As a class and as individuals, you will ever be held in high esteem by faculty and student body. During your connection with the school you have contributed very largely toward the maintenance of high standards of young manhood and womanhood that are traditionally the ideals of the school. Your loyalty anti increasing devotion to its purposes and ideals will be to us cherished memories of the two years you have been under its guidance and direction. With the publication of this, the sixth volume of the Peruvian, the majority of your class will have reached another milestone in your educational career. Uv that time you will have chosen your widely separated fields of activity for the next school year. In numbers your class ranks first in the long list of graduates sent out annually from Peru. In personnel you rank with the high- est of the splendid tvpe of manhood and womanhood represented in the classes that have gone before you. With these possessions you have the ability to be leaders in the scores of communities in which as individuals you may labor, and also to influence profoundly the educational policies of the great stale of Nebraska. While we arc conscious, that the world has never before been so exacting in its demands upon the teacher, conscious that you are entering a profession teeming with possibilities, yet fraught with grave responsibilities, we bid you Godspeed. We do this with confidence that each and every one will go forth living a life replete with service. 'I our friend. D. W. HAYES. (0m iFantltu Enters an innocent, prospective student at the Peru Stale Normal. Me is lost and knows not what to do. I tut help conieth for he is hailed by a member of the faculty who counts up his credits, arranges his course of study and l . In- is launched on his career at that institution, where in every class he is treated by the respective instructors with the utmost kindness and consideration. Later he decides to enter as a candidate for the āāteam. hut knows nothing of the game. A member of the faculty is there at every practice to coach to suc- cess. Our friend is musical and decides to join the Mice (. Inti and chorus. member of the faculty is in charge of the strenuous business of securing har- mony from three hundred untrained voices. School isn't complete without join- ing a literary society, and then again In- finds that the club is indebted to an instructor for its adviser. Fie joins the Y. M. and some member of the laeultv holds the rudder there. 11 is last year comes and the goal is reached, lie is now ready for a position. He is ail intelligent able young man and full equipped for his business of teaching, but he is unknown. What will he do? No need to worrv for he is now as ever sure of aid from the never-failing source. A member of the faculty places him! Long live our faculty, the members i.f whom are ever ready to place their time and effort at the disposal of the students and to whom we are indebted from the day of matriculation to that of graduation!

Whether as the result of the awakening of his own sense of a square deal, or whether the result of a teacher's efficiently taught lesson on loyalty, we know not. but lie returned at the age of eleven, to Jasper City and remained there till he was fifteen. lie graduated front the High School, decided that Horace t ireeley when he said tin west should have added of Missouri. and returned to Nebraska. In the fall of the same year he entered the State Normal at Peru where presumably he was called upon to exhibit his mental capacity in writing plans and in extracting wisdom from Mc.Mtirry. After two rears of such strenuous effort lie decided that a time of recrea- tion was imperative to his well being. The recreation consisted o! a year of teaching in a country school near llrook. another year as instructor of the grammar grades of that city and an equal period as principal of the Nemaha schools, lie then returned to the Peru State Normal from which institution lie graduated in 1906. During the two years following his graduation he superintended the pro- cess of incorporating in the minds of the rising generation of Pender the rare qualities of tenacity and mental expansion. I11 1908 he come to Peru as a teacher of science but finding that all play and no work is as undesirable its all work and no play, he spent the year of 191 1 at the State I niversity where he graduated at the end of the year, lie has attended the Chicago University and has also leave of absence for next year to further extend his education. We cannot boast, as did our predecessors, that our adviser is so liomelv as to he almost handsome, nor can we predict with any certaintv what high rank lie will achieve. Suffice to say that of any subsequently great attainment we could truthfully say: It doesn't surprise us in the least. 77iirt r oitr s Kir:u3iiUjnu iaij iiTizvrj: HEr - P R y n Gtkt ______________________________::: n ā I A.

And there came lip out of many lands certain young men and young women to sojourn in the land of Peru. Some of them were of the tribe of Brownvillites, and some were Cityitcs. And many of them were Pernites, and all were bright lights. 2. In the land of Peru they gathered themselves together to the number of two score and six. that all might praise, saying, 3. Verily this is the class. 4. And a year passed by and they waxed strong in wisdom and athletics. 5. And they talked among themselves with much laughter, saying: Let us have a picnic and make merry, for the time flieth and man's life is but a brief span, and we arc Sophomores but once. 6. Therefore, let: the cider and weenies be brought forth and let us ascend unto Point Everett. 7. And, therefore, there was great rejoicing among those of the tribe of āFifteen. Selah. 8.

A great many of the Freshman Class are boys and girls of our own Peru, and we will therefore probably have quite a number to support the class through- out the four years.

Dean Rouse, superintendent of the training school, has general direction, and Principal M. C. Leller gives his entire time to the work. The demand has made necessary an additional training teacher who was employed for the first time this year. Miss Lillian Henne, assistant, is doing this work. ihe grades have their own class organizations, athletic teams, and social gatherings. Every year a reception is given to the Seniors, and class evenings fc are reserved each semester for High School parties. The officers of the tenth grade are: Joseph (larver, president: Walter Christenson, vice president; Margaret Iones, secretary-treasurer; Lloyd Colglazier, sergeant; Nellie Kelly, chairman program committee, and Vic Jones, yell leader. While in the ninth grade Robert Sandberg, president; C lara Deck, vice president; Ben Hoadley. secretary-treasurer, and Ida Tobin, chairman pro- gram committee, who take care of the affairs of the class.

