This is a question that has been anxiously considered by many people during the last year. It - ff may perhaps be too early, as yet, to venture any prognostiga- tions as to what it will be when one takes into consideration its varied experience, but it is only fair and at least reasonable to make known to those who are interested, our plans so they may know the ends toward which we are working' First of all we believe that the social and economic developments of the last several decades which have broken up the isolation of the Men- nonite people, have also thrust upon it new problems and responsibilities which, much as the Church may desire, it cannot evade. This has not only given rise to new social and economic problems but also to problems which strike at the very foundations of our faith, which if it is to be perpetuated requires that readjustments be made to meet the situation. These re- adjustments however do not involve a sacrifice of any principles but rather an application of them in the solution of present day problems. No lame, halting attitude or ignoring of facts and conditions nor any rash onward sweep with the popular current can bring a successful solution, but only by prayerful and intelligent consideration, coupled with definite aims, and persistent effort can we hope to attain unto helpful results. In these times when the unrest and dissatisfaction in the world has caused empires to fall and kingdoms to be dissolved, we find the same spirit at work among the believers, and it is necessary to muster all our forces if we are to be held together on a Christian basis without com- promise or alliance with the forces of the world that are destructive to Christian life or are seeking to remedy its ills with means outside of Christ. What then has this to do with educational institutions and how is Go- shen College related to these issues. To this we reply that as one of the organs of the Church it must take its place on the side of the Church and do its part in preparing men and women to enter the conflict on the side of right and lift up to all the great principles of Christ in which alone there is salvation. In order that this may be accomplished the College must offer to all men and women an opportunity of securing a broad but true education under Christian influence, supervised and directed by men and women who know God and believe in and love the Chu1'ch and her principles. It shall endeavor to build strong and rugged character, founded not on the phil- osophies and speculations of men, but upon the foundation of Christian principles and virtues, supported and maintained by a conscience, rooted in and based on the eternal Word of God. It shall endeavor to teach the stu- dent to seek out truth and be able to recognize it when and wherever Nine , V'-if-'f f wf '-wax uf ,.,, ,, - . L I . . 4, ' 14. . c found. It shall seek to develop within the student the capacity to think for himself and think correctly. It shall assist and guide the student in his search for knowledge that he may acquire thoroughly a comprehension of those facts and principles which scholars and students through the ages have acquired by long experience and tedious labors, and urge him on in the search of new truths which are still hidden away in the treasuries of the universe, and last but by no means least it shall be the firm purpose of the college to give to each student such a knowledge of Christ as will result in a personal experience of salvation and enable him to have a true conception of his relationship to God, to the Church and to his fellowmen. But what shall the college mean to the Church? Recognizing its place as a child of the Church it shall endeavor to render to it faithful service, giving God the glory and the Church the benefit of its efforts. It must be- lieve in and stand for what the Church believes and stands for, upholding its principles and policies and fostering such an atmosphere as will put the student in sympathy with the spirit of the Gospel and the interpretations given it by the Church. Another question and not the least among them, is the question of its standing among other colleges. If the schools are to help the Church solve her problems they must be such as will attract people to them. By this We do not mean that the popular ideals which many schools foster as at- tractions should be adopted, but the grade of work, the standing and train- ing of instructors, the curriculum, and equipment, must be such as will draw men and women to it and enable them when they go forth from it to take their places in life, whether in school-room, in the pulpit, on Mission field or in business and be able to meet the needs of their day. This shall be the Aim of Goshen College and to this end it shall labor. How successful it has been, only time can tell, but under the leader- ship of Him who has promised to be with us till the end of time we are pressing on believing that He will do for us greater things than we can think or ask.

A .A. c it SENIORS we are seven,-the class of 192.5 of Goshen College. We hold among college senior classes a peculiar place, a position which few in any college have ever held, we are unique in that our class came into being just a few short months ago. A year ago most of us were all but unknown to each other. Last September we came together as a class in Goshen College for the first time. We came from Canada in the north and from Virginia in the south. The garden spot of America met with the fertile prairies of the mid-west. Pennsylvania sent us three, and Illinois and Iowa came forthwith. Our previous college life had been for the most part, diverse and scattered. Two of us were Juniors together in Hesston College, three others had enjoyed school fel- lowship at Harrisonburg, Bethany Bible School of Chicago sent us one man to finish his theological-college course, there was one sole remnant of the former class of twenty-five of Goshen. In the interim since the beginnings of our college careers the different members of our class have had various avocations. We have taught in public schools, we have worked in publishing houses, we have directed city missions, we have been on the faculty at E. M. S., we have conducted trains for Chicago's L, And so from out this heterogeneous background did come to Goshen College the Senior Class of '25. And why? Well, to hold meetings in Room 14 or out on the campus terrace, to enjoy a supper on College Point or to crack nuts at Litwillers. But really, why had we come? Our college motto amplified by our own class en- sign answers that. Why culture, if not for service, and what service, if not that for Christ and the Church! The widening of vision, the deepening of the general un- derstanding, the appreciation of the good, the beautiful, the true, in all of life, the development and apprehension of worthy ideals, the buildings of a Christian character -how worthless femptyj all would be without a correlated performance of responsible duties, capably performed, efficiently absolved, ministered with physical and moral fiber, with an adherence to duty whether it be pleasant or painful! And when that ministration is motivated by the life and love and spirit of Christ and in the interests of His kingdom, it becomes warm with sympathy, radiant with simple devotion, abund- antly fruitful in its activity. 4 It is with this spirit of faithfulness to the best that we have learned and for the greatest end that we now comprehend that we earnestly desire to carry on our ideals of service. The class of '25 comes to the close of its one year's fellowship of labor, and already we catch glimpses in no uncertain outlines of the life tasks of each-various types of Christian service-scattered over the face of the earth-yet in constant fellow- ship of action dominated by our one purpose. It is as an humble prayer that we breathe our motto: Xpzcrrqm :cal 'Ev.v.7vqo'iqz: Twenty-Seve L ff- .- ' --ha-, ., -. I I 'I . fini-L 'TIEIAW K , ,illli ii i l . g. .i'igf.?'E7?, 1 'Z i s .-.. .--. SENIORS CLASS PROPHECY fliaves-dropping on a conversation held in the reception room., Do you think Sauder will ever amount to anything? I'm more worried about Graber. Sauder seems to have strong inclinations along the line of Chemistry. I hear he has entered the National Chemistry Essay contest. He writes a good style seasoned with a freshness of idea at times. I really foresee for him a career as a Chemistg with a few more years of training he will be an authority in his field. Say, did you see Gladys' latest drawing? I do hope she will keep up an active interest in that line of work. Just a few years and she will be famous as an artistg mark what I tell you. She doesn't like to have anyone pry into her future plans. She must have plans of her own. I rather think she doesg but, enough said. What do you think of Mary? She's teaching school next year, isn't she? Yes, that's what she said. She seems to like teaching and no doubt will follow out that line of work for some years. But I've always thought she would be a fine city missionary and social worker. I wouldn't be surprised if that should become her career yet. Who's that laughing?-Oh yes, it's Dorothy. That cheerfulness in her disposition will smooth out many a wrinkle in life. She'll be teaching next year too, I believe. That seems to be her profession. A little more training and experience will place her in a position of leadership in the field of education. Did you hear whether Esther is entering the National Oratorical Contest? No, I didn't hearg she surely would be following out her natural inclinations if she would. I hear she is planning to take up the study of medicine, preparing to be a mis- sionary doctor. After she has her M. D. everyone will know of Dr. Smucker. A pretty good talk Litwiller gave this morning, wasn't it. Yes, he is so original, and there's so much native freshness in his expression. These characteristics will be a great help to him in his work with the people of South America. That's rightg he is sailing for the Argentine this coming fall. He'll be an in- valuable asset to the mission there, not only because of his intellectual qualifications and pleasing personality, but also for his deep spiritual fervor. They know little of Litwiller in the Southern continent now, but in ten years from now thousands will know him by his first name. And what is Graber going to do? There's a little brown bungalow waiting for him in India. He's sailing this fall, and, after a year's language study, will be able to begin to fill his place in that needy field.

In this class we have a combination of the vivaeiousness of youth and the wisdom of maturity with various ages in between. Most of this class has been out in the ranks of life and have borne some of the burclens of life. There are four who have been school teachers, and all have seen some of the world. There are two girls from the south, one man from Canada, two members from Iowa, two from Indiana and one from Ohio. The Juniors have a purpose trueg they are nearing' the goal with a steady, but sure progress. Keenly do they feel the responsibilities which their coming Senior year will place upon them, yet they will never be among those who shrink from bear- ing burrlens of responsibility. One truth this class has learned-the vastness of the field knowledge, the depths of the spring of wisdom, and the nniteness of the human mind. Its members search for wiscloni, but never think that they have attained: they p1'ess onward toward the mark of the high calling of life in Christ. They have realized that to live is Christ.

