For nigh three years did we escape the horrible clutches of war. But when we clearly saw- that its evil fangs struck at the sacred foundation of our country its honor and integrity a mighty wave of just indignation swept our land, leaving the sword unsheathed, with the light of heaven radiant on its blade. Once more the spirit of 7(5 is revived. The spirit that conceived our independence, that opened the gates of a mighty nation, w'ithin whose portals the oppressed of every people have found protection. The spirit that heard the crack of the lash descending upon the defenseless slave hears today the cry of humanity struggling under the crushing heel of militarism. What winder, then, that the present is witnessing the energies of this spirit diverted into channels that will ultimately mean the liberation of all of the peoples of the globe. Clad in the invincible armor of a democracy awakened to its wmrld possibility, its decision resting upon the impregnable foundation of justice and honor, our youths are today waving our Hag, the emblem of an unbroken glory, in the smoke-reeking atmosphere of Europe. Caught in this profound spirit, our Alma Mater, with glistening eyes, vet with a proud heart, has watched the cream of the flock leaving the fold. Spurning fortune and fame, they plunged into the deadly night of war when the dawn of success beckoned them in the distant horizon. Already two of them have paid the price of freedom. They have joined the golden constellation that stands emblazoned on the field of human liberty. But though dead, yet shall they live in the memory of their Alma Mater, and above all in the emancipated spirit of humanity. rage 3 TABLE OF CONTENTS Faculty Classes Organizations Forensics Dramatics Publications Music Military Athletics Literary Humor Snapshots Pane- I EAST ENTRANCE TO CAMPUS No fantastic robe That e'er caprice invented, custom wore, Or folly smiled on, could eclipse thy charms' LOWER CAMPUS IN WINTER By forms unfashioned, fresh from Nature's hand WALK IN FRONT OF SMITH There’s a feeling within us that loves to revert To the merry old times that arc gone ” £ eg m INGHAM FROM BARTLETT Mount where science guides, Go measure earth, weigh air, and state the tides.

Acting as both dean and president and standing at the head of a department, a tre- mendous amount of work and responsibility has rested upon his shoulders. He has shown himself fully equal to the task, however, and Ripon has passed through one of her most successful years in every way, despite the abnormal conditions. Dean Barber has been at Ripon for twelve years. Ha has held the office of dean for three years. Alumni and students will unite with us in express- ing our deep appreciation of his dauntless courage as a leader and of his unselfish devotion to duty. 1‘agf IS FACULTY Jessf.

During that period of time, great progress has been made in both oratory and debate. Men under Professor Boody’s training have twice taken first in state oratorical contests, while of the ten debates held since 1915. seven have been won. Sincere application and hard work of each and every man. together with skillful direction, are the factors that have brought success to Professor Boody’s teams. Professor Boody Fred Helm again represented Ripon in ora- tory this year, and although he did not win in the state contest, he came so near to doing so that not until the last judge’s ballot had been counted was it possible to pick the win- ner. This contest, held at Waukesha on Feb- ruary 15, was undoubtedly the best and most closely contested in the history of Wisconsin oratory, as is evidenced by the fact that every contestant was given at least one first place by the judges, in the order of marking. Beloit received nine points. Lawrence ten. and Ripon eleven. Thus but two points separated first and third place. Helm is a Junior this year, and we hope to have him with us for another year.

Six intercollegiate debates were sched- uled. a greater number than had ever been held before. Of these, five were won. two by unanimous and three my majority decisions, while the negative lost the last debate at Coe by a decision of two to one In the dual debates with Milton and Carroll on February 22 and March 15, respectively, both Ripon teams won with ease. Our boys showed them- selves far superior to their opponents in both argument and delivery. Ripon awoke to the fact that she was represented by the strongest debate teams in her history. The boys began to put forth their best efforts in preparation for the real test of the year in the triangular with Coc and Northwestern, in the hope of maintaining a perfect record. On the afternoon of Thursday. March 29, the affirmative team met and defeated the Northwestern negative at Ripon by a two to one decision, in what was doubtlessly one of the finest and closest debates ever heard from a Ripon platform. On the evening of the 29th the negative team which had previously won two unanimous decisions, met Coe at Cedar Rapids, but lost by a two to one count. While the Ripon team may have suffered slightly from over-confidence and from lack of coordination, they fought hard to the finish. We point with pride to the fact that our boys proved themselves game losers and admitted that they had been fairly beaten. While the results of the last debate disappointed our hopes for a perfect record, yet five victories and one defeat, or thirteen out of a possible number of eighteen decisions, is an unparalleled showing, and one that we are truly proud of. The results of this year show that forensics at Ripon are on a par with those of the strongest schools in the West. Under the instruction of Professor Boody, great progress has been made during the three years just passed, and we look with confidence for a still better record in the future.

