I ' 4? 4 i Eif h ter i (Srrrtinga Fur more than twenty-five years, it has been my good fortune to know the Peru State Normal School, its faculty and its graduates. As a public school superintendent, it has been my duty to visit the campus from year to year in search of teachers. It is only fair to say that among the many teachers selected, there was no disappoint- ment in personal character, or in suitable preparation for the teach- ers work. And my experience is but a repetition of that of other school men. 'the present is a period of readjustment in every line of human endeavor, 'this is especially true in teacher training. The war pe- riod of high salaries and low standards in qualification for teaching is passing. The people as a whole deem it better to l-eadjust qualifi- cations rather than to lower salaries. Hence more students enter teacher training institutions and remain for longer and better prep- aration. The Nebraska State Normal schools are developing into colleges for teachers. Secondary or high school work can no longer be con- sidered a part of the college, but must take its place as preparation for the college. The high school must also serve as a training school for the students who are to become high school teachers on comple- tion of the full four years of college. The training school thus be- comes a complete system of graded schools, beginning with the kin- dergarten and including all grades as well as the complete four year high school. Bright as has been the record of “old Peru” as a Normal School a still brighter future is in store for this institution as a 1 eachei s College. Every loyal Peruvian—student, faculty member, and friend of teacher training,— will continue to be an active factor for bottei teachers and better schools for the children of our state. Woiking together for the same end, it must be that we shall realize our loud- est hopes in the up-building of the institution we all love. A. E. Caviness. W. N. I i:r.

H. i ,'irmihj otr r £ ?mnr (Elaisfi The fust graduating class of Peru High School entered the ninth grade of Peru Training School September, 1918, with 29 members. Thi s year was marked by several picnics and part.es in which we discovered what a lively bunch belonged to our class. It was also maiked because a basketball team, composed mainly of ninth grade boys, was organized. The next year was even more successful socially. As this was sup- posed to be our last year the Ninth grade gave a delightful reception in our honor. The next year we entered the Normal as freshmen. We proved that we were fresh- men in name only by having three men playing varsity football. Four of our hoys played with the High School basketball team and were influential in bringing about a victorious season. We also had a gild’s basketball team which met defeat at the hands of the more experienced Sophomores by a small margin. We chose Mr. Schoen- ike to guide us this year and his efforts in our behalf were great y appreciated. This year was seasoned by snappy class chapels each week, three parties, an oyster feed, a theater party and a much-enjoyed picnic which brought the year to a close. About this time we discovered that a twelfth grade High School was to be or- ganized and that our class would have the honor of being the first graduating class. Several new seniors joined the class making the total enrollment 20 members. We wisely chose Charles E. Greene, Superintendent of the Training School, as our sponsor. We are greatly indebted to him for the success of the year. The fol- lowing officers were elected: Pres., Arthur Majors; Vice-Pres., Landen Whitfield; Sec.- Treas., Lucille Harajian. Tho we cannot boast of quantity we give the following facts to show that what we lack in quantity is made up in quality: The captain of both football and basket- ball teams is a senior; the two best basketball guards Peru High School ever had are seniors; the captain of the reserve basketball team is a senior; the girls team is cap- tained by a senior and nearly all the players are seniors; one senior is a member of the debating team; in the college we are represented by three seniors in the Dramatic- Club, two in the Olympic club and several in Literary societies. The first social event of the year was a hard-time party. It was a truly hard- time with the exception of the eats, about which no one could complain. We next wrere called on to give our support to High School Night which was g iven to make money to pay for athletic equipment. The main event of the evening was the mins- trel show, given three times in which several seniors figured, bes ties this we put on a show of our own called “Senior Frolic” which everyone pronounced a success. The whole affair was sponsored by the faculty and the student council of which six are seniors. At the beginning of the basketball season we set an excellent example to the other classes by going over the top with 100' budget ticket holders. This record was not equalled by any other class. When the debating season arrived we decided to again set an example to the other classes so with only one day to work we planned a social hour to follow the debate. Everyone was invited to the gymnasium where a brief program, games, and delicious refreshments were enjoyed. Each debate following was taken over by another class. Toward the end of the first semester the faculty was given the privilege of seeing themselves as others see them. Without their knowing we secured their clothes, and gave a well-prepared program before a large crowd of college and H. S. students and faculty members. Evreyone enjoyed the program and most members of the faculty felt quite flattered. When the Senior class learned that we could have a High School section in the Peruvian we unanimously chose Landen Whitfield editor-in-chief .as his artistic abil- ity is as well known in college as in high school circles. The last part of the year was erowdedi with events: “What Happened to Jones,” our class play; Senior day when we went to Beatrice; Junior-Senior day; and with our Graduation as a grand finale.

H«il iials Sc rent if three iluniora When the doors of the Peru High School opened in 1919 there was a large group of boys and girls just “fresh” from the grades ready to start their four years of High School life. Our first year was made pleasant by several parties and a much en- joyed sleigh ride. Mr. Gable was chosen class sponsor and under his leadership we “pulled through” the first year of our High School existence without very great difficulties. Our second year passed much the same, and in the fall of 1921 the Junior class had the distinction of being the very first Junior class in the newly organized High School. At the beginning of the year the Juniors were very much in evidence. Coatney’s pep machine was one of the out- standing features of all high school activities. Early in the term a business meeting was held for the purpose of electing officers and a class sponsor. Mr. Brownell was chosen sponsor and under his kindly guidance the following officers were elected : Pres ident, Arleen Ritchie; Vice President, Lucile Meek; Secretary, Iiowenn Beck; Treasurer, Roscoe Wright. Colors: red and white. The .Junior class has taken a very active part in all school activities, giving a very interesting little play in chapel the first of the year and con- tributing largely to the talent in the famous Minstrel Show given “High School Nite”. In athletics, the Juniors have been very prominent, having three first team men in Basket Ball and the second team was made up mostly of Jun- iors. In our short but successful football season, seven first team Juniors helped to bring victory to Peru. The girls had a strong basket ball team but met defeat at the hands of the more experienced Senior girls in the inter-class game. A number of class parties and entertainments were held during the year including the reception after one of the debates. We would also like to say that Roscoe Wright, a Junior, has taken a very active part in this year’s debating society. The student council members include five Juniors who will be ready next fall to help make the second year of the Peru High School a still greater success than this year. The present Junior class has very bright prospects ahead for the coming year. We have quantity in our class but do not lack quality, as has been shown in all school activities this year. A large part of the Junior class is coming back next year, so watch our “smoke” in 192”. • _ a. ,SYrrn I y orr I f’nsoy. Fisher. Kllioft. Hoyt. TTeywood. Waltz. Kiser. Brown Adams, Knssol. Dahlstrom.

However, we believe in the proverb, “Little, but oh my!” The following officers were elected for the current year: Bartlett Vance, Presi- dent; Marion Overholt, Vice President; Grant Casey, Secretary; and Philip Hoyt, Treasurer. A great deal of credit is due our sponsor, Mr. Brown, who has guided us through a successful year of our life and left us none the worse for it. On “High School Nile” the Sphomoes “Brought Up Father”, and while doing it held the audience in speechless awe throughout the entire performance. The Sophomores also had charge of a party after one of the debates, and even the .Juniors concede our program was better than theirs. March 10, we held our first class party of the year. Sandwiches, coffee, wafers, Ben Hur soup, and ice cream were served. We left as the lights gave a warning wink, and everyone declared they had had a rare old time. The Sophomores are well represented in all activities. In basketball, John Adams held down a place on second team, while on the girls’ team, we find Gladys Sears among the first. In debating we are represented by Celia Kizer. Grant Casey and Avery Stevens. We feel that the Sophomore class has a bright outlook for 192M. Seemly fire } Davenport. Creon. Wills, I :iIl:iin.

Speer, one need go no further than his wonderful record as a college athlete and a college athletic director to know that he is a man who has attained distinction in the ath- letic world. Coach Speer put in four years of service in the Kansas Aggie footall team and won the honor of being placed on the All-Miss- ouri Valley team. He also played baseball with the Aggies and was the leading infield hitter. It was because of his ability to “lay down bunts’’ and “beat ’em out”, that he re- ceived the nick-name of “Bunt” Speer. While coaching at the Kansas State Teachers’ College, he built up a football team which took the championship of the Kansas conference. He then accepted a call to Peru and performed the miracle of changing the Peru team from a contender for the “cellar” championship to a contender for the highest honors of the conference. During the three years of his serv- ice at Peru, Coach Speer has developed teams which have always been real contenders for championship honors. He never had a team which ranked below 500 per cent. This year has been the most successful one in the history of Peruvian athletics, because of the persistent efforts which the Coach put forth to grab off the Nebraska title. The basketball champ- ionship which rests with our own Peru quintet, is the best possible testi- monial to the coach who not only builds for winning teams, but builds for clean athletics and true sportsmanship.

