Text from Pages 1 - 154 of the 1928 volume:

A .S'OTII Ell year has passed, leaving its many memories, its fail- ures and successes, its joys and dis- appointments. It is the privilege of the 10HS Cedrus Staff, in compiling the record and events of the past year, to place them against a back- ground which will recall them to the fullest extent. For the record- ing of the greater occasions, words and pictures seem entirely inade- quate. The strain of examinations, the excitement of the basketball season, the glory of the campus in spring—the impressions of these can be but poorly set down. It is hoped, however, that by recalling these high moments, the memory of the closing year -will be kept forever fresh to those who have had a part in making this bit of history for our beloved .lima Mater.

He has served the college, the community, and the country far and near during the last thirty-four years. He abides in his work -each year better and greater. In addition to Ids duties as President, he finds time to teach Philosophy, Greek, and Psychology, and to deliver commencement addresses and to preach the Gospel. Dr. Jurkiit has served Ccdnrvillc College and community for thirty-three years in teach- ing and preaching. He is working on in the teaching of Languages and History and in the capacity of Treasurer of the college. The Science Department has been under the efficient direction of Professor Fraser since 1922. This dc|Nirtmcnt is one of the most important in the life of the college. Dr. Talcott lias been with the college from 1924 as Director of Music. Since his resig- nation. .Miss Lydia A. Berkley has been secured to continue with this work. Miss Dolby has been tile guardian of Knglisli since 1923. This department lias grown rapidly in activity and influence under her guidance. She is also Dean of Women. .Miss Licving lias, for the last three years, done her part for the college as Secretary to the President and Registrar and in the teaching of French. This year she has been tlie Acting Dean of the College. II is with gratitude and pleasure that she commends the willing services of Hie various student-assistants and the splendid cooperation of the different mem- bers of the faculty. Professor Horst is yearly becoming more efficient as Director of Physical Education. In addition to bis athletic duties, he lias charge of Mathematics and Spanish Reverend Inginirc is a valuable asset to the college in the teaching of Archaeology. Homiletics, and Religious Kducation. Miss Dean, our summa eum laude Profe sor of Latin and Bible, is an indispensable addition to the faculty. She finds time, during the busy «lays, to give invaluable assistance in the office. Miss .1 alien came to ns this year as Professor of Economies, Sociology, and Public Speaking. Miss .1 ulien has had splendid training along these lines and is giving excellent service to the college. We arc fortunate in having with us this year Professor Hostetler, as Head of the De- partment of Education. This department is under the direct supervision of the State De- partment of Education and is fully equipped for the training of teachers. Miss Chapman is a real “Friend to all. Site skilfully guides the prospective teachers through the maze of teacher-training and brings them to light as very promising teachers. She is also Dean of Women. Miss Bristow well merits the title of “perfect teacher. She is an invaluable member of the Department of Education and is just as loyal to the various other phases of the col- lege work. Miss Lust is one of the most popular members of the faculty and an inspiration to future teachers. She is also a very willing worker in other departments of the college. Mrs. Corry, has. in the past, served as Instructor in Public Music. This year she has been an assistant in the college Department of Music. Miss Burns has instructed in Public School Music during the past year. She is well- fitted for this work and is winning worthy praise in her teaching. —Y. L.

Three courses of instruction prepared by the State Department are offered. These arc designed to prepare teachers for lower elementary, upper ele- mentary, and high school instruction. The outstanding feature is the attempt to present all subject matter from the professional standpoint. This is not a new idea and has proven successful wherever attempted. Much needs to be done to improve and extend this type of instruction for training teachers for better service. Observation and student teaching are necessary to fix desirable professional ideals and habits. This is done in the public schools of Ccdarville. The line spirit of cooperation, and convenient location near the College make an ideal situation for the work. The success of this first year’s work is quite satisfactory to all concerned. However, any new enterprise is apt to grow gradually in size and efficiency, and it is the hope of those immediately concerned, that this venture may grow to larger proportions as the years pass. With the decrease of the county normals, a greater number will be seeking admission at other institutions; and with more rigid require- ments preliminary to entering upon the work of teaching, a longer period in training will be necessary. These conditions will no doubt insure growth for tin's department. Initial steps have already been taken to extend the two-year normal course to a four-year course leading to the degree of Haehelor of Science in Education. Opportunities equal to the best are thus afforded for any who may desire such advantages. A group large enough to make the work interesting is desirable, lint our aim is for efficient work rather than for large numbers; to aid ambitious young people with ability, at small cost; and to set high ideals for those who seek our aid, that they may so •(1101) themselves as to become masters within their spheres of influence.

