We need guidance of a good, moral, Christian nature. These guiding influences take many forms not recognizable at times. We are thankful for these guiding principles, one of which is our dear school which boosts us upward. We shall try to portray for your approval some of the life existing around us which creates our very dear memories and guides us toward our goal.

Likening our school to a large family our faculty may he compared to parents, teaching, guiding, and keeping a kind and faithful arm around us. We wish to take this place to say what is in our hearts about our beloved faculty and to thank them for all they have made us. Dr. McChesncy, president of our college, has been the untiring father of Cedar- ville College since 1S‘ 4. He has created in the hearts of hundreds of Cedarville Col- lege students the ideals of a loving kindness, wisdom, and a creative nature. Dr. Jurkat, the treasurer of our little family, has been another one of our goals toward which to aim. As professor of history and German we have learned to love and reverence his ability and knowledge. Dean Steele has been our adviser for two of the five years he has been with us. Kvery year has brought to us a warmer place in our hearts for him. An understanding nature and a smile for everyone. Professor of Bible and Sociology. Dean Angcvine. professor of English and Latin, has been our mother for two years and has guided us over many rough spots. We wish to extend to her all of the good wishes of the Student body. Professor Hostetler, a man of extensive and unlimited ability. A director in the Educational Department and a man whose influence is state wide. Professor Kuehrmann has built up the Science Department greatly. He is head of the Department of Science and a capable, likeable man. Professor Davis, head of the Department of Mathematics, has added much to not only this department but to the welfare and work of the entire College. Miss Berkley, head of the Department of Music, is to be greatly commended for her untiring efforts and her progress with this department. Her perseverance and ability has made our music department a leader among many of the larger colleges. Mrs. Corn, assistant in the Department of Music, is also an able and energetic music instructor as well as being an active member of those who influence the commun- ity musically. Coach Borst, Spanish instructor and Coach of our College, should be very highly commended upon his achievements in sports in the past years. He has done much to further the progress of Cedarville College and also to elevate the standards of Ath- letics in Cedarville College. He has spread Cedarville College’s name through many of the large schools of Ohio and he has given us a high type of sportsmanship for an aim. Miss Wolfe, who is a new member of our happy family, has gained the respect Twenty-one and love of the student body in the short time she has been with us. She is quiet and reserved, hut let us not forget, “still water runs deep.” And now let us look at our faculty as a whole. We ask you confidentially: have you ever seen any other faculty which have the quality and class that ours has. May God always provide for Ccdarvillc College, the quality of faculty members which have been provided in the past five years. We express our gratitude to you faculty. We love you. every one of you and we wish you luck. Ttct ty-lwo ALFRED TOWNSLEY C E DRUS A. B. in Education Ccdarvillc, Ohio Cedarvillc High School '■ • gave to misery all he had, a tear.

In the fall of 1028 we embarked upon our voyage. We were properly initiated by the upper-classmen, and thanks to them some of our boys received free haircuts. We had two delightful feeds with the remainder of the student body joining to make it a grand success. Most of these freshmen returned in 1920 and had a very prosperous year. We try to neglect no field of endeavor. We have maintained our standing in the line of athletics. Some of the flashiest members of the squad were found from our ranks. The girls went out for basketball and glee club gained a name for themselves in both places. In classrooms, sports, literary activities, spreads, and various organiza- tions you will find the necessary quota of Juniors. Every college needs a cheerleader and one of our rank naturally stepped into that position. Then we also shine in the classroom. In scholastic standing the Juniors hold their own. This year we laid the foundation for a great class, and true to all plans, our class has made its appearance in every activity of the college. On the eighth of April we presented the play “Old Lady 31.” Now we arc planning to entertain the Seniors in a royal manner. We have just one more year in which to gain greater fame. If our crew all pulls together there is no limit to the heights we can attain. R. I). Thirty-fix C E I) R U S ! SARAH MARGARET CHANCE She’s just a real pal and one who can he de- pended upon.

