One of the chief jjrivileges ■ of the Faculty is to be never satisfied! ' j Be that as it may, we should like to point out that since our Faculty recitals were so many and varied this year, we had to introduce joint programs ' in order |j to fit them all in, and every one seemed to like the innovation. Certain it is that the audiences were most gratifyingly big and enthusiastic, and indeed every program p was well worth liearing. I The children ' s work lias been splendid; tlieir many recitals ha e ain])ly proved [ just what patience antl good training will produce from the average small person. i Their department arrannei! a concert for Miss Alma Melius and Miss Margarethe | | .Morris, the first of a Young Artists ' Series which will be continued next season. ; The bi-monthly Thursday afternoon recitals liave been a source of great pride 1} to Director Pearson and his staff, and sufficient first class numbers were selected | j from these informal programs to make up four advanced e ' ening concerts. ], 1922 was a red letter year for the violiji department. Estelle Co er being the 1 first student to graduate in violin with a B. M. degree, ! j! From the big world of professional artists the College brought to Jacksonville ij Dumesnil, French piajiist ; Frances Ingram, contralto; Zoellner Quartette, Ime. il]! de Vere Sapio, soprano, and T. Tertiiis Noble, noted organist. || The college orchestra, the Madrigal and Glee Clubs gave concerts of (nuisual i interest, the Glee Club giving several programs out of town. jl Truly, this year has seen many changes; old teachers have gone, new teachers j! have come, but through it all we have kept the high ideals of the college, remembering , that ars scvera, magnum fjaitfiiii in.

The girls of the ' oman ' s College as a group had not yet grown up. They were willing to leave to their teachers tlie task of keeping their relations with one another moving along in the right channels. Then Dr. Harker and the teachers of these girls of the long ago saw that their daughters were growing up, and they decided to have tliem help solve their own problems. A College Council was organized and through this Council the girls helped advise; the council then was only an advisory l)ody. When everyone saw that the girls were really young women, capable of taking responsibilities upon themselves, a charter was obtained and the Students ' Association began its career. Today the Association is the center of the college life. Nor does it exist for its own members alone; this year it )iut on a dri ' e for the Student Friendshi]) Fund. Iti subscribing to this fund. I. W. C. linked hands with the colleges of the world to send hel}) to the less fortunate students in l ' ,,uro]ie. The Students ' Association celebrates its eighth birthday next Noxember. We wish it a long and prosperous life. 1928 - Forty-nine 1st Janitor: Wliat all (lis here rumpus ' bout? All ah don do is tote furn ' ture ovah dat gym.

W. C. It bad its birtli in April. 1921. when John Elder. Field Seeretary for tlie movement, made this college his headquarters, hile lie was here four girls signed declaration cards, and a hand leader was chosen. From th.at time on the Student Volunteers liave had a ery real place among the College organizations. A Student Volunteer assumes tliree ' ery distinctive obligations if she is to realize her purpose, — first, to declare; second, to prepare, and third, to share her life purpose. A Student Volunteer is first of all an individual Christian Student, who. belie ing it to be the will of God, has definitely decided to become a foreign missionary. She declares this to be a life purpose by signing the declaration of tlie Student Volunteer movement for Foreign Missions, and sends her card to the headquarters of the T rovenient.

So well did these take that se ' enteen new members joined our ranks, when gi ' en the ojDportunity to pro e their dramatic ability. With our forces so increased, we w ill present I ' Muiander A ' alk ' on the camjjus. June 8. I !! Indiana Club The girls of Indiana, although good Hoosiers, realized that in colleges for women, Indiana could not comjjete with other states. They looked to the North, to the East, to the South, and to the West, but they were not satisfied with the results of their search. Then, closer home, the Illinois Woman ' s College, with its stately elms, traditions, and ideals, beckoned to them and they answered the call. Now the yellow and the blue is forever enshrined in their hearts, and tlie insjnration of the college is bringing them to a better and nobler life, imselfish and for the service of others. 1923 Sixty-two I: 1923 - Sixty-four 5 I L L I W O C O C THE COLLEGE GREETINGS THE STAFF Kditoi-in-Chief Ada Clotfelter Associate Editor Hazel Dell Margai-et Fowler Assistant Editors - - Eleanor Sanford Art Editor - .....Jennie Lacy Business Manager Lura Hurt I Flo Dikeman Assistant Business Managers Frances Paulding Eaculty Adviser Miss Mary Johnston The College GreeLings has not always lieen tlie slim little boolvlet that slides under your door eaeli month.

