Class Poem, 1916 The marble block lay deathly cold and still; The sculptor gazed, his restless pacings no relief could find. No thrill Seemed destined to awake the inert senses of the mind, Or frame the spirit image in his soul. For days, the troublous thought no fit expression gave; The whited rock remained but lifeless mailer to his eyes. No wave Of bright illumined vision dared to rise On barren beaches of his inner life. But now o ' er idle chisel, fallen mace, A fairy form threads out the darkened paths of weary sleep, ils face All lighted up with love ' s own virtuous beams, a vision sweet Enough to snap the threads of tossing dreams. A gleam! A gleam! Perfection here hath been! The perfect woman dared reveal her face, The perfect man must surely come apace ; Come, catch the fleeting phantom while you may. Success is wrought in me to-day. The trembling man leaped wildly to his feet. But as he watched his fancy melt into the mocking stone, Defeat, The fiendish foe of man ' s ambitious bent was there, and gone The luring vision of a life-ideal. But I have seen her! thus his whispered cry, And by the fact know I the world contains a perfect mate, and I 1 o find him, be it early dawn, or in the darkness late. My quest begin, nor end it though I die. The sculptor journeyed toward the rising sun, In stately halls he learned the lessons of the printed page. This done. He sought his way through homes of wealth, of priest, of gray-haired sage. Yet found no trace of manhood ' s perfectness. O ' er western plains he chased the phantom ghost; The prairie breezes whispered life and freedom to his ears, till lost In God ' s eternal space grew in strength throughout the years, But sensed the failure of his vain pursuit. (56) The frozen North put life into his tread ; The busy world revolved him in its never ending pace. His head Grew gray and care-worn furrows streaked his calculating face; Success was written in his worldly hand. The balmy South extended wide her arms ; With radiant smile she clasped the hand of her most welcome guest. Her charm She poured o ' er all the surging thoughts within his burning breast, But gave him not the idol of his dreams. The fleeting years passed by as ' twere a day. Ambition ' s tantalizing gleam still led him on; his upward way Through plains of peace, and o ' er life ' s thirsty thorn had gone ; His life contained the road- marks and the clay. So, worn and weary, weak from wasted breath. The sculptor stumbled blindly o ' er his rocky road. His certain death Seemed soon to lift from off the burdened soil its crushing load. And make it free to reach its highest end. Beside a crystal mountain spring he fell; No preacher, prayer, nor long procession had he there ; no bell To toll his death. Yet as he gazed into the mirrored pool. Behold, complete, he viewed the image of the Perfect Man, In all the essence of his living soul. (57) (58) (59) The Passing of the Gang Lift the glasses high, boys; We ' ve reached the last good-night; Dry the glistening eye, boys; No use to strike a light. We ' ll just sit by this ruddy fire And listen for a spell To those sweet and solemn stories That old Memory has to tell ; We ' ll sing those dear old songs, boys. That Sixteen always sang When old Pug Hale came out so well As leader of the gang. But Frank went off and left us; It hurt to see him go. We missed him in that Soph ' more year With all its fuss and show. And feasts, and fights, and Friday nights, When ' Fessor Mac below Came oft aloft, intent to quell The noise above, a noise like thunder Familiar sounds to Soph ' more ell, To Kidder, Park, Dave, Alex, Bill, To Oscar, Rankin — it ' s no wonder The patient Prof, should call it thunder; For four long years Carnegie rang With the echoes of that gang. Those Freshman days were balmy days; And, spending them together, We never cared a feather For their length ; and rays Of recollection still are shifting, sifting. On our flooded field of vision. And reflecting as a mirror Thoughts as dear, or even dearer, Than the home-thoughts of our secret souls. The hands that clasped each other then, The hearts that uttered the amen. The voices which in concord rang. Proclaimed a future for the gang. And so throughout the years it held — That bond of union — perfect weld. No civil strife e ' er split our ranks. But all joined in those harmless pranks, Till later years brought deeper joys. And now, tonight, we ' re gathered, boys, For the last good time together. Can you say that we shall never Be the same old bunch again? Say not so — the thought ' s a pang. Can ' t we say that high in heaven, Where the stars of glory hang, There ' s a place all fixed and waiting For a gath ' ring of the gang? (60) (61) Alice Wright President C. F. P.

