ORDER OF CONTENTS DEDICATION SCENES FACULTY CLASSES RELIGIOUS ACTIVITIES MUSIC FORENSICS ATHLETICS ACTIVITIES SOCIETIES PREPARATORY SCHOOL SEMINARY JOKES ADVERTISEMENTS EDWARD W. DIMNENT, A. M.. Liu. D.. L. H. D.. LL. D. President Betricatton Hope College has had. during the six decades of its existence, many great leaders. To them we owe, in large part, the glorious record which Hope men have made in many fields of endeavor. And to the present leader of Hope. Dr. Dimnent, much credit is due for his signal devotion to his Alma Mater. Our true appreciation for the work he has done, and is doing, cannot be expressed by mere words of praise. We know th.it he h.ts faith in Hope, and in her high mission. We know that he has labored unceasingly to lead Hope ever on the upward path. We know that he has a deep in terest in the welfare and success of every student. We know that in all things he has devoted himself entirely to the in- tercsts of Hope. And, therefore, to show in some slight measure our deepest appeciation for .ill these things, we, the class of Twenty two, affectionately dedicate. TO DR, DIMNENT, this 1921 MILESTONE.

Remembrance hallows them; all their hardships are forgotten; through the mists of time they glimmer in unsullied beauty, coming back with their lost loves, their vanished com- rades, their hopes that since have withered, their dreams that are dead and £one; and the heart thrills to remember; and for a moment the lory of morning streams over all the world.

Page Eighteen OUR ALUMNI It has often been said that it is not equipment nor buildings, not the peculiarities of curriculum, nor even the faculty, which make a college, but the body of Alumni. For Hope, this statement is especially true. We point with pride to those who have gone out before us, and as members to be of that great body, we aim to do our part in fulfilling the mission of the old Hope. To our Alumni we bring greetings, and we wish them the best of success in their many opportunities for service. Page Twenty Harry Albert Hoersma Raymond, Minn.

Some past hero has said, “To the victor belongs the spoils.” The Sophs, ac- cording to the spoils gained, are twice victorious. In every branch of athletics the Class of '23 has representatives. In oratorical and debating ability this class leads all others. The college orator in the M. (). L. was a Sophomore, as well as Mope's five new debaters, who are out to uphold past honors. And in all other activities, the Sophomore representatives arc not found wanting. Although these laurels and honors deserve special mention and praise, they will wash away in the stream of life. What really distinguishes this class from all others is the fact that the greatest percentage of its members have decided to devote their lives to help further the onward and upward march of Christianity. Page Fifty three Page Fifty four Vage Fifty-six PH KSIDKN'T The Freshman Class Sept. 16th, 1920 will ever be remembered as the greatest of all days in the his- tory of Hope College. It was then that the College threw wide open its portals and the entire student body stood with outstretched arms waiting to welcome the class of 1924. Truly it should have been a delightful experience for the Seniors, Juniors and Sophomores to welcome into their companionship a class such as the Freshman class of this year. However, we were not too “green to notice the indifference of the Seniors, the anxiety of the Juniors and the arrogance of the Sophomores. Hut it was not long before a tremendous change had taken place. (lone was the indifference of the Seniors—they began to feel something akin to hero-worship; lifted the anxiety of the Juniors as to our future we arc pals; and the Sophs! We had brought them to actual dripping humility. We have proven our worth. The equal of any class in athletic prowess, in scholastic attainments, in our efforts in societies and in social achievements. We feel now that it is up to us to carry on as we have begun, with a realization of Hope s ideals for her men and women, and the knowledge of our highest capabilities. May we be the most studious of Sophomores, the pepiest of Juniors, the greatest leaders as Seniors, and the most loyal of Alumnae. Pose Fifty-seven SSTirfF Page fifty eight Page Sixty STUDENT VOLUNTEER BAND LEADER MARTIN DE WOLF i The Student Volunteer Band l ime hastens oil. The impelling wave of the years, lising, billowing, breaking over all. brings to lis a sense of awe and helplessness when we gaze upon the onee fertile plains which have been reduced to desert lands In its wanton destruction; brings to us a sense of hum- ility and deep appreciation, when we see the seed developing into the plant, the plant blossom- ing forth into fruit. Yet. as the days roll into years and the years into centuries, there is one thing—one great world problem that ever remains the same. It is that intangible some- thing before which our small powers bow in reverence, that world embracing fact which stupilics the greatest intellectual powers. It is life. It is God llis purposes and plans for life. Kvcryonc must cope with this problem of life. In proportion as a man deals with it successfully, so is lie stronger or weaker, so does he more or less worthily live up to the high purpose for which Till ’, Creator made him a part of I lis creation. Realizing this fact. we. Student Volunteers, earnestly strive to hold clearly before us. our purpose, that of dealing with the most vital fact in the universi—the spiritual eternal life. It is our purpose, if God permits, to become foreign missionaries and we look forward, not boldly, but hopefully and prayerfully to the time when we shall be able to realize our ambition. During the past year we have had an unusual privilege. Many of our number attended the first meeting of our ne.wly-organized state Volunteer I'nion, at .M. A. C. in March, at which one of our own members was chosen as the tirst regular president of the I'nion, and at which it was decided that Hope will entertain the conference next year. WK pray that we may prove worthy of the responsibility of revealing to the other Volunteers of the state the great heritage that we have received from our sterling Christian forefathers that of a keen, vital missionary spirit. Ours is a great enterprise. It knows no bounds, no limitations. In the words of Dr. Haas. It is so big as to demand audacity to begin it, so difficult as to demand courage to keep at it. so broad as to demand increasing ability to promote it, and so high as to be sut fused with the very energy of God.” Ours is not a problem of mere territory; we enter into a higher realm that of souls. It takes audacity, courage, and ability to attempt to conquer a world, but it takes the very energy of God to win souls. But those who never never heard •—how are they to know' And how shall they hear without a preacher' ’ In the darkness and gloom of sin and superstitution, groping, feeling about with their spirit hands for some great truth upon which to lay hold, what shall they find? Is there not enough intensity in the cry of a soul to challenge an answer? No love of human beings can ever keep us in the mission field unless we first experience the love of God. Is there not enough strength in the plea of a Father for the salvation of His ihildren to urge us out of the narrow cell of self- enjoyment to bring tin good tidings of freedom to those who do not know? We know there is no other way. nd the trembling lips of each Student Volunteer answer, with a prayer that He will make him worthy of His trust of souls. Here am I. send me. __________Dyke Van Puttbx ...........Grace Mersen ..........Krieha Gi n neman Page Sixty one President --------- Vice-President ____ Secret a rv-Treasurer OFFICKKS Past Sixty-two Y. W. C. A. The Y. W. C. A. at Hope during the past year was the largest and most ener- getic girl’s organization on the campus. It united all the girls of the college and pre- paratory school in loving fellowship and service. Its fundamental endeavor was to strengthen the Christian life of each girl, to lead others to faith in God thru Jesus Christ, and to give to each girl a broad horizon of the needs of women and children the world over. The activities of the Y. W. C. A. have been numerous and worthy. In addition to pledging, with the Y. M. C. A. to pay the salary of the principal of Hope High School in India, the association helped pay the salary of a Y. W. C. A. industrial sec- retary in Japan. At Christmas time, boxes of toys and clothing were sent to our Indian and Kentucky Mission Schools. During the month of November the Asso- ciation girls presented the operetta, “On Plymouth Rock.” A large amount of the proceeds were given to the Armenian and Chinese relief funds. Eight of our members attended the Y. W. C. A. conference held at Lake Geneva, August 17-27. A cabinet council, to which delegates from Albion, Alma, M. A. C., Kalamazoo Normal, and Kalamazoo College were sent, was held at Hope from May 6-9. These two conferences have filled the “Y” work with new ideas and great en- thusiasm. One result was the amending of our constitution by the adoption of the new membership basis, which has worked very successfully. Reside these activities, many of the girls also give their Sunday afternoons to teaching in rural Sunday Schools. We have especially endeavored to promote the health program of the Hope girls. A Health meeting, a beach meeting, posters on good posture, correct clothing and good sense shoes have aided greatly in this endeavor.