If we fail to find it in music, we generally have difficulty in discovering the concord in life’s plan. Music is a moral law. It gives tone to the universe, wings to the wind, flight to the imagination, a charm to sadness, gavety and life to everything. We must be directed so that we can find this harmony and such a director is Professor John A. Taleott. He is assisted in Piano by Mrs. Walter B. Corry, and in Saxophone by Kenneth L. Little. Over fifty pupils are enrolled in the courses of Piano. Voice, Pipe Organ. Theory. Counterpoint and Cornet. Five members from the Department of Music furnished attractive numbers for the “Stvle Show” which was held Thursday evening. March 21. 1!)27. in the Alford Gymnasium. Kacli year near the close of the- second semester two recitals arc given. Last year the pupils of the Primary Department held their recital in the south alcove of the Carnegie Library Building on May 28, while the larger Recital Concert was held May 81st, in the Alford Gymnasium, consisting of piano, soprano, contralto and baritone solos. The Baccalaureate music of last year was furnished bv the department, as- sisted by the choir of the United Presbyterian Church and other invited vocalists. 1 i An invitation recital was licit! at the Library studios. April 12th. 1928. The pianists playing were: Miss Wham, Miss Susannah West, and Miss Powers, assisted l� y Miss I litre, contralto. With the closing of the session 1927-’28 Professor Talcott is leaving our col- lege. after five years of service.

