Justus Agriculture r c gar D(tZ Park College 1875 to 1925 Almost half a century has passed since the founding of Park College. This time has been one of continual, though often slow and uncer¬ tain progress. The changes on the campus and in the curriculum, and the growth of the college in general are probably not fully appreciated ex¬ cept by the older members of the Faculty and early alumni of the institution. Once a rough, hilly spot of rocks and clay and woods, the campus has been transformed into beautiful terraces lined with shrubs and flowers. Buildings have risen, faithfully served their time, and given way to newer and finer structures as necessity has demanded and the means permitted. Practically all has been modified by the chang¬ ing times except what is familiarly known as “the old Park spirit’’—the spirit of endeavor, of prog¬ ress, and of success, which still pervades the col¬ lege atmosphere and inspires- all to greater achievement in scholarship, forensics, athletics and in all Christian endeavor. In 1837 Col. George S. Park, a pioneer of the early west, settled on the present site, of Park- ville, and with the hope of starting a great com¬ mercial center, laid out the village now known as Parkville. It was also the dream of Col. Park to found an institution for the education of needy students and for this purpose, in 1851, he re¬ served a portion of his land. The slavery ques¬ tion and the war that followed brought trouble sometimes into this section and the idea had to be abandoned for several years, for the Presby¬ terian Board, to which Col. Park applied for aid, was not able to help him with his project. Dur¬ ing that time, when mob law ruled high. Col. Park’s life was often endangered because of his liberal attitude toward the question of slavery. As the owner of the “Parkville Luminary ’ a pa¬ per of considerable influence, Col. Park suffered the loss of his press at the hands of a mob which threw it into the Missouri River in 1855. About the year 1875, Rev. E. B. Sherwood, a pioneer Presbyterian pastor, discovered a young educator. Rev. John A. McAfee, in a small town in Kansas, who had worked his way through col¬ lege and who wished to give his life to aiding the youth of the country to secure an education. It was an unusual pleasure and opportunity for Mr. Sherwood, later President of the Board of Trustees of Park College, to bring together early in the year 1875 the two men. Col. George S. Park and Dr. John A. McAfee. The result of this meeting was the founding of “Park College for Training Christian Workers.” 34 i92.a cy ? n Q (Sar DQX) A large hotel, which stood west of the rail¬ way station, and one hundred acres of land, gifts of Col. Park, composed the original physical equipment of the institution. Work was begun at once, on April 12, 1815, and the hotel, known as the “Old College Building,” or “No. 1,” was transformed into a combination dormitory, class room building, office quarters, dining hall and kitchen, for use until more room could be pro¬ vided. There the “Original Seventeen” students attended their first classes on May 12, 1815. There the Park College Family originated from which has developed the family work system of today. Before 1900 old “No. i” was remodeled, renamed Woodward Hall in memory of Rev. George S. Woodward, a former pastor of the Parkville church, and used as a dormitory for men. In 1908 the ground was sold and the stone materials of the building used to construct the present Woodward Hall at the north end of the campus. Although the actual work of the college began in 1815, the official charter from the state was not granted until the first class was graduated in 1819. During the four years that had passed, the college had grown so rapidly that there was an urgent need for more room. After the de¬ struction by fire in 1883 of an old warehouse used as a dormitory for men, work was begun on Copley Hall. This building, which formerly stood on the terrace southeast of Alumni Hall, was completed in 1881: and named for one of the most loyal supporters of the institution, Josiah Copley. For thirty-five years “Old Copley” sheltered one hundred and two men each year. In 1919, through the generosity of Irs. Mary C. Thaw, a splendid new stone structure, Copley- Thaw, was completed, being erected in memory of Mrs. Thaw’s father, Josiah Copley, and hus¬ band, William Thaw. The old building was torn down and passed into memory. The present Cop- ley-Thaw was erected over the spot where for¬ merly stood Snyder Hall, a dormitory for women. By the gifts of land and money from Col. Park and Mrs. Cyrus McCormick, a new chapel build¬ ing was finished in 1887, and named IMcCormick Chapel. This building is second in age only to the Park House and in its long life has perhaps served in a greater and more varied capacity than any campus structure. It was also one of the first products of student labor. The bricks were made in the college brickyard on the site of the athletic field of today; the lime, sand, and stones were taken from the hills of the college land and most of the mechanical labor was furnished by college students. 0 Id Pq rk ddous e. • • • 35 _ 1 QfZCL 1 :j G C =5 icY pvr 7 l W The exact replica of Bergen Hall is seen in the present “Old Carpenter Shop” below Nickel ter¬ race. After its completion, in 1887, the hall stood above the old brick yard, opposite the present “Faculty Row” and was used for Academy dorm¬ itory and recitation rooms. Later the materials were transported to the present location of the carpenter shop and used in the construction and operation of a planing mill. Another ancient landmark, now removed, was a little parsonage situated on the terrace west of the chapel. Scott House, named for the first young man to graduate from Park, Winfield T. Scott, was the home of several notable men con¬ nected with the institution. In 1890, the outlook for the future was exceed¬ ingly dark as the college mourned at the graves of both Col. Park and Dr. John A. McAfee. Within one week during Commencement season of that year the two who had given their utmost toward the success of the institution passed to a well earned rest. The responsibility of the work then descended upon their families and suc¬ ceeding administrators, who with equal faith and trust carried on the work of Christian education. The spirit of Colonel and Mrs. Park lived on in their daughter, the late Mrs. George A. Law¬ rence. Park has lost its dearest friend by the passing of Mrs. Lawrence, March 17, 1924. Through the interest and gifts of Mr. and Mrs. Lawrence the water works system of the college became the efficient system that it is today. The college heating plant and former lighting plant, built on the site of the “Farkinllc Liimimry ' ’ building, was also their gift. Their generosity is evidenced further in the beautiful home of our President, in the lately remodeled Park House, Mrs. Lawrence’s girlhood home, and in our hand¬ some library furnishings which their gifts com¬ pleted. Mrs. Lawrence lives in the hearts of many students, alumni and Faculty members, for through smaller gifts and more intimate help she has contributed to the success of almost every organization and every department in the college. The greatest and most enduring monument to the student labor of the early days is Mackay Hall, the administration building. Work was be¬ gun in 1886 and continued as long as the receipt of gifts and money allowed. After years of pa¬ tient toil and waiting, the building was occupied March 13, 1893. Headquarters for the Family work department was formerly the E. R. Westcott Store and Of¬ fice Building which is now the College Press Building. The self-help department was perma¬ nently established in Labor Hall upon its com¬ pletion in 1906. 36 C 1 192. T 1 1G£ C |cv ar 0 iW DQ:z Two important buildings on the campus were the generous gifts of the late Anthony Dey of New York City. The Charles Smith Scott As¬ tronomical Observatory was erected on Observa¬ tory Hill in 1898 and Waverly Hospital, situated on the hill above the site of old Sherwood Hall, met a very great need upon its completion in 1912. One of the finest school libraries in the state was provided in 1923 by the completion of the old Carnegie library building of 1908. The Wake¬ field Science Hall, when completed, will furnish excellent class rooms and laboratories for more thorough study of the physical sciences. The publications of the college have been rep¬ resentative of the various activities and phases of college life for both students and Faculty. The oldest of them all. The Record, was first issued in 1879, the year in which Park was officially chartered by the state. Since that date, The Rec¬ ord has regularly reached many thousands of friends and kept them informed of the progress of the institution. The Stylus was first published in 1896 with our present History professor, Roy V. Magers, as its first editor-in-chief. For several years the stu¬ dent publication was a monthly resume of events edited by the senior class. In recent years, how¬ ever, the paper has been edited by the class in Journalism under the direction of a popularly elected editor and business manager and the head of the Department of English. The Park Rcviczv was edited and published by the Faculty of the college and was composed of editorials, book reviews and papers by Fac¬ ulty members on literary, historical, philosophical and educational topics. This paper, under the editorship of Dr. Thomas G. Burt, then head of the Department of History, was first published in 1899, and was continued for several years. A record was made in the publication of the first Narva which has not been equaled. The matter of publishing the annual was presented to the student body on February 22, 1901, and the complete book was ready for distribution at Com¬ mencement week of that year. The name, Narva, was the suggestion of Dr. Charles H. Crooks, ’01, now a medical missionary in Lampang, Siam. As the first Narva was a celebration of the silver an¬ niversary of the college—so is this, the latest, an attempt to })ortray a half century of college his¬ tory hy a Golden Jubilee edition. Since the first Commencement exercises in 1879, when four students received the A.B. degree, forty-five classes have been graduated into rg£ c 1 jss: D(tZ the various fields of work in the world. Of ap¬ proximately thirteen hundred alumni, twenty per cent have entered the ministerial and missionary work, both in home and foreign fields; twenty- five per cent have served and are serving in the educational field, and ten per cent are in the busi¬ ness world. Three graduates are college presidents, and thirty-two others are college professors. The profession of law accounts for twenty of the num¬ ber. Physicians and medical students, about fifty in number, are serving the world in various coun¬ tries in every possible way. It is well known that Park students are scattered all over the world, but this is more strikingly apparent when it is found that the alumni are now living lives of service in forty-six states and territories, and twenty-two foreign countries. From the Park College of 1875, housed in the Old College Building, has grown the Park of to¬ day, housed in eighteen buildings. Her girls have homes in the six girls’ dormitories—Sunset Hall, Gillette House, Eleanor Chesnut Hall, Alumni Hall and Terrace Cottage. Her boys live in Cop- ley-Thaw Hall and Woodward Hall. In each dormitory there is a Park mother who helps wonderfully in binding the ties of the Park Family. The office of President in Park tests the mettle of men and Park has been fortunate in her Pres¬ idents, for they have stood the test. Her first President, Dr. John A. McAfee, was succeeded in 1902 by his son, Lowell M. McAfee, who served until June, 1913. Dr. A. L. Wolfe, pres¬ ent Professor of Latin and Greek, served as act¬ ing President until the arrival of our present President, Dr. Frederick W. Hawley, in Decem¬ ber, 1915. The students of today know Dr. Hawley as a fair-minded, earnest man who, with all the duties of a Park President, is never too busy to help solve personal problems. Each stu¬ dent feels that he has a true friend in our Pres¬ ident. These men have given the best of their lives to Park and their reward lies in the knowledge of work well done and in the winning of a place in the hearts of studentsj- Faculty and friends. The lives of the members of the Faculty of Park have been lives of service. Their hands have been guiding hands to the students and touch of personal interest has never been lacking. The scholastic standing of Park and the world’s esteem for her constitute a silent tribute to her Faculty and administrators. The Faculty of to¬ day is’a part of the Park Family and this great Family, in all its parts, Student Body, Faculty, and Administration, is working forward for the “Glory of Old Park.” , Wav crl dlbS iLql G C 38 1952 . 0 iL Fgac PSTT The Alumni Association OFFICERS R.

