DON J. YOUNG Pender, Nebr., claims the honor of being the birthplace of Mr. Young. The date of his birth is not known. He claims to have forgotten all about it himself. At the age of eight he convinced his parents that they should accompany him to Peru. He grew up as most small boys do and incidentally attended the normal and graduated in 1907. After graduation he superintended the Yutan schools, going from there to the Wahoo High School. The year previous to his coming to Auburn he spent in the State University. His summers have been spent in the employ of the Ridpath Chautauqua out of Kansas City. Seldom indeed does a teacher come into closer touch with his students than does Mr. Young. There has hardly been a project this year that has not been ben-efitted by his warm interest and kind assistance. For his helpful criticism of this took during its construction we are truly grateful.

SUP’T. J. A. DOREMUS One of the greatest facts in the life of the class of 1914 is its close personal relationship with Mr. Doremus. Each member of the Senior class feels that he is his adviser and that he has a special interest in him and his individual welfare. The majority of organizations would never obtain results were there no leader to whom they could at all times look for friendly advise and wise direction, and who would ever be ready to point out the right course and suggest the best methods. At the outset the members of an organization are attached to their leader thru respect and admiration; later a real friendship develops which grows deeper and stronger as time advances. So it has been with the Class of 1914 and Mr. Doremus. Mr. Doremus' career had its beginning in Rantoul, 111. His boyhood days were spent in Wisconsin, where he attended the public school at Janesville. He came to Nebraska at the age of fourteen, and later entered the Gates academy and college at Neligh. Wisconsin seemed to have made an excellent impression on him during his boyhood, as is shown by the fact that he returned to that state and graduated from the University of Wisconsin in 1897. After graduation he returned to Gates college for five years as a teacher, becoming principal his last year there. He spent the following year in seeing the western part of the United States. After spending five years at Madison as superintendent he came to Auburn. It is not necessary to call attention to what he has accomplished since coming here, as there is some very material evidence which speaks for itself.
