It was opened in a building known at the time as ('umberhmd Academy. This building had been erected by the Kirksvillo Presbytery of the Cumberland Presbyterian Church for school purposes, just at the outbreak of the Civil War. It stood on the site of .Judge Cooley’s residence in the north part of town. President Baldwin did not come to Missouri merely to establish a private normal school. He came with tlie definite purpose of building up an institution of such excellence as to induce the State of Missouri to make it one of a number of state normal schools. He therefore began at once to advocate a system of six normal schools in Missouri. He was joined by several prominent educators in the state in his campaign, and as a result the Legislature of Missouri enacted a law in March. 1870, providing for two state normal schools, one on either side of tin Missouri River. The location of these two institutions was left to a Board of Regents. Shortly after the Legislature passed this bill providing for two state normal schools, various counties prepared bids for the location of these institutions and submitted them to the Board of Regents. Adair and Livingston counties were active competitors for the school north of the Missouri River. On December 29, 1870, the Board of Regents accepted the bid of Adair County and located the 1‘irst District Normal School at Kirksvillo. The faculty of the Northeast Missouri Normal School was then made the faculty of the newly created State Normal School with .Joseph Baldwin as president. When, therefore, the students returned to Kirksvillo in .January, 1871, after the Christinas holidays, they re- turned to a state institution. The First District Normal School continued to use the building in which it had been founded as a private institution until .January, 1873, when il occupied what is now the main building on the present campus. 'This old building, now known as Baldwin Hall, was for nearly thirty years the only building on the campus. In 1901 Library Hall was built as a wing on the east of the main building, and in 1905 Science Hall was erected as another wing on the west. This last building was burned to the ground on September 18, 1918, and was rebuilt in the winter of 1918-19. President Baldwin remained with the institution until ISS1 when he resigned to ac- cept the presidency of the Sam Houston Normal Institute at Huntsville, Texas. Since that lime the presidency here lias been filled by W. P. Nason, protein, 1881-82; J. P. Blanton, 1882-91; W. I). Dobson, 1892-99; and John R. Kirk, since 1899. The annual enrollment of students lias steadily grown from the beginning. At the end of the first year there were 140 students in what was called the normal department. t the caul of last year there were 1495 enrolled for residence work in the college and high school departments exclusive of the practice demonstration schools. In addition there wen 371 enrolled for correspondence and extension study, making a total of 1806 for tin year. The faculty has likewise grown in numbers. !n the first year there were only six members in the faculty. This year there an fifty not including student assistants. 'There has also been a great growth in the scope of work of the institution and a great advance in its educational standards. 'Phis is especially t rue in the last ten or fifteen years. 'Twenty years ago a giaduate of an approved four year high school was ordinarily able to get the highest diploma of the institution in one year's time. But gradually the require- ments for graduation wer increased, and by 1912 four years or 120 semester hours of college work were required for the highest diploma which not only confers the lif. certificate to teach in Missouri but also the degree of B. S. in Kducaticn. By that lime the institution had become a teachers college. What was true at Kirks- ville was also 1 rue at the four other State Normal Schools in Missouri. In recognition of this fad. the Legislature of Missouri changed the names of these institutions to State Touchers Colleges n a bill approved on May ‘20. 1919. i PlIKSIDKNTS OK THE INSTITUTION w. P.

Our first officers were President, Roy Jalley; Vice President, Oma Drake; Secretary and Treasurer, Anna Collett. We can not boast of coming up through the three years of our College life together, an unbroken group, for the work of the class as an organization was only fairly begun when it was interrupted by the war. After the armistice was signed our boys came home and things began to as- sume a settled condition. We reorganized our class during the spring quarter 1919. Ralph Stickler was chosen president. Our faculty sponsors were Mr. Dalton and Miss Gray. This our Junior year, we consider the best. We have retained our former president. Besides Mr. Dalton and Miss Gray we have added four faculty spon- sors, Dean Zeigel, Mr. Pyle, Miss Durland and Miss Patterson. All have been true sponsors. We are especially grateful for their suggestions and kind assistance with this edition of the Kcho. We have many well known students in our class. Russell Malleit, “the ora- tor from the Ozarks” is President of the Student Senate. Miss Elma Poole is Registrar and Lois Drake, Secretary in the office of President Kirk. The class is especially well represented in athletics. The boys won the inter- class basketball championship. Four have football and baseball K's. To name all the important events in the history of the class would be to enum- erate the eventful epochs in the life of each and every one of its members. How- ever, our history would hardly be complete without mention of the 'possum hunt which occurred November 20. 1919. It is one of the memorabit events of our Junior year. While at first planned only for pleasure it proved to be an achieve- ment and we will use it as a symbol of greater things we might attain. Kai.ph Sticklkk. President.

Af- ter the usual formality Charles 10. Singlcy was elected president and Pauline Hous- ton secretary. Later a vi(«-president, (1. Yerlin Brasahsw, a treasurer. Ethelyn Simmons and a historian, Hannah Whit acre, were elected. As the class is practically a new class not all of them being here last year, we haven’t much to boast about. We do have the distinction of having the highest percent of ex-service men of all the classes. Two men made their letters in foot- ball last fall. One of these played on the famous football team of 19I( . Several of the ladies will win their letters in Campustry and Hallology this spring and summer. Of course the men will not be excluded from this form of study and will be entitled to said letters. Within this class are scientists, dairymen, pedagogs. musicians, manly-men, maids and mutton heads of tin very highest typo. In fact, no duplication of such a class could lx made. . As we have no possum hunts as the upper classmen have to boast about and our snipe hunt was postponed we have to lay our claim to tin unusual by claiming the honor of having the only class officer of the classes married this year. Cl. Verlan Bradshaw was so thankful Thanksgiving that he took a person pci ma- nent ly to share his joys. Th( Sophomore class met at his home one evening and enjoyed his cigars until he and his wife returned from an evening call then they were induced to walk to the end of South Franklin Street. From there, with Mrs. Bradshaw riding and Bradshaw hitched to tin buggy tin bridal procession marched to the square and back. By this time Bradshaw was ready to say “Never again. —31 — (I. kickw Bradshaw, Vice-President. Pauline I Iovston. .Secretary-Treasurer.

The easiest way to tell if a person has a big brane is to look how high their forhed is men with bald hods not counting. There are meny ixpressions about branes meening a persin hasent got mutch sents. of them being as follows: 1. ITavent you env branes? Meening. T la vent you meny branes? 2.

