The Blue and Gold VOLUME II 1926 STATE TEACHERS COLLEGE KEARNEY, NEBR. 3926J -r. : ' The purpose of this volume is to portray the school life during the year 1926. The Antelope, The Mascot Of Our School It has led our athletes in their activities; it has encouraged our forensic teams in their contests; it has inspired our organ- izations in their work of improvement; and it is the central figure about which our 1926 Blue and Gold is builded. If this book aids anyone in recalling school events in which they have been in- terested, we shall feel that our efforts have been worth while.—The Editor. For her kind and willing assist- ance to the students and for her loyal and efficient cooperation with the school in developing our library we dedicate this book.

J-Jfli r .'F am W MP _ K. S. T. C. On the plains of western Nebraska The Antelopes roam at will; They frisk and they play, by night and by day And romp over prairie and hill. With beauty and grace and poise This creature so agile and free With its haunts on the plains far from high- ways and lanes Is the mascot of K. S. T. C. The Antelopes here are the students, The teachers the caretakers true, The campus and halls and ivy clad walls Are the haunts the Antelopes knew. May we ever be true to our college To the teachers and standards they hold, To the friends we knew and the pals so true Our mascot and the Blue and the Cold. —Nolan Alexander. « Book I. Book II.

T. C. a group of freshmen, many of whom were just out of high school while some boasted of a year or more of teaching ex- perience. As is usual with the new students of any school we bore with the jesting of the upper classmen and the marked superiority of the sophomores. We knew what we were in school for and cared little for the other activities of the institution at first but we were willing to learn from those who were more experienced and be- fore the quarter was well begun we were as loyal a bunch of boosters for K. S. T. C. and anything connected with the school as any person could desire. No doubt we got some poor grades in Mathematics or Chemistry or History, hut our class was well represented in athletics, in school organizations and in school activities of all kinds. The members of the faculty who were appointed to guide the green Frcshics through the intricate ways of college life were Mr. Otto Olsen and Miss Mildred Pat- ton. To these two sponsors we owe much of our success as an organization during cur first year in college. In 1923 we came hack to K. S. T. C. Many from our ranks had entered the field of business or dropped by the way while a nuipher of new members entered our class. ' . i• )i'yi •) - It was an entirely different group than tn «t)y which entered onc.year before as freshmen. It was a group of students iibw. ybp could look down on 'the frcshics and flaunt thcitfwisdom and-iniportaiUcd)ofore h : whole school. In fact Jin our own estinnilioiv wd)w.tlrc. hc. wisest class,!

The fall of 1925 found us hack again, seniors. It was a very serious and digni- fied group which gathered at our first class meeting, for the purpose of organization. A few of our class the year before, had left us. New members had joined our group. A number who had been sophomores the year before, through heavy work had stepped into the senior ranks. The senior class of 1926 was the largest class since Kearney Normal was changed into a Teachers College. The year was filled with toil and study, however on several different occasions we laid aside our austere mien and made merry once more like Freshmen. The first gathering of this nature was a picnic. The beef steak, marshmcllows, campfire and song made it a picnic which will long be remembered. Seniors who live in Kearney opened their hemes to the class on numerous occasions. The Senior Sneak Day and picnic in late April was one of the outstanding social events of the year for our class. The juniers entertained the seniors at the Junior-Senior Banquet on May 0. Juniors, we leave our places in this school to you to do with as you think best. We thank you for the many kindnesses you have shown us, and wish you a profitable and enjoyable journey as you bear onward our beloved Blue and the Gold, the colors of our Alma Mater. - Emmett- | ROSA EDEN.

During this year the school organizations, many of which were led by sophomore officers, made great strides. It was indeed a banner year for the two-year class. As the class is completing the third round of its college cycle, it consists of a mere remnant of the large number who entered on that September day in 1923. Their companions have entered various walks of life, and some have entered that mysteri- ous realm from which there is no return. The remaining members, undaunted, arv? passing onward toward their goal. As a fitting close of this third successful year, the juniors gave the annual banquet for the senior class at the Presbyterian church, May eighth, 1926. Here is good luck to next year’s juniors and a final goodbye to the outgoing seniors. i l«26pr---- First Row—Sena Aden, Kearney; Fred Albrecht, Cambridge; Elmer Anderson, Kearney; Elvira An- derson, Omaha; Hazel Anderson, Stromsburg.

The Sophomore class in Kearney College has made a name for itself in all of the school activities. Early in the year the class met and chose the leaders for the quarter, with John Bean, of Elwood,. as president. Homer Morrow, of Kearney, was elected vice-president, Sherman Mulvany, of Mason City, secretary, and Homer Mc- Connell, of Ravenna, treasurer. Soon after organizing, the sophs decided to back student government and convocation attendance so a representative was elected to the student council committee and arrangements were made for a rally at a con- vocation. The sophomore edition of the Antelope, put out on November 13 in brilliant red ink was edited by Margaret Yoder, of Elmcrcek, and Homer Morrow, of Kearney. The night of the thirteenth of November the class held its first parly in the Y. M. C. A. rooms at the gymnasium. Not to be outdone in any way by any of the other classes the sophomores put across a big sophomore day, on January 22. At the convocation hour the sophs put on a program which, according to many students and faculty members was one of the best of the year. A faculty meeting burlesque was the important number of the program. The faculty met in regular session with each person impersonated by some member of the sophomore class. Homer Morrow represented President Martin; Ethel Smith, Miss Stuff; Juanita Bruce, Mrs. Elliott: Margaret Yoder, Miss Smith; Anna Macklin. Miss Crawford; Aily Hefner, Miss Wirt; Seth Compton, Mr. Noycr; Wayne Danielson, Hans Olsen; Marjorie Curley, Miss Conrad; Henry Riley, Mr. Bullock: Frank Croissant, Mr. Anderson; and Kenneth Downing, Professor Fretwell Knight Foghorn, of Podunk Valley University, a guest teacher. The program was greeted with applause when some member of the mock faculty characterized himself by a favorite gesture or expression so well known to the students. The climax of the sophomore day was the all-school party and dance in the evening. It was attended by a large crowd of students who declared that it was one of the biggest and most successful social events of the year. Lee Harbottle, of Co- lumbus, second quarter president, engineered the class day and was largely respon- sible for the success. Kenneth Downing, of Arnold, had charge of the party in the Y. M. C. A. rooms. The sophomores have taken part in all intercollegiate activities, tilling Carska- don, of Gothenburg, is football captain for next year. Other classmen receiving foot- ball letters arc: Robert Pollard, of Farnani, Henry Riley, of Kearney, and Leon Aunspaugh, of Gothenburg. Basketball letters were earned by Pollard, Carskadon, and Huber. Margaret Yoder, of Elmcrcek, represented the sophomores on the de- bate squad. The class took the interclass track trophy in a meet held March 30, win- ning by a large margin over their nearest competitor, the freshmen. Marjorie Curley, of Kearney, was elected to lead the class through the third quarter. The sophomores owe much of their success as a class to Miss Jennie Con- rad and Hans Olsen who have been sponsors, advisors, and helpers to all. First Row—Esther Alberts.

