Seine were awkward, some were bashful, while others rushed in in ' where Seniors feared to tread. Although, our Class of 1923 was a hard band to surpass. . As Freshmen, we took part in all student activities. To us as Seniors, these early attempts appear somewhat crude, still, behind it all is the knowledge that there was a desire to keep things going. This restless energy, properly directed, has proved the worth of the class. In our Sophomore year we lacked two things,-conceit and snobbery. We had one fault,-a consuming passion for study. We had numerous aspirations, but our chief aim was to have our lessons well prepared. We cast aside frivolities of our earlier careers and adopted a policy of hard and consistent study. Each year brought greater things. In originality, genius, and invention, our Junior Class was unsurpassed. Having steadily increased in quality and in num- bers, the Juniors were in the lead in all college pursuits. We were called upon to decide all matters of weight. The only thing we could not settle was our own love affairs. Entering upon our Senior year, our ranks again increased. We are a popular class and many, attracted by our superiority, have studied hard and joined us. The preceding Senior classes have been loud in singing their own praises, but we, being wholly original, will let our actions speak for us. Ask for preachers, and we present to you stars in football, basket ball, tennis, and strolling. Preachers? They number seven, and of orators, teachers, and musicians, we have a goodly share. We are also of a social turn of mind, for we have in our midst four happily married men, with others on the waiting list. You will find us active in mental, physical, religious, and social life,-the fourfold plan of our class motto, Be Square. Though we are leaving Central VVesleyan, perhaps never to meet again, we shall remain steadfast to the sound principles of her teaching. May the friend- ships we have formed at college ever prove to us a potent inspiration. May the memory of' the ideals of our Alma Mater be a guiding influence in our lives. The spirit of Central Wesleyan is our priceless heirloom from the past. Let us bequeath it undiminished to the future.

Junior Class History OW we are Juniors, care-free, happy, interested in everything and everyone. We attend our classes regularly, for what would the poor professorsido if we were not there to answer their questions? We have memories, -gi: though indistinct, of days long past when we were Freshmen. The picture becomes clearer. To be sure, we were Freshmen, green, unsophisticated, cutting a class one hour, attending another under the same professor the next. We possessed individuality and pep. One day our class appeared wearing caps and armbands, neat green and white adornments. Many a Sophomore cast an enviouseye upon them. They gathered in groups, spoke in low tones, gesticulating meaningly. Suspicious? Our numbers probably saved us, for there were forty-five lads and lassies in the class of '24, In order to become better acquainted with each other we had an outing. What a wonderful evening we enjoyed, sitting around a campfire in the Charrette hills! The next outstanding event of our Freshman year was the Sophomore-Freshman banquet. There is a saying that, f'The best way to get to a person's heart is through his stomach. The Sophomores became our everlasting friends. The next fall found our class greatly diminished in numbers but not in enthusiasm. The class of '24 had now become Sophomores, full of wisdom and fully realizing its importance. The first big event of our second year was an outing, a very unusual one. It drizzled, it rained, it poured. We got wet, wetter, and finally drenched. Not so our spirits. We drove on and on. Wewere in quest of something. It was not the Holy Grail, the Fountain of Youth, or yet Captain Kidd's buried treasures. We were just searching for a good time. VVe found it. During the year it was our privilege to be the host to the Freshmen at the annual banquet. In the language of a sport writer, Eating featured the evening. A Sophomore orchestra, a sketch, speeches, yells, and songs were added attractions. Thus we became Juniors. This is the happiest year in college life. Seniors become sad when they remember that this will be their last year in dear old Wfesleyan. They worry about their theses, majors and minors, practice-teaching classes, next year's position, and countless other things. The Sophomores' and the Freshmen obediently take all the required subjects, study hard, and hope for the best. Juniors really live. We enjoy life and worry only about our next date. Just one short year, but worth looking forward to and back upon. VVe were very fortunate in securing for this year's annual Junior class' play Dear Brutus, J. M. Barrie's latest production. The success of the play was due to the hearty cooperation of the entire class with the director, Miss Plaehn. Immediately after the play we received an invitation from the Seniors to be their guests at a banquet. Needless to say, we accepted. It was a delightful evening with our fellow students who leave this institution in June. They have set a high standard for us to strive to attain. We hope that when the class of '24 graduates, it will leave nothing but honor behind it. one. 1 do ries, The ted, ext. hite zred bers 'hat S! nan -ugh tin and an tter, lest iain the ig. ms. lors old ing the the ate.

The professors were so impressed with the quality and T i the quantity of this class that during the first week of school they gasped with wonder and said to one another in their bewilderment, Will they never stop coming? Finally, when their number reached fifty-four, they sang, Hail, Hail, the Gang's All Here! ' , Ofcourse the Class of '25, which put 'forigin in originality, surprised the upper classmen by having its mascots sing: Everybody calls us Freshies, you can call us Freshies too. A On the evening of February 22, 1922, the Class of ,24 entertained these bright Freshmen at a sumptuous banquet, the L'feed and fun of which were enjoyed by all. Again the Freshmen became prominent in the current events of college life, when they picked the Sophomores up bodily and threw them out of the College building. Such was the punishment of classmen who had attempted to interfere with a Freshmanclass meeting. At the Junior EX., to be both heard and seen, the Freshmen carried bright balloons and cry-babies, besides giving a large variety of songs and yells., In the fall of 1922 this class emerged from the babyhood stage into the much envied Sophomore Class. At the students' reunion the class resolved to be different and disregarded all traditions by giving the Freshmen the hand of Welcome and wishing them good luck by presenting to them their mascots of the previous year. February 22, 1923, the Church Parlors became the scene of activity when the Sophomores entertained The Beaux and Bellesf' of ye Freshman Class. Once more the Sophomores gained success by their originality. The Freshmen learned to their sorrow that to get ahead of Sophomores is about as hard and unsuccessful as their attempt to climb over the transom into Philo- Garfield Hall after the Sophomores announced in chapel their intention to use it. Nothing need be said about the Sophomores at Junior Ex., because everyone knows that all the other classes were simply Min the shade. This class which has made such a famous record in two short years Will certainly go down in the annals of Central VVesleyan history as the best class that ever entered the halls of C. W. C.

I W Freshmen Freshman Class History T the beginning of the year, there assembled at Central Nvesleyan a group of students from the four corners of the earth, which was to become the illustrious class of 26. After the tears of homesickness had ceased to TC A flow and we began to realize why we were here, we felt the need of organization and a class meeting was immediately called and the officers for the year were elected. Under their leadership, we set forth to accomplish those things for which we had assembled. It was not long before our superior talent was recognizegd. Consequently, when the college quartette was chosen, three of our members were selected. Our class is also well represented in the college chorus, the orchestra, and the band. This, however, only represents one phase of our activities. Six, members played on the Varsity Football Teamg five helped to win the Missouri Intercollegiate Athletic Association basket ball championship. The strength of our track team depended upon the dexterity of our sprinters and the agility of our pole-vaulters. On the diamond several of the class went to compose the Varsity Nine. Not -only in music and athletics does the Freshman class stand out prominently, but in religious activities as well. Some of the leading men on the Gospel teams and the Y. M. C. A. cabinet are Freshmen. We realize that our responsibility increases with the talents we possess and are developing. Could such a thing be possible, that a class so endowed could fall short of what might be expected of it? After we have been adequately prepared by diligent pursuit of those things that are .worth while, we shall go back to the four corners of the earth from whence we came, in order that all mankind may reap the benefits of our labors. , l fm Yr' , I 'ji Ui P1 Sf ill f Eg? 7 1 ,gf 31.

CI-IILES Principal of the Academy All Academy LOWLY but surely, as the method of all progress, hastened but little by L incident revolution, our Academy has grown from a small preparatory school, which was founded many years ago, and developed into our present Academy. Fostering this progress through the successive. years were the brawn and brain and buckle of efficient leaders who have left us to inherit and enjoy what they learned and enjoyed through their intelligent and conscientious leadership. Foremost among them and still devoting himself to our culture and training is our own Professor Chiles. Being himself a graduate of this college and having further prepared himself in other schools he is most capable of filling this honored position as Principal of the Academy. His proud, yet mild spirit, his firm but gentle administration, his sympathetic and kind heart have won the admiration of us all, and have made him beloved among us. Administering, advising, guiding, he has piloted our Academy through three successive years of steady onward progress. ' V Our school with an enrollment of about one hundred twenty members is by various methods proving and developing the native abilities of members, thus accomplishing its original and principal purpose. One of the channels through which this aim is realized is our annual Declamatory contest for both boys and girls, who vie with each other for first place and the prizes to be awarded. Friendly competition, self-assertion, and forensic training are the principles of the game. Another of our invaluable traditions is our custom of dual debates, with high schools of neighboring vicinities and towns. An elimination contest, prior to the debate proper, determines who shall be chosen as members of the teams representing us. The debates, won or lost, have proved a boon to our school, a literary accom- plishment, a stimulus to good sportsmanship, a light upon hidden truths. thi for roi Sq its pr gii mu wl fat su Or ca, im lif wl of thi me gi' he we sa ho Or Ck otl we pa ye we ke be gr he ou , by gory our ears to ind our :his e of 1ild von ing, ears by hus ugh and Ldly Ligh the ting om- 4 5? A, . ..,-55 ,ill I ' i ii7iE? -af 31- ,. Central Wesleyan Academy is known to produce athletes. Especially during the last few years has this been noticeably true. Many of Coach Harmon's stalwart foot-ball men are chosen from the ranks of the Academy. During the winter our round of victories and final triumph in basket-ball was probably due to the excellent squad material received from the Academy. The Girls' Squad too is coming into its own, perhaps because of the loyal work of the several Academy girls who occupy prominent positions upon the floor. The track teams, too, find Academy boys and girls among their number. We honor all these boosters of our College, and attribute much of our success as a school to their good sportsmanship and hearty cooperation. We came to the Academy to prepare ourselves for something in the future, whether it be a vocation, a further education, or simply general culture and satis- faction in life. Besides the general Academic course, are the special departments, supplying these needs by offering specific training in the kind of work desired. One of these is the Teacher Training Department, with Professor Chiles as its capable Superintendent. ln this branch we are prepared, in a good measure, to impart to American childhood the basic knowledge essential to the most fruitful life, to world citizenship, and to the best moral equipment. Another of these special departments is the School of Business and Commerce, which, with the help of its able instructor, Professor Luedde, will furnish a number of the efficient stenographers, typists and bookkeepers who are to be employed in the business world. Besides all these, there are many students who are specializing in the depart- ments of music, art, oratory, the ministry and the household arts. These students give promise of distinguishing themselves in their life-work and becoming valuable helpers in the uplifting of all society. The general Academic course fills its place well by furnishing the' preparation necessary for a further education and at the same time giving many the desired culture and fitness for the earning of a liveli- hood, the service of a community, and the enjoyment of life. Year by year the Academy is claiming its rightful independence of the College. One of the many indications of this forward movement is our separate Academy Chapel. Regularly we meet in one of the Society Halls, where Professor Chiles and other members of the Academy Faculty lead our Chapel services. lt is here that we reecive much moral help and inspiration, the original purpose of this short pause between the periods of our daily work. Another token of our progress is our flourishing Literary Societies. During this year three societies, the Whittiers, Aristonians, and the Academy Debating Club were organized, and gave very interesting and helpful programs. They help us to keep pace with the day in which we live besides developing our natural talents. Throughout all our sojourns in the Academy, we have learned truths that shall be told, and made friendships that shall last. We hope ever to go on learning, growing, unfolding, ever valueing and using all the good we have gleaned here, having as our ultimate goal the genuine satisfaction that we have made the world, our nation, our school and ourselves a little better than we found them.-E.

Do you ask why? Let ussee: Every year in September our Alma Mater seats herself at the loom and begins a beautiful tapestry. She is master of the weaver's art and her tapestry glows with tints but we notice that she employs chiefly four colors and the basic one is green. XVith a sigh that is half pleasure and half regret she gives her tapestry to the lvlaster of ltterniiy, then turns to take stock of material for her next piece. lt is all there except her basic shadeg she has no green. Xvlltlllftb shall it coine? She turns to the Academy Faculty: More green, children, more green. And this group never fails her, it always meets her need. But this is not the only voice that calls. There are others: The spirit of the school-house on the hill calls for trained teachers. This group sends them forth. The business world calls for clerks, for bookkeepers and stenographersg again this group answers the call. But are these recruits to the business and professional world green also? Yes green, but it is not the green of the stagnant pool, it is the green of youth and springtime, of budding strength and vigor' the green that D D gives to summer its beauty, to autumn its fruits and to winter its store of content. This task of preparing students for college, of giving them a start in life and of opening their eyes to eternal miracles belongs as a duty, a privilege a joy to the Academy Faculty.

'Ilhird Academy sg I-IREE years ago a brave little band of Pilgrims departed from the valley of happy, care-free Way for the summit of the mountain of knowledge. They selected the path which led to Central XVesleyan Academy, because 'V they deemed it to be the shortest and best route to their destination. So one bright sunny day in September they manfully turned their faces toward their goal and set out on this hazardous journey. They soon found the steep, rocky path of experience to be beset with many obstacles and difficultiesg but their dauntless spirits drove them ever onward. ' Never before had they traveled on such a road! They were beset on every side by hostile oppressors called Upper-classmen. At first they were rather timid, but soon got into the school spirit and had a lot of pep, although they didn't show off much. In a iew words they were all around good sports. Struggling courageously through bogs of sticky Latin, they were retarded in their march by a troublesome old man, English, who insisted on going with themg toiled laboriously over steep hills of Algebra and with much effort crossed the Lake of Ancient History. lnia eul, ecil ley ge. ise So eir ky eir ary id, n't in FHS he Then, one day after having taken a much needed rest of three months, they again continued their journey, and sought to maintain the high stand'arrls they had set for themselves. Secure as the Milky Why has their path of glory remained. But why speak of it? Their achievements speak for themselves far better than words can tell. On this journey they met with as many difficulties as before. A steep hill of Geometry that made the hills' of Algebra look like molehills, was climbed by the aid of compasses and rules. Again Mr. English, urging rules ol punctuation, spelling, letter writing, forced his presence upon them, and the bog of Caesar almost succeeded in sucking its victims down. After spending another three months in Vacation Park the travelers started on theirthird journey. Here they met Mr. Chemistry whom they conquered with great difficulty. Mr. English seemed older and fiercer than at first. Some passed with trepidation through Medieval and Modern Jungle, others wandered courage- ously through Typewriting and Shorthand Valley, while others reached the same destination by other routes of travel as best adapted to their individual tastes. Our class is now represented in practically every branch and department of activity, but while we have not as many achievements of which to boast, it is also to be remembered that we have no mistakes to mourn, no blunders to blot our record. The future lies before us, of which we shall endeavor to make the best. Loyalty to our class, school, and faculty has ever been our watchwordg and we are now prepared by our habit of industry and perseverance to assume with honor and dignity all of the responsibilities that fall to the lot of a Fourth Academy. We hope that every member of the class will return next year with renewed energy, and we are sure we will make it even a better year than this one. Now we bid farewell to the past year-a fair flower in life's bouquet, and with only one more stretch of road to traverse, our sturdy band is looking with anticipation toward finishing the journey and reaching the longed-for goal, Graduation City.

