In addition to the fragmentary survey of the year, we have endeavored, in the Histor- ical Section, to trace the growth of Goshen, and record some of the traditions which would soon have been forgotten. With the hope that our efforts may serve to awaken in the hearts of those who have gone before, some memories of their own col- lege days; that it may arouse a feeling of re- gret in the hearts of the Seniors; that it may call forth a new note of pride and loyalty in all underclassmen, we present this, the 1 920 aple Leaf. :Mi iC i THE MAPLE LEAF } ' he r aple Leaf Staff u M Editor-in-Chief - dissociate Editor - jJssociate Editor Photographer - - Jlrtist - - - Jlrtist - - - - Local Editor - Humor Editor - business Manager Sales Manager Stenographer Vernon D.

As we look back over the year and compare it with former ears we feel that Goshen College has reached an- other remarkable milestone in its hist(ir . ( )ur attendance last fall was greater than any other fall Term in the history of the school. For the past few years ( ioshen as well as all other col- leges and uni ersities was greatly affected by the conditions of the world. Last fall, however, conditions were more nearly normal and many former students returned to resume their ork and man - new ones cast their lot with us. u n At the beginning of the Fall Term, President H. F. Reist took up his duties as president of the College, succeeding President G. J. Lapp, who resigned to resume his work in the mission held. President Reist has shown us that he is a worthy jM 3SC f? VA A i THE MAPLE LEAF 1 man ami one wliu has the interests of the College at heart. He has won the respect of both the students and the faculty. The increase in attendance necessitated an increase in the faculty. Mr. Lehman, who for the ear previous had been teaching in Purdue, came back to his old position in the Mathematics Department. All the students who knew him welcomed him into our midst, for his absence has proved more and more his real worth. Prof. J. C. Meyer, a former graduate, took Prof. W. B. Weaver ' s place as professor of Historv and Political Science. His training at Indiana and Har- vard, together with his experience in reconstruction work in France during the war makes him well fitted for his work. Prof. Weaver was transferred to the Bible Department and now gives his time exclusivel ' to Bible. Miss Martin, after spending a year in Columbia, returned to take up her work in the Normal Department. Mrs. Ruth Blosser-Miller, a former graduate of Goshen and a recent student of Aloody Institute, was another addition to the facult)-. She taught Academy English the past year. Prof. C. B. Blosser, who was elected Dean of the school, took up the duties in that capacit}- at the beginning of the year. In addition to these duties he became the new head of the Agriculture Department. During the Winter Term the Special Short Course attracted a great many students who find it impossible to come thruout the entire year. Prof. J. R. Allgyer, a graduate of Goshen College and Ohio State University, was secured to teach in the Agriculture Department, and President Reist taught a Bible Course. Special courses in Home Economics were oiTered to accommodate these students. Both dormitories and all available rooming houses were filled to their capacit -. During the Winter Term Prof. Fisher, head of the Department of Philosophy and Education, left with a Reconstruction Unit for Europe. Altho he was greatly missed, we know that thru his investigation and travel the College will be bene- fited. He is expected to resume his work here in the fall. It was also during the ' inter Term that President Reist was forced, on account of failing health, to leave his duties as President of the College and take a complete rest. He left February 23rd, and during his absence Prof. Detweiler was chosen as Acting President. It has been a policv among educators to make all educational institutions philanthropic institutions. In order to make up annual deficits it is necessary to endow the institutions. If it were not for this policy many students would be unable to go to college. For the jjast few years Goshen College has been working hard to secure its endowment. Last year Prof. Detweiler was on the field the entire summer and expects to go again the latter part of the school year. He has been ery successful in his work. Altho the endowment was not reached it was thru his solicitation that (ioshen College could become a standard school. I M Sg C Euiht,;,, Va n ki i THE MAPLE LEAF I The big event oi the year f(ir the College was the standavtlizatidn. On Fri- da}-, February loth, our school received the hapiiy news that the State B(jard had put us on its list of standard colleges. Altho the scholarship of (jur College had been recognized b other institutions, yet the graduates had difliculty in securing the highest salaries. Since it has become standard all present and future grad- uates will be recognized li all ediicational institutions and wdl ha e greater ojii or- tunities for ser ice. The Faculty and lloaril of I ' .ducation know that this means added responsibility. The - ai ' e not only satisfied to keep it a standard school but intend to make such im]iro emeuts that will make a bigger and better ( ioshen College. Plans are being made to build a gxmnasium and a men ' s dormitory. The present gym has long been too small and a new dormitor ' is needed also as man ' of the men have had to li e in pri ate Ikjuics because of the inadecpiate rooming facilities. The outlook for ( i(3shen ne ' er was brighter and we feel sure that as she con- tinues to grow, her contribution to the world will become greater and greater. :Mi - ;s ic .

It is (Hfficuh to depict those characters we most admire. It is such with the man who is our President. Akho he has been with us less than a year, he has won the united respect of the h ' aculty and the students. His earnest desire to he of ser ice to the students and the school has brot t(.) him the united sujiport of Goshen College and her constituenc}-. President Reist is always considerate of the wishes of others, }et he is a man of con iction and always does what he considers to be the best. We have all benefited by the association with President Reist ; we have met another Christian gentleman, and he has given us inspiration to live our best. I ' nder his leadership, a new era of growth has been inaugurated at Goshen College and the future promises the best for the success of our school. :mi ■? ic Twciifii-fhrec i THE MAPLE LEAF 1 U i CHRISTIAN B.

On the iiKionlit piazza of a seaside cottage an man sat midst the entrancing stiUness of a summer night. All was quiet save the occasional splashing of a lonely wave as it came rippling in to meet the sands of the beach. TJie broad red path of the moon ' s ra s lay like a ribbon on the quiet waters. In these Jialf-haunted surroundings, the old man sat (.Ireaniing ; dreaming a dream such as old men (hxam — not of self but f(.)r others. and a ()ung man of perhaps se enteen ear- came upon the A footstep screened piazza Are you sleeping, ( irandpa . ' tpieried the xoice of the lad. Xo, Lorin, I was onh thinking. I was thinking about ()U. You know ' our old Cirandaddy is jiroud of (iu. Lorin. I ' ve iust lieen planning great things for you. Let me see — you go away to college next year, don ' t iiur Yes, next year. answered the lad, taking a chair near the older man. Yes, next ' ear, echoed the old man, and m - bo -, xou know Lve been thinking — it ' s a serious proposition _ ' ou have ahead of you. It ' s serious, my boy, because } ' ou ' re building a hfe. These next four years with your college training, and _ ou will have laid the foundations for success or failure. Only too many fail to realize this until it is too late. And Lorin, I was just wondering, as I was sitting here, if you would be angr}- if I would give you a few of the things that I have found to be the most worth while in life? I don ' t want to inu :)ose an old man ' s idea on you, but — Of course I want to learn what others ha e found to be the best, inter- rupted the younger, and I want you t i tell me wh.at you ha ' e found t(j be the best. The old man seemed pleased. Life, my boy. is a simple matter, but some people make it too hard. Thev miss the real things of life and cling to the artificial. I su]ipose that the end of life is happiness, but only too mau - fail liecause they do not know what real happiness is. They think that hap])iness lies in wealth and honor and things of this world. Not so : happiness is merely a state of mind, a state in which the mind is contented. And listen, Lorin, no man ever attained happiness by working for it : hapj:)iness comes as a by-product — when one is working for the happiness of someone else — then is when real happiness comes. The old man paused, but the lad said nothing — he was thinking. And Lorin, if }ou are to do the most good for your fellowmen, you must know human nature. Human beings are the most interesting of all creation, so learn to know them. If a man knows human nature, he can sway the world. But after all, men are ' er}- much alike. .Some have more abilities than others, some are more brilliant, and yet there is not so much cliiTerence between the greatest and the most insignificant. .So, m ' boy, don ' t make the mistake that so many make and fail to see the good in others. Always look for the good in the other Thirl i -n ill !• u M Ki i THE MAPLE LEAF I ])erson — it is there. The reason men fail to appreciate each other is because they fail to place themselves in the other fellow ' s place. All was silent sa -e the waverinf, ' call of a nishtintcale as it came tremb ' inp thi-ii the lifeless air. As you ha e conlidence in your fello s, lia e an unkillable belief in (jurself and in the ideals }0U hold. Remember it is the man who dares that wins. Live the earnest. a!,rjjressive life, not a defensive life. It is so much more manl ' to take the offensive afrainst wrone than It is to be on the defensive. ( io at your labors of life with the same determination. This world has no use for the man who is afraid ; this world wants men with determination. But with all our agr ressiveness, live a life of service. That is what th ' s old orld needs today — men who are willing to live their lives for others. My bov. I know what you are thinking; I know you want to see your name written hiiih in places of honor. Listen, mv lad, it is only thru service that men rise to greatness. Don ' t be afraid that in lixing a life for others that ()u will live a for ' otten life. No, f.Tr from that. A life laid down in service never dies. Xever fear th- ' t durs will be an obscure place in life when ou live for others. Never be afraid to do our nart — do more — no man ever ascended the ladder of succe ' s b - doing only what he was supposed to do. Men rise to greatness by doing what they are not supposed to do — bv doing more than their share. Awin the old man paused, but the lad s- id nothing as he ha ' f-unconsciousl - pulled his c va v nearer to his Grandfather. The old man continued, staring ahead thru the purple mcon ' ight as if re - ' ding from the ouiet n-ater. But, m ' bo -. there is one tlnn in this ' ni-ld that T am sorr - for. and that is that men forsjet the visions of their Nouth. Men seem to think nfter they have been out into life that the visions of vouth are nonsense. Not so. I believe that it has been the visions of vouth that have m de this world move forward. Every ji reat movement was fi ' st a dream, and colleee life oi ' ht to be the time of your finest dreams. You will have them — ever ' youth has his visions — but don ' t make the mistake that so man - do and throw them aside. Even if -our dreams do not come true. i);i shnuM ni)t sto)) dreaming them. And a ' on ;- with i i(ins, there is audther thint;- which is impnrtant to the success of ever man and thnt is that there be a purpose in life. A life purpose shou ' d be soiiiethin r definite, somethin r t ' lat vou wou ' d be willinf to give vour who e life for. Make these visions of -outh the dominant purpose of your life. Each man has his errand in life, so select yours and give your life to it. Mv son. A-our life is different from m ' life — our ways are different from mv wavs — future generations will do thing ' s in yet other n-ays, but I believe that some of the things that we have iust been talking about will last thru time, because the ' lie at the basis of human success. The - arose. Together the - walked to the edge of the jiiazza. out into the direct raws of the moon ' i ' dit. Tears stood in the exes of each : one because he had done a service for one whom he loved : the other because of thankfulness. The boy spoke, Grandfather, T will fullow our advice. The old man smiled, I am glad if (iu dii. 1 belie e it will help nu. These ,T-e sonie of the thiu ' i-s that I ha e found most worth whde.

