EDITED BY JUNIOR CLASS Defalcation TO PROFESSOR EUGENE FAIR Who by unsparing efforts and unselfish de- votion of his time has so faithfully served “This Old School in the capacity of Peda- gogue and Statesman, and in general has been so potent a factor in all things revelant to the welfare of the College, this volume of “The Echo” is respectfully dedicated.

Everyone knows that since a human mind is not a cold storage plant, it cannot retain every witicism its collegians said, every good joke his professor “got ' on it, neither can this same mind retain a perfect likeness of all classmates and fellow club members. Nor can it have “snaps” of all the pleasure excursions tin school participated in. nor can it remember just what this or that de- partment did in 1920-21. To supply this defect in nature we, the Juniors of K. S. 1'. ( have labored long and tirelessly in our endeavor to give you, the readers of this Echo, the most intellectual, most artistic, most interesting, and by far the snappiest year book the College has ever published, besides to pay tribute to our good friend. Adair County’s State Representative. Much credit, for the success of the book, is due the art department and the zealous members of the editorial staff. 1) -IO Byron Cosby George Harold Jamison II.

In other words, the class of 1921 was the lead- ing class of the school, just as it was the last three years. Below are its claims to fame: the victory of the football team over the A. S. (). was celebrated by our being tin guests to a picnic at the cliffs that night. Possum stew, roast sweet potatoes and twist was our menu. Later in the fall Mr. Cosby, one of our sponsors, entertained us at his home, great fun was the result. The first victory of the Basketball team over the A. S. O. was celebrated by a waffle breakfast at night. The president of the student senate is a Senior, the president of the Dra- matic Club is a Senior, the presidents of the three Sororities are Seniors, tin president of the Y. M. ('. A. is a Senior, tile president of the Phi Lambda Ep- silon Fraternity is a Senior, one of the Camp Fire Presidents is a Senior, the president of the Senior class is a Senior:—In other words Seven student or- ganizations have Seniors for presiding officers. The only five “K man in school is a Senior, the only member in school of the only undefeated K. S. 'I'. C. debating team is a Senior, the only pro- fessional actor iu school is a Senior, the Registrar of the school is a Senior. The Seniors have six “K” men in basketball, six in football, four in base- ball and two in track. The captain of the basketball team is a Senior, as is the yell leader. Six members of the Y. M. C. A. cabinet are Seniors. The Seniors have more married men than the rest of the classes combined and more engaged girls. One of the clerks in the office is a Senior. Two members of the faculty are Seniors. Two of the school's three Philatelists are Seniors. We have many other claims to name, but I hear the dinner bell, so will dost this History. —22— Senior Class -poem Here’s to the Class of Twenty-One, Here's to the champion team; Here’s to the boys Who have given us joys On the field and gymnasium floor. Here’s to the Class of Twenty-One, Here’s to our faculty friends. Here’s to the hearts That have beutcn with ours Thru pleasure and also thru pain. Here’s to the Class of Twenty-One, Here’s to our ’possum hunt, Here’s to t he stories That will go down with glories To generations yet unborn. Here’s to the Class of Twenty-One; We have brains, We have brawn, We have beauty; We have skill to work with, We have throats to sing with, We have hearts to love with; We have labor to be glad for, We have ideals to strive for, We have strength for enjoyment, And a wish to learn. Then here’s to the Class of Twenty-One, To the champion team, To our faculty friends, To our ’possum hunt. To our young heart thrills— Old School, we bid you adieu. —L.

Querenos saber. was ist los bei ihnen, quo vonlez-vous avoir. As freshmen, sophomores and juniors you valiantly strove in upholding the ideals and traditions of our old school. You faced the strum and drang of your teachers’ onslaught giving them blow for blow. You feared no one save the common foe of us all. Mr. Jack, president and emeri- tus of this college and high priest of the padded chairs in the janitor’s office. You instructed the faculty at what time they might arise and what time to retire. You made the sun set in the West or East at will. You were omnipo- tent. You were always greeted with success. The moon and stars shone dimly in your presence for very envy. The world threw open its door and beckoned to you. Your names were spoken with the deepest of reverence and respect. To you life was one splendid round of success and pleasure. No one for you to envv. No one to dare challenge you. 'Things moved in saccharine harmony. Selah. But alas, bismillah! Allah forfend!—there came a sadder day. The rev- erend facultas facultatum teachers called you into their offices for private con- sultations. You came out harrassed and drazzlcd. Blow for blow had not been struck as in days of yore. Your teachers sported around at nite as much as they wished e’en unto tin hour of two in the morning. 'Their alarm clocks rusted in disuse, the out time underlings had learned that after all they were dealing with no Olympic gods, but aggregation of pussy footers’, not capable of consummating their highly lx intentions. The golden rays of the sun were still shining, but not upon you. You were clothed in leaden, dull and desolate shadows. The storm cloud had completely covered you. You wen passed unnoticed. The world withdrew its arm and closed and barred its floor unto you. In one swell swoop your vaunted fame lay low in the dust, alas, alack and well a day. Ehcu! Seniors. Why. Oh why. ye mighty but fallen ones? Why, () Seniores magnorum capitum? W hy, sad bachelors and maids, did you never take that projected possum hunt?

The Juniors were organized as a class Wednesday, September 22nd. Hugh A. Vail wa elect ad President, Richard Johnson. Vice-Presi- dent. and Miss Zerva Cauby. Secretary. The President called a meeting Friday morning September 24th. At this time, Miss Pauline Houston was elected class Senator: and Mr. Swanson, Miss Simmons, Mr. Bray. Mr. Carr. Miss Johnson, and Dr. Reed were selected as class sponsors. A peppy class, well organized, with peppy leaders! On the evening of October 1st, the Juniors hiked out to Dr. George Still’s pasture where the evening was spent roasting wieners, toasting marshmallows, telling stories, singing songs, and getting acquainted. Class songs and yells were composed and practiced. The whole-school-spirit was so strong on this particular (‘veiling that no stimulus was needed to bolster up class-spirit. (They were ready to participate in the celebration of the victory of the Bulldogs over the Osteopaths as soon as they returned to town). 'Phe whole school was entertained by the Juniors Friday night, February 2nd. The entertainers knew the wants of K. S. T. (students. After soothing their spirits and firing their imaginations with special music and selected read- ings. the led them thru the dark and mysterious rooms on the fourth floor up into the roof of the tower. 'Phe only event that marred the pleasure of the tower-trip was the losing of one of the leaders. 'Phe winter air and peculiar surroundings on the tower roof gave zest to their school veils and old college songs. It was a peppy bunch that descended to eat apples and doughnuts. 'Plie history of the Junior Class will not be complete until the pep they have aroused dies out and is foigotten. 10 QUje (Quiet iPorfe The world is full of deeds to do But heroes choose a very few; They choose the kind that people cheer, That makes them noted for a year; But Juniors write, the long hours thru, The ECHO that is read in two.