Vice-Pres.—Elizabeth Clark—Carl Sandstrom—Blanche Myers. Secretary—Mildred Foster—Gertrude Thomas—Alta Seyholt. Treasurer—Ralph Dailard—Bonnie French—Leigh Post. The class of 1929 assembled for the first time on October sixth, with Miss Mar- ion C. Smith and Mr. M. S. Pate for willing and helpful sponsors. The Freshman Class numbered three hundred and thirteen members or nearly half the entire student body. This explains why the freshmen have played such an important part in the school life of Nebraska State Teachers College at Kearney. The freshman class has been well represented in debating by Miss Ruby Bowen, John Lancaster, Jack Wheelock, and Allvn Hanthorne. Two of the four yell leaders, chosen by the students were freshmen, namely. Miss Hazel Panek and Miss Edythe Davis. Over half of the glee clubs belong to the freshman ranks and many of the soloists. In athletics they have played their part well, for six of the sixteen “letter” men were “freshies.” The talents were varied, for dramatics claimed a number from the ranks. The freshmen were in charge of convocation on Freshman Day, February 12, 1926 and edited the Antelope for that week. The freshman class proved its originality by introducing programs at their reg- ular class meetings. These pregrams seem to have met with the approval of the class. Our stunt for the “Showdown” was successfully presented by Eileen Lynch, Hazel Panek, John Lancaster, Erwin Getty and John Waldman. We are looking forward with pleasure and interest to our remaining years in college. May they prove as worthwhile as this one has been. • 3926I r--- The Freshmen. There’s a joke ever present in college It’s the theme for the Sophomore pranks The Juniors precise and the Seniors so wise Make sport of the Freshmen ranks. It's true that the Freshmen arc different They add new spice to the life, For they’re new at the game and can’t he the same As the classmen who’ve seen more of strife. They drape themselves over the fountain And stand about in the hall These things have been done since the school began We need not he worried at all. They tell of their victories in high school And the wonderful things they have seen Hut we did the same when first we came To this college as Freshmen quite green. They may boast of their good grades in science And their excellent showing in Math. Hut why make a fuss, it can’t affect us Why should it stir up our wrath? Though the Sophomores, Juniors and Seniors Make fun of the Freshmen new. We’ll have to admit, they have done their hit When there was anything hard to do. —Nolan Alexander. S926i r --- .1 unior and Senior Preps. The Junior and Senior Preps are the classes of 1931 and 1930 respectively. Our number is smaller this year than it has been for several years. Professor John Hale and Miss Ethel Hill are our sponsors, who have been ever faithful and loyal to the organization; always ready to help. At the beginning of the year we organized with Elvira Peterson as president. The one social function we enjoyed during the year was a party at the gymnasium. Although we are smaller than some of the other classes we are 100 per cent strong for K. S. T. C. Though we have a long journey ahead of us in the educational field we are hoping that nothing will prevent our completing our college course in this institution. When the new Training School building is completed the Junior and Senior Preps will become a part of the Nebraska State Teachers College Training School High School. Training School. The Training School is an essential part of the Nebraska State Teachers College at Kearney. It is composed of five departments: The kindergarten under the super- vision of Miss Agnes Knutzcn, the first and second grades under Miss Malvina Scott, the third and fourth grades under Miss Ida Brink, and the fifth and sixth grades un- der Miss Lugcnia Gladney. Miss Cora O’Connell is principal of the Training School High School with Miss Florence Case as Social Science critic and Miss Alberta Gib- bons as Mathematics and Science critic. The teaching is done by student teachers under the supervision of these capable advisors. The entire Training School is under the direct supervision of Dr. Hans C. Olsen, to whom much credit is due. Student teachers are given an opportunity to meet and deal with actual school room problems here. Indeed it is a valuable part of our college.

Since the fall of 1921 the Women’s League has been numbered among the prom- inent organizations of the college. Each young woman upon entering the college, is automatically a member, and is given the opportunity to attend the excellent meetings. These meetings, which are held on the fourth Tuesday of each month arc sponsored by the Dean of Women. The Women’s League has done much toward promoting the social activities of the school. The mixer, the Hallowe’en party, May Party and the Valentine Tea, as well as numerous other minor affairs have been the result of the united efforts of the league. The dues of the league make up a Student Loan Fund, which has made college possible for a number of girls. Top Row—Mrs. Idaroso Saunders, President; Ethel Hill.

A. has for its purpose: to unite the women students of the college in common loyalty to Jesus Christ, bringing them to accept Him as their personal Savior, building them up in the knowledge of Christ through Bible Study and Christian Service, and enlisting their co-operation with the Christian Church and with other religious workers in the institution. The women students of the college have always evidenced an interest in this or- ganization, as is shown by its enrollment, at present being approximately two hun- dred fifty. 'flic organization meets every Thursday morning at nine-forty for programs and devctionals. Besides these, the Y. V. gives an annual banquet, aids in the special Thanksgiving and Christmas services, sponsors “The Nativity” play, the Holiday Festival, and invites the student body to an Faster Tea. In general, it unites with other leading organizations in carrying out programs that will enrich the lives of its girls. Top Row—Win.

The Young Men’s Christian Association of the Nebraska State Teachers College at Kearney is one of the strongest organizations in the school. They have carried out a program of education in international affairs which has been a benefit to not only the young men of the college but to the school as a whole. The organization has been instrumental in securing Ben Cherrington, Doctor Fling. Kirby Page, John Buskin and other world citizens to speak before the students and faculty on world conditions and problems. Not only has there been an extensive program of this kind carried through but also there have been regular meetings every Wednesday evening in the Y. M. rooms at the gymnasium in which topics of vital importance have been discussed and special talks given by outside men who arc interested in student welfare. The Y. M. C. A. this year is one of the strongest the school has had for years. This success is due to a great extent to the efforts of the president, William Nicholas of Kearney and the sponsor. Professor J. I. Englcman along with the cooperation of the cabinet and the support of the members. Y. W. C. A. ROOM Professor B. H.

The Catholic Student Association was organized in the early history of the school by Prof. B. II. Patterson and under his guidance and direction, has grown each year in numbers and in loyalty to its cause. Moral education with a religious basis will not suffice in building the character of youth. Definite teachings of religion arc the only secure foundation for adequate moral training. A systematic study of the literature and history connected with our church and faith and the correlation of this with our College training for better citizenship and living, is the aim of the or- ganization. Programs each week arc planned with the above aim in view and are given each Thursday morning. Professor J. F. Matthews, assistant faculty sponsor, is always interested in the activities of the Catholic Students Association. The students arc fortunate in having an elegantly furnished room in which to hold their meetings. This room is the gift of the Nebraska Knights of Columbus who have always evinced a deep interest in the Catholic young people. A well chosen library made up of fiction and reference is at the student’s disposal. Several social meetings arc held each year, among which arc picnics that arc always well attended and thoroughly enjoyed. Top Row—Burt, H. Albrecht. Martin Kelson, President Martin, Morrow, M.

