The most objectionable fea- ture of the old manner of organizing was that it was almost impossible to get the entire class of over three hundred students together at one time. In order to overcome this difficulty, President Seerley devised a new scheme which he suggested to the class at its first meeting early in the fall. His plan was to have the Seniors of each department organize independently and conduct such business as was necessary. This would do away with the necessity of having a meeting of the whole Senior class more than once or twice during the year. When such meetings were held, the president of the A. B. class was to act as presiding officer. President Seerley’s plan was adopted and has been highly successful, since the business has been more easily taken care of and a greater class spirit has been created. 24 A LICK PADGHAM Auburn, la.

A few there were who did remark That fToggle’s tail was quite a pest, And thought ’twould be a jolly lark To cut it off like all the rest. So one dark night—alas, alack! Snip! Snap! And Mr. Froggie’s tail Fell from his unsuspecting back; But froggie did not quake nor quail. Said he, “Now do you think I’m dead? Well, let me tell you I am not; Besides my tail I have a head Which isn’t dead by a long shot.” Dixie Wilson, ’10. 69 M. rn. BCmEE CAA M£i.j 1913 Hurd Stone Shambaugh Dick C. Chassell L.

Reference Assistant, 1912. 82 Since May, 1911, the library has been housed in the new building, where it occu- pies the entire first floor and two large rooms on the ground floor. The reading room is 169x35 feet; it is well lighted and has a seating capacity of 208; about 40,000 volumes may be shelved in the stacks. The library is open every daylexcept Sunday, and its use is steadily increasing. The average circulation is 840 books a day—a book a minute for 14 hours. During the year from Jan. 1, 1912, to Jan. 1, 1913, 3,100 books and 665 pamphlets were cata- loged and shelved. A much needed addition to the resources of the library was made when a room especially for the use of the children in the kindergarten, primary grades and training school was opened in December, 1912. In a large room on the ground floor is shelved the collection of children’s books circulated by the library, and also a display collection of the volumes on the list recommended for purchase by district libraries. These books may be freely consulted by anyone, but were presented by the publishers on condition that they are not taken from the room. In this way students have access to a representative collection of books on all departments of children’s reading. The room in is charge of an attendant, who is ready to assist readers. Once a week, an hour is set apart when stories are told by different members of the kinder- garten training class for the younger children. 83 Interior of Library Reading Room HISTORY, GOVERNMENT AND ECONOMICS Peterson Rice Riggs GOVERNMENT McKitrick Charles H.

On the evening of September nine- teenth, in the room of the late Professor Parish, a meet- ing was held to effect an organization among the allied branches of the department of Political Science. The first officers of the society were Professor Parish, in the capac- ity of President, and Miss Rice, Secretary. In the two years following the organization of the club, meetings were held at regular intervals. During this period a library and conference room was established, and regular research work, pertaining especially to the state of Iowa, was undertaken. At the beginning of the present school year the club was reorganized with the purpose in mind of bringing the instructors and students of the department more closely together, and of familiarizing them along lines of special interest in connection with their work. It has a member- ship of about sixty people, and meetings are held once a month. The present officers are: 86 President Secretary Treasurer Thomas McDonald Bert Cleveland Genevieve Knight oc History, Economics and Politics Club COMMERCIAL DEPARTMENT Harry C.

DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCIAL EDUCATION Until the last year the state made no effort to prepare teachers for the depart- ments of business training in the fifty-five Iowa high schools offering this work. The boards looking for good teachers were, in the majority of cases, forced to choose be- tween two classes of applicants. One was the college graduate who had no sympathy for commercial work, because he could teach almost any other subject of the high school curriculum better than the technical commercial subjects. The other was the technically trained person who had specialized early, and consequently possessed little or no college preparation. This lack also caused him to have little knowledge of the methods of presenting other high school studies, and prevented him from trying to co-ordinate and correlate them with business subjects. The Department of Commercial Education undertakes to give, not only a techni- cal training as thorough and complete as can be secured in the public or private schools; but also, while it is being pursued, an opportunity to carry in addition many excellent courses in the following departments of the institution: English, History, Government, Economics, Geography, Psychology, and Education. This very fortunate combination of studies is supplemented by actual teaching experience in the training school of twelve grades, under the supervision of critic teachers, and offers a course not found in many schools in this part of the country. Iowa is not the only state which feels the lack of well-prepared teachers for this kind of work, but it extends over the middle west generally. The department is showing a healthy growth as this information is becoming better known throughout the state. 89 ENGLISH DEPARTMENT Samuel A. Lynch B. L., 1892; B. P., 1892, Missouri; M.

Gregg Secretary-Treasurer...................Mrs. Blanche Walters THE English Club, which has been in existence now for two years, is an organization upon which the college may congratulate itself. A school for teachers should feel a far-reaching responsibility in the matter of insisting upon scholarly preparation for the teaching of English,—the temptation being especially strong for everyone to feel that because he has spoken and read English all his life he is thereby ready to teach that subject without further preparation. This is not a theoretical danger, but one of the actual obstacles that constantly meet the attempt to hold up scholarly ideals in the teaching of this branch. Hence a club that consists of faculty members and only such students as have won distinction for themselves by special work in the line of English furnishes a needed stimulus for raising the standard of the department. Such studies as that presented by Professor Lynch on the subject of Milton’s Treatment of Satan in Paradise Lost stimulate interest in England’s great poet, who spoke with sublime idealism to an audience “fit but few.” Programs such as that held at the rooms of Miss Hallingby in the fall term, where the hostess presented an original short story and Mr. Patty and Miss Dunkelberg gave most entertaining read- ings, show the possibility of artistic results in the actual class-work of the school. A combination of the study and social sides of the club life has appeared in such meetings as that at the home of Miss Carpenter, where the hostess introduced her guests, by means of lantern views, to a series of scenes connected with the making of English Literature in its native home,—in England, Scotland, and Wales. 92 The English Club FOREIGN LANGUAGES • v Charlotte M.

Liebe Tante Frieda: Du hast mir ein (oder vieleicht ist es einen. Diese Kasuses sind mit mir Casus belli) so langen und liebenswiirdigen Brief geschrieben, dass ich fiihle mich impelled down zu sitzen und jetzt schon direkt zu antworten. Vielen Dank fiir die zwei Dollars die du mir enclosed hast. Ich werde ein grosses Bankett fiir mein Schillerverein anstiften, or words to the effect. Zwci Dollars!! Sechzig Schillers!!! Stimmt nicht. Vielleieht kannst du, meine liebe Tante, noch ein Paar Dollars schicken, so dass wir mindestens genug Erdniisse kaufen konnen, Damit! Beilaufig gesagt, das Schillerverein ist mein Lieblings Society. Jede Woche versammeln wir in dem grossen Schillervereinsammlungszimmer, wo wir uns mit guten und niitzlichen deutschen liter- arischen Programs unterhalten—u. s. w.—unter die vier Augen von unserem Herrn Professor Vater Knoepfler und FrSulein Lorenz, und vielleieht noch mehr von unseren Ehrenmitgliedern. Wir haben eine perfectly fein Vorsitzerin, Frl. Anna Doffing und sie sitzt vor perfectly grand; while beside her sitzt Frl. May Reiss, Protokollfiihrerin und Frl, Vie Ufford, Schatzmeisterin. Das geld wollen wir spSter spend for picnics. Dann und wrann leiden wir some spezial fein entertainments, ein zum Beispiel, ein Abend, Fraulein Carpenter, von Berlin Universitat, hat uns vorgesprochen und sehr schone Bilder gezeigt. Auch einmal sind wir mit genauer Not davon gekommen einen Abend voll Berlinische Bilder gesehen haben miissen. Gliicklicherweise ist der Verbrecher mit Influenza genommen gewesen und der Evil Day aufgeschoben, Gott sei Dank; denn mein Freund, Charlie, mochte kommen und mir mit meinen Algebra helfen. Oh Dear! Jetzt muss ich mein Lectionen studieren. Der Himmel won’t be voll Bass Geigen wenn ich my lessons nicht wissen, sondern das Schwert dieses old Griech- ischen Bub Damokles wird over my Kopf hangen. Oh! I must tell you what Professor Doctor Merchant said to------and here ended the page. What Dr. Merchant said and to whom he said it remains shrouded in mystery unless this young lady chooses to reveal it. 95 96 77� Sr iil t-rvwoin Soru lf PHYSICS AND CHEMISTRY Perky A. Bond B.