To the Chinese Public: We take great pleasure in publishing for the first time fragments from archeologi- cal discoveries made by the renowned Dr. Yatsen of Chichow University. His most recent labors have been made in ancient, Grayworn Amercia at a site called Goshen. Remarkable traces of educational achievements are being unearthed. The following translations can be but fragmentary due to the partial decay of the parchments and the faded script. They are taken from records of a Sophomore class. It is not clear just what the significance of the work should convey-whether it is a degree of standing to denote progress of work done in their curriculum or whether it denotes a specialized form of philosophy to which this sect adhered, identical or at least similar to the Greek Sophists of a much earlier date. Jan, 20, 1925 This evening the Sophomores debated with the Freshmen the question whether or not the U. S. should recognize the Russian Soviet government. The Sophomores were in favor of it and we bear witness that the decision was in our favor. 1Dr. Yatsen has a number of investigators working on the basis that the decision at this Sophomore meeting was a turning point in Russian politics. It has been ascertained that in 1957 the U. S. did recognize the Russian Soviet but the direct iniiuence of this body toward that movement is not known.J Hallowe'en evening, 1924 Lulu Smith entertained ' ' B. J. Schertz.

College point was clothed in her very best autumn dress to receive us. And so entertaining! Why we even went canoeing, we ate pickles, sandwiches, hamburger it :fi if skillets, we talked and laughed as children. Socials like this one are conducive to more deeply appreciating each other's friendship. June, 1925 The Sophomores stand loyally for their Alma Mater. The inspiration being taken from the place as we pass from out its doors makes glow the opportunities which we are certain to meet in sterner walks of life. God has led us into new fields of wisdom and understanding, increasing the desires of our hearts to perform His will and to pro- pagate the wondrous Gospel of Christ. fThis is an amazing find. We may now conclusively state that the middle section of ancient America believed in one God, that they followed the worship of the Christ of China. This fragment alone should instigate Us to greater effort in the American Archeological field. One question that arises from this passage is the reference to an Alma Mater,-a sacred woman perhaps that they hold in the same estimation as Mater Mary. This is altogether probable although it would be lamentable since it is the first hint given that their religion is not entirely identical with our beliefs and practices. We hold more fragments in our possession but untranslated. Watch this department for results.j Th irly-eight Q 7' f P Jxzg.-Zxg lf -'L 'ef ff 0 Q ff 1--f ii d X Ervnhman Gilman ?'

We will admit that the first few weeks of school we were rather bewildered, but so was every one else, so no one knew the dif- ference. But we showed that we were made of the right kind of stuff by quietly slipping into our places in the class room, the literary society, on the basket ball floor, and, of course, in the dining hall. To begin the year right, we met in secret session and elected Fat Smith to be President of the class. Then early in October, the entire class accompanied by Pro- fessor Lehman hiked through the woods, across the dam, and along the winding path to College Point, where by the light of a huge bonfire, we played games, told stories, and finally roasted weiners and munched cookies, apples, and other good things. In debating, the Freshman class has an exciting time. The question on the recognition of Soviet Russia was a live one. Not only the boys on the team but other members of the class worked strenuously in collecting material. By the time the de- bate was over, every Freshman was a confirmed anti-Bolshevist. Although We were defeated, we did not mourn long because we knew that we had given the Sophomores a good race. However, in basket ball the Freshmen teams unquestionably are champions of the school. Although the girls played no public games, they usually managed to suc- cessfully compete with any and all other comers. The Freshman boys were not de- feated once, but cooly and impartially vanquished the haughty Sophomores and the ambitious Short-Termers. Taking our record on a whole, we feel that although we have made mistakes and blunders, yet we have also shown a willingness to learn. We trust that the school is the better for our having been here a year. Forty-tivo Arahrmg . l' ff -X ., -X3-1, I-W, , Q JllhvC, I 5 .2 .,l i N A -kd. 9 .. M-iff? T W KU fv- . , , ..

We came from the Argentine Republic, the Dominion of Canada, and the United States. In spite of the fact that we are from such scattered districts, we have common ideals and therefore can sympathize with each other. Every member came with a desire for an education such as is given in Goshen College, which has for its motto Culture for Service. We enjoy athletics and believe that they have their place in the life of every student. Our class is not large enough to have separate teams so we joined forces with the other classes and formed an Academy Basket Ball team. We showed the other classes that we had plenty of pep , not only in basket ball but also on the tennis courts. Our social nature has expressed itself in a variety of ways. None of us shall for- get an evening in October when we gathered around a camp fire near the river, toasted marshmallows, ate and talked, and thus became acquainted with each other. Since then we have had many good times together, although we are only seven. We have tried to show by our efforts here that we realize that only in service can we have genuine joy and that only through His Spirit can we conquer. Hence our motto:- Conquerors through Christ. Four things a man must learn to do, If he would make his record trueg To think without confusion clearly, To love his fellowmen sincerely, To act from honest motives purelyg To trust in God and heaven securely.

ACADEMY THE ACADEMY mf'-Zfxgig, E, the academy students, have only begun in our endeavors to find knowl- ih edge, we have only entered upon our walk in the path that leads to wis- a1fi'fi: 'fi dom, we have only stepped upon the threshold of accomplishment, but who knows what powers lie hidden within us? Although the academy furnishes approximately only one-fourth of the total number of students here this year, yet these students play a la1'ge part in the activities of the school. In athletic spirit we are not lacking. The work of our literary so- cities this year has displayed some of our talent in public speaking, music, interpreta- tive reading, oratory and debate. That we are not forgetful of our social life is shown by our efforts in this line to provide a Wholesome social atmosphere among us. Two socials were given during the year, one for the special benefit of the Short Bible Term students who, during' their stay here, were numbered with those of the academy and proved a valuabe contribution to our spiritual and social life. Our Academy course covers four years of high standard work, and is outlined in accordance with the state requirements for the High School curriculum. Students are thus prepared for entrance to the best colleges and professional schools.

The Bible School as an organized department of Go- shen College is of prime importance in carrying out the purpose for which the College was founded. Since the Mennonite Church does not maintain a Bible Training School or a Seminary, the task of special training in re- ligion is left to her Colleges. The courses of study in the Bible School are open to all the students of the College. A two year curriculum is outlined for students whose in- terest lies entirely in the field of Biblical study. Other students who are pursuing the course leading to the Bachelor of Arts degree may choose Bible as their major subject, and where the major interest lies in other departments the student may choose courses in Bible as elective work. The ultimate source of all Christian thinking is the revelation given by Divine inspiration in the Word of God. It is then the Hrst duty of the student of the Bible to acquire a fair knowledge of the science of the in- terpretation of the Bible. Exegesis is the science of interpretation, and begins with the study of the languages in which we may read the Bible. Words are only the signs of ideas, but they are the most common means we have of expressing ideas. In order to properly interpret the authors of the Bible a knowledge of the language in which they expressed themselves, while not indispensable, is of great value to the student. Such a knowledge will enable the student to appreciate the various shades of meaning that are so evident when he makes a comparison of the various translations of the Bible, and since the most valuable commentaries are based on the Hebrew and Greek of the Old and New Testaments, at least an elementary knowledge of these languages is essential in order to have access to the best exegetical literature. The Bible School is offering courses in New Testament Greek and plans to extend its usefulness to our young people by the addition of courses in Hebrew, the language of the Old Testament. In this way a splendid foundation is laid for the interpretation of both the Old and New Testaments. The addition of a department of Doctrinal Theology is also contem- plated. This department would include the study of Biblical Theology, Systematic Theology, Apologetics and Christian Evidences, with the close- ly related subjects, Christian Ethics and Psychology of Religion. It is essential that the student of the Bible become familiar with the doctrinal Filly-fum I., - . .. bi , .3 z ':, ' e' 57- mg :? Mi-F s., ' 1 ' . ' 4. , BIBLE and ethical content of his faith. The intensely critical temper of the age in which we live demands that an in- dividual should know quite definitely what he believes. He must be fully persuaded in his own mind. Doctrinal Theology is regaining the place it has had in years gone by. The attempt in this department of the Bible School is not to set up a purely theoretical system of doctrine, but to lead the studenttothe discovery of a system of doc- trine that is confirmed by a sound Christian experience. The English Bible courses in both Old and New Tes- taments will be continued, with the possible addition of more work in the Prophetic messages of the Old Testament. New interest has been created in the study of the History of the Mennonite Church and students in the Bible Schootl will find the general course in Church History invaluable in interpreting the place of our own denomination among the Churches of the past and the present. The work of the practical department, Religious Education and Homi- letics ,is finding an increasingly large place in recent yea1's. The question of religious instruction of our youth is of vital importance. Various methods as the Vacation Bible School, The Weekday Church School and more efficient teaching in the Sunday School, have been urged as most adequately meeting the needs for religious instruction in our day. Trained teachers are needed to conduct such schools, and it is the purpose of the practical department of our Bible School to supply instruction for the training of these teachers. In recent years an increasing number of our young men who have completed the Liberal Arts curriculum, have continued their studies in some Seminary. The Bible School has planned a course that will enable any student who wishes to pursue such a seminary curriculum, to com- plete the first year of this advanced study in Goshen College. In this way its usefulness to the Mennonite Church will be greately increased. The supreme aim of the Bible School is to train Christian character and prepare the student for the most efiicient service in the Church. Those who contemplate work in either home or foreign mission fields, as well as work in the home congregations, will find the School helpful to them.

