N el his Keen glance, his deeply wrinkled, angular visage, and 11 i clear-cut speech, mark him as an uncommon man. However, his appearance, plain, v el commanding, does not impress one so much as his wonderful capacity for work, lie is a doer: alway planning and doinii ihe hest for the ( dd Nor- mal School, lie is Known personally to educators, teachers and pupils a a genuine friend, safe coun- sellor. and inspiring leader. Mis tact, sympathy, in- sight. readiness to sacrifice himsell for others, with heroic courage to stand for the rijjltt. make him imi- versalh heloved as ;i man. and easily the most trusted constructive educational leader in Nebraska. I lie policy of our school is noi necessarily the police of the prin- cipal- It is not the policy of any present faculty or student body. Tin- policy of each of these should harmonize with the school policy, but the policy of the institution is a larger thing. It re,'idles bach and looks forward. It is made tip of history, the present, and the school ideals for the future. I he I’em policy had its origin in the minds and hearts of those Christian men and women who established the school and those who composed its early faculty. Xot only those, but it also had its origin in the ambitions and aspirations of the worthy young men and women from prairie and frontier homes who composed the student body. Those sod-house homes themselves and the letters from fathers and mothers contributed their part. The Sunday school of that day. the Tuesday evening prayer meeting, the work of the literary society, the tnotals and manners taught in the classes—all these contributed. The faculty and students and the board of education looked forward to a much better and a much greater school. That was an important factor in shaping the policy of this school. Something has been contributed by every faculty and by every student body since that time. When the policy of a principal or a faculty or a student body is not in accord with the general trend of development there is a loss of effort. The principal who pushes some fad as a policy hinders the general progress: but no one person, no one faculty, no one student body, can permanently check the current which we call our school policy. How important, then, that we all have the spirit of loyalty and co-operation. Mow important to think not onl of having a line school sentiment and a good school spirit, and high standards of scholarship and of conduct today, but to look ahead to the larger anil better I’eru five or ten or twenty years hence and to the larger things which will he accomplished by this school in the next generation.

Tin i h t n THE NORMAL AND PERU I Ik I 'em Normal School has always had the advantage of an enchanting natural environment. 11 up on the hill-top. overlooking the village, and. far below, the majestic breadth of the Missouri, lies the beautiful campus, where are located all the buildings of the institution. There are sixty acres in all. extend- ing in part over a beautiful wooded territory where Nature revels unmolested. Dr. A. K. Winship. editor of the New Kngland Journal of Kducation. has paid a tribute to this ideal situation in the following words: “Peru. Nebraska, has the best natural setting of am state normal school in the I’nited States. I he grounds are an ever-changing dip and lip of hill and vale. I only know of sixty-four of the state normal schools, and many of these have beautiful grounds: but no one of them has sixty such acres as these. If one of the schools I do not know has superior grounds, it would be interesting to know of it.” The Normal at Peru and the State of Nebraska had their birth in the same year. 1870. The lirsi legislature ot the state purchased the Peru Seminary, as it was then known, from the Methodist Kpiseopal denomination, and established the Normal School, electing as the first president. J. M. McKenzie, the prin- cipal of the seminary, who is still living, and to whom I he Peruvian” of was dedicated. In those «lays only the ex- treme eastern part of the state was settled at all. and even here communities with any considerable population were few and tar between. With Nebraska’s rapidly increasing population, Peru has not grown as many of the surrounding vicinities. I pon two I'ifln 11 V sides Hilly is ilu little town hounded by the rich agricultural re- gmus of llu- ciMinty, and the location is not favorable for traffic of any considerable importance. I bit the progress and success of the institution as the years h lied by have been phenomenal, increasing with geometrical bounds during each successive period of time. The natural charms nt the position, the freedom from the debasing influences of city life, the high ideas which have inspired both leaders and students in Peru, have more than outweighed any seeming dis- advantage. A casual glance at figures showing the number of graduates from Peru during the past ten years will show more deaily than words can tell the results of these conditions, which are now widely recognized as closely approaching the ideal: Class of moo. .