THE SCIENCE CLUB OF IOWA STATE TEACHERS COLLEGE THE Science Club has for its purpose, the promotion of an interest in and a knowledge of the laboratory sciences, through the pre- sentation of original or special work done by its members, and through the discussion of scientific matters of current interest. The meetings have been of notable interest and in many respects the fourth year in the history of the club has been its best. Over one hundred mem- bers have been added to the roll. The presidents for the year have been S. F. Hersey, Alison Aitchison, and R. W. Getchell. Three student programs have been presented in a creditable man- ner, also the following special lectures: Atmospheric Electrical Phenomena . . . Prof. W. H.

THE MATHEMATICS CLUB THE Mathematics Club is an organization which supplements the work of the Department of Mathematics by offering to faculty and students an opportunity to meet and discuss ques- tions relating to the history, pedagogy, and theory of mathematics. This club was formed in December, 1909. There are two classes of members. The active membership is from the faculty, alumni, and students who have had at least one course in college mathematics. The officers are chosen from this group. The associate membership is made up of students who have had at least a year of secondary mathematics. It is customary to have two meetings each term. In addition to programs offered by faculty and students, speakers from abroad have been secured at various times to assist in the work of the club. For the winter term of 1912-13 the following topics have been presented: February 13, “The Influence of Religions in the Develop- ment of Mathematics,” Miss Edna Allen, Instructor in Mathematics. February 26, “How the Blind Are Trained in Mathematics,” Mr. Frank Cole, Graduate of Vinton School for the Blind; “Experiences of a High School Teacher of Mathematics,” Mrs. Lura Kingman, Instructor in Cedar Falls High School. The present officers are: Professor D. S. Wright, President; Miss Gertrude D’Autremont, Secretary; Miss Edna Allen and Miss Emma Lambert, faculty members, and Miss Verna Bernard, student member of the Program Committee. 101 102 _______—-----------—------- ___________________________— 103 Charles H.

In attempting to write an adequate account of the life, work, and activities of the organization known as the Art League, we are con- strained to do as the little girl when told to say her prayers. She knelt reverently, and bowing her head, recited the alphabet, added “amen,” and remarked that she had given God all the letters and now he could arrange them to suit himself. But should we take this means of getting out of the difficulty, how would those who have never attended our meetings know in what order to arrange the letters, to get an adequate idea of the Art League? At present the League is composed of over thirty members, including the advisory committee. The presi- dent, secretary, and treasurer are elected from the student members. Any student interested in art is considered eligible to membership. The social life of the League is not neglected, but in all social meetings the art element is a strong factor. The League has held during the year 1912-13 thirty-three meetings, three of these being social. The work during the fall term was under the direction of Miss Patt. The sketching of buildings on the campus gave a practical understanding of the rules of perspective and application of principles involved in architecture. The work of the winter consisted entirely of posed models, careful attention being given to the placing and making of good compositions. Charcoal, watercolor, and pencil sketches were made at the suggestion of Miss Schuneman, who had the work in charge. During the spring term, Miss Iverson superintended the landscape work. We will not take time to expatiate on all the phases of the work. It is sufficient to say that the Art League was organized in 1896, and has since passed through many vicissitudes and experiences, but its tendency has always been upward, and beneficial to all its members and to the college. It has adequately met the needs for which it was organized,—to create a love for the understanding of art. Yell—A-r-t, Art! A-r-t, Art! Art who? Art what? Art League!!

The keyboard is three manual and is movable, necessitating electric action for every part of the instrument. The design and arrangement of the keyboard is thoroughly modern, the speaking legisters being con- trolled by solid ivory knobs. The couplers are operated by tilting tablets placed over the swell-organ keyboard. This arrangement places the entire organ under the immediate control of the organist. The specifications are complete in every detail, giving an unusual number of orchestral effects. These are reinforced to a high degree by open diapasons of laiger caliber, and the entire instrument is so thor- oughly balanced that when the full organ is played no single stop pre- dominates. In the construction of the organ no single detail has been overlooked, while in voicing, the tone properties have been developed to the highest degree. There are 643 pipes of wood and metal and reeds from 2 to 16 feet in length which mark the great organ, while the swell has 1,144 pipes of wood, metal and reeds from 2 to 16 feet in length, and 633 pipes of metal and reeds are in the choir organ, and 376 pipes and note in the pedal organ, making a total of 2,787 separate pipes and notes. It requires an artist to play an instrument of such magnitude, and the effect upon the listener is entrancing. The program given by Dr. Andrews was classical in its arrangement and yet well adapted to the audience.

New Student.........................John E. Partington The past Association year has been most gratifying in many respects. The work of the various departments has not.been without results, and the Association stands higher in power than it has ever before stood. The devotional meetings have been led by men and women who by their own lives and examples have shown us the real, true Christian life, and have helped us to live it. The Bickham meetings in the winter term with the atmosphere of true Christian life will be remembered by all who attended the meetings and heard the powerful speakers. The number of members in the Association stands higher than it has ever been before in the Association’s history, but yet we have room to make it still larger. The Bible Study department makes a favorable report by the number of men enrolled in classes. Our social events have not been omitted, and each man, new and old, can look back to his first evening with the boys where he listened to addresses of welcome, words of encouragement, and the like, with pleasure, for he made new friendships there that have stayed with and will stay with him long after he leaves his Alma Mater. There were our “stunt” nights, “feeds,” watermelon day at the golf links, all for a social time, yet with the moral and spiritual side always present. The department of finance is as it has been in the past few years, and we look upon it as one of the successes of the past year. Even the Association has a financial prob- lem to handle well. A new department was added at the beginning of the year. It was a new feature here, so had to grow the same as any other department. This is the department of employment. Through it, boys who desired work had work secured for them, and employers who had work to do were able to get the help they wanted, thus resulting in satisfaction on both sides. At the beginning of the year some of the boys were afraid that the committeeman was getting “a little on the side” for his services, but later they found that all he got “on the side” was plenty of extra work. Ask Ole or Rex. Though the Association prospects have been good the past year, we look forward to even better prospects for each coming year, and we hope and pray that the Associa- tion will grow even laiger, guided by that “greater power” and working through the members and the men who are selected each year to guide the Association “ship.” G. L. G. 142 143 Y. M. C. A. Cabinet Gospel Team—Winter During the Christmas vacation the Y. M- C. A. sent out a team of seven men to carry on a Gospel campaign. The team began work December 26, at Allison, Iowa, and held meetings every evening until January 2. As a result of these meetings, twenty-six took the stand for the better life. The team was comprised of Messrs. Grubb, Hanson, Justesen, Miller, Haight, Erickson, and Gunnerson. This work has been one of the strong departments of the Association, and since its inauguration in 1909 much success has been reached each year by the teams sent out. The plan is to send a team out at the Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Spring vacations. A team consisting of Justensen. Partington, Coolidge, Haight, and Lyon held meetings at Walker, Iowa, during the Spring vacation. 144 At the Lakes Gospel Team—Spring 143 THE STUDENT VOLUNTEER BAND Delia Brown Clara Chassell Rex Haight Laura Chassell Mable Hale Hilma Johnson Axel Justesen Anna Miller Edith Sweet Edna Battin Helen Christianson Emma Leonard Veda Stryker Nell McIntosh motto “The Evangelization of the World in This Generation.” 146 ‘' 77 MOTTO Let your light no shine before men that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which art in Heaven. The organized work of the Young Woman’s Christian Association is conducted by the following committees: 1. Membership, whose aim is to enroll every student as a member of the Associa- tion, and to sustain and promote interest in every phase of Association work. 2. Devotional, whose aim is to deepen the spiritual life of the students by means of mid-week prayer meetings, joint meetings with the Y. M. C. A. on Sunday evenings, and a daily prayer circle. 3. Bible Study, whose aim is to organize and conduct classes for systematic study of the Bible, and to encourage regular private devotions. 4. Missionary, whose aim is to bring the college girls to realize their individual responsibility in the evangelization of the world. It endeavors to accomplish this pur- pose by means of mission study classes, reading circles, and public meetings devoted to the subject of missions. 5. Finance, whose aim is to collect and spend sums necessary for the conduct of the Association, and to show the girls that since they have received so bountifully, they should be willing to give freely. 6. Intercollegiate, whose aim is to keep our Association in touch with the National Committee, the State Committee, and to keep the students of our school in touch with their own Y. W. C. A. 7. Practical Service, whose aim is to make the Association room as neat and attractive as possible, and to prepare the chapel for public services; also, to send flowers to sick students, the money being provided by the Danskin-Shaw Flower Fund.

