Four years later he was called by the alumni of the college to the position of the alumni professorship of mathematics. In 1881 he became vice-president of the college. He held this position continuously until 1908 when he was elected president. By his resignation June 16 last, Cornell lost a man who, in the forty-one years that he was connect- ed with the institution was one of the guiding factors in its development. He saw Cornell College grow from a small college in Iowa to one of the foremost colleges in the United States. During his six years as president of the institu- tion new courses of study were added, a campaign for an endowment of SF500,000 was successfully com- pleted, and there has been a continuous increase in the efficiency of the college. Surely this is a record of which he may well be proud. It would be difficult to find, indeed there probably cannot he found, in the history of the colleges of the Middle West, an example of greater fidelity to a great trust, greater sacrifices in order to maintain that fidelity, more wisdom and justice in administration, or a more exalted Christian spirit, than was shown by President Harlan in the forty-one years that he was connected with Cornell College. As an alumnus said, 'The position of Doctor Harlan in our hearts is impregnable'. 9 1 6' . 71 Ir' o 7,7 cz ' P 22 2' 17 I' ,.....,, . V I 9:3 7, 1 N ,- X, EVELYN CARRIE RILEY, A. B., A.

The upper classmen nudged one another and smiled up their Sleeves, But we showed them a thing or two, and he who laughs last doesn't laugh least . Our first step to success was the tug of war. The Sophomores came back from the historic Ink's Pond mere sops of water-soaked clothes-and with decidedly more respect for the Freshies . Then came our banquet. ln this the Juniors stand alone. We are the only class in school to have had our class banquet in our Freshman year. This was held at the Hotel Montrose in Cedar Rapids. The jealousy of the upper classmen was so great that they threatened violence and several of our class officers did leave town for fear that the said upper classmen would carry out their threats. They even had the nerve to follow us to Cedar Rapids and attempted to take some of our girls. ln this, however, they were unsuccessful for thc girls could not be shaken from their loyalty to the class of 1916. It was at this time that we received our introduction to the Majestic when the faculty chaperon called up WHAT WE DID TO THE CLASS OF 1915 1 fl - 61 1 123 R 0 QQ Q 1' P U r p Z G A FT ER Tll li TSANQU WI' the box office a11d asked whether the show was good e11ough for the class of 1916 to see. It was, we went, and have been going once in a while ever since. The only thing to mar the pleasure of the evening was the sight which many of the class met when they entered their ow11 little rooms. The rooms had been stacked and those who did the job carelessly forgot to leave their cards but some- times words don't speak as loudly as actions . ln our Sophomore year we did not have the pleasure of pulling the class of 1917 throu h the water of lnk's Pond for the tug of war was abandoned that g year. Instead, however, we had a 'Clove feast with them which partook of the nature of a feminine football game played between thc halves of the Freshman- Cedar Ra aids Hiffli frame.

OUR LOVE FEAST VVI'l'll 'Fl-IIC CLASS OF 1917 Singleton, Miss Fairbanks, and Miss MacLeod all did consistent work and deserve honorable mention. ln this our Junior year we have seen come to Cornell, a Freshman class mag- nificent in numbers and brawn. They upheld our honor and pulled the class of 1917 through Ink's Pond. On March 18 the second social affair of the class took place in the gymnasium. T-his was the first of the parties which we hope to enjoy before June, 1916. Athletically the Junior class stands high. Of the twenty-six C men, eleven are Juniors. In our Freshman year we held the basketball championship, in our Sophomore year the football championship, and this year our girls hold the basketball cup. We are proud of our class, we are proud of what they have done, and here 's to Cornell which can claim the class of 1916!

FINGER As was once said of Alexander Hamilton that he touched the dead corpse of public credit and it sprang to its feet , so it might be said of Sherman W. Finger that he kicked the box in which the remains of Cornell 's athletics were about to be laid away, and said remains sat up and took notice . To Sherm -or Fing -Cornell owes her high athletic standing. With athletics on its feet, the alumni and students revived their interest and the Alumni Gymnasium is the result. So great was the enthusiasm for this building that the students raised live thousand dollars in eight minutes, one morn- ing in chapel. Since then we have secured a new football field and einder track. Sherm has a warm spot in his heart for every true athlete and every true athlete has a warm spot in his heart for Sherm , the best coach west of Sta gg ' '. Y, 5 S R C Y C' Z P L2 7' 33 L L .- ,.- .

OSCAR ALLANSON Left Tackle For two years Ole has held down left tackle and in both of these years he has been chosen for that position in the Iowa Collegiate All-conference eleven. Consistent work has gained for him the eaptaincy of the 1915 team. Hard work and grim determination are the char- acteristics of l1is style of work. 1 PAUL SHAFER Right Guard Captain Sha.fe', was always on the job. His motto was, The bigger an op- ponent, the harder he falls. His abil- ity to break through the opposing line and muss their offense was shown in the Coe game, and his playing in the Knox game was wonderful. His experience and consistent playing will be missed next fall. 1 i .9 1 In GI!

Ile has the old fight that makes a player valuable to the team. HARRY MILIIOLIN Right Ilalfback Mildew did somelmighty fine work at halthaek. Ilis hest work was proh- ahly in the Knox game. He hits the line hard and consistently and returns punts with speed. His dodging and twisting make him a snappy open iield runner.. ,fi i Wgz 1 G5 'nr R O y or f P Z1 r' 79 2 0 WILLARD HUGHES Qurm-lerbaclu Chula Hughes at quarter kept up tho pepper of the team. When Chub tackled an opponent he was 1'01l10l11llG1'Cll. He always played his sixty minutes of hard, consistent football. WILLIAM BRANDON Right Ilalfback Bill , though not large, gives all he has got. He is one of the hardest work- ers and most consistent trainers in the squad. He played hard through the Coe game with lame shoulders and fought like a demon. ORES ZEHR Center At the pivot position IIappy'l Zehr proved his true worth in the Coe game where he spoiled their spread play hopes. 'Fhere are few centers who would care to clash with Happy if his knee was not injured. Even as it was he had the most of them on his hip . If his knee gets better he will be one of the best centers in the State this coming fall. .9 I Ii ms 1 R 0 if 11 I P 2,1 1 p 1 ROE HOVVARD Center ln the Knox game Roe showed what l1e couldldo at center. He was a steady and sure passer and a strong' defensive man. He will continue to be a valuable man next year. GAYLO RD CAMPBELL Right End Shorty was always on the job when the whistle blew, and he fought to the finish. He was always on the alert and never missed a chance to pick up a fum- ble. The opposing baeks could never form the habit of getting around his end. IVAN SHEELDR Left Ilalfbacl Shy is real football material. He tackles low and hard, and is probably the best offensive player on the squad. His speed and weight make him an excellent line plunger. Last fall injuries kept him olf the job in the Coe and Grinnell games where he was most needed. It luck does not play against him, next year will surely find him on the All-con- ferenee eleven. 1 '7 I I1 67 . 1?

