C Fuss ..... Hall LF Clemenson . . CF When Coach Miller gave the first call t r candidates for baseball, a likely 1 • .kini squad answered and practice started immediately. Coach Miller was blessed with as neat and efficient a battery as any College could wish. Henke, a big southpaw, and French, a man of experience as catcher. These two took active charge and the team soon rounded into playing shape. After a few weeks ' hard practice the season was opened at Fan Claire against the formidable N ' ormal which only the previous week had gained much notoriety by defeating Winona Normal in a no hit, no run game. Wil- Pag 66 1920 wwjBpp a I ANNUA m b liains took tin- mound for the Normals and licld Stout hitless until the seventh. In the meantime llenke was mowing down the opposing batsman with regularity. An error and a hit in the fourth enabled Ran Claire to put over two runs. In the last of the seventh Stout started a savage attack and evened the count. Han Claire was unable to put another man past first base in the next two innings while Stout managed to squeeze another run in the ninth taking the game : - i. It was a well played game and Stout showed good baseball judgment for their first game. Stout 1? ; Eau Claire 1. On .May 84th, Eau Claire came for a return game and Stout rooters were treated to more of a track meet than a baseball game. Stout jumped upon the redoubtable Mr. Williams in the first inning and drove him from the mound, lie was succeeded by Mc.Mahon whose stay was extremely brief. Ilenkc pounding out his tir t offering for a home run. ' Brodie then attempted to stop the slaughter but did no better and Coach Phillips waved him to the bench and gave William another try. In the meantime llenke seldom al- lowed the batters to get to first base, either striking them out or making them pop out to the infield. After a strenuous afternoon Stout, with the score 11 to l. called it an afternoon ' s work and called the game. Every one on the team fattened his batting average, even Sam IiaU clouting the pill for two bases. Stout 3; War Veterans 2, As part of the celebration of the home coming of Co. II. Stout agreed t play a picked team of the veterans who had just returned from service. These nun while not having played with each other to any extent were players well versed in the art, having had extensive training and experience in the various camps. This attraction drew the largest crowd that ever witnessed a base ball game in the home town and both teams put up a very interesting exhibition. At no time was there any great difference between the two and rooting wa spirited thruout. Sympathy was properly all with the returned soldiers and their every effort was roundly applauded. I lenke pitched the best game of the year and gave a fine exhibition of con- trol by allowing the bases to fill and then striking out the next three batter- in succession. Foss. Archie and Beck lund did nice work in cutting down vicious drives to the infield while Romberger t-  .k care of first base in tine shape. In the last three innings. Stout evened up the runs and llenke saved his own game by poling out a three base hit in the ninth which put over the win- ning run. Stout ended its 1. per cent season with regret, there being no further chance of securing games. Most of the schools were yet crippled from ef- fects ot the war and all schedules were more or less abbreviated. 19 2o P KC t Miller. Rider. QuistorfT. Kubiak, Hall. Slade, King, S..ur .

A. ' P. C. and at the mercy of the second lieu- tenants. With hut ten days iti which to whip the squad into shape before the initial tryout and practice game, CO VCII Mll-I-KK work was undertaken at once t ground the candidates in the funda- mentals. Progress was so satis- factory that at the end of the week, two teams were undertaking some signal practice and at the end of ten days some scrimmage had taken place. The first scheduled game was with the Alumni which boasted of some heavy, willing material. The Alumni soon showed that tbey were unable to stop the offend runs or smash off tackle and touchdowns were made against them. At crit- R l.fil HERRING ieal periods, Stout ' s line held and the ball was punted out of danger. Coach Miller at once realized from his team ' s performance that the [dunging style of play would have ANTHONY KLINK 1920 Pag 69 f) })l)W Xl!y ' Jll!!)K —T— -r— Z Tai ' l M; y M ' A.uu.ww l ,,m,i A HOWARD SPAIN to be abandoned for tin- rest f the season, the men not being heavy enough to bend a heavy line. 5t« outplayed and outmaneuvered the Alumni and won the game 39-0. Spain uncorked some dazzling twisting runs and his straight arm work made him a difficult man to tackle. Klink playing in a new position at fullback dented the line consistently and added his own length forward time after time. As time progressed and the per- sonnel of the team was more or less decided upon, it was at once seen that Stout was due for a hard season on account of lack of weight. The VICTOR VALASKE Rl ' SSI-.I.I. SI.ADK backfield averaged under 150 pounds and the line hut slightly more, or about 1 . ;. This necessitated a change in Strategy and from then on Coach Miller devoted his time to the polishing up of the Minnesota shift which should keep his opponents guessing until the instant the ball was snapped. ( rT tackle and end runs were revamped and the inter- ference work was smoothed out. In addition the aerial work received considerable attention and shifts and spread plays were incorporated in the signals. Page 70 19 2 -mi.

