Page Twenty-seven SENIOR HISTORY It happened that in the year 1922 there entered into this institution of learning nine boys and twelve girls; these were to bear the name of Seniors of this year. And at the beginning ‘of the third quarter two more boys joined this happy throng to plod on to the goal and finally gain the sheepskin. The class had representatives from various states such as Tennessee, Alabama, Kentucky, South Carolina, Georgia and Texas. And it so happened on the night of September the thirteenth, this class was formally wel- comed by the faculty at the reception given in Avalon Home. The next social event was the trip to Shelby Park. Not only will it be remembered by the Class as a feast of good things to eat and much merry making, but there was one who dared to jump into the lake to see if the water was fine. And when the thirtieth day of April arrived they were given another feast. This time it was by the effort of the Junior Class that this Class was entertained, which resulted in a banquet given at McFadden’s Restaurant. And yet these are not all of the social events, because there have been many meetings of this Class for business as well as fun. And it happened that this class struck terror to many on the field of combat. The boy’s basketball team won the series of games from the Juniors, and the volley ball team likewise walked away with the honors. The girls basketball team was not quite so successful as they lost several games to the Juniors. Let it be remembered that they were more successful in the tennis match and were proclaimed victors. Now it happened that the faculty gave the Class warning that all outlines for their theses must be in and approved by the committee by February the first. This edict caused much thought and many trips to the library trying to decide upon the proper subject. When the Seniors did at last pass before the commit tee and lay bare their theses outlines, after due considera- tion and meditation on the part of the committee, the outlines were accepted. This caused ex- ceeding gladness to each Senior. The final word concerning these ponderous documents was sent out and as was demanded these theses were ready for the public to see May the first. This little sketch of history must end here, but there are many other interesting things that should be recorded, but let it be remembered that this class is fond of hard work and lots of study, even though some have insinuated something to the contrary.

During months and years we have been intimately associated as classmates, some of our number entering the Academic Department of David Lipscomb College three, four, and five years ago. Our present class consisting of thirty-one members accredits much of its strength and talent, however, to the fifteen members who first entered D. L. C. for the term of 1922-23. Representing various states and filled with the spirit and enthusiasm of our modern high schools the Junior Class of ‘23 has established a record that can only be broken by the Senior Class of 24. The present year has been one of much activity as well as efficient work by the Juniors We met for organization October 5, 1922. Mr. H. J. Priestley was elected President, Mr. W. M. Cotton, Vice-President, Miss Ruby Crutcher, Secretary and Miss Dorothy Houston, Treasurer. The first social event of the year was an entertainment in the boys study hall Monday evening, November 13, 1922. But not until the annual custom of entertaining the Seniors fell to our lot did we acquaint that “dignified’’ group with the taste and ability that has so char- acterized our class. A banquet was given in their honor at McFadden’s. In literary work two Juniors won the first inter-collegiate debate of the year; a Junior won second place in the founders day oratorical contest, and in practically every public program the Juniors have been star performers. Now we have come to the moment that is going to discover those who will profit by the accomplishments enumerated. For us commencement should be only a way station where we linger a moment then move on to a year of greater and broader endeavor. “‘Move on!’’ says the world to all alike, and going on ought to make us look up with anticipation; ought to be the sunrise of our lives.

It was not intended however that those who founded this Society in 1904 should set up some man to be looked back to as being greater than anybody else and therefore to be worshipped as a deity. We look back to him only as a faithful soldier of Truth and Righteousness, a follower of the meek and lowly Nazarene. We are glad that we are followers of him, it is true, but only as he was a follower of Christ. We feel sure that was what he would have desired. Could a standard have been set higher? No! Even our motto holds the high ideal of duty in it, for what could be greater than “To develop all that is good and honorable’? We could have no better, no more humble, nor no stronger motto than this. All is embodied in it. It is not limited to one phase of our life but takes in the whole scope of our endeavors. It is our desire that each member of the society should engraft this motto into his heart, where it may as the rose, come up and blossom forth in good deeds of christian love and true service to our fellow- man. Young men that have lived with this motto before them have left the institution to become leaders in the great battle of life. Many useful, preachers have been developed in this Society and the good that has and will come from this part of the Society’s activities, can only be recorded at the judgment bar of God. But we have other things of which we are proud. We are glad that in everything on the athletic field which we have had for this year—we have been more than conquerors. We have not lost a series in anything. It is the purpose of every true Lipscomb to hold himself high in conduct, in these different contests and do only that which would be characteristic of a true sportsman. May we always be so. To debaters, the thought of having Lipscombs for opponents means defeat, hence, none of our challenges were accepted. We are indeed proud of the page of Lipscomb history which we have made this year.

