Thy noble founders heard the cry That surges o’er the world to-dav, Their dauntless spirit sends us forth, That we their precepts may obey. Editorial A S we approach our Graduation Daxj and the Commencement of our life work, we look hack over our school daxjs and it is with sorrow that we think of leaving, Mechanics Institute. We have formed mamj friendships here, Loth among the facultxj and among the student hodt). These friendships will last throughout our entire lives. Mechanics Institute has helped to make our ideals the highest possible and has taught us that “it is better to give than to receive.” There arenianxj avenues of usefulness which we maxj travel, due to the training we have received here at school. What the future holds for us is a closed book, but it is our wish that all who go out from the doors of M. I. will follow a path of helpfulness and friendship and best wishes follow oil of them. our ei eh i ■ R M innimm r a m i k i n [QMiniiiiiiiEiriiiiiiiiiTfMLiiTninTiinini]]in]]i}|i A, Ramikin Staff Editor-in-chief H ELL N M A X S FI E LD Associate Editor Mary Buckley Literary Editor B EATRIC E H E A M AN Alma Meyer Grind Editor Isabelle Warner Art E ditor Fern Filler John Scott Business Manager Walter Forschler Assistant Business Manager Clarence Sampson A Avert ising Manager Oliver Atwell Assistant Advertising Monagers Arthur Neff Wilbur Sc udder Faculty Advisor Esther Hurley Nine Ten BEVIER MEM OR] A I, BUILDING Twelve RAM1K1N iililUlilllilillllllll A Board of Directors Carl F.

Tills one word expresses my written message to ljou, who now pass the new turning in (lie road. Fare ijou well : (ire meaning in tlie original sense to journeij or to travel forth, and ftW signifying its earlier meaning of suc- cess to ijour desires, of wishes that come true. Therefore, as you journeij on, may your every good wish he carried to its rightful conclusion. But 1 would urge you to wish onhj for those things which are proper, which are just, which are right for you. This involves a consideration for others ; it demands search lor honest motives within ijOurselves; it 'proposes -what a great American called a “ square deal.” You will farewell in just proportion as ijou have succeeded in ijour journeij through the school, for each round of ijour travels takes ijour measure for the succeeding one, and what you have Leen hi old M, I- is large!ij w hat ijou will he when ijou leave. But alwaijs we have the privilege and opportunity of looking hack, of checking up, of analyzing our motives, and then of continuing on, resolved to overcome our shortcomings and to develop our hotter selves. You have done well; you have keen good for the school; you deserve the success 1 wish you. W hat Byron has so aptly phrased is what I would leave with you : “ Fare thee well! il forever, Still forever, fare thee well.

The largest, greatest and most democratic, cosmopolitan and versatile Senior Class which has ever graced the time honored halls of Mechanics Institute or received diplomas from the gracious hand of a president.of that Institution. Now that the last chapter in the chronicle of our activities is being written, it is well that we look with retrospective eyes, as it were, over the vast boundless ocean of Adventure on which our ship of knowledge has brought us thus far. Barnacle covered, is that good old ship, having accumulated more each passing day and week of our tempestuous three-year voyage. It was in September of 1918 that this good old ship was loaded down with as verdant a crew as could possibly he imagined. Presumptious in the extreme, we braved the righteous wrath of a horde of upper classmen, who in a few lessons well given brought us new comers to a fair state of temporary subordination. The reception given us by the “officers,” however, helped us to lighten the load and we really began to feel that our Boat was making progress. Upon the horizon, however, appeared the plague, “Flu,” and our ship tied up at “Quarintine” for a period of four weeks. But at the end of that time, “Full speed ahead” was sounded and this group of green navigators went to work with a will. The femininity soon found relaxation in athletics, as also did the male members of the crew. Shore leave was granted at “Carnival Island and we sturdy navigators made the dramatic element sit up and take notice, with our able presentation of the playlet, “At the Photographers.” One other stop made the first year was at “Frosh Hop” land, and a successful event was this, indeed. The middle lap of our three-legged cruise was characterized, first, by duly hazing the new members of the crew who came aboard in September, 1919. The second event was the never-to-be-forgotten roast at Summerville. What, with the wonderful full moon predicted by V ice-President Brown, could he expected but that a fine time was enjoyed by all except Loretta, who, while “fishing” in the aquarium, lost her equilibrium and fell with a splash into the cold, cruel waters, getting one arm wet. “Carnival Island” number two was made a success by the untiring members of the committee and our ship left the place with the crew well satisfied with their endeavors. The crowning event of the mid lap voyage was the Junior Prom, for which our ship stopped at the Hotel Seneca. Was it a success? Ask the committee members of the crew. Forty-four The third year and last lap of our wonderful voyage began most auspiciously. We welcomed to our midst a new group of men whose Ship of Education was wrecked because of 11 Hill Kaiser” and who are back again at thu job and right worthy navigators they are, too. So worthy are they that one of their number, a rather frail fellow standing 6 foot 4 inches in his B.V.D’s., and named “Tiny” Vogt, was unanimously elected “Captain of the ship for the remainder of the voyage. A line big commander with a fine big crew! September “gobs” having been duly appraised of their respective duties on board ship, we sailed on to “Carnival Island” number three, and disem- barked to permit the presentation of the Pilgrim Tercentenary, a Pantomine. The book, of which this narrative is a wee small part, represents the last work of this wonderful troup of navigators. We are soon to land and begin our separate journevings toward the Land of Golden Promise. And history was incomplete without a brief prophecy, f see in years to come a ship sailing through the halls of M.L, but not this M.L Nay, a bigger, better M.L, for retrogression is impossible, quite possibly situated on University Avenue. But the crew of the prophecy ship will never be the equal of the grand old ship, 1921. “Now, Willie,’ said the generous father as he and his little son were gazing into a tailor’s shop window, I am going to buy you a new pair of trousers, and you shall choose them. Which pair do you want?” After a moment's hesitation Willie said Please father may T have a pair marked, 'Can not be beaten ?' ” 'I can’t keep the visitors from coming up,'’ said the office boy to the president, When 1 say you’re out they simply say they must see you.” ‘Well said the president, just tell them that’s what they all say. That afternoon there called at the office a young lady. The boy assured her it was impossible to see the president. But I'm his wife,” said the lady. Oh, that’s what they' all say ’ said the boy.