The first regular game of th son took place at Steven- Point against a team which lost but one game the entire season. This was a hard fought battle and the only one in which Stout was held scoreless. Towards the close of the game Stout ' s tackles broke thru and !. I.vked a pass which Maerzk KAkt. ARCHIE verted into a touchdown. This was disailowed by the referee who claimed that the ball had not left the passer ' s hand. Stevens Point ' s two touchdowns both came as the result of forward passe- and Stout was forced to take defeat 12-0. Coach Miller during the next week of practice still farther polished up his Minnesota shift until every play worked from this formation, The ■ram then went to Winona to meet the Pt. Mary ' s representatives which SAM HALL had not been scored on in the three previous games. The game - even proposition, neither side beinjj able to approach closer than twenty yards to their opponent ' s goal. With FRED HEXKE 192 Pate ft  ,.)im un u,w .i i . JOHN MAERZKE the last quarter in si ht and neither side as yet scoring, it was freely pre- dicted that the battle would end in a scoreless tie. A thirty yard pass. Spain t Archie soon dispelled this GEORGE DECKER illusion and on the next play. Stout plunged thru the line for the first touchdown. Goal was kicked bring- ing the score up to ?- ). n the kick off, St ' ut ludd for down and took the hall up field by a series of short off tackle plunges and end runs. A spread play netted fifteen yards and a pass Spain to Archie put the ball over for the second touchdown of the game. Goal was missed and the game ended 13-0 in favor of Stout. The only home game of the sea- son then took place against the husky River Falls team. As the maroon BENNIE DANBERG and white took the field a gasp of envy arose from the Stout rooters at the size and weight of the visit- conservative estimate placed the Stout opponents as averaging at least 30 pounds more per man. Stout elected to receive the kick off and Spain returned the ball twenty yards before being downed. Spain then called for a pass and shot tin- ball straight to Archie at end who started down the field for a touch- down, lie was forced out of bounds on the twenty yard line and Stout I ■«■■ .-.• 192 mmiammi h i ANNUAL lost the ball on the next play, aplunge thru tackle. River Falls then kicked out of danger and the game settled into a contest as to which team could withstand the most battering. The Stout line held well throwing the River Falls powerful hacks for a loss three times when the ball was on the Stout one foot line. A quick opening allowed the River Falls quarter to slip thru for the first touchdown, and goal was missed. ( n receiving the kickoff, Archie r;ui the ball hack ten yards and was ARCIIIK Si .IKS downed. Spain then called a spread play and passed the ball to Archie who raced -ixty yards for the firit and only touchdown of the game. Score — Stout : : River Falls fi. For the next thirty minutes neither side became dangerous and the final pe- riod starteil with Stout still in the lead. At this critical minute with victory in sight, Old Man Jinx got in his w rk.

Two more touchdowns were regis- tered against Stun and the game ended 20-1 in favor of the visitors. The game with St. Thomas Col- leg scheduled for the following Sat- urday was failed off owing t the crippled condition of the team. A two weeks ' layoff from active scrim- mage, during which time teamwork and -i nals were overhauled, put the team in a fair condition to meet the Kau Claire Normal at Eau Claire. This was one of the prettiest games of the season and also one of the hardest fought. Archie went out of the game with a twisted ankle and Captain-elect Klink was ban- ished from the game by the referee for talking fight. Neither team was able to make any constant ad- vances altho Stout actually gained more ground and made first down JOHN KUBIAK often. With Archie and Klink looking on from the side lines the team sealed down to a steady defensive game, punting out of dan- ger every time the ball came within their thirty-yard zone. An inter- cepted forward pass gave the ball to Eau Claire which was worked up to Stout ' s thirty-yard line. With time drawing to a close and darkness settling on the field, tain Williams stepped hack for an at- tempted drop kick. The pass from center to him was perfect and the ball rose and settled between the goal posts. It was a beautiful kick and won the game : - . This was one of the unfortunate breaks in the fame against which no team can guard. and Captain William was roundly applauded by the hundred Stout root- ers who had accompanied their team to the scene of defeat.

In the next game Stout really went out of her class when the formidable Marquette University squad was met. Marquette, which had beaten (he Notre Dame University quintet the week before, lost no time in taking the lead and was never headed. The University men passed with remarkable precision and failed in very few shots attempt- ed. Motit put up a rattling good game and forced the University to send in five new men before the game was over. Marquette 33. Stout 17. In the final game of the season. Stout played the return game with the St. Thomas team. The cadets had hung up a fine record and had won the State Championship of .Minnesota and were claimants to the Championship of the Dakotas by virtue of having defeated the University of that State. In addition they had beaten Marquette Univer- sity and were in fine condition for a great game. Stout started the final game of the season in a determined effort to give the champs a stiff argument and in tins they more than succeeded. The first half ended a tie 10—10 but the second half witnessed a gradual slowing up of Stout ' s offense and a resorting to the defense I he cadets were quick to take advantage oi this and dropped in three goals from the center of the floor turning the tide and winning by the score 27— B2. THE SEASON on as a whole was not as successful as one might have wished for and yet Stout must be given credit for being willing to take a chance with the best teams ob- tainable. Coach Miller did not believe in the safety first policv. but was willing to try conclusions with every team of ability which would schedule games. The month ' s layoff at the beginning of the season when the men should have been on the floor practicing was a serious handicap and this combined with the fact that the school can only hold its men for more than two years makes the turning out of a cham- pionship team problematical. There is no one who will not believe that with Captain Archie at the helm for two years more. Rider. Henke. Ktsc and Decker for three years more and VnLski, Mclby. Hall and Klink for another two seasons, that Stout would be represented by a quintet that would be a stiff contender for any team to handle.