The Sapphoneans have not been found wanting in this requirement; they have met it as they have all other requirements for a good organization and have proved a success. To show that they are an active body I will tell this little incident. In the fall of ’22, when school opened, the small number of old Sapphos began the “good work’’ and within two weeks had thirty-two on the roll instead of eighteen. Now, this spring of '23, there are thirty-eight on roll. Are they not workers? The following are brief books of their activities for the year: BOOK I. Literary Activities. Chapter I. The weekly programs consisting of not less than twelve numbers, all of literary value. Chapter II. During the fall term of '22—presented to the public one short play, ‘The Girls of Glen Willow’’ and “The Magic Mirrow,”’ a pageant. Chapter I]I—During the winter term of '23—presented the Annual Program, “The Queen of Sheba,’’ a Biblical drama in three acts. BOOK II. Social Activities. Chapter I. A “Pep Meeting”’ of Sappho Lads and Sappho Lasses in Harding Hall to prepare for the fight with their Sister Society in basket ball. Chapter II. Their Sister Society entertained them with a delightful four course banquet, color scheme of red, white and blue being carried out in all decorations for the occasion. A more enjoyable social event was never witnessed at David L’pscomb College. Chapter III. The latter part of the spring term of ’23 they expressed their love and apprecia- tion for their sister society by entertaining them. BOOK III. Athletic Activities. Chapter I. Athletic program not very varied. Sapphos once more proclaimed ‘Champs’ of the season in basket ball—winning three out of five games. , Page Sixty-nine KAPPA NU LITERARY SOCIETY Motto: ‘Truth Conquers.” Flower: Marschal-Niel Rose.

I walked into the library of David Lipscomb College in search of some books on Geography for Brother Kennamer’s class, and after searching for some time through the musty old volumes, Tran across a shelf marked “HISTORY.” Taking down volume X XIII, I noticed it was marked “Kappa Nu History,’’ 1922-’23. Forgetting my mission to the library, I decided to read the book, I sought out a quiet place and sat down to read. I found it so very interesting that I shall try to relate to you what I read. The book was divided into three chapters, for the three terms of the year. CHAPTER ONE When school opened at David Lipscomb College on September 26th, many new members were added to the already loyal wearers of ‘‘“Green and Gold.’’ And much work was enthusiasti- cally planned for the ensuing year. Every Monday afternoon, held a prominent part in the life of each girl, especially on each second Monday of the month when the boys were permitted to come. The lives of many great men and their works were studied. At the close of the fall term we met together in Harding Hall with the other three societies in a joint program. Having been inspired by this meeting we went home with the resolution to do much better and more work the next two terms. Closing the pages that ended that chapter, I began on the next one and it seemed to me the most interesting. CHAPTER TWO We regretted to learn on our return from home that many of our members could not return, but nevertheless with the saying in mind “It is not quantity that counts but quality’’ we resolved to do much even with a small number. The season for basketball opened and we entered into the contests with our sister society with an immense amount of pep and enthusiasm which made the heart of every Kappa Nu beat faster. Not only on the athletic field did we meet them but at one time we met them as our guest to an annual banquet. Through the years to come we feel sure each member will remember when we took the Kappa Nu boys on a picnic to Luke Lea’s spring, and many other good times dear to the heart of every Kappa Nu. I was so sleepy when I read the third chapter I hardly knew what I read, but I remember read- ing of the great success of the Kappa Nu play “THE GIFT,” also there was something of a ban- quet given the ‘KAPS’ by the Sapphos and many other events of pleasure that came during the last term. : Closing the book, I realized that all the praises of the Kappa Nu’s were true, for “the half has never yet been told.” Page Seventy-one CALLIOPEAN SOCIETY Motto: Flower: Violet.

Its origin was in Athens; it being named from Calliope, the chief muse of Epic poetry, from whom was received eloquence and beauty of voice. The chapter of Calliope here was founded by H. Leo Boles in 1904. With this noble man as its founder there began in that year in David Lips- comb College the institution of the Calliopeans, whose efforts have ever been to arrive at a high degree of mental and spiritual development. As their aim, their efforts have been liberally rewarded, as is evidenced by the great number of strong, godly and efficient men, who have gone forth from our Society Hall. This year ends another successful period for the society. Improvement is noticeable along every line. Even this year the Society has increased wonderfully in membership. In debating, and in oratory, we have had more than our share of the victories. Another victory was added by the defeat of the Calliopean Chapter at Burritt College in the Annual Debate. Again, the Calliopeans won the founder’s medal in oratory. Of the six Tri- angular Debaters, four came from our Society. Our claim for years of having the literary talent among the young men of the College has this year been faithfully sustained. Our chief aim is development within our Society Hall. But physical development is not neglected, and great progress has been made by all the athletic teams this year. This year we have lost and won. For our victories we are gratified, they being the result of our honest efforts. For our defeats we are receptive and shall benefit by them. They make us more determined and spur us on to greater efforts. May our policy ever be to win fairly or lose, as it has been in the past. We have had a noble record to make. We feel that we have this year added another store to the great institution of Calliopeans at David Lipscomb College, which institution, although magnificient now, is still in the making, still growing every year, becoming more glorious. Let us ever live up to our motto: “Truth our guide; +) success our aim. Page Seventy-three y , 2 StLLS.

