Her resourceful- ness, her cheerful energy, and her care for the happiness of those about her have given us much to admire and to imitate. Page fourteen MISS CLARA COMSTOCK A gift for friendship, with the sympathy and humor that it implies, enables Miss Corn- stock to find something in common with everyone. The hours spent with her are shining ones and will be pleasant memories of college days, and the old gym. Page fifteen Our Faculty Y their words you shall know them. Millard S. Markle, M. S., Ph. D. Biology May I please have your atten- tion for a moment? When I talk I always say something worth listen- ing to. Now, these bacteria will feed on your apple core and grow and multiply and replenish the earth, according to the Biblical in- junction. Harlow Lindley, A. M. History, Librarian Howdat o Now, class, get this ! Ninety-nine percent of the rural population was black — things looked pretty dark down there — Massatoosetts was, to all intents and purposes, part and parcel of the union ! Mary Adelaide Jay Ballard, A. B. Registrar Who is it knows our downmost grades ? M. A. J. B. Who is it knows the D ' s we ' ve made? M. A. J. B. Who helps us when all hope is o ' er, Makes two hours grow where one grew before, Who sends us the warning w e ' re looking for? M. A. J. B. Philip W. Furnas, A. M. English Your grammar is poor in that sentence. Who wrote ' Once upon a time so long ago that everybody has forgotten the date ' ? Tell where, when and why it was written and whether written with the left or right hand. Auretta M. Thomas, B. S. Mathematics and Spanish Appears quite feminine and happy — but it can ' t be true for she teaches Spanish and Math. Alexander C. Purdy, B. D., Ph.D. Biblical Literature Challenges our thinking every Sunday morning and on every other morning when we attend his classes. His en- thusiasm makes even the Syn- optic problem ever new and absorbing. Page sixteen Page seventeen Allen David Hole, A. M., Ph. D. Geology Curator of Museum Vice-President of College Messenger of Peace. Elgia Wittwer, A. B. French and Voice For Tuesday take seventy-three pages more in the text, read ' Jean Christophe, ' all ten volumes, and pre- pare a paper of three thousand words on ' My Summer Vacation ' . Joseph Herschel Coffin, M. S., Ph. D Philosophy and Ethics Objectively regarded, a specific instance of a prof who sometimes employs slang to serve his system of ends and purposes. Elsie Marshall, A. M. Home Economics The Food Administration requests that we save our prune pits for vege- table soups (and since Hoover almost came to Earlham once, we should feel peculiar pride in assisting him) — I think I ' ll not keep the class longer to- day. Arthur Matthew Charles, A. M. German and French Now, there seems to be a little diffi- culty on that point ; we may as well take time to go back to the etymology of the word. Page eighteen Page nineteen Edwin Morrison, M. S. Physics We could make the course in Physics hard if we wanted to, but the Chicago method develops true physicists with the scientific mind. Clara Comstock Women ' s Athletics Miss Comstock, the Women ' s Athletic Director reports some- thing almost every week. (See any issue of the Press.) And she firmly believes that grace- hoops are as important a form of athletics as football. Ray B. Mowe Men ' s Athletics Aside from having a pretty wife and being a good chaperon for parties, Coach Mowe knows how to use righteous indignation and holy wrath to turn out winning teams. Lewis T. Jones, A. M., Ph. D. History The campus was simply bristling with expectation, when, lo and behold, appeared a derby hat, a soft voice, and a fluent command of the English lan- guage. Such was Lewis T. Tones. Lindley Richard Dean, A.M., Ph.D. Classical Languages His interests are in the near and far east, Corinth and Gettysburg. Sometimes he shows us manuscripts from the former. Laura Cornelia Gaston Piano Somehow I mislaid the Sonata I was intending to play this morning, but I will give you a few facts on the life of the composer — a Chinese Jew of the fourth century. Page twenty Page twenty-one John Dougan Rea, A. M., Ph. D English Literature Professor Rea doesn ' t Like vers libre, so Perhaps he won ' t read this. If it were bound in vellum And looked old It would be bound To interest him. Aside from a few poets of The Stone Age, All the interesting people Lived in the sixteenth century — And most of them Are dead. Edna Johnson, A. M. Latin Give me that megaphone ! Why can ' t that man come to play practice? Now, I mean business. ( Appropriate ges- tures for all remarks.) Wm. Newby Trueblood, A.M. English Literature Now, Mr. Smith has the floor. Will you please talk that up for us, Mr. Smith? — You have the right idea. Any dis- agreement? Martha Doan, M. S., Sc. D. Chemistry, Dean of Women Now, isn ' t that very interesting, indeed ! That is to say, intellectually stimulating! President Higgins of Backwater University in Georgia, is a cousin (fourteen times removed) of a great aunt of mine who climbed the Matterhorn on October 3, 1891, at half after seven. Benjamin Blackiston Wroth, Ph. D. Chemistry Here ' s an instructor in science Who belongs to a dual alliance. To Bowen has Wroth Long plighted his troth. No ladv to him he ' ll affiance. Page twenty-two Page twenty-three Pres. David M. Edwards A.M., Ph.D. Let me urge upon you, with all diligence, with all sincerity, and with all earnestness — I say it again at the risk of becoming tedious — we are a little island of health in a raging sea of influ- enza. You may rise, please. Florence Long, M. S. Mathematics Oh, don ' t rush off in the heat of the day, without a blanket or an umbrella ! Cosinequalssine- thereforethesquareofthecotangen- tapproachesinfinity — is that per- fectly clear? Homer Morris, A. B. Political and Social Science, Dean of Men Dean of Bundy Water-fight Monday Rough-house Tuesday Penny-pitching Wednes- day Council meeting Thurs- day Apologies Friday Begin again Saturday Ready for Sunday Such is life for the Dean of Bundy. Ray P. Bowen, A. M., Ph. D. Romance Languages Malheureusement nous n ' avons plus de creme — Garcon! (to the waitress) take away this vile stuff and bring me some coffee ! As I was remarking, the chapels are perfectly absurd. Edwin Pritchard Trueblood, A. M. Public Speaking This is a great oppor- tunity for the student body to get behind the athletics of the college, and boost the new gym. Page twenty-four Page twenty-five Mrs. Hiss, A. B. Matron Being at Mrs. Hiss ' table means eating whipped cream with two spoons, and meeting all the celebrated guests who visit the college. She is indirectly re- sponsible for the number of cal- ories we eat, and so for our rosy cheeks and well-upholstered bones. Mrs. Wencke, R. N. College Nurse The sunniest smile and the most capable hands — and never too busy to listen to our tales of woe — even when writing letters to Italy. We envy her Captain who took her away from us. Bertha Miller Assistant Librarian As quiet as everyone ought to be in the library, and so patient she can take dictation from the head li- brarian. Paul Brown, A. M. Business Manager The time has come, The Business Manager said, To talk of Earlham eats — Of peaches and potato-cakes, Of fish-eyes, rhubarb, beets. Of how the cows are getting on, And toughest cuts of meats. O. E. Fulghum Master Accountant Like every business firm we find it necessary to establish office hours — and it would be easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for you to buy a pencil here out of those office hours.

