Page f0UI' To Miss Catherine Comfort, in appreciation of her interest in and true friendship for the Bradley students, we respectfully dedicate this fifteenth volume of the Polyscope. Miss Comfort received the degree of A. B. from the University of Minne- sota in l890. Since then she has done graduate work at the University of Minnesota and the University of Chicago. During the five years she has been with us, she has earned the honor and respect of everyone and has won a place in the heart of every Bradley student. In spite of the multiplicity of her duties as the Head of the Department of English, Miss Comfort has devoted much time and thought to social and charitable activities. She believes in boys and girls, and is a friend to every student who deserves a friend. In the dedication of this book, we hope to convey our sincerest appreciation for the many acts of kindness by Miss Comfort. Page five FOREWORD This book is an expression of school life at Bradley. It is the result of many hours of earnest thought and sincere effort. We have tried to make it a thoroughly representative annual. With this aim and the aid of some of our teachers, especially Mr. Elwood, who designed the cover, and with the help of our fellow students, we have brought together material which we think will be of interest to you. We hope it will recall many pleasant memories of your student days and inspire you, as it has us, with a newer and deeper love for your Alma Mater. THE POLYSCOPE STAFF OF l9l5.

FRENCH OSMOND SPEAR A Page forty-four I v SENIOR FAREWELL Commencement time is here for the class of I9I5 of Bradley Polytechnic Institute. The end of this school year marks the culmination of two years of hard work with its varied and profitable experiences. We shall not forget the pleasant experiences and good times incident to our college life as a class, or the class associations and personal friendships formed with our fellow class- mates. Two years ago, the occasion seemed so far off from us that we dared not think of it, but now, as we look back, what a short two years they seem to have been. I-Iow fortunate we are to be graduating at this time, to stand as we do at the threshold of our vocations. We ought always to be proud of our Bradley training and Iet us hope that the faculty will never have reason to consider us with anything other than a feeling of pride and satisfaction. Let us, then, uphold the honor and dignity of Bradley and give the world our best efforts. We, indeed, are fortunate to be graduating from a school of so high a standing as Bradley Polytechnic Institute: we are fortunate in having been under the instruction of a faculty, the members of which took an active interest in us, a faculty which includes those who take high rank in their respective departments. We must say good byen now as students, but our happy thought is that we may always return as faithful alumni. The memory of the days spent here at Bradley will always keep alive in us our Iove for our Alma Mater and wherever we are in the future our thoughts wiII often revert to her and this class of I9I5.

I.-I-Iere we have the famous Irlorology Hall wherein is caged I-Iorologs from every state in the Union-Mexico and Canada included. The cut in no wise does justice to the grandeur and beauty of this magnificent structure, but we leave it to your highly cultivated sense of imagination to realize the incom- parable value of this department of the Bradley Polytechnic Institute. 2.-And here we show you that the best of men sometimes fall. Two of our most popular and well known students in the roles of Messrs. Swartz and Pinker. This picture was taken right after they were served their last meal preparatory to their being put to death. We ask you to particularly note that death-defying smile so emblematic of their I-Iorological courage. And too, gaze longingly and with much reflection on the tenacious hold of the inoculated weed 'twixt Pinker's teeth. Then ponder, reflect, muse- 3.-And here we have Pedie Falck, the well-known golflst. We ask you to note yon house in the rear which gives you a graphic idea of his wonderful skill in the manipulation of the brassie . The house to which we refer, is ninety-seven miles from the spot whereon he stands and by a simple twist of the wrist and a little elbow movement, he hurled the white faced marble thirty furlongs past this domicile. Some drive!! 4.-We call your particular attention to this painting. The artist has very carefully shown you how Pinker has sprung a joke and Miss Doty patiently waiting to see through it. 5.-We were very fortunate indeed in securing this valuable portrait of Mr. Louie Abraham Isaac Lazoo Christophillus Bugenstein, the Cedar Rapids Dutchman. At an early period of the present war when Germany was calling for volunteers, Louie cheerfully abandoned his work here and hurried to the front. I-le is still there. 6.-And here is Bobbie Mernitz likewise ready and willing to be called to the front at any minute. 7.-just a quartette of good fellows,-that's allg Thorson, Stensing, Swartz, and Peterson. 8.-This is Jodie the celebrated comedian. More about him on the next page. 9.-Introducing Stannard A. Smith, the South Dakota lad who won fame for himself in Track work. A regular fellow through and through and a real I-Iorolog. IO.-This picture is entitled, Love in the Park . Isn't it cute? Il.-We don't know the young lady but IVIernitz does and has for some time. Page fifty-si! l2.-This is Dr. E. Pennington from Waco, Texas. He is known to all the boys as Tex and to the girls as little Jerome. He is department represen- tative for the Horologs on the Athletic Board and also a member of Beta Sigma Mu fraternity. I3.-Knights of the Motorcycle. We don't know how Biddlemeyer crowd- ed in this picture but we can't avoid the inevitable. l4.-She is known to many. For further information consult Red Drue. l5.-One of the pretty drives through Bradley Park. We show Stannard Smith out for a ride in his two-legged humobile . I6.--The charming little Ditto-at rest. I7.-This is Bobbie Nlernitz on his way to Grizzly Inn. l8.-Scotti is not from Scotland but he 's'cot a cigar in his mouth. Note: He is not on the campus either. I9.-A trio of Sunday afternoon smiles. Left to right: McCarty, Oliver and Marquart. 20.-This is Mr. Carl Hill to whom we are greatly indebted for this col- lection of pictures. Do you notice the Horologs fear not the rule of smoking on the campus? Zl.-Oh my! yes! the Horologs are strong for the children. If they haven't any of their own to fondle, they do the next best thing. 22.-Showing you one of Peoria's prettiest avenues. Also some of the boys calling on their friends. 23.-A group of intelligence. 24.-Don't you think McCarty makes some woman? Sh!! don't tell any- one but Limhardt, the boy on his right is his husband. 25.-Funny thing Gus Swartz would pose with his lady friend for picture 25, eh what? 26.-This is our old friend step and a half Moxey from Pekin, the walking encyclopedia of domestic information. 27.-This picture is truly a masterpiece. The only snap shot in existence of a Horolog not smoking on the campus. 28.- Tubby Overstreet as the Goddess of Liberty in the famous wood- land farce, The Dance of the Wildsf' Note that clever pose. 29.-The ever good natured Carl Hill taking his daily sun bath. 30.-This is the guy who has caused you so much grief all year through the medium of the Tech .

They look enough alike to be brothers. .-Shorty Marquart volplaning from a distance of 3652 feet above sea .-All ready for the battle. We have here Bob, joe, Tubby and Ogie. -This picture is not exactly right. Note closely the distance between and Charline and you will readily perceive why. .-If you don't think joe was a regular lady's man how about this for See how carefully he handles the gentle Wilma. .-This painting is but two feet long. - Kiss Jodie. .-Here girls, take your choice. There are too many to individualize matter. What your ideal may be you will surely find him here. And now our little work is done, We hope you've liked it-twas lots of fun. We've done our best-at least we hope So we leave you now with the Polyscope.

This year the club departed from the old custom of having but the three business meetings and provided for a social affair in the spring quarter which took the form of a weiner roast.

The fall and winter quarters were taken up with a study of the Poems of Browning. During the spring quarter the interest will will be centered in the study of short stories as contained in current magazines. The English Club combined with the English Club of the Peoria High School brought Dr. S. H. Clark to Peoria. Dr. Clark delivered a read- ing of King Lear at Bradley upon the night of Friday, May fourteenth. A short play and a spread was given at the last meeting in honor of the graduating members of the Club and those who had but newly recevied membership.

The Club has regained its former popularity, and this success has been due chiefly to the faithful work of the worthy president, Grace Maple. The first of these dances took place in the Big Gym, on Saturday even- ing, February twentieth. The enjoyment of the many guests in the latest music and dances, was exceeded only by the dainty supper, which was served later in the Social Hall. The second and last of the Social Club dances, for this year, was given on Friday, April thirteenth. Although the attendance was perhaps somewhat less than on the former occasion, all spent an enjoyable evening, and expressed their regret that there would be no more this year. The President has asked that her appreciation be expressed to those who helped to make those events such memorable ones.

This being an invitation meeting to the new students, Mr. Payne, to whose guidance the Club owes much, explained the purpose of and the advantages of membership in the Arts and Crafts Club. A temporary committee was selected for the handling of the affairs of the Club until the election of officers. At the second meeting, held October I6, Mr. Woellner was elected Presi- dent, Miss Miller, Vice-president: Mr. Weese, Secretary, and Miss Gibbons, Treasurer. These newly elected officers, after rendering their respective impromptu speeches designed to serve the occasion, were duly initiated, or sworn in, by Mr. Payne, curator. Succeeding the business meeting, a social hour was spent in games, music and dancing. Of special interest to the members of the Arts and Crafts Club was the lecture given by Miss Van Pelt, at the meeting held November l3th. Her subject was The Teaching of Art in the Public Schools, and exhibitions of some of the results secured thru the use of her methods in the schools of Peoria, were shown. A regular good time meeting was the one of January 23rd. The enter- tainment and refreshment committees combined to furnish such a jolly even- ing's fun for everyone that it was generally thought to be a joke when the orchestra started the unlooked-for strains of Home, Sweet Homef' and only a consultation with sundry Waterbury's and lngersoll's convinced the merry- makers that they must needs abandon the waxed floor. For the meeting of February l8th, the Club secured Mrs. Dundas to give a talk on sculpture and allied arts. Mrs. Dundas proved herself to be quite an expert in modeling, shaping the rough clay into familiar faces as she talked. After the lecture, photographs for the Polyscope were taken. Thru the courtesy of Mr. Bennett, the Pedagogy and the Arts and Crafts Clubs were enabled to co-operate in securing a lecture by Dr. Dean. All were privileged to attend and enjoy this unusual opportunity of hearing a lecture given by one so thoroughly versed in his subject as is Dr. Dean. The work of Bradley Polytechnic being related to Dr. Dean's theme Vocational Education, made his lecture one of especial interest and help to the Bradley students. Dr. Dean left us with a broader conception of the ideals, extent, and service of Vocational Education. Mr. Wagner, a genius from among our number, consented to give one of his inimitable and humorous chalk talks before the Arts and Crafts Club. His genuinely funny cartoons and witty sayings were the features of the even- ing at the meeting held April l5th. Among the many meetings held this year, none were better enjoyed than the Social meeting on the evening of May l4th. After a number of songs and piano solos, which were of a most delightful nature, dancing and refresh- ments lilled the remainder of this meeting. Excluding the formal presentation of the Arts and Crafts Club to the Institute, our last gathering for a social time, was given at Bradley Park in the form of a picnic. To say the least, all enjoyed the afternoon of 'out of door' entertainment and good fellowship, among the many picturesque spots of our ever to be remembered Bradley Park.