The good women who make and manage homes after the divine pattern—homes in which health, happiness and contentment are and where righteousness rules supreme—are no less important factors in the welfare and progress of a people than the men who lead in the public enterprises of the day. The greatest asset that any country has is capable, godly women who are faithfully filling this exalted position in which God has placed them. The school girl of today is the home maker of tomorrow. Her training for this important and responsible position should receive attention commensurate with the dignity of her calling. If boys should receive long and careful training in order to fill positions which are not nearly so vitally connected with our social well being, why should the home- maker enter upon her difficult task untrained to grope her way in darkness and learn by the costly trial-and-error method what might have been acquired as a part of her education? Business failures are not half so detrimental to the welfare of the nation as home failures. Domestic Science and Household Arts are no longer looked upon as luxuries and side lines in our educational system. They are rapidly taking their place as very necessary parts of our curriculum. The Home Economics Department in David Lipscomb College is just closing its first year. Its growth has been very satisfactory. The ten girls in the class shown on page 82 are all doing work of college rank. An interesting class in Textiles has done most excellent work. The equipment will be improved and a greater variety of courses offered for the coming year. Page Eighty-three COMMERCIAL CLUB J.-C.

Acts—means the activities. The Havalind Acts has been published once a month by the student body and faculty of David Lipscomb College. The main purpose of it has been to give a resume of the different happenings around here and to put out materials that represent and mean some- thing to this student body. The paper this time has been a success in many respects but could be improved. At all times the students did not support the editors, letting the time slip by until too late. Let it be understood that the editors of any of our publications here, are not skilled Pro- fessors, and therefore are not free from error, but “Jesus” in his supreme purity was held up before men and criticised very severely. Let us all, if we criticise and belittle a project, take care to contribute something to its betterment. As stated above, the paper has been a success in that this is the first year it has ever been published the entire number of times, and not fall back on the school to help pay for it. It has been in the hands of the students each time on time. The management join in thanks for all the cooperation they have received from any student in any way.

Of all the games in David Lipscomb College this one is the zenith. In tennis we find the ideal game for exercise and development. No one is roughing you, you are not making a target for someone to throw at and at no time is there the likelihood of getting injured. Another feature is that you do not have to be an athlete to play this game as is the case in other sports. We have three good courts which enables twelve to play at a time, but as few as two can play and still have a good game. At the time of this writing there is a tournament on to see who is the champion player in school. The member of the club who wins will have cause to feel proud, because the club is built of good players. Page Hundred and Five GIRLS TENNIS CLUB Colors: Black and White. Flower: Sweet Pea.

The subject under discussion was, “Resolved that the United States should join the League of Nations.’’ Each college had two teams, consisting of two speakers. Affording each school to hold a discussion at home. David Lipscomb College affirmed the question at home and denied it at Harper. The decision was rendered to Abilene Christian College, but that does not deteriate from our speakers. Our speakers were Alvin Landis and E. Gaston Collins. Both of whom showed talent and work. After the debate refreshments were served out on the campus for the student body and visitors too. The Speakers who met Harper were Allen Phy and H. Donald Tubb. They are two earnest working, naturally talented foes that bore close observation. It will be noticed that this is the first contest of any kind that these schools have co-operated in and this one was the result of three unsuccessful trials. May they continue.

I do not know how you have done it, but somehow you have come into my life and taken a secure place in my heart. You have not been perfect, you have not always been good, but you have always been kind and sweet to me. Giving you up is like breaking the family circle ina happy home. But I know you must go away; back to your childhood homes or out into life to make homes of your own, and since I cannot always have you with me I am going to tell you what I have done. I have built a home in the pleasant land of memory. In that home you shall always be present and there you shall always be welcome. In the great living room the embers of reverie shall constantly glow upon the hearth, and upon the walls the shadows of fame shall ever play. There you shall be my permanent guests—in the home of my heart of hearts. TO MRS. FEOLNER Here’s to the matron—our guardian, our friend, our mother. During our stay in Avalon Home you have been our faithful companion and coun- selor. When we needed correction you gave it in all gentleness; when we needed instruction you gave it with all patience. You have shared our sorrows and our joys. You have done what you could—for you have earnestly endeavored to point us to the way of peace, truth and service. We are going out now from the home where we have passed so many happy days with each other and with you. But hereafter the name Avalon and your name shall be tenderly associated in our hearts and the name of Avalon Home will always call up before our minds an image of your kindly face. And remember, dear friend, that where ever the school- home is represented there you will find a loyal friend and be assured that throughout the years the children shall rise up and call you blessed.

