Lee THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES '1'4 N THIS and the opposite page may be seen the faces of the men who are bear- ing the responsibilities of Des Moines College. These men have not accepted a place on the board because of any honor attached to it, but because it gives them an opportunity for service. There is not a single man of them who does not support the College with his time, his energy, his money. Four meetings of the board are held each year, and a good majority of the mem- bers are usually present. R. Vaughan, Waterloo, the president of the board, brings to the administration all the business acumen that has made him the foremost implement dealer in Iowa. Nelson Royal, first vice-president, is a lawyer and banker of Des Moines. H. I. Foskett is another one of the tried and true. He is second vice-president and treasurer of the trust funds of the College. His everyday business is banking. How- land Hanson, the successful pastor of the First Baptist Church, Des Moines, is the secre- tary of the board, and J. H. Cochrane, always genial and kind, performs each year the mighty task of paying the bills. Other Des Moines trustees are Geo. C. Carpenter, presi- dent of a la 'ge paper company bearing his name. Frank Miner we name next because he and Carpenter are inseparable. Miner is the president of the Bankers' Accident In- surance Co., of Des Moines. C. E.. Hunn, of Des Moines, ought to come next because he andthe three just mentioned constitute the finance committee of the College. As a lawyer C. E.. Hunn ranks among the first in Iowa. He is also an alumnus of Des Moines College. Then there are Chas. N. Page, president of the Iowa Seed Co.: L. D. Leland, in the wholesale flour business: Geo. F. Reinking and E.. S. Hunn, in the land business: J. W. Graves and E.. M. Griffin, ministers of the gospel. All these are of Des Moines. Then I should have mentioned Col. A. Abernethy, who is also of Des Moines. He is the one trustee who has served on the board a quarter of a century, and today has a large vision for the future of the College. John G. Farmer, of the First Baptist Church, Cedar Rapids, and district passenger agent of the Rock Island Lines: M. A. Ketman, prosperous farmer of Renwick: J. A. Stephenson, who deals in live stock at Mt. Ayr: E.. A. Valiant, pastor of the First Baptist Church, Waterloo: D. C. Shull, prominent lawyer of Sioux City: F. E. E.. St. Clair, physician of Hampton: H. G. Beeman, pastor of the First Bap- tist Church, St. Paul: G. W. Lee, dean of the Women's College, Denver, Colo.: A. C. Hageman, pastor of the First Baptist Church of Glenwood: E.. M. Rex, successful farmer of Minbiurn: W. M. Plimpton, leading physician of Glenwood: A. W. Caul, pastor of the Baptist Church and mayor of Vinton: Guy Barker, doing a big insurance business in Des Moines. All these men, 'from D. C. Shull to Guy Barker, are alumni of Des Moines College. The remaining names are E.. W. Burch, banker of Rockwell City: Judge j. F. Clyde, of Osage: General Milton Remley, prominent lawyer of Iowa City: A. H. Shaffer, banker of New Hampton: B. J. Howery, banker of Waterloo: Aaron Palmer, superintendent of schools, Marshalltown, and R. R. Watkins, capitalist of Waverly, and one of the very best friends of the College. Each one of our trustees takes his place on the board seriously. The sweetest harmony prevails, the spirit of generosity is much in evidence, and large visions for the future of the College are cherished. , john A. Earl. PRES. JOHN A.

' i lat if if Ye Senior Class, Des Moines College. We offer you our sincere congratulations as you leave us. Your commencement is in a glorious time for living. We propose to you as a life mission THE QUEST OF PERFECTION! This is the course of all creation. Seeds reach up towards flowers, eggs throb into songsters, and man moves upward into his divinity. If you would live in the line of eternal progress cultivate THE GRACE OF RETROSPECT! This is essential. A surveyor begins his new day's toil by setting his instrument to catch directions and levels of all his yesterdays. Set your minds to know the trend of history, the spirit of men who shaped the course of civilization, and so understand the finger pointing of the past. You also need THE LURE OF PROSPECT! A vision is necessary. Seers look beyond. They foresee undiscovered values, cities coming down from God out of heaven, and a new creation. Behold the marvels in vision land. There is the pull of perfection upon our minds as there is of sunlight upon seed in soil. Eye hath not yet seen nor ear heard what is still to be revealed to him who keeps the open soul. Add to these THE INTENSIVE INTROSPECTION! We toil midway between the eternities. Eden is behind us. We are not faced towards it. But we are headed in the direction of a perfect life. Let each hour's toil be in exact line with the trend of God in history: of the kind that shall abide in the per- manency of perfectiong and so performed as to give satisfaction in the retrospect a thou- sand years hence. We offer you, finally, our F ARE YE WELL ' Your heritage is glorious. Your present possessions are priceless. Perfection lies in the future. Your equipment is sufficient for any emergency. May life's richest joys be yours! HJ tv Av X if 'Q' J LM' 'E .hr tg Q Anon- I X-H-,.. .

County Surveyor-Candidate for County Treasurer ANNUAL STAFF A , , t a 55258 B RC Q H y D i A Word From The Juniors . HE l9l4 Orange and Black is published in the first year of President Wil- son's administration, which promises to be a record breaker in one thing at least, the overthrow of old established precedents. Catching the spirit of the age in which we live, the class of I9l4 has endeavored to publish an Annual which will be different from any other ever published in Des Moines College. To accomplish this we have been forced to break down a few time-honored precedents of years gone by: but we feel that, for anything we have been compelled to leave out on account of a lack of space, we have introduced features which far surpass these. It has been our aim to make our bcok one that should depict college life as it is found in Des Moines College, and especially as il was during the past year, and we believe that nothing tells the story so completely or so interestingly as do pictures. Gov- erned to a great extent by this conviction we have doubled the number of engravings over those in previous Annuals and through our staff photographer are able to offer you views of Des Moines College which will aid materially in bringing to your mind the various events and scenes in and near Des Moines College. We are also deeply indebted to our president, Dr. John A. Earl, for his enthusiastic support of our undertaking. We have looked through the various Annuals published by this school and others and have obtained many valuable suggestions from them. But we have endeavored, in so far as it was possible, to make these ideas our own. In other words, it has been our aim to make the l9l4 Orange and Black original and unique, and to give to the students, the alumni and the friends of Des Moines College a real souvenir of the Col- lege year. g..:Exs.55Ge.kx - Eouicieexxa x i - 1: 1 fiaffa- ' ,' ff a if T - - ' ' E a 1' S A X N x , - I , - 1 f I r -fl , . ,. 5 ' f ' , ' .. ,-A -4 .

'I WE. walked through the wilderness of this' world, we came upon a certain Nl T place where was a college. And we tamed in that place, as pilgrims llwgyfvxf searching the mysteries of knowledge, that we might improve the intellects g of ourselves and those about us. Our first acquaintance in that place was l T 5 with one called Helpful, who guided us out of the slough of Despond and assisted us through the Wicket Gate of Entrie. There were twenty-two of us in that band. And we were stronglie united in purpose, and in the fear of one known as Hypocracie, who himself was onlie recentlie come into that countrie, and who was much convinced of his own importance. But after he had been ducked in the foun- tain, and our colors had floated unmolested from the pinnacle of the Temple, our fear of Hypocracie took wing, and we laughed him to scorn. Later it was that there came upon our College a band of Worldlie Wisemen. They thought to take the land by storm, but their hap was to meet our band in the way, and we fell into violent conflict, from which Worldlie Wiseman emerged a sadder and a Wiser man. He was buried in mockerie, ridiculed in song, and fairlie overcome at everie turn. His songs and yells, in some mysterious fashion, found their way into our midst and were used by us to his great chagrin. But as we journeyed on we came at last upon young Hopeful, who proved a most inspiring companion in our pilgrimage. Following our example, he continued to keep Worldlie Wiseman in his proper place, and in all things showed himself a worthy mem- ber of our College. Since o'ertaking him we have had a pleasant, though strenuous journie. It has fallen to us to write of all our conHicts, and of the doings of Hypocracie, Worldly Wiseman, Hopeful, Helpful, and others of our knowledge. These writings we shall leave behind as we pass into the Celestial Citie.