Trueblood NIGHT had come with gentle step And spread her canopy of love above The gashed and sullen plain. Thick strewn and tossed In heaps the bodies lay, for War had reaped A field that day. One soldier ' s fixed, white face Stared upwards at the pitying moon, from where It rested on a comrade ' s knee. At length The blue eyes opened wide: — Hark, he said, I hear the bugles! — Strange! — What is ' t they say! — Peace on earth, Peace on earth, Peace On earth! Goodwill to men! — A quiver seized His frame; the light went out in those blue eyes, And Death came. His comrade laid him down ; And, looking long into the wide, deep dome Above him, thought he heard it, too — the long Lost notes, like Christmas bells, far-sounding from, The star-lit blue : Peace on earth, Peace On earth; Goodwill to men! Peace on earth Above a battlefield? Why not? Bends not The sky above the battlefield as sweet And blue as if it said : Peace ! Peace ! To all the din? Rings not the music of God ' s love, goodwill from ev ' ry sky of His, An undertone of never-ceasing chords, As ready to descend on battlefield As Sabbath morn, if but our babble stop Awhile? God forgive us that the noise We make has intervals so few through which Thy Peace! Peace! Love! Love! can reach our ears! MM Page thirtv Class of 1919 First Semester — President — Russell Titsworth Secretary — Loma Scott Second Semester — President — Leslie Meeks Secretary — Susie Meek Page thirty-two SUSIE MEEK, Shawnee, Oklahoma. A.B. — Household Economics and English. Y. W. C. A. 1-4, Cabinet 3, Vice-Pres. 4; Phoenix 1,2; Madrigal 1-4, Pres. 3 : Student Coun- cil 4; Chr. Proctor Comm. 4; Varsity Basketball 1, 3, 4; Varsity Hockey 3, 4; W. A. A. Exec. Comm. 3, 4; Chr. Hallowe ' en Comm. 4; Spanish Club 3; Archery 3. Ee-yah-whoop ! But Susie isn ' t a bit like that even if she is of the Sac and Fox tribe. She is even rather quiet until you know her. And when you do, be ready for most anything. Her voice is as golden as silence is said to be, and she ' the class favorite whether playing basketball or calling down freshmen in her official capacity as head proctor. LESLIE H. MEEKS. Thorntown, Indiana. A. B. — Latin and English. Varsity Basketball 1-4, Captain 2, 4; Varsity Football 2; Classical Club 2, 3, 4, Pres. 4; Ang- lican 4, Pres. 4; Pres. of Senior Class 4; Press Club 1-4; Honor Student. Poet, philosopher, basketball star, lady fusser, Lieutenant in the U. S. Army — and just an inch taller than Napoleon ! Speedy loves to refer to Bacchus, and in the midst of a conversation relat- ing to the price of eggs, to quote, If music be the food of love, play on! But there ' s nothing dreamy about the way he roars on the Coliseum floor, — though there is a touch of romance in the kiss he gives the ball as he throws a foul. LOMA GARLAND SCOTT, Knightstown, Indiana. B.S. — Botany and Household Economics. Science Club 1-4, Vice-Pres. 4; Phoenix 3; V. W. C. A. 1-4; Spanish Club 3; Polity 2-4; W. A. A. 3, 4; Vice-Pres. Class 2, Sec ' y 4; Annual Staff. (Graduates in August.) Loma ' s Hi-kidder ! and her twinkling eyes have kept us from taking too seriously her very positive opinions ; but we glory in her ability to say what is what even in the presence of digni- taries. She has preserved her youthfulness and her dainty complexion by refusing to serve on the Student Council but accepting any other job that came along. Page thirty-three RUBY ROSELYN MEDEARIS, Richmond, Indiana. A. B. — German and French. French Club 3, 3, Pres. 4. ' res. 3 ; Senior Social Comm. ; Treas. Day-dodger Girls 1, Sec ' y 2, Yice-Pres. When a feller needs a friend and has his trunk half packed to go home, Ruby, with a little in- terest and a good suggestion or two, revives his fainting program and gains his friendship for life. Constant association with other people ' s grades in the registrar ' s office has made Ruby care- ful that her own give a good impression. H. RICHARD BROWN, Straughn, Indiana. B. S. — Physics and Mathematics. Ionian 2, 3; Science Club 2, 3; Class Treasurer 4; Student Council 4; Baseball 3; Y. M. C. A. 1-4; Annual Staff. The purpose of Rub ' s life is to see the world clearly and to see it whole. With this in view, he lives in a continuous effort to keep his glasses in a state of speckless transparency, and he delves so deeply into philosophical research that for four years he has not come up for air — but occasionally peeps out to take snap-shot of some faculty member or put a prof ' s eye out. KATHERINE OUIGG, Richmond, Indiana. A. B. — English and French. French Club 2, 3; Spanish Club 3; Y. W. C. A. 1-4; W. A. A. Golf Manager 3. Xot all of us have been privileged to know Kate intimately, but the fortunates who have are strong for her. Her room, like a cafeteria, is open at all hours and serves any variety of eats. She has been kept busy for four years looking for a middle name compatible with Quigg. The fact that she can teach third graders to make bread crumbs, and makes chairs rock with laughter, proves that her dignity, which freezes Profs and scares freshies into fits, is only veneer. Page thirtv-four 2017334 LEEBERTA B. PATRICK, Columbus, Indiana. A. B. — Latin and English. Phoenix 1, 2; Classical Club 1, 2, 3, Sec ' y2; Y. W. C. A. 1-4, Cabinet 4; Class Secy 3; College Social Comm. 4; Sec ' y Student Council 2; Polity 3, 4; Senior Play Comm. ; Honor Student. In her gentle and inconspicuous way, Pat led the girls in their mad rush for honors and will pur- sue the classics at Bryn Mawr next year. She can be just as happy or just as peeved as any of us, but she shows it only in her eyes. Her room is tastefully decorated in oils, miniatures, water colors, photographs and snap-shots of a Jackie. RCSSELL B. TITSWORTH, Rushville, Indiana. A. B. — History and English. Science Club 1; Football 2, 3, 4; Basketball 1-4; Track 1-4, Capt. 3; Spanish Club 3, Pres. 3 ; Student Council 3, 4, Pres. 4 ; Interdorm Comm. 3. 