In the hearts of all those who have met him, whether it has been socially or in the classroom, Dr. Patterson holds the supreme position. It is therefore with a sense of privilege that we, the class of 1923, dedicate this 1922 MILESTONE to one who has served our Alma Mater so faithfully, Dr. Frank N. Patterson Page Eleven A Message of the Alumni to the Institution Fifty-six years ago the pioneer class of eight members graduated, of whom the writer and Rev. Gcrrit Dangremond,—the oldest of the two,—survive. The sons and daughters of Hope have become a numerous, influential and widely dis- persed family. The Milestone Editors invite ‘‘the oldest alumnus to write the message of the Alumni to the school. Although without consultation of that worthy body, and not claiming authority to represent it. the writer ventures to voice their gratitude for being thus kindly remembered in this publication. To respect age. mature characters, and wide experience is a promising trait of youth. From wide fields of service in various capacities come earnest voices of greeting to our Beloved Alma Mater. In 1866 the Institution was a pious hope, which by its sound development and the con- secrated and efficient service of its sons and daughters has long since, with the favor of God. become a grand reality. The Alumni congratulate the entire body of students, who now appreciate their training in this Institution of rank and reputation for its Christian character, its thorough work, and its highly creditable achievements. Honoring the memory of the founders, and to the present maintaining constituency, and to you prospective additions to line brotherhood and sisterhood of graduates, the Alumni assure an abiding and prayerful interest. Whatever fruitful labors we have performed for Church, Society, and State, we appeal to you to surpass this record of the past! And for those who govern and direct, and instruct, and for you who resort to these halls of learning and mental discipline, we invoke Divine guidance and blessing. 1 .

Bloemendal SOPHOMORE CLASS W ith the welcome of a new day for Hope, the triumphant Sophomores returned and Hung wide their royal banner over its verdant campus. In keeping with our all victorious past, we have sunk the hopes of still another class in the muddy waters of Black River. Thanks to the iron hand of the Sophomore Class we have further humiliated the credulous Freshmen. Never before with such regularity and profusion has the green cap dotted our campus. But above all, we have answered the challenge of true Hopeites by taking a formidable place in the activities of the school. In athletics we have taken a royal stand. In Forensics and scholastic endeavors our class is upholding the standards already so nobly attained. Composed of members with ability and unquestionable industry, we have sought ever to follow our watchword “Victory.” And as the days of our sojourn here dwindle, we will strive to erect a true and living Milestone in the History of Old lIoj e, on which, when the last sunset shall usher out the class of ’24, we hope that the glorious flush of light may illumine the graven word “Victory.” Page Fifty-one Page Fifty-two T: Me Kdvie nOf-Xtfi.j i3ot, Presides r ......

The best class in the history of I lope C ollege has enrolled ! Such might have been the sentiments of Dr. Dimnent, if he had been gifted with prophetic power, as he looked over the “verdant section” in Yinants Chapel September 21, 1921 and said: “Lord, how they have increased that trouble me.” Truly they had increased, for ours is the largest class that has evered entered I lope. However, quantity is not the only thing in which we excel. The pep and enthusiasm with which the Freshmen entered the campus activities are proof enough of our quality. In athletics, superior ability has been shown. Ye are represented by five men on the first team in basketball. And not only in athletics but in the various organizations of the college the Freshman Class is figuring prominently. Shouldering the responsibility which every loyal Hopeite should feel it his duty to assume, we the Class of 1925, working together, look forward to three more years of college life, just as happy and successful as this first year has been. And may we, as we execute the duties which our Sophomore. Junior and Senior years bring us, always be filled with determination to make I lope College better for our having been there.

Pant Fifty txght ctivitie Pate Fifty-nine Page Sixty iaw Y. W. C. A. The V. Y. C. A. organization at Hope is the greatest training school in Christian womanhood on the campus. In a co-cducational school where many interests are shared in common with the men there is need of just such an organization. As it is the Master who has exalted true womanhood to the position of responsibility and influence it must now maintain, it is the Hope girls’ desire to possess that more abundant life which He has promised her. This is sought in the varied activities of the association. The weekly devotional hour is the common meeting ground for girls from all classes and societies. There is a similarity in needs and aspirations that makes them all feel one. The regular program of activities has been carried on as in former years, including the summer Eight Weeks Clubs, various Mission Study classes, the College week of Prayer, Christmas gifts to the mission schools where former Hope girls are working, the support of a secretary in Japan. Sunday School teaching, and a share in the Hope High School drive. During the early spring the Y. W. joined with the Y. M. in effecting the organization of an Association Union. As the abundant life touches every point of a girl's interest, the Y. W. does not overlook physical and social training but has provided in various ways for both of these thruout the year. One gratifying feature is the very large percentage of membership. Almost eighty new girls signed the purpose cards in the fall. The Hope Y. W. C. A. has a big responsibility and a big opportunity and it is trying to live up to both.

M. C. A The Young Men’s Christian Association of Hope College is the most influential organization upon the campus. I'.very Tuesday evening the men of the school gather to enjoy a quiet hour of fellowship and prayer with God. It is the place where Senior and I) meet in a common endeavor, where everyone tries to help everybody else to a closer walk with God and to a purer Christian life, and where everyone feels the grasp of the friendly hand. The purpose of the “Y is to make Christ, “the King of the Campus. Every man feels the power of Christian love, the strength of conservation, the noble efforts for moral and spiritual attainment which the “Y so finely represents. Its influence is felt not only on the campus but is felt further in the Annual Week of Prayer, the Gospel Teams, the Sunday Schools, and in the support of the principal of Hope High School in India. The welfare of the Y” is looked after by the Y. M. C. A. Cabinet, composed of a president, vice-president, secretary and treasurer and eight committee chairmen. Once a week they meet to discuss the needs, to plan the work and to pray for the success of the organization. These meetings are largely responsible for the Christian character of the cabinet members and for their influence in leading and guiding others to Christ. It is to these noble efforts of the Cabinet that the “Y is so deeply indebted for the splendid work accomplished this year.

There had been felt among the men who were planning to enter the ministry, a great need for a union of hearts and minds in the fellowship of an organization. A few Senior men called a meeting of those who were interested, and some thirty responded. Dr. Dimnent was at the meeting and gave suggestions for organization. Various outside men have addressed the Home Volunteers upon subjects of peculiar interest to them. Xow and again these meetings are interspersed with a purely devotional meeting in which the men express their thoughts as to the profession they have chosen for life. The club meets every Friday afternoon for one hour. Its purpose is to keep alive the ideals of the men: to arouse interest in the problems of the church in our own country; and to inspire members with devotion and loyalty to the Christ of the Cross.

