The area of the county is approximately 154 jsquare miles, of which Kansas City occupies 19 square miles. The topography of the country is mostly rolling, with fertile alley and rich upland, liberally productive in general farm crops, live stock, fruit and garden truck. Ranking fifteenth in the United States as a manufacturing center, Kansas City is conspicuous for its high value of products in proportion to population. This situation, coupled with the great number of homes owned by the occupants, makes for satis- faction in home life and contributes to permanent growth and general stability of property values. Schools, churches, hospitals, transporta- tion facilities, are all sources of pride to the citizen of this citv. II Topcka, the beautiful and cultured cnpi I i of the great state of Kansas, is the coui i 1 seat of Shawnee Count -. It is impossil I y I to do her justice in the few words tliat c n f i% he demoted to her here. IP 1 opcka offers every reward of tlie husln ' - 1 world. She has every advantage desii i A f ' one seeldng a home. She is rich in ed 1 cationa! facilities. She is often said to 1 11 the political, the social, the educational, 1 1 4Mi, industrial center of the great state ..f Kans ' ' ■Ai Y% A citv of iO.OOn liand-picked livel i prosperous, and contented citizens; v || more churches and schools in proportion || its population than any other cin in ll || United States, and being the capital of tl 1 grealesl state in t liel ' nion, ' ropeka has cm Jl reason 1,, be proud. Kansas is pr,,ud I i LF.A ' KN VORTH. I.ca c-nworth Countv. of which Leaven Ip worth is the county seat with a populati n ' i% of 25,000, is the oldest countv in the state i I and occupies an important and advantage! u J I position both as to commerce and agricultuic i% The countv is rich in resources; the aericul ■ tviraUands are not excelled in fertility, and i . a live stock producing section, it offers un • p limited advantages. 1 nworth has not grown to her size | i |§ and prominence by eras of boom, but, on ihc Ml i% other hand, has had a natural and stead i4, growth, the result and effort of her own ' i people. In quality of homes, schools an I % ji churches, no city of her size outranks h r IP . ' , Leavenworth is the home of the larg t ilitary post in the United States; of th i M NatioanI Soldiers Home, and a Fedeill 11 _ :. .• i • J penitentiary. 111 :| -q i m i i! WICHITA. IP 1 •■Wauh Wichita Win is the slogan that 1 has inspired the people of Wichita to mal e 1 1 (jf their cit - one of tlie most enterprising J I commercial centers of the entire Southwest. % - s a distributing point, Wichita is without a ' rival in this vast territory. 1 1 Located as she is in the midst of the great i! | farming and stock raising country, sur- i| rounded by a territory rich in all of the m natural resources, equipped witli the best pl transportation facilities, pro ided with a « climate that has no equal, and backed by 4| citizenship that believes in licr future, ■ || Wichita is destined to become one of the Ip greatest of our inland cities. 1 In her marvelous commercial growth, 1 Wichita has not neglected the social and II educational features that are so necessary 1 1 for an enlightened people. Her schools, 1 churclies, hospitals, libraries, parks and 1 1 clubs are not excelled by cities of mucli 1 1 larger population. Hut Wichita must be ' ' , seen to be ipprcciittd f % ' 4 ' A DoJfC Cil - is tlie metropolis of tli;il asl territory known as Sonthwcst Kansas, and is the capital city of Ford County. She has nearly 5,000 people and is still j;ro vini. rapidly. . traveler seeing Dodge City for the first time can hardly realize it is in western Kan- sas. He sees a town with paved streets; ; modern lighting s ' stem with the wires underground; a modern telephone system; ; court house built of dressed stone; a higl school building that cost 3100,000, and man other improvements that are found onh ' ii i J • ■ i% modern cities. II 1 Dodge City is probably growing faste 1 than any other citj ' her size in the state having spent over half a million dollars in 1 building operations during 1915. The home I building has kept pace with the busines 1 growth, and prospects are promising for ; 1 bigger and better Dodge City. «i 11 CurtL. ]lli. lb A prubpeiou!. (_il. ut l.S.UUO inhabitants, situated two miles from the Oklahoma line in Montgomery County, and although located in a splendid farming dis- trict, it is a factory town, having, perhaps, more factories than any other town in the state. 1 Among the large industries, Coffeyville has four railroads, two interurban lines, three oil refineries, one zinc oxide plant, five flour mills and elevators, two foundries and machine shops, four brick plants and many other smaller factories. The payroll of these concerns exceeds ?200,C00 monthly. Coffeyville claims the second largest out- going tonnage in the state, the best and cheapest light and water system in the state, and a White Way that is second to none. Slie has good schools, good churches, good pa ing, and is a city noted for iier beautiful h nu 111 11 MANHATTAN. Manhattan is situated in a beautiful valley at the junction of the Blue and Kan sas Rivers, and is surrounded by one of tlu finest agricultural sections of the West. SIk has a population of 8,000 enterprising nti zens and is the county seatof RileyCount As a city of beautiful homes and well-lcpt streets, Manhattan has a state-wide repu tation. The State Agricultural Collete brings to the city each year, over three thousand of the choicest young peopli of not only Kansas, but of all the states in the Union. The superior educational ad in tages have been largely responsible for the select citizenship of the city. Social advantages are of the higlie t quality. Eighteen denominations have tint church properties valued at over a quartci of a million dollars. A free public libr,u two first-class hospitals and a city pari t forty-five acres. Eureka Lake with its fin grounds and park, and many surroundin points of interest all go to make Manli u tan a desirable place in which to live. i 4 41 i 1 i To be judged the most ideal second-clas: city in the state of Kansas in which to rear children, is one of the greatest honors thai could come to a city, and this honor was won in 1915 by Winfield, the county seal of Cowley County. When the judges whc selected Winfield as the winner, saw the ideal school system, the provisions for play- grounds, and the splendid social environ- ment for which this city is noted, they were glad to tie the blue ribbon here. Besides being a model home town, Win- field ranks high as a commercial center. She lies in the center of the great oil and gas district. She has the largest per capita wealth of any city in the state. She is situated in a rich agricultural region that is helping her in a steady growth. The busi- ness men of this city realize that the farmers also, are necessary for a city ' s growth and all work together for the interests of the whole community. yOoya yytz vD e ' 6 i JiAy.t -,cj-V;ii ' ri: •:: ■ r - d:-!m%fiSMxi- - 20 •rA-; ypoyo7yT(uyD7e Vc Hon.