C. ith this idea in mind we do fight our heads off to win. And we do it in the attitude which is found predominant throughout the whole college. The attitude of fairness. The question is, who creates this attitude and spirit in athletics? The answer is. our coach.

Football Review THE Ccdarvillc College football team experienced a successful season, although winning only one game and tying another. The team was scrappy at times and at other times played listless football but most of the time the boys made touch- downs difficult if not hard for the opposing team to get. They were out there doing their best which is all that can be asked of anybody. Considering the schools we met. their si e and their superior numbers, and Lady Luck, Ccdarvillc experienced a suc- cessful season. Our team played practically the same class of schools as last year. Two Ohio Conference teams, Cincinnati University and Otterbein, Wilmington, Urbana Junior College, Rio Grande and Morehcad State at forehead, Kentucky, were played. The scores on the average were smaller than those of last year indicating a somewhat better team. This was to he expected as we lost only two members from last year’s squad. The opening game with Cincinnati was quite different from last year. Our boys were playing their first game of the season, practically their first hard scrimmage. So we lost 46 to 0. Quite different from the score of 19 to 0 of last year. Fifttinrertt At Ottcrbein. Cedarville actually met the proverbial “steam roller.” The entire line averaged well over 200 pounds, the tackles weighing 245 and 250. Even so. our boys held them to one touchdown in the first half. The final score was 25 to 0. Our first home game was with Urbana Junior College. Urbana scored first and it looked for awhile like Cedarville would not score at all. but in the last half a punt was blocked and the fellows converted it into a touchdown in a few plays. The goal was missed and we had to be content with a tie score 6 to 6. 1 he return game at Urbana ended 12 to 0 in their favor. Wilmington defeated us twice, the first time 20 to 0 and the second 12 to 7. The high spot of the season was the victory over Rio Grande, there. 1 he last time Cedarville played football there the score was—painful to recall. Hut we got par- tial revenge by defeating them 34 to 0. If the team had been feeling as good and working so well together in some of the other games as they did in this one more would have been won. The season closed with a game at Morehead, Kentucky. After the long trip the boys could not seem to pull together and play ball so we lost 7 to 0. When schools we played found out we had an enrollment of only 75 or SO they shrugged their shoulders as if to say, “Here is another easy victory.” He fore the smoke of the battle cleared away they usually changed their opinion of our school and our boys. We may be small in numbers but when it comes to fighting there arc very few who can beat us. J- C. S.

With the return of nearly all of last year’s squad and the addition of new- material C. C. expected to experience the best season in the history of the College. Playing some of the foremost teams near our size in our state we did very well to win five victories. We lost a game to the University of Dayton and the Homecoming game to Antioch by one point and two points respectively. Several other games would have been won if everyone had been at his best. Hut no ball club can be “hot” all the time. The season opened with the first seven games being lost. Then it seemed as if we might be going good as we won the next two games from Urbana and the return game with the University of Dayton. However the next two games were dropped by decisive scores. We won from Wilberforce here in a fast and furious game. 31 30. and from Antioch, there. 31-26. Only one game was won the rest of the season and that from Urbana, there. The crowds attending the games were small and consequently very little money Sixty CEDRUS was made this year. The students and people of the community must take more interest in basketball if it is to be a financial success. Cedarvillc College has a team nearly every year which any school of three or four hundred students would be proud to sup- port and it is tip to the students to sec that the team is backed to the limit. 'flic prospects for next year are not very bright as we lost Wendall and Walter Boyer, Alfred Townsley, Albert 1 urncr and Robert Collins by graduation. But we have excellent Sophomore and Junior material to step in and take their places. We must take this opportunity to thank Coach Horst and the squad for their faithful and successful upholding of Cedarvillc College’s honor and name on the hard- wood courts of Ohio and the neighboring states. These men have always been clean and fair players upholding Cedarvillc College’s name and traditions wherever they played ball. We wish the squad and Coach Borst the very best luck in their next year’s basket- ball season and may they spread the name and fame of Cedarvillc wherever Collegiate basketball is played. J. C. S.

