C o p j r i g f) t 1928 THE DU BOIS PRBH BUILDERS or FINE BOOKS AND CATALOGUES ROCHESTER, NEW YORK Pf tU Ctftr Printing and Engraving tston Our Alma Mater had its birth in 1S69, when her founder was divinely led to establish a school that was liberal in education and fundamental in religion. With her natural advancement, there has grown up around her an intangible something which we call atmosphere, a distinctive spirit saturated with noble ideals and earnestness of spirit. We speak as alumni. The recreation of her spirit within us—this is our heritage. We have been inspired by no greater sentiments and loyalties than those which have clustered around relationships to each other and to our Alma Mater. Chesbrough, you have come to the crossroads. The promise of your future greets us in the achievements of the past. We can pay no higher tribute to you than to assure you of our faith in that future. In you we find an institution old enough to have traditional values and young enough to be progressive. Any picture of the Chesbrough of tomorrow must necessarily be a view of Chesbrough College. Looking down through the vista of arched elms dotting the peaceful campus green, we see a fitting representative of that distinctly American institution, the college of liberal arts, whose contribution to our national life, in statesmanship, in scholarly achievements, and in natural and spiritual uplift, is excelled by no other institution. We see a college that docs not confuse bigness with greatness — is not an educational factory for mass production of intellectual morons, but is rather a force making for a broader intellectual and spiritual life, combining sound scholarship with sound character and the pursuit of knowledge with devotion to God. We observe a school that feels the cross currents of life and endeavors to inculcate in her sons and daughters the spirit of sacrifice and service that shall fit them to go forth into the world, equipped to bring back to this materialistic age, the high idealism and teaching of the Galilean philosopher. Z n Cfjesbrontan 1928 Hail! Alumni! Ye Noble Men and Women to YOU the 192.8 Staff of Chesbrough Junior College presents THIS, THE EIGHTH VOLUME OF OUR BOOK. LIKE TWIN SENTINELS, TUB COMMANDING FIOURE OF AN EARLY VISIONIST AND TUB GRAYED OLD SELF-EFFACING BUILDING OF TENDER MEMORIES STAND GUARD, WATCHING UNNUMBERBD DAYS AND COUNTLESS THRONGS HURRY ONWARD TO THE GREATER SCHOOL OF THEIR DREAMS. i- IF THIS VOLUME SHALL PORTRAY DISTINCTLY THE SPIRIT OF DEVOTION AND GROWTH WHICH HAS CHARACTERIZED OUR 192.S SESSION, WE SHALL BE AMPLY REWARDED. WE OF THE STAFF OF 2.8 BEQUEATH TO ALL FOLLOWING STAFFS THE TASK OF MAKING EACH SUCCESSIVE ISSUE A BETTER BOOK. DEDICATION To Our Alumni WHOSE LOVE AND SACRIFICE HAVE MADE POSSIBLE OUR HAPPINESS AND OPPORTUNITIES IN CHESBROUGH AND WHOSE CHALLENGE TO NOBLE SERVICE IS EVER BEFORE US, IN EXPRESSION OF OUR APPRECIATION THE ANNUAL STAFF IS DELIGHTED TO DEDICATE THIS VOLUME. ¥ esbrougfi’si iUbminiStration George V. Garlock, A.B., President No tribute that we could give would be an adequate expression of our feelings of love and reverence for our dear President, whom God has seen lit to lay aside for this year. Why is it that, in a good cause it is necessary for one man to give his time, his talents, his energy, his very life that it may make advancement? Docs it mean that supposed friends arc not interested enough to help lift? Or do we lack cooperation? If so, let us take a lesson from the motor in our car, made up of many parts, different in material, size, shape, and function. Yet, how well pleased we arc when, out for a cool drive on a hot summer day, our motor functions perfectly. Why is that so? Because conditions arc favorable and the different parts cooperate well. That is the whole thing in a nutshell. Should we ask one man to furnish the funds, inspiration and enthusiasm to make conditions favorable for the progress of Chesbrough? Surely we could not ask him to work alone without cooperation. Yet we have allowed him to work alone; consequently Providence has taught us a dear lesson. Let us loose those bonds of laxity and disinterestedness that bind the human race today; and let us break over into the front ranks beside our noble President, with the determination of a Daniel, the courage of a Lindbergh and the millions of a Ford to encourage our leader and establish the cause of Christian Education in the East at Chesbrough.