4 ; Press Club 3, 4, Associate Editor 4 : College Social Comm. 4 ; Class Pres. 4 ; Senior Play Comm. ; Annual Staff. Had to join the Xavy to learn how to subdue water fights in Bundy. A face as handsome as an Arrow collar ad., and a tendency to come to social committee meetings when he says he will have won the girls ' hearts. Aristocratic moderation keeps him from excelling too much in any one line and makes him useful for special tables, track meets, basketball games, camp suppers, football trames and dances. Science Club 4; Interdorm Comm. 4: Hallowe ' en Comm. 4; W. A. A. 3; Chr. Class Social Comm. 4; Chr. College So- MABEL BINFORD, Carthage, Indiana A. B. — English and Botany. Y. W. C. A. 1-4; Phoenix 1. 4 Varsity Basketball 1 ; Yice-Pres cial Comm. 4; Honor Student. Binny is one of the few Senior girls not in .Madrigal, but no one who ever heard telling her room-mate at the other end of the dorm, My soul. I didn ' t do a thing on that quiz! could doubt that she might have made a howling success. She steps firmly along the path of knowledge, giggling all the way. Page thirty-five MARNA JOHNSON, Richmond, Indiana. A. B. — English and History. Y. W. C. A. 1-4; Polity 2, 3, 4; Classical Club 2, 3; Anglican 1, 2; Phoenix 2, 3. Mama has caught everything this year except a man, and who wants a man when one ' s father brings cherry cocktails twice a week? Besides, we happen to know that her middle name is In- dependence. Her one accomplishment is singing My Own Iona through her nose. She is the only Senior extant whom a Freshman has criticized for being too frivolous, and when she heard it she giggled ! ROBERT LOWELL PETRY, New Paris, Ohio. A.B. — Physics and History. Y. M. C. A. 1-4, Cabinet 4; Student Council 3; Polity 2, 3, 4, Pres. 4 Ionian 2, 3 ; First Honor Student. [ . ji Science Club 2, 3 ; Bob ' s color comes and goes, and is always doing one or the other ; but aside from that he is per- fectly steady, even poised at the top of the honor student pinnacle. He saves his innermost thoughts for exam papers, and the profs speak with care in his presence. He can think straight on any subject, even when addressing Polity, and his love for work is hardly equaled by Daddy Morrison himself. He goes to Haverford next year. RUTH LYBROOK WILLSON, Richmond, Indiana. A. B. — French and English. Monmouth College 1,2. But Ruth clave unto the 19ers and said, Entreat me not to leave you, for when you graduate I shall graduate and your class shall be my class. And she gleaned among our fields and found favor in our sight, inasmuch as she was gentle of manner and worked diligently. Page thirty-six WYNEMA BINFORD, Greenfield, Indiana. B. S. — Home Economics and Botany. Phoenix 1-4, Pres. 3; Science Club 4; Y. W C. A. 4, Treas. 4: Polity 4. Should a man-eating tiger appear at her door ' Xema would calmly say, Shoo! and chase it away with a whisk broom. She has never registered excitement except when told the red ants would eat her French flowers. A word to the grouchy — watch her shoulders and eyes laugh. Her ex- pressions vary from placidity in the nth power to laughter cubed. The top o ' the morning to her ! PAUL S. SMITH, Richmond, Indiana. A. B. — History and Geology. Polity 3 ; Day-dodger Social Comm. 3 : Y. M. C. A. Cabinet 4 ; Pres. Day-dodgers 4 ; De- bating Team 4 ; Honor Student. Paul started to join the Army, but the Kaiser found out about it and signed the armistice. Since this spectacular success, Paul has been running the Day-dodgers, his automobile, and his farm, like the hustler he is. His similarity to Patrick Henry will probably land him in the Indiana legislature some day. ALTHEA EMILY BROWX, Indianapolis, Indiana. A.B. — History and English. Y. W. C. A. 3, 4; Phoenix 3: Polity 3, 4; Student Council 4; Wilmington 1, Butler 2. Remembering the fate of the young lady from Lynn, Althea never dares take lemonade through a straw, and confesses to ' sympathy with Shylock in his insistence on the pound of flesh. Her eyes, her dimples, and her thirst for knowledge are on a large scale, her friendliness inex- haustible, and her conversation fluent on any subject from red ants to the League of Nations. Page thirty-seven CLARA SELLARS, Mooresville, Indiana. A. B.— Philosophy and Bible. Phoenix 1 ; Y. W. C. A. 1-4, Cabinet 4; Madrigal 4; W. A. A. 1-4, Hockey Mgr. 4; Hockey Varsity 3, 4; Student Council 2, 4, Pres. 4. Whether scampering after a hockey ball or on the trail of a bit of gossip, Chuff travels fast. If you wear a switch or beat your wife, she knows it. Her most constant companions are a frat pin and a pearl ring. Sh e has accomplished the impossible — being President of Student Government and a friend to everybody. LEWIS ARCHER TAYLOR, Russiaville, Indiana. B. S. — Physics and Mathematics. Ionian 3, 4, Pres. 4; Science Club 2, 3, 4, Pres. 3; Polity 2, 3, 4 ; Y. M. C. A. 1-4, Cabinet 3, Pres. 4; Student Council 3, 4; Press Club 3, 4, Managing Editor 4; Debating Team 4; Annual Staff ; Honor Student. The girls buy new hats with the seasons, but Snowball just develops another case! In addition to the indulging of his feminine proclivities, he has skipped among us, letting out war whoops, be- longing to most of the organizations of the school and heading not a few of them, working when everybody else had quit, and quite incidentally studying his way into the Honor Roll ! RUTH A. BROWN, Detroit, Michigan. A.B. — English and Philosophy. Y. W. C. A. 1-4, Cabinet 4; Class Secretary 2; Chr. Social Comm. 2, 3i Madrigal 1-4; Ger- man Club 1 ; W. A. A. Exec. Comm. 2, 4 ; Student Council 3 ; Anglican 3, 4 ; Hockey Varsity 3, 4; Sec ' y Student Affairs 4; Editor Annual 4. No, gentle reader, this isn ' t a member of the faculty ; neither is she as angelic as she looks. She ' s just the Annual Editor. Those gray hairs are the result of trying to find choice words to de- scribe the 57 varieties ' of Seniors. Ruth is happiest when doing grand opera or acting Tom Stout and rescuing some poor pussy from drowning in his troubles. She is a genius, but she won ' t let us mention it. Page thirty-eight ZOLA CLARK, Georgetown, Illinois. A. B. — English and History. Y. W. C. A. 1-4, Pres. 4, Cabinet 3; Polity 3, 4; Madrigal 4; W. A. A. 1-4, Exec. Comm. 2, College Social Comm. 1, 3; Class Sec ' y 1; Hockey Varsity 3, 4; Baseball Varsity 