UAu WTO opl)omorc Class 3|)tStorp XX the two veai that the class of 1923 has spent in K. S. T. ('. they have made themselves famous. They have shown the happy faculty of getting into the game of college life, with a vim that has proved unconquerable by competitors. Sopho- mores, with their able and worthy president, are prominent in all stu- dent activities. We are especially proud of our record in athletics. In the championship football team of 1920 four sophomores won letters. Among these was “Hutch” our all state man. Sophomores are play- ing a leading role in basketball this season, while other members promise to put the class on the map in baseball and track. A number of the Sophomores have distinguished themselves as artists, musicians, and public speakers. These add materially to the assets of the class as they are continually engaged in class activities as well as in the student enterprises of more far-reaching influence. The men are especially proud of the girls of the class. Out of a phe- nomenal membership of sixty-five we boast of forty-five “American Beau- ties,” that an unrivaled for beauty, intelligence and charming manners. Our classes in ( 'ampustry and Hallology are on the increase. In fact we expect to graduate a fewmeml ers within the next few months. The above are only a few examples of the achievements of the class. These and many others make the prospects of the Sophomores the bright- est of any class within the history of the school. If you want to be in the forefront of progress of K. S. '1'. ( get into the class of '23 and boost. tEljr £s opi)omores Here’s to the Sophomores! If you need a little cheer They will drive away your fear; The sunny smile upon each l':iee Takes them thru the tightest place. Makes them winners in the race. Here’s to the Sophomores!

They are boosters for their school, Using learning for a tool. And while others take a nap They are up with pep and snap.

Many of the brainless stunts which we m J did during the first few weeks of school we would rather forget—and many others have become an old. old story. Personally, we think our coming was an inspira- tion to the man who wrote the “Wearing of the Green.” We came from the city and the country: from the hot, trodden pave- ment of the Metropolis and the green fields of tin farm land. All to take advantage of the opportunity offered at K. S. T. ('. We have not been slow to learn ; any of our venerable fac- ulty can testify to that. For instance we soon discovered that the engine room was a popular rendezvous for devotees of Lady Nicotine; that Mr. Jack, although not the nominal head of tin institution, was the power behind the throne; that men were taboo in the Y. W. ( A. room and that the Library was a place of public frolic. Truly, we were soon initiated. The personnel of the class is record breaking in many re- spects. Our celebrities are many. What could our athletic teams have accomplished without us? Notice us in the foot- ball and basketball lineups. Among our notable contributions have been Ben Wells, Tommy Dillingcr, “Doc Dodson, Clyde Dillinger. “Red” Dodson. Walker Reid and many other lesser —liS— luminaries too numerous to mention, all of whom were indeed instrumental in upholding the reputation of the “Purple and White.” Our girls are the prettiest in school and our men the handsomest. Even the seniors will acknowledge that. One of our members having won the distinction of being called the “ Male Vamp.” Only one of us has I eeome entangled in the meshes of matrimony and this happened so early in the year that the class can hardly he held responsible. Our social activities have been numerous. At these events, many of us have shown remarkable ability in devouring all re- freshments in sight and our followers of the Terpsidhorean Art have been given ample opportunity to exhibit their skill. Early in the year we elected our class officers. Pete Myers, sometimes known as the “Yegg” and famous as a Cartoonist and trap drummer, was awarded the honored seat of class presi- dent. Our Vice-President is Mrs. Erma Martin and Nadine Thomas has served well as Secretary. Francis Murrell repre- sents us in that august body, the Student Senate. In truth, what lies beyond for the K. S. T. ('. is what the classes choose to make it and what may not the class of 192-1 do for their Alina Mater for in its ranks are men and women of char- acter and ability, who have given a great share of their loyalty to K.

After the usual formality, Gordon King was elected president, and Leonna Buckett secretary. The following Monday a meeting was held in which Helen Cypher was chosen as our representative to the Student Senate. A committee of three was elected to select four spon- sors for the class. At a business meeting some time later Verna Barnard was elected vice president and Ida McFarlan, Miss Yocum. Bruce Houston. Monroe Holman and Hugh Snyder were elected as a social committee. The class has given several entertainments for its members. One of tile well remembered one was a class picnic. A group of the class members met in front of the College Cafeteria at nine o'clock. Wc hiked to tin cliffs, where we served dinner and had a very good time, not returning to town until three o’clock. One of the most enjoyable parties was the “Kid Party given in the men’s gymnasium. All were dressed as children from five to twelve years of age. Miss Stewart directed the plays and games which lasted until ten o’clock. The High School Class has been prosperous, and its mem- bers have had many good times together. Wo hope to continue to grow and prosper throughout 1921. 71— Inigit School Class $3oem Just think what the old hall would be Without the High School class The group that scatters joy and cheer To every lad and lass.

XX the fall term of the year 1020 the Eighth Oracle of the Demonstra- tion School published the first issue of their school paper, the ‘‘.Jun- ior Index.” It was published on the mulligraph with the help of Professor Selby and his class. The Seventh Grade joined the Eighth Oracle in the publishing of the second edition which was printed at the printing office. That the Junior Index might In truly a school paper the other grades of the school were asked to contribute articles. Thus every grade in the Demon- stration School is represented in the publishing of every edition and each child may feel that lie has a part in supporting the paper. The .Junior Index has meant a great deal to the pupils of the Demonstration School by giving them experience in journalism and teaching them to apply their English work. They have found this paper such an advantage to them that it is their hope that the Junior Index may have, a permanent part in the activities of the Demonstration School. Si Cljc Bullpups jUsstoctaticm KlOllTlI CtRADK. Cl IK Bullpups Association was organized by (In Physical Kducation Department for bovsof t h Demonstration School, in December 1920. Pour clubs, the Boston, the French, the Irish, and the English Bull- pups compose this organization. The business and sport meetings have been held during assembly time. A basketball tournament was held during the month of January, and the French Bullpups. winning the championship, were presented with a large banner. The Bullpups Association has meant a great ileal to the boys by enabling them to get more practice in basketball and by developing a spirit of leadership and cooperation among them. S.T - Cljc £s tutient Senate XX some ways, probably the year 1920-21 has been the most event- ful and important in the history of the Student Senate. A number of movements have been set on foot which if carried out as planned are certain to have lasting effect upon the future of the college. The first of these movements was the organization of the alumni and former students of the college into county and city K. S. T. C. Clubs” for the purpose of enabling them to keep in touch with each other and to carry out valuable programs for the good of each other and the college. The “Index” is to be the organ of communication among the various clubs. Then on December 11. the hirst nnual K. S. T. ('. Football Banqu t was held in Library Ilall under the auspices of the Senate in honor of the ‘’Bull- dogs. who tied for the Stale championship. It is the plan of the Senate that t In Banquet shall indeed become an annual event and the signal for a yearly homecoming of K. S. T. ('. Alumni and former students. Probably one of the most important enterprises for immediate results which the Senate has entered upon is the campaign for students for 1921-22 which is being carried on during the Spring and Summer quarters of this year. It is intended that this campaign shall be a permanent part of the Senate’s work in future years. There are many lx ys and girls in this college district who should go to college and who will go if they are shown the advantages of going, but who do not go because the matter of going to college has not been presented to them in a way that appeals to them. It is the purpose of the Senate that the matter of going to college and particularly of going to the best college in the country shall be presented to the boys and girls of this district in the most effective manner possible, which we believe to be through the students and former students of K. S. T. C. This is not an attempt to catalog all the activities of the Senate during the year 1920-21 but merely to mention some of the ideas of service to the Old School which the Senate hopes to see carried out. The Senate is just beginning its usefulness. May it continue to work and attain the position which it de- serves. (Officers of tubent Senate X. D.