The first notice given the club by the out-of-town girls was when those little yellow notes were dispersed through the school at the beginning of the year, pleasantly turning all fears, however, into joyous anticipation on the part of the out-of-town girls. It was only that same little stunt-asking the girls to a lantern parade Sept. 25, l9l4. After being led around the Bluff, along Faculty Row and other noted places, the march ended in chapel where a stunt show was given. A little play called, The Sweet Family, was enacted by the older girls, followed by a pajama chorus with its dreamy songs. After this little performance, the parade again took up its winding way and led over to Social I-lall, where there was dancing and refreshments. As soon as the girls were sufficiently acquainted, they took their leave. Since then, they have tried to meet regularly once a month and have enjoyed teas, gossip at sewing circles and the usual line of social affairs enjoy- ed wherever lively girls. congregate. At Thanksgiving time a banquet was given by the club at the Home Dining Room to the out-of-town people who were remaining over. The general at- mosphere of softening shades and candle light of the tables was balanced by the witty toasts given by those who responded. The as-yet-unattainable has been tackled by the Pellite Desiderium, the ball has been set rolling, and, if the good work continues, the school's future patrons of the feminine type will have their quarters in a real-for-sure dor- mitory. A mile of pennies has been started with the hopes of raising that much money as a starter for the fund, to be increased as the generosity of public donators see fit. The one thing which has occasioned the club any sorrow or regret, was the sickness of its beloved founder, Miss l..eFevre, but her entire recovery is the hope of each club member. A much appreciated reception was given to the out-of-town girls by the Faculty's wives. l-lere was the chance of the girls to get acquainted with the wives of the professors they had-and the professors that most of them didn't have. Tea and cakes were served, Mrs. Burgess and Mrs. Bennett presiding at the daintily appointed table. The rest of the wives were seen following one another in and out the groups of girls, carrying pretty little baskets with still prettier and sweeter cakes on them. A little playlet, Quarreling is Better than l..onesomeness, was given by three of the wives. The afternoon was closed appropriately by something close to the girls' own hearts and experiences -the histories of the unique experiences of the wives in their school-days. We hope that this year's work will have meant something to Bradley and we express our desire that the good work go on and be not in vain. N. C. B.

After his graduation from Hiram College he attended Chicago Training School. Following his graduation from there he coached at Hiram College. He then became Athletic Director of the Cleveland public schools, from which position he came to us. For the past 4 years he has served as President of the Inter- collegiate Athletic Association and was again elected to this office for l9l5. During the time Mr. Brown has been with us, Bradley has taken such a great elise in athletic standing that it is now known for a radius of many miles in this rise of school activity. During his time here Bradley has won three champion- ships. In l9ll baseball, l9l2 track, and l9l3 basketball. Besides these, this year's athletics have been a wonderful success, a second in football and a third in basketball. We are now in first place in baseball and have very promis- ing track prospects. Pago one-hundred four sf B . , ix.. .W ' COACH MARTIN. About a year and a half ago a new coach came to Bradley. Before his arrival here he had been a member of University of Kansas football team and Wentworth Military Academy's track team. Immediately on his appearance here he created quite a sensation, especially in the English department. With the aid of Dr. Swaim he soon had an excellent football team developed. Then following this, his track team finished fourth in the big Intercollegiate track meet. Then the l9l4 football season in which Bradley finished second losing only to William-Vashti, and now this year's track team which promises to be a winner. We certainly hope he will be with us again next year. COACH SWAIM. Dr. Swaim proved a very valuable asset to the l9l4 football team. His excellent coaching of the line was one of the things that helped make the team what it was. He was very well fitted for this, as he was for three years a mem- ber of the Indiana State University's football team.

Much interest has been displayed in girls' athletics this year, and most of it has been aroused by Miss Lagerquist. The girls' basket ball tournament and the awarding of numerals and B's in different branches of athletics are prominent devices which she successfully used. Girls' athletics might event- ually approach the standard of boys' athletics if Miss Lagerquist were to super- intend the process: but as that is not to be, the girls sincerely hope that she will be as successful in all of her future enterprises as she has been in teaching gymnastics at Bradley.

FOOTBALL The I9I4 football season was undoubtedly the most successful in the history of the school. The team won six of the seven games played, and defeated some of the best teams in the conference. The only game lost was to W. 8: V. at Aledo, the I9I4 conference champions. Playing on a foreign field, in a crippled con- dition and with luck breaking the wrong way, their heavier opponents won over the fighting red and white players. When the all state team was picked, Lawry Strauch was almost unanimously elected to fullback position because of his consistent playing. On the second team Bradley was given three places 5Capt. Don Strauch at quarter, Chas. Smart at center and McCaslin at right end. Never before has such an honor been bestowed on Bradley along this line, so every Bradley student should in one accord take off his hat to Coach Martin, Capt. Don Strauch and their excellent team. At the very outset prospects looked good for Bradley. A total of 34 men reported. They were quickly moulded into shape and showed their worth when they overwhelmingly defeated Eureka College 58 to 0 in their first game. Lawrence Strauch, his brother Don, Vickery, Smart and Bryant were the stars of this contest. In this game Bradley suffered a great loss in the temporary injury of Tom Coodfellow, star end. The next game scheduled was with Lincoln, but because of weather con- ditions this was cancelled. On October 24th, the team met Hedding at Abingdon, and won a decis- ive victory 32 to 0. Again Lawry, Don, Vickery and Smart starred. On the next Saturday the team accompanied by more than l00 rooters journeyed to Normal. Here in the most exciting contest of the season they defeated I. S. Normal I4 to 7. Bill Allen, last year's captain and star was seen in action, faction I said?-he, with the Strauch brothers and Smart were the shining lights of the game. In this contest Vickery, our sensational little quarter- back, was injured so that he was unable to play any more the entire season, also Bill Allen received a sprained ankle holding him out until the last game. It was a heavy blow to the team, but it bore it well and kept on fighting. The next week Bradley met her old foe Wesleyan, and scored a decisive victory. The score after the smoke cleared off stood I5 to 0 in the Red and White's favor. Once again Lawry and Don, with Smart, lVlcCaslin and Wil- liams played the stellar game. Up to this time Bradley had won five games and lost none, and she had scored II9 points to her opponent's 7. On the l-4th of November the team left for Aledo, where they met their first defeat. The game has been previously described, but it is a game never to be forgotten by those who witnessed it. W. Si V. scored early and at the end of the first half the score stood I3 to 0. In the next half Bradley took the jump and completely bewildered the locals with open plays. ln a short time lVIcCaslin was over for a touchdown, and Lawry kicked goal, but a few Page one-hundred len minutes later Don was removed from the game with a sprained ankle. Still the team kept up the attack on the offense but took a decided slump on the defense. As a result Vashti totaled up 21 points in the last part and won 34 to 7. L. Strauch was the individual star. Time and again he made 30 to 40 yards by his open field running. Bryant and Williams in the tackling department and Don and Smart in all around playing also rivaled him for laurels. On the following Saturday before an immense crowd Bradley defeated Illinois College 25 to IZ. Bill Allen was back in the game and together with his stellar playing and that of the Strauchs, Williams and Smart, Bradley won their first game in the school's history on banquet day. Now, to sum up the season's work-Bradley scored 151 points in contrast to their opponents 53. They won six of seven games played and succeeded in winning third place in conference standing. They defeated some of the best teams in conference and placed four men on all conference teams. Much credit is due Coaches Martin, Swain and Brown, who together with the hearty co-operation of the student body made the most successful season in the athletic career of Bradley. Thos. Coodfellow who thru ill-luck received injuries in the first game was elected to captain of next year's team. We all wish him great success and hope for as good a season next year. But there is one thing lacking. That is material-in order to have a good first team the Coaches must have a second, so in order to make it more attractive a second team with a schedule of six games will be arranged next year. This year four new men received their letters, Woodrow, Fetzer, Wil- liams and Bryant. Fifteen B's were awarded and six sweaters. B's were awarded to Capt. Don Strauch, L. Strauch, lVlcCaslin, Smart, Cleaveland, Fetzer, Dolies, lVlakut- chan, Griffin, Goodfellow, Vickery, Bryant, Williams, Price and Woodrow: and sweaters to Don Strauch, Smart, Dolies, Woodrow, Makutchan, Price, Bryant and Goodfellow, and lVlanager's B. to john Voss, who was unable to play because of injury. Nevertheless john made a very excellent manager. Page one-hundred aleven V. , vm .Ja ,loan 5.41. . ' Q .f 4 f Q f , 'J 46, gan, A H, ,I IK - .x fn-H. N 5 A A Q --- A x ,hw I, if Je .

Though we did not finish in first place yet we gained the admiration of the entire association, besides many visitors, because of the true sportsmanship shown and our ability in this line of athletics. Notwithstanding the fact that this year's team was exceedingly light, through the stellar coaching of Mr. Brown and the spirit with which every member of the squad took hold of the work we succeeded in landing third place, after having completed the most difficult schedule of the tournament. One of the most noteworthy facts of the season's work was the excellent leadership of Captain Lidle. Besides the tournament Bradley's pre-tourna- ment schedule was a huge success from every standpoint. During the season we met some of the best teams in the state and defeated them. Bradley scored 441 points to her opponents 378. We received one place on the coaches all- state selections, that in the person of Art Graham at forward on the second team. Now let us review the season's work: Of the I8 games played we won I3 and lost 5. Three of this number were lost abroad. On Dec. Ilth Bradley met Hedding College of Abingdon and defeated them by the score of 31 to 22. Then followed the Christmas holidays, through which the entire squad kept up constant practice. On Saturday evening, on the 9th of january, our team overwhelmingly defeated Illinois State Normal by the score of 32 to I6. The following Saturday night Illinois College of Jacksonville were our opponents. The second string of men were played the entire first half and put up a wonder- ful game of basket ball. They succeeded in holding the downstate representa- tives 5 to 5. ln the succeeding half the entire first team was played and though they had not been in long enough to get sufficiently warmed up, yet they did not play up to their usual form. As a result when the gun finally went off, Illinois was leading I6 to I3. On the next Friday and Saturday Bradley took her first trip, to Abingdon and Calesburg. Playing I-ledding to a standstill, but handicapped by the size of the floor, I-ledding succeeded in winning by the close score of 2I to I8. On the next evening Bradley came back strong, and at home on the spacious Lombard floor we handed the Calesburg college lads a severe drubbing. The final score stood 32 to 20 in our favor. On the first Friday evening in February Eureka College quintet was downed decisively by the Red and White, 29 to I9. The next week we met William and Vashti College of Aledo, and remember- ing the last time that the representatives of the two schools had met, Bradley turned the tables and dealt them a good beating, the final score standing 22 to I4. On the following Tuesday afternoon the representatives of james Millikin University visited Peoria, intent on victory. However, they were very much disappointed when at the finish of the game the score was 27 to 23 in our favor. Page one-hundred eighteen On Saturday evening, the 13th of February, the Terrible Swedes from Augustana were our opponents. This was undoubtedly the most exciting game of the year. With 3 points behind and a minute and a half to play, two baskets in quick succession by Graham and Capt. Lidle brought home the bacon for B. P. l. The score, when the smoke had cleared away, stood 31 to 30 in our favor. It now looked as tho Bradley would have at least three men on All-State selections. Capt. Lidle was playing his usual stellar game, Allen, Nelson, Graham and .Iacquin were playing far better than any time during the season. On the following Friday and Saturday Bradley met her first real reverse of the season. On Friday they lost to William and Vashti, 26 to l8, due to the slippery Aledo floor. The next evening Bradley received a swamping at the hands of Augustana, 44 to I6. Allen and Nelson displayed their real form here. On the following Tuesday evening we played our last scheduled game before the tournament. St. Louis University were our opponents. Bradley won this game by the'close score of I9 to IS. Then came the week of training just preceding the tournament. Every member of the squad took hold and did his share of the work. At four o'clock Thursday afternoon, March 4th, Bradley again met l-ledding and playing a sensational game defeated the up-state college 25 to l2. The fol- lowing evening at 8 o'clock before the greatest crowd ever assembled at an l. I. A. A. Tournament, or rather in the history of Bradley, we fell before Millikin University amid constant cheering, by the score of 29 to 22. This was without a doubt the fastest game staged during the entire tournament. With the huge score against us by the Blue and White in the first half, the Bradley boys came back strong and within almost winning distance when our opponents picked up and increased their lead sufficiently to win. The same evening at I0 o'clock we again played I-ledding and clearly proved our superiority by defeating them 29 to 3. At 3 o'clock Saturday afternoon we met Illinois College, who had defeated us once during the season. However, we succeeded in getting revenge and came back, beating them decisively 28 to l7. That evening at 7 o'clock we played Wesleyan University and succeeded in winning by the close score of 27 to 24. At 9 o'clock the same evening we played for third place against William 8: Vashti, and won I8 to 8. Thus Bradley succeeded in winning third place in the I. I. A. A. Tourna- ment, the largest and most successful ever held in the history of the Associa- tion. Under the management of Don Strauch, Mr. Brown, and Mr. Bikle, besides the able help extended by the girls' athletic association, Fred Ticknor, and the gigantic auto parade under the management of Bill Parker, Bradley created a name for herself that will be hard to tear down. Page one-hundred nine! Another very noticeable fact was the true sportsmanship shown by Aug- ustana both here and there. It seems as tho some sort of good feeling exists between these two schools not noticeable among the others. All during the tournament the loyal Rock Island rooters could be heard pulling for Bradley. So, taking as a whole, look and see if you do not agree with the rest of us in claiming that this has been the most wonderfully successful season in the his- tory of the school. Much credit is due to lVlr. Brown, who by his wonderful coaching ability, built a leading team from seemingly very little. Another worthy of Credit was Capt. Lidle. who had much to do towards making the team what it was. However, let us not forget the rest, Art Graham, Art Nelson, Bill Allen, Mgr. Bill jacquin, Bob Wallace, Fred Schauss, Don Strauch, Phil Becker, john Williams, Leonard Putnam, and Crip Lowes. Likewise, many thanks are extended to the student body for the hearty support which they gave the team, during the past season. Arthur Nelson, 'l6, has been elected to captain next year's team, and we wish to assure him the heartiest support and co-operation of the entire student body. Five men received their letters, namely, Capt. Lidle, Mgr. Bill jacquin, Nelson, Allen and C-raham, and two men their sweaters, Nelson and C-raham. WINTER BASKET BALL LEAGUE The winter basket ball league was won by the team captained by Don Strauch and consisting of Hayward and Hildebrandt, forwards: Strauch, center, and Osborne and Bryant, guards. They finished the schedule without a single defeat. Page one-hundred twenty .4 I 6 'W l i l l 1 I 1 W I , I 1,1 rf- I 81.44, wth 5 CZ! 'ZF' 'J u7 9fL'f' . 'XAIILA-4 W D 5 ' . 1 W . QYB Y-ij' hug!