A few of the passengers were experienced seamen — indeed, there were those who had braved the storms of the more shallow waters for six years. The navigators were spirited, energetic, and enthusiastic, for they expected to run a good course. This vessel passed the Green Isle called Freshman and the Rocky Shoals of Sophomore in safety. There were achievements along literary lines on board this ship which are worthy of mention. A brilliant young orator won the prize in the Peace Contest and represented Maryville at the State Contest. A year later there was a similar occasion, and again one from our crew won the contest and represented Mary ville. One of the passengers, a quiet, unobtrusive little girl, translated so perfectly one of the odes of Horace, The Golden Mean, that it was published. From time to time individuals have distinguished themselves as speakers and leaders. Besides our literary folk, we have in this company musicians, both vocal and instrumental ; mission- aries, ministers, lawyers, doctors, teachers; en finis, people in all professions of life. Achievement in sports aboard this vessel should be mentioned in the history of the voyage. There was a distinguished swimmer, a track manager or two, basketball stars, baseball players, and football heroes. Now that the ship has moved without harm beyond the range of the Magnetic Rock, marking the Junior boundaries, we look forward to the smooth sailing on the Deep Waters of Senior, and already seem to face the seriousness of leaving Bon Voyage to launch out in our respective barks.

We have labored hard and successfully to retain the title given to us in Prepdom — that of being the peppiest class on the hill. Our accomplishments are many and varied. Lack of space, however, permits us to record only a few of them — but was it not the Freshman class who put more men on intercollegiate debate than any other class? Was it not the Class of ' 19 who pulled off two big feasts in the Fall Term? We are proud, and justly proud, of our accomplishments, and we have shown that, although we are not the largest in quantity of any Freshman class that has entered this institution, yet we are not lacking in quality. But, while we have a glorious past to uphold, we have a still more glorious future to look out upon, for we have the good fortune of being the Centennial Class. For one hundred years Maryville College has been waiting to graduate us. For many years past faculty, graduates, and friends of the College have been looking forward to the year 1919, when the centennial of Maryville College will be celebrated. They have worked to the end of making that year the greatest Maryville has ever witnessed. Let us endeavor in the future, as we have in the past, to keep before us the high idea ls of manhood and womanhood and to put forth every effort to make our class an honor and credit to our Alma Mater. Let us, as we go forward in the coming years, be the most spirited class, the best-record class, and the most foremost class on the hill. Let each of us take for his incentive the ideal, Study to show thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed.

But we finish the one only to begin upon another four year course. Our class has always boasted some of the best students on the hill. We have lost some of our members, we are sorry to say, some who have dropped behind and others who have forged ahead. But in looking over the other classes it is easy to recognize those students who at one time have been with us. Wherever we find them, they are always the leaders of their classes and always the first to take the initiative and start the ball rolling in any new enterprise. Our memories of past conquest and glories serve us well in inspiring us to keep up our stride during the remaining years of our college career. We have unanimously agreed that the mem- ories which we shall look back upon four years from now shall be no less a source of pride and pleasure than those of to-day. We are going to establish a record as a class that will honor our glorious past and push us forward into still brighter future. Watch us!

There are two reasons why we have chosen the above as our class motto: First, because it is a LATIN proverb, and we always desire to keep in mind the very pleasant days we spent in the study of this wonderful language, especially as it is used in Caesar. Another reason for the choice of the above proverb is because we feel that it is an appropriate war cry for a Second Preparatory student. We feel comparatively little (when we look at the Seniors), but, oh, my! The Class Prophet says that there are great potentialities and possibilities in the members of our class, and he ought to know. Look at our President! He can ' t be beat! And when it comes to love, we ' re right there, too. Look at our Secretary and Treasurer. And we ' re not green, either, despite the fact that you might infer it from our Vice-President ' s name.

KIEFER Agricultural Department IN these modern times we find a trend toward agricultural education. Maryville College is in sympathy with this form of education and, as a result, has laid foundations for an agricultural course in the College. The head of this new department is a competent man — Mr. A. S. Keifer. Mr. Keifer is a graduate of the Department of Agriculture in Ohio State University. The beginning of the department will of necessity be small. But all things indicate growth and great success along this line. The interest which the local people are showing is one thing which points toward success. Some have made contributions of live stock and farm implements. Money has already been given by friends for a dairy barn. Other indications of success are the facts that the College has land well adapted to farm use, that all the work will be done by students, and that a ready market for all produce will be found in the College Boarding Club of over 500 members. The aim of the new course is three-fold — -first, to teach the fundamental principles of agriculture to students who will teach in the public schools ; second, to teach the fundamental principles of agriculture to a large number of students who will go back to the farm to live ; third, to arouse such an interest in some that they will be influenced to specialize in agriculture at the State University and at other schools. The course will consist of classroom instruction and practical demonstrations. The course will be made as practical as possible, and suited to the needs that are found to exist in and around Maryville.

Much interest has been manifested in the Home Economics Department this year, especially in the science classes. The first year class has had several very successful sales of bread, pastry, and candy. The proceeds have been used to enlarge the equipment of the department. The enrollment of students shows an increase of about 45 per cent over the first year (1914). Possibly this increase is due to the fact that this year is 1916, and the fair sex feel the necessity for proper qualifications before taking advantage of Leap Year. A tailoring course under the direction of Mr. Lewis of Knoxville has become quite popular, members of the faculty and people of the town having been admitted to the class.