2; Basket- ball Varsity 2 ; College Song Leader 3 ; Annual Staff. Want something done ? Ask Zola. She can do anything from looking mad efficiently to effective- ly concealing a case. She ' s as peppy and full of thus ' m as her hair. It is said she once set a French paper afire by merely looking at it, and lots of people have been scorched by her glance. Next to her sizzling temper, and her effervescent giggle, we like her racy descriptions of herself. T. HOBART HOSKINS, Louisville, Kentucky. B.S, botany and Geology. Y. M. C. A. 1-4, Cabinet 2, Vice-Pres. 3; Y. M. Minstrel 3, 4; Press Club 1-4, Managing Ed- itor 3; Ionian 1-4, Pres. 4; Student Council 3, Interdorm Comm. 3; Science Club 1, 2; Ger- man Play Cast 2 ; Uay-dodger Social Comm. 4. Strawberry ' s bright hair, piercing eyes, and dashing manner have raised the general morale of our class since he has been with us. Like a hurricane he sweeps across the campus, and we all know that he ' ll get what he ' s after, be it a Press ad., a date or a special car for the Mission Kids. ELLA JENNETTE OSGOOD, Stillman Valley, Illinois. A. B. — English and Mathematics. Phoenix 1 ; Y. YV. C. A. 1-4, Cabinet 4; W. A. A. Exec. Comm. 4; Anglican 4; Annual Staff. Three things Ella will not have mentioned — her baby blue eyes, her cleverness and Professor Rea. She has a dislike for popular songs with squashy words and she hates to be called Sweetie. She complains that she can ' t talk, but we have learned that she doesn ' t express any opinion for fear of hurting somebody ' s feelings (and the opinion is there just the same). She is the best kind of a chum, unselfish and always companionable. Page thirty-nine ESTHER LORENA HODSON, Williamsburg, Indiana. A. B. — History and Education. Day-dodger 1-4; Classical Club 1, 2; Y. W C. A. 3, 4. Esther has the luck to live in a place famed for chicken dinners — think of that ! Her unusual conception of a college education leads her to spend much time in studying. She is another of our serious, exemplary Day-dodgers, a seeker after good grades, and a proof of the Biblical promise about seeking and finding. She is calm and clear as her blue eyes. JEROLD K. HOERNER, Lewisburg, Ohio. B. S. — Chemistry and Zoology. Press Club 1-4, Vice-Pres. 2, Pres. 3, 4, Editor of Press 4, Business Mgr. 4; Y. M. C. A. 1-4, Cabinet 3, 4; Science Club 1, 3, 4; Cheer Leader 3; Track E 3; Football E 3; Stu- dent Council 4 ; College Publicity Comm. 3, 4 ; Annual Staff. When work and buzzing clash, Then let buzzing go to smash is not P. J. ' s motto. For in his life, work and buzzing are blended in beautiful harmony. He studies pre-medics with a vengeance, business manages everything and helps run everything else. During the man famine this year, His work was as the work of ten. because the men were few. Yet — those pink cheeks, those dimples and that youthful freshness ! ELIZABETH JOHNSON MARVEL, Richmond, Indiana. A. B. — History and French. Madrigal 2, 3, 4 ; Spanish Club 3 ; French Club 3 ; Y. W. C. A. 3, 4 ; Senior Play Comm. 4 ; W. A. A. Exec. Comm. 2 ; Annual Staff. Oh, my dear! Thus Peg bursts into the room, drowns out everyone who is speaking, col- lapses on the bed, and tells of her latest escapade. For four years she has run a sort of accom- modation line from school to town and she has been the trial of four generations of Student Councils. If you need help, ask Peg. She ' ll promise it, and be better than her word — if she doesn ' t forget it. Page forty DORCAS ANNA HISS, Plainfield, Indiana. A. B. — English and German. Phoenix 1 ; Y. W. C. A. 1-4, Cabinet 4; Madrigal 3, 4; Chr. Social Comm. 1 ; W. A. A. So- cial Chr. 4; Orchestra 1.2. 3 ; Annual Staff 4; Treas. United War Work 4. Chairman of social committees and raiser of funds, Dorcas can compute to a square inch how many peanuts a class party can eat after having bean-loaf and fish eyes for dinner. From sell- ing apples for Geneva to pounding a typewriter, she is efficiency itself, but judging from the taste of her fudge, we think she ' ll not be a business woman. H. CECIL DENNIS, Richmond, Indiana. B. S. — Chemistry and Zoology. Advertising Manager Annual 4. Cecil spent his rhynie days at Winona where he learned to think, make good grades, be a busi- ness man and a daily buzzer simultaneously. A strange mixture of romance and reality he buzzes scientifically and goes after science with romantic warmth. VERA NEWSOM, Elizabethtown, Indiana. A. B. — English and Education. Y. W. C. A. 1, 2, 4; Phoenix, 1, 2; Polity 2; Summer School ' 18 and ' 19: Science Club 1. ( Graduates in August. ) With the dignity of a school marm and the fun of a school kid, Vera has been a valuable addition to our collection of Seniors. She has done some hard studying on some hard trunks in the lobby in order to graduate with us, but she has always managed to keep cheerful enough to laugh or to help tub her room-mate. Page forty-one MILDRED CUTTER, Richmond, Indiana. A.B. — English and History. Day-dodgers may come and Day-dodgers may go, as Tolstoi said; but Mildred stuck for four years, and played the rare part of a silent woman. Not having much inside dope en her personality, we quote what those who know her say: She ' s quiet, but she ' s nice, and she gets good grades. EVERETT ROWLAND HUNT, New Paris, Ohio. A. B.— English and Bible. Y. M. C. A. 1-4. Cabinet 4; Student Council 4; Class Treas. 