Meening when you was born you had more branes than what you got now. Some branes are belter at some things than wat they are at others. A persin mite be the best one in the class at arithmetic, but if you asked him the boundry of Asia he mite not even anser. This proves it takes all sorts of people to make a werld. Boys think they have more branes than gerls. and vica virtue. Boys says gerls have long hair insted of having more branes. but gerls say they have long hair besides having more branes. Both may be rite in some cases. Animals have branes but they dont know the reason. Animals think because they cant help it and not because they want to and know its a fine thing to do. Horses and dogs have the most branes of all the animals, and cats and insecks have the leest. A poor man can have as mutch branes as a rich man, being a little consolation but not enuff. Spring Coming BY WALT MASON OON t In farmers will lx farming, plowing up the bosky Hells, skies will soon be blue and ebanning, and the breezes wearing bells. Kvery day is bringing nearer spring, the season 1 we admire; and this precious thought grows clearer as I feed tin furnace lire. When I'm shaking down the ashes, when I'm heaving in the coal, this reflection goes a-flashing through the fibre of my soul: and I wave the rusty poker and 1 slam the furnace door, for I will not need to stoke her, in the spring time, anymore. Oh, the winter winds are chilling, and they jolt us when they strike, but the springtime’s calmly drilling somewhere up the dusty pike; and she's bringing birds and roses and a swarm of bumble bees; we forget our frosted noses when we think such t hough! as these. Spring is coming, gentle reader, with that luscious smile of her's, and t he farm- er with his seeder will be sowing cockleburs, and we'll get up picnic parties in the sylvan dells and glades, where the happy village smartics will escort the giggling maids; and we'll be knee deep in clover, and forget our every sore, for the winter will be over, and the spring will have the floor. so —fi I Wai.do Wm.iv, Vice President Euzabkth Sizemokb, Secretary Class Boll Atherton, Marion G.

Mopage of Class of 1923 aS histories are very dry and uninteresting to most people, perhaps the reader, after having perused the histories of the other classes now would enjoy taking a stroll down to the wharf by the sea. where many ships are making preparation to set sail. There is an air of hustle and bustle, everyone is busy. Looking about us a lit lie, our attention is attracted by the sight of a beautiful little ship with snowy sails, beautifully polished decks, and freshly painted sides. On the decks, we see many persons, all busy getting everything in readiness to cast off to sea. The reader may have discovered by this time that this ship with its crowded decks is the Freshman Class, distinguished because of great bustle and activity. There is one person, the captain of the ship whom all seem to respect. This is our worthy president. Close by his side is a person of stately bearing, the first mate or the vice-president of the class. But the eye will then turn to the sweet and modest damsel who modestly and quietly aids in the busy preparations. This is our Secretary and Treasurer. Many other willing workers, all essential in making the coming voyage a suc- cess, engage our attention, but space forbids a separate description of each. Suf- fiet to say. each possesses a striking individuality, which adds much to the effi- ciency of the ship and its crew. Since the coming voyage is a rather long one. we watch with interest this modest vessel as it puts to sea. At the captain’s orders, the first-mate replies, “aye, aye sir,’ which is echoed by all the crew, tin sails arc hoisted and the ship moves on its way. The water is calm and a gentle breeze blows them calmly across the waters. The crew must not allow discouragement or the spirit of dishonesty to enter and cause mutiny, for the future depends much on them. Year by year, the ship, manned by the persevering crew and guided by the gentle breeze of know- ledge will sail steadily onward. Step by stop the stages of the journey with won- drous experiences in strange lands of wondrous beauty, such as various studies shall reveal, will pass until in the year 1923, our ship shall come to anchor safe in the harbor of (Iraduation, the goal and end of the journey.

The club sang also under the direction of Miss Adolfson before the Sojourners Club; and again in assembly presented a very beautiful program of selections from the famous Meissner “Art Song Cycles. Work was begun during the winter quarter on a cantata for the Spring Fes- tival, to be given in company with a hundred children from the ward schools. Jr:an McKini.kv Secretary of Senate QTlje ££ tubent Senate anb Council Student Semite was organized in 1915; Dave Neal was its first m C president and Phradie Wells its first secretary. Holbert was elected I for the second year and Cecil Claves came in as third executive. War conditions then disturbed tin school and the school organization ceased to exist for a year. Cnder the leadership of O. H. Kddins, a campaign to reinstate the student organization was begun and successfully accomplished, during the summer term of 1919 and R. S. Mallett was selected as president and Miss Jean McKinley as secretary. The need of such an organization in our school had been felt for some time before it was installed. The faculty felt a need of being closer to the students but the majority of the students looked upon them as a body of super men and women with whom they had no right to come in contact save upon extraordinary occasions and during class recitations and other eases of necessity. To remedy this embarrassing situation the Student Senate was called into being. I’ntil this time there were but two links in the chain: the students and the faculty. These two links were of too diverse sizes to link together and function properly so the Student Senate, supposedly the leaders of the student body, were called in to servo as a medium or connecting link, thus creating a continuous chain. The Student Senate has the power, granted it by the school authorities, to discuss and pass upon any school problem hut without the power of enforcing it without the consent of the president of the school. Mr. Kirk as yet has pursued an extremely liberal policy with the student organization and has never yet an- nulled or modified a Senate measure. It would be impossible to discuss here the many activities of the Student Sen- ate. Our Student Organization has been so successful that it has become a part of us and is indispensible in disposing of many problems that confront tin students and faculty members, but with proper consideration on the part of the students and especially those who compose tin Senate, it should become vastly more im- portant and successful.

Hire, Iloll historical orictp aLWAVS young, and yet the oldest organization of the College is the distinctive record of the Historical Society. The reason is self-evident. Members of the Society believe it unnecessary to go back into the dim. dead past for the subjects to discuss at their meetings. They keep abreast of the times. Whatever the vital questions that are agitating the public mind, they are sure to find an open forum in the Historical Society. Fre- quently speakers from afar are secured. Further, during a part of the year the latest advances in the Teaching of History are reviewed for the benefit of those who are in the profession. Sometimes the presidents of the Society have had to keep a watchful eye on the History Faculty; for when great minds differ on mighty subjects, the clash and din of battle is heard. In a single moment the whole Society may he stam- peded into taking sides with one or the other of the combatants. When Mr. Vio- let and Mr. Fair take opposite views there is sure to be-well, not an argument exactly, but at least a lively discussion. Thus the Society is a true instrument in the promotion of our country’s welfare, since we are told that “democracy thrives on debate.” 'rime was, when members of the Society received Certificates of Membership which they proudly carried home in their trunks together with their diplomas and other souvenirs of a successful season in Kirksvillc. Now, however, we are too busy for anything but the essentials—and besides, printing comes high. Therefore the present members must be content with the record which memory furnishes— a memory of many Saturday mornings spent among the maps and posters in ac- quiring the most pleasant part of a higher education. —£2—'- First How—Pyli , Holt, Simmons.

Hattn Clui) students of the Latin department met Monday afternoon, m C November 3, 1910 to reorganize the Latin Club. The follow- J ing officers were elected: Thelma Gregory, President; Eunice .Iones, Vice-President; ('ordia Callahan,Secretary. The pur- pose of the Latin Club is to promote interest in the life and literature of the Romans by a study of many topics that bear on the work in the class room but for which there is no time for discussion during the class per- iods. Furthermore, the purpose is to encourage a wholesome social life among the members of the club. From the activities stated below it may be seen that the purpose lias been fully carried out and greatly enjoyed. Since (lie reorganization, tin- club members have enjoyed studying Roman sculptors, manners and customs. Upon a suggestion from Dr. Kirk the club gave a program in assem- bly. to show the influence of Latin in the various departments in school. First How IVliken. Jones, H lx rt on. Green.