W t’uyt Sixty-tiro jflajor Sports FOOTBALL SQUAD Football for ’27 It lias been done. The Ccdarvillc College football Yellow Jackets have won more than one game in a single season, hut the number of games on the victory side this year is advanced only one. Nevertheless two victories sound far better than just one. Also the games that were lost, present a far more impressive story than defeats of previous years. If each team for the next few years will continue the habit of winning one more game than the season before, Ccdarvillc will soon have a very pleasing record. The start of the season did not find the usual pre-season dopsters telling everyone what a great football team C. C. was to have. This has l� een the annual custom for years and everything has always been contrary to that predicted. But this year after Coach Burst got bis lads rounded up and into condition he placed a team on the field that changed several records around the school as far as football is concerned. The team of '27 is the first team that has outscored its opponents in the season's total scoring, since football was renewed at our institution. They defeated Antioch on the Antioch gridiron, the first time this has been accomplished since 1890. The Yellow Jackets also gained a double victory over Antioch for the season. This feat has been the goal of every C. C. team and at last the seemingly impossible is pleasant history. Ccdarvillc was booked to lose the first game with Ashland by forty points. Ashland had a heavy veteran team and it was figured to tear Ccdarvillc to shreads in its first victory of the season. But when the battle was ended Ashland hail ex- perienced strong opposition from the Yellow Jackets and were lucky to win 12 to ( , because Ccdarvillc nearly won out in the final minutes of play. With but two days rest the boys proceeded to administer a 88 to 0 defeat to our “friendly enemies” from Antioch. The Yellow Jackets ripped giant holes in the enemy’s line, skirted their ends with ease, and tossed passes over their heads con- sistently for long gains. Antioch threatened hut once during the entire contest; this was just after the game started. The Yellow Jackets called time-out and it was unanimously decided that they form a stone wall defense. These intentions were carried out perfectly. They were so perfect we doubt if all of Antioch could have crushed the wall. As soon as Cedarville received the hall on downs Adair took the hall and zig-zagged through the entire Antioch team, running eighty yards for a touchdown. I.ate in the last half this same fleet footed Yellow Jacket (no remarks from the Zoologists, please) caused another sensation; the second time though, the jaunt covered a distance of ninety yards. The following Friday brought on the annual scramble with Capital. 'Phis was Ccdarvillc’s one grand chance to wallop “Jerry” Kathcrman and his hand of foot- ball warriors. Our boys had the far better team; they were supposed to win. Two forgotten feminine folks, though, found their way into the contest and perchance they both settled down in the camp of the Columbus lads. “l)ame Fortune” and “Lady Luck” are the ladies mentioned above, in case you have not guessed. Cedar- ville was leading 7 to . The game was nearly over. Cedarville had cleanly and decisively outplayed their opponents all afternoon. A lucky break was Capital’s only chance; and they got it. A diminutive, substitute. Capital end, recovered a Cedarville fumble, lie tucked the ball in his arms and with the speed of three scared antelopes struck out for the goal line; the farther he ran the faster he ran. Capital 12, Cedarville 7. This little unknown” had brought sudden and unexpected hilarity to tin- Capital stands and caused more sudden and unexpected gloom in the Cedarville group. Cedarville made another touchdown on the last play of the game, but after the timekeepers, umpire ami referee got together they decided the game had ended with the preceding play. Just another football game lost by C. C. That’s all. 'I’lu- next week unearthed another game lost by one touchdown. Someone must have clipped the Yellow Jackets wings because they got off to a very poor start. Page Sixlgtr vet Rio Grande scored both her markers the first quarter. Cedarville put one over in the second session. They came close to another several times the last half, hut always fell short those few necessary yards. Rio Grande Id. Cedarville (� . The next week was a repetition, except the scores were advanced six points on each side. Cedarville got olT to a slow start as usual. Blnffton scoring two touch- downs in the initial stanza. The Yellow Jackets then managed to sprout some new wings and made six points before the half ended. They kept up the good work as soon as play resumed and scored again, hut missed their chance to tie the score. Just before the game ended an elongated wingman of the UluiTton crew leaped (we are afraid to say how high) into the air and snatched a pass behind our goal line to give his team the decided edge in points scored. At Kent the unusual hap| cncd. Cedarville got off to a flying start and scored twice before Kent awakened to fact that they were in a football game. Before the half ended though, Kent was wide awake and scored a touchdown. At the start of the second half Cedarville registered again but on all three occasions they failed on their extra points. Kent had been successful on her extra point attempt. A hur- ley lad by the name of Kilbournc then cut loose. The way he plowed through the line was Too Bad.” lie accounted for two more touchdowns single handed and united with his seven previous points it placed his team one point ahead of Cedarville. Thus the game ended. Kent State Normal I!). Cedarville IS. Quakers do not believe in war but anyway the next battle was with Karlham at Richmond, Ind. Once more Cedarville had the lead as the game was in its final stages. This time a long Karlham forward pass tied the score. Cedarville scored two more touchdowns before the game ended but on both occasions the ball was brought back and Cedarville penalized. Both teams won. Both teams lost. Cedar- villc 13, Karlham 13. Cedarville then played host to Antioch in the lone home game of the season. Antioch held up wonderfully the first half. They completely checked the onslaught of the Borstites. They scored first on a perfectly executed play. The roses were not so rosy over Cedarville way. The Yellow Jackets did not score until one minute lx-fore the half ended and copjH'd the lead by making the extra point. When the second half started Happy Rutan decided to exhibit his wares. From then on it was only a matter of time. This lad tore into the Antioch line with the power of a battering ram and the speed of Paddock. The. aerial game was brought into play and the flanks were also skirted with dazzling speed. After much figuring and counting the score was settled: Cedarville 40. Antioch (5. The final game is quite a blemish. The boys had exerted all the football energy they possessed in the hard fought Karlham and Antioch games. Three games in one week is too strenuous for any college team. The cold wind, rain, sleet and rocky gridiron did not coincide with football. Ball’s State Normal School, Muneie, Ind.. is the only team that blanked C. C. all season and while they were doing that they were scoring forty-three points of their own. The Cedrus feels that it is only fitting and proper that they give jH-rsonal men- tion to the three seniors of the squad of ’27 who have so nobly performed on the gridiron under the colors of Cedarville College. Captain William Wee” Nagiev, quarterback, Dave Adair, half-back, and Paul Brown, left tackle, captain '20. We wish that they could continue to plav on at C. C.. but graduation must take its toll. Such is the life of a college athlete; just as he reaches the peak of his career he must advance to the higher levels of life. We trust that they can instill into the teams which they conch next year the spirit and ability they displayed for us. HOYS' KASKKT HAI.I. SQUAD The hoys basketball team of 27 and ’28 of Ccdarville College is termed by all critics as the best team ever turned out at the institution, with due respect to all great teams of the past. This year’s team was by far the outstanding small college team of the state; defeating all the smaller colleges and several of the larger ones. The season's record shows a total of seventeen games won against eight lost. Three of these losses were only logical. One to the University of Cincinnati, Champions of the Buckeye Conference; Ohio Wesleyan, runners up in the same loop, and one to St. Xavier, conquerors of Cincinnati. There was a lot of newspaper propaganda scattered around at the start of the season, to the effect that Ccdarville claimed they had the best team in the state.” Of course when Ccdarville played the two teams that later proved themselves the best in the state ami did not make as credit- able a showing as everyone expected, the general run of things did not go along so smoothly. Soon afterward though, the team hit its stride and mowed down all op- position as fast as it came up; proving that they were at least one of the best teams of the state. The first game brought much joy and optimism concerning future games. Antioch was the first victim of the season for the Yellow Jackets. A victory over Antioch is one thing that brings much rejoicing around the school and, when it is done to the tune of 40 to 15—well, there is just lots and lots of happiness. The starting lineup consisted of five veterans. Nagiev and Adair at forwards, R. Jacobs at center, and Gordon and Little, guards. This team put forth an exceedingly fast offensive attack and the small score of Antioch shows their defensive power. Coach Horst then arranged another team composed of Fisher and Schuller, forwards, Smith, center, Fulton and R. Jacobs, guards. A third team was also inserted into the fray about the middle of the last quarter. Allen and Morton, forwards; Marshall, center, 1 urncr and h. Jacobs, guards. ith this galaxy of material playing in mid season form in its first game, it surely looked as if Cedarville was in for a big year. Next on deck was the fitful night with the Cincy Bearcats.” Cincinnati couldn t have missed a basket if they had tried, and the boys were not allowed to climb up the Giant Holton and stop him, so all in all it was a horrible night for the Yellow Jackets. There were so many score b« oks and so many goals that every one differed, after the game. The official score was finally called 71 to 11). The Battling Bishops” from Ohio Wesleyan came down to the Alford Gym, expecting to do the same thing but during most of the first half it looked as if Cedarville was going to pidl the biggest upset of the season. The Methodists were played to a stand still, but as time wore on they steadily forged ahead and the game ended quite one-sided. Cedarville again made nineteen points and Wcslevan was permitted fifty-four. Wilmington still had the old jinx” on our boys and administered them their third straight defeat. As usual the game resembled a rough football game instead of what it was supposed to be. The Holidays brought on a needed rest and gave tin- bovs a chance to forget their three defeats and start life anew. Santa Claus visited this region Christmas and left a few victories up in the gymnasium. In fact, out of the next fourteen contests the Yellow Jackets emerged victorious on twelve occasions. The first string of victories consisted of four and the other was the longest consecutive winning streak of the season which numbered eight. Pay' Snritty-Giic The first jr.-line after vacation was with Springfield Business College. Coach Burst used several combinations of players. The three previous hard games had given him little chance to get a good line on his new material. The game was fairly even until the latter part, when the five veterans were placed in the game at their usual positions, and scored live field goals in less than three minutes. Defiance presented the next visitors and victims at the Alford Gym. The upstate lads could not keep up the pace set l v the fast tlving Yellow Jackets. Ccdarville led all the while and never was in danger of being placed on the wrong end of the score. The next victory came, after a visit to Urban a Junior College. The second team which was now composed of five Freshmen played nearly the whole game, 'flic varsity saw action only the latter part of the second quarter. The second stringers proved they could easily handle the situation by winning 36 to 1(5. The fourth straight win was the result of another victory over Defiance. The boys defeated Defiance worse at Defiance than they did on their own floor. Our boys made more points, and Defiance less than in the game at the Alford Gvm. Findlay brought an abrupt end to the short winning streak. This was the least expected defeat of the season, but Findlay’s continual trying, and undying spirit netted them a one point victory. The following night the Yellow Jackets jumped back into the win column, but only after a hectic struggle with Bio Grande. The boys from down along the river staged a desperate rally in the closing minutes that was a hard one to cheek. Cedar- villc did not care to lose two games in a row so they gained control of the ball and held it until the game was over. There were no records showing that Ccdarville ever defeated Antioch at An- tioch. or twice in the same season. Now there are records to this effect that are satisfactory to Ccdarville followers. Examination week is not the best time in the world to stage a basketball game; nevertheless the Yellow Jackets came through with flying colors. The H to 37 score in favor of Ccdarville changed a bit of history. The game with St. Xavier was not so satisfactory. There are several good ex- cuses to offer, but the Irish must have a real basketball team if they defeated U. of C. ’ y« Sririilji liro E J co bs 'CuilTi 7“|o'r4o v “ for varj orW Pajrc Strrultf-lhrrr Probably the most thrilling game of the season occurred when Ccdarvillc journeyed to Wilberforce. Cedarville held a very comfortable lead until the middle of the final half. Wilberforce started a drive that did not stop until it brought them a three-point margin, with but a few minutes to play. The Yellow Jackets came back strong and snatched the lead again. A few seconds later Wilberforce was ahead. Just before the final gun cracked, Gordon made a very difficult basket which gave tin victory of the brilliant game to Cedarville. The Yellow Jackets took a southern tour that netted them two more victories. Uio Grande was decisively beaten again and Kentucky Wesleyan was the other vic- tim. The latter game marked the opening of athletic relations between the two schools. The night after the boys got home, they drove to Xenia and showed the Downtown Country Club team of that place how to play basketball. Cedarville made it five in a row by walloping the great team of Bliss Business College. Bliss lost but two games this season and most of their victories were over high class teams. This game also changed a bit of history because it was the first time anv Cedarville team had downed the Bliss lads. The old grads and former students were treated to some real basketball in the Ilome-Coming game with Ashland. Ashland presented a classy combination, but the Yellow Jackets are a hard aggregation to beat on Home-Coming night. The game was a nip ami tuck affair but Cedarville emerged with a .37 to .32 victory. Cedarville made it seven straight when Urbana came down for another dose from the Yellow Jacket stinger. Cedarville had much difficulty in getting started but after they did, they ran up their highest score of the year. Our boys got sweet revenge when they played the return game with Findlay. The upstate lads had planned on defeating Cedarville twice but their plans did not look so good when the game was over and the Yellow Jackets had won their eighth consecutive game by defeating them .3!) to .30. Wilberforce paid us a visit, stopped the winning streak, and secured their sought for revenge. The colored lads just couldn't be stopped, and that was all there was to it. The northern trip produced a victory and a defeat. Ashland didn’t let the boys down them again, but Kent couldn't help themselves. The latter game though, was won only by a one point margin, after an uphill battle. The “Green Tornado from Wilmington brought the “Jinx” along with it to the Alford Gym. “Shifty” Bolen’s boys received an inspiration somewhere, and I'ngr Srrrnit -four Onn. C.

