( J| • .NNf College Life THERE are two attitudes toward col- lege life. First, there is the attitude that it is a period of preparation for the life to come. Second, there is the atti- tude that it is life itself. To me, college life is life. Nothing will come later that will be sweeter or more beau- tiful. Nothing will come later that will re- quire a more liberal share of my vitality and my interest. Nothing will come later that will demand so much of the man in me, as these problems of the class room. The joy of accomplishment will never be keener, and if I have been reared aright, the gall of failure neve r more bitter. College life widens horizons, — it illu- mines pathways. It stimulates ambition; it embarrasses desires for the mediocre. It makes one yearn to get under things, that the lifting may be more effective. If this isn ' t living, what is? EARL JAY GLADE. 11 Stray Gathering 1 SOME of us came to school the very first week. There was Talmage, Bradley, Mitchell, Haynie, Evans, Randall, Booth, Lyman, Herbert, Thornton, and Blake, a real jolly bunch. One day we went for a walk with Hanchett as our leader. It was in the Autumn when the Ivie and Sweet Williams were prettiest An-der-son shone brightest. Our path led past the Maesar and came to-Ward the foothills where the Haws and Woodbury grow. One of the boys had his Gunn, but could find nothing to shoot except some Brown Beans ■which soon became tiresome. Soon we had to Cross-by a ravine in which ran a little Brook, but the water was Luke warm, besides there were eggs in it which were old enough to Hatch, so it did not o-Kerr to us to drink it. The boys caught some fish and nothing would do until we had a Frei with our Hugh-Chamberlain in charge. Before it was done a Call came from the rocks above that a party had found a Young Knight who had fallen because of Slack communications between him and his guide. His clothes needed a Taylor so he was at once turned over to the Marshall who procured a Steed with a Cord-on and con- ducted him to town. When we came to the Snow line we heard Lind-say Campbells are coming ! We all looked and saw any number of sons : Jen-son, Han-son, Nel-son, Knud-son, Berge-son, and Swen-son, but only one Campbell. Then someone said, Who is going to the top of the peak? and the answer echoed, Lew-is, Curt-is, Harr-is, Franc-is, Dav-is. Quickly the retort came What an a-Sumsion to make. It must be only Hir-schi, and you will have to Sho-walter. All undaunted by these remarks, the stalwarts, Stalman, Jackman, and the Clarks, Gillespie and BarkduU said they would Russel a means of get- ting to the top even if it took Riches. At this point one of the girls became Moody and though we did Warn-er against the Harm-on a mountain alone, she struck off up the ravine. She had not gone far when a Daw in the bushes frightened her and she came running Down with face white as a Miller. Smith and Hafen said they would investigate and to our surprise a large Stagg bounded past us. Before we could think he was gone, so we said, We do not want to kill him Dew-ey? Then everything went wrong; the water would not Boyle, the Potter would not work, neither would the dog Bark-er Gardner dig a hole, for he said he was a Free-man. So Snell and Boyden took Magleby, Dalby, Brockbank and Stevens, And-rus(h)-ed down the hill until they were ready to drop with ex- Austin. On our arrival home we no longer felt bewilderment or backwardness of the ordinary Freshmen, but were determined to make the class known in the history of the school. 13 THE great chemist. Life, scratched her head. In her laboratory, the B. Y. U., she had a difficult problem to solve. One hundred and thirty-nine green substances for analysis, each with a different com- position. They must be tested for energy, ambition, and stick- to-it-iveness. After treating each with a few c. c. of Music, Art, History, or Educa- tion and Philosophy, as the case demanded, all were placed in the great beaker, The Freshman Class of 1913-1914 and general treatment was begun. The soluble, or the inefficient and faint-hearted, were to be separated from the insoluble. This must be done by throwing them into solution and filtering them out. To the entire mass was added a few c. c. of Homesick- ness, a little Discouragement, a few c. c. of dilute Lack of Funds, a few drops of Undesire and numerous other compounds. This process was con- tinued until the Spring of 1914. The dhemist now stirred the mass vigor- ously with the glass rod. Commencement Examination, and poured it into the filtering funnel, then stepped back by Father Time to await results. By Fall the soluble and insoluble had separated. The residue of the Freshmen filtration was the Sophomore Class of 1914-15. The great chemist looked upon this residue with pride and satisfaction. Over forty had proved insoluble. These she carefully placed in the various beakers as before and again began individual treatment. She must make sure that none of the soluble had remained and must test them aJl for genuine worth. Into some beakers she added concentrated Lack of Funds, into others she poured Offers of Positions, and into others that most sol- vent of all her chemicals. Matrimonial Tendencies. During this treatment the different members were at times brought to- gether in groups and treated collectively. When bathed in a solution of School and Social activities they were found to be vigorous and enthu- siastic. Shaking them vigorously in a Sleigh Ride, or Street Car Ride only helped to weld them together. Each time that they were brought together their resistant power was increased by heating them over the bunsen flame, Class Spirit. AU of these treatments only served to unite them more strongly. The great chemist ' s work for this year is nearly finished. She has placed the forty-six members into a great vessel and is now stirring them with the rod, Ambition and Hope. Expert scientists of the laboratory say that when next October comes ' round for the chemist ' s report, every Sopho- more will be here to a man, ready to stand any further test that the great chemist has in store for him. 28 30 3? K - - A Toast to the Future FOR the first time in the history of our institution the Juniors, as a class, have become important in school activities. Although they have been quiet and unassuming they have contributed some- thing toward the life, vigor, and enthusiasm which has prevailed in the Student Body organization. Under the leadership of Frank Beckstead the class reached a high stage of civilization, but he allied him- self at the end of the first semester with the Seniors and the guiding reins of the class were picked up by Clarence Baird. With the aid of Merline Roylance and Mabel Reynolds, Clarence has steered the class again into the path of Success and Progression. The Junior class has held some rousing good class meetings and social functions and has furnished its quota of contestants in intercollegiate meets, and officials in Student Body organizations. Each member of the class is going forward with a firm determination to occupy a dignified position in the senior class of 1915-16, and each is laying a broad foundation with the hope of overcoming all obstacles which might be a hindrance to his success. Each member of the class has this to say : Here ' s to you, year of 1915-16! May the Brigham Young University graduate a larger, better, and more loyal Senior class than ever before in its history. r: iS „ 3gL, MERLINE ROYLANCE Provo. Major — Home Economics.