CI.AIIK. A It.. AI'VISKH ptilmuathnm I lu' iik'a m the Society has been to maintain high literary excellence in its programs. It has also been the aim to introduce one feature in each meet- ing which would furnish novel and original entertainment. The Iārogram Committee planned to have each member appear on some program: thus proving the old motto. āPhilomathcans Respond to Duty. Io carry out this plan a new application card was devised on which the applicant for membership states, in response to definite questions, just what part he can take on the programs. A card catalogue system for keeping the membership record has also been planned. The society has purchased a piano for Iāliilo Hall this year, and other improvements are forthcoming since the condition of the treasury is so satisfactory. The Philomathcans are very proud of their own musical organizations; an excellent male quartette, an octette of mixed voices, and an orchestra directed and maintained entirely by the membership. Because of this talent Philo does not find it necessary to depend oil outsiders for musical or literary numbers. Several get acquainted meetings were held throughout the year, w hich tended to strengthen the bonds of friendship among the members. The Iāhilo- mathean spirit has never been stronger than it is now. with the loyal mem- bership and high ideals of service. Some of the members have suggested that each Philomathcaii organize a literary society wherever lie goes to teach, and thereby extend the name and the spirit of )I 1 Philo.

Never before has this organization approached so near the height of its ambition as it has in the months just passed. Kverett is indeed, coming into its own. In the middle of the year our advisor, Miss Katherine I.. Woods, at her own request resigned her position, and it is altogether seemly that a word should he said here in appreciation of her work. To her we owe a debt that is deeper than words, for her ceaseless activity and co-operation for inspiring efforts have been no insignificant factors in our success. But, however, much we may regret the loss of Miss Woods still we are not despondent. Prof. W. R. PIull has been chosen to be her successor, and we rejoice that we could obtain a man so capable as we believe him to be. Wo are confident that with so good a pilot to help us at the helm, safe sailing may well be ours. What was perhaps the climax of our effort was the open session play, a scene from which is presented on a later page. The excellence of this produc- tion will doubtless be recalled by those who were present. The Rose of Old Plymouth Townā was its name, and if you will but look at the picture it is possible you will discover who the heroes were. The Kvcrett orchestra has been one of our great sources of pleasure, and only recently a girls' octette has been organized within the society.

For the second semester, the people elected were: President. Clella Stitflft: Vice-president, Lillian Powers; Secretary, Maud Nelson; Normalite Reporter, Elma Zinn. The organization consists of thirty young ladies who meet every week for the purpose of discussing current and other interesting questions. 1 liat the Athenians have marked ability is shown: Idrst. by their proving to the Cicerotiians that Sunday baseball should be prohibited. Second, by two of the members winning places in the intercollegiate de- bates and two others winning honorary mention. Third, by their wonderful power of argumentation with which they induced the Cicerotiians to meet with them everv Saturday night and thereby become benefited by competing with these young ladies. However, the boys were very bright and all enjoyed the heated discussion over the question, āResolved, That the bachelors who refuse to marry should be taxed for educational purposes. Interesting current questions that we are to debate are: Resolved. That the United States should intervene in Mexico. āResolved, 'that the State University buildings be moved to the State Farm.ā And we feel sure that the state will abide by our decision. We do not confine our meetings to debating and parliamentary drills but are frequently entertained by musical numbers and occasionally enjoy social evenings. lintā Ini 11 tired riyhl lr V f f i Ā« i f g s ? f r 1 J?

' t s fc (hit hftHilrrtl cit hlttH SHtr Nrst iHmtr When a nation, a community, or an individual fails to have the ānext move, its future growth ceases. It is equally true of any organization. It is essential for good hearty growth to have the ānext move. Our association for years existed; its members were loyal and true to the school, and the fraternal spirit was held only by the love for our Alma Mater. The Association met front year to year to elect its officers, and adjourn. We took a deep interest in the wel- fare of the school, yet seemed to have no place for the future development of the organization. In one or two instances it was even unknown to those present at the annual meeting, who the officers of the association really were. This does not mean that the rank and tile or our Alumni have ever ceased to take an interest in the growth and welfare of our institution. In 1905 began a new era in our Alumni Organization. E. O. Garret, ā95, was elected president and X. A. Bengston, 02, secretary. These gentlemen with the co-operation of President Crabtree planned a very important ānext move.ā Our association at that time numbered about 500. They conceived the plan of the establishment of a Teachers Bureau by the Association. The object of this bureau was to aid the unfortunate alumni who failed in re- election, to assist the Alumni who deserved promotion, and to help locate the graduates from year to year in good positions. This department of the asso- ciation put new life and vigor into the organization . From that time it be- came a potent factor in the educational circles of Nebraska. Each year the Alumni salary of teachers located amounts to over $100,000. For the ānext move, the annual meeting of the Alumni was changed from Commencement time to the fall meeting during the State Teachersā As- sociation. The Association, since 1905, has not been without its ānext move. A year ago the ānext move was to put the Association upon a firm financial foundation. Supt. A. J. Stoddard, president, and Professor B. C. Hendricks, secretary, undertook this movement. They introduced the life membership scheme, whereby any Alumnus, paying $5.00. could become a life member and be relieved of paying future dues. No movement has ever been more success- ful. nor more important, than this one. Perhaps no movement was more essen- tial to the lasting growth of the organization. It certainly has been a satisfac- tion to the promoters to sc.c how enthusiastic our Alumni have responded to the call for life members. One half of the class of 1912 are new life members and the majority of the present class of graduates will soon become such. Not only have we had money enough to finance our organization, but a reserve fund lias been accumulated and placed where it will bear a good rate of inter- est.āa small beginning it is true, but nevertheless, money to loan. WTTAT TS TO BE OUR āNEXT MOVE?ā The late C. M. Penney while he was president of our Association, sent a circular letter inquiring about On liHinlrnl unit h n HE PER -U V I A r the feasibility of erecting a memorial building of some nature upon or near the campus to show the appreciation of the graduates for the service rendered by ottr Alma Mater. At that time it did not seem advisable, yet a large number of Alumni became deeply interested in the plan and have cherished the thought that some day the dream of Clifford Penney may he fulfilled. At out- last annual business meeting held in Omaha during the State teachers Asso- ciation, the movement was definitely set on foot by unanimous vote. 1 In- officers were instructed to incorporate our Association under the laws of Ne- braska so that it could legally transact business. It was the unanimous opinion of those present that nothing more fitting could he erected to the memory of that noble man, than to build a Young Men's 11 all to he run upon the basis of our Y. M. C. A. homes, open to Catholic and Protestant alikeā( hristian and non-Christian, the only requirement being Unit each young man he a gentleman. It was provided Lhat funds should he raised for this building by issuing stock certificates to the amount of $30,000.00. t he sold to the Alumni and to the friends of the institution: that this building should he erected purely as a business undertaking, yet with the idea of being a positive help to the old school. It is the hope of President C. E. Henson and the other officers and trustees that these plans will he arranged before the next annual meeting, so that another year will see the building completed. When first wc part we do not heed The loss that parting brings : An āau revoirāunited soon, Robs parting of her stings. A tinge of sadness o'er us steals, That years so swiftly fly: With joy the future beckons still We simply bid āgood-bye. The golden mile-stone now we reach. Nor falter, nor retreat ; Have faith! press on! not yet āEarewcll.ā We hope again to meet. Who knows the love and loss we feel? We turn, with clasped hands And loyal hearts, with āAdios āTo God,ā who understands. DORA M. ROWE. On r h u ml ml turn 111 Dramatic Club .

