4 JUNm xtf Dedication To show the deep regard in which we hold that worker for the best interests of Montana State College Professor William Duand Tollman we dedicate this volume of the Montanan to him Foreword and Greetin X preparing this, the seventh volume of the Montanan, the staff lias endeavored to attain several ideals. First it has endeavored to give an accurate history of the joys and the sorrows, of the defeats and the victories and. in short of everything of interest that has happened on the hill during the past year of the existence of the college. Second, it has endeavored to make a book that will bring pleasure and happy memories to the present and old students of the institution. It further hopes that this volume may perhaps bring others to our Alma Mater that they may share these joys and pleasures with us. The volume is not perfect—we had hoped to make it the best ever, now we only hope it will not be judged the worst. And we do hope that it will fulfill to some extent what has been so ardently hoped for it, by THE STAFF. Illaekmore Lake.

The Sophomore’s Side of the Story After a wonderful record in the Freshman year, the class of T5 returned to school last fall and immediately began the initiation of the Freshmen into the mysteries of a college education. Our first stunt was to introduce to the girls of the dormitory the boys of the class of ’16 in an original minstrel show written especially for the occasion by the play-writers of our class. A few weeks later the ’15’s huskies easily walked away with the tug-of-war: this being the second time that we have won this event. We lost the annual debate, but we felt that the Freshmen must be given something to write about so we did not complain. In athletics the class of ’15 has always been well represented. We have had men on all of the first teams of the institution. Due to the fact that three of our men were on the basketball team we were unable to win the class series and had to be contented with defeating the Freshmen. So far we have made an enviable record and even greater deeds await us in the future. R. T. K.. ’15. Forty-eight Tracy Abell. Agriculture. Otto Batch. Agriculture. Hazel Coffey. Home Science.

MILBURN - - Vice-President VEDA FERGUSON - - Secretary-Treasurer Colors: Yale Blue and White. Motto: “No matter how hard it rains, the water is always soft.” ALEXANDER CHRISTIE, President As told by a Freshman If one were to report on the activities of the Freshman class it would be necessary to tell of the activities of the school in general. The Freshmen are represented by some one or more of their number in every activity that exists in the college. They were well represented in athletics. In football they had four men on the regular team and one substitute player. More men turned out from the Freshman class for this king of sports than from any other class. It is due to the fact that so many of the Freshman huskies were out for football and could not enter into the tug of war contest and class scraps that they lost to the Sophomores. In basketball the Freshmen were also well represented on the regular team. In the class basketball series they tied the Sophomores and the Seniors for second place with a percentage of .33. The Freshmen not only excel in athletics but also intellectually having defeated the Sophomores in debate by a unanimous decision. They also hold a good record in their class standing having lost but three of their members at the semester finals. A. C.. ’16. Mollie J. Allen Maud Alexander Alberta Borthwick Evelyn Boyle Lula M.

Is a “shark” at pulling down high grades but has so many good qualities that this don’t count greatly against him.

Those enrolling in it must have completed an eighth grade education or its equivalent. Those having completed high school are not urged to take this course, but it offers much of value to those desiring to get a grasp of home science in a short time especially if unable to take a long course. The members enrolled in the work this year joined with the School of Agriculture and together with them have held several parties, all of which have been most enjoyable and have added much to the social life of those taking cither course Sixty-four Special Short Courses Along with the regular courses offered at the college are a number of short courses of about a week’s duration. These courses are given during the week called Farmer’s Week, and attract a large number of people from all parts of the state. This year in addition to the courses offered by the college, seven in number, several farmers’ organizations held meetings on the Hill. These proved an added drawing card for the week. The meetings extended from January 22nd to January 31st. and upwards of two hundred people attended some part of them. Besides the members of the college faculty a number of prominent speakers with national reputations made addresses and a number of meetings of general public interest were held and thrown open to all. In the course eighty or more lectures were given and were divided between the following divisions: home science, horticulture and biology, beekeeping, animal husbandry, veterinary science, farm management and road building. These courses were composed of lectures and demonstrations and were so arranged that any person taking any one course could get all of the lectures and work offered in that particular course, although it was impossible to arrange things so they could attend all of the lectures given during the week. During the afternoon and evening, meetings of general interest were held at which the more prominent speakers made talks. These general meetings were arranged so that on each day some particular topic would be taken up. The program by days follows: Wednesday, January 22, was Horticultural day: The Montana Horticultural Club held meetings. Talks were given by a large number of practical orchardists of the state and in the evening an illustrated lecture on the Lewis and Clarke expedition through Montana was the principal feature. Music by students of the college was another feature of the evening. Thursday was Good Roads day and the State Grange held a number of meetings. Among the speakers were J. H. Durston and Hon. Oliver Wilson, master of the National Grange. Friday was Co-operation day. Interesting addresses were made by Hon. Perry G. Holden, the famous agricultural philosopher of Iowa. Hon. L. R. Alderman, state superintendent of Oregon, and one of the ablest men in this position in the United States, and O. C. Gregg, one of the best known men in farmer’s institute work in the United States. Saturday was Rural School day and one of the leading features of the day was an address by President J. H. Worst of North Dakota Agricultural college. Sunday was Country Church day. The program was held in one of the churches of the city. Monday was Better Seed day. The leading addresses were made by A. E. Chamberlain, formerly director of Farmer’s Institutes in Minnesota, and P. G. Holden. Music was furnished that evening by the college glee clubs and was much appreciated. Tuesday was devoted to farm homes and was largely filled with topics of interest to the women present. Among the speakers were Mrs. Mary Deem of the Valley City Normal School of North Dakota; Mrs. Alice Peloubet Norton of the University of Chicago, and Joseph E. Wing, one of the best known travelers and agricultural writers in the United States. During the evening the college orchestra furnished music, this being their first appearance. Wednesday was Recreation and Health day and Thursday was Dairy day. A number of prominent speakers took part in the meetings on these two days and the band assisted in the entertainment. Professor Cooley had general charge of the Country Life conventions and Professor Alfred Atkinson had charge of the courses offered by the college. This is the first year that anything of this magnitude has been attempted and it will undoubtedly be a regular part of the year’s program from now on as this farmer’s week was most successful.

