The Open ook None can sing of life that it has not sung, Or of death that it has not told; For the very things that are new to us To the open book are old. But the glory of it and of all its joy Exists in this fact. For look! Whereas all things in it to it are old Age comes not to the open book. I sing of a thing that lives with the world,— Lives as long and is just as new. For the next race of men will learn those things That the last race taught to you. But what would be old to you and the book, And the world, to them is new. And they love the world, and the sun, and the moon, For they're new,—and the book is, too. So pray let me sing of the trusted tome Which has brought us through to the dawn, Which along with the world, the stars, and home Will exist when we pass on, And will shed their sweet light forever new Like the sunlight, in each nook. I sing not of binding, or print, or gilt; I sing of the open book! F. M.
Foreword WOULDN'T it be wonderful to live• forever as a happy student at dear old C.C. But such is your fate, just as you begin to learn how to go to school you must leave with those words of your Alma Mater song ringing in your ears, "Onward, Upward, be your motto still." Then after you have pressed on, achieved greater things and reached the top of the ladder; when you are sitting at home by a cozy fireside after the day's work is done; it is then that the staff of this book hopes that it will bring you far more enjoyment than now.

McChesney sat on one end of a log And I sat on the other. McChesney came as a pedagogue And taught as an elder brother. I don't care what McChesney taught— Though he knew the things that I judged he ought— For I thought, thought I, All through lecture time and quizz, - The kind of a man I mean to be Is the kind of a man McChesney is! Not all the books on all the shelves But what the teachers are themselves. For education is making men; So is it now, so was it when McChesney sat on one end of a log And I sat on the other. 1 Orland M. Ritchie, '16.

The Faculty It gives us great pleasure to dedicate this page to our faculty, thus showing in some measure the gratitude which we feel for them for all that they have so willingly done for us. Dr. McChesney, President of Cedarville College, has been on its staff since 1894. Each year through his untiring efforts he becomes more of an inspiration to us to work harder in the perpetuation of our beloved Alma Mater. Dr. Jurkat, Treasurer and Professor of German and History, camel to C.C.in 1895. A real student and lover of knowledge he sets an example which most of us might well follow during our College Course. Dean Steele came in 1927 as Professor of Bible and Sociology. This year, due to his faithful service, he has been appointed-Dean of Men. Dean Angevine, Professor of English and Latin, came to C. C. in 1929. Due to her tact and humor she is very popular with the student body. As Dean of Women she has been, very successful. Professor Kuehrman,Head of the Department of Science, has accomplished much in building up that Department. Although he has only been with us two years we feel that he is an integral part of the faculty. Professor Davis, Registrar and Professor of Mathematics, is a diligent worker in behalf of the future success of C. C. Mrs. Shedd, Professor of Psychology and History, came in 1929 to C. C. She is Assistant Registrar and in that capacity has much contact with the students. Miss Wood, Professor of Romance Languages, is one of our most conscientious instructors. She has a real love for her work which cannot help but win our respect. Miss Berkley, Head of the Department of Music since 1928, has installed a Men's and Women's Glee Club which are very popular with the student body as well as a source of pleasure to the community. Mrs. Corry, Assistant in the Department of Music, has been a willing helper in the Women's Glee Club as well as in every other activity in the community. Coach Borst, Head of the Athletic Department and Professor of Spanish, shows us the attitude of true sportsmanship which is so necessary in all life's activities. Professor Hostetler, Director of Education, has a wide field of experience which he is ever ready to share with the students of C. C. Miss Bristow, Professor of Education and Teacher Training, has a lasting influence on every prospective teacher graduating from C. C. Miss Parry,Professor of Education, is an industrious worker for the betterment of the students of C. C. Mrs. Borst, Professor of Education, as manager of Cedar-Day, always aids in making our memories of Commencement Week more pleasant. This year has marked greater success for Cedarville College than has any in the past. Ever onward is our goal and wc are sure that all this Senior Class will join in the advance toward this goal with our Faculty.

