In 1835 Spring Arbor was chosen by the Metho- dists as the site for a college. Four years later this school was moved to Al- bion, Michigan, where it still exists, now being known as Albion College. In 1844 the Baptist Church founded in Spring Arbor a theological seminary, soon known as Michigan Central College, the iirst co-educational institution in the Middle West. However, the campus was again left vacant in 1853 when the Baptists moved to Hillsdale, Michigan, the present home of Hills- dale College. Soon after pioneering preachers of the Free Methodist Church came to fMich- igan, the need of a denominational school in this region was realized. In 1873 the campus again took on new life when Spring Arbor Seminary was organ- ized by representatives of the Free Methodist Church. It has now been more than sixty years since this church school had its modest beginning in this quiet Michigan village. The passing years have seen growth and expansion until today our school includes a standard four-year High School, two years of junior College, a strong Bible School, a School of Music, and a Business Department. Many parts of the world have been touched and influenced for good by the thousands of young people who have studied here. And so ourcampus stands for a century of service and blessing. In present- ing this volume of The Echo, we desire to reflect the high moral and intel- lectual qualities which have characterized the work of the past ten decades. 2 ' 2 'ki lg 'W t' DEDICATION 5 This volume of The Echo is dedicated to the more than eight hundred graduates of Spring Arbor Semi- nary and junior College-men and women who have gone out to fill responsible and worthwhile places in the world, and who have proved that Spring Arbor has not failed in its mission. ii- Y ii ' V ir 1 ,- ' 1' 'N L 36' 'V il 'Y' CONTENTS 5 H- O M E ' P O R T . .

Reared in a Free Methodist parsonage where faith and virtue reigned, he had made an early response to things noble and true and beautiful. He loved Christ, and this love was the secret of a life wholly devoted to his Lord. As he lived with us in the school family and took his part in school ac- tivities, we learned to love him. His was a gentle spirit, perhaps too good for this hard world. Dale's stay with us was short-not quite two months. Yet he made a place for himself which can not be readily filled. Our lives are richer for having known him. Heaven is richer with his redeemed spirit. f 4422 rw ,f S C H I If O ' I 1 I L f !!

The sis- ter class hikes in both Fall and Spring were thoroughly enjoyed. The skip-hike with the Seniors was a bright spot in the year. Yet deeper and far beyond all the fun we have had, there has been a deepening of character, on awakening to the realities, of life which are facing us so close at hand. This year, filled with work and fun, sunshine and clouds, has been one of close fellowship and establishing of friendships which will endure. Life has taken on a new meaning for us, and we feel that by the help of God we can and will be conquerors. We are fascinated by the mystery of the future, and yet almost tremble when we think of leaving the sheltering walls of Spring Arbor and making our own way through life. College Freshm Tempus fugit! It seems so short a time ago that we came to Spring Arbor and looked about us with wondering eyes at the campus which was beautiful from the first, at the build- ings, which have been like people who bear acquaint- ance, and at the faculty and other students with whom we soon became friends under the homey, congenial at- mosphere. The days ahead no longer were enemies to be vanquished, but instead were colored with eager antici- patron. Nor have those days, now past, disappointed us. Glancing back, one after another stands out from the rest with its gift, its contribution to our treasure of mem- ories. And yet they are more than memories, we need not recede into the past to relieve them, the todays are richer because of them. There have been experiences in the classrooms when our teachers have tried to point out the best way to us, experiences in the gymnasium of learning to co-operate, to lose as well as to win, and experiences in school and church that have gone far toward building a well bal- anced christian character. But now the time has come when we must part with all these things-when we can share no longer the joys and sorrows of Spring Arbor days. We are thankful for Spring Arbor and the background that we have had here, for we feel that we are better equipped to fill our places in life for having attended such a school as this. May we as a class be an honor to our school and accomplish well the tasks given to us. -BETTY ELLEN Cox en of '36 Extra-curricular activities were not only tolerated, but encouraged by those in authority. So hikes, picnics, sleigh-rides, parties, and so on broke the routine and added zest to school-life. Fun, still in its own place, has not usurped first place. More than ever we are deter- mined to keep First things first. Early this school-year one of our number was called Home. We will always cherish the memory of Dale Ormston, whose short life was filled with indices that pointed not to himself, but to God. However diverse our paths may be, we will never for- get when we were the College Freshman Class of 1936 of Spring Arbor, the school we love. -MARY LILLIAN KENNEDY e26wv lfnst Row, lclt tn rxglul: Gertrude XY'.1gcr, IXI.1ry l.xllr.ln Kennedy, Lnrrxlxnc Dmxlcy, Prof. T-m nw.

