come in. What! Ice cream!! Yes, come right in. Well!!! This is the third time I’ve gone through the dummy and I can’t find any place where this copy fits. Umm, these cookies I brought from the dining hall really taste good at this time of night. Only seven o’clock; we should get quite a bit of copy done this evening. What’s this? A group of students discussing a recent occurrence on the campus. S’long, Marionette work. I’ll see you later. Fifty words more and I’ll have this article done. Oooo, there’s a mouse in the waste-basket. Quick! Quick! A chair! A chair! Here comes Professor Young who will tell us to quit vyork and go to bed— then he’ll sit down and philosophize for an hour. PURPOSE Not for the sake of gold, Not for the sake of fame, Not for the prize would I hold Any ambition or aim. I would be brave and be true. Just for the good I can do. I would be useful on earth. Serving some purpose or cause. Doing some labor of worth. Giving no tho ught of applause. Thinking less of the gold or the fame Than the joy and the thrill of the game. Medals their brightness may lose. Fame be forgotten or fade. Any reward we may choose Leaves the account still unpaid But the real happiness lies In fighting alone for a prize. Give me the thrill of the task. The joy of the battle and strife. Of being of use and I will ask No greater reward from this life. Better than fame or applause Is striving to further a cause. Edg. r a. Guest. Page 68 ] f. r- PURPOSE To further the advancement of South Marion and its institutions, among which Marion College is one of the most important, were we organized.