In our meetings we aim to help young men to find God's plan for their lives and to ally themselves with that plan. Wc have indeed been fortu- nate in securing speakers from various walks of life. These men have brought us helpful and inspiring messages out of their own personal experience in life. The Y. M. has eooperated with the Y. V. in bringing speakers and musicians of note to our college campus. It was a great privilege to have Dr. Biederwolf and Mr. Grimes with us in one of our joint meetings, and in another meeting to have the Wilberforce «piartctte entertain us. STORMONT McNEKI. Young Men’s Christian Association n I i j I’ngr Eighty-tix Two ot our members attended the Lake Geneva Y. M. C. A. Conference which was held last June. This was made possible through the kindness of Mr. V. V. Galloway, the churches of Cedarville, and other friends of the organization. These delegates have tried to put into practice some of the good things they learned at the conference, in order that tin- will of Christ may he made more effective in our daily campus life. The social activities have not been neglected in our program. We have had many good times together which have deepened the spirit of friendship. We shall long remember the Hallowe’en Party and other social affairs of the year in which the Christian organizations have taken a leading part. One of the worthwhile accomplishments of our association this rear was the College Minstrel which was presented March 28th, under the able direction of Mr. A. (i. DufTev of South Charleston. We desire to thank our many friends who have helped in any way to make tin year a success in our Y. M. work. ' ' [). K.

