Twenty-five years ago this coming September Buena Vista College opened its doors to the -young men and women of northwest Iowa. In those twenty-five years' nearly four thousand students have spent months or years in definite relationship with its faculty and curriculum. Today the sons and daughters of B. V. C. may be found in every walk of life and working out its problems on three continents. Born in the hearts of the leaders of Presbyterianism in northwest Iowa, it has ever been the aim of those in charge of the affairs of the college to keep it in active sympathy and cooperation with movements, lives and ideas evangelically Christian. Testifying to the success of that policy many of those who have been at Buena Vista have gone out to take the places of leadership in various forms of Christian activity. Recognizing at the same time the time-honored and time-tested truth that Christian and intellectual cultures may and should be blended'harmoniously to mutually greater effectiveness the educational phase of the institution's life has been nurtured and strengthened until the college has high recognition from both denomination and state in its work as a school. With a firm holding to the fundamental principles involved in the work of a Chris- tian college and with an open and responsive mind to all real advances in intellectual knowledge and discipline, Buena Vista, rejoicing in all the good of the past, looks confidently to a greater good and a larger efficiency in the future. To the past twenty- Hve years we sayt God b' wi, yeg to the approaching twenty-five we say, Good morn- ing, and may your evening record still larger, richer and more rugged conquests of life's forces by the men and women who, tarrying within its walls for a time, have caught a vision of the gleam enshrined in the ideals of Buena Vista College.

C. 67 This year's football season was of entire satisfaction to everyone concerned. Coach Ball, former Purdue star, sent his eleven out against the teams of larger schools and with only two exceptions the score divided so that the Salmon and Black got the greater share. One of these exceptions came about by a steal and the other was with a team which we had previously beaten. V The only sad feature of the season was the sad death by drowning of Coach Ball. Buzz, as he was known by his friends, was always cheerful, and his happy smile did much to encourage the fellows. Hexwon favor from all because of his gentlemanly conduct and his unassuming ways, and when he met his death it was in .an attempt to help a fellow-skater. It can only be said that he did it in the Ball way. The team, the fellows, the school can only gain by the association with him. The season opened with a game with Ellsworth college at Iowa Falls. The date was early and the men were mostly new. Our backlield was superior to,that of our opponents, but our line had I1Ot gotten the knack of getting down low yet. The Ells- worth team, for three years conference champions, were mighty lucky to get off with a 7-to-7 tie, and their touchdown was made by a slip-up at that. l 1 1 7 T H E R U D D ll. W 'el THTT Til' Ulxlll R 'til The second game was on the home held and the Salmon and Black was pitted against the heavy W7ayne Normal team. The visitors were fine fellows. The game was scrappy and interesting from the start. Dawson of the Wayne team was unfor- tunate in receiving a badly fractured jaw. The final score stood 26 to 6 for B. V., Fulton and Cheney doing the scoring. ' The next game was with Dubuque college, and it sadly lacked all of the elements which go to make up true sportsmanship. The visitors started to show off their orato- rical abilities at once. They-sure were a husky-lunged bunch when it came to howling. Buena Vista scored by a forward pass only to lose the count by the decisions of an in- capable odicial. ln fact, if the management had only known it they might have saved the expense of that oHieial by letting the visitors do the work. The game closed with the disputed score standing 12 to 6 and B. V. threatening to score again. The fourth game was very likely the prettiest game of the season to watch. Yankton met us on our own grounds and they came, fought hard and gamely, and lost, 14 to 0. Capt. Cheney received a badly wrenched knee. Buzz next led his men out to do battle with the Wayne team on that far-off Nebraska field. Cheney and Aitken were out with injuries. Everyone else took an dff day and we lost, 25 to 3. Fulton booted the ball nearly forty yards from a didicult angle for our only count. The Trinity game was a rough and ready fight clear through, with B. V. getting the small end of the decisions. We won, 18 to lil. V The season closed on Turkey Dayu when Kewatin invaded our camp. Kewatin was much cracked up but the game was a huge joke. Even our second string men romped away with them. We beat them 67 to O. The team was undoubtedly the best that Buena Vista has ever put out. We placed well up in the Hawkeye Conference. We played teams of larger schools and beat them. We started in with a new team and only one man will be lost by graduation. f'Big Johnl' Fulton has been chosen captain for next year. Things look lovely for our football fans. The season's write-up would not be complete without a mention of the Scrubs The second string men gave the first team excellent scrimmage-all through the season. They took the hard knocks without much of a taste of the glory. Qnly one game was scheduled for them. They beat the high school team of Peterson 12 to O. ,W .nm V,H1H1111.U,ii.,,,,,,.,,,,,,wu,.,,,wi, .,.W,,,, an an H ,, nm ii www in,U.mn..inwWmwn,--fmmn-11 , THE RUDDER EQET Hf1irm.n..nin..nnnn W.H.v.Www,,..iw,,-no1w'n.mWi..,-W.,.m,,i,,.iH H ,W CAPTAIN CHANEY rcGe1ly:: Captain Chaney's headwork in running the team at quarter won us many points. Fast on his feet, and very quick in side-stepping, he was a great open field runner and a good ground gainer going down under forward passes. He was responsible for much of the scoring. Gelly was misfortunate in wrenching an ankle in the Yankton game but nevertheless he played in the last three games. This was his second year at B. V. and he will be with us again next fall.