The Department of Expression THIS department which has been known in Maryville College for twenty years as the Department of Expression, has been expanded this year, and has become the Department of Expression and Oratory. The work of the Department of Expression is done by Mrs. West, head of the department, ably assisted by Mrs. Walker, of King ' s School of Oratory and Expression. In the Department of Oratory, Dr. Hoyt, succeeding Prof. Myers, gives valuable assistance by teaching Public Speaking and Argumentation, and i individual work in the preparation and outlining of the oration. During the last two ears the department has doubled in numbers, and this year there are more than fifty students enrolled in the study of the spoken word. The work is so planned as to be definite and practical, and suited to the individual need of each pupil.

Miss Hale, who has been appointed head of the Music Department and Teacher of Piano, is a graduate of the Cincinnati Conservatory of Music, and previous to taking charge of the teaching of piano in Maryville College, three years ago, was employed as teacher of piano and harmony in that conservatory. Since she has directed her efforts toward enlarging the Music Department of Maryville College, that department has grown so rapidly that new rooms in the large chapel building have been opened for use as studios and practice rooms, new pianos have been purchased, and four assistant teachers procured. The assistants are graduates of the department who have been further trained for their work by a special course in piano at the Cin- cinnati Conservatory of Music, where they have also made a study of the most advanced methods of teaching. The College considers itself very fortunate in having been able to secure Miss Zanna Staater as Teacher of Voice. Miss Staater is a graduate of the Cincinnati Conservatory of Music, where she attained distinction as a singer. She came highly recommended by her Alma Mater, and has shown herself well equipped for the development of the work which she has in charge. (HO) The Department of Music VIOLIN THE Department of Music of Maryville College has recently been enlarged by the addition of a Violin Department which was placed under the direction of Miss Martha Elizabeth Caldwell. Miss Caldwell has studied at North Texas Female College Conservatory and with Carl Venth of the Venth Violin School of New York. The work is so planned as to give the pupils a thorough foundation in technic. The Dancla and DeBeroit Method is used. Primary Etudes for instruction as to good bowing. Drill is given in the studies for the first, second, third, fourth, and fifth positions. Stress is placed upon solo, duet, and quartet work. Special attention is paid to the production of tone. The College is to be congratulated in having been able to secure Miss Caldwell as a teacher. She has proved herself very capable in organizing and directing this new work.

That is the Maryville College Orchestra playing Loin du Bal. And indeed the sound of their music resembles that mysterious music of the spheres of which we have been told. For our orchestra, though only in its third year, is better than ever before, and dispenses to us willingly and unrewarded. Music, that gentler on the spirit lies Than tired eyelids upon tired eyes. Its playing has been a most attractive feature of our midwinter entertainments, the gymnasium exhibition and other minor occasions. Each member is an artist in his own line, and Maryville College may certainly feel justly proud of her orchestra.