The letter winners of the college may now meet and talk over old war stories of how the trick was turned on the Varsity or how the ‘U’’ rubbed the mud in our faces or got a basket more than we intended they should. It is the intention that a feed be given each spring and plans made for the coming year in athletics. Through this club the entertainment of visiting teams can be handled and the lighter questions in athletics be answered. The 1914 Montanan hopes for the greatest success and the highest future for this newest organization. Seventy-one J. EDWARD HODGSKISS Foot hall Co )to in. •‘Bing” came back. After three years on the college team he took a Post Course to play his fourth year and captain the 1912 team. Seventy-two BROOKE HARTMAN Bushel bat I Capla in. Captain Hartman commanded the perfect confidence of his team and at all times played a sterling game at either forward or guard. Xcvenly-three GEORGE Y. BLINN Track Captain. Besides being a constant point winner, Biinn has that natural ability of putting the fight in every man on the squad. The 1912 track victory was due to that Irish fighting spirit. Seventy-four GEORGE M. GOSMA.N IJascbaU Captain. Like the field the game is played on. Gosman is a rare gem. The team's good is never hampered by a desire for individual glory. Seventy-five 1 E. A. DOCKSTADER Director of Athletics. Coming from Colgate University ‘‘Doc’' lias given us the best that is in him. Conscientious, consistent and a hard worker. Seventy-six Season of 1912 The practice season opened at the State College with optimism on all sides. The call for candidates brought out six of last year’s team. J. E. Hodgs-kiss. Truitt. Hartman. Xoble. V. S. Connors, and Grimes, and besides these men to build a team about, were such men as Christie. MacDougal, and Osenbrug of the Butte High School. Comer of Billings High School.Maddox of Kansas Wesleyan, and Heagrey and Carr of the Gallatin team. Things never looked brighter and enthusiasm was never higher with this able material and “Doc” Dockstader on the job for his second season. Never did a squad start practice with better support. Then things started to the bad. Truitt, last year’s guard, was ruled out on account of lack of credits and Osenbrug went on the bench with a bad leg. Yet work never slackened and when the team met the university on our home field the whole college and city turned out. It was a game fight that the boys put up and. though defeated by a single touchdown and goal kick, it was a fight from start to finish with the blue and gold playing in the game every minute of the time. There was no one or two men whose playing stood out above the work of the team; they all fought like demons. The result of the return game on the university’s field told a different story. The gold and blue went down to a 37 to 3 defeat with all the subs in the lineup before the game ended. Carr succeeded in boosting the pigskin over front placement for our only score. Again we are looking forward to next season with the same hopes that some day we can slip one over on our old rivals as in the days of old. J. EDWARD HODGSKISS. Captain and left tackle. At the close of the 1911 season “Bing” was elected captain of the 1912 squad and he returned to M. S. C. last fall for post graduate work in order that he might lead the blue and gold on the gridiron. He worked hard and conscientiously with the team and was himself a tower of strength in the line. Montana tackles were exceptionally strong last season but ‘‘Bing” was the equal of any in the State. His place will be hard to till next fall. WALTER W. GRIMES. Quarterback. In 1911 Walt played a good strong game at quarter whenever he got into the lineup. Last fall he came back with more “beef” and plenty of fight. His handicap in weight was made up in his ability to run the team and his work as safety man was good. 1 n the manipulation of the forward pass Grimes was strong and at all times picked out the weak places and hit them at the right time. ALEXANDER CHRISTIE, Left end. In Christie. M. S. C. had one of the best ends in Montana. Hailing from the Butte High School where he received his preliminary training. Alex entered Montana State as a freshman last fall and was immediately assigned a position on the team. Either on the offense or defense he was a valuable man but his defensive work shone most prominently. Sure, hard tackling and speed in getting under punts were his chief virtues. Seventy-eiyht EDWARD G. XOBLE, Right tackle. After a season at center, which lie played during his freshman year. Ed was shifted to tackle and proceeded to play the same sterling game as he did the previous season. A combination of speed, shiftnesss and aggressiveness made him a capable man for the position. Although playing against some of the best men in Montana in that position. Ed was at all times equal to the task and could be depended upon at all times to meet the unexpected. Noble was elected captain of the 1913 team at the close of the season which insures a capable, energentic and determined leader for the Blue and the Gold next fall. WILLIAM HEAGXEY. Right end. As a running mate for Christie. M. S. C. had in Heag-ney another end which the equal of any in the state. Bill had played a stellar game for the Gallatin High and the position which he won was not a new one to him. His versitile attack and his strong defensive playing made him an excellent man under all conditions. Bill’s one ambition was to beat the Varsity and with three years yet to play he can be depended upon to do his share in accomplishing that end. GEORGE M. GOSMAX. Left halfback. After a triumphal season on the basketball team, Gossy determined to extend his conquests to football and proceded to grab a job as halfback. His playing through the season stamped him as a speedy, heady and consistent backfield man. While not as valuable in advancing the ball as some of his team-mates. “Ole” showed his worth by his clever and skillful handling of the ball in passes. Seve tty-ui� n — WILLIAM MADDOX, Right halfback. After a year on the Kansas Wesleyan squad, Bill decided to try his fortunes at M. S. C. and his work in the backficld stamped him as one of the best ground-gainers for the Blue and Gold. Around end or off tackle he seldom failed to advance the ball and when once fairly under way he was a hard man to stop. With two more years to play Maddox should devolep into one of the best halfbacks in the state. WILLIAM HODGSKISS. Right guard. After two years on the scrubs. Bill landed a regular position on the team last fall. His weight made him a valuable man on the line and he was in the game every minute doing his best for M. S. C. Bill is still improving and with another year to play he will undoubtedly be one of the best men on Montana State’s line. W. BROOKE HARTMAN. Tackle. Playing tackle or end with equal ability. Brooke was used as a utility linesman on the 1912 aggregation. He was one of the smallest linesmen in the state, but size is not all as some of his opponents can testify, as his shifty and aggressive playing kept many a. heavier man continually watching him. Brooke leaves M. S. C. this year and in him the college looses a sterling gridiron warrior. Eight) MYRON L. CARR. Fullback. Another product of the Gallatin High. Carr came to M. S. C. with the reputation of being one of the best high school fullbacks in the state. His work on the college team fully upheld all previous reports, for he played a marvelous game for the Blue and Gold. When called upon, he seldom failed to carry the ball for a gain and his trusty toe scored the only-points for M. S. C. in the second Varsity' game. Carr is another man to whom the college will pin her faith next fall. Y. S. CONNOR. Halfback. Built along lines that suggest his nickname. “Pug he was the best ground gaining back on the team. He was an exceedingly hard man to stop and was never down until buried under an avalanche of players. Ilis defensive work was not quite as strong as when carrying the ball, but he was always in the game working his best. Pug has three years yet to play and in that time there is every reason to believe that he will develop into one of the best backs that ever played for the college. WILLARD E. ATKINS, Quarterback. The “Atom.” for such he was. weighing only one hundred and twenty-seven pounds, could play the game with any man on the team. He was absolutely fearless in his plays and was ready to take any sort of a chance to aid his team. He helped to instill this spirit in the team and when things were going badly he could be seen fighting the hardest and “quit” was not in his vocabularly. Eighty-one WILLIAM PINK, Center. Graduating from the subs where he played the year before. Pink filled a regular position on the eleven last fall. His work throughout the season was consistent. His passing of the ball was good and he was a cajiable man on the defensive. He still has several years to play which secures a valuable linesman for the college. ALBERT OSEXBRUG. Guard. Osenbrug entered school last fall and won a position at guard, where he played for half the season, being forced to quit during the latter part owing to an injury. He showed his ability as a player in the game with the varsity by his magnificent work on the defensive. He will be back again next fall ready to take up his sterling work on the line. VICTOR COTXER. End. •‘Cot” donned football togs and picked out end as the position most suited to his ability. However, unexpected competition for these positions prevented Vic.” from landing a regular berth. The manner in which he handled the forward pass made him a valuable man and with a year’s experience, look out for “Cot.” this fall. liUjhty-tvro A. S. CONNOR, Guard. Connor showed enough last fall to make him a substitute linesman and when given a chance played a strong, steady game. lie is another man that a year of experience will greatly aid in making a regular next fall. COWARD JACOBS. Utility. Like Connor. Jacobs failed to make a regular position owing to the lack of experience. He is strong, fast and heady, and should make a strong bid for a regular position on the 1913 aggregation. Eighty three UNIVERSITY 7, COLLEGE 0 The college lost the first game of the season to the university on a forward pass followed by a series of line bucks, each of which netted substantial gains. Throughout the first half the college outplayed their opponents, although at each time when close enough to try for points the university would brace. Then again in the second half the college came back strong. However, after a few minutes of playing similar to that of the first half. Owsley intercepted a forward pass on the college thirty yard line, several shift plays through one point netted the rest of the distance and the university won the day. Craighead kicked goal. The college held together the rest of the game and no further scoring resulted. Heagney and Christie at the end positions played wonderful ball and Carr and Maddox were always in the fight, while Grimes played the pivot position in good shape. UNIVERSITY 39, COLLEGE 3 The second and last game of the season was played Saturday, November 9th at Missoula and the university came off with the big end of the 37 to 3 score. The college started in with fight and for the first few minutes played the better game of the two teams. However, the university soon struck its stride and Owsley got away for a long run around end and a touchdown. The college stayed with the game, however, and pushed the ball down close to the university’s goal when Carr made three points on a kick from placement. However, the university had the better of it from this time on and it seemed impossible for the college men to stop their opponents when plowing through the line. The university had just returned from a trip to Utah and used the experience gained to good advantage. However, what really lost by such an enormous score for the college was the fact the men lost heart when their opponents got away with the first touchdowns. Eight i -five 3 I 91 0 Basket Ball at Montana State The first notice of basketball at the college was in an Exponent back in 1899. At that time two teams called the “Reds” and “Yellows’’ were organized and they played three games during the season. In 1901. teams were organized at other schools of the State and since then it has been mostly win, win, win for M. S. C. Since the introduction of the sport. Weslayan won the championship one year, the college at Deer Lodge another. Outside of this the championship has rested every year at Montana State. The game won by the university this year was the first that was over won by that institution from the college and although that was surprise enough for one season another surprise awaited the students when the same team defeated the Triple B’s on the college basketball floor. This was the first college team to win a victory over the Billings aggregation, and in fact it was the first Montana team to win from them. Although the season has not been the brightest the fact that the college won the above game and the state intercollegiate championship helped a great deal and now all that can be done is to see that a better showing is made in the field next year. Eighty-seven BROOKE HARTMAN. Captain. After annexing the championship for the seventh successive time in 1912. Brooke was again selected to captain the five this year. Owing to his versatile ability he played both guard and forward during the season with equal success. His determination and fighting spirit tided the team over many a tight place and due to these qualities he held the complete confidence of the five. M. S. C. will say good-bye to Brooke this year and in him she looses a captain and player whose place will be hard to fill. J. EDWARD HODGSKISS. Guard. Although “Bing’s” aspirations as a basketball player were never very high, he was persuaded to don a suit to fill a place after the first disastrous defeat last year. The applause which greeted him upon his first appearance has never died: for Bing plays a better game every time out. and his worth as a guard is unestimable. When there were any “big” fellows to be taken care of he was right on the job and his whole enjoyment in the game seems to be in trying his favorite holds on some opposing player. To find a player of equal strength, endurance and speed will be difficult, for “Bing” leaves M. S. C. this year. Eighty-eight MAXWELL WILCOMB. Center. Although handicapped somewhat by sickness early in the season. “Slim” pulled through with Hying colors and finished up in whirlwind style. Slim is one player who has few “off” nights and on account of this consistent work he was one of the most dependable men on the team. His extreme height gave his team the advantage of being able to get the jump, which accounts for many of the signal plays worked during the season. The highest tribute that can be paid to his playing is to say that every rooter in the school hails his appearance on the floor with delight. VICTOR COTXER. Forward. After winning the highest possible honors in intcrscholastic basketball. Vic.” gained new laurels during his first year at M. S. C. by playing a wonderful game at forward. 11 is dazzling speed, wonderful passing and basket shooting proved to be too much for every guard that played against him and when the individual scores of the season were counted up. Vic.” lead the Blue and Gold scorers. At no time did he sacrifice team work for individual playing and this was one of the factors that counted so heavily in his success. With three years yet to play any predictions may fail to tell of his phenomenal success on the basketball Hoor. Eight y-ninc WILLIAM FLU HR, Forward. Rill played his first game of college basketball with Montana State and his work through the season was of first class order. Bill loved to hear the crowd cheer when he heaved a basket from near the center of the field and this sometimes lead him to sacrifice team work for long shots. These slips did not occur very often, however, and as a determined, hard working player Bill has few equals. WILLIAM MADDOX, Guard. Bill” began his basketball career at M. S. C. as a sub on the first team. About the middle of the season he was given a regular berth as guard and his work in the Triple B game and Varsity game stamps him as an excellent guard. His best game is played when fighting for the ball and although he was able to handle his share of the team work, his defensive playing was much the better. With two years yet to play the college is assured of a good guard for some time. MORTIMER LOTT. Forward. Lott was the reserve man on the 1913 aggregation. but when given a chance he never failed to make good. Although somewhat weak in playing the floor he was a shark” on baskets and very few of his attempts at the netting went wide of their mark. His work in the second Varsity game was of high order, scoring nearly all of the points made by the team. With such men as Lott to fill vacancies, losses by graduation will not fall so heavily on the team. Xinety Season, 1913 W ednesday, December 11th. the college five were given the first public workout when coach Dockstader sent his proteges against the Carroll Club of Helena. Although the first game of the season it was even slowei than anticipated and if a barrel had been used instead of a basket it is doubtful if the college forwards would have been able to find it consistently. When the forty minutes of playing were finally up the score stood 31 to 17 in favor of the college. Extra sized hats were ordered by all the men next morning, and even when a schedule was announced against some of the best Wyoming and eastern Montana fives the players failed to see where they could lose a game. Just for the sake of making this book a complete record of college activities during the year, do we mention the scores of these, games. The first was lost to the Cowley aggregation by a score of 32 to 19. Lovell played rings around the college and won 23 to 9. By this time it dawned upon the blue and gold quint that they were not the champions of the world and they went against the famous Triple B‘s tor the last game of the trip fully determined to redeem their former defeats. Wilcomb was able to get back in the game against the Sugar Beeters and his presence seemed to add new life to the team. In a game that was a whirlwind from whistle to whistle, and in which the college led until the last few minutes, the Triple B's nosed them out by a score of 33 to 21. After a two weeks rest during the holidays the college quint limbered up on the Helena athletics, easily winning the game by a score of 32 to 16. The Varsity was next and the outcome of that game will long be remembered by the student body of M. S. C. With the team apparently working at its best and all of the men in fine shape, a rather easy victory was looked for. When a score of 19 to 16 was announced against the college, the students were long to awake to the fact that the college had been trounced by the Varsity for the first time in basketball. The defeating of the Carroll Club the next evening by a score of 56 to 25 failed to atone for the defeat at the hands of the university. The next game was played with the University of Utah, and the college was in anything but the best of condition for that game. Although flashes of their regular form was shown at times, they seemed unable to get into the contest with the proper spirit and Utah walked all over them to the tune of 41 to 19. Second only to the surprise of the defeat by the Varsity was the result of the game with the Triple B’s played in Bozeman. Even the most ardent supporters of the college five predicted a score of two or three to one in favor of the Billings aggregation. In a complete reversal of form over the previous week the college machine got busy and in the fastest forty minutes of basketball that was ever played at Montana State the blue and gold emerged victors by a score of 19 to 17. Cotner, originally from the city of Sugar Beets, did most of the scoring tor the college in this game, making eleven points for his team. Every man on the five played the game of his life and there were absolutely no weak points in the whole lineup. This was the first time the Billings team was ever defeated by a college team. The next game away from home this season was played with the Helena Independents. The college had little trouble in winning from the Senators by a one-sided score of 51 to 11. The Varsity made their appearance in Bozeman on March 8th for the second game with the college. Although it was the poorest exhibition of basketball played by the college during the year they won from the Varsity, 24 to 17. Bing was the only man on the whole team that played anywhere near his usual form, and this fact somewhat accounts for the closeness of the score. The championship game between the university and college was played March 21 in Helena, the college winning eight consecutive championships by a score of 24 to 18.

