IN MEMORIAM

To the memory of Charles E. Sindlinger, whose life

was devoted to a profession which amplifies the joy of

human existence. "He knew himself to sing," and from

him h s fellow men learned the art. At eventide, Febru-

ary 28, 1928, he quietly departed from his band of disci-

ples, friends, ana relatives to jo.n the "Choir Invisible

whose music is the gladness of the world."

HARVEY L. RICKERT

This page commemorates a teacher who for his sincere sympathyand understanding of college young people will always hold an especial

place in the memories of many Lincoln College students. He repre-

sented the best traditions of human life. His constant encouragement

and helpful advice have brought many students to a realization of their

best selves. Fortunate are they wno will be reached by his sustaining

influence in the new sphere of life which he has now entered.

FOOTBALL

Lincoln College officially opened the football season by playing Illinois Wesleyan

at Bloomington, Friday, September 23. The score was 15-0 in favor of the Methodists.

The next game was with our greatest rival, Illinois College on Saturday, October

1. The day was a miserable one and virtually every break of the game was converted

into points for our opponents. The exact score of this contest was 26-0.

On the morning of October S, all Lincoln was astir. This was the day of days,

our Homecoming. We played the strong Macomb eleven; and when the final crack of

the gun announced the end of the game, we had failed to win the game by a touch-

down. The score vv'as 6-0 in their favor.

But finally our team was able to come into its own. We played Eureka, October

14. and Prince and Co. brought home the heavy end of a 26-0 score.

Front Row—James Allison (mgr.) Lowell Qnisenberry, Cecil McCawley, OraByerly, Robert Cox, Clifford Hurst, Wilbert Earhart, Fred Stroud, Frank Watt.

Our next foe on the gridiron was McKendree College at Lebanon, October 22. The

day was too hot and the Centenarians too strong for our small squad. They won 19-14.

Again Dame Fortune smiled upon us and the over-confident Normal team trekked

to Lincoln and trekked back home again with changed countenances. The Lincoln

cohorts, wearing the Purple and White, arose to the occasion and trounced Normal

soundly, 20-7.

No November 5, Lincoln journeyed to Mt. Morris where they were compelled to lose

a hard-fought game to a large Homecoming crowd. The score was 12-0.

Friday, November 11, Armistice Day, Lincoln defied the raging elements and

defeated the Bradley Freshman team 20-6.

The curtain fell on our 192S football season Friday, November 18. We played

Eastern Illinois State Normal of Charleston on our home field. Lincoln College was

able to see for the last time Captain Bob Prince, ex-captain George Kerns, and Lowell

Quisenberry, all seniors, display their valiant brand of fighting in purple and white

uniforms. The score was 32-13 in their favor.

if' BASKETBALLLnicoln College opened the basketball season with a non-conference game on

December 16 with Concordia Seminary of Springfield, Illinois. The outcome was one

iof'igreat satisfaction. The score, Lincoln 49 to Springfield 15, seemed to send the

local cage stock soaring and on every tongue there were forecasts of another great

season. The game officially opened our remodeled gymnasium.

jj;The next game of the season was with the strong Carbondale quintet December 19.

|hi A last-second basket by Wilson, Carbondale running guard, caused a tie in the over-

time period; Carbondale made two baskets as the gun announced the end of the game.

Lincoln had lost its first conference game by the score of 29 to 25.

On January 6, the Lincoln College team played Millikin and Millikin literally, with

blood in her eyes, stood ready to avenge herself for the 55 to 33 spanking of the pre-

vious season. The score resulted in a victory for Millikin, 43 to 30.

•'•/ January 13th found the Lincoln quintet situated in Macomb, Illinois, fighting to

re'3eem herself for the previous setbacks. Handicapped by a small gymnasium, and

travel worn, another game was placed in the wrong column. The score was Macomb36, Lincoln 22.