Almost all of the students of the Academy have registered in at least one of these courses this year. A special curriculum made up en- tirely of Elementary Bible courses is outlined each year and offered in a Short Term of four to six Weeks. This year ten courses were offered for a term of six weeks. Thirty-three students enrolled in these courses and en- tered into the work with an interest and industry that was commendable. The Short Term brings young people into school that could not spend an entire year in the institution. Frequently these students remain in the institution and complete the Academy course, and some of them have decided to pursue the college curriculum. In recent years the tendency has been to have a number of Bible courses in our local congregations. Many young people have been in- terested in the study of the Bible in this way, and have been led to take up further study of the Word in some Bible School.

There are numerous things A-.sim that are desirable in the life and activities of a student and many that are helpful and beneficial. There are organizations that a col- lege wants, but none that she needs quite as badly as an organization of the religious life and interests among her students. Especially in a church college, from the very nature of the case, Christianity must have first and highest place among all her other interests. It is this large place that the Y. P. C. A. of Goshen College is called upon to fill. The first organization with which the new student meets as he comes to Goshen College is the Y. P. C. A. Already at the railroad station the Y has its representatives to welcome the new-comers and to initiate them into the circle of friendship. During those trying first days of regis- tration and orientation it is one of the principles of the Y members to be congenial, helpful, and a living exponent of cheer and enthusiasm. The acquaintance social, perhaps the first all-student activity of the school year, is another of the activities of this organization. But the duties of the Y. P. C. A. are not all social and personalg by these it merely means to give outward expression to a living force that lies much deeper: its primary interests are Christian. Article II of the constitution, on PURPOSE reads as follows: It shall be the purpose of this association to bring about concerted action between the Young Men's Division and the Young Women's Divis- ion in their work for the following aims: 1. To lead students to faith in God through Jesus Christ. Fifty-nine ,- 'T ff' , i Aff'rzvlf -','5w+?ga ' .- H, - 2, wg.. ,f eff- 'fra 11. ' - W Q, . .

To lead them into membership and service in the Christian church. 3. To promote their growth in Christian faith and character, es- pecially through prayer and the study of the Bible, as well as to stimulate well-rounded development of mind and body, 4. To promote throughout the College a positive moral and religious spirit. 5. To challenge students to devote themselves, in united effort with all Christians, to making the Will of Christ effective among men, and to extend the Kingdom of God throughout the world. In order to accomplish these noble aims a careful organization of forces is a helpful feature. Consequently all the various phases of the work are assigned to committees, the chairman of each committee being a member of the President's Cabinet and directly responsible to him for the carrying out of his part of the work. The standing committees of the organization as called for in the constitution are: Finance, Membership, Religious Meetings, Bible Study, Mission Study, Social, Extension, and Employment, and it is found that these committees very effectively cover the field. The Devotional Meetings Committee arranged for the regular prayer and devotional meetings as usual during the past year. The devotional meetings were held conjointly, as a rule, at 4:00 ofclock P. M. on Thursday of every week. The chief emphasis in these meetings was, as the name suggests, devotional. Although the practical side was in no case over- looked, the aim of the meetings was worship, meditation, and, on the whole a season of spiritual refreshing. We are glad that this meeting has grown upon the lives of so many of the students and that they feel that it has a most essential place in their spiritual life. The weekly prayer meetings were held every Wednesday evening from 6:10 to 6:40. The object of these meetings was mainly prayer, and afforded a spiritual fellowship and a unity in prayer that has a wholesome effect on spiritual growth. These meetings were arranged for separately by the Y. M. and the Y. W. Committees. The men had only the one week- ly prayer meeting, but the women held these meetings on three evenings of each week. The Bible Study committees arranged for classes in Bible Study dur- ing the first semester of the school year. These classes were, on the whole, well attended, and did their part in helping to apply the message of the Gospel to every-day life and in encouraging a greater interest in Bible Study. To carry out the missionary aim of the association, the Mission Study Committee arranged for Mission Study classes which took the place of the Bible Study classes, during the second semester. It was also a part of their work to keep the Missionary Bulletin Board up to date with news and other material to challenge the students to the great task of giving Christ to the world. The Extension Committee busied itself with carrying the influence of the association beyond the campus. The most noticeable feature of this program consisted in the regular Sunday afternoon service at the city jail.

The committee also arranged for a number of programs during the year in the surrounding communities. There remains yet to be told of the Missionary Drive that was held on February 16. The association believes, not merely in talking mission- ary work and engendering enthusiasm, but in doing as much actual work as possible. It believes that the best way to prepare for missionary work is by being actively engaged in it. The results of the drive were highly successful, ovcr 25700.00 being subscribed, to be used for High School lggifaqintenance in India, India Missionary Support, and for Local Missionary ort. ' The association also procured a number of speakers and visitors to spend some time at the College during the year. Dr. Winfield Scott Hall nationally known lecturer and author, and member of the medical faculty of North Western University, spent the day, February 10, with our stu- dents giving a number of addresses and meeting many of the students in private conference. Then came also George Campbell, traveling secretary for the Student Volunteer Movement, who spent April 29 and 30 with us propogating mis- sionary enthusiasm and inerest. T. K. Hershey from our own Mission in South America spent a few days on the campus during the month of April. Among others whom the association was instrumental in bringing to the College were Miss Burkhalter, Missionary on furlough from India, Miss Lantz, on furlough from Nigeria, Africa, Dr. C. F. Yoder, on furlough from South America, etc. We have not yet mentioned the work of the Employment Committee. This is the agency that brings together the student desiring work and those of the community who desire to utilize this help. This committee was exceptionally active during the past year and proved that the students are in demand as workers and that Work is considered honorable at Go- shen College. The Finance Committee did faithful work in raising the funds for the use of the association and in handling all matters that pertain to finances. . The Social Committee w provided for the acquaint- -S, , ance socials, one at the be- . ' ginning of the year and an- other at the opening of the Short Bible Term, and in- terested itself in looking after the social welfare of the student group. Now there are diversi- ties of gifts, but the same Spirit, and there are differ- ences of administrations, but the same Lord. I Cor. 12:4-5. Sty ,-,A lj V V N .

The motto which is The Evangelization of the World in this Generation cannot be realized until each student has definitely faced and answered the question, What shall I do with my life? There is nowhere a wide awake, energetic young man or woman who does not at some time face this question. Possibilities, brilliantly attractive, lie about him, and unseen forces are pulling from every direction. Sooner or later a decision must be made. And when we consider that the value of one's whole life depends upon this decision, it becomes necessary to make it as early as possible. Too many drift carelessly along and hope that some time they will find themselves in a place where they can be of some service to Christ and the Church. But why waste years of inactiveness? Face the call and answer it today. To aid students in doing this honestly has been the purpose of the band this year. ' One way in which plans for the above work were furthered was by presenting the call from the foreign and home mission fields. Another was by studying the race problem, especially as it presents itself in our own country. And still further time was spent in looking into the great religions of the world. All of this gave a broad background to the student who was eager to find his place in God's great plan. Consecrated lives is the one essential factor. Doors are constantly being opened and calls are going out. For various reasons it was thought best during the course of the year to change the time of meeting from 8:30 on Sunday morning to 7:30 on Saturday evening. This gives a wholesome prelude to the spirit of Sunday worship. The increase in at- tendance indicates that the change was well made. We feel that the organization holds a very important place in the spiritual life of the student body, and our best wishes go with the work. Lift up your eyes and look on the fields, for they are white, already to harvest. FOREIGN VOLUNTEER BAND DORA SHANTZ, President Among those who have decided to live definitely for Christ and His Kingdom some of us feel God's leading to more distant parts of His kingdom. Accordingly the student Volunteer Band is composed of those students and members of the faculty who have said, God permitting, it is my purpose to witness for Him in the uttermost parts of the earth. The Band meets each week on Monday evenings in an informal way for Mutual fellowship and the discussion of the problems that face foreign missionaries. Some time was spent in studying the book Contacts with non-Christian Cultures. Al- though it is our purpose to serve over seas we realize that it takes no less real Chris- tian living or consecration of less degree to serve at home. The biggest investment of our life was made when we decided that it was our purpose, if God permitted, to become a foreign Missionary. The biggest reinvestment Six! y-t wo ,. rift :if , .,,V i x.