On the last Friday evening before the Christmas holidays a play was given by the Alpha Sigma that will command a long and vivid remembrance from every auditor. Amid the shrieks of women as the horrors of war were floridly depicted and the deathly hush that accompanied the death scenes in the French hospital, the tragedy of the European war was pictured in four thrilling scenes. With the appearance of a jolly American campfire scene at the close of the performance, exhibiting the risable side of life, the distorted minds of all were restored to their accustomed haunts. During this year the progressive spirit of the society has been felt on College Hill. Under the charge of the Alpha Sigma editor, a weekly newspaper, The Highland Echo, has been published. As the year nears its close we are noc only elated by its generous contribution to the society ' s growth, but we are confidently looking forward to an equally affluent year in 1917. To those who receive the Alpha Sigma diplomas this spring we sadly and gratefully bid farewell; sadly because of their value and devotion to the society; gratefully because of their indefatigable efforts in behalf of the society. (120) (121) Ath enian HE Athenian Literary Society is now in its forty-eighth year, and two years from now it will celebrate its fiftieth anniversary. It is planned during this year that a small book be published giving a list of the former followers of the owl, together with a short biography of each. In this book we will find many illustrious names, so much so that merely to mention them as former Athenians throws much credit on the Athenian Society. Such names are those of Dr. McCulloch, Dr. Gamble, Dr. Mitchell, Principal Ellis, Prof. Bassett, Prof. Gillingham, and President S. T. Wilson of Mary- ville College. But our pride is not in the past, but in the present. It is the pride of achievement; for each year we are sending forth numbers of men well fitted to cope with a hostile world. This year the Senior class will take with it seventeen of our most prominent men, and, though the society will be sorry to lose them, it will rejoice that it has been able to prepare so many men for positions of authority. Many have been the opportunities afforded the public to learn of the work done in the Athenian Hall. For five years the class orators who have represented the Senior classes have been Athenian-trained men. These are F. M. Cross ' 16, Sam F. Powell ' 15, F. Lewis Miller ' 1 4, Homer Goddard ' 1 2, George Douglass ' 1 3. This year has been a very prosperous one for the Athenian Society. Many distinguished visitors have come to us, and they have been wel- comed by large and appreciative audiences. The midwinter was also a decided success, being the first of a series that has recreated the interest in the midwinter productions on the hill. This midwinter was the one that set the standard to which the others were to rise or to be a failure. Indeed, the Athenian has ever been a standard maker, and so it may continue through the coming years. (123) f Bainonian Literary Society O build well is to grow, and to grow is to change. All this has happened and is continuing to happen to Bain- onian. The founders of this, the second oldest literary society on the hill, builded better than they knew, for the society ' s whole history has been one of progress, and this year advance has been made by leaps and bounds. When the work for 1915-16 began this fall, every member was eager and ready to make this year a great success, and, to this end, to do her best not only as an individual, but as a member of the group. And when a goodly number of new girls cast in their lot with us, they, too, soon acquired the Bainonian idea and purpose of steady, efficient, worth-while work. But if all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy, surely it will make Jill a dull girl, too, and far be it from Bainonians to have a dull Jill among her number. So, reasoning in this wise, Bainonian decided that it behooved her to frolic every once in awhile, and frolicked she has with two receptions, a stunt night, and a gypsy encampment. Yet the midwinter was not neglected. The plan for it grew from  Grecian Bee to a Bainonian Grecian Evening — one of the most suc- cessful midwinters in the society ' s history. The primary aim of Bainonian is literary attainment, but the need everywhere of well-trained leaders in women ' s clubs is one not to be ignored, and so she aims also that her members leave Maryville College well equipped for doing their share of this work in the world. Hence Bainonian, now and always, means efficient, thorough training for present and future service. (125) Theta Epsilon Literary Society ALTHOUGH the youngest society on the Hill, the Theta Epsilon Literary Society does not feel that this justifies her in taking an inferior place among the other societies. She is proud to possess some of the best literary, dramatic and musical talent on the Hill. The Society this year has surpassed all previous years in attendance, interest and literary attainment. The Mid- Winter was the crowning achievement, said by many to be one of the best Mid-Winters ever given on the Hill. For years Theta has traveled abroad and gathered the nuclei from which have grown her annual public entertainments. This year America was the stage upon which very clever and original scenes typical of the various localities were displayed. Theta has a record to be proud of, but a brighter future lies before her, and she will rise to her loftiest heights by The Touch of Truth and the Wings of Inspiration. (127) Intercollegiate Debate, 1915 ON April 9, 1915, was held the annual intercollegiate debate between Tusculum and Carson-Newman and Maryville College. The question for discussion was: Re- solved, That when internal dissensions threaten the perpetuity of any Latin-American Republic, the United States should intervene to establish a stab le form of government. This was the second of the three year series of contests for a loving cup presented by Dr. Phoebus W. Lyon. Maryville ' s affirmative team, composed of F. R. Whalin, F. M. Moxon, and D. C. Williams debated at home, while C. E. Conrad, S. F. Powell, and S. E. Wallin defended the negative at Tusculum. After a lively contest in which all the men produced convincing argument and acquitted themselves in a creditable manner, the decision went in favor of Maryville at Tusculum, and in favor of Carson-Newman at Maryville. (12?) j LAW CLUB VICTORIOUS IN CASE TRIED IN HIGHEST COURT Old Man Prejudice vs. Mr. Openmindedness, in Which the Latter Wins- Judge Truth Grants Injunction for Existence of Law Cluh Congressman Austin is Entertained by the College Law Club After Banquet Given in His Honor, Mr. Austin Addresses the Local Club — Me Complimented and Encouraged Its Act Local Law Club Makes Unusual Progress— Has Large Enrollment— Conducts Public Trial Prayer-Meeting -Officers: C. L. Smith, Pres.; J. B. Ross, Sec. and Treas.; F. R. Whalin, Vice-Pres.; W. Chandler, Prog.-Sec. -Leads Judge Truth — The next case on the docket is No. 10, between Old Man Prejudice, contesting the right of existence of a Law Club in M. C , and Mr. Openmindedness, representing the Club. Is the case ready? Cler!? Neutral — The case is ready. Plea of Attorney Criticism (representing Old Man Prejudice) — Your Honor, the highest law holds that an institution has the perfect right to expel from its jurisdiction such clubs and organi- zations which are dangerous to the peace of said institutions or to the equity of their operating principles. It is true that t he M. C. Law Club has shown no misconduct at any lime, and we will have to admit that its work is efficient and progressive. However, its purpose is to devolve lawyers, and who among you have not heard of or have not seen lawyers that were actually dis- honest, and it is not for a Christian College to develop men who might have to associate with such, or even be tempted to become such himself. Plea of Attorney Justice — Your Honor, the M. C. Law Club was organized in 1911, and from that time until this the character of its activities has never been questioned. Further- more, its high purpose has not changed, but rather become stronger, and this the training and inspiring of the highest type of Christian lawyers who will dare to advocate the administration of justice at all times throughout the land. Your Honor, the great Judge Truth, whose decision? are never erring, but are always firm and final, this is our plea. Verdict of Judge Truth — In the capacity of Judge Truth, I shall render a verdict beneath the evidence of Witnesses Rashness, Hasty Con- clusion, Misconception, Narrowmindedness, Skep- ticism and Suspicion, for the Plaintiff, and of Equity, Deliberation, Broadmindedness, Purity, Peace, Necessity, Fai:ness, Reason and Investi- gation, for the Defendant. In the Plain tiff ' s discussion, the proceedings are based on no charge or suspicion of misdeed, but on the naked allega- tion of its being composed of prospective lawyers, and I, Judge Truth, remark that the complaining faction approaches the issue within the narrowest and most ng ' .d limit of interpretation of which the unwritten, but natural, treaty stipulations be- tween the two contesting factions, are susceptible. All agree that the club ' s work has been of the highest grade, its conduct a criterion for exempli- fication, and its progress of a phenomenal char- acter. Then this is the only question that re- mains. Is its purpose, which is the development of lawyers, out of harmony with the ideals of a Christian college? The main argument of the Plaintiff is that corruption abides in the law pro- fession. I say to you, and Truth ought to know, that corruption alone cannot condemn any pro- fession. At one time corruplion filled the Church, but did not condemn it. Hate and malice have been cankers of corrosion in tSe human heart, but have not destroyed it. Dishonesty is now mingled in the law profession. What shall the outcome be? Just as the conuoticn has been separated from the church and the malice from the heart, so must this dishonesty be everlastingly expelled from the realm of law, and this by the very men whom the M. C. and similar law clubs are developing. These Christian lawyers shall be the men of power and influence in the world of tomorrow. So the Defendant, unquestionably, gains the point, and may this Law Clubs exist- ence be continued with increased prosperity, its activities developed with untiring diligence, and its effort? crowned with undying endorsement of the best.