Page 44: Lincoln College: The Emancipator (1928)

Probably the most desired and the most important game of the year was played

on January 20 with Wesleyan. The score, 46 to 32 in Wesleyan's favor, little describes

the game. A bad start in the first half left us with another loss. One pleasing

feature of this game was the wonderful fight Lincoln displayed during the second

half. It is to Lincoln's credit that she made more points in one game than any other

team who played Wesleyan during the 1927-28 basketball season.

Wheaton, our next foe, played here January 23 and our team lost by a score of

25 to 31.

A fighting mad and determined team embarked for Normal on January 28. Lin-

coln's first conference victory of the year occurred. The score was 37 to 24 in Lin-

coln's favor.

Three evenings later, January 31, Lincoln played Eureka and again the Jinx, as

some call it, was with our College team or else Dame Luck failed to be with us, as

we lost, 31-29.

Remembering our defeat of the previous year, Lincoln played Illinois College to a

standstill on February 8. The score was in our favor, 28-27.

Our next two games were also defeats—Wesleyan winning by a score of 56 to 27

February 11 and Macomb, the following week. February 14, by a score of 34 to 26.

Normal played Lincoln at Lincoln February 17 and a perfect score was in our

favor. Lincoln 37, Normal 18. The second team, to climax everything, also won fromNormal's second team.

On February 27, McKendree won a close game—27 to 26; and March 2nd foundthe curtain falling on the Lincoln College basketball season. This date also sawGeorge Kerns' and Robert Prince's last college basketball game. To these two play-

ers go the best and highest honors which any athlete can claim—that of four years of

enviable and honorable service.

CHEER LEADERS

Three representatives of PEP—Clarence Troster, Calbreth Shull, and Lewis

Skipper. These men make up a very essential part of every athletic team in the

College. They have the most difficult position of all to play. When everything in the

game is not going as it should, they are the ones who must supply the necessary

encouragement to both the team and the spectators. Skippy suggests that anyone whothinks that is not a real .job should try pulling up-hill alone a string of freight cars

and an engine which is in reverse. Because they generally have to work with the

odds heavily against them and often against their own inward feelings, they deserve

our utmost cooperation and praise.

All right! Are we ready? Let's go!

CROSS COUNTRY TEAM

Lincoln College's thin-clads entered into cross country training in February.

The team consisted of Byron Heinzel, Wilbert Earhart, Lyle Simmons, Delmar Fisher,

and Ralph Prickett. A dual meet with Eureka which they won by a close margin and

a triangular one at Peoria composed of Bradley, Eureka and Lincoln were all of the

meets for this year. This was Lincoln's initial year for cross country; and as the

hills and dales around Logan county are conducive to good cross country running,

Lincoln should have great teams in this sport in the future.

INTRA-MURAL BASKETBALL

The first annual intra-mural tournament at Lincoln College was inaugurated this

year. There were six teams battling for the title. They were the Faculty, Seniors,

Juniors, Sophomores, Freshman A, and Freshman B teams.

The opening game was between the two old rivals, the Juniors and the Seniors.

The Seniors won by a close 12-11 score. Probably the most exciting game was the

one-point victory of the Faculty over the Freshman A team. The biggest upset came

v/hen the Seniors squeezed the Faculty out of the undisputed claim to the champion-

ship by holding a three-point lead on them at the end of the game.

W. A. A. TENNIS

Tenms is one of the major sports of the W. A. A. Interest in this form of ath-

letic activity has never been as keen as it was this year.

Coacli N. H. Anderson started the girls on indoor practice early in the spring;

and as soon as the weather permitted, the courts were invaded.

Each year a tennis tournament in which all members of the organization par-

ticipate, is staged under the direction of Coach Anderson. Four qualifying rounds

are played between members of the Association before the tournament proper be-

gins. Then those of equal ability are matched in the final tournament, and by the

process of elimination, the winner is selected.