KASKET HALE TOfRNAMKNT The Wisconsin State Championship Sectional Tournament was held under the direc- tion of Stout Institute March -i. 5 and Oth. Kight of the fastest high schools in the Northwest section were entered and some fast basket ball was witnessed. Hudson, New Richmond. River Falls. Clayton. Glenwood City. Elmwood, Ellsworth and Mcnomonie high school basket ball teams were represented. The huge Co. H Armory was leased and bleachers built to seat ever 1.000 people. As the day tournament to start approached, one of the worst snow storms in years took place and traffic on all railroads was completely blocked. This necessitated the postponement for one day until the teams could make connec- tion. D. C. Mitchell of the University and I r, Kinnebcrg of the same place acted as officials and handled the meet in a very satisfactory manner. a Everv facility of Stout was put at the disposal of the visitors and the men reported good ' time. Mcnomonie high school, winner of the meet, played good basket ball and on from New Richmond in a thrilling game by the margin oi one point in the last f seconds of play. Glenwood City took second. New Richmond third and Rtver Falls fourth. Gold silver and bronze medals were awarded the winners and the winning tea: presented with a handsome silver cup. The winner was also sent to Madison to com- pete for the State Championship with all expenses paid. In the final session of the tournament, the Armory was packed to a capacity.

Hague, as faculty advisor and Earl Comstock as Editor-in-Chief. Since that time it has been published and printed every Thursday by two staffs. The Editorial staff is elected from the student body of both departments, and the Mechanical staff is composed of the advanced Printing class. Each member of the Editorial staff serves continuously from the time of election until leaving school, and is promoted as higher vacancies occur : underclassmen are usually chosen as new members on the staff. The Stoutonia has for its purpose the publishing of all social affairs, current happenings, local buzz, and to also serve as an educational medium in all developments of Industrial and Household Arts. It has been loyally supported by the subscription- of alumni, faculty and students, and by the advertisements of local merchants. During its short time of publication it has procured a creditable outside circulation. Because of the loyal support of the school, the Stoutonia staff, besides being able to issue a weekly paper, has taken an active part in contrib- uting to the social affairs of the school. On January 23, it gave a dancing party at the Stout Gymnasium for the entire student body which was re- ported a success by all present. With the co-operation of Smith Bros, of the Orpheum theatre the Path 5 News film has been secured and presented each Tuesday at general assembly. This has not only added to the interest ot the assembly meetings, but has also proved profitable and educational. 192 Page Si A ' amt ufO.3 ncv The Stout Male Quartette was organized in the fall of 191f : the original members being Louis M.

The quartette appeared a number of times at assembly as well as at public gatherings. It is expected and Imped that this shall be a permanent organization. Page 4 192 O ' Connor. Koswrl], Schmidt.

During the year l! is-l! l! the clubs sang on numerous occasions, such as the dinner given for the return soldiers by the Women ' s Club, and at the baccalaureate service. Tiny completed the year with an operetta en- titled. The Japanese Girl, given during commencement week. The year 1919-1920 started very auspiciously with a successful picnic, and an enrollment of over sixty members. The club has furnished music for assembly several times and closed the first semester, busily engaged on plans and music for a concert to be given in the second semester. An increasing interest and enthusiasm has been manifested by the pres- ent membership and the spirit shown is excellent. 19 20 P.

Cabinet members were installed in office March V.. 1919 at a dinner given by the retiring Cabinet. The inspiration and en- couragement of these girls made the new members feel that they must do the very lust to make the year a successful one in Y work. Membership of almost a hundred per cent of Protestants reveals the strength of the association here at Stout. Much has been done among the students to raise standards and promote loyalty to cli o| and faculty. The following reports of committee work will give an idea of the extent of the V. W. C. A. work here at Stout. E. J. V Finance Committee Report : The work of the finance committee began in earnest right after the in- stallation of officers. The play, And His Name is Wobbles. came first and the amounts realized quite exceeded that of previous years. On April 12. l! lf . the Annual County Fair was held in the home eco- nomics building. Financially this was the m. st successful, due to the ear- nest work and co-operation of the other committees and the support of the Pa%f prt 1920 mmamM — — iiyifgz] whole school. Over $815.00 was cleared, which meant a larger delegation to the V. . C. A. conference at Lake Geneva in August. The rest of the money taken in by this committee goes into the general fund. To add to this, snap shots. I ' .rewstcr ' s chocolates and Y. W. C. calendar- were sold: the play. What Happened to rones, and the County Fair of 1920 will he held before this cabinet goes out of office. Social Committee Report: The social committee of the V. W. C. A. has charge of the social affairs that are connected with that organization. At the beginning of each school term one or more mixers. usually in the form of a picnic, are givi that all students may become acquainted with each other as soon as possible. We attempt each year to raise the standards of individuals and the school and provide material for the bulletin hoard. This year we -have tried especially to improve table talk, eliminate gossip, and to create a more fnendly feeling among the students. ir i E - C. ' 20. Membership Committee Report: The membership committee has. as its name suggests, the duty of ob- taining members to the V. W. C. A. This is the chief aim of the committee although it has other duties as well. The first meeting of the school year was a meeting ol welcome to all the new students and members of the faculty. The campaign proper for the new members who did not pledge at the first meeting. to,,k place after the welcome meeting, all the -irN of the school being invited personally into the Association with the result that near- ly one hundred per cent of the Protestant girls became members The rec- ognition, or candle light service was held in the Congregational church on the fourth Sunday of the school year. The membership committee also takes charge of sending notes or flowers to the sick, oi recording the activities of the V. W. C. A: and also of plan- ning together with the social committee the mixer for the new students. p , ,■ • n R - H. ' 20. Publicity Committee: Through the untiring efforts and able leadership of the chairman the past year has been a noteworthy one in the historv of the Y work for the publicity committee. In no previous year has the work risen to such a pinnacle t good quality. Briefly the work comprises posters for weekly association meetings tor the annual county fair, for amateur plays, and articles in The Associa- tion Monthly describing successful Y functions. This year a special effort has been made to arouse student to raise social mental, moral and physical habits by illustrative material and snappy bits of philosophy. On the Y bulletin board is placed literature on typical work throughout the country and other items of possible interest to the students. The work has been of no mediocre quality, but of such good quality as to cause favorable and creditable comment at the head office in Chicaeo. ' Social Service Committee Report: Much of the work of this committee is done outside of the campus and is exceedingly interesting. The following is a list of some of the things done durine the year: 1. Taking food to sick people. . ' . Sewing garments for poor children. 1920 Page m STOUT AliN1IAL ; Play What Happened to Joins.

