12 K M;M M, MHMMHMM ll MMHM WHY TEACH SCHOOL A Seres of Four Artcle* By C. J. Bery 2. n a prevous artcle spoke of the fnancal compensaton of the teacher and concluded that "fnancally the teachng professon s lookng up." Whle no one need be deterred by fnancal consderatons from enterng the teachng professon there are many and better reasons why teachn? s a desrable vocaton. Let us look at some of the compensatons other than fnancal whch come to the real teacher. There s no other feld where the opportuntes for self mprovement and culture are so good as n ths occupaton. The fve hour day, fve day week and nne month year afford regular perods of lesure for study, travel and recreaton and the ncentves to use ths tme to good advantage are unusually strong and persstent. The daly preparaton whch the teacher makes for hs rectatons and the places of nterest whch he vsts for the sake of ncreasng hs frst hand knowledge of hstory, lterture, art, scence and nature yeld hm a personal beneft and satsfacton whch he could get n no other way. Boards of educaton are begnnng to recognze travel as a valuable supplement to tranng and experence and are allowng for t n ther salary schedule, thus n a measure payng the teacher's travelng expenses. Then there s the self mrovement and growth whch comes from the process of teachng. Self relance, pose, the habt of thoroughly masterng a subject, skll n managng others, leadershp, heart power, all are byproducts belongng to the real teacher whose heart s n hs work. The fact that so many emnent men n the professons of law, medcne and theology prepared for these careers whle teachng s evdence that the lesure tme affords opportuntes for those who have a desre for mprovement. Another recompense of whch we should not loose rght s the poston whch a lve teacher occupes n hs communty.. He comes nto ntmate personal relatonshp wth every famly whch has chldren n school and wth the publc sprted and progressve people whether or not they have chldren. The qualfed teacher s welcome n the socal crcles as well as n the cvc and relgous organzatons of hs communty. A teacher speakng from hs own experence says that when he taught hs frst ""' ' """ school n the country he had the tme of hs lfe. He was taken nto the socal whrl and everybody seemed to want to entertan hm. n fact he was n danger of havng too much "entertanment." A young man or woman of culture, character and ablty, soon becomes the recognzed leader of the communty. Parents consult hm about ther chldren, busness men are glad to have hm n ther organzatons and relgous and socal workers seek hs cooperaton. The names of teachers, prncpals and superntendents found n the lsts of offcers of communty organzatons are evdence of the leadershp and dstncton whch ths class enjoys. One of the great compensatons of teachng s the bond of frendshp and affecton that s wrought by the relatonshp of teacher and pupl. A source of lfe long pleasure to those who delght n the hgher values of lfe. Recently was present at the sesson of a fraternal organzaton wth a man who for years has been a hgh school prncple n that cty. Durng an ntermsson of the program a number of the fnest young men of the cty cowded around my frend. There were among them lawyers, a physcan, and prosperous busness men. A promnent professonal mar at my sde called my attenton to the group and sad, " have a host of young people n ths cty who thnk just as much of hm as those fellows;" and he added wth the rng of sncerty n hs voce. "f could command as large a measure of confdence and affecton, would thnk myself wealthy ndeed." n enumeratng the compensatons of teachng we must not omt from the lst the joy that comes to the teacher because he loves hs work. The satsfacton that comes to hm as he successfully manages hs school, the pleasure he takes n gettng the respect and good wll of hs pupls, the keen delght of assocatng wth the joyous young lfe of the school communty and the prde of achevement are all real joys that brghten the lfe of the successful teacher. The regular perods of lesure affordng the teacher opporuntes for pleasure recreaton and mprovement by study, travel and play; the mental growth and self mprovement that flow out of the daly preparaton and work; the hgh standng n the communty whch s hs to mantan and enjoy; the affecton and respect of hs pupls endurng long after school days have closed; the satsfacton that comes to hm from personal achevement n school management and nstructon and the keen delght "THE EED OF LVG A CHRS- TA LFE THE WORLD AS STRESSER THE DESMOES STUDET VOLUTEER CO- VETO Before we can speak of the need of lvng a Chrstan lfe n the world we must try to catch a vson of the world n whch we are lvng, of whch we are a part. Probably frst and uppermost of all the world needs emphaszed at the conventon was that of a unted world, and the varous speakers dscussed the many phases of ths need. n hs openng address, Dr. John R. Mott sad, "We are lvng n an exhausted and over wrought world; a world whch s torn and embttered by war; n whch every naton whch was at war and many neutral countres have experenced dstnct dvson and separaton of classes so that there s not only enmty and strfe between natons but wthn natons as well. Our world s stll sorrowng and sufferng; t s confused and bewldered t s humbled and blnded, yet hopeful n seekng the way out. The one ray of hope comes n the fact that the world s more plastc than t has ever been known to be before and ths fact brngs before us the queston n what molds s ths plastc world to set? There are a few of the world condtons whch brng a new challenge, a fresh commsson, to the Chrstans n the world. Bshop MacDowell sad, "Wth the natons of the world so badly torn t s dffcult to unte ether because we do not have the rght bass or because we have not accepted the rght bass. Peace has ether been forced by arms or for selfsh purposes. The natons cannot get together around cannon, around commerce, or around forms of government. There s but one way and that s to gather about Jesus of azareth whose authorty s not commandng but persuasve Jesus, who (Contnued on page ) So here's to you lades of Wllams Hall, The farest and sweetest grs of all. May you always be true to yourselves and your frends, And may the gods ntercede to further your ends. of workng wth the young people and watchng ther natve abltes develop under hs gudng hand are some of the compensatons that make teachng a worth whle occupaton. ^(.. ll tlllllllollllllllllll! lll>lllllllllllll«mllllllll>llllllll<>lll>llllll<>>ll>> ll > tl llllltlllll tllll>l>lll(>l >ll>ll>llllllllll>l>aaa< tlaa^