M. C. A. on College Hill, there has been no organization, religious or otherwise, that could compare with it. The home of the Association is Bartlett Hall, which was constructed by the students themselves, and contains, in adition to the large auditorium and officers ' apartments, two large basketball courts and gymnasiums and well-stocked reading room. On November I of the school year the large, new college swimming pool was dedi- cated. This pool is undoubtedly without an equal in the whole Southland, and, indeed, cannot be rivalled by that of any school in the country. It was made possible largely by the Y. M. C. A. effort, and is a fitting monument to those who so nobly dedicated themselves to the task of completing the swimming pool fund. In addition, the Y. M. C. A., through the supervision of its very efficient com- mittees, is a power for good not only throughout the entire student body, but also throughout the whole community. Devotional meetings are held every Sunday afternoon, and Bible and mission study classes every Sunday morning. The evangelistic committee conducts the work of personal evangelism on the Hill, while the social service committee carr.es the message of Jesus to those who are in prison or shut in. The importance of giving to foreign missions has always been impressed in Maryville College, and the students, through the Fred Hope fund, contribute to the support of an alumnus in Africa. At the beginning of each term an information bureau is conducted by the Y. M. C. A., which also publishes the College Handbook for the use of all students. Five good attractions are always presented in the Y. M. C. A. Lyceum Course, which is recog- nized as being one of the most entertaining and instructive courses offered in the College. As a fitting beginning to the year ' s work, about twenty men usually attend the Sheep Pen Conference, camping on the high bluffs of the Tennessee River and enjoying a week of Christian fellowship. Plans are made for the year ' s work, and the benefits do not remain wholly with the men themselves, but add greatly to the effectiveness of the Y. M. C A. in Maryville College. (139) Young Women ' s Christian Association t; i rpHE Maryville College Y. W. C. A. attributes the cause of its wonderful success for the year 1915-16 to the conscientious, faithful and effici- ent work of its leader. Miss Lura Creswell. Through her efforts the Cabinet performed its duties as a unit and every member of the Association stood ready for service. Miss Mary Miles did not have much work to do as Vice-President of our Association, but she was one of the ready members of the Cabinet for committee work. In the summer she acted as Cor- responding Secretary, making the girls who were planning to enter College feel that they were needed and welcome. When school opened many blue girls were encouraged and brightened by the Reception Committee, of which Miss Mary Miles was Chairman. The Membership Committee visited the new girls who entered at the different terms and presented the object of our organization in a way that caused the Association membership to be the largest it has ever been in all our history. This membership is active and associate. The Treasurer s books show the years work accomplished by the Secretary and Treasurer. These books are accurate, neat, and systematic. Miss Burns has worked hard, using vigor and tact in collecting dues and managing the financial affairs, making one of the best Treasurers the Association has ever had. The Devotional Committee provided for all our religious meetings, appoint- ing good leaders and suggesting appropriate topics for them. These meetings jmjK were announced in both the girl ' s dormitories by means of attractive posters. One of the special devotional meetings was given to the National Jubilee. This was a celebration of the founding of the Y. W. C. A. in this country fifty years ago. The Conference Committee is appointed for the purpose of sending delegates from our Association to the Blue Ridge Conference. Miss Emma Miles, the Chairman of this Committee, represented Mary- e College in 1915. This Committee led two meetings in which they summed up the beauty, the pleasure and the good gotten from this won- derful Conference. Through the members of the Social Com- mittee, the girls on the hill enjoyed a picnic in the woods, a Social Tea and some other attractive feats. The Cabinet Council Con- ference of the East Tennessee Schools, con- sisting of about twenty-five or more girls, was entertained by the Committee. In the policy drawn up by the Committee the following was one of the articles : To become (140) personally personally acquainted with and lo seek to make friends with all the girls on the hill. The Y. W. C. A. Library of IVlaryville College is composed of four hundred and fifty volumes. Part of this Library is a Memorial to Florence K. McManigal. a former instructor, now deceased. The endeavor has been made in the selection of ! these books, lo represent all phases of literature. 1 3 if k ' fl Miss Aphanne Slnplin is Chairman of the mittee in charge of the library. The faithful work of this Committee has been appreciated. Every Sabbath afternoon one member has kept the book- cases open for the giving out and returning of books. The Associate News Committee, Miss Anna Jones, Chairman, has provided daily papers for both girl ' s dormitories, also the North American Student and the Association Monthly. Sometimes college girls miss that feeling of being a part of the far-reaching, ever-growing, world-wide organization, but if the Association Monthly is read that feeling is assured. The Association strives to educate its members along all lines possible, so it offers two courses of study every year. Bible Study and Mission Study were taken up in the fall. There were two classes : Professor Myers led a class in Christian Standards of Living, and Miss Mary Kate Rankin led one in Christian Citizenship for Girls. These classes met in the Sunday-school rooms at the regular Sun- day-school hour. There were two Mission Study classes also. Miss Jackson led one in The Southern Mountaineer, a book writ- ten by our own College President, and Prof. Johnson led a class in The Era in Asia. These classes were large and successful. Alertness and steadfastness are absolutely essential in carrying on Y. W. C. A. work. And a knowledge of our ideal, given by the South Central Field Secretary, arouses us to a thoughtful considera- tion of our national motto: I have come that they might have life and that they might have it more abundantly.