Academy Class of '25 FTER two full and profitable years, we, the undaunted Academy Class of '25, have come into full sway with the splendid harmony of student social life, and activities, beside the search of high morals and sound C 'ii' ' principles from studies and class rooms. The members of our class may not be among the most popular students, never-the-less our aim is unswervingly high, and within the next two years some of our number will have a hand in placing laurels on the good reputation of dear old Central Wesleyan. I In perfect comparison with the old proverb: 'tThe best is in the smallest, our class, the smallest and probably the most modest, is one source of membership for the College Band, Orchestra, Foot-ball Team, and-the Chorus and Choir. The whole of our class, eight of the fairer-sex, and twelve stalwarts, stretch eagerly toward the door of the third Academy, though our aim be far beyond that. The complete friendliness which reigns among our worthy number is evidenced by the fact that since we entered the Academy, two years ago, we have been pleased with and respected the same talented Harvey Morre as our able President. lily, nan ass ent ind lay Sly in :ur lip tch lat. :ed :en We wish to be remembered in that We always smiled at difficult problems, in that our endeavor was to sow love and happiness among our fellow students and also that the Academy Class of '25, Is similar to a small bee-hive In Central Wesleyan, As on the road to Sense and Wit, It gathers Prudence, Love and Grit, By digging all it can.

F irst Academ g 6,5 N a bright day of September of 1922, the bells of Central Wesleyan sum- moned together a class of Academy Freshmen, the future pride of the school. It consists of a wonderful collection of those things, called .g.,:w.-2 . . students, who have been so interestingly endowed by nature that they boast of ranging all the way from the Missouri Ozarks to the Asiatic Himalayas tin heightj. Mentally, they are unsurpassed as a whole. Doctor Ebeling, having the privilege of instructing this class in a branch of natural science, takes pride in that not one of his pupils ever make over one luuidred. Miss Skibbe asks 'iVv'liere do we get our knowledge concerning the Feudal Age in Egypt? Academy Freshie answers, From Doctor Breasteds Ancient History. Such marvelous Ancient History students! And so in algebra-fwhen you add you subtract and when you subtract you add-quite simple! The class is especially blessed by the nieinhership of an UE student, the like ol which the college has never before seen. Ile delights in repeating a familiar phrase, uC01Il1.l6i,li,l0ll is the spice ol' life. I ann sorry to say there is no one to compete with him. Ile treads his way over the flowery path of knowledge as lightly as a feather with the wind. From Missouri doth he come, the state in which many of Americas prominent men first see the light of day. His name is Louis Krueger. Herbert Schnarre has the privilege of coming next. 'Tis a pleasing sight to see, he strives to reach the plane of understanding possessed by his superior class- mate already mentioned. Although rather small he may seine day soar to heights unbelievable. His last lay on his Cornet shall praise the honorable class to which he belongs. Sound forth the music! A Reverend! Professor! Theodore XVOIH!--such a title is envious. He is another pride of the class. His fictitious class title, Reverend Professor, showing his high SSI' 'ISS im- the led ney yas ing 'ide sks my ous md ike liar to as in z is see, Lss- hts ich her igh estimation by the class, gives some clue as to his probable future profession. Hel strives daily to set an example by which all his fellow-creatures may gain undis- puted profit. The class would mourn a heavy loss should this great class president be hurled against misfortune and forced to discontinue attending the Academy. Helen Ereiser is one of those kind maidens that help to brighten the world. She is true and truly from Truesdale. Every morning as she enters the classroom she presents a happy face of contentment, mingled with an air of satisfaction for work accomplished.. She sees her opportunities and works to fulfill them. From Truesdale does Lillian VanBibber also seek her daily adventures west- ward. Through her delightful voice-box the class receives the daily news of the happenings and mishappenings of nearby Truesdale. She has a sweet temperament -fortunately for some of her classmates delight in tormenting her. A very pleasant person is she and an honorable classmate. Homer Hummel makes the third from Truesdale. He reminds one of the Iliad and the Odyssey but I don't seem to getpthe connection. He generally has a good supply of' books on hand and usually knows what's in them. Of nature and the outdoor world he knows not little for he is the notable naturalist of the class. Ruth Wall is another. She' is accomplished in art and sewing. Her one outstanding feature is her head of curly black hair. Scott would describe it thus: And seldom was a Snood amid Such wild, luxuriant ringlets hid, Whose glossy black to shame might bring The plumage of a raven's Wing. She delights in doing pranks, the source of laughter to the class. Then there is one who appears to know twice as much as anyone else for when told of something out of the ordinary he replies. Awe, that's nothin'. Before long Missouri will be producing a Solomon the Second for the volume of Who's Who. The class feels very much honored for the membership of Hay Schmidt. He is the unexcelled violinist of his class and may become a musician to be envied. Beware, Jesse, here comes your adversary. Lucile Meier is a quiet industrious student. She believes in never put off till tomorrow what you can do today. Her voice is sweet but weak, which often causes an unpleasant feeling within her, as Miss Skibbe replies, uThat was a perfectly beautiful answer, Miss Meier, had we only heard it.', She is a worthy classmate. Della Salzwedel is a preachers L'Kid.', The piano is her instrument. She, too, delights when her grades present an E, the product of her diligent study. She must have marvelous speed for she seems to be everywhere at the same time, and- well that's all. I Clarence Czechin is the most popular person in the class since he possesses the envious capability of wiggling his ears. He is rather wise and doesn't mind giving advice. He simply knows everything without having to study-that's a fact! The class is very proud of this, their most amiable cheer leader. Crouching at the end of this line sits the last classmate. R. H.

HE Department of Oratory gives to the students of Central Wesleyan Dollege instruction in class work and private work. One of the courses in this department, required of all who graduate from the college, is a class in the essentials of Public Speaking. This is a very valuable course. Quite a bit of time is devoted to different types of speeches for various occasions. The students also learn to make extemporaneous speeches. To get up before the class in this way is the best possible training for speaking before an audienceg it develops self'-control, ease and power in speaking. Other courses are those in interpretive Reading and Story Telling. The intelligent and sympathetic interpre- tation of good literature makes its appeal to college students not classified in the department. The story telling is especially valuable for girls, who receive prac- tical experience in their visits to the VVarrenton schools. Courses in Argumentation and Debate, Bible and Hymn Heading, and the Oral Interpretation of Shakesperean Drama are also offered if enough students desire those classes. A The Department of Oratory offers excellent opportunities for private instruction. Ae four year high school course is required of every Oratory graduate and a definite amount of private Work in addition to giving both a Junior and a Senior ltecital. Both the classified and unclassified students participate in recitals held throughout the year. This not only gives them confidence in appearing before an audience but stimulates them to highest endeavor. i , L A l I X l g l l t r l I ? l l 1 I F 1 l l l l it 'l l 1 I 1 ! l r J l 1 i 1 1 l i 4 I l 1 I I 1 l 4 I I , ' l lt 1 l .

For this service AIQAX ' - . - . , h inf, Ni the Theological Seminaiy aims to piepare young men and Women bot lkatz 3. 37 ministers and social workers in the home land and as missionaries foreign countries. About one-third of the graduates of C. W. C. have entered the Christian ministry or missionary work, and are filling important positions as city pastors and successful rural ministers. Ai '31 as -'I C? in To those desiring to enter any phase of Christian Lifework this department otlers many modernized courses which prepare for Well equipped Christian leadership. Instruction in this department is given by four professors. Emphasis is placed upon the practical training of the students as Well as upon class-room Work. Every Thursday evening the Seminar meets for practical Work, at which time the professors speak and answer questions, the students preach, followed hy a discussion of the sermon and the best methods of effective preaching. Of the students enrolled in this department, ten serve as pastors of churches, while others are active on gospel teams or as teachers in the Sunday Schools of Warrenton and Truesdale. ice nth ies ive int ant all on rk, zh, ng. es, of School of Business R.

In addition to these courses, we oiter eonnnereial law, com- J inercial geography, sulesinanship, and oifice training. The requiienients for graduation from this department are the same as those in any standard eoininercial college or in first class high school commercial departments. Not only do the students receive diplonins for the successful completion ol the prescribed work in bookkeeping and stenography, but academy credit is given to the academy students taking any of the major courses. Several of our last years students took the Gregg Shorthand teaeher's examini- nfitions and received the Gregg Teaclier's Certificate with honors. Many of our typewriting students :ire receiving various Underwood awards for efficiency in typing. This year's enrollment in the various courses offered totals eighty and the outlook for the future of this department is very bright.

Teacher Training Department The Teacher Training Department was added to the Academy in September of 1917. During the six years of its existence Professor Chiles has hadlcharge of this Work. I 7 A The teacher training courses were added to the Missouri High School Course of Study by action of the General Assembly in 1913 for the purpose of supplying better trained rural and elementary school teachers for this state. Since that time nearly 8000 young men and women have been added to the teaching ranks by this means. Q These courses consist of three units of high school work which may be elected by third and fourth year students. In Course I, Arithmetic, Language-Grammar, Reading and Geography are' reviewed. Both subject matter and methods of teaching are emphasized. Course II includes Elementary Educational Psychology, Physiology, Hygiene and Sanitation, and School Management. Course III is devoted to Observation and Practice Teaching. By arrangement with the School Board and the Superintendent of the VVarrenton Public Schools the teacher- training students do all the substitute teaching in the city schools. Besides this one week is devoted to practice teaching in rural schools. In this way the principles of education may be imnicdiately applied to concrete situations. Upon completion of the teacher training courses the State Superintendent of Public Schools issues to the students a two-year state certificate which may, after one year of successful teaching and a summer term in a college or university, be converted into a First Grade County Certificate.

It is a subject which rightfully should demand much consideration. The time is not far distant when a knowledge of the principles of diet will be an essential part of one's education. Then mankind will be able to do better mental and physical work, and disease will be less frequent. The department of Home Economics has been organized here to help solve these problems and to better prepare folks for healthful living. Those interested in needle work will also find many interesting courses offered. Besides the construction of garments and the principles of color and line, a study of the fabrics commonly used is made. Tests are applied so that one may know their real value.

T Orchestra ENTRAL NVesleyan Orchestra consists of about twenty-tive aspiring young players who are banded together to study some serious and some lighter works, and incidentally to get much good practice in orchestral TH technique. This should do us much good in after years. This body furnishes all the music at Junior Ex., and other plays given in Kessler. Each year we give one concert, usually assisted by seine soloist from another city. Last year we accompanied the Operetta given in June, and it is the plan of the director to have us do the same this year. Now and then we get a call from some other city for a concert, but the expense oi transporting all the large instruments and so-niany people has thus far proved prohibitive. Probably when our state highway is functioning, we shall be able to go with less expense-at least to nearby towns. This season we have four first violins, three seconds, two cellos, one double-bass, two flutes, one clarinet, one saxophone, three cornets, two trombones, one French horn, piano, drums an-.l xylophone, all under the direction of Prof. J. C. Eisenberg. Any student in College or in the Conservatory showing some ability on any instrument. is invited to become a member. All money made from admission fees to concerts or donated to us is used to purchase music and paraphernalia. During the past few years we have purchased a flute, a cello, a double-bass, a snare drum, a viola, and a Xylophone besides paying all other expenses incident to running this line aggregation of young musicians.

Eisenberg enjoyed a x' I very successful year and could always be depended on to furnish appro- priate music on occasions where pep was the one thing most needed. T' Although it was this organizations first year together, it was possible to be of service at the beginning ofthe fall athletic season as well as through the remainder of the year. Uniforms of the attractive College colors added much to the appearance of the band, and helped promote College spirit when seen in the held. It was a memorable day for the band when they accompanied the Foot Ball Squad to Moberly for the big game with Central of Fayette. They showed the people along the Wabash that Central VVesleyan was very much alive and attracted large crowds within hearing distance of the special car. I They assisted the College Quartette in giving an entertainment in Kessler Hall, and on this occasion difficult overtures were played, which was a test of their accomplishment. Neighboring towns were visited with this same program and large and appreciative audiences were found. The Band also furnished music for local civic aifairs when called upon, and in this way was of service to the community as well as the College. ' It seems that Prof. Eisenberg has a knack of converting a tiresome practice hour into a period of anticipated pleasure and as a result the boys could he depended on to be present, which accounted for the rapid progress made. Every member is enthusiastic and promises more for the coming year. I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I , I I i I I I I I I I I I .

Waihl, tirst bass, and Carl Fischer, second bass. The four voices possess a remarkable blending quality. Besides singing songs of the more sensational type, they also sing some of a strictly operatic type. Not only do the members of the quartette show great interest in their company, but the students, also, boost the organization whenever the oppor- tunity presents itself. -' On February 28 the quartette, with the aid of the College Band, gave a unique minstrel show in Kessler Hall. The program was divided into two parts: first, a number of quartette songs and solos of a strictly classical type, then, a minstrel show. In the Minstrel Show the members of the quartette were blackened so as to represent negroes. Between these negroes there was a continuous crossfire of jokes, riddles, and trick-questions. There were also songs by Sambo, Bones, Rastus :ind Mose, with selections by the Band between spasms. This most interesting program has been given in at least a dozen of the neighboring towns. The most extensive trips the company made was taken to such towns as Berger, Hermann, and Drake. We can truthfully say that this is the best Male Quartette Central Wesleyan has had for a great number of years, and we rejoice in the fact that they will all return for the year Then, under the careful supervision of Prof. Eisenberg, they shall accomplish even more than in the past year. ike, The :ine ctly t in por- quo rst, trel v as 2 of stus :ing lost inn, yan all GF8, Harvey Morre, Miss Zimmermann, Professor Hohn, Miss Gisler. g Church uartette HE Church Quartette is not strictly a college organization but is indirectly TD R connected with the college. It furnishes the special music for the church services held at the college church. Its purpose is to aid in the services of worship by presenting a fine type of choir anthems. These singers have all had considerable experience in choir singing and so are able to interpret their selections well. ' The quartette has also given several sacred and secular concerts on Lyceinn courses in small towns near VVarrenton. The personnel of the quartette is Miss Ruth Ziinnierinann, sopranog Miss Luella Gisler, contraltog Mr, Harvey Morre, tenorg Prof. G. C. Hohn, baritoneg and Prof. J. C. Eisenberg, director and organist. College Chorus ff,-f HE chorus is one of the largest organizations of the Conservatory. The director has this year selected about fifty voices which are so well ,Knight . .. . ips!! balanced that better harmonious eriects are possible than we have been E able to produce in many years. Among the singers are some who have made a good record as soloists, hence it is not necessary to go outside of four own forces to give any work we care to attempt. Several Sunday evenings have been devoted to sacred concerts. These have been a source of pleasure and spiritual uplift. Each year on Vlfednesday of Commencement week some good oratorio or opera has been given. This June we expect to present the opera, All at Sea, which is a compilation of the best solos and concerted numbers from four of the Gilbert and Sullivan Operas. S The fact that this work calls for about twenty solo parts shows that the director, Professor J. C. Eisenberg, believes that he has some very good material. We feel that this year will prove the best this organization has had, he 911 eu ve V11 V9 ra :h :Ft L9 11 Z f V E If I H Q. 1 I I Oratory and Debate , , . .V ... ...... ,,...,...,,-...-.,,,,-,M-.wgqgvf . . :.,. ..,.,-..1,-1...-..f.,..a1 .-.- 1 f..-.,1-:fv..1.f-1 5.