Sf ninl ley CAPTAIN FLOYDK HICKiINS Tackle, Third Year All-State, 1920-021 It was a red letter day for Peru when Hi ' decided to abandon the cultivator and plow, to hang: up the tattered straw hat and faded blue overalls, kick the rich black soil of the farm from his heavy work shoes, and enroll at the best Normal School in the state. H:g immediately reported for football practice and made rapid strides in acquiring' a working knowledge of the game. In his first year at the popular fall sport he played a guard position and showed promise of having exceptional ability as a lineman. In his next season, with a good hunch of football re- cruits to help him, he proceeded to show the conference ex- act’y how the position of tackle should be p’ayed. Me suc- ceeded so wed in the demonstration that he was given a berth on the all-state honor team that year. He was the logical choice for captain of this year’s squad and was unanimously elected by the letter men. Hig played every minute of the season’s schedule and was a stone wall in Peru's first line of defense. His se’ection as an all-state man for two years in success on is proof enough of his remarkable ability as a football p’ayer. K if h t ft fo' t CAPTAIN-ELECT GEORGE WILLY. Quarterback, Second Year All-State Honorable Mention Willy was the logical choice of his team mates for captain of the 11)22 squad. His election to this post of honor and responsibility came as a result of two years of faithful service to the Blue and White. His specialty is line plunging, punting and passing and he ranks with the best men in the conference in these departments of the game. Toppy proved to be a very able general this year in his position at Quarter- back; he was not content to let his backfield men do all the work, so combined his ability at brokenfield running with his excellent generalship and took his turn at pass- ing up the chalk lines. He had a fast pair of feet encased in those cleated shoes and tore off many a good run. He was given honorable mention on the all-state selection th;s year and no doubt will prove to be one of Coach Speer’s most valuable men next fall. DON WILSON, Tackle, Second Year A11-State Honorable Mention Wilson acquired his background for college football at Harvard High School where he was a running mate of the famous Hartley, Cornhusker Captain. Wilson has a knack at open field running that is hard to boat and in many of the games this year he was the sensation of the conference. He was especially valuable at blocking punts and many of the Peruvian scores came as a result of his excellence in this depart- ment of the game. He was given honorable mention on the all-state team for two years in succession. PAUL WILCOX. Halfback, Second Year All-State Honorable Mention Wilcox put in three years of football at Nebraska City before climbing into a Peruvian uniform, and during his two years of the college gridiron sport here he has played a good consistent game. 11 i s best work was done this year at safety where his almost uncanny ability to grab the punts out of the air without fumbling, coupled with his ability to lug the ball back thru the enemy’s terriory ranks him with the best backfield men in the conference. He was placed on the second team in one all- slate selection and given honorable mention on others. ICiffh ti mJi ' ' CARL ROSENQUIST, Center, Second Year All-State Honorable Mention Rosenquist came to Peru with very little football experience, but under the guid- ance of Coach Speer he soon developed into a “whale” of a center. He is fast and shifty and his quick analysis of the opponent’s play often caused that same opponent to lose considerable ground. He was given honorable mention on the all-state team. HARRY PAAP, Guard Second Year All-State Honorable Mention Football was barred in the town that Paap came from so his gridiron experience before coming to Peru was quite incomplete. However it did not take him long to pick up the fundamentals of the game and he soon became a tower of strength in the Blue and White line. He is aggressive and fast and time after time he would break- thru the opposing line and spill plays before they were hardly started. Paap was given honorable mention on the all-state team. ALVA FISHER, End, Second Year On Fisher’s service record is included two years of varsity football. He held down a wing position in a very capable manner and was especially good at breaking up plays directed around his end. He would very often spill two or three of the oppon- ents’ interference and grab the man with the ball before any gain was made. Fisher’s ability to repulse enemy attacks around his position was one of the reasons why Peru stood so high in the state conference. Eighty ni.i 4“ DEAN POMEROY, Guard, Second Year Pomeroy is another “two striper” who has put in two years of faithful service to the Blue and White. He acquired considerable football experience at the School of Agriculture, Lincoln, and, although a little late in arriving upon the scene, soon earned the right to climb into a varsity uniform. His low, blocky build served him well in his guard position and the enemy generals soon learned not to send plays thru Pomeroy’s place in the line. He will probably be back in uniform next year. BURR STAND LEY, End, Second Year Standley is one of the natives of the Peru hills who gathered in quite an under- standing of the gridiron sport by watching Peruvian teams in the olden days perform on the marked-off rectangle. When he was a youngster the only way Burr's mother could keep him away from the football field, when the men were practicing, was to buy him a sack of candy or tell him the little neighbor girl had come over to play with him. Burr played a good share of the season at right end, where his steady, consistent work was a big help to the Peru team. WALTER BUETTGENBACH, Fullback, First Year All-State Honorable Mention Bitze was undoubtedly the “shining light” of the Bobcat team. He was known all around the conference circuit by his mop of flaming red hair and his educated toe. Bitze is another native Peruvian whose football experience was limited to what he could gather by watching the old-timers play. He was evidently, a good observer for he dis- played real ability this year in his first attempt at the gridiron sport. His defensive work was good and he was a powerful line smasher. His punting and drop kicking was a feature of every game. Kiyhl uneven GAYLORD TOFT, Guard, First Year . „ . .. Last year when Toft came out for football he had the misfortune to sprain hw ankle and was forced to give up hopes of taking part in any games that season. This fall, however, he reported in good condition and-man, how he did tear things up. It was no unusual sight to behold Toft gather a few of the opposing line men in one arm and grab the man with the ball in the other arm, anil hough they would kick and squirm they could not free themselves from his clutch. Although only a one year man he showed real football ability. He graduates this year and leaves a hole in the line that will be hard to fill. ALBERT BIEHN, Half Back, First Year Biehn is a little red terror when he is turned loose on the gridiron with a pigskin tucked tightly beneath his arm, and is capable of reeling off a considerable number of yards when the occasion demands. He has a stocky build which combines speed and power and when his signal was called to drive thru the line or skirt the ends the opponents found him a mighty hard man to get oft his feet He was always full of fight and his optimistic encouragement cheered the team on o e ei woi -. FRED ROTHERT, Halfback, First Year Rothert is another Harvard product who upholds in ■ very creditable manner that high school’s reputation of turning out excellent football players Fritz came to , . , , , ,__i „ u«rtVi nn the Blue and White football squad, Peru with his mind made up to land a bertn on tut ,. 1 and his determination and real ability was the means by which he realized his am- bition. He will be back in the Bobcat fold next year and should be one of the best performers in the camp. i K iff It I y-i’ifjlif GLEN FRARY, End, First Year Frary played a year of high school football at Auburn before signing up with Coach Speer’s collection of Bobcats. He was especially good on the receiving end of a forward pass. His ability to grab the oval out of the air and speed away toward the last chalk line of the rectangle accounted for three Peru touchdowns. In spite of the fact that he has considerable weight, Frary was one of the fastest men on the squad. He has another year at Peru and should be one of Speer’s best men next fall. VICTOR ASHLEY, End and Half, First Year Ashley came mighty near making his letter here with the 1915 squad but when the time was checked in for the awards, he lacked just a little of having the re- quired amount. This year he played a good snappy game at end and haif. He was a sure tackier and was good at breaking up interference. “Ash was a hard man to stop when he went galloping down the field with the old “pighlde tucked under his aim. He graduated at the end of the first semester and will be missed in the line-up next year. LEO FAUNCE, Guard, First Year Faunce was a Nebraska City high school gridster before he made the wls? decis- ion to come to Peru and try bobing around with the Bobcats. Thru his hard work and his football ability he landed a place on the squad as a guard. He has considerable weight and holds down a line position in a capable manner. Faunce will be in camp iv :t fall to battle for the Blue and White. Flight y-vinr IFontball i raamt The 1921 football season witnessed the best display of Peruvian talent eve 1 ie- corded in the annals of Peru football history. The Bobcats met defeat three times in the season’s schedule of eight conference games, but the quality of the teams in thi Nebraska circuit this year was far superior to that of any other year Our losses, recorded in conference standings were cut down to two when York forfeited then- game because an ineligible man was played. This put us or. an even oo mg wi ie ton ference champions in the number of games won; but since we p .i t( moic games, t percentage column was against us. , , . . . ,. r In spite of the fact that the Bobcats did not take the state championship in foot- hall fhpv were the highest scoring team in the conference; they played eight confer- ence games, and played strictly first rate teams, while the two title contenders played only four and five conference games and included “ta.l-enders in their schedules; they piled up 117 points to their opponents 35 points; they totaled ( points to their op- ponents’ 10 points in the last two games of the season; they landed in third place m the conference race, and Wesleyan and Wayne played a Post-season game to decide first and second places. Wesleyan defeated Grand Island only 1-0; Wayne defeated Grand Island only 14-0, while Peru defeated Grand Island 27-0; Wesleyan defeated Hastings 14-0, while Peru defeated Hastings o2-7. YORK GAME The Bobcats got away to a bad start when they battled the York Panthers at York for the opening game of the season. The game was fast and hard fought, but resulted in a 16-13 victory for York. , , ., . . Old man jinx invaded the camp, and altho the men made it very plain that he was an unwelcome caller, they were unable to get n o im. In the first half the Peru squad had everything their own way; repeated gains were made thru York’s line and around their ends, while the frequent passes which the Pedagogues completed kept the York squad guessing. In the second half, however, the Bobcats were handicapped by the loss of Willy, who had to be removed because of injuries and, as a result of the necessary shifting in the line-up the York squad gained an advantage the Peruvians were unable to over- tome. .V hnj( tj GRAND ISLAND GAME Grand Island College was the next opponent for the Booeat gridmen, and smart- ing under the defeat at York, the Peruvians tore into the game with the tight and determination which proved disastrous to the Island men. The first half was featured by a punting duel in which the Bobcat booter got the best of bis Zebra opponent. Altho the Bobcats only put across one touchdown in the first half, they tramped on the Grand Island squad for 21 points in the second period. The game ended with Peru topping the heap with a 27-0 score. KEARNEY GAME The Peru Pedagogues defeated the Kearney Antelopes in a hard fought game on the Kearney gridiron. The game was a battle royal thruout, furnishing quite a con- trast to the 11)20 Peru-Kearney encounter, when Peru walked off with the long end of the J03-0 score. Kearney must be given credit for displaying lots of fight and staging a comeback from last season's defeat sufficient to hold the Pedagogues to a 3-0 score. As the final count indicates, the two teachers college teams were very evenly matched and both teams put every ounce of fight into the game they could muster because of the keen rivalry between the two institution which they represented. In the last quarter of the game Bitzie booted a place kick over the bar for the only tally of the contest. Peruvians always consider the season a success if the team beats Kea rney. MIDLAND GAME Coach Sisty’s Midland Lutherans came here determined to take the Pedagogues down a notch but they reckoned without their host. During the first half no scores were made by either team but the Bobcats had a little the best of the encounter. In the last half the Bobcats clawed their way thru the tigers for two touchdowns, thus putting the game in storage labelled “victory”. DOANE GAME Anyway they couldn’t make a touchdown! Doane and Peru played a hard fought game of football on the Doane College grid- iron at Crete Friday, November 4. Doane came out of the game with a 3 point lead and can consider themselves very fortunate in annexing such a victory. The game was anybody’s up to the whistle, but the drop kick booted over by Buck, Doane fullback, in the last quarter, made the final tally Doane 3, Peru 0. -s X ‘mety one 3 Just among ouiselves Peru had the best team, The Bobcats out-fought the tigers, jufei among uu , However Lady Luck smiled upon the Con- and made more yardage and fhst do .. ‘ t thcnl in drop kick forma- gregationalists, tilted their horseshoe at the j' ht d £ ’ the goal posts.

The Peruvians smashed thru the Bulldog line for two touch downs in the opening period, cut loose for another in the third and one in the fourth when Frary snared a pass and ran 40 yards for a touch down. Willy, pilot of the Peruvian crew, was a star of the visiting team, elose'y seconded by the husky Buettgenbach. Wilcox, playing his last game for the Peru team at right halfback, returned Cotner pur.ts for long distances and nabbed the aerials with a vise- like clutch. The Bulldog offense was not nearly so perfect as that of the Peru team, lacking the punch the visitors put into their work. Ability to pick holes in the Blue enabled the Bobcats to push the pigskin across the field by line-plunging. Few end runs were attempted, while aerial attacks by both sides was imperfect.