A Parting Word WE are leaving college with a spirit of happiness because it is an epoch in our lives, but we sorrow at bidding our Alma Mater adieu. The adventures of lifes journey will but bring to our minds memories of the White and Blue. As we arrive at the mile post, Graduation, we see the goal toward which we are striving, receding into the distance as does the imagined lake to the thirsty traveler of the desert. The world needs men and women who have broad minds, men and women who can see and supply the needs of their weaker brothers, and men and women who are honest with themselves — for as the poet says, If a man is true to himself he cannot be false to any man. Efficiency is our motto, and we know that if we act well our part we must put ourselves in sympathy with our fellow-man and learn to appreciate the good in him. We must have the cour- age to face ingratitude, to live the right in spite of the scoffs of those about us, and cultivate a love for all. We have tried during our college life to make ourselves effi- cient, and it is the desire of each class member to become pro- ficient in whatever practical vocation he may choose. There are those of our members who will be heard of in legislating and enacting laws for the people; there are some who will spend their time in delving deep into the sciences to learn more of the work- ings of nature there are others of us who will be useful as teachers, shaping the lives of thousands and helping them through difficulties. A number of our class members will be- come professional in Art, and Music, or in surgical and medical work, and no doubt some will become sons of the soil to toil with the class of people who form the backbone of civilization. We as the class of 1915 are going to be found among those who are pushing to the front, and in acknowledgement of the lift which we have received from the dear old B. Y. U. we are going to carry with us its high ideals and make them a part of the world outside. M ( S3 O. F. CALL (Maori) Rigby, Idaho Major — Biology. President Senior Class.