President Lois Estle ---------------------------------- Vice-President Ada McKay Secretary-Treasurer Helen Iliffe________________________________ Program Chairman Frances McChcsnoy Insistant Program Chairman At the beginning of the College year of 1927 ami 1928, we were slightly handicapped by the resignation of some of the officers who generally arrange for the opening session and organize for the ensuing year. Even though we were a little slow in organizing we were preparing for a great drive in the meantime. We endeavored to enlist in our ranks all worthy members willing to conform to and help in making this society better than ever before. In this number as well as in our old members we were fortunate indeed to have secured so many talented students who excel in music, literary, and dramatic art. For this we are very proud hut hope ami trust that they will ever make it their duty to help others to he able members of society. Page Eight ‘ eight We hold our regular inertings bi-monthly and programs art- logically arranged so that they may he appropriate for each meeting. They follow a course that is varied in content and form. This we do to develop the talent in the individuals and at the same time lie very instructive and entertaining to all concerned. It is evident that this has embodied the eager efforts of everyone: that our profound purpose he to strive for quality in everything attempted. It has been our aim to cultivate the highest ideals, to elevate the cultural standard and to instill in our members a desire for the best in musical and dramatic art. This we hope will ever remain not only a pleasant memory but a liking and craving for the best of everything. All our members are prominent in the activities of the college, designating that a wonderful atmosphere prevails and a high standard maintained. From this we are confident that the cultural tone of all is moved toward noble ends. Thus the Philadelphians are not only builders but messengers; am' Voyt Eightf nint FKA7.IKK Philosophic Literary Society President Vice-President Secret artf Treasurer Clarahcl Hunt Alberta Hemphill In 1895 the originators of the Philosophic Literary Society adopted the motto. Be Perpetual Always.” From that date until the present time, the members of this .society have endeavored to maintain the standard their motto implies, and in a large measure they have been successful. Although small in number, they have been patient and earnest in their efforts. One of their chief characteristics has been a willingness to work. In tin- spring of 1927, after a year noted for regular and interesting meetings, attended by a very enthusiastic and faithful group of students, the members of the society came to realize that a number of them were to graduate that year, and that not more than ten or twelve of the “old faithful would return in tin fall. With consternation they came to realize that their motto must be applied without, as well as within, the society. As a result, an extensive membership campaign was started. A membership committee was appointed whose duty was to learn the names of prospective students and to welcome them to Ccdarvillc College and to invite them to attend the Philosophic Literary Society. The committee was very faithful in ) crforming its duties, and at the first meeting in the fall of 1927, quite a few new students were present. Vttje Sinctij The campaign ended with a contest between the “Greens” and “Whites , and at the social given at the expense of the Greens”, it was found that the member- ship had grown from ten to forty-eight. Our meetings this year have been interesting anti of value both to intellectual and social culture. The programs have consisted of the study of the people of various parts of our country with their literature, customs, ami occupations; mu- sical programs; debates; essays; readings; and extemporaneous speaking. As for social activities, it is not likely that any of us shall soon forget the feed” at the gym, the Christmas caroling and the social hour at McDonalds, or the hard-luck party at the home of Helen Powers. Our mottor, “He Perpetual Always”, is leading us on. Our latest activity is an effort to instill as much enthusiasm among the students of Cedarville College for intellectual achievement as for athletic achievement. We do not advocate less enthusiasm for athletics, but we do advocate more enthusiasm for achievement in the culture of those talents with which we are endowed. For any success that may be ours, we owe it to the Creator who has endowed us with the opportunities, privileges, and faculties which are ours; to the spirit of cooperation which has pervaded the society; and to Miss Lust, who has been of invaluable service in rendering new and helpful advice, kindly criticisms and wise- ad vice. —C.