Later tlie publication was turned over to tlie Senior class, and still later, it became an all- college afi ' air. As vou know it. it is a fearful and wonderful mixture — stories. ' erse. essays, bulletin and news notes. Since the College is growing and our lines of interest are broadening, we are hoping for anotlier cliange. Sometime in a roseate and eiled future, we may see our dream come true — a news slieet ap[)earing regularly in our best journalistic style, and tlie College Greetings a purely literary magazine, with copy that will make Harpers and tlie Atlantic fairly green with envy. The Greetings Extra, whit ' h greets the new girls each September, is a stc]) in that direction — one year it was published alternatelj ' with the Greetings till June. But the College Greetings has a ])otential]y wonderfid future — as an expression of student activities and student thinking, as a -ital bond between What Has Been, What Is. and What Will Be. And to this end. we wisli it well. 1923 - Sixty -five THE ILLIWOCO THE STAFF Ed ' itor-in-Chief Helena I eteher Associate Editor Elson Pires Assistant K Htoi Suzanne Rinehart Business Manager Assistant Business Manar ers.

We pray thy sails may never dip. The Endowment Ship was formally launehed on the evening of April 5. It made an impressive pieture as it slow ly swung down the Ways of Hope into Defic it Eay and out upon its Campaign Voyage. On the evening of its launehing it was earried out at Higli Tide of Student Zeal and in a Wave of Ecstacy was borne out on Solieitous Sea. On the first day out. howexer. it met with a Storm of Enthusiasm and was Hailed with Delight. This, instead of impeding its progress as would have lieen the ease in most storms, only tended to fill its sails with the Winds of Progress, and it soon reaehed tlie Friendly Islands. On the Sabbath the good ship lay o er at the Straits of Sunda. in order to gi ' e the erew and passengers a little time of respite. In leaving Tyme Harbor it went aground on the SHOALS OF PROCRASTINATION, but successfully held its own against the low TIDE of INDIP ' FERENCE, and was earried over this barrier by the incoming TIDE of HOPE. In due time it reaehed the LAND of MILLIONS of DOLLARS, tarried there a short time, took on as much of the total cargo as it was thought safe to transport in such uncertain weather, and started on its return voyage which was accomplished in record time considering the season. A REIGN of JOY followed immediately upon its arri al at the home port. The good shi]) Eiulowmcnt came home. From o ' er the bounding main, Stopped a while to unload her wealth, And then was off again. The Endowment has been chartered for several more voyages, all to the LAND of MILLIONS of DOLLARS, some to be by the route of STUDENTS and FAC- ULTY and some via ALUMNAE and FRIENDS. The Endowment has proved her- self a very seaworthy craft, and we are confident that all our faith in her ability to bring back tlie treasure to us is not misplaced. - 1928- Eighty-eight :ji L L I w o c Atkletic Association THE ATHLETIC BOARD President Margaret Hamilton J ' ice President Dorothy Dean Secretary Avis Murpky Treasurer Josephine Craig Senior Representative Jane Muse Junior Representative Eleanor Jane Dinsmore Sophomore Representative Hariette Munson Freshman Representative.. .Martha Logan Faculti) Advisor Miss Nellie Bovd ATHLETIC HONORS 1920- 1921 Basket Ball Shield Class of 1923 Hockey Class of 1923 Tennis Cup Veriel Black, ' 21 Seal Ring Margaret Hamilton THildreth Ashwood ggalg J Mary Ellison V Margaret Hamilton 1921- 1922 Hockey Class of 1922 Basket Ball Class of 1925 - 1923 - Ninety-one N ' nety-two 1 L L I v o c o 5 spring Fever The lesson was on Russia — Great land and interesting — But tlie sun shone bright on the out of doors And I heard a cardinal sing.