Such smaller buildings as the observatory and greenhouse have not been included in this account. St t • 11 h 1 n r f ! So potent have heen the influences of the environment at rent, the professional ideals which are constantly emanating r from the instructors, and the broadening effect of its peculiarly fitting and healthful social life, that the ‘Peru spirit’ has become a state-wide by-word. It is to be doubted if anv school in the middle west can boast of a like spirit in so marked a degree. It exists among students, faculty and alumni alike. It is betrayed in the conversation, the correspondence, the attitude upon all occasions, of the Peruvians. It has been an inestimable factor in the growth of the school: it has resulted in the organization of a “Peru Club” at the Slate Cniversity. with a membership of more than forty, and. we believe, indirectly, in raising the educa- tional standards of the entire state. The educational position of Peru is unmistakable. Three thousand alumni have gone out into educational work in the state, coming into actual contact with and proving factors in the development of at least twenty thousand voting minds every vear. The teacher is perhaps the major factor in the progress of civilization, and not only has Peru furnished an army of teach- ers. but she has set the standard by which the teachers of the state are judged, and up to which, if they survive, all must measure. iiti frrn PERU W'lion with this ohl stul) pen I'm through. Xu inori' to hit the pace that kills: I'm coming; down to t 1«1 IVru. To get a home among tile hills. Where lilacs scent the hreatli of spring. Where squirrels frisk about the lawn. And I can hear the wild birds sing In chorus free at peep of dawn. Where screech-owl hoots and turtle dove coos. And man pursues his peaceful way: here no one tills his skin with booze And travels hellward night and «lay. Where there is peace and full delight. And little noise and politics: Where one can always rest at night. Ami wtike to bless the morning—PIN. Tin h In 1 . j i 1 1 « PERU NORMAL LIBRARY Among; tin golden advantages of IVru is the largi' library of carefully selected volumes. In the libratu the student may consult the hest authorities on the subject of his choice, or mav browse at random amidst the writings and philosophies of all ages. Students soon learn that knowledge is an infinite something of which thc can acquire but the minutest portion. I hey find that their future usefulness is to he determined not so much by what tliev know, as bv what they know about and are able to Intel, tine who expects to climb to the lofty heights in the world of scholarship cannot begin too carle to acquire case and facility in the proper use of the library. 1 lie I ’em library has grown rapidly and covers a broad field oi knowledge. In the last live years over seven thousand volumes have been added, giving a total of about eighteen thousand volumes. There are also a large number of pamphlets. The sections on educa- tion. literature, history and pltilosophv are especially strong. I he library takes regularly about one hundred and title periodicals. The reading-rooms, which are furnished with heave oak tables ami comfortable chairs, seat about two hundred students, and are often used by many more than . that. The students have unlimited access to all hooks and periodicals and are helped in as many ways as possible to get the most good from the library. imsM r.K u.akk ISlloWNKI.I.

Miss Mattie I ook Kllis. I ler clear eye and |itick intellect have divined the ver essence of things, and thus we have been helped over and through our many difficulties. I he limior class of 11)05 was lortnnate indeed to have Miss Kllis for their adviser. So devotedly did she serve them that I‘resilient ( rabtree was petitioned that she be made their adviser the following year, which was their Senior year. 'l o their delight, the request was granted anil harmony pervaded the class from center to circumference. So dev .ted were the Naughty Sixes to Miss Kllis. and so proud were they of the distinction of having her for their adviser, that loud protests went np when it was learned that she was to be adviser ol the class of 11) 10. If ever the consentient spirit was evident, it was when the name of Mattie Cook Kllis, a name so loved b the students at old Kern, was pro- posed for the Senior-class advisership. I he one hundred and eighty members ol the Senior class chose her. The cl ass of 1 (jof characterized Miss kllis as ’the embodiment of student ideals. The class of njio characterizes her as “the very essence ol kindness, cheerfulness, patience, persistence, loyally, enthusiasm, devotion, and common sense. I U-r eighteen vears of splendid service and devotion to dear old I'eru speak for themselves. Her scholarship, her unusual leaching ability, bet great personal magnetism in the classroom and everywhere, inspire every student coming in contact with her. So w ith all due thanks and appreciation ol the great kindness, the generosity, the love and sympathy which have marked her advisership. we believe the fol- lowing lines help us characterize 0111 lcadei.

The class adviser. Professor l M. (negg. called the meeting to order, and the election ot Mr. Morgan as president was consummated on the first ballot, 'file second ballot settled the vice-presidency in favor of Miss Prownell. In the contest for secretary Miss Lamm was the sucecsslul candidate, though it looked for a time as it 1 ioslerman was ( iowin to “Skinner. I )irks. the invincible, was made treasurer, and thus the class started as a large and happy familv. (hi October 2 the Juniors held their first reception. After a short, spicy program in the chapel the evening was pleasantly spent in the gymnasium. As a souvenir ot the occasion, each carried home a booklet in which he had secured autographs. One ot the most unique and enjoyable affairs of the year occurred on November 1. Promptly at 8 o’clock the Juniors assembled in the gymnasium, which was dimly lighted by jack-o’lanterns. for the purpose of a Hallowe’en jollification. 'The entertainment of the evening was furnished by witches, elves, and gypsies, who presided over mystery-booths. The occasion was terminated in a most fitting manner by the narration of clever and original ghost stories. Knowing that in union there is strength, and knowing also that in order to have the most perfect unity wc must know each other personali}-, at the begin- ning of the year our president appointed a committee whose duty it was to see that every Junior became acquainted with his classmates. The work of this famous “1 . A.” committee was made manifest on the evening of December iS. when it entertained in a most royal manner the whole Junior class. I he special feature of the evening was a contest to see who could tell the home addresses of the greatest number of Juniors. Miss Wortman, having correctly named the greatest number, was given first prize, a school pennant, and Miss Sherwood received a class pennant as second prize. Prom January 16 to 22 was a time of unusual interest to the students, tor then were held the preliminary debates. The class of ’11 lias just cause to feel proud of her representatives therein, for out of the sixteen winning places on the inter-collegiate debates, seven were Juniors, and of the nine chosen tor the final debates six were of the class of '11. Mr. Morgan was awarded the Moore medal offered for the best individual debater in school. In athletics the Juniors have made an enviable record. In the loot-ball team we found the Juniors in the majority, and among them both the captain and manager. Wc found also in the class of ‘1 1 the captain and manager ol the bovs’ basket-ball team and many of the star players of both the girls' and boys tearns. The lunior girls proved (heir ability by having 111 is year won the school pennant in basket-ball. I r SOPHOMORES dlilsx riihirx: I’lir ilr am irhilr. CLASS YKI.LS Hip, Hi] . Kali! 11 ip. I loo, Kec!