URING the past two years We have had triangular debates' with Central College and Missouri Valley. This is an arrangement which these three schools have had for a number of years and consequently a great deal of interest and friendly rivalry is created by this debate. There were nine men out for the tryout and from these the four men ranking highest were chosen for the team. This gave us three of last yearfs' debaters, Lindemeyer, Hohn, and Depping. Spohrer was the fourth man to make the team. This year the Board of Oratory and Debate, ever alert to promote forensics, offered a prize of ten dollars to the man ranking highest in the tryout and five dollars to the man ranking second. Depping took Iirst place and Holm second. The question for this year was, Resolved that the administration ship subsidy bill should be ratified by the Federal Government. Our negativeiteam, Depping and Spohrer, Won the debate from Missouri Valley, but our affirmative speakers, Lindemeyer and Hohn, lost to Central, It is interesting to note that the negative teams of the triangle won in each debate. At the state oratorical contest, held at WVestminster College this year, the advisability of organizing here a chapter of Pi Kappa Delta was discussed. We are hoping that this will be done and that it will be a means of fostering still greater interest in debating on our campus. - tral lI'Q6 leal ing ers, nn. d a the idy ing ers, ive the We till .-5 jg-ge' MI Vivian Edgar, Edna Hake, Luella Reckrneyer, Amanda Schake. Women's Debating Team ELIEVING that college women are interested in debating, Central Wesleyan has for three years maintained her college womens debating team. Arrangements with Central College and Culver-Stockton College were C- MCM' made for triangular debates. The first year's attempt brought us one victoryg in the second year we Won one debateg and We are confident we shall make as good a showing this year. The question for this year is, Resolved that the Cabinet Parliamentary form of government should be adopted by the United States. T Q i An annual tryout is held in which all women may participate. The team is chosen in this tryout and the speaker Winning first place receives ten dollars as a prize and the speaker winning second receives five dollars. These .prizes are offered by the Board of Oratory and Debate. VVomen's debating teams in the colleges and universities of the country are still new organizations and we are indeed proud that Central VVesleyan can say that she was one of the first schools in the state to have a debating team of women competing with similar teams from other colleges.

More than three-fourths of the human race took part in the struggle from the consequences of which it will not recover for centuries. Did then this Divine Man live in vain? VVas His sacrifice of no avail? Has the fabric built upon His principles been rent asunder and left in ruins? The devastating horror of War has been increased many fold by the inventions of our much-lauded science. For more than four years a score of great powers worked furiously night, and day destroying not only the products of the world's industry but also mowing clown its industrial agents. The chief crime of late wars-the self-destruction which the civilized world is deliberately inflicting upon itself-has been given relentless expression in this universal conflict. Continuance of present conditions would merit the prophecy that, Once more in history a whole civilization will commit suicide like Saul by falling upon its own sword. Not only human life but also the humanitarian spirit has suffered appalling conse- quences from these years of scientific, wholesale destruction. The combined national debt of the world amounts approximately to fifty dollars for every minute of time since Christ was born. Millions of suffering, starving children are looking f'or hope and succor, but find none. There are broken homes, broken bodies, and broken hearts, there is intense bitterness that will be transmitted to generations yet unborn. In the face of this grave situation, with gaunt starvation gnawing upon the life of nations, with millions unemployed, with social unrest and vice and crime-there are still wars and rumors of wars. The moral sense of humanity has suffered a woeful relapse. There is a lack oi a sense of honor making itself felt both in public and private life, dissevering bonds of friendship and love, tainting the legislative halls, and corrupting the administration of justice. There must be a thorough re-awakening ol' the moral conscience that prompts men to justice. Nations are beginning to realize that they must turn away from this frantic endeavor to build peace upon a materialistic and nationalistic basis, bulwarked' by physical force. The consequences of the recent war are an ominous warning. But they are also a challenge. They are calling Christian nations to unite and forever rid the world of legalized, ruthless slaughter. The aggressive alertness which characterizes the present age must be turned toward this supreme endeavor, so that the dawn of a new day shall speedily come in which We may hope to realize that the nineteenth century 'made the world into a neighborhood, the twentieth century will make it into a brotherhood. The late war and its aftermath have caused men again to ask, Has Christianity failed? In the American Revolution, not Christianity but tyranny failed, in the Civil VVar, not Christianity but slavery failed, in this war, not Christian ideals' but militarism and imperialism failed. Christianity and tyranny existed in the same age-Christianity triumphed, Christianity and slavery prospered in the same period-slavery was doomed, side by side with Christianity war still exists-but it too must pass. In, this last world struggle, education, social brotherhood, international law, and Christianity have been assailed. Compacts and treaties formulated by some of the best brains of the worid were trodden under foot. Are we, therefore, justified in saying that all these agencies of good have failed? Would the man climbing the rugged steeps to the heights above, when he slipped and fell into the crevasse at his feet, blame the staff by which he climbed? If he came forth unscathed, would his falling not be a challenge to him to exercise the right use of his staff? Thus the distress of the present day is a challenge to the proper use of all constructive forces guided by the spirit of the Man of Galilee. Christianity has not failed, but its adherents have failed to apply its principles. The world has three historic scourges: famine, pestilence, and war. Modern commerce overcomes the first scourge-famine, modern science, the second scourge ---pestilenceg shall not Christianity, the Christianity which Christ Himself taught us to incorporate in our lives and actions, overcome the third scourge-war? Our divine Lord spoke clearly and taught, with an emphasis impossible to ignore, the great doctrine of the universal Fatherhood of God and the common Brotherhood of Man. From the first, the religion which He established aimed at transcending all barriers of race, nationality, age, sex, or condition. As all rational beings have a common origin and a common destiny, this religion desired to unite them all in one great family with common duties, common interests, and common purposes. This standard is to be attained only when men will extend the horizon of their ideals to the ends of the world. But how imperfectly the Christian principles are still practiced both in individual life and in international affairs! Most of the peace treaties of the past contained the seeds of hatred and revenge that germinated and grew into other wars as soon as the vanquished nations were able to demand justice. The victors impose their selfish terms upon the conquered who in turn will soon rally their strengthcfor a new war. A false ethical standard prevails which condemns enmity between brother and brother and excuses it between nations. But God's law of love is absolute and what is unjust between man and man is equally unjust between nation and nation. The world will be safe and secure only when nations adopt Christ's principle of brotherhoodf Sound inter- nationalism depends solely on the New Testament principle that peace depends upon righteousness. ' A World crisis gives birth to a world vision. At the door of the present hour knocks an unprecedented opportunity for international brotherhood. The ends of the earth have been connected by modern inventions. Distance has been annihilated. Socially, commercially, politically, the world has been brought together into one large relationship. What 'a splendid opportunity for international brotherhood founded upon the ideals of unityand love! The principles of Christian democracy and brotherhood are the great fundamentals of lasting peace. The opportunity is world-wide. Progressive America, militaristic Europe, awakening Asia, undeveloped Africa, and all the islands of the sea offer a field for constructive labor. I Christian people everywhere must get a new vision. Before we can act nationally, we must learn to think internationally. VVe must place liumanity above all nations. If we are ever to anchor in the harbor of International Brotherhood we must not be shipwrecked in our course on the rocks and reefs of racial arrogance and national selfishness. Every race and nation must ultimately grant to every other race and nation the same rights and privileges it desires for itselfj nd he in he iis iis he :es it.s rn ge lit to on at Lal ite on on es he ed id rn ls an id id er- is 11' ls 511 at al .Il ie ls IC ct ' G 'cl I6 .Y In place of fighters, we need constructive thinkers, organizers, and leaders who will speed the day of world tranquillity. A great movement was on foot to bring a better understanding among the nations, when like a thunderbolt the great War broke forth. Following this abortive attempt to establish fraternal love among the nations, has come a movement of civic justice and moral conscience. May it become so strong that through effective organization based upon international righteousness and helpfulness it shall unite the Christians in all lands. The day of selfishness individual or national, is past. It is only united, corporate action that can lead all the forces of mankind on toward a reign of Universal Peace in which armaments will be as useless to a nation as defensive Weapons are to a man in a law--abiding community. Vision and organization must be re-inforced by Christian education. Intellectual andmoral enlightenment must conquer hatred and suspicion and lead man to mutual respect and toleration. Christian educators must impress upon the world that there is no question in which the future of humanity is so vitally involved as Christian international peace. Christianity must not languish. The War-god must not remain upon the throne. We cannot- cherish the ideals of The Prince of Peace in our homes if we accept the principles of mailed conquerors in our capitols. VVe cannot sing hymns to the God of love if hatred is in our hearts and our money is lavishly squandered in the manufacture of instruments of murder and destruction. Wfe cannot look adoringly upon Jesus dying upon the cross, while books, magazines and newspapers are filling our minds with pictures of Warships, and battalions of soldiers are drilling for the work of human slaughter. The ,Christian people are recreant to their highest trust if their formative and educational agencies do 'not demand that the attitude of' nation to nation shall be that of a Christian man to his brothers. Christian people everywhere must mold public opinion and public policy. Christianity must rebuild the world by hands that are strong enough to uphold the cause of righteousness Ministers, teachers, government officials, and all leaders must place the emphasis of religion and education Where the Great Leader, the Master Teacher placed it. In its fullness, Christianity has not been tried. In international relations it has been successfully and disastrously ignored. Arms have failed and treaties have been discarded, new armaments will not avail, new treaties will be ineffective. Other arms must be found and other treaties formulated. That nation is best armed which has the friendship of the world won by constructive good-Will. That treaty of friendship holds which eliminates racial and national prejudice and gives each race and nation an opportunity to make an effective contribution toward internatioinil welfare. - That ye love one another even as I have loved youj' is the command that Christ gives to us today as He gave it to His disciples of old. ln our hands as Christians rests the Work of piloting the world from conflicts, armaments, wars, and destruction, to harmony, disarmament, social welfare, and constructive peace. VVlien the teachings and conduct of the Christian men and Women of the world shall be dominated by the spirit of justice, brotherliness, and co-operation, when universal human brotherhood shall become the goal of the nations, when above the banners of all nations shall be unfurled the spotless flag of the cross, the symbol of brotherly love, then, with an unparalleled victory, au higher patriotism will usher in the Golden Age of, 'tPeace on Earth, Good-Will toward Men. . .. , . . . ...-..,,1.. ., --V'-fsnr.---rl.

Goethenia Literary Society OETHENIA Literary Society, in harmony with other organizations, tries to assist the College in preparing young men and young women for an efficient life's career. Having sent out so many seniors into active A life last June, Goethenia had a small membership in the fall of 19225 but the faithful members who came back solicited new members until the membership limit of twenty-four was reached. In selecting new members the Goethenians do not consider the talents of the young people so much as their ambition and their ideals. The question is not, What can you do? but rather What are you willing to do? Young people with high ideals' naturally seek for a fellowship where high ideals are pursued. Thus the Goethenians are a group of young people who naturally gravitated together and naturally belong together. This method of selecting new members, however, has not interfered' with securing good talent. Goethenia in her membership has a variety of the best talents. Great ambition and high ideals have necessarily encouraged development of talent. Young people of this type are indispensable to all college activities. In college and church activities a large proportion of Goenthenians are officiating. When these institutions are to be represented in larger organizations, the same proportion of Goethenians are sent. The Goethenians are especially grateful that they have won the confidence and the good will of the faculty and student body. Their career for which they lay a foundation in college continues in later life. Society is receiving them with open arms. Herein the main purpose of Goethenia is being fulfilled. With such a past history of inspiration and with a membership of a high standard and high ideals, Goethenia is determined to have a golden future.

Garfield Literary Society DUCATION is one of the factors which attempts to make the search for life's motive more intelligent and also more fruitful in results. It selects that which is adapted to the capacities of the individual and Y necessary for the needs of Society. Education is not confined to any one institution. All contribute to the development. of the individual. I Garfield may be classed as an institution at Central WVesleyan. It possesses a dennite organization, has a resolute purpose and satisfies a recognized need. In this society we seek to develop an all-around personality. Thru the actual presentation of our thoughts we try to produce what Bacon calls, a ready manfl This year in the play, Little Women, given by the Garfield-Pliilomathia Societies, an exceptional opportunity was given to some oi' the members in the portrayal of life. But life is more than an expression oi the intellect. We have the physical and the spiritual as well. To illustrate the desire for a well balanced personality among its members, Garfield needs only to point to the active leaders in the college who are Garfield membersg leaders in the social, religious, scholastic, and athletic activities of Central Wesleyan. All as individuals and as a society are striving and daring to write Excelsior on their banner in life.

Philomathia Literary Society X T1 CTIVITY marked the opening of the school year for Philomathia. Eight new members were admitted into the society at the beginning of the year. In October, Philomathia, with the hearty cooperation of Garfield Literary Society, gave the delightful play, Little Wlomenj' by Louisa M. Alcott. This play represented a high water mark in the dramatic efforts of the society. A . The programs of the year have been interesting and well attended. The girls have developed a spirit of comradeship and all hands are at the oars that 'iPhilo may be first in the race for literary fame. The combined efforts of Philomathia and Garfield Literary Societies have brought about a renovation of Philo-Garfield Hall. The hall has been redecorated in a tan and old rose color scheme. New pictures adorn the walls. Dainty curtains' with artistic draperies enhance the beauty of the hall, while from above indirect lights flood all with a soft mellow radiance. The newly decorated hall was reopened with an informal reception to faculty, students, and friends. The activities of the past year indicate that Philo has been rowing, not drifting. nberg lbl' Eight f the rfield ou1sa Jf the gnls 'hilo havv rated ftams direct oened T10 3' 'le . Y .

Central Wesleyan Star Staff -- . HE END of the fourth decade in the existence of the Central Wesleyan ,L .. Star is drawing nigh, and still the. Star aims to serve as one of the means of publicity for Central VVesleyan Collegeg as a news letter from f college halls to the readers far and near, as a chronicler of some of the doings of the erstwhile boys and girls in the worlds work, always provided that such news is forthcoming to the editors, and as a paper that endeavors to stand for the best in the school and its constituency. The editors do not presume to claim that they have succeeded, but they aim to reach the goal before them. The Star has kept its magazine size and form, though most of the college papers in the state have adopted the four to six column newspaper form. The continuing high prices for paper and printing have necessitated a return to the monthly issue. Even at this, editing a college paper is in little danger of being a millionaire-making enterprise. U This years staff consists of A. WV. Ebeling and W. C. Staatz of the faculty, Miss Mildred Havighurst of the Seniors, Miss Ruth Gisler of the Juniors, Miss Alma C. Hollmann of the Sophomores, Herbert Hake of the Freshmen, and Daniel H. Schulze of the Seminar. 1 S' E Nfl -.35 V . - a.a...:.-,,., 1 'uf.3,g,:t, J.,,.1.-1,-..1..,,4,1,.'.L. ,,.41a,5,,.,41,:g,, V ' DOES f V , ons lug2HTNpQtfAiN I W4 -3- L?

