We have tried to be unprejudiced in our choice of material in order that the book might be of interest to each class, club, and student. We realize that this issue of the “Backlog” is not perfect, but we ask you to soften your criticisms and give us credit for having done our best, according to our abilities. If, when musing over this volume, you are led to reflect on your achieve- ments in college days, then we shall not have labored in vain. ‘OL im niin “is ouLloy, WOTBAW I@H surg pus ouo0F, s,Juepiserg ouloH, §,quLoosdry pravqg ‘sayy uniseuULAD II@H surpiey_e 1eH Avspury MHA AAH-S.GUIM Fivg Page Page Six SAMUEL PARKER PITTMAN b 4 é Ss Be E 2 F 4 2 | To SAMUEL PARKER PITTMAN B.A. who has been to us a helper and a true friend in every relation of our school life; who never omits an opportunity of doing a kindness or speaking a true word; who takes our mistakes patiently, defends us courageously, and continues a friend unchangeable.

Leo Boles, President of David Lipscomb College, has guided the college through another profitable year. By his firm judgment and administrative ability he has placed the college on a higher level. His stand for the right at all times and in all places has impressed upon the students the principles of honesty, sincerity, truth, and kindness, with all their kindred virtues. As the head of this institution he has labored incessantly for its betterment, and has given such encouragement to the students that they have been placed on the road to true success. He cannot be praised too highly for his great work. A. G. Freed, Vice President of David Lipscomb College, has done his share toward making the college year a success. For many years he has been en- gaged in the work of preparing boys and girls for the responsibilities of life. Words cannot express the deep and sincere devotion of this grand man to the truth and the good of humanity. By his wonderful personality and gentle nature, he has proved himself a true man of God. His kind words and loving ° disposition have gained for him the respect and esteem Of the exitire student body. All who ee him can but love him. These two men are true soldiers of the cross. Their united efforts have led the college through its most successful year. The works of both are monu- ments to their lives of usefulness. Faculty JOHN LRAINEY.-A.B.

PRIESTLEY Sharon, Tenn. In ‘Skipper’? we have found a_ student and thinker of unusual ability. Such is evidenced by his record and leadership as one of the outstanding members of his classes. Friendly, genial, and a man with high ideals and principles, we have found in him the making of a real citizen. We pride our- selves in claiming him as President of the Senior Class, and recommend him to the world as one destined to be successful in his life’s work.

DOROTHY BREEDING Sparta, Tenn. “Dot came to: D, Ig Cl in the ‘fall of 222, ‘from! White County High School, with a personality that won for her a place in the hearts of both students and faculty. As a student, she ranks with the best. She is gifted with a musical talent equaled by few in school. She is a great tennis player and a good booster for every sport. We believe her achieve- ments have just begun, Sapphonean; Tennis Club; Secretary of Foreign Language Club; Tennessee Club; Treasurer of 2-6-8 Club; Musie Club; Secretary of Senior Class; Ex- change Editor of Babbler. ROBE Rol lik By. Town Creek, Ala. It has been said that Robert is a heart-breaker, but we understand that: he has met his match in the breaking game. Fortunately, he is well em- barked on the final year of his college career. Robert has one, valuable business characteristic— he knows nearly everybody. Few men have set foot on the campus that Robert could not call by name. He is a genial student whom all wish well as he goes hither.

When ‘‘Mac’’ came to D. L. C. last fall, the Class of ’24 had an addition that cannot be expressed in words. Quick sympathy, keen wit, loyalty to friends, determination, sunshine, graciousness, lots of poise and personality—take all that and add the charm that is just her’s and you have ‘Mac.” Being a lover of English, she will play well in the drama of life. The Class of ’24 will watch with Keenest delight her triumph. Sapphonean; Expression Club; Tennis Club; Cos- mopolitan Club; Sapphonean Editor of Backlog; Sapphonean Five. CLARENCE- Gy YOUNG, TR: Nashville, Tenn. Since “Cy” is taking a medical course, he knows just about all the science ‘‘there is.’’ He is a broad, fair-minded, true-hearted friend, and liked by all. Next to his pipe, the Senior Class is thought to hold first place in his affections, for his love affairs (if any) remain one of the mysteries Of Dy EC. : “Calliopean; Calliopean Nine; Expression Club; “SEKVEN WONDERS;”’ Tennis Club; Day Students’ Club. MARY TITTLE Murfreesboro, Tenn. Mary is a co-ed of whom our Alma Mater has cause to be proud. She finished Franklin County High School with honors. Her high-school honors were. only stepping stones to greater ones here. Mary is not only a Latin ‘‘shark,” but she can tell Professor Cuff more about English than any one else. She is a wonderful tennis and basket-ball player, and it was by her aid that the Sapphos won the championship last year.

GREENE iioyeehent “Pinky” is one of those men that can be de- pended upon to fulfill any responsibility that he undertakes, for he is not afraid to do what is right. As Editor in Chief of the Babbler, and in other influential and responsible positions, he has given stability and progress to student affairs through his safe counsel and wise direction.

TOMMIE.LEEPER Hohenwald, Tenn. Tommie is One of the oldest co-eds in school here. She has long before now proved herself to be regarded as a leader among the women of the college. Her ability is shown in the editing of this Annual; and no matter how much or what we may say about her, she will not have been praised enough. Whatever she may do, her future will be a happy one, for she is possessed of thrift, talent, and high ideals.

A grain of mischief and a spark of fire make one immediately cognizant of a live personality. In coming in contact with Russell, there is a point to his words that may prick you, but the gleam of kindness from underneath soothes the irritation. . His varied activities on the campus, as well as his work’in the classroom, have made him an invaluable man.

The Class of ’24 counts it a peculiar honor to include in its number such a man as Brother Moser. Since entering D. L. C., he has been doing the double duty of a student and preacher. His life has been exemplary in its simple Christlike- ness. By dint of unwavering faith, strong determi- nation, and tireless labor he has reached his Senior year, and we bid him Godspeed in the future. Lipscomb; Librarian; Expression Club; Cosmo- politan Club; Preachers’ Club. MAIDELL HOWELL Elbridge, Tenn. Maidelle is one of the angels from West Ten- nessee. Her sterling worth and character have been recognized at one hundred per cent since the first day she entered school here. She is a very positive young lady, reminding one of Shakespeare’s Rosa- lind, for being a woman. She always speaks what she thinks. As for her future, we cannot say; but we believe the world will Know, as D. L. C. Knew, she is present and a very live member. Sapphonean; West Tennessee Club; Expression Club; Class Treasurer; Sapphonean Five. H. F. PENDERGRASS eet Nashville, Tenn. Mr. Pendergrass came here from Hdwards Mil's High School, Hopkinsville, Ky., in the fall of 1913. He determined to pursue the highest calling. He is a faithful worker, ardent in his profession, and true to his earnest endeavors. The lofty ideals which he possesses and stands for will be a genuine force in leading others to the better life. Calliopean; Kentucky Club; Manager of Calliopean Nine; Expression Club; Preachers’ Club; Day Stu- dents’ Club; Ancient Language Club. Page Twenty-One Senior Class ODELLE WARD Elkton, Ky. Do you note the lurking mischief in those eyes? They call him ‘‘Ward.” He enjoys a joke, and every one else enjoys it with him. His genius is dispensing witticisms, and the Class is proud of his talent. He has done his work well, and com- mands the respect of all. He who makes people laugh is better than a doctor. The world has need of your kind, Odelle. Calliopean; Expression Club; Kentucky Club. DOROTHY NEELY Nashville, Tenn. With her winning smile, quiet ways, and pleasing manner she has won a host of friends. She is ad- mired by all as a capable student. She is an active society worker, and it was through her playing that her society has won many victories. She will be missed when she leaves these sacred walls, and her’s will be no easy place to fill. We wish you much success in life, ‘‘Dot.”’ Sapphonean; Class Poet; Ancient Language Club; Day Students’ Club; Tennessee Club; Sapphonean Five. BARNEY D. MOREHEAD Nashville, Tenn. Barney came to us after-a fifteen-months’ crusade against the Germans. Although he sniffed some of their gas, he seems to have gotten the better of the little argument over there, and came back in fine shape for joining in a contest of longer dura- tion against the forces of Satan. He is a minister of the gdspel who comports himself in a manner worthy of his calling. Lipscomb; Business Manager of the Babbler; Business Manager of the Backlog; Secretary of Bible Educational Fund. Page Twenty-Two Senior Class DULCIE McDONALD Red Boiling Springs, Tenn.” Dulcie is one of the most reserved members of the Class. She, with a few others, really has the Senior dignity. This young lady wastes no time on any of the frivolous things of life, but finds happiness in being modest, quiet, and studious. Kappa Nu; Tennessee Club. JOE KIDD BROWN Lynnville, Tenn. The fall of ’22 ushered into our halls our friend, Joe Kidd Brown. The following fall he diligently sought to learn the fundamentals of medicine, by which he may be able to alleviate the pain of suf- fering humanity. He has been faithful to his task, with an occasional Saturday night off to see his best girl. But for his faithfulness he leaves the sacred halls of D. L. C. with a “‘sheepskin”’’ under his left arm and a pill box in his right hand. Luck to you, Doc!