CHI', Young Women's Christian Association has had a very successful year under the leadership of Pauline Houston. A splendid atmosphere and feeling of kindliness was created at the beginning of the quarter by a social given in co-opera- tion with the Young Men’s Christian Association, for the entire student body and the faculty. This spirit has continued throughout the year. A few weeks ago a backward social was given in the Y. V. C. A. rest room. Kveryone was backward in everything except having a good time. With a desire to do something that would help the students of the future as well as the present to have a good time socially, the Y. W. C. A. under the direction of Mrs. Humphrey built an out-door fire place on the state farm, for Use by any organizations of the school on their hikes and picnics. Great stress has been laid on the devotional programs each week. Elsie Post as chairman of the Devotional Committee planned a systematic Bible study. A very fitting program was rendered at Thanksgiving time and a most impressive musical program was given the last meeting be- fore Christinas. The Mission Study Class has met every Friday after- noon with Mrs. Settle as leader. The girls in this class feel that they get much good from the study of other lands and their needs and they ap- preciate very much Mrs. Settle’s kindness in meeting with them each week. The association plans to have two or three representatives at the summer conference at Estes Park again this year. High standards are being adopted by the Young Women’s Christian Associations of all the Teacher’s Colleges of Missouri and it is hoped and expected that as our association strives to attain these standards its in- fluence will be felt still more even outside our own campus. •to • 91 k W E. itl. c. a. M IIIRTY K. S. X. S. young men on March 3. 1896 met and or- m C Kanized a student branch of the V. M. C. A. Consequently. J the V. M. (’. A. has served Kirksville students longer than any organization in school. In 1899 the lecture course was established, then in conjunction with the Association at the A. S. O. It is run on a small margin of profit, every penny made going back into next years course, after expenses have been paid. Tickets are kept as low in price as possible, making them within the reach of every student. The course opened in 1920 with an added number, the Devereux Players, in a presentation of Ibsen's “Ghosts.’’ In spite of the facts that it has been given two years before, and that a local paper severely criticised it, it made an excellent impression. This number was followed with a concert by Mvrna Shallow, lectures by Maude Ballington Booth and Dean Percy H. Boynton, a concert by era Poppe, Cellist, and a concert by Harold Ilemy. As an independent attraction, on March 7. 1921, as a sort of silver anniversary, the Association brought Arthur Middleton to Kirksville for a concert. At this writing it seems possible that we can secure for another lecture Villigalmur Stefiansson. noted arctic explorer. The student body and the people of Kirksville can always be sure of a worth-while series of cultural entertainments through the year while the V. M. A. continues to fund ion. The V. M. C. A. Book Exchange continues to supply textbooks at lower prices. A large number of books were disposed of at a bargain sale this year. A new activity is the V. M. C. A. Rest Room. It has been equipped with a telephone, washroom, writing desk, magazines, and games and has proveni very popular with the men. By the beginning of the Summer term it is hoped that another room in the tower with a campus outlook will he equipped. When the new building is erected, more comfortable and fitting quarters will be provided. Several successful socials have been held, some of them in conjunction with the Y. W. ('. A. The Sunday devotional meetings for the past year have been consid- ered the l ost and most inspirational in the history of the Association. Gospel Team work is being resumed this spring. The Association, like another fraternal organization, has an emblem, although its meaning is the opposite of secret. The Triangle’s three sides represent the Spirit, Mind, and Body, each of which a Y. M. ( A. man tries to develop that he may be of more service to his fellows. The Circle represents Unity, and the all-embracing spirit of the Creator. The Mono- grain X P is taken from the ancient laborum of Constantine, and stands for Christ. The Book is the Bible, the quotation, John 17:21, “That the three (Spirit, Mind. Body) may be one.” A glance at the photograph will show how many of the college leaders are members. Two men were sent to the officers’ training Conference in Warrenton, Mo., and a larger delegation, it is hoped will once more represent K. S. T. C. this June in the great Ozark Mountain Y. M. C. A. Summer Con- ference at Hollister. The Association’s officers this year were E. E. Looker, President; Caskey Settle, Vice President, and Charles Singley, Secretary-Treasurer. The President for 1021-22 is Hugh Vail, with A. H. Juergensmeyer. as Vice President, and Charles Henry as Secretary-Treasurer. We art' confident that the Association will open its second quarter century of service even more auspiciously than it has ended its first. —us— .ickboFT Ledford leixr Bradsha� eMmeyer CHARTS HENtrx Dramatic Club Calenbar Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday, second week of summer term, opening of Our Little Theater, presentation of “Six Who Pass While the Lentils Roil,' “Wonder Hat,’' and “Suppressed Desires.’’ July 22-24. “Midsummer Night Dream.