The Ministerial Association was organized not to segregate its members from the other students, but for consultation and organization of its various Christian activities in the College and the surrounding com- munity. The Association has increased in number each year until this year the full enrollment was thirty-two members. (143) - f Student Volunteer Band HE Evangelization of the World in This Generation. Is this motto an ideal or a challenge? To the Student Volunteer it is a challenge calling for courage, persistence, and ingenuity to the highest degree. Having accepted this challenge, the Student Volunteers of all the colleges and universities are earnestly preparing for the task. Information from returned missionaries and traveling secretaries and experience in conducting the deputation work of the Band have given valuable preparation to the members of the local organization during the past year. Besides the different studies and reports delivered by members of the Band at the regular weekly meetings, we have had presented to us a general view of the mission field by Mr. H. G. Hounshell, Traveling Secretary of the Student Volunteer Movement. Miss Schultz, Secretary of one of the Women ' s Boards, gave the members of the Band a heart to heart talk on missionary preparation. Rev. Arthur J. Brown, Rev. Richard Post, and Prof. Robert McClenahan visited the College during the past year and spoke to us on missions, Siam and educational work in Egypt, respectively. Miss Helen Silsby gave us an interesting talk on the work in Shanghai, China, at the beginning of the year. The inspiration received from these first-hand sources cannot be estimated. The deputation work of the Band has consisted of monthly addresses before the Sunday Schools of the town by different members of the Band. Numerous meetings of the Young People ' s Societies of the town have also been conducted by the Band. During the past year a missionary corner has been fitted out on the second floor of the Lamar Memorial Library. Here are placed the relics, books, and pamphlets of the Band. Everyone is cordially invited to acquaint himself with this corner. The Evangelization of the World in This Generation — we are preparing to meet that challenge. Will you not help to realize it?