The first student unit of the National Educational Association to be established in the United States has been organized by the prospective teachers in the Nebraska State Teachers College at Kearney. The unit is made up of eighty-seven paid up members. The regular meetings held on the first Monday of every month have been well attended. The programs have consisted of discussions on topics of interest to those of the teaching profession. Professor H. 0. Sutton, head of the Physical Science Department at the college, gave the first address and told of the values of such a student unit and what it could do toward professional gains. Following the N. E. A. meeting at Washington, Miss Lula Wirt and Professor Powell gave accounts of their experiences there. Professor Hobson of the Kearney High School and Dr. H. C. Olsen, director of the Teachers Training School spoke at a later meeting. Professor Hobson presented a plan for a general science course and Dr. Olsen discussed the teacher profession from the viewpoint of both the teacher and the school board. The officers for the organization arc: president, Carroll Anderson; vice presi- dent, Arthur Areharl; secretary and treasurer, Martin Nelson; program committee. Seth Compton, Mrs. Wigton and Mildred Mycr. I Forensic League. The Forensic League was organized in 1922 in response to the rising need for support to the teams during the dehate season. The one great purpose of the organi- zation is the promotion of intercollegiate debating. Members of the Aspasian .and Emanon societies automatically became members of the Forensic League. From this nucleus officers were elected. Since that time the Orophelian literary society was organized and admitted to the league. Recently the local plan of organization has changed and the officers of the named societies take charge of the Forensic program, each for one quarter. Opportunity is given each society to enter on a more or less extensive program. The programs this year have varied from mere social gatherings to the discussion of some very weighty topics. The state deflate question, “Resolved: That the con- stitution of the United States should he amended in such a way as to give Congress power to regulate Child Labor,” was the source of many interesting discussions. Student government was discussed pro and con. A few of the meetings have been entirely of a musical nature. Miss Amic Gilbert attended a meeting of the Nebraska Forensic Association in Lincoln, early in the school year. At that meeting the state debate question was chosen and other problems discussed. In April Miss Ruby Bowen represented the league at the second association meeting of the year. At this meeting the officers for the year 1926 and 1927 were elected. The peace oratorical contest, which bad formerly been managed by Wesleyan University, was taken over by the Forensic Association. The local contest was held May 6. The tryouts for the extemporaneous contest were also held at this time. The general topic for this contest was “Present tendencies in modern education.” These arc just a few of the things Forensic League tries to do. Needless to say an organization with so worthy an aim and such an immense program is a strong link in the chain which connects the college with the outside world. Top Row—Hanthoruo, Hayden. Mr. A. L.

I lie Emanon Literary Society with the constructive criticism and helpful guid- ance of Professor A. L. Phillips has just finished another successful year. This is the organization which takes hesitant, unexperienced college boys who have never faced an audience and by putting them through a process turns them out as orators or debaters who enjoy to stand before an audience and feel its emotions sway under their skillful oratory and ready command of English. The past year under the direction of capable officers the society held a series of debates. New material was developed, which in one instance succeeded in de- feating a team of experienced debaters composed of junior and senior college stu- dents. Immediately following these debates, came the practice on the Emanon Stunt for the Zip Club’s Annual Show Down. It was a farce on the United States Senate investigation committee, entitled “Nothing But the Truth.” Five Emanons were placed on the first debate squad this year. Three of them had never debated on a college team before. Thus they learned by doing. Sfevv--; 1192© ---- ----Sag Top Row—Way, A. Brown, Banks, Saunders, A. Gilbert, I. Gilbert, Yetter, Day.

The Aspasian Literary Society was organized in response to the need for a girl’s, organization which would promote social welfare and foster educational unity in the school. At no time during the history of the organization has it failed to uphold the highest standards of the institution. Meetings are held regularly each week. The last meeting of each month how- ever is given over to the Forensic League. This gives the three literary societies opportunity to communicate their ideas to each other. This year the Aspasian group has become acquainted with many of Nebraska’s prominent men and women whom they had known but little about. They took very active parts in both the Christmas Festival and the Showdown. Later they pledged their support to the invitation high school basket ball tournament. Aspasians are loyal and willing, always alert to the knock of opportunity. •5 19261 - Top Row—Rogers, Poole, Jackson, Bulin, Powers, Rcinertson.

It meets every Thursday evening at 7 o’clock. Interesting programs consisting of readings, music, games, speeches, debates and discussions on current topics are presented. Much of the credit for the success of our meetings and the excellent co- operation of the members in the various activities is due our sponsor, Miss Katherine Neptune, who is always ready and willing to help as well as advise.

The Zeta Chapter of Pi Kappa Delta was installed in the Nebraska State Teach- ers College at Kearney in 1921. Only those who have won honors in debate or ora- tory are eligible for membership, thus there can never be a large number of active members in any one college. Nebraska Zeta includes three faculty members; Mr. A. L. Phillips, Mr. John Matthews and Dr. Ralph Noyer, all belonging to the order of instruction. The past year, Nebraska Zeta sponsored the largest debate tryout held in Kear- ney College since the war. Miss Margaret Yoder was sent as delegate to the national meeting which was held in Estes Park. At the national meeting it was decided to inaugurate regional meetings which will alternate with the national meetings making each meet every two years. The officers are: president, Homer McConnell; vice-president, Kermit Jackson; secretary, Amie Gilbert. Top Row—Ally� Hanthorne, John Lancaster, Homer McConnell, Margaret Yoder, Hermit Jackson.

The following people represented Kearney in Intercollegiate debate this year: Affirmative—Jack Wheelock, Amic Gilbert, Ruby Bowen, Nolan Alexander, Kenneth Downing. Negative—Homer McConnell, Margaret Yoder, John Lancaster, Kcrmit Jackson, Allyn Hanthorne. The debates were held in the month of March, beginning on March 4, and con- tinuing every Thursday and Friday night throughout the month until March 28. During that time Kearney College met the following colleges in either dual or triangu- lar debate: Omaha University, Cotncr, Peru, Midland, Wesleyan, Doane, Central, Grand Island, York and Hastings. The question used this year was the National Pi Kappa Delta question: Re- solved that the United States Constitution should be amended so as to give Congress the power to regulate Child Labor. A word of appreciation is due Miss Anna V. Jennings, eollege librarian, who secured all available material and placed this at the disposal of the debators in the debate room. The team also owes much to their coach, Miss Miriam Eckhardt, who spent time and effort in securing the best help available for them as well as giving freely of her own time.

Early last fall the members of the English Three class felt the need of some sys- tematic plan for aiding each other in the improvement of both their oral and their written English. After a number of discussions they decided to band themselves into a little club, the purpose of which would be making of good English a habit. They finally decided to organize a little club to carry out this purpose. The English Reformers is the outcome of their efforts. Early in November of 1925 they adopted some rules and regulations of pro- cedure and formulated the Ten Commandments of English. They adopted a poem, “The Song of Big Things,” as the club’s incentive and proccded to be governed by the spirit of the Commandments and they became a very helpful and lively organ- ization. Next year they hope to grow and expand into one of the active and permanent clubs of the Kearney State Teachers College. Top Row—Murrish, Myrtle Davis, Way. McConnell, Miss Jennie Conrad, Mr. C. N.