She was manned by as light-hearted and hardy a crew as ever peered through a port hole with high expectations of the coming adventure. After we had been royally received in a manner befitting embryo Seniors, we de- cided our stay was going to be a pleasant one. With our good ship safely docked and our sailing time set for june second, we elected Margaret Woelfle as president and Ray Mclntyre as vice president, and so became the official Senior class of 1936. Life at S. A. S. has been filled with many a thrilling experience. Outstanding among these are the class hike to Peppermint Springs with our sister class, the High School Sophomores, the all school picnic at Ella Sharp Park and, the most memorable of all, our skip hike to Wolf Lake with the College Sophomores. Time flew by and the second semester came on too soon. Ruth Kelly was elected president and Margaret Woelfle vice president. Basketball was now the main sport, and many a thrilling game was played in the old gym. Here our class came to the front by winning the boys tournament, and by taking second place in the girls' tournament after a close match with the college Freshmen in the finals. We Seniors have found Port S. A, S. a most encouraging placeg the morning chapel services start the day aright, and the faculty never fails to help when help is wanted. Spring is here and things about the Campus are turning green, school spirit is high, and Spring Arbor has come to mean more than just a casual port, for friendships have been formed which will never be forgotten. Now as the school year draws to a close it is a sad but wiser crew which boards the old ship better fitted to sail the uncharted seas of life. The Senior class of 1956 ex- presses its deepest gratitude to its Alma Mater for benefits derived, both educational and spiritual, and in parting says, All Hail and Aloha.

Eleanor Beegle The junior class lists a total membership of eighteenf nine boys and nine girls. Six of us are spending our first year in Spring Arbor. Three states, Ohio, Illinois, and Michigan are represented, giving the class variety. The spirit runs high among the juniors, and through the ambition of a few students, the cooperation of the rest, and the generosity of some of the neighboring farmers we put on a parade which the whole town en- joyed. Horses were borrowed from two different farm- ers, a wagon from another, and another offered his bull to supply added attraction. The juniors came into town with their colors in orange and black crepe paper streaming in the wind. The juniors did not take a back seat for anyone in soccer, capturing second place after a hard battle with the college Sophomores. They also produced two good basketball teams. Our class furnished two members of the high school debate team, Pauline Maxwell and Oscar Kenney, and a wall plaque from the Michigan High School Debating League remains as a reminder of their accomplishments. Music hath charms and the junior class is not with- out its charms. Pauline Maxwell, and Renold Briggs each make a guitar speak for itself. Mr. Argyle Law- rence specializes in both pipe organ and piano, and there are numbers of others who possess special vocal talent. On the whole, the -Iuniors have an excellent class. XVe have played some part in many of the important events of the year. We have helped to keep class spirit aroused and have helped to advertise the school through participation in interscholastic activity. The future holds many pleasant recollections for all of us, and we are not forgetting that for many of these we are indebted to our competent adviser, Miss Knowles.

Vice President , Secretary Treasurer On September fourth the Freshman class, a group of twenty-three, started their voyage on the good ship, Spring Arbor Seminary. In spite of the fact that we were just Freshies, we congratulated ourselves in the wisdom we showed in selecting Professor and Mrs. Schwarzentraub as our class advisers. Most of us were new to the school and town, and our first month was occupied in looking around and get- ting acquainted. We have had several Freshman functions that were made enjoyable through the excellent co-operation of both the class and our advisers. Early in the fall our sister class, the juniors, gave us a very exciting Treasure Hunt. After going for some distance we were inspired to find the long looked for and expected note which read, Retrace your steps back Cleiira Moffatt Betty Lawrence Eldon Hibbard . ,.Ruth NVilkin to the library and your supper will be read. Although we were almost exhausted by this time from our hot, tiresome walk, we turned back with courage, and after reaching our destination we ate heartily and had a jolly time together. Later in the fall we were invited to the parsonage lor an evening of entertainment, After spending our time in playing games, refreshments were served. Wfe enioyed the evening very much, and were glad that we were Freshmen. Although we didnt win the tournament, we turned out two good basketball teams that have played some close games with the upper classes. All in all we feel that this year has been a good one, and we have our heart set on becoming college sopho- mores in some rosy future. ff-Ctcoim Moififari' 41 D What Spring Arbor Means To Me Every year I looked forward to the time when A Cappella made its tour. It was marvelous and amazing, and O, how I wanted to sing it that group. Day in and day out I lived and prayed for the day when I could go to Spring Arbor, and rrnaliy the way opened for me to come. The school has become a part of my life and will hold a sacred spot in my memory. The first time I heard God mentioned in class it gave me a queer feeling. It is not uncommon to have prayer in a class recitation. The dorm strikes a spot in my heart that may seem strange to some. I really loved that old dorm. The happy, joyous experiences there cannot be numbered. New religious interests were opened up to me at Spring Arbor. There is opportunity to take part in public serv- ice, one gets practice in leading singing, in conducting devotions, and in appearing before a congregation. Dear Spring Arbor! May God bless her in the com- ing years. May others receive as much of a blessing and a benefit as I have received. -ELEANOR BEEGLE Spring Arbor has spelled opportunity for me. I have found opportunity for development in a physical, social, mental, and spiritual sense. I have found here a spirit of friendliness seldom to be duplicated. In the social realm the various functions serve splendidly to break the monotony of class routine. Opportunity is af- forded for the exercising of any talent a person might possess. The outstanding benefit is found in the splendid Christian atmosphere which permeates the entire realm of student life. Those of us who have attended our modern public institutions of higher learning know well the contrast one finds there. -FRANK BULLOCK The pious and learned instructors mould the student body and lead them on to better things in life. It is a wonderful value to young people of my age to be grouped in such an environment. For after all, educa- tion is merely culture, and no individual can possess culture in its broadest sense without also possessing reverence and duty toward God. -VIRGINIA SMITH Last night, after the last two unsaved girls in the dormitory had broken through to victory, and the dear, shabby hall had kindled into glory round Himj' one of the girls exclaimed, This year at Spring Arbor has meant more to me than all my other years together. Her eyes showed that she had just wept with those who wept, but her happy smile showed she rejoiced with them as well. I heard an echo to her exclamation as the girl to whom she was speaking quickly replied, Me, too. I have been encouraged to make much of my edu- cational privileges and attempt to repay my parents for the great sacrifice they are making for me. I believe Spring Arbor has enriched my life. Companionship with real Christians and clean-living young people make me more than ever want to make something of myself. EMARY LILLIAN KENNEDY To students who have gone to public schools it seems one grand relief to be where there is no swearing or stealing. I am glad for the wonderful influence which is around Spring Arbor. MVERNA HIBBARD Wheii I decided to come to Spring Arbor a year and a half ago, I probably made a decision that influenced my life. One does not appreciate Spring Arbor unless he has to attend a public school. The Christian faculty, the Christian student body, the wonderful singing, the dorm- itory life which is good for anyonefand the special in- terest the teachers take in the students-all these make Spring Arbor a place you will always remember. -RENOLD BRIGGS Spring Arbor has helped me much spiritually. I had gone to a public school all my life and had been some- what alone in my opinions as far as religion and moral standards were concerned. Here in Spring Arbor one can study, work, and play with those who do not ridicule one for reading the Bible or refusing to cheat in classes. -CATHERINE VANDER ROEST cz an RPL wiffff M f 'r K Qggfg..-m d 1 9 3 5 CLASSES ---,..W.. ,- I C .,.. . i.-.-W- k..,.-...., ,..

