It is also our desire that the pages of this book, in years to come will enliven the memories, and stimulate the thoughts of the students of 1925 toward their Alma Mater. i i i k M i-.Jii...ii;: i, V;frfukfe?f -‘ft' -• jfevjf M.

The Staff The Cedrus Staff of 1924-25 began the arduous task of producing an up to date college annual, in fear and trembling. As a staff we confessed our inexperience. But with a will to be «if real service to our Alma Mater we ac- cepted the task shunned by many and courted by none, and we hope that our efforts have not been in vain. Thru our work on this book we have learned many valuable lessons in patience, persistence, endurance and long suffering. If however, this book in any true sense meets the real needs and measures up to the ideal of our college we the staff of 1924-25 arc well repaid for every effort ex- pended. G. LaClhde Makklh. Editor t I Poem Lax k up, look forth, and on! There's light in the dawning sky; The clouds are parting, the night is gone; Prepare for the work of the day! Fallow thy pastures lie, And far thy shepherds stray. And the fields of thy vast domain Are waiting for purer seed Of knowledge, desire, and deed. For keener sunshine and mellower rain! But keep thy garments pure; Pluck them hack, with the old disdain. From touch of the hands that stain! So shall thy strength endure. Transmute into good the gold of Gain, Compel to beauty thy ruder powers. Till the bounty of coming hours Shall plant, on thy fields apart. With the oak of Toil, the rose of Art! Be watchful, and keep us so; lie strong, and fear no foe; lie just, and the world shall know! With the same love love us, as we give; And the day shall never come, That finds us weak or dumb To join and smite and cry In the great task, for thee to die, And the greater task, for thee to live!

President Professor of Psychology, Oratory, Greek The Faculty ACH year shows changes in the personnel of Cedarville College faculty. De- spite these changes there arc two members who will be remembered by even the oldest alumna and alumni as “Our professors. Of these two one is the only person who has been on the faculty from the ojx ning day in 1894, and who for the past ten years has gu ded the altars of the College to higher and better things President McChcsney. The other one lias been with the College but one year less than Dr. McChcsney and has through these years maintained his high position as teacher and efficiently managed the finances of the College. Other members of the faculty arc of much later generations. Professors Frazer and Robison came to the College in 1922. Professor Tinker came to us in 1923. Dr. J. A. Talcott became Director of the Department of Music in 1923. Miss Koehler, Director of the Greene C unty Normal School, has in addition to her work in the Normal, rendered valua! le service to the College in the department of Education ever since the Normal School was located at Cedarville, in 1923. The most recent additions to our force arc Professors H. H. Smith, in the De- partment of Education, and ii. F. Dicdrich, Athletic Coach; and Mrs. J. W.

Our married man. 192 5 Senior History LL of us have a hope and desire that at some time in our lives, we may reach the goal that has been set before us. For four long weary years we the class of 192S, have toiled with one hope in view, that of becoming Seniors. Now that the culmination in our school life has been reached, tt is with a feeling of supreme delight that a sketch of so brilliant, so dauntless, so capable a class may l e given. Never has such a class existed in old C. C., (and never again may another of its kind exist within its walls, is the wish of our dear Profs.). We are indeed fearfully and wonderfully made. Some have poise, others avoirdupois; some have great strength, (as was so manifested when we were Freshmen. Can the upper classmen ever forget the feed «nit at Collins'?); others have atrocious appetites, which have never been nor ever can be surpassed; (ask Mrs. Cummings about the chicken feed we had when we were Juniors); some of us are more demure and even shy. Thus, these arc only a few of the characteristics or features which make us an ideal class. Tis true many are the changes that have been wrought, since we first entered old C. C. as verdant Freshmen. Our class has dwindled or increased by spurts, untfl we now number only eleven. But thru all of our trials and tribulations, and thru all these losses, we have made enough gains to make ourselves representative of merit and ability. It has been due to the President of our class, that the pep of our college has Iven retained and kept at its height, for surely he has proven a successful leader in all student activities. Again, great will be the loss to our schix ! when several of our f x)thall players will no longer be found on the gridiron. What class for four long years has lead our college in athletics? None other than those who are now dig- nified and stately Seniors. When football was revived and reorganized in Cedarville College, after a lapse of several years, some of the members of our class helped to place it back again on the high standing it had once held in C. C. athletics. There are several stars in our class that Itxun large and bright upon the literary and scholastic horizon. What previous class can boast of such a literary genius, as we have whose productions have already been accepted by well-known publications of the day? Again one of our number, although having joined our class only this year, has