At the end of the season there were seven scores in the winning column for the Cedarville team and this far surpasses any base- ball record made in recent years. We more than broke even with our three neighboring rivals. Antioch. Wilming- ton and Wilbcrforce. and even held our own with the larger schools such as Dayton University. We lost a heartbreakcr to Dayton to the tunc of 5-2. Our boys outhit Dayton and outpitched Dayton, but one costly error and the breaks enabled Dayton to nose us out. Perhaps we would have had a couple more games in the winning column if the umpires had seen things as they really were, but you just ask Rife and Boyer about that, they know the inside dope. 1'he hardest blow our team received was the loss of our new pitcher Garlow for the first month because of a rather serious automobile accident. But before the season was over Preston made a great comeback and pitched some fine ball. One of the high sjh is of the season was the defeat of the Ohio State Reserves. Sixty-five C E I) RUS They returned to Columbus a tar less “cocky bunch than arrived here for the game and realizing that at least occasionally they play some real baseball at Ccdarville. One of the closest and most exciting games was with the heavy hitting Wilber- force team. Our boys went down to Wilberforcc and not only held them even as far as fielding and pitching are concerned, for we pride ourselves on our defensive work, but we also outhit this powerful crew and brought home the winning baseball. Our closest rival. Antioch, fell before our team and last but not least, Wilmington was actually defeated by Ccdarville, and it was done fairly and squarely, too, although Wilmington tried to make some new rules in the last couple of innings, but the um- pires were wise to their tactics and it availed them nothing. Perhaps this will break the long spell that Wilmington has held seemingly over all athletic teams representing Ccdarville. 'I'he only Senior we lose by graduation is Paul Tanner our right-fielder, so at present with at least eight veterans remaining it looks as though Ccdarville College should have a banner year in baseball for 1931, and I think everyone will join me in saying that we are truly proud of the 1930 record and now look forward with great hopes and aspirations for the coming year. II. T. Good-bye “Pops” THERE arc seven members of the Athletic teams who graduate from the halls of old C. C. this year and we wish to take this time and space for these seven Seniors to say good-bye. Four long years ago we started together, playing, fighting, endeavoring to put Ccdarville College Athletics on the map. We have learned to love our Coach and each other. It is hard to shake the hand of Coach Horst and say good-bye without shedding a tear. Hut of course we must; as our ways arc doomed to part. We shall carry fond and aching memories from our Athletic experience, memories which we shall probably brood over for a very long time. Hut let us hope that some day in the future we can have a sort of get-together and do a little. Do you remember the time when----? etc., etc. We say good-bye to you “Pops and we say good luck. We wish we could be with you another year. i C EDRUS Organizations Co-operation in organization we learn, is ideal.

Sixty-wino in CEDRUS Cedrus Staff LATE nights, arguments, cramped lingers, hard work, worry, sacrifice, co-operation and much planning have all had their place in the publishing of this book. We hope that it comes somewhere near the high standard which has been set for it in the past. If pleasure or enjoyment is by any chance received from it. we wish you would kindly mention it to any member of the staff, who has been so kind and careful in working toward the completion of the book. At this time we wish to thank very kindly, all those who have in any way helped in the making and publishing of this book. We wish to especially mention and thank Miss Helen Baker and Miss Irene Tobias for their labors and to point out our selection to the post of honor which bears the insignia “a bear for work.” Mr. Marion Hostetler. I might add, if you want to wish upon some one of your enemies something real bad. wish upon them the editorship of the Cedrus. Seventy We wish to again thank all those who have had anything at all to do with the making of the Cedrus. And we wish you a ven pleasant summer.