Its a rough road and a steep road, and it and far, But leads at last to a golden Town where are. A new road was stretching before us. had dreamed of this stepfthe approach college life of tour years. We expected tivity, and yet as we began to cope with we realized that college required effort. We enjoyed additions to our class w make the road easier to travel and new triumphant. We participated in the various act stretches broad golden Houses For years we to an alluring interesting ac- new problems ho helped to victories more ivities of the Freshmen 1935 school, even in basketball-for a while-and then left the field to Qmust I say?j more skillful players. But Rhetoric was the bane of our existence, and even the use of the syllogism didn't make us thrill at our theme productions. However, all this was forgotten when the Sophomores invited us on a hike into the coun- try, where a picnic supper served after we had tired our- selves out playing indoor and other games helped us dis- miss classroom cares for awhile. One of the pleasant diversions along the way arrived in the form of an April Fools party. The boys invited the girls with invitations written entirely backwards- but what could one expect? We arrived, dressed in a conglomeration of ragged clothes, only to find our hosts dressed in their best. The year was a continual round of activity and en- joyable co-operation, and we hope as a class in the future to make a real contribution to our Spring Arbor. -PAULINE JONES The Seniors of 1935 It was with great fear and trembling, and yet with eager expectation that we, the class of 1935, started the year as Seniors. We had a vague idea of what it would mean to be dignified Seniors and what would be expected of us. Still we had to live and learn. Now that our life as Seniors has drawn to its close, and we look back to the various events that have special significance to us, we are filled with a longing for those busy, happy days to return. Yet, we still have the memories and can live again those days in reminiscence. Knowing we could not have our former honorary member, Miss Marjorie Stone, who had guided us through two previous years, we chose our new president and his wife, Dr. and Mrs. Nystrom, to succeed her. They have proved to be very good advisers and have helped us through many difficult places. One night last Fall-a night never to be forgotten! we Seniors with the College Sophomores skipped to Wolf Lake. The whole school bid us a hearty So long, and wished us a good time. A rousing, noisy night we had spooking around and keeping folks awake. And what a breakfast that was of pancakes and sausage the next morning! A few weeks later we entertained our sister class, the high school sophomores, on a hike to a woody grove about two miles from Spring Arbor. We would like to make our accomplishments in ath- letics. The Senior girls took the cup for the basketball tournament, and the boys the tournament in baseball. Throughout these last four years we have been en- deavoring not only to make good in school, but to build character, that is why we chose for our motto, On Unto Perfection. There have been several parties and class gatherings which we have enjoyed. Not only have we shared our social gatherings with each other, but we have worked together and mingled our sorrows and disappointments. Now that we are separating we are filled with sadness. But we have promised ourselves a reunion to call up old memories and rejoin old friends which we knew in our beloved Alma Mater, dear old S. A.

So the year started with a bang. However, we believe by now that we have lost the greenness of our freshman days and have been in contact with the diffnified seniors lonf' enough to vain some degree of D C nb 23 D dignity. We were pleased to have as our class advisers, Presi- dent and Mrs. Lowell, who cooperated with us to make this a successful year. We will never forget the splen- did party they gave us at their home. At last the time came for the big event of the year -Mthe junior-Senior banquet. The dining hall was dec- orated for this fete with a color-scheme of green and white. One hundred green and white balloons were sus- pended from the ceiling by means of crepe streamers of the same colors. In all it was a beautiful picture, mak- ing the banquet a pronounced success. In sports we acquitted ourselves fairly well, The girls took third place in basketball and the boys second place. We feel that we have made this year a successful one both in education and recreation. However, we do not intend to coast along, but rather to make next year an even better one than this. -RAY MCINTYRE tx4On 9 lfiont Row. lelt ln iight: Helen Hullman. lstliei Wieiser, Dorcne Simca-.