Those four words have a great store of meaning for us, the Seniors of Nineteen Hundred and Twenty-one; for haven’t we worked, and worked hard not only for tile benefit of our own intellectual selves, but for the general good and advancement of old M. I. And, as those who are in authority can testify, alt of our activities have been managed and put across in a way that readily points us out as not only the largest, but the most unusual and finest class that has ever contested against fate—and the various members of the faculty—for the honor of being graduates of Mechanics Institute, In the first few days of our reign of Senior supremacy we showed our good judgment by electing the biggest man of the class-—Tiny Vogt—for president; and our generosity and feeling of brotherly fellowship by giving the Freshman the usual number of free trips to points of interest in and about Rochester, that might have otherwise slipped by them unnoticed and thus been unexplored. These duties having been successfully performed, we then took these self same Freshies under the guidance of our superior years and experi- ence that they might grow up in accordance with the best approved methods of Freshman existence, and be of the least annoyance to M rs. Smith. In the early part of the year a committee was appointed to re-design the school seal, which design was later submitted to the class, accepted and used in the making of the class rings, pins and charms. We consider this new seal a great improvement over the one used in former years and are in hope the school will adopt it as the official seal some time in the near future, so that a memorandum of our work will go down thru the school records in years to come. The matter of the old diploma having become inadequate to represent what M. I. has grown to be was considered. The Art Seniors designed a new one written entirely in the English type lettering. This diploma was sub- mitted to Mr. Farnum, who accepted it and we are proud of the fact that the class of 1921 is to be the first to receive these new rewards for a course of work well finished. The class has been very active not only in supporting the various social activities of the school, hut having promoted several very successful affairs of their own, including the Senior dance held in Bevier Flail on January 17, 1921. Excellent music was furnished bv a competent orchestra, a good crowd turned out, and everyone pronounced the dance a great success. Now, at last, the year has rolled by; the time for separating with class- mates, teachers and dear oV M. I. has come. We are to leave behind all these things that have come to mean so much to us, and to go out into the world to new fields unfought and unconquered. So we would leave behind us, A Good Bye, A Good Lurk mid A God Bless You. to all of those who are to follow after us and carry on the work we have tried to do. One Hundred Fourteen rnmninnmiffiumimifnTiiinininmini' i 2 A little nonsense now and then Is relished by the best of men, So here's a rhyme for a certain one; We hope that all may see the fun. To Harry 1 write this little ditty, He’s as studious as he’s witty, From Buffalo he beat a gallant retreat. Oh, yes; he’d rather study than eat. When other hoys are all “at camp,” You’ll find “Tiny by the evening lamp, No matter how pleading this little boy looks, He won’t keep away from his study hooks. Now Harry’s a bright Senior lad, Dancing is his greatest fad. But before exams he studies alarmingly. And recites in a knowing manner charmingly. Good times in Buffalo has this young man, Yet in Rochester he studies as hard as he can. Now, his name before I choke ; Why, of course, you know it’s Harry Vogt.

I. as We Would Like to See It M It was ten years since the illustrative class of 1921 had graduated from M, I., and before wc entered the old front doors we made up our minds to be prepared for many changes. Naturally, as we walked down the hall, our thoughts centered on Miss Benedict’s office. As we near this sanctuary at the end of the hall, wc hear unusual sounds—laughter and loud voices. At the door we meet two students coining from a conference and with faces wreathed in smiles; they turn and say to some one within, “Thank you, we’ve had a darned good time.” Wc enter and there in Miss Benedict’s place sits Loretta McCarthy—the pepiest member of that peppy class of ’21. She tells us she would like to have us compare the M. I. of now with M. I. of then. In M iss Steve’s room, teaching a very interesting problem, orange nichers, we find Eileen Tracy. From joys of Freshmen sewing our thoughts turn to dressmaking and tailoring. In what we knew as M iss Duntz’s room, Doris Potter sits at the desk. But she tells us that her pupils seldom think of her as a Jewess and now she conceals the fact that her father is a rag picker in Fayetteville. She then takes us to a class in Foods and Dietetics. Behold! Ruthie Dibble, with a Hawk in one hand and Matthews in the other, reigning supreme in her same old dignified manner. She is assigning a lesson and concludes with, “If you don't find time to study this, don’t worry. It really isn’t very important.” As in our day, the lab of bugs, frogs and Gladys is just across the hall. There we find Helen Mansfield and learn that Miss Riker, before she left, named Helen as the only person capable of taking her place. Miss McCarty tells us that she has a newly equipped Physics lab. Wc step on the esculator which was installed some five years ago and go to the roof of the Eastman Building. Here we find this wonderful room which they tell us in summer is screened and in winter enclosed in glass. Here, taking Mr. Van Bornestein’s place, teaching Physics with surprising ability is Agnes Peno. She looks happy and says she enjoys her work. Miss McCarty regrets that she has an important engagement with Milard Coons, now Mayor of Rochester, but suggests that she will have her chauffeur drop us at our hotel. In leaving wc pass through the office and there wc find invincible, a permanent fixture, the same smiling Mrs. Shippey—the one thing that has remained unchanged through the years. “You tell ’em stoneboat, you’ve got the drag.” One Hundred Sixteen iiiiiiiiiiniiiiiwmiinm i 9 2 1 fimiuiMmimiin wmm Appreciated Some good old fashioned customs, Go out of style, no doubt, And those horrible-looking “D, C.” We could all do without But stilt the custom lingers, And probably always will; For the same old-fashioned fun Prompts the same old penalty still.

With the natural setting as a background to rhe figures, there was formed that rare illusion which we usually attribute only to visions of child- hood under the name of Fairyland or Garden of Dreams. Yet, all those filmy shadows were the magic vapors controlled by human hands and hearts joined in genuine co-operation which made the finest achievement of the school possible. Early in the school year, a notice was posted on the bulletin board offering a prize for the best pageant written by a student on the subject “The History and Development of Mechanics Institute.” Probably everyone saw the notice and then forgot about it, but later we learned that two girls from the Fine Arts Department had succeeded, as co-authors, in producing a suitable pageant. These authors, Miss Mabel Shepard and Miss Helen Groh, in- jected into a very prosaic subject the possibilities of an excellent artistic treatment. All the necessary material for such a production was already in existence in the school. Most schools desiring to put on a spectacle of any magnitude are compelled to call on outside help for some branch of the work. In the Mechanics Institute production, each division of labor was taken care of by a corresponding department: the electrical, dressmaking and sewing, wood- working, machine, art and physical education. The last named department furnished some of the finest bits of rythmic motion through the medium of aesthetic dancing. The director of physical education for women, Miss Thelma Moffette, was the general director of the pageant. The responsibility of getting the various departments begun on their tasks, and filling the large personnel of the pageant with actors, rested on her. With the aid of other instructors and students, an army of actors was soon collected from the men and women of school. Rehearsals were begun in the assembly ball. These quarters soon proved too cramped and the ensemble was moved to the gymnasium. Later, several rehearsals were held on the grounds where the pageant was to be given. This greatly stimulated the interest in the work. In order to get the students to and from these rehearsals and also to transport the audience on the evening of the performance, a number of automobiles were required. T his problem was ablv handled by Mr. H. Martin. While the actors were faithfully rehearsing, the designs foT the costumes, under the direction of Miss Florence Spiehler, were turned out in great numbers, sometimes three or four different ideas for one character. The best were selected and carried out with surprising skill by the dressmaking and sewing departments under the direction of Miss Lura i .. Duntz. After the costumes were made, the Art Department was called on to improve their One Hundred Twenty-six appearance with stencils and dyes Fine materials went into the making of some of the costumes, while others were made of very common cloth. Yet, such craft was put into tlie design, color and lighting, that all blended into a a delightfully luminous pattern, at times gorgeous with bizarre effect, again melting into a lovely softness, satisfying to the finest natures. Mr, Z. A. Gilbert’s enthusiasm spread to all the students comprising the electrical department. These men enveloped the stage in a network. Two large platforms were constructed from which the powerful flood of spot- lights were manipulated. All these places were connected with telephone lines, thus keeping the director and the various operators in communication distance. The color used in the many lighting effects was skillfully worked out by Mr. Ulp, of the Art Department. One may still remember the ecstacy experienced when a delicate blue green, a soft rose or a warm orange light fell on the filmy draperies of the dancers, characterizing the moods. To place all the loveliness of this colored movement in the finest possible setting, Mr. and Mrs. William Bausch gave their beautiful summer garden at Rock Reach for the occasion. Thus the stage in all its natural scenery was provided, perfect in every detail and was far more effective than all the make- shifts of an artificial stage. The pool in the center of the grounds reflected the beauty of the dance, and the gorgeous procession of the colorful groups and the deep blue of the evening sky. The goldfish seemed to sew these spots of pattern together like golden needles, darting in and out of a rich tapestry. The rising slope of the green lawn at the rear of the stage, banked in on either side by rhododendrons, furnished an excellent place for the display of individual characters and movements of special import to the unfolding of the story of the pageant. This story was told in four episodes shown in pantomme, with a pro- logue spoken by “Inspiration,” and three historic chapters and an epilologue spoken by History. All the movements of the individuals and groups were carefully worked out by the director of the rehearsals on fourteen charts before any rehearsal took place. Thus, the participants were easily placed in their proper place. The dress rehearsal was held on the garden grounds a few days previous to the public performance. One thousand feet of moving picture film was taken of the pageant. Although this was done in the after- noon without the color of the flood lights, the color schemes of the costumes themselves had been worked out so carefully that the effect was almost as pleasing as under the evening conditions. Neff: I understand you have a very difficult part in tfie Carnival.” Loretta: Difficult! Whv I don't open my mouth, Neff: “Well, that's difficult for you.” Shoe Salesman-: “How does that feel ?” Annie Marie: “Try a size smaller. I can bear a lot more pain than that.” One Hundred Twenty-seven RAMI HI N Carnival Phi Sigma Phi December 1, 1920 M No one cares to build castles, but every one knows that Phi Sigma Phi had the best show at the Carnival, anti when high class entertainment is con- sidered one would have to travel far to find anything that would equal that which was heard at The Super-Vaudeville. The entire show was prepared and presented by members of the Fra- ternity under the direction of Donald McNitt. Hardly enough credit can be given to Fitzgerald, Fitch and Collins for the treat they gave, when rare talent was shown in playing both classical and popular numbers. Dormitonj From the moment of the first announcement of “The Doll Show,” hearts of the carnival joy-makers gradually turned to the scenes of their child- hood days. So magnetic, so irresistible was the call of the little shop on the corner to those joy-makers, that at the first performance of the show the library was completely filled. The curtain went up and there before us was the oldtime l Doll Shop.” The keeper, the customers and dolls, all were in perfect reality and we were immediately taken back to our early days when we dreamed of that Christmas dolly that Santa might bring. That pretty liT ribbon doll, so dainty and so sweet, The wee liP baby doll, that talked, but had no feet. A funny liT rag doll, all black as black could be; And those clever, flirting vamp-dolls That seemed to say—“Splash-me!” Yes! there was a dancing doll Who bowed and danced when wound ; An’ a shining liP jack-in-the-box That the little girlie found. The Indian and Jap dolls were there for us to see. But last of all that French Doll; Now I ask, what more could there be? R iiiiimia rami k i n F acultij The Teacher .