He came to us from Peterson. His size soon won him a place. George is a sure tackler and could be depended upon to spill the others' plays, He had a knee twisted in the Ellsworth game and this bothered him some. He played at left guard and left tackle. Will be back next fall. Won his HBH. Bill Aitken, better known as Red , played right tackle. He got away in good shape and was a terror to the opposing team's offense. He made several good gains in tackle back plays. A broken wrist and twisted ankle put him out of the game in the last part of the season. Won his HB . i- . JOHN PARKHILL' John Parkhill, a new man, started the season at left end. In the latter part of the season however he was shifted to left half. John was a good ground gainer and a speedy man. Next year's team may be sure of him making a good showing. Won his HB . 1 .1 H mm., .. mm!-ium uw-imimmm.11umm11Hmm:.1111i.wiiWi,,.:..,wu ...H-.ai -- -.

He is speedy and full of nerve and at once at- tracted attention. He took Aitken's place at right tackle in the last three games. Loots lacked experience this year but will make good material for the 1916 team. TORKELSON Torkelson played in the back field and as substitute center. He was the only .man to see every game played ' this last fall as not only did he make every trip with the team but also he took the trip with the second team. Torkl' did not get into any of the games long enough to quite earn him a letter but he deserves the credit of hav- ing always played his part Well. STOCK Stock played a great game at fullback. He is light but speedy and full of that thing called grit. His tack- ling was sure and hard. As a ground gainer he was de- pendable at all times. Won his HB . '917 THE RUDDER SWANSON . Fritz played his game at right guard. His size gave him strength in the line. He played his position in good shape. Of a generally good temper it took some time to Work him up to the fighting pitch but then the opponents had to Xvatch out. Won his B , A W BROWN Substitute Stewie started the game as yell master on the .side lines but the fever was too much for him. He played sub quarter. The Trinity game was the only game that he got much of a taste of this year although he. did play in the second Wayne game. Brown is a sure and ,speedy tackler. A FULTON Captain-elect Big John was the star of the'season. He is probably the best man that ever vvore the Salmon and Black uniform. He played right half and defensive full back. His 197 pounds of muscle and bone crashed through the line of every team we played for good gains. He is speedy in circling the ends, a good forward passerland equally good at receiving passes as Well. John is a good punter and accurate in drop kicking, He played every game clear through and scored the greatest number of points of any man on the team. Will be back. Won his MBU.

He is a sure passer and it is to his credit that there was not a single fumble between him and Chaney all the season.

He held down right guard in all but the Dubuque and Yankton games when he was out with a torn ligament in his ankle.

Nothing could have been prettier than the Dance of the Seasons preparing for the May Fete proper. Then came the Queen with her attendants and subjects. After crowning the Queen, the Various dances took place before the throne, ending with the always beauti- ful llday-Pole Dance. The variety of dances from the graceful ballet to the awkward yet rhythmical Dutch dance made the program especially enjoyable. ,The Juniors served a delightful supper 'tn the campus, and the day closed with a program in the chapel. 1 ..,, mm ww,mw,mw .-fm W ,N 1 1, W lxlf 'Vi RUDDER CHAPEL ORCHESTRA 1 J 1 T T H li R ll D D E R I '72 1 umm W...,r,m.r..,w..m. ii,,,...,,u . , ,. .