It was so quiet that one could easily have heard the proverbial pin swish through the air in tho proverbial drop. Then the air was smitten by a mighty roar of laughter that shook even tungsten bulb in its socket. The Pep Squad had appeared with another stunt! An enormous turkey strode into view, and for the next ten minutes he com- pletely monopolized the meeting. But what. then, is this Pep Squad? In a way it is descended from the Booster Club of former years. It is more nearly related, however, to that ancient organization, the R. (). (). F. During the spring of 1920, the K. O. (). F. was especially active in the sup- port of the Bulldogs. However, with the beginning of the football season the brotherhood had passed on to the Happy Hunting («round and there was no instrument in the college to focalize the latent.—very latent school spirit as it should be expressed in rooting for the Bulldogs. A group of students, (the term student is here used in the masculine sense) with the interest of K. S. '1'. ('. sincerely at heart, saw the needs of the situa- tion. and organized the Pep Squad in order to reestablish the high grade of rooting for which the school has been famous in the past. The first phase of active aggressive support was the massing together of some forty of the strongest male voices in the college pop meetings and games. This resulted in complete team work and utmost effort of everybody in the yelling and attendance. To relieve? the tedium of the wait between halves the Pep Squad gave stunts on the field. Not only were the ludicrous antics of the performers highly en- tertaining but they resulted in a material increase of enthusiasm among the student body. The first stunt was the now historic bull fight staged between halves of the game with the Blue-jays. The cheer leader, finding that his efforts were meeting with lessening response, turned to discover the reason: and saw caper- ing upon the field a bull, followed by three men on horses, the like of which had never before been seen outside of the Barney and Bailum Circus! In front ran a very agile youth waving the well known red rag. As he continued to tantalize the uncouth creature, the horsemen, brandishing tre- mendously long spears, closed in. One was crashed to the ground but before he was gored the animal had been thrown and dispatched by the use of a pro- digious sword. Very quickly he was loaded into the butcher cart and the field cleared for tin game. The Pep Squad took advantage of the interlude in the Central Game to bury the schools that had been defeated, to the accompaniment of the A. S. (). Band, secured especially for the occasion. Immediately before this the Pep Squad had persuaded an aviator with the ('K” banners on the plane’s wings to fly above the bleachers. —100 — Again during the Tarkio game a hilarious yet very strenuous version of a “football” game was played. Several other original formations were first practiced in this game. “Bosco.” the only educated turkey ever seen on the campus, was a fea- ture of the Thanksgiving Day game. A ‘‘movie’’ camera was utilized to film the hunt. The team was always escorted to the train by the student body, assisted by the Pep Squad. Bv the end of the season, however, enthusiasm was at such a height the student body was quite able to do its own rooting. The Osteopath goat’s capture, the realistic and very remarkable game of Basketball up-to-date as well as the Donkey and Klephant reception accorded Mr. Fair on his election, are but parts of the Pep Squad activities. However, even these things cost some money. Accordingly the students generously filled the stockings of the Pep Squad with minor varieties of the Simolcon, and the expenses of the Pep campaign were met. Since Pep is what Bulldogs live on we do not intend they shall ever go half fed again. Keeping ever in mind its motto “All hands on deck” the Pep Squad remains on guard over the school spirit of the K. S. '1'. C.

Three more beau- tiful maidens were not to be found in the kingdom and they were loved bv all of their subjects. So. when the Prince of Happiness announced thal he would choose for his Princess, the maiden who could light the three candles before his throne few expressed a wish to try. Not that the test was difficult, for it seemed comparatively easy, but because it was inev- itable that one of the three Princesses would prove her worthiness of such sta- tion. But which one would it be? Their popularity with their subjects was so evenly divided that their father himself, was puzzled as to which one to send to the Palace first. i last it was decided after much discussion, for as you know to reign in the Land of Happiness is a great responsibility. The rulers must be able to lead their subjects, to love them lest t'nhappinoss, their Clevel- and devising enemy overthrow their kingdom. ‘‘ Princess W ealth shall go first,” said the ruler. “She is very industrious and Prince Happiness likes industrious people. So W ealth, accompanied by her maid. Industry, went to the Palace of Happiness and straightway to the throneroom where before the Prince she knelt in courtesy. Then with the lighted taper given to her. she appro: died the three candles which awaited the touch of the real Princess to burst into flame and light the throneroom in all its majesty. She touched the first candle and its flame burned brightly for a moment then died. It was in vain she tried to light the other two candles and weary of fruitless attempts she returned to her father. “Beauty shall go next, said the ruler, “for surely her subjects love her so deeply she will light the candle without a doubt.” So Beauty, with her maid, ( onceit, went to the palace. Attempts to light the first candle by her touch were futile, the second burned for a moment and the third was as the first. Disappointed, Beauty returned to her father. “That is strange, said the ruler, “that maidens so deeply loved as you are, cannot light those randies, but. confidently, it only remains for Youth to accomplish so she shall go. Youth without even a maid, and certain of her attainment went frolicking to the Palace of Happiness. In vain she tried to light the first candle. If would not yield to her impatient touch. So at last even Yout-b grew tired and returned home puzzled and despairing. Now by this time excitement reigned in the whole kingdom for surely the candles were magic if they could not be lighted by either of three so well loved maidens as were the ruler’s daughters. When many other maidens had trier! without success to kindle the flames of the candles there came a girl whom no one had heard of before. Her cheeks were tanned until they blended in with the softness of the khaki gown which she wore. “Who is this strange maiden and why should she try? they asked. “For even the ruler’s daughters wereun- successful. ” But calmly she made her way to the throneroom. Bowing be- fore the Prince of Happiness she accceptod the lighted taper and as she touched each of the candles, its flame leaped up as if by magic. In the radiance of their |0!l light the Prince proclaimed the khaki-clad maiden as Princess of the Kingdom of Happiness for by her touch the three magic candles of Work. Health, and Love burned brightly. “Where did you learn the secret of the magic touch?” the Prince inquired? “It’s a long story but you shall hear it. replied the Princess. “I once lived as a subject to I’nhappiness and I longed each day to live in your King- dom of Happiness but could not escape until the good fairy, Wohelo. came to me. She told me that I might evade the influence of I'nhappiness and come to live in your kingdom forever if ! would do as she bid me. I was to work for the joy of working; keep my body strong that I might more readily serve others and create love, for where then' is no love, I'nhappiness has full power. After I had followed the advice of tin fairy Wohelo I found myself in your King- dom of (lirls so each might be a Princess of Happiness. ” “You shall do so if you desire.’’ said the Prince. And not only did the people learn to love their Princess dearly but when she whispered the Fairy Wohelo Secret io them they began to imitate her. And to this day you may see many maidens who wear the khaki gowns and rule in the Kingdom of Hap- piness each a Princess of the Fairy Wohelo. —no— Cln historical onetp CHE absence of Professor Yiolettc all the year, and of Professor Fair for most f the time, lias been keenly felt by the Society, and has detracted much from the open discussion for which the Society has long been famous. As it was quite likely that meetings hold on Saturday morning could not be attended by several of the other members of the faculty, and also by students who might find other work necessary at that time, the hour of meeting for the year was changed to Wednesday even- ing. As a result the attendance at the meetings has been excellent, and inter- est was much better. There has been a slight alteration of the character of the programs. Pro- fessor ('ross, who came to the Teachers College from the University’ of Wyoming, gave us a very interesting discussion of the attitude of the far West towards the Japanese Question. Later in the year Miss Tatum discussed the acts of the League of Nations Assembly at Geneva, which gave us a connected account of the Activity of the organization. Still Inter Professor Oppcnhcim, who came to Kirksville from Columbia University’ in New York, read a paper on the present Russian situation. It will be recalled that for the past two years the Historical Society has been affiliated with the International Relations Clubs, through which we ob- tain each year a number of exceedingly valuable hooks on matters of public interest. Through ibis organization we also had the pleasure of hearing an address delivered by Baron Korff an eminent Russian authority on the Revo- lution and organization of the Sovcit government of Russia. This lecture was enjoyed alike by the members of the Society, many other students and Faculty members, and byr a large number of townspeople. During the year an amendment to the constitution was proposed and adopted, creating a new kind of membership Corresponding Members. Old students, former members of tin society, or teachers of history or the social science in Northeast Missouri. The only duty of a corresponding member is to write an occasional letter to either the secretary of the Society, or some mem- ber of the faculty’, describing unique conditions in the vicinity where he lives; asking questions as to some method of teaching history which may have proved troublesome, or proposing questions for discussion at the regular meetings of the Society. The object of this change has been, in part, to put the members of the Society in close, touch with the problems of teachers in the field; in part to keep connections with old members, many of whom live far from Missouri, and may be able to write us about conditions in a far more effective fashion than that of a magazine. —m — Pl«OE. -I.