YE ARE THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD. His lamps we are To shine where He shall say, And lamps' are not for sunny rooms, Nor for the light of dayg But for dark places of the earth, Where shame and wrong and crime have birth, And for the murky twilight gray, Where wandering sheep have gone astray And where the lamp of faith grows dim, And souls are groping after Him. And as sometimes a flame we see, Clear, shining, through the night So dark we cannot see the lamp- But only see the light- So may we shine, His love the flame, That men may glorify His name. STUDENTS' COUNCIL MELVIN GINGERICH, President OLIVE WYSE, Secretary In order that a college may attain to its highest usefulness there must be hearty and sympathetic co-operation among the students and a spirit of genuine fellowship between the students and faculty. The Students' Council is an organization at Goshen College which has for its purpose the attainment of this cooperation and fellowship. In former years the Council has done much in helping solve the many problems which arise' in student life. It has been successful, too, in developing higher stand- ards of conduct among the students. This year the council working with the Dean has again endeavored to accomplish its objective giving special attention to the problem of building up a strong Christian school spirit. When the Students' Council was first organized at Goshen College in 1905-1906 its membership consisted of a representative from each class and from each of the stu- dent organizations. At the present time it includes four Seniors, three Juniors, two Sophomores, one Freshman, two members from the Academy classes, one member from the Y. W. C. A. Cabinet, and one from the Y. M. C. A. Cabinet. Si.1'ty-Harm: MENNONITE HISTGRICAL SOCIETY ' . e 'six -,i zur-ich, 1525 Goshen 1925 , .2SiN T Q. An awakening interest in the history of our own Mennonite church characterizes the last years. A generation ago those who prized .,.., our history were few and those who knew it I still fewer. But in these days the number of both is increasing. For a church which is bound so closely to her history, and whose present faith and life have been so determined by the past, it is remarkable that this awaken- ing has come so late and so slowly. Of the value of knowing history little needs to be said here except that the church is gradually coming to realize that for sympathetic ap- preciation and intelligent loyalty to her his- toric faith and life there is scarcely one thing more potent thanvthe knowledge and under- standing of the origin and development of that faith and life. To promote such knowledge and under- standing is one of the foremost privileges and duties of a church school. The Goshen Col- lege Mennonite Historical Society is primarily simply a union of students and faculty to this end. Its most immediate work is the promotion of Mennonite-historical knowledge in the College community-this in supplement to courses on Mennonite History which may be offered in the history de- partment. The scope of history covered includes all periods from 1523 to 1925, and all lands wherein Mennonites have been or are found, as well as all phases of their life and faith. But the Society also aims to play a part in the wider dissemination of this knowl- edge outside the college community, throughout the church and to the general public. Still more it aims to contribute to research in Mennonite History, both directly and in- directly, and to the publication of the results of research. To this end it expects to cooperate with all other agencies working in the field. The Society was first organized in the Spring of 1921, but had a rather moribund existence until the College closed for the year of 1923-24. In October of 1924 it was reorganized. A most lively interest in the program of the society was manifested by a forty per cent enrollment of the college community, including faculty and students. The membership at present is forty-five. It is particularly fitting that in this year, the quadricentennial year of the church, the society should be revived and launch out on a program of active work. Four hundred years ago, in January, 1525, that little band of thorough-going uncompromising Bible-Christians of Zu- rich, Switzerland, whom Mennonites may truly call their forefathers in the faith, took the final significant step by which they broke with the Zwinglian Reforma- tion and organized themselves as a free brotherhood of believers. It was the restoration of apostolic baptism on con- fession of faith, lapsed for over a thou- .IYIIWY .. Sixty-four sand years, tin the meanwhile infant baptism alone had been the practicej, l - . .I which was the outward mark of the brotherhood. Some time after the twen- tieth of January, 1525, Conrad Grebel baptized George Blaurock in the home of a brother in the course of a devotional meeting: Blaurock then baptized the en- tire company present. So began the movement which in spite of much suf- fering and martyrdom has maintained itself and spread to three continents, if , Europe, America, and Asia, under the generic name of Mennonitism. The sole aim of the forefathers was to follow closely in the footsteps of Christ and the apostles. Although the movement began in a small group in Zurich it spread because of persecution and through missionary preaching over north Switze1'land, South Germany and Tyrol, finally as far as Austria and Moravia. Persecution ultimately exterminated nearly all the scattered groups of believers except those who found a haven with the tolerant nobles of Moravia, and adapted the communistic pattern of life instituted by Jacob Hutter, about 15330, and small scattered groups in the 1'emoter corners of the canton of Bern, who had remained absolutely true to the original principles. Thus from the first center at Zurich developed two groups, the Hutterian Brethren and the Swiss Brethren, both of whom have maintained themselves to the present day. Of the former several thousand are still to be found in communistic societies in the lla- kotas, and the prairie provinces of Canada. Of the latter come all the present Men- nonites of Switzerland, France, fAlsace, Lorrainel, South Germany, Galicia, and the Mennonite innnigration to America before 1870, most of which is to be found in the United States east of the Mississippi and in Ontario. The latter is composed of the following groups,-the Mennonites, Amish, Mennonite Brethren in Christ, Central Illinois Conference, Eastern and Middle District Conferences of the General Confer- ence Mennonites and several smaller bodies. The total of the descendants of the Swiss brethren exceds two hundred thousand. Goshen College and its constituency belong to this group. About five years after the Zurich group became active, a similar faith and life began to be taught and lived in the lower Rhine region and in East and West Fries- land. Under the pressure of persecution and led by certain erratic leaders a portion of the group which had adopted this faith and life in increasingly largei' numbei's was led astray into a militant chiliasm and in the course of time perished by the sword which it had taken, both in lVestphalia fMunsterJ and in certain Dutch dis- tricts. Only scattered remnants of these people persisted for some time. The smaller group who had not been led astray but remained faithful to the or- iginal principles was shepherded by Obbe and llirk Philips of Leeuwarden, Friesland, who received in 1537 the able assistance of Menno Simons, a recently converted Catho- lic Pastor, and Leona1'd Bouwens. Together tlater without Obbe Philipsi these men as elders and missionaries cared for thi1'ty years and more for the growing group of faithful brethren whom the world now came to call Mennonites. Soon their num- ber increased by the thousands through- out the whole of the Netherlands, and the north German littoral as far as Riga. This group has also maintained itself to the present day in large numbers, chief- ly in Holland, Northeastern Germany, falso some north German cities.J South Russia, inner Siberia, and in the wheat belt of the United States and Canada. Sixty-,ri re The immigration to the latter district, tOklahoma to Manitoba and Saskatchewan, al- so west in California and Washingtonj has come since 1870. This group today numbers approximately fifty thousand. Altogether the descendants of the original Low German -Dutch Mennonite group number today possibly 200,000. The Society has attempted during the year in monthy programs to bring infor- mation concerning this manifold history to the college community. It has also brought in these programs information on current historical work, research and publication. It has also through purchase and through gift added approximately fifty volumes to the Historical Library. All but a small per cent of its funds, or nearly S50 has been spent for this purpose. The work of the society in promoting research has barely begun. Two members of the Society, Prof. Correll and Prof. Bender, are preparing for publication by the society at an early date a biography of Conrad Grebel which is also to contain tran- slations of all his available letters and writings. The important work of translating the fifty or more Latin letters of Grebel is being done by Edward Yoder, at present at Iowa State University, Iowa City, Iowa. The society is also cooperating in raising funds for the support of the transcrip- tion and editing of a very important manuscript doctrinal treaties by Pilgram Mar- beck, a leader of the South German Brethren 1530-1550, which has never been publish- ed. Prof. Dr. Loserth of Graz, Austria, is doing the editorial work. In recognition of distinguished contributions to Mennonite History, the society has elected as corresponding members the following Mennonite Historians: Christian Hege, Frankfort A. M. Germanyg Christian Neff, Weierhof, Germany, J. M. Leenderts, Koog ad Zaan, Holland, John Horsch, Scottdale, Pa., C. Henry Smith, Bluffton, Ohio. The Society is also cooperating in the preparation of the quadricentennial pro- gram of the College which is to take place on Tuesday, June 9, of Commencement week. The librarian, Prof. Correll has recently published in Germany a book on the sociological aspect of Swiss-South German Mennonite History which will be of in- terest to many because of the interesting information it contains concerning certain Mennonite families, as well as the emphasis on the Swiss Mennonite emigrant as a Model farmer particularly in Alsace and the Palatinate. The book is entitled Das Schweizerscher Taufer Mennonitenthumf' Officers of the Society for this year are: President, Prof. H. S. Bender, Vice-Pres. Melvin Gingerichg Secretary, Dorothy Kemrerg Treasurer, C. L. Graber, Librarian, Prof. E. H. Correll. EXTRACTS FROM THE CONSTITUTION Art. I.

