Cabinet C411 Williams is one of those fellows who is willing to put work before pleasure. This was shown about a year ago, when he cut out paying his respects to the fair sex, and he has thus far succeeded in abiding by his principles. He shines in class, is loved by all, and is a worthy example to follow.. NORMAN D. BEVIS ....,... .cc.......s..c........ .,,.,e.,c lVl i . Healthy, Ohio Philophronea Y. M. C. A., A. E.

P477 ':1 E 'zE'N ' I 'GFS' - a I Senior Class History By the time the eyes of many readers chance upon these pages, the class of l9l3 will have said farewell to old Otterbein, and each member will be busy in the world, endeavoring to bring honor and not disgrace upon his alma mater. It is with mingled feelings of joy and sadness that we write this last word for the school we love, for we are loath to leave associations so sweet and dear. The past four years have been delightful ones. We have had our battles, the most note-worthy of these being the scrimmage with the doughty class of 'I4 in the road west of town, at midnight. f'Twas the night of the Freshman push , As Sophomores, we accepted the challenge of the Freshmen to a tug-of-war contest, and dragged them unceremoniously through the waters of Alum Creek, on a bleak and cold November day. The class has had her pushes --many of them, and jolly occa- sions they were. She has had her representatives in athletics, oratory, and debate, and in all contests, whether physical or intellectual, they have done credit to their class. Our class is the second largest ever graduated from the institution. Members come from many states: from those bordering on the Atlantic to those touching the Pacific. Her members have been obedient and dutiful students: seldom, if ever, being called into the sanctum sanctorum for a private interview with W. G. C. The debt we owe to the school and to her professors can never be estimated. Remembrances of them will linger long in our memories. Our associations with them have been pleasant, agreeable and inspiring. The time spent, the sacrifices made, are as nothing compared to the advantages which we have enjoyed during these, the best years of our lives. As we leave her halls to pursue our several ways, knowing not what lies before us as we enter upon the duties and responsibilities of life, may we go, never faltering, never wavering, assured that the high ideals and noble purposes planted within our bosoms by our four years' sojourn among her walls have fitted us for true and right living. May the strength of purpose which we have achieved while here make us willing to undertake the hard and difficult things, to put into the world more than we take from it, to live lives of altruism and service, and to be a credit to the institution from which we have gone forth. May our powers be used to scatter cheer, to ameliorate the sufferings of humanity, and to spread good throughout the entire world. May the reading of these pages, in years to come, recall sweet memories and revive old friendships, which the class has striven to engender in the hearts of each one of Otterbein's friends and students. Goodbye, old Otterbein! May your fame be heralded wherever man is foundg may your triumphs be told, and your praises sung, until the end of time! R. E.. P.

A., QQ: Treasurer of Athletic Board Q03 Baseball Man- ager f4Qg Cartoonist for Otterbein Review Although Trax is of a quiet nature and takes life rather easy, yet he does not have a parallel when it comes down to school spirit. He will cut classes, lose sleep, yes, miss his meals, in order to rouse up a little enthusiasm. He has lately come into prominence as a cartoonist, and we can prophesy nothing but success for him in the future. RUTH BRUNDAGE ....,...,....... ......,............,,,............. .,..,.......,.....,.... W e sterville, Ohio Philalethea Ruth states that she has graduated once-also that she has occupied a front row seat in chapel for four years. just think of the appalling number of chapel talks she has been compelled to listen to' in that time! However, we cannot see that she is any the worse for her college experiences. She seems to be just the same bright, jolly, clever girl as ever. Her greatest ability is in music. Roscoe B.

His motto is Never let studies interfere with pleasure. As a result he stars more in society than in class. CHARLES WILLARD WHITE ,........o.....,..........................,,...,..