For the first three weeks there were three and four teams out every night. ' The first game of the schedule was that with Burlington High. It came early in the season before the men had become accustomed to working together and the result was a scoreless tie. Soon after this game, Coach Beadle had to give up coaching to take up other work. Estol West f Purty j took his place. The Maquoketa game found the men in better shape. The Maquoketa team was very efficient in forward passing and gained one touchdown in that manner. The Freshmen, however, made large gains with line plunges and end runs. Dur- ing the last two minutes Walker carried the ball forty yards by a series of line plunges and the game closed 25-6 in favor of the Freshmen. The Keewatin Academy game was by far the best game of the season. During the first few minutes of play, stage fright seemed to have seized the Freshmen. The strong Keewatin backfield skirted their ends and tore up their line with monotonous regularity. But after the first seizure had worn off, both teams set- tled down to steady playing. The Freshmen made one near successful march toward the enemy 's goal which was halted in the very shadow of the goal posts. With the ball on the five-yard line and first down, three unsuccessful attempts were made to carry the ball over. It was finally lost on the two-inch line. No other team last year came so close to scoring against that all-star bunch. In their team were two former Carlisle players, one of them a choice for the reserve All- America eleven, and two record track men, former members of the Oak Park High team of Chicago which captured the championship of the United States in 1913. The showing of the Freshmen was really remarkable. At the close of the season twenty-three numerals were awarded. The men re- warded are as follows: Captain Kcelm, Torrance, Etter, Danskin, Devine, Wil- liams, Reiner, Starry, Lawrence West, Otis Lomison, Oscar Lomison, Sanderson, Moyer, George Doble, Hartwell, John Gethmann, Curtis, llamilton, Winkler, Osgood, and Skelton.

Active practice began immediately after the spring vacation and by the first game the 1nen were in 'fair shape, but they were not so adept at playing ball in mud and water as was Grinnell, so Grinnell won the game 11-10. lt was a rather poor beginning, but the next game with Simpson was an easy win for Cornell. At Iowa City a combination of errors, wild pegs, and erratic playing gave the game to the Hawkeyes 4-3. The first game with Coe at Cedar Rapids May 16 started Cornell at her real pace which was broken only by the last two games on the trip, one of which was lost to Grinnell 4-3, and the other to Ames 3-2 after ten innings of the stitfest kind of playing. Because of the bad weather no games were played at Toledo with Leander Clark. The two games were, however, played here at the end of the season. Cornell won the series 6-5 and 11-2. This was Connie's second year as coach of the Cornell team and in these two years he has made many friends in Cornell who want to see him on the side lines again, to hear his Heads up l , and to see Cornell the undisputed champion of the State in baseball. Only two men were lost from the varsity by graduation, and with the old veterans left and with the Freshmen who will be eligible to play next spring, a most successful season for Cornell's 1915 baseball team is assured.

They were certainly on their dignity when the picture man got around to shoot them. You ea11 fairly see the seriousness Hoozingi' out of them, even from Assistant Professors Meade and Meier, but Finger-we give it upg where did he get that expression? , But look at the Seniors, they seem just as happy as if the Faculty had given them graduating presents. Nothing could make them stop smiling. Wliy, even when wee Toady Lovett 's pants were so long that they came to his shoe tops and then got torn and had to he tied together with a shoe string, every one grinned. Some of the features of the game were John Clinton 's stealing, second, third, and home, and Toady Lovett's striking out after Finger had yelled at him, I never did see a married man that could hit! Dutch Byerly made an eiective umpire until someone reminded him that he should remember his grades, and then it was necessary to call on Gravy Kuebler to offieiate. But it was a good game anyway and served to disprove the old adage that youth will be served. Tll IC SENIORS j 1 f 77 It 0 QQ cz Z P u 'r p 1 c ML-ior, Knnpp, Banker, Frei, Monde.

And should he desire to palaver with thee on the merits of the said basketball team or the justice of his chastisement, cite to him the many proofs of their prowess. Tell him of the Mt. Vernon High School, of Cedar Rapids, and of Clinton, all neatly trounced by those Freshmen. And should he still continue in his error, speak to him softly, What about the Varsity-Freshman game? Then leave him to quiet and con- templation. The fact is, basketball material seemed to be as plentiful in this year's Fresh- man class as were the flies in Egypt when Moses lived in the bullrushes. Anyhow Sherm had to make it up into two teams. The one, the Freshman-Varsity, difered from the other, the Freshman Class Team, only in the height of their basketball ambitions. The Freshman-Varsity aspired to bigger game than did the Class Team. About twenty Freshmen were troubled with these high and burning aspira- tions. On them, Sherm, in the role of cruel fate, followed fast and faster . With some, under the fierce heat of almost daily scrimmages, these aspirations seemed to roll oif with the big drops of sweat. Others actually grown fat on Bowman Hall board, suddenly became possessed of an inordinate fondness for rounded profiles, so that the squad finally thinned down to about ten, around which number it remained. Much might be said of the Freshman-Varsity's games, their amazing condition, their great-but on second thought I believe we 'll spare that stuff. Like Caesar they came, they saw, they conquered. Like Caesar also, they were ambitious, not for a crown, however, but for that greater and dearer honor-to beat the Varsity. Strangely enough, and very fortunately, the Varsity about this time felt it in- cumbent upon them to end a glorious and successful season by licking the Freshmen . And they did-in their usual way. To conclude, basketball, long a minor sport at Cornell, has this winter started to come into its own. Witli the old men from this year's Varsity, together with the new men from the Freshman-Varsity, next year 's team should put the State basketball championship where it belongs-at Cornell. Anyhow, here 's hoping! ' HALL Gmesev.