Editor of Aliimniad In the spring of 1879, the Alnmni Association of Park Col¬ lege was organized by the first graduating class. It has grown from a membership of four to one of a thousand three hundred and twenty-five. Those who have received honorary degrees from Park and a few who have been elected honorary members are considered members of the Association also. The object of the i lumni Association as stated in the first constitution is “to assist and advance the interests of Park Col¬ lege and to cherish feelings of brotherhood and friendship among its graduates.” In addition to fulfilling the original object, the Association has enlarged its aim and reaches out into a wider field of usefulness and activity. It strives to keep in touch with each member, thus serving as an information bureau at the serv¬ ice of its members, the College, and the cause of Christian educa¬ tion in general. The executive board handles the business of the Association. The Annual Meeting is held each year on the day before Com¬ mencement, and, together with the banquet which follows, fur¬ nishes the opportunity for receiving the graduating class, review¬ ing old experiences and forming new friendships. 39 fj=-9 _ i92,a d r c -i i ■ ' ' —-‘I DQ:d Our Classes of Yesteryear ’79 Piper, Helen Hough Scott, Winfield T.

Perhaps the reason that they lost the tie-up and the barrel rush was that they were new and were not expecting the tricks of the wiser sophomores. However, they regained their freshman dignity in the spring by winning the frosh-soph debate in April and the V errill Declamatory Contest in May. They were drawn together by inter-class basketball games, class prayer meetings and two class feeds. Their sophomore year was marked by the winning of two events of out¬ standing importance—the inter-class basketball championship and the frosh-soph debate. The latter was a tradition-breaking feat. As juniors the class of ’23 maintained their high scholastic standard and held a prominent place in forensic activities. The 1922 Narva, which the class published, and the Junior-Senior Banquet were perhaps the most noteworthy accomplishments of the year. The class of ’23 was represented in all college activities during its senior year. The editor-in-chief and business manager of The Stylus, the president of the Forensic Council and Pi Kappa Delta were members of this class. It was represented on the inter-collegiate debating squad, basketball squad, glee club and choir and took the leading part in procuring a student body constitution. One year away from Park finds the members of this class in various occu¬ pations. Out of the sixty-eight who were graduated, there are forty-one teachers, fifteen graduate students, nine in business, one in the missionary field and two married. They are still striving to live up to their motto, B Square. The following, whose pictures do not appear, received diplomas: Wilson Hutchison, Marie .Lively, Jeannie Blacklock, Walter Porter, Janet Stone, Rachel Stanger, Mrs. Alice Piper Brown, Clark Foster, Boyd Palmer, Ruth Piper, Ruth Wood. 46 y V cA K V cXo Jj(Srrc ■ rG£ C 1 SCMOR 49 e c 1 192 . 0 - 1 rG£)C 1 arvToJ DCici Class of 1924 OFFICERS Paul Dodd .