He is proud of his German ancestry. He is part lvVelsh, but he does not wish anyone to know it. Little is known of his early education except that it was received in the public schools of Sioux Rapids. lVhile there he exerted a great influence on the faculty, so that upon his graduation he was advised to come to Buena Vista that he might have his latent abilities developed. He has spent three years in Buena Vista and that remarkable tendency to be ornery has been completely developed. If anyone wishes further information write to the College Bookstore and purchase com- plete biography. LILLIAN ANGELA SHERMAN noted instructor in the Truesdale public schools, was born April 19, 18-. She traces her ancestry back to an English nobleman, however, she is no relative of our History professor. Her education was received in Storm Lake, graduating from Storm Lake High school with the famous class of 'l3. During her two years at Buena Vista she held many offices, all of which she filled with credit. She is an A No. 1 librarian and as an untrained school teacher she cannot be surpassed. Her musical ability has caused her to be in great demand at weddings and literary society programs. Next year she will edit a book on Hllflethods of Teaching in Truesdalef' lVlAR-IQRIE PERKINS commonly known as Perk, began life in Churdan, Nov. 19, 18-, and continues to live in physical strength and vigor. VVhen asked to tell her nationality she replied that she was a Duke's lllixture, although' she might 'be Yankee. Her education was obtained in Churdan. She has had much experience teaching school, and has spent several years at Buena Vista. She possesses a cunning little laugh which always reveals her presence. Otherwise she is very quiet and reserved. It is this gentleness of character that makes her particularly attractive- to a certain young man. ILDYNARD GREGORY CROUCH head janitor of Buena Vista College, was born Aug. 1, 184, in Sac county, Iowa. He does not know what nationality he is, and since he does not know, and his brother does not know, no one at Buena Vista knows it. His education was started at Auburn and is to be completed at Buena Vista. He is a very quiet young man who never stays out late at night. Last year the Styx were somewhat worried about him because they thought he was going to be hit by a HStone. However, it was only a 'KPebble and didnlt have much effect. Hie has been waiting for 1916 to come and has now resigned the manly duties of courtship, and is leaving that part to the ladies. 1917 THE RUDIDER 1921 1 ...1uu..mi.,.,-.i,i..,,..iW.,..1,. 1 .1,.,,....v.w i.1ii.u1,u.mii..iu if i.,,iu,...1., .. .1 ...,,,,u, AMY ELLA VAN CLEVE a typical Styx, was born in Washiiigton Township, Buena Vista County, Iowa, April 16, in a certain year. After migrating through Scott, Lincoln and Elk Townships she settled in Stoiini Lake. She receives a few German characteristics from her name, but her obstinate disposition comes from her ancestors by the name of Smith. Her education was received in Hve different country schools under eleven different teachers. When she came to Storm Lake she settled down and finally graduated from Storm Lake High School in the class of '13. She hopes to finish at Buena Vista in '17 if the Annual business does not prohibit it. She has held many responsible positions to the best of her ability. She is for wasb editor-in-chief of the RUDDER and would advise all future classes to dis- pense with that office. SHIRLEY EDITH HARPER was born at Le lWars, Sept. 9, l8-. She has the distinction of being Scotch-Irish. She was a very lovable little child when young, but upon becoming older she became addicted 'Eg quar- reling. She was educated in Marctis and Storm Lake, also graduating in the class of 'l3. She has had the experience of teaching in a country school, but does not speak very highly in its favor. She has a very bad habit of telling the truth, which habit may be