Bramattc Cluit ITU a well known club as the Dramatic Club, needs no intro- duction nor any recounting of its history. This year the club has had an unusually good membership and good meetings. So far the only play produced has been “Old Fashioned Roses’’ the annual Rural Life play. This was quite successful and besides the two performances at tlx College it was given in a number of rural com- munities. The production of an Ibsen play is being planned for sometime later in the year. The most important thing which has happened to the club for a num- ber of years occurred when the dream of a Little Theatre was realized. For years the club members had hoped that such a Little Theatre could be had and it was an ideal towards which they have been working for some time. Now the dream is a reality. The model Rural School, south of Li- brary Hall, has feen converted into an art theatre. Here the classes in dramatics can meet and try all kinds of experiments in staging, lighting and general production of plays. Thus it will be a dramatic workshop. But best of all it will be a home for the Dramatic Club, a place which the members can look at and say with pride. “Here is a building which stands for the achievement of our desires for the promotion of all that is best in the drama. ” - Sil— Top How H.slmon, (‘oll. it, O’N'cil, Bradshaw, Settle, Wale, Davis.

The books show Paul Barnett to be the first Student janitor. For the purpose of organization a club was formed in 1911. 'Phis was not for the purpose of striking for higher wages or shorter hours but rather to promote the spirit of good fellowship. Athletic teams have been one of its products. The old timers remember the baseball game between the faculty and the janitors in the summer of 1912. Of course the highbrows dragged the banner of the dusters in the dust, yet some elevor individual playing was displayed by the dusters—especially Mr. Jack’s base sliding. Some of the school’s greatest athletes as: Hoy Neff, Bill Chambers, Ralph Cammack. and others of equal or nearly equal caliber, have been wielders of the broom and mop. Their service flag contains thirty-four stars which shows that they had. at least, a small share in the great strug- gle.

It interprets the common things on every hand as romantic, beautiful and adventurous. The simplest routine home duties are made ap- pealing and worth while thru the wholesome interpretation ( amp Fire place-; on them. Girls are led to express their ideals, desires and visions thru the svmb lism in the ceremonial gowns, the songs and the meetings. Girls are trained to love and find delight in the simplicity and beauty of the out-of-doors. Honors are won by learning definite things about nature-lore. Birds, tie s. grasses and so on are studied directly in the out-of-door meetings, on the hikes and during the camping trips. Thru Camp Fire lift a girl is trained in team-work also. Not only is she given an opportunity to develop and enrich her own particular individuality, but she is led to make this enriched personality of hers an asset to the group. A girl must become a social creature in order to be a successful Camp Fire girl. She must learn to work with the group—smoothly, willingly and unselfishly if she is to get the richest benefits. In the group life a girl has the privilege of learning the truth so many matured people have never accepted: that the welfare of the individual is of less importance than the welfare of the whole social group. The law of the Gamp Fire shows thru its seven points how a girl is trained to develop herself, not for herself alone, but that she may be a trustworthy, happy, unselfish and earnest member of society and a leader of girls. The seven points of the law are: Seek Beauty, (live Service, Pursue Knowledge, Be Trustworthy, Hold on to Health, Glorify Work, Be Happy.

Violet te Alpha Sigma Alpha is a national normal school sorority whose aim is the intellectual, physical, social and moral development of its members. The national director of the or- ganization is a college woman with a keen knowledge of girls, having worked with them and for them during a period of thirty years. The local chapter is directed by a faculty adviser and a group of representative women of the town known as patronesses who help the girls to solve the various problems which they confront. Alpha Beta cheerfully «lid her share to relieve the suffering and hasten the day of victory in the Great World's War. Likewise she lias generously contributed to the Student Loan Fund of K. S. ML CL The benefits resulting from the congenial co-operation afforded by the group life of the sorority are par- liamentary training, some business experience, advice in solving social and moral prob- lems. It furnishes social good times and forms close friendships which bind alumnae to each other and to the school. Alpha Beta is occupying a chapter house this winter. Ml Sigma Sigm Sigma tgma tgma Signia e 'REEK letter life builds up separate, yet closely associated groups of girls. These groups, through their organized strength, serve the individual girls of the group and the community as a whole. Soror- ity life itself stands for these two things; the development of girls as individuals, and the development of the group life of girls for the benefit of pro- fessional life and societ v. Sigma Sigma Sigma stands for sisterhood among all girls, for loyalty to our Alma Mater, for the highest professional standards and for earnest, patriotic service to society. Within the circle of sorority life itself, there is the charm of steadfast friendship. Bonds are formed during school days, that will hold through all of the years to come. Girls find strength in meeting girls with mutual ideals and aims- unsteady, impulsive desires grow into the firmest, most definite of noble purposes under the guidance' of the uplifting principles of Greek Letter Life. Sorority life, from without, as it reaches the community, is organized service. 'Through leadership and fine-spirited cooperation in the school and professional life, the church, community projects and social service organizations, the girls of Sigma Sigma Sigma strive always to give service willingly and with the daunt- less watchword of “Carry On.” CHAPTER POLL Virginia Ball Fern Bohrer Phyllis Bryson Velda (’ochran Lulu Durland Nancy Edwards Het lie (la I breath Bertha Goet ze Ruth Grassle IIorten.se Ilalladay Pauline Houston (‘lai ice Lehr Mabel Lehr Mary Maud Markey Nancy Murphy Mildred Paine Kathleen Peary Mildred Rieger Nellie Rogers Thelma See Hilda Seyb Elizabeth Sizemore .Julia Y hit acre Hannah Whitacre — 101 — Bon’ts 1.

As she concluded her talk Mildred Nullon struck the chords of a lively march and the president gave the drum beats that rallied all the members to the cause -around and around they marched with much laughter and general racket. When a call was given for recruits and the line of marchers grew longer and more long, shouting as they marched. Your pep, your pep, You’ve got it, now keep it, Dog-gone it, don’t lose it. One hundred and twenty-five girls responded. everything was going smoothly when Miss Heed, field secretary, paid us a much welcome visit. Oct. 1 lth-12th. Miss Hoed crowded her few hours with us to their utmost capacity with individual meetings and group meetings and yet found time to make two splendid talks in the auditorium. We cannot omit nor treat too lightly the meeting of Oct. 8th at the home of Miss T. Jennie Green on her lawn. As a fitting compliment to the display of Mother Nature about her each girl gave a quotation from nature and Miss Dur- iam! read beautifully “The Heart of the Woods” by Alfred Noyes. Before the girls had ceased to talk of the beauty of the meeting there came the joint picnic of the Y. M. (’. A. and the Y. W. (.’. A. at Own bey’s Lake. Much of the time was spent in rowing, but when the sun was set all went ashore and gathered about the fire. Every group has its budding genius. Mr. Glascock proved to be the one on this occasion. “I didn’t Raise My Pup to Be a Weinie” was his contribution. To go on to the more serious side of the organization—the Y. W. A. in 191 ) won the blue ribbon for finance because of the Supply Stand which is still in existence and doing a large business. One of the chief points, by which the stand won the ribbon, is that it fulfilled a need rather than creating one as in the event of bazaars. The association sent a delegation of three young women to the student Volun- teer Convention at Des Moines from Dec. 31st to Jan. 4th. It is indeed encouraging to see in these after the war times an organization keep up its “pep” as this one has done. IOI— Cl IK Y. M. C. A. is one of tin oldest organizations in school. It was organized in March 1896 with Mr. V. Hatcher, now living at 712 10. Scott. Kirksville. Missouri, as the first presi- dent. Shortly after it was founded it started the Lecture Course that we still have each year. This year the Lecture Course con- sisted of six numbers: Frances Ingram. Madam Labadie, Larado Taft. Victor Berger. IOllis Parker Butler, William Butler Yeats. For several years, the Y. M. C. A. has been managing a book ex- change where students may list their books for sale or purchase used books. The exchange is located on “B floor near the agriculture office. Our old exchange room has been transformed into a rest room where you may find the weary and book-worn fellows any time during the day. The 1919 Y. W.-Y. M. C. A. annual picnic was held at Ownbey’s Lake on a Saturday afternoon in September. —loo— (gafafiltngs Mabel Lehr (carrying :i skeleton): I'm gonna slay as long ns Mr. Heed will lei me keep his bones. ” IN DESIGN CLASS Ivy Dougherty: “Say, 1 just hate to make hands, don't you Ida?” Ida S.: “I'd rather make eyes.” .lack Ilaferkamp to Glaseoek: “Why don't you pipe down?” Glascock: “Of what use would it be to live, if one heard only one's voice.