Hinckley, who left us at the end of the first semester, has been for five years Dean of our College, for twice that length of time a counselor to President Brimhall, and for twenty years a member of our faculty. He is a reformer by nature and he now has the opportunity to try his principles of reformation on the unfortunates who have become inmates of the State Industrial School at Ogden. The Banyan wishes him success. 69 •-L-. .« ' . « ' glijivks ' V li ' i THE Associated Collegians number three hundred and twenty-seven, an increase of twenty-seven per cent over last year. Our aim has been while at school to make our lives richer by developing our abilities for actual service. We believe that knowledge is power, but also that it may be power for destruction as well as construction. To it must be added a proper alignment of life. The sweet wholesomeness of our associations this year in both intellectual and social ways demonstrates our belief in the fact that character, as a vital factor in life, must be added. The Master came in order that we might have a more abun- dant existence. Our hope is that every member of the asso- ciation will leave the world better for having lived in it; that we might be dynamic of spiritual regeneration in the social sphere to which we are called to contribute our part. Our hopes and efforts will ever tend toward the growth of the Church Teacher ' s College. ■i ■ .:-v| 4 The Faculty Bunch ; ' •  ; Well, of all the Banyan bunches That I ever tried to get, You ' re the toughest lot of fellows I have ever tackled yet. Even Keeler tried to dodge me And he hid his handsome face From the presence of the Banyan That provided him a place. Brimhall came to me quite easy, ' Cause he knew that he was boss, And he had to show the others That his back was free from moss. Hinckley simply wouldn ' t stand it. So he hiked himself away To that reformation city Where he ought to stop and stay. Merrill then came up a-smiling. With his teeth all clean and white. For he saw a place by Brimhall That was velvety and bright. Swenson ' s sense of true proportion. And his clear perspective view, In a way, just kept me guessing As to what that he would do. Mining stocks were shot to pieces. And his hair was getting gray, And he didn ' t want a picture. If he really had to pay. Registrars are always busy Fussing round a lot of books And our Hayseed made me dizzy Trying to record his looks. Here he is in all his glory. Just as happy as can be. He should worry, but he doesn ' t, ' Bout the grief he brought to me. Holt has twenty years of minutes Written down in second books, Which has made him so conceited That he don ' t care how he looks. I have got him in my Banyan, But I wish I ' d left him out. For he never smiled at nothin ' . But the girlies and the trout. Glade — well, cut him all to pieces And he ' ll make another race. That would cause this one of Adam ' s To look silly in the face. He ' s the It of all creation, He ' s a whirlwind set on fire. And the one redeeming feature Of the bunch that I admire. Dr. Fletcher has discovered That the whirligig of life Is a lot of lectrocutions ■Dancing in a deadly strife. In the city of Chicago, Where he won immortal fame. All the highest marks of honor Punctured passes through his name. I have got him in my Banyan, Well, I got him — look and see He ' s no waser nor an iser . But a one that ' s going to be. I could tell you of some others That are in this Banyan Book, But I ' ll simply point my finger, And invite you all to look. Some are fresh and young and handsome, Other ones are old and gray, Thus I found them and present them As they look and act today. They have caused me lots of trouble. But I ran them in at last. If they ' ll face me in the future, I ' ll forgive them for the past. r ft •fiJ ' y hM IN MEMORIAM Twice has the grim reaper, Death, exacted toll from the Student Body during the present year. Heyward Marshall, one of six brothers, passed to the Great Beyond January 11, 1915. Of sturdy stock, used to out- door life in the little village of Minersville, above all else he seemed to give promise of life. His death came as a shock to all. Perhaps no family from Beaver county is better known and more highly respected by faculty and Student Body alike than that of Heyward Marshall. Three of his sisters and two of his brothers have been of our number at various times. The death of Miss Laurel McCarty, occurring January 22, 1915, could hardly be called a shock. None who came in close contact with her could fail to know that she was not long for this earth. Sweet and tender in her suffering, she seemed like some delicate flower, or like the fragile lines she traced in her art designs. The news of her death perhaps brought its own resignation, for many felt that heaven had but claimed its own. Several members of the faculty were class-mates of her father, Homer McCarty. m- 1 bA. WILLIAM M. BOYLE, A. B. Head of the Academic Department riv.i W •••N ' l As; The Brigham Young University High School THE High school, in the various locaUties, has become the center of educational activity of the people. The great industrial masses, the bone and sinew of every nation ; the v arf and woof of society, is greatly in need of the uplift of an education. The toiling masses of common peo- ple of every nation, need an education that will enable them to find music and poetry in their daily toil. The appearance of the high school in our country is therefore one of the many signs that the people are coming into their own; that they are appreciative of their needs and are struggling up- ward toward light that leads to joy and happiness through channels heretofore traveled, but by the few. The ideal high school, the Academy of Brigham Young ' s day, is described in his Deed of Trust, which he issued when the Brigham Young Academy was founded, is considered to be one that should teach some branch of mechanism in addition to other branches of human knowl- edge. He therefore made it binding upon the school founded by him and started through his liberal gift, (the school which finally developed into the Brigham Young University) that it should teach to all its students some branch of useful mechanism and Theology as well as other branches of education. His Deed of Trust comprehended the developing of a school of higher education and he con- ceived the Academy as an institution which would qualify for this higher work. The characteristic thing of this school, is its spiritual atmosphere; that influence and spirit which accompanies all of its activities. This grows naturally out of the theologi- cal studies and the religious activities in which all engage. This in connection with all things else, received from this high school, qualifies the graduate to function efficiently among his fellows in all the activities of a complex society.

This is our motto and for four years we have tried, both indi- vidually and collectively, to gain its rew ard, and v e feel that we have done so. At the present time, we stand at the close of our four years ' high school work. May our commence- ment be a true one, may it mark the beginning of an effort to reach a higher goal, where a greater com- mencement will mark the finish of a successful col- lege career. = i 83 fFMVS L?Aiid£rsoa 1 15 ' s H.