Cheer Leader Colors— Green and Black Motto— “Our Anchor Holds Class Hymn— “Confidence “We live in deeds, not years; in thoughts, not breaths; In feelings, not in figures on a dial. We should count time by heart throbs. He most lives Who thinks most, feels the noblest, acts the best.” It seems but yesterday that we, as freshmen, embarked upon our scholastic voyage through Park College. We were a carefree lot, as all freshmen are, yet we received our share of hard knocks, too. The first few weeks were enlivened by the victory over the Class of ’28 in the annual Barrel Rush. However, the sophomores took their revenge the following spring when they won the judges’ decision in the Freshman-Sophomore Debate. During our sophomore year our guiding star again failed us for we were forced to resign the victor’s title to the freshmen in both the Barrel Rush and the Freshman-Sophomore Debate. The humiliation of these defeats was some¬ what alleviated in that we won the Class Basketball Championship. The Junior-Senior Banquet was the most notable and successful accomplish¬ ment of our junior year. ’Ids true, we have not always topped the Collegiate Honor Roll, yet our scholastic record has been one of which we need not be ashamed. We have been well rejiresented on collegiate debate squads and two of Park’s orators were chosen from our class. As we approach Commencement Day, we are filled more and more with a deep and sincere appreciation for what Park has done for us. We are grateful for the friendships which have bound us together. When we leave this campus and continue our way through life, may it be said of us, ” ‘Our Anchor Holds’ in loyalty to our Alma Mater through service to our fellowmen.” 50 _ 192 . 0 - =n- tiSX )( - IL Jj Mary Agnes Lefker Major; Biology “She hath a voice which soul from senses sunders Butler, Missouri Lucei ne.

In the spring we won the fresh-soph debate by a 5 to 0 decision after which no Sophomore dared speak with condescension to a Fresh¬ man. Although our Sophomore year was rather uneventful we won the Verrill Declamatorv contest in April. We also supplied a large percent of the intercol¬ legiate basketball men and debaters. The state orator for this year was chosen from our ranks. ' Phis year we are supplying seven of the eleven intercollegiate debaters. As upperclassmen we are enjoying the fruits of a youth well spent for early in our career we learned the wisdom of putting first things first. As a result our schol¬ astic attainments are among the most brilliant on record. For three years we have led in scholarship and at the same time made an enviable record in all forms of outside activities. We have weathered our storms, overcome our disappointments, gloried in victories and persevered in our loyalty to class and to college. In short, we are a most remarkable class! 62 G c: 1952.0- _ -IL = 1 our rG£ C (ggr DQ:Z) liUKKWALL, HkKMAN FuSON Paiclicvard Major; liiology “The best-conditioned and nnx ' earied In doing courtesies.’ ' Student X’olunteer Itand; Cosmo])olitan Club spirit Ijloom, Hilda Elmira Callio|)ean Majort English “I nott ' ledye conies of learning tee retain ' d Bucklan ' d, Cieorge IJ.

The fact that this was an unusual group was disclosed during the Ciiapel hour of the very first day of school when the Dean announced that the Class of ’2() was in every way an exceptionally fine and jiromising class. On September 2r)th the upper-classmen presented a document in which there were some hints of goodly advice and many rules. Whth wisdom beyond their years the Class of ’2(5 took the good advice and soon learned that to obey the rules was also wise. I ' his class was soon organized, choosing for its president (leorge Fishhurn, a very able man. Under his enthusiastic leadership, the Class of ’2(5 marched straight through a year of victory. The first contest from which the class emerged victorious was the Fresh¬ man-Sophomore Barrel Rush. As a result of this victory, the freshmen rules were removed on November ,31. ' I ' he Class of ’2(5 then proceeded to show their prowess in basketball. From an abundance of good material, a team was selected which won the championshij) in the inter-class tournament. As the inter-collegiate debate season came on, the Class of ’2(5 showed its loyal support of college activities by constructing fine big bonfires for victory celebrations. In the spring the Class of ’2(5 again knew victory when their debaters won the decision of the judges in the Annual Freshman-Sophomore Debate. So ended the first triumphant year of the Class of ’2G. In the fall of 19253, Ralph Jennings was elected president. He is now acting- in that capacity and is earnest and dependable in carrying on the work started. On October, nineteen chosen men pulled twenty-five hundred pounds of struggling freshmen two successive times into the I’latte River, thus making themselves again victors in the inter-class struggle. The class was defeated in the inter-class basketball tournament. The scholarship has been raised in the past year. One finds very few sophomores on the “poor and failing” list while on the other hand a large num¬ ber of them do excellent work. ' File members of the Class of ’2(5 feel that they have spent two very happy and profitable years at Park, and look forward toward the acquiring in the two years to come, of all those vorthwhile things which are to be gained in one’s college life. 74 ICAQC_ _ 1 iQO n.

Treasurer Colors —Maroon and White September 11, marked a new epoch in the history of Park College. Sophomores and npper-classmen congregated at the Parkville Union Station to take under their wings the customary throng of shy, timid youth. The warmth of the September suu had engulfed the group in an atmosphere of dull silence, as they w atched the rapidly approaching passenger train. The giant locomotive, an emblem of power, came thundering in and discharged one hundred thirty-five (135) “pusillanimous’’ frosh, representing the very elements of strength, determi¬ nation, vivacity and comeliness. d ' he first feature of the Class of ’21 is that the members were chosen from a list of applicants numbering approximately lOOO, and one-third were high school V’aledictorians. With this valuable recommendation as the foremost fea¬ ture the class has furnished several leaders in the college. When the Dean announced the first semester honor roll for scholarship, he revealed the fact that a freshman girl had made the highest average. The orchestra was in need of an able accompanist when school began and a freshman girl was chosen for the position. In addition several freshmen have been listed as players in the orchestra. The membership of the Masquers was increased and a number of freshmen accejited as members. In the plays already given, the class has been well repre¬ sented. Fortunately we have a representative body of executives in our group. A boy and a girl each hold a state C. E. office; two of our boys have executive positions on the local Y. M. C. A. organization, while one holds an office in the State Y. M. C. A. Council. One girl holds an executive position on the local Y. W. C. A. organization. Since I’ark’s colors are known so widely because of her forensic activities it would be well to mention that two boys and two girls of the Class of ’21 are members of the inter-collegiate debate squad. The work of our freshman debat¬ ers is too well known for ordinary mention. In athletics the freshmen have emerged from two events with the laurel leaves of victory j erched upon their brows. The first event was the class basket¬ ball tournament which our well organized team won. In the second event, the Thanksgiving cross-country race, freshmen took first and second places. In addition to all of these qualities and qualifications, the freshman class excells in youth and beauty! “If one can dream and not make dreams his master’’ let him go with us during our four years at “dear old Park.” 78 G C ■ _ _ IL J.

Henry Salveter as president deserves commendation for his success in steering the college ship of state safely to anchor. His work was not always easy. We will remember him as a true statesman. Bernard Meland never failed in the performance of the duties of Adce- President. He was always willing to assume command of college affairs when called upon by the president, and fulfilled his office in a manner entirely satis¬ factory at all times. To Thelma Gates we owe our thanks for a well-kept record of events and wise custody of the Student Body funds. Ashby Steele will always he remembered for the gymnastics which called forth our pep on all occasions. He was a live yell-leader and never failed to enthuse us when he called for the “Old Park Yell.” “That’s rotten!