On September twelfth we counted our crew and found that we had seven girls and nine boys, all very anxious to get started on their second years voyage, We chose Miss Knowles as pilot and class adviser and George Kingsley as captain of our bark. After a rather stormy first semester, when we all tried to get our sea legs and recover from that strange disease of homesick- ness, we took a new inventory. XVe had gained two new deck hands in Stanley and Esther XVeiser. Our ac' tivities had been quite extensive. Our girls' indoor and basketball teams were well organized and were worrying all the upper tlass teams. Our boys soccer and basket' ball teams were giving keen competition also. We chose Pauline Maxwell as our captain for the second semester. 1Sophomo1-es and adopted. amid ripper classmen's hoots and ieers. the honored Safety Pin as our class emblem. lfor the rest of the year we enjoyed many lively hikes and parties and managed to be represented in almost all of the schools activities. Gene Peters took high honors in Declamation, and we had two members of the class take points on lricltl Day. To sum up, we can truthfully say that we had one hundred per cent cooperation in everything that the class undertook, Miss Knowles as our class adviser, worked very hard on all our problems, and to her we owe many of the happy memories of our successful Solipomore v oyage. ---l'lAl'I.1NIi Maxwiirr.

But we of the Freshman Class found that if we were to have an education, we must go after it. So, twenty in number, we boarded the good ship Scholarship. After choosing Miss Fletcher as our helmsman for the voyage. we left the harbor in tow of the patient tugboat Leader- ship-our faculty. Before we had really gotten our sea-legs, our radio operator received .1 message from the S. S. juniors, in- viting us to drop anchor just off the coast of Peppermint Springs where we, at their expense, enjoyed ourselves immensely with games and refreshments. Having set sail again, we progressed smoothly for a while, but just as we were getting used to our new sur- roundings, the storm of midterm examinations nearly overcame us. Some of us had been trying to Stowaway up until this time, but after the first storm came, we found that each of us had to be a hard working member of the crew. When the storm had abated, finding our- selves none the worse for our experience, we continued on our voyage. Many times during the trip when we put into port for cargo, we engaged in friendly rivalry with the crews of other vessels. Although we were tenderfoot sailors and gained few victories in basketball and soccer, we gained much in experience. As our voyage progressed, we successfully passed by the Reef of Freshmen's Woe-semester examinations, and weathered the hurricanes of various term and mid- term tests. But not all of our voyage was rough sailing, much of the time we sailed over calm blue seas under sunny skies, and at last entered successfully into the har- bor, having completed the first lap of the journey. -ROBERT WARNER 44 wr Lf! 4 fu' .2 J g W ,ff Z.-.5 v Z... po 711 i I I 4,.- ' .

If :' - -rr: I . is. g k yy- K . ig ' ii vi f y 1,4 ', l. 1 I I I never thought I would care to be in the A Cappella Chorus, but when I heard what was left of last year's chorus sing in chapel at the beginning of the year, it gripped me. It was then that I decided to sing in the chorus if I should be able to make the grade. It has proved to be a spiritual profit. The Christian fellow- ship has been an uplift. It is work, but it is productive of satisfaction. I am sure that its pleasant memory will linger throughout my life. Singing is one of the greatest means of giving new life to mind and heart. Our A Cappella Chorus sings the songs of Zion so that my soul is revived and I am lifted to a higher plane. The A Cappella Chorus is a highly spiritual organ- ization which has not only enhanced my love for music, but has increased my desire for a harmonious relation- ship with Christ. 'Lift up your hearts with joyful Alleluiasl' In the A Cappella we sing those songs which seem to make us sing from the heart in joyful melodies. As we have found, when the Spirit of the Lord is with us, our sing- ing is richer and sweeter. The blending of voices in the different parts gives a thrill that every heart can feel. cc sc.. My four years in the A Cappella have been a real education in themselves. It's hard work, yet we feel that if any part of our school deserves our best, our Chorus does. Vlfe would not want to have it left out even for one year. Songs-those with deep and full meaning-grip me more than anything other than the Bible. It was the hymns, the prayers, and the lives of certain ones con- nected with the Chorus which convicted me and inspired me to have the best which life had to offer. To me the A Cappella has been a great source of spiritual learning. It has been balm to my soul many times. It is there I get a real desire to live and under- stand the richness and beauty of life. It is hard to evaluate the benefit derived from be- ing in the A Cappella Chorus. I have often attended re- hearsal with feelings at low tide. and after singing the inspired songs I have left feeling something within which I did not have when I came in. To me the A Cappella means more than singing- it is a thing of beauty never to be forgotten. Its uplift- ing power, its restfulness, its wholesome social contacts, its spiritual atmospherevall help to make it the high spot in my school year at Spring Arbor. 47 D 1935 The Commercial Department The person who can meet the demands of the commer- cial world today must have a thorough knowledge of business training. This is necessary to broaden his back- ground and to give assurance in the pursuit of his vocation. In the business world today, not only must the sten- ographer, secretary, or bookkeeper have a complete knowledge of the system and practice of the works, but he must possess a higher order of intelligence. He should have a keen desire to make a success of himself in the business world, should possess a pleasing person- ality, and above all be able to think and make decisions for himself. It is only as the commercial student puts forth energy and ability that he will have the power to accomplish his work. If in Spring Arbor the student will learn to sur- mount his handicaps and difficulties it will not only help him as he goes forth to make himself useful in the busi- ness world, but one victory makes the next problem easier to solve. XVe need to get the vision of the need of Christian business men and women. Spring Arbor has caught sending forth that vision, and, as an institution, is Christian young men and women for this work. As Ben- yamin Franklin said in his rather homely way, He that by the plow would thrive, himself must either hold or drive, so we must be persistent and prepare to give to the world the best of intelligent Christian business rnen and women. YCHARLOTTE PHILLIPS 1936 44 as 0 Home Economics Department 1936 As the Students See The Home Economics Department Home Economics, as a distinctive subject of instruc- tion, is the study of the economic, sanitary, and aesthetic aspects of food, clothing, and shelter as connected with their selection, preparation, and use by the family in the home or by other groups of people. It is also a study of the care and training of children, of the rela- tionships of family members, and of the relations of the family to society. I believe a girls college education is not complete without some training in home making. We have found our study in Home Management most interesting. I be- lieve it will prove an aid to the future success of every girl. In this course we have learned that possessing costly furniture, keeping the house spotless, and giving elaborate dinners are not the essential and real qualities that go to make a happy home. Housekeeping is not an end in itselfg it is merely one stepping stone to suc- cessful home-making. The most important thing is to help create a happy and satisfactory home life for every member of the family. Clothes make the man! But unless we know our' selves we are unable to help our clothes make us. Gen- eral art principles and tasteful economy being stressed, we have a good general foundation. The value of the course in Tailoring cannot be over estimated, since it becomes and is an important part of practical everyday life. I am glad this year that I have taken the course in Home Management which includes the study of foods. The homemaker should know the sources of the elements in foods which are necessary to maintain health, and how to prepare and serve a well balanced meal. Much knowledge is soon forgotten, but I believe that students who receive such practical knowledge will always re- member it. cc49v Praise to My Alma Mater To thee, iny Jehool, I leave thiJ gift of praife: I lore thee with a lore that ne'er Lrhall fail, For than halt tanght ine hen' tn hrazfe the gale, I-Inn' heft In life and .rerz'e thrangh all niy tlayf.