A. owing to the decreased num- ber of girls in the college and the general financial depression. However, we have had much to be thankful for. Our small number has enabled us to drop formality and to have round table discussions at our weekly meetings. Some subjects discussed were: Marriage ruins career; Good Sportsmanship; Hoy and Girl Rela- tions et al., and we derived much benefit and pleasure from these meetings. Some projects presented this year were: Art Appreciation, Music Appreciation, Beauty Culture, Physical Culture, etc. As money-making scheme we sold hot dogs on business days, and in November we successfully held a Waffle Breakfast inviting the public. This last was an entirely new scheme but it proved to be so successful that Dr. Mac requested that it become an annual event. We were able to send thirty dollars to the National Hoard.

M. C. A. Notes rp HE Y. M. C. A. is one of the major organizations of Cedarvillc College. It has |l for its duty aiul ami the building of strong spiritual characters in the young men of the College. For this reason it holds its importance with scholastic and ath- letic organizations. The efforts of the program chairman have been to promote a keen interest in the meetings by calling in men of the professional walks of life along with well-known ministers of the surrounding communities. We have had several student-led discussion meetings this year. All these meetings we feel have been intensely interesting, and the members have attended very faithfully. 1 he Y. M. C. A. and the 'l . W. C. A. have always enjoyed perfect co-operation. This year has been no exception to the rule. Our several joint meetings have been very successful due no doubt to the availability of more talent. '1 he Y. M. C. A., with the Y. Y. C. A. and the social committees of the student hotly has done much to keep up the interest of the students b the direction of social functions. It is our since rest wish that this organization for the furthering of Christ’s King- dom may continue to enjoy its prosperity in Cedarvillc College. May it continue to build Cedarville’s men into chirstian leaders who will always honor their Alma Mater and its Y. M. C. A. organization. J. R. C. Sevmttt-fvr I C EDRUS Philosophic Literary Society Marion Hostetler _ Wilma Curry____ Doris Hartman__ Eloisc McLaughlin ______President Vice President ______Secretary _____Treasurer Seventy-fix CEDRUS Philosophic Literary Society THE Philosophic Literary Society has no rival in the college, but even though it lacks the stimulus of competition it has enjoyed an active and successful year. Since membership is entirely voluntary, only those with mutual social or literary interest attend the meetings, so that a fine spirit of co-operation results. The officers elected at the first meeting of the year were: President, Marion Hos- ttler; Vice President, Wilma Curry; Secretary. Doris Hartman; and Treasurer, Eloisc McLaughlin. Three freshmen contributed their efforts during the year toward making the society a success: Chaplain Clyde Hutchison, who led the devotions; Scr- geant-at-Arms Joe Finney, who arranged the meeting place and helped serve refresh- ments; and the Reporter, Walter Kilpatrick, whose items in the “College News” column of the local press were timely and well worded. All officers were re-elected for the second semester. The programs consisted of talks, readings, debates, and short stories, as well as vocal and instrumental solos, duets, and ensembles. Some topic is carried through- out each program, and special features are frequently arranged. After Hallowe’en an impromptu mock trial was held, in which Carmen Frazier was charged with the theft of a traffic sign from a nearby village, but she was acquitted when she pled insanity. At the Thanksgiving meeting appropriate refreshments were served, and the Christmas program was presented at the Christmas party of the student body. An outdoor meeting at the Cliffs was quite successful. Although the members undoubtedly gain practical experience in public speaking which will be of value to them in later life, the chief aim of the society is to have a good time in the living present and those who know agree that the aim was realized. M. H. Sr rrnty-tcKrn C E I) RUS Music Department ALTHOUGH our Girls’ Glee Club is smaller in number of members flu's year, we have been doing more advanced work. So far, we have filled no outside en- gagements, but our work here at home has been highly complimented. The mid-semester concert, with its variety of chorus numbers, solos, trios, quartets, and readings, was received with great appreciation by a large audience of music lovers. The Department of Music, taken as a whole, has been larger this year than for some time. Several instrumental recitals have been given under Miss Berkeley's direction. An added feature of interest in music has been the Reveler’s Quartet, conqtosed of George Gordon, Ed Irons, B. Turner and P. Garlough. This quartet has proven very popular and has given many outside performances. Also, this quartet, together with the girls’ quartet, which is composed of Misses Waddle, Skinncll, Hartman and Stevenson, has accompanied Dr. Mac on several trips to various high schools where performances were given as advertisements for our college. L. L. S. C E I) R U S ONL of our favorite spots about college is tlu club located in the basement of the library, kvcrv day the sound of the bell draws a hungry crowd around the dining room tables. It is here we learn to know each other well, for under the influence of plenty of good food we lower the bars of reserve and allow our true dis- position to show forth. Of course there is lots of teasing and joking going on while we eat, but experience has taught us to enter into the fun and contribute some ourselves. We will all remember the place where we ate, drank and were merry.