The class has done that which was fair in its own sight. They have suffered none to do them wrong. Moreover concerning the Hag rush on Nash Hall: Early one morning they arose, all the mighty class men of valourg men fit to go out for war and battle. The number of them was six or more. Though they were but few, even a few, yet they had courage, and were not dismayed. The class banner was unfurled beneath the stars of heaven. When the news of this was cast abroad the Freshmen assembled themselves together and took counsel as to what should be done. Certain of their number were appointed to withstand the noble Sophomores. The Freshmen found themselves in a great strait. The fear of the enemy was upon them. A conflict ensued, and the battle waged sore against the disdainful Freshmen host. Victory, moreover, was come to the honorable and mighty Sophomores, and all the Freshmen departed every man to his own house. Furthermore, it has come to pass that this band of unspeakable Sophomores has waxed exceedingly great in debate, being able men and women, and these are they whose work has been made known, and the debaters have wrought, and the work has been made perfect. Deal wisely, and hearken ye unto them. Howbeit victory was not to cease. Moreover, it came to pass on the twelfth day of the third month of the year some Juniors joined themselves with a few of the Fresh- men host, the small as well as the great, and in the basement of Nash Hall they made war with the Sophomores, at whose hands they fell. The purpose of this haughty host was to seize the food made ready and gathered together by the Sophomores for a bum. A very great host was delivered into their hands, but they were wroth, and pre- vailed against them. Even though they had a host of fighting, the enemy was lifted up to his destruction. ' Out of the spoils won in the battle, articles such as cuff buttons were to be found around about. Now, the rest of the acts of the Sophomores and their victories according to that which was prophesied in the law of the Seniors, behold: they are stamped on the mem- ories of the Freshmen and junior classes. 1 THE year nineteen twelve, and in the ninth month of the year, it came to 3 v i cl ' E2 Class of 1915 OFFICERS President ...... ........... ....

Dennis they chose as president, Next came Risser, or Ray: For scribe they chose Miss Zellhoefer, To Miss Merrick their dues they pay. III. Now it happened on a moonlight night That all went to Urbandaleg They surely enjoyed their wienies, According to the Freshman tale. IV. One morning in the early fall, Nailed on a pole so high, Fluttering in the early breeze, Their colors they did spy. V. Long may they wave, they cried, We'll keep our colors fair, And after the battle was over They saw their flag still there. VI. Next, in the season of basketball, They met the Sophomores, And beat them till they felt So weary and so sore! VII. They've sharked in all their lessons, With Seniors they dcbateg They'll surely be bright Seniors If they keep up such a rate. VIII. 'Twas time for the Washington Banquet The Freshmen at once set to work To prepare their stunts for that evening, Not one of them ever did shirk. IX. A meeting they held on Oakland, Sixteen thirty-four, you know, And six o'clock mass one morning, Never daunted by Soph. or by snow. X. And after the banquet was over, The snow lasted day after day, The Freshmen wanted a jolly bum, And got it in this way. XI. They all went out for a bob ride, It surely was quite a tight squeeze They stepped on each other's toes And said, Ah, pardon me, please. XII. But they all landed safely at Fosdick's, And enjoyed the best oyster stew! It surely is great to be Freshmen! Don't you wish you were Freshmen too?

M. C., the Preps. At the sound of the bugle there were found to be only eight. of the old troopers prepared tonre- enlist for another year's service. To this small company of faithful soldiers were added thirty fearless and courageous recruits, who formed the largest company in the HD. M. C. We regret to state that the Preps were not so well balanced in members during the first term of school, there being but three girls entered on the Academy roll. But these loyal daughters of D. M. C. made up in spirit and enthusiasm for those who were missing until they were joined by fresh recruits at the opening of the second term. - There was considerable discord shortly after the time of enlistment, in that two or three of our comrades attempted to rank themselves with the troops of Company F famateurs of the upper classmenj. This caused a few skirmishes, which formed the foundation for acquaintance, union, and peace. The Preps were not slow in making their talent evident in many different activities of the College where loyal and staunch support was demanded. The football team drew a number of its men from this aggregation. It was here that the team chose one of its main factors, the solid little center, which action they never had occasion to regret. Three- fourths of the chapel orchestra was composed of Preps, and when it came time for the gospel teams to go forth on their commendable mission the Academy was ready and willing to render its share of assistance. Interest in class spirit has been clearly evidenced by the number of class bums and parties that have taken place from time to time. The boys of the class have realized that the girls are good entertainers. It is with exceeding pleasure and yet with a feeling of great loss that we see our old- est member, Mr. Morrison, depart from our ranks to help increase the numbers of the Freshman class. Long has this loyal son of D. M. C. been an ardent supporter of his class and the Academy has many reasons to believe that much strength will be added to the class of seventeen by his presence. Inasmuch as our station in D. M. C. is the foundation ground of that more abun- dant life, our aims and aspirations tower over all pinnacles. May the word Prep never lose its significance in the history of D. M. C., for with its college atmosphere and environment it fills a long-felt need for those who seek such a place for the acquisition of wisdom.

I HE School of Education is organized for the purpose of training teachers for work in all departments of public and private school education. Througn the work of this department Des Moines College is enabled to extend her influence and service to the general work of education throughout the state. As an organic part of the regular College of'l..iberal Arts it ofliers to stu- dent teachers all of the advantages of the Liberal Arts College-professors, instructors, laboratories, libraries, societies, athletics, and the atmosphere of culture. Teachers ii training for their vocation always form an earnest, industrious, high type of men and women, and always give tone and strength to an educational institution. The work in our School of Education is of a high type, and is continuously being improved in evcry direction to meet the increasing standards set by school officials, and by society. The School of Education offers courses in Primary Training, Public School Draw- ing, Public School Music, County, Slate, and various special certificates. The work is organized under the following departments: I. Elementary Education. II. Secondary Education. Ill. Special Certificates. IV. Junior College Courses. l. The B. Di. Second Grade State Certificate. 2. The B. Di. Primary Training Course. 3. The B. Di. Home Economics Course. 4. The B. Di. Supervisors' Drawing Course 5. The B. Di. Supervisors' Music Course. V. The Senior College Course. Although this is the first year of the organization of these courses, the enrollment in the various departments is something over l00 students. About one-half of these are graduates of accredited high schools, and are doing full college work. o-Emekeem - Eoui:Xeexxg4N f p Ar' DOMESTIC ART , PRIMARY TRAINING , ,lil ', ,atv BEATRICE.

School of Education, a regular six weeks' summer session is conducted, with a special training for teachers in all grades of certificate work. These courses necessarily call for summer classes in Academy and College sub- jects, in which many of the regular College and Academy students enroll for credit work. Last year's session was the Hrst ever conducted by Des Moines College, and was very successful, having an enrollment of two hundred students. The plan of work for this coming summer is already well developed and the prospects are bright for a large enrollment. A noticeable feature in the summer session is the large percentage of women in attendance. Examinations for teachers' certificates are held at the College the last week of June and the last week of July. The beautiful Col- lege campus, with its green trees, is an attractive scene through June and July. Nearly all of the regular members of the College faculty remain in service through the summer session. 0- timekek 'E Quiieexw A gg!! iq: 'Q - H W n ' .

These, together with the annual Spring Festival, the coming of which affords all great pleasure, offer great advantages in musical educational lines. The recitals of the faculty, including the piano recital by Miss Edith Usry and the pipe organ recital, given by Miss Elizabeth Leland, were a source of great interest. The students' recitals, including piano, voice, and violin, which have taken place every two weeks, have been attended by appreciative audiences. Another feature which has been an incentive toward bringing out the musical abil- ity of students, aside from those of the musical department, was the organization of the orchestra under the direction of Miss Pauline Engleman. An advantage which has been offered for the first time directly in connection with Des Moines College is the instruction of pipe organ under the supervision of Miss Le- land. This opportunity no doubt in the future will add much to the musical college. The recent improvements in connection with the College, particularly the girls' dor- mitory, have aided the musical department and have been instrumental in uniting the in- terests of the College as a whole. By means of this co-operation the College is enabled to offer a course equal to that offered by other colleges: , 0- Himixeem ' E Otttieexgih fy Laura Pearson Marion Mcnlzcr Faye Rhodes Lucile Schilling Anna Rust Anna Jensen Alma Garber Minnie Cray Hazel Sanborn W' f.