I AA ' O C O %■ Saturday iiigl :ht ! The liead of llir tal)k ' folded her na])kin, the group of diners waited with almost e ident im])atience wliile Helen gulped down a last sip of water, and then they trotted briskly out of the dormitory dining room. In the front hall were many groujis debating the best way of using the few preeious hours left of Sat- urday, — a week of work behind, tlie week of work ahead separated by the comfort- able distance of one day, — and a spring intoxicant in the air. Helen, IMarg, and Esther drifted together very naturally. Over two years of working and thinking, ser ing and sinning together had given them a feeling of blood kinsliip. They corrected each other ' s faults, wore each other ' s clothes, and delighted in each other ' s successes. Pert little Esther, witli the light voice, was thinking out loud, as usual. How does it happen that there isn ' t a party or recital tonight. ' ' Must lie a mistake of the date committee. What shall we do.- I ' m perfectly aware that there ' s a history note- book in my desk that is howling for attention, but — Then good old Marg, (that tells you what kind of a girl sbe is,) interrupted, It ' s against my principles to study on Saturday night or to allow any of my friends to. Shall we be gloriously lazy and wash our hair and read something silly, or shall we give a party. — just a lettuce and salad dressing spread with maybe a chocolate roll, pro idcd that someone in the family has some cash. Suddenly Helen grasped their hands and pulled them down the corridor to- wards the library, nearly upsetting a group of faculty gathered in front of their mail box, M ' liich serves them for a social center as the post office serves the small town, and whose student coiniterpart is the package list. Come on. I see ] Iarion looking for me; she wants a committee meeting, and I won ' t bother with nominations tonight. Besides, here ' s an idea! Let ' s forget, just tonight that we ever came to college, — that we ever went to high school. We ' ll get .some all-day suckers, and some fairy tales out of the library, and maybe cut out paper dolls, or play house. Let ' s be — hids! When Helen had an insjjiration she had it hard, but it usually died in early youth. Being juvenile was great fun — for an hour. Then Helen, looking up from the pages of Alice in Wonderland, caught JNIarg consuming a Plershey instead of the prescribed sucker, while Esther had sto))ped searching a magazine for paper dolls and was reading one of its stcn-ies with a most sophisticated air. Helen tlirew down Alice hopelessly. It ' s no use. We ' re grown up past redemption. I thought I ' d be able to recall my old thrill at the Cheshire Cat and the White Rabbit. But first I found myself determining the psychology of the appeal to the impossible as found in fairy tales, and then analyzing the style. We ' re o er-ediicated. We can ' t get joy from sim] le things. 1923 One Hi iidred Three She siglied impressively, and gazed mournfully out of the window. I believe the materialists must be right. They say, you know that e ' erything is onl} Physics and Chemistry. I didn ' t want to think so. I thouglit tliat tliere were little spiritual things that couldn ' t be analyzed, things like the charm of ' Alice in Wonderland, ' But tonight has proved that e ' en that has fled with my youth. She faced them dramatically. But now I know that everything can be traced to little molecules and atoms and — those tilings inside of atoms — you know — electives, no, electrons. Why, Esther, do you know why I love you? Because through the process of nat- ural selection the race has acquired tlie instinct to love those who love them, and the instinct works on brain paths, and — and — the brain paths are made up of little cells, and the cells are made up of molecules and the molecules are made up of atoms and the atoms — Helen! shrieked Estlier. I tliink you are horrid! To analyze love! Tlierefore, went on Helen, triumphantly, it ' s Physics and Chemistry that makes me love you. Don ' t get excited. We must face facts bravely. That ' s educa- tion. Once I was afraid to take psychology because I didn ' t want to believe that dogs didn ' t have souls. And now — she gave a blase little shrug — Do people have souls? Helen! gasped poor, shocked Esther, I think you are heathenish ! No, I ' m just scientific, she replied. Scientific and disallusioned. Maybe a bit — hardened. A snicker from Marg wlio had been listening calmly. Helen looked offended. I ' m going to take this book back to the library, she announced, picking up the abandoned Alice. I ' ll get some brain food instead. As the door closed Esther plumped herself face downward on the bed. O, dear, she wailed, It ' s all right for you to laugh. You don ' t have to room with her. She crammed for exams in Psych., Biology, and Chem., all at the same time. That accounts for it. But think of ha ' ing everything you think and feel traced back to liydrogen and oxygen and such junk, till you feel like the Clock-work Man of Oz I Marg, is she losing her mind as well as her soul ? Now, Es, said wise Marg, calmly, you let me manage tliis; I ' ve been through the rank materialist stage myself, and know a sure cure. She ' ll be back in a few min- utes with a volume of pessimistic poetry and treat us with knowing condescension. She isn ' t crazy. She ' s just looking at life cross-eyed. I know my remedy will work. The room was ' acant when Helen returned, with a modern novel of tlie realistic school. She assumed a literary pose and plunged into tlie murlcy deptlis of the novel. Tlie door opened softly and Marg ' s head appeared. Her beaming smile faded as she saw Helen. Pardon; I was looking for Es. There ' s some devilment on foot. — but you wouldn ' t be interested. W hat. Tell me, please! insisted the strangely eager cynic. 1923 One Hundred Four 3 I L L I O C O g Wouldn ' t horv you with it. jNIarg replied. Soinetliing quite eliildisli. You ' re entirely too so])liistieated to enjoy it. And your marvelous powers of analysis would soon dissect the situation into sueh simple elements that it wouldn ' t be any fun. You don ' t know where Es is? Goodbye. Wait a minute! called Helen. I ' ll lielp you fiiul her. A few minutes later, down in the dark dining hall, queer shapes were crawling about on the floor under the tables. Stifled chuckles, bumped heads, and whispers of Give me the string. When the shapes disappeared every chair in the dining hall was firmly tied to the leg of a table. Homeward bound at midnight, they dodged from corridor to corridor, never missing a squeaky board, and finally fell into the room with a burst of giggles. They held their sides and chuckled and rocked with glee. Marge suddenly put on a long face. Helen, she said solenmly. why are vou mirtliful ? Please analyze. W hy do you grin? Physics or Chemistry, or both? Gollv. I don ' t know, cluukli ' d Helen. Guess I ' m just ha])py. ENDOV MENT Every year when spring rolls ' round. Endowment comes to call.