It isn’t always an easy thing to stand between a fair-minded Faculty and an energetic, fun-loving Student Body. “Lonny’’ constantly poured oil on the troubled waters and all was calm. He was loved by all and will be long remem¬ bered by the 1923-1924 students. John Moore was Lonny’s able assistant as Vice-President. John always stood for the highest ideals of Park. Debater as he was, he was always ready for any situation which might arise. Ihe Secretary-Treasurer has to guard the family pocketbook and keep a close record of all the activities of imjiortance. Mary Lefker attended to these duties as only Mary could. Marion Elliott only needed to jump the railing in the chapel and we were instantly on our feet and the yells shook the cha])el building. iVnd oh ! those pe|) jirograms.

The original “Cu Cu” was organized in 1921 and each year since that time the student body president has selected two men from each literary organization to serve as “pepsters” on the club. The Cu Cus stage pep programs, send debaters off to victory and serve as general keepers of Park’s royal pep mascot, “the White Mule”. This year the canary and wine clown suits which were added to the equipment of the club un¬ doubtedly helped in arousing pep. The Cu Cus in their “dress” suits make an animated and colorful scene as they lead the student body in yells. 86 i92. n 3( 1 rG£ C 1 DCt D 87 ---- 1-ll_ IG C-5? 192.4- 1 [eZKi it r= : G: rG£ C imar 9oik DCtZ) Y.

Aleetings are held every two weeks on Sunday evenings after the regular church service. The meetings consist of devotional services, informal discussions, trial sermons by the stu¬ dents, or talks from some faculty member or visitor. Members of the Ministerial Association take an active part in local and extension field work. Several of the members fill the pulpits of churches of the surrounding communities. Some are on gospel teams which carry the message of Christ to missions and to the young people of various churches. The men of the Association know Christ as their personal Saviour. They believe they have been called to preach the gospel. Realizing the need today for preaching Christ they hope through the work of the Association to lead other men into the gospel ministry. 90 192,0- Wtx_ JJ Vgoc 1 ec | First row, left to right ' . M.

Treasurer The volunteer band was organized at Park when Robert P. Wilder and John R. Mott were visiting colleges of the country and working to establish a definite volunteer movement among students. This organization is one of the oldest on the campus. The volunteer group has had a growing Christian influence and its forty-five members are represented in all the various activities of the campus. The college student who signs the Declaration Card expresses his desire to he associated with the national movement and becomes a volunteer. The Declaration Card reads, ‘Tt is my purpose if God permit to become a foreign mis¬ sionary.” Academy students who are looking forward to service on the foreign field may become associate members. Ihe purpose of the Volunteer Band is to bring all students who are planning to become foreign missionaries together in a common fellowship in order that their purpose may be strengthened. Through the Volunteer Band students are brought into contact with similar groups of other colleges for mutual strength and fellowship. Missionary education and instruction concerning definite fields and professions furnish valuable information for the volunteers and it is their work to put the challenge of the missionary enterprise before the other students of the campus and to meet together in prayer that the great work for the Master might be given consideration by every individual. 91 i9aa c- jg C i92.a -GSJC 93 1 man a. iW ■ ■ ■ GOC 5 ic Lucerne Club Colors: Bine and Bine President .

A small company of Swiss miards from Lucerne were called to defend it but the mob was o too strong for them and they died—rather than surrender. The deed was almost forgotten until one day an artist, Thorwaldsen, decided to commemorate the event by a stone carving. He chose the side of a mountain on the shores of Lake Lucerne. He worked long and hard at his task, and at last from the white rock wall, a dying lion appeared. A spear had pierced its back hut it fell on its weapons, defending even in death the lilies of France. The lion of Lucerne is a symbol today of the bravery of that tiny company of Swiss guards. Many years later in 1896 a group of Park College girls gathered to form a literary club. They had formerly belonged to Cheever Society for both men and women, but when it was finally disbanded, these girls, feeling the need of something to take its place, organized Lucerne Club. They chose their name from the T.ake of Lucerne, their emblem from the Lion of Lucerne, their colors from the blue waters of the lake, and their flower from a tiny blue flower which grows on its banks. For their motto, they chose, “Scientia, Eloquentia, et Amicitia”. Miss Adah Brokaw was elected the first President. Lucerne’s brother club, Lowell, was organized at the same time, and with the help of each other, of the President and Fac¬ ulty, and above all with the help of God, these clubs have ad¬ vanced and have become stronger and stronger until they are as we know them today. Lowells and Lucernes are proud of their records and are ever striving to keep their standards on high, by each one’s doing his best in whatever special field his talent happen to lie. In victory or defeat, in work or play, “To the dear Blue and Blue We shall ever be true. For it carries us all Back to dear Chee ver Hall Where we ever long to be: T have such good times together In all sorts of weather; We will always remember The dear old Blue and Blue.” 96 _ 192. _ -a rG£ C 1 (Snr Lowell Club Lowell Club was founded on January 10, ISiKi, when cer¬ tain members of the disbanded societies of Park, Cheever and Bullard met in Cheever Hall and formed an organization with the purpose “to develop excellence in oratory, debate and ath¬ letics ; to promote good fellowship; to familiarize ourselves with parliamentary procedure.” Something of the spirit of the founders and pioneers of Lowell may he caught from their motto, which, with a constantly changing stream of members, has remained unchanged through a period of twenty-eight years. That motto, short and to the point, is “D-I-G”. A few weeks after its organization Lowell Club united with its present sister club. Lucerne, and the combined clubs selected blue and blue for the colors of the L. L. C.’s. That Lowell Club has to some extent fulfilled its purpose as quoted from the preamble of the constitution is shown by the fact that since the foundation of the third men ' s club, Orion, in 1913, Lowell has won thirty of fifty-five inter-club contests, in¬ cluding baseball, basketball, track, cross-country, oratory and debate. Since the publication of the last Narva (1922) the record of Lowell has been no less exceptional. In 1922-23 honors in oratory, cross-country and baseball went to the wearers of the Blue and Blue, while in debate Lowell received four of the votes of nine judges, Orion received three and Parchevard two. Of four of the 1923-24 contests held previous to this writing Lowell has won three—first place in cross-country, first in de¬ bate, and first, second and third in oratory. A’ictory in these contests may mean much or little but each participant is a better man for having tried. This activity in inter-club contests has not led to the neglect of the weekly programs, those all-important gatherings which finally determine the strength or weakness of a literary organization. Through the Board of Censors an efficient means of providing interesting programs is found and members are given not only opi)ortunity to exercise the talent they may have but also encouragement to undertake new lines of work. Much more might be said of the ])urposes and ideals of Lowell Club, but they are all directed to one and the highest goal which a literary organization at Park might have—that is to make of each member a more worthv Park student. 97 6 C 1 QQ.CI _ )G li 1 Jj- IgQC .(SSL D(tz Lowell Cl ub Colors: Blue and Blue OFFICERS FOR YEAR First Term Second Term Third Term President ... . .Douglas Alagers Donald Alagers Hugh Jones Viee-President ... ..Arthur Shaw Walter Idnder Vernon Headley Secretary.. .. ..W ' illard Cowen Fred Hall Wallace Wolverton Trcasurcr . ..Ralph jennings throughout the year i Donald Alagers Board of Censors .. .■ Arthur Shaw Same as First Hugh WVlfe ( Floward Aloffitt ( Replaced Moffitt) Assistant Censor.... . .Wallace W ' olverton Brown Scott Willard Cowen Sergeant-at-Anns _ .Hugh Wolfe Douglas Alagers Robert Cox Chorister ..... _Murray Kunkel Robert Arnold Dan Westfall Stylus Reporter __ ..

