Since then Vye seen man - a smiling morn Drowned out in evening ' s tears, And many a prince of the new-born days Lie dead with the weeks and years. And I knew in my heart That there must be a part And a share for the poor and forlorn, Some open space under equal skies With the haughty throng of the you-less I ' s. So I am I, I ' ll never be you, I ' ll only compare with myself, I ' ll rise with the ease of the heavenly breeze Above palace and power and pelf. And I know in my heart That mine is the art. The art of the artless and true That molds anew the mouldering highness Of slavish kings through the genuine I-ness. I breathe my new I to the rustling leaves, To the thundering ocean I shout it. It ' s the seal of my mission, the rock of my hope. And ne ' er for a moment I doubt it. And I know in my heart, I ' ve the compass and chart To the land of the golden sheaves. To the shining gold and the rich supply, To be gotten alone by the thrice great I. The threat ' ning abyss will I o ' erspan, I ' ll turn every magic key, I ' ll level to the plain the snow-capped peak, The demons I ' ll cast in the sea. And I know in my heart, I ' m not to be barred By oceans of waves, by galaxies of men, I ' ll rpach it yet, despite ages hoary. The loftier seat ' midst the kings of glory. But hark! and hark! What do I hear.? A voice from out of heaven, Not to your boastful self the crown Of glory can be given. And I know in my heart, I must make a new start. The shadowy You shall cease its sneer. When, ceasing to chase after shadowy highness, I ' ll take the real You into my I-ness. The I and the You! The You and the I! Oh the vexing puzzle! Oh the blessed confusion! I ' m one, I ' m the other, and I am both! No more of the selfish delusion! And I know in my heart, I shall never depart From the You, I won ' t sever the tie. Each of the other both kernel and shell. They ' re one, they ' re one wherever they dwell, On earth and in heaven, on earth and in hell. 24

Frank Huetter . . . Elgin, Illinois Frank To be doing is viands glorious task. ' — Anon. Frank is a recruit of 1923, is another of our indus- trious fellows, cautious and quiet, and consequently had many friends. Every Monday he returned from Elgin with renewed enthusiasm. We wonder... Walter Schadewald . Duluth, Minnesota Schady ' Elm Bark I it. Ed. ' 22, ' 23; Baseball ' 23; Schiller Cabinet ' 22. Seesi thou a man diligent in his business, he shall stand before kings. Schady never had much to say but when he did open his mouth, wisdom came forth. Ma Jong and baseball composed his recreation. Here is a clipping from his Diary: Feb. 29, 1923 — wind N.E., 35 mile gale; barometer 29.9; temperature 28 degrees; forecast, snow 6:00 A. M. Charles Binder Waterloo, Illinois Charlie Class Pres. ' 24; Orpheus ' 23, ' 24; Band ' 22, ' 23, ' 24; Baseball ' 22, Captain ' 23; Football ' 21, ' 22, ' 23, Captain ' 24; Basketball ' 22, Captain ' 23; Student Council Pres. ' 23, Rep. ' 24. i-f mind his kingdom, and his will his law. Cowper. Charlie had high ideals and lived up to them. He worked hard in the class room and the athletic field, was liked by all and will surely be of good influence to those with whom he comes in contact. Henry Damm . . ' . . Leroy, Texas Heinie Band ' 22, ' 23, Dir. ' 24; Orchestra ' 22, ' 23, ' 24; Quartette ' 22, ' 24; Orpheus ' 22, ' 2?, ' 24; Y. M. C. A. Cabinet ' 22; V. Pres. Class ' ' 22; Foot- ball ' 22. The man with a s?nile is the man worth while. As director of the band, Heinie can ' t be beat. With an ever-ready smile, a tongue framed to elocution, and a mind framed with ambition, there is no doubt but that he will become the idol of man)-. Arnold Schultz . . Indianapolis. Indiana Arnie Class Hist. ' 24; Elmhurst Ed. Keryx ' 22; Quartet ' 22, ' 23, ' 24; Orpheus ' 22, President ' 23, ' 24; Y. M. C. A. Sec. ' 22. His music in my heart I bore Long after it ivas heard no more. — JVords- worth. What would the quartet and glee club have done without his deep, rich, basso profundo voice? Everywhere that Arnie went Norm was sure to go — a perfect example of brotherh- love. Harold Pflug . Masslllon, Ohio Hap Class V. Pres. ' 24; College Quartet ' 22, ' 23, ' 24; Orpheus ' 22, Director ' 23, ' 24; V. Pres. Y. AI. C. A. ' 22; Song Leader ' 22, ' 23, ' 24; Student Council ' 23, ' 24; Orchestra ' 23, ' 24; Grumpy Music drives away Jrom the soul the dust of everyday life. His pleasing disposition won a place of high esteem for him. In musical actix ' ities as well as in student politics . Hap was an able leader. Many a girl will have reason to be jealous of his future wife. 26