HUumnt Club H )K a long time, the alumni students from the Kirksville High School have felt the nee l of some organization which would partially fill the place of high school activities. In response to that felt need the “K” club was organized in .January 1921. Although there has not been a great deal of time for extra activi- ties, the members feel sure that the officers are planning some jolly af- fairs later in the season. It is the purpose of this club to keep together the students of various graduating classes of K. II. S. and furnish a feeling of being at home and of good comradeship. The membership of the club at the time of organization, consisted principally of members representing classes from 1915 to 1920. Among these members are some who have taught one. two or three years. Others have not taught at all and have achieved the senior year in this institu- tion. Still other members have performed a combination of both activi- ties. As for the continuity of the club, let us hope it keeps on thru future years to welcome and help the students who come here from K. H. S. —118— tElje $Hrts ( uilb Arts Guild, which started life as the Cartoonists m C Guild, is the successor of that formerly flourishing I organization, The Art Club, which peacefully ex- piled sometime in the summer term of 1020. Several students, who were interested in the expression afforded by the Graphic Arts, met in the Winter Term of 1921, and organized the present group. The Guild is small in numbers, but active, depending on its own spontaneity, being purely a student organization.

(’. student found in the year of our Lord, 1970.) March 7. 1921: Registered for a course in Economics, simply from im- pulse. B. tried to dissuade me from doing so. Said the name was too mys- tical and high-sounding and that I would never lx economical anyway. That irritated my instinct of pugnacity and in sheer spite. 1 tacked on a course in Government. 1 realize I’m in for it but then all life is a speculation. March 1 1th. Whoop-ee! Discovered that this stuff is actually related to the facts of lift . Felt rather uncomfortable when the prof, said that eco- nomics was the science of man earning a living. That was a little beyond any sensation I ever experienced but guess the prof, is right. I may see the truth of the statement some day. We also took up earning and spending incomes— although there too 1 attempted to shine only on the second part. Blushed when we discussed free goods, creative labor and irrational consumption—al- though 1 guess I’m not the only man in the room with a silk shirt to my name. April 1. This is getting exciting. Took up some programs of social re- form but to tell the truth. I don't think much of tin “isms” whether it’s So- cialism. Communism or Bolshevism. I don’t think there is enough brotherly love to go around as it is and these schemes require a human nature that will make each person as sweet-ternpered as Job. Handed the prof, a pet plan of a new society which 1 would like to see worked out. Neither he nor the class could see much in it. Guess there was something wrong with it. April 14th. Learned some more. Under Socialism the State won’t take all one’s property—for instance, in | ersonal property, your tooth-brush would still be your own. Guess 1 won’t ever make a Communist. Under that queer system breakfast would be served at f� A. M. Why make life harder than it is? And besides 1 am not accustomed to a 50-50 basis for all the good things of life. Government is going along nicely. Prof, said that liberty didn’t mean the right to do as you please altho to follow the Bolshevik activities would convince one to the contrary. 'Fold Dad that government implied compulsion too. Guess he’ll see the point when he gets ready to pay his income tax without using harsh language. Xotk: This diary might be continued indefinitely. But whether in 1970 or in 1921, students in Political Science will continue to write them. For Gov- ernment and Economics simply present principles which are vitally related to current political, social and economic issues. In the language of everyday life, they draw on the interests and experiences of persons who desire to secure a broad background for their everyday activities. i ■j-i Wt Member If Oleda Collins will ever wear any other color than red on her head?

Professor Mark Burrows, now of Greeley, Colorado, was the first teacher. The teachers at the present time are P. 0. Selby, Gertrud Vogel, and Jo'sie Lough- ead. Mr. Selby teaches bookkeeping and account- ing, commercial geography, business law, and office methods. Miss Vogel teaches stenography— the Gregg system--and supervises typewriting. Miss Loughead teaches typewriting. The Commerce Department has never put on a play, staged an opera, nor held an interscholastio game. It does not come to the fore. The function of a Commerce Department as regards extra class- room activities is conceived to be that of running the shows, engineering the finances, keeping the records, etc. Our Commerce Department functions in this way for many affairs. The typewriters in the department click off the letters, the out- lines, etc., for many classroom affairs and many not performed in classrooms. The Office Methods class makes considerable use of duplicating de- 128 vicos, such as the multigraph, 1� primtiwg tickets ets, programs, checks, and blanks of many kimds. The accounting for many enterprises is done by students and teachers of commerce. The Commerce Department is located in the dingiest and least sanitary comer of Baldwia Hall. The floors are worn out, the lighting is poor, the air is not good. But the spirit of that part of our institution runs high, hopes rum high- er, and accomplishment is near zenith. Early in the fall the Commerce Teachers, aad the Education teachers entertained the Sophomsrs Class at the home of Miss Doolittle on East Mormal Avenue at a Bolsheviki party. It was found on that occasion that Commerce people like to play just as much as anybody else. An organization ef a Commerce Club is pending. The class in Office Methods publishes from time to time The Commercial Enterprise, a four- page paper, set up and printed on the multigraph. The class in the fall term of this year primted the first number of the Junior Indepc for the Dem- onstration School. This also was printed on the multigraph. —129— @pn EA tr o A ¥ e x ir u A y G X IEM6GRGE I i jhe [En l'sh 1Lan$ja £e is ithe richly endouJ6d ch'ld of an iHIndteSeoen moth'r by a 1 X € ¥ lU tin Tatfrr °f QreeK vccestry A U r Kposza X c ¥ A CJ H I [to— 131 - 111 • SSSSi I4M 1 Itl � 1 , Home Economics Lots of people live In. a house Fmd'cm where ever gouroam; Lots of people live in a house But few of ’em live in a. home.