It has established a high standard of workmanship and is promoting a real appreciation of one of the greatest of the modern arts. Only such students as participate in the public presentation of a college play are entitled to member- ship in the Mask and Wig. A play is given each semester. Parts are obtained through competitive try-outs. The plays thus far presented by this organization are the following: A Scrap of Paper, by Victorien Sardau; Mice and Men, by Madeleine Riley; The Neighbors, by Zona Gale, and Mercedes, by Thomas Bailey Aldrich. A Midsummer Night's Dream, by Shakespeare, is in preparation for the coming Commencement program. The Alask and Wig affords an excellent oppor- tunity for the student to cultivate and display his ability in the histrionic art.

Ripon College displayed her patriotism by- instituting compulsory Military Drill into the school’s curriculum. Drill was formally begun Wednesday, April 18th. immediately after the Easter vacation. This did not allow a great deal of time for drilling before the close of school in June, but it was generally conceded at that time, that the boys had made remarkable progress. Drill was hold at 4:30 on Mondays, Wednes- days, and Fridays, one hour’s credit being given for the work. The drill of these two months consisted mainly of the school of the soldier and or the squad, with a few platoon and company movements worked in gradually. Drill was held in the gymnasium at first, but later most of the work was done out of doors. It will be remembered that the College Company played a large pan in the movie which selected the Ripon College Campus as its setting. The company also took part in the Ripon Loyalty Parade, and made a very credit- able showing. With the opening of classes in October, nineteen hundred and seventeen, drill was again begun in full swing. It was held three times a week as before, but two houi-s credit was given per semester, as the drill covered a larger period of time. During the second semester, however, drill is being held but twice per week, but it is compulsory for all. Owing to the nearness of winter, the company was not able to drill in the open every night, but nearly every time it was possible to do so, the College Band was on the job to assist in the marching. This Fall the College furnished wooden stocks to be used as guns, and the manual of arms was taken up along with the rest of the drill. This training in the manual of arms has also fulfilled the highest expectations of those in charge, and the company has learned to become very proficient in combining the manual of arms with the squad, platoon, and company move- ments. l’ogc iii MILITARY The Honor Roll Max Ailing Ray Atchcrson Harold Baldwin Herman Barthorpe William R.

Barrett MILITA It V War Service Training “Over the top of the hare, brown trees the moon shone down on this grave world of tragedy. “Over the top of the Milky Way, 'round the foot-worn paths of faith, devo- tion. and heroism. “Over the top of the star-lit blue, rose the sweet resolve to do patriotic duty, in the breasts of seven virginal souls. The Traveller in-the-night with the lilt of a quaint old song. “For men must work and women must weep.' on her lips, pressed onward up the hill and mused: Alas, that men must work, and in working drain their noble blood for the salva- tion of all that is dear in our own home land and in the lands across the seas. Alas again that women must weep. Their willing hands and slender frames must take up “the burdens of the heat of the day and must present a fair coun- tenance, though “the heart within is hot with anguish. The Traveller in the night paused at an open doorway. Light streamed without from the cheerful room. It was a bonnie vision. Seven students of Ripon College, Emma Irene Bjornstad. Grace Harris. Margaret Hill. Dorothy Rummcle, Marjorie Heffernon. Francis Zemlika, Jessie Callahan, in spotless white, were bending patiently to alloted tasks under the tutelage of Red Cross graduates. It w as the workshop of the Surgical Dressing Class. Here they, seven, had come for the ten long weeks and more, inspired with lofty zeal for the crying cause of the nation. With perseverance and efficiency they have mastered the delicate art of making dressings, which are sent out broadcast through the world on their errands of mercy. What comfort they bring to the wounded even on the pain- racked cot. to the Red Cross nurse on the scarred battle plain, to the surgeon groping over No-Man's Land, to the hospitals oppressed with life ebbing to eter- nity, wc only know in part. The example of these good girls whose diligence and oblation of time and pleasure to the nation’s tasks in warfare can not be over-estimated and should be imitated by all in every educational institution. In truth, at this critical time in the world’s history, just such labor as Red Cross and Surgical Dressings should be a part of every College course and should be hold in like esteem as studies of more intellectual depth. The seven felt the divine revelation of laboring for love's sake; thus through love “the colors” arc woven into their characters: Blue for loyalty, White for purity. Red for sacrifice, bound together with the prayer for the greatest treasure now on earth, the American boy as he goes over the top.