The girls also engaged in some inter-collegiate competition this year. Twomatches with Illinois College were played. The scores of these were won 4-0, and

lost 1-3.

This organization represents the intelligentia of Lincoln College. All students

who receive sixty merits during a semester, forty-five of which must be for scholar-

ship, are eligible to membership in this organization for one year. Life membership

is granted to seniors who are members at the time of their graduation and who have

had at least two years membership in the organization during their college careers.

Less than five percent of the total enrollment were eligible for membership last

semester. Thus this group of students may indeed feel proud of the honor which

they have won for themselves.

This year the "Amasags" have enjoyed some of the best programs ever presented

in the society. Besides taking a great deal of interest in their programs the membersshowed their literary ability by winning the contest staged in The Lincolnian. Cash

prizes were offered for the best piece of literary production written by a member of

the literary societies. In addition to the cash prize, points were awarded to the society

whose members won. The Amasags obtained the most points and consequently were

guests of the Philos at a party.

This has been one of the most enjoyable years ever experienced by the "Philos."

At the beginning of each semester the entire program for the semester was made out.

We found that this made better programs and consequently better meetings.

Among the feature programs was a mock trial which created a great deal of

interest and enthusiasm. Another unique program was the Captain program, in

which the captain of each sport outlined his views of the sport and commented on

the technique of the game.

the campus. At least, we know that the Y. W. is always ready to do what is asked

and more. Just what we could attribute this characteristic willingness to would be dif-

ficult to say; but we will venture a supposition that it is due to the very fine spirit

of its members.

THE RAILSPLITTERS

This is an organization of all the college athletes who have earned their letters by

participating in inter-collegiate competition in any of the various sports sponsored by

the athletics department at Lincoln.

This group of young men have been most successful in promoting athletic activities

on the campus this year. They are responsible for the well-organized intra-mural

basketball tournament which provided much enjoyment to many who would never

have otherwise been able to compete in this sport as members of the varsity squad.

But the outstanding achievement of the association for this year was the Invi-

tational Tournament which they inaugurated for the benefit of all the high schools

in Logan County. This affair was handled very efficiently for the first time; and

will probably become a permanent event in Logan County athletics in the future.

Each spring the club takes its annual tour. This year concerts were given in

Springfield, Auburn, Siaunton, East St. Lou^s, Litchfield, Broadwell, Emden, MasonCity, Beason, Illiopolis, and Lincoln.

The standard uniform of the club for formal wear is the tuxedo. This year

new purple jackets with the Lincoln College seal on the left side, were adopted by

the club for informal wear.

DEBATE

This is Lincoln's second year of inter-collegiate debate. The question for discus-

sion this year was: "Resolved the United States should cease to protect private

capital invested in foreign countries except after formal declaration of war."

The debaters met in four encounters, one of which was held on our campus.

They were McKendree affirmative vs. Lincoln men's negative; Shurtlcff negative

vs. Lincoln men's affirmative; Valparaiso University affirmative vs. Lincoln men's

negative; and Lombard girls' negative vs. Lincoln girls' affirmative. All decisions

were in favor of Lincoln's opponents.

The debaters who have participated in at least one inter-collegiate debate dur-

ing the year are eligible to wear a gold pin in the shape of the letter "L" to signify

their membership in the Lincoln College Debaters. The officers of the organization

for this year were

LINCOLN COLLEGE BAND

Under the very capable direction of Prof. H. O. Merry our band has made great

progress since its organization three years ago. The band was first made possible

through interest taken in it by the Lincoln Rotary Club.

This year the band of twenty-two members has appeared at every football and

basketball game held in Lincoln. It closed a most satisfactory year with its annual

concert given during Commencement week.