The painted cheek and smiling eye. The merry dance and rousing song, to do what duty asks. The road to glory's straight, and far Away from where the revels are, With many a dusty mite to tread and countless dreary tasks. Two ways there are for youth to go, and one is gay with song: The other calls for earnest men and rugged hearts and strong. Bewitching sirens lure the feet Of those who sigh for pleasures sweet. But when the purse is empty, boy, in scorn they pass you by; 'Tis time enough to dance and sing When you have done some useful thing. And youth must strike for goals afar which old men dare not try. You'll never get to glory, lad, by traveling pleasure's way; Who steps aside for dance and game shall see his strength decay. So bend your shoulders to the load And trudge the rough and dusty road. Content to reap at harvest time the fruits of what you do; And choose the brave and earnest souls Whose eyes have turned to distant goals. And they shall make you strong and wise and peace shall dwell with you. Edgar A. Guest. 29 Esther Owi.ktt Peaceful, thoughtful, and resigne Always modest, sweet, and kind juniors; WlBLBY SlIlIAKIiR He gains the prize who will the most endure; Who faces issues; he who never shirks; Who waits and watches, and who always works.” Arline Wheeler She’s one of our stars.

It's a bandy thing for men folk, it's a useful thing for wins. It's a cleter new int ention made for sharpening carving knives. And I paid to him a dollar without giving it much thought. But I've learned some things about him, since that article I bought. He sold me on the merits of the thing he had to sell. Never let me guess that morning what a story he could tell; I thought him somewhat better than the common run of men. But the burden of his sorrow wasn't even hinted then. We were just two busy mortals working out our little lives, a writer, he a salesman of a thing for sharpening knives. Of the tosses he had suffered, not a word he spoke to me, He came to talk on business, not to ask for sympathy. He was down through grim misfortune, as I later came to learn. But was fighting for existence tilI the wheel of luck should turn. And was just to game to whimper any sad and sorry tale— On the merits of his product he would make or lose a sate. So I bail that fellow's courage and I mark him as a man. One too big to ask for business on the common beggar's plan. No apology he offered for the thing he had to sell. He would not affect my judgment by the sorrows he could tell. And I give his illustration of one brave man I have met. Who would not display his heartaches for the business he might get. Edgar A. Gukst Stenography Class Commercial Department America leads the world. In how many ways and to what extent may be debated but that she is the world's BUSINESS leader is freely conceded. It may have taken a World War to make her that but the World War proved it. The history of Modern America is the history of Modern Business and as America spells the greatest opportunity in the world, so BUSINESS spells the greatest opportunity in America. Every great nation has made its contribution to the onward march of civilization: China gave it powder; Arabia, the alphabet; Judea, religion; Greece, literature; Rome, laws; and America in her turn has given to the world the Science of Business. The rise of commercial education is due to the fulfillment of a need, the results of which can be no better described than by the application of a thought expressed by Emerson, If a man write a better book, preach a better sermon or make a better mousetrap than his neighbor, though he build his house in the woods, the world will make a beaten path to his door. Statistics show that 100,000 business men and women die or retire from the commercial field annually. This means the recruiting of a tremendous army, fitted for all positions from the lowest to the highest every year. Chesbrough's Commercial Department is endeavoring to give that thorough and practical training necessary to properly equip recruits for that army. Graduates from this department of other years arc filling positions of trust and responsibility in Rochester, Buffalo, Batavia and other cities, and the class of '18 goes forth, fully determined to carry their class motto “Efficiency into life's work. 17 Commercial Class Com m ereia Department Lillian T.