Kolh«-rt GAYLORD TOFT, Captain Guard, Second Year; All-State 1922 Championship honors would have been impos- sible for Peini this year without Captain Toft at the stationary guard position, fighting as tho his life depended upon it, and fighting every minute of eveiy game in which he played. It was due to his wonderful ability as a guard that no con- ference team was able to score more than eighteen points in any game against the Peruvian quintet. Toft was recognized by all the sport writers of the state to be the best guard in tbe conference, and was consequently placed on every all-state selection published. - FRED ROTHERT, Captain-Elect, Forward, First Year Honorable Mention, 1922 Eothert won a place for himself on the Bobcat team because of his wonderful abil- ity as a forward. Although this was his first year in College basketball he fitted into the team work of the victorious combination in fine shape and deserves a large share of credit for the all-victorious season. “Fritz” was elected captain of the 1923 team, and is planning another championship year. CARL ROSENQUIST, Center, Third Year All-State, 1922 “Rosy” has put in three years of faithful, effective service for the Blue and White. When he enrolled at Peru he had a dream of playing on a championship team, and each year of service brought the realization of the dream closer and closer, until this year it became a reality. Rosy has a valuable habit of dropping the leather through the net with a surpris:ng regularity, this, together with the fact that he was a good floor man made him indispensab’e to the team. WALTER BEUTTGENBACH, Guard, Second Year Buettgenbach made his letter here two years ago, and after a year in the Navy, where he was capta:n of a service team, returned to help Old Peru take the Ne- braska Championship. Bitzie is good both as an offensive and a defensive man and, adding to his list of qualifications the fact that he is red-headed, has proven to be a player of exceptional ability. .Y inct if-sc re n PAUL WILCOX, Guard, Second Year Honorable Mention, 1921 Wilcox is another two year man who has been a star in athletics both years while at Peru. This year he was handicapped by an injury to his knee which kept him out of some of the games. He did his best work this year in the Midland game when, by caging a spectacular shot he started the rally which won this game for Peru. Every- one regrets that this is “BaldyV last year with us. GLEN FRARY, Forward, First Year Honorable Mention, 1922 Frary is another one year man who helped put Peru on the athletic map of the state. He hails from Auburn, where he played on the class “A” high school team. fb He has remarkable ability at caging the leather from the floor, and combines speed with headwork in his playing. He is a hard man to guard, and is a dangerous shot when he is in range of the basket. JAMES SIMON, Forward, First Year Simons is a one year man who has proved that he can go into the game when called upon, and not weaken the machine one particle. He is speedy, and aggressive; he handle either foiward or a guard position in a capable manner. He established a reputation and cinched a position on the squad in the first two games of the season when two of the o’d-timers were unable to play. •• uivt if-e igh t Haskrthall ALL-VICTORIOUS The year 1922 will long be remembered by Peruvians because of the championship honors which the Bobcats annexed for the glory of the old school. The conference was composed of unusually strong basketball quintets, and the race for title honors was close and fiercely contested. Peru was haid pressed thruout the season by teams only a few notches down the percentage ladder, but it is all the more to the Bobcat’s credit to win a championship with' rivalry so keen and the c'ass of basketball the best ever displayed in the Nebraska conference. It has been a number of years since any col- lege in the circuit has taken the title with a clear record, and the Peru list of eleven conference victories and three out-of-conference wins without a single loss is quite an enviable accomplishment. TABOR 9—PERU 2G Tabor college was the first team to meet defeat at the hands of the Peruvian cagesters. The Tabor quintet found the pace set by the Bobcats to be too fast for them, so the coach called off the first string men and ran in the “Pony” team. KEARNEY 15—PERU 18 The rumor that the Kearney Teachers had recruited some promising basketball material from the high school stars in their territory was not a false one, and the Bobcats were confronted by a powerful squad of clever basketball players when they met the Kearney Antelopes in a fierce encounter on the Kearney floor. The game started with Kearney caging the first basket and the Peruvians in hot pursuit. Th first half ended with Kearney one point in the lead. It was not long- before Peru assumed the responsibility of leadership and maintained the position thru- out the rest of the game. At no time, however, was there a safe margin of points, and the team felt relieved and happy when the timer blew his whistle. Peru is always proud to win from the Kearney Teachers because of the strong rivalry between the two schools. Coach Speer’s men have never been defeated by Kearney in the three years that he has been coaching Peru athletic teams. DOANE 12—PERU 23 Johnson, the lanky Tiger center, was the main noise for Doane, un’ess it was the crowd shouting vain protests at Speer’s men for playing keep-away. Johnson was the man who registered a1! of the Doane scores, with the exception of one basket tossed by Higginbotham After Peru had gained quite a lead the Tigers began shoot- ing from way past the middle of the floor in a vain effort to overcome the Peru margin, when the final whistle blew announcing to the world that Peru had beaten the team which had taken the conference championship for four years in succession. It was beyond our wildest dreams to nearly doub’e the score on the ex-champs, but you never can tell what impossible things a Bobcat team will accomplish when they are turned loose to hunt their feed. Peru defeated Doane by as many points as Doane has been defeated by all other teams combined in the last four years. MIDLAND 1,3—PERU 19 The Midland Tigers invaded Bobcat- nd with that lean, hungry look wlvch always forecasts a hard old scrap. The athletic contests between Midland and Peru have always been hard fought and close, but Peru has managed to nose out the Fremont men nine times out of ten contests. A battle royal is always assured, however, when the two teams are scheduled to clash, and as the score indicates, the game was a lively encounter. The team work, passing, and guarding of both teams was nearly perfect. Time after time the center and foiwards would bring the ball down near the basket only to be stopped by the guards. Captain Toft and Buttgenbueh, in their guard positions, performed so effectively that Midland was unable to register a single field during the first half, while Rothert and Fvarv were ab’e to evade their guards and drop the ball thru the net four times. The first half ended with the score standing 12 to 5 in Peru’s favor. Ninety-nine Basketball Midland had talked the situation over between thu halves and appointed their center to act as a committee of one to do the scoring. He was responsible for tin three Mid and fie’d goals caged during the last half. TABOR 22—PKRU Xi As a side issue to the Midland trip the Bobcats took on the Tabor, Iowa. Panthers. Contrary to expectations the Tabor team was not an easy one to take into camp, and Coach Speer was forced to use his first team to turn the trick. The Tabor crew was re-enforced by the confidence of the home boosters and a home official and consequently put up quite a scrap. MIDLAND 17— PKRU IK The Peru quintet defeated Midland College basketeers at Fremont in one of the best games staged in conference circles this year. The Lutherans started the fire- works early in the first half by dropping in a free throw for a single tally. Buettgen- bach retaliated by dropping in a pretty toss from the center of the floor for a count of two. The Fremont men came back with two more fie’d goals wh'ch gave them the edge on the scoring. The first half ended with MicPand leading. 11 to 7. Early in the second ha'f Wilcox was sent into the Peru lineup and soon caged a long shot from the floor which started a rally for the teachers. Rothert and Rosenquist followed u.r in enmo nrettv shots which gave Peru a lead the Lutherans were never a by roping in some pretty to overcome bit KEARNEY 17—PERU 21 The Peru Case artists encountered a formidable foe when they tangled with the K Stie p™ f TOC-mjnirly «1.1,. 2Vo wi The defensive work of the Peru guards was a source of pleasure to for a sa e | Vnanv a relieved sigh came floating out over the floor as Bitzie or the spectators far-reaching arms and grab the inflated leather from its path Toft would stretch [- lin towa.d the Peru not.

A few more sLonds of frantie work and the timer's wh-'stle stopped one of the best games ever staged on the local floor. SYRACUSE 14- PERU 34 T.„ Kvracuse game was scheduled for a rractwe game before the completion of Schedule The game was interesting and well played in spite of the rh%T rthe outcome was never in doubt. The Syracuse team had won from some good teamshin the early part of the:r season, including Wesleyan, hut the Bobcats wore too much for them. DOANE 18—PERU 27 rw cf the most decisive games of the conference was staged when the Peru cage met the quintet from Dofne College and defeated them by a 27 to IK count. Tho Do'ino Tigers lived up to their name and reputation and battled desperate1}’ .

The victory was of a decisive nature. Coming from behind a four-point advantage which the Bulldogs had gathered in the first ten minutes of play the Pedagogues closed the first half with a 10 to 8 lead, and turned loose a scoring spurt in the second period which topped the Cotner total by sixteen points. In winning from Cotner, the Peru five uncorked one of the best displays of basket ball exhibited on the Bethany court this season. The rangy Peruvians presented a stiong offensive and defensive combination. The defense of the Pedagogues is shown in the fact that Cotner was held to four field baskets, all of which were of the long aricty. The bulldogs were held to a lone field goal during the final period. The Peru offens.ve did not get under full steam until the final period, when they caged six baskets from the floor. YORK 13- PERU 39 The Feiu cage men annexed another conference victory by defeating the York College quintet in a lilt less game. The first ten minutes of play was decidedly ragged and was marked by the inability of either team to s ip the inflated leather thru the iron hoop. Time after time the Bobcats worked the ball down under the basket only to have the shot roll around the ring and then hop out. It was not until the second half that the Cats hit their stride and started to roll the leather thru the net. COTNER 18—PERU 38 Cotner put up a scrappy game when they appeared for the last battle of the sea- son, in spite of the fact that they faced the recognized champions of Nebraska. The lopsided score docs not indicate the real quality of the game, for it was not until the last of the second half that the Bobcats took a spurt and put the game away on the victory column.

The Olympic Club fills the need of such an organization in the Peru Teachers C liege. Our club is composed of live members who believe in the principles that physical health, as well as mental health is essential to general well-being, it has, however, in this, its second year, had many difficulties to meet. The use of the high school gymnasium was limited to every other Saturday, but this did not prevent other activities. Numerous hikes have been a source of great pleasure to all who took them. Club members have also had the privilege of practicing basketball with the high school girls a number of times. During the first semester, the club was organized under the leader- ship of Edna Fisher, who could well be called the star athlete of Peru. Pajarita Atkisson served as president the second semester. Her enthus- iasm and athletic ability shown during the first part of the year carried the club thru a semester’s fun and sport. Miss Williams, our capable sponsor, worked out a plan by which a girl could earn a letter and a sweater for athletic work done. A point system, adopted by the club, provides that points can be secured by hik- ing, by playing basketball and tennis, and by partaking in track. It is the wish of the club that next year many girls will possess sweaters thus showing that the dub is active. ( • htfmhfd One hundred five (Girls' Atliktirs The college girls’ Olympic Club first organized in 1920, has furnished the greater part of women’s athletic activities this year. Hikes along country roads and games in the gymnasium have brightened many a Sat- urday afternoon, and the interest and enthusiasm of the members proves that the Olympic Club will long remain an institution of our college. The regular physical training classes have been under the direction of Miss Ruth Williams. Though gymnasium facilities have been limited this year the registration in all the classes has been large and the work along corrective and recreational lines has been thoroly enjoyable. Aesthetic dancing, directed by Alice Glasgow, has given much pleas- „ ure to those who would fain win beauty and grace; and has furnished various delightful exhibition numbers during the yearly entertainments and May day exercises. Of course the real athletic event of the season was the Freshman- Sophomore Girls’ basketball game. The teams were well matched and both sides displayed real team work. But clever goal shooting during the first half established a lead which the Freshmen were unable to overcome and the whistle blew on a 19-14 score, with the Sophomore class holding the honors.