Looking Over the Teacherfs Shoulder llqlnzf Stfrdealfi Think of Ike llnork of zlye Bible Srlmfil Ai' E.x'p1'e1.i'ed in Leileri' to Tlwlr Teaclaer The scholastic training for the ministry has opened up before me a field of which I had not dreamed before. It has made me feel my inadequacy, and yet has caused me to want to learn more and more about this great work. My hunger for more of this knowledge has been increased. The study of the Bible has made me realize my need of more learning, and has created within me a hun- ger adequately to understand the Word of God. I came here with a narrow view of what a minister had to do. My view has been broadened, and I can see the need of further study. I had done some preaching before I came to Spring Arbor last September, but I did not even know how to put a sermon together. Since most of my preaching had been done in the same church, my supply of material was running low. The work in the Bible Department this year has been most valuable, I believe. in that it has taught me how to study, to plan, and to organize. I shall go out to work again with a benefit which shall never be measured nor forgotten. The training I have received at Spring Arbor has brought me several definite results as I look forward to the ministry: 1. It has given me an enlarged appreci- ation of the debt we owe to Christian scholarship. 2. It has fired me with a desire to continue studying. 3. It has revealed to me with fresh emphasis the importance of adequate training for a great task. 4. It has given me a measure of confidence as I view the field ahead. l'One year in Spring Arbor has accentuated for me the feeling that careful preparation has an important place in the training of a minister. Never before have I so felt my need as now. The world is not only challeng- ing our moral characters, but our reasons for conduct and faith. Surely, if we ever needed a comprehensive view and understanding, it is now. Wl1en I first considered coming to school, I was tempted to ask, 'Why' not go into the work without go- ing to school, as many others have done? I talked to my pastor about it, and he strongly advised me to go to school. I would not take a million dollars for what I have learned this year. Things which I thought to be of minor importance have turned out to be of great value. It was because I felt my need of preparation for the task that lies before me that I came here last Sep- tember. In my school work I have gained a broader outlook, much practical good, and spiritual inspiration. I have learned the reasons for many of my beliefs which before I had taken for granted.

Borrociq 4539 1935 Bilale IJepaartn1en1 Believing with Locke that the Bible Has God for its author, salvation for its end, and truth, without any mix- ture of error, for its matter, it is all pure, all sincereg nothing too much, nothing wanting, it has been the aim of the Bible School at Spring Arbor to focus attention on the Book itself rather than the acquiring of facts about the Book. Only thus, we believe, can the Christian worker be Uthroughly furnished unto every good work. ln other words he must have a working knowledge of the Scriptures. But there is another objective constantly before us as we pursue our study. The Bible, as Boyle says, is to be used not merely as an arsenal to be resorted to for arms and weapons, but as a matchless temple, where we delight to contemplate the beauty, the symmetry, and the magnificence ol the structure, and to increase our awe and excite our devotion to the Deity there preached and adored. The Bible Training course has been so arranged as to meet the requirements of the course of study as out' lined in the discipline of the church. It should appeal, therefore, to all who are contemplating entering either the ministry or missionary fields. That it does so appeal is evidenced by the fact that during the past year the enrollment in Bible courses has been greater than ever in the history of the school. -REV. E. L. HIBBARD 1936 44541: 1935 The Value of Y. P. M. S.