It came to he the general oj)inion that more conld be accomplished if the girls and boys had separate societies so in 1898 the original three were disbanded and four new societies formed, two for girls and two for boys. Only this much of the old coeducational system remained: the societies were formed into “brother and sister” societies and as brothers and sisters the members have ever since been the truest of friends and the most loyal of allies in all the pleas¬ ures and activities of college life. d ' he Calliopean Literary Society was organized at that early time. The name is derived from that of Calliope, the muse of epic poetry, the most noble and heroic figure of all the muses. Her chosen color, gold, symbol of true worth, is the color of the Marcenial rose from which her emblem is taken. Her “brother” society is the Parchevard Literary Society, organized in the same year. The combined name of these two is Parchevard-Calliopean Literary Societies; the colors, purple and gold; the emblem, the diamond. These societies are well united, working together, playing together, and learning together. In endeavoring to uphold the glory of her name, Calliopean has wrought in the organization something of the virility, clear-sightedness and love of beauty which we admire so much in the ancient Greeks. She has also pledged herself to maintain a high standard of loyalty to the College and all for which it stands. Each member strives to up¬ hold these ideals throughout her college course. (dn Monday nights the girls meet in Park Hall, the home of the Parchevard-Calliopeaii Literary Societies. This year we cooperated with the Parchevards in refurnishing the hall with upholstered wicker furniture. Joint sessions and meetings of the two societies are held there. At the meetings literary and musical programs are given. Talent within the society is used and developed. Before the formal meeting begins and during the intermission before business sessions, the girls have time to make and to strengthen friendships that will last, in memory or reality, throughout a lifetime. Calliopean enters wholeheartedly into all the phases of college life. Her girls stand high in scholarship. She is always well rep¬ resented in all college activities. Progress is her slogan and each year brings material for progress as the new girls come into the society, bringing with them new life, new hope and new aspirations. The outlook for Calliopean in the future is indeed bright. 102 6 C i92.a GO ; (tD ' r c 1 DQZ Parchevard Literary Society Colors: Purple and Gold OFFICERS FOR YEAR First Term Second I ' crm Third Term President . -...Paul Dodd Richard Peak x shby Steele Vice-President . ---.Richard Peak Fukuji Sasaki Wkallace Edgar Secretary .-. ....Claude Wardlaw Grant Mason Howard Hill Treasurer . ...Luther Clayton throng] bout the year Censor.. . —Mark x ndrews Charles Eckels Wilber Harper Assista)it Censor.. . —Gharles Eckels Wilber Harper Joe Harritt Critic . ....John Moore Paul Dodd Alonzo Peeke Attorney . —.Arthur Harris Carl Taylor Luther Clayton A rtist . —Seizo Ogino Irwin Sweet Frank Smith Stylus Reporter . — Fred Kenower Joe Harritt Richard Peak Sergeant-at-Arms . — Herman Burkwall Thomas Toy Thomas Toy Social Secretary ... —Thomas Toy Walton Gordon Dallas McLaren Journalist . —Dallas McLaren throughout the year Athletic Manager . —Wilber Harper throughout the year Assistant Athletic Manager... ...Wallace Edgar throughout the year Cheer Leader . — Charles Eckels throng bout the year Assistant Cheer Leader. . —Ashby Steele x shby Steele Robert Orton ROLL Seniors Moore, John Firth, Neal Dodd, Paul Edgar, Wallace Peak, Richard Peeke, Alonzo Sasaki, F.

The first societies were composed of both men and women, hut in the new societies the men and women were separated. However, since the founders of this organization did not wish to give uj) the old traditions and names altogether, they took the name of Parchevard, derived from the old names. Park, Cheever and Bullard Literary Societies. They allied themselves with Calliopean as their sister society, took as their motto, “Practice. Perseverance, and Success,” and as their joint colors. Purple and Gold. Out of the meager ' heginning of this society has developed the Parchevard of today. Ifach memher assumed his responsihility in making Parchevard a real literary society. Soon a hare room was finished and a hardwood floor was carefully laid hy the memhers. From year to year the hall has been improved and new furnishings added. During the last two years Parchevard has tasted of both the cup of victory and that of defeat, hut throughout each year she has shown herself capable of winning her share of victories and distinctions. Last year a loyal Parchevard, Kingsley Given, won first honors for Park in the Regional Pi Kappa Delta Oratorical Contest. One inter-club debate was won and one was lost. In basketball the ])urple and gold team won the inter-club series,—but lost in baseball. In the inter-club Field I Ieet, Parchevard won by a wide margin. Opening of the school year, 1924, found each member of the society filled with renewed interest and determination. The An¬ nual Parchevard Banquet in Kansas City during the first week of school, gave exemplification of a s])irit of loyalty and unity within the society. Here it was that the plans and goals of the year were outlined by the President. Parchevard was to have its full quota of new men and i)lans for refurnishing the hall were definitely laid out. Sign-up came, bringing a new membersbip of strong and loyal men. The president organized forces for raising money for their hall pro¬ gram, and before tbe first semester expired, $406.00 bad been raised. Debate and oratory were begun, and Parchevard was unfortunate in losing both inter-club debates. Two of ber men participated in the local Harry S. Jewett Oratorical Contest. 1 he basketball season was a great success for Parchevard, for it closed once more with the team as inter-cluh champions. 4 he inter-club baseball, tennis and t rack contests of tins year are contests toward which Parchevard looks with great interest. She hopes that in these contests she may acquit herself well and close victoriously one of her most successful years. However, Parchevard inter-club events play only a secondary role. She stands for a broader spirit—for the Lark spirit, and she has claim upon men who stand high as leaders of the activities of the student body of the colleere. Parchevard is proud of the fellowshij) and companionship which exists among her members. Above all her accomplishments, Parche¬ vard holds dearest these things—fellowshij) and maintenance of ideals. 106 192a ssk: v A a.

Thirty-two girls were charter members of the new club which chose for its colors the buff and green of the outdoor yorld, for its flower the lotus blossom, for its emblem the Egyptian scarab, and for its motto, “Optimis Conari”. Aurora helped her brother club, Orion, decorate and furnish La yrence Hall, where the weekly meet¬ ings are held, making of the two old class rooms giyen for the pur¬ pose. a hall and a home of which to be proud. Succeeding years haye marked the dawning of opportunity for many girls because of this group and the ideals upon which they founded Aurora. Year by year as she receiyes into membership new girls who desire to become bearers of the light, Aurora giyes and gains new strength. Year by year she has come to the foreground in literary, scholastic, and religious fields. Her members haye been ac- tiye in forensics. Her programs haye helped to deyelop latent power and haye deepened appreciations. She has always held her scholastic standards high and the club may well be proud of the classroom rec¬ ord of her members. To the religious organizations on the campus, members of O. A. C. haye giyeu earnest Christian hying and leader¬ ship. In all their efforts, they haye tried to keep their motto steadily before them and haye tried to striye for the highest. ' khrough the years, each day that dawns at Park finds a group of girls striying to be like the dawning in that it brings with it light and oppcM ' tunity. And as morning dawns oyer the vyhole world it dis- coyers those who haye gone out from that group remembering her high ideals as they striye to giye their highest seryice. 110 192 . 0 . - .. ■■■ cse C.