' I he exjiression, great things have small beginnings, applied very well to our class. We recog- nized our low position, hut worked to win a great place in the future. We organized and chose Chester Cripe as class president. After the first nine months of school we left with a fair addition to our knowledge. The next fall we returned as Sophomores. There were nineteen of us, some new members and some old. We were safel - guided thru the year by our presi- dent, Rov Weaver. We enjoyed a number of socials, espcially one in which we entertained the Freshmen. These socials helped to keep the class united and developed class spirit. .Several members of the class showed their ability in literarv work by taking jiart in the inter-class debate. There were again nineteen of us in our Junior year and we were a jolly bunch. We again chose j Ir. Weaver as president. We lost the inter-class debate, but those who debated and lost felt that they had gained by the experience, and in the class more ] ep and real class spirit were aroused than ever before, because of the contest. This year the Academy Literar - Societies engaged in an oratorical and reading contest, and we were proud to have a member of our class as one of the winners. A number of pleasant events occurred during the ear, among which was the social at the home of the class professor, E. J. Zook, during the Winter Term, and the Junior-Senior banquet at the home of Ruby Smoker during the Spring Term. A number of the Juniors did not return to graduate with us, but twenty-three dignified ( ?) Seniors entered upon the last year with heart and soul to make it the crowning year. By the end of the first term, only nineteen (that number which seemed to suit our class better than any other) remained ; and of those onl - four— Ruby Smoker, Martha Bond, Roy Weaver and Willard Snider— were members of the Freshman class in 1916. Mr. Weaver was again chosen as our class president.

The}- are evangelization of the world and religious edu- TUR cation. The Church has always recognized these movements in y her activities. Religious education has always had a great bear- ing upon evangelization, and again evangelization has alwa s had a bearing on religious education. There is an interrelation that dare not be neglected. Those who are interested in the program of Christian missions see the value of thi.s intimate relation. We can not expect to maintain a strong spirit of evangelization in the church unless we give attention to religious education. Neither can we maintain the true spirit of religious educa- tion unless we include the exangelization of the world in our education. During more recent } ears there has been a new interest in religious education as a mo ement. In this mo ement religious education aims to construct the Chris- tian social standards as well as proclaim the good news of the (iospel. It is not enough that we jireach the Clospel of the Kingdom. A e are also interested in the relation of indixiduals with individuals after they ha e accepted the ijrinciples of the Gospel. Religious education deals especially with this phase of building the church. hat has been said of the relation between exangelization and religious edu- cation must also hold in the relation betw een religious education and secular edu- cation. The church is no longer satisfied when she has educated a few to whom she is looking for leadership. The men and women who are to engage in business and other necessary pursuits of life must also receive a proper amount of religious education with the training they receive in the high school and college, e are feeling more dependence upon the layman for active support and leadership in the work of the church. If the layman is to assume more responsibilit ' in the work of the church he must also ha e more training. To this end Goshen College is arranging the courses of the Bible School. Each }ear there has been an eft ' ort made to strengthen and enlarge this department. Xew courses have been added from time to time until now we have five departments. These departments are the Old Testament. Xew Testament, Biblical Theolog -, Practical Theolog} ' , and Historical Theology. These courses cover the general field of religious study. The courses in C)ld Testament and Xew Testament deal with the literature and interpretation of the Bible. The courses in Theolog} ' use Wa n w z Sivf -three ( THE MAPLE LEAF ) DKP ARTMKM ' S more nearly the topical method of study. There will be a new emphasis upon religious education for next year. I ' rofessor W ' m. B. ' eaver, who has come into the Bible Department from the Department of History, will jtay special attention to the subject of religious education. It is the aim to have three teachers in the Bible Department. One who shall be responsible for the teaching of the Old Testament, one for the Xew Testament, and the third for the practical, historical, and educational courses. In this way we are in a position to offer the first year of a regular Seminary course.

Toda - the college girl, in addition to academic work, is asking for training in home-making and house-keei)ing, which is one ])hase of -ocational education. Unless the instinct for home-making is de eloiied and trained the home cannot be the ideal place in which to foster the development of manhocd and womanhood for the future. In p.ast years it has been recognized that her firother should ha ' e train- ing for his profession by attending a school in which he could obtain such training and thereby develop his instincts for luirticular work.