It was tliat Freshman who al- ways daslies to lier room after chapel to get her mail. At least that is what I think she goes after, for she is alwaj ' s dashing back and poking the button on fourtii in a vigorous manner and when I get to her floor, she bounces in with a letter in her hand. Now I don ' t like to accuse people falsely, that being against my principles, but that girl is surely intercepting her brother ' s letters, for she (being a girl) would not be likely to recei e mail addressed to ' Freddie, ' would she? However, I haven ' t men- tioned it to the dean, that also being against my principles. It is an interesting psychological study (apologies to Mrs. Weber) to note liow in four years of the broadening and cultural atmosphere of the Woman ' s College some of these Freshmen develop into something resembling civilized mortals. Just yester- day a Freshman was in a dreadful hurry to get to her room, and wanted me to come immediately to take her up. At the time I was engaged in accommodating two faculty members, who were discussing affairs of state, and I don ' t consider it diplo- matic to leave a faculty member at any time. Well, the Freshman poked and poked and called up in a voice anything but soft and ' low. Close the door! Now, in spite of the fact that I am onlj ' an elevator I have a keen sense of humor, and it was too funny for words to see the eyes of that Freshman enlarge when I presented liss Johnson to view. She ' ll be more patient after this, or walk. I would like to suggest to some of these girls that they should take more exer- cise, — a s]ilendid way to avert — er — extreme plumpness is to climb three or four flights of stairs. I am greatly overworked anyway. These girls have no considera- tion for a tired soul and when I am forced, in the intelligent care of my health, to refuse to perform my duty for a short time, they do not always show the Christian spirit, and sometimes make pointed remarks concerning my usefulness. They ought to remember that an ele ' ator is only human, but then. — I don ' t complain! The Sojihomores. too, come in for their share of cultural development. I ' ve noticed that they show more respect for their elders than do the Freshmen, which is always a commendable trait in the youthful. Woodson must have come from a large family. Several of his brothers were visiting the cdllege on larch seventh. One of them seemed especially enthusiastic about the walking al)ility of a certain ]Miss Lizzie. They were all musical, too — no wonder Voodson shines at recitals ! I suppose it would be too much to expect the Seniors ever to walk. I have made many extra trips for them, but I want to do all I can to help Dr. Marker get these girls educated. It ' s a dreadful responsibility! I rejoice a hundred times a day that I live in a state of single blessedness. — the care of so large a family sooner or later would lead to my remo ' al and at my age I wouldn ' t care to change my occu- pation. O, yes, and I must say a word for the .Juniors ! They ' re a hard working class (Continued on page 155.) 1923 — One Hundred Ten ENGACJED PLEASE ! 1 928 One Hundred Eleven Matanzas Dorothy, ex ' 22, and Grace, ex ' 2H. were sitting opposite eacli other in an at- tractive tea room on the Paeifie Coast, simply beaming at each other. Dorothy liad had one season of successfully directing plays and was starting out on another. Grace was traveling with a student company from the New England Conservatory of Music, whicli was giving a series of concerts over the United States, and of course each was delighted to find tliat they were to be in the same city together. Both had been talking as fast as possible when suddenly Grace stopped with a distressed look on her face. Why, Grace Elizabeth Styles, said Dorothy, whatever has happened. Did one of your precious fingers come out of joint, or wliat. ' ' Dorotiiy. do you know that this very minute the Juniors and Seniors are at ] Iatanzas ! Oli. do you remember the superglobschlopsus time we had the year we were there together? It makes my legs ache now to tliink of all the weary miles (it must have been ten, I ' m sure) that some of us walked to get the key to our cot- tage, only to find when we got back that they had unceremoniously pried open a wintlow. Do you remember that you Seniors came up to see us that night (we had a piano, too,) and liow we just knew that you were planning to raid the kitchen, so two or three of us trembling .huiiors kejjt watcli in the dark kitclien all e ening.- - and then, even when you did go liome we hadn ' t seen Margie or Marion, so we felt sure tliey were up to something. We searched the whole cottage from attic to base- ment (hyjjothetically speaking). ] Iy. we almost never got to bed. and then e ery time we heard a squeak we were sure that the Seniors had come. Well. broke in Dorotiiy. we certainly liad a spooky time going Imme through absolutely pitch black woods. Why. just think if any of us had strayed from the narrow path (it wasn ' t straight either) we never would have been found until day- light. You remember we were at ] Iarion ' s cottage and it sure was grand. Remem- ber that wonderful swing tliat goes way out o er the water Thrills, thrills, and more thrills!!! And Sunday morning and the chickens r Didn ' t we have a lime killing them? I never will forget how certain Juniors performed the ceremony. ]My but we did ha e gorgeous eats. Well. I ' d just like to know if you Seniors did have enougli eats? You were always trailing up our way about meal time, and my, you ' d eat like bears. Oh well, never mind, we know you had puff balls anyway. Some of you came up Sunday af- ternoon to invite us up in the evening and we happened to have some fire at the time, so we wanted to make our candy, — you know what a dreadful time we had getting enough dry wood to keep the fire going for more tlian fi e minutes at a time. Well, some of us religiously and industriously entertained you on the porch while some of the others were making the best chocolate fudge you didn ' t ever eat with maraschino cherries and everything in it. ' e were almost too full to eat any when we got back from your peachy marshmallow roast. Didn ' t we have a good time down there in that fine little nook? We all held hands coming back and we thought sure we had passed up our cottage, it took so long to get to it.