While every club contributes to the student's education, culture, and re- finement. it is the special purpose of this organization to become better ac- quainted with the German life and literature, to lie able to converse fluently in German and to create an enthusiastic spirit among the German students. Interesting and instructive programs are rendered every fortnight. āDei deutsche (icmuctlichkcit wird dahes night vergessen.

Under his direction two features have been kept uppermost: namely, to inspire students to observe, think and form conclusions in a scientific manner, and to train them to impart such knowledge in a pedagogical and professional way. From a small beginning- housed in two rooms, the department has grown until it now occupies the whole lower story of Science Hall and employs two instructors and twelve assistants. Twelve courses are offered which have as great a range as is com- patible with thoroughness and accuracy. The equipment consists of two lec- ture rooms, two offices, two laboratories, one store room, and a new modern and tip to date green bouse. The department has herbarium and geological and zoological collections. It is, also, well supplied with apparatus including compound microscopes, sliding and revolving microtomes, dissecting instru- ments, paraffin and water baths, equipment for the study of plant physiology, and a fine demonstrating stereopticon.

T REQUEST of a few earnest students in tlie department of art who desired to know more of artists and their work than could be learned through regular class room courses, an art club was organized at the beginning of the spring semester. 'Phis group of stu- dents was joined by others of like tastes and desires, giving the Club a membership of twentv-five for its first semesterās work. While the organization is primarily a study Club it aims, also, to promote art interests in the school in every way possible. Small exhibits will be held when- ever they can he secured, with lectures on related sub- jects. The Club has already enlisted in this work by contributing a small amount towards the expenses of a lecturer for the exhibit held by the Fortnightly Art Club of Peru. The first programmes have been devoted to general art themes with a brief survey of some world pictures by the old masters.