A special feature of the year’s work war, the Study Circle which met every Wednesday night for nine weeks. This class studied practical hints in choosing and in staging plays with high school amateurs particularly in mind. This helpful study was accompanied by actual expe- rience, for each one-act play was directed and each character was made up by students. At Christmas time the Study Circle rresented as an out-door pantomine the story of the birth of the Christ-child. Under the guidance of Miss Ruth M. Williams, a graduate of Northwestern Uni- versity, the club with its full quota of sixty active members produced the following plays, the work of standard authors: “The Brink of SPence,” “Suppressed Desires ’ “The Honorable Togo ’ “Ten P. M. ' “Fourteen,” “The Will.” “A Fan and Two Candle- sticks ’ “The Young Wonder,” “Uncle Jimmy,” “A Tune of a Tune,” “The Feast of the Holy Innocents ’ and “On the Pier”. The plays for February, “Overtones” by Alice Gersteinberg, and “In Hospital” by Thomas Dickinson were presented at an open session. A silver offering was taken to increase Peru’s share in the Student Friendship Relief hund . The club owes much to its advisor, Miss Williams, who was an ever willing helper in the activities of the club. ()n hundred t eel re (Clamirr Booth Tarkington’s play, “Clarence” is a real American comedy. The characters are American; the action and plot have Yankee motives; the lines are all in the American language. It is as American as “Huckle- berry Finn” or pumpkin pie. As a comedy with real meaty thought and with no lapses into farce, “Clarence” qualifies exactly. The action throughout is refined, subtle and above all natural. Those marvelous young people, Cora and Bobby Wheeler, are portrait sketches that appeal to every one but the originals. Their truth is lost on the “Flapper” and the “prep” school youth, but to their parents and guardians, to all, indeed, who have emerged from the serious, self-ccnscious period of adolescence, they are an enduring joy. Laughs for the audience are frequent; in fact the play is made to lure i he laughter of its audience.

Because of a misunderstanding and a sacrifice on the part of Neil Sumner, his wife, Ruth Sumner, left him and taking the child Cynthia went to Europe There she remained until Cynthia grew to be a beau- tiful girl of sixteen. Neil Sumner grew tired of his lonely existence and lived a life of rather a questionable nature and surrounded himself with unworthy friends. Because Cynthia wished to know her father Ruth was compelled to return from Europe and to allow Cynthia to stay with her father for a time. Neil’s sister, Betsy Sumner, helped him care for Cynthia and incidentally helped him to get rid of his disreputable acquaintances and to try to pick up the threads of his life where he had dropped them some twelve or fourteen years bfore. Ruth Sumner, however remained estranged until their lawyer, Edward Fellows, and Betsy cleared up the old misunderstanding.

This has been a year of united effort and inspiration to our associa- tion. What we could do, what we dreamed we could do, we undertook, and these things were accomplished. One of the most interesting features of this year has been the number of entertaining talks we have had at some of our Wednesday evening meet- ings. We want to express deep appreciation to our friends of the faculty and the town who so hospitably consented to address us. The Y. M. C. A., together with the Y. W. C. A., was very successful in the drive for money to be sent to the needy students of Europe. Besides this more serious side of the work, we have met together in the spirit of fellowship and good will for a few hours of merry-making. The Y men recommended and conducted the father-son banquet, an annual affair for the fathers, sons and college men of Peru. At the opening of the new Y den a stag feed was held in which every man took part, even in the prize fights and hot hand. But more than all these religious gatherings and good times, we have enjoyed the friendship and mutual spirit of helpfulness and sympathy that has existed among the men in this school. nr hundred ei h teen (Holing (Eatltoltr AsBoriattnu Throughout the entire year the College Catholic Association has en- joyed the privilege of hearing mass every second week at the home of Mrs. Jack. Meetings have been held every Sunday morning at 11:00 o'clock in an especially fitted room. Before the graduation of Miss Helen Dworak, our president, and Miss Nellie O’Connor an informal social affair was held at the home of Mrs. Jack. It was indeed a pleasure to all and served to establish a closer bond of friendship. The club appreciates the kindness of their friend, Mrs. Jack, also the effort and interest of our able advisor, Miss Laughlin. Officers for the current year were as follows: President, Helen l worak; Vice-President, Irma Casey; Secretary and Treasurer, Gertrude Carver; Pedagogian Reporter, Lucille Buscher. It is our sincere wish that this organization be continued and that its future members may derive as much benefit and inspiration from these meetings as the Catholics of 1921-22.

A noticeable spirit of helpful- ness and enthusiasm has always been a Philo characteristic. This has kept the society the leading one in school since its inception many years ago. It has the honor of being the oldest and most vital literary organ- ization in the Teachers College. Miss Williams, oui adviser, has been a source of inspiration. Her willingness to help, no matter how fully her time has been occupied other- w ise, has had its benefit in making each one anxious to prove equal to his or her appointed task.

Brokop EVERETT LITERARY SOCIETY The Everett Liteiaiy Society is fortunate in its name. Edward Everett, whose name is perpetuated by this society, is foremost among American scholais and orators, ctnd his works sho v the true liteiary spirit. The society was organized in 18' 2. Its first aim was to reciprocate the honor which was conferred on it with the name, Everett, and this aim remains paramount. Honor is paid this worthy literary master in ho!d- mg the society up to his ideals, and striving to obtain the greatest cultural training for its individual members. And the end and aim of ail true education is to fit the individual for social serv- ice. This service can be rendered best by the individual who has a development broader than that which books and the classroom alone can give. In a literary society, there is opportunity for the development of those qualities which make for a larger success in coping with modern conditions leadership and speaking in public. Both are requisite to success in any line of work, and to a marked degree necessary in the teaching profession. Everett truly has made much progress in this line. One of the things of which the society is most proud, and which has been most enjoyed, is the Everett Orchestra, composed of ten pieces. That this orchestra plays only music of the highest class, is worthy of note. While greatest effort has been directed along educational lines, the social phase which has a very significant part in cultural training, has not been neglected. One of the most enjoyable features of the society has been its pleasant social events which have meant so much to each member. Success in making Everett a live and progressive society, and in placing it on t sound literary basis is in no small measure due to the efforts of the advisers. One hundred thirfy-three r Kolly.

Sp; rks. ’:ir r (0ur tuiunit (Eounril About a month after school opened, the student body saw the need and desirability of having some student organization. The idea being ap- proved by President Caviness and faculty members, and endorsed by all classes, a representative committee met daily to work out details of or- ganization. On Monday, October 17, a proposed constitution for a Student Coun- cil was submitted to and accepted by the student body as a working basis. According to this Constitution, on the following Friday thirty candidates for the council were nominated, each student voting for ten persons. Two weeks later, written and signed ballots were cast, each student voting from the list of nominees for fifteen people. This election of fifteen student council members was followed by an organization within the council. Elmer Wilson and Gertrude Carver served respectively as chairman and secretary. To the Council we owe thanks for planning the second semester mixer, and the basketball rallies and receptions. We, as a student body, are pround that the Student Council exists on our campus and appreciate the efforts of that body in working for a Greater and Getter Peru.

Since that first day the Club has meant a great deal to each girl. Our first party was given in September, our special guests being ihe girls of the high school. At our next party in November we entertained the “Men’s Club” of the college. In February the Costume Party was a very merry occasion, and, although the boys were not invited this time, there were a number of effeminate boys” present who seemed to have as good a time as the girls. On February 17, 1922, we celebrated the anniversary of the Girls’ Club third birthday, the 18th being on Saturday. All club members were decorated with gold and black ribbons, thus carrying out the colors of the club. A very fine program was given in the chapel at the regular hour and all girls took part, in making the songs and yells livelier and peppier than ever. The Student Loan Fund instituted by the second year’s Girls’ Club has been a real help to several college girls. It is constantly being en- larged by donations from Alumni members, but this year’s club will greatly swell its principal by a large gift at the end of the school year. The afternoon teas have been a decided success this year and are eagerly looked forward to by the students and faculty members of the various departments . These informal teas given each month have helped us to become better acquainted with one another. But behind the frolics, behind the parties and the dainty teas, has been the constant steady work of the Council, Miss Robinson, and our president, Leona Sparks. The tireless effort of these folks has made every- thing the club has undertaken a success, and we of the club wish to ex- press our sincere appreciation for the help given so generously and heartily by them in making the third year of the Girls’ Club one long to be re- membered.

For the last few years, the girls have had an organization known as The Girls’ Club which has been a power for good in the school. The Men’s Club is composed wholly of college men and is a club organization in the fullest meaning of that word. The club has been a success from the beginning. The luncheons and talks from business men of Lincoln have been rare treats for the club members. Upon organization of the club, the following constitution was adopted: ARTICLE r—NAME The name of this organization shall be ‘‘The Peru College Men’s Club.” ARTICLE II—OBJECT The object shall be to further in every way the social unity among the men of the college, to promote good fellowship, to increase a sense of responsibility toward maintaining and upholding the good name of the college.