EJ .4-1 Oratory Department HERE is an old story which says that in the time when Greece Hourished, there lived a lad, Demosthenes, who had aspirations to become an orator. His greatest obstacle was stuttering, and to rid himself of it he used to go mfg out by the sea, fill his mouth with pebbles, and try to talk above the waves. As time went on he overcame this difficulty and became a great orator. Although most students do not need the severe training that Demosthenes had, they do need the work that the Oratory Department can give. The class room work supple- ments the student's knowledge of English by practical drill, while the private work gives him special training in public speaking. There has been an increased interest in such work this year, and the department is one of which Des Moines College need not be ashamed. -T 1 0-Emikgek ' 'E Qufieexx W ff mem er the interest with which 3 1 Y we read last summer the announcement that Miss l.. aura Kramer had been ch head of th D osen e epartment of Oratory.

She is the most charming fun-loving pro- fessor in all Iowa. From all ove th r e state they send for her to f ' h citals and coa h ' ' urms re- c contests. Miss Kramer is mat f ser o her art. Few equal and none excel her She handl . es pathetic scenes in true masterly fashion. You will sit with the tear drops starting fro m your eyes, but before they fall your mouth will broaden and you will be leaning back for a good hearty laugh. You can't help it. And then right before you, you will hear a little girl of ten years talking and you will wonder how anyone could handle child dialect so perfectly. This matter of child talk is Miss Kramer's great- est achievement, but she can also make you laugh with some charming French- Canadian dialect impersonations, with which she never fails to delight her audiences. As a chaperon on class bums she has few who can equal her. lt is indeed with pleasure th t ' a we welcome Miss Kramer among us. .. mkem- Eotvcieexxa g . .I ' mf I G H ,112 I fi . . g-. -,-,-, A f. e 1' 2 ., wi ,f i I 1 1 'l X ' ..- vl.

The stu- dents taking the various courses offered have done their work conscientiously N' Qi, and made the required credits. The most popular work of the department EFS fi is undoubtedly the technical drawing and painting. Students are always fond of drawing and delighted with the use of color. Many interesting studies have been executed in oil and water colors, as may be seen in the annual exhibi- ,1 nfl rl tion of the students' work. But do not imagine that these results have been attained without serious study or are entirely dependent upon talent No matter how gifted the student, he must ex- pend energy and concentration beyond that required for almost anything else to acquire an adequate knowledge of form, color and technique. There are two graduates from the Drawing Supervisors' Course this year: Miss Helen Gooch, of Des Moines, who is well known in the College, and Mrs. Margaret Lane, supervisor of drawing at Col- fax, Iowa. Mrs. Lane has already proved herself an efficient teacher and is a credit to the department and to the College. ' The usefulness of the work this year has been increased by the addition of classes in Public School Drawing and the l-listory of Art for the students of the Home Eco- nomics and Primary Departments.

TFORENSIC ORATORICAL ASSOCIATION Poo tif 6' N ZZ ff 5 Q 6 5 , 'HE same high standard that has characterized the work of the Qratorical As- F75 - sociation in the past was maintained at Des Moines College this year.. The g College has been honored by the fact that W. H. Dreier held during the 'F l?t k past year the oflice of secretary and treasurer of the State Association. The 'dig ' home contest was held in the Trinity M. E.. Church on November 22d, with the following representatives: Wm. Dennis, The Twentieth Cen- tury Reformationf' Fred E. Dean, The Trial of the Outcastf' Earl R. Sifert,. The WILLIAM H. DREIER Secretary State Oratorical Association True Spirit of Peace. The markings in this contest were .very close, with Mr. Sifert in the lead. This made him a contestant in the di- visional contest held at Toledo on Friday, Feb- ruary 7th. Here Mr. Sifert met with several representatives from other colleges and won second place. The final contest was held in Des Moines on Friday evening, March 7th, and a great many of the students took advantage of the op- portunity thus afforded them to hear the orators of the eight colleges that won places in the di- visional contests. We were all proud of our Johnson, of own orator, Mr. Sifert. Mr. Morningside College, who won first place at Toledo, took second place here, and Mr. D. B. Heller, of Iowa Wesleyan College, who won first at Cedar Rapids, took first in this con- test. Another feature of interest to Des Moines College students was the banquet held at the Y. M. C. A.

CABINET 'ANY folks, upon reading about .the Student.Vol.unteer Band, are apt to set lj, 1 to work immediately that machinery of their minds which operates what IS Elm' known as curiosity, in an endeavor to imagine what is referred to, whether i a brass band or some other militant organization. This band does not beat SG a drum nor does it necessarily advocate the use of firearms as a means of warfare. The local Student Volunteer Band is one factor in the great stu- dent movement in America and Europe. The central organization is not a mission board, but it does co-operate with the mission boards of the various Protestant denomi- nations. Its purpose is primarily to present to the students of Christian colleges and uni- versities the claims of the foreign field for Christian service. This work is accomplished by sending out secretaries to visit the colleges over the land and, by holding personal in- terviews and by conducting mass meetings and conventions, to bring to young men and women the facts concerning the progress of Christianity in the world. As students en- list with the movement their names are referred to the board of the denomination of which they are members. Briefly, by becoming a Volunteer, one expresses the purpose of not allowing mere selfishness to prevent one from giving his life's service where Cod seems to lead him. It is the business of the local Band to create in the best way possi- ble a deeper sense of responsibility on the part of all students toward extending Christian- ity in the world. .imikgclig 'ieurfleexg .. Gospel Team Work M665 , ' HE Y. M. C. A. this year has kept up the good record of past years in pro- moting its gospel team work. During the Thanksgiving recess a team of l Hve young men, including the regular college quartet, held meetings at the 3LQ2 ? ' Camden Church, near Grand River, and during the Christmas vacation two .J teams, both quartets with an extra speaker, carried on campaigns at Truro and Summerset. The interest and results were gratifying. This sort of evangelistic work is becoming more and more popular with the college men and with the churches where the meetings have been held. The methods are informal and particular stress is placed on the phase of personal contact with the young people of the communi- ties where the teams work. Experience shows that young men, banded together in this way, are able to interest young people in gospel work who have previously seen but little that was appealing. Not only are the communities benefited by this service, but the young men who take part as well. A number of men testified that they had had the experience of their lives and that they now had a larger vision of Christ and his work, because of the associations with the other men of the team and with the Christian people of the churches. It is the desire of the Y. M. C. A. that in years to come even more men may become interested in this noble work and that numerous meetings may be held from time to time.

The club owes much to Miss Watson, who not only inspired a band of students to organize the club, but aided very materially in that organization. No less is it indebted to Miss Kramer, the present director of am Oratory, who helped the students to put on Our Alma Mater before Christmas. That the play was a success, and the cast well chosen, was largely due to the tireless efforts of Miss Kramer. No hour was too early or top late for her to go to rehearsals. The eleven new members who were initiated into the club have made good, and the members now feel that the club is a permanent thing in the College. Director . . . Pianist .... First Violin..