As a result Ripon had no track team in the spring of 1917 and was not represented in inter- collegiate football in the Fall. But at another meeting in Milwaukee, on November 10, 1917, the suspense was broken. The Executive Committee of the Wisconsin Intercollegiate Athletic Association unanimously re- solved to resume athletic relations, realizing the great importance and value of such, especially in time of war. As a result of this resolution, Ripon has chalked up the third consecutive championship title of the W. I. A. in basketball; and from all present indications she has excellent chances to capture the state title in track for the year of 1918. Page 120 ATM LE TIC S Coach Olsen Ripon was indeed fortunate in securing the able services of Harold G. Olsen, for- mer star and captain of the University of Wisconsin basketball five, and an all-con- ference gtiard. There is no doubt in the minds of anyone that Olsen knows as much about the game as any man in the Middle West. No coach has ever had greater obstacles to fight against. Wc were never playing twice with the same line-up. Sickness and injuries seemed to set fate against us. Eaton, our captain, was out practically ail season: Halverson was nearly fatally in- jured; Leaper suffered with a broken elbow; and every squad man was sick at some period or other during the season. Olsen did not give up; he kept at the wheel and brought the ship safely through. All those who have come in contact with Olsen speak well of him, and feel that his program of courtesy and strict honesty is well worth while. His friends at Ripon arc many, and he has the entire support of the student body. It is the sincere wish of every student that he will again be with us next Fall to take charge of foot- ball and basketball. To Harold B. Haun as manager of ath- letics belongs a great share of the credit for Ripon's success this year. He spared no pains in looking after affairs and in caring for the men. Although kept very- busy with many outside activities. Haun was always willing and ready to do things and never failed in a pinch. Manager Hai n Page 121 athletics Basketball Harold G.

Although our captain was out o: the game most of the season on account of illness, the time that “Hank did play clearly showed to all what an im- portant cog he was in the great ma- chine. He was a hard, consistent player at all stages of the game, and his long shots were dreaded by all the guards in the conference. Max Giedunski—Forward Ripon High School. Age. 22; height. 5ft. 8in.; weight, 140 pounds. Four years’ experience. Max joined the Crimson Five when the season was nearly over. However, in the last few games his work proved a great asset. His consistent playing in the Maruqette University game was the chief factor in enabling Ripon to obtain her victory. Ben Page—Center. Ripon High School. Age. 22; height. 5 ft 10(4 in.; weight. 151 pounds. Eight years’ ex- perience. • Beany” scored more points for our quintet than any other man. He was a sure shot. While weak in defense, he more than offset this by his excellent offensive work. Page’s loss will be felt in the building-up of next year’s team. i'agc 1J3 ATHLI-TICS “'Sonny” Williams— Forward. Oshkosh High School. Age, 20; height, 5 it. 7 in.; weight. 130 pounds. Four years’ experience. ‘‘Sonny’’ was the lightest forward that Ripon has ever used. He was undoubtedly the fastest man on the team, and he was an ever aggres- sive player. He had an accurate eye for the basket and made good use of it in the games he played. Pep” Lunoe—Guard. Racine High School. Age. 20; height, o f:. OK in.; weight, 102 pounds. Five years' ex- perience. “Pep” was the old standby of the season. He played in every game and was on the job every minute. His passing was excellent, and at times he had a fine eye for the basket. “Buck” Lea per—Guard. Age, 21; height, 5 ft. 11 - in.; weight. 158 pounds Five years’ ex- perience. Although “Buck didn’t have much of an eye for the basket, he cer- tainly made up for this in his ability as a guard who could stick to his man. Leaper clearly displayed his grit by playing one game with a broken elbow. Page 224 ATHLETICS Money” Monrok—Forward. Fond du Lac High School. Age, 20; height. 5 ft. Sin.; weight, 139 pounds. Four years' experience. Although this was Monroe’s first year of college basketball, lie proved him- self a man worthy of his position. His dribbling was excellent, being sur- passed by none. He was a consistent worker, and next to Page, was high point-getter. Oscar Hi-rkst—Center. Schlcisingerville High School. Age, 19; height. 6 ft.; weight Ififi pounds. Two years' experience. Herbst was the find of the season. Until the season was nearly over he kept plugging on the second team. His ability finally showed forth and he played in the last three games. Oscar held his man to no baskets (in both Marquette games). He was there on every rebound shot. We expect great things of him next year. Eccs Ecdajil Guard. [Vausan High School. Age. 21; height, 3 ft. £ in.; weight. 155 pounds. Three years' experience. Eggs,” in his first complete game at Marquette, proved to all that he was a man that could fill the guard position. A cleaner player than Egdahl could not be found: he did not foul during the entire season. Holton Halverson—Forward. Stoughton High School. Age, 19; height, 5 ft. 8 in.; weight. 132 pounds. Four years' experience. Halverson, because o: his great mis- fortune through injury, was with us for only the first two or three games. “Halvy” in this short period clearly showed his worth, and it is hoped we can have him with us next year.