Even tho schools and churches take up training in various lines they cannot do for individuals what a home can to develop strong character. The Home Economics Dejiartment of the College has gained for itself an honorable place which we feel it cannot lose, but must continue as an important and permanent part of the institution. The department has made much progress in its four vears of activity and has materially added to the growth of the institu- tion. The many young women who are taking work in Home Economics and their manifest interest in the science of home-making and house-keeping, bespeak for the department a real success. It places the women in a position to see the charac- teristics of the ideal home and thereb - to apply the principles to the problems of actual life. Since we mvtst recognize the importance of house-keeping to be on an equalit - with other vocations it must be a part of the regular curricula of our schools. The aims of this department of the College are to place house-keeping on a higher j)lane ; to show how the activities of the household can be related to the strengthening of character in each member of the home ; and to make the house- keeper feel that her work is not drudgery if she considers the various activities not as mere ends in themselves but as means to an end, and that end the develop- ment of manhood and womanhood that shall have a real share in the work of the world. SEWING CLASS ' M iZ Si.rfll-i-i lhl i ( THE MAPLE LEAF ) DKI- AU ' l ' IK.VTS The School of Business 5 e; : ii7-3 ? s i [[.; Cnmmercinl Department is one of the oldest departments of Goshen Colleije. It was orL; anized at the ery bei:;inning of the I ' dkhart Institute. At that time there was a great demand for J ]iractical courses in bookkeeping, shorthand and general com- 5 = niercial wurk to fit the young people for positions in the business ■world and this department was organized in response to this de- mand. As the Institution grew-, more emphasis was placed upon the cultural side of education and the Liberal Arts course became the prominent feature. At the present time the great demand is for people who are equipped with an education which combines both the cultural and the practical. The Commercial Department offers courses to meet this demand. The School of Business has outlined its courses to fit with the academx ' and the college work and _ et meet the demands made upon business schools. The most modern methods and systems are used in all of tlie de|)artments. In the typewriting department the touch system wliich. is known for speed and accuracy is taught on well kept machines of standard makes. In bookkeeping, the Rowe method is used, which is comprehensi e and fiexible, thus giving the student a broad field. The Gregg System of Shorthand has been adopted and this being the most widely used system prepares the graduates for the majority of business positions. Two classes are directly benefited by this department, first : those students who find it im] ossib]e to remain in the Institution long enough to finish an Academ ' course, or those who wish to supplement such a course and find it desirable to do so by taking courses in business. .Second, those who want a full commercial course, here receive work as good as is gi en by any school and receive the benefit of a college en ironment. Besides the regular business students in the School of Business man - academ} and college students take elective courses in bookkeeping and txpewriting that they ma} ' be better fitted to be efficient in their chosen occupation. For the benefit of those special students, especially those interested in agriculture, a special course in farm bookkeeping is gi en. The aim of the department in all its work is to be thoroly ])ractical and enable the student to fit at once into any business position he ma be called upon to occup}. A certificate is grante ' d upon completion of the one ear course and a diploma at the close of a full two ears ' course. :S5 ' c i: Si.vfii-nine i THE MAPLE LEAF 1 Ui:i ' AHTMi; TS y There are man va s of judgini the efficiency of a school, but the method that is most reliable and which is mostly used, is the test of practicability. This is best proved b - the students who have attended a school and then get into the active (irld. The fact that graduates of the Department of Business have entered into ncti e business life and ha e been successful sjjeaks well for the efficiency of the work given. A roll of the alumni and former business students shows that not onlv are nian graduates succeeding in business, but many have gone into advanced educational work. The modern requirements of the business world may be summed up in the words, thoroness, accuracy and completeness. The Business Department strives to meet these requirements and is an oasis for development of the student with initiative.

The ery existence of Hfe depends upon an adequate suppl - and this supjily is obtained thru the time-old industry of agriculture. It has been a long recognized fact that every human activity depends upon the industry of agriculture, but in spite of this it is only a com- l)aratively short time since much attention has been given to scientific agriculture. It is true that some progress was made along this line, but it was ver} ' slow until the government took up this work. The constituency of ( loslien C ' ollege is composed primarily of agricultural people. If this institution would not meet the demands of its [)eople along this line it would certainl} fail to a large extent in its mission. It was on account of these demands that this institution de iated from the general courses of other colleges and established the School of Agriculture in I ' IS. The immediate purpose was to give agricultural training to yomig men who fell the need of such an education. This was made ])ossible b the erection of the new .Science Hall, the whole basement of which is devoted to this work. The lirst instructor of Agriculture was Prof. Jesse Stutsman, who taught in this department for two }ears. In 1018, Prof. C. B. Rlosser took charge of the work. At this time new equipment was obtained, more courses were offered, and a larger enrollment was realized. Four distinct t}pes of work are offered : a regular four-year course of study ; a twenty- four weeks ' short course; courses for grade teachers; and courses in the Academy for High School students. The four-_ ear course is of College grade and is organized into three de])art- ments, namely: Department of Animal Husbandry, Department of Agronom_ ' , Department of Horticulture. It is the purpose of the School of Agriculture to oft ' er such courses as will ! •. ♦ W v V- « H ■J I r t., j ' c.-t SiJ ■Sn ' entii-one t THE MAPLE LEAF ] D 2I ' ART IENTS u n N insure not onl_ - a bread cultural education, but also a thoro training in the science as well as the art of Agriculture. It is the purpose to correlate, in so far as possible, the theory taught in the class room with actual practice in the fields and buildings of the College Farm. The College is fortunate in having a 60-acre farm situated in close pro. imit - to the College buildings. A competent manager is in charge of the farm and modern equipment is being added as rapidly as possible. A large modern dairy barn, ranking with the best in the state, is being stocked with pure bred animals. The management is preparing to have representatives from the most important dairy breeds in order to have good stock for judging and experimental work. Preparations are being made to secure all classes of live stock to be used for experimental work, and to correlate the practical with class room work. The farm is located on the Elkhart Prairie just east of the college. This makes it very convenient for experimental plots and work of that t pe. The laboratories are equipped with necessary appliances of various kinds. The Dairv Laboratory is furnished with laboratory tables, steam testers, hand testers, drxing ovens, cream separators, churn and butter workers, scales and other essential equipment. The College has recently erected several new poultry houses in which flocks of birds are kept for practical work in poultry. Incubators and other jwultry devices are also used. The Soils Laboratory is furnished with the necessary etpiipment for thoro courses in soils. In the Agronom ' and Horticulture laboratories are found seeds of all the various farm plants, seed corn testers, laborator_ - tables, pruning outfits, spraying outfits and other necessities for such work. Altho the laboratories are fairly well equipped, vet other apparatus is needed, which will be added as funds are available. The College feels that with this depart- ment well equipped and strong it can make a very definite contribution to the church as well as the whole countr -. SHOKT AGKKTLTrRAL TKKM STUDENTS S event i -trc ' o u n ( THE MAPLE LEAF } ' MfT li; TS School of Education )CHOOL teaching- lias receixed more attentidii durinj - this year than e er before in our history. We ha e reahzed that we are a democratic country and have recognized some of the fauhs of our system. - self-governed people must be a thinking people if they are to be well governed. This has turned the eyes of the iiublic to the public school as the solution for many of the existing evils. Education and democracy are bound up in the unending chain of mutual cause and effect. The schools cannot neutralize but can minimize the handicaps resting upon society. From year to year greater responsibilities are being placed upon the teachers who are to prepare the boys and girls to fit into an increasingly larger unit with intelligence and thought. It is the purpose of the lulucational Department to help the prospective teachers to realize that teaching school is the finest type of pubHc service that any one can render ; to see the real problems as they exist today ; to understand the natural resources of the human mind and to have a knowledge of methods used in developing them. This is brought out tln-ough social activities. During the year a great amount of planning and organizing has been done in the work of the department. The courses have been revised according to the new state requirements. A new two- ' ear and a four-year curriculum has been worked out. In the Spring Term we offered the courses from the new curriculum. We ha e tried to adapt the work to the needs of the students who are taking short com ses and responding to the call due to the present shortage of teachers and to those we see the benefits of taking the full two years of training. We believe that from year to year more students will see the importance of working for the DEMONSTRATION SCHOOL EOOM Seventy-three i THE MAPLE LEAF I DKPARTMEXTS y i two-year Provisional Certificate and Life Certificate and of comi)Ieting the four-year course. We have had the lars est student enrolhiient of any year made up of those working for the A, R and C class certificates, for the two-year and the four-year provisionals. The Department is planning the work to meet the needs of the student teachers and gi ' e such ariety of work that they will be equipped for the special grade or grades which the ' expect to teach. Supervised observation is carried on in all of the grades and under well trained teachers. Opportunity is given for special stud ' of the different problems in the various grades and of the various types of children. Students are required to teach under supervision and to learn from practice as well as from theory. We used the city schools, elementary, junior high, the one-room and two- room rural schools for the observation work. Miss h ' .nloe, an experienced normal school teacher, has had charge of the Rural Demonstration School where most of the supervised teaching was done. During the year we had the opportunity to study new mo ements, to see them in actual progress and to some extent measure the results. It is the intention of the department to put on the full two- ear and the four-vear curricula for the next year and to make a more extended study of the actual problems within our reach.