HISTORICAL SKETCH Every class has its distinctive feature—something that no other class ever had: so. we have the honor of being the first class that was ever organized before the Freshman year. We were the first that ever graduated from the Iligh-School Department of the State Normal School. We. like Minerva of old. came full- winged from the head of Jove. To our number were added many strong students from other high schools over the state. Fortune has favored our class in many ways. She has been kind to us in giving 11s our beginning under the administration of our great president, j. W. Crabtree, for it was through his wisdom and foresight that our most worthv adviser. Professor Cornell, was provided for us: a man who is known by his works, not bv his words; a man whose heart beats as our hearts: who sympa- thizes with us in our defeats and rejoices with us in our victories: who is an ever-present help in the time of trouble. With such a leader the class of '13. which fate decreed to be the unlucky class oi the twentieth century, will be the luckiest class of all time. mi it st ft a • re THE TRAIN ICRS V 1 TRAINERS ('Ins. colors: I'nr ilr ami white.

It is pre-eminentlx tin art t the twentieth century, because it is in a supreme manner responsible t« the emotional wants, the mixed aspirations, and the passionate sell-consciousness of the age. It is a corrective of our crudities; for what can so quickly magneti .e a people into a harmonic mood as music? Luther said: “Music is the art of the prophet, the only art that can calm the agitations of the soul: it is one of the most delightful and magnificent presents God has given us.' It is a medium which connects us vividlx with the past. nly a few strains from an old piano-forte piece and we are carried again to the joyous past. And that domestic and long-suffering instrument, the cottage piano, has probably done more to sweeten existence and bring peace and happiness to families in general than all the homilies on domestic virtue ever penned. The poet truly sings: “'Thought is deeper than speech, but feeling is deeper than thought.” And it is common to define music «as the mitural language of feeling. Its substance is common air: its form, vibration: therefore, music is motion. Tis a physical vibration from a soul passing on until it becomes a vibration in the soul of another and there to live on and on. e «are a part of all we have heard: so good music becomes a part of us. Carlyle says: “Music is the speech of angels.’ J. (i. Holland tells us: “Music is a thing of the soul—a rose-lipped shell that murmurs of the eternal sea: a strange bird that sings of another shore. Hut the truth is. the meaning of music lies hidden in those deep mysterious springs of every-day experience which it were as vain to ignore as impossible to render into words. Music is finer than speech, and appeals to that deeper some- thing in us. It would take all the great words of poetry to half express the sublimity of it. vet a single strain from a symphony and all is told. Can words convey to us the emotion in the “Prisoner and the Swallow. ’ music hath done it. and we hear the call of the swallow as clearly as though of a Max morning he called us from our slumber. Music, then, being free from the burden and the weight of lealism, what is more natural than that the spirit of man should call upon if for rebel from the pressure and grind of fact? Goethe says. “The worth of art is pre-eminent in music, since it requires no material, no subject-matter whose effect must he deducted: it is wholly form and power, and it raises and ennobles whatever it expresses. There is an idea that music may he so applied «'is to actually heal many dis- eases of the physical organism. The action of music upon the nervous system, and its physiological influence in general, is patent to any observer. I is effect upon the mind is generally recognized «'is beneficial in that it lifts the entire being into a higher state. It has even been accredited the poxvei of restoring tlu dis- tnii humhitl Inn organized mind t pleasurable and healthful activity, (leorgv HI. in liis lits of melancholy madness, was deeply sensible of the power of music to create an atmosphere of peace and restore something like hartnotn to the ’’sweet hells of the spirit jangled out of tune. We are told that— Music hath charms t« soothe a savage breast. To soften rocks, or bend a knotted oak: And I've heard that things inanimate have moved. And. as with living souls, have been informed Hy magic nitmber and persuasive rounds. 1-veti the lowest animal is sensitive to music. Tests have been made in zoolog- lcal gardens and it has been found that there is no animal which does not seem to he affected by music in some way. and to most of them it seems to bring a sensation of pleasure. Not long ago a concert was given at the poultry show at I'osen. The fowls listened intently, and seemed pleased, with the exception of an old turkey-cock, which gave evidence by noisy disapproval, reminding the observers of the presence of a certain musical critic. In ancient times the Hebrews employed music for curative purposes, and lhis. together with their prophetic power, which was whollv due to the inlluence of music, shows a marked difference between them and other races. Kvcn Pythagoras thought that music greatly contributed to health if used in a proper manner. It is related that i Iladstone was relieved from neuralgia pains by bearing violin music in Major. The Uiblc itself pays a tribute to the emotional effect and power of chang- ing the soul’s atmosphere possessed by even such a primitive instrument as David’s harp: “W hen the evil spirit from (iod was upon Saul then David took an harp and plaved upon it with bis bands. So Saul was refreshed and was well and the evil spirit departed from him. There is nothing like music, then, to banish the benumbing ghost of ennui. It lends secret sympathy, relief, expression, to all one’s moods, loves, languages, and sorrows.—comes nearer to the soul, or to tile secret wound, than am Irieml or even the healing sunshine. It nourishes and feeds the hidden springs of hope and love and faith: renews the old convictions of life’s spring-time, that the world is ruled by love.—that (Iod is good.—and that beauty is the divine end of life. .Music locks the door against the outer world ami i in this way a marvellous elixir to old age. ( ur great composers as a rule have been long-lived. Music creates an atmospheric inlluence. In earliest childhood this inlluence is fell: even the infant is affected by it. There exists some sort of relationship between pure tones and the spirit of man. and just as music increases in heart acceptance among men. so will the true sense of the loveliness of morality prcad and all that is pure and lovely grow in power. I’acli. Handel. Haydn. Mozart. Iicelhoven. and Mendelssohn, were all men of purest minds, and thc wove into their music all that was true and noble. The musician is the complement of the scientist. The latter will superintend our knowing, the former our loving. Our hmithrtl Ihi'i Music can be gav, light-hearted, droll, and set the soul free from its mortal clogs awhile bv exquisite and graceful fancies, such as sparkle in Kossini s comic opera; but never did it wear filthy channels for itself. The cultivation of music for amusement s sake is for the enhancement of one's social value. But tis culture in a nobler sense in that it haunts the mind as something distinct from and superior to the barren routine ol a narrow, utili- tarian, provincial, and timid education. C ulture is the awakening and free unfolding of intrinsic germs of character—of conscious, quick, sincere sympathy with all the beauty of the order of the universe. And what contains more order than music? Good music has a logic of its own: none more severe, more subtle, and surely none so fascinating; for it leads, it charms into the infinite. Music may shake and melt into tears, as the flowers stand and shake when the wind blows upon them and the drops of rain fall off. Strains of music mav come to us when we are old, and be our golden daffo- dils when the sun of life is setting. They will lead us Thro’ the shadowy isles Out into the after whiles. Since music has the power of creating mental atmosphere, what vast capac- ities for good or evil must it possess. Icven the strains of martial music as a military band passes by are capable of arousing something like spirited and energetic emotion in the breast of the tamest auditor. And did you never step within tlie portals of a vast and crowded church in the hour of prayer? And in vain you sought to catch the syllables of the far-off spiritual-looking man. What if volt could not hear them; you heard him. his tones, his spirit: till, losing thought of self, it went up with the rest. f that sort is the influence of music. Greater and greater everv year grow the multitude of those who declare that no sermons, no words, no forms of any sort, avail to carry them on to the desired sacred goal as do the strains from Bach. Beethoven, and others. The secred cantata or oratorio is a form of art capable of expressing the noblest progressions of the religious sentiment in the highest plains of emotion. And twas in melodious strains that have echoed down through the ages that the angels announced the birth of the King of Kings. ft in It iiml it i fun i FINIS 'D c gods and little fishes. said Mr. I yler. in the tone of the tragedy villain: “will this day never end? Indeed it seemed not. It was the last day before the Peruvian, Vol. Ill,” went to press, and in the lobby of the chapel the staff was “holding forth. Perhaps it would be more strictly truthful to say the public in general was hold- ing forth while the staff looked calmly (?) on. President Crabtree and even the Registrar had lied: that staff was left—alone! There at the table sat Mr. Tyler, the editor-in-chief, savagely glaring at the various editors and heads of departments as they crouched about, here and there, their faces drawn by mental distptiet. t n either hand sat the business managers, their heads and shoulders visible, their bodies lost to view in heaps and piles of envelopes. From the president’s office came a low moan—another, and yet another— and a voice wailed. Would you shade it here or here? Her lips too curved? Her hair too wavy? That lettering uneven?