I.utidc ATHLETICS ATHLETICS 1918 Basketball Season in Review THF basketball season came to a sudden and unexpected end when it was discovered that Beloit had disbanded for the season, thereby cutting Ripon out of the third important game. Coach Littick showed himself a good sportsman when, in a signed statement, he forfeited the game to Ripon. This was a great disappointment. That Beloit was weakened at the end of the season was doubtlessly true. But what college team in the state has not suffered from the exigencies of the war and other causes? Furthermore, where is there a team that has suffered more than Ripon? At times they have been almost shot to pieces, from not only the war but also from sickness and injuries. Lunde is the only regular who started the season and remained until the close. As far as championship honors are concerned, none are bold enough to make such a claim. In saying this it is with full knowledge that Ripon has the best claim on technicalities. Lawrence was offered a game with Beloit earlier in the season, but declined, while we gained a victory by forfeiture. Ripon does not like to win championships that way. We are not inclined to open up the question further, but let the honors rest easy. Was the season a success? From the standpoint of victories, hardly. While this is generally and rightly, too. the best standard for judging, yet we are of the mind that a team which has played well, played hard and consist- ently throughout, has made the season a success. To say that this year's team is comparable to last year's would scarcely be true. Nor would such a comparison be fair considering that the latter was for the most part made up of an aggregation which had played together for three and four seasons, and was. perhaps, as strong as any team which has ever represented the institution. While, on the contrary. Coach Olsen was obliged to start de novo with a squad, not one member of which could have been considered a regular last year, and had to contend with war, sickness and injuries, almost unto death in one instance. And it would not seem strange at times, that he and the hoys felt faint-hearted. But they rose above it all and came out at the end as a fine and fast aggregation. 1 have seen only the games that were staged on the home floor, but 1 believe that with the exception of the Stevens Point contest the spectators were always treated to a fine exhibition, and excellent team work, boih in defense and attack, was displayed. Page 127 A T H LETICS When it came to basket shooting, the team was the best balanced that has represented the school, in my day at least. The coach has tried to develop his guards as point winners as well as defensive players. I veritably believe that, were it possible to keep this years squad intact for another season, we would have a wonderful team, if not Ripon’s best. We started the season with a game at Madison against the University and subsequently had a return contest on the home floor. We lost both, of course, but that has been the invariable rule. The second contest of the season was with Bushey's Business College of Appleton, which proved to be a romp, as they were allowed but a single free throw, which is doubtlessly the severest defeat that was ever administered by a Ripon team. The game with Oshkosh Normal hardly proved good practice. The real game of the season was the wonderful exhibition in which we dis- posed of Lawrence to the tune of 27 to 15. Our rival came to fish, but she brought the wrong bait and tackle—she found whales instead. The contests at Appleton and Stevens Point proved disastrous. 1 didn’t see the exhibitions, so I can simply say that we lost, and no excuses are offered. The home game with Marquette was wonderfully hard fought. Were the time-keepers tardy? Ten seconds were all that was needed for our opponents to stale-mate us when victory was seemingly ours then the play-off well, you remember the score—we were defeated. Defeated? Yes. because w-e lacked the final punch, due to the misfortune of having two of the hardest games on successive nights. Defeated? Not by a superior team, but by an unfortunate schedule. We went to Milwaukee for the return just to show them how the game should be played. The score of 20 to 10 in Ripon’s favor was a fitting climax to the season of 19IS. G. A. Talbert.