CABINET 1912-13 The year 1912-13 has been one of special interest in Association work, the member ship having grown to over five hundred girls. This has been made possible by the work of our secretary, Miss Constant, united with the efforts of every member of the Y. W. C. A. During the spring term, about eight of the Cabinet girls enjoyed the meetings of the Cabinet Council at Albert Ixja, where they received a great deal of benefit. The Geneva Conference, during the summer, was attended by four I. S. T. C. girls and the secretary, who found the place so beautiful and the meetings so helpful tha: they decided to go again at the first opportunity. A large delegation went from here to the Cedar Rapids Convention, during the fall term; and all came back inspired to help in the work of their own Y. W. C. A. Soon after this Conference, we observed the Week of Prayer here at I. S. T. C.. as did many of the other colleges. We had special meetings every noon, in addition to the Morning Watch and the Sunday and Wednesday meetings. On Thursday evening of the week we gave a pageant showing the need of evangelization in the foreign lands. There were four scenes, representing China, South America, India, and Japan. The pageant was well attended, and much credit is due our missionary chairman, as well as the girls who so willingly took part. One of the most helpful features of the whole year's work was the week of special meetings, held during the month of January. We had with us the two secretaries Miss Morris and Miss Marshall, who spoke to us in a way that their thoughts shall stay with us and make us better for having heard them. 148 149 NEWMAN CATHOLIC ASSOCIATION In a flourishing college it would be expected that all its departments would develop, but in the Newman Association there has been more than ordinary growth. The year 1912-13 has far surpassed, in attendance and work accomplished, any previous year in its history. The program at the weekly meeting is usually conducted by two or three members who discuss topics on church history or current happenings bearing on religion. Als during the year several prominent speakers addressed the meetings, among whom wen� Father Donlon, of Cedar Falls; Professor Samson; Father Rohlman, of Waterloo; Miss McGovern; Father Wolfe, of Dubuque; and President Seerley. Last fall, application was made by the local organization for admission into the Catholic Students’ Association of America. This favor was granted. Misses Alico Craney and Norene Burns were sent as representatives to the annual session of this association, which was held at Ames, Iowa. Proceeding on the assumption that “In unity there is strength,” our little organi- zation has held several social functions, some of its own and some with the Cedar Falls Parish. Thus a friendly acquaintanceship exists between all Catholic students. Wt are also pleased to say that nothing but the best of feeling seems to exist between th three Christian organizations. There prevails none of that prejudice sometimes foumi in communities where opportunities are not offered, as here, for close mingling of peoph of different religious creeds. We hope and trust that the Christian influences in the Iowa State Teachers College may grow still stronger; for upon such foundations, lasting institutions are built. 150 151 Newman Catholic Association Cabinet COLLEGE EYE STAFF, ’12-’13 Len Toomey Julia Hurd Howard Huston Editor-bi-Chief Local and Alumni Editor Business Manager The College Eye Staff of 1912-13 has given to the students and the alumni the paper they wanted. It has proven a success in every way. The Staff for 1913-14 consists of P. J. Hanson, W. W. Patty, and Hazel Butterfield. We are sure there can be no doubt that the 1913-14 College Eye will be the best in the history of the College. If you have any editorials worthy of note, just send them to P. J., and if you know of any alumni getting married, let Hazel know; but if you hear of any one wanting a subscription, wire W. W. Patty at once. 152 DEPARTMENT OF TRAINING IN TEACHING Mattie Louise Hatcher Ph. B., Ed. B., 1909, Chicago. Supervisor of Primary Training, 1909. Florence E.

Now we shall see how much harder we can work during the Spring Term.

Probably the basement is, after all, the most fitting place for our department, as we deal with the foundation in the child’s education. If the foundation is not firm, the building is unsafe; if the beginnings in education are poorly looked after, the whole after-career is weakened, so we consider our part in the educational field very important. We believe that all work and no play makes Jill a dull girl, so occasionally we take an evening off and Juniors, Seniors, Critics and Supervisor enjoy a good frolic in the gymnasium. We are sure that we can get as much healthy fun to the square inch as any other set in the school, for we are all “good mixers.” The only regret we have is that these good times do not come often enough and our most common form of greet- ing is, “Have you your card catalogue finished?” or, “When are the note books due?” However, we are here for work first and play second, so we do not, as a rule, complain of papers to be written or hard lessons to be learned. Since the spring of 1912, there have been two Kindergartens down town, and it has been the delight and occasionally the sorrow of Senior girls that they had to do part of their practice teaching there. It has been splendid experience to be in a “real” school, but the worst part was in catching a car back to the hill for an 11:15 class. If we missed one car and had to sprint six blocks over to Main Street, we invariably found that the cars were off the track and—those 11:15 classes!!!! After one such adventure, three girls decided to spend their nickel for candy and walk home, since they could not make the class anyway. The nickels were spent and the candy iust pur- chased when along came a car—such luck! But the glorious walks or rides in the fresh morning air made up for all the minor troubles. During the winter term, the Seniors took up the study of Montessori’s method, discovering how it was like and unlike the Kindergarten. Her materials were used occasionally in work with the children. The girls have found many good points in the method, but have not decided to forsake absolutely the doctrines of Froebel. Some people think that the Kindergarten is a sort of joke and all play. We grant that most of the things done are play for the children, but for the teacher—no. She must have an aim and a purpose back of all the play games. If any one thinks it is such an easy matter to take charge of twenty-five or thirty children, we challenge them to try. The child has many things to learn and if he can get started by acquir- ing the foundation through educative play, it surely surpasses the old “hickory stick method.” So here’s to Miss Ward, so genial, To Miss Whitten, so gentle and true; To Edith, so lively and jolly, Here’s love to them all, true blue. So here’s to Junior and Senior, The good times we cherish at heart; Prolong the time, keep off the day, The day when we all must part. And whether it’s Normal or College, Our love will never grow cold; With joy and with pride, we’ll recall the glad days, And honor the Purple and Gold. 160 161 SENIOR KINDERGARTEN First Row: Resor, Lucas, Balkema, Forgey, Blayney, VanDellen.