M. C. A. One of the oldest organizations on the campus and, today, the most representative body of the men of Hope is the V. M. C. A. It is a vital organization in college life because of its influence upon the studentry—individually and collectively. The purpose and objective of the Association is “to promote a positive moral and religious spirit” and to stimulate the development of Christian faith and character thru prayer, study of the Bible, and the many channels of service with the supreme aim in all of making Christ the King of the Campus.” Student meetings arc held on each Tues- day evening, hours of the best fellowship with one another and our Master. Further activities include deputation work, Sunday School teaching and management, and, in connection with the V. W. C. A. the support of the principal of Hope High School in Madanapelle, India. Hope College without the association in common fellowship of over one hundred and twenty-five men would not be Hope. OFFICERS ..................Harold E. Veldmax .................'Theodore ().

Whene’er thou wilt, thou movest men to happiness and gladness, Hut dost thou choose the otherwise, to lonely grief and sadness. When dreary night gives unto day the charge of earth to keep, And in the east the sleepy sun comes looking o’er the steep, ’Tis then from darksome earth doth rise an anthem of sweet praise, A thousand birds in unison send forth their joyous lays, From silent lulls and vales and bush and every trailing vine, Breaks forth a sound of happy mirth akin to that divine. One mighty chorus! Their sweet throats nearly break, In utterance of their happy songs by which the morn to wake. This then the head of man lifts up and feels the joyous thrill. When light and beauty, joy and gladness deeply drink their fill Of morning’s bounteous wealth. Oh, Muse, how great thou art. For man provide this deep sweet joy, the thrill of soul and heart. How sacred are the tender ties thy charms will oft inspire! Fender ties, yet stronger far than death or hell and fire. File helpless cry of new-born babe, no words can e’er express Its wondrous meaning for its mother, the infinite tenderness With which she hears the sound. Its helpless crying voice, Arouses into consciousness new causes to rejoice, The tender joy of motherhood inspired by thy will. Finds only love its counterpart, a calm both deep and still. When from the mysteries of storm there comes the thunder crash. And Nature seems intent on man its mighty forces clash, And up above from peak to peak the mighty thunders roll, 1‘a c Seventy-four How strange the feeling of the mind, the experience of the soul! The pagan to his self-made god kneels in fear and fright, Not knowing whence the sounds proceed, not whence the furious might. The earth, in waiting attitude, rolls on Thors mighty voice, Who happy in his freedom given, reveals in the choice Of play he most enjoys. All nature to him yields Her forces for his pleasure, while over hills and fields He romps in his wild game. Soon tired of his play. He seeks new scenes to visit and slowly moves away. His voice grows fainter, fainter as slowly on he goes Till hardly he is heard. Oh, Muse how sweet then flows The music from his voice! When thus touched by thy charm, His voice once loud and harsh, grows tender, sweet and calm. How oft one quiet evening have I thy spirit felt. When day retiring from her tasks in holy stillness knelt To hallow nights arrival, ere to earth she gently closed Her watchful eyes so fair, and in arms of night reposed. ’Twas then while dusk came slowly creeping o’er the hills, I heard the distant coo of doves whose music only fills The soul with restful calm. The owl in his somber state, From the longings of his heart called to his lonely mate- in plaintive notes and grave. With measured beats the crickets kept The rythm of their tuneful song, while man and nature slept. The beetles, busy guardsmen keeping watch throughout the night, Gruffly buzzed their stern commands as onward kept their flight. And fireflies like little stars in keeping with their duty, Filled the slews and meadows with the radiance of their beauty. A spicy sweetness then prevades the quiet air of night. As shades of coming night grow thick, and daylight takes its flight To realms unknown to man. Thus in quiet peace and beauty, Day retires to her rest and night takes on her duty. When night does thus approach with what gentle grace. Oh, Muse, Dost thou thy kindly spirit over all the earth diffuse. No wonder was it that the sage of many by-gone years, Termed thy charms most fittingly “the music of the spheres.’’ 'Flic heart that beats in tune can hear a thousand different lays, For all life itself reveals the wonders of thy ways.