Holden, Mr. Smith and Mr. IVilder Ft T HE faculty stunt deserves special treatment and a page bv itself, not a only because of the superior talent displayed, but also because no complete rehearsal of the intricate plot was ever held. It is even whispered that Air, Woodland did not conduct the performance “according to Hoyle” on either of the two occasions when the dark secrets of past academic experiences were disclosed to the cold and critical public eye. But it was appreciated by the audience—Bless you! They say Air. Brodie was under the Doctor’s care for high blood pressure the next day. Someone found a coat button of Mr. Hu bier’s under a cupboard in 211 and Mr. Tsai said the audience was packed “like a hill of sardines,” Miss Havens was “sore” because she wasn’t a member of the cast and even applied for appoint- ment desiring to lead in the traditional Iamb. But she and other aspirants for fame were shocked when they were gently but firmly told that a careful selection of the best talent on the faculty had been made for this initial per- formance of Dignity—incognito. But cheer up! There is a plan on foot whereby all the lesser lights may have the privilege of appearing another year. But what of the stunt? The stage presented to the admiring eyes of an awed and reverent audience the interior of a district school room. At the desk presided Mr. Woodland, resplendent in goggles and long-tailed coat with buttons big as cart wheels. Air. Yonkers, as Jeremiah Jenkins, appeared fresh from a fishing trip with the actual fish pole on his shoulder and the usual fish story. Samantha Piper went back in spirit to toothless Tom-boy days. She hadn’t forgotten the giggle, but she had forgotten how to properly and safely attach a handkerchief by means of a bent pin. Sim Dipsey had to detach himself from that pin as best he could on one occasion. But this is telling! Dorcas Doolittle—brave in short dress and pigtails tied primly— chewed gum and murdered English in a way that gratified the hearts and brought tears of understanding to the eyes of certain worthy sufferers in the One Hundred Twenty-nine audience. Mehitable was teacher’s pet and object of scorn for the whole school. Stephen Fucker sat on the dunce block and looked perfectly at home while Hobby O’Lee got into serious trouble by hooking an apple from the dinner pail of Susan Crowfoot. Long practice in past years is the only explanation for the perfection attained by Miss Putnam in facial contortions and gum gymnastics. She awakened sighs of wonder and envious admiration in the audience. And then Sally Brown, demure and sweet, led in an enlarged (to be modest) edition of a tiny brother by the name of Luther. We’re still wondering at the heroic self-control of this frightened babe as he haltingly repeated: “Scarce four years have rolled away, Since these little eyes first saw the day. These little hands no work can do: This little mind is feeble, too.” If there were any doubt about the relationship of Mrs. Snooks and Sammy, it was removed upon the public and spirited application of the maternal slipper in an effort to visit a recalcitrant memory. It worked beautifully! We must not forget Mr. Beadle in golden hair and modest sky blue draperies giving the specialty—“a little asketchic dancing,” as Mr. Perkins feelingly described it. By the way, everyone felt that the interest of the two school-committee-men in this event was altogether too natural to have been assumed simply for the occasion. Clii Delta Plii “Hello Central, give me R. A. M. 1.—1, 2, 3. “Hello, Jack, this is Betty. Fve been trying to get you for two hours. What has been the trouble?” “Sorry, Betty, but you see last night was Carnival night and I failed to hear “Big Ben” this morning.” “Yes, Jack, but I thought the Carnival was over at eleven o’clock.” “So the Carnival was, dear, but the crowning event came after regular closing hours-----” “IVhat do you mean?” “Now. Betty, don’t get angry. You couldn’t go, so I took one of the Dorm girls over to the Chi Delta Phi’s Midnight Frolic. Don’t faint! There were plenty of chaperons, a world of life, and such a crowd it was almost impossible to dance, yet we just couldn’t keep our feet still.” “That ‘shine’ orchestra ‘cut loose,’ and things moved pretty lively from eleven ’til one. Gee, Beth, a Chi Delta Phi party is a peppy affair, isn’t it? Do you know there was dancing in the halls because it was so crowded on the main floor.” “It was a jolly crowd, but I missed you. You must plan to be with me at next year’s Frolic.” “All right. Jack. I’m glad you enjoyed yourself, and I’ll try my best to be with you next year.” “Well, it is class time again, Betty, so I will ring oft. Sec you Wednes- day night? Alright, good bye,” One Hundred Thirty Senior As the music begins, the curtain parts and we see standing by a mile- stone, the Spirit of Yesterday, holding up in her hand the hour glass which showed that time waits for no man. The trumpet sounds and “Spring” dances in and around the mile-stone, beckoning to “Summer” as she dances. The Spirits greet each other and as they are gayest, they see “Autumn” with her golden brown tints slowly approaching. They strive to keep her away, but she is victorious and Spring and Summer die. When Autumn thinks she has full sway, Winter approaches, spreading her mantle of snow over the earth. Today enters and takes the hour glass from Yesterday, who tells him that opportunity knocks but once and if he will not accept this chance, oppor- tunity will go on to his neighbor never to return. America, majestic and powerful, enters, carrying a lighted torch to bid welcome to the Spirit of 1620. who brings with him Pilgrims and New Liberty. 1720 and George Wash- ington follow and with them Betsy Ross. Washington breaks the chains that bind New Liberty. 1820 brings Abraham Lincoln and the down-trodden black men. The soldiers who fought so gallantly for Liberty come with 1920 and raised the flags of many small nations. The Senior Carnival con- cluded with our National Anthem. Junior The Junior Show offered the spectators the pleasant diversion of looking into the past—first, by recalling their own play-days in a dusty attic, and then by visualizing three hundred years of history without resorting to school books. We all have a bit of sentiment for historic scenes, if we can find them apa t from American history manuals. History from 1620 to 1920 was alive, when the belles of former days lived again upon the stage. The Junior stunt was called a Fashion Show, hut the entertainment presented much more than antiquated and modern styles; art and poetry, music and happy associa- tions. “Isn’t she just like grandmother’s picture! was the whispered exclama- tions which greeted the girl of 1860. The grogram commenced with a descriptive prologue in verse, after which two favorites, the Misses Barbara and Betty Farnum crept into the dimly lit garret which occupied the left of the stage, and discarded their dolls for the more fascinating contents of old trunks. Amid faded costumes, spinning-wheel and cobwebs, the children fell into dreams of bygone days. The audience must have followed them to dreamland, for soon the curtain at the right parted, disclosing first a Puritan maid of 1620. A group of girls representing periods of dress from hoop-skirts and bustles to the latest models of 1920 posed in turn. Beautiful costumes, together with the lighting-effects, appropriate music and the serious study given to detail, contributed to the charm and success which belonged to the Junior program One Hundred Thirty-one Freshmen One of the features of the Carnival was the circus given by the Freshmen Class under the direction of W. A. Case, a member of the class. The class is to be commended on the selection they made to direct their show, as it took the genius of a P. F. Farnum to conceive the acts which were staged. One feature that attracted a great deal of attention was the fortune teller, Madam Emma, who wore the official robes of her profession. The act, which occupied the middle of the room, was called, Hudinni, the art of freeing himself after being tied by several knots. The Australian dancers proved very amu ang. The bear in the act seemed to have no end of accomplishments to his credit. The clowns brought out the smiles of the audience. In a small space ten by ten feet, a number of the world’s wonders. Cook’s World Tones were shown. Among them were the famous Pyramids, Yellowstone National Park, Horse- shoe Falls, Famous Swimming Match and the Lost Para-dise. The Show was a financial success. Federal Board The Federal Board Club will always feel proud when they recall the fact that the Federal Board Club won first place at the Carnival held on the evening of December 1, 1920. They staged a vaudeville show and considering the fact that none of the men had ever had an)- professional experience, the results obtained were remarkable. The show opened with a wrestling match between Louie Donnelly and Huff, the latter winning. Pepper boxed with three opponents, Jones, Stern and Brown. Turner gave a sermon in imitation of a colored prayer meeting. The final number was a song by Pat Lester and Roy Jones. They sang “At the Chocolate Bon Bon Ball.” Roy Jones sang “Tired of Me” and Pat Lester sang a song named “That Wonderful Kid from Madrid” as the final number. Y. W. C. A. As all women are noted for their vanity and fondness for having their pictures taken, the Y. W. C. A. decided to take advantage of this at the Carnival. With a large supply of paper, scissors and paste, they set out to entrap the vainer sex and perhaps some of the sterner sex. The theory that women com- prise the vainer sex was exploded, however; for, strange as it may seem, the girls who welded the scissors found quite as many neckties to cut as ear puffs. In fact, to be perfectly frank, it was found that men are quite as fond of having their silhouette made as the girls. Many queer profiles were cap- tured, but some of the fault was with the ‘silhouettives.’ ” One Hundred Thirty-two UlIDinOHB R A M 1 K I N Pay Day 1920 ' m HE entire plant of the Institute was probably the most deserted spot M in Rochester on Wednesday afternoon and evening, May 19, 1920. I he office and the library were locked tight; all the plaster casts in the process of making in the Bevier Building were shrouded with damp clothes; the kitchens in the Plymouth Avenue building were all in order, but not a single trim figure was seen bending over the stoves preparing some new sort of dish. The reason was that this day was the annual “Pay Day of the students. They had worked hard and conscientiously all winter and spring, and for these well directed efforts they were paid a whole afternoon and evening of unalloyed pleasure. At one o’clock everybody connected with the Institute just naturally deserted the buildings. Students, instructers, office assistants, office boy, librarians, janitors—all of them boarded the chartered cars at 1 P. M. and went off to Manitou Beach. About five hundred made the trip. The first event to be run off was the ball game between the men of Mechanics and students of the Rochester School of Optometry. At the end of the fifth inning the Mechanics boys were leading with a score of 5 to 1, but rain put an end to the hostilities. Because of this same rain the game between the Mechanics Reserves and the former soldiers, who are now Federal Board students, was given up. The rain, however, did not spoil the day. Everyone crowded into the dancing pavilion and a makeshift orchestra was ft und among the student body to play until the regular orchestra came at dinner time. Around six o’clock dinner was served, after which there was dancing until eleven o’clock, when the last of the special cars left the beach for the city. Arrangements for the picnic were in charge of a committee of which M iss Julia Kervin was chairman. She was assisted by Miss Bessie (Milliard and Dean Johns of the the faculty, Arthur Melville, Betty Bloomquist, Isabel Smith, Doris Mason, Milard Koons and Herbert Headle. M. C. K.( '20.