I.ast year the Club group chose John Johnson as steward, who has efficiently and patiently served in this office. Only those who have pursued the duties of a steward know the worries and troubles connected with the work. We again have iiad the kind services of Mrs. Morton as matron, assisting in her own capable way. Many a frown has been chased away by the elieerv smile and witty words of Jen- nie Hamilton, the cook.

It is our earnest hope that as the years go by. the Alumni Section may grow, and that those who have graduated will await each Cedrus as expectantly as docs the active student body. We wish to extend our thanks to those Alumni who found time to send the following information: CORNELIUS BRUCE COLLINS.........................................lloltville, California Principal of High School. Entered first class and at all times was a member thereof until forced out bv illness in May, 1897. Was not granted a diploma until 1898. Began teaching in western Nebraska in December, 1897. attended Colorado State Normal School one year, graduating with degree Bachelor of Pedagogy in 1900. Taught a country school in Colorado one year and received the degree of Master of Arts from C. C. in 1901. From 1901 to 1904- was teacher of English in the Philippine Islands. Took a post-graduate course in pedagogy at Greeley, Colorado, receiving the degree Master of Pedagogy in 1905. The following three years were spent as principal or superintendent in high schools in Colorado, removing to California in 1908 where for two years he was prin- cipal of a grammar school. For the past eighteen years he has been principal of high schools in Southern California, having been principal of the lloltville Union High School since 1925. Three men, all wonderful teachers, have profoundly inllucnccd his life and made him choose teaching as a profession. Prof. .1. G. Graham, principal of Xenia High School, was the first. Doctor W. R. McChcsney was the second and President Z. X. Snyder of Greeley was the third. Three men with higher ideals have never been found and they each have been and still are an inspira- tion. 1927, just 80 years since leaving the halls of Cedarville College, has been eventful in that we have celebrated our silver wedding anniversary, the sub jeet of this sketch having married Miss Edith Mc.Mullin, a graduate of Greeley, in 1902, and both children married last fall.

To every Cedarvillc College student there is an irresistible thrill connected with Cedar Day. for it is Cedarvillc College's own day the day on which former students and friends of the college gather to witness and to enjoy. On this particular morning one might see on the campus to the north of the main College Hall an unusual amount of activity. A stage decorated with green and white adorned the right side of the space, and on the left a small bower also of green and white awaited the May Queen. The cedar trees formed a green back- ground for tin's setting. But hush! The program of the day, which has been divided into three parts, has begun. page One Hundred and Tieo There comes to our cars the sound of music; and it fades away in the dis- tance the Cedar Day oration, an annual evmt on this day of days, is delivered In- Mr. Day Kennedy. oral numbers including.