Aurora Club was founded at the same time and the two were joined as brother and sister clubs. The Egyptian Scarab Beetle was adopted as their emblem, Nile green and the buff of the desert sands as their colors, the lotus flower as their flower, and the O. A. C. entwined as their monogram. After flooring with hardwood and decorating their hall, the men of Orion entered competition with the Lowells and Parchevards. Dur¬ ing these early years of her existence, Orion was handicapped in ath¬ letics, but the impetus of her forensic victories in 1916 has brought her ten debate victories out of thirteen contests. In 1919 she won her first oratorical victory, and continued to win for four consecutive contests. She has also won more than half of the tennis champion¬ ships since she was organized. Since the last ])ublication of the Narva, Orion has held her own in athletics. The Parchevard Basketball Team won a victory after playmg off a tie with Orion in 1923. By defeating Parchevard in baseball in the same year, Orion made possible the championship for the Lowell Club. This year has shown Orion leading the other clubs in scholastic work, and scholarshi}). She has headed the list of men’s clubs at each posting. Among the highest averages in the college, those of Orions have been in the majority. Orion Club has a future to work for. With the fellowship and club loyalty enjoyed in the past, she will be able to break her own records and forget her defeats of the past. Pledging more men than either of the other two clubs in the past two years, her growth is also assured. Another notable event in the life of Orion Club came in May, 1923, when Orion Club became the Delta Chapter of the National Webster Literary Society, enjoying through one of her members, the National Presidency for 1924, ’25, ’26. The origin of the Webster Literary Society dates from 1868, when it was organized as a local campus literary society on the campus of the Kansas Agricultural College, Manhattan, Kansas. In January ' , 1871, Mr. C. O. Whedon, one of the charter members, secured the charter of the society and it became a definite entity. Largely through the efforts of Mr. Lawrence Whearty, the Society was united during the fall of 1921 with the Webster Literary Society of the University of Minnesota to form the National Webster Idterary Society. Since its inception on the Kansas State Agricultural College campus, through its union with the University of Minnesota, the National M’ebster Literary Society now numbers four chapters, of which Purdue University is the Gamma Chapter and Park College the Delta Chapter. We have our gaze steadfastly fixed on those things which are afar and beyond, and sincerely hope that the coming years will see Orion Club and National Webster Literary Society true to its ideals, and the exponent of progress. 114 192 . 0 - 0 GOd a X The Mattooii Mathematics Club Roger AJorrow .

Stylus Reporter 1 he Alattoon Mathematics Club” of Park College was organized in the fall of 1922, when a group of students aspiring to higher mathematical knowledge banded themselves together. The constitution was drawn up, the president elected and in a short time the club began its activities with great enthusiasm. Early this year, the club adopted the name, “Mattoon Mathematics Club,” in memory of Professor Mattoon, who for a number of years rendered great service as the head of the Mathematics department of Park College. The chief feature of the club this year was the successful banquet which preceded an illustrated lecture on the “Growth pf Algebraic Symbolism,” by Professor N. G. Mitchell of Kansas University. The active memibership is restricted to those who are either majoring or minoring in Mathematics. The meetings are held every two weeks on P ' riday evenings. The topics dis¬ cussed are those which ordinarily do not come up in the class work and yet have some connection with the regular class work. Some of the subjects that have been presented are: “History of Trigonometry-, ”Matheniatical Antiquity,” “History of Greek Geometry,” and “Hyperbolic Functions.” With twenty-four enthusiastic memhers, the club may look forward to a great future. Steps have already been taken to establish a chapter of Pi Mu Epsilon Fraternity whose parent chapter is at Syracuse, New York. The club owes its origin to Professor Wells, the present Mathematics professor, and is fortunate in having his co-operation and aid. 116 65£ c z: i92.a Uxx: .. .

President Bowen Djang . I’iee-President Geenn Gfnn -. Seeretary-Treasurer Fred Heewig . Censor The Cosmopolitan Club was organized May iS, 1909. At the time of its organization, it comprised representatives of fourteen nationalities. It was re-organized in December, 1921, and firmly established in the college and is acknowledged as one of the successful organizations of the campus, showing its vital interest in all activities and proving itself an active association. The local organization in December. 1909, sent two delegates to Ithaca, New York, to the third annual Association of Cosmopolitan Clubs. In the same year, two delegates were also sent to the fourth annual convention of A. C. C. at Unhana, Illinois. The club celebrated May 18, 1911, as Peace Day and the third Sunday of December as Peace Sunday. The club has long realized that it is no longer in a constricted world, but in a universe whose dominant motive is Internationalism. The Cosmopolitans place “humanity above all nations, and have made this phrase their motto. Their chief aim is to bring about inter¬ national friendship, the brotherhood of men, and the propagation of world peace. Locally the club brings men of different nationalities into closer contact and trains them in literary work and in discussion of international problems. The membership is made up of men of foreign birth, with the addition of an American membership limited to one-third the number of foreign students. .An amendment added to the constitution of the club in January, 1924, extended the membership of American born students to one-half the number of foreign students. The constitution also provi.les for an honorary membership which is selected from the faculty. MUSIC 119 ( C r c CSST AIrs. James L .

President __ Vice-President .Secretary-Treasurer .Chairman of Debate Chairman of Oratory ...Coach of Forensics The Forensic Council has charge of intercollegiate debate and oratory at Park College. Its work is carried out under the super dsion of the faculty committee on forensics, and in cooperation with the Park Chapter of Pi Kappa Delta. The Forensic Council is composed of the following members : a faculty advisor, one representative from the student body at large, one representative from each of the men’s literary organizations, and the President of Pi Kappa Delta. The latter becomes President of the Forensic Council. Debate and oratory have long occupied a place of prime importance among student activities at Park College. Park’s record of oh victories out of 78 men’s debates in the last 28 years is sufficient to place her in the first rank among the schools engaging in intercollegiate forensics. It is the aim of the Forensic Council to maintain this high standard in debate and oratory at Park. 130 iGS£ C. .