I. -Il (pllecjelfe ear [A i : f ' . vy ypoyo yy( y: e 6 e y:y e V6 Arrival It is usually raining when the students arrive — a gloomy, drizzly rain that makes the new student long for home and mother, and causes the Senior to sigh and say ' Twas ever thus. It was raining when he first came to Manhattan and it has rained at the beginning of every school year since. The weather is not bad enough, however to discourage the members of the Y. M. and Y. W. C. A. They are at the stations in full force, to rescue the wild-eved Freshman from imasinarv evils. y oya yO( yD e ' o nobly do they work— assuring enterprising students that the President is really not keeping roomers this year, hunting lost pocket-books for distracted girls, and helping students, old and new, find rooming places. Meanwhile the stations keep watch over the newcomers. What strange creatures! Some are timid and retiring, others fairly fhng their high-school monograms in the face of the world. And what changes take place! Do the old stations recognize in the dignified Senior of today, the Freshman of four vears ago.? ' )u yD e ' 6 Registration 1 This painful, hut necessary step, or rather standstill, takes place in the Gym. First the powers that be, divide the sheep from the goats — the upper classmen enter at the right-hand door and the under classmen at the left — that is, they attempt to enter. As a rule, all are compelled to stand in line for an hour or two before they are really admitted. Presumably this is to take away all inborn ideas of personal liberty and make the student properly submissive. Immediately upon entering he must write down his past history and answer all sorts of prying questions concerning measles, mumps, chicken-pox, and even his age. This is also very subduing, and by the time the student reaches the main floor of the gym, he hands his money over to the Registrar without a murmur. 52 ff yPoyo yOu vD fir;: ' JM At last he is ready to be assigned— but the assignor is not ready ff)r him — there is a long line of students ahead of him. So he works out his own assignment with fear and trembling, lest the classes be closed ere he gets it checked. In his turn he goes before the assigner and presents the schedule that he has made. The assigner critically scans his punch-card and finds that four or five grades have not been recorded. So the student hunts all over the campus in search of the lost grades. This usually takes about a day. By the time this matter is straightened, the classes he wishes to get into are full. He is given the best assignment possible, has it checked, and is per- mitted to leave by the north door. He finds that he has six first hours and not an afternoon off, but — he thanks goodness he is registered and assigned. 53 u yD e TC Chapel is generally defined as a period of one-half hour kindly provided by the Administration for pleasure and recreation. The time is usually spent in campus strolls, or in trips down to Aggieville for eats. In the springtime, Lovers ' Lane is in high favor with couples, but in the winter it is said that the Aluseum is the last resort for the worst cases. Occasionally, seemingly by inistake, some ypoyo yOe yD e of the students wander into the Auditorium where a few of the Faculty are assembled to hear words of wisdom from celebrated speakers. The most of the students, however, seldom attend the chapel exercises unless there is to be something exciting. If it is rumored that the Juniors are going to take the Senior section, the students arrive in a body to see the fight. If a clever farce is to be put on, featuring students in faculty roles, again, the students attend in large numbers. But as for the regular chapel programs— whv, really — we would rather go strolling. 55 ■■7 yOi yD e VC Freshmam Caps The art of wearing Freshman caps was introduced by the present Senior class. With their unexcelled wisdom, they saw the the desirability and the fitness of being so adorned, and of their own free will, purchased and wore the caps. The ' 17 class was, as usual, rather backward, and failed to follow the noble example set them. The ' 18 class, however, revived the custom and in the spring of ' 15, little purple caps were seen everywhere on the greene of the campus. y oyo yOi yD e 1 So It is that the wearing of Freshman caps is an established cus- tom at the College. When the Freshmen arrive, they are informed with great politeness that it is desired they purchase and wear Freshman caps. Alack— some of the Freshmen object, and thereby hangs— a paddle. The upper classmen formulate a set of rule ' s requiring the Freshmen to wear the caps on Tuesdays and Thurs- days; also on the days when athletic games are played on the home field. In order to assist the Freshman laddies ' memories, the paddle is brought into play. Occasionally it is necessary to toss some of the more stubborn in a blanket, but paddling suffices to make most of them see reason. Say! They are paddling the capless Freshies down in Aggieville. Got your paddle. ' ' Come on! ' vD e W First Annual Home Coming Day If there was ever any doubt in the minds of the students as to the loyalty of the Old Grads to K. S. A. C, it was banished last fall when the Alumni came in from all parts of the country, in response to an invitation to come and help celebrate the First Annual Home- Coming Day. A football game is always a drawing card, and a football game with K. U. is the biggest drawing card for former Kansas Aggies that we have to offer at K. S. A. C. Xever is there a time when the Aggies feel so closely united as when K. U. invades their camp, and never is there a time when we are so glad to see the Old Grads. back, for they always bring the pep. Hence, Saturday, October 23, the date of the K. U.-Aggie game, was chosen last fall as the First Annual Home-Coming Day. y oya y: u yD e ■ [i ' V m mkm. ■1 _ An S. O. S. call was sent broadcast over the land beseeching the aid of every former Aggie to come and help us Beat K. U. A special invitation was sent to all men who had ever played on an Aggie team to come early in order to be present at the big pep meeting on Friday evening preceding the game, at which time the _official_ athletic K was presented to each man who had never received his emblem. That was some pep meeting, believe me, was the way Coach Bender put it. The Auditorium was filled to the doors, the band was there; so were Mike Ahearn and Stub Broddle, and never was there such a meeting in the history of the College. After 2,500 people had nearly exhausted themselves from yelling, Professor Dickens came on the stage, followed by a number of the Old Warriors that had helped to put K. S. A. C. ' on the map in athletics. As each one received his letter he gave a few words of encouragement to the team. 71 59 yOiz yo e The day of the game dawned bright and fair, and visitors literally swarmed into town. The K. U. rooters, accompanied by their band, came on a special train. They were met at the station by the Aggie band and over a thousand students, and all marched to the campus to the music of the two bands. The afternoon brought greater crowds, and by 2 o ' clock, five thousand people were banked around the field. The bands in decorated sections, the profuse display of the colors of both schools, and the great array of rooters made a perfect setting for the game. As the Aggies came on the field to the tume of Aggie Loyalty, every Aggie was on his feet and everyone felt something unusual was going to happen. The game started off like a whirlwind. The K. U. bunch was completely surprised by the wonderful attacks of the Wildcats. The first half of the game was plainly an Aggie 60 yQoyo yOe yD e victory, and when Randels tore through the Jayhawker line, and ran eighty-five yards for a touchdown, joy was supreme in the Aggie camp. Late in the third quarter K. U. scored a touchdown but failed to kick goal, leaving the score 6 to 7 in the Aggies ' favor at the end of the third quarter. Although K. U. was able to pile up nineteen points in the fourth quarter and win the game, the score doesn ' t tell the story. It was one of the greatest games ever played between the two schools. The fight displayed by our team showed that all they lacked was size to be champions. Verily, John Bender has started something at K. S. A. C, and he will have a FOOTBALL team next year. The Second Home-Coming Day will be held next year on the date of the M.LL-Aggie game. All Old Grads are invited now, and a record-breaking crowd is expected. 70( y3 a To Wouldn ' t you like to go to College if you didn ' t have to study? One Senior girl remarked that that was her idea of Heaven — College life with all its fun and frolic, but without the everlasting feeling she had to study and get ready for Exams. 62 y oyo yOe y3 e But her Heaven is not here, and the Exams we have always with us. _ It is rumored that by studying hard all term, students may receive Exemptions from their Finals. We, however, have never experimented and still continue to burn the midnight oil during Final Week. Not that it does any good to study— the Prof, will be sure to ask something you do not know, anyhow. Studying is a mere formality to ease the conscience, so that when you receive your yellow flunk slip you can say: It was all the Prof ' s fault; I did my part. I studied. For the good of the underclassmen, lest they be led astray by our words of wisdom, we give the following warning: And so he never studied or stayed up late to cram. Or got the blues, or worried — but he flunked in his Exam. y vD e 6 Politics — the word savors of intrigue and cunning. It brings pictures of stuffed ballot boxes and sly mismanagement of money. Yet it is the interesting game of politics that controls College affairs at K. S. A. C. Did you think when you were voting for Class President, or member of the Students ' Council that you were doing the selecting? Well, Sonny! You weren ' t. It was all decided long before you cast your little vote. Politics decided it. 64 =- ypoyo y)e yD e Politics is a game played by those who are interested in the management of affairs. If everyone became interested in these affairs, the word politics with its present meaning, would become obsolete. But the affairs of the college are of vital concern to few, hence politics is still a stock word. Truly this game is an inter- esting pastime. If you win, sweet is the victory; if you lose, bitter is the defeat; yet there are those who love to plav this game of politics. ye I Dr. MacArtbvr Debate Anything the matter with the Auditorium? you ask. Oh, no. That ' s just the debaters warming up for the coming contests. They have the Auditorium on certain afternoons and take turns in con- vincing the empty seats. You feel sorry for the seats . Well, it does keep the seats in a rather undecided state of mind. They just get to thinking one way when the next speaker proves conclusively that the first man ' s argument was all wrong. Then the first speaker upsets the dope again. Yes, I suppose the seats do get rather wear}- — but it is good training for the boys and eirls. y oyo yOu yo e Girl debaters? Why, yes and nothing to be horrified about, either. They maice fine debaters — they always have something to say. You thought girls were talkative enough without instruction along that line? Maybe they are. Leave this keen encounter of our wits And fall into a slower method. fm n r K% 1 i ■ j cm sM A mt 1 fm Hth hu -h 91 1 ;M K . B M fl 1 m j m fl E 9 K - fl What Debate Makes of Them 7 yOc yD e V6 Blanche and George Fmissiinig If one were to ask which of all forms of amusement receives the whole-hearted support of the students at K. S. A. C, the answer would come back — Fussing. This means of passing the time not only is in high favor with the students, but is also approved bv the faculty. The Dean of the College recently advised the bovs to select a wife while here; to get one with brains if possible, biit at any rate to select a wife. This appealed to the boys as being ex- cellent advice, and they proceeded to follow it enthusiastically. y oya yOa yo e Everywhere, on the campus, about the town, in the country, we see man and maiden strolling, apparently engrossed in each other. They are engaged in earnest conversation (presumably the boy is trying to determine the amount of the girl ' s brains). ' We will not disturb them. They are Fussing. Hi i e T6 nA- The Mav Fete The day set for the crowning of the Queen of the May dawned bright and clear. Everything was propitious. The sun was brighter, the air was clearer, the sky was bluer than ever before. Even the campus was changed. Workmen were busily engaged in erecting grandstands to seat the immense crowd which would witness the event. Groups of students were arranging for their various stunts. Lnder the group of trees on the lower campus, the great white throne was being constructed. At chapel hour, knots of students were to be seen loitering near the scene of all these interesting activities. The wise words of even the most learned of dignitaries could not lure them into the Audi- torium. They were determined not to miss a single one of the little incidents that constantly occur in the preparations for such an important event. 70 y oya yO( Y: As the day passed, everything assumed a gala appearance. Pink and white blossoms adorned the throne. Great yellow and golden butterflies fluttered on one of the booths. Another proudly flaunted streamers of the college colors. Bright ribbons waved in the rapidly filling grandstand. At the appointed hour, the trumpets sounded, the college or- chestra began the strains of Processional from The Queen of Sheba by Gounod, and the long procession came into view. The pageant was led by one hundred and fifty hoop-bearers, dressed in robes of blue, green, pink and yellow. Long streamers fluttered -. - ' 71 i .. u ' ( vD e V6 from their hoops, which were wound in colors corresponding to the robes. As the hoop-bearers neared the throne they halted, and stepping back, formed an aisle for the entrance of the royal party. Groups of children came first, strewing roses in the pathway of the Queen. They were followed by the crown-bearer who carried the crown of pink rosebuds and mignonette on a satin cushion. The Queen, whose blonde beauty was enhanced by her lovely gown of white, walked in, followed by her trainbearers and attendants. After the entrance and crowning of the Queen, fifteen girls dressed in flowing white robes sang a song of welcome, and a response was y Oyo yO( yD e sung by one of the attendants to the Queen. The girls then danced before their Sovereign Lady and the four Maypoles were wound with the college colors. The May Fete has become one of the most enjoyable customs of our college. It has developed from a very simple affair to an elaborate pageant in which a large number of the college students take prominent parts, and to which people come from far and near. There is probably no event of the college year that is more appre- ciated by the College people and their guests, and it deservedly holds an important place in the Spring Calendar of our College Year. 73 ' yo e 76 Sixttln Ameuiiai!