S. 0. are still talking about the basketball game and dance extraordinary that was held on Monday evening, March 14th, at Genesee Roller Rink. The evening’s entertain- ment was under auspices of Phi Sigma Phi and Chi Delta Phi fraternities and basketball teams representing these two organizations played for the fraternal championship of Mech anics . Institute. Phi Sigma Phi won the contest 16 to n. The following is the 1 ine-up and score of the game: FG FT T FG FT T Engel, L. F. I 2 4 Sbindell, R. F I 0 2 Fitch, R. F. 1 0 2 O’Connell, R.

Immediately after the game dancing started. The first thing on the varied program was the grand march. During the march novelty hats were distributed to everyone. The prize fox trot which followed shortly after drew many couples to the large floor. After everyone had danced past the stand containing the judges, twelve couples were asked to remain on the floor. Each of thse couples then danced and the one that received the most applause was to be judged winner. Of these four couples Millard Van Orden and his partner Miss Edith Ackerly were proclaimed the winners and were pre- sented with the prizes. Mr. Gilbert made the presentation. The moonlight waltz and fox trot that took place at midnight was one of the biggest novelties of the evening. The spotlight throwing beams various colored light over the large crowd formed a most pleasing picture to those who did not participate. At 12:30 o’clock the grand finale took place and will probably be long remembered who all who remained to take part. At this time confetti and colored streamers were thrown by all. The music for the occasion was pronounced by all to be the best ever heard at any M. E party and was furnished by the Melville-Baucr Five Melody Makers. The two fraternities, Phi Sigma Phi and Chi Delta Phi, acted as hosts to the entire student bodies of M. I. and R. S. O., and nearly all the respective students responded as their guests. The following committee was in charge of the affair: Millard C, Koons was general chairman and was assisted by Neff, Gallagher and Marsh from Phi Sigma Phi and Voght, Myers and Sampson from Chi Delta Pld.