Cornelius Van Tol ....Edward Tanis .......Jack Prins Page Sixty eight Student Volunteers STUDENT VOLUNTEER BAND “The Evangelization of the world in this generation.” What a far cry from the limited outlook of our ancestors and their superstitious dread of all beyond the narrow contines of their known territory! Standards of thought have advanced slowly but certainly from parochial to national terms and now we are witnessing still greater progress to international terms. A neighborhood of nations is evolving! In this new relationship each nation ha its own problems, all so strangely alike in the last analysis, however, and each nation has its own characteristic contribution to make to the general welfare without which no other nation can attain its own full measure of stature. Christian nations have a unique responsibility in this respect in that they alone possess the secret of making the vast relationship a friendly one. The Student Volunteer is an expression of this, altho at first glance its accomplishment seems almost impossible. Still when we consider this new international consciousness, the problem assumes more reasonable proportion. It is only because God has chosen to carry out his plans thru human channels and these needed channels have become terminals, not open to His control, that the accomplish- ment has been delayed this long. Loss of vitality of Christianity itself has always followed a too selfish guarding of it. America by sharing her most priceless possession is losing her life hut to save it. She realizes that her own is not the only interpretation that represents Christianity, that in many cases she is rather making a failure of it. and that the torch must he passed on in order that the light itself may be given new life. It is through the characteristic interpretations that result from the adaption of Christianity to various types of mind that the power of Christianity is realized in its completeness. It takes all the colors in the great spectrum of humanity to make up the white light of Christianity. As color i' the absence of some other colored constituents of the spectrum so the interpretation of one people alone can never show Christianity in its true light. That light is not complete without all its components. It is the privilege of America’s foreign missionaries to be the medium thru which this most important of international obligations is discharged, to act as interpreters in the best sense, between nations and thus to furnish the avenue of expression truest to Xmerica's real seli. The Student Volunteers have enlisted in the work of furthering the development of this moral foundation without the basis of which present day internationalism will result in hopeless disaster.

For thirty-five years it has earnestly endeavored to reflect on its pages the Spirit of Hope as expressed by its present student body. In that work it has won much commendation and praise from similar publications at other schools. While holding fast to the foundational ideals of the college it represents, the Anchor has striven, however, to give expression to the changes of sentiment and thought which are the mark of an active and progressive studentry. Through a Student Forum it has aimed throughout the year to keep in touch with all phases of student opinion, and to draw there- from an editorial policy best adapted to the needs of all. Guided by a heritage of progressive conservatism it has frowned upon any unwarranted radicalism, while it has found a word of encouragement for any movement productive of a stronger and better Hope. Through its Literary Department it has tended to encourage development of any latent literary genius upon the campus and hence has achieved, as a publication, a literary as well as a news value. This feature of the Anchor offers an open field for a practical self-culture in authorship, in verse no less than in prose. N’or has it neglected the humorous side of col- lege life. for. while ever avoiding vulgarity, it has always found room on its pages for a clever witticism or a good, wholesome bit of humor. Finding the Anchor on a good financial basis when it asumed management, the present staff—thanks to its Business Manager will turn it over to its successor on a better one. In their work the editors have enjoyed a pleasant and helpful year, and are confident that the new editors will find the same pleasure and helpfulness in theirs. THE ANCHOR STAFE Hditor-in-Chikf. ..

This year we presented Harold McGrath’s clever little comedy, The Man on the Box.” The ridiculous situations, the quick wit. the prevailing good humor, tempered by the clash between love and duty made a universal appeal. And we must not forget the political thread, bringing with it much intensity of honor, love and duty.

The Ultilas Club holds sacred the traditions and ideals of the founders of this institu- tion. Its very existence is proof of this fact. It aims to perpetuate the Dutch language among the students and thus to prepare them better either to preach the Gospef in later life among the still numerous Dutch adherents of our denomination, or to champion the cause of our Dutch people in civil life.

In those first weeks and months the Sorosis girls all aimed to accomplish those literary ends toward which their class rvom work led them. A year had hardly passed before their help and influence began to be felt upon the camp- us. All the members were filled with keen interest and enthusiasm and the success of the new society was certain. Each year the society grew stronger and with each succeeding year the band of Sorosis friendship meant more. The aims and aspirations of every Sorosite may well be expressed in a poem written by one of its members in those earlier years: “Another year is come Another year of life: It bring us hopes, the brightest, Great victories in the strife. It brings to us the power To make or mar at will; To give to others happiness, Or life with sorrow till. Another year of learning, Of laboring for the best. A year of preparation To meet life’s coming test. And if the past be beautiful. Or if the past be sad. Come, make the future bright with cheer!

There have been more than the ordinary number of players in most lines and a general interest has been stimulated throughout the student body. C lass athletics and in- dividual contests are on the increase, proving that the primary purpose of Coach Schouten is not a few well developed athletes, but a good healthful studentry. The instruction given the Freshmen class along the lines of right living, is worthy of the highest commendation. I lope is duly proud of Jack, because he is proud of her. He spends his best efforts and time in making better men and women of the Hopeites. Last summer our Coach spent his time studying at the Wisconsin University. In the coming summer he intends to go to the University of Michigan to learn more about physical training. We are glad he will return to Hope next fall, ready for another steady grind.

BASKETBALL The basketball season of 1921-1922 will go down in Hope's annals as having developed two of the best basketball teams in the school's history. Long before the opening game everyone realized that our prospects for the State Inter-collegiate championship were ex- ceptionally good. Coach Schouten had good material to work with and surely did his duty in turning out two very successful teams. Manager Schuurmans had arranged a schedule of twenty-four games. Fifteen of these games were played away from home and only fourteen games of the whole schedule were played with college teams. The rest of the schedule contained games with independent and professional teams. This proved to be one of the stitTest schedules in years. The open- ing game was played with the G. R. Franklin Independents, which Hope easily took by a 44-12 score. Calvin was the next victim of the speedy aggregation. The Christmas holidays arrived and Coach Schouten took his men on a delightful trip through Wisconsin. The majority of games played with professional teams, among them the Whiting Red Crowns and the Matthewsons of Sheboygan, Wisconsin. The team now returned from the wilderness of Wisconsin, confident of its ability to meet the best Michigan could offer. Two games were played with Kalamazoo College, M. I. A. A. champions, and second in the national tournament. In both games Hope out-played the champs but lost one of the games by a one point margin, thus sacrificing the claim to the State championship. Several other very interesting games were played during the remainder of the season. Two games were played with Kazoo Normals. Hope showed herself on a par with the Normals in both contests although she won but one of them. M. A. C. was met on the Fast Lansing floor, which proved to be a defeat by but one point. A trip through the eastern part of the state ended a most successful season. There were only eight defeats out of the twenty-four games played. Five of these games were lost to professional teams. Hope's total score for the season was 750, while the opponents score only tallied 458. The season was superior by far to any of the past years. The high morale of the team was reflected in the student body and in those who watched the team on the floor. Four men will be lost by graduation but we are glad to sec that the Coach lias prepared others to till the vacancies, so that we can hopefully look forward |to another season of success.