POSTO WHO'S WHO (Contnued from page 7) The Book and Motor Socety s composed of the honor students of B. G.. C. n 94, just before the frst class graduated, Mr. Wnslow, at that tme Head of the ndustral Arts Department, proposed that an organzaton be formed of the ablest students. Certan members of the faculty who were nterested n the effort joned and arranged a system by whch a small number of the nstructors mght always be numbered among the members of Book and Motor. The emblem of the Socety s tself an explanaton of ts purpose. The book represents academc ablty; the motor, actve partcpaton n general actvtes.

Hesser head of the musc department of the Bowlng Green State ormal College, has accepted the poston of supervsor of musc n the publc schools of Albany, ew York. Mr. Hesser has been wth us ever snce the college was opened n September, 94. He s one of those professors who makes students feel they want to come back to Bowl- Green and when they return he greets them wth a cordal welcome. He s also a man who has made many frends n the communty by hs genal manner and pleasng personalty. The annual May Festval, as t has been developed under the drecton of Mr. Hesser, s among the greatest of hs servces to Bowlng Green, and, there has probably been no other enterprse whch has done more to unte the communty and college n common nterests than the collegecommunty chorus whch furnshes one of the concerts durng the Festval each year. Before comng to Bowlng Green, Mr. Hesser had been supervsor of musc n the schools of some of the promnent ctes of the mddle West and far West. ow he s returnng to ths feld of work whch he has found most pleasant and the faculty, students, and communty jon n wshng hm the best of success and happness n hs new work.

A- merca has always been a land of mmgrants and owes what she s to our mmgrant ancestors. However, there are many n our great country today who need to be taught lessons of Amercanzaton. We owe them more than our language, dressng them n our clothes and vettng them to lve n our way. They need to make those Chrstan prncples whch are the foundaton of our natonal lfe a part of ther own lves. The best way we have of teachng these lessons s lvng the Chrstan lfe our selves. But ths sphere of servce s stll too lmted, for Chrst's command was "Go ye nto all the world and preach the gospel unto every naton." And, wth constant growth n the Chrstan lfe and servce there should be many more wlo would hear arl heed ths world call to servce. We must not Beetle down n our one tftle- crcle and cease tu grow but our sphere of servce must be contstaot'y enlargng. ' Dr. Truat from Texas sad that the bg problem before us as you? people and students today s "ntt makng a lvng but makng a lfe.' There re some thngs, some deals n ths lfe whch are worth dyng for surely they are worth lvng for. The motve of our lfe s absolutely vtal. Shall our motves be selfshness or egotsm whch leads ndvduals as well as natons to certan doom? The altrusc motve would be better, but t s not adequate. "The one true motve of the Chrstan lfe s servce n our own generaton by the wll of God." Agan, n the words of Dr. Sherwood Eddy we are confronted wth the queston, "What s ths rag tme, jazss generaton gong to do? Wll you s*ct off the sde-lnes of crtcsm and get nto the game? f you're n the pame you won't have tme to crtcze. f you should ever have eause to wonder whether -:r not Chrstanty has faled remember ths the trouble s'nt wth God, the lovng Father or wth the lvng Chrst, t s rather wth you because you do not know Hm and refuse to be used by Hm. The call to duty s a personal call. Let us then draw closer to our Master and yeld our lves to Hm. "The best rose-bush, after all, s not that whch has the fewest thorns, but that whch bears the fnest roses." THE EED OF LVG (Contnued from page 9) would be greatest must become servant of all. But the queston arses, "What knd of a world ought the world of God to be?" and Robert E. Speer answered that queston n ths way. "The world of God ought to be the knd of a world n whch the prncples of cooperaton take the place of all prncples of envy rnd strfe an btter rvalry. t ought to be a world where the bonds of unon bnd across all fssures and gulfs wthn and among the natons of men. "t ought to be the knd of a world where the value of persons s supreme and all thngs take on a new value. t ought to be a world n whch, nstead of prncples contendng aganst prncples, the ndvdual aganst socety, the naton aganst humanty, all these are gathered up nto one great correlaton and we realze that the whole lfe of man s the lfe and nterest of Chrst. The problem that confronts us as Chrstans for soluton and forces us to examne our own lves s "What are we dong wth our lves?" Are we hoardng our ablty and educaton as a mser hoardes hs money? Or, are v/e wastng our lves foolshly as the spendthrft wastes hs means? Let us thnk of our lves a3 trusteeshps gven by God..nd then ask ourselves f we are fathfully dong our duty. t s not enough to be talented we must use our talents n servce. But how broad and vague the word servce may seem! We naturally wonder n what feld or sphere we are expected to serve. The frst and nearest feld for servce s the home and t s the duty of every Chrstan to say " am my brother's keeper." As Mrs. Sherwood Eddv sad, "The Chrstan homes of Amerca are makng the greatest mpresson on our foreen neghbor".. Preachng s not what s wanted n the homes but real Chrstan lfe and acton are necessary for we are beng watc' ed contnually." Her plea was for the openng of our hearts and homes to these foregners wthn our gates. We cannot and must not be selfsh n the Chrstan lfe.