The Juniors played three games and had four points more than their opponents in these games. This leads most people to say it was luck that won for them and undoubtedly it was, but the fact remains the same. Who stands second in the race would be hard to say for first the Seniors won from the Sophomores, then the Freshmen won from the Seniors and in the last game, the Sophomores won from the Freshmen. In the first game of the series, the Sophomores lost to the Seniors by a single field basket. The game was fast and rough. The lower classmen took the lead and held it to the end of the half. Then presto and the Seniors covered their men and played better ball, winning by a score of nine to seven. That same afternoon, February 14th, the Juniors won their first game from the Freshmen by ten to eight. At the end of the regular time the score was tied at eight and additional time was needed when Kenck slipped up and made the deciding toss. The game was one in which guarding was the feature, neither side getting opportunity for many easy throws. On the afternoon of February 21st. the next two games were played. In the first the Freshmen won from the Seniors with a score of 19 to 8. the largest of the series. In the first half the game was slow and at the end the Freshmen led by two points. They then warmed up and during the second half played rings around their opponents. 'File second game of the afternoon was won by another horseshoe for the Juniors, the score at the end being, Juniors 7, Sophomores 6. This game was also slow. At the close of the half, the Juniors led by a single point, the score standing five to four. Then the lower classmen came back to win and within a few minutes tied the score and then led by a single point. It looked as though the game would be one of passing the ball throughout this half but just before the whistle blew, the Juniors by a burst of speed got away for a basket and the game. In the first game of the last day, February 28th, the Juniors won from the Seniors by a score of eleven to ten and thereby won the championship. The game was one of the best of the series as well as one of the roughest. First the Juniors secured four points to the Seniors none, then the Seniors tied their opponents and just as time was called. Spain added another to the Juniors on a free throw. The second half was a repetition of the first with one team a point ahead and then the other, the Juniors being fortunate in having the point on their side when the whistle blew. The last game was won by the Sophomores after the lower classmen thought they had the game won. The score was 19 to 14. The Sopohomorcs made the first basket followed by four for the Freshmen. It looked easy for the lower classmen but probably due to this, the Sophs got busy and were but a point behind at the end of the half, the score being 14 to 13. In the second half the Freshmen were shut out and the Sophs added three field baskets to their score. Xinety-three incty-four Track at Montana State Owing to the wet spring weather at Bozeman, the college has been unable as a rule to whip a good enough team into shape to win from their other State rivals. However, not daunted by weather the boys and coach Dockstader set about to do this very thing last spring and they did. They commenced training rather late and were handicapped by the weather. Everyone turned in to help. Three times during training season, the snow was shoveled oft the track that the boys might run. The whole atmosphere seemed charged with the spirit that the college must win. Plans were made for a big celebration, the spike in the cannon was drilled out and a large crowd of students were at the train to see the boys oft . How could the team resist the spirit? They could not and they won by a margin of ten points. From the very first they led sometimes by few and at times by many points. The collegians clearly had the university men outclassed and out of the fourteen events took nine firsts. Blinn got away in the quarter after losing the two twenty which was his race. Atkins secured a first in the half and Schumacher in the mile with Morgan adding five points in the two-mile race. The hurdles both went to the college. Kenck taking the high and Vestal the low. Davis made the hammer throw and Wilcomb was first in the discus. Brabrook made the first position in the high jump. And when the telegraph wires clicked off the final score Montana State College 68. University of Montana 58. there was joy in Bozeman. The cannon was fired, walks were burned and spirits fiowed free. Training is again commenced for the track meet this spring and although the college is greatly handicapped by the loss cf Captain Blinn and several of the other sure point winners are gone, things point to a mighty successful season as the Freshmen boast of a number of good men and there are others who have developed since last year. But most important of all the men are out to fight it out as they did last year.

A better choice could not have been made, for besides being a crack sprinter. Blinn had that Irish fighting spirit that stimulated his team mates and urged nine different men to win their events. Blinn won the 440 in fine style and pushed his men in the 220 and 100 yard dashes. RALPH S. BRABROOK. Having had four years of experience in high school at Rockford, Illinois, “Bra” came to M. S. C. well prepared to put up a strong bid for track honors. Last spring he went into the state meet determined to land several points and none of us were disappointed. First place in the high jump was taken easily. Kenck was pushed in the high hurdles and won by only a hair over Bra.” In the broad jump Ralph took second a fraction behind the winner. A clean athlete and a good sportsman describes him well. JOSEPH D. MORGAN. For an example of bulldog tenacity and consistent training Joe Morgan may well be placed in the lime light. For four years Joe worked out on the cinders, each year gaining in strength and speed. In 1912 the realization that this was his last year stimulated the little two-milcr and the style in which he ground off the distance won much applause for him. Setting a pace that placed him in the lead from the start. Joe never changed his stride and after the finish he seemed to regret that his race was over even though he had won a ripping good victor}-. W. B. VESTAL. Jr. Vestal wandered into Montana from the Hoosier State, coming with some experience in track and a natural desire to run. After hobbling over several flights of low hurdles in 1911 he came back on the job again in 1912. maybe a little more infirm and a little more bald, yet in fair form, managing to lead the field at the state meet. MAX KENCK. Max received his early training in the high hurdles in the Butte High School. When the migration to the cinders began Max was among the leaders and stayed on the job throughout the season. From the crack of the gun at Missoula. Kenck led the race in the high hurdles and won by a fighting finish over a team mate. Kenck is conscientious and a hard worker. We may well expect much from him this spring. .V inely-elght WILBUR SCHUMACHER. A good little distance man coming to us from the University of Oregon. Schumacher knows the game and plays it well. The mile is his race and he runs it like clock work. He took his event at the state meet with plenty of margin to spare, finished strong and entered the two-mile event immediately after his race. This lad will come out strong this spring and will bid for a place in his race. MAX WILCOMB. A first year man from the Dillon High School. Good, not from any past history but from the class he shows at present. In the dual meet last spring he won the discus throw easily with plenty of margin. The tangential force with which the discus leaves that long arm of Max’s is just about right to win. Max will be out strong this spring and we all look for him to add several feet to his last season’s hurl. LEON DAMS. Leon was not only a good weight man but one of the best liked men in the '15 class. At the meet with the University, Leon easily carried off the honors in the hammer throw and it is said that he enjoyed the meet in general more than any other member of the team. It is to be regretted that Davis is not with us again this spring as his absence from the team will necessitate the development of a new man to take his place in the weights. WILLARD E. ATKINS. The “Atom” is an old hand at the game and runs a heady race from start to finish. The 880 yard run is his favorite race and in the state dual meet he showed his ability in the middle distance event, winning by a good fifty yards. “At” is the proud possessor of one hundred twenty-eight pounds avoirdupois but his race was won on confidence. The loss of this little man will be keenly felt this spring in track work. “Mutt” and “Jeff” Dual Meet COLLEGE ATHLETIC FIELD, BOZEMAN, MONTANA, APRIL 21, 1913 Mutts” ...........................67l 2 Jeffs” ............................5S 2 Clas s Records.