She assured ine of their wonderful ' alue in sav- ing time, energy, and thought, and sinee one of my purposes in coming to college was to find the easiest way to do things, I was for it. On JNIondaj ' night, said Freshman called upon me. having little faith in my Junior ability to accomplish anything alone, and together we made out a schedule. It was a beautiful piece of work. I really wanted to frame it and send it home so that the folks could hang it in the parlor to show callers what I was learning at college. Howe er. I restrained myself from this ( xliibition of jiride in my own achie enient and more modestly decided to follow it. The seven-thirty bell rang just then, and I started in to si udy History (per schedule). I was just becoming interested when there was a knock at the door. I ' d forgotten to put out an engaged sign. I hastily inserted in my schedule, Hang out ' do not disturb ' sign before beginning to study, and then called Come. The next half hour was spent in entertaining friends, who seemed to think there vas sometliing radically wrong with me when I told them that I had to study. Thirty minutes gone already. If I spent two hours on History it would be ten o ' clock, and I had to be in bed then. When was I to biush my teeth and bid my friends good- night? At nine o ' clock there came an apologetic tap. I ' m sorry to walk over your sign, but we just have to have a meeting. It isn ' t scheduled, I replied, I ha en ' t time for it. But finally, when she insisted that they liad to have me, I abandoned my sched- ule and went, — one does love to be indispensable. The meeting was over at 9:15. but I decided to go to bed at ten as I had planned, and alas for my good intention to arise at (i:20; I was oblivious to the world luitil my roommate awoke me at 7:10. I got down to breakfast with a frac- tion of a minute to spare. The first two hours were supposed to be devoted to Fatin, but since I had spent no time on education, and needed the eleven-thirty hour for History. I glanced o er my lesson then, thus crow dini; ' poor Pliny some, but then, he ' s used to it. From ten thirty to eleven thirtv I followed my schedule. — I had a class. After that I was becoming proud of my following ability when I hap- pened to look out of the window. One of those wonderfid days of spring ' s advance guard greeted me. and 1 fill. How did I know when I made out my schedule that it was going to be such a wontlerful day. ' ' I got back just in time for lunch, and my plan to study my History in the ten minutes before one-fifteen was thwarted by my inability to find my book. Hoping that my guardian angel would protect me, ] entered the History room bravely. AfTairs proceeded beautifully for me, the end of the hour a])proached, and I was just congratulating myself upon the inconsjiicuousness of my ignorance when — Name the ri ers emptying into the 15iack Sea. came straight at me. I took a chance: The Danube and the — er — ah — Amazon. The class grinned aloud, and, was I mistaken or was there a ghost of a smile upon Miss Lobdell ' s face. I realized that I had missed the mark, but I was re- lie ed when she passed on to the next girl. When the bell rang my hurried dash for the door was intercepted by Susan, may I see you a minute I obeyed in fear and trembling. I ' m afraid you are not spending enough time on your History. Have you ever tried following a schedule? 1923 One Hundred Sixteen X SEPTEMBER 1!). The avalanclif of trunks ami girls liegins. 20. Y.