At the outset of the war the watchword of the allies was munition, later it was man power, but not until the world's food supplies became noticeably short did the allies awaken to the gravity of the situation. That Germany would have won the war had not the United States furnished food is a foregone conclusion. Today wo are approaching the second anniversary of the signing of the armis- tice and a large part of Europe is still crying for food. The farmers of the United States must furnish the biggest percentage of food to relieve the hunger in Europe. Therefore? the need of greatest production with the least expense is as keenly felt today as at any time during the war. Likewise' the need of the scientifically trained man in agriculture is as keenly felt today as at any time during the war. The State' Teachers College at Kirksville realizing that the demand for teach- ers of agricultural subjects and along vocational lines would greatly exceed the supply has arranged a curriculum of courses to suit the needs of those who wish to engage in agriculture and other vocational work. The agricultural department, with its creamery and state farm, cooperating with the manual arts department will in a short time be equipped t train voca- tional agricultural teachers and other teachers of agriculture below college rank, as well as any institution of the state. The salaries of the following named persons who are teaching vocational agriculture in Missouri, will give an idea of the success of some of our graduates: A. F. 1'lsea. Palmyra, 81920. (). H. Eddins, Macon, 81900. .J. S. Burnside, Huntsville, 82000. Wallace Graves, Richmond, 81950. L. Y. Grookshank, Hamilton, 82400. There arc many students in school now who have a vocational education in view and no doubt many more will follow when they learn of the opportunity await- ing them. The day will soon have passed when teachers will receive less pay than the unskilled laborer, and positions as teachers of agriculture are among the most remunerative. Young men are needed as never before, and the way is open to you. Dairy Laboratory Vocational Aiiiucvitpkk Ciass IX'ilton, (Sentry. Coehran. Clevenger, Columii, Murphy. Vright. HrwUhnw, Cnhlwell.

Something more is required; knowing what to do how to do it and why it is done are the essentials necessary to satisfactorily supply the needs of the home. In the Home Economies department girls are given the opportunity to know how to save time, money and energy in the managing of a household, as well as purchasing, preparing and serving delicious foods. In Household Arts the training goes beyond merely learning to stitch a scam or follow a pattern. Buying material and ready-to-wear garments intelligently; knowing what lines and colors are becoming: testing fabrics to know if they are adulterated, mak- ing appropriate1 gowns and hats—all are parts of the training. So many girls have become interested in this work after their first courses that they consider preparing to teach Home Economies. It is a growing field, supported now in many high schools by the National government. The train- ing of these teachers is prescribed so closely that only a few schools can meet the requirements. Wo are qualifying now to he able to give training in Home Economics for the prospective teacher of Vocational Home Economics as well as the girls who want it only for their own use. Ask us. Cafeteria Houck u Cooking Laror.moky ’akktkkia Dimnc Room jtlatfjematics in a tEeacfjerg College XN the light of recent world events the practical value of mathematics is evident to all. It not only has a utilitarian value but it is the instrument for prosecuting studies and research in every science. No greater triumph can come to an investigator than to be able to put his conclusions into mathematical form. In addition to the study of arithmetic in the elementary school, from one to two years of mathematics is required in most of our high schools. 'This places a definite responsibility on teachers of high school mathematics to give to their students an insight into the possibilities of the subject and at the same time make the study meet life’s actual demands. For just such purposes a committee of the American Mathe- matical Association is formulating a minimum two years course in secondary mathematics. Very likely suggestions will also be made for a one year course. It is evident that a great responsibility rests on the teachers of mathematics in elementary and high schools. It is equally certain that oven greater re- sponsibility rests upon the Teachers College to prepare teachers for the task of teaching mathematics. For this purpose, in addition to the regular courses in secondary mathematics, the mathematics department at Kirksville offers 30 hours of college mathematics. It is assumed that the successful teacher of mathematics must have both skill in presentation and knowledge of subject matter. To secure these results four teachers of mathematics in Teachers College give their time and energies to classroom instruction. The sugges- tions of committees on reorganization of courses of study as well as educational tests and measurements arc utilized in attempt to strengthen curricula, inter- pret results and clarify procedure. No teacher can render a greater service than does the teacher of mathemat- ics. He is dealing with a fundamental science upon whose advance the world's progress waits. Professor William James aptly says: “The extraordinary progress of the last three hundred years is due to a rather sudden finding of the way in which a certain order of questions ought to be attacked, questions ad- mitting of mathematical treatment. The function of mathematics in a Teach- ers College is increasingly important. Capable teachers of mathematics are in demand and the field is not overcrowded. 0HKMI8TKY l.AHOKATOKY Physics Laboratory Commerce DIARY OF A STl'DKNT IX THIS DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE Sept. 9- Enrold in school and decided to conserve energy bv not climbing so many flights of stairs so elected my work in the Commerce Department. Met some well-meaning students today who are gifted with frankness and they told me that I surely had a snap. Sept. l(j—The first week is over. My snap course seems to have been made without the snap. In Typewriting I have tried in vain to make a perfect copy and fgjh and rtyu seem a part of me. I insist on calling a debit a credit and a credit a debit in Bookkeeping. Shorthand is a Chinese puzzle. Sept. 23 The skies are beginning to clear. I can write a few shorthand characters and debits and credits do not bother me so much. Sept. 30—Mr. Selby took the joy out of life by telling me how much of my Bookkeeping work I should have completed by this time. I see myself carrying home that small package of material each night for a week and burning the mid- night oil to got the work in at least a week after it is due. Oct. 7 I’m worried. I fear that writing shorthand will ruin my penman- ship and writing words by sound will play havoc with my spelling. Oct. 14. Still worried. Have been informed that I am behind in my Type- writing.