I ' nt Summer School is not such a b.ad place after all. . ltho the organizations which make up the life of the regular school year are alisent. there are other organizations and activities to take their places. The C ' ountry Life Club was again organized this ear and was responsible for the literary acti ities. The officers of the Club were: President. Daxid Miller: Secretary. ' erda Steiner. A number of literar}- programs were gi en. The prcigram which we w ill perha])s remember longest was the debate on the (|uestion: Resohed. th.at students of Goshen College be required to bake bi-ead before they receixe the . . IL degree. The decision was in fa ' or of the affirmative. Dean Gerig appointed several committees which looked after the religious and social life of the Summer .School. The religious comnfittee proxided for the Dex ' Otional and Bible Stu l meetings. The Devotional meetings were held e er - two weeks during the entire summer. Several o]ien discussions were held and also several talks were given, I ' rof. Keller ;md I ' rof. Detweiler being among those who talked in the Devotional meetings. The Religious comnfittee also provided for the Bible Study classes which met every Tuesdav evening directlv .after su])per. The young ladies ' class was taught by Prof. Gerig. The book which the young ladies studied was I ' nder the Highest Leadership. while the young men studied the .Social Principles of lesus. The voung men did not have a re.gular teacher but took turns at leading the discussions. Both classes took a lively interest in the work and it was a success in every wav. The social part of the Summer School was a evy significant i art of the activities. The Social comnfittee which was appointed provided several worth :2£ ' S C Seventy-five ( THE MAPLE LEAF } DKI ' ARTMK.VTS M Ti VA SfVfiifji-iii.v B n ( THE MAPLE LEAF ), DKPARTMENTS while socials. The first was the actinaintance sucial w hich was held dii the cani]ms at the beginning of the term. This social was a decided success and after the social everybody felt theniseUes to he a part of a big family. Another social was held in the woods near the close of the term. At this social the entire student body went out for their ullller. The students were di ided into families and each family had to give a stunt. In addition to these socials in which the entire student body took part, there were a number of boating parties in which bacon and eggs were usually in evidence. There was an organization of Kulp Hall girls known as the IX ' s which was responsible for the marri age of four of its members. (These weddings were mock weddings.) In addition to these organizations there were a number of unofficial organizations which were always in evidence. The attendance this stunmer was almost normal again altho the girls out- numbered the boys about fi e to one. The total attendance was 140. This attend- ance was considerably larger than last } ear, and next summer an increased attendance can be expected. The Alodel School again featured the work of the Summer .Scho(jl. A model school room was provided in the large social room on the second floor of Science Hall and 24 children li ing in the icinity of the College attended this school. This Model School term lasted for four weeks. Each of the prospective teachers had a chance to try their skill at the art of teaching. This school was in charge of jMiss Alartin and with her extended experience in this line of work, the Model School proved an advantage to those expecting to teach. Tennis proved to be the most jjopular i)astime. The tennis courts were always occupied, the tennis doubles championship being won by Miss Gladys Miller and Mr. David Miller. .Several Intercollegiate tournaments were played with lanchester College. The first was played at Alanchester when the Goshen pla ers, Shoup and eaver, were defeated 6-1, 6-0. 6-2. The next tournament was played on the local courts and again the Goshen bo} ' s were defeated, but the Goshen girls ' team, ] Iiss Hirst and Aliss Miller, defeated the girls ' team from Manchester in straight sets. This was the first tennis tournament that (ioshen e ' er won from Manchester. There are many incidents by which we will always remember the Summer of 1919. Among others might be mentioned the midnight plunge of Wilbur Aliller ; but ] Ir. Miller asked us not to mention this incident so we must refrain from telling you about it. There have been so many wa s b which things have been impressed on our memories that we can alwa s remember the Summer School of 1919. :Mm Serrnlii-sci i THE MAPLE LEAF 1 DRPAKTMKXTS y i Sfrnttii-cii hl p u 1 ( THE MAPLE LEAF } DKPAHTMKXTS .le 1.: 1 lion c-k Monilay.

KKLIGIOl S Y. P. C. A. of Goshen College y n )0 IXSTITl ' TI( JX can till its largest place unless there is some definite provision made for the development of its religious life. In an institution of learning this is especially true; one de otes so much time to the acquisition of knowledge that there is a tendency to place too much emphasis on the intellectual side and to measure everjthing upon an mtellectual basis, unless provision is made to emphasize religious activity. The Y. P. C. A. fills this place in Goshen College. The polic ' of the Association, which in a way governed its activities during the past ear, may best be summed up under several neads ; first, Christianit_ - as a practical religion was emphasized and constant ettort was made to help students realize that tlie right kind of Christian living is most conducive to progress and success. The second aim was to do positive work. Frequenth- when a large number of tasks are undertaken, comparativel} ' few are accomplished or com- pleted definitelv. It has been this year ' s polic} ' to consider what problems were most important and deal with them in as definite a wa_ ' as possible. Third, responsibilit}- was distributed among the arious Cabinet and Committee members, givmg them not onl - an opportunit}- to develop leadership but also an opportunit}- to extend the work of the organization thru their respective departments. Fourth, the Association realized that in order to do more effective work and in order to become more efficient it is necessary to get away from one ' s immediate environ- ment and get new experience by coming in contact with others and by learning from their experiences. For this purpose representatives of the organization attended different conferences and brought back reports which were full of information and inspiration, and which aroused us to do better and more extensixe work. Ivepresentatives from Goshen attended the following conferences : Lake Geneva, Detroit, Elida, Des Moines, Fellowship of Reconciliation, Officers Training, and the Earlham Missions. The Finance Committee of the Y. F. C. A. aims to take care of the funds which are essential to the life and growth of the organization. It collects all dues, and provides other means of raising funds. The Committee also makes the dis- bursements of these finances to the various places to which the Association contributes. This year a large per cent, of the funds were given to the mission cause. All contributions in am- form are considered a sacred charge for the extension of His Kingdom. The Devotional Committee arranged programs for the weekly Devotional and Pra_ er Meetings and it provided programs that would satisfy the needs and demands of the students. It also co-operated in all movements tending to develop the spiritual life of the institution. It was the aim of the Memhership Committee to meet the new students upon arrival in the city and to take care of them in a very definite way until they had become acquainted with their environment and had learned to know the other Ei:,hl; -foiir rr M 7 ( THE MAPLE LEAF RELIGIOIS students. This C ' lmimittee made special ettDi ' ts to show a personal interest in new students: it also attempted t ha ' e each student heconie an acti e memher of some Christian cluu ' cli. The I ' lilile Study Committee succeeded in enrolling a large per cent, of the students in Ilihle Study classes, and thereby helped to make Christ more real in every day life. The courses offered were of such a nature as to hel]) e ery student to become a true Christian. This Committee chose the books for the A ' arious grou])s. and also arranged the grou]is and chose the leaders. The Alorning ' atch was emphasized. The Mission Study Committee created an active interest in missions and in acti e missionarx ' work, lliis was done b planning .Mission . - tuch groups and Ii selecting books for those groups which were best fitted to create the most ititerest in missions. The .Social Committee planned their work so as to create the proper social atmosphere in and about the institution. It arranged the .May Day Outing during last Spring Term and also provided a term social at the beginning of each of the Fall and ' inter Terms. The purpose of these socials was to help new students to adapt themselves to their new social environment. The Committee also secured Aliss Martha Martin to gi ' e a lecture to the girls and Mr. J. C. ]Me er to give a lecture to the men on Social Etiquette Around Goshen College. The E-xtension Committee kept us in touch with other associations b carr ing on all necessar}- correspondence. It also aimed to e.Ntend the cause of Christ bv giving programs in the city and the surrounding country. This Committee does any general work that does n(_)t fall under the head of an sjiecial department. The Employment Committee helped to pro ide for the economic welfare of students who were attempting to earn their way thru college. .Many students were gi en work. The Committee made a special point of emphasizing that all students put their best into their work and do it in the most satisfactory manner possible. The_ ' also remembered students who are working b - sending them tokens of remembrance when the ' are ill and l)y visiting them and seeing that tlie - obtained proper care. The Association workers in order to be successful must determine at the outset to sacrifice a great deal of time and effort, Init they feel aiuply repaid when at the end of the ear they realize the ' have been a part of an organization that has been the means of making Christ more real in the li es of others.

Smueker Set-retarv-Treasurer Lena Stoltzfus Kl The P ' ' oreign Volunteer Band is composed of those students and members of the faculty who plau to become foreign workers if the way opens and God leads. The task facing the Christian body of believers at the present time is a large one. Added responsibilities come because of the knowledge of the conditions existing in the famine stricken countries, as well as the Christless state of the people of heathen nations. Our JJaster said, ' ' Go ye into all the world ... Does that mean me ? The aim of the Band is two-fold: to help the student to face the above ijuestion and to answer it in an intelligent way by encouraging them to take a positive attitude toward the missionary niovement, and to respond to the call as God directs; and to be a mutual help to those who have decided that their life-work lies in foreign lands. Meetings were held each week. Every alternate Sunday the Band studied the book, Tlie Appeal of Medical Missions, inviting any students who were interested to join in the meeting and take part in the discussion. Immediate problems were discussed at the meetings held during the week. Tlie Band gave a public program once each term, for the purjiose of bringing before the students the conditions of other lauds and the challenge these conditions present. The motto of the Band is: The Evangelization of the World in this Generation. It is the aim of the members of the Band to study more definitely the needy fields and also the methods that will make the strongest appeal to the people with whom the missionaries must work. rr ( THE MAPLE LEAF RELIGIOUS Christian Workers ' Band orncEKS President- Clayton 11.