His long and accurate tossing at the basket often made the game exciting. Dyke is an- other man we will miss by being graduated in June. “Dickie” has captained Hope’s five through two successful years. He is without a doubt one of the greatest players who ever wore the Orange and Blue. There will be a big hole to fill at left forward next year, for Dickie is a senior. Garry’s” opponents always thought him to be one of the largest creatures on earth. He is one of the strongest defensive men in State basketball circles. Garry will not be back next year to jump center for his Alma Mater. “George came to Hope last fall with a good reputation and sure showed us that he could play basketball. He aided the forwards in- numerable times in running up the 1 lope score. He will be back next year to make the Pork and Beans” combination more famous. Page One Hundred Three “Beans comes from Iowa, but he is not green at the basketball game. His work lias been of the steady consistent type and could always lie depended upon. The low scores of Hope's opponents were due to a large extent to his watchful playing. “Mike in his four years stay at Hope has shown himself to he a lighter in whatever lie undertook. There were very few chances for Mike to sub at center, but when lie did he displayed real skill and sportmanship. Kennie is a plucky lad and with a little development will till up the gaps in next year’s team in a very meritablc way. Kennie is full of light and always on hand when needed. There are three more years for Kennie to look forward to. “Doc has labored most incessantly and conscientiously to develop a number of good players, and this year he has succcdcd wonder- fully.

Only eighteen men turned out for practice and consequently there were no scrimmages to bring the team into form. Many of the abler athletes could not rej ort on account of class work that extended until late in the day. I lowever. Coach Schouten made the best of the situation by keeping his men physically fit for any onslaught. It always has been the aim of our Coach to develop the player into as healthful a condition as possible. Under Jack’s care no permanent injuries have resulted in the past three years. The schedule called for combats with the foremost football machines in the State. Hillsdale was the first contestant and she kept the laurels at home. Alma, runners up in the M. I. A. A. gave Hope her second defeat. Junior College visited Holland toward the latter part of the season and were determined to over- whelm Hojk . Hut the plucky eleven did not succumb as easily as expected and Junior left with a victory of a one point margin over Hope. The Kazoo Normal game closed the season, that was seemingly tilled with defeats. But each player was benefited by the exceptionally good coaching, the Coach learned much more concerning the men. and the school learned that a successful team cannot he had without loyal supporters. We trust, that when Captain Van Xanten calls forth his men in the fall a goodly number will respond. Pi}ge One Hundred Srten Page Out Hundred Eight BASEBALL The tirst robin was still far below the Mason-Dixon line, when Coach Schouten sum- moned his big leaguers for Gym practice. A large number turned out tor daily practice and prospects looked good. The opening game was approaching, but as yet no luirler had been developed from all the good material, that had practiced so earnestly. Manager l.aug had scheduled some exceptionally strong teams, in fact, the best in the State. The tirst game was to be with M. A. C. but weather conditions prevented, and a week later the team was greeted with similar weather at Albion. With a little additional practice and a few games with the High School, which were credited to Hope, the team 'took on Kerris Institute at Big Rapids. There seemed to be a lack of confidence among some of the players and Mope lost to Ferris and also to the long experienced St. Mary’s team. The following week Kalamazoo College came to Holland and brought with her that much loved Michigan weather. The season closed with two victories over Junior College. At the end of the season the Hope aggregation was working in excellent harmony. The lidding and hitting was remarkably good. As 'oon as a pitcher is brought in to the College Halls, the team will go forth with more success. '1 here is every reason for courage, con- sidering that half of the games were won in the past season and that Hope’ competitors were seasoned players. Page One Hundred Sine Page One Hundred Ten THE H-CLUB The | ast year has brought forth a new organization, that will tend to become a strong factor in developing Athletics at Hope. The 11-Club includes all men who have been awarded the varsity letter in some branch of College sports. The bringing together of these men will unify Athletics more, and the student body will learn that one game is quite as important as another. Every man of this organization is an enthusiast, and will bend every effort to keep the Orange and Blue up to the highest standards in intercollegiate athletics. Page Of if Hundred Eleven TRACK As soon as weather conditions permitted, a call was sent out for hill and dalers. A large squad of men reported for daily practice. Kvcry man was put through a stiff course in the fundamentals of track work. The harriers soon began to show evidence of real ability and were prepared for the annual meets. A team from Grand Rapids, composed of Calvin College men and the V. M. C. A.’s l cst, were Hope's opponents in the cross-country run. The leading man was one of the visitor , but Hope overcame that by sending everyone of her runners in close succession to the leader and thus won the cup. The best time was made in this contest. There never appeared a stronger combination of runners on Hope’s squad than Kcmpcrs. Ilirman, and h'likkema. The annual relay from Grand Rapids to Holland failed to come about. The G. R. men seemed willing to grant Hope's superiority and refused to run. Schippcr was the only man of the old squad who returned to take up track work this past fall. Thus new runners were needed for the annual cros country run held at M. A. C. The leading colleges of the State, including the l of M.. participated. Hope won fourth place, which is exceptionally well for a college of her size. The Inter-class meet, which is held every spring on the Holland Fair Grounds was won by the Seniors.