Again Sunday afternoon means prayer groups, or a service at the Transient Home-,lacl-zson, our major field. There on Sunday morning a program of sacred song- Youth in Actionf-fhas been broadcast. All for Christ to make Christ for all. May next year find us even stronger and larger for Him. -CHARI.l2s KIN4.sL1fY The Y. P. M. S. occupies a very important place in the activities of the Christian students of Spring Arbor. It provides practical training for the prospective ministers. missionaries, and religious workers. Our hearts rejoice often when in our work at the jail and the County Farm, we see some of them with tears flowing down their cheeks, ask us to pray with them. Yes, the Y. P. M. S. is worthwhile. +lVlARGARET Ht iL'r'oN To me the Y. P. M. S. means SERVICE. Not as drudgery. but as privilege and pleasure. Committee meetings -a service of time. jail and County liarm servicesnfa service of strength. Public activities-fa service of talent. Personal remembrances-a service of love. As Christ served, so Youth in Action must and do serve. -MARY I-owi21.L + ff- M 31 , .53 . '- x T f 1 T ::'?1 f-'ASfxklffixs- -i if ' -'-- if -msg'- ': e? fm ' - 1 J X -A - 3 ts ii P .

S. is not a dormant, inactive group, organized by public opinion and carried on from a sense of dutyg it is a vital, living thing, which is continually widening its scope of service, and opening new channels for the expression and development of the spiritual side of the students life. -WILLARD MASON The Y. P. M.S, has contributed much to the spiritual atmosphere of Spring Arbor. Almost every young per- son has had a part in some Sunday service, or in going to the jail and County Farm services. l believe also the Y. P. M. S. has been beneficial in helping the students maintain a Christian experience. -CARL KOERNER I believe that the Y. P. M. S. is an asset to the church, and a benefit to the young people themselves. This aggressive society helps the young people to really take an interest in the work of seeing the gospel spread to those who are poor and needy. It also helps these young people to begin their future tasks in life by doing the work of the Lord. WBETHAVERY SMITH The Y. P. M. S. has proved a source of inspiration and enlightment to me. l've enjoyed every Sunday ev- ening service because of the newness of thought and most important, the spirit of the Lord present. Work- ing with a group among the needy has broadened my view, causing me sincerely to appreciate our society. ..-MARX' CHAPMAN Success in life depends upon several things. 1. A place of preparation. 2. A teeling ot responsibility. 5. A definite work to do. -i. A field to labor in. The Y. P. M. S. offers all four, which if they are taken advantage of will prove a blessing. fHENRH' SCHMIDT The Y. P. M. S. offers the young people opportunity to put their zeal in action. It develops their natural talent, gives them something to do for the Lord, and makes them feel that they are an important part of the church. Without a young peoples society, the young people are lacking in vision. -GERTRUDE WAGER Youth in Action -a fitting slogan indeed for the Y. P. M. S. at Spring Arbor. Through this organization the young people find a channel to express their zeal and love for their Christ. It has proved a blessing to countless numbers of people and can undoubtedly be used as an example to surrounding and future Y. P. M. S. societies. -VERNON DUNCKEL cc az IZ f .-xp Af' 0. fx? .9-'ihfhmbf a t. '-L. - S' 2 .....':?-....L':1..S I' 6 it- S -MA f 'iz c -'cn-5 '-- if if C i--1 5 2 5' L 1'+1..l CJK' S M- Q.

PAULIMQ MAxw13LL Girls' Basket Ball Last year after playing off several ties the seniors won over the college sophomores. The games were very fast, evenly matched, and an excellent showing was made. Dowley, justice and Williiiiiison were high point ladies for the seniors, and Case and Gay of the college sopho- mores, divided honors evenly. Field Of every school year one day is set apart when each class sends out her best representatives, to try to win honors. Field Day includes events such as the discus throw, shot-put, mile run, hundred yard dash, high jump, pole vault, baseball throw, and relay. Many talents come to light, and we discover that we too have fleet runners and high jumpers. On our 1955 Field Day jesse Howe took the mile This year's final basketball' game was even closer than last year's. The seniors and college freshmen were dogged in their desire for the championship. The college freshmen finally won by a close margin in the final game, which was tied for three quarters. Day run, Arthur Ensign the pole vault, Ellwood Voller the high jump, Vivian Gallup the baseball throw, and Wil- lard Mason the discus throw. The girls are not permitted to enter every one of the above contests, but they are allowed to have the high jump, fifty yard dash, baseball throw and broad jump. Gertrude Gay was high point girl in the ladies' events. The college sophomores were the high point class, with the seniors behind by one point. Girls' Indoor Team For 1955, the girls' teams were chosen without regard for class divisions, and took the names of such big league teams as Pirates, Giants and Yankees. The team which took the championship was the Detroit Tigers, headed by Schoolboy Rowe Case. For 1956 the classes turned out some very good teams and after some overtime periods the college freshmen won the tournament. COLLEGE FRESHMEN INDOOR CHAMPS ct as 4 Back lioxx':Williains, Liilruy.