This honor has Iwrn bestowed on Miss Mae MeKav who makes a most beautiful and stately Queen, as she enters, preceded by tiny flower girls and a small crown bearer. Her ladies in waiting follow her as she slowly makes her way to her throne where she is crowned by the former queen. Miss Lena Hastings. An aeroplane under the guid- ance of Mr. Talcott, drops greetings to tilt: queen. The final part of the program is the story which is enacted for the entertain- ment of the queen. ”1� is morning in early spring near the coast of Brittany where there is a se- cludet! spot, green with the vegetation of spring. To this spot comes a band of pirates bearing a huge chest. They make merry in preparation for opening the chest and dividing the booty. Startled at the sound of music in the distance, they beat a hasty retreat, neglecting to take the chest with them. A gay group of vil- lagers eners, pulling with them (Jriselle and Krie whose betrothal they are celebrat- ing. The peasants insist that the young people dance for them.

She carried a shower bouquet of apple blossoms and lilies of the valley. Covers were laid at the bride’s table for the bridal party. A delicious two course sup- per was served.

Would you tell your wife or wouldn’t you? Mr. Temple decided to tell tin- truth, but the manner in which he was greeted by Mrs. Temple, upon his return home, changed his plans and he was in rather a precarious position a great manlier of times. It took three acts to “set him right” with Mrs. Temple again, and during these acts many comical situations arose. The play was greatly appreciated by the audience, so much in fact that a curtain call was made by the entire cast at the close of the performance. This reviewer was well pleased with the acting of the various mcmliers of the cast. Space would not permit the mentioning of all who should receive favorable comment, but we do wish to say that Helen Illffe as the suspicious and jealous wife of Mr. Temple played her role to perfection. Janies McMillan, as Mr. Temple carried his part extremely well. David Adair, as Frank Fuller, also gave a splendid interpretation of his lines.

'Hiat was enough for Mr. Wheeler, any man who could drive an army mule and not swear should liave a job,” so Clarence was hired. His duties on the Wheeler estate were varied indeed. He could do anything from tuning the piano to painting the house. In fact the Wheeler's didn’t see how they ever had managed to exist without him. Such was the theme of Clarence. Of course we found out later that Clarence was a famous Arthrojwidist and that he cared a great deal for Cora’s instructor. Miss Pinny. And so ns the final curtain came down we found Clarence leaving the Wheeler household’to take up his duties as Professor in a large University. Clarence as it was presented hy the Junior Class was a lively ami very interesting play. A large and appreciative audience viewed the production and all voted unanimously as to its worth. The cast was well chosen and all gave a splendid (mrtrayal of their parts. Robert Jacobs as Clarence was indeed clever as the versatile young soldier. Mr. Jacobs interpretation of the learned soldier was excellent ami Ids ability as a saxophone player can hardly he ques- tioned. James Hearn as Hohhv, the spoiled and somewhat worldly son was a problem to all. It fell to Mr. Hearn's part to create the laughter, and he let few opportunities go hy. Miss Margaret Chandler aptly portrayed the part of Cora Wheeler. This was Miss Chandler's first appearance in a college play and the way in which she enacted her part places her as one of the leading actresses of the College. Space does not permit tlic mention of all the characters although praise is due to the entire cast. The play was directed hy Miss Julian, this being her first since she came to Cedarville College. The aide manner in which she conducted it shows that she will Ik much in demand ns a director of future Collegr Dramas. Page Our Hundred and .Vine Valentine Party The V. W. C. A. and Y. M. C.