HOPE—KALAMAZOO DEBATE In the annual dual debate between Hope and Kalamazoo college the unusual happened this year. Can you Guess? Both the negative and the affirmative teams met defeat. The question for debate was Resolved that the principle of the closed shop is justified. BurggraafT. Visschcr, and Blocker supported the Affirmation at Kalamazoo, while I’.ngelsma, P. De Vries, and Staplckamp defended the Negation. In explaining this unusual circumstance” we wish to comment on the marked pro- ficiency of the Kalamazoo teams. Their victories were the product of efficient coaching. Our defeat is explainable on the ground that our men entered the contest entirely uncoached. Pitted against teams that were thorolv coached, the disadvantage of the Hope men was clearly evident. What arc Hope's debating prospects for the coming year? We are glad to say that the change which is necessary to maintain our prestige in debating i under way. W ith our debating organization completely rebuilt and in charge of an efficient coach, teams, winning consistently, will again be representing Hope. Page One Hundred Nineteen HOPE ALMA DEBATE In place of the customary Triangular Debate between Alma, Olivet, and Hope, a Dual Debate between Alma and Dope was scheduled for May 19. The subject under discussion was the Pi Kappa Delta question, “Resolved, that the principle of the Closed Shop is justifiable. The affirmative was upheld at Alma by Maurice Yisscher (Capt.), Abe Rynbrandt, and Jack Prins. At home the negative was upheld by Irvin Borgman (( apt.), Harvey De Weerd, and Dan De Graff. We are confident that our representatives will do honor to the name of Hope. Poor One Hundred Twenty ORATORY Not so long ago. the little god or goddess who runs the oratorical contests in this old world below, just happened to notice that Hope College. State of Michigan, was winning far too many victories—just sort of spoiled the general effect of things you know. And although it's all planned out that we should win most of the time, this little god or goddess just arranged things so that Hope College, State of Michigan, couldn’t win all of the time. So you see it isn’t the fault of our orators that we arc not able to report a double victory this year, hut also kindly notice that we aren’t saying that both of our orators didn't deserve a victory just the same. Miss Maxine McBride was the representative for the Orange and Blue” in the Women’s contest. There wasn't a single one at the contest that could help but admit that her oration entitled “Backgrounds” was far different, very original, mighty unstcrcotyped. They had to admit that her delivery was pleasing, clear, and free. Of course we aren’t crawling hut we do feel rather peeved at that little god or goddess just the same. Mr. Winfield Burggraaff spoke for us in the men's contest. His oration was entitled “The Nation’s Heritage. Kvcryone knew that he told us something worth hearing in a way that one likes to hear things told, but we can't help the fact that Hope just wasn’t supposed to win this year. For that you may place the blame on the Oratorical god or goddess up above. Pact Out Hundrtd Twtniy ont Paw One Hundred Twenty two Page One Hundred Twenty-three DR. J. 11.