4; Ionian 3; Polity 3; Treas. United War Work Campaign 4; Bundy Pressing Club 3, 4. A good sport and a preacher, Squeaky has demonstrated his versatility by acting Shakespeare ' s Great Adventure on Saturday night and occupying the pulpit Sunday morning. He thinks people should be ruled by love and says so in his soft, high pitched voice. His Quiet hours, fellows, strikes terror in every heart, but all Bundy inmates like and respect him in spite of his sternness. HAZEL M. DIXON, Plainfield, Indiana. A. B. — History and English. Y. W. C. A. 3, 4; Phoenix 3, 4; Science 3 ; Madrigal 3, 4; Classical Club 4; Polity 3, 4; Stu- dent Volunteer 4; Penn College 1, 2. Hazel (and Prexy) came from Penn in our Junior year; it is well to remember this, since she is proud of her origin. What an example of the courage of faith, in the way she invites in a party for fudge, and then unostentatiously slips out to borrow milk, butter, sugar and cocoa ! Page forty-two HUBERT SMITH, West Alexandria, Ohio. A.B. — History and Mathematics. Day-dodger. ' It is not growing like a tree In bulk doth make man better be ; In small proportions we just beauties see, And in small measures life may perfect be. NORENE ROBERTS, Richmond, Indiana. A. B . — English and History. Heidelberg College 1-3. Silently slipped in during our last year, silently stole to classes, and silently sped away. The only honest-to-goodness fact we know about her is that she has a case on Margaret Duvall. E. L. OUTLAXD, Richmond, Indiana. A. B. — History and Mathematics. Orchestra 1,2; Band 3; Day-dodger Play Cast 1, 2, 3; Public Speaking Dep ' t Play 2; Day- dodger Men ' s Student Government 2. Lee likes to fool some of the people all of the time by appearing carefree and independent. But his ambition and energy are evident in his pursuit of work, music, and Davis. He is at his best in the limelight, and even entertained his officers in camp — but don ' t mention it to him. Page forty-three RICHARD LYLE POWER, Milroy, Indiana. A. B. — Botany and English. Y. M. C. A. 1-4, Cabinet 3; Student Council 3, 4, Interdorm Comm. 3, 4; Science Club 2; Press Club 2-4, Adv. Mgr. 3; Editor The Press 4; College Social Comm. 3, 4; Class Pres. 2 ; Anglican 3, 4. I reserve the privilege of withdrawing the following statements if I find that they are incorrect. Pow goes by the name of Lyle, out of respect to his family who named him. Youse guys and youse girls know his admiration for Abraham Martin and Harlow Lindley, and his abandoned manner of applause for chapel speakers and birthday cakes. He wasn ' t so keen about army life, but now that the war is over and he is back among the large colleges and universities, Richard is himself asrain. AILSA CRAIG, Thorntown, Indiana. A.B. — Education and English. Madrigal 4: Vice-Pres. Class 4; Phoenix 4; Y. W. C. A. 4; Senior Basketball Team 4; Whittier 3. In theological terms Ailsa ' s attribute is pep ; her mode of self -manifestation is cute, and she is infinitely small. Her purposefulness is evident in the Universe, and to drop the theological, she gets what she goes after with the concentrated energy of a mosquito. FRANK J. HILL, Thorntown, Indiana. B.

No one who has lived in that residential edifice this year can any longer entertain a doubt of the efficacy of this means of preserving the peace. Student Council members always pose in a solemn way for their picture, but they don ' t mean anything by it. Sometimes they call a fellow up and talk to him because he is fresh, but they don ' t mean anything by that either. It ' s just for his own good and they tell him so. The Council is supposed to referee water fights and Soph-Frosh combats, but they always seem to be pulled off unexpectedly. The only penal code is based on tradition and precedent, and the rule that decrees quiet hours from 12 mid- night until 6:30 a. m. is the only one strictly enforced. The Student Council itself is a great experience for both members and others and the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow wouldn ' t buy it from us. Page fifty-four Earlham Hall Student Government President — Clara Sellars Secretary — Elma Henby In this Quaker Experiment in Government the Student Council is the Repre- sentative Body which takes all the knocks, tries to see both Faculty and Student view points and at the same time keep at peace with all men. Occasionally there are late hour candle-light seances which end with instructions to the Secretary to deliver an auspicious looking envelope containing de-buzzing in- formation. Rules are made by popular vote and each year all Earlham Hall inhabitants sign the Constitution, are given a Blue Book, which they commit to memory (??), and go on their way rejoicing — that Student Government is a reality. Page fifty-five Young Men ' s Christian Association President — Lewis A. Taylor Secretary — Milton Hadley Faculty Advisor — Dr. Alexander C. Pltkdy. The best tribute I have ever heard given to the Earlham Y. M. C. A. was made some time ago by a Jew. I come to Earlham, he said, because I can be a better Jew here than in any school I know. It is the spiritual atmosphere of the place em- bodied in the Christian Association, with its ideals and principles, that makes this col- lege different, and makes whoever lives in it more of a man. That is the business of the Y. M. C. A. It is the most inclusive organization on the campus, because it believes that a man ' s religion touches every phase of his life. It tries to train men in the practice of applying the principles of Christianity, be it in- dividual, social or international. The loss of men and the uncertainty of war-times handicapped the work of the Y this year, but the growing spirit of serious purpose, kindled by the war, gave its ideals a tremendous grip on the men in college. A number of achievements marks the progress of the year — a Bible study campaign, a share in the United War Work Cam- paign, a series of special meetings which lifted the life of the student body to a higher plane. Page fifty-six Young Women ' s Christian Association President — Zola Clark Secretary — Mildred Henley Faculty Advisor — Dr. Martha Doan To the incoming Freshman the Y. W. stands for an introductory letter received during the summer ; a hand-book containing much information and many do ' s and don ' ts for guide posts ; a friendly smile when the train reaches the campus, and a bul- letin board on which are posted unintelligible notices about cabinet meetings and E. C. S. S. But even the Freshman soon learns that the Y. W. is bigger than any one of these and that its work is not bounded by its missionary contributions nor the tooth paste and apples which the Geneva Committee sells at wholesale prices, — but that through all its committees and enterprises the Y. W. seeks to make the religion of the Earlham girl a practical, natural part of her life.