The Seniors ItId Farewell Friends must part, alas forever Tho'I wish it were not so; For its hard to now be passing, It is hard for us to go. Silently, with teardrops flowing We must bid farewell to you, We as students in this college, Greater friendship could not know. But four years have passed so quickly And we have to journey on; Yet we ask you most sincerely Not to mourn our passing on. We have lived these years to-gether And have learned to love you too, But now all our ties are severed And with sadness we must go. As we go we all would cherish Just one parting word from you, That may help us to remember As in life we're passing thru. So we say farewell, Oh College, But excuse us if we cry; 'We have spent these years to-gether And its hard to say goodbye. George W. Davis,'30. Twenty-two
Senior Class Dallas Marshall President Blair Brawl Vice President Mary Ruth Wham Secretary _Treasurer Lucile Tanner S 0 this is college. When we came to college in September 1926, we were very curious. (Freshmen are, you know). We paid strict attention to every announcement. (Freshmen do). We attended classes regularly and punctually. (Freshmen are guilty sometimes). And last of all we STUDIED. (Freshmen do that, too). Our motto was "Nil sine magno vita labore dedict mortalilus." (Life gives nothing to mortals without much labor). But it paid. At the end of the year we were promoted to the rank of Sophomores. No terrible danger assailed us this year, such as haircuts, long rides, and long walks, although there were some upper classmen who felt that we had not yet received our share of such treatment. Then our Junior year came sailing around with several new ones on the crew of teachers. We soon became acquainted and liked them fine. The great events of the year were connected with the play "Billy" which was a big hit and the banquet. Perhaps we shouldn't say much about that since we gave it. Now, we are Seniors. It doesn't seem so long since we started, at first though, but—consider all the things that have happened—it has been four years all right. There are several great occasions ahead of us, but there is one of prime importance. "To graduate, or not to graduate; That is the question." (Before the class of 1930) (This will be according to the professors, not Shakespeare) In closing we could say that we have the best class that has ever graduated, but that is rather common, so we just want to say that we give our very best wishes to our Alma Mater, M.

The Trip is Almost O'er One more dip and we'll glide along Out in midstream where the current's strong, Where the salmon flash and the small fish dash At the sudden dip of the supple ash; Away we go to the river's end, Driftin' along where the current sends. Lean back in your seats and stretch your limbs And watch the fish as he upward swims For the water's clear, as the twilight's here; And list to the noisy wood folk near, They assemble now on the woody shore And call for their mates the forest o'er. The rapids are near, oh, classmates of mine, Can't you see them ahead where the boulders shine? The birds in the trees singing melodies, They know full well how these rocks can seize And smash in a flash a staunch canoe, With anyone in it like me and you. Lift up the paddle again on high, For the treacherous rapids are safely by, And now for home let the old boat roam, For we've passed the worst of the river's foam, But listen once more to the folks on shore, For this glorious trip is almost o'er.

( Junior Class Alfred Townsley President Wendell Boyer Vice President Mildred Carle Secretary Sarah Rumbaugh Treasurer MODERN DAVIDS Ours is the illustrious class of 1931, We would not want another. It inspireth us to noble deeds: Yea sometimes it soareth our souls. It leadeth us in the paths of victory for its name's sake. Yea, though we ride through the valleys in our collegiate Fords, We are not towed up the hills. We fear no rivals; our wisdom and our knowledge discomfort many. We anoint the faces of our fellow students with chocolate candy. Our charge-account books runneth over; We enjoy our athletic victories and our class feeds in the presence of our enemies. Surely if we continue in such growth and success all the days of our lives, We shall dwell in the hearts of our profs and fellow students forever. M. M.C. Thirtu-five
WENDELL BOYER He comes from Good Hope but Springfield is a good town, too. Is a mean singer and a fine athlete. Was Duke for a night. SARAH RUMBAUGH Our star athlete of the obstinate sex. We know now why she is always on the eats committee. Did you see her in Kempy? DONALD ALLEN Gone but not forgotten is our Belle Center lad. Loves the basketball court and cares little for the recitation hall. IRENE TOBIAS Why is "Bob" Wilson going to be a farmer? Ask Irene. She sure must stay out late, she never gets to school at eight. ALBERT TURNER An all around athlete and a ladies man par excellence. Who's your girl now Koty? Former member of the Weasel's nest. Thirty-six
ALFRED TOWNSLEY So called President of our class. Can tell you the cxact time the mail train from Wi:zonsin arrives. Proprietor of the famous Wcasels Nest. For one night was called "Kempy." CARMEN FRAZIER A willing worker and a fine student. Has a smile for every one. She is also a very promising actress. BRENTON TURNER Hails from Massachusetts but seems to like Cedarville okay. He stays at Dr. Mac's so he doesn't fear for his grades. MILDRED CARLE Manager of the girl's basket ball team. One of our few "A" students. A treat worker and she sure likes our feeds. VERNON HICKMAN Hickman is the wittiest member of our class. Drives a millionaire's car when he doesn't have to push it. Toots a mean Sax and studies in his spare time. Thirtu-seven
41M1 JAMES STORMONT A late addition to our class. Is quite air minded but manages to come to earth once in a while to play an excellent game at center on our football team. WILMA CURRY Comes from the same town as the famous Kenny, Wellsville. A member of the Girl's Glee Club. And when it comes to "PEP" our Bill has it. ROBERT COLLINS Bob drives another Ford and takes an active interest in Alpha. The baby of the famous Collins family. Some baby. HELEN POWERS Our Prima Donna, a shark at Latin and French. A promising teacher. We must not forget her ready smile. JOSEPH FOSTER An authority on most anything and a good singer. A charter member of Hartman's Frat but always wears his own clothes.