They were leaving their Fatherland that they might be true to their ideals. Bravely they faced the unknown perils and hardships of a new land: sternly they schooled themselves to undertake new tasks and to transform the wilderness they had found into the home of their ideal. The story of the growth of their colony can alone give us a true picture of their courage and bravery, their self sacrifice, their heroic endeavors to make the future far greater than the past had ever been. As you read this little history, keep clearly before you the picture of that band of sturdy pilgrims who followed steadily the light ahead. Then you will have the complete setting in a study in “Heroism.” FIRST EPISODE The greatest movements in history have been the results of affliction and suffering, of adversity and oppression. The staunchest, bravest souls have been those which have been Rested and tried by sorrow and misfortune. And when the Old World has pressed and fcrushed the hearts of its people with the vise-like grip of tyranny,—the New World has stood beckoning, a haven for the persecuted and oppressed. In the first episode of the history of Hope College, we shall deal chiefly with the found- ing of Holland, Michigan, for the college was essentially an outgrowth and reflection of the spirit that led the intrepid Dutch pioneers to colonize and establish their city. In 1846 a meeting was held in Amsterdam to make plans for a proposed emigration to the Dutch East Indies, in order to escape the cruel religious persecutions that still existed under the Code Napoleon and to relieve the wide-spread poverty and destitution that were prevalent at the time. The East Indian expedition was soon rejected, and in the spring of 1846, Mr. A. Hart- gerink and J. Arnold were commissioned to start for America and report on conditions favorable for colonization. Dr. Van Raalte. the leader of the movement, gave them letters of introduction to Dr. Dc Witt. They duly set forth, reporting most favorably on conditions as they found them. Emigration to America now became a certain thing, and on October 14. 1846. the ship Southerner set forth from Rotterdam, bearing the first Dutch pioneers. After a lengthy voyage, they reached New York, and thence proceeded to Detroit to locate for winter quarters. But Dr. Van Raalte did not rest until he had discovered a spot, ideally situated, for his colony. Accompanied by Judge Kellogg of Allegan and an Indian guide, he reached the present location of Holland. December 1846. Satisfied with the site so conveniently situated on the shore of Lake Michigan, in the heart of a rich farming district, lie decided to locate there. A month later the party started from Detroit, arriving at Holland on February 12. 1847. In March another band of colonists arrived from New York, and were welcomed by their country-men. Faithfully the men applied themselves to the making of roads and the construction of rude log sheds. Although the winter was most severe, and food and supplies were brought up mainly from Allegan,- by the spring of the year conditions were relieved so the colonists began to farm the lands for themselves. The year 1849 marks the erection of the first church. It was a rude log affair, but to our forefathers it was the realization of their religious dreams.— the symbol of their struggles and hardships. Not only did it serve as a church, but also as a center for the educational and social interests of the community. Many are the Indian stories and legends that have been handed down from those early days. One happy fact, however, is certain,—the red men and their Dutch brothers always dwelt together in ] cace and harmony. Thus ends the tale of the early founding and settlement of Holland, but in the courage and bravery of these Dutch pioneers can be traced and reflected the growth and spirit of Hope College. F'ogr One Hundrtd Thirty CAMPUS IN 1866 SECOND EPISODIC That little settlement on the hanks of Black Lake grew rapidly. The people felt that one important thing, however, was lacking, no definite provision for education had yet been made. Could they allow their enterprise to fail ultimately because at the very beginning they had failed to provide for the future? Accordingly in 1851. Walter C. Taylor of Geneva, X. V. was called to take charge of their growing school. New leaders always bring new plans and a new est for any enterprise. This case was no exception. Dr. Van Raalte expressed his hopes for the future of this school, but recently founded, in the first report to the general synod which contained these memorable words: f'This is my Anchor of Hope for this people in the future.” Those two words “Anchor and “Mope’’—what have they not come to mean to us to-day? Where should a proposed institution for higher learning Ik- erected? That was the next question. It was satisfactorily settled in 1853 when Dr. Van Raalte gave live acres of land in Block 1, for the location of Holland Academy. Block L it sounds dry and uninteresting enough on paper hut that portion of it has become hallowed ground! Van Vlcck Hall has the great distinction of being the tir t large building erected on our campus. At present its glory may be dimmed, and it splendor may have passed away, hut pay homage to it, ye sons and daughters of Hope, in memory of the time when it lifted high its now hoary head as the forerunner of greater things. Did you ever hear of the “missionary ship?” Even while the people of Holland were busily planning for the future of their posterity, they also kept in mind the outside world. Hope College was to he a light to the work! as well as to America. Dr. Phelps was the first to propose the plan of the missionary ship. It was to be built by the | cople of Holland to carry the students educated at Hope across the waters to their work on the mission fields in heathen lands. The plan met immediate enthusiastic response. A piece of ground on Black Lake was hired as a ship yard, and on June 24. 18M. the keel of the ship was laid amid much ceremony and general rejoicing. The missionary ship was never finished. A part of the keel still remains in the Museum as a testimony of the first attempts to carry out the idea. It was not a visionary scheme on the part of short-sighted people for it could have succeeded if they had kept right on working. But new interests demanded their attention and the enthusiasm of the people in general waned. That crumbling keel of the missionary ship, however, first kindled the lire of missionary zeal which now burns so brightly at Hope. Not one missionary ship but a whole fleet of ships have sailed from Holland. Michigan, to foreign lands while, The old oak keel lies a-mouldering in the grave, But its soul goes marching on.” f’OKf One Hundred Thirty one THIRD EPISODE The initial step in the education of the youth of the colony had been taken with the establishment of the Holland Academy, but the fondest dreams of the sturdy Dutch pioneers had ended there, and it was left to the dominating genius of one man to carry the work on- ward and bring the unfinished hopes into a splendid, living reality. That one man was Dr. Philip Phelps, and it was due to his earnest, tireless efforts that the struggling little Academy emerged into the ranks of a collegiate institution. The great work was launched and the battle was half won when, in 1862, the graduates of the Academy were enrolled as a Freshman Class. These men and their inspiring leader formed the nucleus of our Hope.—and how strong a foundation they achieved may be witnessed by the mighty edifice that time has reared up with the passing years. The Synod of Chicago heartily entered into co-operation with Dr. Phelps and in 1864 endorsed a campaign to raise eighty-live thousand dollars for the further development of itlie school. In the meantime, the solitary teaching responsibility which had rested with the principal, was relieved by the addition of three worthy instructors, Rev. T. Romeyn Beck. Rev. P. J. Oggcl, and Rev. J. Mason Ferris. This gave Principal Phelps time to mark the first notable Milestone in the history of the school, when the College was incorporated under the state law. May 14. 1866. Straightway the Board of Education appointed Dr. Phelps the first President of Hope College and authorized five other appointments to the faculty. The great event was recog- nized in the inauguration, which took place July 12. 1866. and the first College Commence- ment on July 14. 1866. But the time in which the staunch leader had launched his ship of Hope was rough and troublesome, and obstacles and disheartening failures were encountered on every side. Nevertheless, Dr. Phelps persevered with rare and noble patience, teaching more classes than an ordinary day could seem to hold, working and preaching the gospel of Christian education at home and abroad. And when in 1877. the college was reorganized on a new basis. Dr. Phelps tendered his resignation to the school for which lie had labored the labor of love. Thus with the passing of this great, outstanding figure in the history of the school, a chapter was finished and a brilliant period brought to a glorious close. FOURTH EPISODE The year 1877 marked another im|K rtant Milestone in the history of Hope.— one written in darning letters which stand forth clearly even after these many years that have rolled be- tween. What made it so important? hirst of all. the college was being reorganized on a new basis. Decisive steps were taken to lift the heavy debt with which the College had been burdened. Thus one black cloud was lifted to make room for another ray of sunlight for future prosperity. The faculty was once more increased and. as a natural result, the course of study was broadened, the standard of scholarship raised, and with a bound Hope College sprang forth o take her rightful place among the other educational institutions of the country. The dreams of its founder were being slowly realized. Dr. Scott became the second president and successfully carried on the work begun by his predecessor. And then.