taen for several years recognized as a teacher of high merit and great ability in educational circles. Who can foresee what great possibilities lie within the range of this extraordinary class or to what heighth they may reach, once they have embarked upon the unchartered sea of life? D. R. O. Class Will “1925” E THE SENIOR ('LASS of One Thousand Nine Hundred and Twenty-five of Ccdarville College, of the village of Ccdarville, County of Greene, State of Ohio. United States of America, being in as sound state of mind as ever do hereby bequeath, devise and leave the following property to persons here- after designated and revoking all former wills, do hereby make, publish, swear, and declare this to be our last will and testament. First, to the Senior Class of One Thousand Nine Hundred and Twenty-six, which realizes it can never equal the class of One Thousand Nine Hundred and Twenty-five in any respect, we hereby bequeath our dignified position and title. Second, any money left we give to Professor Jurkat to lx used for purchasing peanuts and apples for next year’s classes. Third, we give our reserved seats in the chapel to the Freshmen, who we feel greatly need the said seats. Fourth, we give the right to sell candy to the Juniors. The personal bequeaths are as follows: Dorothy Oglesbee desires that her gtxxl luck in cutting chapel be left to Lena Hastings. “Walk Taylor gives his History notebook to anyone who can decipher it. Pauline Collins leaves her Ford. Hat pres, and tardy marks for first hour classes to her sister Ruth. Avanelle Brigner asks that her good luck in reducing be left to Ruth Dobbins. Carl Smith wills his natural craving to argue and converse at length, to anyone who wanders within his range. Suggestion Lawrence Douthctt. Nellie Boase leaves her good attention paid in Professor Smith’s English class to Virgil Hughes. Ruth McPherson wishes to leave her permanent wave with Ruth Burns. Lois Cummings leaves her cheerful and winning sm le to anyone who will use it as frequently as its original owner. LaClede Marklc, our class president bestows h;s moustache upon anyone who can use it and make as dashing appearance as he. He suggests Harold Ray. Last but not least we request that the memories of those four years wc spent in Ccdarville College linger with us forever. In token of which we hereby appoint as sole executor, Doc Richards to settle all claims against us. In testimony of the same wc hereby affix our name this Sixth day of June, One Thousand Nine Hundred and Twenty-five Signed, THE CLASS OF 1925 Per Avanelle Brigner « Lucili1.

Not even Dr. McChesney Or Dean Robison could Hold out against Them. They rushed Up the three flights Of stairs. Talking everything as They went. Finally they stopped in the President's room and Took a little advice and Some cards down to Prof. Jurkat. They were then full Fledged Freshmen. The usual galaxy Of feeds, bust-ups” etc. Filled the first year. Several of our numbers became Prominent in Student Activities And have been so ever since. The Sophomore year began Very cventfully And all the While They were becoming More and More Necessary to the School Until now The Sch«x l Couldn't get Along without Us. To prove This. The report got Out this fall that Our class wasn't Coming back and Dr. Mac seriously considered Closing down the School. You can take this or Leave it. We know It's So. II. E. R. The Sophomore Ranks ARK time, Sophomores, Claw halt! The Sophomore ranks arc ready for inspection. We invite all friends of Cedarvillc College to scrutinize us closely and sec if vc are not an honor to the College. Though not as great in numbers as last year, we have progressed in character. We have lost our Freshmen giddiness and greenness and our Sophomore stateliness and dignity serves as a model which other classes may do well to strive to attain. You will also observe that we still possess the same indomitable spirit that carried us to Xenia and back last year without satisfying the hunger of all tiie upper classmen, who stuck close to our heels. In our first spread as Sophs we maintained our reputation. The last morsel of salad, pineapple ice, and other delicacies had been devoured by the time the starving Frcshics and Juniors arrived. Much chargincd at their failure, they attempted to prevent our return by blocking the road. But the brawny men of our class undid their half hour's work in a mere five minutes. Glancing down our ranks you will find many celebrities. First of all our class excels in scholarship, as all the professors will affirm. Surely no class is more studious! In the athletic line we arc well represented. We have four letter men, and the star center, forward, and guard of the girl’s basket Kail team are Sophomores. Our class is also noted for its dramatic ability. When the Cedrus Play, The Boomerang, was presented, all the important members of the cast were chosen from our class. We swell with pride as we think that the President of the student body is our own class president of last year. The Y. W. and Y. M. cabinets have a liberal sprinkling of Sophomores, and five of the student instructors are from our ranks. With such a beginning, to what heights will we not have attained by the time we are Seniors! Two more years will pass quickly and we will leave Cedarvillc to brave the storms of the world. May we ever keep before us the ideals we have been taught, and strive to be an honor to those who sacrificed for us, and to our Alma Mater. Attention, Sophomores. Forward march! M. D.