There was a young lady named Walker, Who was such a terrible talker, There’s not a man or girl on the hill That has the power to balk her. F ranees had electricity in her toe which turned out to be a thumb tack in her shoe. Did she get the point? Why is Edith Cross? Question: Did Miss Ward meet the traveling man at the hotel at 4:30 P. M.? Question: “Who will we get for the tin horn sport?” Margaret J.: “Gee! get Nell Lucas; she will be a peach.” Question: “Have you your sense training paper finished?” Jeannette B.: “Yes; I find I can accomplish much when I cut two classes as I did yesterday.” If Helen Gates’ clock was fast, she might get to school on time. Question: “Why did Carol call criticisms ‘sitticrisms?’” Answer: “Because she could never stand to hear them.” Question: “Does Janet W. read her Bible?” Answer: “Yes, because she insisted on calling Nigel ‘Elijah.’ ” Car-chaser Walker of Waterloo finds that it does not pay to visit Cedar Falls on Saturday. In the disguise of a suffragette, she “bumped the bumps” and measured her length on the main street, February eighth, and could not come to school Febru- ary tenth. Ella VanDellen: “I have ten dollars’ -worth of dimes.” Carol F.: “Why, that is a thousand dimes. (She needs a course in simple arith- metic.) Gladys R. made a dreadful mistake in filling out her application blank. It said: “What can you not teach creditably?” Gladys wrote: “Kindergarten.” We wonder why, then, she is taking the course. Miss Ward said, “They say only the fools in America go abroad, but that is not so.” She went abroad last spring, you see. 162 163 Junior Kindergarten Girls, 1918 % FAVORITES OF THE JUNIOR KINDERGARTEN GIRLS “Everybody two-step.” —Mary Murphy. “They always, always pick on me.” —Helen Bowen. “If you talk in your sleep, don’t mention my name.” —Erden Ferguson. “I’m lonely since you went away.” —Mary Berry. “The only pal I ever had came from ’Frisco town.” —Margaret Stonebraker. “O, Mr. Dreamman, please let me dream some more.” —Edna Sadler. “Let’s go, let’s go, let’s go and see that show.” —Ethel Trimble. “Sunshine Sue.” —Marguerite Griffin. “Take me back to the Garden of Love.” —Inez Wilson. “Goodbye everybody, I get married today.” —Bess Hewitt. “Just a-wearyin’ for you. —Harriett Henry. “All that you do is talk, talk talk!” —Helen Firebaugh. “Sing, Smile, Slumber.” —Marjorie Luse. “Keep away from the man with the automobile.” —Bess Litchfield. “Don’t forget the number, don’t forget the name.” —Kathryn Frazey. 164 OME3TIC SCIENCE 165 INSTRUCTORS Miss Freer Miss Heinz Miss Townsend Miss Sheets CLASS SONG (To the tune of “You Can’t Expect Kisses From Me.”) It takes the Home Economics girls to make the good doughnuts, And the H.

The work is arranged in a graded or progressive course, from the first lessons in reading and elocution to the higher classes of dramatic and extemporaneous speaking and the study of great orations. This gradual development of the powers of the student gives him a knowledge of himself which is valuable to him as a teacher. The reading and elocution classes are always crowded and the interest in the repertoire and dramatic work is unusual. The Mid-Winter and Commencement plays are anticipated with keen interest. Two contests are given yearly by the department: the dramatic declamatory contest, and the oratorical declamatory contest. Prizes are offered to the best in these contests, and great interest is manifested in them by the students. “IN THE PALACE OF THE KING” Commencement Play, 1912 CAST King Philip II. of Spain.........

C. has adopted as its motto: “A sound mind in a sound body, coupled with a right spirit.” These three ideals are our ideals for every student that comes here, and insofar as they will allow us, we stand ready to serve them in any way possible. The two hours a week that are required of each student is but a small part of our field, although it is a very important phase of our work. It serves to make us acquainted with the students, and to enable us to show them how we may be of service to them outside of the regular classes. The intimacy cf the physical examination, and the fellowship on the gymnasium floor, or athletic field, creates a tie between teachers and students that is manifest in the many demands coming to us from both students and alumni to help them in their various activities. This, in addition to the various kinds of instruction given in hygiene and physical training, which aim to educate the physical powers in habits of wholesome and hygienic living. To work, because of the joy of accomplishing; to play, for the joy of playing; to live a life of clean and wholesome habits because it’s right, and because it better fits us for service to mankind, this is to be physically educated. And to this end, the Department of Physical Education stands ready to devote its entire energy for each and every student who is willing to accept their service and profit thereby. Special Teachers’ Course. This course was established about ten years ago to meet the ever increasing demand for teachers of physical training in public schools, normal schools, colleges, Y. M. C. A s, Y. W. C. A.'s, etc. The aim has been quality, rather than quantity, and the 191 striet entrance requirements have limited the size of the student body to small numbers, but from the first graduating class in 1906, an average of four graduates per year haw gone out into the field and made good. Some have gone into the public school systems of Iowa, some are in the Chicago schools, and others are now the heads of physical training departments in such institutions as the State Normal Schools of Kirksville an ! Cape Girardeau, Mo., Winona, Minn., and Superior, Wis., while still others have taken college positions. One of the features of this course during the past two years has been the Field Days. Once a week the students meet as a Department and enjoy a period of social pleasure as well as instruction. In the fall, excursions are made up the Cedar River, and in addition to the instruction in boating and canoeing, a picnic supper and general good time add to the value of these trips. In the winter, the meetings are held in the gymnasium, where advanced instruction along special lines, such as club-swinging', fencing, etc., and in games, is given. In the spring, outdoor tramps and hikes and golf and more river trips is the usual program. Among some of the outside activities which have been carried on by the Department and which furnish opportunity for our students to add to their normal practice, are: Boys' Work in the Cedar Falls Churches. For the past two years, the First Presbyterian Church has conducted for its boys classes in gymnasium work and has drawn on the Department for two students to lead classes weekly. Sunday School Athletic League. This movement was started last year by the formation of baseball teams in four of the downtown churches, with one of our students as toach of each team. A spring schedule was played off, which stimulated the demand for a continuance of the work, and it is planned to further perfect this organization this spring and to keep it active throughout the whole year. Business Men’s Class. In response to a request from several of the Cedar Falls Commercial Club mem- bers, arrangements were made whereby a weekly class for the business men of Cedar Falls has been conducted throughout the winter by one of the instructors. Friendlj competition, in the various games adaptable to men of mature years, have been held with the Waterloo Business Men, and these evenings of recreation have meant much to the participants in the way of physical competition and social intercourse. Public Schools of Cedar Falls. The work of Physical Training has been introduced into the public schools of Cedai Falls on a larger scale than ever before, and now practically every student has the benefit of two hours’ work each week. Our students, under the supervision of the Assist- ant Director, have charge of this work which includes both grade and high school work. Officials. The Department has conducted a bureau for officials this year, which has supplied the majority of high schools and colleges in this section with officials for football and basketball. Instruction and practice under the supervision of the Department ha- developed in our students an efficiency that has created a large demand for their service- in the surrounding towns. 192 FOOTBALL TRACK W.

Anderson “Back on Iowa’s Schedule” was the watchword handed down to Captain Anderson by the 1911 team. This recog- nition was earned by faithful, conscien- tious, hard work and handed down as a legacy to the 1912 warriors. For the first time in eight or nine years we had developed a team worthy of recognition from the biggest and the best in Iowa. The following shows the schedule that greeted the Coach and Captain at the beginning of the season, and the results after the 1912 “gang” had waded through it: Sept. 28 I. S. T. C..39 E.