Through the cooperation of both faculty and students we have added to our list of athletic equipment our Recreation Room. In this room there are three shuffleboard courts and a ping-pong table. The chief reason for the fitting up of this room was to provide entertainment during the noon hour for the students who eat their lunches in the build- ing. The students organized the Noon-day Recreation Club, with Leland Conner as supervisor of equipment. Many lively games are played, and all students enjoy playing for the championship.

Faculty Adviser .. The College Debate Club was born about 9:15 A. M., November 25, 1935, in the chapel and took on good proportions very rapidly. Full growth was reached with- in a few days after its constitution was approved, but it was not christened until a few weeks later, when the name Alpha Sigma Theta, standing in reverse order for Thought, Speech, and Action, was adopted. Thus the twenty-five charter members of the Debate Club started out to prove to their own satisfaction what could be ac- complished through organization and hard work. The announcement of a debate tournament between the Free Methodist junior Colleges to be held at Green- ville, Illinois, in the spring fired our enthusiasm, and we conceived the idea of taking our whole club. The only thing that stood in our way was the question of how to get there---and, we had to admit, there was a pretty big question mark after it too. But doubtful as it appeared we all set to work with the one goal in view. A ways and means committee was created to devise money raising projects, and the first campaign was an all-school sleigh ride with a ten cent charge to every one who rode. The outfit consisted of four sleighs, two teams, a coal truck, and about a hundred passengers who were out of the sleighs as much as in. Then to top the evening we served hot cocoa and doughnuts. This put a substantial foundation in our treasury. So lil mer Cain ,Ralph Lowell Harriette Bruce lfldon Home Lloyd Knox Dale Heath Hariiette G. X'v'ai'ner we put on an amateur contest next. The members of the club proved their talents in various ways. and only two were given the gong by the Major. The first prize was won by a versatile instrument player named Abernathy- cuprintwhistle, otherwise known as Mr. X. The villagers and students crowded the studio to capacity, and many voted it the best program of the year. Following this, the club held two pie a la mode sales, and when the dishes were washed and all was quiet the treasurer announced that the trip was financially possible. On Thursday, March 19, 1950, at a very early hour, five cars left Spring Arbor for the long looked for trip to Greenville. Wfe were treated royally by our hosts, but to describe the good time we had would take volumes. Wliile the Greenville trip was the high spot of the year, there were other things also that came along to keep our club active. Our regular Monday evening meet- ings were both instructive and entertaining. Nor could we forget that breakfast hike at the end of the school year where we were together for the last time. Wife have proved that the College Debate Club is a valuable and worth while organization, and though this is only its first year, it is not to be its last. XVe can make next year better yet. -ELMER CAIN 44 9: Front Row, left to right: Ray Mclntyre, Pauline Maxwell, Harriette G. Warner tCoachJ, Frances Lawrence. Oscar Kenney.

W on Spring Arbor vs. Frontier ...... ................................. W on Spring Arbor vs. Camden ............ Forfeit to Spring Arbor Spring Arbor vs. North Adams .................................. Lost The 1955-56 season has been an outstanding one in the history of forensics in Spring Arbor. The Spring Arbor team, debating the question, Resolved: That the several governments should make monopolies of the manufac- ture and sale of all combat instruments of war, won all the debates scheduled in the preliminary series of the Michigan High School Debate League. In recognition of this, the school was awarded a handsome trophy, in- scribed, for excellence in High School debating, by the Detroit Free Press. This is the third time in the his- tory of the school, and the first time in five years that Spring Arbor's debaters have gained this distinction. However, the members of the squad feel that the actual judges' decisions are among the least of the things gained in this year's debating. Among the more lasting benefits derived are ability to analyze a question, to think clearly and logically to speak persuasively. The debaters develop an interest in and better understanding of world affairsg they gain poise and confidence in meet- ing the challenge of an audience. All these things mean much more than does the mere defeating of an oppo- nent. In this clash of wits following diligent and care- ful preparation is an inestimably valuable preparation for life. -HARRIETTE G.

VUARNER, Cfaztlv RESOLVED: That Congress should be permitted by a two-thirds majority vote to over-ride any decision of the Supreme Court declaring an act of Congress unconstitu- tional. Not the least of our extra-curricular activities is de- bate. Members of Alpha Sigma Theta readily responded to the tryout challenge. After the teams were organized, practice debates were held with jackson junior College, Albion College, and Flint junior College. Of these many debates participated in only a few were judged. Although the decisions werent always in our favor, ex- perience has been gained which will definitely contrib- ute to our success in the future. This doesnt mean that our efforts were in vain, for there were victories for us this year. Our interest was enlivened by the prospect of a tournament in Greenville, Illinois. The schools taking part in this were Spring Arbor, Chesbrough, and Green- ville. In the final round of the tournament Spring Arbor Affirmative and Negative teams were both vic- torious, thus bringing Spring Arbor the district honor of winning the first tournament of its kind. However, this did not complete the season. As soon as the debaters reached home they immediately plunged into another tourney, in which all the .lunior Colleges of Michigan were participants, Here Spring Arbor broad- ened its acquaintance and set a precedent. On this occa- sion the Affirmative won its debate over Detroit Insti- tute of Technology. On the whole the season has been very interesting and profitable, and we look forward to next year with eagerness. fHAuRii2'r'i'iz Boitiis 146757 Fix, 4.... Y Y-..7-.-.HY-- ' .