Irma specializes in foreign languages. She can “euss’’ you out in four different languages, and yet the way she does it is marvelous. She has the deter- mination and grit that carries one over the roughest hills. Nothing but success can follow her in life. Sapphonean; ‘Cosmopolitan Club; Ancient Lan- guage Club; Tennis Club; Modern Language Club. Page Twenty-Three Senior Class HOWARD B. PAYNE Dunlap, Tenn. Howard, as we all know him, is charged with restless energy, confident of his own abilities. He doesn’t admit the word “failure” into his vocabu- lary. His restive nature could not endure the tediung of two years of uninterrupted college work. The interims between seasons in college were spent in teaching. At present, he is the most recent victim of Cupid in the Senior Class. Lipscomb; Lipscomb Five; Lipscomb Nine; Ex- pression Club; Tennessee Club; “SEVEN WON- DERS.”’ - MARY PRATER Sparta, Tenn. Mary came to us since the holidays, and hence is too new to be known thoroughly, but we think she is an addition to our. Senior Class of which we should be proud. She ‘has the elements of a true character, and we are sure that great things are in store for her. Kappa Nu; Tennessee Club. SAMPSON LESTER Nashville, Tenn. From the name of this man, one would think him to be strong, and that is exactly what he is— strong in character. After a year’s absence, he came back to D. L. C. to finish his college course. He has strengthened the’ Class of ’24 considerably, and his loyalty to the school and his service to the student body has gained the respect of all. Whatever Sampson decides to do, he will surely succeed, for a man of his character could know nothing but success. Calliopean; Preachers’ Club; Tennessee Club, Page Twenty-Four IMM 4) Postgraduate TIPTON €. WILCOX Murray, Ky. Tipton came to D. L. C. in °1%, and graduated in ’19. His mind was rather changeable during this period, and it was hard for him to decide whether to stay in school or not. After graduation in ’19, he taught in Tennessee, and the following summer he held protracted meetings. In 1920 he taught again, but in his native State, and in 1921 came back to D. L. C. to do postgraduate work, and also pursue a course in Peabody. He is still pursuing this course at Peabody, but remains with us at D. L. C., too. To know-Tipton is to know pleasure, for he has a witty remark and a smile for every one, ‘‘Mischief Maker’ would be a good name for him. The Senior Class of ’24 wishes for him great success in his future work. Page Twenty-Five Senior Class A. SMITH CHAMBERS Sheffield, Ala. “Smithy” has qualities which make him a man. He is possessed of a manly body and a soul that grows. He is an orator who paints with words what artists only dare to dream. He ranks among the first in his argumentative qualities. The world shall see him and be glad; shall hear him and be wise. Senior Lipscomb; Five; Alabama Club; Glee Club; Freed-Hardeman Club; Tennis Club; Orator. G Class Poem A loyal group of students, we, Unequaled heretofore; The chosen band of DgL. C,, The Class of Twenty-four. A spirit brave we have within, % A heart that makes us work; Our faults we leave behind us now— Our aim is not to shirk. Through days and nights we all must toil, And every task perform; The one who makes the mark, we know, Must weather every storm. As time proceeds and days go by And thoughts keep crowding in, There is a hope that spurs us on— A longing to begin. Begin our work of life, we say— To set our aim so high. Yet there’s a tender feeling now Steals o’er and makes us sigh. These faces dear we’ve learned to love We cannot leave to-day; From hearts that beat with us as one, We cannot turn away. But still the time is slipping by— We know we soon must go; Lest we forget or be forgot, Our mutual love we'll show. Together we will do our best, Each other’s grace to win; We'll raise the standard of our school— We'll miss each other then. We'll all give praise to gold and white, ° And wave our daisy o’er; For ’tis the chosen band of all, The Class of Twenty-four. 7 DOROTHY NEM Ys Senior History each comrade so dear, and to the halls of our Alma Mater, around which so many memories are clustered. But before we separate, we must give you a brief history of ourselves while here. How interesting it is to recall the history of the Senior Class at D. L. C.! We came here in ’22 as inexperienced girls and boys; and again on the 18th of September, ’23, the same happy group of boys and girls assembled on D. L. C. grounds. In each heart a resolution had been made. It was this: “The Seniors of ’24 are going to be the grandest and most noble group that ever graced D. L. C’s stage.” Has that been carried out? We will leave that to you. On September 26 this Class met for organization. The following officers were elected Hi) ) Priestley, President; }..C. Greene; Vice President ; Dorothy Breeding, Secretary; and Maidell Howell, Treasurer. ‘ All of these have proved their worth. On every occasion the Seniors have played their part, and played it well. The social hours each Saturday evening have been con- ducted by the Seniors. On Thanksgiving the devotional exercises were con- ducted by members of this Class. The Seniors have shown great skill in the management of the Babbler. Two numbers each month have been put out. This excels any record of the past. The management of the Backlog was largely composed of Seniors. Does it not speak for itself? We showed you that we were represented in every activity of the school. We had two to take part in the oratorical contest. The orations demon- strated the material of this Class. In the spring the Seniors endeavored to entertain the public. We worked hard, and feel that we proved to you what we could do. At last—and all too soon—we neared the parting of the way. What a glorious year it has been for the twenty-eight! But when the 28th of May comes, a shadow will be cast upon all members of the Class as each takes his departure to various places. Our small band became truly: united, and we feel that we have accomplished something, even though it is very small. Perhaps, we could not boast of even this small accomplishment if we had not been constantly reminded of the fact that we were “Seniors.” We are now prepared to enter upon the new works of hfe, leaving behind with regret the sunny days of college life, but taking up with real joy the serious life of our future. What we shall do in the future, we cannot say. But all future history de- pends on the past and the present. Hence we should not be afraid to predict great things. KATE GILBREATH. @ « time is drawing near when the Seniors of ’24 will bid farewell to AZ Page Twenty-Seven nn iy Senior Prophecy a party at which I was entertained by some of my old schoolmates in my home town. It had been nearly two years since last we were together. I was very much surprised at the changes that had taken place in this brief period. When I reached home that night I was very cold, but my mother had pre- pared a big fire for me. Although it was nearing the hour of twelve, I was tempted by a comfortable rocking-chair sitting near’the fire. I drew it closer and enjoyed the warmth. While there warming and thinking 4 over the merriments of the evening and the many wonderful changes that had taken place among my Kentucky friends, there came the thought to me: “What will become of my D. L. C. class friends of twenty-four?” I tried to imagine them in different positions in life, but my heavy eyes would not permit. The door by my side slowly opened. A beautiful girl dressed in a snow-white robe slowly stepped to my chair. I was too surprised to speak to the late-hour visitor. She tapped me on the shoulder, and said: “Follow me, and I will show you your class friends twenty years from now.” My heart leaped for joy, and I was soon traveling by her side. It seemed as though a day and a night elapsed and I found myself in the Sunny South. I soon found out that the town was Gainesville, Fla. While strolling in a park of the town, I was bitten by a reptile. I called for the best doctor in town, and to my astonishment Joe Kidd Brown walked in. He told me of his fame as a physician, and took me home with him to a tempting meal prepared by his wife, formerly Miss Louise Bowers. While enjoying the hospitality of Louise and Joe Kidd I was interrupted by my escort, who told me that we must hurry on, for we had much ground to cover. Another town miraculously appeared before my eyes. I walked slowly through the streets, trying to locate myself. I was very much overcome with joy when I read “Cowan.” I immediately began inquiring for George Thoro- good. I was directed to the Bank of Cowan. When I entered the door, behind the desk marked “Cashier” I saw George, and seated by him was his wife, formerly Kate Gilbreath, pleading for a new hat. | From thence we took our departure to Nashville, piloted by Brother O. S. Moser. So swift was he with his plane that in a few moments I found myself in Nashville. My first desire was to visit D. L.'C. Upon entering the build- ing at chapel time, I saw H. J. Priestley, now President, admonishing the boys to remain on their own campus. When he finished, he asked J. C. Greene, Dean of the Bible Department, to conduct the criticisms which were made by the students according to a custom more than twenty years old. so Page Twenty-Hight by : WW SX 6) NE cold night last winter, while spending Christmas at home, I enjoyed WZ J oS On the very back seat in chapel, in the place formerly occupied by our much beloved Miss Crabtree, was.Maidell Howell, now Teacher of Expression. I walked to the President’s office, desiring to talk with him of years long past; but as he was busy, I tried to content myself with a Nashville Banner. In the headlines I read: “Russell Yowell resigns as Business Manager of the Banner to accept a position in Kansas. He is succeeded by Barney More- head.” I strolled across Avalon Campus, a privilege I seldom enjoyed before, to speak to H. F. Pendergrass. I was very much surprised to be greeted at the door by Dorothy Breeding, now Mrs. Chick Jones. She told me that H. F. Pendergrass was doing missionary work in Africa, and that Ruby Crutcher was Mrs. H. J. Priestley, the wife of the President of D. L. C. When I was leaving, I met Dorothy Neely and Beatrice Seibold on their way to town, preparing for their wedding tour to Europe. The scene quickly vanished from before my eyes, and I found myself in a heavy fog. When it cleared away sufficiently to see, I found myself seated in a doctor’s office. While I was waiting, Ernestine McRae entered. She had come to see her husband, Clarence Young, about one of their children being expelled from school for smoking. Clarence carried me out to the hospital and showed me three of his best nurses—Aloise Herndon, Irma Hooper, and Dulcie McDonald. As I walked down the street of this unknown town I met Sampson Lester, who bade me follow him to a church. When we entered, Mary Prater was playing and Smith Chambers singing. It was a wedding—yes, the wedding of Mary Tittle and Howard Payne. Tommie Leeper was the beautiful maid of honor, and Clarence Garner was best man. The ceremony was performed by Robert Key. As I had seen the achievements of my entire class, I asked to see myself. My escort refused, saying— At this moment the fire blazed so brightly that I was awakened. ODELLE WARD.