Sophomores Oh, the Sophs are Freshies one year old And wiser by a year; At least they think they are and so Right now let's give a cheer For "Sophs" "So Smooth" "So Powerful" "So Soft." Thimpnine
Our College You may talk about the mountains of Virginia, You may speak about the plains of Illinois, But you cannot find a spot to me that's grander Than the college I attended as a boy. I recall the lessons there the school has taught me, And the passing years but makes them plainer still. How I love that dear old college in Ohio. How I love that dear old school called Cedarville. Some day in the distant future we shall honor That old school that's meant so much to us, And we'll think about our many constant friendships As the years slip slowly 'way from us. I can challenge you my friends to find another, Just another more enshrined in hearts of men, Than our dear old Alma Mater, thru the ages Teaching leadership to many girls and men. Cedarville our Alma Mater, we all love her And her name means very much to all; So we hope she stands thruout the many ages, Giving learning to those who hear the call. George W. Davis, '30.
Sophomore Class Lenora Skinnell President Edward Irons Vice President Esther Mae Hartman Secretary Gertrude Martin Treasurer IN the fall of 1928, thirty Freshmen entered Cedarville College. After having been properly initiated by the upper classmen, the Freshies began to try to do their bit both in the classroom and out. They were very prominent in athletics and the Girl's Glee Club. Twenty-five of these Freshies returned in 1929 to enter the ranks as Sophomores. By that time they had gotten into the full swing of college activities. Last fall some of the best football players were Sophomores. The girls went out for basketball and glee club and have performed well in both. Several of the Sophomore boys have entered the Boy's Glee Club which has been recently organized. However, the Sophomores have not allowed all the extra-curricular activities to interfere seriously with their classwork. We hope to see all of them back next year doing still better work. Fortu-one

F. Finney, S. Kirby, G. Beatty, R. Trumbo V. Bishop, R. Bratton, G. Barnhart Second Year Normal WE, THE second year normal class of 1930, are small in quantity but mighty in intellect. When we entered as Freshmen we were ten in number. Several of them did not return this year, but others have taken their places. It seems as yesterday as We entered Cedarville College as Freshmen and now we are leaving. We regret that this is our last year here. For two years, we have shared together, the pleasures and the knocks of college life. Next year we expect to become efficient teachers, passing our vast amount of knowledge on to others. If you should glance into one of our study rooms, any hour of the day, you would probably see us studying or working on Art. We never go to class without our lesson. But you would not call us narrow, as we enter all phases of College Life. V. B.
H. Auld C. Rife R. Duffey Special Students G. Hamman HARVEY AuLD We thought we were rid of Harvey last year when he received his A.B., but he fooled us, much to our liking. After discussing the situation with Mr. Elder. president of the bank, for several weeks Mr. Elder decided he could spare Harvey for a couple of hours a day. In those two hours he has returned to C.C. and finished his educational work and a major in science. Not bad for a lad his size. Here's to Harvey,"The Immortal Football Manager and Baseball Rooter.' CHRISTINE RIFE She really belongs with the Juniors but since she changed her course and we had the correct number of Junior pictures without her's we put her over here where we can give her a little more attention. Christine decided she wanted a B.S. in Education so now is in the Normal Department. More power to you, Shorty. ROBERT DuFFEY Bob spent his first year with us in '27-'28. Then decided to go to Miami and major in.Physical Education where he labored in '28-'29. Found out he could get what he wanted at C.C. the first semester this year so we found him again in our midst and indeed we're glad to have him. Bob originated the College Band. May this organization continue to grow and learn to honor him for its creation. GERTRUDE HAMMAN Miss Hamman is now in the Music Department after spending a year and a half in regular college work. We are sorry she is not with us more and are always glad to have her pleasing countenance with us.