President Retssel McAfee . Vice-President June Rice . Secretary-Treasurer I he fundamental aim of Pi Kappa 13elta is to promote the best kind of forensic activities. Upon it rests the obligation of raising high standards and of maintaining worthy ideals ; of promoting the spirit of fair play and broadmindedness in all forensic activities. Pi Kappa Delta is not an old organization but it has accomplished much for Park forensics. A class has been organized so that members of the debate teams receive College credit for their work. Delegates were sent to the National Convention in the spring of 1922, ’23, and ’24. Pi Kappa Delta has now taken over the work of the Forensic Council, and is recognized as one of the most active and growing organizations on the campus. Pi Kappa Delta fosters friendly relations with other colleges. It sponsors a banquet twice a year to which near-by colleges send repre¬ sentatives at the invitation of the Park Chapter. Dean W. F. Sanders is also an honorary member of Pi Kappa Delta. 132 _ 1952, : Q 1 li JJ- O I92.a o rg£ c 1 ..gar e ?| Park’s Debate Season, 1922-23 During the debating season of l!)22-192o, the most extensive program ever arranged at Park vv as carried out very successfully.

Since 1890, about the date of the origin of the Oratorical Association, Park men have won a place in the state contests upon thirty-two occasions. First place has been awarded to a Park orator on eighteen of these occasions. Two of the five times that Park has placed in the inter-state contests have resulted in sweeping victories and big celebrations. Although the past two years have not been quite so successful as many former years. Park still maintains her usual high standard by producing orators of genuine ability as shown in their style and content of their orations. As winner of the local Harry S. lewett Oratorical Contest, Douglas Magers represented Park in the state contest held at Park March 12, 1924. By a splendid oration, A Political Religion,” and excellent delivery, “Twin won third honors for himself and his Alma Mater from a closely con¬ tested field of participants. Twin” has shown marked progress in oratorical prowess and were it not for his graduation this year we could expect added honors for the in¬ stitution from him. Park has reason to be proud of her representative orator in the state contest of 1923. The oration, “Inaction or Leadership,” and the orator, Russell McAfee, combined against a strong field, won third place in the contest at Westminster. Russell also, by grad¬ uation, leaves a vacant place that will be difficult to fill. Early in the year 1923, the old Peace Oratorical Contest, promoted by the Dunkards and Quakers, was revived in several states. By a preliminary contest Aram Renjilian was selected to represent Park in the state contest held at Park College, May 12, 1923. .Aram produced a work of merit in his oration, “A New World Order,” which won fourth place in the contest. In the first divisional oratorical and debating contests conducted at the Central Province Pi Kappa Delta Convention at Fulton, Missouri, last year. Park men carried off first honors in three forensic fields,—Debate, oratory and extempore speaking. Kingsle y Given, Park’s Pi Kappa Delta orator, won the unanimous vote of three judges on his strong plea for law and order in his oration, “The Path of the Criminal.” Edward Ziegler and John Moore won first and second places respectively in the ex¬ tempore speaking contest. The results of these contests have, as always, boosted the standards and strengthened the traditions of the College and have kept Park in the foreground of forensic activities throu.ghout the Middle West. 137 - ■ --- _asi 192.0- _ GOC mvoo DQ::d Men’s Debate Squad, 1923-1924 1 he Collegiate debate squad is composed of twelve men chosen at the begin¬ ning of the first semester by competition. The squad, under the direction of Dr. Willard H. Robinson, holds one regular class session each week during the first semester. In these meetings the fundamentals of debate are reviewed and the Pi Kappa Delta question for the year discussed. During the second semester three class periods are held each week at which briefs are constructed, and speeches revised and criticized. Intra-squad debates are also held during the second semester. The success of the squad is due to the unceasing efforts and valuable direction of our coach, Dr. Robinson, and also to the remarkable coo])eration existing between the various members of the squad. fr 138 . .c— - I92.a r c mar a.

It was held in the latter part of November. Out of nineteen women the followino- ten were chosen as members of the squad: June Rice, Senior, who has had three years of intercollegiate debating ; Irene Schermerhorn, Senior, and Dorothy Davis, Junior, members of last year’s squad; Irene Hudson, Senior; lola Knacker, Junior; Katherine Blair and Margaret Crigler, Sophomores; Geraldine Gale, Mary Hart¬ man and Barbara Firebaugh, Freshmen. I ' hese women worked consistently and conscientiously and deserve credit for what they accomplished. Each Wednesday evening the squad met as a class and was conducted by Dr. W. H. Robinson, who was interested very much in women’s debating and did a great deal to instill enthusiasm into the squad, riiough the season was not very successful from the standpoint of decisions won, each member of the squad did her best.

There were four debates on the schedule for the year 1923-2-1. The first debate was held in McCormick Chapel with Kansas State Agricultural College on March 15. Irene Schermerhorn, Mary Hartman and June Rice upheld the affirmative side of the question, “Resolved. That the United States Should Enter the League of Nations.” Although this was a no-decision debate, there was a great deal of interest shown. The second debate was one of the triangular series held with Pittsburg Teachers Training College and Ottawa University. The Park team, made up of Mary Hartman, Irene Schermerhorn and lola Knacker, upheld the affirmative side of the question as stated above against Pittsburg Teachers Training College, March 24 in McCormick Chapel. Park lost a 2 to 1 decision. June Rice, Irene Hudson and Barbara Firebaugh went to Ottawa, Kansas, for the only debate that was held away from Park. There the Park women again lost a 2 to 1 decision, debating the negative side of the question against Ottawa University. 4 ' he last debate was held in McCormick Chapel, April 11, with June Rice, Irene Schermerhorn and Mary Hartman representing Park against the College of Emporia. The decision of the judges was 2 to 1 for the College of Emporia. 141 192,0- _ - 0 r c mar a.iW DQ:d Intra-Mural Debates, 1923-24 November 27, 1923 Question: “Resolved : That the United States should recognize the Soviet government of Russia.” Parchevard—Affirmative Charles Eckels Joe Harritt Wallace Edgar Decision—3-0 in favor of Negative Lozvell—Negative Hugh Jones Arthur Shaw Robert Chaffin December 4, 1923 Question: “Resok ' cd: That the consolidation of the railroads of the United States, ac¬ cording to the plan outlined by Professor Ripley, should he required by Federal Lazv.” Lozucll—Affirmative Robert Cox Howard Moffitt Hugh Wolfe Orion—Negative Thomas Walker Clark Briggs Albert Panhorst J)ecision — 2 -t in favor of affirmative.

The donning of Frosh Caps and Rib¬ bons and the appearance of mule barn decorations such as “Frosh Debate De(a)mons Will Win’’ are pleasant (?) harbingers of the approaching contest. Traditionally the Freshmen emerge victorious but a surprise is always possible. The debate is an altogether wholesome outlet for class pep. and enthusiasm and a stimulus for greater forensic activity. 144 1 192. d GOC CY f r Q . 145 G C 1 192. g£ C man a, 2 Smarka from taff ©o tl|e nlJi rljieftaut, Nama, ui? wl n arr prr- jetuating i|tB name tijnmgli nur tonrk, aenii 0mtingfl.