W - - The Ee§peclti®m Distinguished institution is an lionor that the miUtary de- partment of every land-grant college in the United States strives with might and main to secure. This honor is conferred annually upon the ten colleges having the best trained cadet corps. High ranking officers from the regular army make a tour of inspection each year and put the cadets through all the difficult maneuvers known in military tactics. By their splendid work in drilling and the good condition of their equipment, the boys secured Distinguished Institution for K. S. A. C. for the first time in 1914, and as might be expected, the officers in the spring of 1915 made great preparation for the inspec- tion, which took place May 10th and 11th. ttfiU ' O 76 ypoya yOe yD e Major Andrew Moses of the General Staff, Washington, D.C., assisted by Captain Oden of Fort Leavenworth, made the inspection last spring and was so well pleased with the showing made by ou ■ rookies that the coveted honor was again awarded to our school If this honor is won three years in succession by any college, the Military Department is given additional equipment by the Gov- ernment. From the present condition of affairs, we feel safe in predicting a third successive victory this year. On Jvlonday evening, the first day of the inspection last year, a reception-dance was given by the cadets in the Nichols Gymnasium in honor of Major Moses. This was conceded by all to be the most beautiful reception of its kind ever given at this College. The cadets in their full dress uniforms, the visiting men in evening dress, and last, but not least, the Aggie girls in their best costumes, made a sight long to be remembered. o yOu ys e T6 It is June. The wind tliat rustles tlie leaves in Lovers ' Lane murmurs it, and the bees that croon over the campus clover hum, June, June. The staid Senior in cap and gown also realizes that it is June — Commencement time in June, and his heart is half sorrowful, half glad within him. The Campus stretches out before him in all its glory; it seems to him that it was never so beautiful before. He thinks of the campus strolls, of the College buildings by moonlight, and a thousand happy memories come crowding to his mind. For four years the joy and the work of College Life have 78 ypoyo yy€ p e ' 6 been his. Now he is a Senior, and this is his graduating day. The past fades away and the future confronts him. He sees the ' world ' s work and is glad, for surely as a College graduate, with all the high ideals of youth, he will be able to do his share. It is his graduating day; the line forms for the last march; with his classmates he goes with stately tread to the Auditorium. There, before his admirin,g family and friends, he receives his diploma, wjiich shuts him forever from undergraduate affairs and makes him an Alumnus of K. S. A.