They have played five games and have lost but one. That one to Eureka College by the score of 3 to l. The team has yet three games to play and they should have no trouble in win- ning them. At the very outset things looked rosy for a championship team. Schwartz was elected manager, but resigned and his position was given to Tom Ireland. Art Graham was elected captain and has certainly made a good one. The regular team is composed of John Williams, of football fame, catcher: Dolies and Lidle, pitchers: lreland, first-base: DuBoff, second-base: Hudka, short-stop: Overstreet, third-base, Capt. Graham, left field: Bleucher, center field and I-Iildabrandt, right field. Besides we have two able substitutes, lVlcCaslin, catcher and infielder, and Ticknor, first-base. The first game was April the l6th at home with Illinois College as our opponents. Bradley easily won this game, I2 to 3. The first home run of the season was made in this game by Hildabrandt, our new right fielder. Dolies and Lidle pitched and at all times had the down state boys at their mercy. On the 23rd of April, Lombard came to Peoria and received a good trounc- ing. Lidle pitched the entire game and at no time was it in danger. Bradley easily won, II to l. On the following Saturday the team took its first trip to Eureka. Here they met their first defeat of the season. It was a very close game and Eureka finally succeeded in winning 3 to l. Dolies was in the box with Williams receiving. On April the 29th Wesleyan came here and were defeated in a loosely played but exciting game. Getting a four run lead in the first frame it looked bad for our team but some real hitting was shown in the inning and seven runs gave us a lead by a good margin. ln this frame Hildabrandt duplicated his feat of the first game by driving a home run into deep left center, this time with the bases full. Overstreet also scored a homer later in the game. The final score was I7 to ll in our favor. Lidle and Williams were the batteries. On Saturday the lst of May the team took its second trip. They succeeded in winning a ten inning contest, 6 to 5, from Normal. Overstreet was easily the star. He slammed out four hits out of five times to the plate. At the present time things certainly look hopeful for a championship team. The coaching of Mr. Brown and the ability with which every player plays the game has gained the admiration of everyone who has witnessed them play.

Page one-hundred thirty COLLEGE TRACK Track is again in full sway at Bradley. Everything is fast coming into shape for the Intercollegiate and this year's team promises to be a winner. Our proof for this is because of the ability of our track men. Capt. Strauch, whose ability is already known to Bradley students, will probably again be seen in the hurdles, the dashes, and pole vault. Then in the mile and half-mile we have a wonderful runner, in the person of Bob Wallace, of Cleveland, Ohio. In the Illinois College meet he ran the mile in 4:49. This is marvelous time considering the fact that he was not pushed and because of the sharp angles of the track. We are expecting him to win this event in the Intercollegiate. Besides this he is a fast man in the half and relay. Also, we have Woodrow in the weights, and now another new man, one of football fame, Homer Fetzer. Fetz is a very good man in weights, high and broad jump and we are expecting something from him. Bryant and Makutchan are with us again in the quarter and dashes. Some other good men are: Putnam, Ewalt, I-Iouse, slacquin, Champion, and Smith. Manager jordan, together with the aid of Mr. Brown and Coach Martin are working unusually hard with the prospects of the most successful Intercollegiate meet ever held. The first college meet of the year was held Saturday, May lst with Illinois College at Jacksonville. Though we did not win, yet some very surprising things developed from it. That of the fast time made by Wallace in the mile and excellent showing of Woodrow, Fetzer and Capt. Strauch. The final score stood 65 to 39 in favor of Illinois College. On Saturday the 8th we meet Wesleyan and on the 22nd is the Inter- collegiate. With this year's team Bradley will be a very strong contender for the Intercollegiate trophy, but nevertheless whether or not we win, much praise is due to Coach Walter Martin and Mr. Brown, who, with the co-operation of the student body, have made so successful a track season for Bradley.

ACADEMY TRACK For the Hrst time in a number of years Bradley Academy track team did not win the Interscholastic. However, they finished sixth. Capt. Bryant was easily the star. His admirable work in the quarter mile and relay certainly is worthy of praise. Arthur Graham, and Putnam, with Ewalt, Miller and Meyers in distance runs also showed some class. In a dual meet with Manual the Academy won by the large score of 62 to 39. Capt. Bryant and Putnam were the stars here. Bryant scored I8 points and a first in the relay, while Putnam scored two Firsts, a second and was a member of the winning relay team. This totaled I3 points. On May I5 comes the Greater Peoria, and Bradley will without a doubt win. lt is chiefly from this Academy team the College team in the future is formed.

The team captained by Art. Graham and consisting of Woodward, Luke, Klepinger, Kent, Traviis, Mahle, Borland, Doubet, Aukland and Osborne were the victors. This game has made quite an impression upon the lovers of sport, and will be undertaken on a far larger scale next year. TENNIS The annual tennis tournament will undoubtedly be won by Walter Lidle and he will probably represent Bradley in the singles, with Art Graham, the runner up, in the doubles against Millikin the 7th of May and Intercollegiate tournament the Zlst and 22nd of that month. Under the splendid management of Robert Clark, the courts were in excellent condition for an early date. The winner of the Intercollegiate tournament will probably be the winner of the Bradley-Millil-:in match here.

P- IE 0ll8'hU A n red fort y-one GIRLS' ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION One more live wire in the school's activities has been the revived, Girls' Athletic Association. This fact is mainly due to our worthy president, Miss M riin Mackemer and our most adored gym teacher, Miss Helen Lager- quist. The officers are: President, Marian Mackemer: Vice president, Marie Strehlow: Secretary-Treasurer, Dorothy Beecher. First and foremost in the year's achievements was the more than success- ful vaudeville and banquet. This affair was attended by the largest crowd of girls in the history of the school. Each class endeavored to outdo the other in their stunts and necessarily this resulted in a howling success. The vaude- ville was only exceded by the wonderful things to eat and the dancing which made up the remainder of the evening's entertainment. But the height of our glory was reached in the financial scheme which we floated during the basket ball tournament, namely the cafeteria. Heretofore this had been an unheard of proceeding in the annals of Bradley Athletics and thanks are due to the loyal members of the association and the voluntary ser- vices of Miss Kuhl. As every other thing which the Athletic Association has undertaken this year, it was a bounding success, and the marvelous sum of forty dollars was cleared. But enough of the successes which appear on the surface. Our basket ball teams are fast outclasting those of the opposite sex. There are eight teams, the captains of which are: I. Janet Phelan. 5. Georgina Zimmermann. 2. Evangeline Lovett 6. Annette Seeling. 3. Adeline Wyatt. 7. Georgia Doty. 4. Mae Kohn. 8. Ethel Bunnell. After many hard, stiff fights Kohn and Doty tied for championship. Num- erals will be awarded to the 8 members of their respective teams at the crowning event of the year, a banquet followed by a dance. Baseball, too, has been revived and also volley ball. Thirty of our most athletic girls have.signed up for what promises to be a very exciting tennis tournament. The champion of this year's play is to play Miss Adeline Wyatt for the championship of the school. In closing we would like to express our profoundest thanks to our live gym teacher and our appreciation for what she has endeavored to do for us in the past year.

Mr. Bob Chester, in love with Miss Gibson, carries as his inseparable companion, an umbrella. I-le always carries it under his arm, point forward and toward the ground, much to the annoyance of Miss Gibson. First scene is between Polly and Mr. Chester who has come to call on Miss Georgina but finds her our. Polly encourages him to remain and they begin to talk of Polly's sweetheart, a certain Wm. Blackbeer, who is so tall, according to Polly, that they will have a hard time finding an apartment with a ceiling high enough. Mr. Bob teases Polly about her lover and finally promises to build a house with rooms high enough. Polly tells him that Miss Georgina loves him but he thinks that is not possible. Miss Georgina finally returns and begins to torment Mr. Bob about his umbrella and the lovers quarrel. Mr. Bob leaves the house and apparently forgets his umbrella much to the consternation of the two women. Polly is heartbroken, fearing that she will now never be able to marry Wm. Blackbeer. Miss Gibson repents her harshness and at this point Mr. Bob reappears, having carried off Miss Gibson's umbrella by mistake. A reconcilliation takes place and Polly is overjoyed and Miss Georgina promises to hold the umbrella of her husband in profound respect hereafter. 3.5 P hddfil W, . I I Y. W. C. A. AND Y. M. C. A.