If the poem were to he converted into prose, paraphrased, if you will, the purpose of the poem must, of necessity receive the preponderance of attention. This purpose distinguishes the poem from Tennyson's shorter ballads and lyrics, for in them we find no well defined plot. That this poem consists of no hap- hazard commingling of sentiments is easy to prove. The main theme of the poem and many of the minor situations are so foreshadowed in the prologue as to he readily recognized when again brought to notice in the various cantos. The theme is one of peculiar interest to us today. It deals with the true position of women and undoubtedly incorporates many of Tennyson's own ideas. Before dismissing these notions as crude, we should remember that woman's rights was embryonic in development, a new problem to society and even though the question was beginning to be agitated, its consideration formed the least of manās troubles. But today womanās claim to an equal education with man is fully recognized. The institutions which enable her to receive this equality of learning have already been established. So far all is well: but the Princess Ida succumbed to an error fatal to the success-of her projected reform, the assumption that woman can be all-sufficient, a power unto herself. She was. however, com- pletely disabused of this notion before the conclusion, and if we can conceive a repetition of the situation, it is highly probable that one would find in her an ardent champion of co-education. A recent novelist gives these views to us through the utterances of one of his characters: The modern woman claims everything that belongs by right to man; all of his privileges and most of his vices: yet. when consequences threaten, she clamors for his chivalry and protection. However loath we may be to admit it. there is much truth in the quotation. When the climax in the Princess was reached. Ida did not. as one might confidently expect, entrust the punish- ment of the invaders to her feminine adherents but turned to her brothers thus showing that she had signally failed to realize her complete emancipation from man. After giving due regard to the purpose of any selection we should advert to that which is important in prose, but vastly more so in poetry, that is. style and the art of expressing thought clearly and attractively. In the attainment of this excellence of diction. Tennyson has no peer. To gain an understanding of the possibilities of the English language it is only necessary to note the mar- velous and unexpected combinations of words employed. These, withal, evoke One humin'd forti four so exactly the image desired and seem so fitting that no substitute seems pos- sible. no synonym adequate, and one wonders why the attempt to couch one's own thought in beautiful language is inevitably doomed to failure. It is true that the introduction contributes many lines of pure prose, but they, by reason of Tennysonās characteristic descriptive power, merit praise. The pictures are vividly presented to the imagination and at the same time the meter is maintained. The advantage in not immediately launching into a sea of extravagant metaphor and simile is that the reader has time to adjust his mind to the lines and become a unity with the author. There is a certain charm in the simplicity of the opening stanza, which enables one. as it were, to get his bearings. Then one is prepared for a more daring and startling use of words, particu- larly in the depiction of his characters. Canto I. brings before us a part of the story and the introductions to his dramatis personae. The blue-eved. fair-haired, amorous Prince possessed of his weird affection stands before us as vividly as the: Creat Court Galen who poised his (jilt-head cane. And pawed his beard, and muttered catalepsy. The phrasing devoted to the description of Gama is so clear-cut and incisive that bis snowy hand and signet gemā involuntarily come to mind whenever ati allusion is made to him. Then Gama is made to characterize his daughter, but with every word lie inadvertently betrays himself, making his vacillation and verbosity form the greater contrast to Ida's powerful personality. This concep- tion of Ida comes to us in Canto II. unaided as to interpretation, by any of the characters. There at a hoard by tome and paper sat. With two tame leopards couchād beside her throne. All beauty compass'd in a female form. The Princess. She comes to us surrounded by the symbols of strength and when She rose her height, and said: We give you welcome she appears the very embodiment of power and self-sufficiency. A little later we come to the exquisite lines descriptive of Psycheās babe. A child. In shining draperies, headed like a star. Her maiden babe, a double April old. This and other appealing touches made the babe Aglaia a child of flesh and blood to us and makes her in our remembrance worthy of co-ordination Our hundred forty five with the child in āAurora Leighā' hv Mrs. Browning and with Riley's Krist- Kindle.ā But first, the Lady Psyche herself comes alluringly within our line of vision. Erect behind a desk of satin-wood. A quick brunette, well moulded, falcon-eyed. And on the hither side of twenty summers. What a sharp contrast she forms to Lady Blanche Of faded forni and haughtiest lineaments. With all her autumn tresses falsely brown. A tiger cat in act to spring. Another method which Tennyson frequently employs in his interpretative expression is the grouping of the characters as if they were posed for reproduc- tion by brush or chisel. If the scene where the: Lady stretched a vulture throat And shot from crooked lips a haggard smile and Melissa, A Niobean daughter, one arm out. Appealing to the bolts of heaven. were only materialized it would he one justly deserving of immortalization by a Phidias. Tennysonās appreciation of contrast is also shown in his grouping: All her fair length upon the ground she lay: And at her head a follower of the camp. A charr'd and wrinkled piece of womanhood. Sat watching like a watcher by the dead. But we who lack this constructive ability can realize the greatness of the word combinations only through the intensity of the images called forth hv the author. Canto III. opens with a delightfully impressionistic stanza. Morn in the white wake of the morning star. Came furrowing all the Orient into gold. This quotation serves to illustrate the fact that truth and beauty can he embodied in one sentiment in such a way as t detract nothing from either. To those uninitiated into the realms of literature, science and art the recur- ring literary allusions constitute an insuperable harrier to the fullest enjoyment of the poem. On the other hand, when they arc elucidated, these same elements of historic or legendary reference are seen to contribute much to the reader's One hundred forty-six general knowledge as well as to the richness of meaning expressed. Such ex- tracts as: The Samian Here rises and she speaks A Memnon smitten with the morning sun. and Sphered tip with Cassiopeia. Or the enthroned Persephone in Hades. will suffice as pertinent illustrations. Vet another way of communicating the spirit and feeling to the reader is through the use of hold and brilliant figures.āsimile, metaphor, allegory. Ten- nyson seems to have slighted no one of the whole category of figures in his en- deavor to represent his ideas. The only adverse criticism possible is that too strong similes for the situation in hand arc occasionally used. After advancing thus far. one recognizes that in a favorable critique or analysis of The Princess another point deserves commendation. The delicate little lyrics between each canto arc world-famous. They arc quoted by the public speaker, enjoyed by the scholastically inclined, read by the pupil and sung by the musician. All these and many more will feel themselves better for per- mitting tile melody and beauty of Sweet and Low to sink into consciousness. The climax is attained in this manner. In the recitation of āAsk me no moreāā Ida steps forever from her pedestal of superiority and yields herself to the love of the Prince.