It's no wonder that students and faculty threw up the’r hands in horror when about sixty of us stepped in last fall and crowded some of the Seniors out of the back scats in the chapel. Then too, that gang from across the way came with bad reputations acquired while yet in the rnfant stage. But they soon found that there was a little good with the bad and a little talent with the greenness. So much so that we ;ed to jo‘n tl,e b'terary societies, to take part in some school activities and were willingly given the front seats in classes to protect the upper classmen from blows from the professors, which wc must admit, has been so faithfully carried out that the Crown Club s already preparing for several new members. However wc were not to be outdone by any organization to which wc could not all belong, so a crown club of our own was organized which has most untiringly maintained its work all year. It as been most effective at our spreads in keeping away invaders from w'thout and our “eats within. Although our scholars stand out as shining lights we have more than onc'track minds. In fact some of our members showed up so well in athletics that one of our number was chosen as next year's football captain. They also showed up remakahly well on both the boys' and girls’ squads of basketball. It hardly seems necessary to say anything further about ourselves for our praises will be spread far and wide as soon as our rhetoric stories are completed. H. 1. were a The Seminary Ccdarville Reformed Presbyterian Seminary is an institution which is doing a noble work, in striving to supply young people with an insight into things that pertain to G xl and His relations with His marvellous creation, the universe. The Seminary is endeavoring to Ik a practical aid in revealing Jesus Christ. In doing so it presents a course of training which is thorough in all departments. Dr. W R. McChesney, the Dean, leads the students through the profound studies of Systematic Theology, Greek and Apologetics; Dr. F. A. Jurkat deals with Church History, Hebrew, and Classical Greek; Rev. B. E. Robison deals with the Bible in Archaeology and Pastoral Theology; while Rev W P. Harriman's work is in the line of Homiletics and Biblical Theology. The organization of a Gospel Team under the capable leadership of Day Kennedy, has increased greatly the practical value of the course, and incidentally pro- vides a band of earnest young men. ready and willing to carry on the Masters work. The increased attendance this year makes us feel that there are more workers for the great service. We know that Cedarvillc Seminary will provide sound, scholarly and spiritual instruction for all who wish to give their lives to the Master's work. F. W. Music Department Have you ever wondered why we are so happy at Ccdarville College? Maybe it is because we have some mus'C to mingle with our other studies. Music teaches us harmony you know. Of course you have heard of our music department, and you will hear more of it because it is increasing all the time. The enrollment of this year shows a thirty-nine percent increase over that of last year. The department is growing in more ways than one under the efficient guidance of Professor J. A. Talcott, M. A., who is now with the college for the second year. He is a graduate of the Georgia Sclux� l of Technology, the Cleveland School of Piano and the Royal College of Organists of London. He has also studied voice under Charles S. Burnham and choir direction under J. Powell Jones of Wales. Before coming here he was employed as head of the Department of Music at Bishop College, Marshall, Texas. Courses have been offered this past year in voice, piano, pipe organ and harmony. The instruction in each is given individually in forty minute periods. Every effort is being made by the professor and instructors of the department to put as much thorough work into that period as possible. A public recital is given at the termination of each semesters work for the express purpose of demonstrating the accomplishments of the department and giving the pupil an opportunity for public appearance. Upon the completion of the required work a diploma of graduation is presented to the pupil. This diploma is accepted by the college as eight semester hours credit toward the A. B. degree. It is the aim of all those connected with the department to create and attain an appreciation of the best and highest types of music. M. M. i fi ('ari. E. Smith