On Friday evening, April 16, l9l5 Bradley, for the first time in three years, won their annual intercollegiate debate upon the question, Resolved, that Labor Unions should be exempt from,the Sherman Anti-Trust Law fConstitutionally waivedjf' The contest was the first of a series of five debates to be held between Bradley and Augustana and gives us an excellent start upon the series. The affirmative side which was upheld by Bradley presented their arguments in a clear, forceful manner and succeeded in winning all three of the judges to their side of the argument The success of the team was largely due to the efficient training of Coach Craper, who with unceasing efforts, trained his team for many weeks in the effective presentation of their arguments and to his efforts were due the result of the debate. The affirmative side of the question was upheld by Holland Roberts, Linn Covey and Captain Ralph G. Sucher, while the Augustana team was composed of joseph Horblitt, Luther Bensen and Truman Searle, who did ample justice to their side of the question. The judges who rendered the decision were: Mr. C. TW. Gaylor, Superintendent of Schools, Canton, Ill., Prof. H. McMurray, President of Lincoln College, Lincoln, lll., and Mr. B. E. Decker, County Superintendent of Schools, Macomb, Ill. BRADLEY ACADEMY-PEORIA HIGH DEBATE. The second annual debate between the Bradley Academy and Peoria High School will take place on the evening of May 28, l9I5, in Bradley Chapel. At the present writing we are unable to give the decision of the judges, but feel safe in saying that this year the Bradley orators will reverse the table and bring home the large end of the contest. Bradley will be represented by Edgar Strause, Brainard Hatch and Rudloph Schmidt who are all new at the game, but who, as you probably know by now, have been trained into efficient debaters by the work of Coach Graper. The question to be discussed is as follows: Resolved, That the Federal Government should own and operate the rail- roads of the United States. ln the debate Bradley will argue for the negative side of the question and Peoria High the affirmative. 1 N t - 1 1 ' on , , Q QQ fCffCyfxdXf,fL '1x, ' .f'01f T,5'zf1fLf.4fIf'rLf1VCfcff1l..

I don't know why it is. Fellows aren't that way. But girls like like to be exclusive. They like to establish a precedent, and set a style and have all the other girls pattern after 'em. Even the nicest, kindest ones will do it and sometimes not even realize how badly they make other girls feel. Once in a long while there's a girl with too jolly much good-sense to want all that tommy-rot-and she's the kind of a girl this story is about. My folks live in a little city of about twenty-five thousand. Maisie and l went to the high school there last year and graduated. There were about eighty in our senior class and fifty of 'em were girls. We fellows managed our side all right and didn't bother about social distinction. The fellows that were good in athletics and were good all-around men were liked whether they had money, family or what not. But with the girls it was different. My sister Maisie and about a dozen others whose families are the wealthiest in town belonged to what was called The Upper Bunch. Pretty rotten name, isn't it? I never thought much about it till Joan said so-but l'm getting ahead of my story. To tell the truth, the girls weren't altogether responsible for the name. There had been an Upper Bunch in the high school for years. At first when the high school was new, it had just meant all the girls in the senior class, but after a while it got to be a set of girls who established themselves as the most exclusive group, those who would be in the society of the town after they graduated and came out. It was the hope of every freshman, sopho- more and junior to be in the Upper Bunch when she got to be a senior, for that Upper Bunch certainly had one swell time. They got all the important offices of the class or as many as they wanted. They had enough money among them to have far more elaborate affairs than the other girls. They had all the nicest fellows in the school to take 'em places. I'll have to admit that's one place where we fellows are almost as big snobs as girls. We didn't like to be seen with any girl who didn't belong to the Upper Bunch, although there were plenty of other nice girls to take around. So you see, the Upper Bunch had everything coming its way. As I said, there were about fifty senior girls and eleven of them, to be exact, were Upper Bunchersf' The rest of them were sort of grouped around the way they would, you know. Sometimes other bunches had tried to form as rivals to the Up- per Bunchn but they couldn't hold out. The Upper Bunch had been estab- lished too long and had all the girls from the best families. It was pretty tough on the rest of 'em, not having a chance unless their folks were promi- nent socially. But things had gone on that way a long time and would probably be continuing if joan Leslie hadn't come. Page one-hundred sixly-l 1 -1 l I l joan was a senator's daughter and when it got around that she was coming to our town and stay with her grandmother while her folks went to Europe, all the girls wondered if she would go to high school. And when it was found that she would, and was going to enter as a senior, the Upper Bunch got ready to receive her with open arms. They were up at our house and Maisie was entertaining them in the library and I was in Dad's den that opens right off. ,Iiminy Christmas! It was fierce, the racket they made, but Icouldn't get out without going through the library, so I stayed on trying to do Math. She'll probably have wonderful clothes, I heard Laura Reed say. You can always tell Laura by her drawl. Her mother was a Kentucky belle and Laura can't ever forget it. Why our things will simply look like rags besides hers. I've got to get some new things before she comes or I'll feel awful. That's Mary Louise Finch. Well let's plan what stunts we'll have when she comes. We want her to get acquainted right away, said Maisie. They discussed parties and luncheons, and I heard 'em planning a dance for another half hour. Then they went to the dining room for eats and I got out while I could. joan came the next week. We heard that she had chosen to come to her grandmother's and go to a high school rather than an exclusive boarding school in the east, and I knew why when I saw her. She wasn't exactly pretty but she had jolly a nice smile and big, grey eyes. She wore her hair down her back in a thick braid and she had plain sensible clothes for school, though I gathered that they were smart and stylish when I heard Mary Louise say, Did you ever see such perfect tailoring? They must have come from a New York house. She wasn't one bit affected and you'd never know her father was senator unless some one else had told you. Well, the Upper Bunch rushed ,Ioan and she seemed favorable. We fel- lows met her at the dance and liked her from the first. Say! she could dance swell. And she could talk too-not the vivacious kind like Mary Louise, just jolly and sensible you know. I had three dances with her and we got pretty well acquainted. It was at the middle of the third one that we sat down to talk. All of a sudden she asked with a queer expression in her grey eyes: Mr. Hollander, why are the girls here called the Upper Bunchu? Well, I don't know what I answered. The way she put it I felt sort of ashamed that they were called by that name, and yet she was just asking a simple question without the least suggestion of a criticism about it. But she saw how it fussed me and began talking of something else in a minute. I liked her for that. It was about a month after she'd come, that I first got the drift of how things were going. It seemed that ,Ioan didn't restrict her new friendships Page one-hundred sixty-lhaee to the Upper Bunch class. Now it was some sort of unwritten rule that the girls in the upper bunch couldn't go around with the girls outside. You see how it would be. If a girl outside got intimate with an Upper Bunch girl, the outsider might get identified with the Upper Bunch which would be awkward all around. So when ,Ioan made up with other girls in her friendly way, the Upper Bunch didn't like it. I was at the same table in the library one day with ,Ioan and Laura Reed. We'd been laughing and cutting up awhile-the three of us -and then the librarian called us down so I moved to the other end of the table and began studying Math. I had a con. to work off if I wanted to play basket ball. But pretty soon I caught Laura's soft drawl: Don't you like our bunch, dear? WhyKyes, Laura, Joan answered in her straightforward way. That is, I like the girls. The way she said it seemed to puzzle Laura. What do you mean by that? she asked. ,Ioan hesitated a minute. Then she started in with what I thought sound- ed like determination. I think it was mighty sweet of you girls to take me in, and I like all of you. I hope you won't think it's impertinent and rude in me to criticize but since you ask me-I mean that the Upper Bunch, you call it Cshe said the name with evident distastej not the girls, but the Bunch you know is oh! so dreadfully exclusive. I know Laura winced. I did too. It was putting it so frankly. How- ever Laura didn't get offended. She probably would had it been anyone but ,Ioan Leslie, the daughter of a senator. But it's just the custom you know, Laura defended rather weakly, It's been handed down for years. Yes, answered ,Ioan slowly, so I have heard. And you girls with wealth and social prominence have made it so attractive that everyone else envies you. You have all the power of the Senior class. Yet no one can belong but a select few. And you pass it down to another select few. No one else has a chance. It doesn't seem fair, now does it? But the others aren't in our-our class. The Upper Bunch girls are the daughters of parents who are friends and go in the same society. Naturally we are friends, too. We can't be friends with people who don't appeal to us. What can we do? Do? cried .Ioan with a flash of enthusiasm. Why! don't make your bunch so prominent. Don't have that horrid name. Don't keep off by your- selves so much. Why there are lots of lovely girls who don't have any show at all in the social life of the school just because they aren't the daughters of your parents' friends. Oh! Laura, dear, what's the use to be so exclusive and make other people feel so insignificant when they really aren't. Don't have any Upper Bunch. Why can't all the senior girls be one big bunch? Pile one-hundred sixty-four 1 l 1 1 I 4 1 l sl I i J i -'-1-ni To tell you the truth, l guses I was about as stunned as Laura. The idea of not having an Upper Bunch had never occurred to me. It hadn't to the girls either. It was there when they got there. By luck, they had been born into it so to speak and l don't suppose they had considered how it would feel to be out of it. They just accepted it as their right and passed it on. But the more I thought of what ,Ioan had said, the more it seemed to me that the Upper Bunch wasn't fair. The Upper Bunch was really a sort of royalty or nobility. Their position, the duaghters of best families made them the ruling faction of the class. And this was existing in a democratic high school. ,loan Leslie had certainly dropped a bomb in the midst of the Upper Bunch. lt seemed queer for an outsider to come in and try to break up a society that had existed for years. And yet when you look at it right, that is just what needed to be done-to have someone from outside come in and show them how it looked. But you can't blame the girls in the Upper Bunch for not wanting it broken up. They were a jolly crowd and they had a lot of fun. And they hadn't joan's view point. To be brief, ,Ioan's suggestion wasn't received with enthusiasm: But joan didn't do any more about it. She just continued to be in the Upper Bunch and to have friends outside. The winter term passed and spring came. The girls were getting ready for commencement and wondering if ,Ioan Leslie would graduate with them. Along in March she got word that her father and mother were back from Europe, but had business in New York and she should stay on with her grandmother and finish her year of high school. The girls and joan both seemed