Hack in otic corner of the biological laboratory sat Dan Williams, faithful worker, conscientious student, and ceaseless grind. A glance at his person would have told the story of his worship at the shrine of the intellect: of time too sacred to the pursuit of knowledge to waste even a small part of it in exercise, or in furbishing his bodily apparel. Mis baggy, creaseless trousers and protruding chin proclaimed him the hookworm that lie was: and the only things of mark about his coat were the scroll-like roll of the corners and the crowfoot creases about the button holes. One hundred fortnseven With a dissecting needle in each hand he was intently attacking the hods of an embryo chick in a watch glass before hint. lecasionally he would remove a transfixed bit to a glass slide and study it a moment through the microscope at his elbow. Mottles of stain and Canaria balsam, remains of cover glasses and pieces of eggshell lay scattered about: and in the midst of all this he worked on, feverish to make the moments count. There was no regular laboratory for students that day. and I )an was there that he might do some extra work on his own account. This was the only recreation he ever allowed himself from the persistent pursuit of books. July at rare intervals would a hollow step and the bang of a door be heard in that or in the adjoining room, and someone on an errand bent, pass through. Perhaps the visitor would glance toward the silent worker and let fall a word of recognition. Or he might even have enough curiosity to come and look over his shoulder, handle some of the paraphernalia, and ask a few fool questions in an attempt to appear interested. Then the footsteps would recede and the door would shun behind him. Every now and then a ācouple would carelessly saunter by the window, talking in subdued tonesāof what it matters not. ecasionally, too. the bois- terous āliar! liar!ā of some ill-controlled youth, or the more treble laughter of a group of girls would pierce the room and seek a hearing from its only occupant. But these sounds fell on what fain would be deaf ears. The only thoughts pro- voked were those of disgust for people who thus foolishly would waste their time. Such frivolity had no place in the life of a man of brains. As the hours fled bv Dan Williams worked on at his self-imposed task. But after a while things ceased to go so well with him as at first. The contents of two eggs lay before him. ruined. Dissatisfaction and ennui were creeping over him. His thoughts began to wander, and the work before him stopped. 11 is dull objectless thought floated off beyond his control, and the tables and cabi- nets grew hazy, indefinite. And so he sat. as perhaps we all have done, without an impulse, without a thought, the condition of a weary mind. Finally by a seeming return of his volition from its wanderings, the ma- terials on the table were pushed aside and his head laid on his arms. Then as his stupor became a sleep, one arm fell down, powerless, by his side. Thus unheeded, the hours of the day dragged on. After a time footsteps might have been heard in the adjoining room: queer scraping noises followed; all was silence,āthen came a crash, a fearful shriek, a fall, and again.āsilence. With the last sound of hubbub our sleeper was wide awake and on his feet to investigate. He reached the door of the next room, looked around the cor- ner, and such a sight as met his gaze. The partly demolished skeleton of a dog was scattered about the floor.ābeside it lay the dilapidated body of an old stuffed pelican, and just beyond, in a disheveled little heap, the figure of a girl. One hundred forty riff hi Her shoulders were shaking convulsively and her head was buried in her arms. Is it a wonder that even so dead a gallant as our hero was moved to compas- sion at the sight? He leaned down and asked in accents as tender as he could command. Are you hurt? His only answer was a vigorous shake of the dark head before him and more convulsions. He tried in a clumsy half-apologetic manner to lift her to her feet, but failed. As the man of the occasion he felt that he must do some- thing. hut what to do was the question. He thought of moral suasion and tried that. I'll help you fix the skeleton if you want me to. How did it all happen, anyway? With that the convulsions ceased. A face wreathed with smiles was raised and a laughter choked voice spoke out. Von seem very much concerned about my accident, Mr. Williams. For Dan this was too much. There was one thing he could not stand and that was to have a girl make fun of him. He was altogether too conscious of his own awkwardness for that. And why should any man waste his sympathies on a sillv girl, who went into hysterics because she had upset a museum? He deliberately turned and walked away. A plaintive voice called after him. Hut Mr. Williams, you know you said you would help to fix things up again. I didn't want to be rude, but it was so funny.ā Then in a voice of mingled mirth and self reproach, she added: I wanted the skeleton to study, and thought I could get it down off the cabinet by standing on one of the shelves, and I almost had it. too, when the cupboard began to tip andāandāyou know the rest. Williams came back and put the pelican in place. He then helped gather together the pieces of skeleton. How to repair the poor dogās frame was a question. Hut Dan had a happy thought, and our grind with his arms and hands full of canine parts and with a subdued little maiden at his heels, led forth to the scene of his earlier activities. There, with the help of Canada bal- sam and ten dainty white fingers, the parts were replaced, the wires bent back into shape and the skeleton set aside to dry. Dan then had to explain all about the work he had been doing, even being forced to have a little help with some of the more difficult of his microscopic mounts. It was indeed wonderful how well the slides succeeded. The rest of the story needs no telling. .(Inly these facts are necessary. At the Junior-Senior banquet a few evenings later, there was one man who. contrary to all expectations, did not come alone. For Dan Williams, recluse, grind, and bookworm, was to be known in Peru no more. CHESTER W. HARROW. Onv huntlml farlf nhn ā A r ,TH. ā p Ā£ R. :U V i A N ' _ - _ r | i,.'.