The Sophomores organized, electing Lunde captain and Haun manager, while the Freshmen elected Naslund captain and Sheldon manager. The Frosh challenged the Sophs to a game, and on Saturday. October 13, at Ingalls Field, a crowd of three hundred people saw the Frosh go down to defeat in a hard-fought battle which ended 6-0. The game belonged as much to the Freshmen as to the Sophomores, as far as ability was concerned, the ball going back and forth over the center of the fieid during the greater part of the game. On October 27 another battle took place, both sides feeling con- fident of a victory. The Sophomores settled down and played a caliber of football which looked like the old Ripon style, and hammered the Frosh to the tune of 26-0. The Freshmen never made first down, and they were completely outclassed by the “Mighty Sophs’ from every viewpoint. As a result of these two games, the Class of '20 was declared champion, having a clean slate, with its goal line uncrossed. l'.lgc 13a m aScj Sophomore Team Clement, Derrwaklt, Hat n, Howland. Ivey.

Besides the regular work, an advanced course has been added this year for which all those who had completed two years of the work were eligible. This course, at the request of the girls, has been essentially a teacher’s training class. Giving orders for marching, and teaching games and folk dances has constituted the greater part of the work. Each member of the class was given the opportunity of observing and taking charge of the regular classes at defin- itely assigned periods. The regular physical training course is compulsory for all Freshmen and Sophomore girls, and has been permanently established in the school curriculum.

LITERARY The Mission of Our Crimson WHEN the Nineteen-Nineteen Crimson is submitted to its readers it will mark the passing of another long and eventful year in the history of Ripon College. We cannot but look back upon the period since the publication of the last Crimson, conscious of the fact that the year which has passed has been the most critical and trying in the history of our country. In full realization of the great issues at stake and of the undivided support and tremendous sacrifices required of every loyal American citizen as well as of every institution, in order that the cause of humanity and of freedom may be won. we have endeavored to portray through the pages of this volume the spirit of a patriotic Ripon, living only toward the fulfillment of the critical hour’s crying need, dedicating alike the work of her class rooms and the lives of her sons to the sacred cause of that civilization, which, we believe, stands for justice and for truth. May the names of the one hundred and fifty heroes emblazoned upon the field of service be a challenge to the sacrifices of our present students, and remain a living testimonal to future Ripon generations of the fact that their Alma Mater had given her best and had Fought her noblest in the battle for civilization and for truth. For many of us this book marks our farewell to Ripon We have worked long and faithfully, endeavoring to express through its pages the life wc have learned to love so well, and to commemorate the faces of those who have become dear to us as classmates, friends and companions. When we are widely separated from one another in the paths into which duty and service may lead us. then may the memory of old friendships and the light of old faces again shine forth from these pages May the high ideals of service, the unsel- fish spirit of sacrifice, and above all. the unflinching devotion to right and truth which our college associations have served to instill in us, he forever emanating from this volume; so that the paths of service may be made easier and the call of duty may become clearer. Such is the mission of this, our Nineteen-Nineteen Crimson. Page no L I T E R A R Y Reflections From Within Sad is my heart,— do not feel like singing,- When through the streets i see the boys a-swinging. They share a noble privilege to me forbidden; For once unto my soul the lance of fate was driven. 'Tis for no trifling cause that they prepare, 'Tis not an empty dream entrusted to their care. They're to complete the noblest errand of mankind. When loved ones, home, and happy times they leave behind. hear the “call from millions in a throng, And louder does it grow as time does move along. The echo meets a brave response from shore to shore And to the ranks there spring ten million men and more. 0 Gallant Liberty, weep not for thy beloved dead, 'Tis for thy universal reign that they have bled: And on their humble graves when war and hate are past The eternal light of peace and love will meet at last. Thou Slacker, how const thou pause so long While the air is filled with a martial song- Liberty is bleeding by the sword of autocracy And drenched in her blood are the wings of Democracy. Awake from thy slumber and harken to the call. Cast from thy soul its vain pretensions, one and all. Align thy true self with Freedom's holy light. And prove unto the weary world that right is might. Lest we forget, 0 Heavenly Father of Mankind, Grant as Thy Light to shine, that we may always find The path of love, and guide us to that harbor fair. Where Freedom's flowers cast fragrance through the air. Teach us the power of love, reveal to every nation That in its bosom lies the secret of salvation. And may they never cease to seek that blessed shore. Where peace shall reign supreme and war shall be no more. Page 141 H UMOR A Dream of Hope Is life a cheat, a babble of some cruel late That lingers in a baseless hope at the eternal gate Within whose portals naught is found but dark and gloom Where echoes shatter all the dreams and leave but doom? Ah, dreadful thought, why lurkst thou in my troubled mind? Const thou not sec the future goal in what is left behind Of life: the seed of an immortal flower Thai cannot lose its essence in an earthly bower? Under the ashes of doubt seek to the last end For the embers that speak of a soul to defend. Watch them flicker ’neat It each wave of emotion That leaves in their wake a spiritual vision. Editor’s Note I i'. perchance, in the perusal of this volume you fail to rind some things that you feel ought to be here, and find other things that you feel ought not to be here, remember that the composition of this volume is the result of the careful planning of a large representative group of people and that the things herein contained are only those which in its judgment are the most important and the most worthy of finding expression in an annual. Remember likewise that there are limits to every enterprise. In planning the 1919 Crimson, the editors have had to deal with certain problems in finance, and have had to face abnormal condi- tions which have made it impossible to do many things that we should have liked to do. However, with the opportunities we have had. and the limitations we have had to observe, we can truly say that we have tried to make the 1919 Crimson finer and better than ever.