satisfied. Every spring the senior class has a big party. It is supposed to be for good fellowship, though there wasn't much of it shown there. The Upper Bunch mostly had charge of committees and such, dividing up with us boys. They had dancing for entertainment. The Upper Bunch danced well so their programs were full, but the others stood around and took their chance. But joan was chairman of committees for our class party and I was willing to stake my reputation in basket ball that she'd get the others in for a good time, too. And she did. She planned that class party with all the ardor and skill she possessed. I know that. She wanted the whole senior class to be one big bunch andl know she meant to make a valiant effort to draw them all together at that party. She persuaded them to have a banquet with toasts and speeches after- wards and later games besides the dancing. She worked likeaTrojan getting everything ready. The day for the party came. It was Saturday. About noon ,Ioan called up. She was awfully excited. I answered the phone. Oh, Ted, she cried, Father and mother are coming through this after- noon on their way to Washington. They leave on the nine-thirty train to-night. You see I'Il just have to stay home from the banquet. Page one-hundred sixty-fivs Not on your life, I said, Bring 'em along. But, Ted, parents aren't invited. Yours is a senator and everyone'll be tickled to death to see him,', Cl was toastmaster and I had a sudden inspirationj He can give a speech. I need an extra one. Oh, Ted, I don't think it would ever do, she argued, but kind of weak. She wanted to go to the banquet like everything. Yes it will. You bring 'em along. I suppose-well, can I call for you just the same. l'll just be chauffer and not interfere with the family reunion. Of course, you can. Well-I'll bring them, she said. That's how we happened to have a senator at our senior banquet last year. The rest of what happened was brought about probably as a result of ,Ioan's longing and hard work, and Fate helping her along. ,Ioan looked mighty pretty that night. She was everywhere at once, and introducing everyone to her parents who seemed just as nice and unaffected as their daughter. The Upper Bunch seemed quite elated, probably because joan belonged to their bunch and so they thought papa and mamma were their special guests. I thought it was rather a bad move when I heard Joan say to Laura: Oh Laura, I wish all the senior girls were more united. Laura was glowing like a' rose. Meeting senators and the like seemed to stimulate her. She turned to ,Ioan with a condescending smile. My dear child, you're such a democratic little goosie. It would never do. We belong where we are, by our birth and training. We can't mix with the rest. By the way, isn't your father a democrat? I think he's mostly socialist, said joan with a funny smile. Laura just stared at that. Supper was over at 7:30 and we wanted to finish the toasts by 8:30 so the dancing and games could begin at 9:00. I had asked Senator Leslie to make a speech, and he said he would, as obliging as could be. I kept that for the last. The others were toasts to Athletic men and the faculty and the clubs. At last Senator Leslie got up to speak. He was such a nice, kind-looking man. I wondered what he'd talk about but when he told us, it went through me like a shock. He was going to speak of school democracy. I shot one look at ,Ioan but she had glanced up with such a glad, surprised expression that I knew she hadn't put him wise. Then I settled down and enjoyed that talk. He didn't make it long. It was just a simple appeal for all us young bloods on whom rested the future of the country, to stand by the principles of our democratic nation. He made us feel the gloriousness of our country's creed, equality. He said that in no other land did such an equality exist-in the old world they WCIC held down by the thraldom of class distinction and race pre- Page one-hundred slxly-si!! judices. And the old world was pouring forth into the new where all these false distinctions did not exist, where man stood, not on birth and noble blood, but on his own efforts. But he said it depended on the younger generation, on our school life, as to whether our country's ideals would be perfected or not. I-le quoted something about the larger heart and kindlier hand, and then some more about the whole fraternity of man. Oh, young men and women, he ended earnestly, Your country needs you to cherish and protect her ideals of democracy. Break down all barriers of social distinction, all old prejudices of birth and rank. Strive for brotherly love, for a broad understanding and sympathy. The whole universe is marching on towards the brotherhood of man. Well, I don't know how the rest felt, but it sort of choked me. It made me feel all patriotic and proud of my big, grand country that was going to give everyone an equal chance. It made me long to get out and do things to create social equality. I seemed to just burn with a feeling of love for everyone. And then I knew that his speech was over and I had to get up and wind up the toasts. Then I took joan and her father and mother to the station. joan was just radiant. I guess she sort of felt what her father's speech had done. When ,joan and I got back, the dancing and games had begun. But there was some sort of tense feeling in the air. Nobody could forget that grand talk, I guess. And I sensed that something was going to happen. Well you see, it just had to. The Upper Bunch had been having a discussion all evening. I could tell that. In between dances two or three would get together and talk in low, but excited tones. ,Ioan stayed clear away from them but she looked just happy and confident. Then just before the last dance, they all called Joan and told her something and when she turned around I knew joan's wish had come true. There is an announcement to be made, cried joan, clapping her hands to get everyone's attention. It got so still you could hear a pin drop. Then Maisie stepped up beside joan. I think what Senator Leslie said about democracy has made a great impression on us all, she began. We all know that such a democracy hasn't existed in our high school, and we all know why. I am to tell you that the Upper Bunch is willing to sacrifice its society to democracy. There isn't going to be an Upper Bunch any more. We want all the senior girls to be one big bunch. A perfect storm of applause followed. You can bet the faculty was glad. And as was everyone else. In about two minutes every girl was hugging every other girl and even the fellows got carried away with excitement and shook hands like mad. It isn't often that high school kids are gripped by such a feeling as we had that night. It seemed like a beginning and an ending with all the joy of human kindness mixed in. I'll never forget it. So that's how joan Leslie broke up the Upper Bunch and established sister love, where only snobbishness and envy had been before. Page one-hundred sixty-seven PROGRESS I come from the deep of the ages asleep, On the sweep of eternity's tide. On the surge of the waves I ride. ln the wrath of the storm I hide. I come from the past to oblivion cast, That is fast in the years that have Hed. I live by the thrill of the hearts that are still, And the will of the men that are dead. l fostered the birth of the nations of earth, From the dearth of the tribes of men. I gave them of light through the darkness of night, By the might of the sword and pen. I straightened the ways where they wandered in maze, To the rays of the light they yearned. I counted the wage they earned. I hoarded the truths they spurned. I cast up the lore of the sages of yore, On the shore where the future was throned. I bartered the sigh of an epoch gone by. For the cry of a prophet disowned. I have toiled o'er the sod where your footsteps have trod. And the clod that your shares have tilled. I have fashioned the scroll of the life ye unroll, Toward the goal of a dream fulfilled. l have given ye meat and of plenty ye eat, Ye are fleet on the steeds ye ride. Ye are masters of wind and tide. Ye have swung to a giant's stride. And my song was the law of the breath that ye draw, Ere ye saw in the tablet of stone, The word that ye hold was in thunder unrolled, Of old from the Sinain throne. I have planted your field and the wealth of its yield, Will be sealed in the sheaves ye bring. For the sowing of seed that ye harvest at need, Give me heed to the song I sing. The seasons and centuries surge, Like the waves of an ocean wide, And in ebb or in How they are cast to and fro, In the heave of the restless tide: And they each have a task to fulfill, Ere their moment of being is past, And they turn to the deep and are cradled to sleep, In oblivion's bosom at last. They rage at the bulwarks of time. They shout from his caverned shore. And they gather and rush over cliffs that they crush, 'Till he offers defiance no more, Page one-hundred sixty-eight ia S 4 ! F I I K IH 1 While elsewhere they build him anew, A temple of mightier mold, But the fabric of stone that they claim for their own. Has been wrought from the wreck of the old. As ye see the first rays of the morn, On the hills to the westward thrown, As the husbandman sees all awave in the breeze, His grain ere the seed be sown. So the face of the future is bright, And the past's wrinkled Visage is grim, Though he hides in his store all the cumulous lore, That the ages have brought to him, And the wealth that he hoards is rich, As the glint of a miser's gold, For all that is old is new, 'And all that is new is old. Ye have bought and have sold with the glitter of gold, That ye rolled from the grip of the rocks. Ye are rich in your herds and flocks. Ye have weathered the tempest's shocks. Ye have harrowed the land that I gave to your hand, Ye have fanned out the chaff from your grain Ye have melted the heel of your mountains to steel, And the feel of your blades is pain. Ye have fettered the hands of the waters and lands, And as bands of your slaves they toil. Ye have seized for your war on the thunders of Thor, And ye tore from his lightnings a foil. I have fashioned ye strong for your conflict with wrong, And the throng of temptations ye meet. I have tempered your steel with defeat. I have graded the paths to your feet. I have taught ye of craft 'till ye balance your raft, On the waft of the idle air. I have made ye secure of the risks ye endure, From the lure of the deeds ye dare. I have charted the deep that your sea-coursers sweep, And ye reap of the lives I save. I have taught ye the skill of the places ye fill, 'Till ye thrill to the dangers ye brave. Page one-hundred sixty- I have wrought ye in flame, I have tried ye with shame, And the blame of your deeds I have borne. I have mended the rents ye have torn. I have suffered the scourge of your scorn. I have taught ye the might of the prescient light, That is bright in the eyes that lirst Have dared to see far through the portals ajar, Past the bar that the spirit has burst. And my law is a light for the gloom of your night, To the might of its justice ye cling. By the right of each deed that has succored your need, Cive me heed to the song I sing. The rulers of earth are new, But the laws of the earth are old, And will compass the range of the years of change, 'Till the fulness of time is told. Ye can build in what manner ye will, But your fabric will fall to the Haw. Ye may think to do wrong by the right of the strong, But ye cannot evade the law. Ye n'ay hold up its wisdom to scorn, Ye mock at the might of its breath, But its truth will outlive any slur you can give, For the wages of sin is death. The nations have governed the earth, In the might of their power and pride, Whom the wrath of the world to destruction hath hurled, For the law that they cast aside. The kings of the earth have built, On the dust where their fathers slept, And have muttered their braves on the turf-sodded graves, Where the wars of their sires have swept. The fabric of earth is old, And the dust on its altars is deep. Will ye boastingly sing of the wisdom ye bring, Nor remember the law ye keep? For the law shall forever endure, And your children shall bow to its rod, In obedience meet till they climb to the feet Of its maker and judge and Cod. -MARK LANGDON ROWELL.