While we would refuse to brag, there are so many distinguishing marks which point out this class that they must be related. For history is history, and if the members are inherently wonderful, they must not refuse to admit it. This class was organized in the fall of 1912, with George Schneider as temporary chairman. Of course a constitution was necessary, and here the class was fortunate indeed, for it had as members some parliamentary geniuses, in the persons of Jay Stratton, Ralph St. John and Florence Justin. In a short time the finished constitution was reported to the class and was adopted, after much heated discussion. Mr. Schneider was elected president, and the class was well launched on its journey through College. The next thing necessary was to get acquainted, so a committee was appointed to plan the first class party. This was held on the eighth of November, and though it cannot be said that it was the most enjoyable party ever attended, for Freshman parties never are, it did start, in the class, a feeling of fellowship and unity. The remainder of the year was a busy one. The members of this ever-industrious class began Immediately to be leaders. A remarkable amount of interest was shown in athletics. Though in football they did not excel, this defect was made up for in basketball and baseball, where the Freshman easily won the championships for class athletics. The basketball team was especially good, and included tliree of the later Varsity stars, Adams, Leonard, and Ramsey. At the beginning of the winter term, 1913, the woman suffrage rule started, and, we are glad to say, the girls have ever since remained as prominent workers in the class. Mary Poison was elected to the presiden-cy for the winter term and V ' erda Harris was chosen for the same office at the spring term election. Shortly after the beginning of the winter term, a movement was started which gave the Class of 1916 a permanent place as the leading class on the Hill — the one with the most class enthusiasm and pride. This movement was the voluntary adoption of Freshman caps, to be a mark of distinction for this body. For a long time the upper classmen had been attempting to force upon the Freshmen the wearing of class caps, but this President Waters would not allow. This class would not have sub- mitted to force, either, but when approached with calm reasoning, the hats were soon adopted. And so the Class of 1916, of its own volition, adopted this mark of distinction. The members of the class and of the faculty now admit that this act did more to cement the friendly feeling, to make this class act as a unit, than did any other one thing that the class has ever done. The class began its Sophomore year with increased numbers and with greater enthusiasm. After a close election, R. P. Ramsey was chosen president for the fall term. It was during this term that a change came in the nature of the organization. A new element, consisting of people who had heretofore taken little interest in the affairs of the class, began taking an active interest. This was an excellent move, for it brought a greater interest and a better understanding among the different factions of the class. Larger attendance at class meetings resulted, and finally the new element became strong enough to pull the class offices. For the winter term. P. H. Wheeler was given the reins of class leadership. In this term came another chance for the T6s to show the sort of material of which they were made. The question of a class dance was engrossing the minds of all the classes on the Hill. Along with the dance question came also the permission for the use of the college gymnasium as the place in which to hold the function. The two things together, permission for class dances and for the use of the college gymnasium as a place for dances, seemed to the faculty an enormous concession to make to the students at one time. 162 ypoya yOif vD e The Senior class wanted to be the first to give a dance, and they insisted on the use of the gymnasium. But the sly Sophomores, recognizing the problem the faculty was facing, asked simply for permission to dance. This was granted, and they danced, the first class in the history of the College to hold a class dance. What did they care if they must dance in .A.ggieville Hall? They had once more led all the classes in spirit, and they were happy. Preston Hale was elected spring term president, and the business of the Class of 1916 ran smoothly to the close of its second year. Junior year is, of course, an important one. Mr. VV. C. Calvert was made the class executive for fall term. He made such a good president that he seemed to be the very person for manager of the 1916 Royal Purple, and he was granted that place. Much time was spent in the business of arranging committee finances for the class this year. It was during this term that the finances of the class were put on a firm basis, with an up-to-date card index system, which made it easy to tell those in good standing with the treasurer. For the winter term. Jay Stratton was made class president. The important business now was the selection of committees for the Junior-Senior party. George Ferrier was made chairman of the afliair, and he made an excellent selection of a committee. Here was another chance for the ' 16 class to establish a precedent. For years the Junior-Senior party had been in the form of a banquet. This was never a very enjoyable affair: however, no other Juniors had ever considered changing it. The Class of ' 16, with its characteristic good judgment, saw that a change should be made in the mode of entertainment. A request was made to the autlior- ities for a Junior-Senior Prom. The argument offered by the committee for this request was so force- fully put that permission was finally granted by the faculty for the first Junior-Senior Prom ever given at K. S. A. C. Nearly everyone present was willing to testify that this was the most enjoyable Junior- Senior party that had been held at K. S. A. C. for many years. And, of course it would be, for the en- tertainers were the Juniors of the ' 16 Class. The Prom was held May 14, during the administration of J. S. Garlough, who had been made our Shepherd by the election at the beginning of the spring term. It was very appropriate that he should be chosen as the guard of the Shepherd ' s Crook for the year 1915-16. After three years of active life in their college career, it was not to be expected that the ' 16s would lag in the fourth and last lap. From the first day in the fall term to the time this was written, the class has been full of pep and has made history that will stand as a monument to its memory in the years to come. Never was there a class with more harmony of opinion and action, and never has a class put forth a stronger effort in the cause of its Alma Mater. George Ferrier was elected fall term presi dent, Wilma Burtis the leader for the winter term, and T. K. Vincent for the spring term. Each has made an excellent president, handling the class affairs with ease and assurance. During this year the Seniors have been recognized as the leaders of College sentiment. Where they led, the others followed. It is their most sincere wish that their example has been a worthy one for later classes to follow. It would not be fitting to close without a few words concerning athletics. In class athletics the ' 16s have always shown an acrive interest. This is not only true of the boys, but also of the girls, who have maintained an excellent girls ' basketball team. In the year 1915 the ' 16 team was the class champion in girls ' athletics. The passing of the ' 16 class takes from the college athletic teams some of their most valuable men. On the roll of the 1916 Class are found the names of the following K men: ShuU, Gunning, Denman, Cromer, Baird, Moore, Skinner, Hartwig, Bayer, Jones, Adams, Ramsey, Mcllrath, Leonard, Hodgson, Ferrier, Vandenberg, Frizzell, Welsh, Lovett, McGilliard and McGalliard. And now it is with a feeling of deepest regret that this class is preparing to leave its . lma Mater, to become a small part of the great body of alumni which looks to K. S. A. C. as its lifelong source of inspiration. But the Class of 1916 will never become scattered, for it has formed a permanent or- ganization, with Harold M. McClellan as life president, John L. Garlough as vice-president, and Price H. Wheeler as secretary-treasurer. May the spirit of comradship and good fellowship gained here remain forever with the members of the Class of 1916. 163 a y u yD e ' 6 icerg Fall Term Winter Term ' Spring Term G. C.

IHE members of the Class of ' 18 continue to display the ambitious and energetic spirit with which they entered college in 1914. As Sophomores they are taking a verj ' active part in college activities. The Sophomore football team was undefeated during the fall of 1915. The girls ' basketball team was awarded the Askren prize trophy for the year 1916-17. The most significant project undertaken by this class is the erection of a cement 4 K on Prospect Heights. This is to stand as the class memorial. It is planned to have it erected 4 during the spring of 1916 so that the members of the class as well as those in later classes may be bene- I fited. Two social functions have been enjoyed by the class during this year. In the fall a large repre- i sentative body hiked to Wildcat. During the latter part of the winter term the first class dance was given. Entertainment was planned which was congenial for all of the members. The latter part J of the evening was spent in dancing by those who cared to do so. 5 In their earnest desire to promote college and class activities, the Sophomores are not idlers when it comes to classroom work. The honors among these students run high. We hope that when 5 graduation time comes our number will not have decreased appreciably from the three hundred ninety 5 strong members which make up the present roll. ypoya yOi yD e g§ Fall Term, 1915 William H.

Co orj— Dark Blue and Red. jN September twenty-third, nineteen fifteen, there met for the first time the present Class of 1919 in A-74, and we immediately set to work to gain the good-will of both the instructors and our fellow-students by adopting the following as the object of our class: To lead all classes in enthusiasm and hard work. We have already shown our pep by taking an active part in the activities of the college, in football, basketball and track. Judging from the showing made by our football, basketball and track teams, we may expect our class to come out with a baseball team and make it four straight. In football the Freshman team, captained by Johnny Clark, made an excellent showing against the Varsity, and we have no doubt that several of the faces seen in the Freshman squad now, will be over in the Varsity when the next Royal Purple is printed. The basketball team under Slim Fullington as captain, has demonstrated to the whole college that the Freshmen have caught the fighting spirit of the Aggies, and there is no doubt that several of this year ' s Freshmen will make their K ' s next year. In track the Freshmen have shown up well, and Collier, the speedy sprinter, will no doubt win much honor for himself, his class and his college. Social events so far have been two in number. Last fall we hiked to Wildcat. The memory of that event will always remain in our minds. In the winter term we had a mixer and dance in Nichols ' Gymnasium. Everyone who was present will testify that they spent an enjoyable evening and a few upper classmen will testify that they, at least, had an interesting time. So, as we look back over the events that have taken place in the short time that we have been here, we feel confident that we have a bright future before us. When we are out of college we may look back and say with the other students of K. S. A. C. The Class of Nineteen, the Class that lived up to their object — ' To lead all classes in enthusiasm and hard work. ' 208 ypoya yO( ' p.

Hamilton yOu vD e Tc Sclic!)©! of AgricelttuiiFe S a department of the College, the School of Agriculture fills a unique P ' A place. Its name may be somewhat misleading to those who do not El aa define terms with care, for, to such the term School of Agriculture ma be confused with that of the degree course given by the college. It is in fact a sub-collegiate school, a continuation school for those graduates of the eighth grade in rural and city schools, who do not wish to prepare for college, but who do wish a vocational course leading toward better efficiency in the trades, in the home, and on the farm. We are proud of the real service that it renders our state, for it brings to us a large number of young men and women beyond high-school age who need special training and who appreciate the opportunities here afforded. It frequently hap- pens that these students, by coming in contact with the advantages of our great College, have their dormant ambitions awakened and desire to enter College. The student activities include three literary societies, a football team, two basketball teams, three organizations, and a whole school organization, all helpful in developing leadership among the members. The school is completing its third year of existence. It has an enrollment of more than five hundred each year, and is this year graduating its second class. 214 ypoya yyi yD e Class Colors — Black and Gold. Ellen O.