A R ET N ORTO N President Sophomore Junior History A momentous day in the history of Rochester Athenaeum and Mechanics Institute was September 8, 1919, for on this day the members of the joint class of 1922 and 1923 entered its portals. During our “Frosh Days,” despite the fact that we were green and shy, we gained experience and knowl- edge. Upon re-entering the school in September, 1920, we were wiser and better prepared for our work and play. It is true that as Freshmen we were not well organized, but our records show that the union of the two classes into what is known as the Sophmore-Junior Class only goes to prove the old maxim, “In union there is strength.” Although the class as a whole is studious, we believe in a well-rounded education and so take our place in the athletic and social activities of school.

Conspicuous among the body for their quiet and unassuming manner were the students know as Freshmen. They had been in the school about two weeks when they were called together by the President of the Students Council for the purpose of organizing and electing officers. The following week the officers were installed. The faculty then arranged a reception and dance in honor of the new students and a good time was enjoyed by all. The next week was what is known as “Freshmen Week.” The girls appeared in the corridors with their cute green bibs and tuckers. The President of the Junior Class soon ordered the men of the Freshmen Class to wear yellow ribbons and issued a firm set of rules. Two weeks of intense agony followed before the unsophisticated Frosh. There are four men in the class who are now on the track team who obtained their early training by breaking the rules and getting an automobile ride, hut returned from the ride on foot. The return trip was made without shoes. At last came the day when yellow ribbons were discarded and the front door could he used. Then the joy of joys, the upper classmen deigned to notice the youngsters. The next event was the Annual Carnival and, of course, the Freshmen put on a circus. An informal dance given at the Bevier Hall by the Fresh- men Class was a huge success. The music, novelty effects and decorations were praised by the most critical. Our biggest joy is that next year we help initiate the unsuspecting Frosh. Freshmen Household Arts and Science Edith Ackerly . Dorothy Atterbury Winxifred Burch .

As 1 hovered over the Dormitory. I penned the futures of all the girls and E hope, dear Readers, you take this record in the same kind way in which I am giving it. As usual, Annie Klouse was the first girl to appear before me as I gazed into my mysterious, mythical crystal ball. There will he much gay music, loud laughter, dance halls and Anti-Blue Laws in store for you. Ethel Crosier will always be a staunch supporter of early morning rising and will lecture all over the world. I see Dorothy Hurd in my crystal as a grand opera singer and singing all the most difficult parts with ease. Margaret Willis has a brilliant future with George. Alas, for poor Virginia Potter, your life will be one of rush and hurry to the end of your days on earth. Always being confronted with an unpalatable menu is the fate of Harriet Pierson. And you, Irene Litchard will take up the burdens of advocating for the Blue Law when once your unquenchable desire for dancing is ended. The lifelong agency for frat pins will be the lot of Dorothy Dann. Maude Cole will continue her art by advertising for “Pep Pills for Peplcss People.” Ah! I see a very neat and prosperous Tea Room with Madeline Johnson as manager. Hildegard, stick to your art, some day you will be the artist and the homemaker you wish to he. Much color In the crystal tells me that you will be a color expert, Winifred Burch. A second Beatrice Fairbanks is to be found in you, Zetha Fui leger. Irene Dillenbeek, your lot is a successful teacher of Domestic Science at Cornell University. That chicken clucking laughter of yours now will develop into a cackle as you grow older, Edith Ackerly. Betty Mifflin will always be surrounded by a bunch of backward children teaching them how to study. Beth Longshore, you will be replacing Nazinomova on the screen. Anita Dodge will spend her entire life seeking another twin. Geraldine Harris, yours will be a life on the briny deep with your naval hero. Margaret Co wing’s hopes will be realized in a lea Room, where she will meet her “Romance.” Bernice Jeffry, you will be as noted as your relative in the ring, but you will he a popular grace to the Follies. Habits acquired in one’s youth always stick to one; this probally accounts for Ruth Short as a Pawn Shop merchant, borrowing and seldom lending. Doris Baltzel will be a successful magazine illustrator. A savage sort of a disposition will add to your happiness, Ade- laide Vincent. Irene Boosted, I see you all settled in the “Love Nest,” in Ashville, N. Y. The Tea Room with the title Mrs. eventually will be your fate, Mildred Skinner. Your fondness for Biology will be the cause of your brilliant career as a Botanist, Gladys Cole, and later Miss Riker’s assistant. I see two famous record-holding walkers. Ah! they are Claude Wells and Helen Crone. They will walk across the continent. Florence English, I One Hundred Fifty-eight sec you as a chief employee of the Victor Talking Machine Co. Gladys Colcord, a world known dietitian, will win her way into the 'Heart World” through a dietary. A liesurclv, easy, restful life will be yours, Virginia Willard. A Salvation Army lass is seen in my crystal ball and she is no other than Ursla Smith,—your life will he a happy one and your wish for a man who is tall, good looking, has money, a high power car, dark hair and dances like a fiend will be granted. Abbie Stone as a missionary spread- ing sunshine is a dim picture in my crystal ball. Gafteria Management in South America will be your future, Anna Marie Combs. Marjorie Hutchinson, a bright domestic future is in store for you in a suburb of Rochester, Fate is kind to yo, Margaret Norton; your untiring efforts to become more robust will be realized, due to cocoa-butter and malted milk tablets and even to the degree that a position with Barn urn and Bailey and Ringling Brothers will be offered, but the five washings a week will keep you physically fit and ready to enjoy movies every Saturday afternoon with your husband. Vivian Nason, your wish to do practical nursing for all your former room-mates will be realized. 1 see a fast game of baseball. Ah! it is the Bloomer girls and Margaret Allison is playing the part of a second Babe Ruth. My crystal says you hold the record for swiftness. A busy domestic scene appears in my crystal and 1 find it is the suburban home of little Frances Crandall—jour husband will be a “Fur-lined Cuff Link” salesman in the vicinity of Pittsburgh. Louise Morrow, I see settled at last in Utah. The reform wave will catch Mary Porter in its clutches and right the world eventually. Art Schools in New York City and Paris will claim you, Lucille McGowan, for their faculty. Pis a stone house, planned by Architect Stone and Madelyn Banks reigning supreme, and thorough in the household and rosy clouds of happiness cover this scene in my crystal. Tossed about by fickle fate, Georgia Milhan is at last caught in the net with a Moth (Mauthe) and the spider of contentment will embrace you both. Grace Peck will have all her good natured wishes. 1 see a Jester and much cleverness in my crystal ball. Ah! it is no other than Doris Potter—you will be touring the country with your own violinist and will be known by all as the most popular American amuser. Mary Buckley is an understudy of Miss Benedict, but alas your chief hobbies will always be dancing and men, Mary. 1 see dancing on the stage—why, to be sure it is Kathleen Jennings with her former dancing professor, G. Bailey. 1 see Elizabeth Bellinger finding some man who really has no faults. 1 he Geneva Scandal Sheet will thrive under the editorship of Mary Kennedy, I have a vision of many prayer books, hymnals, and as the mist clears, I find that Ruth Cathcart is the successful traveling evangelist I saw among these pray er books, but as the vision fades a deck of cards is left to impress a meaning upon our minds. This shows us everything is not as it seems at first. Alice Lawton is one of the President’s Cabinet in Washington and those ambitions will he realized, Alice. 1 see several schools with admirers near each school and through the haze I see Phyllis Scott who is very contented with practicing her Domestic Science in a suburb of Hornell. Through a bright ray of light a nurse is seen and this nurse is sewing on her trousseau and as she appears before Miss Duntz to have her sewing inspected I find it is Elizabeth McCuaig. As this bright light still remains, I observe another form and Katherine Case in all earnest- ness and not failing is teaching sewing in New York City with a degree of Mrs. to be granted eventually. I see the mystic number eight. L cannot One Hundred Fifty-nine tell exactly what the number has to do with Larry Minister, but it does mean happiness, her dreams come true and a house filled with works of art. A great display of clothing almost looking like a store is to be seen in my crystal and as the scene grows clearer I visualize Isabelle Warner a mer- chants wife and an active club woman of this vicinity always at liberty to make time fly with greater ease. Eula Dillingham, your life will be crowned with much success in school teaching near Hamilton College.