Kiuhty-four Cedar Dav 1930 j NINKTEEN-THIRTY Cedar Day Exercises will never In- forgotten by those present on that beautiful, sunshiny morning of June fourth. Accompanied by beautiful and sweet strains of music the procession began. The beautiful queen. Lucilc Tanner, knelt before a white, flower-bedecked throne, surrounded by her many attendants to be crowned by Miss Margaret Chandler. Possibly one of the most outstanding memories of the day was the May Pole Dance. It was well done and worthy of high praise. Praise was also due Herbert Main, the orator of the day. All those present were permeated with his dauntless hope, vision, loyalty, enthusiasm, and undying love for dear old C. C. The theme of the remainder of the exercises was Spring. Villagers were on the green, dancing to invoke the arrival of Spring. When Spring did not come they went away to the woods in search of it. They found many signs of Spring, the violet dance, the butterfly dance, the tree nymph dance, and the Spring flower dance, but none of these brought the spirit of Spring, (Rachel Douthett). The Wild Rose (Jean Morton) brought the Spirit (solo dance). '1 he spirit of Spring entered attended by sport (stunts). Wanderlust (gypsy- dance) and romance. The Wild Rose and the Spirit of Spring then danced accom- panied by the villagers and dancers.

President’s Reception Dr. and Mrs. McChesney’s reception for the students is a pleasure which we anticipate every spring, and we can safely say we are never disappointed. Last year it was an unusually happy occasion. Our President and his wife have the faculty of making one and all feel quite at home. 1 he lunch served to a large number of guests was particularly delicious. Later in the evening we sang the old songs and new songs, and everyone carried home the impression of a happy and memorable evening spent in an ideal home. S. M. C. Killhty.riuht Committal Service Our Committal Service this year was indeed lovely and impressive. It was ar- ranged by Frances McChcsncy, president of Y. W. C. A. of ‘30—as a Thanks- giving Committal Service. It was held in the Presbyterian Church. As a special feature a half hour organ recital was held before the opening of the service by Mr. Marion Hostetler.

Then the program continued much as the Committal Services have continued for a number of years in Cedarville College Y. V. C.

At the close of this part of the Service a beautiful bouquet of (lowers was presented Miss McChcsncy for her splendid contribution toward the success of our Service.