LATIN A dead subject is what a few people call it, who do not know of the wonderful de- scriptions and beauty of style in which the literature of the Romans abound. Ovid’s in- terpretation of the House of Rumor is translated in the following. “There is a place in the middle of the sky, twixt land and sea and sky, the meeting point of the three-fold universe. From this place, whatever is, however far away, is seen, and every word penetrates to these hollow ears. Rumor dwells here, having set her house upon a high mountain top; and she gave the house countless entrances, a thousand aper- tures, but with no doors to close them. Night and day the house stands open. Ii is built of echoing brass. The whole place resounds with confused noises, reports all words and doubles what it hears. There is no quiet, no silence anywhere within. And yet there is no loud clamour, but only the subdued murmur of voices. Crowds fill the halls, shifting throngs come and go and everywhere wander thousands of rumors, falsehoods mingled with truth, and confused reports flit about. Some of these fill their idle cars with talk, and others go elsewhere and tell what they have heard; while the story grows in size, and each new teller makes contribution to the tale. Rumor herself beholds all that is done in heav- en, on sea, and land, and searches throughout the world for news.” GERMAN Because we have had war with the Germans is no reason why German should not be taught in our public schools. Can we drop all relations with German speaking people because of the wrong that some of that tongue have done? England and France said since Germany is our enemy we will learn her language, the American people said since our boys must do guard duty in Germany we will place them at a great disadvantage. We do not admire but hate the principles of the former German empire but if Germany was swept from the map we should remember that there are other nations in whom we art? interested that speak the German tongue or a tongue that is closely allied to that tongue. Poland, Switzerland, and two and one half millions of the Czccho Slavic Republic are German speak- ing people. As in French, so in German important discoveries of science are published. A professor at Harvard declared that many civil engineers are greatly hindered because they cannot read the important books in German on that subject. —121 iflmtual draining Department XN the Manual Training Department this year we have had two main objects in view, namely—the organization and reorganization of the subjects offered into well defined courses of study; and, the addition of such now courses as were practical with our present rooms and equipment. To further explain these objects: In reorganizing the courses of study it was realized that wo are situated here in what is mainly an agricultural community, and for that reason a great deal of the subject matter for manual training work should consist of practical farm problems. Especially is this true of the woodworking courses and encouragement and suggestions for useful farm projects have always been made. It has been the aim in outlining this course' to have the first two quarters include the study and use of the main tools, joints, kinds of lumber and hardware, used in woodworking, and to make complete working drawings of all projects selected for construction. Then the student is ready to further apply this knowledge of the fundamentals along whatever line his interest lies. This may be done in either ‘‘Farm Shop Work “Furniture Making” or ‘‘Lathe Work.” The “Farm Shop Work” is a new class just organized this fall and such things as hog houses, hog feeders, chicken coops, chicken feeders, trap nests, show crates, etc., ere made. Not all the woodworking is along agricul- tural lines however. The “Furniture Making” course includes the construction of pieces of furniture suitable for either city or country homes. In all this work originality in design and construction is emphasized and encouraged. The class in “Forge Work” have made practical projects from iron and tool steel. Beginning with the fall term a class in gas engines was started. This is the beginning of such a course in this school and we are handicapped of course by lack of room and equipment, but the need for an extensive course in this work is felt. The era of power farming is here, and adequate instruction along this line must be given by schools located in agricultural communities if we are to aid in America's reconstructional program. It is hoped that eventually courses covering stationary gas engines, automobiles, trucks, tractors, and general power farming machinery may lx organized, with adequate equipment for laboratory work. Other courses needed are “ Farm Building Architecture,” “Concrete on the Farm,” and “Electricity on the Farm,” covering farm lighting systems. — 121 — M wi ai.

Schuttk Okorgia Tatum Willik Whitson Cl 110 Faculty in Kdiication atjhe State Teachers College hopes, as do the other departments of our school, that “static” may bo a word tabu in our vocabulary. So from time to time new courses are of- fered, and new procedures arc adopted. Wo look upon the school as the greatest social agency of civilization, that thru its organized activities present standards of culture may lu maintained and further social progress achieved. Teachers College was the first, or one of the first, to offer an orienting course, Introduction to Teaching, in which the new student may find what the school offers, the opportunities in each field of work, and may be introduced to every activity in the college. Representatives from each department assist in giving the course. Another indication that “new occasions teach now duties” is the work in Junior High School Methods, for the junior high school movement has come to stay. And as teaching has become a learned profession it is steadily moving to- ward a more scientific basis, as our courses in Educational Measurements, and in Intelligence Tests bear evidence. The first named will enable the teacher to eval- uate and criticize his own work, and choose wisely a standard of attainment; the latter will enable the teacher to discover the mentally deficient child, as well as the mentally gifted one, and to meet their needs, yet always keeping in mind the wel- fare of the larger group. Our socialized curriculum courses aim to show that ('du- cat ion is development thru preparation for specific social activities, particulars in the world of affairs becoming the content of the curricula. Rural Sociology makes us more familiar with the economic and social aspects of the rural community problem, and better able to adapt the work of the school in its solution. The Demonstration School and the Kindergarten help the student to put into practice educational ideals, and to “learn to do by doing.” Our affiliated rural schools keep us in touch with “the other half” in our state that deserve equal ed- cational advantages with the urban children. Occasional visits in the field by means of bulletins and the Rural School Messenger and thru personal visits of the Faculty we trust are helping to fan into a brighter flame the hope that educational demoeraev is not far awav. — 1J V— 'MrCaf'C (KarrW inaction TotKe rwjht- Mr. fti erytaff —also in action 'Patty zr O -Scenery T() ?rcvnatore, rh«pi but here J t® Mr.tfo on f cy; fcmery j TTr K'rK.

This fact is not discouracing. We are merely behind time, and are slow to wake up to one of the most vital topics. Twenty-five years ago in Missouri the only subject taught relating to the human body was anatomy, so called physiology. A reaction set in to the complete dislodgement of the subject from the curriculum, for, said many, what is the value in knowing the names of the bones and muscles. They were spe- cifically correct, there being no value in that knowledge if it be unapplied. A transition stage came about when the subject of physiology and hygiene as taught was ill-organized and neglected. Teachers in teacher producing insti- tutions found little or no encouragement nor opportunity to prepare to teach top- ics relating to the human body. The department of child hygiene and public health in this State Teachers College has for its function the teaching of preventive treatment based upon a somewhat thoro knowledge of the body parts and functions, believing that as the best automobile drivers learn something of the machine in order to keep it in good condition and make simple repairs, just so those who desire to live intelligently must know something of the body mechanism. Several subjects consequently are involved in the several phases of the field. Anatomy must find a place for the body framework and gross control must be known: Physiology, to learn of normal body function is essential; bacteriology is indispensable to ascertain the relation of micro-organisms to proper and improper living. Several courses arc given to study the general relation of the environment to the normal body, including pre- ventive medicine or measures, home nursing, dietetics, personal and community hygiene, etc. Class room discussion alone is insufficient. Laboratory equipment to the extent of nearly ( 000.00 with modern tables, equipt with hot and cold water, gas, electricity and compressed air are provided. The apparatus is comprised of a large and varied list, including kymograph drume, blood pressure machines, stetho- scopes, microscopes with individual lamps, nervous tests, muscle and nerve prepa- ration appliances, etc. In field work the department looks forward to promoting careful physical tests in various communities and to the placing of competent public health nurses in every school and community. The response thus far is most encouraging. In this and in similar lines of work many, good results are anticipated in this section of Missouri. HYGIENE MUST HAVE A FOUNDATION A foundation for a functioning knowledge of hygiene is indispensible. Preparation in basic subjects, such as physiology, bacteriology, anatomy and kindred subjects is provided for in this department. 'Phe accompanying cut shows a group studying anatomy and kinesiology. Physical directors, especially, must know something of the human body as well as games and plays in order to avoid doing more harm than good to those taking such courses. -i:mi 11 YCJIKXK LABORATORY i,i i.ii:i Anatomy ('lass IB i Cberp ls djool Liar.