Young Women's Christian Association fig: ..g HE first organization with which the prospective girl student of Central Wesleyan becomes acquainted is the Y. W. C. A. Even before she leaves home, she is assured oi a cordial and sympathetic reception by the old 'M 'C students through the letter of Welcome sent to her by the Y. XV. C. A. Throughout the entire year the Y. W. C. A. endeavors to maintain a spirit of Christian fellowship and helpfulness. The four officers and seven committee chairmen have charge ofthe work of the Association. The cooperation of every girl is secured by placing her on one of the seven committees. Any girl may become a member of the Association if she is in sympathy with the aim ofthe Association and the purposes to live as a true follower of Jesus Christ. The triangle of the Y. W. C. A. stands for a threefold development: that of the body, the mind, and the spirit. This calls for recreation as well as for religious and intellectual training. Various socials, which proved a benefit to everyone partici- pating, have been given throughout the year. The Social Service Committee brought cheer and sunshine to the shut-ins. Besides the weekly devotional meetings, there were Weekly dormitory prayer meetings arranged by the Bible Study Committee. The Association sent two delegates to the Association Students'Conference at Estes Park, Colorado. In this Way the members are kept in touch with the Y. W. C. A. work all over the world and progress is made accordingly. dent: ouise Ch.: JH ntral eaves 2 old 2. A. it of 'k oi one with irist. E the and rtici- ught .here lttee. ze at '. VV.

A. endeavors to provide opportunity for the development of the threefold life of the young men in school. Thus not only our intellects are trained and developed, but our soul-life as well finds abundant opportunity for growth. Since an impoverished, distorted, shriveled spiritual life is no doubt the greatest tragedy in the World, the primary purpose of this organization is the development of personality, the refinement and culture of the spirit, and the enrichment of soul-life thru definite- and resolute Christian character building. This purpose is achieved' by various means. The weekly devotional meetings, the Tluirsday evening prayer meetings, and the Bible discussion groups held on Sunday morning in connection with the Sunday School-all contribute toward the attainment of our goal. We dare not overlook and minimize the fine spirit of Christian fellowship and friendship, and the feeling of good will that is fostered among the students thru contact and association as Y. M. C. A. members. It is this spirit and attitude that will mean much in later life and linger with us throughout eternity. . First Row-Fabre, E. Kettclkamp, Friedrich, Karrenbroek, Runge, VVahl.

These teams are composed of young men who by their activities have proved their abilities as leaders in Christian LM' MH Work and whose high ideals and Christian principles are a daily challenge to a bigger and better life. In the choosing of the teams, it is the purpose of the leader to have along with the above mentioned characteristics a combination of musical and speaking abilities and thus bring to the surrounding communities messages of the highest type in song and uplifting talks and sermons. The work this year, tho somewhat limited in the number of trios, has been of the highest type and unusual to the extent that for the iirst time We have gone beyond our old boundary, fthe surrounding eoinmunityj. XVe spent the Thanksgiving vacation in the Ste. Genevieve community during which time we gave seven programs. Vife trust that the future holds even greater possibilities and that we may experience more of the pleasure that only those know who have had the blessed opportunity of serving the people in this capacity.

Student Volunteer Band UR aim, 'The Evangelization of the VVorld in this Generation, is in our estimation the highest goal which an organization could possibly have. This being true, it is evident that here is a chance for the best Christian -P h characters and unflinching earnest workers to manifest themselves. By our weekly meetings an attempt is made to keep up an interest in missionsg by an hour of devotional study and prayer, to keep in touch with our God, the needs of the field, and friends who are now in the foreign fields. Besides these our weekly meetings, specials are arranged for, at which time some outstand- ing Christian leader remains in our midst several days, and private conferences O are arranged for any who may desire a personal interview. Our band is relatively small in number this year, beacuse we have several other organizations which are stressing missions, as the Y. M. C. A., Y. VV. C. A., and the missionary societies of the church. Interest, however, is not waning. Mr. Herbert Pommerenlce, one of our number, during the State Student Volunteer Conference, held at Mexico this year, was elected president of the State organization.

HE Epworth League works hand in hand with the church, the Sunday School, and the Young Mens and Young lVomen's Christian Associations, furthering the spiritual development ol young life. lt is the one organization in which the young men and women, college and ,academy students, town and college young folks have a task in common. The devotional meeting ol the League is held in the basement of the college church hefore the Sunday evening service. Sometimes the meeting is thrown open to an informal discussion of some question of vital interest to allg at others a set program is given. The object of both types is to make the members feel that the success of the League depends upon their cooperation. The Epworth League stresses the work of the devotional, mercy and help, and missionary departments, with social gatherings. lt aims to furnish the students with plans and ideas which they can apply in the local league of the home Cllll1'CllCS.

He came here directly from Missouri Wesleyan Where he was i prominent in athletic circles. He gained a Wide reputation as foot ball W W player, being selected on the, mythical all state eleven. He met with unusual success at Central Wesleyan. With but little experienced material he turned out two successful foot ball teams. His track team Won second place in the state meet last year. This year the Blue basket quintette captured the state championship title. Coach Harmon has tendered his resignation, to be effective in June 1923. This came as a surprise to the followers of sport at C. W. C. Wesleyan is indeed very sorry to lose its popular Coach for next year. . l Coach Harmon, Luella Reckmeyor, Dr. W'eiffenbach, Gladys Ross, Edwin Steinman. Athletic Board i. HE Athletic Board is composed of the Coach, John M. Harmong one other member ol the faculty, Dr, VVeiFfenhachg and three student members, Luella Reckmeyer, Gladys Ross, and Edwin Steinman. These members have served very efficiently in .determining the numher of games to he played, in controlling the fund for athletics, and awarding the letters. lVithout the engineering work of this hoard, we could have no collegiate athletics.

Football OOTBALL entered into the third year of its history at Central Wesleyan Q this year. No intercollegiate games were played the first year. The following year J. M. Harmon, a former Missouri Wesleyan star athlete, CT T came to Wesleyan as coach. He faced one of the most difficult tasks a coach could face. He had to develop a team out of nothing, not a single candidate even having high school experience. During the second year one game was won, five were lost, and one tied. The season this year was successful, not in respect to the number of games won, but in that football was firmly established as a college sport at C. W. C. Eight letter men reported to Coach Harmon at the beginning of the season. The Cewescos defeated Marvin College at Fredericktown in their first game by a score of 19-6. In the next game Missouri Military Academy got the breaks and was able to defeat Wesleyan, although outplayed in scrimmage. Maryville, usually a weak team, was greatly strengthened by the addition of a number of high school stars. They defeated the Cewescos 35-0 in a game at Maryville. Culver'Stockton of Canton and Wesleyan fought to a scoreless tie at Warrenton in the next game. Coach Harmon's warriors showed great improvement in this game with the team which held the leading Kirksville team to a tie score. Central, Springfield, and Principia proved to he stumbling blocks for VVesleyan. Though the Cewescos fought hard in every' game, they were not able to place one on the winning side ef the column. A powerful and heavy line was WVesleyan's chief source of strength. From tackle to tackle, the average weight was more than 185 pounds. No team was able to make substantial gains through the line, all gains being the result of open play. And the Wesleyan backs always found holes when they made line plunges. my xii f 9 :QT ri W I1 SU FOOTBALL LETTER LIEN Football Letter Men Capt. Buschniann, 175, tackle. Bill was one of the most aggressive men on the team. Time and time again, he broke thru the opponents' line to throw them for losses, and many times he beat the ends, going down on punts. The backfield man always found a hole on his side of the line when plunging thru. Bill'i graduates in June, and his loss will be keenly felt. 1 Steinman, 170, guard. The fighting Texan was a very valuable man to the team. I-le learned the game in the wilds of Texas and learned it well. He holds the distinction of being the only man to make a touchdown from a kick-off. Steinman is a Senior and will not be back next year. Schniepp, 170, halfback. An experienced player, was one of the best line' plungers in the conference. He was always good for that extra yard or two when needed for a first down or a touchdown. He was also a valuable defensive man. Schniepp will continue his course here next year. ' Lindemeyer, 170, end. Linde was one of the brightest stars on the team. His sterling defensive and offensive work was applauded thruout the state. He was given honorable mention by the coaches of the M. I. A. A., the only Wesleyan player recognized. The star is a junior and will be back in the harness next year. Bengtson, 155, end and center. t'Texas, being a Senior, played his last football here this year. He was greatly handicapped by injuries, and yet his playing at end and center was of the best quality. He was one of the best passers on the team. Niehuss, 150, quarterback. Orian proved to be a valuable man as field general. He could kick, pass, carry the ball, and tackle with equal ability. This is the second time he earned his letter in football. He will be back on the job next year. Lowell, 190, guard. Tubby was one of the brightest stars on the team during the first part of the season. Injuries kept him from the gridiron after the Central game. This was his second year on the team. He is a Junior, and next year, as a Senior, he should be at his best. - FOOTBALL LETTER MEN 1 1 N 5 A ' sm 1 l E if l fm, 1 l . V .if ff Football Letter Men Weiffenbaeh, 195, tackle and guard. Cheese was the tallest man on the squad, and also one of its best linemen. Though a Senior, this was his first year on the squad . He was a very hard worker, and will be missed next year. Reinhardt, 145, end. Reinhardt, a former Kansas High School player, made the varsity in his first year. Toward the last part of the season he showed his true ability. With this year's experience, he should become one of the best men on next year's team. S V - Liese, 175, center. Dale, an experienced man, played at end last year until ,he was injured. Coach Harmon, being in need of a center, converted the versatile star into a center. There he performed all season . His accurate passing was a great help to the backfield. Liese is in the Senior class this year, and will not be in school next year. 4 Moore, 195, guard. Though greatly handicapped by a lack of experience, the giant farmer gained a berth on the team. Because of his size, the opposing backs found it very difficult to gain through his position. Clyde will be in school next year to fight for Wesleyan. ' East, 195, tackle. The giant freshman, without any previous experience, won a regular berth on the team. He was one of the most aggressive men on the squad, and also one of the most dependable men. He is at present undecided whether or not he will be in school next year, but should he return, he probably would be one of the best linemen in the conference. McGee, 150, halfback. Tho a novice on the gridiron, the scrappy halfback soon developed into a valuable man. He was always fighting, and in the game every minute. He excelled in skirting the ends and in tackling. Babe will be in school next Year. . . Duewel, 175, fullback. This is Martinis first year on the squad, but he played like a veteran. He starred on the defensive, and was an excellent-line plunger. He will be back in school next year, and should develop into one of the best fullbacks in the conference. . x I il w!! I l l Z 3 a -, El i Track Q.-5 I. RACK, a comparatively unimportant sport several years ago, is now begin- ning to take its proper place at Wesleyan. The new cinder quarter-mile track, inferior to none in the state, has given a great impetus to the C spring pastime. For several years Central Wesleyan had been gaining high places in the state meets with two and three man teams. The plans are now to enter a large number of men, with specialization in one or two events. The first meet last year was with Kirksville Normal School. The Cewescos were returned victors by a top-heavy score. Last year it was the privilege of the school to have the state track meet held in Warrenton. It was the first meet to be held on the new oval. Wesleyan came in second to the strong Springfield team. In this meet several records were broken and a new one established. This new record was made by Ed. Steinman who threw the javelin 165 feet, a remarkable throw. - A ' The failure of Wipperrnann and Martin, last year's chief point winners, to return this year is ha great blow to NVesleyan'sc hopes. Coach Harmon will have, however, a 'number of experienced'menandalso a number of high school stars, out of which to 'develop a strong tearng. The'Cewescos can be counted upon to make a creditable showing in its dual meets and in the state meet. Tennis FQ. ENNIS is one of the most popular sports at Central Wesleyan. The addition of new courts several years ago was a boon to the international E241 game. More students participate in this sport than in any other sport at C. W. C., and it is quite probable that the number of courts will have to be increased. Each year Wesleyan is represented at the state intercollegiate tennis tourna- ment. In order to decide the local entrant in this meet, a local tournament is held. Last year Milton Weiffenbach, a Junior, defeated VV alter Strehlman, a Senior, in the single finals. The two finalists paired together in the doubles, and romped away with the event. Strehlman was brilliant, but erratic, while Weiffenbach' was steadiness personified. He was also the possessor of a bewildering chop stroke. The state tournament was held in Warrenton this-year. While neither of the local entrants reached the finals, they played excellent tennis. The prospects for tennis are bright this year. Weiffenbach, the champion, will defend his title this year against a strong .field of players. Weiffenbach has captured the cup for two successive years, and will attempt to repeat this year. 1 S 2 ,4 I A l l i J I 4 an- -,Q-. v r l I a v V h .1 ,l ,I i i l 1 ,5 ii in i l E' . fl -l 'J if E. ll E1 l A J fl if it 51 it is 1, f. r l, I l.

Basket Ball gl' -. HIS year's Basketball team probably played more brilliantly and met with better success than any other team in the history of the school. The Cewescos of '23 captured two titles. The first was the championship of the Missouri College Athletic Union, and then the championship of the Missouri Intercollegiate Athletic Association. The team which performed this unusual feat was coached by J. M. Harmon. The season opened with two games at home, in which Culver-Stockton and Westminster were defeated. Then the Cewesces practically cinched the champion- ship by winning four straight games on one trip. Missouri Valley, VVarrensburg, William Jewell, and Missouri Wesleyan fell before the powerful VVesleyan quintette. Full of confidence as the result of the trip, the Cewescos ran rough-shod over Central and Westminster. The 'fvarsityh also defeated Principia of St. Louis and Missouri Military Academy of Mexico. Then Missouri Valley, the weakest member of the cenference, called for two games. Wesleyan had no difficulty in defeating the Vikings. Rolla, the rejuvenated team which defeated Drury, WVarrensburg, and Central, was Wesleyan's next opponent. Was not until the last few moments of the points necessary for victory. Then came game was close and exciting throughout Concordia, the strongest team in St. Louis 7 7 Here the Cewescos met their equal. It game that the Blue and XVhite made the Kirksville, also victors over Rolla. The but Vifesleyan proved a little stronger. defeated C. XV. C. in a post-season game. The season closed with a victory over Principia. y 1 Qi 4 ith 'he of the his nd Jn- Pg, pte. .fer ,nd Jer Hg nfl It he 'he fer. Ile. First Row-H. Adolph, Ross.

Each year a little bit better and stronger than the last. Twenty-five girls reported at the tryout and from these Coach Harmon selected ten who represented our College as the Girls' Basket Ball Squad. 'T'i' A new feature this year was that academy girls were permitted to try out for the Squad. Three academy girls were selected-Viola Schnarre, guard gtransferred to forwardj, Eleanore Havighurst, forward, and Viola Broekfeld, guard. The girls from last years squad were Alma Hollmann and Eunice Addicks in center, Gladys Marion Ross, guard, and Luella Reekmeyer, forward. The other players were Anna Marie Adolph, guard, Hazel Adolph, forward, and Esther Lucke, center. ALLou Reckmeyer was elected captain. It was a great night for the squad when they opened the season by defeating Central here. The game was hard fought, and until the last whistle blew, the victory was not secure. ' During the following week the squad received a decided blow when Hazel left school. But within a week Coach had developed a very efhcient forward out of one of the guards, Vi Schnarre. A week after the first game the Squad met the champions of the High School Tournament, the Bellflower girls. The girls from Bellflower played a hard game, and it took real work on the part of the Squad to make that game the second victory of the season. b Ha1'din canceled both of the games which had been scheduled with them, much to our disappointment. This cut the girls' schedule down to three games as it was impossible to get any more in spite of all Coach's efforts. In early March came the closing game of the season at Central. lVhile the score was not in the Squad's favor-the game was not one to be ashamed of.