overcome by association with the Styx. At present she is one of the library as- sistants and as an amateur occasionally drops a whisper in the library. She is a good student and has good talking ability. ADA LUCILLE HOLMES treasurer of the I. P. A., a devout temperance worker, was born in VVashington Township, Buena Vista County, lowa, Sept. 18, in the year which only her immediate family knows. You will not believe it, but she is both lrish and German. It is the Irish that makes her so jolly, and the German that gives her that love of eating that makes her so fat. Her education was -received in and about Alta. While in high school she was the instigator of all pranks. Since coming to Buena Vista she has become very ladylike and reserved. These tendencies have merely revived and not developed, for in her infancy she was a very good baby. She has the honor of being the first alumnus from the Home Economics department of Buena Vista College. Besides these qualifications she has traveled and has taught school. At present she is an active member of The Gang. f f'wf'2', n 0 in sd'a3'.e.ene?ng .af 9L?gg2s.'4' l tlil- Ri ITIUPR KIYJI Snookums 'fBubble, bubble, toil and trouble, ' Fire burn and cauldron bubble. Such was the song of the hooded creatures as they circled the fire with its hanging kettle. Could they never cease their senseless jargon, l wonder. They paused and their circling was reversed and at the same time their song was changed: Snookums, Snookums, tooth and bottles, lVIamma coos and Snookums chuckles. I drew near, for the name was familiar to me, and I listened attentively as one of them began to speak: l hovered about the heads of the Sophomores, when that name was given. I thought a sensible name was to be bestowed and of course my success is measured by the degree of incongruity. They started the year with eighteen members, two left them when they came to the halfway line. They have spent a happy year together, but the days have not all been spent with palms in their handsg some days they carried sprigs of cypress, and dashed the salt tears from their eyes as three of their members turned for a time from the sunshine to the shadow. It is possible to find every type of disposition among them. Do you know anything as to the ability of the class F Another witch began to speak: I went at the beginning of the year and thought I would blight any buds of promise. But the good spirits of eloquence, music and spir- ituality had forestalled me. She of the silver tongue touched the lips of one and he went to the State Oratorical Contest. She of the deep soul touched the hearts of six others and they went out on the Gospel Team, and worked, and won. Five others from the class fought the battle of words on the Intercollegiate Debating Teams. The members of the College Quartette are also in the class. But do they H11 their time with singing, playing and talkingg do they have no fun ? One who had been silent thus far began to speak: Funl They have in their class the funniest man in the school. At the beginning of the year the Freshmen thought they would spend the day at Sioux Rapids. The Snookums love variety, and it galled them to think of one town being all-seaweed-color, so they went out in automobiles and captured a few of the species and scattered the green- from Sioux Rapids to Juniata. fFreshmen were like pumpkins spreadl. One night they wanted to give the world an exhibition of their artistic skill, and painted on the College roof a mighty 'l8. They laughed just as much when they rubbed it off as when they put it on. The Freshmen surprised them one night as they came from the picture show, but Snookums stood trussing up with a smile. Good will prevailed through everythingf, She ceased speaking, and once more the circling of the Hre commenced and again the song: f'Snookums, Snookums, don't you cryg You'll be a Junior by and byf, lflli ikll' lllllliffli Veil A ,. ,.f , , .