BRADLEY had been in session just alittle over a week and Betty Stansfield who was a Freshman, was just becoming acquainted with the ways of Bradley life. Betty was a very charming little girl but during her first days at this strange and busy place, her bashfulness and timidity had the better of her. She had spied the girls' Bulletin Board and had learned from an older Bradleyite that it was the place where the notices and invitations were posted. It was one of Betty's wildest hopes that some time she too might find a note there for her--an invitation to some party or other. During the noon-hour on this particular day as she passed the Bulletin Board, Betty looked at the names on the notes, not dreaming of finding one with her name on it, but just wishing that someday she too, might have the honor of receiving one. But look! Am I dreaming or am I really seeing my wish come true, she said to herself as she spied among several others, an envelope on which was written a name that looked strangely familiar to her. Surely, it did read B-e-t-t-y S-t-a-n-s-f-i-e-I-d. That was just the way she spelt her name and she was sure that there was no one else with that very same name at Bradley Surely, it must be for her, she decided, so took it down, her heart filled with joy to think that her secret hope had come to a realization so soon. No, she would not open it right then because there were other girls around and she wanted to enjoy it by herself first. Betty tucked it in her English book that she happened to be carrying and walked down to the other end of the hall where there as not a soul around. Here she could read her precious note. She gently tore open the sealed envelope, and while she did so, she wondered which of her many day-dreams would in a moment be a reality. But horrors! She read: Bradley Polytechnic Institute. Sept. 25, I9I4. Miss Betty Stansfield, please call at my office, today. The Dean of Women. The poor child's hope, pleasure and pride were crushed. She was siezed with fear and distress. What had she done that was wrong, she asked of her- self. She had been there every day, had never been late, had never missed chapel, had never skipped any classes, and further more had known her lessons. Oh, what can it be? she kept repeating to herself. The bell rang and it was time for her to go to English class. There she could not get her thoughts on the lesson but was still wondering and fearing what was in store for her at the dean's oflice. She knew the Dean only by Page one-hundred seve ty I cl 1? II il ll . I I II il Q! ,.i li Q, EU -I I 'I I I I Q I I I - Lili sight but had heard that she was the one who did the scolding when anything went wrong. Oh dear, if she only could think of what she had done or what she had not done that she should have. I-Ier thoughts were going over the different days and recalling the happenings when she heard the teacher say Miss Stansfieldf' She had not heard the question and too timid to ask to have it repeated, said I don't know. It was Betty's first failure and it was all she could do to keep back the tears. It seemed as if everything was going wrong and all because of that note. Finally after what seemed like hours, the bell rang and the class was dismissed. In the hall Betty met a Senior girl whom she knew and admired very much. To her Betty told her troubles and showed her the note. The worst of it is that I simply can't think of doing anything that I shouldn't have, said Betty. Are you sure that you haven't skipped chapel, or any of your classes, or study hall? asked the senior. After a negative shake of the head on Betty's part, the Senior replied. Well, I myself don't see what it can be about, but you just go to the Dean's ofhce and keep a firm upper lip. Don't be afraid of her. She won't eat you. Really she'll be quite pleasant. The senior returned the notice to Betty and as she was leaving, called back, You'll get used to that after a short time. Don't be afraid. We all live thru it. Betty made up her mind to go then and get it over with. She could not stand the strain any longer. She went to the door, which had printed on the glass in black letters, Dean of Women and read the card on which was printed the Dean's hours. Yes, she was in. She went into the outer office and heard a voice from the adjoining room say, Come in. Poor Betty was all a tremble but she mustered up courage, walked in, and there sat the Dean at her desk. I-low do you do, said the Dean. Did-did you want to see me? asked Betty. Yes, yes, just be seated a moment and then I will attend to you, was the answer. Attend to me, thought Betty. Oh, mercy me, if I only knew what I have done, it wouldn't be half so bad. The tears began to come and she could feel them trickling down her cheeks. Then she remembered the last words of her beloved Senior, Don't be afraid. We all live thru it. With this thought she braced up and hastily turned her head and wiped her eyes so that the Dean might not know. Pardon me for finishing that work, said the Dean. Now Iet's see. What is your name? Betty Stansfleldf' said Betty, in as natural a tone as she could command. Oh yes, I remember, said the Dean, picking up a piece of paper on which was a list of names. I wanted to know if you would mind changing from Sewing IA to Sewing IC. You see IA is so large and we want to even the classes up as much as possible. Page one-hundred seventy-three Betty gave a sigh of relief as she consented to the Dean's request, because it was so different from what she had really expected and the danger was im- material to her. Betty breathed much more easily when she got out of the ofhce and as she went down the stairs on her way to study-hall, she thought how true those words of the Senior were- We all live thru it. -E. IVI. 'l5. THE SENIOR LAMENT. For a cap and gown, two years we pay A small tuition day by day. Each day we try a little bluff, And thrice a year we cram on stuff, We fill notebooks with foolish lore, And decide that we know less than before. If we keep up with steady pace We gain at last the faculty's grace. They sit upon our virtues great, And scratch our name from off the slate. Senior, the word fills us up with pride. The doors of the world are open wide. We try our luck and we gain or fall- This is the outcome for Seniors-all. Little Beatrice Cole, a-standing on the walk. Beside her, Clifton Turner, shooting a line of talk. Little Beatrice Cole, planning a little coup, Lays her hand on Clifton's arm, and lets her lashes droop. Oh, I can hardly wait, the tournament to see, It's only one week off, she said with roguish glee. Oh, Clif, our little Beatrice said. and then she made a moan, l'm going to see that tournament, if I have to go alone. Her eyes looked into his, those eyes of darkest brown, They seemed to say, Come on, you cannot turn me down. That's all there is to tell, for what else could he do, But bravely smile and say, Sure, B., I'll go with you. -Apologies to Illinois Siren.' I'Iere's to Doc Swaim, A fellow among men, Whose purpose in life Is not money to win, But who rather has cast His lot with the stars. The glory he gains Is the knowledge that's ours. In all future years, When our thoughts backward turn. His face in our hearts, Its image shall burn. So drink to Doc Swaim, Lift your glasses on high. Drink to Doc Swaim, May his name never die. Page one-hundred :evenly-four CONVOCATION EVE. The campus now lies steeped in soft repose. Over the dusky, hardened avenue A row of street-lamps sheds a yellow light. No need has earth of sentinel or guard On such a summer's evening: it is enough That, pillowed languidly amid the clouds, Cynthia lies reclined, and smiles content: It is enough that the maple's swaying boughs Murmur drowsily that all is well. Yet, like a mighty beast with outstretched paws, A building looms thru the dusk, its massive head Surmounted by a crown of battlements: And on the right its watchful mate lies curled, Her gleaming eye surveying all that pass, And bearing patient witness of the time. And now the hour of graduation nears: Along the walk and o'er the terraced turf Come students: half a dozen boys, in step, Carolling forth with fine indifference, Made strong and jovial by their evening meal And a single hour of blessed idleness.