The organization numbers one hundred and seventy-five persons who are not only interested in good music, but who have tal- ent to perform the best in musical literature. The influence of this group of people upon the community is very great and the result is that (he membership of the organization is not made up entirely of College stu- dents. but of townspeople who are willing to give their time and talent to make the work of the chorus successful. The number of concerts given during I In school vear is not limited. Consequently, numerous oppor- tunities are • ’ nils and townspeople whereby they may not gai good music, but a broad education in musical .v rature as well. Every spring the College Chorus participates in a Musical Festival. On June 2 and 3. 1920. assisted by the Minneapolis Symphony Orchestra and soloists, the chorus, directed by Professor Carr, sang Handel’s Mes- siah.” an oratorio of great l cauty and force. The performance was splendid and showed much diligence on the part of both director and chorus. On April 13 and 14, 11)21. the chorus took part in the Eleventh Annual Spring Festival. It gave Hayden’s “Creation,” assisted by splen- did soloists of national reputation, such as Marie Sidcnius Zcndt, soprano, Arthur Kraft, tenor, and Charles E. button, bass, and by the College Or- che.-tra. which was organized and trained by our capable Professor Goetze. The work was a splendid rendition and everyone was highly pleased with the program. 143— Cfjc College C ft ortis� —Continue ) During every summer the chorus perforins an opera. On July 20. and 23, 1920, ii gave Flo tow’s “Martha.” The performances wore highly dramatic as well as musical and were a wonderful success. Costuming and lighting effects were all that could be desired. The soloists were Col- lege people and their work was splendid. Famine Thompson, soprano, took the part of Lady Harriet Durham. Mildred Nulton. mezzo-soprano was her friend. Nancy. (Jwynne Burrows and Paul Riggins, basses, were Sir Tristan Mickleford. Professor Carr, tenor, was Lionel. Kdward X. Howell, bass, took the part of Plunket. .Jimmir Dillinger and Charles F. Link, basses, were the Sheriff of Richmond. Victor Guffey and Gladys McCully were two farmers. Opal Fnger. Dorothy Reedy and Katherine Sens were maidservants. These characters were supported by a chorus of about eighty persons and the performances were of the very best qual- ity. A concert of great value and beauty was “The Holy City, an ora- torio by A. R. Gaul, given December 14, 09 0. The chorus was assisted by the College orchestra and Messrs. Stout and Shaw as soloists. 'Flu lone quality Professor Carr brought from the chorus and the precision of the singers were very commendable. The soloists from the College were Mrs. John Howell, contralto, and Misses Ruth McCoy and Flossie R d- mon, sopranos. The performance was considered one of the very best that had ever been given.

If the football team or basketball fails to win it is always, “Now, before the war—We are glad to say that not every department has to use such an alibi. No, the war did not seem to work evil in the English Department, at least not so that the debating team suffered. In fact it would almost seem that the little period of rest was just what was needed. There was new life in the department with even a new Coach, Lulu Durland. The interest one might think would be lacking for there were but two teams and a strong alternate in the class. It was the old story of quality not quantity. Even inexperience seemed not to count, the game was entirely new to all but Russell Mallett. Springfield was met by Russell Mallett and Julia Ilan- lev and victory was assured when Russell, with facts, figures and flights or oratory presented the negative side of the question. No one doubted this veteran would come up to his old standard but few expected him to surpass it as lie did, not even when so well supported by Julia Hanley. The work of the home team was of much interest for X. I). Hour hton and William Dunn were new at the game. The former had appeared on our platform but the latter was an unknown freshman until the clash with Cape Girardeau. Gaining the decision these two men established them- selves in the hearts of the students. These debaters gave us tin championship in the league for tin first time. It was a doubly welcomed championship for it was the only laurel wreath presented to tin old school during the year. —1M— —155 tEt)e 3nbex !I i-; INDEX has l een one of the foremost enterprises in this M £ college for twelve years.

Professor Warren Jones instructs classes in Journalism each quarter. It is through the continual efforts of Mr. Jones and his classes that the Index is published. It is the dream of those interested in Journalism to have a journal- ism department in this college with a complete equipment for printing, including the modern printing machines such as the monotype and lino- type. With the realization of this dream, the students will not be trained merely to act as reporters and write articles, but they will be instructed in all the various phases of the art of printing.

Kpperson. chairman. Misses Lena Patterson, Lucy Simmons. Thurba Fidler and Mr. W.Bray. This committee, after careful survey, decided that there is a good field here for an honorary fraternity open to Loth men and women, and so proceeded to plan such an organization. The charter membership was chosen on the basis of superior scholarship and professional pron ise. On I'eb. 19. 1921 the organization was formally instituted and the charter members initiated by the faculty committee in charge of the organiza- tion of the fraternity. The name. Kappa Phi Sigma, was chosen for the organization. The fraternity is planed along the lines of a national hon- orary pedagogical fraternity with which the local fraternity hopes to affdiate when its petition has been approved. The first officers of the fraternity are: James Richard Johnson, President; l ima Poole. Vice President; Lois Drake, Secretary; Merrill W. Williams, Treasurer; and l-.lsic Post. Historian. It is expected that this fraternity will become a powerful factor in the field of education with such promising young leaders banded together in an organization whose tenets are the advancement of the highest ideals and traditions of the teaching profession. —102— uAu ip5r $tstorp of tfje educational jfratermtp of $fjt Hatnfaba (Epsilon iWissouri (gamma Chapter Cl IE Phi Lambda Epsilon Fraternity Vas founded at Clinton Academy, Clinton, Mo., February 12, 1892.

In February, 1891, a chapter was installed in the Normal School at Kirksville, and Samuel II. Ellison was the first man initiated.