Karly in the evening, the gym seemed rather large for such a gathering, hut we soon tilled it with our merriment. The old-fashioned games, “Skip, Skip, Come-a-Loo” and Pig in the Parlor,” seemed in vogue. A lovely white box hearing a rosy red heart held a valentine for each one. It was with fear and trembling that some of them were opener!, hut we were re- minded of the saying that the “gruffest exterior holds the kindest heart”—sweetest message in this case. K very one departed for home feeling that he had thoroughly enjoyed the evening and that the students at College were quite a peppy bunch. President’s Reception Mrs. MeChcsney and I wish to invite all the students of the College to our home next Thursday evening.” That was the announcement made by our President one March morning. On this particular Thursday evening more than two hundred students and friends gathered at our President’s home on Xenia Avenue. Because of the. nearness of St. Patrick's Day. a green and white color scheme was used. A delicious two course supper was served. During the evening a very pleasing musical program was presented, consisting of vocal solos, piano duets, violin and cello duets, and a selection. “Bells of St. Mary's” by the Girls' Glee Club. The students always enjoy an evening spent at the home of our President and his wife, and this evening was no exception. VifW One Hundrrd owl Trn M Before a capacity house on the evening of Marcii 2S, the V. M. ('. A. of the College presented a very successful Minstrel. The opening curtain rose with the ensemble's singing ‘'.Moonlight and Hoses. Jokes and songs followed in rapid succession. Tlie end men were always on the move, and by their jokes, kept the audience laughing continuously. Knd men were: James Beam, Robert Collins, Dewitt Hutan, Frank Gruhani, Robert Thompson and Robert Cripps. a The songs were all modern hits of the day. The three outstanding solos were: “Among My Souvenirs, I� Chester Violet; “The Hours I Spent With Von, by Maurice Roseherrv; and “My Blue Heaven,” by Nelson ('rcswcll. These all deserved the applause accorded them by the audience. S|K-cial mention sliculd he given to the Circle. While all diii not have a chance to sparkle by singing solos, their singing in the Chorus was splendid indeed, and without them tin- Min- si rel would not have been the success that it was. In the second part, which was composed of numerous comedy acts and special tv numbers, the outstanding event was the Comedy Sketch given by Day Kennedy and 1 larrv’ Bickering. If these two ever decide to change their careers, wc would suggest the stage. ’ A saxophone solo by Kenneth Little; a sketch, Zacks Spunks Up Courage,” bv Robert Duffey; and the duet, By tin- Waters of Minnetonka. sung by Miss Ruth Burns and Mr. A. G.’Duffey, were excellent. Then as a fitting climax. Day Kennedy gave Hie reading, “Sockery’s Cat. Mr. Kennedy is quite a versatile young man. and the success of this year’s Minstrel is due largely to his untiring efforts. Mr. A. G. Duffey was the director ami also acted as interlocutor. The men who sponsored the Minstrel, and those who worked so hard to make it a suc- cess are to he congratulated. This Minstrel was enjoyed by all who heard it, and the partici- pants have left a record of which they can he well proud. Page Our Hundred and Me ecu Y. W. Formal Banquet One of the most interesting soeial functions of the year for the college girls was the Formal Banquet, given April second, at the Alford Memorial. 1 liree large tallies, seating seventv-tive guests were arranged in the form of a triangle. The tables were very attractive with white linen clothes, blue crepe paper runners and crystal candlesticks with blue candles, representing the V. V. C. A. colors. A very delicious four-course dinner was served. The girls were very proud of the dinner, since they had prepared everything. A very interesting program followed the dinner. Miss Dolby, Faculty member of the Cabinet, introduced Miss Mary Webster, who as toastmistress very cleverly introduced Dr. Aulccno Jamison. I)r. Jamison is Dean of Women at Muskingum College. Her address was most interesting and personal, and her manner most charming. The girls enjoyed every minute that she spoke. Miss Sarah Brown, a student at Muskingum gave several violin and vocal selections. The Cabinet appreciated the interest the college girls displayed in this affair— a Formal Banquet being a novel project for the Y. W. We too wish to thank those Mothers” who so generously assisted us. Church Receptions During last fall, the College students were entertained by each of the three churches of Ccdarvillc. The church members are always very thoughtful of the students, but especially arc they thoughtful in those first few weeks when home- sickness is most prevalent. The Presbyterians entertained at the Gym the second week in September. The guests were divided into groups, and part «if the evening was spent with con- tests among the groups. Delicious refreshments were served. We «leparted, assured that the Presbyterians know how to entertain. The Methodists held the next reception a week later, in their church. The en- tertainment was in the form of a radio party! The ililTerent groups represented various stations, anil broadcast interesting programs. We also enjoyed music by the orchestra during the evening. The United Presbyterians entertained during the first week in October. The guests enjoyed a very clever program which was staged by the young people of the Church. Later, games were played. The serving of refreshments concluded an- other pleasant evening f«ir the College students. I'lir r One Hundred and Ttcelre fi— 12— SEPTEMBER Presides blow in. That terrible exam! Opening day.

McClelland it. j. McClelland 31 South Detroit St. XENIA, OHIO A HKD-TIME STORY FOR FRESHMEN Once upon a time, we heard a story (and on very good authority) about a little boy and a little girl who liked each other very much. Now it happened that the little girl was a preacher’s daughter, and on a certain night, when the little boy had a date with the little girl, she had to go to church (as all good preacher’s daughters do) so the little boy went around to the church in a neighboring town not far from Cedarville and had to content himself waiting in the lobby until the pride of his heart had finished her duties at the piano. Now the hero of our story had arrived on the scene of action just as the preacher was in the midst of his discourse, and as he was rather tired, he dreamed lazily away until the preacher had finished. However, as he heard the first notes of the closing song being played, he spruced up and thought that e’er long he could feast his eyes on his lady fair. Hut the little boy was very much dismayed when he heard the congregation burst forth into a negro spiritual, and he realized he had made a mistake in the church. Which all goes to show, little Freshmen, that denominations do make a difference!