After due deliberation, the manager of the various lithographic establish- ments came to the conclusion that the best and only way to accomplish this would be by forming a class of Lithography, and the owners of the lithographic firms having decided to finance such a class, a department for teaching Lithographic Art has been established in our Mechanics Institute. The course taught will follow along the lines of similar institutions in Europe, where the artist receives a complete training in Drawing, including Perspective, Geome- try, Water-color Painting, Color Harmony, Drawing on stone with pen and crayon, a full instruction in Photo-litho work, retouching of positives and negatives. A special class for the teaching of proofing, transferring and print- ing has been formed and a hand press installed to give the young men an opportunity to learn the process of etching a stone and the subsequent treat- ment of it.

It influences many things, promotes school spirit, is a written record of school activities, gives the students’ views to the outside world. A paper is only a school paper when it accomplishes these things. In the year of 1909, our schcol published its first paper called “The Breeze,” which was in the form of a class report. It contained the pictures of students and the reports of all school affairs. The one great drawback was that this paper was not allowed to print advertisements and so was not a financial success, and because of poor printing it was a failure. Later, in 1910, a new paper, ‘‘The Athenaeum,” was printed which proved a great success. This was printed for a period of three years. Later, “The Question” was printed by the students, and although hampered by the lack of funds, it was very good. “The Siren,” the present publication of Mechanics Institute, was pub- lished in October, 1919. This paper was hindered by its inability to get funds and advertisements. In spite of these difficulties, it was printed every month on schedule time, Jt has been the custom heretofore for the Students Council to appoint the editor-in-chief and the business manager and have them appoint their staff. This method was satisfactory, for it can be truthfully said that “The Siren” that is being published this year is the best paper the school has ever published.

Culver The Student Council is the official governing board of the Students’ Association. Its members arc elected annually from the different departments in the school and regulate all student activities. In previous years the Students’ Association fee of one dollar was the only means of insuring the finances of the Association. This year a new plan has been tried and so far has worked out most successfully. A fee of four dollars per term was paid at the time of registration. With the payment of tin's fee the student automatically becomes a member of the Students’ Asso- ciation and is entitled to free admission to all athletic contests, also a free copy of the school paper. Noon dances are held once a week in the girl’s gymnasium and are the source of enjoyment and better acquaintance of all the students. The Council has been able to equip and support the athletic teams much better this year and have in turn been rewarded by increased interest in school activities as well as general school spirit. This year’s Council has aimed to carry on the work of former Councils and develop efficiency of student government. Our biggest reward comes from the development of school spirit and hearty co-operation in all departmen ts.

It is only the girls in the Dormitory, however, who are really aware of their membership in any such organization. In other words, the W omen's League is composed of a number of girls who are chosen by the Student Body to co-operate with them in maintaining a high standard of conduct at Mechanics.” During the first week of school, the Freshmen were duly adopted by Senior Mothers whose duty it was to help them get acquainted with the girls and also the customs of M. L Earl; in the year there was a meeting of all girls, at which time they were made familiar with the rules and regulations under which they were to live for the ensuing forty weeks. The Executive Board has met with Miss Gillard regularly to discuss matters of importance which have arisen concerning League or House prob- lems. The chaperoning also comes under the League’s jurisdiction. The League has not gone out for “high society this year as much as in former years—but that does not necessarily mean that its officers are the ogres that some of the girls seem to think them.

From what might be considered a social standpoint, much enjoyment and benefit has been derived from the Sunday Evening social hours at the Dormitory. The girls have entered into the spirit of these meetings and have appreciated the informal talks by various people. We hope the idea will become firmly fixed in the minds of the girls and that we may continue these gatherings. Social Service Work about the city has also entered into the year’s work to a considerable extent. Speakers from Rochester and other cities have spoken at the Girls’ Assemblies on the many sides of the social service work. Much life and enthusiasm was brought back by our delegates from the WelPs Conference. It has been planned to send delegates to the Silver Bay Conference again this year. These conferences give each organization many valuable ideas for the coming year in all phases of their work. It is to be hoped that next year the Y. W. C.

Previous to the opening of school in September, electricity was installed, the pool table rebuilt, and lockers placed in the basement. Through the personal work of some of the men there are two punching bag platforms ready and in use. Plans are now under way to install shower baths in the basement so that the men wrestling, boxing, or using the bags, can add a complete finish to their period of exercise. The house was reserved several nights during the year for the Federal Board men. The first of these meetings was held Friday night, October L The meetings that were started in October and continued every Wed- nesday evening throughout the year were one of the features. These meetings were in the nature of “straight from the shoulder talks” and were most interesting as well as educational. Mr. Irvin Shutt, Attorney; Mr. W. J. Fuller, of the Marks and Fuller Company; Mr. Charles Evans, of Foster and Evans, Architects, and Rev. Clinton Wunder are a few of the men that delivered these addresses to the men. Several Women Auxiliary clubs of the city have helped to make the M. I. C. A. more homelike. Every man registered in the Institute is considered a member of the M. I. C. A. and has the full use of the house. Millard C. Koons, general secretary, is in charge of the house and is always ready to assist the men in any way possible.

Starting with a membership of twenty-six, it has grown to one-hundred ninety members in Mechanics, with two branch organizations located at the Rochester Business Institute and Rochester Shop School. The primary object of the club is the advancement of the Federal Board studnt along mental and physical lines. Considerable work was done by the Welfare Committee, visiting the sick and helping to brighten their confinement at the hospitals. The social side provided enjoyable diversions through the year. At the opening of the Fall term, a dance was held in Bevier Hall. It was a great success. Later two more dances were held, one at the Masonic Temple and one at the R. B. I. Hall. Several smokers and good fellow- ship gatherings were held at the M. I. C. A. House. All these affairs were well attended and the men feel that much benefit and enjoyment has been obtained, thus accomplishing their purpose in organizing. Members Blush, John J. Brown, Leo G.

Next in order was the Club's anniversary hike over the beautiful Indian Trail, on Armistice Day. There were other events since, hut the next one of importance was when twenty Ewakers took a jaunt over Pinnacle Ridge and returning to the Nurses Club on Goodman Street were royally entertained by Miss Lena Wessell, our chaperone. Then came a stroll along the banks of the stream through the picturesque Corbett's Glen; a trip through the famous Dug-way; a dog- roast at BushnelFs Basin and a tour of the lake shore around Summer- ville, Charlotte, and Durand Eastman Park. There were also evening events of note, including a feed given by the boys of the club at the Phi Sigma Phi Fraternity Home, and one by the girls at the Dormitory. Miss Fern Fuller later entertained the Ewalter’s in good style at her home. There is one event, however, that will always remain as a pleasant spot in the memory of those who were able to break away from “Old Man Work for a day, and take in that wonderful hike from Sea Breeze along the eastern bank of Irondequoit Bay through “Inspiration Point” and on to the Power House. It was a day of ups and downs over the hills and dales of the irregular shore line Much gratitude is due Mr H Martin, who acted as guide on that day, and who also has shown much interest in the Ewakers The Ewak Club is unitjue in that it is an organization for outdoor sports to which both boys and girls may belong. It is a source of great pleasure besides the good healthful exercise obtained. The membership has more than doubled during (he past year which is a good indication that it will be a permanent organization at Mechanics.