One Hundred One Hundred One Third Interscholastic Basket Ball Tournament Held Under Auspices of Montana State College, March 6th, 7th and 8th. FORMER TOURNAMENTS. The third annual interscholastic basketball tournament was held at Montana State College March 6th. 7th and 8th of this year. This event, which is one of the leading events of the year among the high schools of the state, was begun three years ago. It was felt that there was a need of having something that would draw a number of high school students to Montana State each year in order that they might become better acquainted with each other and Montana State. It was further felt that such an event might be the means of inducing many a student to continue his education on the completion of his high school course. Accordingly plans for this first tournament were made before Christmas, as it was seen that the undertaking was one of enormous magnitude. And it was rather discouraging for it seemed as though it would be impossible to raise the necessary funds. However the Booster Club was thoroughly aroused and with the aid of members of the faculty the town and the students were canvassed with the result that funds were pledged and the invitations sent out. However it was too late for all the high schools to prepare for the event and that year the college entertained sixteen teams at the meet which was held March 2. 3 and 4. The first preliminary games were held Thursday, the second round and semi-finals Friday, and the final game was played off Saturday afternoon. Billings carried off the first honors with Anaconda second. Granite and Flat-head were given the bronze medals as they were the ones to compete in the semi-finals. The success of that first basketball tournament eclipsed the dreams of its most sanguine supporters and all who took part in it or attended seemed to have enjoyed the event thoroughly so it was immediately decided to plan for a better and bigger event than ever for the next year. And the high schools of the state planned for the same. Twenty-four high schools appeared the next time to compete for the championship and the cup. and the teams were better trained than the year before. Every one of them was here to fight it out for the cup. However, after twenty-four games had been played. Anaconda was declared the winners, having won from the team representing the Flathead County High School. Butte and Helena got as far as the semi-finals that year. This year twenty-six high schools appeared for the event. The visitors commenced to arrive Wednesday afternoon. March 5. The first of the preliminary games was played off Thursday afternoon and evening. The next day more were played off in the forenoon, afternoon and evening. Saturday morning the visitors made an inspection of the college grounds and buildings and later the semi-finals were played off. In the afternoon the extemporaneous speaking contest was held, and in the evening the final game was played giving Sweet Grass County High School the championship and the cup. Billings placed second with Helena and Anaconda playing in the semifinals against these two teams. Everything went off most satisfactorily except that the College was unable to properly accomodate the crowds that appeared for some of the games. And now it is hoped that even a better meet may be held next year. One Hundred Two THE WINNERS After playing five games Sweet Grass County High School was able to claim the championship at the third interscholastic tournament. Their first game was with Flathead. When time was called the score stood tied at fifteen. Seven minutes were necessary to play off the tie. Sweet Grass scoring three points in this time. Then they were declared victors over Fergus and Missoula and entered the semi-finals against Anaconda, winning from them by a score of 23 to 10. The last game was with Billings and it appeared during the first half that the Sweet Grass lads would lose out here. However, by a brace in the last quarter and some whirlwind basketball they bewildered the Billings team and the final score stood. Sweet Grass 26, Billings 14. The team won by team work of high order, coupled with brilliant work on the part of each individual player. Kress and Lamb at forward were sure shots and able to get away from most guards. Esp had the jump on every center he played and Hoyem and Pound at the guard positions covered their men every minute of play. BILLINGS HIGH After winning the first tournament and losing out in the first round of finals at the second, the Billings High aggregation came back to win their lost laurels this year. In the first contest of the meet, Billings met their old time rivals, the Butte High team. Billings scored a good lead during the first half and the Butte lads came back fighting mad and played like demons, all but recovering the lead. The final score stood. Billings 15. Butte 14. The Sugar Beeters next met Gallatin and then Chinook, winning each game easily. They then barely nosed Helena out of the long end of the score in the first of the final games, which ended with a score of 23 to 22. In the final game they lost to the Sweet Grass team. The individual work of the Billings men was excellent, although they did not show the cool headedness of the winners of the meet when losing. Allen rarely missed a try for a basket and Goucher played a wonderful game at forward, although held to a single basket in the last game. Branger was good at center. Xelson played a wonderful floor game at guard and Chrysler covered his men well, rarely letting them get a try for a basket.

SCHUMACHER CLARA FLANDERS RAUSIE ROECHER VIE VALLEAU -MILDRED ECKLES Editor-in-Chicf Assistant Editor Business Manager Associate Editor Associate Editor Associate Editor Associate Editor The first year book of Montana State College appeared seven years ago in the spring of 1906. Then, as now, it was published by a staff selected from the members of the Junior class. The first annual went under the name “The Blue and the Gold.” It was a modest little volume of 150 pages and was edited by James A. Peterson with Wilbur Robinson as business manager. Phoebe Morgan as associate editor and Carl Gottschalck as cartoonist. Since then each junior class has put out a year book. The second volume went under the name of “Montanian” and was published by Orville S. Peters. The next year the name of the book was changed to Montanan and since then Montanans have been published by Eugene Quaw, Elmer J. Williams, Charles H. Draper and Frank McGuire. Each year since its foundation the book has shown great improvement. As to the book itself, little need be said. It is intended to be a record of the happenings of each year, showing the lighter as well as the more serious sides of a college education. It is also a record of the advancement of the college from year to year, showing the new enterprises undertaken, the new clubs and organizations started and the athletic progress of the year, along with a fair record of each person’s achievements and failings. The publication of the book is no small enterprise in itself, as it requires in the neighborhood of fourteen or fifteen hundred dollars to finance it and requires no small part of the editorial staff’s time. The work commences in the spring of the sophomore year and for one year there is nothing but work. Then the members of the staff join in the chorus of the little song entitled. “Never Again!” One Hun (Iff 1 Six one Hundred Seven The Weekly Exponent STAFF SELMER H. SOLBERG '14 FRED E.

At first the paper was published by members ot the faculty and was intended more as a literary production than as a newspaper. Very soon, however, the paper went into the hands of students. It contained from twenty to thirty pages, each about the size of a page of this volume. As time went on but few changes were made in the paper. Each editor, however, made the publication a better one with bright covers, attractive stories, and cuts. Then in the fall of 1909 the staff held a scries of meetings for the purpose of discussing the feasibility of printing a W eekly Exponent. There were many difficulties to be met. However, on the morning of January 7. 1910, the first issue of the Weekly Exponent made its appearance following Assembly. The first paper was a four-column, fourteen-inch sheet and was met with great approval. Another issue of this size was put out and then the great demand for advertising space and the amount of news that had to be left out caused the staff to enlarge the paper to a five-column, eighteen-inch paper. It remained this size for the remainder of that year. However, next fall it was again enlarged, this time to its present size of six columns, twenty inches long. 'Phis monthly was continued in the form of a supplement after the weekly was founded, but owing to the lack of interest and finances this was abandoned last spring. June Hartman, Tl. was first editor of the weekly, Charles II. Draper, T2, being managing editor and Edgar Allen. Tl. business manager. The next two years the paper was edited by Charles H. Draper. T2. with Charles Hansen as business manager, and for the past year has been cared for by Selmer H. Solberg. T4. as editor and Fred E. Gordon. T3. as business manager. As a means of securing valuable experience, work on this enterprise is of inestimable worth. It demands a large amount of time and attention of those comprising the staff and the work is entirely of a voluntary nature, no remuneration being connected with staff positions. However, the practical worth of the work has always attracted enough to properly care for the publication. One Hundred Eight THE WEEKLY EXPONENT.

A. hit upon a new idea for raising funds with which to partly defray the expenses of sending representatives of the organization to the summer conference. That idea was to issue a cook book of recipes gathered from the college girls and others connected in some way with the institution. The first hook met with an enormous sale and the advertising space was well filled. In short the book was a success in every way and helped to fill the coffers of the organization with funds. It was not thought best to put a cook book out each year, however, so last year the idea was dropped. This year, however, a second book, larger and better than the first was prepared by the young ladies of the organization and placed on sale in the middle of February. It had been hoped to put the book out before the holidays, but owing to delays in the printing, this was impossible. The book this year was five by seven and a half inches in size and contained a hundred pages of recipes, furnished by members of the student body, for the most part by girls although in one or two instances the young men of the school handed in recipes in order to show that they would make good “husbandettes. ’ The publishing of the book is one of the best enterprises undertaken by the girls of the institution and means a great amount of work for those in charge. At the same time they derive a great deal of pleasure and valuable experience from it. One Hundred Eleven The Debate Council OFFICERS. l.YNDALL P. DAYIDSOX President. KYLE JONES Vice- President. MYRTLE ALDERSOX Secretary-T reasurer. MEMBERS. Myrtle Alderson Lyndall Davidson Mildred Eckles Fred Gordon J. E. Hodgskiss Kyle Jones Joe Morgan Selmer Solberg Leroy VYilley Roy Clark. I. T. GILRUTH. Debate Coach. The purpose of the Debate Council is to make arrangements for debates and other literary activities carried on at the college. This was formerly done by the Arena Literary Society and a little history of that organization may be of interest. The Arena was the first college organization founded in Montana, the date of its birth being the fall of 1893. Both men and wemen were eligible to membership and great interest in the organization was taken. Then in 1896 the girls left the Arena and founded the Clionian which went the way of all literary societies at M. S. C. in 1901. Three years later the Hatniltonia was organized by the girls but in 1909 they again joined the Arena. The Arena was now too far gone though to be revived, and so in the spring of 1911 the work of a literary nature that had to be cared for was placed in the hands of the Debate Council. One Hundred Twelve Debate Squad ALFRED M. EBERLE As we rush to press we remember that the debate with the University of Montana occurs in the very near future. One member of M. S. C.'s team will be Eberle. Now, Eberle is above all else, a talker. True at the present writing he has never defended the college against a foreign foe in debate, but he is well and favorably known to the Sophomores at least as the member of their Public Speaking class who always took up hall of the hour to prevent the necessity of flunking on the part of others who had not had the privilege of long residence in either Butte or Bozeman, the cities that develop the extemporaneous speakers. We have remarked that Eberle is above all a talker—well he talks sense, and an exceptionally good voice, a faultless presence, a pleasing manner and a never fading smile make him a very safe person to entrust with the platform reputation of M. S. C. BROOKE HARTMAN After the strain and stress of guiding the destinies of the Woodrow Wilson Club through the campaign and electing his man Brooke began to look around to see what other worlds were needing conquering. He had already completed a highly creditable connection with the football team, had ordered the basketball championship to be delivered to the hill in regular form, so he put his shoulder to the wheel and began to help on debate. It was unavoidable, you see. that Brooke should sooner or later become a public speaker—he is a Hartman. Brooke and Steel face our hardest debate problem this year; they leave home and meet the Helena people on their own platform. Wesleyan is an unknown quantity this year but Brooke is an old campaigner among the enemy and to his ability as a debater he adds the wariness and strategy born of many contests. We expect that he and Steel will return with the scalps from Helena. ROWLAND W. HAEGELE Haegelc could not be persuaded to come out of retirement last year, but a summer on the plains of Wyoming has in some unaccountable way made him talkative. At present he is slated to help Linficld with the Mormons. As a debater Haegele’s qualities are evenly balanced, but any special emphasis that you have you may place on his clearness and smoothness. He is as pleasing on the platform as he is on the campus and this is plenty pleasing. It was said of the immortal William that he formed his first associations with actors by holding their horses out in front of the play house. One Hundred Thirteen Debate Squad—Continued We do not suppose that Rowland ever held such but we doubt not that since he hails from Helena the home of politicians and the rendezvous on either side of any question, he is but proving true to his training in turning debater. ALFRED LI XFIELD If you were to ask this debater what is the biggest word in the language, the answer would be logic.” Now. Linfield is logical or he isn't anything, and he doesn’t care to speak unless it can be done logically. Being logical and fluent Linfield is convincing and this quality we shall soon depend on to win for us in the debate with the Mormons from Logan. Utah. Like Ebcrle. Linfield was one of the strong contestants in the local oratorical contest last year and this year will be twice as good. Whatever else may be said about this debater he knows what he thinks and why. Linfield is a member of the Class of 1915 and so will be heard from again before leaving. A. PAUL THOMPSON Thompson is the other member of that Missoula team and like Eberle he is strong on the talk. He has not had the advantage of long residence in the Copper City but he does hail from Leadville. Colorado and there must be some incentive there to talk for the Thompson family, though new to M. S. C. has already walked away from one contest with the prize. When it comes to platform presence we will have to admit that Eberle has curlier hair than Thompson but as to other qualities they stack up pretty evenly. Thompson’s voice is clear and strong and his information on public affairs is quite extensive. Besides he has more than a few of the other qualities that go to make up a good debater. DAVID STEEL Not content with making the Glee Club, the band—to say nothing of a church choir or two—Steel assumed the roll of king pin in the Freshman debating team so successfully that the Sophomores did not get a single strike. Although this is achievement enough for one year Steel has been chosen to stand on another debate platform—this time to represent the college. Steel has such qualifications as a splendid voice, a good command of language and a good presence. But above all Steel is persuasive. There is something in the way that he quotes statistics even, that makes one think that they are true. We are watching this man with great interest and the common prediction is that a little experience will make him an invincible platform man.