Now comes the time When each of us you plainly see; And, by our work and thought sublime, We know you wonder what we'll be. You’ve heard just what our Class has done. With aim so pure, with hope serene We've worked from morn till set of sun. Our goal is fixed; reward is seen. We, members of the Junior Class, Are earnest in the work we do, And now resolve that, to the last, We'll make our lives both pure and true. Press on and on—this is our aim. Observe those things which are so true. In troubles, we are still the same Devoted friends always, to you. In future years we hope to rise, And work for good and for our God. This motto read: “He can who tries’— The Juniors had to toil and plod. HERMAN TAYLOR. Page Thirty-Nine Z CA mean a o IANA LH Junior History Lipscomb College. On that day a very large group of boys and girls entered the college. About one-fourth of the total enrollment was found to belong to one great body. This was the Junior Class of 1924. The need was soon felt for organized effort, so the Juniors met in Harding Hall October 2, 1923, and elected officers. At once the members went to work to make theirs the banner class of David Lipscomb College. This same spirit has characterized the work of this band of students throughout the year. As the largest organized body in the college, the Juniors have proved a valuable assetitoulys leas x From the number enrolled at the beginning of the year, the Junior Class increased to seventy-five members. A more promising group of boys and girls could not well be selected. Many of the number are attending college at their own expense. The Juniors represent the best families of the land. Wishing to secure a real education, they have toiled and plod through the Junior year, and have made such progress toward their set goal that it seems that none can surpass the Juniors of 1924, unless it be the Seniors of 1925. The Juniors have helped to make life at D. L. C. both pleasant and profitable. They took leading parts in the various entertainments. In contests, the Class has succeeded in some and lost in others. In a contest with the Senior High students for the banner given for Backlog subscriptions, the Junior Class won. The banner now hangs in Harding Hall, and is proof of the earnest work of the members and of the loyalty which they have for their class. They were defeated in the tennis tournament by the same class over which they won in the Backlog contest. : More important than any contest of the year is a battle in which the Juniors are preparing to take part. This is the battle of life, in which they are resolved and firmly determined to be victorious. The Junior Class does not base its superiority on athletic feats, but on intellectual attainments. The honor roll each month shows that the members of the class are workers, for their names adorn each honor roll. Team work prevails among the Juniors, and by this they have made a brilliant record as an organized body. Mae R What the class may have done dwindles into obscurity when future possi- bilities loom before it. Within each Junior there liesa firm determination to make the best use of present opportunities, and thus prepare for future responsibilities. How this will continue to be done remains to be seen, but they may safely be trusted to do their very best to overcome obstacles and impediments and to climb higher and higher until the dream of success which each member harbors shall become a perfect reality.

As is typical of Seniors, they organized their class at an early date, realizing that in unity there is strength. © Before many weeks had passed in the history of this class, its members were displaying with no little gusto their class rings, and also the class pins. This class, in harmony with the teaching of the apostle Paul, does not think more highly of itself than it ought to think, and still we are proud of the fact that we have reached this noble height for which we have been climbing. We claim the honor of being one of the best all-round classes in school; in athletics having won the inter-class championship, and feeling confident over the out- come of our pending basket-ball contests. In literary work, the class stands out among the other classes as a beacon light, having many fine readers, debaters, and speakers. We have musicians whose sweet strains vie with those of Orpheus which caused the unconscious rocks and trees to leave their places and move to the time of the air he played, and the beasts of the mountains, bewitched of their ferocity and charmed to friendship, gathered lovingly at his feet; also artists who, we are sure, will attain the fame of _ Michael Angelo; and Caruso would have deemed it an honor divine to hear our vocalists. Congeniality and loyalty have ever been our watchwords. We love each other perhaps as no class has ever done heretofore. We soon shall be scat- tered over a wide area of country, to dream of the past. But as the Seniors think of the present, and of the straight and narrow way in which they should live and act, the whole matter may be summed up in their motto: “Be square.” (B?)

