H. u i DEDICATIGN Out of a lifetime of selfisacrificing service and noble deeds he came to us determined that the Polytechnic should be his master strolce, the crowning effort of his career. His loftiness of purpose, supreme courage and Christ-like spirit have com- mended themselves to everyone con- nected with the Institution. With love and esteem we dedicate the 1916 Annual to Willis E. Lougee, the Poly's wise counsellor and loyal friend. PRESENTATION To gain fame and glory did not prompt us to edit this little volume. nor have we spent our time and ef- fort in this way in order to enrich our coffers. But with the hope that we might present to you something that in the Future will bring to you Fond memories of the Old Poly, We have collected and put in this little book what our judgment tells us might accomplish this purpose. And if in any degree, no matter how small, our. purpose is accomplished, we shall be repaid many, many times. 1 4 I: V ' n HALL LL BA D KIM AN MONS M CO SCOTT PRE X-, rgjg f L X m l 'AM' ' ' Flff, , 52: New f 'i a c'5'yQ,Qg,3Q , J F3 fN ' 55 f J is aig f' by i+fgajBsg3 I KJ L-' .I 1 -.1 , ,Astra . . . - - .: , ,N, . ,n, w The Polytechnicu What It Is Every institution must have an excuse for its existence. In this day and age when everything is measured by the practical, any object must be ready to state definitely the reason for its being and the purposes it serves in the world. This the Polytechnic is ever ready to do. The institution was born out of a great necessity eight years ago. Eastern Montana, Northern XVyoming, and the NVestern Dakotas at that time composed the largest territory in the United States without a school of higher learning, while a much larger region had no institution where a boy or girl could go and receive a practical training for life. The Billings Polytechnic Institute was established for the purpose of giving to every young person of the Northwest the opportunity of a useful education. As agriculture is at the very basis of the industrial life of this section of the country the Institute was planted on a 160 acre farm just outside the city limits of Billings, the industrial, commercial, and agricultural center of this neglected area. The courses of instruction cover a wide range and new ones are developed as demands are made for different lines of training. There is no limit to the development of a polytechnical institution. It permits the establishment of any course of instruction that is really needed. At the present time the following courses are offered. Practical Agriculture, Elementary Engineering, Business, Shorthand, Typewriting, Academic, Junior College, Teachers' College, Teachers Training, Indus- trial Arts, Domestic Science, and Music. Besides the regular courses there are offered many short courses and special subjects for those who can spend only a few months at the Institute. For instance a boy who wishes to spend only three months in school can take a review of the common branches: or put his entire time in the shop learning the use of carpen- ter's tools, or study automobiling or do a dozen other things of special value to himself. The Polytechnic is really a great practical university of the people standing with open doors to receive any person deserving a better pre- paration for life's duties. It is more than a school, it is a busy community with activities, industries, and life. Boys and girls learn here to do by doing. The regular school work of the class room is a very small part of the development offered at the Polytechnic. The students have their own government organized like a political stateg they do all the work about the schoolg they have their literary societies, debating clubs and musical organizations, they all take an active part in athletics and physical training. They live and work and play in this community strengthening both mind and body, and learning a great variety of things not ordinarily taught in school but of great value when they go out to be the active citizens of this Republic. The Polytechnic is no longer an experiment. It isa strong virile institution with a mighty purpose and a wonderful future before it. Al- ready it is attracting the attention of the modern educational world, some day it will be the very leader of the newer idea of training-education through industries and activities. -9..

The Polytechnic Church The church life in the Polytechnic Institute has been maintained during the year. Services have been held every Sunday, and a series of special evangelistic meetings were conducted by the Rev. George VVil- liams, president of Albion College. Illinois. From the opening of the year in the fall until February, the several pastors from Billings were in- vited to conduct theservices. ln February, Rev. Walter H. North of the Billings Congregational Church, was asked to assume the relation of pastor to the Polytechnic Church. Since that time the work of the church has been under his direction. At Easter time a very impressive Com- munion service was conducted and twenty-one persons became members of the church. The church put on an every member canvass and pro- vided for the expense of its maintainance. A more complete program is contemplated for the coming year. A stately, dignified, and impressive morning service will be combined with a Bible school under specially trained leaders. Plans for promoting mis- sionary and benevolent interests are already in mind. It is anticipated that in a short time the neighborhood homes will be reached by the Poly- technic Church and the parish greatly widened. The reach of the iniluence of the Polytechnic Church is inestimable. The church habits which the students acquire will react in the upbuilding and maintaining of the efficiency of many of the Home Missionary churches on the frontier.