The committee plans the meetings, sup- plies a leader, asks the people who have been appointed to take part in the program: in short looks after every detail of the weekly meetings. !• ' . S. ' 20. World Fellowship Committee Report: The duty of the World Fellowship Committee is to create a spirit of better fellowship in the school, by organizing classes along the line of world fellowship interests; by conducting a week of prayer for various nations; by raising money to help support our missionary. Miss Dunning in Japan: by bringing before the students entertainment-- in the form of stereopticon lectures; thru the regular Y. W. C. A. meetings and by co-operation with other commit tei s. Bible Study Committee Report: The members of the Bible Study committee in planning their work for the year decided t.i aim towards securing a better CO-Operation between the churches of the city and the Y. . C. A. The city churches urn- only too glad to do all in their power to help. With this aim in view Stout Bible Classes were organized in the Methodist and Congregational Sundav Schools under the auspices of the Y. V. C. A. The I ' .ible study committee ch little booklet. The Manhood of the Master. by Hr. Fosdick as the text for study. The class in the Congregational Church has been exceedingly for- tunate in securing a very able leader in the person of Miss Mathieson from the High School. The class in the Methodist Church has been somewhat less fortunate in that they have been unable to secure a permanent teacher until recently when Miss Hill from the Agricultural School had consented to teach it. Those who have attended testifv that the classes have been most val- uable. L. D. ' 20. Pag 9 19 20 mimmmvwiiimM liL ' i f. mmmnm — — — ■ U ' iiiii ' iukiu. AttNVAL Mr. F. L. Curran McMillan Mrs Martin ECrogstad Miss Phillips Mrs. Vincent Student Welfare Committee The purpose of this committee is t.. provide for the health and happiness of the stu- dents by engendering the spirit of social fellowship. In order to realize this result, a: least in part, a social center, or the Cl l Room was opened January 19, IU2Q. Here the students gather daily between the hours of four and half past five in the afternoon for a visit, for a social game, or for a sing with their fellow classmates. On Friday night the hours are from seven to ten; on Saturday afternoon from two to five; on Saturday evening from seven to ten; and on Sunday afternoon from two to six. This is a social center where the right democratic spirit is fostered for all. No danc- ing or smoking is allowed in the room at any time, and no card playing is permitted on Sundays. The supervision is centered in the various school organizations, each of which, to- gether with one faculty member, serves for the period of one week. Lunches may be planned and served by the organization in control. At the close of the week, a written report is submitted to the Chairman of the Welfare Committee. These occasions pre- sent many opportunities for good fellowship and the cultivation of the social graces. The school has made this whole project possible by renovating the walls and floors, furnishing pictures, tables, chairs and an electric plate. Then donations have come from individuals as well as from the Glee Club, the V. W. C. A., the Milling and Car- pentry Departments, the Stoutonia Staff and Lynwood Hall. The committee desires to make this Club Room a permanent socializing influence in the school life. With the enthusiasm and the hearty co-operation that has already been manifested, success is assured the Club Room. 19 2 Page 9S mmmmm — - annual Phi Sigma Beta C. W, I labile . Faculty Adviser P. L.

The Club ' s first appearance in public took [dace at a five-course dinner served at Menomonie ' s new cafe. Messrs. C. W. Hague. W. Patlow, and II. Kubanks were guests f honor. In April the Club made its bow to the whole school by giving a dancing party: the gymnasium was transformed into a veritable ball room by the at- tractive colors of purple and white. The programs used were of the same color scheme which gave the finishing touches to the occasion. Since organizing the Club has pledged the following members: W. i W. Patlow. II. Kubanks. 11. Danberg. , I. I.eander, and K. I.indbom. Van Ashman — Patience and perseverance overcome the greatest diffi- culties Luther Hail — The surest way to hit a woman ' s heart is to take aim kneeling. Axel Kise — Whatever is worth doing is worth doing well. Lawrence Kraft — The measure of a man ' s life is the well spending of it, not the length. Joseph Martin — The only reward of virtue is virtue: the only way to have a friend is to be one. Cecil Raymond — Difficulties are things that show what men are. Paul Roise — We always like those who admire us: we do not always like those whom we admire. Russell Slade — Let your countenance be pleasant, but in serious matters grave.

Some of these cabinets were made by juniors and seniors with credit allowed them for an advanced course, while the sopho- mores were granted advanced credits to apply toward junior-senior shop work. The cost of the phonograph, complete, to each student ranged from $50.00 to $65.00 for lumber, mechanism, hardware, and finishing materials, but by doing all of the wood- work here in the shops of The Stout Institute each student became the proud owner of a phonograph in a class with the $300 to $400 commercial machine. For practical thesis credit, three sophomore students are making one this year to be used in the student club rooms. Pagt !• .• 1920 f ' m W « vw i I DQ N E.