It Tf(jSy is composed of those students who are desirous of preparing y f themselves for some definite religious work. The membership Im of the band has been thirty during the past ear. These members w itli isitors meet every alternate Sunda}- morning at 8 :30. At these meetings the speakers, who are usually members of the band, discuss problems bearing upon some phase of religious activit . It is the aim of the band to have every member appear on the program at some time, and thus get some practical experience along these lines. Outside speakers are also invited to give lectures to the organization. Some of the topics discussed during the past year were : The Art of Character Building; The oice of God in the Twentieth Century; Recon- struction in Europe; Choosing a Life Work; The Sunday Problem; Place of the Alennonite Church in the World Today. Special efforts were made so that the subjects discussed at these meetings related to the problems and conditions confronting the church at large as well as the local communities. The main purpose of these programs and of the Band is to get the students familiar with the actual conditions that exist, how to become successful workers, and to instil into the lives of all that deep missionary spirit which brings us closer to our Creator.

Service lias been tlie foremost iileal to impress itself n]ion tlie stmlents of Goshen College anil under its stiniulatinj; inlhience it was but natural that when the call for service came there were many students and ahnnni who were ready to answer the call. The Friends Service Committee for the war stricken areas of Europe anil the American Committee for Relief in the Near East offered tields for service. By the generous and faithful work the veil of gloom has been drawn aside for many a disheartened refugee and a new vision of hope was developeil. Quite a number of the workers have returned to the homeland while others are still in the various countries in Eurojie and the Near East.

They form an important phase of the outside work. There are six societies, all very T(((9)) ft ' ' - t ri ' ' al societies for the college women — Avon and Vesperian; u two societies for the college men — Aurora and Adelphian. The Philo- ((w) mathean Society is the academy society for girls and the Ciceronian for the academy boys. Practically all of the students are members of one of these societies. The rivalry between the college societies is of a friendly nature and tends to make literary work more interesting for all concerned. A new student has the privilege of joining either society and this usually pro- duces considerable anxiety in solicitation. The societies meet regularly at 4:20 on Monday evenings in their separate halls for private programs. The purpose of these programs is to develop literary ability in debating, reading, oratory and parliamentary law. Music is often added to give variety to the program. These programs are educational as live present day subjects are discussed and opportunity is given to everyone to develop their talents. Each society has its elective officers and in this list there is a critic whose duty it is to criticise and give helpful suggestions. More intensive literary work is gained by virtue of the public programs given in the Assembly Hall. The societies being divided into three pairs furnish a program every two weeks. The public is invited to these programs which are always interesting, unique and original. The public programs necessitate society co-operation which fosters a valuable spirit. Some of the programs given this year were ' ' President Wilson Entertaining King Albert of Belgium , A Literary Circle , rncrowned Victors , Nationalities in Musi- cal America , and Lincoln, the American . The public program on the College cart was especially interesting. The old cart had to give way to a new one and the students wished to pay respect to the vehicle which had served them so long. All societies joined in the program, each furnishing one number in the memorial. Besides private and iiublic programs, outside programs are given. Quite often a so- ciety is called upon to furnish a part or all of a program at a Farm Betterment Club or country school. This gives an opportunity for the students to get away from the familiar audiences and face strangers, and this is valuable in literary training. The outside pro- grams are not usually intensive, but are duplicates of numbers given in private programs. All the societies have experienced a decided growth over last year, especially in the academy societies. This gives larger audiences, but adds the disadvantage that individual members get less experience. To the literary activity is ad.led the social element. It is not unusual for one society to invite another to its program. It is an unwritten law to have inter-society socials. The co-operating societies usually entertain each other. The past year has been a great year in literary work and we hoi e that it will always remain on that high plane. :Mm Sbulii-chiht ( THE MAPLE LEAF rr LITERAKY The Students ' Lecture Board Vera Tliunitou (. ' laytoii Kratz Ernest Boliu Prof. Kurtz A. F. Grassniyer Wiliiia Simu-ker Rutli Bruhaker The Students ' Lecture Board is composed of students representing each of the six literarj ' societies, both of the College and the Academy. The president of the board is a member of the faculty, who has general oversight of the work. The different literary societies are providing for these lectures and entertainments for the purpose of bringing to the stuilent body some of the best talent in literary work. These lectures are provided with the idea of extending the work of the literary societies, and also for giving to the friends of the College an opportunity to attend programs of this nature. For the last few years the board has eoojierated with the Ministerial Association of the city and as a result of this the programs were given in the differetit churches of the city. The course of this year was as follows: Xov. 11 — Wallace Amsbary — Presbvterian Cliuridi — ' ' An Evening With Riley. ' ' Feb. 12 — Marion B. risk — Baptist Church — ' ' Queer Charac- ters I Have Known. ' ' March 5— Fred G. Bale— Methodist Church— ■• Tlie Fourth Line of Defense. ' ' March IS — Sidney Landon — Brethren Cliurcli — ' ' Speaking Likenesses of Great Men. ' ' April 20 — Glenn Frank — Reformed Church — Old Order vs. New Disorder. ' ' The course was exceptionally good this year. It is the aim of the board to get the best talent possible with the means at hand. The course for next year has been arranged for, anil from all indications it will be as good if not better than the one of this year. The financial condition of tlie board is in such a condition that even better talent can be procured. u n Xhlrtll-lli MT - i THE MAPLE LEAF 1 .ITER AKY Students ' Library Association y i orricERs Presiilent A.

Sjirunger Adelphian Eov W caver Ciceronian Every college must have a well e(|uipped and properly maintained library, if its work is to be most satisfactorily carried on. No college can work effectively if it does not have access to library accommodations. Realizing this fact early in the history of Goshen College, tl ' .e Literary Societies of that institution took advanced steps to supply that requirement, and for this purpose organized the Students ' Library Association. This association is com- posed of all the memuers of both academy ami college literary societies. Its officers are elected from the society members, and its finances are obtained by assessment which is based upon a stipulated jier cent of all regular term fees, paid into the literary societies. By this scheme of financing, the association is certain of its support anil is enableil to en- large its equipment as tlie institution ' s growth requires such enlargement. During the past vear the association has made special effort to be of service to the institution; thru purchase of needed books, by providing reference shelves to facilitate the securing of needed material, by providing conveniences for students in the reading room, etc. Tlie library this year provided two local daily papers, four large dailies, twelve weekly publications, and seventeen montlil.v magazines. Tlie selection of magazines and books is made thru a committee composeil of one faculty member, and one member from each of the six literary societies. Books and publi- cations are selected with the aim of jjroviding material which will be useful to student interests, in the different departments of activity: Religion, Scientific, Educational, Social, Agricultural, etc. The book committee this year has purchased ninety books classified as follows: History anil Economics 1-t Education and Psychology 14 English Literature iU Home Economics 9 Biology and Botany 9 Pliysics and Chemistry 6 Agriculture 6 Music Art -i Religion -t Business - Mathematics - Athletics 2 Biography - kl Uii,- Iliinilnil 1 1 5W P ' Pf m -r r- r One Hiiiidrcil One i THE MAPLE LEAF PLATFORM The Oratorical Association y M M Burkhard Eslilimaii Shoup iliss Ebersole Meyer Weber (jrassmyer Miss Leaman Kratz L.

Kvatz Secretary- Oola Yoder Treasnrer Bertha Leaman The Oratorical Association holds a very distinct and im]iortant place among the activi- ties of the school and there are few organizations that so definitely help their members. The Oratorical Association has charge of the interclass debates, intercollegiate debates, inter- class oratorical contest and the intercollegiate peace contest, and the membership of the association is extended to those who take ]iart in these events. The work of the association has been marked by unnsua! activity this year. The inter- class debates were again carried on between all the classes; the intercollegiate debates, as well as the Intercollegiate Peace Contest were held after a lapse of two years, and the Inter- class Oratorical Contest was again held as is the usnal cnstoni. I ' nnsual interest was shown in all of these contests. Intercollegiate debates were held tliis year for the lirst time since the spring of 1917. Early in the year arrangements were made with ilt. Morris and Mancliester Colleges to reorganize the Triangular Debating League. These debates were lield on tlie i(5th of Marcli. Altho Goshen was defeated in both of these debates, we feel that tlie work was in every way satisfactory. This is the first year that Goshen was ever defeateil in botli debates. It has been deenieil advisable, because of the expense of the trip to Mt. Jlorris and for other reasons, to discontinue connections with the Mt. Morris College and organize a league of colleges nearer to Goshen. Manchester, Goshen, and one other college, possibly Kala- mazoo or Iniliana Central, will compose the new league.