U. ... 2 Totals 85 83 Several features of the schedule are deserving of special mention, as follows: Iowa Game: Simonton’s recovery of fumble and run for touchdown. The fast work of the backfield men, Sheffield, Mitchell, and Richards, and Anderson's impregnable end. Grinnell Game: “Speedy” Richards come-back in the last half and Clapper’s gritty work at quarter. Coe Game: The wonderful team work produced by the sight of a larger and stronger paddle. Ellsworth Game: “Speedy’s” won- derful drop-kick in the last two minutes of play that nearly caused a riot. Upper Iowa Game: The determined and settled way in which the scoring machine went at it to finish the season with more points won than lost. Captain Patty, 1913 Altogether, it was a grand schedule, the team went through it gloriously, the student spirit was the best ever, and last, but not least, the finances were in such condi- tion that the purchase of sweaters for the team was fully warranted. For the first time in many years, the Athletic Board were able to present the letters to the team in a dignified and honorable manner, the sweaters being worthy of the emblem. The team may justly be proud of its record, and in its turn can hand the watchword that begins this article down to the 1913 warriors. 194 195 The Team Coach Pasini—“The Man with the Paddle.” FOOTBALL SCHEDULE, 1913 The following schedule will greet Captain-elect Patty in September when, unde: the efficient coaching of H. F. Pasini, the “Man with the Paddle,” he heads what is ex- pected to be the Teachers’ greatest football team: Sept.27 Waterloo at Cedar Falls. Nov. 1 Clark at Cedar Falls. Oct. 4 Iowa at Iowa City. Nov. 7 Upper Iowa at Cedar Falls. Oct. 18 St. Joseph at Dubuque. Nov. 15 Drake at Des Moines. Oct. 25 Grinnell at Cedar Falls. With most of this year’s team back, and a goodly number of the “Reserves’’ t whom is due a large share of the credit for the showing made last year, we shall have the best football year in our history. Our 1912 team won the Hawkcye Conference title and was conceded the Minor College Championship of Iowa. What will the 1913 “gang’’ bring to us? 196 197 The “Team” that beat Iowa BASKETBALL Coach .............H, F. Pasini Captain............Howard Huston The development of the 1913 basketball team began last fall when the “Powers that be” agreed that the ideal for this season should be a “fast passing team” regardless of results, believing that if a team of five men could be developed that was accurate in passing and handling the ball, that the scoring would take care of itself. At least, while we were passing the ball among our- selves, our opponents were not scoring. How well this has worked out is best shown by the schedule with its results as given below. With three of last year’s team back, to which was added one of the 1911 team, the Coach set to work in earnest, and it soon began to appear that he had gotten together just about the right combination to dem- onstrate what real basketball was like. To this combination, he added enough of his own indom- itable fighting spirit so that they soon became known as “Pasini’s Fighting Five,” a title which they made famous in the two closing games with Cornell and Iowa. The work of Captain Huston and Clapper as forwards, the defensive work of Anderson at center, and the all-around work of Ludeman and Dickinson at guards will not soon be forotten at Cedar Falls. We might sum them up personally as follows: Captafn Huston is one of the most conscien- tious and faithful workers the college ever had. Developed the dribbling game to a point where he was a hard man to stop, and his success at “one-handed shots” is uncanny. Clapper was the “Bouncer” of the squad. In spite of his size he was one of the best battlers on the squad, and his long suit consisted in hitting the floor and bouncing up like a rubber ball. He was always in the scrimmage. Anderson was a hard man to get by. Several tried to push by him rudely, but “Tommy” never would stand for that. In the Iowa game, he was right at home and those who fouled four times and retired “had nothing on him.” Captain Huston, 19IS Ludeman proved toward the end of the season that he was there when it came to free throws. Nine in the Iowa game put it on ice. His lightning dribble and score in the Cornell game was the fastest piece of basketball work our fans had ever seen. Dickinson, last but not least, in fact, the star of the squad, if there was any, as is evidenced by the fact that he was the unanimous choice for Captain in 1914. Quiet, and unassuming, yet faithful and absolutely dependable, his work in the Iowa game was phenomenal. His goal, made while being thrown to the floor, was a brilliant and heady play. To him is the honor, well-earned, of leading next year’s team to even a greater series of victories. The results: Jan. 11 At Iowa City................Iowa, 24; I. S. T.

Seymour Captain................................M. W. Sheffield The Gymnastic Team came back into its own this year by defeating the Waterloo Y M. C. A. Team as a starter, and winding up its season by defeating Iowa for the State Championship. This makes “Three State Championships’' in the last four years in this department. The Fifth Annual State Meet occurred March 8th, in conjunction with the Men's Exhibition of Physical Education. Iowa was the only contender for the title this year, hut they arrived on the scene with the best balanced team that had ever been here be- fore. The competition was the keenest that we’ve ever seen, and when the battle was over, the title and banner were ours again, but by only a margin of 1.9 points! The work was of much higher grade than usual and some very pretty combinations were given. Captain Sheffield was easily the star of the meet, winning his third gold medal for individual honors. In eight performances he averaged 9.2 points out of a possible 10. Our team was better balanced than ever before, and was capable of doing more than the rules of the meet demanded. That 1.9 points represents the hopes and ambitions of five of the most faithful and conscientious workers imaginable, and their victory and honor are well deserved. With at least four of this five back for next year, our title ought to be safe for a time at least. 200 Following is the result of the season’s work: DUAL MEET, FEBRUARY 26, 1913 I. S. T. C. VS.

Pasini Captain ..............................H. G. Ludeman THE Baseball Team of 1912 went through the hardest battles of the past eight or nine years. The material on hand seemed to be plentiful and a hard schedule of fourteen games was provided, including some of the best teams in the state. Three games were called off on account of rain, but eleven games were played, ami considering the grade of baseball played, our record of five victories and six defeat need not be discouraging. The record, as shown by the summary, follows: April 26 April 27 April 30 May 3 May 4 May 6 May 9 May 10 May 11 May 18 May 21 May 24 May 28 June 1 At Dubuque............St. Joe, 3 At Fayette.............V.

The schedule is somewhat less pretentious, but it includes teams that art- or shoiild be in our own class, and some of the best teams in the state at that. Our pitching staff will include most of the old standbys, Huston and Richards being out for the team. With Cotton behind the bat, these men can “let out” all they have. The old infield will be practically intact, and with plenty of good stickers and fielders, look out for a “Fighting Nine.” April 25 St. Joe at Dubuque. April 26 U. I. U. at Fayette.

Schluter The Track Team of 1912 was handicapped by a woeful lack of numbers, but the nine men who were available and eligible brought the Teachers College into greater prom: nence by their star performances than any track team of recent years. Though losing out in the State Meet, the men won the admiration of the hundreds of college men who witnessed the competition. Their gameness and remarkable showing against over- whelming odds focused the attention and drew the plaudits of the crowd. The postpone ment of the Dual Meet with Highland Park in mid-season because of rain, lost us one and probably two first places at the State Meet. The schedule and results were as follows: April 20 April 27 May 4 May 11 May 17 May 25 At home, Individual Home Meet. At home, Home Meet. One record broken. At Mt. Vernon. Cornell, 87; I. S. T. C., 40. At home, Highland Park Dual. Rain. State Meet at Grinnell. Teachers tied for first in pole vault, won second in mile run, and third in one-half mile run. At Iowa City. Iowa Freshmen, 60; I. S. T. C., 57. One record broken. Captain Schluter’s work was the most prominent feature of the season. His per- formance of 4:31 in the mile run, and 2:03 in the half mile, was the culmination of a season’s hard training. His improvement was consistent through all the season, and had he been able to work out in the Highland Park- Dual, he would have surely won first place in the State Meet in these events. His time the following week broke the State Meet’s record by four seconds in the mile run. Next to Schluter, the work of Begaman in the running broad jump was most notable Clearing 21 feet 7 inches, he passed Reddy Hamilton’s old mark of 1905 by several inches. Fearing, a new man, also proved to be a star in all-around work and was chosen Captain for 1913. His work in the pole vault at the State Meet deserves commendation, for he was suffer- ing from a severely bruised heel which handi- capped him noticeably. Frye’s work with the weights, Cleveland's in the high jump, and Baker’s in the dashe proved them to be of the material of which prize-winners are made. Frisby’s faithful and conscientious work had its culmination in his fine performance at the Iowa Freshman Dual. The prospects for 1913 are brighter in some ways than they were in 1912. Frye and Bega- man are gone, but Fyler and Fearing ought to fill their places, while Sheffield and Hemphill should add to Baker’s strength in the sprints. Schluter is on hand looking for more records. Cleveland is ready for the hurdles and high jump, while a wealth of material appears to be lying dormant among the new men. If this material develops into as fast a crowd as they promise, a good track team should result. The following schedule will give the Coach an opportunity to bring out their abilities: May 3 Home Meet. May 9 Highland Park Dual at home. May 17 State Meet at Grinnell. May 24 State Meet at Des Moines. May 31 Hawkeye Conference Meet at Cedar Falls. 206 Captain Fearing, 1913 207 Girls' Class in Basketball 208 fSHhcrt I hi ncinu 209 FUSSERS’ FRAT LADIES’ AID CHAPTER OF I. S. T. C.