Have you been in- terested in your work? Have you tried to get all out of the work you can or have you tried to get out of all tl1e work you can? Have you been intensely interested in some subject? Have you a desire to get a better understanding of this subject in a college or university if possible, but if this is impossible tand we doubt it in any casey are you going to use every other opportunity to pursue the study of that in which you now have an interest? Have you learned to feel at ease in the company of boys and girls of your own age? Have you abundant good health due to the habits of proper living, and are the habits and the ignorance which are not conducive to happy, healthy living repulsive to you? Have you outgrown the idea that an education offers an opportunity for an easier way of making a livingg and have you realized that an education means a greater work, a greater respon- sibility and a greater service? Has your education made you a better man among good men? Has it helped to make you kinder to all living things, has it brought you a step nearer your Maker? If it has done all of this or any of this it has paid. These questions perhaps bring vividly to our minds a few things that We should embody in our academic work. Education should not mean so many useless tasks which we must undergo for life's prepara- tion, rather it should mean life itself, for it is life. No longer do we say that we are fitting ourselves for such and such a profession or oc- cupation, but we do say we are living on a small scale the life which embodies the great and unknown future. Unless some great and unseen force enters our lives they will remain essentially the same in future years as during our school period. Then let us train ourselves in our chosen line of life in the manner we desire to go. The academic work here offers a splendid chance for such develop- ment. Good departments are maintained in all lines of workg in Math- ematics, in Latin and Germang in Chemistry and Physicsg in Domestic Artsg in Music, in History and English. In addition to these we have many other courses such as Sociology, Bookkeeping, Engineering, Man- ual Arts, Psychology, Agriculture, and practical Farming which high schools over the state cannot and do not offer. In this respect we are far ahead of them. Much has been accomplished toward the organization and development of all of the above departments during the past year and prospects seem to be even better for next year.

O. Kline. A very unique and original plan is used. There is a desk for each student in the Exchange. All desks have drawers in which the students keep their books and supplies. There are also lockers wherein the penmanship students may keep their paper and ink. On one side of the Exchange there are offices, each office representing a different firm. There is a Commercial Exchange, a Wholesale Company, and a Real Estate Company. On the the other side there is a Bank. YVhen the students have finished the preliminary work in Book- keeping, they are supplied with order pads, a check book, and journal, ledger, sales book, etc., which they themselves keep. They then borrow money from the Bank to start with and begin their actual business prac- tice. They buy and sell various forms of Merchandise, which are varied as students advance. The merchandise is represented by small cards. each card representing a certain kind and amount. Cards are also used to represent chattels and fixtures. The students have to make out all their own bills and orders, lease their stores, make out insurance policies and all legal papers. This gives them training in things that are usually hard for the average student in other courses to understand. In order that the students make regular profits they have two cards, one represent- ing the price of Merchandise at Wholesale and the other representing retail prices. This management also enables them to keep Within certain bounds and prevents them from selling at exhorbitant prices of their own. Every bill, order, check or anything of this kind has to be O. K.'d by Mr. Kline before being used. The books of each student must be in correct form, all transactions journalized and posted, trial balances corrected and books closed correctly at the end of each set. If all these items are correct the books are O. Kid and the student begins a new set CORNER OF BUSINESS EXCHANGE .-.27-. . 1 k N . 1' 'Y f,.t ' -.. . . 7.4, , r 2L Vl'gfY1F3-l'f,-,1y f- 1-afzf ff: '-:.w me -'. - ' fa Hi ww' '-:A Y.

Greater and greater grows the need of practical training for our girls. The students who enter the Polytechnic Institute have a higher aim in life than that of making a living-making a life, the work that God in- tended for them. The Training of Our Girls,--The average girl from the time she enters kindergarten until she matriculates at college, has been educated and trained along exactly the same lines as the boy. She is taught higher mathematics, history, German and the ideals of brave men, but the woman's share of quiet courage, patience, and home making is entirely overlooked. She can read Virgil and Caesar, although she cannot cook an egg or sew a seam. Finally, her education finished, she knows all about Political Economy and Mathematics, she can detect the short change by the grocer, but she does not know the first principle of House- hold Economy or Home Making. And it is infinitely more important that she should know the three H's, the three things that are her part in life's plan. Not that the classical training should be neglected, but she should be able to cook a meal with as much grace and skill as she can preside over a piano. God intended woman to be the home maker. Home means a resting place, the place where we find shelter. rest, comfort, and love after the trials of the day. The home should be artistic, beautiful, and restful-the atmosphere so full of love and kindness that no matter how far from it we wander, there will always be a longing in our hearts to return home, to the place where Mother is, and where our highest ideals of life are formed. The Training at the Polytechnic How We Cook,-This department is fully established, giving a three year course. The Domestic Science department at the Polytechnic gives the girl a well-rounded practical knowledge of cookery and all things pretaining to the comforts, welfare, and health of home and family. Household Economy, Household Decoration, Cookery, Serving of Meals, Entertaining, Food Values, Diet, Invalid Cookery, Home Nursing, Can- ning, Preserving, Pickling and the making of Jelly. Great importance should be given to Household Construction and Decoration. A thorough training in Household Economy enables the girl to decorate her home beautifully and artistically, so that it is restful to the nerves and pleasing to the eye, through design and color scheme, at the least possible cost. All work in this department at the Polytechnic is the most practical in all branches. From the orchard of three hundred bearing apple and plum trees, the young ladies of the Domestic Science class made 1900 glasses of jelly and canned hundreds of quarts of other fruits. They also used products of the gardens, canning vegetables, relishes, and pickles, all of which are used in the dining room. tContinued on Page 60,3 ..Qg..