Anderson for the purpose of fostering interest in pioneer life, and for collecting material related to Nebraska history. The club continued as an organization until 1918, then other interests carried the students away from history. Through the efforts of Prof. C. N. Anderson and Miss Jennie Conrad the club was reorganized in September 1924. This years program has been entirely devoted to the study of the life on the trails and in the forts and ranch houses throughout our state. Valuable sources of the history of Fort Kearney have come into possession of the club. These are re- productions of drawings of the buildings of the fort, and the blue prints of the gov- ernment buildings of the old fort. Old pioneers in and about Kearney have contri- buted other reminiscences of the early days. In convocation on April 30, the club presented historical tales of Indians and descriptions of the trail life. Top Row—Reilcy, Morrow, Pollard, Burt, Hayden, Herring.

For several years students and visitors at the college may have noticed posters announcing meetings of “La Sociedad Espanola.” If they have any knowledge of the beautiful language of Spain they will have little difficulty in recognizing it to he “The Spanish Club.” But though they may have guessed the name, they have interpreted but the smallest part of that which the poster really foretells. To those belonging to La Sociedad Espanola a meeting signifies many things. These meet- ings, although held only once a month, are crowded with all the fun, entertainment and sociability that can be crowded into one short hour. Spanish plays, songs, and dramatizations are mingled with music, games and refreshments. La Sociedad Espanola is sponsored by Miss Ethel Hill, of the Modern Language Department, but is governed and managed by students. Those belonging feel that much benefit, as well as pleasure, is derived from each meeting and they leave feeling some of the true warmth of feeling that is attributed the people of that far away sunny land.

Lc Cercle Francais was organized in 1914 to supplement the class room work by giving the students additional opportunity for practice in using French in a practical way, and also as a social feature of the work of the department. The club meets once each month at which time a business meeting is held, follow- ed by an interesting program the purpose of which is to secure a better understand- ing of the French people. With understanding comes an appreciation for their man- ners and customs and adds interest and background to the work. For the programs, subjects are chosen which are not taken up in the regular class work or which need further emphasis; such as, French music, history of French literature, painting, sculpture, architecture, and a study of the lives of French Patriots. The social feature of the meeting consists of French songs and games and refreshments. The officers for the year arc: president, Dorothy Williams; vice president, Marie Lundberg; secretary, Miirae Lundberg; treasurer, Sadie Morrison. 3319261 ----- Top Row—Banks, Hendrickson.

It has a membership of twenty-five students who work to accomplish something worth while in the classical field. The purpose of the club is to stimulate interest in Latin and to create and strengthen the desire for it. In addition to the regular business meetings which are held monthly, the club enjoyed a delightful picnic supper in Black’s woods in the fall. The fact that some of the beef steak was not very well done did not seem to concern anyone. i t| Top Row—Martin Nelson, Dr. Olsen, Dr. Noyrr, Doyle, Carroll Anderson. Second Row—Alexander.

It was managed chiefly by its three officers; president, Katherine Boyle: librarian, Beryl Pearson; manager. Hazel Panck. Its first undertaking was a trip to Hastings in October where a program was broadcast from station KFKX. Convocation programs were given at two different times by the joint glee clubs. In February the girls journeyed to Clay Center, Nebr., where another program was broadcast from station KMMj. Later they sang before the Wilcox Parent-Teach- er Association and similar programs were given at Hildreth and Newark. The Wo- men’s Club of Kearney and also the high school were entertained by the Club during the season. Special music was given at the Methodist Church and later at the laying of the corner stone for the new Teachers College training school building. During the first and second quarter Miss Erna Camp, of Cozad, was accompan- ist for the girls club. For the third quarter two accompanists assisted in the con- certs, Miss Beryl Pearson, of Kearney, and Miss Mildred Burman, of Kearney. The climax of their work was the assistance in the production of the opera, “The Mikado.” During the first two quarters the glee club was under the direction of Professor George H. Allcr. Mr. Aller was eompelled to give up the strenuous work and take a vacation on account of his health and Professor R. C. Rogers stepped in and took control. Much credit is due Mr. Allcr and Mr. Rogers for the splendid work of the glee club. Top Row—Whcclock, Burt, French, F. Albrecht, Post, Moore, M. Nelson. Second Row—Roush. Nicholas, Baker, Archart, D.

The Men's Glee Club composed of twenty-four trained voices made more than twenty out of town appearances during the past season. During the first quarter this organization, under the direction of Professor Geo. H. A Her, made a tour through the western part of the state, with Broadwater as the principal point. The club appeared on the Lyceum course at Broadwater and on the trip they sang in thirteen different towns. On February fiftli and sixtli they broadcast from Lincoln and Omaha respec- tively. After the concerts from station KFAB at Lincoln and station WOAW at Omaha a great number of letters were received from various parts of the world ex- pressing appreciation of the musical program. The last trip of the season was to Edison where the club appeared in an evening concert. In connection with the Ladies’ Glee Club they appeared in concert at Hil- dreth a few days later. “The Mikado,” a Gilbert and Sullivan operetta was the big undertaking of the season. Under the direction of Professor R. C. Rogers the Men’s and Ladies’ Glee Clubs presented the operetta in a very creditable manner, receiving appreciation and praise from all who were fortunate enough to hear it. The glee clubs, orchestra, band and other musical organizations of Kearney College have gone far toward showing that our school has a department of music ranking the equal of any school or university in the state. I « i a.9261 - ORCHESTRA. Orchestra. One of the outstanding organizations of the college the past year lias been the College Orchestra under the direction of Professor K. C. Rogers. The orchestra, or- ganized at the beginning of the school year, is well balanced and consists of thirty- five pieces. The marked progress of this organization was noticeable in the two Symphony Concerts given, one at the close of the first and the second at the close of the second quarter. These concerts were highly appreciated by the students and resi- dents of Kearney. During the third quarter the orchestra took a prominent part in the activities of the school. It played the accompaniment to the opera “Mikado,” presented by the Boys’ and Girls’ Glee Clubs and also furnished the music for the May Fete given by the Physical Training Department of the College. The music, although of an en- tirely different nature from that of the previous quarters, was played with the same degree of excellence as were the Symphony Concerts. This organization has proved to be popular and has been called upon many times during the year for concerts. It has appeared several times on programs given at the affiliated schools. The members of the local P. E. 0. Chapter, realizing the ability of the orchestra to render a worth while program, asked that the orchestra give a half hour concert at the opening meeting of the State P. E. 0. convention held at Kearney in the spring. The orchestra has broadcast programs from station KFKX at Hastings at dif- ferent times, and they have received letters from many parts of the world, expressing appreciation for the splendid programs given. The Band. The Kearney State Teachers College band was originally organized under the leadership of Professor B. H. Patterson. It has each year been a prominent factor in the activities of the college. This year the organization was transferred to the able guidance of Professor R. C. Rogers who has increased the number of pieces in the band and otherwise aided the development of the band. During the football and basketball seasons the band was very much in demand and it did some very creditable work at the various games. It made trips with the teams to other places and played at all contests at home. The organization had charge of a convocation program during the second quarter which was very much appreciated by the students and faculty. ft I THE BAND KIyto Hurt ......

They have assisted in Glee Club concerts and college and community programs; also have broadcast from Hastings, Lincoln and Omaha. They have appeared in concerts at Mason City, Holdrege, Axlell, Alda, Glcmvood, Elwood, Edison and North Platte. Their success as entertainers is evinced by the many calls from different communi- ties. Concerts will be given at Miller, Axteil and Hazard before the season closes.