This eliminated students in the School of Agriculture. On October 27, 1913, twenty-seven young men organized the Lincoln Literary Society. They stated as their aim, The improvement ' of all concerned in debating, social development and literary culture. _ All men students in the School of Agriculture are invited to visit the society, and if interested, to join.

The work is not intended to take the place of the pro- fessional courses but is designed to meet the needs of young men who wish to gain a practical, working knowledge of general repair shop practice, blacksmithing, carpentry, concrete construction, road building and other kindred subjects. The new courses are bringing gratifying results and are gaining in popularity. 226 ypoy(7 yO( yD e J3B=aBK Class E®11 M. L. Almgrem J. C. Bahnmaier G. O. Beeler C. H. Blosser R. H. Brown J.

Cap is a native of Manhattan II 241 ' CAP SKINNF.R, End Ot zp e V6 RAXDELS, End The honor of being the first Aggie to cross the [avhawker goal line in three vears belongs to ' ■Stiff Randels. Stiff dodged and stiff- armed his way through the entire Kansas eleven in his sensational SO-yard sprint across the chalk-lines. Anthony, Kansas, is proud to be his home. BAYER, TackU A Wildcat athlete who fought his way into the Aggie athletic hall of fame is Hennery Bayer, the steady left tackle of the Bender eleven. Bayer ' s ability to stop opponents ' plays before they had fairly begun made him a great favorite with the rooters. He calls Toronto, Kansas, his home. BARNES, Halfback The never-say-die spirit of Bert Barnes won for him the captaincy of the 1916 Wildcat eleven-. Barnes was a strong cog in Coach Bender ' s secondary defensive and was a con- sistent gainer when given the ball. He has the ideal football build. He is a general favorite in his home town, Bellaire, Kansas. HARTWIG, Fullback No Wildcat player played a more aggressive game than did Swede Hartwig, the fighting fullback. His team-mates showed their appre- ciation by voting him the most valuable man on the team. As a reward he was presented with a beautiful silver loving-cup. He is a favorite son of Goodland, Kansas. ypoya yOt y3 e c DODRILL, Tackle The heavyweight of the Aggie squad was Tiny Dodrill, who alternated with Bayer at left tackle. Doddy won his letter by his tackle- swings in the contest with Bennie Owen ' s Okla- homa Sooners. Although not fast on his feet, the big tackle was a stone wall on the defense. He lives in Stockton, Kansas. SULLIVAN, Quarterback The football situation at K. S. A. C. looked rathergloomy atthestart of the 1915 season until Coach Bender succeeded in unearthing a new quarterback, Sully Sullivan. It was Sul- ly ' s headwork and ability to return punts that won many yards for the Bender eleven. He resides in Wamego, Kansas. McGALLlARD, Halfback A hard hitter and a shifty runner, Mac McGalliard has proved himself one of the best open field runners that ever donned an . ggie football suit. Coach Bender started him in almost every contest and Mac put up a whirlwind game. He hails from the city of Trov. W RIGHT, Center To Rasty Wright is given the honor of being the nucleus of the Wildcat machine. Through his accuracy in handling the ball, Rasty fitted in well with Coach Bender ' s direct-passing style of play. He was the most consistent player on the team and never was out of the game a minute. His liome town is Newton, Kansas. 243 I yo yi( yD e ' 6 MOORE, Guard Playing opposite Baird and showing the same plugging style of play was Tom Moore, a Manhattan boy, who played right guard. He was always found at the bottom of every scrim- mage, fighting fearlessly for his Alma Mater. He opened the way for many Aggie gains. PTACEK, Tackle It was Pete Ptacek who made those ten-yard gains on tackle swings in the game against the Oklahoma Sooners. Pete could get up plenty of speed and few opponents like to stop his huge bulk when it has attained its full momentum. He is an Emporia product. SLATTERY, End Taking the place of Captain Skinner, when in- juries forced the Aggie leader out of the game. Slats Slattery played an important part in holding the Missouri Tigers to a to tie. He was speedy and aggressive and used his head to good advantage. Jewell City is his home. BAIRD, Guard One position that entered into Coach Bender ' s many worries was left guard, which was held down by Dad Baird, an all-around athlete of Formosa. Baird was not the spectacular kind of player but always played a steady game that made him a favorite with the . Xggie rooters. 244 ypoya yO( yD e ' 6 (JLRER, Halfback Although only a second-string man on the Bender eleven this year, Oliver demonstrated enough football ability to place himself in line for a regular job next year. He hits hard and low wiien carrying the ball and is adept at running interference. He calls Howard his home. ALEXANDER, Quarterback Another substitute that developed experience to use in the 1916 Wildcat campaign was Alex Alexander who played quarterback in the ab- sence of Sullivan. Alex has weight, fight and speed and with experience should develop into a future Aggie star. He resides in Council Grove. WILDER, Halfback The speed demon of the squad was Wilder, half- back and end. Wilder is one of the best half- milers in the Middle West and his swiftness, com- bined with an ability to dodge and use the stiff- arm, made him the ideal open-field runner. Manhattan is home, sweet home to him. HARWOOD, Fullback Coming into his own as a substitute for Swede Hartwig, Harwood showed enough class to cinch himself a place on Coach Bender ' s 1916 eleven. Harwood has the build to make any- body ' s eleven, and the experience that he has gained this year will make him a valuable man. He is an inhabitant of Norman, Nebraska. 0£ e y6 r ' , - - - -X I 111. k Mi:: iTl A i., - i IT ypoyo yOu yD) ..=« j Stubby ' Coach and Doc liii. Oklahoma (iAMi; S I i Oa yj e YC jO weld the lightest football squad that ever represented the Kansas ?ies into a winning football machine was the job that confronted the new Aggie mentor, Jawn Bender, at the start of the 1915 season. Bender analyzed the situation and decided to counterbalance the lack- of-weight handicap by sending on the football battleground a light team with instructions to fight to the finish, dubbing his lightweights the Wildcats. Pickmg only men that would come up to his combative ideal, the coach produced an A-1 Aggie eleven, one that was feared by every school in the Missouri Valley. Of the eight games payed during the season, the Bender men won three, tied one, and lost four. Southwestern, Friends, and Washburn felt the sting of defeat, while the Kansas Jayhawke rs, the Nebraska Cornhuskers, the Oklahoma Sooners, and the Emporia Normals triumphed in victory and the Missouri Tigers were held to a tie in a game in which neither side could score. Two of the Missouri ' alley contests, those with the Missouri and Kansas elevens, will occupy lasting places in Aggie athletic annals. The spectacle of the Aggie Rabbits holding the heavy Missouri Tigers to a scoreless tie will long be remembered in Columbia, Missouri. The fact that the Wildcats outplayed and outfought the Jayhawkers for three quarters, having a 7 to 6 lead over their heavy opponents at the end of that time, but finally succumbed, fighting to the last, before the attack of the everchanging Kansas backfield, will hearts of Aggie rooters. live long in the Games at Home October 3 — Aggies October 23 — Aggies November 6 — Aggies November 19 — Aggies Games Abroad October 9 — Aggies October 16 — Aggies October 30 — Aggies November 13 — Aggies SEASON ' S RESULTS Totals Aggies 9 Southwestern College 7 Kansas University 14 Friends University 7 Oklahoma University Nebraska University .