Commercial Department Among the innovation� of the year 1924-25 is the Commercial Department, which was organized by Mr. Carl E. Smith, graduate from Miami-Jacob Business College. Mr. Smith, having adequately equipped room 12. is conducting the department independently. Altho general principles of typing and the use of the touch system was the only course called for. the following courses were offered Commercial Law, 20th Century Book-keeping and Accounting, Business Arithmetic, Business English and Salesmanship. Short-hand -Gregg Sys- tem, Typewriting—SoRellc and Cutler. It was possible for a student to get 16 hours (preparatory) credit in the Commercial De- partment. Any desiring to continue commercial work at Miatni-Jacohs Business College will re- ceive full credit for work creditably performed in the Commercial Department here. Mr Smith introduced the same texts and courses used at Miami-Jacobs, and his work is accredited there. This department was merely an experiment, and since the work was not advertised prior to the opening of college, the results have been very satisfactory. If it be continued next year and advertised, it will undoubtedly draw a much larger following, as it offers a splendid opportun- ity to combine practical commercial work with the regular college course. The following persons have availed themselves of this opportunity: Harold Myers. Wil- lard Barlow. Walker Taylor. Carson Webster. Lawrence Douthett. Roger Stormont. Avanelle Brigner, Elizabeth Creswcll, Marvin L. Williams. Kenneth Little. Richard Cooper. Carl Shanks. Merrill Weaver. Glenn Coy. Ward Creswcll, Loretta Rinker, Virginia Chamblin, Helen Somers. Annie M. Tinker, and Susanne M. Koehler. Green County Normal N A BRIGHT and sunny September day, Miss Susanna M. Koehler of Columbus, Ohio, boarded a westbound Pennsylvania train enrpute to the small pioneer village of Cedarville where she was greeted by a band of eager students who were to be under her most efficient supervision for the year 1924 1925. On Sept. 16th., ‘24, we assembled together in the north room of the basement of the new Science Hall. Miss Koehler came early armed with a large, black mysterious looking note book, which we later learned held a record in bold black letters of characteristics we believed unknown. One day near the end of the second semester as we were placing in order reference Nxiks that we had finished reading, we were startled by the exclamation from Rosetta McMillian, Oh girls just see what l vc found. and putting words into action she held high above her curly head the black forboding looking notebook. She's down at Doc’s so lets appease our long sought desire by reading it. Reference books flew every direction in the wild scramble made by the Normal girls in an effort to see the contents of the note lxx k. bearing that Miss Koehler might return any moment, Rosetta was appointed to read the book’s contents since she had found it.

H. s Features Ccdarvillc, Ohio March 12. 1925. My Dear Miss Somers, No doubt you are quite occupied with numerous duties connected with your important position out in South Dakota. We often think about you and the deep interest you manifested for all your students and liope you arc enjoying your new as- sociates. We are sure you arc still interested in the activities of your Alma Mater, so I thought you might enjoy a resume of the social functions of the past six months. Custom has decreed that one of the local churches should start the season by entertaining the students and faculty. This year the Young People's Society of the United Presbyterian Church extended their invitation first, closely followed by the Christian Endeavor Society of the Reformed Presbyterian Church. Both of these parties served to acquaint the students better and also furnished more real merriment than one could imagine who was not present to see the unique and amusing games planned for our entertainment. The men all agreed that the Y. W. C. A. proved to Ik a clever hostess at the Hallowe'en Frolic in the Gym. The Grand March presented a colorful as well as a humorous spectacle and at its conclusion prizes were awarded to Miss Evelyn Anders as Queen of Hearts and to Carson Webster and LaCledc Markle who cleverly repres- ented an odd looking quadruped said to Ik an elephant. The Faculty received the entire student body at a formal reception held at the home of Professor and Mrs. H. H. Smith, at the opening of the second semester. The music room