O. L. were Vera Keppcl and Judson Stapclkamp. They were the best we had, and our hopes were high, for we thought that after a few months of Dr. Nykerk’s splendid coaching, we would again he state winners. But we can’t win all the time. However, we arc sure that our represent- atives did their very best, and we are proud of the showing they made. Miss Kcppel was given second place and Mr. Stapclkamp was given third place. Page Seventy-nine The Hopc-Dctroit Debate this year was cancelled. The men were picked and ready to debate in February, but it seemed as it nodate could be agreed upon, and since the school year was almost ended the debate was called off. Burrgraaff, Dc Graff and Visschcr formed the Affirmative team, on the question of “Compulsor) Arbitration,” while Ostcrhof, Kngelsman and Blocker formed the Negative. Page Eighty HOPE AND KALAMAZOO DEBATES In addition to the Annual Triangular debates between “Alma-Olivet-Hopc, a dual debate between Hope and Kalamazoo College was held. The question for this debate was the same as that of the Triangular debates; namely. MKesolvcd that further immigration of the Japanese into the I'nited States be prohibited.” The same teams, who had successfully debated against Alma and Olivet were pitted against Kazoo. Peter dc Vries, Abe iRynbrandt, Jack Prins upheld the Negative at home and were awarded a two to one decision. William De Ruiter, Jerry Dc Vries, and Harvey Dc Weerd supported the Affirmative at Kalamazoo. Altho debating cleverly yet were forced to take the mat by a three to nothing count against them. The attack oof the Kazoo team was impregnable. When a resume of Hope’s debating record for the surrent year is taken we find that the high standard of the Orange and Blue was maintained. Winning three out of four debates with entirely new debaters is a record of which Old Hope may be proud. Truly the omens for Hope in debating bode well for tin- future. Page Eighty-one Lest We Forget B V Vera Jane Keppel Awarded Second Place in the Michigan Oratorical Contest for Women. Swallow’d in Vastness, lost in Silence, drown’d in the deeps of a meaningless Past.” Such is the utter despair of a little Poland village, which, a victim of the pillage and plunder of a hundred wars, lies shattered and forsaken. Even the quaint little chapel, once the soul of the village, has long since been destroyed, and its crumbling walls breathe solitude and hopeless- ness. War knows no sacred ground! And yet, seemingly protected by some benign, invisible power, there arises from the weird shapeless piles of stone, a radiant crucifix—the emblem of purity and love, before which twenty generations of devout villagers have worshiped the Prince of Peace. At the base of the sorrowful figure are inscribed these simple, yet significant words: LEST WE FORGE'!'.” Standing there, with its incarnadined crown of thorns upon the bowed head of the Son of Man, it is the symbol of divine benevolence, the only Hope of a forsaken, heart-sick world, the lone Watchman guarding a helpless humanity. In the midst of degrada- tion, decay and despair, it symbolizes Divine Love for a sinful world. As the sun like a golden globe slowly sinks into eternity, casting its rosy rays over the dreary picture, the crucifix catches the glory of the heavens, and, for a moment, shines in opalescent splendor against a background of rose and misty purples. The weary peasant, returning from the fields, partakes of the divine splendor and bows his head in silent reverence to the Spirit of the Cross. Even as the radiant crucifix has filled the heart of the simple peasant with an overwhelm- ing tranquility, so the voice of God has silenced the roar of the mighty cataclysm” that crashed the entire world into a concert of destruction. The shriek of shrapnel, the roar of giant guns are heard no more; no longer is the air filled with the offensive odor of burning powder; hushed are the groans of the wounded and dying; even the dead will soon be forgotten. For four, long years the barbarous dissonance of destruction and death harrowed man’s nobler sensi- bilities. And then, with the coming of peace, we heard a cry echo and re-echo from every civilized country: The war has not been in vain, for out of the debris the world has received new aspirations, new life; from the butchery and bloodshed we have come forth a chastened people, with a new attitude toward God and humanity; out of the maelstrom of spilt blood and black death has arisen the golden light of renewed hope. Hut, when the iron grip of war loosened its bloody grasp, did the Midas touch and demon egotism give way to greater and grander ideals? Hardly a year later saw the world again struggling in the mire of the bar- barous tactics of peace-time warfare. Almost every allied nation attempted to seize all she could, at the expense of smaller, weaker powers. Already, the beautiful idealism is eclipsed. With the coming of peace, America has assumed new duties and responsibilities; for, with the Evolution brought by war, the world centre has again shifted, and America has been given the foremost place among the nations. She is fast becoming the undisputed authority on drama, music, culture, art, science, invention—everything that signifies civilization. But, whether our nation has reached her golden age only to fall into a period of immorality and decay, depends upon the present attitude and actions of the people of America. The hour just before the dawn of a new day in American history is here, the hour when the night is the darkest, when silence is the deepest, when momentous decisions are made. My Countrymen, with you lies the fate of America. History has sealed the fate of Athens, Jerusalem, Rome, Germany. How, in ascending to dizzy heights of wealth, honor, and glory, drunk with power, they, each in turn, fell with a re- soutiding crash, and, unable to rise again, perished amidst the crumbling ruins of their fallen Page Eighty-tuo grandeur. Dazzled by glittering victories, they ignored the most vital and potent force ever known to mankind—Christianity. They forgot God! And America, too, is forgetting—forgetting her duty toward God and toward humanity; forgetting that her responsibility did not terminate on November eleventh, nineteen hundred and eighteen; forgetting that she still has work to do. America has already forgotten the severe lessons learned from the sorrows and the sufferings of war. The social butterfly, who knitted, made bandages, and sold Liberty Bonds, has returned to her life of parisitic indulgence; the soldier, who, in the trenches, denounced the life he had lived, and vowed to be a real man, has forgotten; the wealthy merchant, who promised to give his last dollar, if only God would spare his son, has become a hypocritical miser, and that after God had answered his prayer. Yes, egotism is fast becoming a tyrant, and materialism is dimming the eternal principles of Christianity. However, it is through Sacrifice and Love alone that America can be saved. Nations are crying to America for salvation, and herein lies our opportunity to save our soul. Never before has America been confronted with such despair, desolation, and widespread need, and never before have such pressing and bewildering appeals for aid been brought to our portals. True, we have been fairly deluged in attempting to do our share in the war work; but not until wrong is righted, not until injustice is replaced by mercy, is our war task com- pleted. Our action now embraces not merely America’s present advantage, but her permanent interest, her elevated character as one of the free states of the world, and her duty toward great principles which have made her what she is. Disillusioned Europe stretches out her arms to Christian America, beseeching us by a generous