The Hrst days were occupied with the process of readjustment to our new environ- ment. As all bands must have a leader, we organized our class. George Diehl was chosen president, Esther Aitken vice-president, Marie Doxsee secretary and treasurer, and -john Fulton our member of the Student Council. On Wednesday night we assembled at Don Ambler's armed with paint and brushes. We left our marks on all the walks, and then proceeded to the park. The Sophomore boys followed and a scrape ensued. A wrestling match was pulled off among the boys, after which the Sophomores, tired out, departed and did a little painting of their own. We followed soon, and after some repainting, all but two, who stayed to keep guard, left for home. We left for the Sioux Rapids woods on our Skip Day picnic next morning with Mabel McLaughlin as chaperone. The Sophomores wished to hinder us but were too slow. After a pleasant day in the woods we returned to town, and spent the time en- joying the sights. Four strolled away and enjoyed a free ride given by the Sophomore boys. This saved them a few pennies, and gave them an enjoyable walk. The class finally gathered at the Milxxfaukee depot, and then started forth to find the Sophomores. Meanvvhile the Sophomores were enjoying the special Elm, little dreaming of their future entertainment. We awaited them before the Empire and a struggle followed, with victory at last in the Freshman ranks. The Sophomores were game and led the way to the Greeks'. Afterwards both Freshmen and Sophomores went down to the lake shore, where we sang songs and gave college yells in a truly amicable manner. Rubies are precious, rubies are fine. Our president found them rather expensive When he sprained his ankle for one. The hostilities of the two classes were soon forgotten, and a joint picnic was enjoyed along the lake shore. On November 22 we gathered at the home of Jennie Peterson and helped her cele- brate the fact that she was now her own boss. J I T 'li' H Tel R, l' D D B R 'j U Q After Thanksgiving, three new members, Robert Beatty, Lael DeLand and Edmond Roberts, were added to our class. Robert Beatty left us after the Christmas holidays. VVe became a real member of the Buena Vista family on December 3, when the Sophomores, because of our size and strength, gave us the name of Pachyderm. The Sophomores, by giving us the name Pachyderm, proved that they had not received much benefit from Wooleyf, who calls it a hackneyed newspaper expression. At 7:30 on the evening of December 10, we met at Don Ambler's and then pro- ceeded to the home of llflarie Doxsee to help her celebrate her birthday. We then tramped through the snow to the movies, and back again for the eats. ln a meeting one morning after chapel, maroon and old gold were chosen for our colors. ln that same week the Seniors gave us our colors at, the lcolor ceremony. After this we were full-Hedged college students, having both our name and colors. One morning after the holidays, llflarie Doxsee, our treasurer, resigned her job. It was then decided to trust our extensive funds to Lucile Slagle. ln order to celebrate the fact that examinations were over, we went on a bob ride and then returned to the Slagle home to celebrate Lucile's birthday, which came during the examinations. At the beginning of the second semester, Mary Chapman and James Wise changed their seats from the Academy row and now sit with us. Shortly after the beginning of the second semester we were saddened by the death of one of our number. Jessie Brown, one of the best members of our class, died in Sioux City after an operation for appendicitis, February lO., Jessie was loved and revered by all her classmates, and her influence will long remain with us. We could not close the history of the Pachyderms without telling that our Student Council member is next year's football captain and that we had six men out for foot- ball last fall, while three were on the intercollegiate debating teams this winter. Al- though we are so awkward and large, we can still boost for a better Buena Vista. The remainder of our deeds will be left for some future historian.

Important, Rush! It was a thin, bluish-g1'ay letter addressed to lXfIiss Katherine Pirce. The postmark was Ilflinneapolis, Minnesota. In the lower left-hand corner were the words Im- portant! Rush! The postmaster of the little Missouri town held the letter up close to his near- sighted eyes and looked at it reiiectively. This ain't the day for her lVIinneapolis letter to comef, he said. K'Beside it ain't his wrintingf' Then, noticing the words in the corner, his attitude changed from one of curiosity swiftly to one of alarm. I'll bet it's bad news about her beau. Most' likely he's sick and his folks are sending for her. Sho' now! Poor little thing! I reckon no one will be in for the mail this afternoon, seeing as how it's not the regular day for her letter to come. If she has to go home, I reckon the sooner she gets the letter the better. Hey, Tom! to a boy who had just entered the postoHice. Do you know where Miss Pirce stays? Well, there's a letter here marked 'Important', and I'm afraid it's bad news of her beau. Can you take it out to the farm ? ' Tom assented eagerly. The whole village was agog with curiosity about the pretty summer boarder on the King farm, and all the boys in town were her devout worship- pers. - I'll take it, Mr. Crosby, he said. Then he stopped. Oh, I promised mother I'd fix the henhouse roof this afternoon, but I'll get John to take it. He fled down the street, almost knocking down Mrs. Meggs, who was coming out of her gate. Matter, Tom? she asked. Important letter for Miss Pirce. Crosby thinks it's bad news of her beau. Nlrs. Meggs hurried across the street to a neighbor's and confided her news. A few minutes later both women could be seen hastening in different directions. Meanwhile Tom had reached home and had burst into the house