The B Natural Club is an organization composed of the students in the college who have taken work in the Piano department. It was organized early in the first quarter 1925 with Mrs. Hull of the music department sponsoring the organization. Once each month the club meets and makes a study of some phase of music with relation to the piano or with the study of composition of music or the composers. The latter part of each program consists of piano selections by members of the club. It is intended that each member of the club shall play at least once before the other members during the year. After playing before an audience of this kind it is less dif- ficult to play before a larger and more critical audience, and some have played in convocation. The whole aim of the organization is to encourage the appreciation of good music and the study and practice of producing good music. It makes it possible for the students to be natural when playing, discussing or listening to good music. 1 he Antelope. Margaret Yoder Editor HOMER Morrow ........................... Associate Editor K hr mit JACKSON ....................... Business Manager Hakoi.d Hayden .................................. Typist | L The Antelope. Kearney’s student publication, advancing from an 11x16 inch sheet to a ten gaily edition has completed the fifteenth year of its existence. Based on the contingent fund, the paper devotes most of its space to school news and ar- ticles written by the college students. The paper has grown with the school, stands for it, and is at the service of the students and faculty. During the past year the Antelope lias attempted to encourage free speech and unbiased, opinion among the students. Both sides of important questions and prob- lems have been printed in the sheet and the student opinion column has been open to all, and many have taken advantage of it. Three new columns have been added to the paper, all edited by students and all representing original work, the Cantalope, Caustic Comment, and the Antelope Tracks. The Antelope has a constantly growing exchange list. This year over a hun- dred colleges and high schools are on the regular mailing list. Many new ones have been added this year including larger schools and universities. The alumni list is increasing until it amounts to almost one-third of the student circulation. More Antelopes have been printed this year than ever before, a total of nearly a thousand. Academy of Science and Mathematics. The Academy of Science and Mathematics is one of the largest organizations in the Kearney State Teachers College. It was organized March 3, 1915 for the pur- pose of creating and promoting an intelligent interest in science and mathematics and for keeping the students up to date in current and scientific research. Its mem- bers, both active and associate, include the students recommended from the follow- ing departments; Biology, Earth Science, Heme Economics, Mathematics, and Physical Science with the faculty members from these respective departments. The monthly programs deal with seme phase of science and are furnished either by the members of the different departments or by outside talent. The resume be- low will give some idea of the nature of ths programs: Harriet Burrows prepared a paper on “Can Tuberculosis be Cured,” John Bean on “Trees in Kearney,” Marguerite Martin on “Microorganisms” and Clinton Gitchell on the “Life of Pasteur.” Merle Pierce gave an ac- count of his. hike from Kearney to Frisco. Havmond Hanzal talked on “History of Mathematics.” Gerald Humbert explained the use of the “Slide Rule” in Mathematics. Julius Schneider discussed “Current Topics in Science.” Martin John- son gave us some demonstrations with the Radio and its latest inventions. We arc indebted to Wayne Danielson for several good discussions; one on “Wonders of Coal Tar,” another on the gas plant and its operation. At another time we were highly entertained by some chemical tricks, which the magician declared were easy if you knew how. Professor Mercer discussed the weather and the meaning of the Sun spots. Carrol Anderson prepared a paper on “Evolution” which was highly entertaining as well as instructive. Dr. Smith from the State Tuberculosis Hospital spent one evening with us discussing tuberculosis and its causes. Top Row—Burt, Hayden. Jackson, Thurman. Second Row—Van Lueven, Horton. Mrs. Wigton.

The aim in this department as in other depart- ments, is primarily teacher training. The aim of the club, however, is to assist in the promotion of the general interests of the student from the social point of view as well as from the strict utilitarian view. To accomplish this the social side of man’s nature is not overlooked. Good fellowship gatherings are held occasionally when the organization, which is composed of forty members, meets to enjoy a banquet. Speakers from the industries as well as from the school are invited to speak at these gatherings. Tiiesc speakers do not necessarily represent any one field of endeavor. The constitution calls for the promotion of general educational aims rather than the special. A student need not he majoring in industrial education in order to be- come a member, he needs only show a reasonable interest in the promotion of in- dustrial education. The officers, sponsors and charter members of this organiza- tion are continually emphasizing the general aims of education. Other school ac- tivities must not be neglected by the club members. Although education may he specialized, it is alwayse a joint process which re- quires co-operative forces of the special with the general field. One is not educated if he is confined entirely to a special field. This fact being recognizd the Manna Arts Club considers this one of its existing problems, to educate in many fields. ■--xa926XZ'---- Top Row—Soward, Bell. Second Row—Denton, Jacobsen, B.

C. was organized for the purpose of obtain- ing a practical, first band knowledge of modern, progressive business methods. From its beginning in February 1926, the club has received the co-operation of prominent Kearney business men. Mr. George Burgert, vice-president of the City National Bank, gave the club an inspiring address on the opportunities awaiting the commer- cial graduate of today and the services demanded from him. Superintendent R. V. Clark, of the Slate Industrial Schooi, conducted the club through that institution, lecturing on every phase of its management from the dairy to the executive offices. Mr. D. P. Rankin, manager of the Kearney Flour Mills, took the club through the mill, demonstrating the process of manufacture and giving much interesting in- formation regarding business methods in both foreign and domestic trade. Mr. Ran- kin also took the club into a small factory where he manufactures steel driving belts and explained the process of obtaining and protecting patents and of putting a new product on the market. The teaching side of commercial work has been emphasized by Mr. Patterson who addressed the club, at its first meeting, on professionalism in business. The social side has not been neglected. A lively picnic with an exciting ball game, a roaring camp-fire and a big picnic supper and other social affairs have helped care for this part of the club work. Many interesting events are planned for the future, including an inspection trip through the various departments of the Post Office. Demonstrations of specialized modern office appliances are to he made by several public-spirited firms in the city. The sponsors of the club are: B. II. Patterson, J. H. Hale, and Mrs. Ethel Craig Sutton. The officers of the club arc: president, Mrs. Louise Wigton; vice-president, G. V. Soward; secretary and treasurer, Elizabeth Loomis; program chairman, Emily Ireland. Top Row—Professor Fulmer, Huber, Pcttijolm, Downing, Haught. Second Row—Carcaskadon, Best, Reily, Waldman.

Its purpose is to arouse and stimulate interest and maintain a high physical efficiency in athletics, gymnas- tics and recreational work. Basket ball, swimming, hiking, soccer, hockey, tennis and track are offered in season. The point system of the A. C. A. C. W. has been adopted. This year the association is sponsoring a May Fete, a review of Nebraska his- tory, in which approximately two hundred girls arc participating. -331926IX'-- Top Row—Nelson, McConnell, Capps, Paine, Clyde Cox, Morrow, Nicholas, French, Best, Hayden, Alex- ander, Hutchins Arehart.