ACTIVITIES

Page 73: Lincoln College: The Emancipator (1928)

DRAMATICS"Seven Chances," October 7

The play concerned the fortunes of Jimmie Shannon (Calbreth ShuU) "a bachelorby birth," who was left twelve million dollars by his grandfather provided that hewould be married before he reached the age of thirty. His friends mistook the dateof his birth which necessitated rushing business to get him a wife. He had six

chances which did not please him so much—but the seventh chance proved mostinteresting. The incidents surrounding the "taking unto himself" a wife made theplay one of the cleverest comedy hits.

"Charley's Aunt," November 11

Charley's Aunt from Brazil (Helene Ewing) made her appearance too soon andmade things very uncomfortable for Lord Babberly (Walter Spatz) who was imper-sonating Donna Lucia D'Alvardorez, the real aunt. The embarrassing situations in

which Babberly found himself when he was to chaperone a tea given by Charles(Ronald Holloway) and Jack (Robert Downing) for their young lady friends madethe comedy very enjoyable. The proceeds from this attraction were u^ed in im-

provement of the library.

"Second Childhood," February 28

This three-act farce centered around Prof. Relyea (Walter Lee) who for twenty-five years had striven to perfect an p]lixir of Youth. His experiments had beenpeculiarly successful. His problem was solved when he found General Burbeck(Calbreth Shull) willing to make a test of the elixir because he was anxious to wooSylvia, the Professor's daughter (Virginia Neal), who was engaged to Philip Stanton.(Evert Larson) assistant to the professor. The results, the finding of the babies, andthe "ghosts" or angels gave the play a hilarious turn which more than proved its

right to be called a farce.

"The Poor Nut," June 8

The Commencement play, "The Poor Nut," was presented by the Senior Classat the Lincoln Theatre. The plot centered about a track meet in which John Miller

(Walter Lee) "the Poor Nut," was one of the runners for Ohio University in therelay race. The climax came when the Poor Nut dropped the baton but finally wonthe race, making Ohio win the meet by a margin of four points. Yes, it certainly

was worth the price of admission!

SOCIETYFRESHMAN CONVOCATION, SEPTEMBER 15

The Freshmen showed sufficient promise of becoming true Lincolnites at the

social affair given for them soon after school had opened. They immediately beganmaking the acquaintance of their classmates as soon as they had arrived at Recital

Hall where the Convocation was held. Representatives from every organization onthe campus were present to speak to their new friends and to encourage them to

take an active part in all phases of college life. A short social hour followed the

speeches; and before the evening was over, a fine class spirit had developed amongthose who were to form the class of '31.

STUDENT RECEPTION, SEPTEMBER 16

This was "Date Night" to be sure. Even Dean Pierce encouraged it. In fact

she urged us to have seven dates in that one night. As we approached the campus,we could see the colored lights of the Japanese lanterns swaying in the gentle breeze.

When we arrived at the spot where the lawn party was to be held, we were givenour date programs which we were allowed just ten minutes time for filling out.

Our schedule provided for dates for each night in the week. There was societymeeting, Monday; social night, Tuesday; movies, Wednesday; study night, Thurs-day; music night, Friday; football game, Saturday; and confectionery date, Sunday.The last feature of the entertainment was the singing of "Alma Mater" by thewhole group who assembled around the piano.

Y. W. TEA, SEPTEMBER 22

Mother Anderson was kind enough to let us hold our Y. W. Tea at the girls'

dormitory and also to assist us in preparing for it.

The girls met at the dorm at four-thirty and enjoyed a short program includinga vocal solo by Miss Mildred Tyner and a reading by Miss Josephine Niewold. Aftera short time spent in conversation, the women of the faculty and the girls passedinto the dining room and were served hot chocolate, sandwiches, and favors.

Through this informal gathering of the girls a true Y. W. spirit was created.