Yes. it was a social and a financial success. It was held on a crisp Friday morning in November at Miss Ruth Marshall’s home from 7 to 9 A. M. Considering the early hour there was a surprisingly large crowd out. Many of the college fellows came out (about 8:30) and partook of the hot waffles, sausage and coffee. About sixty persons were served. Dr. Mac was there. Calling for a second helping he said. “Your Waffle Breakfast seems to be quite a success. 1 propose that it be made an annual affair. Ninety Riproarin' Weddin’ THE home of Miss Doris Swahv, north of town, was a scene of a “Riproarin Weddin’,” Thursday evening, April 9. 1931. when the ceremony uniting Miss Rosebud Delicatessen and Mr. Archibald Hercules Headlight in the Holy Ronds of Wedlock was rudely disturbed by a rejected suitor. Mr. Joe Foster, and his gang of would-be desperadoes from Cedarvillc. It was one of those lovely evenings in April when sudden calamities occur. Twilight had stolen down upon the country home. Everything was in readiness for the wedding—almost. Downstairs, flic tables were set; the chicken simmering on the stove; the salad set aside to cool; the ice cream packed away in the cellar; the bridal flowers delivered and placed in a cool place; the bridal bower in the living room wait- ing invitingly; in the parlor the few early guests gathered idly gossiping. Upstairs was the flurry and excitement common with weddings. There was much excited questioning and directing, and much suffering as the stronger sex struggled with Tuxedos, and much anxiety as responsibility settled on inexperienced shoulders. Con- vention was overlooked. Roth sexes mingled freely in the dressing rooms. It was not an unusual sight to Miold a dainty Miss buttoning a perspiring gentleman into a stiff bosomed shirt, adjusting his suspenders, tying his shoe. etc. There was small talk of the gang’s threat to “Rust up the weddin’.” Suddenly the hub-hub inside subsided with a “WHOOP!” from the outside— subsided to break out anew in a changed atmosphere. 'The ladies paled or giggled hysterically: the gentlemen muttered behind their smart mustaches. 'The gang was attempting to carry out the threat. However, there was not undue anxiety for pre- cautions had been taken against uninvited guests—in the way of locked doors and win- dows. '1 bus. the dressing went on until a scream from a far room stilled the hub-bub once more. I he unwelcome visitors had found an unlocked window and. swarming up over the porch roof were making a triumphant entry with shouts of victory. Then in- deed was the wedding party dismayed. The bride trembled. The minister, always a retiring, unassuming little gentleman rushed to the defense, waving aloft his white carnation. He grasped the sill of the raised window, crashed it down, well-nigh fracturing the skull of one ne’er-do-well who, unaware of the pending danger was following fast upon the heels of his predecessor. 'The fast following gang, however, soon routed the Reverend Gentleman, who dismayed at his attempted assassisation retired to think it over. The gang meanwhile had gained entrance and its members had arranged themselves about the bridal bower where with loud laughter and rude jesting they awaited the ceremony. 'The wedding proceeded as if nothing had happened. Just before the processional Miss Nina Stevenson sang Recause” and “I Love You Truly.” These numbers were boisterously applauded by the intruders. Then to the measured beat of the Wedding March played by Miss Lcnora Skinncl came the processional. First came the ushers. Messrs. Martin and Swahv; then, the little flower girl. Miss Lois Cultice; then, the little ring bearer. Master Martha Lackey; then, the bridesmaids, Misses R rad ley. Auld, McLaughlin. Waddle; these were followed by the Maid of Honor, Miss Rachel Douthett, lovely in pink, carrying pink and white sweet peas; lastly, came the bride. (Miss Helen Powers) upon the arm of her father Dr. R. Elias. She was more than lovely in her white georgette gown and veil. In her arms she carried a huge boquet of White Madonna Lillies and white sweet peas. 'The wedding party was met at the inrl n-OHf CEDRUS altar by the groom, (Miss Mildred Carle), the best man, Mr. Sarah Rumbaugh, the minister, Mr. Carmen Frazier, ushered in by Messrs. Chance and Marshall. Amid jeers, comments, and coarse laughter the ceremony commenced. 'Flu Rev- erend Gentleman, realizing the momentous ness of the occasion, exerted all his oratori- cal powers and, though having to pause a number of times to await silence, he con- cluded the ceremony and pronounced the couple husband and wife. With a sigh of thanksgiving the friends and relatives realized the intruders had failed to make good their boast. Evidently they were catering to the inner man—they had been promised dinner upon good behavior. File friends extended the couple hearty congratulations. The would-be despera- does expressed the intention of kissing the bride, hut apparently they lacked hte boldness they had at first assumed. A delicious dinner of creamed chicken, mashed potatoes, creamed cauliflower, silver and gold salad, Angel Food cake, -----------------coffee was served. (Score one for the visitors. They stole the ice cream.) Faiiniiig-Tanner A very quiet hut impressive wedding ceremony was witnssed by members, friends and relatives Thursday evening, April 10. 1930, when Miss Dorothy Fanning and Mr. L. 'Fanner were united in marriage—the ceremony taking place at the home of Miss Ruth Marshall, the Reverend Frances McChesnev officiating. The dining room and living room were beautifully decorated—a yellow and white color scheme being carried out. A lovely bridal arch, built in the living room served as the altar. Preceding the ceremony Miss Mary Ruth Wham sang ‘‘1 Love You Truly” and “O Promise Me. Then the strains of the Wedding March marked the entrance of the processional. Down the winding stairway it came; first, the ushers, Messrs. Carle and Kirby, Followed by the little flower girls. Misses Bishop and Badstuber; then pre- ceding the bride’s attendants was the little ring bearer. Master Jean Morton; then the bridesmaids. Miss Auld, Mrs. Betty Graham; then the Maid of Honor, Miss Hilma Raisenen; lastly, came the bride leaning upon the arm of her father, the Hon. I). Wolfe. Fhe bride was lovely in white silk crepe and long floating veil. She carried a bouquet of white roses. At the altar the bridal party was met by the groom and the best man, Mr. G. Martin and the minister, these being ushered by Messrs. Marshall and Tobias. After the ceremony a delicious luncheon was served the guests. Miss Helen Powers, finding the ring in her piece of cake was proclaimed the bride for ’31. C. F. CEDRUS AS all Junior Classes must raise money to banquet the Seniors, and as the Class of ’32 is not an exception to the rule, it also bad to secure some means whereby it might fulfill its duty and so it was decided that the class should present a play. Realizing that they must choose something above the ordinary in order to keep up with the College’s high standard, they decided to give a comedy, “Old Lady 31” by Rachel Brothers. They were fortunate in securing the services of Esther Smith Schick, to whom the Juniors owe their success. The play was presented before a capacity house on Wednesday evening, April 8. 1931, and its success was apparent from the first. The lines were well spoken, all responded to their cues, and as on later remarked. “Every- thing went lovely.” YVilda Auld with her meekness and Ed Hinton with his slow drawl acted the parts of Angie and Abe to perfection. The lovers played by Ruth Marshall and Ed Irons, furnished the comedy; and the necessary romance was well taken care of by Rachel Douthctt and Henry hidings, the former as Mary and the latter as John. In all. as the theatrical critics would say. it had an all-star cast, and was worthy of anyone’s time to have seen it. S. M. C. Angie---------- Abe........... Nancy--------- M rs. Hammans.