As he is a Senior, this is Buschrnann's last year on the squad. This was his fourth year as a member of the team. During the past season, Bill played the best game of his career, ranking high among the forwards of the state. In addition to being an excellent shot, he was a valuable floor man. Brandt, forward. 'tBabe is one of the best shots ever developed in Warrenton. For two successive years he has been high point man in the conference. He is also very accurate on free throws, several games being decided by his extra points. Brandt is planning to return to school next year. Weiffenbach, center. The tall and rangy center was without an equal on the defense. His great height enabled him to get the tip off, after which he dropped back on the defensive. Here his reach enabled him to cut off many shots ticketed for the basket. Ae he is a member of the Class of '23, he will not be here next year. Duewel, guard. Altho this was Duewel's first year on the squad, his playing was remarkably consistent. His passing and defensive work featured many games. He was also an accurate shot. With this year's experience, he should be one of the mainstays of next year's team. Schulze, forward. Fritz Schulze, a former Edwardsville CIll.j High School star, played his second year on the team. He is one of the best shots on the squad. Schulze will be a Junior next year, and should gain a regular bertheon the team. Schniepp, guard. Schniepp was a veteran of last year. While he did not play enough to earn a letter, he gained experience which helped him in his playing this year. He was one of the most aggressive men on the team, and several times his long shots brought the crowds to their feet. He is a Sophomore and will be on duty next year. 1 Wessendorf, forward. The scrappy forward, though handicapped by a lack of weight, made the team for the third successive year. If Bill or Babe were forced out of the fray, here was an able and dependable player to fill the gap. He was the fastest man on the team. Wessendorf graduates this year. 4 N ,N X N X T L N ' 'I wx W1 5 F V . Y is N r :H , V5 W 4 L M 1 ,, 1i1 H 51' I 14 Ma W: 4 w 'Vu 1 1 Q ' Nw 11?

Have fifteen years slipped away since we, the members of the glorious class of 1908, were each awarded a diploma by Doctor Addicks on a bright day in June? D0 we still carry with us the treasures we gathered in the halls of Central Wesleyan, and have we gained others with them? Or have we perhaps buried our talents as did the slothful servant? These and kindred questions demand an answer tonight as I sit in the glimmer of the light across the table from my classmate and FRIEND of my college days,-my companion still. The years have brought sunshine and shadow, success and failure. Many bright dreams of college days have faded away into the mists of oblivion. Some of our ideals have been crushed by the hum-drum cares of the daily grind of toil. Yet, there is much cause for gratitude., For, in spite of the lapse of fifteen years, Alma Mater, like the sun, continues to send her shining rays of influence into life, inducing the flowers of whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are of good report, to bloom. Tonight, after making an appraisal of the riches that I possess, bearing the trade mark of C. W. C., I find that I am a Inillionaire. Millionaire in what? In an appreciation of the wonders of nature. Old ocean and mountain peak have I beheld. Niagara, Mammoth Cave, the Natural Bridge of Virginia are mine. But Warren County, with its barren soil and scant resources, gave me Little Charrette where myriads of spring beauties violets pansies and golden lad 7 D 3 y slippers came forth when a young man's fancy lightly turned to thoughts of love. Warren County gave me Big Charrettel' with its gigantic boulders its s arklin , P 8 streams, and its days of romance. Let me not forget Devi1's Boot and Hollman's Cave, the destinations of many geological and amorous outings. Yes, and Lovers' Lane with its leafy aisles of which I wrote in my college days, Say, life seemed one blessed and happy communion, When the shadows long lingered in Lone Lovers' Lane. That ought to be worth S250,000g mark you, not German marks, not Russian rubles. ' Millionaire in what? In true friendship of my classmates and fellow students. Since graduation I found many new friends in the State University and in the University of Hard Knocks, at the Bar and on the Bench, in the Church, and in the field of Politics, b h ' ut t e friends that are nearest and dearest to my heart now are the chums with whom I traveled with slow and measured step down the Wabash tracks or the h pat s that led to Little Charrette, while we discussed our individual aims and hopes. Those friendships and their com ensati Millionaire in what? p ons are worth at least a half million. In the companionship of a college girl of those days. Ah, the co-eds of 1908! here was a t'Jolly Five Club among the inhabitants of the Ladies Dormitory. I was invited to a banquet of this club once upon a time. Four other men were hidden, also,-sort of a iishing expedition UQ, perhaps. I went, was seen, was conquered. The result, one member of that Club prepares banquets for me every day. Nine members of the nineteen of the class of 1908 are married to former students of C. W. C. Ten to iifteen years of married life for each, and no need of lawyers or courts. To have a sympathetic companion, friend, help-mate, better half, bound to you by the mystic cords of Central Wesleyan, is worth a million at least and more. Millionaire in what? In high ideals. The examples set by our beloved' teachers urge us forward to do the right and fight for the truth still. Practically every student then in the college and the academy was a Christian. In the decade and a half that has been rolled away on the scroll of Time, most of them have endeavored to bring the Kingdom of Heaven a little nearer to the earth. When we consider that it littl-e profits a man to gain the whole world and lose his own soul, we realize that the ideals and principles of C. W. C. cannot he measured by the million dollar yard stick. As I look over the roll of my classmates and fellow-students of 1902-1908, yes, over the names from 1864 on, it is evident that the majority of them have accumulated true and lasting fortunes. A few have reached positions of popular acclaim. A few are rich in material things. This is not always success. The average graduate of Central VVesleyan fills an ordinary task,-college professor, high school principal, preacher, lawyer, or doctor with a comfortable practice,- inarries, becomes a respected' husband and father, and lives for his home, church and community without becoming either rich or famous. But in hundreds, yes thousands of communities, his influence for good is felt. Men are lifted up by his leadership. He is a millionaire in Central Wesleyan stock and bonds, and he never ceases to thank the Giver of all good for the fountain of his wealth, his Alma Mater. V PAUL H. DITZEN, '08. at ff' L, J My Best Investment of One Hundred Dollars fat NE hundred dollars was my pay for two extra years above twenty-one helping my father on the farm. You can see I was a valuable farm hand, drawing the large salary of fifty dollars a year. How should I invest my hard earned one hundred dollars? Yes, I had a sweetheart, and I was anxious to make my money bring the best and quickest returns. Under God's guidance I invested my savings in Central Wesleyan College,- an act which I have never regretted. At the age of twenty-three years and with little schooling, I enrolled at Central Wesleyan. My dear brother, Rev. P. ,W. Jacoby, told me that if I would learn the first term that I was the dumbest student in school, I would be on the right track. 1 found that out the second day when some twenty of us big farmer boys were all spelled down by a little thirteen-year-old girl. After twelve months of hard study I passed the examinations to teach. As two of my brothers were ministers, I thought I would become a professor. But God knew better what I was fitted for. After seven months of teaching, He laid me on the sick-bed with typhoid fever which took me near death's door. He seemed to tell me I would make aybetter furniture and piano merchant than a professor. My education was gained through hard work and sacrifice. I supported myself while at school by working after schoolx hours and on Saturdays at ten cents an hour. In the summer I worked in the harvest fields. Looking back these forty-six years, I can only praise God for His wonderful guidance. Five of us brothers and some twenty-five of our children attended Central Wesleyan and received there life's richest blessings. Our grand-children will soon follow. To the good people who read this article I would say: If you ,want to make a good investment for your children, that will pay large dividends, send them to Central Wesleyan. I made many good investments in life but none better than the one hundred dollars invested in my schooling at Central Wesleyan. God bless the good professors who did so much for me and for my dear children. May every Central Wesleyan student be a shining star for our dear college wherever he may be. ' C. J.