Tait One Hundred Eighteen Jack-o-Lanterns The Jack-o-Lanterns were organized in the fall of 1911 after the successful presentation of the play, The College Widow” under the direction of Mrs. Una B. Herrick the previous spring. Until this time but little in-trest had been taken in dramatics by the students on the hill. “The Toastmaster was given in 1906 with alumni such as Carl Widener, Whitfield Spain. Bill Hartman, and Wilbur Robinson in leading roles. Again in 1908 the Freshmen class under the leadership of Elmer T. Williams staged a burlesque on “The Merchant of Venice.” The following year the Freshmen again put on a play, “The Cricket on the Hearth.” The Sophomores who had bought up all the cabbages, turnips, and other vegetables in town secured most of the enjoyment out of this production, however, and for two years there were no more dramatics at Montana State. Then in 1910 and 1911 with the advent of Mrs. Herrick, a most excellent coach, the work was revived and the “College Widow” was given for the Montanan that year. The following fall the Dramatic Club, now known as the Jack-o-Lanterns, was organized and now gives two plays each year, the proceeds of which go to the erection of memorials about the campus and a big banquet for club members each spring.

GORDON President. ARTHUR E. SEAMANS Vice-President. ELLA K. OLSEN Secretary. The Student Senate was founded in the spring of 1911 largely through the efforts of David Iligbie, then president of the Booster Club. The purpose of the new organization was the management of strictly student affairs by the students. The organization lias passed through two years of existence with varying success in the several lines of work that it has taken up. in the matter of customs it has been very successful. One of the leading customs established by the organization is that of having the members of the Freshmen class act in the capacity of rubbers and general helpers during the football season. The Senate has also made it possible to regulate class fights and care for other student affairs. 'flic Senate is called on at different times to settle troubles among the students and has discharged this duty very well. The organization is representative of the entire student body. The president is elected from the senior class and the members are selected as follows: four from the Seniors, three from the Juniors, two from the Sophomores and one from the Freshmen. John C. Taylor was the president of the student body last year and Fred E. Gordon has headed the organization this year. Both took good care of the position and it is hoped that the organization may attain the same value and prestige to Montana State that similar organizations have reached in other institutions. One Hundred Txcent.u dm Class Senators Seniors Lawrence Wylie Arthur Seamans Rhoda Dawes Brooke Hartman Juniors Clara Flanders Frederick Dissly Roy Spain Sophomores George Roosevelt Mae Myers Freshmen Harrell Hibbard One Hundred Twenty-three Montana State College Regimental Band LOl'IS L. HOWARD. Director. One of the oldest and one of the best organizations of which Montana State can boast is its regimental band. The band was launched in the year 1907 under the efficient leadership of Louis L. Howard, who has since then constantly been working to make it a leading musical organization of the state. During the first winter of the organization every possible means were used to raise funds and when spring came the boys had enough money in their treasury to enable them to make a weeks' tour of some of the leading cities of the state. The band made a trip to Missoula with the members of the track team one spring and has done something of this nature each year with the exception of last when most of the old members had left and it was impossible to make the trip. However, the organization will probably make another tour this spring. It has been working all fall and winter to raise money for the tour; first the boys played for political rallies, then they gave a number of dances, a big carnival and the show. “The Tulip Girl. written by Eugene Quaw. was staged under the auspices of the band. The organization spent four hundred dollars for new uniforms also this winter. In the event of the band making the trip the men will have a private car and will stop at several of Montana's cities. They will give their exhibition under the auspices of the high school at each place, and all the proceeds that may be made from the performance by the band will go to the high school for whatever purpose they may desire to put it. Giving their services free, in addition to advertising the college, makes a large number of friends among the high schools of the state. The organization offers valuable training to the man who has musical talent as well as a large amount of pleasure during the years spent in college. One Hundred Twenty-four The Band LOUIS L. HOWARD.

Some four or five years ago the college boasted a Mandolin Club, which was a leading organization in its day. However, its leader left, the old members dropped out and the organization died about the year 1909. After a large amount of preliminary work, however, an orchestra was organized last fall and I '. O. Jackson, of this city, was secured to lead it. Mr. Jackson is eminently fitted for the position and under his direction the orchestra has developed beyond the hopes of its most ardent supporters. The organization is now composed of sixteen members as listed on the opposite page. They appeared on an Assembly program and also gave a dance this spring, both of which were much enjoyed. It is hoped that the organization may reach the same stage of perfection as that attained by the Band and make an occasional tour of the state. Owing to the short time it has been organized, this will probably be impossible this spring, but every eftort will be made to have their hopes realized next year. The orchestra provides recreation for its members and together with other musical organizations on the hill offers great opportunities for those with musical talent to develop under efficient teachers. Mr. Jackson now holds a regular place on the faculty so that instruction in violin may be had from him. One Hundred Twenty-six Orchestra F. O. JACKSON, Director. IX ST R I M E XT AT IO X Robert F.

This year the college has had two glee clubs, one for the men and the other for the women of the school, and both of them have reached a high standard in this line of work. Musical organizations of this sort have been a part of the college at one time or another since it was organized. However, these two organizations are of a very recent nature. The Male Glee Club was started in the fall of 1911 and for a short time all the men students of the college were eligible to belong to it. Then it was decided that it would be better to have fewer members and to put more time in on the lesser number that they might become more proficient in the work. Accordingly regular tryouts were held and the number in the organization reduced to twelve, three persons to each part. At the same time the girls were organized into the Hamilton singing society, to which all of the girls of the institution were eligible. Two assembly programs were given by the organizations last year, both of which showed a great amount of training and high merit. At the commencement of school again last fall it was decided that the girls should be organized into a regular glee club the same as that of the boys. The result was the ladies glee club of sixteen voices. All fall they practiced and shortly after Christmas gave an assembly program jointly with the Male Glee Club which was organized at the commencement of the college year. The program was divided into two parts, the first being of standard selections and the last of college songs. The clubs are both to be given credit for giving a most excellent program. In addition to this the clubs have appeared on a number of special occasions. U. II. Bishop, teacher of vocal music at the college is the director of the organizations and for those who have any talent along musical lines the clubs furnish the means of much valuable training and pleasure.

Through this club the cheering sections for the college in athletic contests have been organized, better feeling between the rival teams and institutions has been brought about, improvements have been made on the college grounds and buildings, work on the athletic field was commenced, tennis courts were built, a piano was purchased for the college gymnasium and it was largely through the Booster Club that the first tournament was held. For although the idea had been thought of and planned by the faculty it appeared that it would be impossible to raise the necessary funds for the big interscholastic event and it was then that the Boosters got in and canvassed the town, raising funds and arousing interest. The club has also been a factor for good in the college through the boosting spirit which it has disseminated throughout the general student body. The club has been the general body before which all questions of general import to the college have been carried and it is the one organization where all of the students can get together to upbuild the institution, no matter what the course or what his other standing may be as long as lie is a four-year college man. The motto of the club is Boost, boost, boost and then boost some more. The first president of the club was David DeMuth. Then came Marvin Spain. However, since then things have developed in such a way that the club is now the place for the members of the lower classes to show their spirit and the last three presidents have been members of the freshmen or sophomore classes. And the spirit in the club has never been better. This year the club has turned the dances, which are generally given by the organization over to the band to aid that organization in raising funds for their trip in the spring. They have also been prominent in the work attendant upon the tournament and other propositions for the boosting of the college.