From the showing that the class teams have made this year we can predict that we will next year be in the race for Intercollegiate and High School pen- nants. 90 96 Things Worth While Uknow, Mandy, I ' ve bin up thar tew the B. Y. U., as it ' s called, ' n ' there ' s a klass up thar what they calls the Sev ' nteens High Skule. Sum ov th ' hans ' mest boys ' n ' purtiest gals ever I see, an ' smartest, too. The skule haz hearn ov ' em, an ' b ' lieve me, Mandy, th ' wurld ' ull hear ov ' em when th ' time comes. This is what Uncle Josh Billings had to say of our class. As Seventeens, we applaud his judgment; we know that he is one of the best of judges, of things worth while. Shrewd, hard-headed old farmers have more than horse sense, and Uncle Josh is no excep- tion to the rule. Time will prove that he exercised the best of judgment when he selected the Seventeens ' High School as his favorite. The school has heard, and shall hear more, and the world shall hear from the Class ' 17 High School. 18 ' s H. S. A formidable bunch indeed, these First Year High School Classmen — enough of them to fill all the nooks and corners in all the buildings and the walks of the campus are so covered with them that they are stumbled over by all the other classmen. But we can not get along without them, their numbers count. We cannot hold a school function of any kind unless we first consider the 18 ' s H. S. Class. The Student Body could not thrive without the fees of these students and but one edition of the White and Blue would appear each month, because of lack of material for its jokology department. The Class has made its influence felt and we must have it back next year. All such Timber needs is seasoning to make it good quar- ter-sawed oak in its senior year. i i t 101 . ' I- A ' I J. L. BROWN, B. S. Principal of The Normal and Training School . A ; V The Professional Preparation of Teachers -r «OCIETY has no more important duty to perform than that of the professional preparation of the teachers for our public school system. The real import of their duty is not fully sensed by the average citizen as he does not meet the problems at first hand. He has a much clearer conception of the necessity for professional training for the physician— yet a com- munity can more consistently tolerate an incompetent physician than an incompetent teacher. If the physi- cian makes a wrong diagnosis of a case and admin- isters a wrong or ineffective medicine, the chances are that the vital physical forces of the system will in time completely eradicate the effects of the error. But when an untrained person is given charge of a year or more of the school life of forty or fifty boys and girls and fails to appreciate his problem of the underlying principles of the educative process and the proper method of applying them, who can estimate the loss and what forces will compensate the damages? The moral training courses in our teachers col- lege aim at the following : To give the student-teacher a knowledge of the underlying principles of mind development. A view of the history of education and an ex- planation of our present school system and an appre- ciation of the failures and successes of the past. An opportunity of meeting the problem of apply- ing these principles in actual teaching under the supervision of experienced critic teachers. An appreciation of his social responsibility and his duty as an educator to the community. A teacher thus professionally prepared is fore- armed and fore-warned of his important work and should render much efficient service to society. J. L. BROWN. 107 J.

Under the leaderships of such able men as Professors A. C. Lund, Robert Sauer, Moses Gudmundson, and C. R. Johnson, the musical organizations in our school have reached a standing which is envied by many of the best schools of music. The Sun Dance opera, composed by Mrs. R. T. Bonnin and Wm. F. Hanson and directed by Professor Lund, is one of the greatest musical treats ever pre- sented to the people of this state. It is merely a sample of the kind of work that can be and is done in the B. Y. U. School of Music. — ' A . m jS .., 118 vaa tv ' Si j:xrNi y . . 1. i lib R ' i: J jm fc sf f % z ' ' s- r . 7 A : F ' T i 0 ' ' : tiSiS mi ' f K HH i ' 1 BT fc Professor Gudmundson ' s String Quartette A Group of Students Who Play Their Way Through School %fiMY Emma Larson Annie L.