The Zip Club of the Nebraska State Teachers College at Kearney was organized in 1924 and since that time has remained the foremost promoter of school spirit and enthusiasm for all intercollegate contests. The Zij) Club participated in the Holiday Festival and sponsored the second an- nual Showdown. The Showdown and the Boner, which was given during the summer quarter, help to provide funds to buy awards for the teams representing the college in intercol legate activities. The aim of the Zip Club is to promote loyalty and school spirit and to co-operate at all times with the other school organizations. This organization is limited to forty members of which eleven arc seniors, seven juniors, fourteen sophomores, two hon- orary, and the remaining arc freshmen. The club is very fortunate in having as its sponsor Miss Florence Case, Social Science critic of the training school who has been a faithful worker and a loyal sponsor.

The Treatre Arts League lias spent a busy, but enjoyable year under the capable direction of Miss Miriam Eckhardt, sponsor. In September eleven new members were elected, bringing the number of active members up to thirty. In addition to ill regular bi-monthly meetings, the Theatre Arts League has held three successful social events. The first was the initiation of new members followed by refreshments at the Royal Chocolate Shoppe. During the second quarter a party in the Y. M. C. A. rooms furnished a pleasant evening. As is the custom in the league, the event of the spring term was a picnic. Such an outing always proves delightful. i Theatre Arts League. Members of the league have presented two evenings of jolly entertainment dur- ing the year. November 20, three one-act plays were presented: “Best of All Ways” hv Julia Whitley, “Evening Dress Indispensable” by Roland Pertwee, and “Cab- bages” by Edward Staadt. “Evening Dress Indispensable” was presented as a num- ber of the Orpheum the evening of the Holiday Festival. Despite the small stage and lack of proper stage setting, “The Best of All Ways” was successfully staged at the banquet of the Kearney Woman’s Club. The members of this east again gave the play in convocation. “Cabbages,” the comedy in German dialect, was taken to Lowell and to Newark where it was presented before the Parent Teachers Associa- tions. The truck rides to and from these schools proved entertaining and exciting for the cast members. Later this play was presented in convocation. On the evening of March 10, the three act comedy, “A Full House,” was staged before a large audi- ence. The quality of the acting in all the plays was especially good, due to the talent of the members of the casts and to the work of the director. The Theatre Arts League takes pride in another of its achievements of the year. At the Annual Showdown the Theatre Arts League took first place with a short bur- lesque, “The Fatal Quest.” The prize, a ten dollar gold piece, was returned to the Zip Club to help purchase sweaters for our K” men. At the request of the Woman’s League Council “The Fatal Quest” was presented at the reception given by the college women for the Kearney Woman’s (dub members.

The Rural Club. The purpose of the Rural Club is to give teachers training in social service and leadership which is needed especially in the rural school and rural community. Ac- tual practice in cultivating the ability of leadership is obtained in the regular meet- ings which are held at the first and third Tuesdays of each month. All of the meet- ings arc of an educational nature. Programs are given by the students, members of the faculty and speakers from outside the college. In this way teachers in training may sec what can be developed along the line of activities. Teachers go back to their work with renewed enthusiasm and zeal for socialized education and better com- munity service. The Rural Club has tried to add to the knowledge of its members and because of this it has grown rapidly and today is one of the largest and most active of the school organizations. May it live on!

Rural schools affiliated with teachers colleges have long been common as devices for teacher training purposes, hut only at Kearney has the affiliated system been made to work as much as eleven months in the year. In the six village and rural schools (Glenwood, Riverdale, Mack, Victor, Center and Newark) observation facilities and practice teaching opportunities are provided for the ever increasing number of registrants in rural courses. It is necessary, there- fore, that these schools be under the constant supervision of the director of rural training. It is also inevitable that the teachers in these affiliaed schools work with the college in the closest harmony. All of them are, or have been, students in the regular rural courses. Several of them are graduates of the two-year college course and all of them receive ten hours credit for the work they do under supervision and in the study center conferences, which meet as regular class exercises during the year. So enthusiastic is the response of patrons to the affiliation scheme that Professor R. W. Powell, director of the Department of Rural Education, is beset with requests from other communities for similar affiliation. As rapidly as they can be integrated into tbc system, they arc taken on, and in time are given full privileges of the de- partment’s careful supervision. An annual Patron’s Day, featuring tbc contests in every subject taught in the rural schools, is a traditional feature of the affiliated scheme. This year the con- tests on Friday, April 23, brought to Kearney College an enthusiastic throng of pa- trons and school children which taxed to the limit the hospitality and facilities af- forded by the college gymnasium. On every hand expressions of patrons were heard to the effect that the advancement made by the children in the affiliated schools dur- ing the past two years was nothing short of extraordinary. Laugh And The World Laughs With You. While collecting material for this subject, 1 asked one fellow student what laughter was, and lie replied: “I don’t know exactly, I guess it's just grinning when you feel good.” I decided to find out how Kearney students really felt toward the subject so I looked up several ideas of famous men on both sides of tlie question and started to investigate. I violated all the college rules by parking near a convenient radiator in the main hall and observing the students as they came and went. Enter Miss Matilda Sour: Her head is high. She looks at everyone with a blank stare, as if unacquainted with everyone, grunts a sour How-do-you-do” to a passing instructor and out-docs the famous Children of Israel fleeing from Pharoah, in getting through the crowd so that she won’t have to speak or smile at anyone. Miss Matilda, is evidently a believer in Catullus when lie said: “Nam risu inepto res ineptoir nulla est,” or “Nothing is sillier than silly laughter,” and she so firmly believes in it that she is frightened for fear that if she did laugh someone would think she were silly. I haven’t any remedy for persons of this sort, to me they are almost beyond aid of any kind, and the more you try to make them happy or smile, the more morose they get. Enter Sally Sunshine: The outdoor sunshine and the spring weather seems to come right in the door with her. Immediately the students standing around recog- nize her and one after another greet her. She has a smile for everyone and every- body seems to know her. Sally is a staunch believer of John Wolcott who said: “Care to our coffin adds a nail, no doubt; and every Grin, so merry, draws one out.” The result of Sally’s philosophy is that everyone likes her and is ready to serve her, or as the common term, she is popular. Did you ever notice the student that laughed at everything? Did you ever sec a fellow make his friend angry by laughing at him? Pope in his Epilogue to Satire says: “Laugh at your friends, and if your friends are sore, so much the better, you may laugh the more.” Shakespeare in his famous Othello says: “They laugh that win.” Everybody likes the joyful student and everybody avoids the sulky, highbrow or timid one, who refuses to speak in the halls or on the campus. Ella Wheeler Wilcox in her famous “Solitude” says its better, 1 believe than it has ever been said by another: Laugh and the world laughs with you, Weep and you weep alone. For this sad old earth must borrow its mirth, It has troubles enough of its own. —Margaret Yoder. (An editorial in the Antelope of April twenty-third, Nineteen twenty-six.) COACH FRED R. FULMER.