I, this year is the school orchestra that was organized in the early part of the year by “Pat” Lester, who leads with his banjo-guitar. They played at the majority of the assemblies throughout the year and also at several of the noon dances. Besides Mr. Lester, the following artists complete these melody makers: Mildred Post, piano; Frank Kuss, Louis Yanero and Allen Smith, violins; Alfred Ellis, cornet; Carl Flinchbaugh, saxaphone; Louis Flinchbaugh, clarinet, and Edgar Phillips, drums. Ike Midnight Serenades It was a balmy spring night and the girls in the dormitory were settling down for a long night’s sleep. The lights, one by one, were put out until the “Dorm” was in absolute darkness. It had been quiet for some time when a faint sound was heard in the distance. As it drew nearer the girls slowly regained consciousness and realized that it was Pat Lester and Blanchett. The latter with the violin, and the former was singing. Presently at each window could be seen tousled heads. Many songs were applauded until “Good Night, Ladies closed the serenade and the sleepy girls returned to their slumber. This was not the first serenade to the “Dorm Girls” nor, we hope, the last. The absent-minded colonel beckoned to his orderly. Smith, I wish you’d ride into the town and get the correct time. “Whv( sir,’’ Smith hesitated, 'I haven't got a watch.” A watch! a watch!” the colonel roared. ■'What in the name of sense do you want a watch for? Write it down on a piece of paper, man,” Helen: “How did you come out with your ads. today?” Neff: f,T got two orders in one place.” Helen: Good! What were they?” Neff: One to get out, the other to keep out.” Betty: How do you feel?” Red: “Like a sewing machine.” Betty: ’ How’s that?” Rf.o: ‘‘Oh, so-so.” A Moving Appeal-— Has Williams ever paid you that fifty cents he borrowed ?” “No, said Smith.” he hasn’t done so, but I cherish no ill-will toward Williams on that account. Anybody who can reg- ister as much gratitude as Williams did when I loaned him that fifty cents is wel- come to keep it six months longer.” One Hundred Ninety Art League THE Rochester Art League was formed at Mechanics Institute by a small group of students and professional artists who sought to organize a society that would band together the students of the fine arts, and work for the perpetuation of the high ideals of art formed in the classroom and lecture-room. For several years this organization was very successful and much interest was displayed in its activities by the students and the pro- fessional artists who were affiliated with it. The Art League Costume Ball was an annual “event” at Mechanics and was attended by many well known professionals and laymen. Gradually there came a breach in the ranks of the league and the members drifted apart, forming a new organization which was called the Rochester Art Club, composed almost wholly of professionals. For a time the Rochester Art League ceased to function and there was no organization among the students of the fine arts department. Today the Rochester Art League is stronger than ever, due to the loyal efforts of those who saw that such an organization was essential and who strove to re-organize the league into a permanent society that would continue to benefit the mem- bers after they had graduated and entered into professional work. The present membership of the R. A. L. is 75 members and 3 honorary members. The officers are: President, Milton Bond; Roy Miller officiates as Secretary and Treasurer; Thelma Knapp, Recording Secretary. 7N September, a 'dog roast” was held in Bevier Hall at which Dorothy Smith presided. The entertainment was characterized by “beaucoup eats,” plenty of fun and the warbling of Winters, Donald, Saxton and Livingston. During September an assembly was held in Bevier Hall, at which Mr. Farnum addressed the League and asked for the co-operation of its members. October 7th was the occasion of the initiation of the Freshmen. It was some initiation. Blindfolded, hand in hand, the shuddering novices wended their way through the corridors of the Bevier and Eastman buildings to emerge into the light of day and the gaze of the interested public on Plymouth Avenue, from whence they were led by torturious route hack to the Bevier building and put through a series of stunts that made the bravest among them grow pale with fear. After the “goats” had been properly ridden to the satisfaction of the “powers that be,” the novices were led to the hall where a dainty feast was spread and no time was lost in “turning to.” Speeches were made by the new members, the faculty and some of the “old- timers” addressed a few remarks to the assemblage. The floor was then cleared for dancing and all hands made merry until “Home Sweet Home” on the piano reminded them that the hour to depart had arrived. October 18th, the League was the guest of Mr. Chapin at an organ recital at his home. November 4th, Miss Madge Kennedy, popular star of the film world, who deserted her paints and pallets for the glare of the “Coopernewitts,” was the guest of the League and tea was served in her honor in the Reception Room. One Hundred Ninety-one RAM I K 1 lllllliliiiliilitlilil October—A Hallowe’en Party was given by the League and prizes were awarded for the most original costumes. All the costumes were cleverly designed and everybody joined in the spirit of the affair. November 8th, Jonas Lie, celebrated American artist, addressed the League. In December, Professor Frank Von Der Laneken addressed the League at a supper held in the Reception Room. On November 25th, a Thanksgiving Party was held in the Reception Room and all students remaining in town over the holidays were invited. All enjoyed a pleasant evening. During December a Christmas Party was held in the Bevier Building. “Scotty” played Santa Claus and Milton Bond recited. Pat Lester and his orchestra furnished the music. In January, Mr. Hermit Cook, of Chicago Art Institute, spoke at an assembly in Bevier Hall. On January 13th, a musicale was given in the Reception Room by a trio from the University of Rochester, who played tor us through the courtesy of Professor Von Der Laneken. January—Mr. Claude Fayette Bragdon addressed the League and exhibited sketches. In February, the League was entertained at the residence of Mr. Chapin. In March, an Easter Sale was held and an Art Exhibition. A minister was horrified one Sunday to see a hoy in the gallery of the church pelting his hearers in the pews below with horse chestnuts. As the good man looked up the hoy cried out: ‘ 'You tend to your preaching mister, I’ll keep them awake!” Mama (to Mr. Taylor, as she is enter- ing Willie) : “Dear little Willie is such a delicate little fellow! Now if he is ever naughty, just whip the boy next to him and that will frighten him into heing good.” Harold Clark informed the class that airships are made short so they can turn corners more easily. Frank Kuss informed the Tech. Math, class that if we use a plus sign we ll come out with a longer leg. Although lien Mcltzer got he is sure that no matter how you add them, you always get zero. On© Hundred Ninety-two iiiiiiiiiniMiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiifiiiiii TUS MWiV One Hundred Ninety-four Phi Sigma Phi (Local) Founded in 1901 With the passing of 1921 it can be said that History repeats itself, and the members of Phi Sigma Phi can remember this as the year of years. A precedent has been established whereby a scholastic standing of merit is the goal in view. To create a spirit of friendly rivalry, a loving cup, known as “The Interfraternal Trophy,” was presented to the school by Phi Sigma Phi. This Trophy is to be held one year by the Fraternity having the highest scholastic standing. However, a certain amount of social activities is always in order, and there have been numerous dances and basket ball games to enliven the general routine of school life. Fratres 1291 Joseph T.