Coach Merner not only knows how to make men work for him by the force of his own personality, but also, forms friendships with the men, which is a great factor in bringing good work from them. Little Shrimp Adams played his third year at forward and was captain of the fighting ' 15- ' 16 squad. He was the Aggies ' star on the free throws. Next year ' s team will surely miss the old Adams-Reynolds machine. These men were easily the best pair of forwards in the Missouri ' allev. 252 ypoya yOi yo e V6 ju y3 e 6 The fighting spirit of the Aggies was never more forcefully exhibited than by the fighting squad of basketball players that represented the Purple and White of K. S. A. C. this season. The IMerner team scrapped their way into the top- most circles of Missouri alley basket- ball, defeating Kansas Universitv, Mis- souri L niversity, ' ashington Universitv, and Ames. The . ggies ' hard luck came on their invasion of Nebraska to play the Corn- husker quintette. Both games were lost to the Xebraskans by the narrow margin of one point. If the .Aggies had been looking for alibis they most certainly could have had one in the fact that the Nebraska court was much smaller than an - to which they were accustomed. Fighting Slim Ramsey was going at top speed from the first sound of the ref- eree ' s whistle until the final shot of the time-keeper ' s gun. He was mi.xed up in almost every play. Reynolds garnered more points than any other Aggie. He was right in every series except the Missouri contests and his worth to the team was clearly shown when the team was able to make but little progress with- out his goal-shooting. Mac McMillan played at guard with Ramsey, and played such a steady grade of basketball that the team elected him to the captaincy of the 1917 team. Wamego Leonard played the center of the floor and was 254 yOoyo yi( yD e expert at shooting long-distance goals. Mcllrath subbed for Leonard in good style, outclassing many of the tip-off men of the ' alley. ' an Trine is a small, speedy player. It is almost impossible to guard ' an when he is shooting a basket near the goal. Gunning made a name for himself in the first Missouri contest, when he entered the game at a crucial period and fitted perfectly into the Merner machine. Beez Cushman is fast on the floor and this, combined with his height, made him a constant source of worry to the opposing guards. Although the Aggies did not win the championship of the Alissouri Valley, the strength of the team was shown when Hamilton of K. U., Lowman of K. S. A. C, Brewer of Missouri, Merner of K. S. A. C, and Referee Quigley chose the foUowine as an All-Missouri ' alle) ' team: Adams, C 1 ) Aggies L. F. Reynolds Aggies R. F. Williams Missouri C. Ramsey Aggies L. G. S peel man Missouri ., R.

Men of this year ' s Fresh- man Varsity who will be fighting for places on next year ' s team are Fullington, a lengthy forward from Clay Center; High Willhoite and Clark of Manhattan, Guilfoil and Knostman of Wamego. Wells is a former Fairmount College star, while Wooster did good work for Emporia. Keeper is from Fred- erick and showed up well as a forward. These men should prove valuable material in the building up of another great basketball machine. 256 IJ ypoya yO( y: e I ' KKSHMEN InTKKi 1 A-.s C ' l Azriix — Champions Im iciu katiiKni i v I-kagl i 257 yOif e ' 6 SiiiMioNruKi-.

But Coach Carl J. Merner was not content with an almost won, so in the second meet with the Jayhawkers he pointed his athletes into wresting a 56 to 53 win from the Kansans, and that on Lawrence soil, too. The team was one of the best balanced aggregations that ever wore the Purple and White colors of the Kansas Aggies. Holroyd, Osborne, and Crum- baker in the sprints; Wilder, Weaver, and Teeter in the distance runs; Smith and Marble in the weights; Frizzell, Vandenburg and Welsh, in the hurdles; Edwards in the pole vault; Frizzell in the high jump;Wilder in the broad jump: and Osborne, Essick, Lovett, Grandfield, and Holroyd in the mile relay, formed a team that found but one equal in the Missouri Valley. In the first meet with the Kansas Jayhawkers, the result of the contest hinged on the relay. With the Aggies far in the lead in the second lap, one of the Aggie runners became confused because of the small track and, before he could recover, the lead was lost, and with it the relay and the meet. The Merner men piled up such a large score in the second engagement with K. U. that the winning of the relay by K. U. could not win the meet for the Kansans. In the Missouri Valley Conference meet the Aggies scored 21 points, taking fourth place.

With Briney as captain of the team they developed such men as Reynolds, Denman, McMillan, Frank, and Haucke, and although unable to make an exceptionally strong team the first year, they got them to working together in good shape. No one was ever more popular with the players and fans than was Coach Lowman and there was always a cheer from the grandstand when Big Briney came to bat. 266 ypoyo yyu vD e ' u 1915 Bageball Lack of material was a serious T handicap to the success of the 1915 Aggie baseball team, but even with the small amount of material available Coach Lowman had a team well above the average. Iron Man Hodgson did the major part of the pitching and was a good man to have at bat in a pinch, too. Ferrier, the other Aggie flinger, did good work for a first year man and will doubtless be one of the mainstays of the team this year. Captain-elect Frank Reynolds played his first year on the team and was a hitter and fielder of exceptional ability. Chief Haucke did most of the catching for the team. The Chief had a good peg to second and was a fair hitter, usually timing his blows when hits meant runs. Mac Mc- Millan, although a little weak with the 267 fr ' y ya yOez vD e YC stick, showed good form around first base, grabbing the wild heaves from the infielders lil e a veteran. Doc McClymonds completed his three years of service on the team and his last year was easily the most success- ful of his baseball career. He played shortstop. Stubby Broddle, the midget lead-off man for the Lowman nine, had a good year in the field but had the common failing of not being able to pound out blows at opportune times. Beany Frank alternated with McMillan at the first station and is good material for this year ' s team. Jud Denman showed plenty of fight when subbing for Briney at third base. He Is leading in the fight for that position this year. McGal- liard played utility roles during the 268 ypoyG y:)u yD e V6 season. His pinch hitting resulted in the Aggies taking many close con- tests from their opponents. Red Agnew played second base for his third consecutive year and was always there with the fighting spirit that made him popular with Aggie fans. Nick Enns, although not a phe- nomenal player, was always working and plugging with the b-est that was in him. He was consistent in the field and his batting ranked him as one uf the best players on the team. Likely material out for the Varsity this year are such men as Breckheisen, Sullivan, Hewey, Williams, McLeod, Jordan, DuBois, Newton, Grubb, Sher- wood, Scott, Griffiths, Hickok, and Harvey. The team will be greatly strengthened by the return of Dicky Richardson, a former Aggie star. 269 JP -,.-,,.

( t ' - ' DED April 24, 1875, The Kansas Industrialist, the official publica- i tir.n of the Kansas State Agricultural College, is the oldest paper pub- [ 3 lished by any Kansas college and is among the oldest papers of any sort in the State. In many respects it is unique among college papers. It contains alumni notes and is sent free to graduates of the College. For the pur- pose of giving effective publicity to College affairs, it is sent free also to Kansas newspapers. _ The material in the paper is written largely by students in i ndus- trial journalism, who help also in the mechanical work on the paper in the printing plant. The Industrialist has received high commendation from printers and publishers not only in Kansas, but in metropolitan centers. John A. Anderson, who, as president of the college, changed the institution from a classical to an industrial institution, founded The Ind tstrialist as an ex- ponent of agriculture and industrial education. The paper was published by the printing department under the direction of A. A. Stewart, a young man who had formerly been a student in the college but had given up his studies to devote all his time to the superintendency of printing. Printing had been introduced into the curriculum of the college as an in- dustrial ' Mn 1873, and when The Industrialist was started a number of students were_ taking the work. According to the catalogue, it was intended primarily for girls, but the enrollment consisted to a considerable extent of boys, though the first issue of the paper announced that two young ladies captured the printing department ' s dinner bucket and confiscated the lunch. Mr. Stewart went on to say that they returned the bucket. The paper has always been printed by the department of printing, which is the oldest teaching department of its kind existing in any American college. In this department instruction in news writing, newspaper management, and other journalistic matters was given for many years. In 1910, the Department of In- dustrial Journalism was organized and the head of the department, Charles Dillon, became managing editor of The Industrialist. The paper has since that time been edited by the Journalism Department. The President of the College, Dr. Henry Jackson Waters, is ex officio editor-in-chief. Nelson Antrim Crawford, professor of industrial journalism and superintendent of printing, is the managing editor. Dr. John Daniel Walters, senior pro fessor in the College, is local editor. Miss Ada Rice, ' 95, M.S., ' 12, assistant professor of the English language, is alumni editor. -TTZ, yO( yD e V6 NEW BOOK HowrocuffiBuNist Why X M R8iEB PfJOPER ■ !