Reminiscences of Early College Days My head is white but not bald, so wrote my friend ex-Senator Henry Thane of long ago, in sending me his New Year's greeting. How well do I remember when that head was red and the face freckeled. - We were students of the 'Western Educational Institute in those days. Chubby, fifteen-year-old Henry Vosholl was one of my roommates, and many were the times when our friend Henry Thane, with the red hair and freckled face, visited us. Our room was upstairs in the northeast corner of the old 'LRed Building located in front of the present 'LGymf' Our furniture consisted of two beds, four chairs, four trunks, one table, wash stand, pitcher, mirror, and a large box stove. In these sacred precincts four of us studied, discussed the uaccusative infinitive, the debates in Goethenia Society, the board Old Kadel was giving us, and our girl classmates, Ella, Libby, Emma, Nannie, and Fannie. When on Saturdays an ex-soldier chum dropped in, we told stories of the L'Civil War. Our athletic exercises consisted in cutting cord wood, and evenings sawing wood for the same big box stove in our room. . On Friday nights the debates of Goethenia Society were, at times, of high temperature and exciting affairs. One evening several students brought their girls and when a debater made a red hot attack on tight-lacing and other feminine frailties, he almost emptied the house. Loud were the protests of the beaux the fleeing girls left behind, each ending with Scratch my name out, as they, too, withdrew. This eruption gave birth to a new Literary Society, The Senate. Charlie Hertel, who made the red hot speech, was called up by Papa'l Kuhl, president, and asked to give an account of the offending speech. This he did faithfully and was highly commended for his courage. Methodist preachers of those days did not hesitate to hit hard the feminine fashions and frailties wich tend to injure health and shorten life. But the uproarous applause which took place, as the last hoop- skirt swung out of the door of the old chapel that night, was something long to be remembered. After a few months of rivalry the two societies got together for an impeachment trial. This all happened in the school year 1867-'68. A 'joint committee organized the mock court following the impeachment trial of President Andy Johnson as a model. Christ. Hendricker was chosen to preside as Chief Justice, William Shackelford to represent Johnson, Henry Martin who had been a federal prisoner in Andersonville, Henry Thane, and J. H. Frick to act as prosecutors, and J. XV. Delventhal, Charles Hertel, and Albert Fields to uphold the defense. Rudolph Hirzel, Louis Kessler, Wm. Balcke, and others were witnesses. The prosecution produced their evidence and everything went full tide in favoi of the impeachment. So absorbing was the interest that the sessions continued till midnight. The Faculty interfered and ordered shorter sessions which made the trial last several weeks. VVhen the defense began to introduce their evidence, they met with objections, supported by references from 'LGreenleaf on Evidence, a ponderous volume borrowed from the law library of a Mr. Roberts who had recently committed suicide in VVarrenton. Delventhal said a short time ago, Those rascals didn't give us any show at all, which as the Irishman said, was 1 'fthe intention of the prosecution. The lawyer instinct certainly was manifested during the trial and several of the participants afterwards studied law. But Delventhal is right about the defense having no show, for a large majority of the boys were Republicans and when the senators or jurors gave their verdict, it was guilty on every charge. Both students and teachers worked hard in those days. The chapel bell rang at eight olclock in the morning. Dr. Koch gave out a song, the music teacher, Prof. Sauer, played the tune on a Mason and Hamlin reed organ and then all rose and sang. One of the teachers then read a portion of Scripture and led in prayer, all kneeling. After this the roll was called. Then followed the necessary announce- ments. Chapel over, all went to their classes. There were ten sets of recitations, five before noon and five in the afternoon. Sometimes one or more classes came before chapel or after supper. I remember at one time having a class during the noon hour from 12:30 to 1:00 p. m. besides the ten regular classes. P At the beginning of the semester the Doctor called an extra meeting one evening at which he read some selections from a little book on etiquette and gave instructions on rules of order and behavior in general. When giving an imitation of how some of the boys came down stairs he rushed across and off the platform with the tread of a rhinoceros. He urged use all to buy the little book and by its study learn to be gentlemen and ladies. In those early days the largest downstairs room in the old Red Building served as chapel, recitation room, and society hall on Friday evening. It was used for class meetings, preaching services, and for Sunday School on Sundays and prayer meeting Thursday evenings. On Christmas eve, the two Sunday Schools of town each gave an entertainment. A large cedar tree was gaily decorated and loaded with presents. After the children had recited their pieces, old Santa appeared and went to the Christmas tree and with his assistants distributed the presents. At the close, apples and cookies were distributed to all present. On New Year's eve the old muskets left over from the Civil War, were used by a few students to fire a salute for our special friend, Kadel the cook. Of course there were ladies' men among the students in those days, too, and it was said one of the town boys' stored up a small fortune from fees received for carrying notes. But the real students did little more than take the ladies to a lecture or occasional entertainment. They seemed to think sporting and study- ing don't go well together. I In 1867-'68, Prof. Todhunter organized a class for calisthenic exercises, as We couldn't all chop cord wood or split rails. Our equipment consisted of dumb bells, wands, ring, and bean bags. Our gymnasium was a recitation room used after school hours. We took off our coats and went to it, raising the perspiration and also the dust in the room. There being no baths, a sponge bath in our room was the best we could do. How thankful the students of today should be for their many conveniences! There were no radios or telephones ,and the telegrams were read off of a ribbon of paper containing dots and dashes. There were no oiled streets or concrete sidewalks, so we were obliged to wear boots. Sometimes some of the more lively students would band together for some kind of sport and engage in some boyish tricks. Those of the literary turn of mind .nifested sv. But y of the , it was all rang er, Prof. ose and .yer, all nounce- tations, fs came ing the ng one nd gave iitation latform l by its served sed for prayer nment. er the 'istmas as and :ts left or our and it ed for s, to a study- as We bells, after n and n was many 1 read jtreets 5 klfld mind would get up a bogus progra.m. This consisted of jokes and take-offs' on the foibles and idiosyncrasies of their fellow students, which gave all kinds of amusement to those who could see the point and were not themselves hit. The hits which scored caused more or less offense, but were soon forgotten. At other times bells were mysteriously rung, even when you looked at them and no one was to be seen. An innocent calf in some nearby shed was found to be connected to the bell by a strong thread and did the ringing. Late one night, as I was busy correcting papers, I was startled by the ringing of the college bell. The belfry stood at the northeast corner of the old Green Building. My room was upstairs in the northwest corner of the Bed Building. I went out on the upper front porch to see what it meant. Then all was silent. It was near midnight. I waited until the bell began to ring again. I heard whispers in the front room having a window opening on the porch. The sash was down at the top two or three inches, and I saw a small cord stretching in the direction of the bell tower. I reached up, caught the cord, and severed it with my teeth. A voice inside loudly whispering, 'LDon't break it, disclosed Hank and Christ as the secret ringers. I told them to go to bed and stop their foolishness. They promised and I retired. The cord was so valuable that they sneaked down stairs a little later to retrieve it. By this time our pastor, Brother WVilhelmi, arrived from town to find out where the fire was. In the dim light he saw some one with arms extended and heard a sharp snap. He thought a robber had snapped a gun at him and hastily retreated. It was only Hank who had found the end of his cord and with a jerk snapped the thread which tied it to the bell clapper. While there was no hazing, some of the greenies were taken out snipe hunting and left in the dark woods holding a sack. Some of the usmarties met with sad disappointments, by being led into some other kind of fool adventure. One young man, who boasted that a certain young lady was stuck on him, was induced to write her a note inviting her for a walk. Another fellow volunteered to go with him and take her girl friend. Everything was arranged for them, the girls co-operating. The two marched over to the old Orphan Home where the girls roomed and were joined by the ladies in the hall ready for the stroll in the bright moonlight. Sure of his conquest, our boastful swain tried to take his ladys hand, then to lift her veil to see her face, and was repulsed with scorn. Then he noticed the girl his friend walked with, wore boots. Again he insisted on seeing his girl's face and found her to be a fellow student. There was a high board fence in front of where the college building now stands. When they had reached this place, scores of students rose up from behind the fence and began to shout Salute your partners! His imagined romance ended then and there. The days of romance are not over. I notice some of you young people who come to college singly, go away in pairs . In fact, many happy unions have been formed while attending college, and why not? The very cream of the young manhood and womanhood of our country is to be found in our colleges. Friendships formed during college life are apt to be lasting and conducive to mutual success. God help our young people to form friendships which may receive the sanction and blessing of God the Father of the Faithful. JOHN H. FRICK, '70. X 1 -tr u 1 Growth of the Literary Societies PHILOMATHIA Ky N OCTOBER 9, 1877, Cliona Literary Society for college and academy girls l was organized. In 1894 it was reorganized as a college society, and renamed Philomathia, with an appropriate motto for the energetic '-M' ' Co-eds, Rowing, not drifting. The following is a fair sample of the early .Cliona programs: Salutation, declamation, essay, selected reading, duet, letter, answer to letter, declamation, selected reading, valedictory, duet, and criticism. Judging from this lengthy program, we fear our mothers must have overstepped dormitory rules and stayed out until 10:30 p. m., or later. 4 In perusing the old minutes of Cliona, this interesting statement was found: The motion was made and carried that no girl under fifteen years of age shall be admitted to this society. Q The following are some clippings taken from the Central Wesleyan Stars of past years? January, 1888: Cliona Society hopes the faculty will let the light of their countenance shine upon us, but as yet our hopes are in vain. October, 1890: Clio is in rather a helpless condition with but a few members, no hall, and no instrument of its own. December, 1890: Clio is flourishing, for ithas increased from five to nineteen membersf' - In the May, 1891, issue of the Star, we notice an epitaph written to Cliona, and that is the last heard of it. Three years later, in April, 1894, Philomathia Literary Society was organized. XVe read the following news items: October, 1894: Through the kindness of Goethenia, Prilomathia held its meeting in Goethenia Hall. December, 1894: In our own hall at last-plainly furnished, but neat. May, 1897: Philomathia gives a Pi Supper. The Philo girls were duly criticized for spelling pie, pi. Prof. Vosholl was evidently as much on the job then as now. October, 1898: The Philo ladies gave an ice cream social, the proceeds of which will be used for a new piano. November, 1898: A'boX supper -is given. Prof. Frick acts as official auctioneerf' October, 1900: Philo Hall has been much improved with new wall paper, beautiful curtains, and other articles. Miss Meta Rinkel kindly presented Philomathia with a beautiful oil painting of a lion. Attendance at meetings has been so large that we have had to borrow chairs from our neighbor societies. November, 1901: 'LA box supper was given by Philomathia, the proceeds of which will go into the general improvement fund. We shall not cease our carpet cry until we have succeeded in getting a new one for our hall. If only they had chosen any other color but red! . At the present time Philo has become one of the leading literary societies at Central Wesleyan. In the next forty-five years may we row farther than in the past forty-five years. Three cheers for Philo-never drifting, but all oars in constant use! -CORNELIA HELMERS, '25 y girls I, and ergetic tation, lation, zngthy stayed found: lall be ars of ght of , 1890: nd no reased 1, and nized. :ss of : In gives Prof. Philo , new Eficial wall ented s has etiesfl vhich t cry had es at 1 the fs in R GARFIELD , 5 N OCTOBER, 1883, Garfield Literary Society was organized for college and .,,,5' were excluded, since which time the society has been conducted for college men only. Garfield, one of the mart.yr presidents, who was known as the teacher president, was taken as the guiding light of the society. In its early existence, Garfield had no hall of its own. We read in the Central Wesleyan Star of January, 1889: The long promisedlhall has been given us. We now claim the upper chapel as our own, furnished with 280 chairs. We have a good hall, a nice organ, and splendid members. V From time to time, and as the society became more prosperous, new equipment was added. In May, 1892, the society indulged in the expenditure of money for the purchase of a'president's chair, a small writing desk, and two Bibles. The following statement is taken from the Star of November, 1894: We have now: a beautiful hall, fitted up with Brussels carpet, seven dozen new chairs, and the long-looked-for electric lights. In years gone by our hall was the chapel on the second floor, but now we have moved a flight higher, to what was formerly the library. Our motto is 'Excelsiorf We intend not only to go higher, but to do better work. In 1890 the constitution was revised, the officers serving one college term instead of four weeks. The Star for November, 1899, says: We are still living and making a healthy and rapid growth. p The society, like all organizations, had to contend with debt. After much effort the society became free of debt in 1904, and, in addition, the organ was replaced by a new piano. ' The following is a typical program of the early life of the society: Queriesg Orationg Essay, Clarinet Solo, Declamationg Debate, Essay, Violin Duet, Oration. This signifies that lengthy and worthwhile programs were the kind that made Garfield a progressive society. During the last few years, the social life has been emphasized more than formerly. This, together with earnest literary effort, will bring about true progress and will make Garfield the leading literary society at Central Wesleyan. It is 'hoped that in the next decade the same splendid efforts will be putfortli for Garfield as were put forth by the members in the past. WARNER KNIPMEYER, 1, 63 I academy men. Several years later it was reorganized and academy men R , GOETHENIA EHR LICHT indeed is needed if one is to give .an exact 'account' of the origin and early vicissitudes of Goethenia Oratorical Association of which our present society is a lineal descendant. M 1 Searching thru the annals of the past, we find that the germ of the society appeared in 1865, but the earliest meeting of which we have record was held in 1868. In 1871 the society was chartered. Very little is known of the activities of the organization for the next fifteen years . ' competition with Vienna and Paris as a musical center. With the aid of feminine talent from Clio her fame spread far and wide. 4 l . In 1888, we find that Goethenia was running A notice written at this time reads: Messrs, A and B have recently deemed it necessary to withdraw from the societyg but what was lost on the one hand was gained on the other. Evidently the relations between the members were not so congenial then as now. Enthusiasm evidentlly marked the beginning of Goethenia activities in 1889. The society was delighted to find Friday evening that some mysterious but kindly townsman friend had placed a beautiful bouquet of fiowers upon the Goethenia table. Let this ancient custom be renewed. The walls of the hall were adorned with two exquisite works of art by Mr. E. W. Mueller and Mr. J. Gisler, depicting the Spirit of Poetry, and the Muses respectively. In 1890 the constitution was revised, all the relics of, barbarism were removed, and the loopholes closed. Indecorus conduct was in those days penalized by a fine of five cents. Evidently among the sophisticated youth of our time such a deterrent is unnecessary. On February 1, 1890, this question was debated: Resolved that a congress' of nations would be beneficial. This was decided negatively. Two .weeks later it was decided, also by debate, that compulsory education should be introduced into the United States. Likewise the admittance of South Dakota into the .Union was anticipated, as was also national woman suflrage. On November 6, 1891, according t.o the vice-presidents report, Mr. Wellemeyer's birthday was fittingly celebrated by the association. To aid in the revelry a large dish of cake was furnished. Undoubtedly this was enjoyed by our dear Uncle Charlie in his inimitable manner. In 1893 the anniversary program consisted of anevening devoted to Shakespeare. This shows that the members aimed to present a program 'of a high class. The upright Chase piano which we now have, and which is fast becoming antiquated, was purchased in 1894. to replace the old' organ which had outlived its usefulness. That is to say its wind was getting short. ln 1897 the members of the association were delighted with a negative decision of the question: Resolved that bachelors over thirty-five should marry under penalty of five dollars fine for failure to do so. The satisfaction caused by the negative decision is explained by the fact that at that time the membership consisted of men only. In 1890 the hall was renovated. It was brought to a finish amid general hilarity comparable in degree to that attendantupon the improvement made in Gartield-Philo Hall this year. ' In 1904 W. A. Rodenberg. a former Goethenian, was elected to Congress from Illinois. this giving Goetbenia representation in the national legislative body. Since that time the spirit of American politics has manifestly changed from conservative to progressive in spirit. Goethenia's political influence was at last given a suitable outlet. A few years later the membership of the society included six men whose soles were from six feet to six feet four inches' distant from their pat.es. Surely prosperity was a consequence of such potential magnitude. In the Star for October, 1910, the Secretary stated that Goethenia is like to a grain of mustard seed, which indeed is t.he least of all seeds. but when it is grown, is the greatest among the herbs. At least one of these Herbs has grown and flown, but the memory of his influence remains. eemed d was not so L 1889. iindly thenia lorned licting ioved, a fine errent l that Two ild' be a into eyer's large Uncle oeare.

The young men have been profoundly grateful for this innovation. During this period Goethenia had the privilege and duty of directing' all intercollegiate forensics for the college. The popularity of our hall for other than society programs became so great in the spring of 1914 that the society arranged a conference with Germania Society to determine to what extent outsiders should be allowed to use the hall. Evidently the decision was unfavorable, and doubtless some marauding expeditions were directed against our sanctuary in retaliation, for shortly afterward a committee of two was appointed to examine the locks. Another evidence of the progressive spirit prevailing in the society is a discussion given the same spring on The Future of the Motion Picture Industry. Evidently Goethenia was on the trail of new but permanent values. In May, 1917, a dramatic version of HThe Shepherd of the Hills was given in the Opera House. This event was duly celebrated by giving a banquet in the hall a few weeks later. On May 4, 1917, the society was rechristened, assuming the present name, Goethenia Literary Society. Three years later meetings were suspended for some time on account of the 'flu ban. In the same year the 'Goethenia Echo had its birth. This thriving publication is indispensable to all loyal Goethenians. On April 30 and May 1 the society presented the Master Key with great success. On December 17, 1920, a debate was held, in which Mr. Melvin Meyer opposed, and Mr. Charles Edward Miller upheld, the resolution that Mike- Meyer is a greater nuisance to the college than is Charles Edward Miller. At the present time we have members from Texas, Kansas, Colorado, Nebraska, Iowa, Illinois and Missouri. Looking over the past we feel that our greatest loss has been the disappearance of the citizens of XVarrenton from our audiences. The bonds of fellowship in Goethenia will ever be remembered with joy and affection. May Goethenia live on, rich in enthusiasm. As The Star Shone LMOST forty years have elapsed since Central Wesleyan College first sent out a monthly periodical. The idea of establishing such a medium had been advocated and agitated, but obstacles, especially the language Ink' question, presented themselves and the enterprise seemed doomed to die at each attempt. Success did not come until the latter part of 1883 when H. L. Schank and A. W. Stuhrman, both seniors in college, perfected Plans to launch a new college paper, and in January, 1884, the first issue of the HCollege Courant made its appearance. Six issues were sent out that school year, and the subscrip- tion forthese was thirty-five cents. It was a student enterprise and we quote from the salutatory: Its object is not so much the dissemination of knowledge as to establish a means of communication between the college, its friends and students, both present and former. It comes bearing well wishes to the college, faculty, students, and friends. It comes with a spirit of brotherly love toward all who may be battling against adversity in order to near a noble ideal in life. The succeeding volumes have endeavored to carry on this object. , The first issue contained articles and news items in both English and German. This plan was kept up until the period of the World War when the use of German in the columns of the Central Wesleyan Star ceased. It has not been taken up again, because of the difficuty in getting the matter set up in German, because the limited size of the paper makes it unfeasible, and also because many of the readers can not read German. Thus the paper had its beginning. The next October saw Messrs. Stuhrmann and Joseph Fielder in charge. They were the responsible editors until October, 1885, when it was found best to make a change in the management and in the name of the' paper. Dr. E. F. Stroeter and Prof. Henry Vosholl ,were elected editors and the new name was t'Central Wesleyan College Starf' This placed the paper in charge of members of the faculty, but its policy was to have both faculty and students represented in the material published. ln June, 1887, both editors refused to accept a Third Term, and Dr. J. L. Kessler was elected editor, and he selected O. E. Kriege and W. A. Hollmann, both students, as assistants. Ever since that time, faculty and students have been -on the staff. The name was shortened to The College Star, and in still later times the name i'Central Wesleyan Starn was adopted. The size has also been changed several times until now it is in double column magazine form. Q The story would grow too long were we to chronicle all the changes in the editorial staff and the shiftings in the arrangement of the English and German material. We can only mention a few of the names of the editors and call attention to some of their characteristics. Some have gone to their reward. NVe need only men- tion the name of Dr. Stroeter and to many there will come the picture of the polished, many-sided man who was an enthusiast, a linguist, and a powerful preacher, Dr. Kessler, and we think of one of the best loved' teachers, also an enthusiast who was ever getting new subscribers and also subscription money, Dr. Addicks, calm st sent in had iguage to die H.