One hundred fifly-ttir, THE PERUVIAN OF 192 2 f , . ■ htnuhed fifty-srvrn S0CI6TT (Our (Elams The Junior class of 1921 was the best in the school; no Sophomore of 1922 denies it. Have you noticed the superior quality of the Sopho- mores this year? You see we were Juniors last year and not Freshmen. Our social activities this year have been a pleasing sequel to those of last year, which we here review. The first Junior event was a picnic. Our guides led us out thru a dark- winding road up over the brow of a hill where the sight of four beautiful bonfires gleaming beneath the trees greeted us. The whole affair was a regular pep meeting from the time we fell in for the first game, until we toasted the last marshmallow over the dying embers. .Just before going home we gathered around the fire and told jokes and gruesome ghost stones. Ihe night of revelry was brought to a close with songs and yells as we wended our homeward way. Do any of you remember hearing about our first Junior party7 That was the time when we had such a merry scramble for coats and caps. Of all the exciting games, the auto races beat them all Why Barney Old- field would be green with envy had he seen them! We recommend eating apples and doughnuts after attending auto races. Before long another picnic was planned, but thru some misunderstand- ing it rained. Numerous oil stoves and chafing dishes found their way into the gymnasium, and the picnic progressed in a very lively manner. How the bacon sizzled! We discovered that bacon and eggs are ideal for indoor picnics. The Junior-Senior Banquet was the biggest event of the year. Per- sistent planning and working always bring results. On this occasion the gymnasium was transformed into a starlit garden: a blue sky twinkling with stars; a white trellis with large white pillars at intervals’ huge has” kets of yellow chrysanthemums on the top of each pillar - (n-eat’mounds of fern on the garden walls. The topic for toasts was “Plav the p.,me” Who were the Sophomores last year? Juniors! ’ v,ame ’ vv All Junior activities came to a happy climax when the Junior eirls won the basketball championship. No class could ask for anvthino- hetter with which to complete a year’s record. Thus you see our career is Jun- iors was ended, and one as Sophomores begun. C - An tEur nf IDrlrnutr Knowing that the social life of each new school year must hove o qtn-t Y. W C. A., Y. M. C A., and C. C A. with the hearW coSpemtion of the faculty provided a place, time, and occasion for a jolly get-acquainted TT11 X Up, In no time by means of a few slips of paper formed. Old friends and new friends were grouped layers, Carpenters, Masons and Teachers. Our hosts and hostesses knowing that genial companionship accom- panies the partaking of food provided ice and cake. We just kept on get- ting happier as the evening progressed so that when the “wink” hinted of leaving every one was too happy to regret the close, and sufficiently happy to forget about loneliness, strangness, or homesickness. Labor Unions were off as Bakers. Brick- One hundred fif t -ei h uylinmurr -X'laht Every loyal Sophomore wanted to come to this, the first class party, and after each one had been in the picture gallery where fellow classmen in various guises could be seen, everybody wanted to stay. The fun-loving spirit of this peppy class pervaded the entire gym- nasium and building and even saturated the surrounding air outside. A few night prowlers prowling around the building caught a little of it and later surrounded Landolts’ store where the bricks (ice cream) were stored. The Sophomore standing reserve of Spartan-like warriors and of dauntless Amazons, bricks under arm, safely elbowed its way thru hostile lines. The hard-fought battles of Yale and Harvard in athletics, dramatics, debating and scholarship put an edge to our pep and a feather in the cap of the entertainment committee which had maneuvered to crowd a college year’s activities into one evening. The lights, forgetting to blink a warning, went out; consequently the merry-makers groped their way out, happily anticipating the next class event. Jfmtlluill limu]urtii The sixteen letter men of the 1921 squad, who piled glory upon them- selves and the old school throughout the football season, were twice blessed How eagerly the ‘gang’ gathered at the home of Coach Speer! You see ev- ery fellow had heard about Mrs. Speer’s culinary skill. There seemed no end of good things to eat and as course followed course, belts grew tighter and vests were found to fit more snugly. (In fact, when Toft complained that some ne was throwing stones at him, it was discovered that the buttons, which had been straining at their moorings on Higgin’s vest, had suddenly released them- selves and flown across the table to antagonize the left guard.) Coach Speer who acted as toast-master, made a few introductory remarks in a humorous vein and handed out a plentiful supply of “slams”, which furnished some hearty laughs at the expense of the ones who were hit. He also declared that he was mighty thankful for having such a good squad of men to work with and such a loyal student body to support the team. After an elapse of just one week, the same squad assembled in the dining hall of the dormitory for a second banquet. Mr. Linn certainly included everything in the menu that a football player could desire. Only adjectives of the superlative degree can describe the feast. The table was with banquets. t One hundred fifty-nine decorated with yellow and pink cut “mums , and in the center of the table was a small football boy who also wore a letter sweater. After the banquet, Carl Rosenquist acted as toastmaster, and here once more a few of the many stories were told and enjoyed by all. It has been rumored that these banquets have helped a few fellows decide to return next year. (Sirin’ (Club Entertain Because the time was the Saturday after Thanksgiving and after a glorious football victory, and because the hostesses were the Girls ’ Club this party was an unusual success.