Three teams were taken but only one placed, the half mile squad winning third. ln spite of the fact that it was a beautiful rainy day, very fast time was made i11 some of the events. The Illinois two-mile team tied the United States record for that distance which is 8 :OO flat. The next meet was the home meet April 26. There was a slight breeze blowing straight down the track so it was impossible to make fast time. From the start the Juniors and Seniors fought for first place, the Juniors finally winning with a score of 4715 points. The Seniors took second with 44 and the Freshmen third with 3715. The Sophomores got 29 points and the Academy 6. Smith ran the quarter for the first time in his life and won it. Captain Clinton distinguished himself by winning individual honors for the second consecutive year, taking three firsts and running a lap in the winning half mile relay team. On May 1 nine men Went to Galesburg, Illinois, and came back with 73 points, while Knox kept but 57. After having conceded them enough points to make the meet exceedingly close, Cornell took eleven out of fifteen iirsts. It was in this meet that Thompson made his debut in the two-mile, taking the event in 10 :45fk. Captain Clinton won first in the low hurdles in 27 :3, and third in tl1e pole vault, events in which he had never been entered in previous years. Smith, running the quarter for the second time in his career, tied for second and might have had first had there not been a squabble among the judges as to who really did win the event. In the Iowa Conference meet at Cedar Rapids on May 15 Cornell took second place with 25 1-3 points, the highest place ever taken by a Purple and Wliite 1 fl 'I 1 I S6 7 R O 32 41 f P 3.2 r p 1 1 track team in that meet. John tied for Hrst in the high jump and took second in the broad jump and high hurdles. Tracy got second in the two-mile and Bill third in the mile. Willard Clinton tied for third in the high jump and Manly tied for first in the 220 and took third in the hundred. The short relay team won second a11d the mile team third. At the State meet at Des Moines May 23 we showed our lack of stars, but our point winning team , Tracy Thompson, got fourth in the two-mile and showed that wc weren 't completely off the map. The dual meet with Coe the following week was the last meet of the year. Although the odds were against us and we were hopelessly outelassed we did our best. Coe took every first except two. Captain Clinton won the broad jump and Thompson the two-mile. Tracy's time for the event was 10 :20,' breaking the home record by twenty seconds. We lose by graduation four men whose loss will he keenly felt, Captain John Clinton, who never .failed to hring in points in his three events in which he holds the home records, the broad jump, the high jump, and the high hurdles, Bill NValker in the mile, Lloyd Geer in the quarter, and Willaircl Clinton in the high hurdles and tl1e high jump. At the end of the season Tracy Thompson was elected to captain the 1915 squad. Running the two-mile for the first time in his life in the Knox meet, hc was the only man to place in the State meet at Des Moines, and finally was the winner of one of the firsts in the Coe meet. lt was in this race that he hroke the old home record in the two-mile hy twenty seconds. Eight C's were given. They are as follows: John Clinton, Tracy Thompson, Lloyd Geer, Willarcl Clinton, Ralph Terral, Verald Smith and Merle Manly. 2. --1 U ' , . .1 . ' yi., I.

J.D.C 1 fl I lr H 0 1,7 ci I P Il 2' 79 Y 0 Zifhe llnterzrhnlastir meet The Cornell Interscholastie Meet on May 9, 1914, was the largest and most talked of event in high school athletics in Iowa last spring. Nineteen schools and two hundred and fifty athletes were entered. Besides the athletes, the Seniors in all the high schools within a radius of fifty miles were invited, even though they were not entered in the meet. In the morning came the preliminaries and the Iowa-Cornell baseball game in which Cornell defeated Iowa 4-1. In the after- noon eame the big meet itself. Afterwards a banquet was served to the visiting high school men at which the medals and prizes were awarded. The evening was topped off with the Pep Club play, 'LNan',. The C Club, under whose direc- tion the meet was given, gave to Cornell one of the biggest days of the year. Marshalltown won the meet very easily with thirty points. Cedar Rapids was second with twenty-four points and Epworth Seminary third with fifteen. The other point winners were Waterloo thirteen, Columbus Junction ten, Marion nine, and Iowa City eight. Packer of Marshalltown and Letich of Epworth Sem- inary tied for individual honors with twelve points. There was a tie also for second honors between Curtis of West Waterloo, Vogt of Marshalltown, and Darrow of Columbus J unetion. Three records were broken-the low hurdles, the half-mile run, and the half-mile relay.

Interest among the menwas good, possibly for the reason that a number of the first year men threatened to outrun the veterans. Competition for leading posi- tions was probably stronger than ever before. Wirth eighty men signed up for the work the squad was very large. Following the usual method the group was divided after about three weeks of easy Work. The final run came off a week 'before the Coe-Cornell football game with the following old men placing among the first seven: Thompson, Briggs, Peek, Lah- man, and Haeseler. K. C. Smith and Mellott of the first year men took third and sixth places respectively. Six men were awarded the CC , The length of the course was about four and seven-tenths miles and the time of Thompson, the win- :7 I If 94 R o y 61 I P u 2' p Z ff ner, was twenty-five minutes and twenty-eight seconds, cutting a minute from Tone 's 1912 record. The time of the first four men was faster than the old record. It had been suggested from several sources that there be a Conference run dur- ing the fall. Coach. Finger favored the idea and invited a number of schools which had teams, to participate i11 such a run to be held on the day of the Coe- Cornell football game. A silver cup was oiered to the successful team and also one to the individual winner. Grinnell, Highland Park, Coe, and Ames agreed to send teams. But a few days before the run Coe gracefully withdrew and later Grinnell and Ames did the same. It is assumed that they got wind of the time of the tryouts. The result was a perfect score for the Cornell team with two High- land Park men pushing Haeseler for fifth place. The time, a trifle over twenty- nine minutes, was very slow owing to the fact that a herd of cattle and horses held up the runners. There seems to be no good reason for not having an animal Conference run. Several schools have large squads at work each fall and the men who work faith- fully should have at least one chance a year to compete in an intercollegiate con- test in this branch of sport. May the next attempt to have a meet prove more successful. TRACY E. THOMPSON, Captain. winners nf the GI GI Briggs, Lnhlnnn, Peck, Thompson, Smith.

There is every reason to believe that tennis stock will rise in the 11ext few years. The first tennis event of interest was the state tournament at Coe. The Purple and' 'White men, I-Ienry Van Pelt and Paul Busenbark, succeeded in winning only one match, when Van Pelt defeated Verink of Coe by a good margin. In doubles the team had an off day and lost a hard-fought match to the Coe team, which our men had beaten the previous year. In the dual meet with Coe, Cornell was represented by Paul Busenbark, Robert Smythe, and the Van Pelt brothers. The meet resulted in a tie, each team win- ning three matches. The most spectacular match was the battle between the champions, H. Van Pelt and Roberts. Roberts had defeated Van Pelt the pre- vious year, but Van Pelt allowed the Coe champion only two games on the first set, and none in the second. 7 .'l I li 98 R 2 I I 7 Q i W Y W .WS 'L f M y Sa ff g i f IW 9 QQ !

Early in the fall interest was shown by all classes, with the result that no more closely matched teams ever competed. The semi-final games resulted in the defeat of the Sophomores by the Freshmen, 10-9, and of the Seniors by the Juniors, 18-0. When the final game came, the Juniors, although deprived of one of their best players, captured the silver trophy from the Freshmen, thus adding another vic- tory to those of the class of 1916.

The girls were scheduled to play tournaments, in this way leaving a small group to compete for the championship at the end of the season. When the day came for the final game, the two girls left in the field who had not met defeat were Eleanor Brown and Gertrude Sones. After a closely con- tested game Miss Brown won.