The members of the College Quartet are included in the the first statement above, for they were born with the ability to carry a tune. The second statement applies to them, for they have been working to put themselves in a position where, by their singing, they would be able to please themselves and others. The last part of the old saying is also appli- cable, for in the past six months pleasures in the form of privileges have been literally showered upon them. It may be that you and the College Quartet are strangers. If so, please become acquainted at once. It was in January, nineteen eleven, that these fellows were organ- ized into a gospel team. Their first meeting was held at Glenwood during the spring va- cation of that year, with Dr. Batten as preacher and leader of the team. They tried' singing together, and enjoyed the work so well that after the meetings they continued practice, and added a number of secular songs to their repertoire. The following fall Dad Hageman came to D. M. C. He could never bear to see anyone idle, and so he decided to take this quartet out for week-end evangelistic trips. Meetings at Forest City, Waverly, and Creston were 'the principal ones of the year. It was during this time that the quartet began to receive calls to sing for church dinners, socials, funerals, and conventions in Des Moines. These meetings and social functions kept them practicing, and paved the way for an unexpected opening, which came last fall when the Jeffers-Wick Chautauqua System offered them a place on their circuit. This system is composed of about seventy-five Chautauquas and will keep the quartet busy continuously from the middle of June to the lirst of September. In preparation for the work, of the coming summer the quartet has utilized part of the Christmas vacation and several week-ends since in giving entertain- gent? In these they have been assisted by Miss Kramer, Miss Watson, and Geo. C. tap es. i Glenwood . . . . . December 27 Hamburg .................. ..

Aelioian , HE. Aelio rose bush has flourished this year under the tender care which has been bestowed upon it. All are glad to see the bush increasing in size and putting forth strong, sturdy buds and blossoms, which are the hardier WIS for having endured the cold winds of programs and contest. But the roses have felt repaid, for in this way they have been able to keep the beautiful Rowland's Trophy in their garden since it was first offered in nineteen ten. And when the sunny days of spreads, parties, and general good times come, they were able to enjoy them all the more. Not even the frequent visits of the Clio goat have marred their beauty and, as long as they make him more gentle and tame, none object to Billy's visits. The Aelio rose bush is of a special variety. It is unlike others in that it puts forth new buds in the fall. The buds which appeared last fall are growing strong- er and more beautiful each day and, unless picked from the bush too soon, will de- velop into lovely Aelio roses. Something unusual occurred this spring, which has made the roses very happy. Five tiny new buds were discovered on the bush, buds which promise to be of the same fine variety as the others. They will be given the same care and be put through the same vigorous training for the remainder of the year as their older sisters, so that they also may become more beautiful and efficient, and be indeed true light bearers. The rose bush is proud of her seventy-one blossoms, which have come to full bloom and are now scattered over the country, bearing light where'er they go. When- ever one of these roses finds her way back to the garden, she may always be certain of a hearty and joyous welcome. .. nbzfaeigemg E ouuiegtgm :Ty 67 ,S AELIOI.-XN I-oi' 5 1 RQQXA.

SEARCH FOR TRUTH '---wfigm NCE upon a time a grand old castle stood upon a little knoll, nestling among the rolling prairies of the 'West. It was a beautiful place and the castle was famous for the culture and knowledge which could be gained within its great stone walls. One day ten maidens, weary and footsore as if from l a long journey, knocked at the door of this castle. An attendant answered their summons and bade them enter. What seekest thou? he asked. H We seek knowledge and truth, they answered. Then you must see the king, and before they were scarcely aware of it they had been ushered into the presence of his majesty. So thou art seeking knowledge and truth, said that great being. Knowledge thou shalt have, but truth I cannot offer thee. That thou must find for thyself. And with a wave of his scepter he dismissed them from the room. Now, these ten little maids grew and flourished and were so busy and happy in gaining the knowledge which they had desired, that for the time they forgot all about truth. By and by they began to feel restless and unhappy, however, and a longing for something which they could not express filled their hearts and minds. One day, as they were strolling discontentedly about the castle, one of them discov- ered a beautiful shield hanging upon the wall. She took it down and began to examine it. It was of two colors, lavender and white, and surely those strange letters carved upon it were symbols of something great and wonderful. They determined to find out, if pos- sible, the mystery of the letters, and after many days spent in searching and delving among the histories of the nations for some little clue to the meaning of this magic shield, they found that it was the shield of truth: that truth which they had been longing for and yet had so sadly neglected all these days. But having now found it they valued it above all other things, and with the beautiful narcissus as an emblem of purity they were united in a bond of friendship and love never to be broken. Later, when other maidens seeking truth came to this castle and were conducted be- fore the king he pointed with pride to Zetalethia and said, Not only knowledge, but even truth thou mayst receive within these castle walls. Take it and prize it greatly, for it is the rarest of all the jewels which thou canst ever hope to possess. 4 Accordingly the maidens have prized this treasure and as each day slips away their love grows ever stronger and truer for Zetalethia. altlang O Zeta dear, in years to come, When college days are o'er, And we no longer haunt thy hall As in the days of yoreg When we have entered our life work, Whate'er that work may beg May we uphold the shield of truth In memory of thee.

Nawadaha has been doing some very good literary work this year. Although not as much has been accomplished as was desired, because of many things interfering with our time of meeting, yet we feel that this has been a profntable year. We have striven to uphold the splendid records of former members in oratory and debate and have suc- ceeded. One of our number won the Junior Oratorical Contest, a number of our men won places on the College debating teams, and at the present time several are busy writ- ing essays and orations for the Rowland's Trophy Contest. just grind? Yes, while we're at it. We have our good times, too. Anyone who has been with us when we have had our watermelon feed, our annual bob ride, our Nawa- Lethian program, or our annual canoe trip will vouch for this fact. I see before me the picture of one of our former members. As he sits in his com- fortable Morris chair by the evening fireside, the paper he has been reading falls from his hand. He is lost in thought. How pleasant the memory of that first watermelon feed. How delicious they did taste. How he ate and kept on eating until all the world had taken on the green hue of watermelons. His feeling for the pleasure of that occasion is more pleasant now than immediately after. From this his mind wanders to the different canoe trips he has taken. Oh, those anxious hours he has spent in deciding which fair damsel he should ask to share the joys of the occasion with him. Ah, yes, those were happy days. Again his thoughts wander. A smile plays about his face. Bonehead, he whispers, as he slaps himself on the knee. He is thinking of the so- ciety's annual bob ride. He sees himself knocking at the door of the house where the girl of his dreams is staying. The door is opened and she stands before him. All con- fused, he tries to recall the words he had expected to say. He tries to rub something from his eye with one hand and with the other he scratches his ear. What he asked her he never knew: however, he still remembers that with a twinkle in her eye she informed him that he had called a trifle too late. Yes, those were pleasant days. Yawning, the occupant of the Morris chair rises, kicks his moccasins under the chair and walks from the room singing half aloud to himself: Nawadaha, pride of my heart, Many the joys thou didst to me impart: Give thou then in untold measure, Similar joys to those I treasure, To thy gallant braves.

During the past year the goat has been very restless. Several times people of the campus have been attracted toward the scene of disturbance, and each time Billy was found to be the cause. Careful and authoritative investigation proved in each instance, however, that Billy was simply more hilarious and more jovial in his exer- cise than usual. The fact that Billy and his renowned disciples have been making a big noise has not been a surprise to those who have looked on from the inside. Billy has surely butted his way to fame and popularity. A new Goat's House has been his watch- word for years, and finally College authorities permitted him to locate in the front room on the second fioor of Burlington l-lall. Strong literary work has also been especially obvious at times during the year. Clio is generally recognized to be strong in this department. As to social life-let the world speak for us. Come, all ye gentlemen of the Goat family, and see the Goat's Den. olszimxgefxi - E ounieexgiw 3 lil.. V A A I . . ,..,., ,.... ii! ' 1.5 f , hh X ,. - AAL.- ' .IB 1 .

The Philolexian is one of the oldest societies in school. It has been reorganized four times, has had a membership ranging in number from thir- ty-three to nothing, and has twice been a mixed society, but never for any great length of time, since, in the flrst case, the faculty saw lit to form a separate society for the girls, and in the latter case the fair ones of their own accord decided to form a society of their own. Of the twelve boys left, when the fair members withdrew in February, nineteen hundred and twelve, only five returned in September. All went to work with a will, and soon fifteen new members were added to the society. The former Clionian room in Burlington Hall was appropriated and neatly furnished for the needs and uses of Philo. In these new quarters, and under a practically new constitution, good literary work has been done, and all the standards of Philo have been raised. Nor has the social side been forgotten. Many have been the spreads and spring fever bums along the banks of the Old Des Moines. Here's to next year's Academy and many more years of Philolexian as prosperous and happy as this has been! chi PHILOLEXIAX ,. . . , Wi t' its ' Pi Rho Eta Pi OFFICERS President ...... ....... . .JANE RANDOLPH Vice-President .. . .MINNIE BAIvIPoRD Secretary .... ......