We have, however, been handicapped this year, and, as a result, debating has been somewhat restricted. The first difiiculty was encountered when an inquiry was made regarding a place in the Indiana Debating League. Since Goshen had been out of the league one year it was found impossible to obtain a place in a triangle, for most of the schedules are arranged previous to the opening of colleges in the fall. The debates between the Juniors and Seniors and between the Freshmen and Sophomores are an important part of the debating tradition. The Freshman and Sophomores early selected teams and a Faculty Committee on Debate and Oratory was appointed to direct the work. After some deliberation it was decided that the small size of the two upper classes would make it impossible to proceed with arrangements for another debate. A new' feature was introduced-the provision for a meeting of the contesting teams and the committee, after the debate, for criticism and suggestion by the supervising committee and the coaches. This is a constructive step which should tend to produce an improvement in debating methods and style. On December nineteenth the Freshman-Sophomore Debate was held. The question was, Resolved: That the United States should recognize the Russian Soviet Govern- ment. The Sophomores upheld the proposition, the Freshmen opposed it. The Fresh- men seemed to have a slight advantage during the opening speeches, but in the rebuttals the tables were turned, the Sophomores displaying a solidarity and organization of argument that won for them the decision of the judges. The judges were County Superintendent of Schools Miller, Professor Gerig of the High School, and Dean Oyer. Sophomore Team-Stalter, Cagit., Zook, Martin, Miller, Alt.

Legg- ' How the world would listen to your songs, how they would admire your works of art and how they would weep at your magic verse! You have never since had aspirations quite as enthralling, none that made the earth seem quite so much a veritable paradise while yet it lay a place of opportunity. And so it was that the brush and water colors were well used even if only on traced drawings and portions from the Sears Roebuck catalog. Your songs iioated at dusk from some barn yard gate and hearing a bit of Hawaiian music at some neighbor's victrola set you search- ing for prices of ukuleles. Then the practical question-whence the money? Chickens and pigs! How a little property of that kind would swell our hearts. Goethe in the midst of his lyrical compositions, Browning in the depths of his thought, Burns with a love song trembling on his lips could not have gotten more real enjoyment out of life than we did writing doggerel phrases praising the chickens and the pigs, they which would supply the ukulele money. But somehow the money was never used for that. Coleridge said, Hope without an object cannot live. How fortunate that the objects were numberless in those days. Do you find that those dreams have fallen away with those trailing clouds of glory which could not remain either? Do you find yourself in the light of a common day? To my mind the greatest justification for a literary society in Goshen College is to give new energy, new inspiration to the disheartened soul made so by the years of unfruitful trials and longings to attain these goals, to develop that aesthetic taste for the higher arts,-in short the literary so- ciety must first of all awaken a keen sense of appreciation. Our struggling attempts at self-development seem somewhat humorous upon re- flection. We play the role of editor to some paper, then criticize Chaucer, then plead the cause of mathematics, philosophy, English Knot as a unit, but individually and most earnestly.J To express appreciation for that abstract mathematics which pro- fesses to be the clearest and simplest of all sciences but yet is so elusive to him, fand still retain the good will of the mathematicianj the lover of English, must truly be clever, for he invariably tends to become ironical. It seems strange that mathema- ticians who know the exact value of fifty cents should deem a literary society at all practicable, but we are glad that in Goshen College there are no separate societies for persons with diverse whims. The mingling of individual intensities gives a spicy, invigorating force to the literary society. 'But to continue-we eulogize the superior, we denounce and arraign what we consider inferior, we discuss relative merits of poets in our own characteristic styles until Samuel Johnson in his London Coffee House does not seem half as queer and we feel that after all we have a cause in common with him. But of course we practical Americans must of necessity stress factors in our literary work other than those that bring appreciation. To perpetuate the interests of fifteen or twenty individuals one can easily see that the social mingling of the group is necessary to bring about an interchange of sympathy, cultivate firmer friendship, awaken enthusiasm and to break up the deadly formality so apt to disease the best lit- erary attempts.

Of course his arrival at the coffee house each morning meant primarily that he had come to air his con- victions rather than to demonstrate any food capacity though much might be said on his capacity. As Literary members we cannot greatly admire his etiquette, but we must have great respect for his literary interests and the enthusiasm with which he promulgated it. To appreciate in full what we mean by the social mingling of the group one should of necessity be a participant in the entertainments given by one society for another. Whether it was the Ciceronians with their pop corn and apples, the Philomathians with their watermelons, the Adelphians with their chicken and a dozen things following in its' wake, the Avons, Vesperians, Auroras with eats fully as feasible, whether 'twas formal or informal, whether it occurred by night or day, in verdant woods, by rushing dam, in decorated halls,-whatever or wherever is not of as great consequence to us now as is the memory we hold that their friendship found expression and common interests refreshment. One more aim of our literary societies must not be overlooked, a point on which Dr. Johnson was very emphatic-that is effective delivery of that which we appreciate. Again we cannot rigidly follow the etiquette of this great literary critic, his delivery was extremely individualistic, and although our modern literary society critics give some kindly consideration to personal freakish traits that creep out consciously or un- consciously in delivery, yet almost weekly we are informed of correct position for hands or feet or perchance the most logical location for pencils or notebooks while in the stage of action. We come to look upon originality as a gift, ease in delivery a treasure, clearness and openness of expression just dues to those about us. The literary work during the past year has not been in vain. Appreciation, ef- fective delivery, social mingling-these were our goal, and though none of us may ever adorn halls of fame as great poets, grand artists, composers of music that moves the heart, the year's work together has nevertheless been of real profit as well as pleasure, May the literary societies long continue to Hourish.

Aristotle believed that music has power in the formation of character and should therefore never be omitted in the education of the young. Mil- ton, one of the greatest educators of mankind, in his Tractate on Educa- tion gives music its place as an influence on character. Shakespeare, the great Elizabethan poet, in his plays voices the beauties of music to the world by referring to it one hundred and forty times. Plato said, Educa- tion shall begin with music, which includes the study of literature and gymnastics. Comenius, another great educator, believed that music is a potent factor in the forming of character. He taught that children at an early age should be given musical opportunities. He wrote as follows: Hln the third year the sacred music of daily use may be introducedg namely that received as a custom, to sing before and after dinner, and when pray- ers are begun and ended. On such occasions they ought to be present and to be accustomed to attend and conduct themselves composedly. It will also be expedient to take them to public worship, where the whole as- sembly unites in singing the praises of God. In the fifth it will be time to open their mouths in hymns and praise of God, and to use their voices for the glory of their Creator. In accord with the statements of these educators we believe that music is the art which more than any other gives expression to what may be called the feeling side of our naturel'-the de- velopment of our inner self, or as one has aptly put it, the development of the soul. Quite aside from its place in the curriculum as a subject of educa- tional value music furnishes one of the very best and most wholesome forms of recreation. Relaxation is naturally sweet after the pain of toil, and intellectual enjoyment should contain an element not only of the noble but also of the pleasant. All men agree that music is one of the most pleasant things of life, and its power may be expressed in this that very few great men in history have failed at some time to pay homage to it. The choral works of the great masters, as Well as those of lesser lights exe1't a healthy and ennobling influence upon those who will enter heartily into the spirit of them. All three of the organizations for chorus singing at Goshen College- namely the Philharmonic, Men's, and Ladies' choruses have studied the best choral music in their regular weekly rehearsals, and one of the aims has been to make acquaintance with the highest type of sacred music pub- lished at present. Works have been studied from Handel, Hayden, Mozart, Gounod, as well as those from modern times such as Sullivan, Stainer, Tschaikovosky and Rachmaninoif. The members of these organizations, have in the main been regular in their attendance at rehearsals and have manifested a spirit such as is conducive to good chorus singing. In all of these choruses the singing has been a cappella. Sczwntgl-si.1' , me. ' ' 5 iTV? 'f?ffi3 f. ,H :fin -, - V rr.