Freshmen Oh,the Freshies are the babies; But such infants you ne'er saw; We hope they'll stay another year, But now let's give a rah "For Bigger and Better Freshmen." Forto-five
That Cedarville Chum of Mine "When the toil of day is ended, When the twilight shadows fall, When the fitful gleaming firelight Casts weird forms upon the wall, It is then for happy dreaming I all anxious cares resign, And greet again in mem'ry land, That college chum of mine. "But after all bright visions Of the other friends depart, The thought of one stays with me, Treasured deep within my heart; And I trust that till the sun of life Shall cease for me to shine, I shall never lose the mem'ry of That Cedarville chum of mine." —From an Old Cedrus.

Freshman Class Marion Rife President Ruby Johnston Vice President .Marian Roseberry Secretary Winthrop Ballard Treasurer S EPTEMBER 1929 saw about fifty Freshmen wandering around the campus trying not to look insignificant. This group was composed of representatives far and near, from the Mississippi to way up in Vermont. It was a hard life at first, wearing rattles, getting soaked at Willow Bend,and attempting feeds, well, the less said about that the better. No doubt many a little Freshie thought consisted of "home" and that "Old Gang of Mine" in High School. However after the class was organized satisfactorily the group began to fit into this new regime. Many contributions in athletics and other student activities were made by the Freshies. We are now fairly well acquainted and have formed a mighty fine opinion of our class. There are athletes, humorists, and musicians, not to mention scholars among us, although we never let our studies interfere with our education. We obey all the rules and regulations as model Freshmen should, and never consider cutting classes. It is our aim and desire to become better appreciated by our dear profs and fellow students. And now lest the august body of upper classmen frown upon our seeming conceit, we will have to show them how good we are. So in this spirit may we simply say: YEA FRESHMEN. LET'S GO. B.E. Fortu-se n

Anders First Year Normal AND it did come to pass that in the year of our Lord 1929 that a great clamor arose from the multitude attending the College of Cedarville, in that such a sophisticated group of First Year Normals had appeared on the campus. Of course we had many hard knocks to encounter, among which first appeared the unintelligent entrance exams, and secondly, the Freshmen initiation, but we faced it all as all good sports should. We contributed to the crowds attending the ball games and social functions. Altho we were unable to donate any regular players for the athletic teams, we did give three officers to the Freshmen class.

Music THE Department of Music, under the direction of Professor Lydia A. Berkley, assisted by Mrs. Helen Laughlin Corry, is located in the Carnegie Library. Professor Berkley, who is a graduate of Lincoln Conservatory of Music, and has taken work at the Hiram Conservatory and that of Oberlin, offers courses in Organ and Piano. Professor Corry, the voice instructor, is a graduate of the college of Wooster. The Girls' Glee Club, trained by Professor Berkley, is made up of about thirty voices. The Boys' Glee Club, under the same direction, is made up of about twenty voices. Although the latter club was late in starting, it has added pep to the Music Department. During the latter part of February, the Girls' Glee Club gave a concert of beautiful pieces in the First Presbyterian Church. It was well attended and enjoyed by all. The Music Department offers courses in Public School Music, Notation, Harmony, History, Theory, Sight Reading, and Ear Training as well as the more ordinary courses in practice on the use of the instruments and voice. Those who are pupils in the department enjoy the work very much and wish here to express their appreciation of the splendid work of their instructors. Seminary THE smallest department of our school, but by far not the least, is the seminary. This department can truly claim the benefit of the age old proverb, "Good goods is done in small packages." Although the seminary enrollment is small the courses are thorough and handled by able men whose teaching and example can strictly be followed into a deeper and fuller life of Christian service. We do not feel discouraged on account of the small enrollment since there has been a scarcity of young men and women entering in this type of life service and in all similar departments of other schools there is the same condition. We do, however, look forward to a decided turn toward vocations of a spiritual nature and a marked growth of this department. We urge that any young person preparing for a great service for the "Master" will take advantage of the opportunities offered here and sit at the feet of those able instructors from whom, we feel has gone out, great powers "Pro Christo et Patria."