And since that day the Boosterines have been a most effective organization for the upbuilding of Montana State. At the two annual workdays that were held when the work on the athletic field was started and other improvements made to the college grounds the Boosterines took a most prominent part, taking it upon themselves to furnish the tired and hungry workers with a feed at the close of the day. This feature of the day contributed largely to the success of the two work days that were held. And the Boosterines could have been counted upon to have been ready with another feed last year had it not been that there were so many conflicting dates that it was necessary for the day to be abandoned. Further than this the Boosterines have had singing sections at the college athletic games and have been prominent on the sidelines during the strenuous days of practice. They have never been induced to keep away from the games by the weather and many a game has been attended by a large body of the members of the club when even the boys thought twice before going. Last year the Boosterines took a prominent part in the entertainment of the high school students at the tournament and during the spring they sent personal letters to the girl graduates of the high schools of the state, telling them something of the college. Similar work is being done again this year and the Boosterines can always be counted upon as loyal to the Blue and Gold whatever may befall it.

Milburn Victor Cotner David Steel Palmer Tubbs Herbert Hudson Civil Engineering Society The Civil Engineers’ Society was organized in 1908 with a charter membership of thirty. All students at the college taking a course in civil, sanitary or architectural engineering are eligible to membership in this organization. The prime object of the society is to keep such students interested in the engineering progress of the day. Since the founding of the society it has always been one of the most active on the hill, and from time to time has had a number of speakers address its members. The last two years a civil engineering journal has been published by the members of the society. Roy B. Williams and William G. Tremper were responsible for the first one and Harold Wolpert and William E. Chapman for the second. This enterprise was dropped this year, but it is possible that the Electric Club will join hands with the C. E. Society to put out an engineering journal next year. The society has given several assembly programs and has been one of the first to help at such a time as when the tournament is staged. One Hundred Thirty-teven Electric Club and Student Branch A. I.

However, it was not expected that all of the students would care to join this organization, so a club to take in all of the students was organized at the same time, this latter club being known as the Electric Club. The membership reached thirty-five the first year. The purpose of the organization is to promote interest in the electrical engineering profession and to secure good speakers to address the members of the club from time to time. 'The club has also been active in other ways. Several electrical shows have been given by the club at which times the apparatus of the department as well as a great number of commercial appliances and novelties prepared by members of the club, have been on display for the large crowds that attended. The club has also put out several special issues of the Exponent. has helped in making the tournament a success, and in general has been one of the most active and alive of all the organizations on the hill. The student branch of the A. I. E. E. located at Montana State College is the only one in the states of Montana. Idaho, W yoming and Xorth and South Dakota, and it together with the Electric Club has proved of enormous value to the students registered in the Electrical Engineering course at the institution.

However, it was first organized back in 1904 and was composed for the most part of short course men. Then it appears that the organization died in the 1907. according to one authority, of a weak heart and moss on the back. In 1909 it was reorganized and in 1911 its membership was limited to the men enrolled in the regular four year course of the college. Since these later changes the club has taken on a new life and new spirit and now meetings are held regularly every two weeks, at which time interesting programs are given by members of the club and of the college faculty. The club has also been active socially and has entertained the Home Economics Club on several occasions during the past year. Further than this the club has been of immense value because of the bookstore run under its supervision. By means of the bookstore, which is sort of a stock corporation, the text books used by the students and faculty members are furnished at lower rates than would be possible in any other way. During the past year the club has been one of the most active on he hill. One Hundred Forty-one Home Economics Club OFFICERS OLIVE CLARK..................................President ELLA HARMON ...

This organization died in 1907. For five years the department had no organization. Then in 1909. with a membership of eleven, the present Home Economics Club was organized and since that time has held a place in the first rank with other college organizations. Like the other departmental societies, all who belong to the department whose name the club bears are eligible to membership in the society. Meetings have been held at intervals more or less irregular and programs given. On several occasions different members of the faculty have addressed the members of the club on the more interesting topics of the day. 'Phe club has also met with the members of the Agricultural department organization and at all times the report has been that the two organizations have had the best of times. One of the leading events was a masquerade given the Agriculturalists during the early months of school this year. Just after the commencement of the second semester, the “Aggies reciprocated with a big feed and informal party.

All of the students taking pharmacy are eligible to become members of this organization, and owing to the value of such an organization its college is recognized by the Montana State Hoard of Pharmacy, and membership generally consists of everyone taking the course. A word cr two in regard to the high standard of the course in pharmacy may not be out of place here. The course offered at the a person on completing the course and having four years of experience can become a registered pharmacist without examination. The course offered by the college is also recognized as standard by the Xew York Board of Pharmacy. Xot only is the course recognized as being of a high standard throughout the country, but the graduates are always in demand and are often tempted to go into practical work before the completion of the course. Taken all together the outlook for the club and the department is the brightest ever known in the history of the state. One Hundred Forty-fire Chemical Club OFFICERS KENYON I. TALCOTT A.

The club has been in a flourishing condition this year and has maintained a regular seminar in connection with the club, at which times subjects of importance to the men in this profession are brought up and discussed. Anyone studying chemistry or chemical engineering may become a member of the club. This is the first organization of this kind at Montana State and it would be safe to predict a most rapid growth for the society in the future.

Meetings were held twice a month during the first year and plans were made for securing a house the next year. This was left in the hands of a committee and cared for during the summer of 1912. On the return of the members of the organization in the fall everything was in readiness and they moved into their new home. The prospects for a bright year for the organization were most promising, but some of the members of the faculty did not approve of the idea of having fraternities, local or otherwise at Montana State, and the faculty jumped on this one with both feet. The result was the reorganization of the fraternity as the Triangle X Club. This was done at Christmas time and since then it has gone under the latter name. One Hundred Forty nine K. N.

It was planned to have a house the present year, but the members were unable to secure a suitable one during the summer. However, they continued their organization this fall until they met with the same opposition from the faculty as that encountered by the members of the Delta Chi local. The result was their reorganization as the K. X. Club. The membership of the club is now nineteen. Hundred Fiftsr-one Les Bouffons Organized: 19C0 Color: Black OFFICERS GEORGE W.

Solberg Louis Dahling Charles Hansen Alonzo Truitt Robert Lapeyre One Hundred Fifty-two Les Bouffons Les Bouffons Club was organized in 1900 as a local honorary fraternity with a membership of sixteen. The purpose of the club was to give several invitational dances each year, principally for the students of the college. James Arnold was elected the first president of the club and the name Les Bouffons, meaning merrymakers or jesters, was selected for the organization. Since that time the membership of the club has been cut down to ten and from custom they must be selected from the junior or senior classes of the regular college courses or from the senior class in pharmacy. Thus the club has become the honorary junior and senior club of Montana State. The activities of the club have changed somewhat since the organization of it also. At first it was the plan to give one dance each month. I fowever. the ever increasing activities of the college have made this impossible and now the club gives but two or three dances each year. Tor a time it was the custom for the members of the organization to meet at the homes of the members for suciai times. However, this has changed also, and now in place of meeting at the homes of the members of the organization, the members of the club hold two or three informal stag parties and business meetings each year at the Bozeman hotel.

Rhoda Dawes was the first president of the organization and it held regular meetings, chiefly of a social nature. It has been active throughout its four years of existence and many are the pleasant times that the girls have had. The club will go out of existence this year, at least as an active student organization of Montana State, as they have initiated no one into the mysteries of the order outside of the regular members of the class of 1913.

WHARTON SELMER H. SOLBERG GEORGE ROOSEVELT CLYDE STIEB President Vice-President Secretary Treasurer MEMBERS All the men at the college in the tour year courses. One Hundred Sixty Stags Founded nine years ago by a small group of freshmen, preps, and high school students who were left out when the bids for a leap year party were sent out, the Stag Association has grown to be one of the regular college organizations and the Stag party held each year just after the mid-year examinations is an event that has always been looked forward to. At this time joy reigns supreme and during that evening the students are able to get back to normal after the strenuous work of taking the exams the fore part of the week. The festivities usually commence at about seven o’clock on Friday evening and continue throughout the night, coming to a close only when the dawn of the next day appears. The first event of each program is the initiation when the freshmen are converted from young and tender fawns into full-grown stags. A number of stunts arc gone through each year and the end of the first act for each freshman comes when the stag brand is clapped on and he is allowed to go free among the other members of the organization. Although the initiation program varies from year to year, it always tests the nerves of the bravest and the trials and terrors which each of them must undergo re such that he is glad when they are over, but the smile of satisfaction at being called a Stag shows that he feels amply repaid for all of it. Following the initiation the members of the organization have a big banquet at the Bozeman hotel and after stories, toasts and “chuck,” all depart for one of the local playhouses where vaudeville stunts of various sorts are pulled off. The program here completed the crowd repairs again to the hall where initiation is held and the rest of the night is spent in Monte Carlo,” which is an imitation of the West in the early days and of Monte Carlo itself, where fortunes are lost and made every hour.

The first party was composed of four year college girls to the number of about twenty-five and ever since the party has been an annual affair much looked forward to end enjoyed by the fair ones of the institution. At the first party, although there were no boys present, each girl had an escort, part of the girls having borrowed their brother’s clothes, pipes and other equipment. Stunts by the members of the organization were introduced as a feature of the party and now it is the custom for each class to give one stunt. The initiation of iew members has also been added as a part of the evening’s entertainment during the last few years and a big feed is served along toward midnight, after which the fun keeps up until the “wee sma’ ” hours of the morning. During the early history of the organization the members met at the home of some member, but the growth has been so rapid that it is now necessary to hold meetings in the Agricultural Building. This year the club rooms and the Home Science rooms were the scene of most of the evening’s fun. The initiation of the freshmen occupied the early part of the meeting, and although the members of the organization seem reluctant to say much about their party, from what can be gleaned here and there, the tortures to which the freshmen were subjected must have been most trying. Then came the big feed and following this stunts were given by each class. To go into detail concerning them would be impossible, but the reports that are spread about show that the girls keenly enjoy their big party each year. One Hundred Sixty-three Y. W. C. A.

The first membership of the association was sixteen. Now it includes most of the girls in the institution. Each year the association sends one or more of its members to the State Conference and also to the National Conference. To do this it raises money by means of candy sales, luncheons, and this year published a cook book which it sold to members of the student body and faculty, and townspeople. The organization holds meetings every Tuesday at noon and its purpose is the betterment cf the social and moral welfare of the girls attending the college.

