Frances is a child of the Fields Born on the twelFth of February She is accessed with Friendliness With all her fellow-beings. Freshly Fantastic, Flatteringly Faithful. Mr. Lyle Dale Anderson comes directly to us from College. He says of himself: 1 was born one day in the fall—somewhere near the opening of the twentieth century and a little over forty years after the close of the Great Civil War. Like all other kids (horrors), 1 attended grade and High School, finishing at Coon Rapids, Iowa in the year of our Lord Nineteen Hundred and Twenty. Four years later I graduated from Penn College, Oskoloosa, Iowa, with a B. A. degree. In Penn College, Mr. Anderson took a quite active part in Athletics, being Captain of the track team in '24, hence his successful career here as Coach. Under his guidance our teams have already won honors in Football and Basketball, and we have great hopes for our track team this year. He was a Man of Honor, Of Noble and Generous Nature.”—Longfellow. Miss Anna McMorris was born at Eleanor, Illinois in 190?. She grew up, attending grade and High School in 1918. She then attended Monmouth College, where she was a member of the Amateur Belles Lettres Literary Society. She was graduated in June 1923 with an A. B. degree. From there she came directly to Manlius as a teacher of Science. She has been with us two short years, helping us over our troubles and giving us Comfort or Command, according to the particular occasion. Her home address is Alexis, Illinois, Route No. 4. Mr. Gene Newburn comes to us as an instructor in Agriculture. He was born at Hoopeston, Illinois, in Vermillion County, and about one hundred miles south of old Chicago. As a lad he attended a little country school near Hoopeston. He was graduated from the Hoopeston High School in 1912. He served fifteen months in the army during the world's war. At the close of the war he took a short agricultural course at Purdue College. Then he entered the Illinois State University from which he was graduated in 1923 with a B. S. degree. Mr. Newburn came here in the fall of 1923 and has served this school most faithfully for the past two years. The Senior Classes of both '24 and '25 have a great deal to thank him for. He has been of unfailing help in the production of our annuals and any praise or honor that may be forthcoming is due largely to him. His understanding and advice have guided us over untrodden paths where our inexperience would have spelled failure. Thanks to him. “Thy nights shall be filled with music And the cares that infest the day Shall fold their tents, like the Arabs And as silently steal away. —Browning. —M. G. G.