The affirmative side of the question was upheld by the .Junior team, composed of A. F. Grassmyer, H. E. Nunemaker, Clayton 11. Kratz, captain, and Lloyd G.

This debate was perliajis the most bitterly contested interclass debate ever held at Goshen. Both teams had the (|uestion well in hand and both fought hard for the decision. Tlie judges for the debnte were Attorney AVarren Burkey, Rev. E. A. Schultz of the First Baptist Church, and I ' rofessor D. A. Lehman. The judges decided 2-1 in favor of the affirmative.

Both teams had the oratory and fire which make a good debate and both teams had the question in hand. It was one of the best debates ever heard on the local floor. The .iudges decided 2-1 in favor of the visiting team. The best kind of feeling was shown between the Manchester and Goshen teams and we feel that events of this kind are necessary to the development of the proper school spirit.

The team supported the negative of the (juestion: Resolved, that in the United States a system of Compulsory Arbitration should be adopted for all labor disputes. ' ' The debate showed that both teams had the subject thoroly in hand and each was convinced that their arguments were true. The odds seemed to be against Goshen and the disappointments were threefold. When the team arrived they were disappointed to find out that the judges were not chosen. The second disappointment was that the rules were misinterpreted, which resulted in a reversal of the order of the rebuttals. The final disappointment came when the judges gave their decision, .3-0 in favor of Mt. Morris. The debate was lost but nurny lessons learned and we hope that in the future debates there will be a better understamling and that the like will occur, never again ' . y n MHIS C One Hundred Seven ( THE MAPLE LEAF ) .

Sprunp;cr Treasurer Clarence Troyer The human body is only at its best when its physical forces contribute to the highest efficiency of its religious, intellectual and moral nature. The stu- dents of Goshen College, realizing the -alue of a strong body a ' ul the need of some physical exercise, organized the Athletic Association. The membership of the association is open to all the young men of the College who are interest- ed in the development of their bodies. All are encouraged to participate in good, clean athletics. True sportsmanship in all events and upon everv occa- sion is considered a high tribute to all participants. Fair play in verv in- stance and no honor in victory unless honestlv won. There are several means thru which our athletic abilities ma} be developed. In the fall as soon as the disagreeable weather arrives the basketball tossers are trying their skill. The interclass series bars no one and many are the workouts before the championship is conceded to the victorious team. The spirit is at its zenith and every class sends forth a scrappy team, but the true athletic spirit is always in evidence. Xot e ery one is interested in basketball, so during the Winter Term the association provides gymnastics for all those who desire some exercise. Two classes in physical culture were organized, these classes met three times a week in tlie social room where their muscles were developed. ith the coming of spring comes the love for the diamond . The weather was anything but favorable for baseball ; however with determined practicing between snow storms and showers the team was whipped into shape. Every position was coveted by two or three players and all who were issued the knickerbockers deserved them. The friendly rivalry between the literary societies reached its highest point at the intersociety track meet. All the events of a regular conference were participated in and some of the previous records lowered. As we look back over the year 1919-20, it has all the evidences of the beginning of a new era in athletics for Goshen College. The interclass spirit was tense and of the highest calibre. It was Goshen ' s first year in Intercollegiate Basketball and altho there were no great honors won, it serves as a beginning. It was the first year for student physical culture classes. A system of granting letters ori the percentage basis has been adopted by the association for basketball and baseball pla ers. The material for the baseball team was exceptional and unusual. The great need of physical training has been shown and we are trusting that this additional necessity for the upbuilding of stronger physical, mental and religious lives will come to Goshen in the very near future. :Mi iz u n One Hundred Seventeen u w i THE MAPLE LEAF ATHLETICS Interclass Basketball Kropt ' Regai ' flless of tlie fact that Goshen College does not have a gymnasinm, the spirit of basketball cannot be sqnelcheil and just as spring brings the birds, cold weather brings those bangs and thumps in the southeast corner of the Ad ' ' building, and you can assure yourself that the basketball season is on. After a hard day of books nothing is relished more than a good game of basketball. It is a great stimulant for those that partake of the sport and also for those who are on the side lines. The size of the room makes the game rougher for both players and sjiectators, but in spite of this every class that has five men has a team and every game is well suiiported. Tlie lirst of tlie Interclass Basketball games was played November 14th. From this time until tlie linal game there was excitement in the gymnasium. The schedule was ar- ranged so that all College and Academy classes are represented. The most interesting game of the year was played on December :ird between the College So|ihomores and the College icraji royal from the first sound of the whistle until the timekeeper ■iihoinores, for the Freshmen were five points in the leail.

After the interclass schedule was played there remained many long winter mouths before the baseball season and the active members of the Athletic Association put in their plea for real basketball. Their requests were granted by tlie faculty committee and they were allowed to play five intercollegiate games witli tlic limitations tliat all be jdayeil at Goshen. The Association iujinediately rented a gymnasium down town and under tlie direction of Professor Keller the team was rounded in shajie. The iiauilicaps were many. The gym- nasium was a mile from the college and this limited the team to two practices a week. In spite of the obstacles, the squad w ' as very regular at practice and remained loyal thruout the year. Manager Scliertz liad a ditticult task to secure games witliout juomising a return, lie must be congratulated for liis determined effoit. and ' had it nut been for the ■■llu tlie total number of games would have been played.

The courts were all cleaned up and in the best of shape by the time school staited in the fall so that tenuis got away with a running start. With all c.f the ccnirts in tlie best of condition, the tennis enthusiasts made use of them practically all tlie time when classes were not in session. The fall tournament a mong the young men developed into a rather interesting affair, as there were about a dozen fellows who fought their way towards the finals and stepped :M §2 iz Our Huiidri ' d T-LCciifii-nne ( THE MAPLE LEAF ) ATHLETICS out (iiie by one only nfter some real live te tlieir wiiy into the linals wiTe Kolieit Ve:i Iihiye.l a steady anie all tliiuout the seiies [ilaying in the finals.

The seore was (i-1, i-:i, 7-n. u i With all of the enthusiasm whieh was shown in tenuis last fall, it was deeided to arrange for intercollegiate doubles. A game was seeured with Manchester and then eame the tryouts in wliieli eomiietition was exeeiitioually keen, as eight strong teams took ]iart. The team which finally won out was the one composed of Meyer and Shoup, who jdayeil Manchester on the local courts on October 24th. From the start it was evident that the Manchester men had the edge on the Goshen players altho the local boys played a st ' -ady and consistent game. The score was 6-1, 6-2, 6-3. Interest in tennis never was better, ami we can look forward to a big year in tuniis next year. Interest was increased by the system of granting letters which was worked out in cou.junction with the Athletic Association. All winners of single tournaments and the n;emliers of intercollegiate teams will receive letters at the close of each school vear.

The work of the Council added materially to the comUict of the students, especially conduct in the Reading Room. Perhaps the most outstamlinu; feature of the year ' s work, however, was the working out of the Student Activity J- ' oint System. The purpose of this system is to limit the amount of outside work in which a student may take part. A number of the students were carrying more than their share of the responsiliilities in the student organizations, and it is the purpose of the jilan to relieve those who were doing more than their share. Each office in each of the student organizations was given a number of points according to the amount of work each requiied. Twenty points is set as the limit as to the number of jjoints which a student may have. Oiir IIi,,i(lr, ' inu;iilii-,!,ihl u n ( THE 4APLE LEAF } MISfF.I.I.

We ha e often wished that the opportunity might present itself b which it would be possible to pre- serve, in compact form, sume of the facts and tradi- tions which ha e pla_ ed a part in the histi)r - of our school. In tlie brief historical sketches we ha e tried to trace the growth of our school down thru the quar- ter centur - which brings us to the present. We ha e also tried to recortl a few facts relative to the origin of each of the Student ( rganizations, for we feel that this will be of interest to students as well as hunni. We are especially indebted to a number (if friends for the kind assistance they have gi en us in getting these few facts together.

This m(jne - is in -ested each ear and bears interest until the expiration of the ten ears. At the present time the fund amounts to approximatelx $20,000.