However, what really counts is what the names stand for. In that light Montana State College has an alumni body to be proud of. Among her members are men and women holding some of the most responsible positions in this and other states and countries. And in this connection it must further be considered that the school is yet in its infancy. Ten years ago the alumni roll contained but eighteen of these names and five years ago but sixty-five of them. As the college grows so will its alumni and if the later graduates from Montana State do as much to further the name of the school in the work they take up, as the first ones, the prestige and power of the school can never die.

For this reason and because of the high cost of importing monkeys for this use. the corps of killers must resort to the use of domestic cats, dogs and faculty members.

We have got to have less of this criminal carelessness if we have to have all of our jails filled with the perpetrators of such outrages.

College Life A COLLEGE is a place to separate yourself from a large sum of money and in return secure a large sum of knowledge, or perhaps a wife or maybe only experience and a good time. Many a student selects one of the latter returns for his money only to regret it afterward, and then he goes about doing all the harm he can by giving advice. But work or play, college days are longer remembered and with more pleasure than any others in a man’s life. You may get stacks of knowledge and make a fortune. When you think of it you remember college days. How you boned to work that made your fortune. If you get a wife there are two of you to enjoy the memories of those college days. And while the effort may have caused a few flunks and low grades they are forgotten. Or maybe all you got was experience. The “tinware” was presented to you. Well, you had the good times anyway, and you learned that a man must make good or fall. You fell then, and if you could learn a lesson the experience was your making. Or maybe your experience showed you that you had to work and the inherent laziness was driven out of your system. So much the better. So whatever the outcome, a person can look back on those old college days, the fusses with the faculty, the cramming for tests, the problems you couldn’t work, but had to and did. and mixed with all of this the big parties, the staunch friends who would tide you over until the next check came from home, and loan you his girl if you wished it. the big celebrations, and in short the most pleasant days of your life. Truly college days are a wonderful time and should be arranged so that none of their pleasures or benefits may be lost. Criminal Carelessness In another part of this issue is chronicled a wreck due to criminal carelessness. Such accidents as these happen daily. A person forgets the enormous responsibility that rests upon him and lets some one absolutely inexperienced and incapable take the throttle or watch his work while he takes a nap. or steps out to drop around the corner for a drink. The result —well, you can see the result from the picture later in this issue. Thousands of lives are lost, millions of people are injured for life, billions of dollars worth of property is destroyed and all because some incompetent. careless person is allowed to take the place of a person The Value of a Frog Pond Can you imagine a college complete without a frog pond? Xo. Well, it must be admitted that it would be difficult to see how a school could run on such a basis. For where could the tug of war be held with one-quarter as much interest attached to it? A tug of war without a pool of slimy water between the contestants would be about as interesting as a school without a faculty to cuss. Then there are other uses for such a convenience about a college. Suppose for a minute that there were no frog pond. Would threats against the freshmen have any force? ’Tis doubtful if anything holds more terror for the freshmen heart than the frog pond with its moss covered bottom, every inch taken possession of by turtles and other water inhabitants. And what could be done with students who must needs be dealt with severely for their misdemeanors? The frog pond fills the bill. A wild chase through the dark night and a chilly bath in the pond will cure many an evil. So it must be evident that it would be most difficult to do without a frog pond and the idea of filling up the one on the college, as promulgated by members of the faculty, should be discouraged.

It is true that they have been altered somewhat, but we believed that they have been in-proved by our corrections and additions.—Editors. The production of the dramatic club, “The Professor’s Malady,” was not the success it should have been. To begin with, there was a note of frivolity and levity that is not fitting in a production worthy of being staged in the opera house. Mae Myers had no sense of modesty to allow herself to be carried off the stage in the unseemly manner that was seen in the play. Kyle Jones was a disgrace to the college faculty. He made love to the girl in public and as a self-respecting mother. I could never let any of my children attend any of his classes after some of the language that he used. The faculty should dismiss him at once. Teddy Roosevelt should have had better sense than to have powdered his hair up in the way that he did. It is not fitting for any person, let alone a young man. to try to make himself more beautiful than the Lord intended, and so that is another bad part of the play. The one bright feature was the way that Alonzo Burkett behaved. I have known that boy ever since he was a little child and the way that he behaved is a credit to his mother’s bringing up. He was dignified and grave; he displayed a seriousness that is a very fine thing for one of his age, and his attire was sober and becoming. In a midst of a comedy of errors he was the one bright spot. I can’t waste any more of my time on the rest. They were awful. Now let us be careful about talking in the library. Synopsis of I he Comedy of Errors Act 1. scene 1.—Scene a football gridiron in Bozeman. Company, with Bing Hodgskiss staring in the role of Ted Coy. staging the annual Comedy of Errors with the Varsity. The whistle blows and the curtain rises showing Bing starting the action by booting the ball into Varsity territory Actions spoke louder than words at this point of the play and the two forces rushed madly into the battle as the audience yelled itself hoarse. The first attempt of the Varsity to gain attention of the audience failed, shoving Bing and his chorus into the limelight. Compliments of this sort were interchanged for some ten minutes by the two companies. The crowd finally became enraged at this inaction and began to shower the players with the boquets of cabbages, lemons, cowardly eggs, etc. At the command of their leader the college artists began to shove the Varsity vaudeville players off the stage. They became stubborn, however, and refused to budge, the act closing with the college fighting for the possession of the stage. Act 2. Same scene.—Curtain rises showing actors in same positions and crowd began to sworm to the box office demanding rebates. Manager Vestal, of the college troupe, rushes upon the stage and implores his companv to get busy. Bing calls his huskies together for a short council of war and then tears gamely into the opposing forces. Little is accomplished, and in order to save himself from utter ruin, the manager rings the curtain down. (Crowd leaves scats to gather up boquets for future use). Act 3. Scene reversed.—The curtain rises on a scene of utter confusion. The Varsity have become incensed over the treatment from the college troupe and are taking matters into their own hands. They seem to little care how they handle the college celebrities. and even Bing in all the raiment of a star, was ruthlessly walked over by the “supers” of the Varsity’s company. The corned'- of errors was fast changing into a tragedy, when Lou Howard realizing the situation, called upon the band to strike up “Everybody’s Doin’ It.” At this point the crowd called for the playwright. Oscar Hammerstein Dockstader. who had been previously informed as to their malicious intentions and left the performance by a back entrance, beating a hasty retreat to the X. P. depot, boarding a side-door Pullman for parts unknown. The college company were all but killed by the rushing Varsity troupe and the curtain was rung down just as the crowd was again getting ready to heave more unwelcome compliments on the weary actors.

LIFE 195 The Suffragette March VOTES TOE IT is with great pleasure that Life” is able to chronicle the triumphant march of the suffragettes on to Belgrade. Under the leadership of Vie Yalleau and Florence Wight they have started on their tramp. It was the hope of “Life” that we might issue daily bulletins of their progress as we kept tab of their march, but owing to the speed of the marchers and the fact that the printers arc shouting for copy, we are forced to omit this feature. The march is under the leadership of the two ladies mentioned above, but credit is also due to many of their trusty lieutenants, among whom we might mention Willa Sultzer. Myrtle Alderson and Pearl Heighton. Miss Sultzer is in charge of the anti-men league and at the 'latest reports the campaign being carried on under her direction is proving highly successful. It is her plan to finally eliminate mere man from this earth, retaining only a few specimens as a concession to the zoology department of the college. Miss Alderson is in charge of the temperance department of the crusade. It is her duty to see that no tobacco or other forms of disgusting edibles are placed on sale and at latest reports it seems that the Wrigley Gum company has an option on her services, as she has displayed special talent in introducing this article of commerce among the male members of the community where the crusade is passing. Miss Heighton will act as special chaperon for the party. It is her duty to see that none of the younger and more frivolous members of the procession so far forget their duty to the cause of equal rights as to smile on and encourage the young man. In order that they may have some of the pleasures that formerly were their lot. she loans special copies of Life to them for an hour at a time on Sunday afternoons. This goes far in helping her in her work. In the next issue of “Life” we will give a more detailed account of the success of this movement. ••Slim' N Jlcomb— Nobody loves a skinnie guy.” 196 LIFE •■Baby Halil-—“O jree. nobody loves a fat man.