Mary Lou sat on a straight-backed chair, her pudgy little legs hitting back against the rounds while her little red mouth was puckered up on a stick of lemon candy. Her dark, saucer-like eyes followed the movements of her sister Lillian. That same sister was walking from bed to trunk, packing her clothes into the latter and talking in a continuous stream to hide any tremulous feelings she might have had. For Lillian was just seventeen and she was leav- ing for college in twenty-four hours. Mary Lou did not just exactly understand why her big sister had to go away to school, but mother had said it was so, and so Mary Lou accepted it in unbroken faith, and sucked contentedly on her lemon stick. At length she climb- ed down off her perch and wandered over to her sister's dresser, after the manner of children, to look things over. She reached up one chubby hand and pulled over a little grinning Billiken which carefully reached the edge of the dresser and then fell right through the baby's hands to the floor with a crash. Mary Lou turned a downcast face with trembling lips and lowered eyes to a righteously enraged sister. But little sisters and just twenty-four hours are precious, so Lillian wiped away the falling tears and chased back the coming ones with kisses and hugs. She walked over to the fallen god, picked him up tenderly Che was a gift of her first admirerb and examined him with a speculative eye and the feel of an M. D. His poor little nose was chipped off at the tip and one little fat hand was gone. But his smile was irrepressible and beamed forth as cheerily as the sun. He couldn't be mended and she couldn't take him in that condition, and so Mary Lou was cheerfully presented with the Billiken under the guise of sweet, sisterly spirit. But the real situation was lost on Mary Lou and she was happy. She pattered gaily out of the room down stairs to show Bedelia who was busily making cookies, her fat little Billiken. She came dancing her way into the kitchen and over to Bedelia with shouts of delight. She planted her little god right down on the sheetwof cake-dough that Bedelia had just rolled out-and there it stuck. Mary Lou was stunned at what she had done, and more than that she was frightened at the stormy expression gathering force on Bedelia's face. The baby backed away in quick retreat and deposited herself-in the coal bucket. Her little head was bumped and her little white apron with the yellow duckies across the bottom was torn in a dejected way right through one little duckie's neck. Bedelia rushed to the rescue and smothered the terrified screams on a motherly Irish bosom. And of course she brought out some special jam that was kept for just such occasions when pacifying was necessary. And the little god was pried up off the dough, and Mary Lou walked off with Billiken tucked under a short fat arm and an enormous slice of bread and jam clutched in one hand. Page one-hundred seventy She wandered out-doors to the back-yard and squatted down on a nice flat stone that she used to bake her pies and cakes on when her baking day came around. She was hardly seated there a minute when she heard that soul- terrifying and yet magnetic call of the bell of a fire-engine. She rushed across the back-yard to the fence, laboriously unfastened the gate, and ran as fast as her pudgy legs would take her down the alley to a cross- street and from thence down to her own street where she mingled with the fast- increasing crowd. This was the mode of procedure that she took when she didn't want mother or Bedelia to know whither she was bound. But the people running past jostled her and-the jam was getting sticky, and-what was that hard thing pressing against her side? She pulled it out- and,-why the jolly little god of Things as They Ought To Be, stared at her in a most impudent and familiar way. She kissed him passionately-and left the impress of her purple lips on his little nose thus covering the deficiency. But even if he were a god, he was plaster paris and heavy, and her legs were getting tired. She made up her mind to cross over to some steps and sit down till she was rested. But just as she turned to follow out this suitable plan, she felt a little nudge and over she went on the sidewalk, kerflop, just too tired to stand up. A boy on a bicycle had tried to get ahead of Mary Lou and instead had knocked her down. He was off in a second and had picked up the tired baby to find that she was a little neighbor of his. But finding that she was only tired not hurt, and that she wanted to go to the fire, he obligingly placed her in the basket of his bicycle and peddled them both through the crowd. It was lots better up on the bicycle-the air was fresher and she was getting a rest, and she leaned back against the handle-bars with a contented sigh, feeling as proud and happy as a queen might. And the little god in her arms-he looked even more happy than the grin on his face usually portrayed. How he had managed to protect the rest of his precious nose in the last fall, was perhaps more than anybody except a god could explain. But he seemed to be holding his own, and taking care of that baby, too, as is the way of the good gods. For blocks they rode and at length they reached the burning building. The boy put up his bicycle in a safe place and, keeping a tight hold on Mary Lou's hand, he piloted her through the crowd to a safe position to a stone wall from which to view the fire. There he deposited her with the strict understand- ing that she must not get down off the wall and stray away. So there she sat-for about five minutes when the excitement of people shouting and running about proved too much for her. So she turned about on her stomach and slid slowly, carefully down from the wall with the Billiken still in her clasp and dropped with a dull thud on the soft turf below. She picked herself up and looked around to see that the Boy wasn't look- ing. Then she pattered down to the hose and watched the little fountain coming up where two pieces of hose were joined. Tiring of that, she lifted her eyes to the bright flames leaping and falling and tumbling about each other. A great crash sounded through the air. One side of the building had fallen, luckily, inward. Someone jerked her back just as a burning brand came flying through the air. It lit at her feet on the spot where she had been standing. The little god was keeping his charge. Page one-hundred levonty-eight rr ', 5, I In .. , l 1 l l 4 1 5 l l ' S A fl 1 'i i l gr :gl She hugged Billiken tighter and closed her eyes to shut out the glare of the light. When she opened them, she saw a green and white piece of paper on the ground with some pictures of men upon it. She stooped down and picked it up. It was pretty so she stuffed it in her apron pocket to take home. Suddenly she thought about the boy. But she couldn't find him anywhere. She sat down on the grass next to the stone-wall to rest-her legs did get tired so soon The fire began to abate, and the people began to go home to their suppers, chatting as they went and shaking their heads over the loss to the neighborhood. Mary Lou wanted her supper. And she wanted to go home. And why didn't the boy come to take her? The crowd surged around her and receded and then kept growing thinner and thinner. Presently one of the fire engines turned around to go. A fireman crossed the street and came towards the baby. Mary Lou was almost crying and she sobbed out her call to the fireman most piteously. Oh, p-please. Mr. Fireman, won't you t-take me-h-home? Why, baby girl, did they forget you and leave you here by yourself? This was the first sympathy Mary Lou had been shown and she broke down and wept. just you wait a minute-no, l'll take her up with me, and the fireman picked her up in his arms and strode across the street to one of the fire-engines. He talked a few seconds with another fireman, then they asked Mary Lou what her name was and where she lived. Mary Lou gave the information cheerfully and in a minute the fireman had swung her up-up, and she found herself sitting on the seat on the fire-engine. Then the two firemen climbed up and sat on each side of her. And so with the bell softly clanging at street-crossings and the rumbling of the heavy wagon under her, Mary Lou rode home in state with the little god in her arms. They stopped in front of her house and she was put down amid an interested crowd of neighbors of which her mother, sister and Bedelia formed the center. The fireman attempted explanations, but mother was so glad to see Mary Lou, and Mary Lou to see her mother, that nothing else seemed necessary. Surely the little god had managed things his own way to have them pan out so well. Mary Lou was carried in the house and given a warm cooky. A life-long system of carefulness such as that of Bedelia's could not be upset even by a fire or the running away of Mary Lou. So these cookies had not been allowed to burn. Mary Lou stuck her hand in her pocket and pulled out her paper. Why, baby, where did you get that? Mary Lou thought a moment. I-Ier gaze encountered the wrinkled smile and wise look of the little fat god on the table. I fink ve Billiken must 'a found it. Yes, the little god had had a finger in it right along. lt was a bank-bill for a hundred dollars. -NINA BRIGHAM. Page one-hundred seventy THE 1914 MODEL Most every one has at some time or other had some attentive jinx that has come back like the proverbial cat of Roman history,+or was it Creek mythology? Peter Jones, unobtrusive married man, was neither blessed nor cursed by a cat but nevertheless he had an all-pervading jinx that followed him through a complete spasm of near-nervous prostrationf' whatever that is. Oh Peter, said the newly acquired Mrs. jones, where did you get that darling new straw hat? That, remarked Peter disdainfully, is neither new nor darling: it's a last year's hay-stack of ancient pattern. This was not information to his spouse but two dollars spent for a new hat could just as appropriately be spent on dollar a yard lace, which hap- pened to be coveted by the cook and mistress of the house, providing of course that Peter could be enticed away from the sun shade. CDollars were not abund- ant in the jones family.J But Peter dear, she kept on flattering, that style does set off the firm, determined mouth lines of yours and makes you look so dignified and business- like. This last should have worked on Peter's vanity, but not so: one year's married experience had done much for the susceptible Peter. That sun-burned, freckled-complexion-piece of fodder will make a grand self starter for the furnace next winter, and with that, a beautiful yellow spirally streak shot down the stairs-and with it spoiled Mrs. jones' hopes for dollar-a-yard lace. At five thirty Peter rushed home with his usual manner and greeting CPeter still hurried home from workb. On his head he wore the felt hat that he had taken in the morning. Didn't have time to get a new one, he explained. Before the evening meal was completed a great pounding was heard on the door of the jones' household. Mrs. jones opened the door and there stood Aunt Caroline, colored proprietoress of many Jones' washings, radiating in- dignant fury. That good fo' nawthing George of mine done wore home dis hear hat wif Mr. jones' exnitials depressed upon it and sayz he found it in the ash can. But I done know George, so I brought it back. Peter with ill grace reached for the expected tip, while Mrs. Jones scattered profuse expressions of gratitude in hopes that it might help some with the promptness of future washings. With Aunt Caroline's departure, a formal silence settled over them and during its reign Peter vainly tried to read about automobiles and Mrs. jones looked at fashions, but her face seemed to indicate that possibly her mind could be elsewhere. Then Peter arose, yawned and stretched, calmly remarked darn and went to bed. Mrs. jones followed soon with a very decided upward curve traced on her lips. Page one-hundred eighty ii 1 l r 1 1 I I f 1.1 l Q 4 7 I : Morning brought a scorching hot day. Too hot for a felt hat, said Peter, off his guard. Well, there's your straw, this was said with the greatest innocence. After George and the ash can? he asked with sarcasm. Well, it's too hot for the felt, she suggested. This ended the argument and Peter and the straw hat hurriedly boarded the first down town car. On the back platform luck favored him: a gust of wind coasting down the avenue siezed the offending head gear, volplaned it down the street and out of sight around the corner. Shall l stop? asked the usually obliging conductor. Never mind, said Peter curtly, not daring to express the joy he felt. Alighting from the car he went into a little ambitious clothing house, which perhaps hoped to profit by such misfortunes as Peter's. Something in a straw, he said to the waiting salesman. The salesman departed and in his absence a breathless street urchin came into the store, clutching tightly the remains of the persistent sunshade. l saw you when it got blowed off the car, he explained. Peter was again forced to reward faithfulness, and not until the salesman returned did he realize that he had only seventy-five cents left in his pocket. Peter knew that small clothing houses did not give credit, so when the sales- man came he said, I guess l'll take one of those cheap caps instead of a straw this morning. Taking his purchase and leaving the offending hat on the counter he hur- ried to the office where he had just enough time to punch-in at eight one. Avoiding the angry scowl of the superintendent as he passed he went to his work. Noon came and with it came the check for his week's work. He took his lunch in town and as he was returning to work he noticed in one of the display windows a very fanciful creation of feminine finery. Just like the one Doris is making, he mused. She said something about high priced lace too. Then he saw it on a bolt at the side of the window. It lay there, ex- quisite and dainty, also a dollar a yard. Then the idea came to him. CPeter had not enjoyed the evening of silence the night before!-why not take Doris a peace offering. So he went in and invested in the expensive ornament. This time he was late to the office but now he didn't care. Again Peter hurried home at five thirty. At the door stood Mrs. jones eagerly awaiting him. Oh Peter, you almost lost it, but Blumenshine's boy brought it up. They said you left it there this morning. Again the curse was brought into view. Then Peter gave her the lace and quietly pitched the hat into the front hall. Oh, Peter, youire such a dear, etc, began Mrs. Jones. Here Peter slipped over and the scene which followed was entirely too touching for the pen of the author, who it may be said is single, and doesn't believe in that sort of stuff. After the mist cleared, Doris took Peter by the hand and said, l wish you would keep that old straw hat out of sight now. It looks so shabby hanging in the front hall. Page one-hundred eilhtfon Peoria, Illinois, March 7, l93l. Dear Friend Magaret: When I last heard from you, you were just leaving Peking for Thibet to take charge of the new mission there. It must seem rather strange to be so far away from civilization, altho I don't suppose you mind very much as long as your wife is with you. But I thot it might interest you to hear of the dedica- tion of the new Bradley Normal School, which has just been completed. In i925 when platinum was discovered on some of the land owned by the,estate, the trustees decided to separate the College and Normal Depcartments and purchased land near Prospect Heights for the new buildings. They were designed by two of our old classmates, Kenyon and Cleveland, while the grounds were arranged by Irene Jones, who, contrary to her, or any one else's suspicion discovered that she had more talent for landscape gardening than teaching. Our former president Goodrich called the members of our class together to attend the dedication ceremony, which took place only last week. After the ceremony we all returned to the old familiar social hall for a reunion. Some of the members were unable to be there but letters were read by the president from many of these expressing their regret at not being able to attend and telling of what they were doing. For instance lone Smith is running a prairie- dog farm in Arizona to supply the New York and Chicago markets with his newly discovered delicacy. Of course it would be impossible for me to enumerate all the things con- tained in these letters so I will only write the most interesting facts concerning the various members. Bob Woellner and Charlie Smart have very unexpectedly become arch- eologists and, are now exploring the newly discovered buried cities of theAmazon. Walter Miller has become a minister in a large mining town in lower California, while Orlie Myers and George Harms went to the recently explored Antarctic continent as missionaries. After the great European war which closed late in l9I6, an international navy was formed for the protection of nations. Our old friend jimmy Patten is now captain of one of the ships stationed at the japanese port of Hong Kong, while Harry House is a captain in the international army now stationed at Moscow. Clif Turner and Fred Schauss were decorated by the japanese president for bravery in the second boxer rebellion in l924. Linn Covey is the United States delegate to the Hague Peace Tribunal. The former Leona Winn, now Mrs. Bob Wallace and her husband are doing Salvation Army work in Chicago. Since Chicago became the first city of the United States, owing to the deep waterway, it has also become the birthplace of new fashions, owing to the untiring efforts of the firm of Mauch, Creve and Scott, Designers. Abe DuBoff, Donald Weese and Alvin Hansen took ad- vantage of the opportunity offered by the deep waterway and starting from a small barge line have built up a large steamship line from the lakes to the gulf. The Mississippi, one of their largest and finest boats is captained by Mary Bee- man, and Martha Kasjens is holding the same title on the Illinois, their largest excursion boat, Page one-hundred eighty-Iwo fl I 4 4 i I fr -1 I ei I Emma Macdonald and Helen Shock have now occupied the bench of the United States circuit Courts at Peoria and St. Louis for the past five years. Laura Hansohn has risen to the position of dean at De Pauw University, while Rosamond Bergh is a professor of Psychology at Colorado University. Lucy Mellen and Bertha Pennington are both married and living happily in Denver. Selma Fritsche and Lucile Waltmire are at the head of the German and English departments at Bradley and Mark Rowell has been asked to take the director- ship of the new normal school since Doctor Burgess resigned in order to devote himself to the study of the new dances. Mr. and Mrs. Charles Dolies are now employed by the Society for the Improvement of Citizenship and are traveling in their monoplane, giving lectures in all the larger towns. Charles Lagemann has invented and perfected a portable electric lighting system which takes its energy from the sun. Bennett, Duwelius and Schoenike have only recently organized a company to market this most useful article. Heinrich, another unsuspected inventor of our class, perfected the wireless telephone so commonly used now for trans-atlantic conversations as well as for talking with flying machines. Nixon and Benson'were the originators of the New York and Buenos Aires rapid 'plane line and use the perfected form of the Cibbon's monoplane, making the trip one way in forty hours with a hundred passengers. This is made possi- sible thru the use of electricity for power. After Edison's death in l92l, Ruth Cordon took up the study of the storage battery and discovered an entirely new type thus solving numberless transportation problems. Susannah Bishop, Olga Coyner and Bess Cedney are now practicing medi- cine herein Peoria and have only recently opened a clinic where they can transfer anything from a toe to an eye or even a heart from their laboratories to a person who has suffered an injury. Estella Wheeler and Georgina Zimmerman have become great constitu- tional lawyers and may some day become judges of the Supreme Court. Muriel Summers has far excelled the most famous of all the composers, and has written some most excellent operas. Several of the class are now on the stage, perhaps the most famous being Anna Mortens, the queen of vaudeville and Howard Annis, the matinee idol, while Phillips and Boswell enjoy the title, That Eccentric Pair. Curd and Woodrow recently opened a school of interpretive dancing with music furnished by Speck's orchestra. Record's detective agency has now become the greatest of all such organ- izations, employing many of our former classmates, possibly the best known being Marguerite Moore, the moonshiner's terror, and Marguerite Fox and Drew Castle of the aeroplane force. Some of the girls became librarians and now occupy positions in the various public libraries of the Middle West. Bailey and Hunter recently formed a partnership for the practice of law and only a month ago the firm of Sheets, Walkup and Reed won the famous breach of promise suit of Nash vs. Strauch. Mr. and Mrs. jack Smith have been raising Peacocks guaranteed to sing for the past several years, being greatly assisted therein by the musical ability Page one-hundred cigly-three of Lillian Miller. Nelle Patterson, Jessie Logan and Merida Wilde have become animal trainers in Allen, Hunter and Karr's circus. Several of the class are now in the movies, notably Doty and Seeling, co-stars in the much advertised Who's Ceorge's Wife. written by Lelia Taylor for the Ditewig-jordan Film Company. No one would have ever suspected our president of cherishing a desire to become a great hypnotist, but Goodrich and Howard, Hypnotistsn has come to be quite familiar to all theatre-goers. As for authoresses, Helen Titus and Elsie lVlcCluggage are now writing all the best sellers. Last, but not least, a letter was read from Mr. John Wilson, our famous artist whose picture, This is the Life took the first prize at the Chicago Art Exhibit only last year. It certainly was a most successful reunion and we all wished you could have been with us. I KNOW you would have enjoyed thedancing, especially the Chapel Skip and the Dean's Walk. About the only other thing of interest about Bradley is the fact that the girls' dormitory is really started at last. I hope that you will get that long-sought leave of absence within a year or two so that you can come back here and talk over old times. Until then, yours as ever, PROC. 9 gilbig John Fair, in Hist. of Ed. class, after making a game effort to beat it around the bush in answering a question, finally tried to liken the ancient Greeks to the Nuts out at Bartonvillef' Mr. Seipert claims that boys often aspire to be policemen, but added that there would be some very poor aspirations in our immediate vicinity.