recollection of her desolated and ruined cities and villages, by the common faith, and in the name that unites all Christians, that we extend to her our token of compassionate love. France still needs aid; three-fourths of tin- population of Soviet Russia are dying from hunger and cold; China’s millions are starving. In Central Europe the oppressed are Christian people, not without knowledge, not without refinement, not without a strong thirst for all the pleasures of civilized life trampled into the very earth by a pillaging, savage, relentless “blood and iron regime.” The life-blood of these people has been drained to the very dregs. Last year we saw- children stretching out their little, thin, blue hands for food, while the cold, pitiless wind pierced their threadbare clothing; today we face abnormal, sad-faced children, stunted in physical, men- tal, and moral growth. These helpless little victims, caught in war’s ruthless grasp present pathetically deformed bodies, hopelessly stunted minds, and sad, yes even wicked expressions on their little faces. The babies are wizened, and wrinkled, and old, and their little shriveled face' are contracted in the agony of slow starvation. I pon these children rests the world’s work of tomorrow, and how are we, the present generation, preparing them for life's responsibilities? Will America be the good Samaritan, or will she, like the I.evite, pass by on the other side? Americans, humanity needs you. Are you willing to volunteer? Not to die for her, but to vol- unteer for that which is perhaps a harder and even a nobler task—to give freely for her, to pray for her, to live for her. We have an immense task to complete before the thousand wars of old are over, and Time rings in the thousand years of peace. We have no real peace now. True, the greatest war ever recorded in history has seemingly ended, but the entire world is wading through an abysmal sea of crime and misery. No, there is no peace as yet, even though the battle-fields of Flanders are deserted and no hissing bullets pierce the stillness of the night. Not until the shining Cross of Christ is emblazoned upon the heart of every American, and all endeavor to organize those great spiritual forces that underlie Christian civilization, will the night of war brighten into the dawn of peace. Not until every American substitutes the God of Love for the Principle of Greed, and all join a crusade against materialism, will the darkness of destruction be pierced by the golden rays of the sun as it climbs over the hill-top, proclaiming the birth of a new day. Not until then can we rejoice with Kipling in the supreme gift of a contrite heart. rage Eighty-three ‘‘The tumult and the shouting dies— The Captains and the Kings depart— Still stands Thine ancient sacrifice, A humble and a contrite heart. Lord God of Hosts, he with us yet. Lest we forget—lest we forget! In the depth of every heart there is a yearning to give that which is best in us. I 'util this longing is satisfied, there can be no true peace. Why not fill this void with the Spirit of the Cross, that Spirit which will not only encourage us to do our bit, but will compel us to do our best? When God speaks to us through the sorrows and sufferings of desolate people, we should not turn our heads away with a sigh, but be so permeated with the Spirit of Service and Love, that we shall answer with our noblest deeds. Only when all America shall kneel at the foot of the Cross shall we have a true, contrite heart; then only shall we be truly happy; only then shall we have peace. Oh, Americans, we. who live in this glorious country, “conceived in liberty” and dedicated to God, shall we permit the Cross to plead in vain and be forever blinded by the red tyranny of war? We, who have been so blest in this God-given democracy with all the bounties of a blood-bought-freedom— shall we forget now? No; it is for us to have more lofty aspirations; to strive for that which N bigger and better; to see the gleam and follow it; to hear the still, small voice, and listen, as it pleads from the agony of a divine soul, “How long wilt thou forget Me, oh, my children, how long?” Page Eighty-four The Menace of Lawlessness B Y JlDSOX W. Stapei.kamp Awarded Third Place in the Michigan Oratorical Contest for Men. Democracy is founded upon the principle of liberty under law. For Freedom’s sake the Pilgrim Fathers dared the cruel anguish of unfrequented seas. To find a suitable home for lib- erty, they built their solitary homes upon the cold and barren soil of New England's coast. But our noble fathers knew that unrestrained liberty breeds license, and that license brings ruin. Therefore they avoided casting themselves before the chimerical shrine of False Freedom. Upon the strength of Liberty under Law they built the grand and beautiful structure of a democratic government. “I.o! where rise three peerless stars To he thy natal stars, my country: Ensemble, Evolution, Freedom, Set in the sky of Law.” But these are troubled times, and our forefather's ancient respect for law seems to have been cast aside. The last faltering echoes of a great war died away as the sounds of a new em- broilment have brought a renewed feeling of unrest. The altruistic idealism of the great conflict has been succeeded by the cold, hard realism of post-war lawlessness. The signs of the times read like a strange foreboding. Daily our minds are turned to those who tread “profanely on the scrolls of law and creed. Not since the days of the Danville riots, not since the days of the Ku Klux Klan, have we witnessed such scenes of wanton passion and uncurbed violence. The hateful voice of the tioter, lusting for the blood of the negro, has been heard thruout the land. At the nation’s capital, behold, the statue of the Great Emancipator wrapped in clouds of smoke from the scorch- ing bodies and the dying embers of human victims. At Elaine. Knoxville, East St. Louis and Chicago, those heartless demonstrations of crime and slaughter, speak to us not of liberty, not of law, but rather of anarchy and licentiousness. 1 came not tonight to plead for the American negroes. They are, it is true, a race that has been despised and exploited by men. Although we can not forget their failures, let us remember that they are a people of many sorrows. Brought to the shores of America by the hand of an alien, they were made to suffer, toil and die in the cotton fields of the South, and at length were given their freedom by the Savior of our country. The fourteenth amendment to our constitu- tion made them into American citizens, and therefore I come not to plead for the black man, but I come rather to plead for American Law, to ask that the principles of our forefathers, the fruits of liberty under law, be accorded to every one that bears the proud name of an American citizen. The menace of lawlessness appears not only in distinctions of race and color, but daily we meet the problem in our social and industrial life. The red demon of Chaos stalks abroad and Haunts its hated color in our face. Red Radicalism, with its satanical doctrines, eats at the vitals of our national life. Urged on by the falsehood “that all men are born free, but now all men are in chains,” the spirit of mobocracy has caused the great Melting Pot to bubble and burn and boil over, bringing untold destruction of precious life and priceless property. The Wall Street disaster is but a recent example of the menace of radicalism. l ire nation's center of business, peaceful and apparently secure, suddenly distracted by the bombs of assassins! Destruction, desolation, ruin, on every side. Fire gray stone mansions of business pot-marked by flying missiles. A mad wreckage of steel, stone, wood, and human flesh forming a background Page Eighty-five for the