shouting, Hi, john, here's a letter for lVIiss Pirce. Bad news of her beau. Take it as far as Murphy's and get Jake to go on with it. John needed no second bidding. The sleepy village was soon behind. I-Ie left the dusty road and struck off across the field. Once he stumbled and fell, but he was up in a moment, coughing the dust from his nostrils. On he sped. Breathless and excited he reached the Murphy farm. ,Iake! he gasped to the boy by the machine shed. Important'letter for lVIiss Pirce. Her man's hurt or dead. You take it on. With a shout of explanation to his mother, Jake sprang over the fence and was off. His heart thrilled with the importance of his errand. He pictured telling the boys about it, of what he had said and of how she had acted. He felt like a crusader-or at least like he thought a Crusader should'feel. His own knowledge of the subject was 1'ather hazy. He had reached the road leading to the farm-house when a stern voice demanded What are you doing here, young man ?, 7 Y 1 I I ' T 'H Ii' R ii ' W . .ii ,.,uDUkTt f He looked up to see the young minister from the village. Anxious to prove the worthiness of his errand, Jake gasped: Bad news-her beau -hurt, maybe dead. Whose beau hurt we demanded the minister and Jake explained. And you would have rushed in and told her this way! Why, the shock might have killed l1C1'.H ' Jake hung his head abashed. He fancied himself convicted of murder and hanged. I'I1 go in and break the news gently, said the minister, striding up the driveway. A The Rev. Charles Greenfield had cherished a secret, and up to this time, a hopeless admiration for the pretty city girl all summer. But when he stood before her, his words came haltingly, There has been an accident-at Minrieapolis-and I'm afraid -er-that is-I fear your fiance is seriously injured. Here is a letter. HA' letter! Tearing open the envelope, she scanned the letter 'hurriedly and read :- Miss Katherine Pirce. A A Dear Madaniz- Qur line of fall suits is now complete. We are sending samples under separate cover. Trusting we may receive an early order, we are Very sincerely, A. T. Atkinson Co., lllinneapolis, lVIinn. Relieved but puzzled, Katherine picked up the envelope and examined it. Then she realized that the A. T. Atkinson Co. had adopted a new scheme for advertising. MARGARET MAY STONE, 'lo D. S. lt.

Oh Dub, had you but been so wise And taken this good sound advice, You'd never dreamed of witches bold, On you this story would not have been told. They were all there, every one, Dub, Dennie, Dimples and the rest brimming with fun, The show had been good, the hour was early, All was just right for the rabbit party. Dennie the chef, assisted by Dub, Made the stew fit for a club. The rest opened the olives, grated the cheese, Found the crackers and tried the cooks to please. At last, All's ready, was pronounced by the cooks, From parlor and den forth theyuscurried from nooks. Each found a dish and a spoon, and impatiently waited To be helped the amount his appetite sated. Last but not least Dub was served, It goes without saying, he much credit deserved. After some difficulty, he had secured a nappy, HI-Ialf full, he said to the waiter, quite snappy. The laugh that followed disturbed him not For he knew, he deserved more than he got. VVith jokes, laughs, and banter the time quickly past, A college song and Good-nights were said at last. Each reveler went his way home and to bed, The night was quiet as if all were dead. Not so with Dub-as if all were dead,- His sleep was vague, confused, full of dread. Then all at once something tugged at his hand, Yes, tugged and dragged him out over-land, As if by superhuman strength, It dragged him faster and faster 'til at length, He caught sight of some one he seemed to recall. Nearer, 'twas Dennie and he endeavored to call, Come on, Dennie, the bunch is bound for the land of But if Dennie heard, she did not heed, not a bit. 'rabbit THE RUDDER On and on ever faster, 'til his feet left the earth. Harkl what was that? Was it a sound of mirth? Now 'twas black midnight, and struggling with all his might, He found himself helpless in such a fright. On they rushed, the sounds increasing, To the right they turned on a sight more pleasing. Dainty little elfs in a gleam of moonlight, Now here, now there, to the left, to the right, S0 lightly, gracefully, and merrily around the queenis throne They danced. Aren't the 'rabbits' here ? said Dub, with a moan. But no! On and on they sped on their rough path, Up hill, through dale, over stones and through briers, rousing his wrath The wind blew as 'twould have blown the last, The rattling showers rose on the blast, V The speedy gleams the darkness swallowed, in Loud, deep, and long the thunder bellowed. The hills grew to mountains with rocks strewn thickly, In the distance appeared a light, lurid and sickly, Up hill and down hill he eagerly watched it. Now a red gleam it seemed for a bit, Now 'twas but a glow on the sky, A lull in the stormiand it loomed up high, Again, it disappeared from sight, But at the top of the hill, he saw the beckoning light. Startling cries and yells burst on his ear. Carrying a knife, a hatchet, or spear, Grotesque figures danced 'round the fire, Brandishing weapons, venting their ire. A few dangled scalplocks still reeking with gore, While their wives and children urged them for more. The flickering light played oler Coppery faces, Showing demon where all that humane is. Now rose the weird plaintive cry for their slain, Another cry and vengeance was plain. Dub grabbed a tomahawk and no doubt He would have slain all in the bout. But again he was snatched and dragged away. He wondered if it would take all the next day Their destiny to reach and what more could befall him And he really felt his mind growing dim. He thought of B. V. and of each friend And wished one might be with him at the end. Tomorrow in Chem., he was to have an exam.

