STRIVE ADVANCE SUCCEED Ivy Day Poem The sinking sun shone softly o ' er a happy jubilee, It turned to gold, the memories old, till all were fair to see, And students, resting from their toil, called greetings cheerily From friend to friend on Ivy day. They watched with loving eyes four friends that they loved well, And listened to their laughter, as, the trowel rose and fell, Planting deep an Ivy root ' neath a a grassy knoll. For friends were friends on Ivy day. Higher yet and higher grows this Ivy vine; Keeping e ' er before our friends our memories fine, As up and up our ideals climb; For we crave the best on Ivy day. -HELEN ROLLINSON.

Continued from Front Cover (Inside) Wednesday, December 1. The class, or rather the boys of the class, chose the Hoosier Beauty Rose as class flower. After they had voted on the flower Miss Knox asked how many had ever seen the flower and, just think four or five had seen it before. Tuesday, December 7. We chose our class pin, designed by Jacob Weis. Tuesday, January 5. On Tuesday, not Wednesday, another surprise faced the class. The newly elected vice president took charge of the meeting until we elected a president. This time the honor fell to Howard Murphy. The girls, thinking the boys chose the class flower, concluded that they would choose the president. They did a good piece of work, too, for Howard ' s scholarship alone would award him the , presidency. It was now time for the secretary and treasurer to resign, but they surprised us and did not. Tuesday, February 1. There were some more class officers elected. Herbert Rennard, because of his wonderful imagination, was chosen as class prophet. We later found out that our choice was an extra good one, as Herbert Is a Prince Who Learned Everything Out of Books. Wednesday, February 9. The class being a large and rich one had many gifts and properties to dispose of, so they requested Robert Ross, as will maker, to give them away as he sees fit. Millard Mogg, who is noted for his generosity and extraordinary laugh, was elected giftorian, to look after the needs of our members. Thursday, February 17. To prove that the officers which the class had elected were the best that could be had, they were all re-elected. Wednesday, February 23. The class wanted something to work for and chose Strive, Advance, Succeed, as class motto. After displaying his wonder- ful ability as yell leader Kurt Asperger was elected to lead yells for our class. A beautiful arm band, which was designed by Theodore Brennen, was chosen at this meeting. Tuesday, March 8. One of the main activities of the class was the taking of the pictures. Of course every one wanted to be as good looking as possible, so Bretzman, who is noted for flattering people, was chosen as class photographer. Every one was put to work, for our Ivy day was drawing near. April 11. All plans were completed and one of the best Ivy daysi Manual has ever seen was staged. The plan was original and worked out very well. Everything was ideal, even the weather. The committee in charge was Miss Wheeler, Lucy Court, Helen Rollinson and Helen Ledig. May 11 and 12. True to our usual high class form wie selected two Spanish plays of the well-known authors, Jacinto Benavente and Quinteros Brothers. The plays were, A Bright Morning, a lovely comedy, and, A Prince Who Learned Everything Out of Books. Lucy Court and Harold Deupree won distinction for themselves by their skillful disguise. We also wish to call your attention to our class, which has the honor of claiming four beauties, which we will back against the whole world of beauties. -RUTH FEHR.