If the observer had been a Junior he might have gone, too, because it was the Class of Nineteen Fourteen. going for a picnic. What mattered if examinations were to follow the next morning? These persons did not believe in mental cramming. and besides an evening in the open air would give them clearer brains and promote better thinking. Upon arriving at the appointed place two baseball teams were formed and an exciting game was played. Those who were not in the teams stood on the side lines and rooted. After the game was over, other games were played in which all could take part. The exercise in the crisp (fetober air created hearty appetites and the invi- tation of the refreshment committee to go to the foot of the hill where a sup- per was spread around a roaring camp lire, was enthusiastically accepted. Mere was the real cramming. the kind in which the Juniors believed. Each one forgot class room formality and proceeded to get better acquaint- ed. Snap shot pictures were taken. It is not known whether the camera was broken or not. Presumably it was. as the pictures have never been seen. The informality led further to roasting apples and toasting marshmallows, (ihost stories were told. The relating of the blood curdling tales reminded them of the spooky midnight hour that was fast approaching, so the class departed knowing that sleep as well as recreation and fresh air should be observed by all good Juniors. burial iEirntta of tfje opijomnreB Deeming it necessary to become better acquainted before the work of the year advanced, we, the Sophomores, on the evening of September the twenty- fourth. proceeded to Point Everett, east of town, for our first jollification and get acquainted picnic. Point Everett, the highest peak between Kansas City and C )maha. is a splendid view point. From this place we could see -Missouri and Iowa, and a grand view of the moonlight on the river. Shortly after arriving we built a large fire on which we roasted weenies and marshmallows, and then we participated in other inviting refreshments. The evening was spent in playing games of various kinds that pleased our fancy. We returned home via the river, many stopping to enjoy a short boat ride. Thus we ended our first picnic feeling amply repaid for our efforts. One humtml flftj ritjht The second social event in our little circle was a Hallowe'en party held in the Old Hand Room. The hallway was decorated with 15 pennants and the Hand Room decked with autumn foliage was indeed an inviting place. One corner, with its vine covered arbor, was in great demand. The witchās kettle, the fortune tellerās booth, adding to the general mystery of the atmosphere, oc- cupied a conspicuous corner. The fireplace, in the little room on the end, in- creased somewhat the general home-likeness of that room. It was indeed, a motley crowd that presently assembled. Persons from al- most all climes and all callings in life were there, from āOld Haramā and the typical āBumā to our worthy adviser dressed as the Ottoman Turk. During the refreshment period, the telling of ghost stories was in vogue. Our adviser surpassing all others in that line. At the āwinkā of the light we departed with a hasty but hearty cheer for the class ā15. O11 the evening of November 16th the Sophomore Class was entertained at the home of Professor and Mrs. Smith. The first of the pleasant entertainments was the game of Conversation. Cards, on which were interesting subjects, such as Thacker a la Auto. Dates. Weather. Kearney vs. Peru, were distributed. On each of these subjects each one was allowed three minutes to talk with the per- son whom his card designated. Adding to the pleasures of the evening was that never-failing amusement. āStunts.ā The company was divided into four groups which retired to separate rooms for rehearsal. The Circus Parade was the first to make its appearance, led by a splendid band, recently imported from the regions of Kitchendom. A scene in chapel followed this performance. After the usual opening song members of the faculty were well impersonated. As the curtain rose the third lime, the Bridal party descended the stairs to the strain of a wedding march. The curtain fell at the end of the service on a very solemn gathering, only to rise again for the last performance, the vaudeville. A delicious picnic luncheon was then served. To say the Sophomores enjoyed themselves would be a very mild form of appreciation. Kvery Sophomore knows that he would say, āNine Railās for our adviser.ā Mortal iEupntH nf tlip 3Fn shman (ElaHH The first social event of the Freshman Class was a picnic, which was held a short distance from town about the last of September, and to which each mem- ber took a cup and a spoon. 1'hc C lass started from the library, being preceded by Prof. Heck, Milton Blankenship, and Rachel Rader, who were the cooks of the occasion, and after a short walk reached the appointed place.

I am sure that no one who attended the Philo Halloween party can, for everyone seemed to enjoy himself to the fullest extent. The gymnasium was so thronged with wierd figures, old and young, on the evening of October 31, that a person was apt to think he was indulging in mad fancies which come after hearing a ghost story or participating in a mid- night lunch, indeed it was most blood curdling to see the white garbed forms of ghosts here and there and everywhere, and to hear their queer, horrible voices condemning the actions of mortals. Witchesāreal ones with peaked caps and broom sticksāwhizzed by with a moaning, wheezing sound warning you to beware of injuring their cats lest bad luck should attend you. Mother (.loose characters were there in great numbers, to say nothing of clowns, fat and slim, fashionable ladies of ā76 with powdered hair ami rustling silk dresses, old Arkansas farmers, gaiety girls with red dresses and redder checks, and a multitude of gypsies and negroes. All manner of sports may be indulged in when one is lurking in the shadow of a mask, but of course coquetting heads the list. Rvervone flirtedāeven Pro- fessor Lefier proved to be quite a heart smasher while guarding the entrance to Hades. Some were bold enough to enter the dire confines of Hades in order that they might behold the bones of their ancestors raging in the flames, or to shake hands with the ghosts. Others more timid contented themselves at the fortune- telling booths and side shows. All enjoyed talking to the unknown personages whom they met on every hand. Then. too. there were queer games and dances by the light of the Jack-oā-lanterns. Pumpkin pie, apples, and cider refreshed the tired revelers. After more games the party broke up and all our visitors, weary but no longer wierd. promised to come back next Halloweāen to aid his Satanic Majesty at his next annual reception. Onr huntlrrtl xi.rtj tiro Ā©lje iCymim (Course The first number on the list of entertainments anti lectures for the year of 1912-1913 was a concert hv the University Girls on November 4th. The music was attractive and varied, of that undemonstrative kind that reaches the heart without a whirlwind of noise. The program had considerable dignity, the per- formers seemed attractive and ladylike. The reader charmed the audience with an originality not often seen in elocutionists. Most pretentious of all the numbers of the course was the concert given by die Neapolitans. This large company of ten musicians made a fine appearance in their Italian garb. Mine. Trevette sang from Italian opera as only an Italian can. She and her husband were called back six times and even then the audi- ence was not satisfied. Evidently an educated English audience can appreciate Italian singers. One of the most delightful evenings music loving Peru ever experienced, came March 4. when Albert Lindquest. Chicagoās brilliant young and rising tenor, held a large audience spellbound by the beauty, clearness and power of his voice. Although he sang a long and varied program the interest did not lag for one moment. Mr. Lindquest was assisted by Miss Rita Thomas, head of the Piano Department of the School. It is not too much to say honors were equally divided between Singer and Pianist. Miss Thomasā playing revealed a depth of feeling, a grace of beauty that completely won her hearers. There remains two numbers at this writing. Rogers and Grillcy. and Dr. Cadtnan, and that will end the course for the year. Nearly the whole school and many townspeople take advantage of these lectures and entertainments. iEwrrtt $jaUmup n Party The basement of the library was a scene of much jollity and fun on the evening of October 31. The occasion was a Hallowe'en party at which the Everett's entertained their members and friends. The members of the faculty were special guests of the evening. To add to the mystery of the event, each one was to come masked. The rooms had been appropriately decorated for the occasion with black- cats. jack-o'-lanterns and other things pertaining to Halloweāen. As one entered through the window, he was greeted more cordially per- haps than he wished by two ghosts. As he stepped from the ladder, by which he had climbed down from the window, he alighted on a carpet of dry leaves. The rest room, which they entered, was dimly lighted by a single Jack-oā-lan- tern. thus making the scene a weird one. After the scene Bluebeard's Wives was given, the guests set about to discover the identities of their neighbors. Some very original ideas were used One hundred sixty-thrcc in the planning of the costumes, and. as a result, some beautiful as well as comic characters were represented. Then, when the masks had been removed and each guest was able to recog- nize the other, the fortune-wheel and fortune-teller were kept busy by those who were curious as to the future. After various other amusements suited to the occasion, refreshments of cider, doughnuts a ltd apples were served. Soon after this the guests departed, but the memories of that enjoyable evening still remain with each 1 me who was present. (Eliristiatt Ā©rgamzatiimaā IKerpjituiu As the train nears Peru suit-cases are set up. gloves slipped on. and parasols and pocket-books gathered together. The students who have been here before have a pleasant and an anticipating look on their faces. They step off, greet old friends, and hurry to their rooming places. The new students arc just as anxious to get off the train, but faces are strange and there is an anxious tug at the heart as they wonder where they will spend the night. What a relief to the weary and bewildered girl with a heavy suit-case, to have a sunshiny girl step up and ask if she may carry the suit-case and help find a room. The Y. Y.