ATHLETICS ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION ALBERT HERSHBERGER, President MILTON SMITH, Secretary WALLACE MILLER, Treasurer ELLIS ZOOK, Custodian All the activities of a school may be classified under the two heads, work and play. In fact this is true not only of a school but of all other in- stitutions. Similarly there are only two forms of inactivity namely, rest and sleep. When one notes that everything that is done is due to a com- bination of work, play, rest and sleep it induces him to study further these four things and discover their need and relationship. Books on health and hygiene have been written stressing this and that point, but these four points have always come in for their share of dis- cussion. It should be emphasized that these forms of activity and in- activity must bear the proper relationship to one another, that is, they must be properly balanced. One cannot spend his entire time at work and be most efficient or of greatest use, no more than one can spend his entire time sleeping and expect to accomplish great things. In short, if a person does not attach the proper values to the different phases of life he will fail. Of the two forms of activity, work and play, the former of course should be more strongly emphasized. One should go to school with the definite purpose of working hard. He who takes the snap courses is likely some day to meet things which will require ce1'tain qualities which snap courses failed to develop in him. But one's school work should not become so consuming as to crowd out the other form of activity, play. Very few persons are in danger of becoming what may be styled as grinds But there are some who do not get their play because they would rather spend their leisure in idle- ness which is indeed a form of dissipation. No part of a personis entire make up is benefitted by idleness, but to a certain extent it is positively ruinous to body, soul and mind. The mind becomes sluggishg the will becomes weak. One should carefully guard against this unnecessary evil and learn to improve the time which is at his disposal. That person is the happiest and most efficient in his work who spends some time in recreation which is another term for play. However the play element must enter in order that the recreation may be really beneficial. Two requisites to recreation are, enjoyable emotions and carefreeness. If these elements are present genuine benefit will be derived, whatever form the recreation may take. There is a large gymnasium on the campus which serves the students excellently as a place to get their exercise. During the winter the gym was in use practically every day. Each week witnessed a public basket- ball game. These were usually well attended and considerable enthusiasm was manifested. The Frosh and Sophs and the Auroras and Adelphians were generally the contestants. Seve1'al ex-student games were played, one a victory for the college team and one for the ex-students. These games have a definite place in a school. A student who pores over his books all day must get away from them and do something else in order to maintain his health. And it seems natural to turn to some form of recreation which involves skill and wholesome rivalry. And if athletic games are put in their proper place in a school and kept there they will serve a very useful purpose in the lives of the students. Sci-only-eight M ss ATHLETICS TENNIS ASSOCIATION ' ELLIS ZOOK, President WILLIAM SWARTZENDRUBER, Secretary ALBERT HERSHBERGER, Treasurer Tennis is, without a doubt, the most popular and extensively played game in Goshen College. With a small student body, playing only intra- mural athletics, no other game so well fits the needs of the school. Tennis requires no large teams nor expensive equipment, anyone can play, if only he takes the time. Yet, tennis requires skill, accuracy, and quick think- ing. It is not the most strenuous of games, but when well and aggressively played it aiords ample exercise and recreation. On the other hand, tennis is a game readily adaptable to the players, and it is as popular for an hour of social recreation as for a skilled athletic sport. The Tennis Association was not organized early enough to arrange a Fall Tournament, but it was soon seen that there were many experienced players among us. As soon as the snows were gone this Spring the courts were worked into fine shape, and the great interest that has been shown in the game indicates that the tournaments will be hotly contested. There will be boys' and girls' singles tournaments, and probably inter-class and inter-society contests. It is early to predict the winners, but Albert Hersh- berger, Ellis Zook, Wallace Miller, and Howard Musselman are among the best and will probably provide some of the closest games in the tourna- ments.