As one of the aesthetic arts, it is considered no more as a luxury, to be taken up and enjoyed by a few, but rather as indispensable to a well-rounded education. Music is one of the best mind trainers in the world. As such, it is given a prominent place in the hi h school curriculum. It is possible for an individual to major in music thereby receiving as much credit as for English, History, or any other subject. Such credit is given for Piano or Voice study with practice for same, together with some study in elementary theoretical subjects. Thus the advance of music in schools and colleges is doing much to cultivate public sentiment for the finest and best in the art. The value of music as an inspiring and ennobling factor in the lives of young people cannot be overestimated. Hence the well-known slogan, Music study exalts life. It aims to dcvclopc a sense of appreciation for the highest and best. The music department at Chesbrough offers opportunity for Piano and Voice study, and also theoretical work. The department of Voice maintains a mixed chorus of over fifty voices. This organization meets twice a week regularly, thus enabling its members to receive state credit. During the year, the chorus rendered in concert, two cantatas, King of Kings,” by Stults and Wolcott's, The Message Eternal. Through the courtesy of Professor Charles F. Rogers, an alumnus of Chesbrough and now head of the University School of Music at Tucson, Arizona, a music essay contest was initiated last year. Mr. Rogers gave a beautiful silver cup to the student writing the best J500 word essay on The Progress of Music in America. Miss Havreth Owlctt received the cup. This year the contest was renewed with the following subject for development, Music's Place in a Well-rounded Modern Education.” A beautiful new cup was awarded to Miss Marie Snyder winner in the contest. hi n stiicki : of the itttbetx CvJ hr 1 few. k: ittn a proo:aect o aa|or u awe 1 tablet Sod icthcr With woe oaltiTitc poHx mpricjtaole-Hcocc the «tU to. ; 83Sggg jgME« Ladies' Quartette MARY BUTTS MARIB SNYDER II BEEN BENN MARION O BRIEN Alumni Harmony Four AUSTIN PIKE STEUCKE STRICKLAND 41 Courage, Courage, Courage! When the bur Jen grows heavy, and rough is the u-ay. When you falter and slip, and it isn't your day. And your best doesn't measure to what is required. When you know in your heart that you're fast growing tired. With the odds all against you, there's one thing to do; Call on your courage and see the thing through. Who battles for victory ventures defeat. Misfortune is something we all have to meet: Take the loss with tht grace you would take in the gain. When things go against you, don't whine or complain; Just call on your courage and grin if you can. Though you fail to succeed, do not fail as a man. There art dark days and stormy, which come to us all. When about us in ruin our hopes stem to fall. But stand to whatever you happen to meet— We must all drink tht bitter as uell as the sweet. And the test of your courage is: What do you do In tht hour when reverses are coming to you? Never changed is the battle by curst or regret. Though you whimper and whine, still the end must be met. And who 'fights a good fight, though he struggle in vain. Shall have many a vict'ry to pay for his pain. So take your reverses as part of the plan Which God has devised for creating a man. Edgar A.