Said he, “My son, you’d better write, Or you’ll not stir from the house tonight.” To write a ballad, I do hate, And I think you’ll agree it’s an awful fate, So I think I’ll end my misery now, And tell about our old black cow. She broke her neck one summer’s day When from the barn she ran away. That cow was born, she lived, she died, And now we treasure her old black hide. 240 C6SU 241 OSSOLI TO our friends in the field, we extend greetings.

PRESIDENTS Fall Term Dorothy Waters Mary Helmick Winter Term Mary Turner Mrs. Eldrid VICE-PRESIDENTS Fall Term, Mary Helmick Alma McCormick Winter Term Agnes Sawyer CRITICS Orpha Alford Freeda Herald 242 INITIATION Once upon a day quite dreary, As I studied, weak and weary, Over many a tiresome lesson, Conned them o’er and o’er— While I studied, nearly napping, Suddenly a thought came tapping, Like some one gently rapping, Rapping at a fastened door. “Tiresome thought,” I muttered, “What’s it saying o’er and o’er?” “Initiation,” nothing more. Ah, distinctly I remember ’Twas the second of November, And the sunshine wrought Strange shadows on the floor. Eagerly I wished ’twas morrow;— Vainly I had sought to borrow From my friends a paltry dollar, I had asked them o’er and o’er. If that fine was only paid, Then o’er my lessons I could pore— Study, study, nothing more. But the whisp’rings gently, softly, Sad, persisted more and more; Told me, told me—fifteen to five, And not one car before. So to calm the throbbings of My heart, I stood there still repeating, “ ’Tis just for fun, ’tis just for fun Old members new ones thus are treating. ’Twill not be long, we must be strong, Though our hearts are wildly beating; Only once, then nevermore.” Presently my soul grew stronger; Hesitating then no longer, “Quick,” said I, “for my coat And sash and ribbons, I implore.” For my courage was but fainting, When that thought came gently rapping, Came so faintly tapping, tapping, Though I’d heard it once before; Still I did not think to heed it, Till it repeated o’er and o’er “Initiation,” nothing more. Then into the street, hearts sinking, Long we stood there wondering, thinking, Fearing, doing deeds no mortal Ever dared to do before; But the train gave us no token, Whether head or limbs would soon be broken, And the only word then spoken Was the question, “Ossoli?” And we answered, and an echo Murmured back, “Yes, Ossoli,”— Not just yet, but soon to be. Then into the park all turning, All our souls within us burning, For our dear home friends still yearning. Soon we heard the gentle murm’rings Of old members: then they tied Those towels till we could see no more. “Let us see!” the new ones shouted, “And this mystery explore. Let us see, for oh! this darkness Frightens us still more and more.” No,—we walked and nothing more. 244 Onward, now,” I heard them mutter, And with many a quake and flutter Out we stepped, a blinded crew bed by just a chosen few. Not the slightest halting made we; Not a minute stopped or stayed we; Hut. with steps not firm nor steady, And for bumps or hollows ready, Down the rugged path we marched And stumbled to the river’s roar. Marched and stumbled, nothing more. Much we marveled, oft we asked If they’d tell us plainly; Hut their answers little meaning— Little meaning to us bore. And we couldn’t help agreeing That any living human being That was blessed with seeing Was surely blessed o’er and o’er. To see if path or road or railroad Led us to the river’s shore. This we asked and nothing more. Then they left us standing lonely By the river, asking only For a faithful friend to tell us If the trip was almost o’er. Not a friendly word was uttered And our hearts with terror fluttered. Still on farther,” then they muttered, •'Over roads so deeply guttered; All to-morrow will be o’er. Then this path we’ll let you see, For then you’ll be an Ossoli.” •'Onward, then,” the stillness broken By command so shrilly spoken. Lead them on the railroad bridge Through one great danger more; Lead them on still faster, For we fear some dire disaster.” Then onward fast and onward faster, Till the last one’s safely o’er. Then we followed o’er the paving To the hall above the store— At last our walk was o’er. Then, old members now beguiling All our sad hearts into smiling, Straightway took our blinds all off And we could see once more. Then, upon the good chairs sinking, We betook ourselves to thinking Fancy after fancy, thinking Too of what we’d heard before— Of initiation terrors that New members had passed through of yore, Thinking, fearing, more and more. Thus we waited for a token, When a door swung slowly open And heads with fierce and fiery eyes Burned into our bosom’s core. Then with one accord all rising, Hastened to the open door. Underneath the table that The dull light gloated o’er, Crawled the newest members Quick across the dusty floor, Eating, then, and nothing more. After this, the air grew denser, Pumpkin pie, a spicy censer Was passed by friends whose footfalls Tinkled on the wooden floor. Eat,” they cried the food thus sent thee! Eat and rest on bended knee. Quaff, oh, quaff this fragrant beverage And forget the trials to be; Eat and drink without repining”— (And the words quite startled me) Think, almost an Ossoli.” Loudly then the music sounded And new members quickly rounded, Quickly told to kneel right down Beside the open door. Told to listen to the music And when they had counted four, Down with heads all bending, Noses touch the dusty floor. Bending, bending, none defending, Not a friend his aid was lending; Bumping, bumping, nothing more. Next deep into darkness peering, Long we stood there wondering, fearing Bluebeard’s wives with long locks streaming Blood was dripping—dripping on the floor. And the .silence was unbroken, Only trembling gave a token How this grim and ghastly terror Smote upon our hearts so sore. Reeling, tottering from the darkened door, Gasping, quivering, we could bear no more. Silence then, and nothing more. But at ten it all was ended; Hurts and troubles all were mended; Past was all the riding, riding With such dreadful thumps and bumps; Gone was all the sticky stuff And our feet back in our pumps. Oyster soup was coming next And the terrors all were past; Friends with us were laughing, Friends with us were chaffing, Ossoli s at last! 245 Bessie V.