C. are not on the decline but the methods of acquiring experience in oral expression are entirely changed from those of a few years ago. When we call to mind the “good old days” when five or six debating clubs were flourishing and compart them with the one or two “weakly” clubs of today that are intended to promote public speaking, we are apt to be pessimistic concerning the students’ attitute toward this phase of school life, at the present time. When five or six live clubs were meeting weekly, and carrying on compe- tition with one another, it is useless to explain what fine spirit existed and what wonderful progress was made. With these last facts in mind just what justification is then in the state- ment that “Debating and Public Speaking in this school are not on the decline but that the methods of acquiring the practical experience exist in a changed form? ” In the fii’st place we have regular organized classes now, whore theory as well as practical experience is streessd. Each spring a class, open to students of college rank, is organized from which are selected two teams to represent urn- school in our intercollegiate debates, and this creates : spirit of emulation that equals that which the old time debating clubs promoted. Perl taps next in importance is-the oratorical contest that is held each fall as a part of the program of the State Teachers Association in which two prizes of .$10 and $5 are awarded to the two best speakers. The very finest opportuni- ties for practical experience in public speaking are those offered at the daily assembly periods. A great number and variety of announcements are made be foie the assembly every week and the Student Senate in bringing its business before the Assembly gives all of the students opportunity to express them- selves. The very finest opportunity for practical experience is that which is offered by our “Pep Meetings.” On an average we hold at least one “pep meeting” a week and each meeting requires two speakers. In fact there is such a demand for “pep speakers” that it is impossible to supply the demand with students so we are forced to depend upon the faculty and outsiders to a great extent. With all these advantages what a blessing it would be if a revival of the old debating clubs could be brought about, where the more timid students could effect a beginning before a crowd of sympathetic listeners of their own sex. —135— Rissell Mallett ('has.

C. g. Supply grtanti gS far as can lx told from available records, The Y. W. A. Supply Stand «latos from April 27. 1909, and was started under the active supervision of Miss Elsie Kirk. For a time the stand manager and tlie treasurer of the Y. W. (’. A. was the same office, but in 1913 the two offices were separated and have re- mained distinct. The stand manager is a member of the Y. Y. C. A. ( abinct, and is equal in rank with the officers of that association. The Stand occupied the niche in the wall now claimed by the Index, but the business grew in volume until the Tower Koom, off the auditorium, suited its needs better. This in turn had to lx abandoned, and President Kirk fenced off a corner of tlx Library Corridor in the summer of 1910. where the Stand is still holding its own. Over two hundred different girls have worked at the Slant! since it has been under the supervision of Mrs. Humphrey for the last six years. It is visited by practically all tin salesmen of stationery houses that come to Kirksville, because they re- • gard it as a strategic point in the introduction of their goods to prospective school teachers. The small profits made are given back t«j students in the form of loans, and in the financing of various good times. It has been open every school day and every period of every school day, since the fall quarter, 1913. 137 ®1)t College ©ctette No, the world can never forget, The launching of the College Octette. The wheels within those wondrous heads Buzzed on incessantly, and some one said: “That singing eight, will sing away Until the final judgment day.” Now, Howell and Weaver begin to thrum Like the rolling of a big base drum. And Sens and Kedmon with speed so rare Shot like a cannonball through the air; Then Vittcteau’s notes they split the breeze Like a cyclone's breath among the trees. But next we all search for the door When “Whiskey” and Carr begin to roar; And gentle Xulton gives us pains When forth she sends melodious strains. That singing eight! Can we forget The singing of our College Octette? ifflusitc Music was invented so that Beethoven, Handel. Chopin and all of the other composers would have an excuse for wearing long hair and saving the expense of being barbecued. Music is used at weddings to make a man forget what he is going into, and it is played at funerals to make widows forget the easy jobs they are losing. If there was no music half of Broadway could close up and 2,319,874 chorus girls would have to go to work. While the bass drum player doesn’t carry much weight it takes many pounds to run up the scale. It is the man with the brass plates that leads the cymbal life. It can be truthfully said that a professional harmonica player lives from hand to mouth. A banjo player cannot claim to make his living with the pick. The Irish harp on playing a stringed instrument. Serenaders frequently guitar and leathers. Among the great composers are ether and chloroform. OISAAaZ I'ntsT How Vanskikc, McKinley, Biggerstaff, Cloetzc, Wallace, Sublette.

M C Perhaps there is not a student, and very few faculty members, of the institu- ti I (ion who reinemlx r when it was first organized. The orchestra is known over the community for what it has accomplished. But before one speaks of what it has done, the difficulties tinder which it works should be clearly understood. First, the |MTsonnel of the orchestra changes each quarter. Second, the school is not in position to give the orchestra the money required to buy the music needed. Third, there are several instruments that are necessary to any good orchestra that should be owned by the school, but arc not on account of lack of funds. When the conditions, under which our orchestra works, have been made clear, the difficulty of preparing a concert may he appreciated. During the past three years our orchestra has given four symphony concerts at which Hayden’s first and second sympho- nies, Beethoven’s first symphony and Mozart’s “Jupiter” symphony have been given with complete success. The first two of these concerts were given to help pay for the grand piano in the auditorium. Besides giving concerts, the organization has furnished music at all the important programs and entertainments given in our school, one of the most important of which was the comic opera “Erminie.” An orchestra without a leader is helpless. One could want no better than Mr. Goetze and the greatest part of credit belongs to him for the success of the enterprises entered into. no Eljr (College $anb Tlie College Band was reorganized during the Fall term, under the leadership of Mr. Karl DiNinger. There had been no permanent organization dur- ing the preceding year because of the small number of men in school.

At the ►eginning of the fall quarter such an organization was made and at the pres- et time about twenty girls make up the personnel of the club. Membership in this organization is purely a matter of competition, as try outs are held for member- ship, as in football or other athletics. The Girls Glee Club is then a representative mus- ical organization of the College. The few public appearances that the club has made have been in assembly or at private entertainments. At the meetings of the club excellent music is studied and sung. Professor Carr, with the assistance of Miss Adolfson, directs the club.