Of the departed student assistants, we recall VV. A. Hollmann, cut off as he was ready to serve his Master, Guido Boellner, anminister called away in manhood's prime, Louis Busiek, the efficient teacher, J. H. Kern, the beloved physician, M. H. Kueck, garnered just as he started to labor, and VV. B. Woestemeyer, the long patient suderer on the bed of pain when he fain would have labored in the vineyard. Their work is done. XVQ doubt not that they are now inditing paeans of praise far surpassing any that their pens could have put on paper. Of those still living, we need only mention the name Daddy Voshollj' and many a. student will rejoice that he ever met the man and the teacher, Prof. Frick, who knew the whereabouts, the wherefores and wherebys of more students than any of his colleagues and was their friend, Prof. Binkel, with that twinkle in his eye that could see many things in the students whom he befriended, Prof. Asling, serious and sober when he endeavored to acquaint us with General Caesar, but always an interested friend, Prof. Nuelsen, now a bishop, the scholar from early youth, Dr. Kriege, exact, ever after details, yet deeply interested in the students, Dr. Stueckemann, the master of English, Dr. Weiffenbach, full of pep , Prof. Hohn, the thorough thinker, Coach Lemke, tho not a Central Wesleyanite by training, yet one that made things come her way athleticallyg all were on their jobs. Time and words fail us to characterize the many student editors still living. Many had a facile pen, others were slower in pushing the quill. Their editorship did not hurt them, for they are doing good work in various vocations. The columnscontained such articles as are wont to appear in college papers. Occasionally, bouquets were forthcoming from various sources and they were gladly received, a sort of reward of real value in lieu of a pecuniary reward that comes to the editors of other papers. Sometimes brickbats were hurled at the pen-pushers, and sometimes they came in good play as material to put into the building of the paper that aimed to serve a purpose in the economy of the college. Occasionally special numbers were published. NVe recall the special June issue in 1889 that commemorated the twenty-fifth anniversary of the college in Warrenton and contained much of the early history of the school. In May, 1910, the Seniors of that year furnished material and cuts for an edition that served as The Pulse of the class for that year. At times other classes have had their name grace the title page, and the articles, jokes, and material of the issue were the work of that particular class. Whatever good the Central Wesleyan Star may have accomplished in the foul decades of its existence is due to the earnest work of some of its editors, or of the friends that took a live interest in the college and its periodical. Whatever may have been amiss was due to a lack of judgment or of knowledge. We trust the years to come may see the Central Wesleyan Star become a factor of greater magnitude in the purpose for which it was founded. --DR. A. W. EBELING. l xl Dramatics In C. W. C. Q1 W-1 HE DEVELOPMENT of dramatics in C. W. C. has been a rather remarkable growth, beginning timidly and on a small scale and passing through various stages of progress until we are able to have today plays of almost professional excellence. This sketch, appearing as it does in the reminis- cence department, will not attempt to be a complete history of our dramatics but will merely set down the author's recollections along that line. My first memory of plays in C. W. C. dates back to a time when, as children, we were all set aquiver one day by the announcement that Garfield Society would present in Kessler Hall, Shakespeareis Merchant of Venice. Our teacher, a Shakespeare enthusiast, seizing the opportunity to introduce the great poet, told us the story of' the play and when the day and the hour came we were in our places waiting to be thrilled. It was, indeed, an evening of thrills, though the thrills could hardly be said to have originated from the brilliant costumes of the elaborate stage settings for these were conspicuous by their absence. The characters were all played by men and they appeared in their best Sunday suits. Perhaps you think we experienced a shock of disappointment, not at all! Such trifles could not stifle the enthusiasm of youth, we had imagination. What did it matter that the Venetian Antonio wore an American boiled shirt, or that the American cobbler's tacks took whole chunks out of Shylock's knife-edge? True, the grace of Portia, as she charmingly accepted the ardent Bassanio, was a bit hampered by the angular outlines of her stiif-bosom shirt, her board-stiff cuffs and three inch collar and her tailored broad- cloth suit. lt may even be possible that our imaginations were taxed a trifle in the matter of her beauty, when we looked at the close cropped head, smooth-waxed hair, shaven chin, and heavy set jaw of the youth who read her lines. Yet those were mere details. It was a play and our first sight of Shakespeare. Of course, it must be admitted that there were some harsh critics among the youthful spectators. The discussion next day held some disparaging comments and one wet blanket chap voiced his sentiments with: But gee! if they was goin' to play girls, why didn't they at least dress up? This was met with the all- silencing explanation that Hthey wanted to, but the faculty wouldn't let 'em. Whether this was the case or whether Garield Society chose to imitate certain actors of' Shakespeare's day, we leave to the sages to know. In the course of the next few years, As You Like It, 'LKing L-ear, Julius Caesar and Schiller's t'Wilhe1m Tell were presented with some of the handicaps' but with one difference, namely, the boys who were girls did dress up. ! O yes, the rest dressed up, too, in homemade costumes and these were fearfully and wonderfully made. Effective? Well yes, rather: Kings and princes appeared in green calico, the queen and her train paraded in cambric, dukes and judges were draped in portiers and grandfathers wore beards of white cotton and soap. As for the man-made maidens, they were as graceful as Portia had been. Wigs were too expensive or else forbidden and so their shaven necks and close-cropped hair rkable trough ilmost minis- cs but en, we would ier, IL t, told n our aid to gs for I men .enced siasm f wore whole lingly if her iroad- .n the vaxed those g the nents ' was e all- 'em. lrtain ulius icaps' ' YES, and ad in were . As were hair showed charmingly from beneath crocheted hoods or cambric caps. There were angular elbows protruding from draperies of paper cambricg there were square shoulders and huge feet, the gentle bride was often taller than the virile bride- groom and her bass voice suggested the battleield rather than the hearth-stone, but it was drama, and genius burned on. The next step forward took place when 'freal girls played the parts of female characters, and rented costumes took the place of cambric and calico. To this period belong such plays as Damon and Pythiasj' uGlaube und Heimatj' The Melting Pot, Faust, and many others. One great drawback, however, still remained, namely.: lack of stage equipment. VVho can forget the old cambric curtain, the blue cambric curtain, the short cambric curtain that reached but half way? It had a delightful tendency of coming down occasionally, or catching at important moments. Other stage equipment was just as far from perfection as the curtain, so that the inventive genius of students and director were taxed to the utmost. The effects achieved were usually most gratifying: thrones, summer houses, and village wells appeared on the tiny plat- form, but the next day some small boy, who had sat in the old gallery and peered over the top of the curtain, was sure to spoil the illusion with: Aw, it wasn't nothin' but an old tablet, or That was jest an old wash tub. This matter of con- verting tables into thrones and wash tubs into moss-grown village wells involved such great expenditure of time, energy, and money that everyone began to realize that a stage was one of our immediate needs. Whence was it to come? The Class of 1920 answered the question nobly and substantially in the form of a one thousand dollar gift to be used' for stage equipment when Kessler Hall was being rebuilt. The building was renovated and enlarged and the long-dreamed-of stage became a reality! Now we have a large and beautiful auditorium, an adequate stage, well equipped with scenery, and even an orchestra pit. The gift of the Class of 1920? The product of the last few years of work and plan? Yes, but it began with a dream and this is much older. It was born in the days of the Iirst Plays, it was nourished by the lovers of art and literature through years of struggle with inadequate equipment, and it was finally brought to realization by the heirs of their toil. Thus inspiration, patience, and persistence have developed dramatics in Central Wesleyan. -NORA LOUISE SKIBBE. i 1 I 4 ' , i 3 Reminiscences of College Days Tales of the Comrades of '16 4 W HEN given space for reminiscences, scenes are recalled, visions revived, incidents reviewed, all of which are of interest to the participants, but perhaps dull to others. Yet to write of interests known and common to ' CI us all requires originality foreign to me. Therefore, I chose the easier part, recounting a few events from the unrecorded history of a small group of former students at C. W. C. ' f Sometimes it is thought that the days of a Gospel Team worker are not full of fun as well as of serious work. Give the gentlemen of the defense a hearing. The first meeting of a series was just beginning. The several instruments of the orchestra were being fingered awkwardly by the nervous initiate team members. Bill Meyer was blowing gently through his trombone to warm it. Even he, experienced by many a campaign, seemed to feel the gravity of the situation, for suddenly there was emitted from his horn a melancholy b-leat. We had hardly time to look ashamed and wonderingly at each other before some heroic youngster in the audience called out, Blow 'er again! One Sunday morning we were late at our appointment. To make matters worse, a rear tire blew out with loud report. Eager to learn just how serious this- misfor- tune was one of the fellows who was not a mechanic by birth or education, betook himself to the rear of the car. Seeing the frayed ends of the fabric, he. handed in the following verdict, Fellows, we blew all the asbestos off the muffler! ' In another town one good fatherly host invited four of the team to spend the night in his home if we could all bunk in one room. The quartet gathered around the one bed, wondering just how the rest was to be had. When we dipped for positions, Herbert Kriege drew the outside section. The night grew chilly, and so did he. In the morning he was found on the floor of the living room, with several pots of flowers thrown around where they had been precipitated during his vain search for the sofa. Carl Gutekunst had drawn outpost No. 2. He awoke cold and early, and forgetting that he was not in drowsy Moberly, climbed thru the man-hole to greet the new day, in the hope of encouraging his circulation. His apparel, designed more especially for slumber, made of him a remarkable spectacle. At least so thought all those who saw him. I i Sometimes it was our good fortune to be invited to a chicken dinner. Under these circumstances Bill Meyer and Clarence Aydelott would invariably roll their eyes and softly repeat, Chiggen, chiggen, yo can nevah roost too high fo' me. Once ice cream nearly caused our dissolution. A fair quantity of partly melted ufrozen gold was successfully evading the spoon-thrusts of a halfhearted partaker. When a lunge was made for it, off it went. Hardly had it hit the floor before a small rug was adroitly pushed over it and we saw it no more. Nor did anyone else until the next -housecleaning day. As a sure cure for the ills attending poor train connections, one team at least can attest to the marvelous effect of the laugh of Feodore Kattner. I can almost hear it now-a bit odd, somewhat of a wheeze at first, ending finally in a blast that would shame a beagle hound in hot pursuit, and withal so full of mirth and genuine wholesomeness that anyone forgot his cares when within hearing distance. vived, s, but lon to easier ,up of full of nts of nbers. 111 he, ln, for iardly ngster worse, 1isfor- ietook led in ld the round sd for .nd so everal I vain d and 1-hole parel, 2. c At Jnder their 91 3 ielted taker.

Nearing Wright City, the car crossed the Wabash tracks just in front of the morning Accom- modation. Believing that a Maxwell could outrun any Wabash, and being in a hurry, too, Clarence took us into the running. Though the road took us far afield, we reached Foristell just behind the Com and beat it by a few seconds to Wentz- ville. And the train crew knew it. Unable to contain himself any longer, Bill shrieked at the engineer, You think you've got some little old Accommodation, donit you? To which came the reply-aged in the wood-'You fellows- are on the wrong road, Fulton is west from here. At Hermann across the river, were and perhaps are, wine cellars which purported to be the largest between New York state and California. Across the doorway into the cellar is the inscription, Wer nicht liebt VVein, Weib, und Gesang, der bleibt ein Narr sein Leben lang. Hardly were we in the cellar during our one 'and only visit, when we were offered samples of the contents of the great casks. Upon refusing, our guide asked what sort of fellows we were. When Post tErwin Paustianj told him of our purpose in that vicinity, our host supported himself by means of a barrel while laughing, and said, Well, who let you across the river? kip . - And so the work goes on with increasing vigor. , -A Comrade-at-Arms. Reminiscences of the Class of 1917 Thinking back's a thing that grows on a fellow, I suppose: the older that he gets, I jack, Th' more he keeps a thinkin' back. HE responsibility of representing the Class of '17 in the 1923 Pulse, is a ,f v-ery great one, and I assure the readers of this article that it has not been assumed without serious consideration. However, I appreciate the 'opportunity that came my way, for it has called to mind again the many pleasant and the few unpleasant occurrences that filled the most enjoyable days of youth. j Whatever of interest the,Class of '17 and others may find in this article I desire the credit to be given to Evelyn Stueckemann tnow Mrs. Millerj, Paul Vietli, Carl Asmus, Smilie Schultz, Wesley Miller, Ernest Schuenemann, and Oscar Kettelkamp. P ' In questioning my classmates, concerning a few of the most humorous events of their college careers, I find the following incidents a few of the many given in response to my question: j It was the eve of a sumptuous banquet, held in the dining hall of the Ladies' Dormitory. The College had just acquired a fine new victrola. Prof. Eisenberg was wont to display its splendid tonal qualities to all, and had determined to have the victrola serve as the sole artist for the evening's musical program. A mischief maker or two happened to be near when Uncle Johnnie was assisting a student carry the victrola from Kessler Hall to the dining hall. The Professor left the ef- Q QE 1' ,JS '1 I 1 .1 , 1 1 1 I I 1 i it .15 1 71V 111 EVE. mi.

During his brief absence a student whom many of you would know, saw a splendid chance to get rid of the crank, and proceeded to do so. When the Professor returned, his indignation was' so thoroughly aroused that the next few moments Kessler Hall brought forth other sounds than musical refrains. The victrola was silenced for several weeks. Who got the crank? and Will the crank ever return? were popular questions on the campus for many days. But one fine spring day the prodigal crank returned as mysteriously as it had disappeared, and Uncle Johnnie was again able to smile. A few years ago, before the boys were privileged to attend public games of girls basket ball, a very exciting and humorous incident happened. About ten minutes before a certin game was to be called, behold, a long column of boys came marching from the College building to the Gym. Consternation seized the feminine doorkeepers who fled to the dressing room to join the players. The boys entered. They had not been inside long when two professors arrived on the scene, one. announcing that there would be no game, the other writing down the names of the intruders with lightning speed, while from the dressing room doors peered the anxious, though amused faces of the Co-eds. There was no game that day, but the boys blazed the trail for future generations, and upheld the principle that to remain static is suicide, but to progress and be a dynamic force is life. One evening during the usual quiet in Eisenmayer Hall, Room 24 was not so quiet. The two Kettels COscar and Andyj, with two or three invited guests, we1'e devouring some fresh home made sausages. The scent drew a hungry mob without. In order to disperse the mob, the feasters used a syringe to convey water through a crack in the door. Not a few shots took effect. Suddenly, Bill Meyer, one of the monitors on 'Lsecondj' appeared and ordered a halt. In response, Bill received a shot in the face. This brought forth some uncomplimentary remarks from Bill in which his feelings were expressed? in his characteristic way. Later he was admitted and his feelings were soothed by his devouring heaps of the sausages. One classmate, in enumerating the greatest events of his career, has placed the banquets and the Junior Ex. at the head of the list. How true. it is! In after life, what alumnus has not been reminded of these delightful occasions of his college career? It is then that a bigger and deeper appreciation goes out to our fellow classmates and above all to our Alma Mater. In recalling That Printer of Udells,'i many -of us can hear Uncle Bobbie's, L Taiht. the question of whether the other fellow's mean or not, but am'I living square? 'The Lord will provide, but we've got to do the hustlin,. 'K 'Taint Christianity that makes folks mean, they're mean in spite of it. a Another classmate is unable to point to any one event as the greatest while attending college. He sees again the beautiful colors of the autumn woods as the Campaign Quartet travels over Warren County. He sees again Schune putting sugar in his bouillon. He hears the tramp's Ev'ning pardf, and sees again Young Matt in his mountain home. He wonders if the boys on the Gospel Teams still experience the joys he had in helping to bring words of cheer and songs of praise to some old couple or helpless invalid. Which was his greatest event in college? He doesn't know, but he adds that the four years together constituted the most enjoyable years of his life. to the tudent crank, ras so other Who Jn the led as nile. nes of it ten came ainine itered. e, one aes of ieered y, but hat to not so were thout. rough :ne of :eived n Bill z was ges. ad the :I'1ifC, ollege fellow lells,'l other we've mean while ls the itting again 'eams .gs of nt in d the One of the most serious events referred to by my classmates was that of the never-tobe forgotten series of meetings led by Doctor Harmon, then president of McKendree College. After spending a Week or more in prayer and meditation conducted by this godly man, what student could ever forget his kind, fatherly advice or his fervent sermons fraught with simplicity of faith? All of us loved him and admired him, and when he left to return to his college and the duties that awaited him there, the whole student body accompanied him to the train to bid him farewell and wish him Godis speed. One of the contributors to this article is convinced that the social life in the broad sense ranks very high with the intellectual. Knowledge can always be secured when it is needed, but the proper attitudes to others and to life in general, cannot. They are made in the formative period of life, which is pre-eminently the college years. C. W. C. offers favorable opportunity for this social need. The privileges of serving on cabinets and committees, of holding offices in various classes and societies, of assuming the responsibilities of representing the College in debate and oratory, of struggling to ,earn his way, of learning to adjust life to the exaction of the social order,-all these were what this classmate counted among the most precious incidents of his life in wCentral Wesleyan. Another classmate when asked, VVhat part of your college traning have you found to be of most value in life? replied that there were no parts to it. It was all one. On leaving college, he discovered that most of us do not know much about anything, that we have no'skill in doing anything in particular. However, when We get out in life, we find that the problems of life somehow become problems for us. We receive no formulae in college for their solution, but We become conscious of the fact that we possess certain powers, and that our attitude towards life drives us to exercise these powers. This strength was gained not because of any one part, but as a result of our whole united college training. Central Wesleyan teaches her students to see, to have convictions, to dare to think independently, to make right choices, to have a desire to serve. These are of infinitely more value than to teach one to know and how to do. I So far as the writer is able to ascertain, all thelmembers of the Class: of '17 are active in trying to help solve the world problems of today. All of them are living up to the expectations of their classmates and professors. Whatever of service the Class of '17 is rendering to humanity at large, and whatever of worth we are to ourselves, we acknowledge our indebtedness to the influences of Central Wesleyan College. We feel that we can never repay the faculty of our Alma Mater, either in words or in deeds, for their guidance and instruction which olny Christlike men can give. CLARENCE R. AYDELOTT, '17. Reminiscences of the Class of '19 F155 I T was in the fall of the year 1912 that it was my good fortune to enter the I noble halls of learning of Central Wesleyan College. At this time Ralph Grassmueck, Walter Krumsiek, Ferd Friedli, Melvin Beger, Mike Meyeigm A and if space would permit, many others could be justly mentioned-were at the zenith of their college careers. It was with considerable reluctance and With the assurance that not more than two years would have to be spent in school, that I consented to enter this institution of higher learning. l l 5 4 l 1 5 l F I l r ll 1 i T Ii ll is l l 3 l E r F l 5 1 V 2 L 1, l L l is ll li, ll v i l I l l I l 1 l w 1 1 1 l x l l l After tvvo short years had passed, I was persuaded by Prof. E. H. Knehans, then head of the Department of Business, to complete the academy course. From this point it was possible to see the milestone marked A, B. onthe road of the college career, which I decided to reach. This was accomplished after three Winters and two summers of hard work. The readers will doubtless wonder what this has to do with reminiscenses of the Class of '19, There is every reason to believe after looking over the roster of the class, that a majority of its members had similar experiences to mine-at least to the. extent that they finished both their academy and college courses at C. W. C. Members of the Class of '19, let us reflect briefly upon some of the high points of our college career. Let us pause for a moment and look back over some of the serious' moments. When the writer does this, the big thing that comes to mind is those good old chapel hours in which we so often had a chance to ,hear noble men and Women unfold their treasures of life's experiences for the benefit of the students. The writer was not conscious of the good that he received from those short inspirational periods until he got out into the world and began rubbing shoulders with the rest of the people in like circumstances. . Another matter of paramount importance, while We are considering the serious side of our college days, is that the professors of Central Wesleyan College never reached that height of independence wh-en they were not approachable and more than willing to give a student personal attention and advice. This is a matter often overlooked in our universities and larger -educational institutions. Never Was' the life around the campus of C. W. C. without its mirth and laughter. Such characters as Virgil Jacoby, Jake Hohn, W. L. CBillj Meyer, George Austermann, Teddy Williams, Chester Ahmann, together with many other stars of the first magnitude, will never be forgotten. By the way, Chester, did you and George Austermann ever propitiate Father Zimmermann for keeping that old hen in Eisenmayer Hall for a month or more, the one you borrowed from the Orphan Home? The words Eisenmayer Hall bring to my mind an important bit of history. I refer to the home rule, or student government, that was in force, during the years 1916-17-18-19. Strange -to say, by some mysterious force a big refuse barrel would come lumbering down the steps about two o'clock in the morning. There is no doubt but that Ireland could settle the turmoil tha.t exists within its borders today, if some of the chief exponents that' served so successfully on the home rule cabinet during the above mentioned years, could be induced to serve that country in this' capacity. All right, Bert Brandtand J. B. Grotewiel, you are elected. Well, fellows, do you recall how well Miss Ruth guarded her chicken house at night? She did a good job, didn't she, Alex Polster? ' Now since. we are on that side of the campus, the Writer cannot help but think of the wholesome atmosphere that always existed in thee Hash Hall. Those Wonderful stag tables! Those inseparable cases of puppy love! Why, the couples couldn't stay a.way from each other long enough to eat a meal. Do any of you remember that old familiar tune, There is one thing sure, either you pay your board or you get out? Now in regard to the rad-i-a-tors, please turn them off when you leave for the holidays? What you think this is, a sa-loon? Well, there is one thing certain, Father Zimmermann had the right idea. If everyone had lived up to the things that he advocated, we would have been better off. hen this .ege and s of 7 of east -x ..- lnts the ind able the ose ing ous ver .ore 'ten md rge 4 of her are, .