A. Hear The Y. M. C. A. has attempted this year to reach the objective of all Association work, namely, to Guard, to Convert, to Enlist, to Train, to Develop. The year opened witl1 the zest and enthusiasm common to all departments of student activities and proceeded in the regular routine of work up until the Christmas vacation. At that time two strong Gospel Teams were sent out and reports show the work they did to have bee11 among the best ever done hy a team sent from Cornell. No other line of Association work is so encouraging as the Gospel Team work. Here men are enlisted in a distinct Christian service, they are brought face to face with the problem ot the church in the small town and are sometimes tra.ined and developed into strong Christian leaders. . Bible and Mission Study received a decided impetus from Bishop IIenderson's short campaign, three 110W classes being organized as a result ol? his strong work. The benefit to the entire student body from these meetings would be difficult to estimate as many people will look back upon them as the beginning of real life for them. The success oi' these meetings was due to the spirit of fellowship that had been Worked up in a series of fellowship prayer meetings that was begun some time before the Bishop came. Nothing the Association has done can be valued above the opportunity given in these meetings for men to discuss together the problems that confront the one who would live the Christian life. We hope that the fellow- ship idea may be kept up in the future. The great need for the Association now is a building for its headquarters and a secretary who shall devote his time to the interests of the work. This need has long been felt and often expressed, but never has the time been more opportune for laying plans, never has the need bee11 more urgent than at the present. The Association officers are grasping every opportunity of making known the need for a central Y. M. C. A. headquarters and suggest that in the first new building that is erected on the campus provision be made for such a place. For the first time for several years the Students' Lake Geneva Conference comes this year after our Commencement. This will enable a number of H1011 to attend who would otherwise be kept away, and Cornell. ought to have not less than two tents full of the strongest men on the campus to represent her at this power house of Christian energy. The men who were there last year received an impetus for Association work that will long be felt i11 their lives. No man who wishes to do effective work on the campus next year ought to miss the Lake Ge11eva Con- ference this spri11g. J. C. RYAN. I . J la lilf R o 27 fl P ff p f f ,.,,., . . .. , , A :Q K-, , . -Q Wake Sensual We went up to Lake Geneva last year-all four of us-expecting a great time. There was no disappointment except that it was so much better than we expected. l suppose you ought to know that we means Heinie Ryan, Horse-power Jensen, Cackles Terrell, and Tewel Smith. Arriving in a. shower and leaving in a shower, even though our tennis shoes did soak through, still that was all, for our spirits were absolutely waterproof. There never was a frown on the bunch-but once-and that was when all but Terrell marched over to the Aldrich cottage and wrote exams left behind on account of our early departure from the Cornell campus. Everything was fun up there-even getting up at six in the morning and going to morning classes. Jumping into our clothes at the stroke of the rising bell, we demolished a big breakfast. And let me say Ryan was the fastest waiter among the bunch. Needless to say we all scrambled for his table every time. Next we strolled over to the lake shore to Bible study and soon after to morning chapel and following that to study classes. After all this, we were again famishing and at the first stroke of the dinner bell we could be found as near to tl1e door as possible, waiting for the mad rush for our coveted table. For a while we didn't have enough strength to give much competition to some of the other delegations with our Zip Ziss Boom , but at last we combined with Carlton College and from then on we could roar as loud as any. The afternoon was our own. We played ball and tennis, rowed, took a plunge 138 R 0 37 cz f P Z2 7' 79 f in the lake, displayed our fleetness on the track, tossed horseshoes, slept, read, and anything else that suited our royal pleasures. On the trip around the lake, the good ship Majestic took the Qlowa delegation entire, and a noisy trip it was with our songs, our yells, our speeches, and last but not quietest, our sundry pullings of the whisle cord. Taken all in all, the ten days were all too short and words are too unexpressive of the extent of the uproarious times we had there. You 'll have to go up and see for yourself. VEliiXllD SMITH. IE.

W. QI. A. Hear One of the most vital factors in the lives of Cornell girls the past year has been the Y. W. C. A. There are few girls in the institution who have not been in touch with this organization and who have not been helped by it. Due to the well organized and effective methods of' the llembcrship Committee, a larger number of Freshman girls than usual became members. With society rushing and other distractions in the fall, one might be led to think that the work of the Y. W. would be given a place of minor importance, but this was not the case. The annual reception for new girls was held on Professor Van Pelt's lawn. This was an in- formal affair, the time being devoted to getting acquainted. Last spring at the home of Dr. Betts was held the Geneva rally. This was in the form of a luncheon. The invitations were miniature paper tents, and the refreshments and speeches were all suggestive of the outdoor spirit at Geneva. The Cornell girls in attendance at the Geneva Conference were representative of three different nationalities. They were Rachel Peisen, Muriel Betts, Ermina Mills, Clara Callow, and Joy Chai. lt is hoped that there will be more repre- sentatives from Cornell the coming summer, for a new plan is to be tried, that of having the girls who go to Geneva. elected. The work of the Bible and Mission Study committees has been especially ef- fective this year. These two committees work together, the first part of the Year being devoted to Bible study and the second semester to mission study. The classes were organized last spring and began the very iirst Sunday of the fall term. The number enrolled has been large and the good attendance has proved an interest in this line of work. The Sunday afternoon meetings have been a source of help and inspiration, for the subjects have been those in which college girls are especially interested, and the leaders have been selected from the immediate environment, students, mem- bers of the faculty, and women ot the town. About once a month the two Asso- ciations have joined in Vesper services. These have been conducted by men and women from out of town who are interested in college activities, and are ade- quately prepared to be of help to students. ln the special meetings held by Bishop Henderson, unusual interest was manifested. It is not often that such a spiritual awakening takes place as was evident during these meetings. Many decided upon some definite form of Christian service for a life work, and the religious life of the college has been deepened and strengthened.