Delight, lor that was her name, was very sad. All the con- flation of her beloved friends, the big golden butterflies, could not bring- back the smiles to her face and the laughter to her voice. He had gone. 1 ler hero and knight, prince of the moon-beams, had forsaken her for the princess of roses. Three night- before while the queen of fairyland was giving a ball for her court and friends. Delight had wandered away from the pretty lights into a secluded spot. She heard voices. One she recognized. It was her i ' riuces voice. She kept on, thinking perhaps that he was talking to one of her friends. As she circled a beautiful heavy laden bush of roses, she saw the arms of the Princess of roses encircling her Knight. Delight suddenly vanished. All night she despaired, but no-one noticed her sad face. While Delight was brooding over her misfortune, she heard a faint scream. She listened carefully. Again she heard it. Summoning one of the golden butterflies, she climbed on his soft, downy back and sped away in the direction from which the scream came. Soon a small stream was reached. There in the middle of the stream was a tinv pink shell and in it stood the I ' riuces- of roses. A big fat toad was just readv to make a leap for the bark. Delight, with due haste, urged the butterfly ' to hurry on. They were there just in time. As the butterfly SWOOped down the toad, recognizing Delight, turned and leaped back to his muddy home. Of course the Princess was very grateful. She wished to make Delight one of her court, but Delight could not be coaxed. A few days later, the Prince, hearing of the incident, came to visit the Princess. She was in the rose garden, said the fairy attendant. As the Prince came up behind the :.o ve ' r he heard low whispered words of love. Surely it was not the Princess. Upon further investigation he was convinced that it was. The Prince, discovering that the Princess no longer cared for him, re- alized that he had never really loved her. but had truly loved his demure little fairy Delight. So back he went to find her. lie searched and searched in vain. The butterfly would not tell him where Delight had gone. Sick at heart, the Prince called on the strongest moon-beam warrior to litrht the way. After nights of searching and weary wandering he arrived at a hidden vale. He fol- lowed a small and narrow path which led to a bower of violets. Who should he see but his beloved Delight. After hearing the Prince ' s story and granting him pardon, the fairy con- sented to go with him. They traveled to the Prince ' s palace of moonbeams and were married with great pomp and splendor. R. S Page no t92 I. 7W 1M Mil aww « ■ Jocko Tells Tales For six years Barrington Arkwight had been sole possessor and boss of ;. huge Brazilian plantation, and the body of ignorant, superstitions blacks whom his reckless uncle had left him. Recently he had built himself an ideal bachelor ' s mansion, where he entertained his friends lavishly. Just now Richard Bartlett, an old college chum, was spending a few weeks with him. Barrington Arkwight seldom walked slowly, nor clasped his hands be- iiind him. and had never been known to hang his head, all of which he was doing .id this summer m rning. Arkwight was thinking deeply.- for over an hour before he had learned that Dicks wallet containing a magnificent fiery opal, the stone that the superstitious both fear and worship, had been stolen from his room. During the hour following the discovery of the loss Arkwight had called the force of the workers to the hall in the rear of the garden. He had ques- tioned each one and had received this answer from every negro. No, Mas- ter, I did not take the gem from your friend, and may the high and reverend Barokee (the God whom they worshipped) smite me dead if 1 lie to you. Good Master. What could Barrington do? Each had denied the accusation but still one of them was guilty. How could he find the gem for Dick? He had in- structed the negroes to return in two hours, meanwhile he must act quickly. At last I ' ve got it, he cried and ran quickly to a small shed near by. from which he led Jocko, the pel donkey, in whom the negroes had great trust. Jocko. he whispered, you ' ll have to help me find the thief, but don ' t get im- patient, and you shall have some fine grain for lunch. lie then led Jocko to the small cabin and tied him securely. Kext he placed a basin of water near the donkey and took a handful of powdery sub- stance and rubbed it into Jocko ' s tail. He then returned to the main hall and waited for the return of the men. Now my men, he began, as soon as the last negro had arrived. I have been in conference with the all-seeing barokee and he has shown me how to mark the man who has taken P.arilctt ' s st tie. I ' .ach man must pass into the next room, dip his hands into a basin of water, take hold of Jocko ' s tail and jerk it gently three times, asking if he is the guilty one. Jocko will kick the man who has the stone. Now go, one at a time. If you are innocent keep your hands uplifted and your eyes towards the ceiling while you re- turn. Soon every man returned. Arkwight was surprised to find no-one miss- ing. Meanwhile he looked at the figures before him and said loudly. Kogs, you have the opal, get it at once. Bartlett. who has just returned, couldn ' t help but show surprise. Kogs, who was standing near the door, dashed out and began digging frantically in the flower garden. Soon he came back and handed the wallet containing the opal to Bartlett. After the negroes were dismissed Bartlett cried. You ' re a wonder, old boy. but tell me how you did it? Oh. it was simple. Arkwight answered, you see the guilty negro would never touch Jocko ' s tail for fear of getting kicked. So all I used was a little strategy and a little indelible powder. Come Dick, be a sport and band Tocko this bag of oal L. W. ' 20. 19 20 Page i;i Lesson Plan i tetober I nteenth. Sophia Stout. Purposes to be realized. 1. To teach the different ways by which the interior of an egg may be dissociated from its shell. 2. To teach the necessity of such dissociation. 3. To incalculate right habits: a. Mental — Cheerfulness. b. Moral — Cleanliness. c. Physical — Strength and Endurance. Introduction. Now, dear children, we arc going to study about the oval or spheroidal reproductive bodv. produced by many birds and reptiles. The earliest recorded example of this species ■•: fruil is Humpty Dumpty. I ' m sure that you all know this story. However simple the culinary operation may appear, it will be found that there is always a right and wrong way of doing things. Indeed, some claim that ' there are many wrong ways and only one right way of performing the delicate operation of breaking an egg. We will ' endeavor to discover this morning the various ways ot ac- complishing this task. egg in forcible contact with a flat surface. ' . . Kgjis may be dissociated from container by making a small opening in either end of the shell and holding one of these holes to the Kps. exhaling with force, and driving the contents thru the other end. 1 . Eggs may be dissociated in a similar manner, inhaling contents. 11. An omelet cannot be made without severing the thin but rigid calcareous membrane. 12. The recipe to be used is: IT butter. 4 eggs (unbroken) IT oleo. Vfet salt, speck pepper. IT flour. 13. The omelet pan must be heat- ed over gas. then oleo added. 14. The four eggs must be laid in nan. and other ingredients added. ripe II. Things which must be known and done. It must be known that : 1. An c.! is an oval or sphen ' i l- al body produced by many birds and reptiles. 2. An egg consists of a thin but rigid calcareous shell, and a slimy substance which sur- rounds a yellow, g« cy ball called a yolk. :;. Kggs which are over should not be eaten. I. Eggs which are over ripe may be easily detected by the smell. . . F.ggs may be dissociated from the shell in many different way-. ft. Eggs may be dissociated from the shell accidentally. T.