Our librarians have patiently looked after the needs of all and have been partial to none, and our book would not be complete without a word of appre- ciation. Deutscher Verein Schaffen und Streben ist Gottes Gebot, Arbeit ist Laben, nichts tun ist Tot. Wer gluecklich ist, kann gluecklich machan, Wer ' s tut vermehrt sein eignes Glueck. To foster a German spirit and an appreciation for that great peo- ple and their rich language, early in the school year the German stu- dents met at Instructor Hinckley ' s. Here a typical German luncheon was served. Acting under the stimulus of this Schmeckende Speise an association was organized with Hyrum Harris as president, I. F. Brockbank and Olga Wunderly, vice presidents ; Elva Chipman, secretary and treasurer, and Walter Cottam, correspondent. There- after semi-monthly socials were held at which only German was to be spoken or sung. The seventy-five happy faces on the picture is evi- dence of the enthusiasm attained. Those on the front row have filled missions in Germany and constitute the famous G. M. U. H. Verein. Their fluency with the Mutterspracke gives the beginners an incen- tive and a stimulus to achieve. Blumen sind an jedem Weg zu finden, Doch nicht jeder weiss den Kranz zu winden. G. H. S 123 How many really recognize and appreciate the unusual sociological ad- vancement of the present day? In practically all the phases of life, society is growing and expanding as never before. The teaching profession is no ex- ception. The efforts of the modern teacher are rapidly substituting, if not entirely eclipsing, those of his antiquated predecessor. The students of Elementary Education of the University recognized these facts and early in the year effected an organization formally known as El Maestro Club — the Teacher ' s Club. The officers were: W. H. Daw, Pres. ; Rhoda Greenwood, Vice Pres. ; Howard N. Blassard, Second Vice Pres. ; Georgia Maesar, Sec ' y.-Treas., and Heloise Day, White and Blue cor- respondent. The Club membership exceeded seventy in number. This organ- ization was founded on the basis of unity of purpose and sympathetic relation- ship. It was our hope to supplement our regular classes in Education with the consideration of vital social problems and to develop a group of prospec- tive teachers whose interests would extend beyond the four walls of the school-room. We feel that in a large measure we have been successful; that our ideas and ideals have been broadened, and our appreciation of the Teaching Profession has received a dynamic stimulus. El Maestro Club has func- tioned — yes, as a potent factor in our preparation for what we have come to consider the most noble of all professions. r h Leroy Hafen Parley Woolsey Debated the University of Utah We are indeed proud of our debaters. They have upheld our institution and have shown that we are not deficient in presenting our side of the argument. We have won three debates out of four. Utah and Nevada have been beaten by our teams and our boys, though defeated by the University of California, put up a good fight and the debate was no one-sided affair. We surely have the team now.

Of course our friends from the North still figure that they could have beaten us, but the facts show that they didn ' t. Although our High School team was less success- ful, they put up a good fight and made it interesting for their opponents. We expect them to do better next year. . i- h Our Glorious Banner Our glorious banner waves on high, Folds of white and blue are streaming And our star of fortune in the sky, Like the noon-day is beaming.

Edward has named the new con- stellation of freckles, which recently appeared on the South by East corner of his map, in honor of Lisle ' Lind- say. He says that he hopes she will remember the compliment when Nature presents her with any additional complexion. We hate to say this about a friend, but a mean son-of-a-gun told us that the reason the White and Blue was delayed one week during the early part of the school year, was not because the press broke down, as was stated, but because the editor ' s trousers didn ' t function in a vital place. We know this is honest because we visited the editor while he was in bed, at the time repairs were being made on his trousseau. Ken Parkinson says he is not vindictive by nature, but he ' s out gunning for the guy that invented the Ostend and the B. Y. U. Special. He says his bill for suspenders has increased three hundred per cent since they started the new dances. We can understand Mr. Parkinson ' s predicament, because we also dis- tinctly remember several good gallasses that were sacrificed to those confounded dips. It ' s a funny thing that every musician that we have ever seen can pronounce Chopin Shopang whether the rest of King George ' s English is mangled or not. Perhaps we are unneces- sarily severe on the exponents of the divine art, but we con- cluded, the other day, that a good many of them missed their calling when they didn ' t study blacksmithing. We don ' t care to mention any names, but some of the gentle- men whom we address by the title of brother receive this little token of respect because they always feel that we are twitting them on their personal appearance when we call them plain Dean, or Vernie O. Duke Mathews complains that since the faculty went on record against chewing gum in class, he hasn ' t been able to get anywhere near enough exercise. I 148 (i j We don ' t know whether any of the other boys around here are in the same box or not, but when we kidd a dame with the remark that we ' ve never kissed anybody but our Ma they always tell us that they refuse to be an agricultural experiment station. To show that it depends upon the point of view, witness the following asides: Jim: At last I ' ve won her. Norma: At last I ' ve hooked the poor prune. Any way, we were sort of interested in the diamond ring and lavalliere that Jim gave her last Christmas. We didn ' t ask our girl what she wanted because we couldn ' t be that ex- travagant. .,.. J,. Someone was mean enough to say that the Freshmen kept their little caps on by vacuum pressure, and another vile in- sinuator said that Elsie Talmage got her start ar a writer of fic- tion by composing excuses to her dear teachers. Rumor hath it that Dad Roberts is suing the company that made his peg leg for non-support. Even at that, we insist that ' Dad has it on most of us. He can use thumb-tacks to hold his socks up. We ' ve an idea that a good many of our stenographical students will stop taking dictation shortly after they get mar- ried. A great many of us cannot listen to the plain truth, because it is so darned uncomplimentary. Frank Goold said that the reason we hadn ' t seen him around school lately was because he hadn ' t been. Hugh Baxter is sure that the most memorable date in his- tory is the one Hy Harris had with Merline Roylance. We were always interested in finding out why a fat man was so good natured, so to support our thesis, and in the interests of science we inquired of friend Russell the reason for the Cherubic smile that always illumines his countenance. Gosh, he said, I got to be good natured; I can ' t fight and I can ' t run. mi iE-k . 140 Calendar for 1914 -15 JUNE 5-6-7. — And it came to pass that in the year of our Lord 1914, and during the rule of George, the learned of the learned, who were of the hosts of Mormon, met in the city of Provo at the B.

