From here, Betty, one may obtain an excellent view of the flag pole. Over to the left, in the clump of bushes, is the saluting piece. Every day the cannon booms a merry good-morning , and every evening it attacks the fast retreating daylight with a cannonade. It will soon be time for retreat. You thought Culver cadets never retreat? That ' s a different sense of the word, dear. Retreat is the ceremony of lowering the flag. . nd when the last strain of the Star-Spangled Banner has echoed from ivy-covered wall to wall, one feels proud, intensely proud, of having the honor to serve such a country, and such a flag. ] ■

. ... In my mind, Lake Maxinkuckee is one of the most beautiful bodies of water in America. The lake sparkles like a diamond in the sunlight; the green-covered hills that slope to meet it make a most unique setting for a most unusually attract- ive natural gem. But it is in the moonlight that Ma.xinkuckee is radiantly mag- nificent. The silvery rays of the new moon are reflected on the ebony-like surface of the water. Now a fish jumps, and the tranquility of the reflection is disturbed, and tiny ripples attempt to cast off the burden of moonlight. We ' ll come down here tonight, after the casino, Betty, and revel in the beauty of the Maxinkuckee moon.

Culver Mr. H.H. Culver, Jr. Col. a. F. Fleet Mr. H. H. Culver Henry Harrison Culver Born 1840 Died 1897 M ' R. HEXRY HARRISON CULVER, founder of the Culver Military Academy, was born at London, Madison County, Ohio, August 9, 1840. Being born of poor parents, he was forced to make his own way in the world at the age of fifteen. By the time he had reached the age of forty he had acquired a considerable fortune. However, he was more than an acute business man. He was an idealist and a philanthropist, and desirous of helping young men who were under difficulties. In 1881, following a slight stroke of paralysis, he retired from active business. In 1893, after two years of travel in the Southwest, he bought some three hundred acres on Lake Maxinkuckee and made his residence there. He died on September 26, 1897, after devoting practically his whole life to the purpose of leading young men on the road to success.