Cocking's great weakness was his lack of speed, and although it was his last year on the team he was unable to overcome this defect despite his continued good work at shooting baskets both from the floor and from the foul line. Claude Pease, who held down the forward position oppo- site to the big captain, was one of the hardest workers on the squad and could be depended upon as a consistent point win- ner. l-le was slowed down by illness during a part of the season, but was in the thick of the fray at all times. . Bill Dreier probably is the most versatile athlete at Des Moines College, and by playing center on the basketball team last winter he added one more feather to his already gaudily bedecked cap. As if it were not enough to be a high jumper, quarter miler, hurcller, shot putter, hammer and discus thrower for the track team of which he is now captain, Bill won regu- lar places on the football and basketball teams. While he did not shine in basketball, as in track and field athletics, he did as well as could be expected of a novice in a difficult po- sition. Although somewhat slow, he stuck to his opponents in clever style. Lee Timbey was the only Prep on the squad. When introduced into the game as a substitute guard he manifested a desire to keep the ball out of.the enemies' possession, al- though he was slow and inexperienced. Another year should eradicate this green tinge, and he should develop into a for- midable defensive player. Q Walter Mead, the veteran guard, was by far the most aggressive player on the team and easily deserved a place on the all-Iowa minor college team. Not only did he prove la constant source of worry to his opposing forward, but he did some effective work as a running guard and caged many bas- kets during the season. He was the fastest member-of the five and was an invaluable cog in the offensive machine de- veloped by Coach Hayward. Joe Risser, the back guard, was lVlead's equal as an ag- gressive player, and there was nothing in the defensive line too strenuous for Old Black Joe to attempt. He was the equal of the speedy Mead at breaking up the dribbling or team work of the opposing team, although he had fewer op- portunities to try for shots at the basket. Paul Earl, although a novice at the game, proved to be a valuable substitute when a fighting forward was needed. His goal shooting was spasmodic, but in another season he should blossom out into a capable forward, as he is neither lacking in willingness nor aggression. Ray Risser is another substitute who should make a strong blcl for a regular berth next year. At forward or guard he was equally effective despite his small size. Speed was his greatest asset and he constantly worried his opponent and did his share in the scoring department. -By H. P. Lowell. Sports Writer Register and Leader. r 'es la Y' M! ,- ,jx .

However, Durey's record of 9:46 for the two-mile race still remains untouched in the Missouri Valley Conference. This year our men have been somewhat handicapped by the lack of a regular coach, but Dreier and Miller have done wonders with the material at hand. Prospects for a good season are bright. Captain Dreier is in good shape and can be depended on for a goodly number of points. He is recognized as the best hurdler and high jumper in the state, and can hold his own for the short distances. I-le has also come within two feet of breaking the college record in the discus throw. Miller, for the past two years, has been recognized as the best long distance man in the state, outside of Durey. ' Of the new men, Ray Risser, Newell, Hammans, Joe Risser and Cleaver are showing good form in the shorter distances. Smith, with a little training, will become a star long distance man, while Fosdiclc and Gillette have already proven their worth as able assistants to Miller. Fosdick won renown by taking lirst in the cross country run this season in exceptionally fast time. The team will enter the invitation state meet at Grinnell, the state meet at Des Moines, and will send representatives to the Missouri Valley meet at Missouri.

We're back again after being out of college baseball for a number of years. After several side conferences and talk it over meetings, the baseball bug got busy at a meeting of about thirty would- be diamond stars and decided to place a real ball team in college circles this spring. I-I. I... Wilson was chosen captain and coach to guide the destiny of the infant, while E. R. Sifert was elected manager. Si immediately began securing games with considerable success. Coach Willie has lined up an infield that gives great promise. Cocking at first base is a good hitter and a brilliant fielder. Harry Corrie literally eats 'em up at the keystone sack. Paul Earl and Shipley put up a great scrap for shortstop. The loser is to be used as utility inhelder. Buster Beard practically walked off with third base. Hitting is Spaghetti's strong point, he being our lead-off man. l-le can field and springs a joke when least expected. Willie will probably be our mainstay in the box, with Neidt and Hagan as re- lief pitchers. l-lagan possesses great speed and in another year should be a great twirler. Neidt, while not a sensational man, has a good level head and can hit with any of them. Si and Tommy, our catchers, are fast rounding into form and can be de- pended upon to turn them back from second. Both are strong hitters. The outfield is a rather perplexing problem. Timby is a fixture in center field. ln addition to being the fastest man on the team, he is a good batter and may break up a game any time with a timely wallop. Bruce Corrie, Kivits, Menzies and Doc Morrison are in line for left and right fields. With a good pitching staff, strong batters and fielders, Coach Wilson predicts a successful season. ' What the football team failed to do, what the basketball team failed to do, the baseball team is determined to do-- Wallop the Dutch.

One of these positions of honor is the job of College Yell Leader. Knocked by everybody, Hballed out because he called for a Hoya instead of Any Day, Every Day: slurs cast upon his character because he neglected to give nine rahs for a certain player, who happened to be a Freshman while he himself was a Soph.: these are but a few of the trials of a College Yell Leader. The writer of this little article has long felt that some compensation was due to the man upon whom so much mud is thrown. A fitting recognition of the man who is responsible, to a large degree, for main- taining that which is so essential to a college, College Spirit, will tencl in years to come to induce others who are capable to sacrifice their time to this work. After vainly endeavoring all fall to force upon one man after another the position of College Yell Leader, a man was found at the beginning of the basketball season. Although busier, perhaps, than any other man in College, he sacrificed his time and energy with such determination that College Spirit was boomed to a higher pitch than it had been since Durey won the two mile. You ought to see Risser wind up the tiger scream. It would make the most sedate ministerial student in the College forget his dignity and yell till his lungs burst. 1-EQSXQCR' Yowcieexgmgg W. A. A. All out for the hundred-yard dashl rang out on the clear morning air of April first, nineteen thirteen, at the early hour of four a. m. Soon it was followed with a plain- tive 'Fleda, 'Fleda, why don't you read the names of the entries? And the W. A. A. was in action. But oh, oh, oh, these fair maidens were destined to the disappoint- ment of their young lives, for lurking in ambush nearby were three quiet witnesses, watch- ing with eyes alert this wonderful exhibition of athletic ability. Soon the meet was over, but not before the number of intruders was increased to over two score of hungry mouths, anxious for the feed before their eyes. So, upon a signal, they raided the helpless hostesses from all sides and the W. A. A. field meet of April Hrst, nineteen thirteen, proved to be one grand April fool on the fair Co-eds.