To partake in any of these contests re- quire effort, training, and skill, These also give the par- ticipants good experience in learning to speak. There are three contests. The first is the High School Declamatory, open to all Freshmen and Sopho- IDOICS. In 1955 Gene Peters won the Declamatory con- test, and Ivan Darby in 1936. There is also a High School Oratorical contest. In this the selections are written by the students themselves, and some very fine orations have been given. In 1936 Margaret Woelfle carried off the honors in this contest, and also first place in the state sub-district oratorical contest. In 1955 in place of an Oratorical contest the Juniors and Seniors gave an Interpretive Reading contest, in which Faith Wells won first place. In the College Declamatory contests there has been some splendid work done. In 1955 the winner was Rose Ambrose and in 1936 Lorraine Dowley. These contests have been a means of entertainment but also of something far more worth while than that. Those taking part have received lasting value even though they may not have taken a prize. -BETTY ELLEN Cox Contest Winners College Declamatory, First Placc-Lorraine Dowley College Declamatory, Second Place-Vernon Dunckel High School Declamatory-Ivan Darby High School Oratoricul-Margaret Wcmelfle -F T1 X .

To understand Nature is to appreciate more and more the exquisite work of Gods fingers. just so with school life, the closer we come in contact with each other the more we understand, the more the chords of love, friendship, and workmanship are in harmony. This is one reason why we have maintained the Co' operative committee which has been substituted these last two years for the former Student Council. It consists of a more compact group, comprising one student from each class, chosen by the student body, and two counself lors from the faculty. The student representatives give the viewpoint of the student body as L1 whole to the faculty, while they in return have the students share with them some of the intricate problems that are being con- stantly forced upon them. As more contact is made be- tween these members, more unity is felt, The council is continually working to secure the best interest of both the student body and school. Bacon says, The best receiptfbest to work and best to take- is the admonition of it friend. We feel it is not only our duty but our privilege, not to govern, but to serve. !EvrLu'N Vo1.Li2R 1 936 5t.1nding:Osc.ir Kenney, Lloyd Knox, Homer Hull, Pintcss-ii Scliwaizentiauh. hitting: Pauline jones, Miss Warner, Clcora Mottatt, Evelyn Voller. cc69w ri-Q--N-W - --- .,- - -- branding: Woeltle, Mac Phee, Briggs, Maxwell. bitting: Warner, Thrapp, Lowell, Dowley.

H arriette G. Warner' Obitu The Echo Staff was born the eighth day of February, 1935, and died the first day of june, 1936. Its early life was char- acterized by intermittent and spasmodic growth. Early rela- tionships were not ideal, and unfortunate conditioned re- flexes were learned during its first spring and summer months wherein a condition of dormancy was produced at the mere sight of work. However, with the coming of Fall and the prospect of more work, this reflex had to be unlearned, and so, under the competent direction of Miss Wfarner, new motor habits and muscular co-ordinations were rapidly gained. Physical and emotional maturity was reached during the first of October, and on the twenty-first of the month the Echo Staff was ubited in marriage to the Schoenwald Engraving Corporation. Soon after, it took on vows of polygamy. and on the fifteenth of November entered into its second marriage, with the David J. Molloy Cover Plant, Three more marriages were contracted between December, 1936, and May, 1956, the bridegrooms being in order: The o Staff of 1936 Assistant Editor .......................,....., ..........

The Staff is thought to have died from general old age, senility, and debility. Contributing to the final illness were acute conditions of overwork, tremendous financial worries, and frequent attacks of insomnia. Left to mourn QD the loss are the five husbands-who no doubt have found new comforting companions-a host of re- joicing enemies. and lastly the only child, the 1935-'56 Echo. This crushing blow has come as a great relief to all the Staffs friends and acquaintances. It is hoped that the child has been brought up in the proper nurture and admonition of good year books and will be a credit to the worthy name and traditions of its honorable forbear. In closing let us say that the The Echo Staff, weak and infirm though it was, filled a needed place in the world and accomplished its purpose, May she rest in peace. -THE EDITOR e -v S., x Brute Cox, Business Manager: Mrs. Nystrom, Faculty Adviserg Kenneth Hutt, Assistant Business Manager. it by r-,, I S., X ,sg 5 111,53 Q 1 9? fbobfl 4004 xxoe 51' ALWX L a.c5 X, If ,xx 1 4 1 w 4172 Snaps 1-G reenville Trip. 2- 2+3:2. 5- Steam Engine Stallyf' -l- Thoroughbreds. 5- Honeyboy and Sassafras. 6-Campus Snow. 7- ----- and family. 8 ,. - just before the bedbugs, Mother. 9- That little boy of mine. 10- All that garbage. 11- Meat Man. 12-lce Cutting. 15- l'm looking for Ll Sweetheart. 1-i- Thumbs were made before cars. 15- That Irish Muscle. 16- From Kalarnazoo direct to you. 17- just Pals. 18- Sisterly Love. 19-- Nobody Home.