Our scout saw him inhale a cigarette the other day which all goes to show that his lungs are getting tougher every minute. With a track suit and nature's costume Claire is not visible to the naked eye, hence his competitors will loaf on the job while Margie cops off the blue ribbon. Mile Run-Our first choice in this event is the honorable Mr. McCollough, who has a record of stepping the track once in a hundred steps. Thus he will be able to walk past the rest providing he is kept off the street and fed only the finest sweet-meats. Hurdles-We concede this to Bruninga, the third, his being built for com- fort and proximity to the ground assures him speed in going thru the hurdles while the rest go over them, thus wasting time. For a youngster he sure is some fast boy. Quarter and Half-This is Ben Plumber's special. He is nervy and fresh enough at all times to get away with anything. These events require much wind. We look to Ben and his London Life Loungary Longens to win in a walk. Hammer Throw-This event is supported by our Tower of Strength, Reggie junior. The first swing of the hammer will heave him so far that he couldn't be outdistanced by even Crip Lowes' talk. Shot-This is Dalton's big event as he is the biggest wind pusher in school. The Pole Vault goes to Meyers who has had much experience in handling the pole end of a cue in Doebler's barber shop. These are sure winners. Place your bets early. Clif Turner and B.

X 1 's E 1 3 i I i THIS HEREIN BEING THE EVERLASTINC ACCOUNT OF THE BRADLEY-GALESBURG TRIP AS TOLD BY FIRST SUBSTITUTE CRIP LOWES. I was over in the gym when I found out that I was going. Gee, I thot I was all in luck till about five minutes later this here ,Iacquin comes along an' says that I had to carry the basket ball, the medicine bandages, rub-down and about ten other things. jacquin, mind you the manager, who's supposed to carry everything, pawning them off on me. Soft graft, this manager's job. I won't give it an out but at that this was only a beginning of my troubles. Pretty soft for some people, I'd say. Well as the train left at 3:30 I hurried around, loaded up with all this excess baggage and with much of hard work I manages to get there about 3:20, I walks in feeling pretty good and thinking that I was some help anyway. I looks around for them and the first thing I saw was all this bunch of loafers sitting around doing nothing, reading a magazine or wearing a smilel and me loaded to the guards. Furthermore, I had to lug them all on the train and see that they were all taken care of till we hit the dugout at Abingdon. Gee, it's a wonder they didn't want me to lug them to the beanery after we got there! We all gets settled nice and quite, playing cards, reading or talking 'cause that's about all Nellie or Schauss can dog everything went nice and peaceful till we were the other side of Farmington when Schauss spotted a girl in the other end of the car that looked nifty from the rear at sixty paces. I-Ie gave a whoop, got up, brushes off his clothes, perpendicularizes his tie and collar, and then the jitney opera began. Of course he was thirsty, hence he had to get a drink but that didn't get him any where 'cause he was born all out of luck when he gave that whoop, he couldn't even get one good look from her. Maybe you think that he didn't get the Anvil Chorus of ha-ha's, and Schauss a graduate of Fairyland. This side of Hedding corn field, they began to get hungry so we went up to the other end of the train. The rest of the gang started the discord rag, but wise little Willy gets the nicest little smile out of that baby, some baby, too, I had all of them going crazy, including Bill Allen. Some class to me, eh: and just then of course we had to hit that blame burg. We piled off that train ready to eat boards, the first thing that coach said was that we were all to run to the restaurant for exercise, imagine it, will you. We piles thru that town at a sixty mile clip each one lugging a grip except me, and I was a young hack: then when we did get there all we got to eat was toast and eggs, tho' Bill did get young chicken-on-shell. Light evening repast over, Schauss and I started to the school to see what we could lind and believe me we found it all right, I'll give each of them two strikes right over the pan. It was in the shape of a girls' dormitory and if your imagination is good you can just imagine the entertaniment that we got for about thirty minutes. After losing the game due to my stellar playing we had twenty minutes to catch the rube for Calesburg and supper. Everybody broke records and I'll bet that I stepped that mile in the least 4:48 4-5.

Crooks did you say? About 3 bells I got one boot from this Allen with a general howl to close the window: I sure did freeze in doing it but guess it was worth it to get a little peace and believe me I didn't know anything till 8 bells the next morning. I was of course the morning exercise and amusement for that bunch of nuts: I ended up I think in the bath tub. After getting the niftiest waiter in the hotel we proceeded to order everything on the menu except the prop- rietor's name, coach being absent, of course, Allen and Lidle tho' got Young Chicken-on-toast again. That important duty over we feasts our glimmers on Tessie the poor waiting girl, incidentally to unconcerned discern her nature. I pipes at her if she wanted to take a walk, and what do you suppose she told me right in front of everybody. She says in a sweet little voice with a half sneer, You're too young to know anything. Can you imagine it, wouldn't that make your nanny go thru a brick wall? I never did hear the last of that, I won't give her even two strikes. From here the Royal Order of Crooks adjourned to a pool room where they started a pea-pool tournament with me as the goat. I went into that place with about SI.50 and after getting killed every darned game, I comes out of that place with nothing but a hole in my pocket. Crooks did you say, no, I won't mention the name. About this time Tom Clark hoves to, so we all adjourn with him to some- thing good to eat at the Beta house. We went out there, had a good dinner, saw one guy take a forcible, unvoluntary bath, heard Tom sing a solo that would put a cat to shame and then started for home on foot colder thani-1. I-lalf-way down town we caught a ride, so we all piled in, with me as usual just hanging on by my teethg all of us were standing in a row when this here Allen gives a shove and me being the last unfortunate in line I do as pretty a slide for second head first that you ever saw. Now listen, wasn't I fish for that gang? Maybe you think that this Bill Allen didn't take a pretty spill as I ever saw when we were getting out up at the hotel. He stands up and jumps all O. K. but his feet descended gracefully on a piece of ice, now l'll stand right here and let any guy swat me and eat my hat if he didn't make a pretty picture. Well, you know coach made us go in the hotel and go to bed. You call it that if you want to but I wouldn't. Gee, I pikes off a pretty dame, I think she made the beds, and was having a fine time when interrupted. You see it was this way. I wanted another comfort for the bed so I spots her and goes to the room where she was working and asks her. All O. K. so far. We got to talking, nothing unusual you understand, when, who should we hear coming along, but the housekeeper. I knew it was all up with me if caught so gets behind the door and waits. The minute that there suff shows in, I gives one corkscrew turn and beats it hot foot for the room with that chasing after me. I knew if I bit the lower hall I was safe so when I did reach the door she was only on the Page Iwo-hundred lea 2. -nl-i This is Interior Illinois' Greatest Retail Establishment Thrice Overl S g 65 55 T N Lariat Q Q ' lei I 4 WH Q- ill I ii ie'1' M22 ef fu- fI'll' lim I 1 ' ff: ff T S x I Q lil Halt' Ill 5 5 IPI E wa 'Hi LIE .. 11 ri Fl U 311 I: l 1 !- ' - 'E 2 - lmlill Q32 ll Ummnmd gl F JN :lub I ' I-i . . .:i,5,11:::,-:iig.j.V'fm A- W- V il: Q., L, Q -- .5 Q wt 5' ss:,S,e cEc-, --F f:f'Ei?:-1-:i':1-Zg1LE.- r - ' --'if --1 - 4 mill It is an ever changing assemblage of all the clothing wants and needs of man, woman and child: also furnishings for the home, selected by our buyers in the greatest marts of the world and conveniently arranged under one roof.

But can you beat it? The door was locked and that getting nearer every second. I tell you I ate my heart, and when they did open the door, I nearly fainted gettin' in. I went so fast. That adventure over we all tried to sleep to the tune of the Old Cat Died, which a coal man under the window was playing on a coal chute. If words had any effect that man would be on his way to heaven. Nit! Game called at 8 bells, we wakes up at 6:45 with no supper. We did make things fiy except Allen, and he had so much of a certain girl's candy in him that he hardly moved. Don't blame him, I wouldn't have either if I could have got a hold of it. Well boys, it sure was a great game. I played that night. But as here comes coach, and the life of a sub is a weary one, I'll only say this. We had a fine time all in all, but never take a trip with a gang like that when you're low man like I was. See! I won't give them an out. Oh! yes, I nearly forgot, you should have seen Bill Allen get stung after the game at Lombard. You know they had a dance like we do. He picks out the niftiest girl he can see and gets one of the fellows to introduce him. Yea, glad to know you. No, I'm sorry but all my dances are taken. Five minutes after Red goes and gets a dance with her. She asked Red, Who is that fellow? pointing to Bill, He tried to flirt with me all during the game. Needless to say Bill didn't dance any. Well, so long fellows, but remember ace high, deuce low. DAMNED OLD FLIES. Color-Bottle Blue. Flower-Forget-Me-Not. Faculty Advisor-A. Little Comfort. Active Flies.

Having partaken freely of Peoria's famous beverage one night, I lay my- self down in my downy bed with the covers tucked under my chin and ex- perienced a transformation so wonderful and bloodcurdling, I must needs relate it to you. I found myself amongst the bottles and my associates in Chem. Lab. Directly in front of me perched on the sink sat my friend Nickolas Chloride caressing Mag. Nesium and gazing at the water spatteringd own as tho it were Niagara Falls. Their sweet moments were interrupted by the Ild maid gossip Sili Cate, who threatened to impart to lVIaggy's father, Pa Tassium, the news of the young couple's familiarity. They spurned Cate and she in a rage hast- ened to Pa, but on her precarious route thru the Filter, met Old Man Al. Cohol, the saturated stew, who was trying to entice little lVIoly Cule to enter his dram shop. At this critical stage when so much depended on activity, Al. U. Minium, the good conductor appeared from his street car window. I-Ie leaped off and with one terrific splatter, dissolved the difficulty. The chemistry suffragettes, under lVIiss Poly Sulphide responded quickly to the call for aid and carried Al. out to the simk to be executed by the deadly fumes of bromide. Pa Tassium followed the excitement and so thoroly frightened Nick and lVIag upon his appearance that they fell into the sink. The equilibrium was displaced and all perished by the dissociation of the molecules in trying to save the liquified couple. This last crash awoke me and I recovered sufficiently to hear the in- structor ejaculate from clenched teethv, Class is dismissed. WHAT IS SO RARE AS A DAY IN JUNE? IVIr. Raymond at chapel.

The bird in the hand is yelling, but the two in the bush are silent. Where there's a will there's a lawsuit. Eat, drink, and be merry for to-morrow you diet. Think twice before you speak, then keep still. A stitch in time means safety first. If at first you don't succeed become a politician.

The quest is just as keen today, but by no means as hopeless since the spirit of Eternal Youth Kr has been caught and molded l into our garments for young people. Whether youth seeks the correct attire for the ball-room or suitable garments for every day wear, our designers have reHected a vim and spontaneity that brings Eternal Youth before the door. And prices so moderate they fail to suggest the real values offered. Shoes of Style and Quality-Correctly Fitted 1 t ' l I lel as -i 'i K ii 45 I X L i 2.01'203 S.ADAMS ST.