There you have about the cube root extraction of the account of this annual func- tion. Those forty-two people made things lively around Hotel Colfax for the evening. Soon after ar- riving, they started off for Lover's Leap. From there the crowd dispersed in all directions over the beautiful Colfax grounds. Some few wandered aimlessly, some searched for wild flowers: others sought fame by carving initials on the rustic bridges, and still others went out on the railroad track near by and threw stones at the fence posts. Such occupations created an appetite worth while. Then came the banquet. There were six courses, and every one was good. There is little to tell about a dinner, except that it is usually a French menu, prepared by an English chef, and served by Africans: while an Italian orchestra plays the beautiful music of German composers, on American-made instruments. Whether this dinner was similar in each detail, I do not recall, but it was greatly enjoyed. After dinner the broad verandas of the hotel furnished attraction for a number of the party. A few returned by an early car, which added variety by stopping on the way and refusing to start for almost an hour. The remainder of the party came in on the next car, arriving soon after the first party. Was it a pleasant evening? Well, l should sayl Hurrah for the Aelioians and Colfax- a happy combination. FRESHMAN-SOPHOMORE. I9l2 The last l9I2 event of the Freshies and Sophs was the sunrise breakfast given by the Freshmen to the Sophomores, on the twenty-third of May. The scene of the affair was Chautauqua Park. The appetites of those present were enhanced by the morning walk in the clear, crisp air, and the various races after arrival. One race which will always be remembered was that between couples, running backwards, uphill. Poor Cinderella lost her slipper, or rather her pump, and her noble prince was obliged to go to the rescue. Another surprising feature was a race in which Big Bill won, by eating seventeen wienies. He was followed closely by another Sophomore husky, who ate nine bananas. The Sophomores declared that the fun and good grub amply repaid for the sleep lost by rising so early, early, early in the morning. NAWADAHA CANOE, TRIP After stealthily capturing sixteen of D. Nl. C.'s fairest maidens, the Nawadaha braves escaped up the river with pennants flying on May twenty-ninth, nineteen hundred and twelve. Although the current was augmented by the storms upriver, the brawny braves defied its force and beached their canoes in safety at the camp. There it was soon discovered that the captured maidens were pleased with their state, and fun and games reigned supreme. ln the meantime two members of Camp Philo, who were assisting the Nawadaha braves in their pleasure trip, had spread the bounteous repast. Soon all were sitting in lndian fashion around the long table, enjoying a delightful picnic dinner. The afternoon was spent in sports on land and on water, in winding through forest paths and in gathering souvenirs. Again in the evening all gathered around the long table to a most delicious lunch. Soon after the canoes began to float down the river to the tune of merry laughter and jolly singing. The captured maidens were re. turned to mother D. M. C., each declaring that the braves were right royal entertainers. -amixgcm - 'E oufieexg - Q W satis' to ' Y. W. C. A. RECEPTION As an annual event the Y. W. C. A. held an opening reception to the new girls Saturday after- noon, September the twenty-first. Miss Sperry's home was the placelof the pleasant affair. The girls were asked to bring their sewing and amidst introductions many dainty stitches were taken and also many pleasant acquaintances were made. At the close of the afternoon light refreshments were served. after which the girls dispersed, each feeling that she had spent an enjoyable afternoon. -l.- AELIO ENTERTAINS On the evening of October twenty-seventh the Aelioian Literary Society entertained the new girls of the College. The hall was prettily decorated with Aelio and Clio pennants and haw branches. During the evening a very interesting program was given. Mary Walker sang some of her Scotch songs, which are always so greatly enjoyed. Laura Pearson and Florence Adams played a duet and Miss Elizabeth Leland gave a piano solo. Readings were given by Sadie Costello, Dorothy Batten and May Leland. The meeting was honored by the presence of several of the Aelioian alumnae, who gave informal talks. Miss Grace Adams and Miss Wenonah Macy spoke of what Aelio has stood for in the past and what the Aelioian alumnae expect her to stand for in the future. Mrs. Barker, Mrs. Brown and Miss Bernice Lynch expressed their good wishes for Aelio and gave cordial invitations to the College girls to come to their homes. After the program an informal reception was held and refreshments were served. Y. M. C. A. STAG SOCIAL The first social gathering with the Stags will ever be a sweet morsel for the mind to reflect upon when one's hair has turned gray and parted itself in the middle. It is at this gathering that the new student gets his first taste of college life which is to mean so much to him in the years to come. When the doors of the gymnasium were thrown open at seven-thirty, a group of eager and expectant men entered and started the ball rolling. All lined up for a game of swat: blows as thick as the fleas of Egypt fell upon the back of some slow-fooled Achilles: after the olive race the noses of about ten men looked as though they had been soaked in tar for a week. When the blindfolded were permitted to remove the bandages from their eyes some found that they had shoes as badly mated as were Rip Van Winkle and his wife. William Tell felt greatly humiliated when he found that his soldiers had been unable to knock an apple from his head because it was an egg. After all had laughed until they were sure another laugh would unbalance their cerebrum cerebellum a halt was called and watermelons were brought forth from concealment. After the feed was over all marched home whistling loyalty and support to dear old D. M. C. forever. . ZETALETHIA ENTERTAINS On Monday, September twenty-third, nineteen twelve, the girls of Zetalcthig enlgl-tained the new girls in College. The occasion was a japanese party held at the home of Miss Alma ackson. About fifty girls were entertained, and from the time when Miss Jacksons five-year-old neice, fVlarjorie in her little japanese kimono, received them at the door until the old girls bade them good night no aihs were spared to carry out the scheme of entertainment, and to make the girls feel acquainted and atlfiome.