statue of the Father of this Country. Thus, as he stands in the inart of America’s business world, now guarded by American's sons in uniform, we can almost hear him speak his words of wisdom and his message of admonition, I.et us raise here a standard to which the wise and the honest may repair. The event is in the hands of God.” Today we arc brought in contact with America's great wave of crime. Tales of murder, robbery and larceny occupy the largest portion of our public press. Almost every city of any size reports an increase of vice and crime. Cleveland alone shows seventy murders within the last year. Detroit and Chicago report unprecedented increase in homicides and robberies. Seattle testifies to a record of crime greater than the average of the last six years. Thus reads the story of a nation’s disrespect for law. Thus has the spirit of order become a farce and our ideals a risible mockery. Thus is the golden sunlight of a better day darkened by the black and lowering clouds of pessimism. Hut, we ask, who is responsible for this menace of lawlessness? There are those who claim that the present condition is entirely due to the effects of the great war. There are others who would have us believe that lawlessness today is not more prevalent, but merely more apparent. The records of the last years clearly disprove such an idle supposition, and even were it true, it is time that the normal be changed, or America shall reap its Pentecost of Calamity.” In part, we can readily admit the first contention. We realize that the great war has had its blighting effect upon American law ; but far more menacing has been the influence of enemies within our own gates. The three hundred foreign language newspapers and the dirty yellow press” have been preying upon the ignorance of the masses. Their propaganda of Lawlessness, so cleverly disseminated, has deceived even the wise and the prudent, and today we find pulpit, school and press in various parts of the country voicing doctrines far different from those enunciated in the constitution of the I'nitcd States; far different from those adhered to by the settlers whose landing upon the shores of America we so recently celebrated. Indeed, far more deadly than plague, or famine, or foreign foe is this insidious propaganda of Anti-Americanism. I said that this propaganda had been administered with infinite cunning, bringing us results wc had not expected and could not always recognize. One of the most potent causes of the present era of lawlessness has been the influence of the radical press and propaganda, by its giving us a lower code of morality and attempting to undermine our religious institutions. Viciousness and immorality have ever been the workshop of crime. Our religious institutions have always been the most powerful sources of social order. Babson, the great statistician, tells us that the primal demand of the present crucial hour is morality and religion. He speaks not as the representative of any religious organization or society for social betterment, but rather as a man of facts. The insidious enemies of our democracy have trampled upon the principles of our forefathers, holding before the public eye, not a politics of patriotism, but a politics of self-interest, seeking to make the American people lose faith in their own government, their own ideals, and their own religion. They have pointed, in mockery, at the failure of our exe- cutives and legislatures, instead of seeking to rectify mistakes by the just means of the ballot. They have been successful in breeding contempt for public law and public men. Blind, greedy, and incompetent men we have sometimes had, but even they arc far more desirable than those leaders of Anti-Americanism. Fellow students, the situation is before us. How then are we to meet this propaganda which is undermining our morality, our religion and our ideals, thus causing this epoch of lawlessness? First, we must recognize that the problem cannot be mastered by the use of force. True, it is, that overt acts against the nation must be punished to the limit of the law. True, it is, that, when two thousand criminals, crossing the ocean as stowaways land upon our shores, wc must use force to cast them from the land. But we cannot expect to exert force alone against the spirit of lawlessness. The days of czars and kaisers are past. We have come to recognize Page Eighty-six that force can have no effect upon ideals. Wc can meet the propaganda of Anti-Americanism only with the clear, pure, optimistic propaganda of Americanism. This is the only solution to the problem of lawlessness. It is our task to teach the principles of American democracy. It is our duty to uphold as law as well as freedom. A campaign of education is demanded. A lesson in the foundations of democracy is necessary. Not only arc we to seek the immigrant; not only arc we to minister in the slums of the great city; not only are we to pass the word to the illiterate—but this lesson must be given especially to the young, to the generation of new Americans. Our own beloved Theodore Roosevelt has said “that no nation can serve two masters. Wc cannot enthrone Democracy and at the same time worship Lawlessness. Only when the true spirit of America shall lead this nation, only when the old ideals of morality and religion have been re-established, shall lawlessness fold its tent like the Arab and steal away. Then let us strive by education and religious teaching to awaken in this land a new love for our democracy. I.et us strive to change this era of lawlessness into an epoch of truth, and justice, and proper respect for the institutions of this great land. The ideals of the Puritan have not been erased from the hearts of our people. Justice still rules the conscience of America’s sons. It is a time, not for pessimism but for Americanism. From the blood-stained fields of Yorkiown. from the lonely graves at Gettysburg, from the smoldering battle-fields across the waters, the clear sweet voice of democracy calls us. It is for us, “To make the rugged places smooth, and sow the vales with grain: And bear, with Liberty and Law, the Bible in our train. The mighty West shall bless the Fast, and sea shall answer sea, And mountain unto mountain call, Praise God for we arc free! Page Eighty-seven - Page Eighty-eight Coach Schouten From the beginning of her history, Hope has boasted of her athletic record, for she has always produced athletes of the highest caliber. For many years, however, there has been on the campus much latent material which remained undeveloped. With the addition to the faculty of the Director of Athletics, Hope is now getting that all around physical training which alone makes continued athletic prowess as- sured. Altho his scat with the faculty has been occupied but a short time, the Athletic Director, Jack Schouten, has already created for himself a warm spot in the hearts of many students, for his daily contact with them and his personal interest in their affairs make them feel that he is one of them. In more than one way Jack has proved himself a true friend of the student body, for to him we must give the credit for raising the condition of the Athletic Association from one of degeneracy and al- most bankruptcy to a stable and well regulated organization. To him also belongs the credit for the permament establishment of physical training for women at Hope, and also the possibility of their obtaining the coveted college letter by working out a prescribed schedule. Page Ninety Page Sin tty one VAN EENENAA.M COACHSCHOUTEN JOLlJEKSMA WASSENAAK JAPING A (Capt) VAN PITTEN SCHUURMANS I K JONG Basketball Basketball has ever been the leading sport at Hope. Whenever a Michigan team aspires to the State Championship, it inevitably asks, “I wonder