On their way to the library thev are con- fronted by a bulletin inviting them to come into the Y. M. Den or Y. V. Rest Room and refresh themselves with a cool drink of lemonade. On Saturday the instructors are happy and satisfied becanses they believe they have given every student enough to do to keep him from getting home- sick. In spite of this fact the day is spent spasmodically in getting the room in shape to live in all year, and in crying because it is necessary to spend the year in it.

A. and I-.. members have been busy all day converting the gym into a reception hall and preparing the punch, livery student and faculty member is there. You meet everybodv and evervbody meets you. About 11 o clock the students return to their rooms with a suf- ficient amount of courage to live through the first Kundav and begin the work Monday in real earnest. fiĀ«r htnnlntl Mist 1 four Slltp Athlftir (Harntual The second annual Carnival held February 1, 1913. was a great success. This is one of the worthy enterprises instigated by our coach, which, we believe, will he carried on with good results through the years to come, not only to aid the Athletic association financially, but as one of the big social events of the year. The carnival was one incident of the vear that will be remembered with pleasure by all students. For one day the usually quiet and orderly gym is changed into a scene which could easily compete with the annual street fair of the small town. The many organizations of the school were well represented: the Seniors managed the large, general booth in the center of the room, and also with the help of a court and well established police force, took charge of all disorderly and riot ions people. Any one caught in a misdemeanor of any kind was im- mediatelv arrested and fined and those who were financially embarrassed and could not pay the fine were required to serve a specific time in jail. The boast of the police was. that they would arrest all the professors who came down and they succeeded in capturing most of them on some pretext or k. another, taking Prof. Howie on the grounds that he was occupying entirely too much space in the gym. The Juniors gave two entertainments, a play entitled The Mouse Trap,ā and a Negro Minstrel Show. lloth attractions were rendered in fine style and each performance was always greeted by a large audience. The other classes and organizations put on different stunts, all of them for the purpose of showing the crowd a jolly good time. One or two individuals deserve special mention. Mr. Ramsey, as the div- ing negro, who was so popular and who caused so much excitement last year, was back at the old stand with the same pep and enthusiasm, which made his stunt one of the best money makers of the carnival. Mr. John Wear as the general Novelty man. played his part equal to any professional in the business. The Carnival was exceptionally well attended and we hope that in years to come it mav he conducted with the same profitable results as have been already realized. ullip Annual QMymjrira We are beginning at this age of student civilization to consider the old time free-for-all or class-scrap, to he a relic of our ancient ancestors, yet regardless of our belief of this statement: there is in the heart of each loyal class member a desire to fight for the supremacy of his class. Following the custom established last year the classes, the Sophs working with the Seniors and the Freshman with the Juniors, agreed to have a day of (hit' lnuttlml sij'ty flrt athletic contests, which would decide all disputes as to which class should reign supreme. The contests were all scheduled, each event counting so many points for the winners. One of the most exciting and most hotly contested events was the girlsā relav race which was won hv the Seniors by a very small margin. The Grand Tournament was started by the cross-country run. the distance was four miles, and the two leading contestants were side by side when they entered on the last ioo yards, where the crowd was able to see a close finish. The Seniorās man had the wind and reserve strength and easily distanced his opponent. The next event was the free for all football rush, where the contestants could push, pull and wrestle as much as they pleased and though the Juniors out-numbered the Seniors when the whistle was blown, calling time, the Seniors were declared winners by a large score. After this came boxing and wrestling contests, a lug of war. and various races. The honors for these events were about evenly divided. Lastly was to have been pulled off the famous flag rush which is used in many schools for the free-for-all event; but upon investigation it was found that the Seniors had won without the additional points of this contest so both classes agreed to call it off. The climax of the whole affair was the uniting together of the entire school in a grand feed, given on the Athletic field, the winners rejoicing over their victory and the losers relating What might have been. yet feeling that all past grudges had been adjusted and agreeing that peace should reign until another reckoning day. The following is a description by an interested spectator; The Seniors and Juniors of the Peru State Normal have again settled their minor differences in the Olympics of last Friday. No tongue can fully de- scribe, no pen picture the clash in its intenseness, its awfulness. Six hundred girls stood on the bank and shouted encouragement until they were hoarse, two hundred squawked the victory for the Seniors. Let Irving tell about it, And now commenced the horrid din, the desperate struggle, the maddening ferocity, the frantic desperation, the confusion and self-abandonment of ācon- testā of āSeniors and Juniorsā and then continuously it was whack, thump, crash, blows, kicks, bites, scratches, black eyes and bloody noses; head-over- heels, rough and tumble, grunts of pain, veils of fury and finally shouts of triumph, āThe SENIORS have WON.ā Ut. Umtott Say The evening of February the 22 1 will be one long remembered by the girls of Mt. Vernon Hall. Then it was that all put aside the cares of the class room to join in the pleasures of a real colonial evening. It has been the custom for years to open the hall on one day of each year One hundred uisly nijr for a reception. This event is one always looked forward to with much antici- pation. for each year brings new and interesting variations in the entertainment. Formerly, the hall lias always been open to everyone. This year however. Miss Stoner entertained at a house partv when only those staying at Mt. Vernon were guests. The lower halls were beautifully decorated in pen- nants. Hags and streamers in the national colors, which converted them into a parlor and reception room. At 8 oāclock, distinguished guests, whom Miss Stoner as Martha Washing- ton graciously received, began to arrive. George Washington with his bride, whose wedding occurred in the course of the evening, were the most honored guests. Some young Indian maids added a pretty effect with their black braids and bright colored robes. The company lived again in a few scenes, pictured in pantomime, from the life of George Washington. A beau- tiful American Beauty rose was presented to the one best representing some incident in that great manās life. The proverbial cherry tree with the hatchet was in evidence, many of the guests receiving hatchets of paper as souvenirs. Fvcryone greatly enjoyed the Virginia Reel as well as the Minuet. At the hour of half past nine, ices with dainty cakes were served to the guests in groups. After these refreshments, all sang songs, finally ending with our na- tional hymn. iSmiitimi nf tij? Ā©raining irjiartmrnt tn the rninra An occasion never to be forgotten by the class of 1913 was that of the reception given by the Training Teachers to the Seniors on March 1st. The entire first floor of the Administration Building was decorated beyond recognition with pictures. Howers and ferns. liven the most retiring, timorous Senior had scarcely arrived before the joc- ular spirit which prevailed, bad cast its spell upon him. There was no oppor- tunity given for one to become bored, for various amusements followed each other in rapid succession, each one proving to be as interesting as the one pre- ceding. The moving picture shows and vaudeville āstuntsā retained the popu- larity which they enjoy elsewhere. It was here, too, that the Seniors came to a full appreciation of the value and enjoyment to be found in an old-time spelling match. As the evening drew to a close dainty refreshments were served. The most novel sensation experienced by the Seniors during the entire evening, was at this time, when they, seated in elaborate ease, were waited upon by a stately parade of training teachers, headed by Dean Rouse. livery Senior felt the deficiency of his vocabulary when he came to express his appreciation of one of the most enjoyable evenings he had ever experienced.