What club would not thrive with such a subject, this year of all years, even though it has no membership roll and meets in- formally during buzzing hours? The plan of the club has been to develop International thinking, to help its mem- bers to appreciate the steps from anarchy to organization, and from war to lasting peace and permanent reconstruction. Faculty members shared their ideas on these topics during the quarantine, and during the second semester much first-hand information has been given us by natives of Japan, China and India and visitors from France and Hawaii. Each representative has known his own phase of the world question and al- though the ideas presented have ranged from the practical and prosaic to the visionary and revolutionary, they have shown common causes which make the world a neigh- borhood and may make it a brotherhood. Page fifty-eight Science Club First Semester- President— Secretary— Emil Kenyon Westine Lietzman Second Semester — President — Joseph Maddox Secretary — Mable Mover Science Club is the alluring organization which everyone joins in the fall and then forgets until the camp supper in the spring. The few of scientific bent who do remem- ber that it meets every two weeks find some very enjoyable and entertaining, though scientific, talks. To the novice and the unsophisticated it seems quite uncanny to discuss so calmly the Chemical Application of the Rare Earth Metals, Hydrogenation and Catalusis, or Intelligence without Brains ; but of course the science you never studied is always apt to be rather dry, and just here is brought out the purpose of the club — to bring about the correlation between the sciences and to develop a speaking acquaintance in the whole scientific world. Page fifty-nine Ionian Literary Society First Semester — President — Lewis A. Taylor Secretary — Russell Davis Second Semester — President — Hobart Hoskixs Secretary — Howard Mills Roberts ' Rules of Order prevail at the meetings of Ionian Literary Society, unless the president overrules them or the members disclaim them by a full rising vote. Ionian was the pioneer organization at Earlham and from the time of its advent sev- eral decades ago has had a definite place among the college clubs. Absolute satisfaction is guaranteed with all meetings or your money is returned. Special solos have been the feature of the programs this semester and in the absence of an organized glee club, Ionian has been the scene of much musical merriment. It offers courses in Parliamentary drill, extempore speaking, and Short Cuts to Suc- cess that are not duplicated elsewhere on the campus. Though the work of Ionian has been narrowed and its membership limited by many newer organizations, its day of usefulness is not past and many Earlhamites in years to come will be able to speak in public, to act with diplomacy or to lead Test Tube Orchestras because of their previous experience in Ionian. Page sixty Phoenix Band First Semester — President — Wynema Bin ford Secretary — Elm a Henby Second Semester — President — Bessie Reagan Secretary — Helen Parker Senior Class party will be held in Phoenix Hall, but Phoenix does more than keep a rendezvous for pleasure seeking crowds. Every Wednesday evening- great volumes of music are (partially) held within its four walls and on Friday night it pre- sents its most Phoenician scenes. Free instruction is given in gavel wielding and in carrying through a motion with an amendment to its amendment without losing your head, your temper or the original motion. Phoenix is broad in scope to say the least ; you may be instructed by a debate on, Which is greater, Charlie Chaplin or Edison? ' ' or see a live movie on The Follies of Fashion. If you ever have an original idea, you may be sure of an opportunity to dramatize it. Each year the Phoenix bud returns to train future Queens of Sheba and Tean- nette Rankins and to send forth members equipped to head Women ' s Clubs or start High School Literarv Societies. Page sixty-one Press Club Editor-in-Chiefs -Lyle Power President — Jerold K. Hoerner Secretary — Lewis A. Taylor The Earlham Press is the medium through which the world is apprised of the news of college socials, the high character of the new faculty members, the latest word from the college dairy, the first thud of the football heard on Reid Field and the perennial swish-swish of the Junior cords. This manifestation of the spirit of jour- nalism is promoted by an organization calling itself The Earlham Press Club. For almost a decade this organization has kept a careful record of all the college happen- ings, not to mention the fact that it always has on hand up-to-date statistics regarding the number of dress-suits in the college community which will be available for its annual banquet. The club ' s aim, first and last, is to boost Earlham; and because it sticks closely to that purpose and goes about it in a business-like way, with a genuine fraternal spirit, the Press Club probably has more influence on the campus than any other group. Press Club members are loyal to their organization. With some difficulty and some midnight oil six survivors of the club put out the paper this fall and held the line until re-enforcements came. Page sixty-two Madrigal Club Director — Elgia Wittwer President — Juanita Ballard Secretary— Bernice Fricker Madrigal sings. It sings because it likes to sing. And incidentally others than those whose names are on its membership roll like it to sing. But Madrigal is very ex- clusive, and only on rare, very rare, occasions will it consent to being seen and heard in public. It can ' t take the time. It is getting ready for the real event, the climax of the year, when a whole evening is devoted to the Madrigal Club, for them to use just as they please. They usually sing. Sometimes they go over in town and sing. It was reported that once they even left the city to sing. Perhaps that was an especially bad year. But they always take the evening. And everybody who hears them wants them to take the evening. They wish they would take two, for Madrigal is always good, whether it gives a Spanish cantata, a Japanese tea party or just singing. Sometimes Madrigal gets someone else to sing with them just to show the contrast, but it isn ' t necessary, for the Madrigal Club from the date of its birth as a college organization has met with approval and success and will continue to sing. Page sixty-three Ye Anglican Club President — Leslie Meeks Secretary — Ruth Brown Among other things that came back to normal after the signing of the Armistice was Ye Anglican Club. Now Ye Anglican Club is an unusual organization. It isn ' t sure who belongs to it; it has dues but the members never pay them; it makes very definite rules about the time for its meetings but is careful never to meet at that time ; it is the only organization on the campus boasting a Sergeant-at-Arms. Also some of its members can write Greek more legibly than English. Last year Ye Anglican Club induced Prof. William Lyon Phelps, of Yale, to come to Earlham to make an address, and hoped to entice some Eastern celebrity into the wooly West this year. But on ac- count of the fullness of the college calendar the conspiracy was abandoned. Though Anglican is reputed to be literary its members have a good time even when they read original work or just pose for their photographs. Page sixty-four Classical Club First Semester — President — Katherine Haviland Secretary — Lorene Thompson Second Semester — President — Leslie Meeks Secretary — Randolph Cox There are those who have been prone to speak of the Classical Club disparag- ingly, using juvenal terms, Natio Comoeda est. But in its assiduity in finding out how much papyrus was used in making a scroll, and how many obols Charon collected daily in ferrying the Manes over the Styx, the club has shown itself a serious and con- scientious organization. It has spent the year in making a careful study of various subjects pertaining to the Graeco-Roman life and literature. The topic on which most stress was laid