A JULY 15. — Now the hosts in Provo were visited by Alma, the world- renowmed athlete.

JULY 20. — The toils of many were again taken up. 157 158 m JULY 24. — And, yea, for the first time cars came into our midst with apparently no locomotive power propelling them, but they did run, and great was the wondering, for lo ! few had expected such to happen before 1932.

OCTOBER 9. — After an elapse of eighty-five days, there was a great gathering in the city of Provo. From the four comers of the earth many gathered to this School of promise, yea, great was the number thereof. Now this was during the reign of the Chief Judges : George, Edwin, and Joseph, who were judges over these people who were gathered together. And one having been chosen from among them, yea, one Edward came forth in all his splendor. Now it came to pass that the followers of Edward were also followers of the three great Judges and were calle d Brighamites. Now the number of them was so great thereof, that these Brighamites did divide into eight tribes : Callites, Becksteadites, Walkerites, Hanchettites, Stringhamites, Finlaysonites, Obeggites, and Hatchites. OCTOBER 16. — And behold it being the thirty and ninth year since the founding of this institution of learning, the many tribes of the Brigham- ites did assemble to celebrate. Yea, they all did march forth through the streets with their leaders ; banners, and trumpets. Yea, every youth and maiden did come forth in their colors of White and Blue. On the same day the hosts gathered at the waters of the millrace and there the physically strong of the S. F. O. H. did meet the strong of the C. B. W. P te • liA 5 i ' -, V S . sH . a. ■ - u H Gallery iRN EDUCRTIVf bA-,. ffj •• v( and H. in a tug-of-war. Yea, and great was the contention, until the former encouraged by an officer of George, even one Earl, did renew strength and did drag their brethem through the waters of the millrace. OCTOBER 23.— Yea, and it came to pass that Edward did call the Brighamites together and did instruct them in the ways that they were to follow, and did pledge his guiding power unto them. And it came to pass that many among them did delight in great speech making, yea, these did meet together and did organize a society called Debating. OCTOBER 26.— And the hosts of Call, Beckstead, Walker and Hanchett did meet and choose a leader that they might be distinguished from their brethren. Yea, they did choose a leader, one Hyrum, and these followers of Hyrum were called Hyrumites. OCTOBER 28.— Yea, the things which the Brighamites did were so great in number that it was found necessary to appoint two, even Loren and Isaac, to record in a great book the record of the people. NOVEMBER 5.— And it came to pass that the Chief Judge George did speak great things concerning eternal life. NOVEMBER 6.— Behold, upon this day the Brighamites did hold a meeting and the war of the nations on the Eastern continent was dis- cussed by Brothers Hinckley and Eggertsen. Yea, and in the eve of that day the Finlaysonites did give a festival of dancing and fun making, and they did invite the hosts of Brigham. NOVEMBER 7.— And it came to pass that this being a bountiful year all the grain and fruits were brought together and exhibited by Amos. And upon the evening of this day one, a great man skilled in picture making did meet vnth the hosts of Brigham and did entertain them with much of his work. NOVEMBER 13.— Yea, the time did come for the Brighamites to honor the birthday of their great prophet, Joseph F. Smith, and they did meet in their Hall and praised him with song and speech. Now it came to pass that the Callites raised a mighty sign on the build- ing, one which told of a great festival, Yea, even one of music and dancing. Now the Becksteadites declared that the Callites had too much sign room, even so that none was left for them. A great emd mighty con- 161 flict ensued, Yea, the two tribes did scale walls and tear banners. After much disturbance peace was restored by the unwaring brothers. Yea, all did forget their hatred and did meet and dance in the Callite ' s camp. NOVEMBER 15. — A great and mighty apostle, one James E. Talmage, did lecture to the Brighamites, and great and wonderful were his doc- trines. NOVEMBER 16. — Now it came to pass that the paper which did tell the Brighamites of all the school happenings did not come forth at this appointed time and there was much unrest until the press was mended and the paper appeared.

NOVEMBER 25. — And it came to pass that there was great excitement among the hosts of Brigham. Yea, it was the day of their great Cross-Country Run Festival. And it happened that a man by the name of Hales who had for two previous years won this event, finished first. Great was the excitement when it was rumored that the Finlaysonites had won the roasted turkey. But it came to pass that after the Finlay- sonites had feasted upon the great bird, it was learned that it rightly be- longed to the Stringhamites. Great battles ensued in which the String- hamites were victorious. Yea, they were so puffed up in the pride of their hearts, but not their stomachs, that they demanded a turkey to be bought for them.