U 1894 - GOSHEN COLLEGE - 1925 f,ij,,'55lEILlH'OSHEN COLLEGE had its beginnings in Elkhart, Indiana, in a private 'fi ' 'M school conducted by llr. H. A. Mumaw, a practising physician. This school, ilfg5jg.4's' known as the Elkhart Institute, was the result of an interest in the edu- cation of Mennonite young people, which was beginning to be felt more keenly by a few individuals in the church. The school opened August 21, 1894, with five students, and F. A. Hosmer, Ph. B., as the only teacher. During the year further courses were begun, and another teacher was called in to help to do the teaching. The Elkhart Institute Association was formed in 1895. Articles of association were drawn up and signed by fifteen Mennonite brethren May 16, 1895, to be sent to the Secretary of State requesting incorporation. These men were J. S. Hartzler, Herman Yoder, F. W. Brunk, Samuel Yoder, W. P. Coffman, A. C. Kolb, John O. Martin, Noah Lehman, N. S. Hoover, Il. ll. Miller, Jonathan Kurtz, C. P. Yoder, J. S. Coffman, Il. J. Johns, and H. A. Mumaw. Final organization took place July 9, 1895. The company began with a capital stock of S410,000.00. The control of the school was in the hands of a Board of nine trustees, elected by the stockholders. H. A. Mumaw was the first President of the Board of Trustees, with A. C. Kolb, as secretary. At first the tendency was to make the work mainly commercial. It was soon urged by a few that thc school should aim more dennitely to meet the needs of Mennonite young people as a whole. In accordance with this desire the Board of Trustees was reorganized, and J. S. Coffman was elected President on April 11, 1896. On June 1, 1896 J. S. Hartzler became secretary of the Board of Trustees. School opened, under this new management, on August 27, 1895, in a rented building in Elkhart, Indiana. It was immediately felt that permanent quarters must be obtained, so it was decided that funds should be collected for the erection of a suitable building. These funds were to be secured by selling stock in the Association. The needed money was obtained, and the new school building located on Prairie St.,on the corner of what is now Wagner Ave., was completed and ready for use by Feb. 11, 1896. The first catalogue was issued in 1896. At that time there were four regular teachers listed in the catalogue, with one assistant. The course outlined was divided into several departments, the chief work being done in the Commercial, Academic, and Bible departments. The work as given was mainly commercial. There were a few Academic and a few Bible students. A new period in the history of the school began with the coming of N. E. Byers, B. S., as principal, in 1898. Just before this time the school had been conducted by Willis E. Tower, B. S., as principal. He had outlined the course of study, and had successfully organized the work of the school. The new principal took up the work at the point at which it had been left by the previous principal. The faculty for 1898 consisted of five regular teachers, and two others who did part time work. All were Mennonites, and in sympathy with trying to make the school distinctly a Christian in- stitution. The Elkhart Institute now became a well equipped Academy, giving work for the completion of entrance requirements in our better colleges and universities. The main course given was called the Latin-scientific course. In 1901 a change was made in the management of the school. At this time an attempt was made to make the in- stitution more representative of the church at large. Up to this time the Board of Trustees had been made up largely of representatives of the local constituency. Now the Board was in- creased from nine to twenty-five mem- bers, and these members were so se- ' ' lected as to represent the various con- Eiflhty-four ference districts of the United States and Canada. Because of the lack of room for ex- pansion it was felt that another location should be found for the school. A com- mittee for the recommendation of a more suitable place was appointed as early as 1901. The offer of the city of Goshen, Indiana, to furnish 510,000.00 for build- ing purposes was accepted in May, 1903, and on June 12th of the same year the present location just south of the city limits of Goshen, Indiana, was accepted as the new home of the institution. When school opened September, 29, 1903, the frame building now known as East Hall, alone, was ready for use. This building was then used as a dormitory for women students. Temporarily the first iioor was used for class rooms, and the second Hoor for rooms for students. The basement was used as a dining hall. The main build- ing known as the Administration Building, was finished as rapidly as possible, and was dedicated January 8, 1904. The last catalogue of the Elkhart Institute, printed in May, 1903, with announce- ments for the year 1903-04, outlines for the first time a two-year college course. Specific courses were outlined in History, English, Greek, German, Latin, Mathematics, Philosophy, and Science. During the first school year in Goshen there were 273 stu- dents enrolled in the school. From this number there were twelve who finished the two year college course, and ten who finished the regular Academy course. Nineteen students were registered in the college department for the year. With the year 1903- 04, then, the history of the school as an institution giving work of college grade be- gins. Goshen College was now a Junior College. In order to have the College entirely under the control of the Mennonite Church, directly, at the annual meeting of the stockholders of The Elkhart Institute Association in June, 1905, the first steps were taken in an effort to organize the Mennonite Board of Education. At the fourth Mennonite General Conference, held in Berlin fnow Kitchenerj, Ontario, in 1905, definite organization of the Mennonite Board of Edu- cation took place on November 16, 1905. Due to the educational outlook of President Byers, and his corps of teachers, the work in the college department was constantly strengthened. By the end of the Junior College period in 1909 the list of students in the college department had increased to thirty-seven for the year. The faculty, according to the catalogue of May, 1909, con- sisted of sixteen members, many of whom had done considerable graduate work. The beginning of the four year college course came earlier than anyone in the college had anticipated. Students for some years had been finishing the junior college course and had urgently requested further work without going to another institution. Parents too had urged that the full four year cou1'se be begun. It was due to this need that the work was finally begun in the fall of 1909. The Iirst class of five gradu- ates received the B. A. degree in June, 1910. The nine main departments into which the college work was now divided were Bible, Biology, Chemistry and Physics, English, German, Greek and Latin, History and Social Sciences, Mathematics and Astronomy, and Philosophy and Education. The school had well prepared men at the head of each of these departments. Goshen College was at this time, from the educational point of view, more nearly the kind of college desired than at any previous period. However, on June 25, 1913, President Byers, feeling that his work for the college was completed, resigned to take effect at the end of the summer term. On June 10, 1913, John E. Hartzler was elected as the new President and Business Manager of the school. Eighty-five During the period immediately following 1913 continued emphasis was placed up- on expansion, both in reference to curriculum and material equipment. In 1915 ar- rangements were made for the beginning of courses in Agriculture. In 1916 work was begun in Home Economics. In 1915, also, the splendid new Science Hall was built, and equipped for work in Biological Sciences, Physical Sciences, Home Economics and Agriculture. The college grew rapidly during these years. Outwardly everything seemed pros- perous. But President Hartzler resigned his position February 5, 1918, to take effect immediately. George J. Lapp, missionary to India, being in America on furlough at this time, was asked to accept the Presidency of the College. President Lapp con- tinued with the college, as President, until June, 1919, when arrangements were made to relieve him so that he could 1'etu1'n to his Work in India. The constructive work of this period was the beginning of a vigorous financial campaign, which was ultimately to clear the college of debt, and to begin a permanent endowment for running expenses. H. Frank Reist was elected President of Goshen College on March, 27, 1919. Owing to ill health President Iteist's work with the institution was of short duration, for he was compelled to leave the college February 23, 1920. The most significant happening during the year was the recognition, on February 13, 1920, by the Indiana State Board of Education, that Goshen College was now a standard college. Upon the resignation of H. F. Reist, I. R. Iletweiler, dean of the Bible school, became Acting President. During the winter of 1921-1922 through the combined ef- forts of faculty, students, and friends of the school, a large frame gymnasium was built. In the spring of 1922, there were twenty-eight students who graduated from the College, and received the B. A. degree. This was the largest class in the history of the school. ' At the meeting of the Mennonite Board of Education on June 10, 1922, Daniel Kauffman was elected as President of the College. President Kauffman was with the school during this one year only, for at its regular meeting in the spring of 1923 the Mennonite Board of Education decided to close Goshen College, temporarily. Plans, however, were made for the reopening of Goshen College in September, 1924. Sanford C. Yoder was immediately elected as President and was instructed to make the needed plans for the opening of the school at that time. The plans of the Board of Education were carried out, and the college was open- ed again September 17, 1924, with a faculty of fifteen members. The administrative officers of the college are Sanford C. Yoder, President, Noah Oyer, Dean, and C. L. Graber, Business Manager. The student body for the year numbers 148 members of whom eight graduate and will receive the B. A. degree. Courses are now being given in Music, Bible, Academy, Teacher Training and College work. In keeping with the wishes of the Mennonite Board of Education, as expressed by resolution at its regular annual meeting in 1922, the administration is emphasizing the strengthen- ing of the work in Bible. For the present year one teacher gives full time to Bible teaching. Next year the plan is to have two men to give full time to the courses in Bible. In addition, as soon as the work is needed, plans are to give one year of graduate work in Bible, for those having received the B. A. degree. The work of the re-organization of the college has now been completed, and it is conndently expected that the college, from this time on, will be able to serve the church acceptably. 1 SILAS HERTZLER.

Q, . N , ALUMNI FRANK S. EBERSOLE, President ANNA YODER, Secretary The Alumni Association of Goshen College and Elkhart Institute, or- ganized in 1901, at present has nearly five hundred members, of whom slightly more than half are A. B. graduates of the last fifteen years. Among the members of the association may be found preachers, mission- aries, college presidents, university professors, a very large number of high school teachers, business men, agriculturalists, horticulturalists, chemical engineers, merchants, bankers, physicians, and various other persons holding positions of trust and profit. The great body of Alumni represent a body of earnest serious-minded men and women who are play- ing their part in the world's work well, and often rendering a service far above the average. The college and the student body, as the end of an- other year's work comes, and still others step out of college halls into the ranks of the alumni, look out into the world with gratitude and respect to those who have gone before and taken their place in the world, fitted to render service because of the training received in the institution, and wel- come them all back again to commencement and the annual reunion. The alumni of an institution are vitally interested in the progress and success of their Alma Mater, and especially is this true of the Goshen Col- lege Alumni. They rejoice to know that again, after a temporary eclipse ofa year for reorganization, the college is moving forward and has carried to completion a successful year's work, and the association wel- comes into its ranks the new-born Alumni, challenging them to be worthy representatives of their Alma Mater, truly living out the motto of the college, Culture for Service in its highest spiritual sense. What the alumni expect of Goshen College is that a strong standard institution be built up, equal to any in the quality of its instruction, with adequate buildings, equipment and staff. But in addition to this the alumni expect that the atmosphere of the institution will always be such as to make possible and secure the flowering of the best type of manhood and womanhood. The Alumni interpret this best type in terms of full- rounded genuine Christian living consecrated to meet the needs of the world. They also interpret in terms of the essential characteristics of the four-hundred-year-old heritage that is the precious possession of the in- stitution today through the church which has given birth to it and sup- ported it these thirty years. Their ardent desire is that those ideals of personal character which have always characterized the institution and its alumni be held high. Their purpose is to play their part in making this possible and in the pro- motion of a bigger and better Goshen College. Eighty-sev -Q - ' f. f '.