Kearney wound up the 1925 football season by playing Midland College on the home field. Out of the seven conference games, Kearney men landed four. The first con- ference game was played at Central City. Kearney defeated the Centralians 35-0. The next game was with our old friend Peru. Of course we did not want to hurt their feelings so we let them beat us 20-0. Next came Hastings. We were not quite so liberal with them as we were with Peru. We let them win by a score of 6-0 We will all remember the day we went to Grand Island and saw Capps make that sensational run of 75 yards for a touchdown and how the rest of the team mowed down the Grand Island players which made the run possible. Well that was the day we beat Grand Island 13 to 6. The next Friday was Homecoming Day and that was the day we fought Doane College for 55 minutes and 30 seconds, and the score stood 0-0. Thirty seconds yet to fight. We were within striking distance of the goal that Doane was defending. There was just one thing to do. Brick Carskadon was called back. The hall was passed to Reilly who held it true and Brick’s toe met the ball square and sent it straight between the goal posts, thirty yards away. It cleared the bar. The whistle blew while the ball was in the air and the game was over when the ball struck the ground. 3-0 in favor of Kearney. Brick was the hero of the day. The Kearney team the next week went to Coiner and defeated them 12-6. The last game of the season was played on the home field on Turkey Day when we lost to Mid- land 6-0. We opened athletic relationship with the University of Wyoming at Laramie and Colorado Teachers at Greeley. Kearney lost both games but gained valuable ex- perience. Capt.

The next week the A nil opes left on the annual trip to the eastern part of the state and Iowa. They defeated Midland and Omaha University. Tabor, after play- ing two extra periods, won frem the Antelopes. This was not a conference game. The Dana team at Blair, Nebraska, handed Kearney the first conference defeat of the year. Kearney next defeated Grand Island. Then York was taken into camp by the Antelopes. The next week Haught, our faithfud center, became ill with the flu and had to be left heme. Cotncr had little trouble defeating the reorganized team. Peru the state champions, after a hard fight came out with only a seven point lead. York avenged the defeat handed them earlier in the season by the Antelopes. The next week Cotner came to Kearney and after a hard fight won by a few points. Next Wayne defeated the Antelopes. The next week the Antelopes played their second game with Omaha University. It was the most outstanding game of the season. It showed what the Antelopes were capable of doing. You will all remem- ber how the score stood at the end of the first half. Seventeen to two in favor of Omaha University, and how the Antelopes came back and in fifteen minutes tied the score. Never before on the Kearney floor had such a come-back been staged. When the game was over, Kearney was ahead. This game gave Kearney sixth place in the conference. We won seven and lost six conference games. xH926X T---- ('(Mitral College Midland College ....................... Dana College ................................ Omaha Uni. (Extra period) ........

Track is th newest of major sports at Kearney College. Our first track team was organized in 1923, and since that time there has been a steady growth of interest in the sport. Nearly all previous records were broken in 1925. The largest num- ber of men in the history of the spoil reported for practice at the opening of the 1926 season and many records were broken before the season was half over. The college records at Kearney, made in Intercollegiate meets, including the first half of the 1926 season are as follows: 1(H) Yards—Roberts, 1924—10:4. 220Yard—Roberts, 1924—23:4. 140 Yards—Roberts, 1924 —56:1. 880 Yards—Clyde Cox, 1926—2:10.1.

She is always busy but never too busy to do something more if she can help somebody. She was an active worker in Xi Phi, Y. W. C. A. and the class organizations. Miss Doyle has had experience in district deaconess work in the cities of the oil field district of the south, and plans upon going to India as a missionary and teacher after receiving her degree from K. S. T. C. Wherever she may go, she will always carry with her the best wishes of her classmates of K. S. T. C. Amie Gilbert Amie Gilbert, of Arnold, was the choice of the second largest group of students for the most popular woman in college. Amie has been on the debate teams repre- senting Kearney College the past two years and as secretary of the Zeta Pi Kappa Delta did all of the correspondence relating to intercollegate debates the past season. She has had an active part in Xi Phi, Zip Club, Pi Kappa Delta, Y. W. C. A., N. E. A., Aspasians and class organizations. During her Junior year she was as- sistant to Mrs. Elliott, dean of women, and during her senior year she was manager of the Stexy. Amie receives her A. B. from Kearney in August 1926 and will again join the ranks of the teaching profession. Gladys Cronk Gladys Cronk, of Los Angeles, California, was the choice of the third largest number of students for the most popular girl in college. Gladys won second place in the similar contest last year. Everybody knew “Gladie” for her sunny disposition, her determination to succeed, and her force of character. To know her is very much worth anyone’s while. At the close of the second quarter Gladys received her two- year diploma and left school for her home in California where she is helping her father in his business. While in college she was ever active in the organizations. She belonged to Xi Phi, Zip Club, Aspasians, Y. W. C. A. and class organizations. Julius Schneider All students in Kearney College in 1925 and 1926 know Julius. Furthermore it is our prediction that before many years the range will have extended a great deal farther. We expect big things of him and feel sure we shall not be disappointed. Julius was an active worker in Xi Phi, Y. M. C. A., Emanons, Zip Club, Academy of Science and Mathematics, and French Club. He completed his course in this school for his A. B. Degree at the close of the first quarter and left for Ames, Iowa, where he took up his work in science for his Master Degree. Homer McConnell Homer McConnell, a Junior in Kearney College, was choice of the second largest group of students. “Mac” is well known for his work in college activities of all kinds, but he is well known also because he is just “Mac.” For the past three years he has represented Kearney in intercollegiate debates. He was chosen for Yell Leader the past two years by the vote of the students. “Mac” is active in Xi I I Phi, Zip Club, Pi Kappa Delta, Emanons, . M. C. A., N. E. A. and class organiza- tions. We’ll hear more of Homer in his senior year. William Nicholas William Nicholas, of Mason City, a junior in college was the choice of the third largest group of students for the most popular man in college. Bill is an active member of many of the organizations of the school. He was president of the Y. M. C. A. during the third quarter of 1925 and the first two quarters of 1926. While in this office Bill with the help of his cabinet built up one of the strongest organizations it has ever had in Kearney college. He is an active member of Zip Club, the Glee Club and is a member of the Male Quartet which gave concerts in different parts of the state in the spring of ’26. Who’s Who. As we look back over the records of the school and see the names of the many students who have completed their work here and gone out into the world, we find there many who have written their names on the hearts of the people with whom they work. We find them making a winning fight as they climb rung by- rung up the ladder of experience. It would be impossible for us to list all of the successful persons who have graduated from Kearney college even if it were possible for us to set a standard by which to measure success. Some of those who liave been out in the field and who arc doing things which may be measured by a scale which we call success are: Mr. George Ritchey, 1912, while a student in Kearney helped in the Agriculture department and became very much interested in that branch of work. After leaving here he taught in Technical High School in Omaha, then in Cornell College, Iowa. He then entered a Mission school at Indianapolis and was sent as a missionary to China. Here he is employed in Nanking University at Nanking. China, a school kept up by four churches, Methodist, Presbyterian, Baptist and Christian. For seven years he has been working in charge of the agriculture department, improving the types of wheat, corn, rice and other crops in an attempt to eliminate the awful famines of that country. He took a year’s furlough in 1926. Miss Alice Hanthornc, 1909, after leaving school here taught in the Peru Normal School. She then became supervisor of the Kindergartens in Lincoln. For several years she has been Kindergarten Superintendent of the Cleveland City- Schools. Miss Hanthornc published a hook on primary teaching which has met with much favorable comment. Dr. Mablc Hammond, 1914, after leaving school became a missionary to China. She is now in charge of the McGaw hospital in Foo Chow, China. Miss Martha McCutchen is a Methodist Missionary to China. She with another white woman has charge of a school on the island of Haitang where many Chinese students arc learning things formerly unknown. Miss McCutchen was home on a year’s furlough in 1926. Miss, Inez Martin, 1920, is a graduate student of Columbia Teachers College in 1922-23. She is now assistant Professor of Education in Coiner University. Phil Pierson, 1923, is a student in the University of Wisconsin. While attend- ing school he is also teaching in the department of Sociology. Blue and Gold Staff.