Accuracy is a thing' much to ho de- sired. whether in the making up of a medical prescription, of a census report, or of a chapel oration. C ertain it is. that safe models of cor- rect and logical English diction are sel- dom afforded in the speeches delivered to normal students by visiting profes- sional gentlemen, nor in the papers that the normal student reads during his spare half hour in the library. Many of our visitors frankly use like” as a con- junction (a form of usage frowned upon In all purists in English speech): they not iufre |tientl say “a person—they.’ and “one of those who believes, and “ought to gone.” A recent issue of a prominent city daily contained all of the following blunders on a single editorial page: “Senator Lodge, whom |who| he says would not have the ghost of a show:” “in regard to I lay want | Hay- ward’s | trying for congress:” “It one looks for slights they | he | w ill not he disappointed:” “the best ccptippcd of any candidate [all candidates! so far mentioned.” I ut the hearing and reading of all ol these and a score of others like them could occasion no such shock t 1 the sensitive and imaginative soul as did a parody, much sung In otir own budding teachers at foot-ball games last fall, ol the favorite “Waltz me around again. illic.” a line of which ran.

Xo precedent for anything of the kind could he found by those interested, but. nothing daunted, the leading spirits of the school, among them our own President Crabtree, accepted, inwardly pitying those who would presume to jppo.se college students, such as they, in an intellectual contest. Keen if they were the enlightened farmers of Honey Creek district who boasted a regulari organized winter lyceum. they had no library advantages: while the students had at their disposal such recognized works as the Congressional Uecord ami the Encyclopedia Ilritannica, not to speak of the help of their instructors. After thorough preparation, rehearsing, and all that goes with getting ready, he fateful evening finally came. A crowded house of | Ionov Crockers greeted the young orators from the Normal. They were in the land of the enemy, but their opponents were to all intents and appearances nothing more than three unsophisticated farmers, so the stale's representatives took courage. The future president of the Normal was the first speaker, lie defined the qtics- tion (from Webster), reeled off statistics, authority and poetry in support of his contentions, and. after one supreme and touching appeal, sat down amid (what seemed to him) rapturous applause. I hit such had not been the impression left with his opponent, who sairl: The speech of my honorable opponent remin’s me of the sody water you git on the Fourth of July. It s mostly wind and Haver- in'.'' And so the contest continued, the Xormalitcs setting forth the most authoritative arguments, as they understood such, only to be received as had the speech of their first speaker, lint it was a question to be decided by the judges after all. and those men certainly would appreciate good authority, good English, and good delivery. They did. The decision was unanimous—for Money Creek. Tliev considered argument more then English or delivery. That contest was twenty-five years ago. And though it provokes the smile as it is viewed from the present, yet who will deny that the spirit which prompted those bitvs impels our debaters to their work, and that the earnestness and faith in their own inherent worth, even though a set of judges discounts it. are assets of our own representatives which compel our belief in diem and their ultimate triumph?