Vernon at 2:00 A. M., April 1, about a mile from warm beds and with numbers of heavy suitcases and traveling bags, they were finishing one of the best concert tours ever made by a Cornell Glee Club. The trip had started two weeks before with the concert at Vinton. This was Paddy Boles' forgetting day. He left his change at the depot in Cedar Rapids aml then forgot to bring some of Phillips' wearing apparel so that the concert did not start until about 8:30. The next night, however, he had recovered his composure and in his own home town behaved 1'emarkably well. It was here that Daffer gained the nickname of Freeman F1'0ClllIl0ll,,7 or ' ' Hungry for short. The audience at Waterloo on Ma1'ch 20 was very appreciative. an encore being given after nearly every numbe1'. There were many Cornell students in the crowd too, and this helped things materially. The first reception of the trip was given after the conce1't. Frazer came to the sacred concert the next evening in his dress suit and was sent home to change as fast as he could travel. The church was crowded for this conce1't. Someone said he counted over a thou- sand people whieh is a very conservative estimate. On Monday morning before leaving for Oelwein the Club sang in both high schools. The concert and reception at Oelwein on March 22 with a reception afterwards went off in great shape in spite of the fact that Denniston's breakfast cap fell off du1'ing the stunt and created quite a connnotion. Before leaving for West Union the next morning the fellows sang at the high school and later in the day at the high school in West Union. NVest Union stuck i11 the mimls of every one because it was here that Phillips got the first of the many letters he received on the trip. At Postville after singing at the high school in the afternoon, the Club sang in the evening in a fine opera house, one of the best places st1'uck on the trip. Jay Marston was 1'esponsible for making this concert a success. Lime Springs was Newt Davis' home town. Our boy 's folks royally entertained the Club at supper and the crowd at the C0llC01't in the evening was record breaking for the wee opera house. At Austin, Hungry Dai'fer's father was in the audience and he became so flustered that he atc breakfast the next morning in his dress suit. It was here too that Colonel YVaitt fo1'got his rubbers and Fraser his dress shirt. This forgetfulness created a disturbance at Rockford when the boys started to Utog up for the concert, but things we1'e finally straight- ened out. The second sac1'ed concert of the trip at Rockford was a success in every way and continued the good work done the, night before. As soon as the Club arrived in Britt they were hustled to the high school whe1'e they sang and afterwards' were fed by the domestic science class. That evening after the concert the three Cornell teachers in the high school, Miss Jenkins, Miss Power, and Miss Wildasin, entertained the bunch at a chafing dish supper. The next morning before leaving for Algona Sqnint Manly received a telephone call from Paddy Boles who, disguising his voice, asked him to come to the high school and make a speech. Manly trotted right down and made the speech like a good little boy and never caught on to the joke until all the other fellows congratulated him. To commemorate the event he took a picture of the building. The concert at Algona was excellent and put everybody in fine trim for the long jump from Algona to Ma1'shalltown which began at 7:45 A. M. and did not end until 5:15 P. M. The stop at Hampton gave every one a chance to eat dinner with Hungry Daifer in the lead. The concert at Marshalltown was the best one of the t1'ip and was a fitting end to the Glee Club trip of 1915. f .fl I1 146 2 I v w 1 I , 3 7 If 147 I 1 'W H 0 L7 CI I7 P 1 1 r p Y I r 5 -1.-Y Ghz Girlz' 6122 Glluh MISS TRAXLER ....

Phe Jolhest trip a Cornell Orchestra ever took. ' Prof. Miller spoke from a precarious position on Duke Williams' shoulder. The use of the superlative is necessary in every instance to describe the latest jonrneyings of the orchestra. The programs were given with the best spirit always and never failed to be received heartily. The program was more varied this year than usual. Julia Seiler Shaw, violin soloist, un- doubtedly took flrst honors. The audience demanded an encore every night. Especial credit is due her since she played the last four nights with her right shoulder badly inflamed with rhcumatism. l Miss Randall's vocal solos were wonderful in their purity and gayety of tone. Her charming personality always interested the audience. Miss Strawman kept up the already wonderful reputation of the Cornell oratory department in a truly brilliant manner. .lt was her joy to prove nightly how short a time S1500 will last two women in New York City. Miss Gertrude Ahrens supplied for Miss Strawman at Clarence, Belle Plaine, and Springvillel Her beautiful readings combined with her fine stage appearance never failed to be heartily received. Miss Mary Merwin sang two songs in a very pleasing manner. She told us many times that Springtime is the only ring time,,' and that Birds do sing hey-ding-a-ding-ding. Roe Howard played a French horn solo. Since he is the writer of this particular article he cannot find words sullicient to praise it, so he must needs leave the rest to your imagination. All departments of the orchestra were ably supported. The wood winds were nmch better than usual. Mr. Schafer dese1'ves much credit for the able manner in which he substituted a clarinet solo for Harry Platner in the Sunday evening concert without previous warning. The members started to have a good time the ve1'y day they left Mt. Vernon. Pidgeon and Donald Knight wanted to sit up and ,play Somerset all of the first night but their landlord bundled them off to bed in a lmrry. It was at Springville that Dowell started his fussing record. He left a st1'ing of broken hearts in CV0l'y town we visited. Cruel boy! At Monticello J. WV. Doxsee entertained a lively bunch after the concert. The refreshments were particularly enjoyed by the faculty members, so that now we may expect something differ- ent f1'om the old time faculty booze at the next faculty reception. At Maquoketa the orchestra played to a H9200 house, the biggest yet on record. All the credit for this is due to Miss Opal Davis, a former eo11servato1'y student. She had the responsibility of the whole affair, and we pay her the highest compliment possible when we say She carried it like a man. It was here that Williams and Howard we1'e right in their element. They visited kindergarten all afternoon and approved heartily of the teaching methods used. At Ashton the barber was nearly frightened out of a week 's growth when Donald Knight walked in and demanded a shave. lt was here and at Port Byron, the only two dates out of the State, that the best concerts were given. - At Tipton we we1'e at a decided disadvantage because of the small stage. Bob 'Fone said it was good, however, so we left a good tone there. It was with decided regret that we closed the last concert. lVe can look back with pride, however, on an unbroken string of successes and we all agree with Professor Miller that this year 's trip was surely the best ever .

There he learned the Hoosier dialect. After this great inspiration he came to Cornell where he has spent the remainder of his days, much of l1is time within the precincts of the club herein before mentioned.