Elkhart Institute n )y l ' . l{LKHAI ' r IXSTITL ' TE came into existence in answer to a need for a church school. The i|uesti()n of a church school TllHx had lieen discussed by a number of leading; ' men of the Alen- ( nonite church for some time. Sexeral meelin ' s were called at I ' .lkhart, Indiana, and it was finally decided to ha e Dr. H. A. Alumaw start the school as a prixate institution ' vhich was to be ■cnown as l- ' lkhart Institute. A number of men. amoni; whom were J. S. Lehman. J. S. Cofl ' man, A. C. Kolb. A. B. Kolb, V. W . I ' .runk. 1). J. J.ihns. Jonathan Kurtz, Merman Voder, J. ( ). Martin, . amuel Y-uler an I J. S. Hartzler, jnxmiised it theii- mor.al supiiort. Dr. Alumaw started the school in the f. ' dl of 1S ' )4 with four students enrolled. One teacher, I ' rof. Ilosnier, constituted the teaching; start ' . Soon a commercial course was added and Prof. T. F ' . Lahnion was engatjed to teach liookkeeping, shorthand and tyjiewriting. Ilefore the entl of the first school ear, elocution was also added. These were da s of small lieginnings. In May, 1895, The Elkhart Institute Corporation was formed, providing for a capital stock of $10,000 (later increased to 525,0001. Plans were then made for the erection of a suitable building which was soon started. The P ' all Term opened in the G. A. R. Hall Init in January, 1896, the school was moved to its new building on Prairie Street. The first annual catalogue was issued in 18 ' ' ' 6 and at that time the Institute was ott ' ering a four-year Academic Coiu ' se, the third and fourth ears of which was known as the Scientific Course. Se eral _ ears later the C(jurse was revised and the old Academic Course ga e way to a course which was designed to meet college entrance recjuirements. This was the Latin-Scientific Course which continued until the institution was moved to Goshen in 1903. One of the main difficulties which the management had to deal with was to get qualified teachers who would strive to make the school what it was intended to be. It was not until 1898 that the majority of the teachers were members of the same church as the founders. In this ear. Prof. X. 1 . B ers became the principal of the school. AUIkj courses of stud_ had been planned and a general policy for the school had been discussed, to Prof. Byers fell the task of working out the courses of study and the general policv for the school. ZM m One HiiikJi;,! Tliirti - r ( THE MAPLE LEAF ) ALIMM n HISTOHK-Al, GradualK- the schuol made jirogress. From the small number of thirty-fi e who enrolled the first ear, the number gradually increased until it became evident that a new location was necessary. Several places were suggested among which were Highland Park, l :ikhart, Wadsworth, Ohio, and Goshen. In Ma -, 190, , the in itation of the city of Goshen was accepted and plans were begun for the remf)val of the school to its new home. y T ' .lkliart Institute has ceased to exist, even the building which accommodated the school in its early days has been razed, but Elkhart Institute will always live in the memorv of those who knew her, and she will always be revered by the students of Goshen College as the Mother Institution of the school they love. u y n KLl-CIIAKT INSTITUTE One lUiiulred Thirt y-iiiiht y 7 M ( THE MAPLE LEAF 1,I IM M) IIISTOmcAI History of Goshen College RI- ' .A ' I nii) einents lia e small beginiiintjs. And so it was with the school which we are proud to call our Alma Alater. From the humble beginning which she made in the fall of 1903, ( ioshen has grown until now she ranks with the better colleges of the Aliddle est. Few colleges can show the rapid progress that (loshen has made from an educational standpoint and few Colleges hri e turned out students who are as serious and as interested in the imp irtant things of life. ( joshen College made her humble beginning in the fall of 1903. Early in av of that ear, the invitation of the city of Goshen to establish the institution her cit ' was accepted and on June 12th the present site of Goshen College xo.vii i:. r.vKKis I ' rc-si.li ' ut i!iii:;-l!U:; was dedicated. Hon. Antlii n - Deahl deli ered the address of welcome and the response was made by C. llenr Smith representing the new institution. The ground was then broken for the new building, J. .S. Hartzler holding the plow which outlined the site of the new building. On September 29, 1903, Goshen College opened her doors for the first time to students. The onl ' building which was completed at that time was the building now known as East Hall. It was built for a ladies ' dormitory but as the Adminis- tration Building w as not cf)mpleted, the management was forced to use part of this building for class work. The second floor was used for girls ' rooming quarters ; the first floor for recitation rooms and chapel exercises, while the basement accommodated the dining hall, reading room and carpenter shop. Thus Goshen College began. Work was rushed on the Administration Building and bv Ianuar ' 6, 1904, One Hundred Thirty-ni ne ( THE MAPLE LEAF ) AM IM WO HISTORICM, u M enough rooms were finished so that tlie school work could he transferred from the dormitory to the Administration Building. The building was dedicated on the evening of January 8, 1904. The next big jiroblem was to get sufficient rooming places for the students. Goshen had already begun to grow and the first plans proved inadequate. In answer to this need Kulp Hall was built in the summer and fall of 1906 and was used as a ladies ' dormitor . Mast Hall then became the men ' s dormitorv. JOHN ELLSWORTH ?L RTZLEK President IKLMtHS The educational progress of the school was under the direction of President Byers. the first president of Goshen College. To President Byers must go much of the credit f(jr putting the scIkioI on a sound educational basis. In 1903, the . cademy De])artment was comjjleteh reorganized. The old four-year Latin- Scientific Course gave way to a four-year Academy Course and a two-year College Course. This two-year course was recognized b - other colleges so that in KX)5 Goshen became what is known as a Junior College. In 1909 the entire College Dejiartment was reorganized and nine distinct departments were formed with a ]jrofessor at the head of each department. Ivach department head had become a s]iecialist in his particular field so that the standard of scholarship was raised. This made possible another big step in the growth of the school, which came in 1910 when Goshen granted her first A. P.. degrees. In the spring of 1913 the administration of President Byers came to a close. To President Byers must go the credit of developing the educational phase of the institution so that it couM offer a four-year college course which was recognized by institutions of higher learning. On, Hii,i,ln,l F„rh, y i ( THE MAPLE LEAF } M.l IM M IIIS ' I ' IIKK l. President Byers was siu ' ceedcd in llie fall (if I ' M.i li the new |jresident, John I ' llsworth Hartzler.

In 1915 a new department was added when the Agricnltm ' al Department was organized. A x ' ear later, 1910, another new rleparlment was added when the Home Economics Department was organized. As Goshen College had already grown larger than the most optimistic of the organizers had dreamed, it was necessary to make plans for a greater Goshen. First of all it was necessary to rearrange the cam]ms p ' ans. The original quadrangle which had been plamied, pri) cd to he entirelx too small. So new GEORGE .J. l.At ' P President IflLs-lOll) plans were made which necessitated the mi) ing of East Hall from it old location just east of the . delphian fountain to its present location on the north side of College Avenue, opposite the campus. East Hall was moved in the spring of I ' Uh. Another important material change wdiich was brot about during this period was the buying of the College Farm early in 1914 to aid in the development of the Agricultural Department which was organized a year later. To further accom- modate the increasing number of students, the Science Hall was built in 1915, thus making it possible for Goshen to accommodate a larger student bod ' . Early in 1918 President Hartzler resigned the presiclency of the institution. The five years of his administration were marked hv progress both in a material and educational way. He was succeeded by George J. Lapp, . ltho with the College but little more than a year. I ' resident Lapp proved himself to be an earnest worker and a man of ideas. L ' nder his administration the financial campaign was launched which later so fa orabl_ - helped Goshen in her standard- Oiie fliimlreil Fort: - r Va n i THE MAPLE LEAF I At,l M I AND HISTORIC I, ization. President Lapp retired from the presidency in the fall of 1919 in order to resume his work in the mission field. In the fall of 1919 H. Frank Reist became the new head of the scIkkjI. Altho he has been with us less than a year, he has shown himself to be a man of vigor and a man of ability. To President Reist and Prof. Detweiler must go the credit for the raising of the money which was the last step in the standardization of Goshen College which was a very significant step in the history of the school. February 13, 1919, marks a very important date in the twenty-five years of progress of this institution as it was on this day that the Indiana State Board of Education recognized Goshen as a full standard college which means that the graduates of Goshen will have no difticully in getting state recognition for their work. The prospects for a greater Goshen were never brighter. The constituency which the school represents are interested in the cause of the school. The city of H. FRANK REIST Piesiilent 1919- Goshen is backing the school as never before and hnall she is getting the financial support of which she has been so long in need. The prosjiects for a new gym- nasium and a new men ' s dormitor)- are Icoming u]! in the near vista of the future. A new era has dawned for Goshen College. F.ut do not think that Goshen has reached her ideal. No, far from that, for Goshen will never reach her ideal ; she is following a moving ideal. An ideal which grows and becomes of deeper meaning as the knowledge of men more perfectlv interpret the will of the Almighty as it slowly unfolds itself to men. :mj i: Oni- Hundred Fiirtii-two i THE MAPLE LEAF 1 l.l IM M) IIISTOUU VI.