However, there is one fact, every member of the class, so far as I can learn, is making good in the walk of life which he decided to follow. After all, this is the big thing in this old game called Life. Did you ever stop for a moment to reflect about your Alma Mater? When it comes to doing good in the world, I have never seen an institution that has ag higher batting average in this respect. The one big thing that is no doubt responsible for this condition is the faculty and the high ideals that this institution stands for. Every member of the faculty is actuated by the highest moral principles. Furthermore, -each professor carries this cardinal principle into his daily work. May they continue their good work for Central Wesleyan College. Long may she live! V LEROY H. DIEKROEGER, ,19 What the Class of 1920 is Doing FI. HREE years ago the Class of '20 were the Seniors of Central Wesleyan all wondering what the next few years would mean in their lives. Little ini did we then realize the truth ol the old familiar saying: Time brings changesgl' but today when we look back over the past three years we cannot help but realize the full meaning of this statement. Progress is necessary for the advancement of mankind and it is with a feeling of at least some degree of satisfaction that the members of this class are trying to do their part in this great world. . At the present time six members of the class are continuing their education in other institutions such as Yale, Northwestern, University of Nebraska, University of Colorado, and Kirksville School of Osteopathy. Six are teaching in high schools, three have entered the business world, and one is engaged in the art of home making. Perhaps a brief summary of the work of each member will be of interest. Edwin F. Bebermeyer taught school for a year at Haxtun, Colo., but is at present specializing in chemistry in the University of Colorado, Boulder, Colo. Maud E. Brandt attendedkthe Rubicam Business College of St. Louis where she finished a business course and for some time held a responsible position in St. Louis, but at the present writing she is at home. C. Allen Brink, our Class President, is teacher of biology in the Kriksville School of Osteopathy and also a student in osteopathy. During the past summers he was the leader of the HCollegians, one of the successful musical companies on the Redpath-Vawter Chautauqua. Allen is married, his wife being well-known to former students as Click Weber. tHe has the distinction of being the only father in the Class of '2O. Ezra C. Buehler, one of the class orators, taught for a year at Hamline College, St. Paul, Minnesota, and at present is continuing his studies in the Department of Public Speaking at Northwestern University where he will receive his A. M. this year. Ezra is well qualified as a speaker, and we are sure will make a success as a popular lecturer. Esther M. Fricke was the first of the fairer sex of our class to consent to having her name changed, being at present known as Mrs. E. E. Sandford, her husband being a prosperous farmer of Humboldt, Nebraska. Esther taught school for one year in western Nebraska after her graduation. Edgar Froeschle has been a successful teacher in Oklahoma, the last report being that he is teaching in the high school at Vinita, Okla. Edgar married an Oklahoma girl. VValter H. Herrmann was Director of Athletics and Coach for one year at Central VVesleyan, and the following year taught in one of the high schools in western Nebraska. Walter is at present preparing himself for a medical missionary, studying medicine at the University of Nebraska at Omaha. Frank H. Hollmann has been continuing his work as Editor of the American Pigeon Journal, the magazine having at present a circulation of 5300 copies per month. His work takes him to the various large cities attending poultry and pigeon shows and conventions. . S. Elizabeth Hutcherson specialized in art in the University of Chicago and one summer attended the University of' Missouri. She has taught .Art and English in Central Wesleyan since her graduation and has been very' successful. Emma A. Johannaber has become a very successful teacher. At present she is teaching in the high school at Greenbeld, Iowa. According to rumors she will follow in Miss Fricke's footsteps. Meta K. Johannaber has become very efficient as a business woman. She has been with the Banner Publishing Company since her graduation, and is now Associate Editor of the VVarrenton Banner. . Edna L. Messersmith has been preparing herself for the foreign ,mission field. During the past year she taught in the high school at Panora, Iowa. . Arthur H. Polster, more familiarly known as 'tArtl', has become a successful coach and teacher, at present employed in the high school at Las Animas, Colorado. Raymond G. Polster, bettter known as Ray , has continued his athletic career and is coach in the high school at Carterville, Illinois, where he has been teaching science the past two years. L. Clarence Schroeder has been continuing his studies at Boston and Yale, having received the degree of S. T. B. from the Boston Theological' Seminary last year, and this year will be graduated with the degree of B. D. from Yale. We look for Clarence to become one of the leaders in the church. Dorothy M. Zimmermann, after her graduation, taught in Pembina, North Dakota, and the following year in the Moberly High School. She is at present continuing her studies in the School of Oratory in Northwestern University at Evanston. FRANK H. HOLLMANN, '20. Memories of the Class of '21 by Radio HIS is Class '21 broadcasting. The feature of the evening will be a brief discourse-Cplease do not tune offj-concerning an aggregation of individ- uals whose names recently adorned the pages of the professors' record books and whose forms graced Wesleyan halls and campus. It was in the year '17 that we began scholastic activities as verdant freshmen. Being genuine members of the species, we were inwardly conscious of our superior worth, outwardly, we frankly admitted it. ' Time, cramming, and a corps of benevolent instructors enabled us to pass on OI16 port an r at 5 in ary, .can per and and lish e is will has now eld. sful ido. reer ling ale, last ook rrth nent at rief vid- ord Len. rior OI1 to the loftier heights of upper classmen until we finally became seniors. This, to us, represented the pinnacle of human achievement. The sheepskin, duly signed and properly beribboned, was to us a veritable talisman against possible disaster. In the University of Experience, wherein fate requires all of us to matriculate, it gradually became apparent that in solving the personal equation, the individual exponent is a greater power than divers degrees. Life as it is, rather than as we supposed it should be, was squarely confronting us. In this new school we were freshmen again. The fact that one is the possessor of a college training does not relieve one of the necessity of delivering the goods. The value of the college education lies rather in the fact that one is better enabled to make the required delivery. To this end we recognize our indebtedness to our Alma Mater. We nourish a keen appreciation for the truths which, through her faculty, have been revealed to us. We harbor a fond sympathy for her ideals and aspirations. We note with pride her achievements and incessant advancement. We frequently go back in memory to those days at WVesleyan. We see again that fountain head of all knowledge, the symbol of law and order, our school- mates, both brilliant and lucky, thedormitory with its faithful ally, the Hash Hall , yea, even the old bell which musically announces the recitation hour. Perusing the pages of our golden memory of VVesleyan will ever be a favorite diversion. Some pages we find full of festivities-banquets, receptions, concerts-all of which add spice to college life. We turn to those Junior Ex days and find they fill many joyous pages. Such a pleasant task it was, working together as a class to make The Man of the Hour a success. Still vivid are those exciting days of getting the 1921 Pulse to press. WVe sigh to think those happy days are past. ' ' Ah, but we Smile , Cremembering that is our mottoj, as we realize that, having attended Wesleyan, every memory leaf will be full of golden promises, because of ,days well spent,,,We turn the pages with never a blank one until we reach the last page, and through the eye of memory see our beloved Class of '21 assembled at the flagpole for the last time. We cease our reminiscing with a feeling of deep content. 'Time in its flight erases many memories but never will we forget those Wesleyan days. We say with Byron: ' ' A we -- The schoolboy spot, We ne'er forgot, though there we are forgot. Classes come and go and in due time are scattered. to the four winds. Lest Wesleyan forget us, it may not be amiss to broadcast a brief survey of our number.

Reminiscenses of the Class of '22 7 , ITH pleasant memories of college daysvstill lingering in our minds, we, the members of the Class of '22, find ourselves in various places of our country, trying to make practical use of the knowledge we gained during In G our career at C. W. C. , Slowly but with measured certainty, we have come to the full realization that we are no longer students of Wesleyan, but that we are face- to face now with the problems of life. No small tasks are they which confront us, for we who would be successful must sooner or later find out that success is not handed to us in packages, but that it is a treasure that comes to us in small particles as we pay for it with honest labor and sacrifice. Neither, after having thus gained it, is it ours unless we cling to it by the same means through which we obtained it, for it will vanish from us like a shadow unless we guard it closely. As we are thus engaged in our various occupations, and are with resolute courage facing life wit.h its problems, it happens very often that our thoughts wander back to the days spent on the campus of C. VV. C. As those thoughts come to us, there is often a big longing to be able to live those days over again. Not alone would we live them over for the joy that was in them, but we feel that we might make just a little better use of the opportunities which we had and shall never have again. But why take the joy out of life by thinking of things we might have done? Let us see what we have done and what we are doing. One lone member of our class has remained at C. W. C. for another year. As we think of Clara Johannaber among the students, we wonder if she does not miss her classmates of former days. Two others of our class thought it best to continue their education and are pursuing studies in other schools. VVe have no doubt but that Lawrence Havighurst is: still making the professors earn their money by forcing them to work to keep ahead of him. Of course, Albert Tsai is still making good, for with the start he got at Central Wesleyan he could not do otherwise. All the rest of the class are pursuing two great and interesting professions- teaching and preaching. As we see the teachers at their work, we wonder if Edna Bothe can still keep her cheerful smile when her students try her temper, or if Emmons Brandt ever gets excited if the students do not get their lessons. lVe wonder if Al Buschmann, since he is married, isn't glad that he never had much ca no- in bi u ac K2- ah to mi He 192 his cox lat kn ye: cel the We tau oui wh hol eve are C. in Mt. iary v of iigh uce, '21 we, our 'ing phat the sful .hat nest we 'om ute 'hts lhts min.

T if or We ich to say, and if he can make f'stars out of all the basket ball players he is coaching. ,XVe wonder if Anna Frohardt can still be good, or if Alice Gerdeman can make her pupils as smart as she is. We wonder if Jake Lotz ever gets angry at his class and tells them what he thinks of them. We do not doubt that Melna Meyer is a good teacher, but we do not expect ber to stay with the profession many years. Luella Gisler, we suspect, is waiting for a bigger job also, but she cannot be idle so she is teaching the orphans. Now, Dorothy Havighurst will make good at teaching if she does not have too many visions of what's going to be. We wonder if Clara Niemeyer can stand it in Ohio far away from home, or if Lydia Painter can be dignified enough to be a college professor. Of course, Aurelia Pergande is not big enough to handle a class of high school students, but she can win them in other ways. John Hohner is teaching in a Mission School. He certainly has a big as well as important job. We wonder if Werner Schrantz can make his class understand all the big words he uses, or if VValter Strehlman can put his knowledge across as well as he can put the ball over the net. Three of our class are preaching and have big tasks before them. Albert Kattner will surely make his inark in Texas. Henry Roos displayed such oratorical ability in school that we know he is doing good work. The writer is trying not to spoil the reputation of the class, and is working away at his task in the ministry as best he knows how. One of the members of our class, Eugene Hendershott, we are sorry to report was called to his reward on the 15th of March, 1923. He taught in South Dakota until his health no longer permitted, and resigned his position in the latter part of November. We think not only of' classmates in our reminiscences, but many other things come to our minds. Especially do we think of those faithful professors who labored so industriously to make us see and understand some of the things they know. Could these professors but get a birdseye view of the good they are doing year by year to the many students who are coming under their instruction, it certainly would reveal to them that their service to humanity is greater than they realize. Then, We have visions of the good times spent in the social life of Central Wesleyan, which was another valuable asset to our training for life. It surely taught us valuable lessons in the art of living in a spirithof love and harmony with our fellowmen. Never shall we forget those great athletic and literary events, when our fellow-students were struggling with might and main to support the honor and ideals of C. VV. C. But, alas, our musing of what has been, must stop. We must leave the great events of school days and take our place in the great drama of life in which we are taking part. Here, too, we are struggling manfully to uphold the honor of C. W. C., for are we not ber sons and daughters, and does not her greatness consist in the accomplishments of those whom she has trained for life? So let us cheerfully pursue our work Which our Master bids us do, And honor shall not only be for us, A But for Central VVesleyan, too. ERXVIN H.