A ' I , Q 4 , PVT' -- 'T 4- ' I M, N CHICKEN ROAST According to an old and pleasant custom. the Seniors were hosts to the student body at a chicken roast shortly after the beginning of school. The place selected this year was Chautauqua Park, the time October the seventeenth, and surely the choice was a happy one. Never was there a more perfect day, and the woods seemed decked for the occasion in glorious autumn colors. The first part of the afternoon was spent in strolling about and in playing old-fashioned games. Everyone caught the holiday spirit: even the facultv joined in the frolics. An four o'clock the crowd assembled to witness the class stunts, an annual feature. The Academy led off with at realistic re- production fin costume?j of a scene in a Votes for Women convention. The one in Chicago wasnt in it. Following the Preps came the Freshmen. Their ancient rivals, the Sophs, were received and reviewed by Saint Peter, alias Mielitz. The Sophomores, anxious to outdo this, gave a laboratory scene in which specimens alleged to have been found on the College campus were minutelv examined and dis- cussed. The juniors followed, presenting in costume a lively skit entitled, ND. M. C. ini Panorama.' Each phase of the school life was touched upon in the clever poetry and music of this act. And then all gathered about the great bonfire on the hillside and partook of the good things which the Seniors had prepared. Needless to say, they were kept rushing about for some time. It was this stunt, too, which seemed to meet with the most popular favor. At last, with yells and songs, the crowd dispersed, and the chicken roast of nineteen twelve entered history as the most enjoyable of its kind. SENIOR WATERMELON SPREAD The members of the Senior class found themselves together for the first time in the fall of nine- teen twelve at the home of Judge Hibbard. The occasion was a watermelon spread given by the judge, who was anxious that the Seniors should start the new year right. The members of the class felt their new responsibility as Seniors in Des Moines College and in spite of the fact that everyone ate a large share of watermelon, all maintained the Senior dignity to a truly surprising degree. At that meeting the judge was elected to the office of honorarv president of the class, an office which he accepted with due aporeciation of the honor conferred upon him. It was a very pleasant evening, the only regret b-:ing that there would be no more watermelon spreads with judge Hibbard, the loyal member of the Senior class of nineteen thirteen. .ii-.-l..i-. ' JUNIOR BUM It was with light hearts and merry voices that the juniors followed the trail to the river for their annual bum. After enjoying wienies, marshmallows, pickles, buns and cakes without end, they sat around a huge bonfire and told stories and jokes until they heard the familiar call of the ten-thirty rule. 'Illhen they gathered together and returned home, feeling that the bonds of friendship were more hrm t an ever. SOPHOMORE BUM On the evening of September twenty-first, nineteen twelve. the Sophomore class started for ln- gersoll Park for a merry time. All were feeling especially gay, after having enjoyed a pleasant vaca- tion. Although several of their number had not returned, they noticed a few additions to the group. Upon their arrival at the park, they went to work picking up material for making a fire. The fire made, they enjoyed themselves roasting wienies and marshmallows. All went home feeling that the reunion had, indeed, been a joyful occasion. FRESHMAN BUM U The Freshman class, with a Zipl Booml Rah! Freshmenlll started on its first bum Thursday night, September nineteenth, nineteen twelve. Following directions, they arrived at Urbandale Park. Here a bonfire was built amid the chatterings of the girls and according to the directions of the chap- erones. Each one ate his fill of wienies, buns, pickles, apples and marshmallows. being filled up for the first time since leaving home. Several brilliant members of the class gave readings and songs, after which all hastened obediently homeward. 1 , - Emikgelx ' 'E OHYXQQQ .. f'Q9N r 4 Q s T was Q ' la sae bl , T BAcKwARDs PARTY As a rule, College girls do-not like to be considered backwards in anything, but the exception to this rule occurred on the evening of November the second., when'a few of the D. M. C. girls enjoyed a backwards progressive party. The girls arrived wearing their wraps and dresses backwards: some even had their hair dressed in the same unbecoming style. They were admitted at the back door and welcomed backwards by Miss Agnes St. Clair and Miss Katharine Shipley with the greeting, Good night. Sitting with their backs to each other the girls enjoyed several' new games before the 'finger bowls were passed and they were served with the third course of a dainty luncheon. Progressmg to Miss Phyllis Preston's they were initiated into a new stunt and served the second course. Here they posed for fiashlights. Al Miss Hazelle Moore's the girls were conducted to the basement, where they removed their wraps. Here the lirst course of the luncheon was served, after which the napkins were passed. After giving a few charades and bidding the hostess Good evening and How do youldo, the guests departed, conscious of the fact that being backwards is not such an unpleasant experience after all. B. Di. RECEPTION On Monday afternoon, October twenty-first, Mrs. Reynolds and her Primary girls entertained the B. Di. students and the Home Economics girls in the Primary Training rooms, which were attractively decorated with autumn leaves, jack o' lanterns and various colored candles. One feature of entertain- ment greatly appreciated by all present was the stories and reminiscences which Miss Bowen and Mrs. Beahr related concerning their travels through Germany the past summer. As the hour progressed the party divided into groups and passed into the corner room, where dainty refreshments were served by the Primary girls. After a picture of this merry group had been taken, the guests departed, voting the Primary girls the most royal of hostesses. I NAWADAHA-ZETALETHIA On Friday evening of December thirteenth, the Nawadahas gave their annual reception to the Zetalethian girls, in the Y. W. and Y. M. rooms. Pennants were used profusely in decorating the wallsp Christmas greens and tastefully arranged cozy corners gave the entire place a truly festive ap- pearance. After an informal reception, twenty-five couples took their places in the grand promenade. Some time was devoted to the playing of old-fashioned games, and a geographical story proved fasci- nating and most amusing. A short program of interesting features was given, at the close of which delicious refreshments were served, a lavender and white color scheme being carried out, even to the cake. The evening was brought to a fitting close by the singing of the famous Paean to Zetalethia. This is one of the most prominent social events of the year, and is always looked forward to with pleasant anticipation. This year's affair was a great success and will be long remembered by those fortunate enough to be the guests of Nawadaha. I HALLOWE'EN PARTY lt was in the bleak October and two score of students sober, Clad in garb of ghost and devil, with uncertain steps and slow, Searched the town for witches dwelling, where a lantern would be telling To the pleasure-seeking students, You have found the place to go. Soon the Jack o' Lanterns grinning, promise made of the beginning Of a Hallowe'en party, in an attic old and gray. joyfully we all assembled, though sometimes 'fore devils trembled, Fearing that in nether regions we might dwell with them some day. Witch and gypsy fortune teller ruled the place from roof to cellar, Cold and silent stood the hostess as a statue, marble shapedg Every guest was masked completely, some were hastily clad, some neatly, But each one in speech and action some old curious creature aped. Fortunes given for the asking, lots of fun about unmasking, Blindfold journeys o'er the house and jolly snake dance on the lawng There were but in part the actions, just a few of the attractions Which the nine wierd sister witches finishegl six hours before dawn. At the president's home, cheery, was this scene of students merry, Which we now attempt to tell you, with apologies to Poe. And the last thing of the evening was some happy old-time singing, 'And we cheered the nine weird sisters when the sad time came to go. ' A. S.-F. D. 4, - Eusgkgely- 'Q antigen, - -v WASHINGTON B.-XXQUET A , . ' SPINSTER PARTY Although specializing is reported a specialty' at Des Moines College, one finds occasionally enough of those less fortunate CU to make a congenial group. Such a company was assembled one Saturday evening about the middle of October. Every one of the. fifteen present was a uspinsterlof good standing, according to the opinion of the hostesses. Each individual spent a few harassing moments during the evening in which she disclosed to the others the reason for her condition of single blessedness, and revealed to their curious gaze his portrait. The prize for the most pathetic tale was a heart-shaped box of kisses. Heart-shaped sandwiches, tea, and cake from home were served be- fore the spinsters departed to assume again before the cold, cruel world their rigid role. THE WASHINGTON BANQUET On the afternoon of the twenty-fourth of February there was considerable excitement in the halls of the dormitory. Each room received several callers who came to see the beautiful flowers and dresses. One might have thought that the occasion was to be an inaugural ball. but it was better than that. lt was the annual Washington Banquet. At seven o'clock the Hoyt Sherman Place began to fill with guests. After a pleasant reception in the parlors Des Moines College assembled by classes to march to the dining room, the procession being led by the faculty and followed by Sophomores, juniors, Academy students, Seniors, Freshmen, and alumnae. The spacious dining room was well filled with tables which presented a pretty appearance with their tasteful decorations of red carnations and flags. Nearly one hundred and fifty people par- took of the excellent six-course dinner. The courses were interspersed with lively songs and yells by the various classes of the College. The rivalry was keen and class spirit as wcll as College spirit ran high. When all had done justice to the dinner, the toastmaster, Harry Corrie, arose and presided over the re- mainder of the festive occasion.

M ARGARET HEAPS The Twilight s Last Gleamingu THE JUNIOR CLASS DINNER The Christmas season at Des Moines College is always marked by many happy social affairs, but of them all, perhaps, none was more enjoyable than the junior class dinner on the evening of De- cember eighteenth. The small dining room in the new Y. -Nl. C. A. was chosen as the scene of festivities and at seven o'clock a very jolly crowd of eighteen young people surrounded the large square table, in the center of which was an improvised snow-covered hill, out of which grew a real Christmas tree. ln fact, it was Christmasy from,first to last. The delicious four-course dinner, with its roasted chicken and cran- berry sauce, the red and green ropes festooning the walls, and especially the toasts, all emphasized the holiday season. Mr. Dean as toastmaster was a veritable Santa Claus, and each toast was a request for some gift. Strange to say, Santa's generous bag seemed always to contain the desired article, from Mr. Beatty's airship to Mr. Lusk's laundry wagon, so that the returning company, on the street cars, resem- bled a miniature toy shop and every one was sure his gift was just what he wanted most. Mrs. Page acted as chaperon for the evening. .. Simikgem - Eoutieexxgw u f ' jf lax JUNIOR SKATING PARTY Choosing a quiet, moonlight night in February, the juniors, with Miss Kramer as chaperon, went skating on the river near the Sixth Avenue bridge. After having worked up a perfectly good appetite for an oyster supper, they returned to the dormitory only to find that the Sen-tors had beaten them there. However, the juniors were generous, and finding that they could do real missionary work by feeding the starved, they permitted the Seniors to continue in their repast, and cheerfully ordered more oysters for themselves. CHAFING DISH PARTY The last of january a bunch of girls decided to initiate the boys into the mysteries of the chafing dish art. They met at I-Iazelle IVIoore's and after playing Som- R -Set, the boys drew lots for th-cir stunts. Rodney Miller made the best fudge he ever ate: IVIcRae thoroughly enjoyed sampling the rn- gredients of the salad: IVIr. Rust proved himself a connoisseur in the art of making Welsh rarebit: Dean was a general handy man, sup lying the alcohol and tending the fires: IVIr. Beatty cracked nuts and jokes: Cocking made enough chocolate for himself, but not enough for anyone else, while IVIr. Risser inspired the boys to their best by playing their favorites, and then snapped their picture while they were still in the height of their glory over their grand achievements. SOPHOMORE BUM To THE Vicroas Br:LoNc Tm-1 SPou.s You can see on the page opposite a picture of the very great host who were so mean as to break up a Sophomore spread one day this spring. Not very large nor very haughty, you say, but perhaps that is the way we looked to the Sophs. They did have good apples and their marshmallows were superb. We must admit that those Sophs intended to treat themselves well. As to cuff links, we have heard of one being lost from one of the dorm. rooms. Wonder if Sadie ever got that letter from the Junction. THE ZETALETHIA-NAWADAHA VALENTINE PARTY One of the most enjoyable social events of the year occurred when the Zetalethia girls entertained their Indian brothers at their annual Valentine Party. This year the fair maidens induced the Indian braves to try their skill at shooting hearts. As the judges were unable to come to a decision as to the winner. the contest was declared a tie. The girls had planned many pleasant surprises, but the most enjoyable ones were a reading given by Miss Grace Murphy, of St. Charles, Iowa, and two selections by the Zetalethian double quartette. Refreshments were served in lavender and seal brown colors. THANKSGIVING PARTY On November twenty-eighth all the students of D. M. C., save those who found their exchequer lrlather low, or felt stronger forces holding them in Des Moines, left to partake of turkey at their respective omes. Miss Sperry, wishing to make conditions as homelike as possible, invited those who could do so to come to her home that evening to take part in a candy making, a corn popping, and a nut cracking. There were no old chestnuts cracked and we have not heard of anyone popping, but nevertheless thc little gathering was a very enjoyable one. CANDY SALE One of the rare events of the spring was the Great Bar an Sale of Choice Candies iven b the Y. W. C. A.. the last Wednesday before the spring vacation? The sale was announced togopen aii nine a. m., but fully an hour previous to that time the lobby was thronged with anxious bargain seek- ers. If there were any discontented or uncomfortable expressions that morning, they may be ascribed to the fact that before the morning was half gone all the candy had been cleared out. The old adage holds good that the early bird catches the worm. 1 4 9- Emikgem - 'E oxmieetg - .JQIQQ f? 0 QB-'Sw Gfegfl' p - 9 79 YR D. M. C. Catechism I.