However it is the avowed intention of the literary societies to throw debate open on equal competitive terms to all members of the undergraduate student body as soon as plans can be worked out and approved, where- by the expense shall also be shared by those who are not members of the societies. The Debating Council has adopted an ex- tensive policy whereby many people are trained, but each one debates onl} once in a vear, rather than the intensive policy, so common at other schools, whereby a few re- ceive an excess of training and debate several times each year. Of course, following this policy, the Aggies cannot expect to win a majority of their debates, but the Council Dr. Macarthur feels that the value of the training given to the larger number of students under this policy is infinitely greater than the value of a record of unbroken victory if that record be made by one or two teams debating again and again. The Council believes that the student body, knowing this, will support their teams just as enthusiastically and will realize that a victory under these conditions will mean much more than it would if debating were conducted in the ordinary wa . This is the first year to witness the complete expansion of this extensive policy with the follovving results: K. S. A. C has had twenty-four men and twenty-four women on her debating squads and eighteen men and eighteen women have taken part on the platform in intercol- . legiate debates. This is the largest squad maintained at any college in the United States. Ten of the fourteen debates have already taken place and K. S. A. C. has won two of them. Of the twelve teams, only three have had more than one member who had ever participated in debate before. Next year there will be a much larger number of veterans and the outlook is correspondingly better. For the past three years a scholarship of one hundred dollars has been awarded to the per- son who has done the best debating work in the preceding year. This was awarded to W. A. Sumner T4, in 1913-14, to Joseph B. Sweet ' 17, in 1914-15, and to Jay L. Lush ' 16, in 1915-16. For next year two scholarships, one for women and one for men, have been estab- lished, thus completing that separation be- tween men ' s and women ' s debating which is a part of the new policy.

C, and the one for which all real live and ambitious students strive, is a place on the stock judging team that represents K. S. A. C. at the American Royal and International Live Stock Shows held at Kansas City and Chicago each year. Only Seniors are eligible and a place on the team means a reward for efficient work in stock judging during the entire course of four years. It means that the members of the team have ranked high in the other work of the course, for a member of the stock judging team must maintain a high standard in all other work to maintain a place on the team. It also means that these men have strong personalities, as the success of the team depends in no small degree upon the ability of the members to impress the judges who are practical men with what they may have to say to justify the placings they have made. Teams from ten to fifteen of the leading agricultural colleges and universities of the United States and Canada compete at the International each year. Kansas teams have won their share of the honors in these contests. The team that rep- resented K. S. A. C. at the fall shows in 1915 was a credit to the College and to the state. 298 ypoyo yOu vD e Juidgiiig T J. R. Mason H. R. Sumner J. J. Bayles Prof. S. C. Salmon, Coach J. V ' .

The primary purpose of the organizarion of this club was to petition for a charter to the national sorority of Theta Sigma Phi and install a chapter here. Theta Sigma Phi is an honorary sorority of journalism women. It has ten chap- ters at present. The petition of the Women ' s Press Club is well under way and there is no doubt the chapter will be installed here soon, as the preliminary trans- actions have already been approved of by the national organizer. 319 y- yc )Cii id Tot ioK— Adams, Moat.

This committee attends to the business management, and secures the talent for the course. Quantity is always sacrificed for quality in the course and the best talent of the Lyceum and Musical Bureaus is collected to form one of the strongest Lyceum courses in Kansas. The course for the season of 1915-1916 consisted of eight numbers, repre- senting a total cost of over twenty-five hundred dollars. In addition to the regular course the committee secured the Coburn Players who during the spring term gave a matinee and evening performance . OFFICERS Chas Zimmerman Ruth Adams Secretary H. R.

The Scarabs, cream of the College, are entertaining with their an nual Initiation Dance. Needless to say, the affair is painfully exclusive. Finally intermission arrives, the time when these worthy representatives of our aristocracy must needs refresh themselves. They all depart for the College Inn. Scene Two Soon the party starts on the return to the dance, which is in Elks Hall. Hark! What is the sound that reaches the ear.? Music, without a doubt! But from whence.? Ah, the Woodman Hall, to be sure! Scornful references to Crumb dance, Public Dance, Roughneck dance, etc., are heard issuing from the perfect lips of these passing social lights, who draw their robes of exclusiveness a little more closely about them and hurry past this place of doubtful reputation. Scene Three But not all! Four members of this party are slightly more venturesome than the others. They pause, listen to the beautiful strains of melody issuing from that famous Woodman Hall piano, and are lost. Come on, let ' s go up and look in, suggests fay. Oh, yes; that would be great, chorus the girls. Well, if you think no one will see us go, agrees Price. So, after a glance around, ascertaining that no one is watching, they dodge into the stairwav, and are gone. Scene Four The royal four walk grandly down the passageway to the door of the dance hall. But suddenly a huge bulk of a woman, fierce and determined, blocks their path. Ignoring her, our heroines peek through the open space at the assembled crowd, and pass some joke about those they see inside. But suddenly, Halt! comes from the doorkeeper. The four blink, then look interested. You can ' t come in here, she announces, fire in her eyes. Why? ask our friends, becoming somewhat astounded. Do you know the password. ' she asks, closing the door. Password!! (Chorus). Now you listen to me, young people. We ' re not goin ' to have jist anybody comin ' in here. This is no public dance! ' ' ' ' (Quick Curtain.) Behind the Scenes Ja Looks admiringly toward the closed door and vows he ' ll make a dale with that woman some day. She ' s interesting. Price — Faints dead away.