Page Hundred and Nineteen EDITOR'S PAGE This title does not suit this page. We think it should be “Hold ’er Newt, the Editor ’s raving.’’ After all this page does not worry us. We do feel sorry for the people who have to read it—but we will deal gently. Several volumes could be written on the joys or rather the sorrows of an editor. This is just a small sample. Hold your nose we are going under. “Cut down expenses’’ was all the business manager could say. Every day the engraving company wanted more pictures. ‘‘More copy’’ was the only telephone message the printing company knew—and all the time we were cutting classes, chasing pictures, cartoons, and composition of every description. As the end drew near some of the pictures refused to be found. It later developed that. some few did not have pictures. That took a little more joy out of life we had to chase down to the artist’s and have several of the panels changed. Meanwhile our cash margin was decreas- ing. If you are nervous, worn out or lazy try a little of an editor’s life. If it doesn’t kill you nothing will. As a last straw some of the material proved worthless and it seemed that this page must go in blank, but we decided to give you a few gloom chasers. We have fought a good fight and our work is our only spokesman. (Yes it is dumb.) But now, no more of the “Intellectual life’’ for us. We are headed for the farm. Address all complaints to Umbrellastan or any place not nearer than 10,000 miles to Nashville. You will find us there—dead. C. C. Noet, Editor. Page Hundred and Twenly EMBER THOUGHTS The flames have all died down now and only a bed of embers smolder on the hearth. Half-hidden beneath the ashes the old back-log holds its genial warmth and casts a kindly glow over all the room. In the semi-darkness I see the smiling, yet pensive faces of my friends. My house has been filled with guests for many days; a host of happy lads and lassies have been visiting me. To me they have been most pleasant days and my visitors too have seemed to enjoy them. They have laughed and played and followed their own sweet will for the most part; but occasionally they have gathered around the fire to let me talk to them. And I have tried to teach them of the things that are dear to me, of literature, truth, beauty and all those things that bring us to a deeper appreciation of Him who summed up all that is high and good in His own life and teachings. On rare occasions, “Bobbie,’’ the busy little house-wife found time to join the back-log circle and enjoy the fireside reveries. And so the days passed until at last the evening of the final days draws near. And now you have come in the gath- ering darkness, to sit with me for a little while in the twi- light, and then you must pass out into the night. Who are you? You are the class of 1923; boys and girls whom I have loved, to whom I have given whimsical nick names, and to whom I have not always been so kind as perhaps I should have been. But you have a lasting place in my heart, my children, and whenever the back-log glows on the hearth it will always bring pleasant memories of you. Good night. Good night. Good night “Caesar,”’ “Patriarch,’’ Craude,’’ “ Mizzy,”’ � Mavis); | aiMamre, o yEmpty,¢ Mice,” Judge,’ “Jennie,” “Lucia,” “Clancey,’’ “No-No,’’ “Ethelmy,”’ “Sweetie,” “Elliott,” “Blud-john,’’ “Mood-moody,”’ “Hawkins,’’ “‘“Woe-Norton,’’ “Wellsiferous,’’ “Mavour- neen,”’ “Malaga.”’ Good night, good night, God bless you one and all.

De Wiis eisai Investing The end of school means the beginning of busiress. No part of education is more vital than a practical knowledge of saving and investing money. Life Insurarce is the first and best investment that a man should make, and it should be thought of as an in- vestment and added to as he progresses in business, and comes into a fuller acceptance of the responsibilities of family and business life. A Limited Pay Life Policy is entirely paid up in a specified term of years, and as thereafter carried as free protection, with a cash or loan value of more than fifty per cent of the face value. A man of 20 can secure our 20 Pay- ment Life Contract by investing $23.54 a year on each $1000.00. A man of 25 may secure the same policy by investing $25.62 a year. Starting at age 30 the annual investment will be $28.15. For older men our Special Ordinary Life Contract, with cash, loan, extended and paid-up insurance values, is a most economical investment. A man of 35 can secure $5,000.00 under this plan by investing $102.75 a year. Starting at age 50 the annual investment would be $182.95. It is useless to make money unless you save and invest it wisely. Try the life insurance plan. In this way you set aside a small amount weekly, quarterly, or annually, and not only protect the future for your- self and your loved ones, but protect the peace of the present by overcoming worry and anxiety. The self-denial necessary to regular savings develops the will and_ builds character. A life insurance contract made and kept is a certificate of man- hood. A. M. Burton, President.