This shows that the Normal is up to dale in athletics as well as in all other hues of work. The season was started with raw material; onl a very small per cent had ever been “pigskin chasers' before entering the game tins year. All were anxious to learn, and when the season dosed every one wished it had jus. begun. The real caliber of the team was brought out by the fact that two of us players were chosen as members of the AH Nebraska Imot-liall lean.. I he two chosen were Meek, onr plucky little |iiarter-back. and .ibnore. full-back. the pride of our team. . , . , . . Honor is due to Captain Stewart and Manager .elwu k for the manner ... which tl.ev conducted the affairs of their offices, and the manner ... which they treated ev’erv ball-plaver that came out upon the field. Star placing was always evident in the Normal camp, but we must bear ... mind that star playing is not all due to the one playmg the part o, the star. Credit must also be given the players running the interference. 1 here is as much skill necessarv in running interference as in carrying the ball. The first game of the season was with Tarkio. The game was lmily contested from start to finish, ending in defeat for the Normal. This defeat was no discredit to die bovs. considering the very short time of tra.mng. and the fact that our coach arrived onlv three days before the game. ue watch,ng the game would „ot think that the Tarkio bunch were preachers or preache, s-to-bc. The second game of the season was played at Crete against our rivals the Doane Timers.” The game was an exciting one. but here again the lack of training was evident with the Non,.alites. Doane was very anx.ous to wipe out he defeat tl.ev had suffered at the hands of the Normal aggregation the year before. This game was clean and lively, resulting again ... the doeat o the I on, ov.

The Peru-Wesleyan game was fought to a tie at Unooln. the hrst halt ending nothing to nothing and both sides claiming the honor. In this game the coach- ing done liv Burnett was beginning to tell, which is proved m the games that followed In the second half each made a touch-down. Stoddard making our first touch-down of the season. Steve made a sensational run. carry,,,g the pump- kin thirty yards, and dropped when tackled. • The Peru-Midland game placed at Auburn was a hard battle. 1 lie Normal had been placed at a disadvantage in that the Pen, signals bad been, m some I tut hnnifi'tit t h • ii I n manner unknown, placet! in the hands of the Midland players: hut under these difficulties the Peru eleven worked hard and cleaned up the game, defeating the hoys from Kansas. The only touch-down was made by “Reliable Hill. This game was an experiment which proved to be profitable in that it payed more than the expenses of both teams. It is hoped that more games will be played at Auburn with Midland C ollege, who stand first and last for clean athletics. 'The victory over Kearney Xormal caused great rejoicing throughout the entire school. The game was an exciting one. and added to the excitement was the rain. It rained tile entire day. but despite this adverse circumstance the game was played in the «afternoon with a large crowd of rooters on the bank and side- lines. The score was a close one. resulting in a safty for Peru. The teams were certainly evenly matched. Mccausc of the moisture, much kicking and open playing was resorted to. Kach side played hard to win because this was a game between the two “sister schools.” The feature of the game was the sliding in mud and water. 'Hie Second University came to Peru confident of returning with the scalps of the Xormal team, but the Peru “pigskin chasers” were equal to the occasion. The game was won by a very cleverly executed pass by Peck to Stevens: “Steve” carried the ball over for the only score of the game. I he entire second halt was characterized by forward passes, on-side kicks, and punting. I ime was called with the ball in Peru's possession on the Nebraska forty-yard line. The Uni fellows marched out to the tune of defeat. Peru giving them a “goose egg.” The Peru squad betook themselves to Hastings in order to scalp the I bastings team on “Turkey day.” ()ur team must have looked quite large. hile in Lincoln, Colby was asked by a stranger if he were one of those Haskell Indians. The game is one long to be remembered by all who took part. Peru received the kick and made a good return, but was forced back to their twenty-yard line, and after a hard fight to the five-yard line. Hastings, being held for downs, tried an on-side kick. The ball fell into the open arms of Peck, who then proceeded to run away and have a game by himself. 1 le was finallv overtaken after carrying it ninety-five yards, falling flat on 1 Listings s five-yard line. Peck stated that he did not like to carry the ball over because he thought he had carried it far enough, and he also wanted to show I fastings that the Peril boys could carry it over while Hastings was between the ball and the goal. At the response to 34-3-6-21-64-71. “Reliable Pill, with half of the Hastings team clinging to him. plunged across the goal-line and planted the ball squarely between the goal-posts. Prom the spot where the ball was planted there no doubt will spring up a remembrance of that eventful game which will never be forgotten in the foot-ball history of Peru. Ibis game closed a most successful season of foot-ball for the Peruvians. tin hnm rtf ftrrnhrntn COACH BURNETT Coach Ihirnett Marled liU foot-ball ca- reer in the ( )inaha I ligli School.