J The Sapphonean Society Its Past, Present, and Future Ten years ago, in DOL. C., The “Sigma Rho” reigned alone; For there were then but few girls, you see, Who stayed in Avalon Home. But as the number of girls increased And the girls longed for a race, The Sigma Rho Society ceased— And two stood in its place. “Kappa Nu” and “SAPPHONEAN” these were named. At first their ranks were thin; But both were determi ned to gain great fame, And in everything to win. And now, as we look back through the years, It makes our hearts feel glad To see that the Sapphoneans have, without fears, Attained the heights they have. For years the Sapphos have been champs in ball— Both basket ball and tennis— And through the “pep” that resounds throughout our hall, We say: “We'll fight ’em to the finish.” But it is not only in athletics we strive To prove our superiority to you; For we know that lasting good is derived From our literary work, too. “Thus We Journey to the Stars”— Our motto this does say; And we hope, amid our friends’ “Rah, Rahs!” To gain them some sweet day. ; So “carry on,” dear Sappho girls, And make our society the “best ever,” And keep our banner forever unfurled— “Failure?” NO, NEVER! Page Fifty-Two aa ANNI nn, tip. Cs. The Sapphonean Society HE Sapphonean Literary Society has always stood, and will always @ stand, for that which is honorable and good. Throughout the years “SS the Sapphoneans have won their share of honors in the li terary work, and more than their share in the athletic activities. This year ends another successful period for the Society. Improvement is noticeable in all lines. Another victory was added by the defeat of the Kappa Nu Society tennis players. Many States are represented in the Society this year. The girls have realized that the aim of the Society is development, and they have profited by it. Our claim for years of having the literary talent among the young ladies of the college has this year been loyally sustained. Even this year the Society has fewer in number than in former years. We realize that it is the quality which counts, and not the quantity. The Society has proved the truthfulness of this statement. We have with us this year: Lorena Barber, who hails from Senatobia, Miss. ; Darline Bell, Nashville, Tenn.; Dorothy Breeding, Sparta, Tenn.; Marie Brink- ley, Nashville, Tenn.; Lillian Burton, Lois Cullum, Kathryn Cullum, Elizabeth ‘Cullum, all of Nashville. Then Barlow, Ky., sends us Marie Girard. From Sparta, Tenn., comes Frances Camp. Others from Nashville are: Richie Mae Dean, Robbie McCanless, Mary Moore, Dorothy Neely, Enola Rucker, Ruth Tallman, Elsie Acuff, Mary Blankenship, and Thelma Morrow. Who should come to us from Elbridge, Tenn., but Maidell Howell? And Freda Landers’ home is in Highland Home, Ala. Another from Alabama is Mildred Mars; she came from Tuscumbia. Elizabeth Owen’s former home was Pocahontas, Tenn. Ruby Pond came from Henderson, Tenn. Gertrude Rus- sell hailed from Monterey, Tenn. From Georgia we have three girls: Irma Hooper, Marietta; Ruby Hartley, Atlanta; and Ernestine McRae, Rockmart. Mary Tittle comes from Murfreesboro, Tenn., while Evelyn Ward’s home is in Elkton, Ky. We have another girl from Mississippi—Frances Greenlee, who lives in Columbus. Frances Dawson came from Adairville, Ky. Arkansas sends us four girls—Wilna Massey and Mildred Formby, from Waldo; and Lillian Wilson and Joyce Duvall, from Imboden... Hilda Houston came from Parsons, Tenn.; while Erline Harville’s home is in Moulton, Ala. The Society is full of enthusiastic and energetic members. We intend to make it a better society than ever before, and we intend living up to our motto: “Sic itur ad astra.” Page Fifty-Three Calliopean Literary Society Flower: Violet Colors: Blue and Gold Motto: “Truth our guide, success our aim” ROLL EERO LL, BOLES CULLEN DIXON JOHN JENKINS ALEX BURFORD JC, GREENE GEORGE KINNIE JIMMIE BYERS NELSON GARDNER LEONARD KIRK JOE K.

This year =“ the Calliopean Literary Society has attained greater goals than ever. At the opening of school, we desired to add to our loyal ranks many new brothers. We made no distinction between the workers and the shirkers; for when once the Calliopean spirit becomes embedded in any one, he works, if necessary, until not an ounce of energy is left. Although we did not get the majority of new students, we are satisfied with having drawn such as will, by the help of the Society and its standards, make better progress in the future. : . This Society has a reco rd of the past that can only be equaled by one of the future. Proof of great work done by it are the men who have been successful. Some old Calliopeans are: Profs. H. Leo Boles, R. P. Cuff, Stroop, Rivenbark, and Bradley; also Messrs. McBroom, Fox, Terry, Poole, Hanlin, and Good- pasture. Many others are indeed worthy of mention, but space forbids. The training in literary and physical branches received in the Society fitted these men whose names have been given to remove mountains. The Calliopean Society, true to form, was eager this year for contests with the other societies, for only by keen rivalry does improvément come. The Calliopean spirit of work and cooperation won the loving cup which was offered by the management of the school paper to the society that would secure the largest percentage of subscriptions. This is the second consecutive time the Calliopeans have won the cup, and once more will secure it as a per- manent trophy. Another complete victory was tallied when Calliopean orators won both first and second places in the Founder’s-Day Oratorical Contest. In athletics we do not claim all the honors, but expect to divide equally with our brother society. We, the Calliopeans, have a vision of a greater College, and we intend to work hard for our Society, that our vision may be realized. We urge pros- pective students to enter David Lipscomb College, and we beg them to con- sider our Society as their friendly guide while in school here. This Society rejoices at the present growth and bright prospect of the College. In the fall of 1924 Calliopeans will welcome gladly all new students. Watch the College grow, and watch the Calliopean Society grow! JOE KIDD BROWN. © we strive to climb high. To-morrow we wonder at our success ; S Page Fifty-Five Calliopean Debaters link in a long chain of fraternal Calliopean Societies. There are Cal- liopean Societies in several States of the United States. For several years an annual, and exceedingly pleasant, event has been the debate between the Calliopeans of David Lipscomb College and those of Burritt College, of Spencer, Tenn. This year the local boys will send as their efficient debaters Roy Vaughan and Samuel Tatum, Clarence Young being alternate. The question is: “Resolved, That immigration be prohibited in the United States for the next ten years.” Our team, we know, will-do full justice to the affirmative side of this issue, on which side it will debate.