DECEMBER 12. — There were two teams selected from the hosts of Brigham to represent this people. They were to combat with other teams of the land in a game known as basketball. The Weberites of the North sent into the midst of the Brighamites a team which was much beaten by a team representing the later. But the other team of the Brighamites was defeated by the Groveites.

Yea, an opera composed by a Mrs. Bonnin and a Mri Hansen. Great was the interest taken in this Lamanitish production, and many came from far lands to see it. There was one Ida Thorn, of the hosts of Brigham, but once of a far- away land, even Samoa, did talk eloquently before the people assembled. Yea, she was given a medal for her eloquent work.

QUALITY FOR SERVICE AT THE BRIGHAM YOUNG UNIVERSITY 170 The Commercial and Educational Center (By Jacob Coleman, City Attorney.) I am asked to write in 500 words something about Provo City. Why, Mr. Editor, it would require the genius of a Lord Bacon to compress into such brief space the th ' ou- sand-and-one interesting features of our beautiful city. No one can write of Provo without mentioning as the chief contributing factor in Its up-building; your excellent University. I have had the privilege of attending one of the most richly endowed universities in the world, and I feel qualified in a measure to appreciate the splendid achievements of your institution and its great value to this city. While the thousands of dollars that are annually spent here by students and professors contribute in no small way to the growth of Provo, your highest asset to this com- munity is the educational leaven you give to it. By your athletic and debating con- tests, your lecture courses, your refined social amusements, your dramatics, your high- class musicales, you furnish the very life of this city,— a life that is intellectual, elevat- ing, and inspirational. In return for all this, the officers of Provo City are not unappreciative or ungrate- ful. It is their ambition to make this city, the seat of your learning, one of the most ideal university towns in the whole West. They purpose to surround your institution v.-ith a clean, moral environment, so that every parent will say: That is the place where I want my son and daughter to attend college. The chief of police and his lynx-eyed officers never sleep, and are the terror of bootleggers and other violators of the law; consequently there are no dens of iniquity to lure the student into forbidden paths; and Provo City is regarded the State over, as one of the freest from vice and crime. Provo City recognizes that the Brigham Young University is not a rich man ' s col- lege, but a place where any young man or woman, no matter how poor, who has ambi- tion, may enter and become fully equipped for life ' s duties; and for this reason, the city commission has never required a license fee from any boarding place housing ' students. Every year scores of families move to Provo primarily to take advantage of its educational opportunties; and, who, becoming enamored of its many other attractive features, decide to reside here permanently. And well may Provo be considered a de- sirable place to live. With its beautiful canyons and picturesque mountains on the east, and its large fresh water lake teeming with fish on the west, with canals full of water and gushing artesian wells everywhere, wth a soil and climate that produce almost any product that the appetite of man can crave, with an inexhaustible supply of pure, ice-cold water for culinary purposes, with a magnificient sewer system, with a highly efficient commission form of government that does things, with electrical and water power amply sufficient to propel the machinery of ' hundreds of factories, with the Strawberry project bringing under cultivation thousands of acres of land, with ' sugar factories springng up everywhere, with its largest woolen mills in the West, and with electrical and steam roads centering here, surely the commercial metropolis of Utah County and the educational center of the State, should commend itself to the pros- pective graduate when he casts about for a competence and a home. 171 The Utah Agriculture College offers to the graduates of the Normal School and the High School and to College men and women exceptional opportunities for advanced training in Agriculture, Home Economics, Agri- cultural Engineering, Commerce, Mechanic Arts, and General Science. Broad and liberal in- struction is given in the natural and physical sciences and in mathematics, English, economics, literature, and languages. The Degree of Bachelor of Science is given upon completion of the College courses. Short practical courses are given in all departments of the institution, for those who do not wish, on account of age and other conditions, to take the regular College and High school work. The College especially appreciates affiliation with the clean and virile minded young men and women who are to become the leaders of tomorrow.