It was a rabbit rich and rare With bubbles on its surface here and there, He sought his companion, but to his surprise, All he found was-well, you'd never surmise, There it stood beside him-the nappy. . To be sure it was some bigger but very happy, It smiled at him as it said, Jump in and We'll sail 'round the stew, He obeyed-but ouch! 'twas a boiling brew. Dub sitting up rubbed his eyes and mumbled, Exams todayf' The clock struck two, and back to sleep ,hen tumbled. QI, EDITH LARU ri.. l 9 l 7 H 'R I7 D D F li. '4 fl 1 fw.n.m...v,... , W ww W AM A A Climb up Pikeis Peak We had put in a long hard day sightseeing in the Garden of the Gods near Colorado Springs and it was late in the evening when we motored into Denver. I went to bed almost immediately for I was tired and we had planned a trip up the Peak for the following day. - The next forenoon, August 27, 1913, our party, consisting of four besides myself, went by auto from Denver to Manitou at the foot of Pike's Peak. We had intended to walk up,-the auto road was only completed this past summer,-but the weather looked somewhat threatening so our plans were changed. We went to the Manitou- Pikeis Peak Station and were there informed that the last train would leave in fifteen minutes. We ran the car into the nearest garage and rushed back to the depot. It started to rain just as we boarded the train, if the dinkey engine and one car could be called a train. As we went looping the loop up the mountainside, we rejoiced to think that we had taken the cog road rather than the footpath. We could see the plodding pedestrians laboriously climbing in the drizzle. As we chugged higher, the drizzle merged into snow. It quit storming altogether as we passed the Half-Way House, and by the time we reached the timber line we had passed through the clouds. Here we could see the great fleecy sponges Hoating below us while the sun shone brightly overhead. I began to have trouble getting my breath owing to the altitude. I went out on the platform and the crisp mountain air seemed to be more oxygen laden than that of the coach. From my position on the platform I could see the peak. The engine pushes rather than pulls the car. Rocks were everywhere. The tower on the Peak, although not over forty feet high, loomed up as a landmark. A little south of the tower was a black place. This, the Newsy said, was the crater. It looked black from ourposition because of the snow around. Upon our arrival we had our pictures taken and after being warned to be back on time set out to explore. We went up the steps to the observation platform and paid a man two bits for a squint at Mexico through his telescope. IVIexico was evidently no place for me. I had not yet received my quarter's worth when my nose started to bleed and I rushed down to term jfrma. I bought a couple of souvenirs at war prices and waited in the station for my companions. . Then we went to find the crater. It was an innocent looking hole about one hundred fifty yards across, and no one knows how deep. It had danger signs stuck around it but I paid little attention to them. I edged cautiously up for a peep into the abyss when suddenly the snow ledge on which I was standing caved in. I felt myself going. I snatched at a rock. It held momentarily, then it too gave way. I scrambled deperate- ly. On my left was a clump of moss, the only vegetation growing above the timber line. I clutched it frantically and Leggo my hair and quit-cher kickin' me! came rather peevishly from my bed partner. GEORGE STANZEL.