It came in recognition of a need of the stiulents for a religious organi atioii of their own. The lirst otlicers of the organization were: President _ N. E. Byers Vice-President F. S. Eliersole Secretary Anna lloldcinan Treasvirer S. A. Kurtz A devotional meeting was liehl each week of tlie school year. This plan has been fol- loweil to the present time. Missionary and Bible classes were organized at the beginning of the organizations. Additions have been made to the work of the Y. P. until there are now eight distinct departments. The work has been somewhat diviiled, the young men and young women having separate organizations. Every year representatives liave been sent to the sunimei- confeienccs of the Y. W. (_ ' .

STUDENT VOLUNTEER BAND The Stu.lent Volunteer Moxeuu ' ut was organized at Elkhart Institute in the school year of lS!l!Mlllin. I ' nif. 1. R. Hetweiler was the lirst president of the band, and the lirst socretajy was iliss 01i ia Good. From the beginning the band emnuraged the ne. ' d of mis- sionary acti ity and the result is that a number of (ioshen ' s students lia e given them- selves wholeheartedly to the cause of missions. CHRISTIAN WORKERS ' BAND The Christian Workers ' Kami was oigaui .ed in the fall of 11U4. The purjiose of this band is to bring befoi ' e the students the need of Christian service by bringing the needs of the rural communities, the cities, and society in general before them. One Hundred Fortii-five rP i THE MAPLE LEAF 1 ALl MXI A D HISTORIC Al, Literary Societies M The history of literary organizations of Goshen College begins with the organization of the Elkhart Institute Literary Society. This society admitted any student of Elkhart Institute to menibership, but it soon became evident that one society was too small to accommodate the entire student body; so the society was divided into two new societies; one the Ciceronian Debating Clul) which was a society for men; and the other the Philoma- thean Society whicli was an iirgaiiizatiou for women. In less than a year th« Cicciunlan debating Chili tiocanie ioo large to do efficient work, so it was decided that a further division should be made; tlie Ciceronians being divided into two new societies; the Aurora Literary Society and tlie C. M. A. (Adelphian) Literary Society. Two years later the I ' hilomatheans were ilivided into the Vesperian and Avon literary societies. V to 1909 the membershiji of the literary societies consisted of both college and academy students, tut at this time it was deemed advisable to form a society for college men and also a society for college women. This brought two new societies into existence; the Emersonian Society, the society for college men; and the Alethea Society, which was the society for college women. The societies were organized on October 18, 1909. But as Goshen College grew, tliere soon came the time when the college students out- numbered the academy students so that the two college societies could not do efficient work because of the large numbers and the four academy societies were handicapped by the lack of members. It was more logical to have the four societies in the college and the two societies in the academy. In October 1913, the Emersonian Society disbanded and Aurora and Adelphian became the names of the new college societies, while the name of Ciceronian was recalleil as the name of the academy society. In April, 1914, the ladies ' societies de- cideil to make a change similar to the change which the men ' s societies had made earlier in the school year, so the Alethea Society was dissolved and the names of the academy societies, Vesperian and Avon became the names of the new college societies. But this left the academy girls without a society, so the name of Philomathean was again taken as the name of the new academy society. This brings us to the literary society situation as it is today. The Aurora and Adelphian societies being the societies for college men and the Vesperian and Avon societies for college women; while the literary activities of the academy are directed by the Ciceronians and the Philomatheans. As time goes on new divisions will probably be made as no society can work efficiently with more than forty members. A short history follows of the early organization and growtli of each of the societies which are now active literary societies at Goshen College: CICERONIANS The original Ciceronian Sdciety was a biani-h of the Elkhart Institute Literary Society and was organized on September 2S, ls9 i. It socui liecanie too large for efficient work and in the fall of ls99 it was diviiled into the Aurora and C. M. A. (Adelphian) Societies. The name of Ciceronian ceaseil to exist until October 1.3, 1913 when the name was again used as the name of the acadeniv men ' s societv. One Hundred Fort; -. THE MAPLE LEAF .

N. Kornhaus as the first president. This name was changed to its present name of Adelphian June 11, 190s. It became a society for college nicn in October 191.!. PHILOMATHEANS The original Philomathean Society cai.ie into existence wlien the Elkhart Institute Society was diviiled in the fall of 1S9.N, after that society had become too large for the best work. In a few years the Philomathean Society Itecame too large, so it was divided into the Vesperian and Avon societies anil the Philomathean name was ilropjied until the name was again taken in the s]iring of 1914 as the name of tlie academy girls ' society. VESPERIANS The Vesperian Literary Society was organized on Octoljer 7, 1901, it being a division of the Philomathean Society. The first presiilent of tlie Vesperians was Bertha Zook- Detweiler. This society was organized as an academy society and remained as such until April, 1914, when it became a college society. AVONS The Avon Literary Society was organized on October 14, 19iil, and the first regular meeting was held on Xovemlier 4, 1901. Miss Alta Kurtz was the first president of the Avons. Tlie Avon Society was organized as an academy society and remained as sucli until April, 1914, when it became one of the college societies. STUDENTS ' LIBRARY ASSOCIATION The Students ' Libr.-iry Association came into existence on May 9, I90:-i, just before the school was moved to its new home in Goshen.

In January 1912 the first interclass debate was held. At least two interclass debates have been held every year for the last eight years. These debates are fine training and develop material for the intercollegiate contests which are held every year. The intercollegiate debaters are chosen from the interclass debaters. Early in the fall of 1912 plans were completed by which the Triangular Debating League came into existence. This league was composed of Mt. Morris, North Manchester, and Goshen colleges, and has continued to the present tinu witli the exception of the two years during the war when the debates were not held. Tlic first intercollegiate debate was held April 22, 191.i. Goshen has won eight victories out of twelve debates. There is another phase of oratory that Goshen participates in, anil of which she is proud, because a former president of this school starteil the movement. This is the Inter- collegiate Peace Contest which was organized in 19(14 at tlic suggestion of President N. E. Byers. It has been extremely successful and Goshen has made creditable showing among the other colleges and universities of the state. Goshen men have won second prize in this contest on three different occasions. Music PHILHARMONIC The Philharmonic .

Kolb The first work which was taken up was Handel ' s Messiah . Tliis organization has since grown to embody a chorus of sixty members and its work is always a]i]ireciated as is shown by the crowds which come out to hear them. GIRLS ' GLEE CLUB The Ladies ' Glee Club was organized in tlie fall of 191(i witli Miss Sylvia Bontrager as Director. The first president of the club was Miss Maude Byler. The club organized with thirteen members but has since increased to twenty members. The club has given a number of programs each year since its organization whicdi were always thoroly enjoyed. MEN ' S GLEE CLUB The Mens ' Glee Club was organized on February 7, 1914, at tlie suggestion of I ' lof. Eliersole, with S. N. Nunemaker as the first president.

' Twas the last day of March Ami the lights were off; The dorm was all quiet ' Cept for a sneeze or a cough. And the matron started snoring. On second floor, in a little room, Big Ben was ticking proudly; He had never been in that room before So yelled at ll ' ::i(l loudly. And the matron kept on snoring. Two little imps j imped out of bed And liurried down tlie hall. They stumbled over the north stairsteps And ran into the wall. Still the matron kejit on snoring. They were going to get the matron s clock Anil turn it an liour ahead. They opened the door of the outer room And went tlirough with stealthy tread, And the matron kept on snoring. The clock was nowhere to be seen But they heard a tiny sound; It was in the inner room instead; Their hearts began to jiound. But the matron ke|it on snoring. They opened the door, the wind blew through, And made a fearsome clatter. They saw the clock by the matron ' s bed, But ' now that didn ' t matter — For the matron ke]it on snoring. Tliey sneaked the clock. Turned it an hour ahead, And placeil it silently By the matron ' s bed And the matron kept on snoring. Ne.xt morning the matron in excited state • l.

She looked at her watch and the calendar: ' ' To me Fate sure is cruel, I got up an hour too soon, I did, Because it is April Fool, I will never again be snoring.