It is the first and only collection of musicians that the celebrated Louis von Howard has amassed in this city. Among them we are pleased to note some of the most famous musical artists. The peculiarity of garb is due to the fact that Louie was compelled the last minute to stay at home and take care of the baby while his wife was attending a suffragette meeting and did not return in time so Lou could get his clothes back. Vie was seen in this dress and so ridiculed that he compelled the band to don it in order that he might not be alone in his misery. In this he was ably assisted by Red Undent, who saw a chance to get uniforms for his collection of chefs at the “Shorthorn” Club rooms. After the performance had ended Louie came to the conclusion that the uniforms might need some explanation and so stated that they had been worn as a hint that the band needed other suits. As a result a philanthropic student body came to the rescue and so now they are seen as those little pests commonly known as bell hops. Many of the faculty members have complained that the uniforms have disturbed their classes because certain students make wagers as to what the uniforms were originally intended for and this disturbs the dullness of the classes. It was due to the prominence that these uniforms gave the band that they were able to give so many dances after the basketball games. In this manner they were able to arouse sympathy aside from that which comes from having to hear their own music. Florence Wight's favorite song—“Waiting for liobert E. I.ee. •LIFE- The Civil Engineer IN the early dawn of history when mankind did appear, Things were indeed quite different, for there was no engineer. The aggies owned the country and had an easy time. For there were no ladders of ambition for the patriarchs to climb. The planets in the garden, unfolded to the sun. With fruits and plants and dainty things, the world was overrun. Old Adam would, from day to day, leaning on his hoe, Gaze upon his orchards and watch his apples grow; Or if in need of some new clothes to dress him for the ball. He would simply pluck some foliage or wait for the leaves to fall. There were no scientific books, teaching conservation of the soil. Everything grew quite plentiful, without a bit of toil: And so they lived in pleasure under heaven’s sky sublime. Enjoying many blessings in this bright and happy clime. So the world might yet be going, had there not come a fatal day When everything was changed and the old things passed away. The blue skies turned to darkness and over all was gloom. The earth was hushed and silent as the silence of the tomb. Then the rain began to pour and Xoah built his brig: But he found he couldn’t do the job without calculus and trig. So he started in to figure the bending moments in the beams. The weight of wood and iron and many other things. He kept a night school of engineering, working on his boat by day, Until the stately ark was launched and proudly sailed away; She was the finest brig on any sea afioat; Which has given Xoah the honor of being an engineer of note. And ever since the time of Xoah the world has loved to hear Of all the wonders contracted by the Civil Engineer. Xot very prepossessing in his boots and overalls. He’s found in every clime wherever duty calls. Sinking piles into the quicksand on which to build a pier, To hold the mighty thousands when the mighty ships draw near: Building jetties in the ocean to keep the land intact. Supplying things to Xature which the dear old mother lacked. He has builded all the railroads that encircle this old earth. The tunnels in the Andes, the mighty bridge at Firth, Upon the arid prairies this genius then has chose To bring the needed water which makes them blossom as the rose. By looking through his transit and working probs in math. He keeps the world a-moving and in its proper path. Xow when again you see an engineer dragging consolation from a pipe. Don’t forget that lie’s the one that has set everything aright: And that while you are dreaming by a cheerful fireside. He is bunking on the prairies with a tarp about his hide: Working on from day to day with a purpose good and true. Leaving monuments of fame when his toils on earth are through. Let us hope that when the curtain rises on that happier day. When the mist and clouds of centuries will at last have cleared away; When we gather in that city which we all do hold so dear, We’ll be welcomed at the gateway by a civil engineer. —TT� � . • .

Vol. 1 Friday, March 32, 1913 No. 1 FACULTY UNCOVERS FRATERNITY AMONG COLLEGE STUDENTS The student body was generally horrified and shocked this morning to hear that, as a result of sonic diligent detective work by some members of the faculty. a secret Greek letter fraternity was discovered flourishing in the college. The organization will, according to the statement of the committee in charge, be disbanded immediately. It was generally know n among the student body that some form of social club existed among a number of the students, but it was generally thought that this was an unorganized gathering that met by accident at certain places of refreshment in the city, and while the same persons were nearly always present, nothing was thought of it. Then it became noticed that some of these members were wearing pretzels, and when asked concerning this, refused to answer any questions regarding the emblems. The faculty committee which has charge of such matters, quietly took the matter in hand with the astonishing finding that the pretzels were the Greek letters Alfalfa and Ieta. and that the organization. that had in sport been called the Icata Pretzels, was a full-fledged Greek letter fraternity. It was further ascertained that the chapter house was located at 19 West Main street and that the seeming public place there, was in reality the meeting place of this pernicious organization, and the proprietor and his employees were the patrons of the fraternity. When interviewed by The Excuse, the chairman of the faculty committee had the following to say: “Yes, it is true that the faculty is taking steps to abolish this organization and will, in all probability, forbid the members the use of the college union until such time as they sign a pledge guaranteeing membership to at least three members of the faculty. We for-sec no difficulty in taking this step unless the pretzels are given to the women of the institution to wear, in which event we will be obliged to call for the assistance of the home science department. I have nothing more to say.” The names of the students connected with the organization are: (Continued on Page 3.) ANNOUNCEMENT The editor of The Excuse desires to announce that beginning with the next number, a column devoted to the home, manners and fashions will be conducted. We have secured to edit this column at great expense and trouble, the following well known persons: Mrs. W. B. Herrick. Miss Lana A. Baldwin and Miss Lilia Harkins. Mrs. Herrick will give advice on good manners and good form. She has been known for years as an authority on this subject, and it is with great pleasure that The Excuse announces this addition to its staff. Miss Baldwin will conduct the beauty portion of this column. She has given lessons in this difficult subject for several years and we can state that her pupils have unsurpassed reputations in their line all over America and in parts of Belgrade. Miss Harkins will conduct the secret service department and will tell weekly how to get around the little annoying things of life and to get what one is searching for. There will be other contributors, but these will be the main standbys of the column. PROMINENT COLLEGE STUDENT IS CAUGHT STUDYING AT HOME It was with a distinct shock that the college body learned late yesterday afternoon that one of the best known students of the college was discovered studying at his home at 715 South Grand. The guilty party was none other than the celebrated Bull Mooser. Teddy Roosevelt. It had been noticed for several days that Mr. Roosevelt had seemed rather preoccupied, and even in the presence of several of his closest friends had seemed to be so absent minded that even his room mate had remarked at his preoccupation. Yesterday afternoon his room mate appeared on the campus, his head wrapped in a large Turkish towel, and mumbling unintelligible words to himself. When questioned by his anxious friends, he would answer nothing but. “Teddy, Teddy.” Becoming alarmed, some of them went to his room, and after forcing the door discovered Mr. Roosevelt deeply absorbed in Martin’s “Physiology.” and upon being asked the cause of his strange actions, he refused to utter a word. At the time of going to press nothing further has been learned regarding this mystery, and officers of the city report that there is a slight chance that the room mate of Mr. Roosevelt will recover. The unfortunate man was taken charge of by the city health officer and at the time that we go to press is still in his care.

It took me back o’er the shadowy track. To a well remembered scheme. There were students and profs, and freshies and sophs. A review of former years. The pleasure and fun. and work by the ton. Were mingled with hopes and fears. I entered the door as in days of yore. Just as the last bell rang: It sounded clear to my startled ear. And had a studious clang I peered in books and in hidden nooks. The library’s sole estate: Then strolled ’cross the hall for the trig roll call. As Prof. Tallman came in late. I wandered around, all over the ground. T visited cow and horse. ON HIS WAY TO AN EIGHT O’CLOCK CLASS I came up the walk and heard Cobleigh talk On the object of his course. And Miss Harkins grasped my arm and gasped. And led me back once more. To see and admire to rapture and fire. Over her brand new floor. Had just missed the car and noted how far The walk was clear to town. When patient and slow came a voice from below. Breakfast is ready, come down.” Cheer Up T HERE little girl, don’t cry. A You are going to flunk, I know, In your chemistry And biology. With your class you cannot go, Xo use for you to try. So there little girl, don’t cry. There little girl, don’t cry. Your French is hard. I know. And the golden gleams Of your graduating dreams Will fade as on you go. But you have what money won’t buy, So now little girl, don’t cry. There little girl, don’t cry, There is someone waiting I know. For your culinary arts Will win many hearts. As they did in the long ago. So cheer up for the “bye and bye.” There little girl, don’t cry. Vm. Whitworth—“That is right, because I did it. 210 life NEVER AGAIN! U� U Moutsuinn Staff (In chorus) Never, never, never iignln.' College Boosters HE pages following are filled with a few words from some of the persons who have made the publication of the 1914 Montanan possible. The staff wishes to say that it certainly appreciates the interest that they have shown in the college and its year book, and thanks them for the assistance they have given. And the staff would urge that every student, every person interested in the forward progress of the institution remember that the people whose ads appear in the following pages are the ones who help out on the tournament, make the college publications possible and do everything possible to make college life worth while for either students or faculty. It is then urged that all loyal supporters of the college do what is fair by these people and support them in return for the support they have given us. And, before going further with this volume, the staff desires to thank those who assisted in the work that has been finished, particularly those who helped in the art work. All of the art work in this volume was done under the supervision of the art department and Miss Baldwin and Miss Lane deserve special mention. Others who assisted to a greater or lesser extent are Mildred Cline, Lyle Tintinger, Evelyn Boyle, Robert Lapeyre, Jack Milburn, Max W. Kenck and Hazel Coffey. M. S.

Did You Know That the Famous Gallatin Valley ‘ ‘ The Egypt of A merica comprises the richest agricultural land in the world; that it raises more grain to the acre than any other section of the United States or Canada; that grain from the Gallatin Valley has won prizes in competition with that from all parts of the world, and that many trainloads of Gallatin Valley grain are annually shipped to foreign markets because of its superior qualities? Here Are Some of the A verage Yields Per Acre: Wheat, irrigated • • • • 65 bushels Wheat, non-irrigated 40 bushels Oats....................................70 bushels Barley..................................45 bushels Potatoes.............................. 200 bushels Timothy hay.................................4 tons THF.SF. ARE FACTS It is also a fact that approximately $6,500,COO worth of farm products were shipped into Montana in 1911 simply because of the lack of people to properly develop the agricultural resources of the state and thus supply the demand created for these products by the mining and stock raising sections. Bozeman, the metropolis of the Gallatin Valley, is only 98 miles from Butte, the greatest mining camp on earth, and only 96 miles from Helena, the capital of the state; hence, there is always a ready cash maiket for all products of the Gallatin Valley farm and garden. For these and many other reasons, the Gallatin Valley offers unsurpassed opportunities and inducements to both the homeseeker and the capitalist. If you are looking for a location where you can buy A I improved farming lands, irrigated or non-irrigated, at bargain prices; where crop failures are absolutely unknown, and where energy and ability are sure to meet with a substantial reward, then come to the Gallatin Valley. There is no better field in the Northwest today for profitable investment.

Any eye that departs from normal in it's depth, curves, strength of the various muscles attending the act of seeing, is almost sure to be called upon to do an abnormal amount of work, which results in eyestrain. In trying to remedy this strain, nature directs an extra amount of muscular effort to this organ, causing a greater fullness of the bloodvessels of the head. It is now very easy to understand why this excess of blood to the brain would result in those dull, persistent headaches. Drugs are of no benefit in these cases, you have to get at the cause. Properly fitted glasses supply the remedy. See that your eyes are examined by a qualified Optometrist. An Optometrist is one who measures your eyes and adapts lenses for same, without the use of drugs. An Optician is one who attends to the mechanical side of the work, such as lens grinding, frame adjusting and repairing, etc. We Are Optometrists and Opticians H A. PEASE CO.