Last spring the shop was without a floor and the tools were scat- tered over most of the campus. The room was minus a ceiling and the roof leaked, making it bad for the three machines then in the shop. The machines mentioned were a band-saw, jointer, and a home-made wood turning lathe. All of the benches tof which there were only fourj were composed of old boards nailed together in a reckless fashion. Since last spring the shop room has assumed a new and vastly better appearance. The floor is of good smooth concrete. It has a ceiling and the roof has been repaired. A new circular saw, with attached niortiser, has been added, in addition to a small supply of hand tools. Futhermore seven new work benches with hard maple tops are complete. The largest task attempted this year was to start making twenty solid oak tables for the new dining hall. Seven of these tables are nearly complete this spring. The outside work done by the boys has been of the most practical nature. A group of students completely framed and put in place all the iioor joists, rough flooring, and set the window frames in the new 320,000 dining hall. Furthermore, they framed and erected the heavy roof trusses which are of the scissors type, also the rafters along with part of the roof boarding. At this stage of construction the work had to be turned over to the carpenters because the completion of the building was desired before the students could have finished it. In addition to this, the students framed and erected Mr. Eaton's small bungalow besides doing all of the electrical wiring.

The world is realizing more fully each year that Engineering is com- ing to be the leading profession. The world is now in its Engineering age. Engineering at the Polytechnic has been hindered somewhat by the lack of equipment, although there is at present a first class manual training department, which helps us materially in many Engineering problems. We have high hopes for the future, as we have been promised ten thousand dollars with which to build and equip one wing of our shop during the present year. This wing, when completed, will contain a ma- chine shop, forge room, and gas and automobile repair shop. Practical work is taken up in the laboratory once each week. The subjects treated are those which lead up to the every day use of elec- tricity. During the fall the students wired three different buildings for electric lighting. Two dwelling houses erected by the Eatons and the Manual training shop. In wiring the shop, the students worked out the plan of lighting and figured out the bill for material, which was handed in for approval. They did the work with practically no supervision except that it was occasionally looked over by the instructor. Shortly after Christmas a class in the Operation and Repair of Auto- mobiles was organized. A small building was fitted up as a shop, and the parts of two cars purchased. The boys have shown a keen interest in the work and are confident that they will be able to build at least one auto out of the parts they have at their command. Excellent results have been accomplished by the students along the lines of mathematics and science, which are the fundamental require- ments of a good Engineer.

The Music department here is young, but it has made rapid strides in development which is sure and lasting. It provides for the study of Music as an element of general culture or as an accomplishment and, moreover, also maintains a Preparatory department for beginners of all ages. Such an education has reference not only to the ability to perform in an artistic and interesting manner, but concerns as well the compre- hensive appreciation and understanding of Music in all its aspects. It becomes increasingly necessary that the musician be other than a mere performerg that he have an intelligent conception of the material of Music and that he have a firm grasp of the fundamental artistic princi- ples. With the foundation of previous years the Piano department is now larger than it has ever been. The Voice department, too, has a good beginning. The different organizations have been of special interest this year. The first Glee Club of the Polytechnic was organized at the be- ginning of the year and through steady, conscientious work, has made several successful appearances in public. It is hoped that they will have a spring trip through the state of Montana. A male quartette and a ladies' quartette have likewise been organized and are doing good public Work. The Vesper choir meets once a Week besides singing every Sunday. af 1 ' 1, 5 M' ' f 4 I 1 1 , s .. I - I'-D 'N ' Z!

With its new grand pianos, spacious practice rooms, and large assembly hall-what will we not be able to do then? THE ORCHESTRA. We cannot praise too highly the untiring efforts of Mr. Thompson in his work with the Poly orchestra. From an infant organization of four instruments Ca violin, a flute, a horn and a pianoj in 1913, it has grown up into a full sized orchestra of twenty pieces. It has shown very unusual development this year and would be a credit to any institution.