Such matters as the school picnic, the election of the publications' officers, and gifts of flowers to our friends arc taken care of by this body. It is the highest court of appeals in our school; the reason of each individual setting in judgment on school questions. Declamatory Contest The annual Declamatory Contest was held on May eleventh, with five students competing for the prizes of ten, five, and two and a half dollars in gold. The judges, consisting of Mrs. Mitchell, Mrs. Stewart, and Mrs. Hutton, chose the following winners: Gracb Lampus—First....................... The Evolution of the Dreamer” George Elgin—Second.......................... What Think Yc of Christ” William Frederick—Third............................... Colonel Lindbergh” The first contest of this kind took place in 192.6 and was made possible by Rev. F. M. Hendricks, an alumnus of the class of '15. It is our intention to foster the interest manifested in these contests and to make each one excel in quality and value the one of the preceding year. The iMinisterial Association The Ministerial Association is composed of twenty-two young men and women who have heard the call of God to labor in His vineyard. As a band of earnest young Christians, we esteem it a privilege to do the work of the Master, to follow in the footsteps of the lowly Nazarcnc. Our aim during the year has been to deepen and enrich the spiritual atmosphere of the school, and to respond to any call to help in God's work. To this end, the different members of the Association have preached, sung, or conducted services as they were called upon. While preparing for a larger work for Christ, we have not despised the day of small things, ' but have endeavored to do with our-might what our hands found to do, and God has blessed us in the doing. The meetings of the Association have been held twice a month. They have been well attended; the programs included sermonettes by different members, and also talks by outside speakers. While we believe we have gained much as an Association, we feel that there is much land ahead yet to be conquered. The cry wells up within our hearts, Oh, for a closer walk with God. This is our supreme desire, that we might be so filled with the Spirit of God that we may be enabled to lead others into a richer experience in Christ. As young people we have put our hands to the plow', and there can be no turning back; God nas saved us for service and we mean by His grace to keep true to the ancient landmarks and to preserve the purity of Free Methodism wherever He may place us. Stir me, Oh, stir me. Lord! I care not how; But jtir my heart in passion for the world. Stir me to give, to go-but most to pray. Stir 'til Thy blood-red banner be unfurled 0 er lands that still in heathen darkness lie— O'er deserts where no cross is lifted high.” Alary E. Carpenter AMissionary Society The A. M. Chesbrough Junior College aims to educate for true, Christian character, and in accomplishing this work, the Mary E. Carpenter Missionary Society has been an important factor. This Society, the Eionecr society of the church, has been in existence for forty-one years and when we think of the many who avc gone from here and have spin their lives in the work of the Master and of those who are now laboring for Him, both in the foreign and in the home land, we believe that the efforts of this Society and of our Alma Mater have not been in vain. It has been forcibly impressed upon our minds this year that although we cannot all go to the foreign fields or even to the home mission stations, yet we can all be true missionaries to those around about us. We are coming to realize more and more that the need of the hour is a manifestation of the Christ-like Spirit in all that we do and say. The Home Mission work has been especiallv called to our attention this year by the presentation of slides concerning our work among the Mexicans. The showing of the slides was made more impressive by the singing of The Ninety.and Nine by the trio—the slides corresponding to the words of the hymn. We have also been privileged to hear from Mrs. Adelaide Beers who has charge of the Mexican Girl's School in California and who was formerly a student of Chcsbrough. We have this year a Mission Study class under the able direction of Mrs. Garlock. This class has been using The Cost of a New World as their text and have found it to be a very interesting as well as beneficial study. Realizing that the gospel must be preached unto all nations,' quite a number arc in preparation for labor in the fields that are so needy. Our faith is large for the future; we are expecting lasting results. Thi maximum fer tht Mairtr, Thi minimum ftr mt. With ministry to all in urtJ, Hrnttftrtb my rutt shall I .

The Student Volunteer Movement The Student Volunteer Movement was founded in t8S6 by a mere handful of men who were burdened in their hearts about the needs of the world and who were praying and thinking about these needs. Robert E. Speer, John R. Mott, and Robert P. Wilder were these men. Not only during the years when they were students but all through the years since then, have they continued to present Christ effectively, to move and hold student thought and life. They have remained in positions of leadership in the student movements, not because they desired to keep the control and to dominate these movements by their own personalities, but chiefly because no students have come up from the on-coming generations to take their places. The Student Christian Movement of Great Britain and Ireland has a total membership of 7,44). This Movement was the pioneer of missionary study in these countries. The Student Volunteer Missionary Union is the special missionary branch of this larger and more general body. From it have sailed 1,819 student volunteers; that is sixty to seventy per cent of the student volunteers of England and Ireland who have signed the declaration card have gone to the foreign field. The executives of the Movement feel that what the colleges need is a deeper spirituality, a new conception of vocation, for no one can be a Christian without settling his life-work under the direct guidance of God. 47 Alethepian Literary Society The word Alethepian