The start of the season was not marked by any indications of a record-making team, but there came to us a silent, unassuming giant from Ohio State, and when he sounded the call for candidates for the squad the usual disorderly array came forth to display their wares. This season there did not appear the wealth of old men at the first as is usually the case, as several were late in entering school, and the Giant from the North later confessed that he spent several sleepless nights over the general appearance of things. Gradually old men came, and before the big games eight of the letter men of previous years put in their appearance, and around these as a nucleus. Coach Kiefer built his team. It was not a team of stars, although there were men of that caliber on it. Rather was it a well-balanced machine, in which the defensive outshone the offensive, as the uncrossed goal line would indicate, but the offensive was also of great power, as the total score of 248 points plainly shows. The success in a large measure was due to Coach Kiefer and his system of training and conditioning the men. They did not always hope to win when they went into a game, but they were always sure that it would not be because every man had not given his all. The customary preliminary game of the season, in which Central High, as usual, furnished the opposition, resulted in a large score, run up by some twenty men who were allowed to participate. The next contest was also a romp, in which Washington College was the opponent. The third game was the surprise of the season, for the mighty Moccasins from the University of Chattanooga, led by the famous Spiegel, who were being mentioned as contenders for the Southern championship, came to give the Highlanders a few of the fine points of football. However, when the dust of the battle had settled, the dreaded snake lay writhing on the field with two large and beautiful knots neatly tied in its battered corpse. It was then that we awoke to the realization that we were represented by an eleven of marked merit. Journeying to Bristol, King College was mastered with comparative ease, as was Emory and Henry College at Emory, Va., in the following contest. Then we met Tusculum on the home gridiron, who proved to be our most worthy opponent. In a field of mud, in a cold rain, we battled to a scoreless tie, although outplaying the oppo- nents in every department of the game. The season closed with Carson and Newman College in Morristown on Turkey Day, when the only opposition we experienced was the stop-watch. In this contest we displayed for the first time everything that we had and amassed a score of a hundred, less one. (151) We were given the undisputed championship of East Tennessee and Southwestern Virginia. Four men from the Highlanders landed positions on the mythical all-star team picked from this section. To each man, Varsity or scrub, we owe a debt of gratitude for their clean, gritty, unselfish playing for old Maryville, but we owe more to the silent Giant, who in a large measure made possible the success that came to us, and the name of Coach Kiefer will always find a responsive chord in the hearts of the supporters of the Orange and Garnet.

Winning every game played by an exceedingly one-sided score, and never at any time being in danger of defeat, the girls claim, and justly claim, the championship of the entire South. Under the faithful and skillful coaching of Miss Arda Martin and the competent leadership of Miss Catherine Sugg, the team this year was undoubtedly the strongest Maryville has ever turned out. In Miss Martin and Miss Wilson, Maryville has two forwards who cannot be equalled, while the other members of the team are not far behind. Manager Lois Wilson arranged a schedule that would have been a hard one in other years, but this season none of the teams were in Maryville ' s class at all, and all were defeated overwhelmingly. In six games played Maryville scored 319 points to her opponents ' 63. It is hoped that next year stronger teams may be scheduled, and also that the faculty may deem it fitting to allow the girls a Southern tour. (160) (161) Basketball ASKETBALL in Maryvilie College during the last generation has ad- vanced from the embryonic stage of the individual playing into a stage of well-developed team work. 1 he team this year was one of the ablest passing teams of which Maryvilie has ever boasted. Every member of the team was a fast and accurate passer and relied upon team work to win the games. The 1915-16 season is one of the best that any Maryvilie basketball team has ever passed through. Of the fifteen games played, eleven of them resulted in victories for Maryvilie. Because of injuries sustained in the first game of a week ' s trip, three defeats came in rapid succession. Wake Forest defeated Mary- vilie through superior passing and goal shooting. The University of North Carolina and the Greensboro Y. M. C. A. had weaker teams than Maryvilie, but were able to win over a crippled team. The last game was lost to Kentucky State University, when two of Maryville ' s regulars were on the hospital list. Maryvilie broke even in the eight games played away from home and won all of their home games. This warrants the current statement, The best team in years. The second team showed the Varsity spirit, team work first, and as a result they won all the games played. Two of the most exciting games played on the local floor were scrub games. These players deserve much credit for the successful Varsity on account of the hard practice they afforded our winning team. Truly, the past season was the best ever. The scrubs won all their games, and the Varsity more than two-thirds of their scheduled games.