Pyb- Polytechnic State STATE. OFFICERS The plan of the student government this year is somewhat different from any other we l1ave yet tried. We are still organized as a state with legislative, executive, and judicial departments, but changes have been made in the organization of these departments, to better meet the pre- vailing conditions at the school. Some of these changes we believe would be well worth considering even for our real states outside. The main dif- ferences are the Judicial Commission which takes the place of the or- dinary courts, and the Board of Final Decisions. The Judicial Commission is the only court we have and there is no appeal to another, although retrial may be had in some cases. This com- mission in a public session, investigates all phases of a case and in a closed session afterward decides the guilt of the accused person and the sentence, if any, he should have. We believe this commission, seeking the truth with an unprejudiced mind, far superior to the ordinary court with its two attorneys pitted against each other-each one in his blind determination that his side shall win, doing his utmost to keep out all testimony damaging to his side of the case even though it would lead to the truth's being known. When an offender of the state becomes too unruly he may be removed from citizenship by the Board of Final Decisions upon recommendation of the Judicial Commission. This action places the offender in the hands of the management of the school for expulsion or such action as they deem fit. If such persons are not expelled entirely by the directors, they may upon good behavior and consequent recommendation by the manage- ment be reinstated into citizenship by this board. The Board is composed of the Educational Director of the Billings Polytechnic Institute, the Governor, and the Chief Justice of the Judicial Commission. Among the other duties of the Board are the final signing or vetoing of all bills passed by our one-house, entirely-student legislature, and granting special . -31- H H ,W .. ..., -H ,, ,,,.. . .1 2 I I i 6 4 I x 1 ' 1 1 1 1 W 1 4 THE LEGISLATURE 1 '1 5 3 Q I .

Aside from the above, our plan of government is essentially like that or an ordinary state. We have found this plan to be very effective in maintaining order in the school and therefore our plan has attained the first goal of all government. But many plans of student government reach this point and still fail to reach the second and even greater goal of training for citizenship. We believe we have reached this next goal. Some may say that our present plan does not train for citizenship in that it breaks away from the order of things in our republic outside. But the question arises whether we should train citizens to believe in standing by the powers that be, whether they are for good or for evil, or to go forward in aiding reforms which must some day sweep our land and be for its betterment. Certainly we want to train a class who can see newer and better ways of doing things. Again let it be said that we have reached this greater goal. In our former plans of self-government we found some stumbling blocks which we have now removed. For instance, one plan took more of the officers' time than they felt could well be spared. In attempting to remedy this another plan created more offices and consequently we had a more complex system. But we found the plan to be so complex as to be unwieldy in a school of our size. But passing all this up as ancient history let us say that we now have a plan that Works. It works finely. It is based on experience. It is a plan that we are proud of, and a plan that though it might not meet the needs of all schools, or even of our school ten years hence, it is a plan to meet the prevailing conditions at Our School NOW, and it must develop to meet new conditions as the school itself develops and grows.

At the mid-winter election of officers, Alden Avent became presidentg Mr. Barnes was given the office of vice-president, and Mr. Box was relieved by Earl Beall in the capacity of secretary. Twenty boys were admitted to membership, giving the Pioneers an enrollment of thirty-four active members. Several new books of plays were purchased by the society. Nine regular private programs were rendered and one public entertainment given. Besides the regular literary work, several games of basketball, baseball and indoor baseball were played between teams chosen from the Pioneers and the Eagles leaving a few feathers in the hats of the Pioneer team, and none in the hats of the Eagles. The Aristo, Alpha and Eagle Literary Societies are the rivals and sometimes the allies of the Pioiieers. The four societies have a custom of giving a joint program during Commencement week. Plans are laid for the staging of Higby at Harvard at the close of this term. The whole school helps and is helped by these literary organizations. T40... Q-X .. za., , M.

We chose the American Eagle as our emblem and typifying as it does patriotism, constancy of purpose, and devotion to duty, so the members of the Eagle Literary Society have been loyal to their schoolg faithful to a high ideal and ever ready to respond when tasks were to be per- formed for the good of their organization. As the curtain is about to fall at the end of another year of school. we feel proud of the place we have held in our little Polytechnic World. The footprints upon the sands of time are plainly marked and easy for those who come after us to follow. May the members next year profit by our example and build grandly upon the foundations laid so faithfully and Well! When we called the roll of our membership last fall in the hazy dawn of this year it was with sorrow and almost despair that we found so many of our brothers missing. They had failed to return to the school and their vacant chairs made the outlook dismal indeed, but with the Eagles' characteristic optimism and true to the principle Quality and not quan- tity make an organization great, our ranks gradually fllled up.