HOMECOMING, OCTOBER 8

"Bigger and better" are the words which most aptly describe the 1927 Home-coming. The program for this two-day celebration followed the order of eventscustomary to this occasion. The play, "Seven Chances," given at the LincolnTheatre, Friday evening, October 7, officially opened activities. The "Jam" paradecomposed of some fifty shivering "nightmares," stalked down Broadway about mid-night of this same evening yelling to advertise the game. Saturday morning, Octo-ber 8, found a vagabond mob, one hundred and fifty strong, assembled in chapelhall; and after a rousing display of pep, this crowd of hoboes, led by the CollegeBand shuffled out of the building and meandered on down through the business dis-

trict of the town. The Homecoming game that afternoon was a stiff, hard-foughtbattle against the Macomb eleven. The score was 6-0 in their favor.

OCTOBER DRIVE, OCTOBER 18

It was a perfect day all way around. The weather man had even been inducedto help us make it so. And the committee could not have chosen a more suitablespot for this outing. Here autumn reigned supreme in all its colorful glory. Weeven found an old boat down at the creek to add to the fun. But how hungry wewere after that tug of war and the sack race! I wonder where Miss Pierce foundthat caramel apple tree which supplied our desert? And then more fun—baseball,volley ball, snake hunts and—and home!

COSTUME PARTY, FEBRUARY 24Everyone who was there said it was the most successful event of its kind this

year. The gym was attractively decorate(l in red, white, and blue; but the decora-tions worn by those present were beyond the powers of description. George andMartha Washington, Abe Lincoln, Russian nobility, Spanish dancers, colonial maidens,Jiggs and all the rest were to be found in the group.

Following the grand march, prizes were given Miss Dorothy Moore and Mr.Richard Diers for having the best costumes. A special number, a minuet, wasgiven by eight couples dressed in colonial at ire. Dancing furnished the entertain-

ment for the rest of the evening.

HALLOWE'EN, OCTOBER 31

At the request of the Y. M. and Y. W. cabine: members, an assembly of ghosismet about eight o'clock in Recital Hall where an uncanny atmosphere prevaded theroom. The feeling of mystery was intensified v>hen the ghost leaders began theii'

weird ceremonies. Even Poe would find it difficult to improve upon the impres-sionistic story which we were told and which Bob Cox proved to us by passingaround the parts of the dead man. The pumpkin pie and cider served to us after-

wards helped to restore our courage and made us able to venture forth into the

black night to pursue our way homeward.

GYMNASIUM DEDICATION, DECEMBER 14

On Wednesday evening, December 14, the formal dedication of the rebuilt andremodeled gymnasium was held.

Shortly after eight o'clock President A. E. Turner called the meeting to orderand introduced Mr. D. H. Harts, President of the Board of Managers, who told of

the co-operation of the various local firms in the reconstruction work.Coach W. T. Woleben compared present a;hletic standards with those of fifteen

years ago and spoke of basketball for the coming season.County Superintendent E. H. Lukcnbill next introduced the chief speaker of

the evening, C. W. Whitten. Commissioner of the Little Nineteen Conference.Commissioner Whitten delivered a very interesting address in which he dealt

with the athletics of the present day.

The program of the evening was concluded with a dance, the music for whichwas furnished by the College orchestra.

Friday evening, December 2. The house from cellar to garret had been made readyfor the occasion. As the verdant members were received at the door, they weretagged with names of birds, beasts, or fish. By this means were were dividedinto groups, each being sent in turn to visit the attic where a track meet was held,the upstairs where they were put through a series of intelligence tests, and thekitchen where "the bear was going over the mountain." Some interesting stereop-ticon views of Europe which were explained by Dr. Turner who had visited theseplaces furnished an appropriate climax to the occasion. Refreshments of animalcrackers, all day suckers, and pop, were served. ,

DEAN RICKERT ENTERTAINED, JANUARY 20Dr. and Mrs. Turner invited the faculty and their wives to a social affair given

in honor of the retiring Dean, Mr. H. L. Rickert. The entertainment of the eveningwas of a very informal nature. Several very close friends of Mr. Rickert expressedtheir regret concerning his leaving, but also gave him their best wishes for hissuccess in the new work he was to begin.