I jiresume it would not be safe to say wliether the condition is pathological or otherwise. To some it seems that only a mind disturbed by a very serious ailment would ever conceive of so ruthlessly cutting off one of Nature ' s precious gifts. To others it is evidence of a lack of vanity and of a sensible mind. Although ori- ginally the number of persons in the first class was the greater, the latter class is growing steadily and many now believe that in time favor will become so prevalent that bobbed hair will no longer be only a fashion, but a well estab- lished custom. For a number of years it has been customary for small girls to wear their hair bobbed. Either the period of childliood is being extended a number of years, or tliose who desire to return to this custom have arrived at that period of life generally known as second childhood. Perhaps one reason that bobbed liair has been connected witli one or the other form of childhood is tliat it was originally the small, young-looking, cute girl who bobbed her hair. But a change has come about, and now it is not only the frivolous little person who bobs lier liair, but also the tall, lanky person, — even some of the Seniors have succumbed to tlie fasliion. It is only a step now until it will reach the faculty. Where is the prophet who can foresee when that step will be taken? Should it ever come to pass there will then be no doubt as to which way this sociological problem will be solved. 1923 One Hundred Tliiitynine We do (level()])ing and print- in ' .

Through it have come many of the engineering ideas that have made this an electrical America. The story of electrical development begins in theResearch Laboratories. Here the ruling spirit is one of knowledge — truth — rather than immediate practical results. In this manner are established new theories — tools for future use — which sooner or later find ready application. The great industries that cluster around Niagara Falls, the electrically driven battleships, the trolley cars and electrified railwaysthat carry millions, the lamps that glow in homes and streets, the householdconveniencesthathaverelieved women of drudgery, the labor-saving elec- trical tools of factories, all owe their ex- istence, partly at least, totheco-ordinated efforts of the thousands who daily stream through this gateway.

And speaking of the Illiwoco, Billie Betcher has made three trips to lier room in tlie last ten minutes. If it wasn ' t against my principles to offer advice unsolicited, I should like to suggest that the editor of the Illiwoco have her room by the Illiwoco office. It would be easier on lier nerves at any rate, for I am no longer young and the responsibilities ;uid burdens of my office have broken a once rugged constitution. Now I have the rheumatism, which causes my joints and cables to pro- test audibly. At these times Billie makes insinuating remarks concerning me, — but then, I forgive her because of her youth, and make no complaint, that again being a matter of principle with me. 1923 One Hundred Fiftyfive I L I.

The Sophomore Class is publishing it, and it is going to be a good one. Cinnamon rolls will be in it. We wouldn ' t have a cook book without them. We expect to clear at least three hundred dollars from it for Endowment this year. And then the book will gradually become an I. W. C. institution and pass down through the generations and become an Endowment, itself. Did you hear about our winning the hockey tourna- ment? — Yes, we did.

We exercise in advance our artist ' s privilege of temperament. We meet as we please, where we please. We write as we please, when we please. We think as we please, and oh, delightful privilege, we say what we please, if we please. We border on the Bohemian. We are the ladies of the Quill, a toy which we wield with varying success, being sometimes cast into the most terrible of artistic gloom by failure, sometimes raised to the seventh heaven of artistic delight by accomplishment. Our toy, however, gives us great pleasure and we continue its use with but small concern for the world ' s opinion. What is the world ' s opinion? We admire each other. We have a variety of tastes. -Golf, strong tea, Edna St. Vin- cent Millay, Bernard Shaw, advanced social thinking are among our hobbies.

It seems to be necessary for us to t say something about ourselves on this page, and we want to do it gracefully and with proper humility ; we wish to phrase correctly the customary polite prophecy of the coming Golden Age when Greetings will be a literary paragon, bought by all, read by all. written by all the gifted. In rummaging through these ancient volumes of the annual we find many interesting things about the Greetings. It was eighteen year ' s old when the first Illiwoco was published (1915), for the alumnae started the Greetings in 1897. The class of 1905 took it over as seniors, and in 1909 it became a true all-college paper, as it is today. It is further recorded that the office equip- ment was the gift of the staff of 1912, while 1911 made a Con- stitution. The fates of these two gifts are a sad object lesson in the impermanencv of ideals, for the Constitution has mysteriously vanished, while Greetings goes blithely and perhaps illegally on. still profiting by the substantial office equipment of 1912. We continue our search through the records of the past years. The 1921 Illiwoco calls Greetings the best of conversationalists . Perhaps so. Last year ' s book says that the magazine is a fearful and wonderful mixture . True enough, but— here we are, way back in 1917— however gracious and delightful a task the editing of the college paper may be, it is not an easy one . Just what we wanted to say, so why try to say it ourselves ? But because one can ' t let others do all the talking, we add, if you ' ve liked this year ' s Greetings, we ' re glad; if you haven ' t., we ' re sad; but either way we ' re not sorry we tried.