Dear Eleanor: I don’t know when I have enjoyed a letter from you more than I enjoyed the one I receive d to-day. You told me so many interesting things about the dear old Kappa Nus. I had been wondering what had become of all of them. Marie and Earl finally got married! She sent Hazel an invitation. Frankie, Irene, and Gladys were the bridesmaids, and Tommie was matron of honor. Wasn’t that interesting? All of them were Kappa Nus, too! I was so surprised last Sunday when | went ta church, for whom should I see but Kate and the “sun-parlor girls?” They were on their way to visit Alice Burgan, in Pennsylvania. Florence still wears those beauttful curls, and Mary Ethel is “sporting” a diamond on her left hand. Kate and Alice are just the same, but the years are beginning to tell on them. So many of our girls are teaching school. Martha B. and Ora Lou are teaching English in one of the High Schools in Birmingham. They are board- : ing with Thelma Soyars, in her very happy little home. Lillie McKee is teaching Home Economics in the same school. I was so surprised to hear of Alice Blair.and La Nelle being married. I thought Nelle Carver would be the first of that crowd, but suppose she will De next Joyce tells me that Harriette and Mary Neely are doomed to be old maids. Joyce has a candy kitchen here. You know she was quite successful in the art of candy making in D. L. C. : I wish I could have been with you in Florida. Were Louise and “Pansy” surprised at your coming to see them on your “honeymoon?” It was a grand old meeting, I’m sure. ah Can you tell me anything about Edna Mae, Margaret, and Willie? The last I heard of them they were touring the country lecturing on woman’s suffrage. Imagine my surprise when you told me about Gladys Lynch being married! She always contended that she would have a career, and I suppose she is find- ing married life a career within itself. Pocahontas has gone to Africa to live! Well, we know the attraction: When did Ora Lee and Trixie leave for Japan? I knew that Nellie had been there several years. Isn’t it noble of them to make such a sacrifice? You were lucky indeed to meet all those girls in Mississippi—Katherine, Mary Lois, Nemma, and the twins, Margaret and Martha Lewers. It was al- Page Fifty-Eight most like an old-time K. N. meeting, wasn’t it? Did you forget and “call the house to order ?” Beatrice corresponds with Thelma Mc. She and Harriette Orndorff have established a Pasteurizing plant in Chicago, and are daily distributing milk to starving children. Frankie Hall an inventor? I hope she’ll send a few of those marvelous rat traps to D.L.C. I remember that there were a few mice in Avalon Home! Mary Jones is Dean of Expression in Asheville, N. C. Dulcie and Pearl Smith are studying with her. Della Kirkpatrick is posing for a masterpiece which Bee will soon complete... It is wonderful. She told me about Naomi’s being in training in St. Thomas Hospital, in Nashville. Lorine Sims sails for Europe in September, where she will study Piano two years before making a world tour. Leonte is a famous short-story writer. Have you been reading her stories in the American? Hazel, Bee, Ruby, and I went to hear Ellen Bailey sing last Saturday even- ing. She is singing in the Grand Opera “Carmen,” and she certainly sings beautifully. She has made such a success! To think that Lillie Mae is the wife of the Vice President of the United States! She was such a deserving girl. Jessie Spencer is librarian in Carnegie Library, New York. Frank Neely conducts the story hour there every week. Christine Martin is coaching basket ball in Wellesley College. Thanks for sending me Margaret Rehorn’s address. I: knew she was in Nashville, but I didn’t know that she was the Governor’s Private Secretary. Well, Eleanor, when I think of all those dear old girls I quite forget how much I’ve written. It is pleasant to know that all of them are doing splendid work in the world. I’m sure they contribute much of the honor to their . society work in D. L. C., because it did cultivate our talents. I often think of our pleasant friendships and the years we roomed together in the Dormitory. Nothing could give me more pleasure than a visit with you in your new home. I’m sure you are extremely happy. By the way, how do you-like being a preacher’s wife? Write to me often, and tell me all you know about our schoolmates. I spend many happy hours in retrospection. I like to live my school days over again and again. I see so much in them now that I could not see then. My work here is so interesting! I enjoy it thoroughly, and feel that I am accomplishing a great deal; but I’m living in hopes of coming to Tennessee again in a few years, and I want you to go with me to our Alma Mater. Perhaps we'll see Mrs. Feulner and some of our old teachers. Since Oma is matron of the dining hall, ’'m sure we won’t have cabbage for lunch. Remem- ber cabbage day? Ha! With much love, MYRTLE. P. S.—Give my love to Lady Cullie and Aloise. Aren’t you glad to have such congenial neighbors? How long have they been living in Nashville?

It was not intended, however, “=” that those who founded the Society in 1904 should set up some man to be looked back to as being greater than any one else, and therefore worshiped as a deity. We look back to him only as a 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 this was what he desired. Could the standard have been set higher? Our motto holds, packed within its compass, the grand aspirations of the whole human family. There is not a citizen of any civilized nation but that adores the meaning and the essence thereof. It is not limited to one phase of our life, but takes in the whole scope of our endeavors. Young men who ‘have lived with this motto before them have left the institution to become leaders in the conflicts of life. Many preachers have been developed in this Society. The good that has come and will come from this part of the Society’s activities can only be revealed by the occasion when those who have it as their guide shall step out upon the unknown shores of eternity and be met with a smile, and be given a fond, sweet welcome into the home of the soul.

It is the purpose of every true-hearted Lipscomb to hold himself high in conduct in these different contests and do only that which is characteristic of a true sportsman. May we always do so. To debaters the thought of having Lipscombs for opponents means defeat ; hence, none of our challenges were accepted. We, as true Lipscombs, are indeed proud of the record we have made this year.

Full many a true-hearted Lipscomb Thinks oft of those life-giving rays, And back from life’s turmoils and struggles He longs to live over those days. The tide of life’s river is ebbing In the lingering twilight of day, And mem’ries that come in the evening Are the sweetest along the way. In the hall are pictures of Lipscombs, Representing that time-honored band— Mute spokesmen of deeds done by workers, Who fashioned our fame with their hand. And, filled with the spirit of goodness By those who look down from the wall, We roll back the years to their glory In the hush of Lipscomb Hall. f Wwe Then, borne on the breezes of twilight, Comes the sound of the Lipscomb call; The Blue-and-White Banner floats proudly, As the shadows of evening fall.

L. C., stationed in the northeast corner of the second floor of our school building. Small indeed is this room, but we must remem- ber things of great importance can be done in a small space. In this room the most enjoyable and artistic things of life are observed, studied, and admired by all who are interested in the higher planes of life. One glance at the walls. will be enough to inform you of the one purpose and aim of the busy workers stationed here, which is to open wide the gates of the sacred source and let the light of Art thrill the heart of humanity with a new, holy love which is purifying unto all. Art is for all, and it will unify all-creation. Every one should appreciate it to enjoy the happiness of life. To bring this happiness into different lives, we must start with the child, teaching him to observe beauty in all things. The development of the creative instinct must start in the earliest years of child- hood, so that they will carry it through the years of life to come. From any point of view, the man or woman who can draw, seeing before them that which is not, but is to be, has a great advantage in this life over the one who cannot. In dealing with the things which are necessary for our welfare and comfort, the intelligence of Art plays a leading role. What piece of machinery or what plan of a home can be properly obtained without the qualities of Art? Art gives one an insight into the beauties of form and structure in the various objects of nature. We doubt not that God is a lover of beauty. He fashioned the worlds in beauty when there was no eye to behold them but his own. All along the wild old forest he has carved the forms of beauty. Have you not noticed them? Let us not say “No,” for this would be doing an injustice to God to pass them by, or have them in our midst at all times and still cease to observe what has been so plainly placed before us to enjoy. Every cliff, mountain, and tree is a statue of beauty. We should pass each day by selecting the things of beauty and studying their importance of being, which gives to us a new pulse unknown before; but this can never be done unless the mind has been trained to detect the hidden lines of beauty, unseen at a single glance. Not only should they be able to discover Art in their surroundings, but by direct contact, by the com- bination of their hands and mind, making for us a work of Art. Art brings out clearly all the things that are present, no more nor no less; therefore, it is the one way possible of speaking the truth. Art should be brought to all. Will you not do your part? q° are welcome to journey with me to a small, but interesting, spot Page Seventy-Nine Music em, N this wonderful age of learning, advancement, and achievement, music 2 has a great and, perhaps, the leading, part. — Art, which includes painting, decorating, sculpture, architecture, and domestic science, together with literature and athletic development, cannot be compared with music. | In the hurry and bustle of life, have you ever paused to consider what a monotonous, colorless existence we would have to lead here without music? Since the foundation of this old world, God has given us the exceeding great blessing of music, for in the very first chapter of the first book in the Bible we find that winged birds were created to fly about the earth—and what is sweeter than the notes of birds? They are Nature’s music that man quite often tries to imitate. N W222) The bird doth not betray the secret springs Whence note on note her music sweetly pours. Music is a composition of melody, harmony, technique, rhythm, tune, and tone color that may be rendered by voice or instrument or a combination of both. It is the emotions of the heart expressed in notes. Shakespeare has said: “Tn sweet music is such art Killing care and grief of heart Fall asleep, or, hearing, die.” Jubal was the father of all who handle the harp and pipe. David, the man after God’s own heart, wrote the Psalms to be accompanied with stringed instruments. This was praise to Jehovah. To-day, music is required in worship, for in Eph. 5: 19 Paul says: “Speak- ing one to another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody with your heart to the Lord.” Music has been of great importance since the beginning. We of the pres- ent age are appreciating it more than ever before. In Revelation, John says: “The voice which I heard was as the voice of harpers singing with harps, and they sang as it were a new song? before the throne.” Thus we find that music is not only material, but spiritual and lasting. It has the power to sway our hearts under all conditions and circumstances. When sad or in deep sorrow, it can soothe and comfort; when weary, it re- freshes and creates within us new life; when cheerful, it makes us still hap- pier. On all occasions music is appropriate. It was Martin Luther who said: “I verily think, and am not ashamed to say, that, next to Divinity, no art is comparable to music.” NELUIMBERTZEA.