was the geography and archaeology of ancient Greece and Italy. Photographs of the places studied, which Dr. Lindley R. Dean of the Classical Department had taken, were most valuable in this work. Page sixty-five Oratory and Debate Of front-rank importance among the various college activities are those of public speaking. Although seri- ously restricted this year, the work in its limited degree was highly successful. Owing to the war the regular State Oratorical Contest was not held, but the local con- test was staged, being won by R. Bryan Michener, ' 22, with an oration on Military Training in the Public Schools. The semi-annual extempore speaking contest was won by Bessie Buell, ' 22, the second time in its his- tory that a girl ' s name has been placed on the extempore cup. The only intercollegiate battles in the public speak- ing field this year were the debates. Although Albion refused to meet us, we joined with Wabash and Butler in a triangular debate on the question, Resolved, That the Employee, as Such, Should Have An Effective Rep- resentation in the Management of Industry. In these debates the affirmative team, composed of Lewis Taylor, Kent Morse and Ralph Nicholson, won a unanimous vic- tory from the Wabash negative before the home audience. The negative team, made up of John George Baker, Paul Smith and Julius Tietz, lost to the Butler affirmative at Irvington by a 2 to 1 vote (according to the judges ' de- cision). Among the six men comprising these teams only two graduate this spring, which leaves bright pros- pects for oratorical and debating activities next year, especially if Snyder, Sumner Mills and Gordon return. The Debating Teams Page sixty-six £T r sj L-T r 3 r U Page sixty-seven The Day Student Organization President — Paul Smith Secretary-Treasurer — Elsie Smith Chr. Social Committee — Carolyn Bradley The Day Student Organization cannot be given space commensurate with the noise and activities for which it is responsible. It is one of the most wide-awake groups of the college and holds high rank in athletic, social, religious, public speaking and class- room activities. Every college project has its fine support. This year they have con- tributed liberally to various Red Cross and War Work Funds, not to mention the donation of a one hundred dollar Liberty Bond toward the redecoration of the chapel. During the first part of the year the war took almost all the boys, and many of the girls left college for business school, preparatory to doing war work. It was somewhat of a shock to discover, upon returning from the front, that the college (and the college janitor) had confiscated the D. D. boys ' den, and was using its sacred recesses as a sanctum for the above named officer. Miss Edna Johnson bequeathed her class-room to be used by the boys as a foster home for daylight hours, and now it contains, at any time of day, blackboard art work, a Magna Charta, sev- eral bits of antique furniture, loud laughter, pictures of classic scenes and ages, a victrola and some Day Dodger boys. Page sixty-eight The girls continue to dwell in their cabaret-like apartments in the south end of Lindley, with music, eating and dancing at all hours. It is a part of the college ed- ucation of every D. D. girl to be able to study calculus or history to the strains of Hindustan or How You Goin ' To Keep ' Em? The boys and girls are unanimously in favor of each other, and the social life strengthens this all-persistent preference — -e. g., sometimes the girls give the boys a feed and they live for weeks in happy retrospect. There have been two splendid socials in the Community House of the West Richmond Friends Church and in the spring the annual combination camp supper and auto ride was given. There is nothing lethargic about the interest the D. D. ' s take in their good times together. They enjoy everything to the limit and are full of the lively interest we in- formally call pep. Every spring, too, a play is presented and is always enthusiastically received. This year, Fanny and the Servant Problem had a one-night run and introduced several stars to the stage world. Rah for the D. D. ' s, Rah for the D. D. ' s, Rah for the D. D. ' s, Rah ! Although not pretty, they ' re wise and witty, As full of fun as anyone ; They ' re the pride of old E. C. Rah for the D. D. ' s, Rah! Rah for the D. D. ' s. Rah for the D. D. ' s, Rah for the D. D. ' s, Rah ! They keep their pep with a lively step, They bring their lunch ; they ' re a big fine bunch In their days at old E. C. Rah for the D. D. ' s, Rah ! Fanny and the Servant Problem. Page sixty-nine Our Extension Work in France We have lent so many of our number to the Reconstruction Work during the last two years that we are beginning to feel that it belongs to us in a peculiar way and that we have a common share in it. Page seventy Page seventy-one Men ' s Athletics RAY B. MOWE, Head Coach Coach Mowe came to Earlham in the middle of the basketball season last year and immediately made him- self so indispensable that we couldn ' t afford to let him get away. With his wide experience in college and professional sports he has advanced Earlham to the front in collegiate athletic circles. We expect his work to be one of the biggest factors in promoting the Greater Earlham which is coming. Page seventy-two The Earlham Double E Club President — Herbert Carey Secretary-Treasurer — Cyril Pitts Just as the collegiate scientists enjoy the group research of their favorite studies and just as the song- sters love to assemble and sing, so do those whose interests are imbedded in the school ' s athletics have a passion to gather together for mutual betterment and to indulge in their pet hobby. Thus it came about that men who had won a letter in at least two different major branches of col- lege athletics, one of which was either football or basketball, assembled this spring and permanently re- organized the Double E Club, which had existed once before for a few years. By so doing they established an organization whose primary objective is the further- ing of the athletic interests of Earlham College and an active participation in movements that aid the general progress and welfare of the school. Yell-Leader Baker Page seventy-three Football This year ' s football season was one of the most successful that Earlham has had for several years, in spite of the fact that the Maroon and White Varsity did not win a single game. Neither did they lose a game. For there was neither a varsity team nor any intercollegiate contests. Due to war conditions and the general flu epidemic, it was impossible to schedule games with other schools. Nevertheless, the good old game of football was not neglected. When it became apparent that no intercollegiate games could be played, an intermural schedule was arranged. Two squads were organized, the Red and White and the Blue and White, the former team, captained by Tits- worth, winning two of the series of three games played. One of the strongest arguments in opposition to interscholastic athletics is that while developing a few individuals to perfection, such a system neglects the general student body. Such a condition did not exist last season. Every individual, who was physically capable, was required to take football or its equivalent in some other sport. As a result the football squad was large. This general participation in the one sport, combined with the lessons men can learn only on the gridiron, the friend- ships formed and the spirit of good fellowship and physical well-being developed there, was the big factor in making the 1918 football season a big success. Some Football Snaps Page seventy-four Basketball Earlham ' s basketball team this year was the talk of the state. When it unwound itself into action the best teams had to stand around and watch it go. As Coach Mowe said : No team in the state could stop them when they were going right. They stopped themselves. ' ' Only the flu outbreak kept us from the championship and we would have had it then if Wabash had dared to meet us.