is composed of two Greek words which mean those who tell the truth. There arc fifty members in this Society and each one has his own talent which is demonstrated when taking part on the programs. The Society's purpose is to give the student self-confidence when speaking before people, to help him to express his thoughts in a pleasing manner; to help keep the students in touch with what is transpiring in the world at large; to bring forth the talent and ability in each one; and to aid in the social development of the student. Our meetings have been excellent this year. The program committees have done their very best to make out interesting and appropriate programs which have consisted of readings, reports, extemporaneous speeches, musical numbers, original essays, current topics, and humorous selections. These programs have been very well attended, thus showing the interest which the members have in their Society. We have had several joint meetings with the Pierian Literary Society in which some members of each Society took part during the evening.We have enjoyed these meetings very much. Our Literary Society has been a great success this year and we arc planning to make it a larger and better one next year. Our officers have been the right persons to fill the places and each one has done his best to help. We started out with a goal in view and each year we expect to set it a little higher and do our very best to reach the mark. We expect our annual Commencement Program to be the best ever given and a credit to our Society. 4S Pierian Literary Society The purpose of the Pierian Literary Society has been to cultivate appreciation for the best in literature, and music, and to enable the student to think and express himself clearly and effectively. Since it's founding in 1915, this organization has been uncovering and developing hitherto unknown talent in the form of promising singers, readers, writers, orators and musicians. From the programs of wholesome entertainment rendered bv our own talent, every member has garnered intellectual truths seasoned with bits of fun and humor. It is a certainty that the meetings of the Pierian Literary Society have been a prominently inspiring factor in our school life. The high ideals which have been set forth in the programs of our society have made an indelible impression upon the minds of all who nave attended. It has been and still remains the ambition and desire of every loyal Pierian to create and establish a Literary Society that will do justice to our beloved Alma Mater. With this in mind, every member has put his shoulder to the wheel and the great machinery of cooperation has been set in motion with the result of accomplishments far surpassing the desires of our loyal workers.

We have endeavored to give of our best efforts to put our Alma Mater on the map as a College. We arc just started. Nothing can defeat us in our aims and purposes. Chesbrough, we arc with you whole heartedly. We have waited anxiously for the 1928 Cbtsbron'tan. As we leaf through the yearbook we live over our school days and resolve anew to be faithful to our Alma Mater. Christian Education Herbert Spencer said, To prepare us for complete living is the function which education has to discharge.” God has given us mental and physical powers, but it is our duty and interest to learn how to use them for the development of our minds and the accumulation of knowledge. This mental advancement should be especially marked by growth in the knowledge of God. As Free Methodists, we arc intensely in favor of education, which our record clearly shows, and we have tried and arc trying to impress this generation with this fact, by the provisions we arc making in providing Christian schools. Seminaries and Colleges for their benefit. We believe in the public school system of this country, and it is a large part of our glory that a schoolhousc sets on every convenient cross road, and our towns arc blessed with magnificent high school buildings, and only the highly trained teachers arc employed. We cannot speak too highly in its favor, but we deeply deplore the lack of moral instruction, and the enmity that is abolishing the Bible with its holy influence from the schools. Christian Education (Cont’d) Our church fathers had a vision that extended into the future, and therefore wisely planned for the welfare of our church in this age, when the enemies, who arc encroaching upon true religion and on Christian education arc on the increase. The late President Woodrow Wilson said, The universities would make men forget their common origin, forget their universal sympathies, and join a class—and no class can ever serve America. The demand of the modern wise men, who arc filled with philosophy falsely so-called is that we give up the miracles of the Old Testament; then the imprecatory Psalms; then the 'vindictive and bloody laws of Moses;’ then Moses himself; then, all the prophets; then miracles of the New Testament; then the Apocalypse; then, the doctrncs of eternal retribution; then, the Holy Ghost; then. Inspiration; then, Jesus Christ; then, God Himself—” this is the modest demand of the unbelieving wisdom of our day and generation: this substituting knowledge of nature for faith in God — this they say is progress; this is advanced thought;” and the race is left, its grave without a resurrection,” its universe without a God,” its sin without a Saviour. No wonder that many of our nation's leading men, arc crying to God— and to the leaders in the field of education—to again place the Bible into the schools, and arc urging its daily perusal at the fireside of every American home. Education is like a double edged sword. It may be turned to dangerous usages if it is not properly handled. This our church schools have set for themselves as their task. We believe that the instructions of the heart, in the holy doctrines of the scriptures is as essential (and more so), as the acquiring of the subject matter of the text books of the High School or College curriculum. Therefore, let us heed the urgent call to support our schools, and enable them to carry forward the work of Christian Education, which our Church fathers and devoted laity so nobly began. J.