SELLERS CORAL WILLIAMS GRAVES WILLIAMS SCHOOL ATHLETICS, SOCIETIES and SCHOOL ACTIVITIES Book IV The New Gymnasium HE. new $17,000 gymnasium, which was recently completed, is the fifth building to be erected on the campus of David Lipscomb College. Its ‘= construction was begun at the opening of the fall term of 1923. This marked an impetus in the growth of David Lipscomb College. From the beginning the students looked forward with interest to the time of its com- pletion. On February 1, 1924, the formal opening was made, and the gymna- sium became a place of recreation for the students. The gymnasium is a very beautiful building of red pressed brick. It is equipped with dressing rooms, a 60x35-foot playing court, and a balcony which will seat two hundred people. The gymnasium presents a very attrac- tive appearance, and adds much to the beauty of the school plant. This building is used for recreation, band practice, and gymnastics. Its advantages can hardly be overestimated. It adds culture to the boys and girls by making possible the benefits which come from physical exercise. It enables the students to take sufficient exercise in a thorough and profitable way. The addition of a gymnasium to the college buildings places the col- lege on a higher level and ranks it with the best institutions of learning. It provides as modern conveniences as can be secured at other institutions of this type. Page Highty-Nine BZ .

From that date the Olympic Games were staged every ” four years over a span of eleven centuries. In the beginning the Olympic event was a match between runners in the Stadium. Later other events were added—such as wrestling, boxing, jump- ing, bareback horse races, javelin hurling, and the famous four-horse chariot, races, One thing that made the ancient Olympic Games so great a success was the absence of hired performers. No money prizes were offered, but the victors were crowned with a wreath from the sacred olive trees near Olympia. Thus the Olympiads appealed only to those who would compete honorably and solely for the love of clean sports. Originally the Olympic Games were local. Later they brought together in temporary reunion the scattered fragments of the old Greek Empire. D. L. C. does not tolerate intercollegiate athletics; nor does it offer pecu- niary reward for winners in contests; yet there is fostered here the spirit that prevailed in the Olympic Games—namely, that of love for clean and whole- some sport and profitable recreation. As the various sections of the Greek Empire were bound together by games, so should the classes, States, and societies of D. L. C. be brought closer together by contests on the athletic field and in the gymnasium. Late in September the stars of ’22-’23 who returned met with the much larger squad of new athletes and played the first games of the school year. Several baseball games were played, and a large number of players were dis- covered to strengthen the teams when the baseball season opens in the spring. The first game was played between the Cosmopolitans and Tennessee, and resulted in a 12 to 2 score in Tennessee’s favor. Dodd hit a home run. ; The next game resulted in a 5 to 1 victory for the boarders over the day students. Campbell and Crisman hit home runs. What was probably the best game played during the fall was between the College and the High School. The College won 5 to 4 in the last inning. Parham contributed a four-base hit in this game. The College won the deciding game of the series 2 to 1, after a pitching duel between Gleaves and Priestley. The basket ball season was opened with a game between the Junior and Senior High teams. The Juniors crushed the Senior High team 36 to 9, but in the second contest the High School won from their former conquerors aj gone! Unfavorable weather has stopped outdoor games, but since the opening of the gymnasium the contest for supremacy has been resumed between socie- ties and among classes. As the Backlog goes to press, but three games have been played in the new building. The results were: Sapphoneans, 10; Kappa Nus, 2. Lipscombs, 25; Calliopeans, 23. Lipscomb Reserves, 14; Calliopean Reserves, 9. Herbert Jordan has offered a beautiful loving cup to the girls’ society that wins in basket ball. Both teams are practicing hard, arid there is promise of some lively contests between these teams for the trophy.