Floor The fact that Speedy has made four E ' s in bas- ketball and captained the team, this year for the second time speaks for itself of the real man he is at this game. Cyril Pitts, 20, Richmond, Ind. Cy. Guard. Guard, forward, center, Cy plays them all with equal grace and efficiency. His versatility and eye for the basket has made him twice a member of the team. Raymond Johnson, ' 21, Thorntown, Ind. Back Guard. Critics picked him as the best back guard in the state, and all agree that he is a bulwark of strength in keeping opponents ' scores at minimum. We smile at his facial expressions and corpulent body, but we know he is a man among men from the fact that his comrades have chosen him to captain them next year. Herbert Carey, ' 21, Fairmount, Ind. Herb. Center. Herb ' s biggest feature is his progressive improve- ment. This is his second year on the squad and he has registered a regular berth. His length of arm is a per- manent assurance of the tip and we are all glad he is only a Sophomore. Fonzo Lawler, ' 21, Thorntown, Ind. Fonz. Forward. An unquestioned member of the mythical I. C. A. L. team and for two years a member of Earlham ' s varsity five, Fonzo is living up to Thorntown standards. He knew the game, had more punch and could break quicker than any other one on the team. Piesides his good spirit did much to engender confidence in the rest. Orville Hall, ' 21, Thorntown, Ind. Orv. Forward. Orv is a good fellow and a steady, consistent, con- scientious player. He was a member of Thorntown ' s ' 15 Champs and received honorable mention for the all- state I. C. A. L. team. This is his first year on the Earl- ham varsity and we ' re glad he changed his mind about schools. Page seventy-six Clark Larsh, ' 22, Thorntown, Ind. Hi. Center. Hi is another historic member of that ' IS champ team at Thorntown, and is endowed with the makin ' s of a basketball player and athlete in general. He was only in part of the season and will be heard from later. Howard Mills, ' 20, Indianapolis, Ind. Forward. Howard is some old war horse. Always in the scrap from start to finish doing his best. This is his first sea- son at college basketball and, although he did not make varsity, he should be good material for next year. Eugene Raiford, ' 20, Ivor, A a. Virginny. Guard. When Speedy got diphtheria, Coach Mowe needed anotner floor guard, but he didn ' t have to look far. Vir- ginny was there and he delivered the goods gamely, making his first letter in basketball, which, added to his various other athletic honors, makes him a four letter Charles Robinson, ' 22, Richmond, Ind. Robby. Forward. Charlie hails from Richmond High and is full of growth and possibilities. He came out the whole season and took a lively interest in helping make the varsity what it was. For this year Charlie was a bit young, but just you wait Russell Titsworth, ' 19, Rushville, Ind. Tom. Guard. Talk about the martyrdom of Arnold Von Winkleried. How about this man : four long, hard seasons with the scrubs ; unhonored and unsung. Titsworth has shown real Earlham spirit, and, although he never won his letter in basketball, surely deserves honorable mention along with the others. Winston Huff, ' 22, Fountain City, Ind. Winnie. Forward. Winnie was as true to practice as Old Faithful is to spouting. Willing and steady as he is, he has chances of doing some real good in basketball in seasons to come.

The other is to weigh the benefits which have come to the various individuals as a result of their training. Looking at the situation from either of these view points, the track season may be expected to be successful. Of the two home meets, Earlham won from Cincinnati University, and lost to Franklin by only a small margin. The I. C. A. L. at Franklin is the only away-from-home meet this season. As for predictions concerning the I. C. A. L. we ' ll have to admit that we have a good team. And what is better, we can look forward at least two years and predict a good team., for mluch of this year ' s material is in the Sophomore and Freshman classes. There is one outstanding weakness and that is the lack of first place runners. If this deficiency can be remedied Earlham will resume its place of track supremacy as in the old days of Conrad, Brown and White.

Baseball This year as well as last baseball activities have been handicapped by war condi- tions and the lack of experienced players. Although several of last year ' s letter men are back we are still at a disadvantage for they only started in the game last year. A baseball team cannot be made in two short spring seasons. In looking into the future with more men and keener competition we may expect the national game to assume its old place of importance in Earlham athletics. f V- : Page eighty An Athletic Crasy-Quilt Page eighty-one Women ' s Athletic Association W.

Page eighty-nine Love Out-of-Doors A glade, a tree, a seat for two ; The grass around is green, Beyond the little circle true, The forest is a screen ; And here and there, just breaking through. The rising moon is seen. Why waits he thus, this eve of Spring? Why ask me to declare? Think you he hears the robins sing? He waits a maiden fair, As graceful and as sweet a thing As ever breathed the air. A thousand buds their odors fling Upon the balmy air ; Within the woods the robins sing And pour a music rare Upon the sense, for it is Spring, And everything is fair. And there she comes, in simple grace. An ever glad surprise — The moonlight on her face And in her modest eyes, Which ever bear the changing trace Of the color of the skies. A slender youth is standing there, Just where the shadows fall ; His pose, his mein, his eager air, His handsome face, and all, Proclaim a nature true and fair. As well as woodman tall. And waits he now ? no, no ; Bend down, ye boughs, bend down, And hide from sight, by bending low, This lover ' s love profound, For none but lovers e ' er shall know This paradise that ' s found. — William Newby Truedlood.