The nucleus of the Chorus was the regular eclUge choius, and all of the people of the town were invited to come and make tin organiza- tion a success. The Chorus now has enrolled one hundred and fifty members. These are college students, high school students. A. S. O. students and townspeople. Plans are under way for a festival of music to be given in the spiing, at which time the ('hortis will render “The Messiah. 'Hie meetings of the ('horns, and the fact that the people come from all parts of the community, has given to the organization a spirit of helpfulness and co-operation. 'Phis fact together with tin fact that really good music is studied and sung, will probably make the Chorus a thing that has come to stay. Professor Carr is the director of the Chorus and the following officers were elected by the members of the organization.

The octette is composed entirely of students majoring in music, and faculty members. Esther Kcdmon, a coloratur soprano of local notoriety, is first soprano. Kath- erine Sens, whose voice has beautiful lyric qualities, is second soprano. Mildred Xulton, as first alto, displays a voice of fine dramatic possibilities. Emmaline Vittctcau as second alto possesses some of the rare qualities of the real contralto. Professor Carr and Otto Graham as first and second tenors, re- spectively, need no introduction as vocalists in Kirksvillc; nor does Ed- ward Howell, baritone of the Kompanv. John Weaver as second bass is a student of much talent and vocal ability. 'Phe Kompanv immediately after its organization began daily re- hearsals and laying plans for appearances in many towns in Northeast Missouri.

T revival in the history of the College are the violin classes, com- posed of children from the Demonstration school and the ward schools. At first only children from the former were admitted but later it was found that there would be places in the classes for others. There are three classes. They are the A” class or the advanced class taught by Mr. Jimmie Dillinger. the “Bv class, taught by Miss Louise Sublette, and the class taught by Mr. Earl Dillinger. The total number in the classes is forty-three. The children meet at the college every Tuesday and Friday, and are given instruction for about fifty minutes. The principle used in the teaching is that twenty children can be taught the same thing more easily than one. The children play the music individually and in unison. The indi- vidual playing before his classmates stimulates them to do better work and the unison playing helps to give them confidence in themselves. The work thus far has been quite successful and the interest aroused in the children has been well worth the time that is tak n to organize and teach the classes. i id Jflen’s (©lee Club CHE first boys glee club in the history of the K. S. T. ('. was organized in Sep- tember. They made their debut in assembly in October. Their next public appearance was at the Northeast Missouri Teachers Association. On Friday night, Jan. 1(5, with the aid of girls of the Aesthetic Dancing Class; Mr. Earl Musick, “Kartoonisl, and Miss Esther Ucdmon, soprano, a band benefit con- cert was given. The dances wore given in costume and with appropriate lighting effects. Mr. Musick entertainingly cartooned various characters in the college and in the opera which was to follow. Miss Redinon sang with a fuller and rounder voice than she had ever disclosed before in public. ‘‘The Grand Opera Up-to-Date” was the “piece de resistance by the glee club. This was a travesty on grand opera. The part of the leading lady, Mrs. Tyler, was taken by Otto Graham; Mr. 'Tyler, the tenant of an apartment in a modern city flat building, by Mr. G. W. “Bill” Chambers; and the kingly, indispensable head janitor was ably played by Mr. Howell. Others in the glee club took the parts of feminine beauties, fussy old ladies, dudes, and dignitaries of various sorts. u: $tano Classes IXDIYIDl’AL instruction has been superseded hy the class method in prac- tically all branches of education; and the class method is being put into prac- tice as much as possible in the Music Department. The piano is perhaps the last of musical instruments to be taught thus, but the method has been proved successful and desirable. All over the country, music directors are realizing that piano class instruction is not only desirable but necessary and in hundreds of cities this method is being established, thereby making the lessons within the reach of thousands of children who otherwise would not Ik able to study. Piano instruction in classes is now being given to children of the Demonstration School, and children of the ward schools are admitted. Three classes were organized at the be- ginning of the year with Miss Lucy Hitch, Miss Esther Clark, and Miss Signe S. Adolfson as teachers, Miss Adolfson acting as teacher in charge. Two pupils play at the pianos while the others play on the keyboards on the tables; thus, every child is playing all through the class hour either at the piano or at the keyboard. Forty children are enrolled in the piano classes and great interest is shown in this work. i IS— 110— Coach H. L.

The season of 1018 was a total failure due to the war, influenza, and a fire which destroyed the science hall in which was located the gymnasium and all athletic equipment. The blows were too much for any college to overcome in less than a year’s time, so we were forced to go through the entire season without playing a single game. Even though the facilities for athletics were greatly improved for 1919 season, the preceding season of in- activity could not have had but telling effects on t his year’s results. Only three letter men returned. They were Collins, half-back; Cammack. guard; and Claves, quarterback. The first two were on the championship team of 1910: Claves was on the 1915 team and the rest on the team who had had football experience were Cald- well of the 1910 squad; Ilaferkamp of the 1917 squad; Painter and Ilicks four years on Kirksville High School squad; Murphy, Hutchinson, and Robinson one year on Kirks- ville High School squad: Appel three years on Palmyra High School squad and one year on Moberly High School squad. The remainder of the exceedingly small squad were totally inexperienced. The problem of putting a championship team in the field was be- yond the hopes of anyone. However Coach McWilliams who was ably assisted by our old faithful alumnus Dave Neal, when he was not too busy looking after his Franklin Avenue interests, set to work on the job. But it was not long until the boys showed signs of rapid improvement and a very successful season seemed assured when several of the boys wore put on the hospital list, a condition which continued almost throughout the remainder of the season. However with all these reverses the supporters of the Purple and W hite have the loss of but two games, to regret; one to Central College, which was due to circumstances not encountered on any other gridiron in the conference; the other l Mis- souri Wesleyan, a superior team.

Glancing over the records of the Missouri Inter-collegiate Athletic Association we notice among the record holders the names of several former Teachers College Athletes. We find that .Joseph Otterson in 1012 set up a record of 1 minutes, 31 and 2-5 seconds in the mile run. This is a record that will be hard to beat. Amos Pierce in 1915 established the record of 52 2-5 seconds in the 110 yard run. The previous record was held by Otterson of this school at 52 3-5 seconds. Wallace Graves, the holder of the discus record made a throw of 111 feet in 1016. In 1917 the Bulldogs won the quarter mile relay race with a team composed of Petree, DeWitt, Piersec, and Jarman. This was the first time during the history of the Missouri Inter-collegiate Athletic Association that a relay race was ever won from a William Jewell team. During the period of the war, track and field athletics were at a low ebb but this spring track is again in the limelight. No track letter men are in school but several men of high school experience and men who have tried out in this school in years past are determined to make a showing in the State Meet such as this school has not made in years. The State Meet this year is to be held in Cameron under the auspices of Mis- souri Wesleyan College. May 21 and 22. and the Bulldogs will lx represented by the largest track team that has attended the State Meet for years. —nu— Basketball HOR the first time in the history of the institution the Kirksville State Teachers College has participated in inter-collegiate basketball contests. On account of the fuel situation basketball practice did not start until after the Christmas holidays. The school may well feel proud of the remarkable showing their team has made. Starting with a bunch of inexperienced players the team developed rapidly. The only player of any college experience was (icorgc Caldwell, captain and center of the team. Cald- well had one year’s experience on the Teachers College team af Warrensburg in 1017. Captain Caldwell and seven other players were awarded the coveted school “K” and sweater. The other men awarded sweaters were Ray Dillinger,for- ward; Glenn Dillinger, forward; Earl Looker, forward and center; Mi ley Downs, forward; Ralph Stickler, guard; Harry Jarman, guard, and Jimmie Dillinger, guard. In order to gain experience to meet the strong college teams of the state a few practice games were arranged with some strong northeast Missouri High School teams. Results of these games are as follows: Bulldogs 68 Kirksville Tigers 16 Bulldogs 47 Kirksville Tigers 20 Bulldogs, 2nd team. 42 Kirksville Tigers 22 Bulldogs Kirksville Tigers 27 Bulldogs 54 La Plata (Bull Dogs) .27 Bulldogs 52 Gault “Terriers” .26 These games proved of much benefit to the Bulldogs as may be seen by the results of the following •ollege games.