April 1. If)IS. the faculty gathered in the college office for their weekly chat. At 4:16. Dean Barber called the meeting to order. The minutes of the previous meeting were read by Young Doc Gilman. “Well,” said the Dean, stowing a wad of fine cut in his cheek. “What’s new to-day?” ' I have, said Prof. Boody, a new idea which I wish the members of the faculty to consider carefully. It struck me, as I was getting out the new catalogues, that there is one innovation that we might start here, in order to attract the students. Wc advertise our campus as being the most beautiful in the state, hut as the grass that grows on it is only ordinary grass, and the trees are only ordinary trees, this statement does not carry the weight that it should. Now we have a large number of squirrels on the campus, and while their color is only an ordinary grey, this can be remedied. Now, my proposal is this: that we get Herman and Julie to round up all the squirrels on the campus, take them down to the paint shop, and paint their tails green, thus giving them an individuality of their own. Let them do this for two or three years, and then all the new squirrels would be born with green rails. If they need any help to chase after the squirrels, let them hire Hartwell to pick them oft the ground, and Vogtsberger to pick them off the top branches.” “Mr. Boody has sprung something new on us. said the Dean, Green-tailed squirrels peculiar ro Ripon College Campus, to advertise the college! What do the rest of yon think of the idea?” “Why.” said Dr. Mutch. “I think it’s perfectly cute.” What shade of green would you use?” asked Miss Goodrich, “Curly, Bowling, Gretna, Freshman or Paris green?” I should think that Paris green would be both handsome and patriotic,” said Miss Heisc. Yes-s-s,” said Prof. Fehland:. “Speaking from a sociological standpoint, 1 can say that I see distinct advantages in such a proposal. It will create a marked change in the squirrel tribe, a change for the best. As these squirrels are born with green tails every year, they will realize that they belong to a distinct order of the squirrel family, and will therefore uphold the honor and dignity of the Ripon College Campus.” “Every body seems to be in favor of the idea, said the Dean, shifting his quid to the other cheek. Let us put it to a motion. Now all in favor say .” Just a minute,” said Young Doc. You all seem to be laboring under a mis- apprehension. The fact that a squirrel's tail is painted green does not mean that it’s offspring will be similar. According to Weissmann, acquired characteristics are not transmitted to the following generation. Also, according to Schnickelweincr----------.” “Aw, can that stuff, said Prof. Taintor. You give me a pain. We had this thing coming fine, and now this guy butts in and spoils it all. Let’s talk of some- thing else.” Nix. said the Dean, “Time’s up. A small voice inside of me tells me to go to supper. Somebody make the motion to adjourn.’’ Page. 14?