The evening was perfect and a light snow added the real Christmas touch to the beautiful surroundings. The chapel formed a fitting background for the brilliant decorations of the tree and the artistic light- ing effect used in present- ing the living pictures. The chorus, led by a male quartet, was massed in front of the building while the scenes of the story were given on the steps of the east entrance. “O Little Town of Bethle- hem” was sung as a pre- lude, followed by the carols, “It Came Upon a Midnight Clear,” and “Hark! the Herald Angels Sing.” During the singing of these songs the story was slowly unfolded by the characters used to present it. High above, the Star of Bethlehem appeared and the Shepherds came into sight. They were followed by the Angels, almost too beautiful to be of earth, and then came the Wise Men bearing their gifts. As the first notes of “Holy Night” came sweet and clear upon the evening air, the doors slowly opened and there came into view a glorified copy of Botticelli’s famous picture of the Nativity. The light radiating from the child illumined the face of Mary bending over the manger, full of rapture over the divine gift that had been bestowed upon her, while around her were grouped the Shepherds and Wise Men in an attitude of adoration. The music ceased, the doors closed, the Christmas celebration of 1921 bcame a memory. The program was characterized by a sweet reverence and nothing occurred to mar the solemnity of the occasion. Uihr Ulih-llrar fflixrr So many new students came in the second semester that a mixer was imperative. On Saturday night, the 4th of February, practically every member of the college met at the Training Building for the purpose of making new friends. After a unique entertainment in the assembly room we divided into four groups and went to the room designated by the color of the heart we wore, and there the merry-making doubled, and trebled and quadrupled; yea, it had almost reached the boiling point when we were invited to the gymnasium where the lid came off and the merriment boiled over in the Virginia Reel. Meat sandwiches, pickles, and cocoa were then served and we hesi- tatingly departed for home feeling that it was indeed, a most successful, mixy mixer. One hundred sixty-one } (Club fcutrrtaimurut The P Club kept up its name for being a live-wire organization by giving a party on October 29 which went down in history as one of those affairs which is never forgotten. Every man out for football was invited. The requirement for getting in that evening was to bring a girl. Strange to say, few of Coach Speer’s candidates stayed at home. The revelry- continued until the lights went out, after which was heard the oft repeated cry, “Where’s my girl?” Soon after our all-victorious basketball season began, the I Club gave another very successful party for the benefit of all men out for basketball. The men invited followed the precedent established at our first party and appeared with their lady friends. At the close of the basketball season, the new letter men of 1922 were initiated into the P Club. Blind boxing and paddlings are memories of the evening. The next entertainment was the freshmen and Sophomore basketball games, with wrestling and boxing matches in the intermission. At this writing we have an entertainment well under way which will be given in the chapel. The girls’ dancing class, a Dramatic Club play, tumbling by a physical training class, and other numbers by college talent are features of this entertainment which we are planning to make the best ever. II. HI. (T. A. Smrial Artiuitirw Too often Y. W. C. A. girls are thought to plan no social activities. A survey of our social life for this year absolutely contradicts such a notion. The birthday anniversary of the Association on October 19 was the occasion for the first party. The early part of the evening was devoted to a program, consisting of musical numbers, readings, and solo dances. We were indeed fortunate to have Mrs. Neal, first president of the Y. W. Association in Peru, relate to us how the organization was formed. The presence of Miss Tunell, our field secretary, helped much in making the party a memorable one. In November, the Y. W. C. A. entertained fifty guests at an autumn luncheon. A two-course luncheon was deftly served and thoroughly en- joyed. Miss Faulhaber who acted as toast-mistress likened the Y. W. C. A. to a ship. Then, toasts on the pilot, the captain, the crew .the life savers, the anchor, and the voyage followed. Much zest and enthusiasm for the future voyages of the Y. W. ship were exhibited in songs and yells. The time of one Saturday afternoon turned backward for two pleas- ant hours and the Y. W. C. A. members met as children in the high school gymnasium. Ring-around-the-rosy, drop the handkerchief, and cat and mouse were popular games. There was much rivalry for the partnership of those who came dressed as boys. On the last Saturday in January, a trip around the world in the Y. W. ship was secured at excursion rates. The travelers first stopped midst the shamrocks on the Emerald Isle; then, they paused to see the latest styles of Paris (a real style show from Nebraska City). The dancers from Spain furnished delightful entertainment. To visit Japan and to On hinulr (I i'eel the thrill of adventure of an Eskimo hunt were enjoyable privileges. After each one had stopped at a cafe in the United States, the voyage was ended. Thus you see we, Y. W. girls, devote a part of our time and energy to fun and frolic. itU'tt’n (Cluh Uuurhrutm Though a new organization, the Men’s Club had a pleasant, profitable year. Three events stand out, particularly. Dean Delzell’s idea of starting the year with a big feed and “get-to- gether” was certainly a happy one. President Caviness, Mrs. Caviness, Mrs. Waugh, Miss Robinson, and Mr. Speer were the guests of the eve- ning. The feed was prepared by Mr. Linn in such fine style that nothing else in the way of food could be desired. Special talks from the guests were thoroughly enjoyed. About five weeks later, President Caviness planned a noon luncheon for the club. The first of a series of addresses delivered by different mem- bers of the Lincoln Rotary Club was given by Mr. Frank Tomson. He gave the teachers an idea of teaching from a business man’s point of view. As to qualities which bring success, the speaker stated that it was neces- sary for one to be honest, courageous, and to be willing to render service. He illustrated his point by giving the Rotary motto: “He profits most, who serves.” At the second luncheon, the men had the pleasure of listening to Mr. Verne Hedge, president of the Lincoln Rotary Club. He gave them an idea of the Rotary Club and explained how the members are chosen, only one member being selected from each occupation. Mr. Hedge is an ab- stractor of titles and told in a very interesting way how the abstract of title was made out for a certain piece of land. The Men’s Club has thoroughly enjoyed the talks of the Lincoln Ro- tarians. In fact, the men of the school will always swear by the Rotary Club of Lincoln and heai'tily accord in giving rousing cheers for that or- ganization. fHt. Urrunit Jffutt Mt. Vernon Hall has been the scene for many of the happiest gath- erings that have been held in Peru. At the first of the year, we decided to have each month some kind of entertainment. For September, a get-acquainted party was imperative. Our spacious lawn suggested a place where we could play all sorts of games. But being hostesses, we needed guests; consequently, the boys who board at the hall were invited, for we did want to get acquainted. We know a Hallowe’en party in October is not unusual, but ours certainly was not any ordinary Hallowe’en party. Even the rain could not stop our fun. Since Midland had come down for a little fight with our football squad, we were glad to make them welcome and to let them share our apples, doughnuts, pumpkin pie, and coffee. Thanksgiving Day furnished the occasion for a November party. All the boys were our guests. Our hall seemed a little bit small when so One hundred sixty-three ) • ii uiy gathered in it, but lovely “food” helps much in furnishing content and we were excited about Christmas and about going home, nor pm her party was not slighted. Each one’s heart overflowed with Christmas joy as she danced around the Christmas tree which, beautifully MW, inn ted held its place in the middle of the parlor. Isabel presented Air' Waugh with a bread tray from the girls, and .Mrs. Waugh in turn resented the Hall with a record. “Silent Night,” sung by Schuman-Heink. P1 h jjle january dance is said by the girls to be the liveliest one of the year Just back from vacation and laden with Christmas presents, we couhp nUary party followed a basketball game with Duane. Roth teams were invited, but much to our regret the visiting team needed rest t’ r its next night’s game and could not accept. Mr. Jisa and Mr. Yerkes lelichtfully entertained us with their music. Delicious refreshments were served and thus a happy time was brought to a close. March was too busy a month I or a party, but some good times are I- nned for April and May. Our parties have furnished us so much fun ,e recommend any group of girls to organize and plan nights of fun. ttta To our house mother, Mrs. Waugh, we owe a great deal. A home-like ■ t pervades our hall; we are just one big family of' girls. tkmlu’t iBcutfl’ Hmuiurtrfi , ten men received invitations to attend a banquet at the home of Sreer smiles that had been worn for three days, because Peru had Coacri . P • ’ championship in basketball, widened into immense grins, ww did the “gang” grin ? Well, two words will explain: good eats. Wh'V At the specified time the basketeers wearing adjustable belts and i concealed guilty appetites were welcomed by the Coach sweateis i,is best suit and his All-State-Championship-Rasketball WnO W3.S tdi hjk Smilo„ entering the dining room, they discovered standing there two tables heaped with candy, good eats of all kinds, and beautiful sweet peas and roses There were manv changes in the appearance ol the tables alter Coach had blown the whistle for the game to start, for his men were well- trained. Course after course came and went. One hnndmd xi.rt it-font Having done thorough justice to the eats”, the college champs lis- tened to a talk by Coach Speer. He explained how it had been possible for Peru to have a winning team composed of all stars. He also ex- pressed his appreciation of the way in which the student body, faculty, and men cooperated. The Coach’s prophecy, as he sees each member of the squad twenty years hence, was very interesting. Each man has a bright future, especially Bitzy and his family of four. At a very late hour and after each guest had expressed his appre- ciation for the wonderful feed to Mr. and Mrs. Speer, the champs went home declaring that they would be on the hard-surfaced lloor next year if there was any chance for another feed. 0.hr uJraiimuj g'rhuul Partu The Saturday evening before vacation, all the practice teachers cast aside their pedagogical cares and fared merrily forth to the training school to be entertained by the training school faculty. At the door, players’ complimentary tickets to the Orpheum theatre were issued. Being amateur night, however, all of us were asked to con- tribute to the evening’s entertainment. The amateurs were divided into live troups or companies. Fortunately, a half hour was allotted to each group to do a little necessary practicing. There was a very strong incen- tive to practice zealously because an angelfood cake was to be awarded as the prize for the best show. At the sound of the bell, all the troups filed into the theatre, which, to be exact, was the assembly room in disguise. The amateur stunts were varied in nature and evidently planned with the idea of provoking laughter. The Peruna Players produced some “Well-Shaken Shakespeare.” The Featuring Beauty Chorus staged an almost tragic, but happy-ending operetta, called Wooed, Won and Wed.” The Maggie-Jiggs aggregation carried off the cake with the production, “The Bringing Down of Father”. We can hardly blame the judges for giving in to Maggie’s awe-inspiring rolling pin. “Spring’s Awakening,” an interpretative dance produced by the Fairy Fantasy Group was some- thing quite different from Jiggs’ troubles. “Topics of the Day” as fea- tured by the Future Film Service were novel and highly interesting. The evening’s performance, however, was not altogether amateurish. The selection by the Cosmopolitan Mixed Quartette gave evidence of real talent. In fact, the quartette took the audience by storm and had to respond with two encores. The presentation of a peppy skit, entitled “In 1999,” by “Charles Green Co.”, was truly professional. This force- ful bit of drama revealed to us the change in domestic policies in 1999 when “The Man” shall be removed from his pedestal as head of the house and will spend his evening at home making dresses for “baby Kollo” while “wife” spends her evenings at the club. As for Ruthovitch Williaminsky, we can say she is truly professional in both name and ability to dance. After the show the Orpheum Cafe was rushed with orders for orange ice and cake. The Sophomores noted with pleasure that their own colors, brown and gold, had been used as the color scheme in the refreshments. Altogether the evening was one of the most memorable we have had this year. Everyone declared that “you’ll have to hand it to the faculty; they know how to entertain.” Our hmufrrtl xixhj-Jine FRESHMAN-SOPHOMORE BANQUET, 15)22 (hir h imlrrd xi.i’t if-si.v t ulljr IFr r a1}man- nplj omnrr Hamptrt Plans and hopes for an event which would be the crowning one of the year cul- minated in the banquet prepared for the Sophomores by the Freshman class. Those who would class this event as an ordinary repetition of an annual affair, have for- gotten to consider the entertaining class. The Freshmen proved themselves unusually skilled in planning all three phases of a banquet: decorations, menu, and entertainment. Each in itself was perfect. Guests hosts, and hostesses assembled in the high school assembly which was transformed into a spacious drawing room. Mr. Casler, master of ceremonies, in a properly dignified and composed manner arranged the line for the grand march to the gymnasium. But who could believe we were entering the “gym”, for we were ushered into a veritable roofed garden. This garden had individuality in being created in green and gold—colors suggesting the Freshman class. A low roof fashioned of wide strips of green and narrow strips of gold was further enhanced by a strip of black night which separated this heaven of colors from the green lattice work sur- rounding the room. Large brown baskets of tiny yellow flowers suspended from the roof furnished the last requisite for a perfect garden. Long snow white tables were illuminated by flickering yellow candles. Smiling daffodils flashed before us their wealth of yellow gold, symbolic of both classes. What proud and pleased guests to find their colors—brown and gold—adorning the little nut baskets! The yellow grapefruit baskets decorated with little brown ribbon bows made charming containers for the Sophomore Cocktail. The courses were served as follows: Sophomore Cocktail Chicken a la King Buttered New Potatoes Jellied Peas Radishes Rolls Spring Salad Cheese Straw Fruited Ice Cream Cake Mints Coffee This menu, prepared and served by the domestic science department, was the per- fection of culinary art. Pauses between courses were as enjoyable as the courses themselves. The or- chestra numbers were much appreciated and received generous applause. Three spe- cial numbers—very special too—added much to the entertainment: Mr. Beebe’s vocal solo, “Nature’s Adoration” by Ludwig; Miss Burton’s whistling solo, “Monneto from Don Giovanni” by Mozart, she herself accompanying on the harp; Miss Delzell’s solo dance “The Pipes of Pan”. Mr. Showalter, the toastmaster who was “in deeper than you think” quoted by way of introduction: The time has come the Sophomores say, To talk of many things. Then the following toasts were given: Of why we’re here............................Mr. McDaniels Of the Sophomore year .. Mr. Simon Of Peru ways............................. ...Miss Sparks Of joyous days...............................Miss Hillquist Of hard tasks done. Mr. Green Of victories won.............................. M ’- Delzell Of the hopes commencement brings... Miss Palmer In each toast there was much fun. Mr. Green’s story of the little boy who promised the superintendent not to kiss little girls until he was a man, caused much laughter. Each speaker left with us some thought that we can treasure as a future guide and help. What, after all, is more enjoyable than a good toast program As all things in time come and go and are stored as treasures in memory’s hall, so this unsurpassable banquet ended and became a memory.

This Committe has justly earned the commendation of all the students (who did not buy tickets) by furnishing us with high-class movies every week or so (mostly so) and by the splendid artists who have provided us with so many long evenings of peaceful sleep. Some of the famous speakers which the Budget has en- gaged are these: Billy Hohenzollern His Highness the Shah of Persia Henry Ford Carrie Nation Erlancl Nelson Billy Sunday Benedict Arnold Nero (of Rome) The last two speakers will be awaited with interest because of the distance they will travel to keep their appointments. HOME ECONOMIC GIRLS HONORED The Home Economic Girls again come into the limelight at ( lie Fresh- man-Sophomore banquet. These girls are preparing for the great life work of catering to the better sex so whenever a feed of any kind is staged the girls are given a chance to practice their culinary skill upon the poor deluded and unsuspecting public. While at one time the girls succeeded in poisoning ten or twenty of the Training School Pupils no deaths have as yet resulted. However, the girls expect to have better luck this time so the Profs, the Doctors, and the Undertakers await with glee t he expected returns from the annual Freshman-Sophomore banquet. ( htimiinl strin f i - irn THE PERUVIAN OF 192 2 Otte hmnlred serant -thrrr P r u I xi 3 up It has been said that history ought to be more than a mere catalogue of dates and we maintain that a Peruvian ought to be more than a cross between a hash-house directory and an edition of the Police Ga- zette. The editor tells us that he was elected editor-in- chief last spring and we weren’t and then he said that he would be editor all by himself. He finally conde- scended to let us be his vassels as humor editors and we were to arrange the annual Rogues Gallery of the Peruvian. He shows the boys and girls in their Sun- day clothes and calls them by the names their dads make out checks to, whereas, we call them other names. His section is written in English and ours in U. S. A. You can decide for yourself which is the worst, anyway he is to blame for most of this. He drove us to it, so turn the page and don’t get mad. On ' hundred sc rent - fan r J3n-r (£nnfs The Peruvian Staff this year has secured a Historian and Biographer of note, Mr. Gabha Lot, to assist them in the publication of the Humor Section. This gentle- man agreed to take nine of the most popular and prominent people in school and in three hundrd words more or less, make complete fools of them, enemies for the Staff and a little humor for our readers. This Historian, like most of his collegues is very biased and looks at life thru a Convex Mirror and from a pessimist’s standpoint. If you object to any of Mr. Gabba Lot’s witticisms we can arrange to have you take your troubles up personally with him, warning you in advance that he is six feet six inches tall, weighs two hundred and fifty six pounds and swings a wicked fist. So cast your lamps over the following section, remembering that the truth he has told may possibly have been warped and twisted out of all recognition. CARLOS BLUMINSTEIN ROSENQUIST, Ong, Nebr. Grandpa is an old gent who, after following Agricultural pursuits for about steen ears, decided to come to Peru and get an edication. But Grandpa can act just as voung (and a good deal more foolish) as the rest of the boys and were it not for that telltale shining dome of his and his feeble and cracked voice we would never have guessed that he voted for Grant. Carl is such a busy man that he has little time to lake part in school life. On the memorable occasion of the election of the Y. M. Presi- dent his speech to the congregation was somewhat as follows: “Fellows, before we proceed to the election of a Y. M. President I want to say I am so busy I don’t want wnih]°J'°n very lnul but if you insist upon electing me to this honor I nuU ho h , '1 Needless to say when the election returns indicated that Mr. Rosen- plete surprise ,,ORltlon with a total vote of G for him, it came as a com- One of the most peculiar things about Grandpa is that he has a childish conviction that he s a basketballer. It is pitiful as well as amusing to watch him on the basket- ball floor. He mopes around with a dopey look on his mug waiting for some one to present him with the ball and if he does get the ball the only thing he can think of is to shoot and then maybe they’ll give fifteen rah rahs for Grandpa. But many things can be forgiven the aged, for no doubt he was quite a man in the prime of his life. RICHARD MADDEN, Pawnee City M hen Madden dumped all his worldly belongings into his rod bandana and bummed his way to Peru via the boxcar route, his heart was aflame with the ambition of being the most prominent student in school. When he arrived he was asked to come out for football so that he might be knocked aound to give the varsity practice for their games. He thot he was quite a footballer until Coach grabbed him by the neck and lined him up in front of the first string men and told them that it was almost useless for them to scrimmage with such a weak specimen on the opposing team as this guy was he had by the neck. “Why,” said the Coach, “when you scrimmage with this guy in the opposing lineup you have to imagine you are hitting somebody about ten times as good in order to get any practice at all.” We notice that this guy has gone with a good many of the young ladies of the college—at least once. But then it is quite apparent to us that the only reason he didn’t repeat a date with the same girl is be- cause it didn’t take any of them long to get wise to the fact that she had drawn a blank in the lottery. This same Madden bird was elected Editor-in-Chief of next year’s Peruvian—of course there must have been some mistake; we don’t see how he could possibly have been elected by any normal minded group of people.