—co-education was adopted. Two young ladies were enrolled as students that same year. The precedent thus established, the succeeding years saw many more added to the list. And who shall say that they have not been an important factor in the rapid growli of Hope since that time? Another episode with far-reaching results was ended. THE OLD GYMX S11M Page One Hundred Thirty-two FIFTH EPISODE hat may be termed the “(«olden Ape in this chain of narratives was ushered in with the ascension of Dr Kollen to the presidency in 1894. It was verily an ape of construction and growth. The four main buildings that grace our campus to-day were erected chiefly through the efforts of Dr. Kollen. who was tireless in raising the funds for their con- struction and equipment. Graves Library and inants Chapel. Hope's most picturesque and beautiful edifice, was a product of this era. Van Kaalte Memorial Hall, named in honor of the donor of its site, and the father of the college followed next. Then Carnegie Gymnasium, spacious and splendidly equipped for the furtherance of the health and athletic prowess of the students, was erected, followed by Voorhces Hall, the women’s residence. But the achievements of this period did not rest only with the erection of buildings. The meagre faculty, composed of nine members, was enlarged until it included twenty-one; the student enrollment was greatly increased; and the permanent funds advanced to nearly $400,000. What, you would ask. was the nature and character of the man who sponsored this golden era? To us, who knew him. we would answer that he was simply Dr. Kollen.—but to the host of friends who have lived and benefited by his labor, he should be something more than a name. Striking and arresting in appearance, lie was a man among men. a fatherly, comradely friend on whom students could lean in the hour of trouble.—a staunch heart that could rise to visions of greater service, and yet would stoop to assume the lowliest burdens and tasks. The smallest child would smile when he passed by, and old gray haired men counted him their friend. This,—was our Dr. Kollen. SIXTH EPISODE After having given forty years of this faithful, devoted service to the College. Dr. Kollen felt constrained to resign his office in 1911 and to pass it on to his successor. Rev. Arne Vennema. Conditions were better than they had ever been before, but Dr. Vennema plunged right into the work and made them the best they had ever been. Soon the faculty comprised twenty-three members and the enrollment had increased to 424 students. The work was staunchly supported by the Church and the many friends of Hope scattered throughout the world. The future indeed lay bright before them. In 1916 the semi-centennial, the celebration of the fiftieth birthday of Hope College was held. That was the jubilee year at college. A great pageant was presented by the students which brought back to mind the heroic spirit of the early settlers, and the intensity of their ideals for the future. It outlined the development of our school so that we could see how wondrously the work had been blessed. With Mich a past behind them, there seemed to be no limit to what Hope could do in its march along the golden road ahead. SEVENTH EPISODE This is our day! Dr. Dimncnt began to speak officially from the Chapel platform in 1918 and has continued to do so up to the present time. Sometimes we have been highly praised for the glorious victories we have brought to Hoj e and sometimes very few times—we have been gently chided for permitting Hope's banner to trail in the dust. Slow- ly but surely our number has grown until our eyes grew wide with wonder at the unsurpassed registration of the present Freshman Class—148. Hope is steadily forging ahead in collegiate circles. In Forensics thanks to the efforts of Dr. Nykerk we have won fame throughout the length and breadth of Michigan and even beyond. Ax students perhaps we do not appreciate to the full the advantages of our curri- culum but just ask any member of the faculty to point that out to von ami you will receive a satisfactory explanation. As for athletics Hope is right in the foreground there and gives place to no college. If it can be done. Hope goes in for it and makes every effort to emerge as victor. We arc today earnestly striving to carry out the ideals oi the early founders of our school. EPILOGUE The last stage in the development of Hope College has been narrated, the laM scene in the slow, sure pageant of its progress has l een presented, and in the short interlude of the present,—the hushed, transparent curtain that bridges the intangible gulf between present and future hides the view. But we. the spectators, catch the taint, rosy light that floods the misted scene; we sense the greatness of the things that arc in the making, and the dimmed figures that are striving, even as the leaders of the past have striven, to create greater and nobler things. And when the interlude is finished, and the glaring lights of the present day die down into the faint, warm glow of the past, the curtain will be pulled aside and the scene and its makers will stand forth.—revealed in all the glory of their works. This is the promise of the future as long as you. Hope men and women, believe as did your forefathers. “Si-kra in Dko. Ta£f 0 f Httndttd Thirty ihrt “EVEN AS—” U-ANN I IAN YEW. It was a proverbial Blue Monday. Blue-gray was the soot that drifted in through U- Ann's court-yard window, blue was the i astel shaded milk that covered Ian’s forlorn oasis of lumpy Dormitory oatmeal; blue, a cold, bleak hazy blue was the atmosphere that pervaded Voorhees Hall due to a little eccentricity on the part of the electricity; blue, instead of black ink was all the family darning basket boasted, when U-Ann feverishly rummaged in its depths for a last minute remedy for a provoking little heel hole. (Yes! it’s done in the best of Voorhees families). And to prove that rules arc invincible and iron-clad, even as we learned them in Prep.—the sky was decidedly not blur. This of course, was the exception that proved the rule as to Blueness and Mondays in general. Just as U-Ann was scrambling wildly for the necessary books and books of note (You and I all have them, with a question mark after the note): just as Ian was giving a last hopeless glance in the direction of the Dorm.— the school-bell commenced its fateful tolling, and the Faculty began its low, relentless, awe-inspiring march down the aisle. Hastily. U-Ann pawed under the bureau among the jumble of things that made their happy home there, and rescued two rubbers.—not a pair, but Izvo rubbers. Like a streak of blue lightning she scuffled down the side-walk to Chapel, arriving breathless but triumphant at the rear end of the solemn procession, exactly like a puffing, jubilant, little calliope at the end of the circus parade. Too late to make a dash for the front seats, too late to sprint for a lone, prize back seat into which a portly Seminole was settling with a sigh of relief,—U-Ann halted abashed at the portals with a multiplying group of her sisterhood. The responses at length came to a close,—and an ominous silence pervaded the room. U-Ann could fairly hear the craning squeak of necks as they twirled her way. It was the lull before the storm. In vain she huddled and crunched down among her neighbors, but she could feel them melt treacherously away. Then came the inevitable summons. Will the foolish virgins who are loitering at the gate, kindly pick up their lamps, and light the forward part of the house? There was an awkward hush, while the ranks of the virgins broke into panic-stricken confusion. Silence, and again,—more silence. I'-Aim’s face turned a pinched blue. Then— A-hem, will Miss U-Ann please lead bet sisters down to the places prepared for them ? Automatically, feeling herself the foolishest of the foolish, U-Ann headed a long line of wavering, giggling other I' Anns down—down—down! Meanwhile in one of the prize back scats. Ian shuffled his feet nervously, and clenched his hands spasmodically as he watched that long, wavering line with U-Ann at the head go down—down—down! Through the maze of thoughts running through his mind, he was conscious of little snatches here and there.— Junior party to-night—At Tennessee, they say—U-Ann. will you go with me Constitutional test with Wich first period—Haven't got any paper—get a blue l ook right after Chapel- Wonder if she’ll go—s’pose she has a date?—’d be just my luck!—Don’t know a thing history or otherwise—When'll 1 ask her—bulletin board Van Raalte.” In tbe general uprising Ian took a flying hurdle over the rear seats and doggedly planted himself at the end of the blue book line that stretched from the book agency to the very outskirts of the torture chamber itself. “—Blue books all gone? Well, give me some paper all out of that!—There goes the bel!! The last fearful straggler, after sundry glances into his book of note, had crossed the Rubicon and was tremblingly awaiting the trial by ordeal from which few escaped un- scathed. Ian glanced helplessly about him. Neither friend nor foe was in sight. Frenzied- ly he searched his pockets, not a scrap of paper to lie found. Returning to the book agency, he pleaded,— Gimme something—anything—it’s with Wich!” What!—with Wich? The book agent instantly recognized a common bond. Hadn't he taken American Diplomacy last year?— How about this?”.