According to a statement by Mr. Derrwaldt, in an interview granted to our reporter, these misguided men had the in solence to ask him to stop playing his cornet, for at least half an hour every day. As he pointed out. this would be absolutely impossible, for he does not wish to get out of practice. His position as third cornet of the Picketts Band makes it Imperative that he practice fifteen hours a day. When the students heard of this outrage, they called a mass meeting immediately to consider the best way of deal- ing with the situation. The feeling ran high as Buck Leaper and other elouqent speakers addressed them on the sacred rights of mankind that were being violated in this manner. Mr. Leaper hade them re- member the time when their forefathers left the shores of England, and fled from such tyrrany as the men of West Hall sook to impose. He told them of their voyage in the historic Mayflower battered by the storms of the Atlantic, and of how they finally landed on the bleak New England coast, where thew found nothing to ear except a few ears of corn and a lone Plymouth Rock. Our forefathers recognized the right of every man to toot his own horn, whether he came from Plymouth, New England or Plymouth, Wis., and this right had grown sa- cred with succeeding genera- tions. Were we. in the twenti- eth century going to surrender our birthright? After some more talk, it was decided to appoint a committee to see the Dean and ask him to take the neccessary steps to bring the culprits to order. As a result of this, the West Hall men were called into the office and severely re- primanded for their crime. And they were told that if they wished to study in the future while Mr. Derrwaldt was playing, that they should go over to Athenian to do so. Heard From the Platform “The procession will star- front the campus, and the girls will take their proper place at the rear of the column.” ‘ When a girl with a wad of gum in her mouth conies chewing in my face, my mind reverts to my boyhood days on the farm, and I feel In- clined to say to her ‘Get over. Boss.’ ” “When I was at college, the habit of borrowing clothes be- come so common that you could not tell whom you were meeting on the stree:. “I concluded my last speech with the assassination of the Grand Duke.” HUMOR HI PON COLLEGE NIGHTS The Ripon College Nights Published once-in-awhile by rhe goats that get on the Crimson staff.

It is with regret that we announce that the application of Mr. Edward Morse to be appointed captain of next year’s football team, has been rejected by the faculty. As Mr. Morse was the first mar. to hand in his application, the members of the faculty felt that he ought to have the job. Furthermore, they realized that the enviable reputation that Ripon has gained in the past would be safe in his keeping. But they could not help thinking of young men on the other teams, and how essen- tia! it was to the country that their lives be spared and their limbs be kept intact. There- fore it was with sorrow that they felt constrained to reject the application. The boys of Smith Hall held their annual banquet at the Leroy Hotel last night. Presi- dent Wilson.

Owen Speaks at Vespers Rev. R. H Owen addressed the students at the Vesper services last Sunday. In spite of the fact that no admission was charged, quite a large crowd gathered to hear him. His theme was “The need of Harmony in life.” Life, the distinguished speaker said, consisted of one blame thing after another. In order to obtain HARMONY, it was necessary for us to abstain from SHARP words and FLAT jokes that are liable to break the CHORDS that bind us to gether. The STAFF of life is bread, although soda crackers are sometimes substituted. He was glad to NOTF. that most of the students looked NAT- URAL. in spite of the fact that they were suffering in a MEASURE from MAJOR studies and MINOR ailments (mumps, measles, etc). In concluding his .MUSICAL voice rose to a CRESCENDO, as he exhorted his hearers, that in order to maintain the even TENOR of their lives, it was necessary for them to REFRAIN from all BASS actions. This space was reserved foi Robert Jones. He started to tell us the joke at 1 o'clock, but we did not hear the end of it because we had to go to supper. Mr. Dusty Thirston, repre- senting the “Order of the Sons of Rest” gave an interesting talk on “Booze” in the yard of the Southwestern Hotel last evening. The speaker was full of his subject, and punctuated his remarks with his fist when anyone disagreed with him. After the speech Mr. Thirston entered into a physical contest with August, in which he gained second honors. With the courtesy due to such a dis- tinguished visitor, the city pro- vided him with free lodgings for the night.