served as the setting for a splendid program which closed with a group of vocal selections by Mrs. Carl Smith. The afterntxm of the Day of Prayer for Colleges was chosen by Misses Helen llilfe and Elcanorc Johnson to Ik at home to the girls of the College at a delightful tea. The hostesses were assisted in receiving by their mothers and Miss Webster pre- sided at the tea table. The appointments were in keeping with the Valentine season and red carnations and sweet peas lent a charming note to the rooms of the llilfe home. I)r. and Mrs. McChcsncy have invited the students and faculty to their annual party next week, and it promises to be the most enjoyable event on the social calendar of Ccdarvillc College. If this letter has awakened any pleasant memories in your mind, we trust they will take form in a letter in reply to this one. All the students of Cedarvillc Cxillcge who knew you unite in wishing you the best of everything in your new school home. Sincerely yours, Ruth McPherson. The Thirtieth Anniversary EDARVILLE COLLEGE was opened for instruction September 19th, 1894. Its work was carried on during the first year in the home erected by Dr. Hugh MacMillian seventy-five years ago. The main college hall was built during the summer and fall of 1895, and was entered early that Fall. Dur- ing the last Commencement Week, the thirtieth anniversary' of the College was appropriately celebrated. The main exercises were held on Cedar Day. Wednesday, June ?rd. President W. R. McChesncy was Chairman of the day. He and Dr. F. A. Jurkat were the only professors in the Faculty who started with the College, Dr. McChesncy being the first member of the Faculty on the ground thirty-one years ago, and Dr. Jurkat coming one year later. The alumni of the College paid them a gracious tribute in the presentation of large boquets of flowers. The speaker of the occasion was the Rev. R. Ames Montgomery D. D.. Presi- dent of Center College, Kentucky. His theme was Modern Collegiate education and the needs of the day. One of the main features of the celebration was the parade of the classes beginning with the first class of '97, and ending with the seniors of 1924 and the Faculty and the students of the various departments. Every class had some members present and some classes were fully represented. Many of the former students who had completed only a partial course returned to show their respects, as did also a number of (lu members of the faculty who had served in former years, and likewise of the Boards of Trustees. The various classes of the College went through their particular stunts; the largest crowd in the history of the institution was present to witness the exercises. The Queen of the May was Miss Grace Lyle of Marianna, Arkansas; the re- tiring queen was Miss Florence E. Smith. Miss Lyle was crowned in the presence of all the classes of the College through the years and a crowd of visitors numbering two thousand. The coronation services were beautiful and impressive. Cedarville College was established to train Kith sexes for a definite service for God and Humanity. Three Hundred graduates have been sent out from its walls; they occupy positions of trust and responsibility in all parts of the world. The Col- lege has grown from a local institution to one that is drawing patronage from ten states and two foreign countries. It has an endowment fund of $152,000. It has four buildings, 14 professors and instructors, and an enrollment this year of 228 students. Plans are afoot for the erection of a new gymnasium and a girls' dormitory, and the increase of the endowment fund to $500,000. One of the leading assets of the Col- lege has been the splendid student body, loyal, diligent and possessed of high Chris- tian aspirations. Another asset has been the faculty of Christian men and women, devoted to the ideals that make for the training of true manhood and womanhood. The College is now a community institution around which all the forces that stand for the best interests of mankind are rallying. Its past history has been one of toil, sacrifice and success. Its present purpose is to maintain what has been done, to stand for the cardinal principles of Christianity to prepare its students for every practical pur- suit of life, to give every boy or girl an opportunity, whether rich or jvxir, to secure a liberal, safe and sound education, and to forge on through the coming years to the forefront in the ranks of higher education.