--and he snatched the wrap- ping paper from a bundle of books that had just arrived. Page One Hundred Thi'ty-foui “Fine that'll do! and with a bound Ian was in the classroom. One glance at his suffering classmates foretold the worst. A pinched blue look, common to Mondays and His- tory tests, had settled upon each face. Here and there a low moan escaped as some would- be historian writhed and twisted under the Inquisition. Others were making faint gibes in an endeavor to keep up their morale, with a sickly grin stamped on their countenance. One question blared forth with mocking flourishes from the dreary, bluish-grav board:— “Outline the Constitutional Development of England from Prc-historic—up to the present time.” The utter, sweet simplicity of that question was what made it so woefully tragic. “And then, added the head of the History Department, lest you find time hang heavy on your hands, suppose you write brief but exhaustive essays upon the following: Canute, Prime Minister to the Queen of Scotts. —“Pit Son, Inc.. “Gudolphin of Arc,”—Flam- bard. the Fuzzy Frump of Finland, alias, Relentless Rudolph.”—“The Case of Harney Google vs. Morte D'Anccstor. and its effect upon the Constitution. Walpole, nee Mrs. Masham-Goode, (Here the student may take his choice), Explain and interpret the old Anglo-Saxon title- -Ettubrutc.” or “Discuss the Flight of Jcnkin’s Ear and its sinister bear- ing upon the Norman Invasion.” The edge of Ian's pencil had dwindled down to a grating stump before the bells twinkled forth their paen of liberty. Wearily lu- stumbled forth to lay the fruits of a be- fogged brain upon the Professor’s desk,—but wait, the Blue book’s P. S. had been over- looked. I pledge my honor—given help—,”—it stared up at him with hollow mockery. Hut,—the worst and best was yet to come. Down Main Street” he rushed with a bound, charging chain-gangs of Prep, students, dispersing crowds of chattering pedestrians, and nearly coming to grief where the traffic was heaviest, at the corner of Van Raalte Hlvd. and Winant's avenue. Vttering incoherent mumblings translated as “G’mornin”’ (in tile case of a faculty meml er). and “11 ih'ar’yas with lesser folk, lie achieved the threshold of Van Raalte I lall,—to Ik- met with a hideous spectacle! There, in plain sight and view, beneath the very shadow of the bulletin board was U- Ann and another Ian Yew. He was not nearly so nice as our Ian, for he wore polka-dot ties and was addicted to For-gct-me-not perfumes.—let that suffice. Hut he was helping U-Ann slip on the refractory left rubber in a most cavalier-like manner. “Aw-how does he get that way! groaned Ian as lie slunk away. S’i ose lie’s gone and made a date for the party.—and he’s just a special, too. and hasn't even paid his class dues. Pro'bly be in the Anchor too, what's lie think he is- Sir Walter Raleigh!” Hut oh, Ian. if you could ever be a U-Ann. As i the way with U-Anns all the world over, her heart was banging so loud that it sounded like a dinner gong, and the foot that didn’t match up with its rubber, was wobbling in ague-like tits. And to top it all off, the would-be cavalier limped miserably forth with a most un-Raleigh like.— U-Ann, can I see you home after the party to-night? Then did L’-Ann arise in righteous wrath, and stamping her foot with a vigor that sent the rubber flying ceiling-ward, she pointed an accusing linger at this special” Ian. You, she said. “Are the reason why girls go S. G. A. Thank you,—no! Of course L can't accept Ian Jr.'s invitation now—not that he asked me—but—I was sure, that is. and she ended in a miserable wail and hurriedly precipitated herself into the tide that was flowing towards the door. It was Hlue Monday now for another Ian,—and he slouched miserably out-doors, as blue as his own forget-me-nots and polka-dot . As for U-Ann,—“it never rain's but it pours.” and the umbrella that she was en- deavoring to keep up-right had a most engaging and peculiar manner of collapsing every two minutes, due to a slight ailment in one of its ribs. Indeed. I'-Ann had named it. “Old Faithful.” and as she maneuvered down the walk, occupied with her bitter thoughts, the solution of the whole problem suddenly came to her. I have it.” she jubilated. Goloshes! Why didn’t I ever think of them before? If it hadn't been for my rubbers—I wouldn’t have been late for Chapel.—if it hadn't been for rubbers.—Ian Jr. would have—and that special Ian—wouldn't have—. I'll go down- town right now. and get the jingliest ones I can find. Hut.—-there’s Education this hour. - well, the Prof. wasn't there, and five minutes is the time limit. However, Professors have a disconcerting habit of meeting stray-a-way pupils abroad, and none knew that so well as U-Ann I. “Anyway.” she reasoned gleefully, “'If Winter Comes,—I won’t be far behind !’ So down-town she tramped joyously, and purchased the best specimens that the Arctic regions afforded. Straightway, home she jingled, with all l ells on. and fell hungrily in line for the luncheon that was given at Voorhees. Now, Ian was a waiter, that is, lie was one of those mortals who wait on, and in the l’a (e One Hundred Thirty five hopes that the diners won't eat up everything, and leave nothing—for the waiter. Rut a Voorhccs waiter waits for no man. no indeed, only for himself, which doesn’t count. And he discredits utterly that little formula that.—‘‘Everything comes to he who waits.” He would starve if he did.—so he puts away and reserves “(you know how), and waits for the happy hour that is waiting for the waitful waiter. Call it co-incidence, pre-arrangement, or what you will, that Ian waited on U-Ann’s table. And of course all's fair in love and food.—so naturally Ian managed to mumble a few words to U-Ann between the Blue Monday Campbell’s and Blue-points. __“U-Ann.—that Junior party to-night,—have you an’—er—.” N'o—but I can't—something happened. I'm—.” “Sure. S’all right, grimly. 1 saw it!” And Ian endeavored to show all beholders just how poised and unmoved he was, by supporting a laden tray on one sturdy finger, in true Ringling style. All of which was very fetching, although slightly detrimental to the health of one vegetable dish and two soup bowls. But there’s an end to all bad things, even Blue Mondays,—and after U-Ann had spent the afternoon in Laboratory, and emerged with only two cut fingers, seven smashed testing- tubes. and a record of two fires at her desk, she buckled up her goloshes and hurried down to the waiting Junior bus. Somewhere, hanging onto the back steps in forlorn, cold com- panionship with the ice-cream freezer, was lan. The last arrival panted in. the last Junior returned with that extra coat, the horn blew.—and they were off! It was just a Junior party,—to those who arc familiar with the brand, nothing more need be said. Of course there was the inevitable Grand Right and Left.” during the process of which one worried and shivered alternately until a kindly fate ordained things so that you were the lonely remnant left over. Then there was the gentle, refined game called Three deep. in which, if you were lucky, you sustained only one sprained finger, a wrenched back and minor, negligible injuries. But don’t forget the zero hour, in which the bus arrives, everyone scrambles for their wraps, and the vital question is—: To be zi’it i-—or without!” If you belong to the common ordinary run of You and I's, you are like U-Ann,— “without. and jolt home in bleak, single-blessedness in the front of the bus. crouched down between the driver and a low-murmuring couple.—every now and then lifting your voice feebly to join in,— I ain’t got nobody much, -but I don't give an all-fired care!” You’re not so sure about the latter part of the ditty, and you rather suspect the person who wrote it was a cynic and had suffered greatly at the hands of class parties. But to return to Ian,—chuckling fate had one more blow to deal him. He went home. —even as U-Ann 1. but most decidedly with ’—the chaperone. How it happened, no one knew—not even Ian. But let us draw a veil. The twinkling lights of Voorhccs at length hove in view.—everyone dis-embarked in various stages of sleepiness and crampcdncss, -everybody wished everybody else— Many happy returns, and many more like ’em. And another Junior party was over, but not for U-Ann and Ian. Veering breathlessly around the corner of the reception room. U-Ann ran straight into the arriving chaperon and Ian. Hampered by a dragging flap of her golosh, she tumbled in an inglorious, graceless heap at their very feet. It was the last straw.—the beautiful, finishing touch to the end of a perfect Monday. Flushed and hot with mortification, she staggered up. Why. U-Ann,” cried the kindly chaperon, as she noticed a blue bump swelling rapid- ly on U-Ann’s temple. You’ve hurt yourself, wait a minute. I'll run upstairs for the witchhazcl.” Bless her heart, she was a chaperon worth having, was this one. There was an awkward pause, then:— Say l’-Ann.- honest I'm awfully sorry that I didn’t ask you to the party before,—but I thought,—you know, and“(with a feverish spurt.) Will you go to the Senior Play with me ?” Will I?” U-Ann's eyes shone. “Thank you,— yes! And then because he was even as- You and I. and couldn’t resist it, he said with much pride. We’ll have a lot of fun. I guess, I’ve got dandy scats,—third row.—not so bad. eh? “Bad I guess not,” glowed U-Ann. And then, because she was forgetful and “even as You and I. she added, Mv. but this has been a lovely day!” All of which goes to prove the rule that Ian Yew and U-Aim I, were even as all You and I’s;—and that Mondays arc never so blue as they are painted. By,— YOU AND I. Page One Hundred Thirty-six A VERSE OR TWO POEMS At Sunset The sun with its golden beams is sinking Behind a misty veil of blue.