W. A. A. BANQUET, MARCH 16

One of the most anticipated social functions of the college year is the annualWomen's Athletic Association Banquet given annually at the close of the basketballseason. Miss Lina Moulton. president of the organization, was in charge of theaffair for this year.

The following menu was enjoyed: Chicken and celery soup, creamed chicken,mashed potatoes, creamed peas, .ielly, rolls, celery, pickles, olives, pineapple-cucum-ber salad, purple and white brick ice cream, individual white cakes adorned witha purple "L," and coffee.

DORMITORY TEA, MARCH 20

Fair co-eds graciously responded to the ringing of the doorbell at the dormi-tory Tuesday evening, March 20. The guests then confronted candy booths incharge of Frieda Komnick and Mildred Tyner. From there the visitors wereushered into the living room where the antique suite which was to be upholsteredwas on display. Several of the girls were grouped about the piano to provide themusic for the occasion. In the dining room Misses Halcyone Tandy and WildaAnderson served tea and wafers to the guests.

MAY DRIVE, MAY 10

At 9:30 Thursday, May 10, a veritable caravan of Fords and otherwise left thecampus for a beautiful spot along the banks of the Sangamon river. This MayDay will long be a pleasant memory for all those who attended it. Horseshoepitching, baseball, hiking, and eating were the favorite sports indulged in on this

occasion. Jack Lanning of Chicago exhibited some real skill in ringing the stake.Where could he have learned the art? Probably the most enjoyable part of theday was the picnic lunch consisting of ham, baked beans, potato salad, butteredrolls, cake and strawberry sherbet. It was indeed an enjoyable affair. May therebe many more of them!

HONOR "L" SOCIETY BREAKFAST, JUNE 12The annual Honor "L" Society breakfast was held Tuesday in the dining room

of the Lincoln Cafeteria. The program arranged by Miss Lina Moulton, presidentof the organization, consisted of toasts and several musical numbers.

returned alumni this year. The occasion was a very happy one for all who attendedand the old Lincoln spirit thoroughly pervaded the atmosphere. A short businessmeeting to provide for the election of officers was held in connection with this

event.

SENIOR BREAKFAST, MAY 30The Senior class was delightfully entertained at a breakfast given by President

and Mrs. Turner, at their home May 30. The color scheme of purple and white, usedin decorating, made the room very attractive in appearance. Purple and white rib-

bons hung from the chandelier to the place cards, and a charming centerpiece of

purple and white flowers adorned the table.

The menu consisted ofStrawberries in Snow

Lamb Chops Creamed PotatoesSliced Tomatoes and Cottage Cheese

Hot Biscuits MarmaladeIce Cream in Canteloupe

LINCOLN COLLEGE AS I SEE IT"

A complete corps of instructors who teach discriminately, a curriculum ofcourses so arranged as to afford the broadest general culture, a well developedthough not over-emphasized athletic and student life, combine to make Lincoln oneof the most efficient small colleges in the middle-west. It is located in Lincoln,which is one of the most beautiful and progressive cities in Illinois. It is the onlycity in the nation named for the great Emancipator with his permission before thetime of his death. Its many cultured families make it pre-eminent as an educa-tional center, and the fine Christian atmosphere and influence to be found heremake it possible for the college to provide for young men and women a liberal edu-cation, thus fulfilling the aim of its founders.

There are always a few young people whose minds are made up from child-

hood as to the vocation they will select. Others wisely wait until they get intocollege before choosing definitely. Young men and women better fit themselves to live

by attending college. They are naturaly cautious, therefore, in selecting the schoolwhich they are to call alma mater. Upon investigation, the most discriminatingwill find Lincoln ideally adapted to almost every need.

It is at the small schools that personalities are developed. One educator haswisely said: "At a large university, the student goes through college. At a smallBchool, the college goes through the student." At Lincoln, small classes insuremore individual attention.