He thinks he is a general favorite with everyone in school and our hero is especially strong for ath- letics. He can he seen with a fair cam pan ion perched upon a stack of pillows in the center section of the bleachers at every game and, in addition, has no mean ath- letic recoid himself. At the local chess tournament, for example, Donald brought the spectators to their feet by dribbling the entire length of the board and hopping a bishop. Don is not usually rough but on one occasion he got exceedingly so and cussed out the terrible oath “Oh Pshaw”! When that naughty Sharrar House Gang launched the Universal Paddling Cam- paign the boys came nearly spanking Donald but finally old Judge Swat decided that the decree meant only that every man in school was to be paddled, so of course Don was exempt. As a pianist Donald not only tickles the ivories but the audience as well. Pop Sousa himself made the unqualified statement that he had never heard anything like Don’s playing and it is a well known fact that Caruso would give almost anything to hear one of his selections. FRED ROTHERT, Harvard, Nebraska One day a corn fed hick emerged from the sticks in the western part of the state and landed with his telescope, containing all of his worldly possessions, at the Bur- lington depot. Just why he chose the Burlington to convey him to his destination is not known, perhaps he decided that the many other lines entering our Missouri river metropolis were too pretentious for so lowly a country lad. At any rate he landed safely and trudged fearlessly up the hill to take his place in the busy life at Peru. It was thought by some few of us who were privileged to see the comic sight of his arrival that it would be a difficult job indeed to assimilate him into the life of a typical Peruvian—and so it was. You may have guessed, you who know him by sight, that this lad of whom we write is “Fritz” Rothort. One day when Fritz was a lad he read Hawthorne’s story of “The Great Stone Face” and the story took such a grip on his rather weak and childish mind that he decided to take this character as his model in life. How well he succeeded in misinterpreting the “Great Stone Face” may be de- termined by one glance at his stern, rocky, expressionless countenance. Fritz tries to pose as a woman hater but he can’t pull that old stuff off on this bunch of owls, be- cause we know darned well that the only reason he isn’t a society man is because he is so crude and homely. vu V.. . -....... no doubt, to make up for this burst of extravagance from the proceeds of the Peruvian sale. Since Kelly succeeded in buying his way into office we feel thaL m justice to the rest of the staff, some explanation of this book is necessary. We feel a little hesitant in turning the spotlight on the real facts of the case since it would seem im- modest for us perhaps, but truth will out anyway and so here goes. If there is any- thing- about this 1922 Peruvian which especially pleases you we feel sure that it has One hundred se ecu t y-se veil POSfWQUIST One hundred enlg-ciglit (Continued from page 177) (font's come from the pen of some member of the staff or thru their diligent labors. On the other hand, if there is any part of the book which does not meet your approval we feel sure that it is from the clumsy pen of Kelly or through his bunglesome work. Perhaps our self-righteous attitude can be excused when you take into consideration the wearisome task we have had in trying to get Kelly to work. But perhaps you don’t know this foul ball when you see him; well he is an easy person for us to point out to you because he’s the only guy on the campus who looks like an undeveloped corn stalk. Oh. he has a “keen” figure we can tell you; one day he fell down on the sidewalk and split the concrete smack dab in two because his elbows and knees were so sharp. His figure is not the only cutting thing about him, however; he has a tongue poisoned with insolence and sarcasm which he uses with telling effect. We don’t sup- pose that Kelly will let this stuff get by his editorial sheers but we just had to write it to relieve our minds. ELMER WILSON, Peru, Nebraska e are about to make you acquainted with the supreme egotist of the Peru campus. Perhaps though, we have made a wrong start because if you have attended Peru in this, the year of our publication, you are sure to have noticed this man of colossal conceit who so willingly thrust himself before the public gaze, and so no formal in- troduction will be necessary. We feel that it is our duty, however, to set to right the deluded idea which some one or two of his friends (he only has one or two) may have in regard to his character and integrity. It took us about two days to get hep to this would-be Napoleon but we don’t exactly see that it is our fault because when we asked him who the most prominent personage in Peru was, he reluctantly admitted that he guessed he was about the most important guy in the outfit. So you see— when he admitted it himself, what were we to do but believe him? At least, as we say, for a day or two. Very shortly after school started, for he is an energetic piece of cheese and does not allow the rats to nibble, he started propaganda for the or- ganization of a Student Council, with the understanding, of course, that he was to be the big fireworks. Following his eleet:on he proceeded to the President’s office and told Prexy that the way in which he (Prexy) was running the school was the bunk and that it would have to be stopped right away. “Do you understand?” he says to Prexy. As an agitator and apple-knocker he has no equal. What strikes us as being particularly humorous is his attitude of kingly superiority. Can’t you just picture him with his chest inflated, hand across his breast in Napoleanic fashion, surveying h:s Peruvian kingdom? In a loud commanding voice, like the roar of a thousand lions, he exclaims, “I am the mighty WPson. Fall ye down at my feet and do me homage, the Maker and I have decided that this is my domain.” VAUGHN HUMBUG CASLER, Utica, Nebraska (Written by Mr. Gabba Lot after a personal interview.) I am Vaughn Humbug Casler. I came to Peru to tell the Pres cient how to run the school. I am a Freshman but you could never te'l it to look at me. Before coming to Peru I was in the army but finally decided to resign from the service because Gen- eral Pershing and the war department had it in for me and I faPed to get the recog- nition I deserved. After I received my discharge I came to Peru to educate the natives and inaugurate flashing reforms. Accordingly I was very active in organizing the Student Council but the Council has accomplished very little this year due to the fact that I wasn’t elected Chairman or even Secretary by the ignorant and ungrateful mem- bers. Although I only received two votes for Freshman President (and then was accused of repeating) I did pull enough wires to become Class Treasurer however and One Hundred Seventy-nine One hundred eighty (Continued to page 179) jlrtEi Ghuifs have grafted enough to enable me to come to school another year. This gave me a chance to get before the public, which is something 1 never miss an opportunity to do, for can I not give them a line that will knock ’em cold? 1 got another singularly unexpected honor at the banquet and being Master of Ceremonies also gave me a chance to strut around and look important. And though I do say it myself I’m worth looking at. In fact you’ll have to doff your hat to me, Vaughn Humbug Casler, the champion toreador of Peru. DEAN POMEROY and GEORGE WILLY We have decided that Dodo and Toppy should be remembered together for several reasons: First, because they are such good friends; second, because the two nick- nanus go well together; third, because both infest the dormitory parlor at regular intervals; and fourth, because of their baritone (bare-of-tone) voices. They are typical Rocky Mountain Canaries and when they sing we feel like asking, “Who set the wild asses free?” Anyone reading this should have the common pol.teness not to tell Toppy and Dodo about our opinion. Toppy Willy is big, strong and manly and a football star, he says so himself so it must be true. When the opposing line is weak and clumsy Toppy simply tears ’em up. He usually makes more yards than the center or either of the guards, due to the fact that he is quarterback and has the opportunity (which he makes use of) of carry- ing the ball every three times out of four at least. Dodo in addition to his voice is noted for his gracefulness and beauty. If it were not for the fact that he is slightly bow-legged, pigeon-toed, knock-kneed, flat-footed and string-halted and were it not for that face of his he would run Paap a close second for the Arrow Collar advertisment man. FLOYDE HIGGINS. StePa, Nebraska The rogue’s gallery would not be complete without the entrancing and altogether charming photo of Higgins. He is the lad who thinks all the dames on the campus are plumb wild about him. You should have seen him the day he arrived in Peru from the tall uncut somewhere near Shubert or Stella; he sure looked like the prize motion picture rube. Higgins says he is quite an athlete but we were down to the football held at evey game in the last two years and we failed to see where he had any class as a stellar performer on the gridiron. He reminded us of an old draft horse trying to keep pace with a bunch of race horses but then we can hardly blame him, because being a farmer lad he would naturally be more familiar with the draft horses than with the racers. Besides being infamous as a football performer Higgins is especially noted for his supposed beauty. The girls all think he has the most divine curly locks and Hig, who emphatically agrees with them, takes no end of pains to keep his “mop” presentable so that he may bask in the pleasure of feminine ap- preciation. On his dresser may he seen a complete line of cosmetics which he applies at regular intervals to preserve his wondrous beauty. We will never be able to be- lieve that Hig does not use kid curlers, or an electric curling iron, to put the much admired wave in his hair. The only subject Hig is able to talk intelligently upon is clothes; whenever he hears of a new fad in fashions he rushes down to ( jeka’s tailor shop to have his measure taken for a new suit. In fact we have learned from reliable sources that Hig is about the only reason why a tailor shop is a profitable undertaking in Pei'u. Ob well, Hig says he shou’d worry as long as dad is content to work like a slave back on the old farm to furnish him with money. (h r Innubit rii hIij-nnr w. I.-. Hoyt. A. B.. A. M.