These announcements are read by President Kirk or other presiding officers free of charge, though the advertisers’ union objects, and declares that announcements are only spoken advertisements and should be charged for at union rates. Our staff statistician has compiled the dope as to announcements and announces these startling figures: STATISTICS There are on the average 14.75 announcements daily, 5 days a week, 48 weeks a year, or an annual total of 3,740. These 3,740 are heard by an average of 713 people per day, and as each one takes an average of 24.6 seconds to deliver, these take up during a year 68,058,852.0 seconds of somebody's time, which reduced to higher denominations is the equiva- lent of 788 days, or over two years, and are therefore worth 84,000 to 85,000, if some one could he induced to listen to them for 24 hours a day. Of the 713 people who hear them only about 2.75% heed them. Just think of the time and energy thrown away! An average of 69.4% of these announcements were for called meet- ings. During the past year the ukulele campfire sent up 38 announcements; the tcnvhoppas 15 announcements; the kulux vampire 32 announcements; 1S1 the wantakowas 43: the men-o-my-nees 20: the runaways 30; the ilike- caskcy 27; the kinuckles 52; all others 55. The prize, a tin ear trumpet, goes therefore to the last named group. Not a single announcement was made by or for try lammin your stepson fraternity, sic ’em sic ’em sic ’em eigarity, the alfalfa cigarettia (you know me, al). or the delta hand to epperson (this is an infringement of your copyright, P. O.), but our new honory fraternity, the apple pies, got across once. The regi sent up 13 notices which cost 95 cents each, on the aver- age. if you didn’t hear them. The 2dtary also sent up 7, but not such expensive ones. The faculty made 73.69 % of the announcements or were responsible therefor. Messers bray, howl, and miss tidier of the music dept, were active. Drag reed of the engiish dept, was often visible. Misses gray, browne and green (t. j. and e.) of the painting dept, were also. The auto- mechanics dept, was occasionally there with the person of dean carr. There was no prize offered. Occasionally the boys send up a fake announcement like when they asked mr. jamison to speak about what came to his house in february (editor: I really know what words to capitalize, but I’ve got to get some humor in this somehow), but president kirk won't read the fake ones. When he is down to the legislature or off somewhere getting robbed by bandits these would-be jokes increase in number. This is all I know to write. Lawkkncb I).

When a certain student in this college was asked to account for his attitude towards life, lie answered by giving us the following formula, and stating that it had ‘wrought' wonders with him and would do the same for any other student who would follow the directions closely. So if you desire to have ‘pep’ read and live the following: 1. Rise as soon as you get up. By so doing the red cor- puscles are excited and confused which in turn will have an effect upon the other person, in which we find the “real” habitant of “pep.” 2. Put on your collar and tic before your shirt. This has a tendency to create a disturbance in the brain—of your room- mate. 3. Turn on the “gas” or electric light before leaving the room (if both are present you arc lucky)! This is the means by which one of the greatest symptoms of “pep, ” Absent Minded- ness, is found. 1. Go to school without breakfast. This is done because the energy wasted in the digestion of food will be directed towards “pep.” 188 5. Miss classes at least twice a week. This puts the in- structor in a pleasant, frame of mind. lie knows that he is going to get to give an “F. ” This will have a tendency to excite your curiosity and wrath which are favorable symptoms of “absent mindedness.” G. Forget to eat dinner. This is done so “absent minded- ness” will develop and leave a symptom. 7. Spend the afternoon by hunting a dale. If one is found you have a reason to account for one of the greatest benefactors of “absent mindedness.” If one is not found you and “dad” are lucky. 8. At about six begin to gather attire (yours or your room- mate’s) for the date. This is compulsory according to Hoyle and the “social committee.” 0. Fill your date and go home. Don’t stay late. It’s not being done this year. Besides, if you linger you will become more susceptible to “infatuation,” or “love,” which is an unfav- orable symptom of “pep.” 10. Reserve a “padded” cell at the institute in Saint Joseph, for that is where you belong for reading this. Look Out. iso Jfonb Inopes In 1930 We Hope To Have— A Dew building. No noise in assembly.

C'. made its first appearance W I W in inter-collegiate football in the year of 1903. The strength of the team that year is shown by the following scores. Kirksville 30. Central 2; Kirksville 28, Westminster 0: Kirksville IS. William Jewell 6. In 1901 this school was again represented by a st rong team. William Jewell was defeated by a score of 6-0; the Osteopaths were also defeated that year. The next team of prominence was the famous championship team of 1908. This was the first championship team for this institution. Our own coach Mc- Williams played quarterback on that team. Football was abolished from this school in 1912. For two years K. 8. T. O. was not represented on the gridiron. In 1914 it was re-established and since that time it has lead all other forms of athletics in this school. The year 1916 was marked by another championship team. Among the players on this team were: Petree, Dye. Cassady, Paine. Hoff, Ziegel, Neil, Mot ter, and Cammack. The season closed with a promising championship team for 1917 but the army took too many men from school so that only one game was won that year. K. 8. T. (’. 33, Maryville 9. In 1918 no games were played, due to war conditions. Tn 1919 old K. 8. T. O. came back once more with a strong team but was defeated in two games. Again bright prospects loomed for the following year. The year 1920 opened with a game with the Osteopaths on Oct. 1st. It was a hard fought game resulting in a score of 14-7 in favor of K. 8. T. O. On Oct. 15th came the real game with Westminster. It was declared by some to be the best game ever played on Kirk field. Score, K. 8. T. C. 14, W est- minster 0. Central College was defeated by a 6-0 score on Oct. 22. On Oct. 29 the Bulldogs clashed arms with the strong team from Tarkio. resulting in a 7-3 victory for Kirksville. Nov. 5th was marked by a forfeited game from Mis- souri Wesleyan. The largest score run in the conference t his year was the one by t he Bulldogs against Missouri Valley on Nov. 19th. The Bulldogs having had two weeks rest since the preceding game trampled Missouri Valley to the score of 70-0. The game on Thanksgiving day was played against Warrensburg resulting in a score of 28-0 for the Bulldogs. At the meeting of the Athletic Association in Kansas City a triple Cham- pionship was awarded for 1920. Kirksville. Holla and William Jewell were the three schools of the Conference that were tied. Again we hope for a championship team next year. —211 — « 1 . WKITTM’P OF INDIVIDUAL PLAYERS Jfootlmtl “ Duck. ” (Wallace Dodson) Is a centor and plays a good hard game.

He is twenty-two years old and weighs one hundred and fifty-five pounds. “Big Tom,” (Tommy Dillikgrr) Here’s a big fellow who plays football for pastime.