The diamond was very inviting with its fresh coat of green, and as the pill vventflying around the bags and the hands became toughened, We knew that We were successfully launched on another season of baseball. The material vvasn't so heavy this year nor did the candidates have any big league experience, but with steady, hard practise as flashy a team as ever vvon a game on our diamond was whipped into shape. The varsity nine plays good ball and the interest of the school runs high. The school is very loyal and enthusiastic and in a great Way contributes to the success of the team. Last year the Alumni tendered the Varsity a defeat which was very humil- iating, to say the least, but look out Alumni, vve're out for blood. GIRLS, ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION ' 'REDH GIRLS, VARSITY ES MARIE ANN MARY ESTHER THELMA • •• 6V ’ ,r Athletic Association The girls of Chesbrough Junior College this year have recognized the value of the saying, There is-no wealth but health. Thus we have been striving to make our bodies a fit house for the spiritual as well as the intellectual being. Clean, wholesome, lively recreations and sports arc needed by every individual. They teach us in many ways the greatest lessons of life, such as fair play, good sportsmanship, loyalty, self control and mental alertness. We cannot but see how important and essential these admirable qualities arc in the wonderful game of life. Such qualities we have been privileged to dcvclopc by the help of our calisthenics classes, under the direction of Miss Howard, a graduate of Kcuka College, who is intensely interested in the physical dcvclopcmcnt of the girls at Chesbrough. These classes arc held regularly twice a week, and all girls arc required to attend. Hiking, tennis, and outdoor ball were most popular this year. During the first and last terms the girls were urged to keep physically fit by participating in outdoor sports and games; while during the winter months basketball held sway in our athletics. We had an interesting contest between the Blacks and the Reds, ending with the Reds as victors, having won three games out of the four played. The games were interesting and the teams quite equally matched. Beside this contest we had various other games between the classes; the outside and inside girls; and between the girls from Pennsylvania and New York, which aroused our interest in basketball and other sports as well. The aim of our association is to present a helpful, safe, and interesting dcvclopcmcnt physically, in order to have clean moral as well as clean physical living. h i Tennis One of the finest and cleanest of sports in today's field of athletics is the sport of tennis. It is a game that calls into play all the muscles of the body, not violently nor yet sluggishly. It also trains the eve as the player watches his opponent and the white sphere. The interest was exceptionally keen this year because of the staging of two tournaments. The games were well attended and the spectators were favored with some thrilling games. All of the playing was fast and although the majority were amateurs yet they played good ball. Not alone was tennis enjoyed by the boys but the courts were well attended by the girls and many an early bird found our fair sex upon the courts trying to improve their eye and arm while the criticizing eye was not upon them. They likewise entered into the tournaments and high was the fervor of anticipation as they battled one another for supremacy. But both boys and girls were benefited by the exercise afforded by this interesting pastime and as Chesbro's future rolls into the present, tennis shall not decline but its popularity shall increase with the ages. 61 VARSITY Track On your mark! Get set! Go! And away over the hard beaten turf, between the chalk lines, race the spiked feet. Heads highg chests heaving and muscles straining, and the last lap. Watch them come down the beaten pathway and' as the favorite breaks the tape, the crowds go wild in their cheering. Such is the life of a track man. But not one who sees the race sees the months of patient training that developed those muscles of steel. Out to practice and the grueling exercises day after day in faithfulness trained those men for those yards of superhuman eH'ort. No man is ever a winner unless he puts himself into it and Chesbro's track team has put some concentrated effort into its practice and has developed some fast stars from whom we expect to hear in the future. The season was altogether a very successful one. .'tail Just To Remind You {Coat’d) JANUARY (Coni'tf) insyivama battles New York to tic. Et Mrs. Mason shot in ankle; faints; murderer escapes.