({) It is a well-known truth that debating furnishes one of the best —® means of development in the art of public speaking. This year David Lipscomb College has a very large Debating Club, which meets regu- larly for study and practice in argumentation. Much time has been given to the work, and teams are now selected to meet teams from other colleges in a clash of argumentation. These teams represent the best debaters in school. In many ways we may liken them to Demosthenes of old, who so greatly influenced men by the power of his speech. In 1922 contracts for annual intercollegiate debates were signed by David Lipscomb College; Abilene Christian College, of Abilene, Texas; and Harper College, of Harper, Kan. Each college selects four men, two to affirm the proposition at home and two to deny it abroad. This year David Lipscomb sends two men to Abilene and meets Harper’s men here. This triangular method of debating proves very efficient, and is an event looked forward to by all the students. The teams are trained here by meeting each other in debates before meeting the teams from other colleges. Not only has this college arranged for a triangular debate, but it has also arranged for debates with other colleges. Challenges were issued to Bryson College, of Fayetteville, Tenn., and Freed-Hardeman College, of Henderson, Tenn. Both colleges accepted, and as a result D. L. C. has selected six de- bating teams of two men each. : Questions have been submitted and fully decided upon. The discussion with Abilene and Harper will be on the proposition: “Resolved, That a Department of Education, coordinate with the other Departments of State, should be created by the United States Government.” The proposition for debate with Bryson College is: “Resolved, That the United States should cancel all financial obligations due from the Allied Governments on account of the World War.” The discussion with Freed-Hardeman will be on a Soldiers’ Bonus Bill. The same arrangements have been made with Bryson and Freed-Hardeman as for the triangular debates. Much care has been taken in selecting men for these debates. A Faculty Committee composed of H. Leo Boles, E. H. Ijams; A. G. Freed, R. P. Cuff, S. P. Pittman, and Miss Crabtree served as judges. Try-outs were held in which the contestants prepared and delivered speeches on either side of the question. The judges graded each speaker, and selected the four best in each case. On February 28, 1924, the Bryson teams were selected. They were Russell Yowell and C. J. Garner to deny the proposition at Fayetteville and Herman Taylor and Henry Carter to affirm the question here. The triangulars, selected March 4, are J. C. Greene and H. F. Pendergrass to deny the proposi- tion at Abilene and Smith Chambers and C. C. Young to affirm the question Page One Hundred Two HN aa HON here. Smith Chambers and Luther Roberts were selected to represent D. L. C. at Henderson, and Robert Key and James Camp will meet Freed-Hardeman’s team here. These young men are loyal to their college, and are trusted to do their very best toward winning the decisions. A few words about each will suffice. Russell Yowell is a native of Franklin, Tenn., and a member of the Senior Class. He is a member of the Calliopean Literary Society and has consid- erable ability as a debater. C. J. Garner comes to D. L. C. from Abilene Christian College. He also is a Senior. As a preacher, he has developed very much in public speaking. His membership is with the Lipscomb Society. Herman Taylor is from Kelso, Tenn. He comes to D. L. C. from teaching in the schools of Lincoln County. He is a Lipscomb. Henry Carter, of Sparta, Tenn., a member of the Calliopean Society, devel- oped much ability as a debater in the White County High School. J. C. Greene, of Troy, Tenn., is a member of the Calliopean Society. He is a preacher and debater of no mean ability. He is a Senior, too. H. F. Pendergrass, of Nashville, Tenn., has been preaching for several years. He is a Calliopean and a Senior. Being a married man, he under- stands the special tactics of debating. | Smith Chambers, of Sheffield, Ala., has won distinction as an orator. He .is a Senior and a Lipscomb, and is sure to bring victory to D. L. C. in debate. C. C. Young is this year a Senoir, and is capable of filling his place on the debating team. His home is in Nashville. He is a Calliopean. Luther Roberts, of Henderson, Tenn., has distinguished himself as a de- bater. He is a Lipscomb and a member of the Senior High Class. Robert Key, of Town Creek, Ala., is worthy of a place on the team, as he is well versed in argumentation. He is a Lipscomb and a member of the Senior Class. ! James Camp, of Sparta, Tenn., won honors as a debater in his high school days. He is a member of the Calliopean Society and the Junior College Class. As the Backlog goes to press the teams are at work on their debates. The time for the debate with Bryson is set for March 29; for Freed-Hardeman, on April 5; and with Abilene and Harper, on April 18. The entire college is behind the teams, and is trusting them to meet the situation firmly and bring home a victory for David Lipscomb College. Thus may the college secure broader recognition and the men in training get from their efforts such development as will greatly redound to their success in life. Paye One Hundred Three My Mission or great writers—but it is rather to guide, to influence, and to train the young women who are intrusted to my care and keeping; to train them in the noble walks of purity, modesty, gentleness, and chastity. It is my prayer and aim to set such examples before them that they can never forget them, in whatever sphere of life they may be thrown. In this age many women are called upon to take the responsibilities of political duties. It is being recognized more and more that woman can com- pete with man in numerous activities, which she is accordingly doing; but to my mind the true realization of woman, as God intended her to be when he placed her in the garden, is to be a homekeeper. “It takes a hundred men to make an encampment, but only one woman to make a home.” Her love is constant; it is the one star that darkness cannot quench. It feels the greatest gratitude; it forgives the most cruel injury. : Then, my girls, | would have you remember me as one who loves every one of you and who feels a motherly interest in you. I cannot express my grati- tude for the privilege I have had of associating with and studying you, the types of God’s most noble work. Though it may have seemed hard to sacri- fice some pleasure you have been denied, remember it was for your safety, and only the genuine love in my heart for you prompted such restriction. And now I must say: “Girls, remember our mission, profit by our mis- takes, and strive ever onward, upward, toward the standard which God has ordained for us.” MRS. MARY E. FEULNER, Matron of Avalon Home. ({) mission in life is not among the famed of earth—among the sages Page One Hundred Four Retrospection AKING Annuals, teaching school, and keeping dormitories are not child’s play. Difficulties, unsuspected at first, arise from time to time in each. But there is much in all three which characterizes what we know as the nobler and higher aspects of man, embodying in many respects the elements which distinguish him from the lower animals and exalt him into th e image of his Creator. When we have left school and become lost, as it were, in the masses of humanity, it will be often at first, then less often, then seldom, that we shall glance again at the school activities that were ours during our year at David Lipscomb College. We will not carry with us many of the abstract facts learned in books. Education now consists largely in the develoment of cor- rect attitudes and ideals. So it is to be hoped that in after years, when we turn again to these pages, we will see only the good things which surrounded us while here. Connection with the Boys’ Dormitory has been interesting. Its situations are splendid for the study of human nature, and are replete with opportunities for helping boys in many ways. The morale as well as the morals of the boys, generally speaking, are on a plane seldom seen to-day. They are from Christian homes, and have been reared thus far by parents who think not -so much of to-day or to-morrow, but who think more of a training that will fit us for a greater after a while. Then it is a pleasure to work with and among such boys. This Annual is in a sense a peculiar one; but it pictures the life of a peculiar school, in some respects. Comparison with those of some other colleges and institutions, then, will reveal some significant differences. Much of the space usually given to fraternities and sororities we have devoted to other things. It is our hope that those who read ours will see pervading the whole a spir- itual atmosphere. It is our desire that mothers and fathers who examine this book, and learn more of the school, will feel certain that their boys or girls, if sent to our school, will receive not only a literary education as good as the best, but, what is more important, a moral an d spiritual training which is the best to be had. We seem to think now, while in the midst of school life, that its memories will always be fresh. But it will soon be over, the old associations gone, and the pleasant memories that we thought indelible will fade and fade until a shadow here and there is all that remains. But let us hope, as did Aneas concerning his lamented wife, that some evening it will delight us to think of these things, and that when our hair has turned gray we may draw our easy chairs up to the fireplace and follow back with pleasure the road that is now so familiar. A program, a name, a class, a team, and a club will each bring back its memories made dearer viewed through the veil of years. And it is the fondest hope of those whose duty it is to direct the affairs of the school that they who may chance to look will see through it all the real spirit of David Lipscomb College as its dominant characteristic.

I can’t stand Lamb or Bacon, for They couldn’t own a car at all, They upset my digestion. Because they lacked attire. Don’t be Misled We were coming from the picnic, And wandering o’er the land; The moon was softly shining, I held her little—shawl. I held her little shawl— I gazed into her lunch basket— How quick the evening flies! I wished I had a taste; With gentle tones of love, i .

But between the hours of ten and twelve at night there comes from their rendezvous the delightful odor of weiners and sizzling sausage. A new boy in school might sniff the air and ask: “What is it, and where is it?” The answer is: “The Lion Tamers are holding forth to-night.” But feasting is only a secondary motive for its existence, for behind this it must have some deeper, more significant purpose, worthy of its members. We know not: Butthe: Lion Tamers’ Club isa credit to D. L..C., and every member is a live wire and real sport. We are sure that their wholesome, good-hearted nature, their love for fair play and fun will follow them out from under the shadows of David Lipscomb College. @ © Lion Tamers’ Club is composed of five boys, each a member of the OO The Lion Tamers’ Band Each waves his pan; Toiling, rejoicing eating, On every Sunday night On through life we go, They send a signal to each man Each man bearing all his part That gives the weiners a fright.

The Seven Wonders and without ceremony, assumed the name “Seven Wonders.” The laws that govern this body are unwritten, and it is mutually agreed that no new member shall be admitted and that those who compose the club shall be members for all time. In this way the name “Seven” will always apply to this group of “Wonders.” No officers are necessary in this club, for each member understands every other member. As do the ants, they prepare their meat when they have opportunity, and it is cooked between study periods and eaten when the proper signal has caused the Seven to assemble. A volume would not contain the record of the activities of the ‘Seven Wonders,” but chief among them are entertainments by Member Cy Young at his home on Blair Boulevard.

We have selected as our colors Silver and Blue. All is not wisdom in life, however hard we try to make it so, and why not use our motto— “Eat and Love.” Our number is limited, since we have such strenuous rules of entry. Our object is to divide all good eats, tell only the good things, and love some one. Who are our worthy officers? Why, our President is none other than Tommie Leeper, and our Secretary is Myrtle Baars. We havé for our Vice President admirable Eleanor Frazier.

Each member was asked to think of some name for the club and bring it before the meeting next time. The name “Owl” was agreed upon. Having established and named this gathering of worthy young men, it is now fitting and proper to tell some of the purposes of this club. The first and most important is to maintain high ideals and develop a worthy Christian spirit that will befit boys of David Lipscomb College. ; The club holds two meetings weekly, the first being given over entirely to business, while on the following night the weekly feast is held. In connection with' this it is proper to state our motto: “Hat, Drink, and Be Merry.” The flower selected by common consent is the ivy. Come on, boys, let’s go! When the moon shines over the fifth limb of the old oak tree and three acorns fall in succession, the Owl Club will meet on the fourth limb, beneath the smiling rays of a beautiful moon, The wise old moon winks her left eye in approval. So, boys, let us continue the good work and, above all, always stand up for the right. A wise old owl sat in an oak; The more he saw, the less he spoke; The less he spoke, the more he heard— Why can’t we be like that old bird? ; SEC. WILLIAMS.

And through the heat of burning road We bravely march along; But uncomplaining bear our load, And ever sing this song: The days at Lipscomb, dear old days, Would I could live them o’er! Those happy days bring to a close The hours we'll live no more. The days to come can never be Compared to those with thee; But, Lipscomb dear, we ask of you To keep us brave and true.