He is twenty-six years old and weighs one hundred and eighty- seven pounds. “Knows” (George Caldwell) Played a good game at half this year. Ilis strong points are running back punts and receiving forward passes. A pass never gets by George. This is his last year in school here and he will be greatly missed next year. George loved to “skin the Osteopaths,” which he did in every form of athletics this year. lie is twenty three years old and weighs one hundred and seventy-five pounds. —•213— “Murpii,” (James Murphy), ((‘apt. elect.) Here's the man that tears up the line. In his position at left tackle lie never let a play get away around that side of the line. W hen he tackles a man you can hear the bones crack. lie is one of the best line men in the conference.

Dave is a great line man, having made All State tackle in 1916. lie instills fight and hard play into his men. “Ton,” (Tod Kirk) Is another man that helped make the season of 1920 a successful one. He is one of the best punters in the state of Missouri and the suc- cessful punting of tin college team is due largely to his coaching. Tod has played a lot of football and knows the game. “ Benny, ” (Bennie Wells) Made All State second team this year. He’s our left end and a real football player. Ben has the “form when it comes to football. He specialized on busting up” end runs before they got started. 'Phis is his first year on the college team. Ben is twenty years old and weighs one hundred and sixty-eight pounds. “Walker,” (Alvin Walker) This is Walker’s first year on the team and he played a good game at right guard.

He is twenty-two years old and weighs one hundred and sixty pounds. “ClIARLKY, ((‘HARLEY SiNGLEY) Could always be depended upon to play his part of the game well. He plays a half back position and puts lots of fight into his playing. Charley is twenty-four years old and weighs one hundred and fifty pounds. “Coach,” (II. L. McWilliams) Here’s the best football coach in the State of Missouri. He coaches his team to play clean, hard, fast football, which is tlie kind that wins. He knows football from “A” to “Z”. 11 is players hold him in the greatest respect which proves his ability. The success of the teams representing this institution is due largely to Coach McWilliams. “Miller,” (Paul Miller) Played a good game at center this year, (‘enter is a hard position to fill but Miller played it with the good old Bulldog fight. 'I'his is his first year on the team and we expect much from him in the next three years. Miller weighs one hundred and fifty-four pounds. “Hutch,” (Seldon Hutchinson) Here’s the big husky that made All State guard this year.

Almost three hundred people attended to do honor to the boys of the gridiron of 1920. The hall was beau- tifully decorated in purple and white. Each of the eight tables represented a football field, with small goal posts at each end and ten-yard lines marked otf with purple and white paper. In the center of each table was a large gold” football representing a game played this year and the score of that game. A few minutes before 0:30 the Bulldogs assembled in the lower hall and elected .James Murphy captain for the year 1921. At the appointed time every one was comfortably seated at one of the eight long tables and the “eats” began to “arrive;” and this is what we had: Celery Pickles Veal Cutlet Mashed Potatoes French Peas Finger Rolls Cranberry Jelly Waldorf Salad Ice Cream Devil's Food Cake Coffee Mints With Mr. Kingsbury as toast master, President John R.

Owing to his height and jumping ability, very few opponents got the “knock off” on him. Looker is a good player and makes many good shots. He has played two years on the team and graduates this year. Ray Dilunger “Hay” is a good forward and a good goal shooter. He never fails to make a lot of goals in every game he goes in. He is a Senior this year and has played two years on the team. Olin Carps “Capps” is a forward and a fighter. lie plays basketball with speed and fight. He played every minute of every game this year. George Caldwell George plays a running guard. He is fast and a good goal shooter, his long shots helping us to win many games. George is a Senior this year and has played two years on the team. Glen Dilunger “Glen” plays a stationary guard and he plays the game with fight and pep. Ilis close guarding won victory for the Bulldogs more than once this year. Glen is a Senior and has played t wo years of basketball. Clyde Dili.ingkr “Clyde” is another big husky center. He has more fight than any man on tin squad. This is his first year and we expect much from him in the next three years. Eugene Sparling “Gene” plays a good game and can lie depended upon to play his part. He is a Senior this year and his first year on tin team. ILL. McWilliams “Coach” showed his same good coaching ability in basketball season as he did in football. He trained his men to play good, hard,clean, basket ball. Only the inconvenience of our gymnasium kept him from turning out a championship basketball team this year. —225— 220- Baseball ©ASEBALL has always been a very popular game in this in- stitution. During the many years it has been played in this institution sonic great baseball players have been developed and championship teams have been produced. The season 1020 started out looking good for the Bulldogs for many famous players of this school were on the diamond. But despite this fact the first game was lost to Missouri Valley by a score of 4 to 2. Then the Bulldogs came back and won 4 games straight by large margins. The Bulldogs then went up against the strongest team of the season, Missouri Military Acad- emy. and lost bv a score of f to I. 'This was followed by a streak of “hard luck” in which five more games were lost. But again our team came back in the last two games of the season and won from Missouri Wesley- an. first by a score of 3 to 0. and second by a scon of 10 to 3. Following is the schedule of 1920: K.

Kirksvillc should make a good showing in this meet because several good men represent this school on the track squad. K. S. T. C. has two old letter men in track this year. Ralph Cammack and Glen Dillinger. Last year tin inter-col- legiate meet was held at Springfield. Missouri. The following men won letters last year: Glen Dillinger; Glen Hooker; Ralph Cammack, and Louis I nfer. On April 25th the College team will run the Cross County as a part of their training.

C. HOWARD, Publisher Latimer Bros. Department Store The Store of a Thousand Bargains How to Use the Tooth Brush landing dental investigators now agree on the following method of teeth cleaning: Brush the upiter teeth from the gums downward, and the lower teeth upward from the gums. Do not brush teeth toward the gums, and do not brush them crosswise. Brush the grinding surfaces clear back as well as the inner and outer surfaces. The reasons are these: Brushing toward the gums tends to «rause the gums to recede. Brushing from the gums toward the teeth massages the gums and tends against recession. Brushing lengthwise « f the teeth force the bristles between the teeth. Brushing crosswise tends to pack food substance and film Itetween the teeth without re- moving if. It cleans only the high sur- faces. This means that up|ter and lower teeth should h brushed separately the up- per teeth with a downward stroke, and the lower teeth with an upward stroke, both on outer and inner surfaces. The reasons are so apparent and so recognized that those who use wrong methods should correct them. Have your teeth cleaned and examined by a dentist ai least one� ? a year. Make an appointment for your denial work. If unable to keep this appoint- ment, please notify by messenger, mail or telephone at least twenty-four (21) hours before the time s| ccificd. Failure to keep appointmeuts when teeth are treated may cause much harm. All broken appointments should be charged for. Hours: 0 A. M. to 5 P. JV1. Telephones Office 730 Res. 314 ROSS C.