BASKET-BALL COACH X. C. SCOTT Coach Scull, or Scotlie, as lie is familiaiiv called by the boys, came to us from the hast about the first of February of this year, lie went to work imme- diately on basket-ball coaching. Although he is really an easterner he was born in Pasadena. California, where he lived until about 5 years of age, when he went Fast with his family to Cleveland. Ohio, where lie has resided almost continu- ously since. Mis preparatory work was done at Kiskiminetas. at Salslmrg. Pennsylvania. 11 ere he first distinguished himself as an all-round athlete, being a member of all athletic teams while there, lie won his letter at a very early age while taking Freshman law at Western Reserve, Cleveland. hio. Later, he was connected as a player with the Massillon Tigers, of Cleveland, when they were professional foot-ball champions of the world. First as quarter-back and later as assistant coach, he won an enviable reputation through the East as a foot-ball man. After plating professional base-ball for a few years he became athletic coach tit Western Reserve University, and director of physical work in the Broadway Athletic Club, of Cleveland, which positions he held just prior to his coming West to Peru. Scott has shown himself to be a sure-enough athlete and coach during his stay at Peru. Taking practically raw material he developed a winning basket- ball team. He showed himself to be unmistakably the master of his work and teams. Strict in his coaching and firm in his decisions, he showed himself to be an excellent referee and official in other capacities. When the base-ball season opened, it did not take the boys long to find out that “Scottic” is a base-ball man, too. His experience in professional playing makes his ability as a player unquestioned, and although a good base-ball player is not necessarilv a good coach. Scott is both. Having also played professional foot-ball encourages us to believe that we will have a winning team next fall if we can onlv retain him. Realizing that Scott is a bigger man than his position, and that he is extremely popular with faculty and students alike, these facts should urge his retention for next year if it is at all possible to get him to stay.

A special effort has been made throughout the year to make the programs really literary in nature, with the gratifying result that, although diversional entertainment has not been placed in the background, the work of the society during both semesters is remembered as of real educational value. Everett 11 all has also been refinished throughout. The walls have been papered, the woodwork painted, and a beautiful velvet carpet placed upon the floor and platform. The evidence of prosperity presented by Everett's home as it now appears is an inspiration to the members and to all who take part in tlie programs, which will not fail to result in better society work and continued success. The Everetts were inclined to feel almost discouraged when they learned carlv in the year that unavoidable circumstances would make it necessary for their old-time champion and adviser. Professor if egg. to discontinue Ins adviser- ship to the society. However, when it was learned that President Crabtree had, in his good judgment, seen fit to appoint in his place Professor Cornell, their spirits rose. The confidence which was from the first accorded Professor Cornell has never been shaken, for his wealth of ideas, his commanding personality, his inborn resourcefulness, and his polished, cultured manner, have peculiarly fitted hint for such work. Professor (irepg is still an Everett from lop to toe. ami proud we are to he able to make such a statement. At the close of the first semester Everett adopted an official pennant of orange and black, the society colors. These are now in the possession of practi- cally every member, and serve to keep alive the characteristic Everett spirit. Otir fminh i il fn ff ritfh PlioK. PI.Alii-: II. COKNKI.I.. APVIKK1!

The club was organized for the purpose of creating a higher appreciation of dramatic art and a more skillful presentation of the drama: also to give its members practice and drill on coaching plays in public-school work. The plays given this year have been much more complete and finished than heretofore. Among the productions rendered may be mentioned “ rite Rivals,” King Rene's Daughter. A Christmas Carol, and The Three Chauffeurs. ()n April 18 was presented the open-session play, Shakespeare's Twelfth Might.” The staging was in accordance with the Ben (irce' plan, which is the old Elizabethan method. The presentation of this great drama was both enter- taining and educational, and will be remembered as the great dramatic event of the year. SCENE FltOM TWELFTH XKIIIT I CICERONIAN DEBATING SOCIETY CICERONIAN DEBATING SOCIETY I'lu: practice of debating, always a favorite exercise in American colleges, is in our day receiving more and more of the attention and energy of student minds. One could scarcely mention another intellectual pursuit, of those that arc optional with our hoys and girls, that enlists anything like the zeal and the persistence displayed in this business of debate. Our students enter the prelimi- naries by tens and scores: and vast audiences sit attentively through long and uninterrupted programs, giving closest heed to the most involved and complex arguments, often enlivened by little enough of humor and of rhetorical and elocutionary graces. The reason of it all is perhaps not far to seek. The work of debate is doubt- less felt to be the closest approach that one in student days can ever make to the vital and significant business of real living. Then, till hail, debating and debaters of I’em! May our zeal and faithfulness never Hag. May the numbers in C iceronian and Athenian ever increase, and our preliminary lists be ever more crowded with names of boys and girls alike. And may our inter-collegiate champions continue to have back of them the loyal sentiment of an eager and devoted clientele. I’kOl'. II. C. HOUSK. The Ciceronian Debating Club was organized years ago and is stronger today than ever before. Its aim and purpose is to promote higher ideals of debating and forensic culture. It affords opportunities to ambitious voting men to make practical applications of the principle and methods in real debating.