I will now demonstrate to vmi another method of dis- sociating the contents of an egg from its container, name- ly, by a blow on the edge of some ' vessel. (Use a wash basin as apparatus.) 8. Another method of dissociat- ing eggs from containers is by bringing the side of the egg in forcible contact with a tlat surface. I want each of you to try this. 9. I will now show you still an- other method of obtaining in- Conclusion. terior of an egg. Demonstra- tion. 1U. The eggs may be withdrawn from their thin but rigid cal- careous membrane in a sim- ilar manner to the previous experiment but this time the contents are of course, in- haled and swallowed whole. N ' ow I would like each mem- ber of the class to try this ex- periment. 11. It is quite necessary to sever the thin but rigid calcareous membrane. In order to prove this, we will try to make an omelet without sev- ering the membrane. The class will work in groups of two. 12. You will notice the recipe on the board. Read it over, Jenny. 13. When the omelet pan is hot, add the oleo. and leave it over gas until it is melted. Do not scorch. 1 l. The eggs must be carefully added without severing shell : add other ingredients and leave on range for 4.1 minutes. 15. Now, you see children, that after 3-4 hour of patient work, you have not made an ome- let. Why? Yes, because the thin but rigid calcareous membrane had not been sev- ered. Now, what have we learned about this spheroidal reproductive body today? Ye have learned that the contents must be disso- ciated front the shell in order to make an omelet. We have learned that the contents may be dissociated by several different methods: (1) Accidentally. (2) Forcible blow on the side of the dish. (3) Forcible blow on flat surface. 192 Page lis FMI F l ANNUAL The Brunner Bunch lu ! a word before we go. For here is some news that you should know.

I walked down the valley lower, and lower: The sun shone down the bubbling stream. The valley appears as described in a dream. In a cool mossy place a violet stood. Drooping her head in a weary mood : I wanted to pick it, it was so fair. But then, to wither it was too rare. With its roots I dug it up and carried it home. And planted it there in a rich, black loam. 192 Page US pn fflEL l.JJJ-IIIJIIIIlJI JJ r JJJJtJFJJJ )J. .)HJ1l Life hath no charms for me, I cannot land a man : It ' s a hard place to bfc — Dam! Dam!

After the Ball She was a young girl, not very tall but very pretty. She was very slight and rather frail looking, which only added to her beauty. She had large blue eyes and light curly hair, which waved prettily over her dainty forehead. She had just returned from the ball. At a glance one could tell all had not gone well. She threw off her coat and flung herself into a comfortable chair by the fireplace. Oh, you have deceived me, she began. You have wounded my pride but you shall pay. I loved vou with the greatest devotion, but vou are small, SMALL! J t You made me the envy of all the girls. I admired your beauty and attrac- tiveness, but in your bigness I was deceived. Never again will I appear in public with you. XEYER ! They tricked me into believing you perfection itself, and fool that I was, I lielieved them. Not in one day can I forget the pain, the anguish you have caused me. But now I have found you out. and this torture must end. I cannot and will not endure it any longer. With this, she pulled off her tiny slipper and threw it into the fire. M. S. ' 21.