what the Dutchmen from Holland will do this year?” Hope has indeed established an enviable record among the colleges of the state; she is always a contender for first honors. With four letter-men from last year as a nucleus, and with much premising ma- terial for second string men to scrimmage with, the season opened with the brightest of prospects. Our first opponents were the Lowell American Legion aggregation, who were easily defeated 35 to 15. file next week found our basketeers pitted against Calvin College, who also departed much wiser than when they came. Then the team started on an extended western trip in which it met and defeated many strong teams. The first game was with the crack South Bend, Ind., Y. M. C. A. team. This being the first game away from home, the boys seemed lost and were defeated 40 to 15. Then came the Whiting Owls, who had to be satisfied with the small end of a 30 to 10 score. The team then journeyed to Iowa, where it played Western Onion College at Le Mars, two games with Sheldon Co. E, Hull Independents, two games with the Iowa- famous Sioux Club, first at Sioux Center and then at Orange City, and the Orange City American Legion. The only game lost was at Sioux Center. The trip was . huge success. Next came the annual tilt with Grand Rapids Y. M. C. A. on New Year's night. Before an immense crowd the Orange and Blue once more triumphed over their old rivals from the furniture city by a score of 22 to iS. Company F, of Grand Haven, was their next victim, by a 44 to 11 tally. The following week found our warriors battling on the large M. A. C. floor. After a very hard game the team suffered its third defeat of the season. The count stood 31 to 17. Then came the Grand Rapids Y. M. C. A. for a return game, but again were they disappointed, for they went home with the undesirable end of a 36 to 17 score. The Buicks at Flint were easily downed, but the Bay City Industrials turned the tables on us. 'File Kazoo Normals had a very fine team this season and disappointed us by twice going home with the bacon, but only after strenuous battles. The game with M. A. C. at home was one of the most exciting. The first half ended 12 to 8 in Hope’s favor, but during the first few minutes of play in the second half, the farmers made some long lucky shots that finally gave them the game 27 to 23. The fuss with Mt. Pleasant was a hard one, but never did we lose the lead. The last game with Alma turned out to be a farce. All in all, Hope has again produced a team of which it can well be proud. The men were very faithful and none were ruled out because of a failure in studies. Fifteen victories out of a possible twenty-two and scoring 631 points to our opponents’ 442, is a fine record. Next year’s season promises to be even a better one, since all the reg- ulars are Juniors and will undoubtedly return. Let’s all get behind the coach and boost athletics! Boost for Hope! Jack has made a fine success. Let’s go for a greater and finer Hope! Page Sinciy-ttvo “Dickie” Jappinga, captain (left forward) 43 halves, 247 points. Dick has always been a well- oiled cog in our scoring machine. All of our opponents always make it a point to watch the little forward that parts his hair in the middle. He certainly made an efficient captain. Wcssie Wasscnaar, (right forward) 39 halves, 129 points. Wessic is a mighty scrappy little player. Lucky for his opponents that he isn’t a giant. He is fast and works well. Hasketball has been his great incentive to study. “Garry” Dejong, (right guard) 37 halves, 4 points. Garry has been a tower of strength on the defense. 'Lime and again plays by the op- position would be foiled by his clever work. Woe to the man that tried to dribble past or push aside our big boy under the basket! “Dyke” Van Putten, (left guard) 42 halves, 169 points. Dyke is still as slippery as he used to be. He certainly got his share of the points when it comes to dividing the honors. He could always be depended upon to do his part in every play. I’age Ninety-three “Mike” Schuurmans, (center) 43 halves, 38 points. “Minta” has not been out-jumped this season. He ably assisted Garry at guarding our basket. Wherever the fight was thickest you could depend on seeing “Montana Mike.” “Hill' Joldersma, (sub-guard) 22 halves, 16 points. “Jake” got many chances to play and he acquitted himself with honor. He could be relied upon to fill his position at any time. “Guard”, Van Eenenaam, (sub-center) 7 halves, 6 points. “Guard” played a consistent game whenever he got a chance, and was al- ways faithful throughout the season. “Jack” Schouten (Coach). Doc” is a hale and hearty good fellow. He works with the boys as if he were one of them. He has en- couraging ways that draw the best out of every- body. Yes! Even our co-ed athletes simply “love” him. I Page Ninety-four tay-Ki u}x .’fio, CROSS COUNTRY J’agc X in fly-six L Track I'His year about thirty men have signed up for Track. 'This sport is lately being regarded with greater interest, so that within a very lew years Hope will have a track and field team that will be able to compete with any college in the state. I'or a number of years Hope has been competing with various institutions in long distance running. The one annual event has been the thirty mile relay race with the Grand Rapids V. M. C. A., between Holland and Grand Rapids. Each of these teams is composed of ten men. The “Y” now has one victory the better of us, the tally standing, Hope, five; “Y”, six. But this year Hope’s men are determined to even up the affair. Another event of great importance is the annual cross-country run at M. A. C. late in the fall. Here all the colleges of the state compete in a five mile race. This year, as last, Hope again took third place, being beaten only by the large state insti- tutions, L . of M. and M. A. C. On May i, 1920,3 four mile cross country race was conducted at Holland be- tween the combination Calvin College, Grand Rapids “Y” team and Hope. The race was an intensely interesting one, especially for first place. The Furniture City team won. Last year the Orange and Blue participated in its first dual inter-collegiate field meet, stacking up against the crack Kalamazoo College team. Considering the lack of proper facilities such as cinder paths, jumping pits, and other equipment for prac- tice, our men did remarkably well. Kazoo won the meet. Each year the Ahletic Association grants a trophy to the class winning the an- nual inter-class field meet. There is a great deal of rivalry and competition between the classes in these events. Last year the present Seniors won the meet, the present Juniors taking second place. 1‘age Hinety sevtn tt(3}j£lfui ’ jSoj FOOTBALL TEAM Football Football is a coming sport at Hope, and will soon b.- taking as important a place as basketball. During the past two years a greater interest has been shown by both students and alumni, and there are more candidates for positions on the team than ever before. Last year no major accidents were sustained because each player was kept in best possible condition, and given the best equipment. Immediately after the opening of school, the men were called out and put thru the usual preparatory drills for a number of weeks. .Most of Hope’s players have to be developed from raw ma- terial. for we have no system of granting scholarships to draw the cream of high school talent to our hall. We are primarily an educational institution, and athletics are mere- ly a source of physical development. Altho we did not put out a wonderful win- ning team last year, nevertheless we feel proud of the record we made and the spirit in which the team met defeats. YE feel certain that in a few years Hope will be feared as a strong rival on the gridiron as well as on the basketball court.