In sooth, this true affection Is so very broad and strong, I think of him with r apture And sing a bit of song. The reason for this feeling Is very plain to see. He gave one E at Finals And that one was to me. Dear Kiddies: I think it ' s nice to be young, don ' t you? There are so many things to see and so many people to see me. They all say, Isn ' t she a darling, Such big black eyes or Such a bright child; so observing, you know. I don ' t know what they mean but I guess they are right. Lovingly, WiLMA BuRTIS. « ' ' ' 441 yOu yo e TC A Series oj One-Minute Interviews :vith Prominent Faculty Members. Question: Do you consider the days spent in college the ideal time for the selectionlof a life partner? Cortelyou: By all means! I believe in co-educational institutions, largely for that reason. I met my wife in college, and I advise other young men to do likewise. Miss Fecht: Not guilty! I know nothing about these things, so how could I give an opinion. ' I have nothing against it, how- ever. Nahours: Teachers or students. ' ' Why don ' t you ask .someone who has tried — I mean succeeded? I think that coming to me with this question is much the same as asking stu- dents why they fail. Hughes: I have never tried, so I don ' t know. I had my wife chosen before I started to college. If you choose her early in life and can bring her up in the way she should go, it is much to be preferred, for she will not have gone to college and learned to deceive you as college girls do. (Mr. Hughes then kindly drew a curve showing how the chances are much more plentiful early in life, and dropped considerably after graduation. He also demonstrated how the curve drops to nothing if the matrimonial aspirant becomes a school teacher.) As to correct age, any time you can get the man to say the proper thing is the proper age. Price: The answer is, Mrs. Price and I belonged to the same class. Miss Dunton: I am afraid I can ' t give you any information. What are you up to, anyway? Jackley: Er — ahem — why — I should say — that — perhaps — in the majority of cases the college would be the ideal place. The student is changing his standards and ideals, and wants someone to equal those ideals. In some cases it might not be so good, but as a rule I should say that the college is the place. Reisner: Yes, I should say that by all means the man who chooses his wife at college stands a very fine chance of getting a fine wife. I am strongly in favor of it. 442 yPoyo yOa vD ■■■T! Macarihur: Well, you see, if I should say that it was, people would wonder why I didn ' t. Porter: I don ' t know how those things work out generally, but they didn ' t in my case. On the whole, students had better wait till they get a job. But choose whenever the lightning strikes, not at any particular time. Davis: No, ma ' am, there is no ideal time. The time for such things is not ideal, but opportune. If I had done anything like that I would have been a bigamist seven or eight times over. I will add, that marriage should begin in indiscretion and end in woe, and it always does. Ahearn: I think it is the best time, that college is the best place on earth, and that Lovers ' Lane is the ideal place. Furthermore, get a D. S. girl if you can, and best of all, a red-haired one. If you want the sum total of niy views. I think that every man and woman should get married, whether they like it or not. lies: Yes, it ' s all right. But a man shouldn ' t let that selection interfere with his choice of a career and pick out one before he is able to hold a good job. Emerson: My life partner.? You mean me.? Oh, as to students, I con- sider the college field a very good field. Not Harvard, however, for it is not a co-educational college. On the other hand, though, I think the student is mature enough. Fitz: Well, I didn ' t, although some of them thought I was going to. Miss Rice: I think it is, if you are going to select one. Your chances are much better and for making the glue stick. I know from long observation, not from experience. Winshi-p: I fancy that this is a subject that students consider most in college life. Since it is so universal and common, I see no reason why it should not be proper. College is a good place. Of course it depends on the student and his ambition. Some attend col- lege when they are not mature enough to de- cide their life work, hence they are not mature enough to select a life partner. Yet the choice of a life partner might help the selection of this work. y, y wf yOv yo e ' 6 = - ypoya yyv yD t ii 445 A member of the Senior class, after exhibiting much interest in music all through his college career, was found to have written the following application: President X College, Cornburg, la. Dear Sir: I understand that you want an organist and music teacher, either man or woman. Having been both for several years, I beg to offer my services. H,-llo Kids: See my new skirt! Mamma just got it from the dressmaker ' s. Isn ' t it nice and long? I ' m grown up now. I would have been last winter but Mamma wouldn ' t let me have long skirts. ' ell, I must go to school now, so Good bye, Ruth Hutchings. Dear Litlle Friends: I wanted to write to you and send this picture so you could see that I look like a soldier man. Papa says maybe I can be a big soldier some day and fight Indians. I wouldn ' t be afraid of them, all right, for I would cut ' em with my sword. I must stop now and go to play soldier with the kids across the alley. Good bye, Irl Fleming. 446 y oya yO( yD e The Ides of AIarch Lambs ' t Dear People: My! but this is a big world. I guess maybe there ' s scads of things I don ' t know yet. Just now Daddy came out here with a little black box and said, Be still, son, while I shoot you. You just bet I was scared. I don ' t know what he did to me. I hope it won ' t keep me from growing up quick, ' cause I don ' t like ruffled white waists. I want a collar and tie like Daddy wears. Hopefully yours, Harlan Randolph Sumner.

This picture is me in my new white dress. I have a cookie in my hand to keep me from being scared at the picture taker I had a fight yesterday and Mamma said she thought I would be a football player some day. This is all I can think of now. Good bye, Emmet Skinner. Dear Boys and Girls: I didn ' t want to have my picture taken, but -Mamma said I must. So they fixed my hair (it ' s naturally curly, you know), and put on my new dress (with braid on it). Then the picture man said My, hasn ' t she got pretty coloring. Look here, little girl, and I looked, and that was all. Good bye, Ruth Adams. 449 7 yOe yD e ' 6 A little pink rose was skinny Nettie As she carefully plied her way ' Twixt the pebbles and the boulders Where the Wildcat ran at play. Ah! quoth Nettie, smiling brightly, Best of all, I love to wade, And she pulled her wide-brimmed Panama 0 cr her nose to give her shade. Then she stepped across so lightly. Holding fast unto her hat. ' Til she slipped upon a horrid rock Then into the stream she sat. Quick she rose — a dripping maiden, To the Primpy Place she hied Where, by God ' s own sunshine. Her petticoat was dried. Suffragettes D.-ar Little Friends: I am very happy today. Do you know why. ' I will tell you. It is because Mamma just put my name on the Cradle Roll at Sunday School. When I get big enough I will go every Sunday. Maybe I will see some of you there.

Hello Folks: They made me sit up here and have my pic- ture taken. They said ' twas ' cause I had a new dress.

These mer- chants have contributed their support with the sincere belief that the students would be just in recognizing and showing their appreciadon of it. The fact that more of the local firms are not herein represented makes more conspicuous those who are. As worthy of notice are the out-of-town ad- vertisers who have shown their confidence in the student body. Most of them are located where it is possible for students traveling to and from Manhattan to stop and visit them. Do so and tell them that their support is appreciated.

The Greatest CXitfitters to K. S. A. C Men STANOLIND GAS ENGINE TRACTOR OIL Proper lubrication is the big thing in tractor maintenance. Your tractor is only as good as the lubrication you use. Stanolind Gas Engine Tractor Oil, especially designed to meet conditions where kerosene or distillate is used as fuel, fur- nishes the correct lubricating body for cylinders and external bearings of tractors and stationary gas engines. It will withstand high temperature without material change. Its use will eliminate the common complaint of scored cylinders and undue wear of frictional parts, which is mainly due to the fact that operators of tractors oftentimes use too light bodied oils, or oils not suitable for this particular service. It is equally serviceable for lubricating the bearings of all classes and types of harvester machinery. POLARINE With automobiles as well as tractors it is the oil that counts. Inferior lubrication means extravagance in gasoline and a shorter life to your car. Polarine affords better lubrication and is more dependable under extreme working conditions than any other oil. It flows at zero and maintains the correct lubricating body at any motor speed or temperature. STANDARD OIL CO. (IND.) CHICAGO, U. S. A. KODAK LIFE ' S HAPPIEST DAYS Are those spen t at College.

He rushed on me with vigor, And I told him to be still. But he heeded not my warning — This bold, bad wind of the North. He clasped me in his strong embrace And swayed me back and forth. I broke away in anger And up the walk did race; Yet, nevertheless, I rather liked That North Wind ' s strong embrace.

If you are not pleased we won ' t worry, for perhaps you could not have done better. We have tried to make our book representative of the whole school. The best suggestions and most appropriate remembrances have been gleaned from various sources. We realize how futile must be any attempt to put on paper the real K. S. A. C. This book is only an effort to suggest the spirit of our school, and we hope it will also serve as a memory book which will enable you to remember your fellow students a little longer. We could not close without mentioning a few of the people who have done so much to make this volume a reality. First in the list must appear the name of Mr. J. J. Sher, of the Bureau of Engraving. His ideas and art creations have been used profusely in this book. His constant attention to every detail of the art work since the book was first started, has made this part of our work a pleasure instead of a burden as is usually the rule. Mr. Colgate Buckbee, who makes it possible for the Bureau of Engraving to furnish the excellent quality of cuts, has our sincere thanks for the service rendered to us. The Union Bank Note Co. deserves the praise for the publication of our book. Mr. Leo Crabbs of this company has given his best efforts and attention to every page. To Prof. X. A. Crawford of the Department of Journalism, we are deeply indebted for many useful suggestions and valuable ideas. To Mr. . C. Calvert, our business manager, should be given much praise for his untiring eiforts to lighten our burdens. His encouragement and aid in times of need has made the task seem lighter. Every other member of the staff has done his or her best to help make this volume a success. It would take too long to give to all the praise they deserve. Lastly, we desire to express our appreciation of the support that we have received from all of the members of our class. Their manifestations of confidence in our efforts and their loyalty at all times has been the greatest asset we have had. AJL Ediior-in-Chief.