Snaps Katherine Yanseck Elizabeth Moore Adviser Miss Whitmer Each Illiwoco Staff lias the honor of publishing a book which is one of the four which stand as milestones in every college stu- dent ' s life. They also have the pleasure of recognizing in their finished publication, every little comma and dash as an old, old friend. The acquaintance is often rather hard to make, but once made it is very pleasant. The Staff of the 1923 Illiwoco has striven nobly. We do hope our efforts will find some small favor. 19 Students ' Association At the present time it is hard to imagine how the poor Faculty of I. W. C. got any rest in the past. The student ' s problems were all solved by them, as there was no Students ' Association. Eight years ago the authorities of the college de- cided to let the students govern themselves, and solve their own problems. Thus a College Council was or- ganized, which was only an advisory body. The girls proved to be capable and dependable, as soon as a charter was granted, and the Students ' Association be- came what it is today. Within the last year a further step has been taken. The Honor System has been adopted, and though in its infancy, it already promises a successful future. 51 Y. W. C. A. Cabinet President Vice President Secretary Treasurer Under-grad. Representative .

There the ideas are produced for the reception, the Sunday afternoon meetings, World-Fellowship classes, and Japanese Bazaars.

Members of the old H. S. sorority crowded around Virginia with beaucoup de congratulations. The credit is really due the Home Ec. Club at the Woman ' s College. Girls, I wish you could all belong — that Spring Review would have floored you. Dainty French maids would ihave served you in a moonlit colonial garden. If you had seen the Style Show, you would have said that ' Lady Duff-Gordon created those things. Tired work-a-day people watched dancers and mermaids and forgot the world. (Today ' s luncheon reminds me of those dear Home Ec. days.) The smiles of the Endowment Committee were gorgeous when we handed them our check. 55 OFFICERS President Donnabel Keys Vice President Alma Blodget Secretary .... Ethel Morris Treasurer Charlotte Rogers 56 Dramatic Club Dearest Jude: At last it ' s all over, and I turn the crank letting- the curtain fall, with a sigh, half of relief and half of sorrow. You know our Dramatic Club was not very large at the beginning of the year, for we lost some wonderful material when last year ' s Seniors left. What we lack in quantity, however, we have made up in quality. We began this evening ' s festivities with The Rising of the Moon , and the fame of the club rose with that moon, Judy, for Joe as the Raggedy Man and Vick as the sergeant were wonderful. The stage looked so spooky, I was scared to death up there in that organ loft. The next one was quite different. Donnabel Keyes (the wooden-legged sailor of Pomander Walk ) was wooden all over this time — a mechanical doll owned by two spinster ladies. We almost died laughing. Mechanical Jane was the name of this play. For The Florist ' s Shop the stage was beautiful. Kay ' s part as Maude will make us all remember the little things from now on. Oh — I almost forgot. You ought to see some of the dramatic Freshmen. If you hear of another Susan Glaspell, don ' t be surprised. You ' ve got to come for our spring play — The Charm School . It will make all Jacksonville gasp. Here ' s a secret — the next time you hear of us. we may be The Illiwoco Players . With which I close Dramatically yours, D. C. 57 Athletic Association Chee-Hee ! for this Association. Take away all the pep, health, fun-loving spirit, and you would have some idea of I. W. C. without it. What is the first real, snappy pep-raiser of the year? The Thanksgiving hockey game, of course. On that grav damp morning everybody (even the Southern girls and Miss Johnston) sallies forth to the muddy field of combat. Who can miss the spook frolic in the gym on Hal- lowe ' en? Everything is represented, from the dancing- girl to Sis Hopkins. Cider flows freely, and good humor is the honored guest of that evening. Next the basketball season is on, and class spirit is at white heat. The teams are chosen, trained, and the great tournament is played. Voices grow hoarse and fail. Nothing matters except that the championship goes rightly. We might talk indefinitely of the gay times and the deeper feelings which the Association fosters. We know its value, so — Yea, Athletics! Just a minute— Yea, Aesthetics! Our May Day dances might well fit into Shakespeare ' s Mid-Summer Night ' s Dream . .-)! 60 61 Orchestra A casual passerby on a Tuesday evening in October might well imagine that the school orchestra were struggling with a composition of the Polytonic kind; wherein two unrelated keys are heard simultaneously. Inquiry will elicit the much simpler explanation that one of the sections, forgetting to tune, had temporarily per- verted the lovely harmonies of a Haydn or a Schubert symphony into a hair-raising dischord of the French Sixth . The second semester sees great improvement. Order has come into the sec tions, correct pitch is a matter of course, and — wonder of wonders — we look at the baton. At the end of the year we present a correctly executed program with no dischords and no false en- tries to disturb the audience. No feet tap the floor. The conductor ' s stick, alone, keeps the tempo. In one word, we have learned the meaning of ensemble . Is that not enough in itself? Is it not worth more than a movie or an elaborate feast? Tke Glee Club Fredericka Balch Audrey King Gertrude Foster The Glee Club this year has been under the able direction of Mme. Colard. The formal concert was given March nineteenth. It was divided into two ensemble groups and two dramatic features; the first being- Grieg ' s Cloister Gate , and the second, Cameos of Love , (a fantasy). The lines of this latter were the work of Miss Janette Powell. The entire programme was very cordially received. President Treasurer Secretary The Madrigal Club President Mary Lois Clark Secretary-Treasurer Velma Kitchell The Madrigal Club is under the direction of Mrs. Palmiter-Forrest. Its membership is limited to the students who are taking private vocal work. The annual concert was given in April and was a success in every way. The standards of this club are of the highest and the result is always artistic. 64 Ukulele Circle President . Vice President . Business Manager Director .