The members are (ierman students in all stages of progress; some. even, w ho are imi taking the course, but who come from pure liking for the evenings. I he club has caught the I ierman spirit of pure sociability, which, foreign to many peoples, seems rather vague to the Americans. The temperament and customs of Knglish-speaking people seem unsuited to develop that sort of neighborly good will which embraces every one in its hospitality and makes it possible for an impromptu gathering to be fully entertained for an evening w ithout a political discussion, or a phonograph blaring brazen noises into the air. There is no word in the Knglish language for such a feeling; there is no exact translation for the (ierman “( lemutlichkeit.” We may approach it with various words, blit before we can translate it we must feel it, and perhaps some day the (ierman Club may coin a word which will bring into good American the (Ierman “(lemiitlichkeitA The conversation of the club is supposed to be carried on entirely in (ler- mnii; but one sometimes receives the impression that Mark 'Twain’s rule for Deutsch” is followed: “If you want to say anything (not just talk), put it in Knglish.” The last semester of this school year the club has been formed into live divisions in order to arrange the programs more easily. The chairman of each division calls upon the members, who take whatever part is assigned them. The svstem has been found effective, and excellent programs have been offered. ’|)er I )eutscher erein of this year has been successful, due largely to the perseverance and ingenuity of its officers and to the careful guidance of Professor Whitenack: but these would have been insufficient without the ready co-opera- tion of the membership.

The organization that above all others helps Peru to turn out young men of noble purposes and high standards is the Voting Men’s Christian Association. A student who is away from home for the first time, separated from influences and sympathies that have been the controlling forces in his life, needs guidance and encouragement. The association endeavors to furnish these forces. A com- mittee of Christian young men meet the students at the train, welcome them with the glad hand of fellowship, invite them to join the association, and help them find their rooming-places. This puts the new student in touch with the work from the start, and he feels the influence of the association. He attends the stag social and gets acquainted with his fellows: lie comes to the Sundav meetings and discusses with other young men the problems of every-day student life. The good fellowship of the association stimulates him to higher Christian ideals, lie soon comes into harmony with the three-fold idea of the association and learns to live a broader and better-balanced life. I he association stands primarily for manly Christian men. The prayer meeting committee, under the direction of V. R. W hitfield, has done excellent work. I he noon-day prayer meeting has been verv successful, and has furnished daily spiritual refreshment to the students. The religious work of the association has been managed throughout the ear by John V. Lang, file helpful and carefully planned Sunday meetings have been good evidence of his faithful work. Mr. Clarey Xeilson. chairman of the Bible study committee, has encouraged greatly this very important phase of the association’s work. Several enthusiastic classes are pursuing different courses in Bible study. 'file committee 011 mission study, of which I. K. Morgan is chairman, has been especially active because of the Student Volunteer Convention and the Lavmeu’s Missionary Movement. Two courses are being offered, one on the study of China, the other on the study of South America. The association also co-operates with the young people’s societies of the town in different missionary enterprises. Mr. L. W Dirks, chairman of the social committee, has made the social side of the association well worth while to the young men. 'riie association means broader men spiritually, stronger men physically, and greater men intellectually for the Normal.

The association meets each Sunday for devotional exercises and to pursue a light course of religious study. During the first semester the members of the association gave reports on the lives and works of the church fathers. The second semester has been do- voted to the study of I )e I lathe’s catechism. The association has been fortunate in securing Miss kleanor Pally as its adviser throughout its existence.

The gymnasium was tastefully decorated in pale blue and white, and two miniature scaffolds which caused much merriment. The spell was soon broken w hen Master of Ceremonies I Insider called for order. A very unique and amusing program was rendered, in w hich t oach Unmet I gave his views of Peru's victory over Hastings College, lie spoke brielly of the team's work at the beginning of the season and of their rapid advance from the early rudiments of the game to grizzlv and worn veterans. I le complimented highly each member of the squad for their loyalty and the spirit they displayed throughout the season. ( )ne verv serious criticism could be offered to the coach’s remarks, and that is the fact that he forgot to give any credit to himself for developing such a winning team. After these remarks a burlesque foot-ball game of twenty years hence was played, w ith Peru and Vale as contestants. Professor llowie officiated as referee, field judge, head linesman, and time-keeper. Peru, after begging the pardon of the Yale men in case one of their players should be struck by the “pigskin. kicked oft to Yale, who returned the ball twenty yards before a Pern man could secure permission of the ’ale captain to tackle. Time was often taken out and penalties inflicted for various reasons, principally because if the carelessness of players in allowing their hair to become mussed or possibly the clothing dis- arranged. I wicc both teams drew penalties, once for laughing as the official gave a “perfectly horrid decision, and again when the same gentleman partook too “fasti ’ of the liquid restorer. Time was called with Yale walking down the field for a touch-down. Pinal score. Peru to. Yale 6. Following this stunt was an indoor field-meet of the various classes, in which the Juniors won. I hose deserving especial mention are Pai nes. Professors ( )vcr- liolt and I )elzell. and Miss Wchrs. The broad jump (grin) was awarded to Professor Delzell; Miss Wchrs was given a close second. It was thought bv the friends of Miss Wchrs that Professor Delzell’s terrible temper was feared, and for that reason the record for a grin was given to him with a spread of fourteen inches. The meet closed the evening’s entertainment, after which light refreshments were served and the guests departed feeling that the evening had been well spent. Out hmnlml sr rt n I si.r Y. M. C. A. STAG SOCIAL Thursday evening, September .23, at 7:45. music was hoard from all corners of town, the signal for all the fellows to leave their dens and fall in line in the raiid march to the gymnasium. Practically every man in school turned out. A short and terse hut interesting and instructive program was rendered. Master of Ceremonies Morgan then announced several “stunts. into which all present entered with vim and enthusiasm. Striking and appropriate prizes were given to the winners. When the jollity was at its highest, “Tram]) Truman, suffering from an enormous tumor, entered the arena in great agony and called for the services of a surgeon. “Dr. I'ostder and his able assistants, with the aid of a huge butcher-knife and a pair of heavy meat-cleavers, succeeded in removing the superfluous growth. 'The tumor proved to be filled with fragrant “wienies. Later these were greatly relished by all. Lveryone went home when the lights winked, feeling that the bonds of friendship which unite us all into one brother- hood. had been strengthened. FAREWELL RECEPTION FOR PROFESSOR SEARSON ( )n the evening of Pebruary 24 students and faculty of the Normal united in showing the feeling of friendship and high esteem for Professor |. Y.