( t THE athletic division of this book we humbly dedicate to Coach Marvin Borst and his achievements at C.C. since 1926, when he came to us from Wittenberg. When Coach Borst came to Cedarville the athletic equipment was practically a minus quantity. Until the time of Borst the football men were required to buy their own shoes, but that is history now. Cedarville's football togs represent the best that money can buy. There has been three new sets of basketball suits purchased. The baseball men are attired in the same quality of uniforms worn by major leaguers. This is only one of the changes in the "Athletic Reformation" at C.C. In football our college teams have made quite an advancement. Before '26 no C.C. gridiron team had won more than a single contest during the season's play. That saying was discarded in '27. In '29 the Borstmen held Wilmington to a scoreless tie. The only pigskin tussle between these schools which did not end victorious for the Quakers. "Yellow Jacket" basketball stock has gained steadily. Before the coming of Borst the court men seldom played over a dozen games a year and several of these with minor independent teams. Now C.C. squads meet the foremost college and university teamsof the state and have made an enviable record for a "Small College." Fifty-six

Football Review IN the past Cedarville has always been noted for comparatively fine football teams. This year was no exception. The boys fought and scrapped with team after team which comp!etely outweighed them and which had two or three other teams equally strong waiting on the sidelines to enter the game. But in no games were our boys outscrapped and they deserve far more credit than the score book gives them. Our boys played such powerful teams as Cincinnati University, Kentucky Wesleyan University, Transylvania and Ohio Northern University. And despite the apparent odds against us, our boys fought only as our boys can fight. Usually they came back with at least respectable scores; even though they were not in our favor. Perhaps the outstanding battle of the season was the one with Cincinnati University. And one of the outstanding odds against us was the fact that this
r's was one of the three night games of the season. Our boys were not used to playing under such conditions. Cincinnati won the game 19 to 0. But this does not tell half the story for we completely outplayed Cincinnati during the first half. Cincinnati got a couple of lucky breaks later which handed the game to them. The other night games were with Transylvania and Ashland. Suffice it to say that they beat us by a safe margin. Of course, we must add that they represented the strongest teams in Kentucky and Ohio. Naturally, we cannot forget that great battle with Wilmington on the "Big Green's" own field. Wilmingon has beaten Cedarville in football, basketball, and baseball for a good many years, but this day our luck changed, and we played a scoreless tie with the far heavier team. And how our boys did fight, for they had a fighting chance. Every Cedarville student that day felt as if this was worth a victory. When other schools speak of us they sometimes call us "little" Cedarville. We can think of nothing they can mean except the literal meaning "small in size." Our men were outnumbered in reserve squads, certainly. They were, as has been stated, outweighed at every turn. But theyplayed the game "big" and we're proud to say that "little" cannot be applied to their sportsmanship. And after all, that's what counts. B.T.

Practically a veteran team, experienced in playing together, turned out for the first practice this year. Had this group continued the prospects would have turned out as they looked at first—fine. But before the season was finished, the veteran group was broken. All credit is due, however, to those who filled their places, and were excellent sports at being second choice. We are heartily appreciative of the fine work they did for us. Most of these were members of that promising group of Freshies which appeared at Borst's first "call for men." On December fourth the boys opened the season with a decisive victory over the boys from Antioch. However, after starting out on the right foot, they tripped and fell on the wrong side of the winning column for the next four games. But two of these games were with the powerful Cincinnati University and St. Xavier teams. They proved, however, that though they were temporarily "down" they
were certainly not "out." Between January fourth and tenth they put on an amazing burst of speed and defeated Dayton "U," Transylvania, Findlay, and Bliss. This showed what they really could do. We were defeated by the Ohio State Reserves, but it is hinted, that it was only with the help of a couple of the 0.S. U. regulars. We went down again, after a hard fight, to our old rival, Wilmington, who had one of the best teams in their history this past season. Cedarville's hopes for further laurels received a severe shock when at the beginning of the second semester, "Smitty," alias "Bruiser," and Allen, alias "Choppy" quit school. Of course, this broke things up for a while, but the coach did not despair and at the close of the season, three or four of the Freshmen were playing in there like oldtime veterans, and the prospects for next year look mighty fine. The Freshie boys gave a fine exhibition of basketball in the post season class tournament. They took the Senior's number. It seemed to be no trouble at all. And—they had the Junior team with its three or four Varsity members worried for three quarters, although the Juniors finally won. The moral is,—Juniors, beware of the Freshies next year. B. T.