Alpha Lz'te1'a1'y Society K ', -A-4, -S What's the matter with the Alphas? Why, nothing that anyone knows about except their ability to leave the other societies in the shade. This is the way it happened. Last fall when the societies were being lined up, there were only two Aristos left out of the old group and the prospects for new Aristo members was very poor. Consequently, Alphas took the Aristos into their society as affiliated members, with the privi- lege of holding offices. As it happened, one of the Aristos was a very capable girl and since the old Alpha president knew it,.she made it her business to get that girl elected as vice-president. To most of us she is known by the name of Sis, especially on the Poly campus. Things have certainly been booming for us all year and with such a start as the last term gave us, we expect to double our business during the rest of the year as well as during the fall of next year. The Alpha is the only society that can boast of giving a public pro- gram during the first semester and there are three societies, too. Don't you think we are a bright looking bunch? ...42.. 1 Qi.-.-,cfm V 1 ff 57, , X Arista Literary Society Aristos? Dead? Well we guess not! Just you watch them a little while and you will agree with us. On account of there being only two members of the society in school at the beginning of the year they decided that they would help the Alphas out a bit Cas they stood in need of aidj, so all the girls were taken into the Alpha society. However, they had the privilege of organizing into their own Aristo again when they desired. They did desire and in the spring reorganized the Aristo Literary Society and gave a public program April 22. They are all expecting to do great things next year and with this year's new members to boost, perhaps business will not be so booming for the Alphas. Come and visit us next fall. Look for our picture in the next year's Annual. Aristo Song fTune: Eli Yalej. 1. Who ranks tirst at the Polytech? A-R-I-S-T-O. When there's anything doing. we're always on deck, A-R-I-S-T-O.

Philip Willis The main purpose of the organization was to arouse some genuine German ginger and acquaint the members with German ideas in gen- eral, Only those who had had at least one year of German were eligible to membership. As a fee, each one paid a dime the Wednesday before each meeting which went into the fund to insure Heats. EATS! That's what was fine. They always tasted so good but had a tendency to ruin an otherwise keen appetite for the delicacies which we rushed to get im- mediately afterwards. How did we get our German spirit? Why, singing German songs Uimmer in Galop, playing German games and studying German art and history. Mind you, everything was strictly German-conversation and even the music in which one could hear the ch and g . Yes, and all know too well how painful it was to say anything-those German words just simply were not there. Well, experience iss a mighty gut teacher but a dear vun. However, the pleasure we had overbalanced those seemingly serious difficulties, and anyway they came only the first Fri- day of each month from four until six in the afternoon, which gave us an opportunity to brush up on those words we could not say the last time and also to learn How goes it. -44..

A. opened September 28 with 13 new members, but 13 is the lucky number for the Polytechnic, and so it has proved in the Y. VV. During the year we have had many outside visitors of whom we are very proud. The first ones were Mrs. Poindexter and Mrs. Cummings of Billings. who told of their trip to the Y. W. Conference of the North- west in Washington, and Miss Ferguson, who told many interesting things in the life of the Camp Fire Girls, to which organization she be- longs. November 2. The Y. W. and Y. M. were invited to the Chapel to hear Judge Goss. Ilis talk proved that he does much more than mere sight- seeing when he travels. Mrs. Penrose of Walla Walla College was also a visitor during the winter. Her tour of the states was in preparation for the Jubilee cele- bration of tl1e association. Miss Hopkins. our secretary of the Northwest Colleges, and Miss Stanton, one of the headquarters staff in New York City, have been with us. Miss Stanton told us a great deal about Miss Dodge, the National President of the Y. W., who died last winter, and of the work she has done. Dr. G. H. Williams, President of Albion College, Albion, Ill., being with the school for a series of meetings, the Y. W. service was turned over to him one Sunday evening. He spoke to the girls on the subject, She Hath Done What She Could. But the Poly members have not been idle all this time for many topics of interest have been brought up and discussed by them and as each member in turn has to lead in the meetings, the shy ones are obliged to come out of their corners and help in the good work. Some of the subjects which have been under discussion during the past year are: The VVomen of the Bibleg Women of Japan and the Missionaries, How to Spend Sunday Afternoons, Our Ideal of Womanhoodj' and What We Want the Y. W. to Mean Socially, Spiritually and Mentally. The National Silver Jubilee was recognized in a very unusual and unique meeting by serving a progressive supper Sunday evening, Febru- ary 6, at Kimball hall. The girls sang a processional and marched from one room to the next as the supper was served. Each wore a Y. W. C. A. banner and carried her cushion under her arm. The courses represented the four divisions of the Y. XV. work--College, City, Country, Foreign- and five-minute readings pertaining to these different phases were given at the beginning of each course. The girls had a most delightful eve- ning. Fifty years ago, March 3, the Y. W. was first organized in Boston, and has rapidly grownguntil there is an organization in every city in the United States. The Y. W.'s greatest work is to help the poor work- ing girls of the cities. 146.- 4 iiii 'si l af fe. 01- s D fN 5 w T sf' Xfvgp-its I KJ L..