Yea, costly raiment was exhibited and great was the amount of jewelry worn by one of the daughter of the Brighamites. Yea, even one Norma did appear with the choicest gems, the diamond, and she did wear the ring on the finger that signifies engagement and great was the wonder of many, not knowing whether it be a gift from Santa or from Bullock. JANUARY 7-8-9.— Now it came to pass that Anthony did come again with his Lamanites in song and dance and did entertain the Brighamites. JANUARY 9. — The Brighamites were greatly grieved because of the death of their noble son, Hayward Marshall. JANUARY 12.— Now the hosts of Brigham, led by George, did study diligently concerning the learning of great men, even one Shakespeare who wrote plays, and they did invite a company from the East to play for them one of his plays, As You Like It. Those who performed were called Ben Greet Players. 173 1 JANUARY 13. — Now it came to pass that one Elsie, who had gone with one of the sons of the Brighamites, but had neglected him for the space of many moons, did again return to him, this Sterling. JANUARY 15.— And yea, one day it came to pass that Maud May Bab- cock, a woman from the great University of the North, yea, the Univer- sity of Utah, did read a great play to the hosts of Brigham. The name of the play was Caesar and Cleopatra. Yea, the same night did the College Basketball team meet the Appollo- ites from American Fork and many quick movements were made and great was the skill that was displayed in this game, even that the team of the Brighamites did return home without any laurels. JANUARY 16. — Now the Appolloites did come to the gymnasium of the Brighamites for a game, and behold the large team of the College men did take the laurels away from the Appolloites and great was the rejoicing of the Brighamites. JANUARY 22. — The school was again brought to sorrow because of the death of one of the beloved daughters of the Brighamites, Miss Laurel McCarty. JANUARY 29.— And it came to pass that one of the Chief Judges, yea, even one Edvirin was chosen to go into the north country and care for a group, some of the youth of Zion who had been very seriously neglected by their parents. And it came to pass that the hosts of Brigham did meet and give great blessings and praises to this man. Yea, he was given feasts and banquets; watches and suit cases. The Harrisites did all meet and dance and sing before the departure of this brother and great was the sorrow when he left. JANUARY 30.— And it came to pass that the Brigham Young College from the North did send their boys to meet the Brighamite boys in basketball, and the latter did win from the B. Y. C. FEBRUARY 7. — And the first semester of the school year did end and the students did draw a long breath of relief when they learned that all semester examinations were at an end.

Many people have expressed surprise at the remarkable showing made by the Gas Company in its first season. Yet it was not remarkable. It was the only logical thing to be expected. Why should any woman cook by any other method — old or new — when she can cook more quickly, at less cost, and have better and more wholesome food by using a modern Gas Range. A Gas Range costs half as much as any other kind and does the work in half the time at half the expense. Ask our cixstomers. The advice of the Gas Company ' s representative is yours for the asking.

Professor Maw, examining his chemistry class, asked the question: Suppose you were called to attend a patient who had swallowed a heavy dose of oxalic acid; what would you administer? There was silence in the room for some seconds, for none of the pupils knew the answer. Finally Ole Call murmured, as a sort of suggestion, rather than a solution : The Sacrament. — Ex. Martin Mortensen to Prof. Chamberlain in Psychology, after Brother Chamberlain had finished explaining a particular phase of the discus- sion: Brother Chamberlain, I see that you agree with my explanation of the subject. Yes, that is so, replied the Professor. I am glad to know that, responded Mortensen. For the first time during the year we have agreed upon a question. Yes, that is true, replied Brother Chamberlain, very seriously, and it almost makes me think that I am wrong. — Ex. A student entered the Students ' Supply Office one day and said to Rondo Anderson, who was standing at the counter: Let me have, please, the letters of Charles Lamb. The postoffice is right down the street, five blocks, Mr. Lamb, said Rondo with a brisk smile. We have a student in the B. Y. U. who was bom and brought up on a farm, and he had the habit of always going round with his mouth open, especially if there was anything of importance going on. One day an uncle whom the boy had not seen for years paid the place a visit. Hullo, Uncle! said the boy, looking up at him with his mouth opened like a bam door. The uncle looked at him for a moment without answering, and then said: ' Close your mouth, sonny, so I can see who you are. Prof. Osmond, in English Class. — Daw, do you know Poe ' s Raven ? Daw. — Why, no; what ' s the matter with him? Prof. Osmond (looking very angrily). — Well? Daw (trembling). — Quite well, thank you, sir. Student. — I want my hair cut. Barber. — Any special way? Student.— Yes, off. — Ex. 182 OUR PROFESSION IS BUYING AND SELLING FRUITS PRODUCE IN CAR LOAD LOTS OR LESS FOR CASH Get in touch with us, when vou want to trade You will be money ahead JKe Wm. M.

Contemplate the labor performed in the preparation of copy for the reading matter and illustrations, and don ' t forget to say a word of appreciation to those of your acquaintances who performed a labor of love in its preparation. Imagine, if you can, the careful technical handling a work of this standard must receive from the printer-architect, the engraver, the compositor, the proof reader, the pressman and the book binder. Picture to yourself an establishment with knowledge and facilities sufficient to produce a book so pleasing in materials, typography and color harmony. Then compare your mental picture with the real thing by calling on us and taking a trip through our departments. You will be amply repaid if you are not entirely familiar with modern printing and binding machinery.