Secretary-Treasurer Sarita Jones Eva Gertrude Hodgens Agnes Davis Mary Thomson Gladvs Madden Mary Thomson Gladys Madden Dorothy Mae Smith Edythe Hall Grayee Rexroat Harriet Munson The Life Service Group is an important though comparatively small organization at I. W. C. It originated in April, 1921, under the auspices of John Elder, the Field Secretary for the movement. This organization includes both Student Volunteers and the Life Ser- vice members. A student Volunteer is one who has definitely decided to become a foreign missionary, whereas a Life Service member is one who has planned to render full time service either at home or abroad. This year the group has been unusually influential in that it brought to Jacksonville the Annual Convention of the Student Volunteers of cen- tral and southern Illinois. 70 ff. i Inter-Society Council Society Presidents Miss Meadows Miss Smith Miss Betcher Miss Gowdy Associate Members Faculty Adviser Miss Austin, Dean 7 1 Belles Lettres Hie vitae activae preparamus.

And the absence of this mood is as characteristic of the sex as the presence of all the others. The mood we speak of is seriousness. We have him kittenish as in the all my love and two ounces over scintillation; we have him facetious as in Yours til canaries sing- bass and Yours as never B4 selections, trying to impress the sweet girl student with his knowledge of ornithology and chemistry; we have him coquettish as in Always , leaving the poor girl to wonder Always WHAT? ; we have him in guise of romantic son of Spain, sighing breezily in the dusk Buenas noches ; we have him modern and sophisticated, reading Harold in the Tribune; we even have him as a right down deceiver with his All my love , his Forever yours , his Your own. The only words which struck us as ringing true were those at the right center — as ever, hastily yours . Probably this was a slip, the real intention of the writer having been as ever, wasting- ly , to convey the impression that he was pining away from loneliness. Fate, however, steps in occasionally and corrects such things and it was by this means that the above truth was obtained. As ever, hastily! A most illuminating statement! The absence of seriousness is not to be wondered at — not because the receivers of the letters are unworthy of seriousness, but because of a vein of skittishness which runs throughout the general masculine makeup. Man ' s chief characteristic is fickleness. Only some half dozen have ever lacked it. All men wdio have not been fickle have become historical figures. Abelard is the only one we have much faith in, and occasionally we wonder about him. Heloise was such an unsuspecting person. This brings us back to generalities. All women are unsus- pecting. Full half of us believe what men say to us. But this is a mistake. The only way to combat a line is to hand one. Ah, my dears, the jolly old instinct of self-preservation. !)S Quoting from that hook, Perfect Behavior , by our friend Donald Ogden Stuart, we here give a few hints on introductions and conversations. When introducing two people, neither of whose names you can remember, it is usually done by saying very quickly to one of the parties — I wish to present Miss Unkunkun . Say the last ' unk ' so that it sounds like any name from Ah to Zink. You might even sneeze violently. Of course, in nine cases out of ten, one of the two people will at once say, I didn ' t get the name . At this you must laugh Ha! Ha! Ha! in a carefree manner, saying at the same time, Well, well, well — so you didn ' t get the name— you didn ' t get the name — well, well . If the man still persists in wishing to know whom it is he is being introduced to, the best procedure is simply braining him on the spot with a club or a convenient slab of paving stone. Your conversation should be planned somewhat in advance, select some topic in which you think your friend will be interested, such as, for example, the removal of tonsils and adenoids. Read up on the subject. Find out, for example, how many people had tonsils removed in May, June, July. Contrast this with the same months in 1890, 1895, and 1900. Learn two or three amusing anecdotes about adenoids. Consult Bartlett ' s Familiar Quotations for appropriate verses dealing with tonsils. Above all. take time to become familiar with the Harvard Classics. i £ Judge: Guilty, or not guilty? Woodson: Not guilty, sah. Judge: Have you ever been in jail before?