Nickel I' NE. day, when was down town shopping, a floor Walker gave me a live- cent piece which attracted my attention and interested 'me very much. It 854 had turned Gray with age and had Moore Rust on it than any nickel I had ever seen. I knew that there were I-leaps of French Earls who would 19lfQ'Fi just Sifert if they knew I possessed such a coin, and whistling the tune of Dix-ie I strode back over the Green Meade, which was decked with Garlands of Ferns and Marguerites to my Neidt little home in Leland. Just as I entered my own door, however, my Brown pocketbook flew open and out rolled my interesting nickel. I searched for it, but of no avail. .And so I threw my- self down upon my bed to rest. Then a strange thing happened. That nickel walked right out from under my bed and began talking to me. Here I am, it said. You didn't look quite sharply enough or you would have found me. But since I know that you are interested in me and are anxious about my life I will relate with Pryde a few of my Worth-y adventures to you. I belong to a family of coins called nickels. You perhaps studied about us in the Milnes arithmetic. Ah, yes, I said. We have a descendant of that man in our college. Well, never mind that, interrupted the nickel. My time Grohes short and I must hasten. So I contented myself and the nickel went on. I have a great many brothers and sisters and we are sent out into the world to do a Noble work for humanity. Only the other day a little girl named Bertha, who had been pining away, spent me for a Hershey and it really saved her life, for she was soon as Strong as ever, and so you see our mission here is as earnest as that of any Abbot or even of good Saint Clair him- self. Well, as I was saying, I was spent for this Hershey and the clerk put me in a Sherwood Case with others of my family. Presently a black-eyed, dark-haired little girl came in and said, 'Papa, I want a nickel.' So her father gave me to her, but when I saw that she kept looking at that Case all the time with such longing eyes I decided to punish her and slipped out of her hands and rolled away Closz to a radiator near by. I kept very still until she left, when a lady And-er-son, Paul, came in. The little boy. Cocking his head to one side, suddenly spied me and cried, 'Oh, mother, I have found a nickel,' and then he Preston me until I was deep down into his pocket. There was a big Rush on the street that day, for people had come from all Rhodes and every by- way to see McRae's big circus. Of course, my new master went to see the animals and he said that he had never seen a Wilder animal in his life than the big lion all be- decked with silver Spanglers and gold lace. ,lust as the little boy left the tent he dropped me into a Bower of Mielitz growing by the wayside. Presently a man with a Beard came by and sat down to rest by the Q- simekgexx- Eouuieetgb 7 g , 1 'If'-.,.-wfff 4 wr c.Alo vy U afarg r 4 71 Q side of this beautiful Bower. Seeing me, he picked me up and again I was confined to the darkness of a man's pocket. He said, 'Now Ione enough money to buy Toys for my little daughters, Fleda and Jeannette, and neither beast Norman shall prevent me.' At that moment along came an old Miller, who was Lindy and White with age. 'Please, Mister, I must have some money to buy some Beers or else a Bollwinef 'You better go Westrate to the end of this street, or Lusk, the constable, will pinch you.' 'Hey? What did you say? My name is Timby and by the Powers no one dares to Lynch Timby.' H 'Wymanl if the constable Wills it, you may be killed.' The unfortunate Miller disappeared, singing 'Sweet Beulah Land' as he went. Then the man with the Beard went to a Newell near by to get a drink of water and lying on the well curb he found a Shilling. He washed it off with some clear water and when it was Dreier put it into his pocket with me. Feeling quite hungry as well' as thirsty, he looked about for a place to get a lunch. He stepped into a restaurant and a waitress whose name was Adelia told him that they were serving Everlnlham a la Demi and lovely new Pease that day. After he had eaten his lunch he handed some money to the proprietor, Mr. Emmans, who said, 'I have only a Dowler in change. You may pay me some other time.' He then went home and said to his wife, who was Hemming some towels which she had found in the Garret, 'Iva Blackburn on my Hanson arms and I wish you would bandage it up for me.' 'I see Morris-on his pony. We will send him down to Corrie's drug store after some Baker salve,' said the good wife. But Morris said, 'I won't go, mother.' 'Yes, but you Willsonf said his mother. 'Run along and you can let Kjars- gaard ybour pony until you return. Here is a nickel to pay for it,' and she put me into his han . The next day, Corrie, the druggist paid me with some other money to a man. named Smith for some wood. 'But,' said he, 'there were about a ton of thorns all over that wood and if we want to buy a Thornton we know where we can get it cheaper than from you.' Then Mr. Smith's wife spent me for a new orange and black dress and the next person I saw was you. Oh, how interesting, I said, and was just about to ask the nickel how it came to be under my bed when I was aroused by a knock upon my door, and opening it I encountered the Dean, who, having noticed a Ray of light shining forth from my room, had come to inform me that it was time for darkness to reign supreme. I realized that I must have been asleep, and as my mind reviewed the details of my dream I thought that in the case of this nilgkel, at least, life had been only a dream.

Well, I guess yes. Gunder- son headed the procession when the Tennis Gang got busy after he had showed up about an hour late, and Rev. Emmons brought up the rear. The great and the near-great, faculty as well as student-Dr. Earl along with Hammans-everybody got it. Dean Cloyd got it for starting a faculty yell, and Prof. Fulcher got it for not starting anything. Prof. Fogdall got it for working too hard and Hagan got it for not working enough. And that stretching of Si sure started the music. How that baseball and track gang did jump onto the tennis gang. Wooten fought for his proteges, but went down in the shuffle. Talk about democracy and the equality of man. Socialism isn't in it compared to a Des Moines College Campus Day. But mixed up with all the fun and scrapping there was some work accomplished. The writer has never seen a Campus Day which was so well organized and one on which so much work was accomplished. The old rock pile, built with so much hard labor two years ago, was removed, the tennis court was put in splendid condition, the baseball diamond was skinned and rolled, and the track was made ready for the spring workouts. The dinner served by the girls was simply great, and fully satisfied the appetites which the boys had worked up for the occasion. The spirit shown by the students and faculty will cause the day to go down into history as the best Campus Day ever held in D. M. C. Some of those pictures on the other side of the page will bear evidence better than any type page.

Why not leave a Five Thousand Dollar estate to the College? Possibly you do not understand how you can do this without cle- priving your heirs. Do you know that you could carry a policy in favor of the Institution? Do you know that the cost of a Thousand Dollar Policy at age forty would be only One Dollar per month?