Bud w x cd her in the old eloquent self-sacrificing manner and due to her seeming indif- ference to him and affections for Preston DeWitt he nearly had a complete nervous breakdown. When the physician, Dr. Sumner, took the matter in hand he got his mind off the adored one and her careless cruelty, by telling the young man that he was the victim of germs. The physician agreed to effect, in a month's fine, a cure which he accomplished by placing Virginia Xelva, who had just come to his office as a working girl, in charge of the foolish swain. He played the girl's jealousy against that of the muse, an antidote to open Grace's eyes and inflict a real punishment upon her for she really did care for Bud. After the doctor had explained all love diseases and the treatment for them the nurse administered the treatment to the physician This proved a marked success, for the doctor fell in love with the nurse, who turned out to be an heiress. Due to the faithfulness and efficiency of the coaches, Avancllc Brigner and LaCIcdc Markle, the play was one of the big successes of the year. E. B. t Organizations Cedarville College Y. W. C. A. The Y. W. C. A. is a vital part of the life of the college young woman. She docs not realize the large part that such an organization plays in her life, but that very thing has been one of our aims for this year—to make the girls realize the need and the benefit of such a Christian organization. It has been our purpose also to reach as many as possible of the girls of the student body, and to make them feel that they really want to attend the meetings rather than forcing them to take part. Our membership drive was not as successful as we hoped for but it was closed with the Formal Initiation service of the Y. W. G. A., which we hope was successful in leaving the desired impression on the minds ol the girls. We have attempted to bring out through our programs of the year two pur- poses, —to accustom the girls to lead and take part in discussions among themselves and to bring in new inspiration and information, through talks by various persons directly or indirectly interested in the college. Our financial success has been such as to warrant our carrying on of the usual plans of community work, which, though not extensive have given an added incentive for interest in the organization. One of the aims of the present cabinet is to lend a helping hand in laying plans for more social activities for the student l xly as a whole. Although this has not been fully realized yet we have hope that it may be. As young women we pledge ourselves to the general Y. W. O. A. motto, We unite in the determination to live unreservedly Jesus' law of love in every relationship and so to know God. P. C. Cedarville College Y. M. C. A. Not the least in importance among the activities of Cedarville College is the Y. M. C. A. Its object is to enlist each of the men in its ranks actively and whole hcartedly. It wishes to bring each man into itself in order that it may help each man to bring out the best that is in him. The chapel hour on each Wednesday is given over to the meetings of the Y. M. C. A., and many of the meetings are given to round table discussions of prob- lems, of interest to members, and to the school as a whole. Many interesting and valuable thoughts are brought out, and opportunity is given in these inpromptu dis- cussions to further our study of the art of perfect self expression which is one of the goals toward which we strive in our college career. We feel that every one of us is somewhere on the road to perfect self expression, and that we succeed or fail largely as we do or do not succeed in minting across the best that is in us. It has been said, “Every soul would be beautiful if we could see in it what Cod sees.” And that is one of the high objectives of the Y. M. C. A., to seek for, encourage, and bring out the best of each plastic soul presented, and make of it something beautiful and worthwhile. Tho our attainments have been imperfect, and our efforts sometimes weak, we have endeavored to keep this end in view. The organization of Gospel Teams to conduct meetings or assist in them is one of the worth while activities of the Y., and two such teams have been organized and put into operation with g x l success in the last year. Qu’te a number of interesting and helpful talks have been given by outside speakers, of whom we might mention: Rev. Lytic, of Xenia; Atty. Frank Dean; Mr. Seamens, our State Secretary; Dr. Grubc and Dr. Proudfit. It is the desire of the Y. M C. A., too, to become the men's club in the sense of providing for the social congregation of the men together for social good times as well as spiritual help, and in order that we may learn to mingle together as man to man. Any organization that improves our orientation will help to fit us for the con- tacts of the larger life to come. And lastly, and of paramount importance, the Y. M. C. A seeks to lead men to Jesus Christ as their Divine Lord and Savior, and to the acceptance of active mem- bership in the Church of His foundation. It is, in truth, “another of the builders that are building men for God.” i C. E. S. t Philosophic Literary Society OFFICERS Donald Funk Marston Hunt Winifred Stuckey Elizabeth Lackey Lorena Sharpe Mary Beam This society was originally organized in the fall of '9L At the beginning of the new year meetings were held in the College Chapel. Toward the end of the year the society hall on the third floor of the college was furnished and decorated in the society's colors, Green and White.” Because of ill feeling the faculty look charge of the society during the eight year period begining in 1908 and going up to 1916. The next year we entered the war and a good many of our boys went away to fight for Uncle Sam. The “Philos” suffered the same loss of membership; so