H Antone, sometimes called Mr. Jlohnson, is one of the steadiest members of the 'Pep Club. He 1'ClllCmbC1'S when F1'ed Kluss first arrived on the Cornell campus. He keeps his youth won- derfully well, however, and if it weren 't for his deeds we could ha1'dly believe that he has been with ns two years. He is enthusiastic over the work and says that he enjoys the second year even better than the first. Lois Bate received a call up last year from President Harlan for cutting Pcp Club meet- ings. Sl1e will forgive this unkind cut, however, for she has been guilty of scattering pepper mnchly. Her loan of a chafing dish to assist in the nourislmient of the club was a most char- itable act. Her mirth is 1l1'0V0l'bl21l, va1'ying from a broad smile to high C. Fred Kluss is our dear departed. lf it hadn't been for a little Ring and the Book deal, he might be with us yet. I don't know how I happened to use that expression. Fred was one of the wise men who did the Senior work in one semester. That accounts for the Book , I suppose. Association-Y. W. perhaps-may explain the rest. Grace Byerly, although only a Junior, has from the first shown more than a half-hearted interest in the Pep Club. That she was elected as one of-Cornell's representatives at the Grinnell game last fall shows her heroism. One of the Senior members remarked that she could leave school with a better grace since Miss Byerly would be in the club next year. One of the Junior men replied that there wasn't any bette1'. Shaf made the motion that marshmallows tasted best when fried. Then hc seconded his own motion and was nnparliamentary enough to call for a third. Paul Shafer will go down in l1isto1'y even though he never went down in football. I might tell some things the Register and Leader said about Shaf but I don it believe in plagiarism. Somerset. Nina Hart is the noted scientist. Her attempts at collecting geological specimens 2L1'O amus- ing to both the initiated and the uninitiated. She received a unanimous appeal to keep time for the club. Her training in a co1'respondence school perhaps accounted for the choice. When the roll was called up yonder in Room 5, Main College, 7:10 P. M., she was always there. Crime: Speech at the Grinnell bonfire. , Pete Bergen, Shellsburg, Iowa, dealer in shekels. Pete says that 's wrong for it isn't his deal and there aren't any to deal anyway. His experience in the conservatory has probably enabled him to make lots of noise with a little rattle. Pete has accuracy, efficiency and the school won't despatch him till next fall so he will speak for himself. Pete is the greatest humorist and the wittiest of his age. Madge Edwards has a unique record. She tried out for the position of cheer leader, received the election, and gracefully refused. The impression'she gave was absolutely startling, however. She increased her popularity at the Pep Club At Home at the Pali, last year by her fondness for st1'ange creatures. Crime: Somerset. Merle Manly was guilty of inciting the school to a bonfire after the Grinnell massacre. Be- cause of this he was condenmed to stand on a pine box near tho raging flames for the space between many speeches. He was 11ot permitted to withdraw until the Sabbath stillness dawned. He will be heard from in the future, that is, if he doesn't talk as fast as he runs. Guilty also of complicity at Somerset. You will note that Olel' Allanson is placed at the end of this dissertation, far away from the co-eds. The il1'lltll must be told. Ole is guilty of graft. He tried to coin a date on the false major pretense of a committee. Moreover he laughed when the President got'fussed. His small size alone saved l1in1 from more serious punishment. He sings with equal fiueney in two languages. Believe me, for it was in Pep Club meetings and not in a Chem I class.

Two years ago the organization was so weak that it even failed to hold its annual oratorical contest, and was obliged to return the fifty dollars cash prize to its donor because it could not find orators enough to hold a contest. This year its oratorical contest promises to be so crowded that preliminaries are considered, and the contest itself is only one among many other activities of the League. The membership, now totalling over one hundred, is nearly as great as the combined list of all the preceding seven years of the organ- ization 's history. During the fall term a study class with an enrollment of thirty and an average attendance of twenty-three completed the study of a text on the liquor question. The faculty have granted a credit course in Applied Sociology for next year as a result of this study class. Another part of the work has been the bringing of speakers from outside the school, such as Br. Marquis of Coe and Harry Cr. McCain of the Methodist Tem- perance Soeiety. Dr. Betts of the Psychology department is also to lecture on the Psychology -of Alcoholism. ' ' Active work outside the school has been done in the movement against Cedar Rapids saloons that was inaugurated in Linn County. The League helped to organize and unify the action of that movement and was a direct cause of the mass meetings held in Mount Vernon, Lisbon, and Marion and in the action at Springville. A quartette from the Men 's Glee Club went to Marion to sing at the mass meeting held there, and another quartette sang at Lisbon. By correspond- ence other towns were urged to join the movement and many Sunday services I V 7 U 159 ,R 0 L7 U I P 11 1' ID Z cf resulted. In fully three-fourths of the towns in the county anti-liquor sermons were preached. A shady-looking character from Cedar Rapids appeared in Mt. Vernon to investigate and was shadowed by a member of the League very faithfully until he left town. The local needs of the organization are attended to by nine standing commit- tees, Forensic, Social, Music, Book, Poster, Lecture Course, Finance, Historical, and Membership. The finances of the League were put on a sound basis by the benefit entertain- ment which the faculty granted. Eugene Laurant, the Redpath magician, was presented in the College Auditorium, and netted considerably over a hundred dollars. V The League has been a benefit to the school not only because of the training it has afforded in journalism and public speaking, and the applied social science it has studied, but in advertising the school as well. The Prohibition issue of the C'0rueZliau published in December was mentioned in Prohibition papers from Seattle to Boston and from California to Georgia. The League scattered it' among the colleges, prohibition and church paper offices of the Middle West. Other journalistic work was published in such papers as the Register and Leader, Waterloo Times, Tribune, and C'ou1'ie1', and the Cedar Rapids papers. At the National Convention in Topeka, Kansas, the four League members and Prof. Keister secured more publicity for Cornell, not only because of the Prohi- bition issue of the Coruelliau, which was mentioned in three convention sessions as a model for other I. P. A. 's, but also because of the four speeches which mem- bers of the delegation gave, a record not excelled by any other school. The public speaking done by the League was not confined to the National Con- vention. A Sunday afternoon service in the Methodist Church, addressed by the delegation just returned from Topeka, launched a campaign of public speaking, which promises not to end until the twelve engagements in nearby towns have been filled. The Prohibition League hopes to secure the State Convention of the I. P. A. for Cornell next year by the enthusiastic delegation at the State Convention at Indianola. It is also rumored that a grand social function is planned as a climax for the successful year. W- W. A- I 160 R j I P 7 7 Va V. f,'ii A A nil? ,h,,,.,:. U .-1. .x V M53 Q--' am .

Nothing that this swarthy Scandinavian has do11e has elicited more gratification in Cornell circles tha11 his emerging in this year's State Oratorieal Contest on the top of the heap. It is a truisln that culture hath her eontliets Zlllfl spectacular victories 110 less than athletics. The supreme cultural eontliet ot the lowa colleges for the year centers in the Oratorieal Contest in which sixteen colleges, including two State institutions, go to the mat and endeavor to get oratorieal hauuuer-locks and men- tal half-nelsons on the other eomhatants. Debating neeessarily can engage col- lege groups ot only two or three at the most, but in oratory we find the chief bond of cooperative interest a11d competition among the different Iowa colleges. To he victory-crowned in sueh a eontest is theret'ore very gratifying, especially so 17 ll- 162 iff! f 1 D ' ' X W if we consider that the prime purpose of a college is to put a keen cutting edge on a student's intellectual tools. Our Warren may be assured that he has repaid Cornell with tangible proof of what Cornell has done for him. Every department may rightly feel that it has furnished its contribution in turning out as a finished product this particular Sc- nior and this particular oration. The social. sciences provided him with the gerrninal idea a11d the l1un1a11 interest appeal. The material sciences contributed their quota in the keen analytical power and the logically li11ked thought that the oration evidenced. The study of his own as well as ol' Foreign language gave him flexibility and colorful charm for his wonderful word pictures as well as his chief inspirational illustration-that of the life of Jean V aljean. Oratory gave the rightful manner of iiaming sincerity to interpret his message. But these various contributions would have been :futile had not the one needful thing been added. That was invincible determination on WilI'PC11,S part to de- velop to the nth power all his natural and acquired gifts.