T HACK HR Whatever has been accomplished in athletics this year lias been due to the untiring efforts ii the coach. The team was largely composed of new material and the conch worked earnestly and inceĀ antly to round them into a working machine. While the scores of this year did not show the work of an exceptionally strong aggregation, yet we predict the fruit from the labor done this year will he evident next fall. I he coach taught the fellows to put up a good, clean, sportsmanlike light and through his stern yet sympathetic nature, lie lias won tin admiration of every man on the team. SIMS.

If we have told the truth on more than one or two occasions we humbly beg your pardon, for we did not mean to. We expect to hear a lot about this book and much more will be said that we do not hear. If everybody, including the faculty, reads seventy-five per cent of it we shall feel that it is a success.

Invite in some of the girls, get the chafing dish ready or borrow the neighbor's alcohol lamp. Four ingredients in the pan and boil, being careful that the window is kept open so the savory odors may escape outdoors instead of into the corridor. Cook several minutes, flavor, remove from the fire, heat and pour into a buttered plate. When cool, cut into squares.

He must not smoke nor drink nor be guilty of the attendant evils. 10. lie must not sneer at religion nor joke about it.

Liroekcr: I cannot advise you in these columns. Please send a self- addressed envelope. Jo. G: Do not despair. Marked attention from twelve young men dur- ing one semester is really not so bad in Peru, you know. Turk: Make a clean breast of everything to the young lady. If she reallv cares for you. she will be glad to share your poverty. Roger II.: Yes, I think your father is right. $100.00 per month ought to see you through, considering the institution. Chris: Your case is unique, but the editor stuns it up as follows: Young ladies whom you admire leave Peru just as soon as you seem to be having a good show. We are a little in the dark, but would suggest that you do not rush future cases too much. All things come to hint who waits. Miss Bolejack: No. the difference in the ages of you and the young class president is not enough to prevent a closer tic than that of friendship. Not knowing him. we cannot well suggest a definite procedure of winning him, but as you say, smiles are usually effective with men. Nettie Fowler: Your mother is right. Throw your box of rouge out of the window. Mr. Youngman: Be of good cheer. You may find someone in the near future who will appreciate your extraordinary qualities and your ability to pay a compliment. Judging from your name. I think you should be very popular with the fairer sex. as young men are much in demand in Peru. Humph: We realize that things seem to be against you in your matri- monial prospects, but remember that the darkest hour is just before daylight. You look young, so keep still about your age. and the younger girls will find you charming. j āll I Ija $ pi I ; Hi t i ā k.