There were only four letter men on the squad W ■ W and much of the material was entirely unknown to Conch McWilliams. J The old “K” men were ‘'Whiskey” Graham, “Dick” DeWitt, Hay Dilliuger and Jimmie Dilliuger. Sparling, Dowell and Stickler were men who had been candidates previous years. The diflieult task fell to our coaeh of developing Ids usual winning team with this lather unpromising start. To add to our troubles, excessive rainfall greatly diminished the few good days for practice in the early weeks of the season. The day before the first game Stickler sprained his ankle and was out of the line-up several weeks and it became necessary to use the pitcher in his place in left field. Sparling was also out of the line-up on account of sickness and Leichty played his position at first base. The first conference game was a double header with Westminster, on Kirk Field. The Bulldogs played rather lifelessly at bat in the first game and lost it by the score of 2-1 after passing up many excellent chances to win. The second game resulted in a 1-2 victory for the Bulldogs. This was “Mack's” first appear- ance1 in the box for the Bulldogs. The next two games were with Central College, oi Kirk Field. The Bulldogs had hit a winning stride and grabbed both games l-.'h and 7-2. Prospects of a championship spurred the team on to greater efforts and we took the next two games from Missouri Valley College, at Marshall. 1(3-1 and 9-2. Graham suffered a broken collar bone in the second game and Me Reynolds had to pitch both games. Missouri alley was unable to hit him effectively at any time, while the Bulldogs scored almost ;it will. Sparling and Stickler both got back in the line-up during this series. These victories put K. S. T. second in the con- ference race. Two games remained to be played. They, were with William Jewell at Liberty. In order to win the ('hampionship it was necessary to win both games. Jewell claimed to have the best team in the history of their school and when the Bulldogs faced them we went down to defeat by the score of (3-1. We made a good start getting men on second and third in the first inning with none out, but we were unable to hit McKinney, only three hits being made off him during the game. Rain prevented the second game and the conference title word to William Jewell with K. S. T. C. finishing second. All things considered, the year 1919 was a very successful one for K. S. T.

But never before in the history of the school has there been so much enthusiasm aroused as was shown in the summer contests of 1919. This was probably due to the fact that the preceding year was the first time in the school’s history that the much coveted athletic “K was awarded in this sport. In the summer school of 1919 several tournaments were held. Men’s singles, girl’s singles, mixed doubles, men’s doubles and girl’s doubles. The winners of the above tournaments are as follows: Men’s Singles. Ralph (). Stickler. Girl’s Singles, Olive Miles. Men’s Doubles, George Davis and Earl Looker. Girl’s Doubles, Olive Miles and Elizabeth Ryle. Mixed Doubles, Ralph Stickler and Olive Miles. Tennis promises to be an even greater sport in 1920. This year plans are being made to take a team to the Missouri Intercollegiate Athletic Association meet which is held at Cameron, Missouri. We have some good material in school for a tennis team consisting of Glenn, Ray and Jimmie Dillinger. Stickler. Cald- well, Cole and Looker.

The third and de- ciding game the Freshmen played with such startling swiftness that the Juniors became rattled and could not return the ball as they had been do- ing all evening. The game ended with a score of 21 to 1 in favor of the Freshmen who received the pennant of purple and white. And now for a personal word about the players of the Freshman team. Katherine Brown, captain, played an all round good game being good both on serving and returning. Mildred Paine, also a graduate of the K. II. S., was very good on serv- ing and much of the last game was won on her serves. Cladys Hutchinson, another K. H. S. graduate covered her part of the floor well and made many returns. Wyla Snyder, another K. H. S. graduate played an exceedingly good game and was probably the best server on the floor. Belle Crimes came to us from Wvaeonda, Mo. By being tall she had a great advantage in returning balls. Kllen Nolen is from Paris, Mo. and played a very good and consistent game. 17 STUDENT LIFE I .N.'t— sSu esbion for beo'inner? — borrow a drej$ fornv from MiSS G ray Glas -00 'opervino h«5 locker aa %] have „ r Hi; 5a Pfely passed jazz' lieulsM thefl-u — will ')} the third eyebrow come next ?

Some of the amus- ing features of the evening were palm readers, the crazy house, and the freak shows such as The I'.las tic Woman, For Men Only. Why Girls Leave Home, and a swimming match.

Jan. 9 Lorado Taft, famous American sculptor, gave an illustrated lecture on “A Glimpse of the Sculptor’s Studio” or “How Statues arc Made.” Mr. Taft's talk was educative and interesting from both the art and the psychological standpoint.

Ask the Sponsors. —iso IN IS7 Cfjc 1920 Aversion of tije roberbsi A good stand in is rather to be chosen than great riches, and the favor of the Prof lather than silver and gold. The wise student laugheth at the faculty’s jokes and is passed, but the foolish smileth not and is flunked. Train up the Preshies in the way they should go and when they are Seniors they will not depart therefrom. Boast not thyself of thy future grades, for thou knowest not what a Prof may do. Listen not to the idler nor the loafer, lest thou skip the wrong class and art caught. (lo not in the way of the janitor, for he is a man of force and a po- liceman by office; his wrath when kindled is a consuming flame; but his leniency, when secured, is a balm to the trembling heart. Harken unto ns. () ye unsophisticated, and attend to the words of our mouths. Let not thine heart incline toward the fair lady; go not astray in her paths, for verily her mind is set upon the “ Princess;” the sign of the “ Pal- ace” and “Olympia” lieth in her path; she longetli for “cream choco- lates,” and her desire for “Club House Sandwiches” diminisheth not; her love of flowers increase! h daily; yea, both the sweet peas and the vio- lets are objects of her admiration. Remember now thv father in the days of II. C. L. when the calls on him come thick, for the time draws nigh when he will say unto thee, “My son, thou art no pleasure to me; shuffle for thyself.” A soft answer turneth away wrath, but a soft look opens the purse of the easy. The prudent man forseeth an examination and erammefh for it : but (.he simple discerneth it not, and gets flunked. Swipe not thy fellow-student ’s fountain pen, nor his text-book, nor yet his note-book, that thy days may be long in this great College, which the State of Missouri hath given thee.