Some say we dream of what we most desire, And true it seems: 1 dearly wish for Spring,— For birds and flowers and fragrant blossomed trees.

Autumn When do we know that the fall is here? When the stiff-limbed cats by the wood-fire sleep. And the pale-gold juices slowly seep From the cider press, and the barns are full. When even the clock in the hall feels dull. And painfully rouses to sound the hour. And the unpicked melons begin to sour. We know that the fall is here. —J.M. De Haan.

MINERVA SOCIETY For more than a quarter of a century. Minerva has been worshipped faithfully at her shrine. She is the oldest of the girl's societies on the campus; the mother of the Sorosis and Delphi societies. When in 18% a literary society was founded on the campus, it was a combination of college and “prep girls. As the membership increasesd, a serr- ation was called for, and the “prep girls had to paddle their own canoe. And Minerva has not been worshipped in vain. A spirit of good fellowship is felt and appreciated among the “prep girls. I'.very member loves Minerva and is trying her best to live up to the noble ideals of the society. Kaeh girl feels that she is l cnefitted greatly and also derives a great deal of pleasure from the weekly meetings. Minerva, to thee, we will ever l e true. We will love thee ’till death do us part. We will honor the name, we will e'er spread the fame Of Minerva, so dear to our heart.

Since then every efifort has been strained to keep Meliplione loyal and worthy of its tradition. At present jt has a membership of thirty-two. Kach Friday evening the members meet for their weekly program, which has as its purpose intellectual development chiefly along literary lines, and is composed of debates, orations, essays, and other literary work. The kindly, yet severe, criticisms after each delivery are exceedingly helpful. At the close of each school year a play is staged, the appreciation and success of which are revealed in the large audiences always present. The society has also a strong purpose for social development. Joint meetings with the sister society. Minerva, are held occasionally. The annual banquet also does much in aiding its social purpose. Representatives of Meliplione are scattered over the whole world, but in the heart of each. Meliplione holds and will continue to hold a warm place. OFFICERS Fall Winter Spring President....

Basketball is the principal sport, which is well supported by every Prcpite. Several out of town games were scheduled this past season, and in return these games were played on the home floor. Some very interesting games, preliminary to the college games, were played. There are- several native Americans on the team, which tends to make the work exceptionally speedy. Coopersvillc and several of the smaller towns in the vicinity of I iolland found that the team was surprisingly strong. The colllege is looking forward to the time when these men can qualify for positions on the varsity teams. f’axe One Hundred Forty eight PREP. SCIENCE CLUB One of the youngest organizations of the Preparatory School is its Science Club. Organized a little le s than three years ago, it has been progressing steadily in its activities. Only those who have shown a marked interest in science have been chosen as members. Practical knowledge is derived from the bi-weekly meetings thru the reports rendered by its members and talks of more advanced science students and heads of the Science Department. The club has proven itself a helpful element in the life of its members thru its practical purpose of broadening their outlook on the held of science.

Altho we are not connected with the College by being under the same adminis- tration. yet there seems to he an even stronger connection in the fact that so many of the Seminoles have spent their college years at I lojie. and they still cherish fond memories of fun and fellowship enjoyed there. The Seminary men. altho generally found in their rooms, sermonizing, always find time to attend the college contests, both athletic and forensic, and are always boosting for Hope. The width of Twelfth street does not in reality divide the College from the men ‘across the road.” Together we honor some of the leading religious thinkers who are graduates of both schools. Western Seminary is. like Hope, under the control of the Reformed Church of America. Its purpose is to train College graduates and fit them after a three years course for service in the gospel ministry. Its faculty is comprised of five ordained ministers, consecrated men, well qualified to teach the branches for which they have been chosen. Practically all the ministers of the Reformed Church in the western states and in the middle west are graduates of this school, and Western Seminary is yearly trying to supply the ever increasing demand for jxastors in those churches. There is a growing need for men who arc ready and willing to offer them- selves for that greatest of all services, the service of the Master. The call for more consecrated men is continually ringing, and the Western Seminary is prepared to care for such young men who have the desire for that service. f’age One Hundred Fifty two SEMINARY FACULTY Rkv.

THE HOMECOMING There was a boy from Iowa put out to go to college. With mule-like ears, and an aching void he hoped to fill with knowledge. So he arrived at Hope College one wet and foggy dawning And set about to till the space beneath his low-thatched awning. But never a book he opened for eight and forty moons He wrote some touching letters and he had some darn fine spoons. So home he went to Iowa, where his father came to ask. Was they able to lain you. Si. and be you ready for your task?” Then Silas turned his Beech Xut inside his massaged cheek And he said. At least the Bible says, ‘Blessed are those who seek.’ I’ve been at school four years or more and though I was never known to fail I haven’t learned a gol darn thing, ’ccpt how to spend your kale.

However, sitting in a tub of air docs not make one wet. Air is especially a nuisance to airplanes when it forms a pocket. To Ik- in an air pocket is very tough. Then there arc million air , they have a corner on all the greenbacks. It is convenient but monotonous. Musical airs must not be confused with the general subject as those airs are purely figurative. Lots of people shoot hot air. Not many arc able to shoot cold air. That is because air expands when heated and is easier to shoot. All air finally becomes laden with dust and therefore is «lust. Man finally becomes dust. Therefore man is air and vice versa, according to the ritual of the revised Ullilas. Hence the derivation of the term solitaire. Page One Hundred Eighty-eight BARS There arc good and had bars. Bars furnished the inspiration for the book: “Ten Nights In A Bar Room.” The bar pictured in this book is fast becoming obsolete, hence the book will not be understood by future generations. Then there arc bar-bers and bar-bar-ians. They arc somewhat similar in that they have enormous ability to wield knives. Lawyers are considered members of the bar. This is an example of a bad bar in con- sideration of the composition. Criminals avoid being placed behind the bars by the lying of Bar Members. Tennyson wrote. “Crossing The Bar.” This bar is similar to the one in Ten Nights In A Bar Room.” Sand bars are distinguished from other bars since they are composed entirely of sand. According to the By-laws of the S. G. A. the end of man is sand. We have reached a point where bars arc sand. lienee the end of this essay.