Fortsch The Aristotelian Society was founded in 1886. Its purpose is to further the devel- opment of the three sides of life, namely, the intellectual, the physical, and the social. The intellectual has not been neglected. Last year two men, Patty and Young, represented the Society in the Ames debate. This year we are represented on the Inter-collegiate Triangular by Fortsch. A silver medal debate was held to choose men for the Intersociety Triangular. Jacobsen, Peterson, Wilson, and Jorstad were chosen; Jacobsen receiving the silver medal. The “Old Regime” installed by President Troup was a decided success. It has awakened interest and animated every program. Neither has the physical side been forgotten. Last spring a survey of the base- ball diamond would have revealed Cotton, Ludeman, Richards, Higby, Finch, and Davis representing the Aristos. In football, the work of Anderson, Clapper, Ludeman, Patty, Richards, Wise, and Jorstad might well be envied. This winter, Anderson, Clapper, Ludeman, Wise, and Richards are the Aristos’ share of the “Varsity” basketball squad. While this has been going on, the social side has been exercised as well. Both Shakes and Aristos can testify to that. Not one Aristo, old or new, will forget the initiation up the river. Such experiences hold lasting memories. The seventy-five Shakes and Aristos who enjoyed the Christmas program and who so deftly stowed away apples, nuts, and candy are ready to give their testimony any time. The dinner given the Shakes and Aristos, February 15, 1913, by their “Honoraries,” was a treat not often enjoyed and one never to be forgotten. That it was thoroughly enjoyed goes without saying. Thus have the Aristos tried to accomplish their aims. But, although they are loyal to their society, and should be, the Aristos do not place “society” above all else. Their motto is, rather, “General welfare first and society afterwards.” That the Aristos are alive and growing is forcibly demonstrated by their membership for 1911, 1912, and 1913. The membership was fifteen, thirty, and forty-five, respectively. This ex- ceptional growth can only be explained by the fact that every member is a “booster” and a “hustler.” Let this be your motto when you come to I. S. T. C.: Visit the Aristos; be an Aristo; boost. 264 265 IX AKISTOTOWX If we only would think of the things we possess, We never would envy our neighbors, I guess. Such variety never was known since the days When Bacon produced his immortal essays. We’ve a nice little “Berg;” come and see it some day. Just ask some of us and we’ll show you the “Wey,” And what you will see will surprise you, I’m sure. In Aristotown we have wonders galore. “Drakes” and “Crows” are not birds of a feather, But here you will find them flocking together. A “Hunter” we have, but these birds do not fear; He’s hunting for different game, so I hear. The Shakes come to see us quite free from alarm, For we have a whole “Troup” to protect us from “Harm.” They come ’round to see us quite often, indeed, To inspect our supply of “Cotton” and “Reed.” There’s “Moorhead” “Akin” here than there ought to be, But that is because we’re so “Wise,” you see. Peters and Jacobs have we none But we do have “Peter’s” and “Jacobson.” And our “Patty” cake’s sweeter than honey, you know; Just ask our Shake sisters and they’ll tell you so. We have a “Miller” that’s right up to date, And a “Smith” to keep our “Axel” straight. And other things space won’t permit to jot down; Oh, you’ll “Strike” some strange things in Aristotown. H. Eugene Wilson. AN AHISTO MEDITATION In S. T. C. I do declare When e’er I gaze at Shake girls fair, With all my heart ’tis then I swear I’m glad that I’m an Aristo. With heart’s in tune to music’s beat These Shakes go marching down the street, ’Tis then with pride that I repeat I’m glad that I’m an Aristo. And now when Shakespearean band is still, And I am far from College Hill, ’Tis then regret my heart does fill; But yet—I’m glad I’m an Aristo. For days may go and time repeat, But still remains that memory sweet, I’m through. Once more I have the treat Of being an Aristo. 266 Arben L. Young Willard W.

Success consists in well-balanced achieve- ments, and to that ideal Orio has been steadfastly true. Her repre- sentatives have brought her glory in every field in which they have In the very first year of triangular debating, made possible by its organization, Orio took a lead which it has maintained through all the years. As no triangular debate was possible last year, the Orios chal- lenged the Philos to a dual debate, which resulted in a double victory for the Star and Crescent. In inter-collegiate debating, Orio has done more than her share in advancing the glory of I. S. T. C. She was ably represented in both the Momingside and Ames debates of last year, and when the men were chosen for the triangular with Coe and Morningside this year, three of the six were Orios, one of them winning first place among ten contestants. Orio had no representative in oratory this year, but the record of past years is such that every member is proud of it. So, too, in athletics the Star and Crescent are well known. No foot- ball, baseball, track, gymnastics or basketball would be complete without Orios. Last spring, Orio won the only inter-society event, the half mile relay race. But it is Cliorio spirit which puts Clio and Orio ahead of all others in the hearts of their members. Who can forget the many happy occa- sions in which Clios and Orios united to throw aside all care in merry- making; the many tricks played on new members in the initiation at San Souci, or the Christmas tree with its presents Tor everyone? These social meetings, as well as the joint literary programs, show the spirit of friendship and good-feeling existing between the two societies. The doors of Cliorio Hall swing ever outward with a hearty welcome, and the best wish we can give to new members is that you may derive the same benefit from Orio that we, who are leaving, have enjoyed. entered. 282 Condit Wilson Begeman Cleveland OKIOS, 5; PHILOS, 1.

This is shown by the record of the past year in everything in which the Philos entered; for they won every contest in which they took part. This shows the result of honest endeavor and a desire to keep the name of Philo true to its full signifi- cance. An analysis of the word shows the true characteristics of its members. The first letter stands for the word “pep,” the most valuable asset of a society; “h” stands for the word “hustle,” which is “pep” in action; “i” means “inter- est,” which is the life of a society; “1” stands for “labor,” without which the best is never attained; “o” means order in which the Philos won their contests,—oratory, athletics, and debating; and “s” signifies “success,” which crowns the efforts of all its members. Not only were the Philos winners of two of the three places in each oratorical contest held this year, but the fates decreed that a Philo could best represent our school at the inter-state oratorical contest. The Philos, also, amid the rousing cheers of their sister society and friends, won the inter-society basketball cham- pionship from the Aristos and Orios. Furthermore, three of the five men on our State Champion Gymnastic Team were Philos. Then, in debating, the Philos won over their opponents, the Aristos and Orios, and thus upheld their standard in this phase of college life. 298 Philo Double Quartette Spring Dual Team 301 Haight Grubb Hauser Schluter Winter Triangular Team Philo Quartette, “Alphium” 302 303 NORMAL CLUB OF THE STATE UNIVERSITY OF IOWA THE Normal Club of the State University was organ- ized February the eighth, Nineteen Hundred and Nine, for the purpose of “fostering a feeling of brotherhood” among the former students of the Iowa State Teachers College and of promoting “harmonious relations” between said college and the University.

To flunk or not to flunk; that’s the question; Whether ’tis nobler in the mind to suffer The stings and sorrows of 4’s and 0’s Or to take up a pony against the 4 of Prof.’s, And by persistent flunking end them? To flunk: to be conditioned: To pass not; and with the steed to say we gain The l’s and the other thousand unnatural grades That pets are heir to; ’tis a constipation Devoutly to be wished. To pass! A “1!” An “E!!!!” Only a dream: Aye, there’s the rub. For in that epistle to Pa what grades we place When we weekly shuffle off a copious abundance of heated atmosphere, Determines our check: There’s the respect That makes calamity of boarding house life; For who would bear the stings and bites of a cimex lectularius, The greasy bacon and the hair in the sorghum, The pangs of clammy biscuits, the fricassed flies on toast, The strenuosity of the coffee, and the burns That the patient trouser presser when busted takes, While he himself might all this trouble save With a bare two-bits? Instead, he lives in a barrel, To grunt and sweat under a celluloid collar, But the dread of a disastrous conflagration therefrom, And the speedy (?) approach of the C. F. Fire Department, And the eminently probable ensignment Of his whiskers, puzzles the will, And makes us rather bear the jolts and saddle sores Than live on eggs whose time we know not of. Thus Sallust doth make martrys of us all; And thus between the lines of Virgil’s iEneid Is scribbled o’er with the pale cast of tho’t.