Uhi JJel ta I hi (Local) Founded 1914 Late last year old Chi Phi became incorporated under the laws of New York State, and took the name of Chi Delta Phi; the Delta being the original name ot the Fraternity. That year was given over to re-organization and recovery from the dormant condition resulting from the war. This year has been devoted to the completion and solidifying of the organization and Chi Delta Phi may point with pride to the year 1920-1921 as the greatest in its history. Definite steps toward the occupation of a Frat House have been taken and it is hoped to have the members well housed by the opening of school in September. The Fraternity has been prominent in social affairs, having held its own annual banquet beside the annual Chapter Party, and the Midnight Frolic in connection with the Carnival. The Inter-fraternal banquet held on March eighth was well attended and Mu Delta Pi, the new fraternity at M. 1. was duly welcomed to the affair. The Scholarship standards set at the beginning of the second semester have considerably elevated the already high standing of the members and there is little doubt as to the Inter-fraternal cup eventually becoming the property of Chi Delta Phi.

Mansfield.................................Captain Olin West...........................................Manager Jack Forsythe........................................ Coach In this month of graduates, it may seem like a far cry back to the foot- ball season of 1920, but who will forget the days we trudged out to the field for practice. It was a great season and one of which Mechanics Institute may well be proud. It started none too auspiciously and it was not until the middle of the season that a winning streak was developed. When this habit of winning was established it was a mighty positive force and the team that represented M. I. at the close of the season would have been worthy of a much larger institution. The season opened with a 56 to 0 defeat by the Syracuse Freshmen. We defeated Starkey 20 to 0. The following week Conesus College defeated us 54 to 0. St. John’s Military Academy defeated us 7 to 0. The R. S. O. played us and the score was 0 to 0. Arthur Blanchett has been elected Captain of the 1921 team and we feel certain that he will be a capable leader of the best team M. I. has ever had.

Shindell ............................Captain Austin Nichols................................Manager Harold J. Rrodie......................Faculty Manager Dean A. A. Johns.....................Athletic Advisor A. McGrain......................................Coach The major sport at Mechanics Institute is basketball and this season we have gained over the past in many different ways. Although Mechanics won only four games this year, wc gained one de- cisive victory hv beating Syracuse Freshmen in one of the best games of the year. One feature which proved itself a successs was the playing of games at Genesee Roller Rink with dancing following each game. As for the spirit, Mechanics has a chance for improvement as only about one-half of the student body supported the team, but those that did show support, showed it well. Captain Shindell “Chick” worked hard towards the success of the team, but after the first few games was forced to stop taking an active part on account of his injuries. Riggs, “EdA played a wonderful game, but like Shindell he was forced to stop after playing four games. In the Syracuse game he went in the last few minutes and won the game for M. I. with a sensational basket from the center of the court. Nichols, “Nick,” played as steady a game as any member of the team, scoring 128 points, and took part in every game played. Mansfield, “Hodv,” came out again for basketball this year as in years past and played a steady game throughout the season. As a guard he was right at home and his work prevented many a basket going to his opponents. Kurtz, “Red,” proved himself to he a real player and, though his first year at the game lie developed fast and took care of the center position in fine stvle. Sutter, “SuttA played a hard game at the forward position, scoring fifteen baskets and always played his man hard. The faster the game the better he liked it and never showed signs of being tired. Hanaa, “TomA took part in only eight games, but came through with twenty baskets to his credit. He always played hard and gave al! he had in the hopes of scoring a victory. Lewis only played in a few games, but showed up well and deserves a great deal of credit for the part he took in trying to make the team a success. Powers, Leisring and Green gave a lot to the team and fought hard for a regular berth and all three of them should make good next year. He: “Do you know that it is danger- ous when you smile? D. Smith: “No, why?” He: “Because, when a smile lights up your face it might touch off the powder,” Two Hu nil red Eleven RAMIKINi TRACK TEAM re ITOMIMM R A M I K I N Tmck For the first time in the history of Mechanics Institute, the year of 1920-21 saw an organized track team and from past performances and future expectations, it will be a major sport The track team was organized in the beginning of November, 1920, by Air II R. Childs, formerly of the track team of the University of Roch- ester, Mr. Childs coached the team throughout the year. The first acting manager was Julian Harris and the first acting captain was Claude Wells. 'Flic first event and the real trial of the track team was an inter-class meet between the Seniors and the Freshmen, The Seniors carried away the honors by many points. The next event was a cross-country run of two and one-half miles, held at the University of Rochester field between a num- ber of high school and manual training schools of upper New York State. Mechanics won fourth place. Mechanics entered a relay team in a mile relay race held at the New York State Armory in Rochester and in this event finished last in a field of three. This was primarily due to the short notice Coach Childs received of the event so he did not have time to properly train the men. On February 1, 1921, the track team met to elect officers for the coming Spring and also to arrange for the races in which they were entered for that season. At this meeting Julian Harris was elected manager and Vincent Brown was elected captain. The following is a list of the events in which the track team has entered this year. Indian Field Meet at the New York State Armory Mile Relay Race between Rochester Business Institute and Mechanics Institute—Indoor Meet. Mile Relay Race between East High School and Mechanics—Indoor Meet.

As things are now, we are doing the best we can with w hat we have. In the early fall regular gymnasium work was delayed because of the warm weather; however, each girl was required to make eighty points during the first six weeks of school. These points could be obtained in various ways: By walking a certain number of miles, by swimming, canoeing, riding, and by playing tennis. No definite teams were formed in any of these sports but all were popular. Basketball practice began in January and the girls showed much enthusi- asm. At the dose of the month of February, Miss 'Thelma Moffette, girls' gymnasium teacher, arranged certain games between the Home Economics and Fine Arts departments. The captains were chosen as follows: Dorothy Dann, for the Home Economics team, and Isabelle Daizell as captain of the Fine Arts team. The first game was played March 4, 1921, in the Mechanics Institute Assembly Hall. The line up was as follows: Fine Arts: 20 Home Economics: 31 Right Forward Esley ..................................

After vain efforts to pierce the mystic veil which surrounds the future, 1 naturally turned to dear old M.l. for assistance. 1 went from one depart- ment to another and finally sought the aid of the Optometry Department. They said they would put their heads together on the problem and this pair of glasses is the result of their efforts. No, they are not made of bone. With this wonderful pair of glasses, I am able to see the scroll of future years unroll before me like a Pathe Weekly, Swiftly the years from 1920 to 1930 roll by until my attention is particularly attracted by a large group of beautiful buildings surrounded by a spacious campus and athletic field. It is the new M.L—our president’s dream come true. I will read the titles of the various pictures which may interest you and trust to you to visualize them as [ have not glasses for all. The first view is of our old friend, Albert Rex, the new physical director of M.l. In looking over the scene. I notice Ellsworth Mack has at least finished his tea-wagon.

Having nothing better to do, the old gentleman approached and asked: “How many years have von been work- ing on the railroad, my good man?’' “Thirty-nine, sir,” replied the laborer still continuing his work. ‘ I supose you have had many varied experiences in your time—plenty of changes of occupations, I expect.” “No, sir: I’ve always had the same job. I’ve tapped the wheels of trains for tune and thirty years, sir.” “A long time, my man—-a very long time-—-and, if I may say' so, it shows a very steady reason for tapping the wheels? Why do they do it?” The man looked up, scratched his head and said: ‘I’ll be darned if ! know.” KNOW the flowers most suitable for dif- ferent occasions and will gladly advise you at any time.