Both the scholastic and athletic standards of Lincoln College rank high. At nosmall college is the standard of class-room work higher. Here the instructors areable to give each student more personal attention because they have only a limited

number of classes with which to work.

Lincoln is a member of the Illinois Intercollegiate Athletic Association, better

known as the Little Nineteen, and has regularly organized teams in football, basket-

ball, baseball, track, and tennis. Lincoln's basketball team ranked second in theconference in 1926, 1925, and third in 1924. Athletic activity is not limited to

intercollegiate competition by the varsity teams, as an elaborate intra-mural sportprogram is carried out each year.

A fine Christian atmosphere pervades the campus. It manifests itself in theclass-room, on the athletic field, and in student life. Almost every student attendschapel service although attendance is not compulsory. The student body is free

from politics and harmful cliques, and the spirit is delightfully democratic. At Lin-

coln, the student of limited or average means finds himself on a plane with thosemore fortunate.

Among the attractive features of student life at Lincoln are the splendid organ-izations, the Philomathean and Amasagacian societies, literary groups open to bothsexes, which hold regular meetings with programs that are really interesting and worthwhile. The Railsplitter Chib is an organization to which all winners of the varsity

"L" in athletics belong. The Spotlight Club is composed of students in DramaticArt and Public Speaking. Students whose scholastic standing is high are eligible

for membership in the Honor L society. The Young Men's and Young Women'sChristian Associations which are affiliated with state and national organizations,

are active at Lincoln.

At Lincoln, you will find rare opportunities for the development of any talent

you might possess whether it be athletic, musical, forensic, artistic, or literary as expertinstruction is given in all of these lines.

Since 1866, when the college opened its doors to students, it has been perform-ing a service of the very highest value to the community. It has continued unin-terruptedly from that year to this. Hundreds of graduates have left its halls to

bless and benefit the communities in which their lives have fallen; thousands of

students, at one time or another, have moved about its campus; but its greatesthonor and glory is the immortal name it bears—the name of Abraham Lincoln.

MORRIS FAKE'S ANSWERS TO LOVE PROBLEMS AND CETERA

(From the columns of The Imaginary Weekly)

Dear Morris:

I heard Uncle Bob of KYW say the other night that Highways are HappyWays, but they're not the place to play. What did he mean by such a statement?

W. Chrisman Jr.

Ans.

Dear Wayne:He means that it is best to play in your own back yard.

Morris.

Dear Morris:

You know that this is leap year. Well a very beautiful young lady, she is

almost like a dream, proposed to me the other day. I am very much worried andwould like your advice before making an answer.

Yours,

Dick Diers.

Ans.

Dear Mr. Diers:

You are somewhat indefinite. What did she propose, that you join the Salva-

tion Army or the Humane Society? Please elucidate.

Morris Fake.

Dear Mr. Fake:

She proposed matrimony. Please advise.

Dick.

Ans.

Dear Mr. Diers:

My advice is to stop, look and listen before you leap.

Morris.

P. S. Send me the lady's address.

(Still) Morris.

Dear Morris:

I am a tailor, and my best friend has brought me in a suit for divorce. Whatshall I do? Oh, what shall I do?

Jack.

Ans.

Dear Mr. Lanning:

The best thing you can do is to clean and press the suit.

Morris.

Dear Morris:

All the boys and many of the girls call me a "Wop." I am not a "Wop" and

would like to have them stop caling me a "Wop."

Salisci Francisci Janetisci Wodetzki.

Ans.

Dear Miss Francisci Wodetzki:

As this is leap year you might change your name if you can.

Dear Morris;

I can lead cows and horses very well but I have great difficulty in leading yells.

How can I overcome this difficulty?

C. Troster.

Ans.

Dear C. Troster:

Try putting halters on 'em.

Morris.