The End of the Rainbow The rain had been descending in torrents for a half hour. In fact it had been drizzling rain all the afternoon, but after the last hard downpour the clouds broke away, and the sun came peeping through. Bobby and Mary whose little faces had been tightly pressed to the window for some time with anxiety printed upon them, now danced with pleasure as they saw the downpour slacken and the sun appear. Anxiously they had been waiting for just this moment, when, with pants rolled above the knee and dress held high, shoes and stockings discarded, they could run about in the warm, wet grass. But as they were about to draw away from the window, behold, something appeared in the sky, wonderful, beautiful, entrancing! ' A rainbow! ' they exclaimed. Bobby said, Look, Mary, over there where the rainbow ends, Uncle Ray says there A rainbow! ' they exclaimed larv, over there where the rainb is a pot of gold. It isn't tar, let’s go and get it. Mary readily agreed, and as mother had gone out of the room and grandma could not hear very well, no one knew anything about the conversation. The little folks started out with alacrity, confident that by supper time they would be back with a pot of gold. They chatted as they went. ' Perhaps it would be as large as the iron pot mother used for making pot roasts. ' In that ease there was some speculation how it could be brought home. Uncle Ray would come and get it for them. Certainly, he can do anything, so that was settled. On they trudged until beginning to feel weary, they finally noticed that they were no nearer the end of the rainbow than when they started out. As fast as they kept f; farther and farther away. And what was more ing; in fact in some places there was beginning to be no rainbow. Completely discouraged now they decided to return home. Travelling pushing on the rainbow kept going farther and farther away. And what was more disconcerting, its brilliancy was fadir : after the rain. Now as they stopped, Mary's head dropped down and tears began to come. But just as she started to close her eyes to have a good cry, she glimpsed the glorious, golden hue all about her. Instead of as they had, with their eyes turned upon the rainbow, they had not noticed the daffodils lifting up their heads fresh and bright aft :a down and tears beg; npsed crying she exclaimed, O, Bobby, see, here is where the rainbow was when we started. We must have frightened it for it has spilled some of its gold out of the pot!” With that they each picked all the daffodils they could carry, and turned homeward. As they entered cold, wet and hungry, consternation as to their whereabouts was just being disseminated throughout the household. Mother joyously clasped them to her loving breast; daddy cuddled them in his arms before the fireplace, and grandma clicked her pleasure with her knitting needles, and the children felt they could not have found more than this at the end of the rainbow. O, if I only could,” thought Mary aloud one afternoon in spring as she lay in the shade of her favorite apple tree down over the brow of the hill away from everyone. The little brook babbling along ncarbv seemed to say, Try it, try it.” Ambition was swelling in her breast as thebuds of the trees and bushes were swelling. They too, did not intend to be only buds all their lives. They, too, would make a show in the world. What can I do? thought Mary, to become famous. Something to make my name known everywhere?” Perhaps she could swim some channel, or become a great tennis player, possibly she could study aeronautics and become a world famed flyer. The last quite appealed to her, but was rather hazardous. Her name might become famous, and be heard on every tongue, but probably only after she had drowned in the ocean or been counted among the missing. She pondered long over all the things she would really like to do. She was passionately fond of music, and already was quite noted in the high school and town for her exquisite voice. Her vocal instructor encouraged her to continue her training in this line by all means. So quite naturally she turned over in her mind the possibility of becoming a great prima-donna—perhaps as famous as Madame Schumann-Hcink. O, yes she would do it. There would lx: weeks and months and years of good hard work, but she was not afraid of work, and how she would love it!” 65 The End of the Rainbow {Coat'd) Looking into the far distant future how colorful was her rainbow, and how wonderful it would be to find the coveted pot of gold at the end! The gold of fame, of world applause. It tasted sweet indeed just the contemplation of it. Time passed. Mary had finished her education and gone to the city to secure better musical advantages. Her instructors were enthusiastic about her future. Time came when she must continue her studies abroad in order to perfect her training. She had worked unceasingly, unendingly, tirelessly. Had