Vernon that Festival time always brings good weather. No matter how rainy it may be before, for these two days old Jupiter Pluvins always has a kindly spot in his heart and the 1914 Festival was no exception. The good weather combined with the music of the Festival and Fornell made a combination which cannot be excelled. The Festival opened Sunday afternoon, May 31, with the Oratorio Society 's presentation of Haydn 's great oratorio, The f'reation. It seemed as if Mt. Vernon was the gathering place of the surrounding country so great was the crowd. Automobiles were all around t.he chapel and were parked in the streets. On Monday, .lune l, came the concert of linrico Arisone, tenor. ln the evening Pasquale Amato, the celebrated baritone, sang. So well was he appreciated that he was called upon for eneores time after time, but this constant applause brought forth only bows. The concert Friday afternoon was a disappointment in that Miss Dufau who was to have sung, went to Mt. Vernon, Ohio, instead of to Mt. Vernon, Iowa. 'l'he Vhicago Symphony, however. came to the rescue and filled Miss Dufan's place. The final program Tuesday evening was a Wagnerian program in honor of the one hundredth anniversary of the famous composer. 'l'his was the fifteenth Music Festival that Uornell has had aml also the fifteenth appearance here of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, formerly the Theodore 'llhomas Orchestra. 'l'his orchestra, ranked among the first three in the United States, gave its first concert in lowa at the first Festival in 1899, nor has it missed a Festival since that time. lt has become an integral part of every Festival. 1 lv I lS2 D Cllnmnumrement 1 H 14 Z 1 183 R O 17 G I P Ll 7' p 2 Q E A Q x uf Q f s I I i l I i, 5.

W. C. A. I have been at the Geneva Conference for two summers. I am often asked, Why do you go there? and What do you find there? I go expecting to see old friends and new faces, to enjoy recreations and social intercourse with girls from all colleges and from all countries, to meet and talk with some of the noblest men and women in the land, to gain new power and in- spiration from the quiet strength of the leaders, to increase my earnestness and determination in my Christian life, and above all, to seek an opportunity to meet with God and to learn more of His love, to realize God's nearness and to make me more willing to be His follower. The lake, which gives its name to the camp, is a body of still water, reflecting on its surface a blue sky, white clouds, the bold rugged eliifs, or the green leaves of trees around its margin. Snug little cottages are scattered carelessly about the edge of the lake, others higher up on the hillside. The camp is well equipped for the comfort and convenience of those who attend the conference. For sleep- ing there are a few cottages, but almost all of the delegates live in heavy canvas tents with double roofs and heavy plank iioors. Every one enjoys the trip to Yerkes Observatory, which is owned by the Uni- versity of Chicago and is located on the hill just above the camp. The observa- tory contains one of the largest telescopes in the world. There is always a day set apart during the conference so that all the visitors may have an opportunity of hearing a lecture on the telescope or looking around the building. All who care to do so may walk around the outside of the dome on the platform. We shall get there what we go to find. There will be girls of every type and description, noted men and women, national secretaries and visitors. The days are filled with lectures, meetings, Bible and mission study classes, games, contests, rowing and swimming. Every one works and every one plays. Lovers of nature enjoy climbing the steep slopes, the rugged cliffs, and the more difficult walks, as 1 q' 202 R Q, i . 1' P zz ffl l c I well as the gentle strolls. The whole region is simply ideal. The rays of the setting sun or the pale glimmering of the moon strike the lake obliquely and are mirrored in beautiful rainbow colors. The harmonious blending of those prism- like reflections with shadows falling from the forested hills around, made me wonder if the enticing picture painted by nature were anything like the ones Jesus used to muse upon in His quiet contemplation on the shores of Galilee. During those ten days one of the most noticeable characteristics was the unity and the strong sense of sisterhood prevailing among the girls. However different the delegates might have been in temperament, in race and ideals of life, they are at this conference all one and inseparable. Ten days of rubbing shoulders with that company does a great deal for a girl in broadening her outlook and widening her horizon. But more than all else each girl felt at the close of the conference that God was nearer and more real to her, and she longed to carry that inspiring truth to other girls. JOY CHAI. WVHAT MAKES CORNELL FAMOUS I r 203 R 0 y a 1 P U 7' p I Q Zilhrilliug moments in Glnrnell Athletics Despite the courage, the victories, and the defeats of early athletics at Cornell, it remained till the fall of 1902 for the first great moment of tremendous feeling to present itself. On a gray, cold, wet, November afternoon, with a raw southeast wind blowing from over the chapel hill, on the old football field where the tennis courts and girls' hockey grounds now are, a wonderful football eleven met and humbled another wonderful eleven. Thereby they won the State Championship. Cornell and Drake had the best teams in the state that year, but Cornell had the better. The first half of the game saw Cornell with the wind to their backs play- ing valiantlyg and the score was a minus quantity. The second half saw the Purple and White toiling bitterly, persistently, bravely, up the slope, and against the wind. The Drake Bulldogs fought as they have never fought, before or since. Yet they could not check the advancing Cornell spirit, and finally Latimer hurled himself across the mud-smeared, white goal line for the victorious touch- down. The cheer that then went up is still echoing back from the tower and trees. This initial thrill had its first echo a year later when prac-tically the same team held the Chicago Maroons to a 23-0 score on the University field, after the Chicago athletes had beaten most of the other big 'teams by twice that score. The half-sobbing choke of pride comes yet at the thoughts of what Cornell spirit did in the days agone. Chicago again supplied the scene where the Cornell spirit next came to its fullest. It was the Middle Western Tennis Championship of 1905 this time. Cornell was represented by Gravy Hayes who had by hard, consistent playing cleaned up the tennis honors of the state. He met strenuous competition in the big matchesg but always playing coolly, brilliantly, yet desperately, he won. At once Cornell spirit was quoted NM, points higher on the market. lt was not till the spring of 1907 that the thrill coming from the sense of championship again took possession of Cornell hearts. This season saw the high- est collegiate baseball honors abiding at Ash Park. Winning nine games out of eleven and defeating Iowa-our deadliest baseball rival-the Purple and White athletes of the diamond nicely padded the batting average of Cornell spirit. Our present football field witnessed its first great victory in October, 1908. The memory of that glorious Saturday is still fresh. Indeed, it will be a long time before the 6-0 victory over Ames by the most famous team Cornell ever had will be forgotten. For to defeat Ames at that time meant Cornell's ranking side by side with the great teams of the Middle West. This rank was accepted with great enthusiasm, but also with a reverential pride. The same gridiron a year later saw another 6-0 victory that brought a wild, delirious thrill to every Cornellian. That was the victory that broke the Grinnell hoodoo . That was the victory that with surging inspiration placed Cornell securely on the pedestal of athletic fame. The einder path has also furnished the route for a glorious bit of feeling in our 7 .9 I 0 204 R o 3,7 cz I P u 7' p I Q athletics. On the Ash Park oval, in the spring of 1911, Cornell scored 71 points to Coe 's 64-the first time that the spike-shoed men had ever secured a victory over the college champions from the Presbyterian school. The best part of it was, that we won both relays in spite of the Olympic athlete-Wilson. No won- der we carried Elmo and I-Iovey to the gym on our shoulders! p The fall of that same year brought the next happy occasion. This again was a football victory. The scenario was the Iowa Field. The cast was the lowa team -and Pony West. The climax was a certain drop kick, making a 3-0 score. The finale was a riotous, insanely glad crowd of Corncllians at a mammoth bon- fire back of our gym that night. Strange to say, it was another humbling of lowa that again brought the glad thrill. This time the drama was staged on the Donald diamond, two years ago this spring. Of particular enthusiasm was this event, because of the breaking of the Festival game lowa 'hoodoo' . Fifteen consecutive games on fifteen con- secutive May Festival Saturday mornings had always brought disappointment to Coruellians till this particular morning. Then the hoodoo was broken with vengeance. Witli bunched hits in the second and fifth innings and with the as- sistance of errors on the part of the University boys, the Purple and Wliite Won by a score of 6-2, and Iowa bitterly bit the dust. It remained for the basketball floor to give rise to another reecho of the Cornell spirit shown through all the years. The reverberation took place a year ago this last winter, when the Purple and 'White Quintet, coming from behind, tied and then defeated the cyclone, near-champion Coe team in a game replete with sensa- tion, and winding up with the fastest, most exciting finish ever witnessed at Cornell. The jubilee contained all the joy, all the hilarity, all the pride, and all the depth that was exhibited over any other victory ever Won by Cornell. However, last fall witnessed the greatest thrill in all our athletic history, the one most significant and echoing most truly the spirit which won the Drake foot- ball game in 1902. The event was the big bonfire after the Grinnell game. To celebrate and to cheer our athletes after a heart-breaking defeat, and after a dis- astrous se-ason so far as games won was concerned, is indeed the highest type of courage and spirit. It is productive of the biggest and best school pride, and arouses the deepest and most faithful loyalty. It brings the most penetrating thrill to the heart, and remains an example-lasting, tremendous, heroic. LEONARD D. FACKLER. 1 K I 1 U 205 Q O lj nl L P U 1 jl Z rf VVH Prof. C. J. Smith to show that girls know but little about baseball always tells this story: I asked the Journalism class to describe tl1e appearance of Chief Bender walking to the bench after being mercilessly batted all over the field. 0116 girl in describing this scene said, 'The umpire touched him on the shoulder and motioned toward the bench, but he doggedly shook his head. Again the umpire touched him on the shoulder and 'again the big Indian shook his head. For the third time the umpire put his hand on Bender's shoulder. This time the two men talked earnestly together. What they were saying the thousands could not tell. Chief Bender, however, was shaking his head negatively all the time.