A TYPICAL “STUDENT” EDITORIAL SLANG If there is any one thing more than another that we feel it's up to us to take a whack at, it is the abominable habit of using slang. It's a bloomin’ outrage that even the highest of our high-brows can’t tear off a few pages of the English language with- out running in a bunch of slang on us. It’s an awful punk habit. A few days ago some pin-headed two spot slung us a spiel that we couldn’t make head nor tail of. He got our deck so shuffled we didn't know what was trumps till finally we got a hen on that he was trying to string us. It was a rotten trick and we shall be leary of such gents in the future. We want you all to stow away under your lids that the gang what puts out this Annual, from the Main Squeezer on down to the devil, positively will not stand for any such slush. This is the straight goods, so just kindly can the cackle, chop the chatter, subside, fade away, kick the soft pedal, diminish the dipthongs, banish the bray, vamoose the vowels, hush, choke, gag the articulation, fan the phonetics, cork the consonents, or harness the chin, if you please!

Make the learner find them unassisted. Instructions carried out in Greek History class: “Willie, who dragged whom how many times around the walls of what?” A teacher in a lower grade was instructing her pupils in the use of a hyphen. Among the examples given by the children was the word bird-cage. “That’s right,” remarked the teacher. “Now, Paul, tell me why we put a hyphen in bird-cage.” “It’s for the bird to sit on,” was the startling rejoinder. THE DEAN’S ADVICE TO GIRLS (Hoy , Don’t Re ul Thi„!) My Dear Mrs. Walker: I am greatly troubled with freckles. Can you suggest a remedy? If so, I will be so grateful.—Brown Eyes. Answer: Pry them out gently with a toothpick. If that fails, try blasting. My Dear Mrs. Walker: What should I do if a young man kissed my cheek?— Troubled. Answer: You should be well enough acquainted with the Bible to recall the in- junction in Matt. 5:39—“Turn to him the other also.” My Dear Mrs. Walker: May I allow a man to flirt with me?—Hazel Flagler. Answer: Certainly you may, Hazel, and if he shows no inclination to begin it, you probably do not need to be told that it is up to you to give him a starter. Mrs. Walker: Should I wait for a young man to call before accepting an invita- tion to go out with him?—Vera Mutch. Answer: Don’t risk it, Vera. You might find out you didn’t like him, and then you wouldn’t get him to go. 336 JOHNSON WYTH CO., Inc.

BEGEM AN Lecturing with Great Fervor and Fluidity on the Physical and Pht logica I Significance of Darwinism” Let us take the sentence, “In the beginning Physics began.” You will see how fundamental ideas are expressed in a simple manner. The etymological history of the word “Physics,” in the philological significance of its evolution, has been gradually metamorphosed into its present confabulatory relationship (Goes to the board.) It is entirely a question of cosmogony. (Groans from back row.) That brings up an important question in pathological philosophy. We learn in elementary physics that there are final, immediate, and emotional value-attitudes. (Tilts back against the wall, and gazes vacantly off into space.) Classification of values conduces to dynamic realizing of purposive tendencies, and are psychically re- lated to the complex cross valuations in the consummation of the ego, de facto, and the hobbembobbemtouchem of the solar spectrum. (Profound snores from all parts of the room.) Now as I was saying: (Here! wake up, so we can go on with the lesson!) “Mamma,” asked little Tommy, “do fairy tales always begin with once on a time?” “No, dear; they sometimes begin with ‘My love, I have been detained at the office again tonight ” Chaunccy H.: “How’s the paper coming?” Mike: “Fine; we have a good local editor.” Chauncey H.: “Hope you don’t have as much trouble with your local editor as I did.” Mike Toomey, in making a speech in Philo Hall urging the support of the society for Bailey and Me. on the Old Gold, ended with “I think we will have no trouble if we can get Schluter to pull with the girls.” Pres. Erickson: “Brother Philos, this is something that we cannot over-emphasize.” SANTEE BROS. Leading dealers in Real Estate and Loans. Write or see us. SANTEE BROS.

Miss Martin (in Repertoire class) : “Why did you sing that poem?” Tom Me.: “Because it’s a song.” Miss M.: “That’s like the student who gave the Gettysburg piece with a trem- bling voice and when asked why he gave it that way, said, ‘because it was solemn He was asked why it was solemn and he said, ‘because it was given in a graveyard.’ ” Chemistry class waited for one-half hour for Mr. Bond to come. He came, apologized for having forgotten all about having class at that period, and asked why they waited after the ten minutes was up.

ERWIN EVANS Let Us do Your Business for You 343 DON’T USE BIG WORDS In promulgating esoteric cogitations or articulating superficial sentimentalities and philosophical or psychological observations, beware of platitudinous ponderosity. Let all your statements possess a clarified conciseness, a compacted comprehensible- ness, coalescent consistency, and a concentrated cogency. Eschew all conglomerations of flatulent garrulity, jejune babblement, and asinine affectations. In trying to impress upon others the great superiority of this year’s Annual, and why you should have one, it is not necessary to use jaw-breakers. Let your extemporaneous decanting and unpremeditated expatiations have intel- ligibility and vexatious vivacity, without shodomontade, thrasonical bombast, or spir- olic hyperbolies. Seduously avoid all polysyllabic frofundity, ositeeamis vacuity, ven- triloquial verbosity and vandiloquent vapidity; shun all double engenders, prurient, jocosity, and pestiferous profanity, either observant or apparent. In other words, talk plainly, naturally, sensibly, and truthfully; just say that the 1913 Old Gold is the best yet. And that settles it. 344 BANCROFT’S SPORTING GOODS STORE MUSIC UP-TO-DATE ATHLETIC GOODS BICYCLES TENNIS GOODS General Repair Shop MOTORCYCLES CUTLERY in Connection AND SUPPLIES Jfreo!) £ut jflotorra at ail ©imeo TYPEWRITERS SECOND HAND OR NEW MACHINES OF ANY MAKE The Most for Your Money H.

Some of these things are even used in the class room for topics to fill up the allotted time for a class recitation. HKAHI) IN GERMAN CLASS Herr Professor Knoepfler: “Die Kuh ist fiber die fence gejumped.” Koester: “Damit, shut er das Fenster.” Herr Professor Knoepfler: “Mr. Koester, that is the best translation you ever made.” A number of elegant houses near the Teachers College for sale at bargain counter prices. SANTEE BROS. Teacher: “Mary, do you know what spunk is?” Mary: “Why, when you spank me, then I’m spunk.” Love is such a funny thing, Acts just like a lizard, Curls its tail over its back, And creeps into your gizzard.

JUST LOOK AROUND A BIT The Big Ground Floor Studio CLAY 349 Mr. Barnes, before class: “In that way the lever may be raised up and down.” Student: “Not raised down, Mr. Barnes!” Mr. Dick: “We will all rise simultaneously, at once.” Student, who has been conducting an imaginary party through a mine: “We will go up out of the mine in the same way we went down, only in the contrary direction.” Miss Ward: “His father brings him to school, and as soon as he is settled, he takes out a comb and begins to brush his hair.” LIMERICKS There is a young man named Condit, Who, for fear he should wax despondent, Cracks jokes all the day, And by night, they say, Feeds on fudges and fondant. There is a young man named Fearing, Who, in courtship is quite endearing, But it makes him quite sore For he always wants Moore, E'en when the girl’s not within hearing. WHAT CAN SHE KNOW ABOUT ITf Prof. Barnes: “Some women are abominable to walk with.” Miss Thompson (very emphatically, in a stage whisper): “Well, some men are, too!” Impossible!!! “RED” MARTIN The poet hath said, “Faint heart never won fair lady.” If these words are true, “Red” M. will be hitched up to a modern Venus. “Red” is an ac- complished flirt and can hold his own with anyone. This shows his philan- thropic character more plainly than any description. His record was 38 trips from a car one evening. Can you beat it?

It looks better than any annual ever has before this. Everybody else is satisfied, why aren’t you? No, the faculty aren’t so handsome as usual this year. But then, this has been a hard year! Also, remem- ber that some of these cuts are new!!