They were Bro. J. A. Ressler and Bro. tDr.J and Sister W. B. Page. The task before them was a responsible one and after considerable traveling and investigation they located at Dhamtari in the Central Provinces, the center of a needy field. This was on the 22nd of November, 1899. The field comprises an area of approximately 4,000 square miles with more than 600,000 people. Our first missionaries came to India without any preconceived notions of the lines of missionary effort to be undertaken. Arriving as they did at the close of the famine of 1897 followed by another and more severe one in 1900 the nature of the work was easily determined. At the close of the terrible famine of 1900 they found on their hands two large orphanages both of them at Sundarganj, the first mission station. The missionaries had no choice in the matter for the orphans must be fed and clothed and educated and trained to work and be given religious instruction. Their health must be looked after and the opening of evangelistic and educa- tional and industrial and medical as well as orphanage work took place before they had much time to plan for these lines of mission work. A large work could not long be maintained at the restricted quarters at Sundarganj hence in 1903, a new station was opened at Rudri and the girls' orphanage was removed to this place from Sundarganj. In 1905 another new station was opened at Balodgahan where op- portunities for farming were made available to our young men and women. Then followed the evangelistic station, Sankra, in 1910, and Ghatula ev- angelistic station in 1916, and Mahodi evangelistic station in 1920. Medi- cal work had been maintained from the beginning of the mission work at Dhamtari. The first medical work was in charge of Dr. Page, but it was necessary for him to return to America after only a short time in India and the work was carried on as best it could until 1910 when Dr. Esch ar- rived in India. There are at present three missionary doctors on the field. The general hospital is located at Dhamtari while each of the other main stations maintains a medical dispensary where thousands of patients re- ceive treatment for their ailments. Industrial work consists of agricul- ture, weaving, carpentry and sewing. The industrial school is wholly sup- ported by the Government and successful students receive a certificate as well as a free set of tools from the Government. The educational work takes pupils from the primary through the high school grade. Leper work is also carried on. For some years a line new asylum has been in the process of construction which when completed will be one of the best equipped and best located asylums in India. The work is financed l'fi'lhln1-r'iqh.t in Inu , if by the Missions to Lepers who own the property while the Government gives large grants in aid of the work. There are at present about 280 in the leper community including the untainted children of leper parents. Besides these main stations above mentioned there are six district primary schools and eleven sub-evangelistic stations. The work at these places is in direct charge of Indian Christian workers supervised by mis- sionaries appointed by the mission to that task. Exclusive of the Leper Asylum which belongs to the Mission to Lepers the church at home own property in India to the amount of approximately 35127,000.00. The total number of missionaries sent forth by the Mission Board to the work in India is 38. Of this number four have been called by the Heavenly Father to higher service. Others have been obliged to return to the home land on account of ill health so that at the close of the first quarter of a century of mission work at Dhamtari and vicinity there are only 22 missionaries to take care of the work. The task in connection with the orphanages and schools and the enormous opportunities in connection with evangelistic work as well as the medical and leper work is far be- yond the strength of such a small force. The establishing of the church was kept uppermost in the minds of the missionaries. It was no easy matter to call out from among the ignor- ant superstitious, idol worshippers those who would carry on the work of God in an organized church, but God was gracious and greatly blessed the work so that at the close of the twenty-five year period under review there has grown a brotherhood of about twelve hundred members wor- shipping in seven different congregations. The total Christian community is nearly two thousand. Three of these congregations Worship in com- modious church buildings while the rest hold their services in school houses or improvised quarters. The first conference convened at Balodgahan in 1910 and annual conferences have been held ever since. The Indian Chris- tian leaders have taken hold of the work in a very encouraging manner and without their help and co-operation it would have been impossible to carry on the work of the church. As the Indian church began to appreci- ate her responsibilities a desire grew to do more evangelistic work and as a result of this Willingness two mission stations were opened and are maintained wholly by the India Mennonite Conference. -J.

MENNONITE MISSIONS IN SOUTH AMERICA The first public Gospel Services were conducted by the Mennonite missionaries at Pehuajo, Argentina, on April 27, 1919. From the very first the work grew and on October 10, of the same year, the first baptismal services were held. Soon the Gospel was carried to other points and today there is organized work in the six following tiiowns, Pehuajo, Trenque Lauquen, Santa Rosa, Carlos Casares, Madero, and Tres omas. Up to the present date, fourteen missionaries have been sent to the field. Two more are to be sent this fall. GROWTH The 1924 Report shows that there are 171 members in all. The aggregate S. S. attendance is 22,984 It also shows that 442 public services have been held and that the seven native Bible Readers have made 4,037 visits fthe total number of hearers were 7,377.1 An interesting item in the Reports is the distribution of Gospel Literature. There were 153,837 tracts, New Testaments, Gospels, and Bibles put into the hands of the Public last year. Another item-during 1924, a little over S1000 U. S. currency was contributed for extension work. This means that those who are saved are ready to give that others may know the Gospel. One native brother, recently ordained, together with his wife are giving all of their time in the service of the Lord. They have charge of the Santa Rosa mission sta- tion. Others distribute tracts and other religious literature, while more than thirty natives are now S. S. teachers. This in brief states the actual work done and the present conditions of the church in the Argentina. We shall now consider a few needs. NEEDS Church Buildings. Placexs of worship and homes for the missionaries are very much needed at the present time. One church building has been erected at Pehuajo and property has been purchased at Trenque Lauquen. At Santa Rosa and at Carlos Casares, there are flourishing congregations but they have no church building to say nothing of Madero, Tres Lomas, and some of the other towns in our district. Printing Press. We are printing at present 10,000 copies of El Camino Verda- dero fThe True Way.J This is a propaganda paper. Its aim is to awaken interest in the Bible and in the work of the Evangelical Movement. Our great need is a church paper adapted to the needs of the now 171 church members. This is imperative. Orphanage. Because of the many homeless children, a Mennonite orphanage is very necessary. We do not want these little orphans placed in Catholic institutions. Schools. The same is true of our members regarding schools. They have foun-l the joy there is in the Christian religion and are anxious that their children be given instruction not in a Catholic school but in a Protestant one. This is very essential. A Missionary Training School. The sending of a missionary family this year to the Argentina in View of launching a training school we trust will solve this problem. It is not, however, without its difficulties. Our natives must be trained. Prayer. One of the greatest needs is the prayer of each one of God's children in the homeland. Can we depend on you as an intercessary missionary? Prayer changes things. Cooperation. Greater development and growth can be expected if those at home co- operate with us. This can be done through prayer and contribution. Keep informed, dear reader, of the activities of mission work and then pray and give accordingly. OUTLOOK The outlook for the work in general is encouraging. Souls are being saved, others are being taught the way more perfectly while still others are preparing themselves for future usefulness. With the present missionary force together with the prayers and support of the church, we hope to go forth in His name to fight and conquer man's worst enemy, sin. -T. K. HERSHEY.

For sev- eral years no effort was made to organize the site as a township because there were very few settlers and these were scattered over such a large territory. However, in 1831, a Board of Justices was appointed by the state to investigate Elkhart County more thoroughly, to fix its boundaries, and to select some suitable place for a county seat. In spite of the fact that the population of this vicinity was exceedingly small, the Board of Justices chose Goshen because of its advantageous geographical position and be- cause of the excellent calibre of the few families of settlers. Therefore, in 1831, Go- shen was incorporated as the county seat of Elkhart County. It was given the name of Goshen because the richness and productiveness of its soil comparable to the fer- tile soil of Goshen in Egypt.- At this time the population of Goshen was about 180. VVithin the next few years the place grew rapidly and by the fall of 1839 five or six hundred people had settled here. In 1854 Goshen was incorporated as a village, and in 1868, became a city con- trolled by regular city government. The population has increased from the original 180 to approximately ten thousand, in the one hundred years since the founding' of the town. Goshen has become a remarkable city in many ways. One of its most outstanding features is its energy and industry. In the city there are many factories owned and operated by its citizens. Among the most important of these are the lumber mills, Hour mills, furniture factories, range factory, the lightning-rod factory, and the veneer factory. The presence of such industrial establishments is extremely advan- tageous to Goshen, in that they furnish employment to a great number of men and eliminate, to a large extent, unemployment and poverty. These establishments have also made Goshen a quite wealthy city.

It has established seven public schools, fully equipped to accommodate all of the children. The Senior High School, which has just recently been completed, is a beautiful school and is excellently equipped. It easily accommodates seven hundred students. The Go- shen Public Library is an institution of which Goshen is justly proud. It has the largest circulation in proportion to its size of any library in the state. It is Well furnished with books, modern as well as classical. The Library is well adapted to meet the needs of the city, In a discussion of Goshen, its most striking and distinguishing feature must not be omitted. It is interesting to note that in Goshen there are no negroes, very few foreigners, and very little poverty. In Goshen there are no slums. The city is beau- tiful, its streets lined with attractive homes and splendid trees. No one type of architecture predominates. Goshen is a pretty, clean, modern little city, which is growing and has every prospect for a big and prosperous future. -TILLIE E. STOLL.

Undoubtedly it has many mistakes, for it is largely the work of am- ateurs. Yet, we have made a sincere effort to give an honest description of student life, both formally and in its informal daily aspect. We have tried to broaden the student's view by including departments in which students of this College are vitally interested, but which are not so closely associated with actual school life. In some of these departments we have had to draw the material almost entirely from outside sources. We Wish to thank T. K. Hershey for his article on South America, J. N. Kaufman for his article on India, and Prof. Hertzler for allowing us to use part of a write- up on Goshen College, which he had prepared for the Mennonite Lexicon. A number of students, not of the staff, have gen- erously aided us with write-ups, and We wish to thank them, as well as the entire student body for its splen- did financial backing. And We must not forget our advertisers: these business men have supplied the financial aid, without which this book would have been impossible, and we not only express our appreciation, but we ask you to show them this appreciation by giving them your patronage.

When some people say, I see, it means they don't want to bother their minds with any further seeing, The Worm turns -but never into anything better than an insect, whereas the worst sinner may turn to the right and become a saint. si sg: The light that lies in someone's eyes too often does just that.