It was on this Keehn day that Henry had decided to take Hanna for a Walk-er a Hunt in De Forest unless she Robb-ed him of his Hunter's Craven. As he drove up to her Lodge in hi Smart new Maxwell which reflected all the Hughes of a sunset in the West, he felt on Parr witha King, he had Money, he had no Petty cares. My! but he was a Gaylord. But Hanna had no Hunter 's Craven. She was Wiseland Benton going to the Palisades. It was to Hanna that Henry had given the Keyes of his Hart so of Cours on to the Pal it was. As the Little Maxwell gathered Power it hummed merrily down the Lanes. It passed many Shy horses but they did not Trimble a bit more than if the Thrams had passed them. Arrived at the Pal Henry and Hanna hired a Craft-one of the many Briggs there-and launched out upon the Riley Current to catch Pike. They were no Fishers, however, either in the Stern-er in the prow, for they had forgotten the Cork and the Waitt, and the Bate was soon gone. So they had to Crofutt it to the Stohr under the big Crabtree. Here, for a Price, they purchased a Pidgeon, with a Brandon it, to Frei for their dinner, or Cook as the case might be. ' In the P. M. each indulged in a Knapp. Later in the evening as they drove home past a Grover two, the Starry Knight grew colder so Henry put on a Koht and Hanna a McIntosh. As the sturdy Maxwell stopped before Hanna's bun- Callow, Hanna bid Henry a fond farewell, saying fervently, This day has been Devine. There has been nothing to Marr it. And Henry driving to his own Holm murmured to himself from the bottom of his Hart, Mellot is Devine. I could wish for nothing Moore.

The wish that the editors expressed that it might become the mother for fatherj of a mighty race has been fulfilled for today every college has its annual. The book that you hold in your hands is one of the descendants of that granddaddy of Royal Purples. The Sibylline was put out over thirty-five years ago, but college spirit is still the same. The spirit which in those days prompted the students to tie some of the Juniors to the big rock just east of Main College was the same which later prompted the stuffing of Seniors, and this year prompted someone to put an alarm clock in the day chapel after setting it to alarm at 9:50 A. M. The students of ye oldene days would have enjoyed seeing a janitor, mistaken for a student, getting kicked in the shins by the matron of Bowman Hall during a Hallowe'en prank as much as they did the firing of cannon in the basement of the chapel during chapel time. From generation to generation the spirit of mis- chief and of loyalty to one's Alma Mater is the same. A perplexing question-VVhat would an Annual be if Cornell did not have her chapel? ' We would suggest that one of the Professor Smiths change his name. It is very bothersome to be obliged to write initials every time one writes Professor Smith. Wasn't it too bad that the starvin Beleians refused the a i iles sent to them U 1 I because they were Northern Spies? We hope that you have enjoyed deciphering the lettering of some of the draw- ings in this book. Q Some of the Freshmen Inalllttlill that they are regular German idiotsn. But you have to make allowances. A coincidence-Prof. Ristine is just fourteen days older than Cornell College. To all those who have helped to make this book a success we wish to express our thanks. This means the staff, those who kindly cracked jokes at their own or other people's expense, those who were kodaked . In short, we want to thank the whole school.

About a week later this same 'iFreshie dared to go to Cedar Rapids without a permit but he took extra precaution that no one should see him leave town. As the inter- urban car passed the campus he pulled down the shades. Another Freshman entered breezily into Bauman 's and asked to look at sweat- ers. After looking over about a dozen without seeing one that suited him he finally said with an air of finality, Well, I don't know just now whether I want a class sweater or a C sweater. 1 think I'll wait until the new ones come in and then l'll decide. A A third incident that proves the point is this: After an announcement was made in chapel one Friday morning last fall that there would be a mass meeting in the evening one of the Freshies was noticed to be wearing a peculiar quiz- zical look on his face which did not wear off as the day progressed. Finally he could stand it no longer. This was the question that was bothering him, What is a mass meeting for anyway 'V' Freshman: Do they ever have stags where you can take girls? 230 I Z M Lflwfw Mi M W ZLIZL' fawwffik f Mfr ffwfwfifz 59?