Students are also a1 lowed to use their own discretion about attending classes, which will meet regularly once in a while. THE FACULTY He who sticks by the job in spite of fate, unappreciated and contumely, sticking for the pure love of duty, is noble. History moots it little whether his idea be mis- taken, his purpose erring or no Napoleon gets into the Glory Gazette. He stuck until they stuck him. The kaiser will lose face with future generations, not because he did horrid murder on an international scale, (Nap did that), but because he quit, cold and yellow, when he couldn’t draw to a bob-tailed flush. Students know and understand that faculties are useless, non-essential appendages to an institution of learning. Judging from what result they get, the faculties must understand it too. Yet who wants to quit the starched shirt- and swallow-tailed frock and saUy forth to sell the humble tamale or the lowly shoe-lace? So the faculty, too, is noble. They st’ek, stick, in spite of the mere pittance of wages, abuse by those whom they seek to uplift, and cruel quirks by the comic sections o' Sunday papers—they stick, stick, stick. One hundred eit ht y-th ree ICUterarg JnMgraltinn Written by Accident Dale Unimportant jflarultg iFatmra lanrtng! PROF. PAUL INSTIGATES FLASHING REFORMS At a special meeting of the faculty held yesterday afternoon in the Li- brary. a resolution was drawn up by Prof. Paul and passed by the faculty forcing dancing on helpless and unsus- pecting students. Altho none of the de- tails have been published, it is under- stood that a Department of Aesthetic Gesticulation will be established to MOST POPULAR During the High School Budget Sale when there was a popularity contest on between the college Freshmen and Sophomores. Showalter was a great aid to the Freshmen. The fact that he was nominated by the Freshmen as most popular vs the Sophomore can- didate. Willy, did not keep him from selling a large number of tickets. We firmly believe that it was mainly thru his efforts that the Freshmen won the contest, thus voting Showalter the most popular man in school. I he Fresh- men should consider themselves greatly indebted to him for his popularity and valiant effort. BARBER BUSINESS PICKS UP 1 he tonsorial artists seem to have adopted a new method of advertising. Signs of this are evidenced by the fact that the species of bobbed-haired girls is increasing rapidly in number. We must admit that this new style is quite becoming to a great many of the girls, and it might be practical if so much time need not be spent in curling and fuzzing. Care must be taken about patting little girls on the head, for they may be only women with bobbed hair and skirts. If this keeps on Mrs. Waugh and Miss Robinson may take up the style. Can it be that women are find- ing the secret of perpetual youth? carry on the work, and Miss Carpenter will be placed in chaigc. The Play- makers orchestra is to be required to furnish music for all classes in order to gel credit in Public School Music. This new subject will be required for undci-classmen and may he continued with advanced work leading to a de- gree. The student body will bold a closed meeting tomorrow to discuss tin matter and enter a vigorous protest against this radical and revolutionary measure. PROFESSOR BEATS WIFE UP Printed by (Mistake college . Various methods of enticing men singly up to the second story of the house were used, until quite a mob had been initiated. Showalter was one of the first. He. Moyd Higgins, and Red Brown can well remember how it felt anyhow. For some time the gang stuck close together in order to get some of the tardy ones. Among the delinquents were Rhodus, Standlcy. Landolt and Caslcr. Even Overboil had his turn. President Caviness lent pro- tection to a few of the boys by ask- ing the gang not to lay it on loo hard. I his can be remembered .as one of the most lively events taking place in Peru. Perhaps Milslead had due cause to order more trousers. He should thank the Sharrar gang say we. Professor A. E. Holch was hailed into police court last Saturday on the charge of beating his wife up. and reliable testimony established the ac- cusation beyond any doubt. A con fcssion was wrung from the defendant, and the judge, after carefully meditat- ing on the affair, dismissed the case, but only after the accused had given his word of honor never to repeat the deed. Eye witnesses testified that no only did Prof. Holch beat bis wife up. but he had the fire built and breakfast ready before his better half awakened from the arms of Morpheus. LATEST SCANDAL It has lately been discovered that a prominent young man in our midst has been leading a double life. This has been proven by recent develop- ments. This young man is none other than Albert Biebn. and we understand that neither of his better quaiters know the real facts. Some of his feminine admirers, wc have heard, will have nothing more to do with him. m an intimate way at least. This plot may untangle, and again it may shadow Biehn’s whole future.

TEACHKR HAS GREAT MISFORTUNE I here was great consternation in the mind of Miss Pearl Kelley when she found that she had sent her return trip ticket back to Peru in her laundiy while away on a vacation. We arc not overly surprised at this, howevei. she being a mere school teacher. As to whether she sent lor the ticket n time or bought another we are tincer- •ain. They do that way sometimes. ERRONEOUS MISTAKE When Prof. Vladimar Jisa’s lady friend was in town he was very an- xious to introduce her to the faculty- It was entirely a case of mistaken identity when he innocently introduced Mrs. IMcCallum as Mrs. Caviness. At least Mrs. McCallum can say that she was taken lor the president’s w ife.

DETECTIVE IN OUR MIDST During the past week another honor has befallen one of our Peru young- sters. Hawkshaw Grosshoeme, night watch, lias just received from the Sher- lock Holmes Detective School his di- , ploma. This has caused Mr. Gross- hoeme much diligent labor and he de- serves much credit for his work. Wc notice that Mr. Grosshoeme has lately been keeping close tab on the foolish young couples about the campus, and we feel that we owe him a great deal for his watchful care. It has also been noticed that Floyd Grosshoeme, son of Hawkshaw, inherits these sleuthing tendencies from his father. He has a watchful air about him that shows he is keeping, close eye on all law- breakers. Hunter—“You sit down on every joke I write. Mae M.-— Well, I wouldn’t if there was any point to them.

RED FERN ELLEN BERGER () tn h mfred nitn l ft Stoarft Horalizra Teachers must not attend college because of terrible temptation offered by Lady Nicotine. The State Board of Education formally decreed that teachers of the state were not to be given “leaves of absence” to continue education at Columbia, Chicago, or Northwestern on account of the prevalence of the cigarette habit among the students. The State Board, realizing that the teachers employed in Nebraska are creatures of low moral standards, and particularly susceptible to evil habits, have barred the teachers from the leading educational institutions in the country so that they may not become cigarette addicts. Of course the Board believes it is do’ng a rare act of char- ity in passing such a decree, but we wonder if their “Holier than thou” attitude should not be marked as a choice bit of humor. We would only remind the stern fathers of the Board that the old maxim “Charity should begin at home,” is not a new saying hut one often quoted by gentlemen of their own time. Of course we concede the right of the Board to legislate school matters but we wonder if it is possible for a group of politicians who infest the halls of the legislature where tobacco smoke can be sliced with a knife and law makers are ever practicing the gentle art of shooting the brown juice into the brass cuspidors, to be wholly untainted by their surroundings. The question we have finally arrived at is this: Are the State Board fathers forcing a campaign issue or do they see the folly of their ways and are they trying to steer the coming generation aright? .4 little powder note and then In dabbed on bp the oldest hen.

The program had been well advertized in the Peru Pedagogian and by Dean Delzell so there was a large crowd of perhaps twenty persons in attendance, among them it is rumored, were some of the Faculty mem- bers. The meeting was opened with devotionals conducted by Mr. Leo Faunee. After this Dean Delzell favored us with some of his annnounce- ments (interspersed with usual number of jokes from the 1914 Peruvian). He laid particular stress on the fact that the students are getting the walks dirty by continual travel on them and they must reform and in the future “keep on the grass . The rest of the morning’s program was occu- pied by community singing. The execution of “Old Zip Coon” was es- pecially enjoyed by all. There is a persistent rumor that Vladmir Jisa is the composer of this delightful ditty, if this rumor becomes authenti- cated friends of “Vlad” have little hope of him ever living to a peaceful conclusion. After a few more songs Chapel was dismissed because of the fact that the audience had entirely disappeared with the exception of the janitor who remained to lock up. Students have expressed the hope that all our chapels may be as inspiring and beneficial as this one. Willy: “I didn’t meant to break off your train of thought.” Dodo: “Oh, that’s all right. It was only a freight anyway.” Behn: “Did you ever see the Catskill Mountains?” Poole: “No, but I’ve seen ’em kill mice.” Miller: My head aches terribly this morning. Dentist (absent-mindedly) : Why not have it filled? This weather reminds one of the seats in a Ford car. How’s that? Just enuf spring to make you sore. Mildred Barnes: What did papa say when you told him your love for me was like a gushing brook? Burley: He said “Damn it”. Wilcox: Where did you do most of your skating while learning? Lois Tyson: I think that’s a rather personal question. Neighbor: Look here, sir, your dog has just eaten one of my chickens. Borland: Thanks for the information. I won’t give him any dinner. Prokop to Prof Paul: I am indebted to you for all I know. Prof. Paul: Don’t mention it. It’s only a mere trifle. ■ - v. i 7 «• Hundred Fire Postoffice Library S tU CUtB of JJlHU mill lip mrlrnmr Highway to Nebraska City itt pbraflfca CCitu Presbyterian Church bridge Across Missouri 7 H'n 111 nfl rrtl Si.

Nebraska City Cham her of Commerce Tiro II Ilithe,I Serai MAIN PLANT GENERAL ELECTRIC COMPANY SCHENECTADY N v A Gateway to Progress There it stands—a simple forty-foot gateway but unlike any other in the entire world. Through it have come many of the engineering ideas that have made this an electrical America. The story of electrical development begins in the Research Laboratories. Here the ruling spirit is one of knowledge—truth— rather than immediate practical results. In this manner are established new theories— tools for future use—which sooner or later find ready application. The great industries that cluster around Niagara Falls, the electrically driven battle- ships, the trolley cars and electrified railways that carry millions, the lamps that glow in homes and streets, the household conven- iences that have relieved women of drudgery, the labor-saving electrical tools of factories, all owe their existence, partly at least, to the co-ordinated efforts of the thousands who daily stream through this gateway.

This data covering organization, financ- ing, advertising, construction, selling and original features has been systematically tabulated and forms the subject matter for our series of reference books.