Due to the personal efforts of William Husemeyer, a meeting was held on the twenty-fifth of January, at which the Engineers were called together and the merits of some permanent organization were discussed. As a result of this meeting a committee was appointed to draw up a set of by-laws. On the eighth of February a meeting was called by the chairman of this committee at which the by-laws were discussed and formally adopted. All officers of the association are to serve for a term of one year and are to be elected on the second Friday of the school year. The officers elected to serve until the regular election were: William Husemeyer ..e...cc.e cc.,.....i...,,...,.... ....,......

Treasurer The purpose of the Association is to have papers prepared on various Engineering subjects by different members of the Association which shall be given at the regular meetings of the Association. As the Associa- tion grows stronger we hope to bring speakers to the Poly to address the Association along Engineering lines. The regular meetings of the Association are to be held on the second Friday of each month of the school yearg yet special meetings may be called at any time by the president. At the first regular meeting, held on March 10, two interesting and instructive papers were giveng one by Sidney Emison on the develop- ment. of the gas engine and the other by William Husemeyer on the his- tory of electricity. ily QQ I r rx ' it I ?hg1Hf -52 5?

To get things started, the man- agement named Guy L. Barnes as editor in chief, Wallace E. Douglas, business manager, and Philip Willis, literary editor. Then it was discovered that we needed a name for our magazine. Every member of the Institute was requested to suggest a name, with the understanding that the person suggesting the acceptable one was to receive a free subscription to the C C 1 C t J J J J J ? as long as it should be published. A hot contest developed. When all the names were in, the management of the school and the ---i-? force decided upon THE POLYGRAPH, suggested by Philip Vlfillis. After the publication of the November number, Wallace Douglas re- signed his position as business manager. In consequence Mr. Barnes changed his title to editor and Mr. Willis became known as manager. At this time the importance of ad-setting and shop work was recognized and Robert Griffin, printer, went on the title page. 1 tContinued on Page T4.J -43- -.4 .

Hut since the introduction of the big stick at the Poly last fall on the football Held by Coach Canup. athletics have rapidly grown in pop- ularity and importance. Mr. Charles E. Canup, a graduate of De Pauw University, besides taking a very prominent part in all athletics at the University, has had several years experience as coach of different high schools throughout the state of Indiana, and last fall developed one of the best teams in that state. So we look ahead to great achievements along athletic lines. A ssociation Officers 1915-16. President ...i...cc,ec,,,..,..... , cceee,e,e, e,,,vcc,,,, , ,e,,,,,,,,,,,,.,,.,.,,,., . .,.......,,..

The coach found himself confronted with the problem of whipping out a good team from new and inexperienced material. Under these conditions We played Sheridan and were defeated. The result was not so discouraging, and although we were defeated in the next game by Livingston, hopes for a successful season still ran high. The next game was played at Sheridan which again resulted in a victory for Sheridan. The last game was played at home with Livingston and ended in an 0 to 0 tie. Our prospects for next year are bright at the present time, the team losing only three of the members of this year's squad. We need new men for that team next year, and most of all we need fight and spirit for the side lines. Let's everyone get together and help put out a winning team. Left End .....,. Left Tackle ....

You will note by the schedule that some of the strongest teams in Montana and Wyoming were played. Big Timbe1 lost the State Championship by only two points after ten minutes had been added to the time of play. The best thing that can be said about the season is a reference to the list of scores. Please note our total as compared with that of our opponents. W'hile some of the players stand above others in scoring, they were but one cog in the machine, and completed the perfect team work. 43 ' 15 Polytechnic ................

As yet it is hard to get a complete line on the prospects, but We have some splendid material which only needs development. The track events seem to be represented splendidly, but there is a lack of material for field events. During Commencement week a track meet will be held by the stud- ents of the Poly. The Winner of the most points will be given an in- scribed gold medal, while Winners of first, second and third places in the respective events will be given blue, red, and white ribbons. ffiontinued on Page 74.3 ..55- VW ' ' L ,, I V VI l--A Y NX'- A I9 'iw ff fp W T52 4,50 BASEBALL TEAM N 1 WRESTLING CLUB EX -. -g--- +-:- - if--Y--'-f-A1--A f- -- , - ,YYY W- Y ?-V Vai, P ra rN I X 1 1 Ref' L 1 ' - I LJ L- J .f lvb, my mvvwkq-w-my 1- L-A irx LW YY 49, Vvyr .