given several concerts in the great city which were so well attended, and receipts so generous that she would be able to spend a whole year under the best masters in Europe. Before sailing she of course returned to her home to bid farewell to her loved ones who were so dear to her, who had such faith and confidence in her, and who were so proud of her. Just to think, that night she would sleep in her own bed once more, the last time for a whole year and possibly more. Time came for retiring at last. Her father, seated by the table, reached over and picked up the family biblc; read a chapter as had been the custom in the family for years, and all knelt around the family altar as father prayed. Mary's mind was full of memories, but one sentence her father uttered gripped her. O, Lord, help Mary to use well the talent Thou hast given her. Not to be self-centered, but to use it to Thv glory!” After retiring the expression repeated itself again and again. Use it to Thy glory. Just what did that mean She pondered some time, then dropped off to sleep. Often during the voyage as she reflected on that last night at home, those words came clearly back to her. Why were they so persistent? She was a Christian, and lived as nearly right as she felt consistent with her present aspirations. But a still, small voice often whispered to her inner conscience and made her a bit uneasy. She put it aside and pursued her own course for the whole, long, glorious year. Already her name was heralded with acclaim. The newspapers welcomed her home in large type headlines. O, yes she was nearing the end of her rainbow, and her pot of joy was very full. Visiting her brother, Robert, in a nearby city shortly after her return home, he said to her one evening, I say, Mary, let's go down to the tabernacle meetings. The city is going wild over them, and you will enjoy the music if nothing more. I like the evangelist pretty well myself. He hits the nail on the head without any mistake. Mary was not very enthusiastic, but wished to be gracious so accompanied her brother to the meetings that night. From the first she was intensely interested, and she certainly did enjoy the music altho different in character to what she had been accustomed. But strangely the preaching fascinated as well. The discourse was on the parable of the talents. He impressed on the audience how that all our talents arc God-given, and should be used for His glory. He portrayed in graphic language the need of workers ro uplift fallen humanity. How Chris He gave up the honors the w the lost. The clarion call was not for seekers that night, but for workers in the vinc- purpos He gave up-thc honors the world would have lavished upon Him to seek and to save yard of the Lord. Mary's rainbow began to fade as she compared her selfish ambitions with a work like this. But how could she use her talent? Once more her head dropped upon her breast while tears gathered in her eye. With heart lifted to God and eyes closed, how dim the rainbow of earthly ambitions became. But all about her was gold, a harvest of gold ripe for the sickle. Once again she had found her pot of gold—different than she had anticipated—but infinitely more precious. nc cr talent to the Lord that night. Father's and Mother's prayers were answered. And docs she not have fame? Thousands, yes She was first among those to dedicate id Mother's prayers were answered. A millions listen to her wonderful voice almost every night in the audience and over the radio, singing songs that inspire and draw souls nearer to God. Instead of giving pleasure for just a few passing moments to a pleasure loving crowd, her beautiful voice carries a message in song that brings souls to Christ, lifts up the fallen and inspires the lost to better hopes of a future- 66 e £ ti r o u a t)’ bbertt£er£ Strawberry Icecream, Gingerale Pop!

Y. 85 WHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING The following excerp from one of his Speeches tells what Herbert Hoover thinks about the competence of government in business: “There is no better example of the incompetence of government to conduct business than the recent history of our railways. Our railways in the year before being freed from government operation employed i ,990 000 men and were not able to meet the demand for transportation. The producer and consumer both paid our hundreds of millions in losses because of this strangulation in transportation. Five years later wc find our railways under private enterprise were employing 1,746,000 men, or iso,000 fewer; they transported 14 per cent more goods; the rates were reduced; the earnings have been increased; they met every demand of service; the wages of their employees had a higher purchasing power. That is a sufficient sermon on government operation. Rochester Gas Electric Corporation GATER CENTER GARAGE L. W. IIAPP, PROPRIETOR Auto Repairing and Accessories PIIONB, SUB. J006 Cor.