The Alumni Association of the State Normal School and Teachers College at Kearney was organized in 1906. This association is designed to promote in every proper way the interests of the Normal School and Teachers College, and to foster among its members a sentiment of regard for one another and attachment to their alma mater. All graduates are active members of the association. All former students may he associate members. Members of the faculty in active service are honorary mem- bers of the association. The officers are a president, a vice president, a secretary and treasurer. The secretary and treasurer are permanent officers of the association. Aside from the many accomplishments of a professional nature, two other worthy undertakings have been sponsored by the Alumni Association. First, the Alumni Journal published by the Senior Class of 1921. This record shows our alumni in.all professions, and scattered to all parts of the world. Second, the Harriet Sutton Memorial Pipe Organ Fund. This growing fund will provide an organ for alma mater, an organ which every alumnus will be happy to hear. For several years the Alumni Organization has sponsored a dinner and reunion of all alumni and friends of our alma mater attending the sectional meetings of the Nebraska State Teachers Association. An annual meeting of the association occurs in June at Kearney. On this Home- Coming Day the classes graduating twenty years and ten years previous are special guests. The convocation hour is ours on this occasion. Later in the day as youngsters we contest in games. We greet friends in the hall with enthusiastic handclasps, we visit with the faculty in the class rooms, we chat during the afternoon tea, best of all we gather for the alumni dinner with its old songs, its jests and its memories. Stexy. The Stexy is one of the business organizations of the Kearney College. It con- sists of a Student Service bureau in which typing, poster making and other kinds of work is done. It is the aim to give employment to students of the college who are worthy and capable of doing efficient work, and at the same time to provide a place where persons desiring to have work done may come for service. The principal work done is typing and several stenographers are kept busy during their spare time. In addition to the service in this line, the Stexy keeps in stock readings and one-act plays which are sold practically at the cost of copying. The students who desire work register with the manager and when a call comes for help a student is selected from the file who desires that type of work and who is able to work at the periods desired. During the past year it has been very efficiently managed by Miss Amie Gilbert. -- .«gm I m Teachers Placing Bureau. “A satisfactory teacher satisfactorily placed is the best advertisement for a State Teachers College,” is the motto of our Teachers Placing Bureau. With this motto as its guide, the Teachers Placing Bureau exerts its best efforts properly to place every person trained l� y our alma mater. The bureau seeks to keep in touch with the teaching positions in the state and to nominate suitable students or graduates for election to fill vacancies as these occur. It secures and compiles carefully prepared confidential evaluations of each registrant. These evaluations together with a detailed personal statement prepared by the candi- date and his photograph arc placed in the permanent files of the bureau. These permanent records are available at all times to interested employing school author- ities seeking prospective teachers, principals and superintendents. It is the policy of the Teachers Placing Bureau to give school authorities all the facts it has concerning each person being considered for a position. As a result of this policy, school authorities are coming to place greater confidence in the bureau and its work. As students and graduates go out into the field and render services comporting with the estimates of the bureau, its prestige and influence will grow and its capacity to serve authorities and students will increase. Inasmuch as the bureau renders its services without cost to cither employers or registrants, it seeks for its only reward the most sincere and whole-hearted co-opera- tion of those it gives assistance. Kxtension Department. Beginning in September, 1921, with a typewriter table, one chair and a letter file and sixteen registrations for correspondence courses, the Extension Department has grown until it now points to a total of 3207 registrations. During the first six weeks, it was housed in a cloak room on the third floor, the room now used by the Home Economics Department as a storeroom. Today it “hangs out its shingle” at Koom 221. Although the Extension Office still lacks complete equipment, its needs have been met at every turn by generous assistance from the administration office and by occasional contributions of furniture not needed by other departments. The original plan called for part-time extension service on the part of the director who, as need arose, enlisted students to help. Today the director gives full time to the department and has a full-time secretary whose every minute of the day is claimed by duties in the office. In addition to the presentation of correspondence and study center courses, (in themselves heavy responsibilities for any department) the extension service takes care of all the field work done by the college, mails out all the college advertising literature, arranges for lecture and lyceum service for school communities anywhere in Nebraska, makes available a popular consultative service, gathers material for public speakers, assists communities with home-talent dramatic programs and does a flourishing test and measurement business. To the Extension Department for the past two years has been entrusted management of the preliminary academic contests for high schools sponsored by the State University Extension Division. In this project almost the entire college Faculty and many of the students have co-Operated with most satisfactory results. New fields of opportunity disclose themselves to the Extension Department al- most daily. With the growing facilities available to the service, increased responsi- bilities and turning of still more tangible results may safely be predicted. t wt The College Stock. The College Stock Farm under the direct supervision of George E. Arnold, Cus- todian of buildings and grounds, has for its main purpose the furnishing of produce for the college dining hall in order to cut the cost of beard for the students to the lowest possible figure. Mr. Arnold states that the success of the farm this year is largely due to the consistent hard work of the two student helpers, Arthur Curtis of Ansclmo, and Alfon Herring of Riverton. During the winter the feeding pens supplied the college dining hall with most of its meat. Seventeen head of cattle and fifteen head of hogs, all carrying an abund- ance of fat. were killed at intervale and it is believed that the quality of this meat has helped build trade at the College Dining Hall. Milk, which is furnished by the dairy herd, is now being served three times a day at the College Dining Hall. The herd is headed by a registered sire, which took second prize at the Buffalo County Fair. There are seven Holstein cows in the herd, four of which arc thoroughbreds, while the others, although not having papers, are ft I r- well bred. Next year promises to be a prosperous year as four acres of potatoes, one acre of garden and two acres of swcetcorn have already been planted. The twenty acres of alfalfa not only supplies the college farm but produces a surplus. Last year the surplus amounted to two hundred twenty-five dollars. The farm is well improved with a modern cement cowbarn, large enough for the herd. Several smaller sheds and buildings furnish ample shelter for the stock. It is situated ideally for a feeding yard with a sloping surface and the fill of the lake forming a wind break on the north.

They bask in the shade of leafy trees, And mingle with many dear friends, Hut soon they must follow their chosen path And over the hill it wends. It's not so much what you have gained at the end He it more or less than you hope, It’s the surefooted way you follow the trail That proves you’re an Antelope. —Sadie Gouldic Be Proud of Our Libraries In the days of old when reading was done by candle light, libraries did not do a very flourishing busi- ness. Tt was only the extreme student who read. With the coming of the electric light, reading be- came a pleasure. Kearney has taken advantage of this and today it boasts of two fine libraries containing nearly 30,000 volumes—a splendid record for a city of its size. Few cities of its size in America can truthfully make such a boast. The record of our libraries is an indication of the progressiveness of our citizens. “Gas and Electricity With Service” Furniture News LIVING ROOM SUITES. DINING ROOM SUITES. BED ROOM SUITES.