Mr. A. G. Hinkle, of the Class of ' 14, had conducted our devotional exercises and was just launching out upon one of those fine chapel talks which had its beginning thus: Really, I am surprised to come back and find so many of the old landmarks still here. At this point these words, Carnegie is on fire! were whispered to the young men on the back seats, who told the fellows on the seat in front and hurried out. In this way the whole chapel was emptied without cry or panic. Soon everyone was at the scene of the fire. Everything was calm. Everyone was intent upon extinguishing the flames. Students went scurrying hither and thither for something in which to carry water. The fire was on the spiral stairs in the west end. Soon the information came that the flames had gained too much headway, and that there was no hope of saving the building. The flames were eager. Very slowly, but surely, they crept through the halls, into the rooms, out the windows, up through the roof. The building was wrapped in a curtain of smoke and flame. This thought was in the mind of everyone: If the fire could only be stopped. As the flames became more fierce, the hearts grew heavier. Did not every nook and corner of that old hall have memories? Memories that flitted in and out of burning Carnegie on swift wings? These fond memories were for the instant forgotten when the call came: In, boys, and save your belongings! Eagerly the crowd rushed in to save everything possible. Out of many of the windows came the boys ' belongings — books, hats, shirts, shoes, brushes, pictures, suits, pennants, pillows, beds, caps, trinkets, trunks, suit cases — every- thing in confusion was thrown to the ground below, where friends carried them to safety. Out of the doors came trunks, dressers, pianos, and all things that could be reached. Many of the boys were cut off from their rooms, and everything that they had but this did not daunt them. They rushed in and helped their hallmates save their things, just as though their own possessions were entirely safe and all depended upon saving the things at hand. After everyone had been driven from the building by heat, smoke, and danger, boys were seen calmly looking over the things saved, and gathering into heaps their widely scattered treasures. Many a sad glance was cast toward the burning building, for that was the home of one hundred and twenty-six young men — many of whom lost all except the clothes which they were wearing. Many mourned the loss of a scrapbook, picture, suit, horn, or all which meant much or all to the owner. Almost, though, before the smoke had ceased to rise from the debris that had been our stately dorm a few hours before, all the young men had found homes, due to the kindness of the faculty and the willingness of the town ' s people to share their homes. Thus passed one of our most stately landmarks, and with its passing came a great loss to the boys and to the College, but the far-famed Maryville Spirit, which never admits defeat, refuses to acknowledge discouragement, and no one expresses a doubt that there will rise from the ruins a new Carnegie, larger, better equipped, and more suited to the needs of the young men of a greater Maryville.

One of these two was a Freshman who at that time was famous for possessing a mustache of distinctive cut. Now, it has been claimed that some Sophomores, being jealous of the mustache, did maliciously waylay the Freshman as he returned home that night, and did cruelly deprive him of one-half of his pretty mustache. I, The Author, am not able to say whether or not this be true, but certain it is that a sudden sickly appearance did come over the ill-fated mustache, and after a long struggle to regain its former health ... it deceased. With this as a background, I, The Author, wish to present a little drama which I lovingly dedicate to Professor Myers, for he, too, has a preface. CUTIT A Tragedy in One Act Cast of Characters C. Hiz Mustache A cunning Freshie I. L. Cutit Carrier of the pruning shears B. E. Merciful Friend and companion of Mustache Able T. Holdit Friend of Cutit, known as Strong-Arm Pete U. N.

Pretty good, Mustache, pretty good. But, hark! Why the darkly outlined figures against the hedge } Mustache: Tis but a crowd of possum-hunters. {Enter the bandits.) CUTIT (to Holdit) : Grab it. Holdit, grab it and hold it. Holdit: Aw, cut it, Cutit. I ' ll hold it and you cut it. (Holdit, Cutit, Armed, Human and Quid? step in behind Mustache and Merciful. Holdit seizes Mustache and holds him.) Holdit: Grab his feet. Quick, grab his feet. Quick: I can ' t, Holdit, I can ' t. Human ' s in the way. Merciful: Help! Fire!! Murder!!! Mustache must not be cut off from this generation. ARMED (to Merciful) : Stand back, I ' ll shoot you; I am armed. (Merciful strides Armed.) Be merciful, Merciful; I am Armed.

TRAGEDY Johnny with the jam-jar To the cellar did adjourn. And when he issued forth again His mother did discern Suspicions of a halo About his smiling mouth; But the last we heard from Johnny, It was warmer in the south. (195) ' Whiskers There ' s a spirit of the darkness Who opposes harmless fun; Who, in stalking all his victims, Always says: You need not run. Gee! It ' s great to see him running , And it ' s funny ' bout that gun. Cause he uses only powder And he says: You need not run. But ' tis he who spoils our class stunts, Like the owl, he needs no sun — He ' s the guy that greets you, saying ' : I have you; you need not run. And I hope that Over Yonder, When our worldly tasks are done, That I ' ll hear St. Peter greet him: I have you; you need not run. —A. B. C, ' 16.