it was thought best to join the two under the new name of the “Orange and Blue. As the number of students, after the war, increased steadily year by year it was thought advisable to again start two societies. Accordingly in the spring of '2.' the students were divided into these two societies. It was not until the college started again in the fall, however, that the old society name was adopted. Because many of the old students dropped out during the summer there were not so many old members to work for new members so the society was not very large, but this year with new officers and an early start our society has shown considerable gain in numbers and we sincerely hope in quality. At our meetings held every two weeks, there is an attempt made to develop the literary qualities of each member along the lines of extemporaneous speaking, debate, music, and nlays and if a search is made these qualities are found to be the essential qualities which go to make up a rich life. The chief aim of the old Philosophic society was Be Perpetual Always, and in looking forward to an aim for the new society it was found that no motto could better portray the character which true Philosophic should show than the old motto. G. C. K. Robert Leever Harriet Shields Harold Ray Mae McKay Paul Orr Philadelphian Literary Society In the fall of 1924 the Philo Literary Society began its year's work with an in- creased membership. Our membership campaign had been a success and we added many of the most promising Freshmen to the talent we already possesed. The activi- ties of the society were enthusiastically engaged in and we felt that the quality of our meetings was improving. After the Christmas meeting we rested for a time, but with the new semester we resumed our regular bi-monthly meetings. After this short vacation there was an increased interest in the society, and the members were anxious to keep the programs up to standard and were eager to raise that standard. An outline of the Spring plans was made which embodied the purpose of the society. Our aim is to cultivate the highest ideals, to raise the cultural standards, and to plant in our membership a love for the best in literature which will continue to grow after school days are over. Our members are prominent in the activities of the school both as leaders and as followers, so we feel that if our society can accomplish its aim we can do much toward determining the cultural tone of Cedarvillc College. We want to so develop the talent of our members that, just as in other years, Philadelphians will take leave with sound minds, in sound bodies -people in whom pride may justly be taken. H. S. The College Club T IS OFTEN SAID that some people cat to live, others live to cat hut our College Club certainly shows no manifestations of the former class. You may ask, What is this College Club? Is it a gathering place for songs ami friendly chats, a place to meet our fellow students out of the classroom?” Yes it is this and more; so much more that its popularity would be tremend- ously decreased but for the fact that three times a day, every morning, noon and night a crowd of noisy ravenous people gather in one room below the library, im- patiently await a signal bell, and then bolt for a room with a peculiar aromatic fascina- tion, just opposite the one they occupied. They emerge shortly after as noisy as be- fore but the ravenous look has disappeared- a wonderful contentment lights each countenance. What has happened in that irresistably fascinating room? This room has caused consternation along various lines, some of which it would be well to investigate. The very apparent corpulency that so many of our members bewail, can be traced, 1 fear to this room. Money is the root of all evil, but food is surely the root of all fat. The awe in which some young men are held, not kvausc of their intelligence or ,looks but because of their unlimited capacity, has its birth, in, this room. Even the cause of certain wash days may be traced to this room, but we do not often become so hilarious that a glass of water or morsel of f xvj come unbidden with such dire effects. For all our foolishness and seeming infancy we can be very dignified and proper when occasion demands, or just after a gentle reminder from higher authorities. Such reproofs bare well taken and heeded, for we understand the necessity of being able to conduct ourselves with the dignity of college students, the most severe test to pass, being this very intimate gathering of ours- the club. So all year long we have striven to conduct ourselves as in our own homes, en- joying to the fullest extent our fix d and our friends, and always remember the r x ms in the basement of Ccdarville College Library Our Club. A O. I I ■ Editor’s Notes The publication of a small college annual, though not the enormous task of a University annual hook is nevertheless a hard nut to crack. And, in some eases (as is often said of a small college football team), it offers a great deal of resistance. But. as someone wisely said long ago, There is joy in service, so there is a sense of joy in the work of pub- lishing a college annual. It affords one the excellent op- portunity for a helpful and a profitable experience, and at the same time binds one to his Alma Mater with a link of fellowship and devotion which I believe will never lie There is much to lie said of the Editor's work on such a publication as this. But, I have learned that with- out a willing Staff of efficient workers, the Editor is a failure. So, 1 want to commend the most efficient work of the Business Manager, the tireless efforts of Advertising Managers, and the faithful support of the Assistant Editor, which together with the sanction of the Faculty Advisor, make this lxx k a success. 