We wish to thank all who have labored so heartily with us in getting out this third volume of the Backlog. We thank those who in their tireless efforts have contributed toward bring- ing this volume itself to completion through the donation of their various tal- ‘ents. We cannot fail to thank those artists who have observed the humorous side of campus life and have helped make the Backlog interesting by adding the comic section. Especially do we thank our friends and patrons who have subscribed to space in the advertising section, thus making this edition of the Backlog a financial possibility. Finally, we desire to thank the McQuiddy Printing Company and the Gulbenk Engraving Company for their assistance in editing this Annual. We tender our heartfelt thanks to all of these for their services, and sincerely trust their reward may be realized in the stuiccess of the nineteen twenty-four Backlog.

L. C. We especially extend our thanks to Miss Hilda Houston and Mr. Harvey Dodd, of the Senior High Class; Miss Eleanor Frazier and Mr. Cecil Clarke, of the Junior College Class; and Miss Maidell Howell, of the Senior College Class, for the services they rendered, representing their respective classes. Among others who have assisted, we are especially indebted to Messrs. Rob- ert Key, Clifford Greene, Joe Kidd Brown, H. J. Priestley, and Russell Yowell, who were instrumental in securing advertisements. The Business Management, assisted by almost every Senior boy, secured all the ads by Christmas, which were then set up, proof submitted, and the money collected before the Annual went to press. About half the cost of this Annual was donated by our friends who adver- tised with us. Each student and teacher of David Lipscomb Coilege uses this opportunity to thank them again for their cooperation in financing this publi- cation.

Then we trolleyed back to town and danced till dawn. Then we motored to the beach and Fridayed there.” The brother on the farm wrote back: “Yesterday we buggied to town and baseballed all afternoon. Then we went to Ned’s and pokered till morn. To-day we muled out to the cornfield and gee-hawed until sun- down. Then we suppered and then we piped a while. After that, we stairstepped up to our room and bedded until the clock fived.” Odell Ward (entering café): “Hello! Anything new on the bill of fare to- day?” T. D. Pruitt: “There’s a grease spot I didn’t see there yesterday.” Mrs. Noble (in Art): “Largent was a great artist. With one stroke he could change a smiling face to a sor- rowful one.” Beatrice: “That’s nothing. My mother can do that.” Garner: “Do you think you could learn to love me?” Nell Carver: “I’m afraid not.” Garner: “’Tis as I feared—too old to learn.” T. C.: “What do you think about?” Frankie N.: “Nothing at all.” T.C.: “Don’t you ever think of me?” Frankie N.: “All the time.” Miss Birdie: “A biped is anything that goes on two feet. Pocahuntas, name one.” Pocahuntas: “A pair of stockings.” Myrtle: “Mrs. Fuelner, can broth- er carry me to town?” Mrs. Fuelner (horrified): “Broth- er?” Myrtle: “Yes—Brother Wilcox.” Page One Hundred Seventeen Father: “I hate to see you always at the foot of your class, son.” Son: “What difference does that make? They teach the same thing at both ends.” A little boy was warming his hands by the kitchen stove when his father remonstrated: “Go ’way, my son. The weather isn’t cold.” “Tm not warming the weather, I’m warming my hands,” replied the boy. Remember well and bear in mind A real good joke is hard to find; And when we find a joke that’s new, Please don’t get mad if that joke’s on you. , A recent advertisement of a music ‘teacher read thus: “Special pains given to beginners,” That teacher is so frank. “Yes,” said Hefflin, “I wanted to work some, so I thought I’d raise potatoes.” “Well, I thought I’d do that,” said Greer; “but when I looked up how to raise them I found that potatoes must be planted in hills, and our garden is perfectly flat.” Freshman: “You are not what you used to be.” Senior: “No; I used to be a Fresh- man.” Teachers get many queer’ answers to examination questions, but imagine this answer for five of Shakespeare’s plays: “King Liar, A Merchant of Venus, Old Fellow, McBath, Omlet.” APOLOGY TO LONGFELLOW Lives of teachers all remind us They can make our lives a torture, And on flunking leave behind us Such a grade that is a scorcher— Grades that perhaps another Sailing o’er our college main, Some forlorn and flunking brother, Seeing, may take heart again. Mrs. Feulner: “Conductor, what door shall we go out by?” Conductor: “Either one, madam; the car stops at both ends.” Nix: “Do you see that girl over there? She keeps smiling at me.” Vaughan: “I admire her sense of humor.” Brother Cr you a test to-uay. Irene Burch: “Yield not to tempta- tION, apted to give Brother Pittman: “Why would you be like a ten-cent store should you sit on a dime?” Tommie: “Don’t know. Why?” Brother Pittman: “Nothing above ten cents, my child.” James Camp: “I fell off of a sixty- five-foot ladder to-day.” Herman Taylor: “It’s a wonder you weren’t killed.” James Camp: “Killed? Why, I was only on the first step.” Brother Boles (in Church History) : “T heard you talking in my class.” Bill Brown: “No, sir; I never talk in my sleep.” Student: “What does ‘archaeology’ mean?” Professor: “The science of the ark, of course.” Brother Rainey (dictating to the class): “If the temperature is tre- bled?” La Nelle: “How do you spell that?” Brother Rainey: “T-h-a-t.” Remember— ———— When'‘we first met at D.

A few short hours while shine the stars— Uranus, Neptune, Venus, Mars— While fireplace embers glow. On us to-day the sun has set. “Lord God of hosts, be with us yet;” Make us in heart serene. Serene in soul we want to be; Give us, O Lord, our only plea, Help us our lives keep clean. Serene and still the night comes on. Another day for school will dawn, Perchance, when night is o’er. Till then we ask a life of peace, Serenity that will not cease, A blessed calm in store. RO Pe CUR: LIPSCOMB, 1904 In 1904 a group of boys were glad to hear Brother David Lipscomb say: “Boys, if you will develop all that is good and honorable and never bring reproach upon it, you may wear my name as the name of your society.” Thus our motto: “To develop all that is good and honorable.” In 1914 five members went out seeking some recognition from the State. This resulted in obtaining a charter from the State. The par- ticular purpose for which this charter was wanted was to give us power to formulate, organize, and conduct a Literary Society designed to teach debating and oratory and to have contests in the same, to confer degrees and diplomas upon its members, and to accomplish other kindred objects and purposes of a literary nature. Victories have been ours in the past, and, we freee will be in the future, because our material is unsurpassable. In athletics we have won ninety per cent of the contests. Our challenges for various debates have not been accepted. In following the history of our old members, many of them have made preachers and teachers, while some have made lawyers and political men, all of whom are successful. Then, with our past record glittering over the sands of time and the summit of our motto mingling with the etherial waves and being echoed to heaven’s throne by the stars, we are not ashamed; but, with the cour- age of Demosthenes and the bravery of Napoleon and the faith of Abra- ham, we would say to all young men who may attend David Lipscomb College : “Come, be our brother, and let us march together on the upward flight.” = ey, Page One Hundred Twenty HEY HET ene THE DAVIDSON, HICKS GREENE CO.

S. W. Straus, President of the American Society for Thrift, said: “If you would learn a lesson in the constructive value of THRIFT, study the lives of our Presidents.” The early struggles of Abraham Lin- coln and the disadvantages under which, he became one of the greatest men of all time are known the world over. As a boy, Lincoln, “the rail- splitter,’ worked for ten years on his father’s farm, and it is said that all of his schooling amounted to only one year. Andrew Johnson came from a poor family in North Carolina, and as a boy was apprenticed for ten years to a tailor, during which time he taught himself to read and write. Warren G. Harding started his life by doing chores on a farm in Ohio. For several years he earned his live- lihood as a typesetter, school teacher, insurance agent, and newspaper re- porter. Calvin Coolidge’s first job was as chore boy on his father’s farm. He worked his way through college. His vacations were spent earning money. These are not new facts. Every schoolboy should know them. Every young man beginning a business ca- reer should be reminded of these splendid examples of obstacles over- come. The lives of most really successful men constitute our best lessons in THRIFT. GET THE THRIFT HABIT!