We propose to tell plainly and candidly of a few of the pleasures and successes that we have met since we have entered Stout. Because the advanced course has just been offered, our group is small, but assembled from all parts of the continent. Although we have been noted for our studiousness, we are by no means devoid of a bright and fun-loving nature. We have indulged in pleasures which have helped in making us acquainted, and in strengthening our friend- ships, hi the fall we held our first class picnic. W ' e reached our destina- tion. Point Comfort, after a successful had been made for the infants who had wandered up the river. We enjoyed our first class affair — an event still fresh in our minds, and which will be remembered long after its writeups in our diaries have faded away. Another event in which the Junior-Senior Class was interested, was the Hallowe ' en dance given by them to the students and faculty. Judging from the comments overheard in corridor and class rooms, dormitory and library, it was an unusually pleasant affair and the class was honored with much credit for being such royal entertainers. The 20 ' s also took the initiative in supporting the athletic association, which has shown itself worthy of that support. Throughout the year a part of our time has been devoted to taking care of the Freshies and Sophomores, a part to class affairs, and the rest to reg- ular school work. The ' 20 ' s. although belonging to the aristocracy of brains, possess per- sons of athletic prowess in basket ball, foot ball and gym. The class has contributed much to all college organizations, its members being active in Y. W. C. A. work, athletic council, student welfare committee. Inkers ' or- ganizations, glee club, camp fire. Philo and Stoutonia staff. Loyalty to the class, the institution, and the faculty has been the strong characteristic of every member of our class. We face the future unafraid, for we believe that each one has in him the qualities which make for a suc- cessful career. We shall look back on our days at Stout with mingled joy and sadness. Our college days have been the happiest days of our lives, but we cannot suppress our feeling of sadness as we think of parting with the friends we have made here. E. T. W.

We elected new officers Mrs Uuncan as our president, but unfortunately for us, she staved with us onlv one semester. Again we took up our work, finding with the new vear new responsibilities and new fields of work. During our second year, the class of ' 20. due to its majority in numbers and enthusiastic member-. led in most of the school activities. The incentive winch led to the putting out of the Annual was due to our class. At the time of publication it will be impossible to record further events ior this year, but we hope that this record is not taken bv the reader as a boast but rather as it is meant to be taken, merely to aid us in remembering our life nere at Mill I . I lie years are apt to crowd our memories, causing us to torget what at the time seemed disappointing and discouraging, leaving only a very pleasant recollection of our years spent here. Our work will open new fields of aspiration and enable us to take our place in world where we will discover we are just beginning our course in the school of life. hatever of good we do there we owe. in part to the iarsighted training we have received here. F. II. D. ?n. 19 20 mmmmn mhual wmmmMMM L Md Freshman Class In September we came, the largest class of Freshmen that Stout has ever known. Our faltering steps, our vain resolutions to stand firm, our home- sickness, we shared them all. There were fearful stories told to us by the haughty Freshmen of but a year ago, but we were released from the demons of Fear and 1 )istrust. when a kind teacher advised us consolingly that these were but fictitious tales promulgated by the Sophomores, with the purpose of creating in our minds a greater appreciation of those individuals, who, at that time, already had our supreme respect. The first week of STOl ' T was distinguished by a party which was given f r the entire school. The hall, which was the scene of all the gayety, was beautifully decorated. Dancing was the chief entertainment of the evening. It was at this event that the boys discovered their enormous importance. It was very undiplomatic to walk in the wake of one of those desirable crea- tures, for the girls went over the top in true Yankee spirit, bringing their captors triumphantly to the room of refreshments with alarming frequency. At a meeting of the Freshmen class, George Decker was elected Presi- dent, with Nell Godsey for Vice President. Miss Godsey. however, because .- ■■: ' her health, withdrew from scho 1 shi rtly after, and her successor. Hannah Johnson, was chosen. Miss Allis Wells is Secretary and Mr. Spain Treas- urer of the Class. The Freshmen Class of 1919-1920 was characterized by its co-operative spirit and team work as it were. Mercenary, as well as all other issues, were met with encouraging response. Brown corduroy trousers were chosen by the Freshmen men as a dis- tinguishing mark. A picnic was planned to take place at Point Comfort, but the weather prevented, and we spent a delightful afternoon in the gymnasium. On Ar- mistice Day some of us felt sufficiently strong to stand alone, and proceeded in an enthusiastic manner to celebrate that day of such great significance to all of us by breaking study hours, hearts, and the stillness and monotony. Rut a few minutes were given us; for we were herded back to our respective dormitories where we learned through long weeks of confinement that the government of our school must be respected as the government of our coun- try which made Armistice Day possible. During the first days of December, several cases of scarlet fever broke out among our fellow members and with the exception of the girls who were at Lynwood, we were granted four weeks ' vacation — part of which was made up at intervals on Saturdays (hiring the second semester. At the close of our Freshmen year, what does Stout stand for? T ir means Stout in courage. Stout in honor and Stout in our ideals, which we have raised high as the tallest peak of our own Alma Mater.

Why met they here to work and toil At hems and scams and cooking oil? Why gave they freedom for cloistered years With days for study and nights for tears? Why came strong men to learn the art ( )f building and joining and taking apart? What recompense for hours thus spent. Not counting the hoard and rooming rent? Listen, my friend, and you ' ll rind out. That there is a spirit that lives at Stout, That keeps the courage and purpose high. That makes new friends as days go by — The spirit that speaks from work well done P.v Seniors, who finished what Freshies begun. That. then, is the reason that the Freshies are here. The reason they suffered in silence and fear. The spirit that called them, told them of need Of skilled workers to teach and also to feed. It promised them wages and work for life. Whether bachelor maid, divorcee or wife. This spirit gives them courage — turns tears to a smile. For a Senior from Stout must be a Freshie worth while. M. F. ■«!.