But, as we are soon to leave you, we must tell it to you now, For we know that it will do your old heart good. Poly, you have made us love you just by loving us so well, Just by showing us the way when we were blind, Just by pointing us to higher things the many times we fell, Just by helping us our better self to find. Poly, you have made us love you when you found for us our soul, When you made us know that life is all divine, When you fired us with a passion to attain some worthy goal, And to keep our life with truth and right in line. Poly, you have made us love you when you taught us that success Is a thing not measured by or bought with gold, But to live our best, and thereby spread around us happiness, Is success tho' we a pauper's lot must hold. Poly, you have made us love you for unnuinbered other things, That have touched us deep with confidence and joy, And as we face the World today the heart within us sings, Trusting in the Truth you've taught us to employ. Poly, we are soon to leave you, but be sure where e'er We go There will always be a thot of love for you, And whatever we may be or do, dear Poly, always know XVe'll remember, and to our Old School be true.

The standing of a school is always determined by the quality of its pro- duct,-by the ability and character of those who have completed its re- quired courses of study and have gone forth from its doors into the world outside. It is for this reason that the Polytechnic can be particularly proud of her alumni. In practically every instance those who have graduated from the Polytechnic and gone out into the battle of life have made good. They have not only demonstrated their efficiency in their chosen line of work, but have also shown that moral fiber and strength of charac- ter which is always the result of the training received at the Polytechnic. Below will be found the list of those who have graduated from the Polytechnic during the six years of its existence. with their present ad- dresses as far as it has been possible to obtain them.

Domestic Science and Art fContinued from Page 28.1 The Domestic Science young ladies have been busy in other lines. They have given entertainments and candy sales with the hope of rais- ing sufficient money to buy a full silver service for their department and present the same to the school as a souvenir of the classes of 1915-16. Domestic Art Department. This department as well as the Domestic Science, is a fully estab- lished course. Here our girls are taught the decoration of the home and its purpose, garment-making and all stitches employed in the making of all garments and things of the home, design, fitting, planning, millinery, cutting from patterns, the study of patterns and cutting, art embroidery, in all its branches, crochet, sewing machine Work. Sewing broadens a girl's mind and nature, teaches her patience, love, and a consideration of others. A woman should be the most attractive thing in the home, by her gentle manner, her culture, her neatness, and her love and thought for other people's comfort. She should have a thorough training in the three H's, the Head, the Heart, and the Hand, that all the world will say of woman, She made it easier to be good, she is so reliable, learned, and real. The Art department like the Science department will leave a souvenir of their year's work. They hope to fur- nish the decorations for their Art room. We live in deeds, not years, in thoughts, not breaths, in feelings, not in figures on the dial. We shall count time by heart throbs. He most lives who thinks most, feels the noblest, acts the best.

Fly Leaf Philosophy After a little search among old hymn books and some text books the editor was overcome with joy at some of the wise sayings recorded on the fly leaves and the many eorruptions of titles in the hymn books. Perhaps some of the readers will recognize their handwriting and sue for infringement of the copyright laws. These bits of wisdom did not originate in the editor's mind, and are called Fly Leaf Philosophy on ae- eount of their origin. Oh! You great big beautiful donkey. I-lee-Haw.

As it is, let us say that we three have learned much wisdom from our POLYGRAPH experiences, and in spite of long night shifts and inquisitive visitors, to say nothing of pi's tand piesll there has been much of pleasure mixed with all our work. At times We thought the public too indifferent to our efforts, and cruelly unmindful of the awful weight of our many responsibilities, but now we know that we have received fully as much encouragement as we deserved, and a great. deal more of pity than was our rightful due. Financially, THE POLYGRAPH has suffered somewhat from being new and unprovedf' We wanted to illustrate each number with school cuts, cartoons, etc., and to have attractive heads for the departments, and publish a table of contents, and many other things that cost money. However, with the assistance of the Institute in furnishing the paper for the first tive issues a.nd a large share of the printer's time, we have closed the year with a small credit. Our total circulation, including ex- changes and copies sent to advertisers, has averaged about 125 copies each month. And now, swallowing our regrets with what grace we can command, we turn to the future confident that our successors will really do what we so hard have tried to do-make THE POLYGRAPH a credit to our school, worthy the support of every friend and the respect of all acquaint- ances. A THLETICS tt ontinued from Page 55.j BASEBALL Baseball teams have been organized for the season of 1916. Owing to the shortness of the season and scarcity of material, relations with high schools of the state will not be resumed this spring. Much spirit is being shown by the boys and no doubt we will have many exciting contests between the students of the different departments. WRESTLING CLUB ' The W'restling club is a new organization at the Poly that is doing good work along lines of physical development. A tournament has been arranged and is now being carried out, there being four matches each school day between the hours of nine and ten P. M. The classes are feather-weight, light-weight, middle-weight, and heavy-weight. There are at present twenty-four active members. All members of the club must take part in the tournament. The organization of the club is simple, there being a president, Harry Bolles, and a secretary-treasurer, Alfred Mace. Meetings of the club are called by the president whenever he sees fit. The motto is Clean Sport. -MH A Business Concern Must owe a continuous existence and growth to a de- mand for its service---and a demand for its service to good service rendered. We want to serve well. We hope to grow as a result of giving those who favor us service better than they can obtain elsewhere.