Schoutcn. a veteran Northern League Baseball player, as coach, the good old national sport is coming to its own here. Even before the Basketball season had ended, the candidates for the Baseball team were called out for spring practice. Twenty-eight men signed up, thereby assuring lively competition and a good team. The manager has arranged a very strong sched- ule that promises to put Hope on the Baseball map during the season of 1921. Last year a good schedule was arranged, but owing to the weather two of the games were cancelled. 'Phis left seven games to be played, of which we won five. The first was to he with M. A. C. on April 10, but owing to weather conditions it had to be cancelled. The first game played was with the Kalamazoo Normals at Kazoo. Lhe teachers had a veteran team which defeated us 6-2. Then came Junior College at Grand Rapids, in this game Hope men showed their mettle and trounced our Metropolitan neighbors 10-3. By playing “air tight ball” the Ferris Institute nine of Big Rapids were held to four runs while Hope by timely hitting and clever bunting, ran up a score of 15. Then Junior College came to Holland, and after a hard game returned home with the small end of a 5-4 score. RECORD Apr. 17.... . . . . Hope. . . . Kazoo Normals Apr. 24 . .. .

Eligibility of players, dates of games and further gen- eral supervision of athletics, arc the duties of this body.

Still it has recognized that the times arc not only for conservatism, but for advance; yet not for ill-cor.ceivcd new departures to replace the sanity of experience. Such a philosophy it has cherished as the basis of its relation to college life. Hut The Anchor exists for more than sponsoring of ideas; its true function is very practical. First, it plays an invaluable role as one of the forces which make of alumni, ad- ministration and studentry a unit. This college weekly supplies a bond of interest to the alumni. All are encouraged by reports of how the loyal sons and daughters of old Hope are carrying on in the larger ways of life. However, The Anchor fills its most common and immediate service on the campus. As a field of literary development for amateur hut ambitious talent, it fur- nishes to many a rare privilege for self culture in a practical fashion. It is needless to append that, in spite of the current naivetes of college slang, purity of style and diction is maintained as the standard and ideal. Hut in the rather generous sized fields of the non-scholastic the student publication is a unique influence. The Anchor fosters the Hope spirit, supplies news and a “community interest,” delights with the humorous, cheers with the optimistic, provides an open forum for lively exchange of viewpoints, champions the wholesome features of campus experience and as unre- servedly condemns the opposite—in what the subtle tongue loves to misname—“a word,” The Anchor is an apostle of Hope. The present staff is completing the thirty-fourth year of publication, a year of happy report. Due to the efforts of the business manager a sound business footing has been reached, so the newly elected administration will take up their tasks without the usual handicaps. The staff, smaller in number than formerly, have been the more active and successful in their duties. It has been a prosperous and promising year; and the fulfillment of that promise under the guidance of the new editors is not to be doubted. Editor-in-Chief. Associate Editor Athletics.......

