Department of Art There is never an idle moment in this most interesting class, where Work is play and study a pleasure. To be sure, there are discouraging moments when cloud becomes sky and sky becomes cloud, when a Winding road refuses to Wind, a landscape changes color while the artist labors in vain to match the changing tint. Yes, it is Work, but what joy is found in the Working, and what a gloriously happy feeling When, through your efforts, things assume their proper relations! How one rejoices in some new dis- covery! Perhaps it is only a hue in a cloud, Which, when once noticed, is never to be forgotten, but used to weave another bright thread into the tapestry of life. LORA C. MUNGER It is through Art and through Art only that We can realize our perfection, through Art and Art only that We can shield our- selves from the sordid perils of actual existence. -Wilde.

THE BULL DOG Department of Social Sciences All human activities have origin- ated in response to innate demands of man's nature. These activities express themselves through social forms which have been classified into social institutions. The study of the origin, development, T and ultimate end of these social institu- tions, constitutes one branch of the study of Sociology. The forces which move society, and the laws by which these social forces Work, offer another interesting field of investigation. Aside from social forces which are constructive, there are in society, anti- social forces which produce pathological conditions. The students of Sociology are encouraged to seek solutions for these conditions and to raise ideals toward which men may build. A broad knowledge of society and its history and possible future furnishes a Weapon of offense and defense invaluable to the modern citi- Zeng hence the importance of the study of Social Sciences.

We i feel the need more today than ever be- ,tsl fore, for better placed Voices, better tones, better articulation, better expres- ll sion. It is deplorable that we, as people, have harsh, rasping voices. There is no reason Why We cannot have well l rounded, pleasing, resonate tones.

For this reason, Expression is taught, not by imitation, but by mastery of definite laws in such a Way as to bring out the individuality of each student. The it most essential features are his sincerity and naturalness. l l J M n n ma- m r n m - u -m-. T ' ' Page Thirty 1922