Say, Ves, I hope you didn ' t forget those strings this afternoon! You know the company absolutely refuses to obey commands unless we play in the ' G ' chord—. Say people you should have seen our company last n:. marched out in battle formation! There seemed to be something wrong with the first squad. ' What company? ' Why iir company of cockroaches — all over the draft age, too. They come out ever night as soon as Ves and 1 begin to play our mandolins. As I was going to say, last night then disorder in the ranks, and the officer in charge had quite a time enforcing commands. I could see no reason for the disorder, and it was almost lime for ' taps ' when we remembered that we wen playing Vagtime, 1 and you know, that company refuses to drill when a ' ragtime ' piece is played. Why, they just go crazy! Vbu should see them fall and tumble all over each oilier in wildest con- fusion. Too much for their nerves. Tratmurci ' — and there is perfect order. It ' s funny, too, how they make such good soldiers. Now the other night was the tirst time the lirsi louie ' courtmartialed a man. and that was because he aooeared at inspection out of uni- form, and with his shoes unpolished. Hut he was with a sentence of three weeks K. V. duty. Funny! Hut cockroaches don ' t seem to mind that punishment, — much. There ' s one little fellow who pets mixed up in drills. IK- never gets ' About I Face ' correctly, and alwavs stumbles at ' Squads, right! — and he never holds the pivot. If i: wasn ' t tor his being ' right in other orders, I ' d think he had suffered sun- stroke. .V it i-. I think these particular orders have had associations that cause a sort of brain storm. Worse than shell shock, you know. : first we hail only a company of infantry. but to my surprise, the other night, when wc started to play — out from under the dresser came a full transportation outfit with seven trucks and five mules. Sure, I ' ll tell you aliout this company. It took only a second look at these mules to see that a squad of our cockroaches had captured five wild bed ticks and trained them to draw their wagons— and you have to give it to them, for that transportation ' corps handles all the supplies our company and they cover many kilometers erv night , Maybe u won ' t believe this, hut the other night, at the order to ' break ranks ' all ran over and climbed into my .-hoe. When I went over to look into it, there was a ring, and one of the best boxing show- going on that I have ever The first sergeant was fighting the cor- poral—and it was some light! The corporal won, and now there is hound to he trouble; there ' s sure to be hard feelings between them, but it can ' t be helped, for the Major promoted the boxing and should have -ecu thai th ' non-coms should OOl have opposed each other. I couldn ' t help wondering ii my -hoe was used as a fighting pit every night after 10:30. 192 Page 1ST IIJinillU.IIJJJIIIMJMIiJ.

That ' s right! 1 forgot to till you that this company of ours blows ' taps ' at 7 : . and, believe me, the) all turn in and ' pipe down, ' too. Once in a while a mule breaks loose in the night and grazes at my shoulder, but not often, for the stable hands are quite efficient I only wish that you people could conic up and see them drill some night, but it would be of no use to try, for the company is under sealed or- ders and must keep their movements secret They would take no chance drilling before strangers. Another thing about the company. Von know they use the rug in from of our dresser for parade grounds, and it ' s almost worn out. Their march- ing, and the transportation corps have worn a path all around the rug. as they are on the go all the time. That company refuses to drill with- out their ' chow ' so it keeps the transportation corps busy hauling food. Tonight, we expect a treat, as the colonel is to hol | inspection, and it will be some grand review. For the past three weeks they have been clearing up their barracks. You might think ' barracks ' was an empty candy box under our dresser, but a glance inside would convince you of your error. Well. I wish you could come up and see them drill — bin orders are orders. Now, if Ves and 1 can be excused, we will leave, for we must have our mandolins ready for the big event tonight. EXAMS. IVas ten o ' clock on Thursday night.

CONTENTS In other words, are you an expert sheet metal man, knowing just how to handle every operation with maximum effi- ciency? If not, have you ever thought of the satisfaction it must be to be a know-how man — to say nothing of the increased earning power of such a man. There is no reason why you should not be such a man. It simply takes a little energy — a little determination to study, rather than wait for experience to teach you. Start right now by getting a copy of The Sheet Metal Workers ' Manual By L. Broemel. It is a hand-book for the sheet metal worker, apprentice, student and teacher. It is primarily intended to show you how to get the pattern for an object and then how to use the tools and machines to make that object with maximum effi- ciency. In it you will find answers to a lot of questions you may be just a lit- tle too proud to ask someone about. Note its contents. Note the chapter on welding and other operations experience is pretty slow in teaching. Note also that you take no chance in ordering a copy for examination. Get a copy for yourself. Look it over and you will want everyone interested in sheet metal work as an industrial vocation for school shops to have a copy. Get it now for your term study. 1 — Sheet Metal Industry. 2— Sheet Metal Working Machinery. 3— Sheet Metal Working Tcols. 4— Sheet Metal Working School Shop Equipment. 5— Course of Elementary and Ad- vanced Sheet Metal Work and Pattern Drafting. 6 — Outline Course of Sheet Metal Work — Emergency War Train- ing. 7— Oxy-acetylene Welding and Cut- ting. 8— Electric Welding. 9 — Hand Forging and Welding. 10 — Outline Course of Hand Forgring and Welding— Emergency War Training. 11 — Brazing. 12 — Pipe Bending. 13 — Properties of Metals and their Alloys. 14 — Practican Geometry and Mensura- tion. 15— Useful Tables. 550 Pages — Over 400 Illustrations.

A School with a Printing Plant is a school at its best; a twelve cylinder motor; a high power, modern engine of education; it never fails to deliver and it de- livers the best scholarship, the best, most practical scholars, the best citizens. A School without a Printing Plant is handicapped; its students miss the teaching of knowledge that type pro- duces, its teachers miss the inspiration that applied type knowledge gives their scholars; the community misses the well-rounded citizenship to which type work wonderfully contributes. There are thousands of printing offices already in grade and high schools ; many more thousands are needed, and will be installed. Let us help you get in early this powerful educational helper.