With a view toward extending the scope of this self-control the Council has this year carried on an experiment. It has endeavored to eliminate the feeling of class enmity, that usually arises between the two lower classes and that often has led to undesir- able results, and to substitute for it a healthy, sportsmanlike inter-class rivalry. To this end it initiated a set of Freshman regulations to be in force from the opening day of the College until Thanksgiving recess to be enforced by the Sophmores. In addition the Council fostered inter-class athletic events, such as the annual tug-of- war, which, as in other years, it supervised. If the future proves the plan successful, .'mother step will have been taken toward the realization of the Council’s aims. OFFICERS President.........................................PETER J.

Founded with the purpose of culti- vating a deeper insight and a broader outlook upon science in the Hope students con- templating this as their career, it has far surpassed the hopes of its founders. This is undoubtedly due both to the high standard of scholarship required before admission and the pride which its members take in upholding this standard. Every graduate of the Science Club is on the road to success in his particular branch of scientific endeavor, and consequently the club has become the goal toward which every Hope- ite pursuing the science course aspires.

President Philip Phelps, a graduate of Union, and first President of Hope College, opened the way for continuing the society at Hope, and accordingly in 1863 the archives of the organiza- tion were transferred to our school. Since that time the members of the society have been directing their efforts to be in contact with every phase of life—to broaden in- tellectually, to develop socially, and to attain moral and spiritual progress, by care- fully adhering to the constantly emphasized ideal—“Friendship, Love and Truth.” OFFICERS Fall Winter Spring President..........Theodore Yntcma Francis P.

Since that time it has, and continues to place men into all the college contests and activities. This it does by fitting them thru the weekly gatherings; where the K. S. fellowship overpowers and spurs on, where the intellectual, social and moral arc stressed and practiced. Knickerbockers surround the globe, and each in his own station is keeping the K. S. Triangle firmly resting upon its “intellectual” base, and diverting from this, its “moral” and “social sides. It is always with an eye singled for the good of Hope that she presses forward with her banner—Rubv-Black—and in all her activities she aims to help raise the standards of Hope throughout State and Country.

Not only has the membership increased to twenty-nine, but the members have become stronger intellectually, morally, and socially, and already Emersonians are looking backward with pleasure to past achievements, and forward with faith to the rewards of success. It is their joy to see men of honor enter the activities of tin- college with love for its principles, and strive for its prosperity. There have been trials overcome, problems solved, but the conviction is theirs that the seedling of today swayed by the gentle breeze of summer, becomes the mighty oak of tomorrow bent only by the terrific blast of winter’s storm. “Then lling out anew, sons of Emerson true.

Due to the fact that they were obliged to organize practically two different teams during the season, they failed to reach last year’s standard. Nevertheless, it re- vealed that “Prep” contains good material, the nucleus for a strong “varsity” team later on. Nothing daunted, the “Preps” look forward to a good hunch of “tossers,” and a more successful season next year. Page One Hundred Thirty-seven Page One Hundred Thirty eight THE WESTERN THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY The 1921 Scminoles (not of the Mexican variety) feel delighted in sharing with the Collegians a few pages in the annual issue of the College Yearbook. That the College and the Seminary, tho seperate in administration and divided by the hard, cold fact of 12th street, are united in spirit is evidenced by the interchange of athletic contests, the common use of gymnasium and tennis court and bowling alley; the fraternizing of the studentry. male and female, and all ’round interest of the two schools in each other. The majority of the neophite preachers hold in tender memory that dear old College close to the inland sea—her victories are their victories; her defeats are their sorrow; her glory is their rejoicing, her woe bringeth tears. The W’esten Seminary is an institution that produces specialists. Fresh from the College and the training school they come to be rooted and grounded in the principles of the Reformed faith. Old Testament Language and Kxcgesis, New Testament Kxposition, Systematic Theology, Authority. Church History. Sacred History, Religious Kducation, Principles of Pulpit work. Practical Theology—these, and many others, are all directed towards the goal—the effective preaching and teaching of the Word of God. Already in the first year of his course, the coming preacher, filled with the enthusiasm and the fervor of the new attainment, tries his art. and invariably realizes a new experience that far sur- passes anything that he has ever experienced before. And so he graduates to the noblest calling in the world—the ministry of the Gospel. The Wstern Seminary needs men. It has splendid equipment, it has a strong, conse- crated faculty and it offers opportunity to labor in the biggest field and the noblest task that man can desire. The call goes out to men of red blood and earnest zeal, they who have the welfare of mankind and the world at heart, to come join the ranks of those who are striving to carry the Banner of the Cross to victory.

A young man has all of life before him, he hopes to create an estate and knows it will take years to do so. Without LIFE lNSrRAN.CE a man is liable to die a “Bankrupt.'’ A young man can easily creat an Estate of So,000 at once by simply taking out a policy for that amount. The deposits required from year to year are very light and keep on decreasing as you grow older. In watching the development of your friends, you have found it interesting to note their additional self-confidence, their improved bearing, and their happier, more convincing natures after they had the satisfaction of buying LIFE INSURANCE, realizing that a real service had been done for the ones nearest to their hearts. What a comfort such a service would be for you. and how much more ready you would bo for development in (‘very other respect. The policies of the NORTHWESTERN MUTUAL LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY are particularly appreciated by students of economics. A careful analysis of the business principals of this great Company, will explain why over T () per cent of our new business is written on our old and satisfied policy-holders.