Dear Morris:

I received the following lines from an aspiring young poet. What do you think

of them? Here 'tis:

Oh young Lochinvar is come out of the yeast

He was the stewed of the studes at the feast

Of all the broads there his broad was the best

All went well until the last

When Loch spilled the soup all over his vest.

Shall I print this verse by the author's request?

Yours,

George.

Ans.

Dear George

:

I would advise you to see the gas or light company to find out if the meter is

all right.

In studying over the lines I find the word "stewed" which seems to convey

the idea that the leading character is intoxicated, and again the word "yeast" which

is a noun, the name of a substance which is used in making such intoxicating bev-

erages as beer, etc. Now, George, in this day and age when our country is dry by

prohibition rather than by lack of precipitation, I would advise that you not publish

the verse in question for it might lead the younger generation, bless their hungry

hearts and innocent souls, into the paths of the unrighteous, and the "Doctor" says

that the paths of the unrighteous are wrong. I would advise that you send the

author to the English department to learn the ideas and ideals of Walt Whitman,for there is a great deal of dirt there that might be used in such compositions as

the foregoing.

Dear Morris:

I am very much in love witli a young lady, but every time I go to see lier and

walk in the front door, her old man throws me out. Please advise.

Yours hopefully,

Schipper.

Ans.

Dear Mr. Schipper:

Try going in the back door.

Dear Morris:

My girl refuses to go riding with me when I drive around in my car. How do

you think I can remedy this?

Senator.

Ans.

Dear Senator:

As you say that your girl refuses to ride in your car, why don't you try a horse

and buggy?

Morris.

Dear Morris:

I met a young man here at this institution whom I like very much, but he

seems very egotistical and is always blowing his own horn. What shall I do?

Jean.

Ans.

Dear Jean

:

I'll bet you a lead dime that the lad is John Temple. The best thing for you

to do is to take Johnny's horn away from him.

Reorganize

College OnJunior Plan

Definite reorganization of Lin-

coln College into a Junior College

was perfected and adopted at a

meeting of the Board of Managersyesterday afternoon. The school

will open in September as a Junior

College after serving as a four

year college since establishment in

1865.

Tentative plans to this effect

were announced some time ago but ;

the course of study and tentative

faculty list are announced for the

first time. Guarantors have agreed

to underwrite the Junior Collegej

nej^t fall and the student body hasbeen practically unanimous in'

working for the new type school,

believing it a step in the future

field of education.

The new curriculum and faculty

has received full recognition fromthe North Central Association of

Colleges and Universities and also

from the University of Illinois.

Registrar Tuttle assisted in outlin-

ing the new curriculum which is

identical to the University of Illi-

nois requisites for Freshmen andSophomore years.

Without sufficient endowment to

conduct ..a four year school along

modern lines, the board was faced

with the problem of discontinuing

the institution or organizing albng

different lines. The Junior College

idea is endorsed by leading edu-

cators of the city, county and state.

Under the junior college plan the

institution will have standardand accredited courses, faculty, li-

brary endowment and income to

carry on in a field which is rap-

idly becoming necessary since

large universities are becomingmore and more exacting of fresh-

Q}^ AWi sophpratom"—.—

.

' It will be the first time in thehistory of the school that all

courses, instructors and facilities

will be fully standardized and ac-

credited.

Courses Are Announced.Courses include: English, his-

tory, education and psychology,foreign language, mathematics,physical and biological science andhome economics. The foregoingcourses complete the six standarddepartments, required by the NorthCentral association for a juniorcollege to be accredited and in ad-dition the department of home eco-nomics which was added for rea-sons peculiar to the local institu-

tion. Registrar Tuttle of the Uni-versity of Illinois has approved thecurriculum which was outlined inconformity with the requirementsof the University of Illinois forfreshman and sophomore years.

The course of study includes ageneral course, pre-engineeringcourse, pre-rhedical course, pre-agricultural course, teachers' courseand home economics course.