'This informal gathering was held at the baptist church, and as the appointed hour drew near the church was filled with friends awaiting the arrival of the unsuspecting guests of honor, who were soon to he brought in. attended by an escort of students. The professor himself was carried in on the shoulders of the boys, amid the hearty cheers of all present. The best talent of the school was engaged in honor of the occasion. The Normal (dee Club rendered some of its best selections. Professors Cornell and I louse also delighted all present with excellent musical numbers, after which (be presidents of each of the classes addressed the assembly. W hen this part of the program was concluded. Mr. Scarson responded, and in his characteristic optimistic way delivered a message which will not soon he forgotten.

The room, which had been converted into a spacious parlor, was tastefully decorated with festooning of red and white, and with Senior pennants. While the daintv refreshments, which harmonized with the prevalent idea of the even- ing. were being served, strains of Irish music were wafted through the air.

I he first scene showed the debaters preparing their speeches. Mr. Hobblem practiced oratorx on “Txvin- kle. Twinkle, Little Star,” and Mr. Stoddard gave Mr. Doxxin a practical demon- stration of what constitutes “a point. The debate was opened by Mr. Stoddard, whose tlow ot language was mar- velous, and whose gestures were made more elfeclive by the uiagnilirent diamond (?) ring which he wore. Mr. Pettit based his argument upon three theories, the nebular hypothesis, the Pythagorean theorem, and the iiewh disc vered principle of electric bubbles. He scored a point when he said that as eveix thing xxas matte ! and all matter was possessed of properties, women, being mallei, must be ulloxxed to hold property. Mr. (iowin was somewhat slow in taking the lloor. owing to some confu- sion in transferring Mr. Stoddard s diamond to a conspicuous place on his own linger. 11 is opening xvords were gix eti in that x ell-kn n tlmmlerims oicc, “All men are created free and equal: but all men are not endowed with the grace and eloquence of my honorable opponents.

A11 informal program consisting of a short story by (A M. Penny, two vocal solos by Josephine Loomis, and a reading by I . Marcellus, was given, IA W Marcellus presiding, Fol- lowing the program Professor X. A. Bengston presented the recommendations of the committee on organization, which were: “That a president and seeretarv- treasnrer he elected and that no constitution he written.” This report, with some slight changes, was adopted. It was decided to call the organization “The Peru C lub.” with hut one qualification for membership—that the member shall at some time have been a student or teacher at Peru. Miss Mabel Bridges, ’02. was elected president, and Miss Maine Jackson. ’03. secretary-treasurer. After a general social time, enjoyed by all. light refreshments were served, concluding the pleasant evening.

OUR NEXT MOVE At the close of the school year of 1910 our number will have passed the twelve hundred mark. We are fast becoming a potent factor in the school affairs of Nebraska. The class of 1909 alone have earned, the past year, over eightv thousand dollars; and the class of 1910. with its larger number teaching, w ill doubtless raise the mark to nearly ninety thousand. The total annual earn- ing capacity of the Peru alumni will reach nearly five hundred thousand dollars next year. The State Normal has done so much for us that many of the alumni feel it is time to show our appreciation by doing something for our Alma Mater. A letter was sent out by the executive committee last year to all the alumni concerning the advisability of erecting an alumni building, as headquarters for our association and the C hristian organizations of the school. There was a ven heartv response; some even pledged one per cent of their salary for live vears, if the project should be undertaken. If this should be done by all the alumni, a twenty-five thousand-dollar association building will be standing on our campus as a memorial building in 1915. tin 1 hinnlrii fii h t it '• mst 30AM ABOVE l ¥iEB£ Our alum a1 AP.t i THE SENIOR CLASS PLAY WHEN KNIGHTHOOD WAS IN FLOWER” A PLAY IX FOUR ACTS By Paul Kester.

Th e Peruvian I___________1910_______________ You will search a long while be- fore you will find a class-book as well printed as the Peruvian for 1910, unless you happen to find one of the others we printed this year. Good printing is the only kind we do it is the only kind you can af- ford to buy. A book printed and bound by us is something you will look through with pleasure if you are a lover of the beautiful, as we know you are. The very best is the only sort of printing that pays the only sort that is worth while—no matter what its purpose. The work done on this volume of the Peruvian is a sample of the qual- ity of the printing you get if you send your orders to us. We print everything. We want your busi- ness. Monarch Printing Co.