Girls I;)asketball THE girls had a very successful season this year, going down in defeat but twice. An exceptionally classy center, accurate forwards, and a trio of fine defensive players made up a hard half-dozen. As for personal mention we start with Captain Tanner, also captain last year, who has led her team to victory in thirteen out of eighteen contests in the last two years. A very good record and we sure will miss her. The other two Seniors will also leave quite a gap to fill next year, Raisenen and Kirby, two stellar guards. THE PLAYERS TANNER—forward. Our captain.

Itaseball Review of'29 IN the early years of the college's history, Cedarville was baseball noted. They even approached championship. We do not claim quite so much honor, but we want our share, at least. Cedarville's baseball team last year made a good showing and played creditable games. We must admit at the outset, that while there was some good baseball played by our team last seasdn, yet there were also some mediocre games to its credit. We had some tough. breaks, the weather man had a prejudice against our practicing, and there were some minor and major injuries to baseball men. All of these things contributed to the mediocre side. Two games especially, were occasions of downfalls, when it seemed to us, that luck was just not with us. The peak of the season as far as success goes came with the game at Muskingum; There we beat a team which up to that point had won every game of the season. The score was 4 to 3. We lost two heartbreakers to Antioch, one battle going to ten innings, with our team merely nosed out. The queerest game of the season was played with Dayton at Dayton. It A
was a freak in every respect. This game started in a downpour of rain and the downpour did not stop until nine innings were over. At the beginning of the fifth inning the water measured one foot at home plate. The team was not equipped with bathing suits, nor used to leaded feet, so we list. It is a singular fact, that in the return game with Dayton at Cedarville only two innings could be played because of rain. Anyhow, we weren't beaten. This year a new league was formed by the coaches of four schools with our coach at the head. The schools were Cedarville, Antioch. Wilmington, and Wilberforce. The league was therefore called the C. A. W. W. League. This added to interest as well as some other phases. Other games which we played were two with Wittenberg and one with Defiance, the latter being the occasion of our second trip of some distance away. Each team in the League had three games with each other team so we were well supplied with games both at home and "abroad." At the time of this writing, it looks as if Cedarville might have a real ball team this year. A number of the regulars are back and also a most promising group of new material. Our hopes are high. And perhaps the next Cedrus will show more games in the winning column. A Toast by Coach orst B. T. N0 greatertribute can be paid to our athletics at Cedarville than to say that they are clean, fair, and free from all scandal. When one considers the type of boys that engage in athletics at Cedarville College, free from all flattering inducements and bribes, one can readily see why we have the "TRUE SPORTS." Our boys play the game because they like it not because they are paid to do it, and I don't know how many times I have heard this expression,"A fine bunch of boys, where do you find them? Athletics will be better in all branches during the coming seasons, especially football and baseball. At the present writing it looks like we will have a fine bunch of Freshmen to select from when September rolls around. Our boys have not always won, as our records show, but at least they have always given their best. On every occasion they have been true Sportsmen, taking defeat rather than gain through unfair methods. To these men goes the best that C.C. has. We are very thankful to all those who help make them the kind of boys we are proud of. Let us dedicate a new Aim, "Bigger and Better Sports at Cedarville College." Stxty-six

Cedrus Staff FIRST comes the statement which is expected. "We wish to thank, from the depths of our hearts, all those who have been so kind to help make this book what it is, for better or for worse." The average person cannot and does not even imagine the amount of work, worry, and time that is required to publish a college annual. At Cedarville the situation is doubly so; with money conspicuous by its absence and the editor usually interested in everything but magazine publication. Nevertheless, we have done what we could. Some will be satisfied, some not. If any of you receive any enjoyment , Sixty-eight
at any time from this book we will feel that our labors have not been in vain. There are a few persons outside of the regular college routine that have helped make this book what it is; to them we extend our sincerest gratitude and will now mention them personally. Mr. Robert Thompson, who we all learned to admire during his three years at Cedarville College, helped with the Art work, drawing the pages for the division pages and the border views. Mr. Elmer Jurkat, the genius, gave very valuable aid in arranging the snapshot pages. He also helped with the Diary in his incomparable witty manner. It seems almost a shame not to give personal mention to our own Art Editor, who labored so hard in preparing this book. Marion will come in for his share of the glory in the next few years which will be well deserved. To next years staff we will all our cares, griefs, and woes. We hope they can far surpass this example. If there is anything we can help them do at any time we will only be more than glad to do it.