WALEAC E FIESON— “Fil” played a good consistent game and was always at the right place at the right time. It took a good guard to hold him to a few goals. 154 192 , 0 - . I! Jj-- rG£ C (S DQ:Z WILBUR ENNIS —Forward He was little and fast. A man that could cover the court and rustle the ball. Lost out at the first of the season due to sickness, but certainly made up for lost time when he did get started. GEO RGE FI SHBU RN—C ntcr One of the “Human String Bean” variety and he could certainly jump. It was a good opponent that outjumped “Fish.” He always came through with his share of the goals. JAMES GRAHAM—Center “Jimmie” could he used any place and always gave an excellent account of himself when given the chance. A hard i)layer and one that did not quit until the final whistle. 155 r c csrrr Intra-Mural Basket Ball CiAMES, 1923 Date Score Nov. 3, 1923 —Parchevard-Orion. 21-20 Nov. 10 1923— Parchevard-Lovvell . 28-11 Nov. 17, T923 —Lovvell-Orion . i8-ir Nov. 20, 1923 —Orion-Parchevard . 21-18 Dec.

In 1885 the Academy was established to prepare students for entrance into Park College. At that time there were very few high schools or preparatory schools in this section of the country. The course of study which was very elementary then has gradu¬ ally been changed to a regular high school course. For the past ten years Park College Academy has been accredited by the State Uni¬ versity and the North Central Association. The teaching force of the Academy is composed of three heads of departments and a corps of senior practice teachers under the supervision of the principal, Miss Harrison. Woodward is the only dormitory in which the Academy boys live. The Academy girls make their homes in the college girls’ dormi¬ tories. A large number of the students, however, come from their homes in the village. Although the Academy is not very large, it affords great oppor¬ tunity for the personal development of the students. Aside from the classroom duties, the students have the opportunity to enter athletics, which include basketball and field sports. Besides this the students carry on debates with other high schools and enter into other literary contests. To develop the social as well as the literary part of their training the students have four academy literary clubs. 164 _JGgj 192 . 0 - Wx: _ )G I “1 JJ - r c id cv ar a iW -—■ ' --L J i ■ ■ -- MARY REBECCA lL RRISON, AAL Principal of the Acodciny and Associate Professor of Edacation A.B., Park College, 1920; A.M., Uni¬ versity of Chicago, 1922 ; Instructor in High School, Fulton, Missouri, 1909-1913; Prin¬ cipal of Park College Academy, 1918- Park 1913.

Alice Breitshwert Motto: ' ' At the foothills climbing.” THE CLASS OF 1924 It was a clear September day; the sun shone brightly on the long road which stretched like a white, dusty ribbon on to the horizon as out of the cool shadows of the trees by the wayside there stepped a young knight, resplendent in the glory o new armor, proudly,—leading his horse and carrying his spear with a lordly grace The cool shade and velvety grass invited, but the call of the road was imperative, so he mounted and rode slowly away. For some distance the highway was deserted and he saw no one save himself. But as he neared the first crossroads, he saw another knight riding toward him. They met and after lowering their spears in salute the stranger asked: “Who art thou, my good sir ?” The young knight bowed, “I am the spirit of ’24. And thou?” “My name is Success. 1 will go with you,” the other answered. For many leagues they rode together. Success never leaving the side of the young knight. Often times, along the road, the older knight would stop and raise a stone, or make a blaze to mark their passing. On one of these stones he would carve, “Basketball,” on another “Debates,” while others read “Oratory,” “Track etc. At length, one day as the sun was gradually sinking and the long roa ' stretched ahead but dimly into the veils of t he twilight, the two knights, worn ana tired from their traveling, saw the form of a young and beautiful woman coming toward them out of the sunset. She was a maiden fair to behold. She bore a crown of laurel and a shining shield; the sunlight playing on the shield and on her golden hair touched off a wonderful picture. As she advanced toward the wayfarers, she stopped and began to speak in a low, soft, musical voice. “I am the spirit of Fame, and I have come to meet you. You have accom- lilished much and I shall reward you. Take then, this symbol, the laurel and the shield of the victor.” And they passed down the road into the sunset. In the center, the young knight ’24, beside him, his comrade, the older knight. Success, and the young and beautiful woman, the spirit of Fame. 167 192.0- g£)C r VCXr V (A? ■Ji John Noble Allen Philadelphia, Pennsylvania “Ahvays in evidence when good fellozvs get together.” Philolexian.

M. C. A. on Obser¬ vatory Hill. The purpose of the Hi-Y organization is to take the place of the Y. M. C. A. in the life of the academy young men by promoting the principles of clean habits, clean speech, and clean sports. These principles have been carried out consistently through the co-operation of the faculty members, the college Y. M. C. A., and the members of the organization itself. The meetings are held every two weeks in Woodward parlor on Wednesday evenings at seven-fifteen. The Hi-Y organization is fortunate in obtaining speakers such as members of the admin¬ istration and prominent speakers interested in young men’s Chris¬ tian work. The interest that the twenty-four members have, shown in the organization this year indicates that the Hi-Y is an important factor in the religious life of the campus. 175 Goa 1 Philomathian Club Colors : Orange and Black.

The programs of the society are varied. .Sometimes there are plays and again there are readings and music. All these things give the girls practice in literary and musical expression.

Later, on account of the decrease in the enrollment of the Academy and the handicap of not having a hall Leantikon declined in membership and passed through a trying time. But loyalty and determination won and Leantikon again became a strong, successful organization.

For a number of years Andrion and Leantikon clubs were handicapped by not having a club hall. In 1922 after persistent efforts a room in Labor Hall was secured. The redecoration and furnishing of this room was made possible by the loyal service of club members and by the generous contribution from the Faculty Woman’s Club. Andrion Club has maintained a highly creditable record especially in debate. For the past two years the club has taken the lead in athletics.

Both of the clubs prac¬ ticed steadily and consistently throughout the sea¬ son. As a result the games were very interesting and close. The Andrions, however, proved themselves to be the superior team and won three out of a series of five games. 1922-23 In a series of five games the Andrions won the championship for 1922-23. This was a real accom¬ plishment for the Andrion club, because they broke the precedent that had been established and main¬ tained by the Philo Club for a number of years. 182 i92.a tL GOC Andrion-Philo Baseball The baseball series of 1923 between the Andrion and Philo Clubs was the most interesting and closely contested that we have witnessed for some years. The Philos won the first of a three game series. After a hard fig ' ht the Andrions won the second game. By steady, consistent playing the Philos won the third game, thereby defeating their opponents in the series. Academy Cross Country In the school year 1922-23, Mr. D. C. Douglas planned a cross country race to be held between the College Clubs. He organized and coached the teams, thereby making the sport a favorite among the stu¬ dent body, d he meet is held on Thanksgiving Day, and the men run on a three mile course through the college lands. This fall the academy clubs asked permission to enter this race. The permission was graciously granted. Professor Teener has very kindly offered a silver loving cup to the academy club winning the race for three consecutive 3 ears. The cup is now in the hands of the Andrion club as a result of their winning the race this year. The length of the run was three miles. The time was 22 minutes and 47 seconds. r? 184 -ll i92.a ■ ■■ ) Our Appreciation WE ARE PLEASED TO HAVE BEEN CHOSEN TO MAKE THE PHOTOGRAPHS FOR THIS PARTICULAR ANNUAL IN HONOR OF THE GOLDEN ANNIVERSARY OF PARK COLLEGE The Haines Portrait Studio ST.