A mere boy with an overly active curiosity is the hero of the plot. In other words, he is the foolish one. A whispered meeting, an interruption, a forced oath of secrecy, and the deed was done. VVhy, the buffalo were running, those funny buffalo, you know, and running close to shore, with their backs out of the water. Where? Why, clear out at the inlet. Clubbing would be excellent. Of course, Judge, Court and the Law were opposed, so absolute secrecy was necessary. All was fixed except the getting of a few sacks, for of course the catch would be enormous. Sure, Drury would get the sacks. Why, Drury would do anything if he could only come along. . . A The night was dark, and the sky threatened rain. 'But what was a soaking to Mer- rill? He had visions of himself struggling in the water with a huge, vicious buffalo. Drury was Johnny-on-the-spot at the cave house at- midnight. T The trip across the lake was lovely. And oh, those thrilling stories of narrow escapes on former occasions! Why, H. C. was nearly drowned several times, and E. C. had his thumbnail nearly bitten off- by an enraged sucker. lVIerrill's very blood ran cold as he heard of the ferocity of the struggling fish and the great numbers of the catch. D Suddenly, someone saw a Hsh's back protruding out of the water. Others were soon discovered. Drury proved his great worth, for at once he was outseeing, outpointing and outdoing all. The inlet was reached. One pair of boots developed a leak. Merrill's small feet were the only ones that would Ht the other big, tall boots. It was disappointing to have to use a new hand, but Drury put on the boots and threw his shoes into the boat. A club was found-a mere sliver from a two-inch plank, which only measured some eight feet in length, and about two by six inches the other ways. The moment to scare up the ish came, and it was agonizing to tear away from each other perhaps never to meet on this fair, green sod again. i - Drury waded out into the damp lake and waited. He shifted the club from one shoulder to the other and peered at the dark surface of the water for a finny back. The owls warbled away at each other. Somebody's dog in somebodyls far-away yard or in somebody's neighbor's yard, barked. Then Drury saw his first fish. , The lake leaped up and hit him in the face. Drury thought himself in the clutches of a whale. Finally he caught his breath and wiped the moisture out of his eyes, pinched himself to see if he was alive and realized that his club had floated out of reach. He was alone in the darkness. He worried about the safety of the others. Minutes flew by along with some bats and other things, and still nothing was to be heard of his fellow-companions. l 9 l T H FY Il U D 1 I itwmmuwi-i.i..n .,,mi,,,i, mi , rr, , , W, ,, ,,,,., ,..,,Wr,,,u,u,.,rrur .I r , im, I , , , E R I Far out on the lake a canoe bounded over the waves on its homeward voyage and 1ts crew was enjoying many a soft chuckle.

Wheii entering the library you should always be talking loudly or whistling, or if you have little vocal talent, sing an aria from one of the latest Italian operas. This manner of entrance is very desirable, not only because it will attract the attention of everyone in the room, but it will also give you a grand entree. 2. After having slammed the door, walk to the reference shelf, assuming all the while a bored expression of disinterest, as though you had just bought the library. 3. If there is but one chair unoccupied and several persons to be seated, rush madly for it and loudly assert your right to it. If you happen to knock anybody down in the hurry, tramp on him, he should not be in the way. 4. If the temperature of the room is uncomfortable, draw your chair up to the ra- diator. No matter if you do block the way to the reference shelf, it was only put there for your special benefit, anyway. .U 5. Strike up a conversation with anybody in the library, the farthervaway he is the better. If the Librarian or any of the Student Council have the effrontery to remon- strate, freeze them with an icy stare. You have paid your tuition and are entitled to some privileges besides being Hunked. 4 6. After you are tired of annoying those about you who have been trying to study, go to the periodical shelves and browse around among the magazines awhile. Do not forget to mix them up thoroughly so that it will take the Librarian an hour or two to return them to their proper places. That is what she is paid for. 7. Wheii leaving the library, do not forget to carry out a reference book under your coat. You have a perfect right to take it, and it will keep several of your class- mates from getting their assignments. Do not worry if you should happen to lose it. The Library Committee enjoy raising money to replace lost books, and someone else may only have lost it anyway. ' JOHN FULTON, 'l9. DIET CLUB President .... ......