A.'s reception of welcome to the young men of the Institute on September 25 took the form of a hare and hound chase. The hounds were shut into the gymnasium until the hares had a chance to get to their hiding places. After the chase the group went to the rimrocks where a camp-tire lunch was served. On this same evening the ladies of the school were entertained by t.he Y. W. C. A. in Kimball hall. O11 the evening of December 4 the school was entertained by hearing Madame Butterfly on the Victrola. On account of many of the numbers being in Italian, Miss Randall gave the interpretation of the opera. We were able to secure enough records to give the complete opera. The opera Martha was given a few weeks later. About fifty of our business men friends from Billings came out to visit us on December 10 and were entertained by an elaborate banquet served by the domestic science girls. Many of us learned that we have a great deal to be thankful for. 1 Mr. E. T. Eaton was very pleasantly surprised on the evening of December 11, by the faculty's paying him a visitiand presenting him with a handsome traveling bag bearing the initials HE. T. E. Mr. and Mrs. Eaton left the next week for California for a much-needed rest. The iirst public music recital of the year was given December 19 under the direction of Miss Randall. Many of those taking part, per- formed for the first time in public and for this reason deserve special praise. The boys' glee club appeared in public for the first time. The second recital was given March 11. The music was all of the very highest order and these recitals are looked forward to with great interest. December 22 all Polyites enjoyed their annual Christmas tree and treat and were entertained by Dickens' Christmas Carol. The Christmas week was one continual round of good times for those who spent the holi- days on the campus. V New Years eve Mrs. Rogers and Mrs. Deadman entertained the faculty at a banquet where Mr. Turkey was the guest of honor. Nearly every one present was called upon to give a New Years toast. Music by the Victrola furnished the entertainment. Patrick Kim addressed the school at Vesper service January 9. Eugene Harpole gave the address at one of the Week-day Chapel ex- ercises. There is much talent in our numbers, which is lying dormant and this is a splendid way to arouse and exercise it. Mr. Thompson is to be congratulated on the recital given January 28 by his department. Every number was rendered perfectly and gave evi- dence of careful and patient training. Our band and orchestra are a credit to the school. This recital was repeated in the Congregational church in Billings where it again Won great applause. A Leap year party was given January 15. The young ladies exercised their twenty-Hve-times-a-century privilege by escorting the young men to the dining room Where refreshments were served. The annual Moving Day banquet held this year on February 5 was a splendid success, as everyone present entered into the spirit of the oc- casion and enjoyed it to the utmost. The banquet was served on bare 30 YEARS of Honorable Dealing Has given this establishment the biggest thing in the business world today- The Confidence of the Public And let it be thoroughly understood that this confidence is not the result of accident or chance: it is the logical outcome of right dealing, selling merchandise of dependable quality, thor- ough excellence in service, and a stubborn refusal to switch to any other business methods.

A number of former students were present and many who could not come sent. letters to be read. While this is always a joyful affair, still this time there was a touch of sadness in it as it was the farewell banquet to the old building where so many good times have been had and which is dear to all Poly hearts. The Domestic Science department held a candy and pie sale February 26. There were big pies, little pies, apple pies, mince pies, good pies, mag- pies, cherry pies, onion pies, fat pies, lean pies and the whole family of pies. The Pioneers were pioneers in deed as well as in name this year when they broke the ice and came out with a good live society program March 10. The'Societies had been letting other organizations look after the social life, but that they were finally awakened was evidenced by the fact that the Alphas appeared on March 17. Their program was given over to selections from Riley, and from the proceeds of the sale of Riley buttons, the society secured a bust of Riley and a painting of The Old Swimmin' Hole to leave as a souvenir to the school. These programs were fol- lowed by another from the Eagles on March 24. The Aristos did not wish to be forgotten and gave a public program April 22. March 18 the boys of the school entertained the girls and faculty in A dormitory, which was decorated very prettily. All rooms were open to the visitors and their open house was a great success. At a general meeting of students and faculty held in the Chapel February 25, Mr. Lougee, who had been planning on slipping guiltily away on his departure for his New England home, was collared and made to listen to an expression of appreciation and farewell from the whole Poly bunch. After a short talk from Governor Guiler, representing the students, and another from Mr. Kline on behalf of the faculty, Mr. Lougee took the floor and gave us a word picture of his vision for the Poly. Somehow he made us feel that it was not a vision at all, but the real thing. ' 2 1 - , , fb, , ,. ill.