1 wish also to thank our advertisers, and all others who have in anyway contributed to the compilation of this book. broken. G. LaClKDE Markle, Editor Athletic Review P UNTIL THE YEAR 1921'22 basketball was the only inter-collegiate sport. This was coached during this period by students or graduates of Ccdarvillc College of no wide experience. In this ten years or more, with the exception of the four years the Collins brothers were in school 1916 19, most of the games went to the opponents. From the year 1921 to the pres- ent time the college athletics have been in charge of a physical director. Ulackl urn introduced college football and baseball. Gym classes were started for the boys and girls of the college and men of the community. The next year with Coach Warner in charge, the football and basketball teams showed marked improvement. List year under Director Talcott the girl’s basketball team came to the front by winning a majority of their games. Now we c me to the present year, a banner year in several respects. Coach Diederich is in charge of the College athletics only. The other directors have had the h'gh school athletics in addition. We believe this is a great advance. An athletic council has been appointed consisting of members of the college board; faculty, alumni, and student body. This board is to manage athletics of the college in the future. The success of our teams this year was due not only to the fine work of the members of the squads, but most of all to the determination, knowledge, hard work, and never give up, spirit of our own Pop Diederich. He will be with us again next year and we are looking forward to a much better season. One other thing must be added to the athletic review. A committee was formed to raise money to pay part of the new Director’s salary and make some necessary im- provements for athletics. The committee raised the required money with the help of the faculty, students, alumni, and friends of the college in the community. Their report is as follows: Total amount pledged ............................................... $482.38 Total amount collected ................................................ 450.63 Total pledges not paid to date-------------------------—------------- 31.75 Money paid out For Director’s salary $200.00 Showers in science hall ..... . 63.39 36 steel lockers ___________________________________—------- —.. 122.04 Freight and drayage on lockers------------------------------------ 5.97 Lumber for seats in the gym----- 27.44 Paint and paint brushes--------------------------------------------- 4.35 Total $423.19 Cash on hand to be spent on athletics next year ..........—....... $27.44 We will add to this the pledge money when collected.

MM Football With the arrival of Coach Dicdetich the foothall hopes, of Ccdarvillc College soared high and remained there until disaster, cloaked in the green jersey.� of Wilmington entered. The sea- on started with the prospects of .« winning team, with twelve of last year's squad hack and the promise of a lot of good material in the incoming class. Practice started immediately after the opening of college and the first game was played on the home field with Earlhain College. The Ccdarvillc Eleven held them to a score of 12 12. Close on the heels of this arrived our ncmisis. the -«9 0 tragedy at Wilmington. The squad came out of the fray so badly damaged that hope for a winning season, with so many of the players out was impossible. Again 49 0 appeared opposite the name of Ccdarvillc when the Eleven met defeat at the hands of Defiance The team managed to rc cupcratc to some extent after this battle, and brought home a ray of hope in a 15-lJ score against Findlay. I ulXl mm wmnr..«r m r-• (Qua •w-'jt-’m «ammmm um■—■na s3 « i J In the next game Ccdarvillc overpowered Urbana 65-0, practically all the regular being back in the line-up although not in (he best condition. The game at Capital resulted in a 45-6 loss to Ccdarvillc. several of the men again being injured. The last game of the season was played at Bowling Green, where the Orange and Blue were forced to accept defeat to the tunc of Jy-0. Although the season was not as successful as it might have been remember that Coach Dicdcrich was handicapped by a lack of men and that the team was up against heavier and older men than they tlmiout the entire season. A football team cannot be made in a day. nor in a single season. The squad is to be congratulated on the coinage the men showed and the doggedness with which they fought, although many times they faced almost certain defeat.

Coach Dicderich used Butler’s system of smashing offensive, and after the Yellow Jackets became accustomed to it tlicy proved what a basketball team Cedarvillc College could produce. The first game of the season was played against Urbana, at Urbana. The boys brought home a big victory and a lot of hope to the basketball fans. The only break in the schedule of wins occnrcd when University of Dayton caught the boys on an off night Following this came seven straight wins over Spencerian, Wilbur Wright, Babbs Winchesters. Brill Brothers, ATO of Springfield, and last but by far not the least, a 20-19 victory over the University of Dayton on their own fl x r. Coach Dicderich is to be congratulated on the tine team he produced, and ih s team certainly deserves all that can be Mid in their praise.

Thru the four long years of college, midst the scenes we love so well. As the mistic charms to knowledge we vainly seek to ’«pel; Or we win athletic victTies on the court and gridiron too, Still we work for dear Old Cedar and the Orange and the Blue. When the cares of life o'ertake us, mingling fast our locks with gray. Should our dearest hopes betray us, false fortune fall away, We shall banish care and sadness as our thots return to you, And recall those days of gladness 'ncath the Orange and the Blue.