Minstrel The Cedarville College Minstrel, the big show boat of fun. is given every two years. The year of 1930 was the scheduled year for it. The year of 1930 marks an advance in the displaying of unknown and unheard of talent. The minstrel this year was something out of the ordinary as minstrels go, due to the talent displayed and due to the spirit and energy displayed in preparing for it and giving it. The cast had more fun in presenting it than the audience did in seeing it. Under the able leadership of our interlocutor. Professor Burst, and the wild antics of our super-end men Shorty Kinnison, Henry hidings. Bob Bratton and Robert Wilson. A barrel of fun was unearthed on the nitc of May 1, 1930. We wish to congratulate and thank the male and also some of the female student body for the wonderful spirit shown in the presenting of this bit of high class showmanship.

An unusually large number of young people are seeking information and the outlook for an increased Freshman class is very bright. Cedarville College offers courses for practically every pursuit in life. The entire expense for tuition, books, furnished room, light, heat, and boarding runs from 386 to $450 for the year. All young people who expect to climb to the top will find it abso- lutely necessary to have a college education. Cedarville College is a Christian institution. It has the commendation of four large presby- teries of the Presbyterian Church in southwestern Ohio. It is in a cam- paign to raise an additional three hundred thousand dollars for its en- dowment fund by 1934 and eventually to add to that two hundred and fifty thousand dollars more and to erect as soon as possible two buildings, a girls’ dormitory and a chapel with offices for administration attached to it. Cedarville College appeals to all Christian people of means who believe in a genuine Christian education to contribute liberally to the work of the college.