Durng ths perod assocatons are formed, common nterests are developed, and loyalty to one's Alma Mater s engendered. To prepetuate these nfluences of college lfe s a problem well worth the combned effort of the college and ts alumn and former students. Clubs, class reunons, general and local alumn assocatons, dnners and banquets, and college newspapers are some of the agences that are beng used for ths purpose. These socetes and occasonal meetngs promote good fellowshp and revve memores of the happy assocatons of student days. They may, and often do, perform a valuable publcty servce to the college. The ormal College s begnnng to proft from the fact that ts graduates and former students are well dstrbuted over ts terrtory. t would be very unusual to fnd a group of young people anywhere n orthwestern Oho today n whch there would not be several who had at sometme attended the ormal College. The effect of ths dstrbuton s already qute apparent n the enrollment of new students. But outsde of a few places, the valuable assstance whch has come from ths source has been largely ndvdual. We do not mean to undervalue the mportance of ndvdual effort. n matter of nterestng prospectve students, t s more effectve than the loosely federated group because t s drect and personal. But t must not be forgotten that organzatons are potent agences for stmulatng ndvdual nterest and effort. They, too, could well employ ther forces for ncreasng attendance, and ths s especally true n the case of a school for the tranng of professonal workers. As these socetes become large enough, they could easly assst n the support of poor but promsng students. Certanly, ths would be a most commendable undertakng. The graduates lvng or employed n Toledo have gven us an excellent object-lesson n the way of an alumnal socety. Ths socety has afforded ts members delghtful socal advantages, and t has rendered the College splendd servce n plannng and carryng out the luncheons and dnners, whch we have all so thoroughly enjoyed, n connecton wth the Fall meetngs of the orthwestern Oho Teachers Assocaton. The Toledo organzaton has had the advantage of a suffcently large number of graduates to draw upon, but condtons are now favorable n many other places for successful socetes, and we hope by next Fall to see flourshng organzatons n every cty and county n our terrtory. Pcncs and dnners could be planned n connecton wth teachers' nsttutes, or wherever a group of tj'chers ere brought together. The announcement of socal functons and the demonstratons attendng them would furnsh opportuntes for attractng favorable notce to te College. We can thnk of no better tme for launchng these organztnns than the next summer term. The faculty wll heartly cooperate n such a movement. So, let us set as our goal for ths summer at least one enthusastc socety of ormal College students n every county of orthwestern Oho. Talk t up, and perfect an organzaton among the students of each county before County Rally Day next term. HARK FROM THE TOMBS! Lura W. Calln B. L. 0. W. U. '82 B. S. E. B. G.. C.

20 H MMM. M H; Ml M (OM M MMMHMMMMHMMM.«. M ; THE GOD OF AOTHER CHACE t was a cold, wndy December day. A heavy snow was fallng, changng the long rows of cars n the Ere freght yards n Maron nto grotesque and beautful fgures. A very cold and hungry lad was sneakng among the cars tryng to fnd an open one, where he could fnd shelter from the storm. Glancng around,he notced on one of the cars ths advertsement, "Uneeda-Bscut." "God only knows that need somethng," he murmured. As he approached the car, he hestated, sayng half aloud, " know t s a pentenary offense to break the seals on ths car, but can't stand these pangs of hunger any longer. Oh! f someone would only gve me a fghtng chance! He reacled for the small twsted wre that sealed the lock on the car. "Oh can't, he cred, as he drew back hs hand. Lookng upward, he added, "But must." "Oh Mother! Can't you see? 'm so hungry " t was an easy matter for hm to break the small wre. He pred the door open and quckly entered the car. As he was openng one of the small wooden boxes that contaned the bscuts, the nose attracted the attenon of a yard detectve who was passng the car. "You thef! 've caught you ths tme," exclamed the detectve as he dragged the lad from the car. " was starvng and only dd t to save my lfe," sobbed the boy. "That's the same old gag. Come along and shed your tears n the court room." The detectve hurred the lad to the Juvenle Court whch was about three blocks from the Ere Yards. They entered the buldng and were soon standng before the Judge, a knd, frendly man, who was always wllng to gve the boys a chance. "He broke the seal on one of the cars n the yards and was n the act of stealng, when dscovered hm. He deserves a good long sentence for that," sad the detectve, as he bowed and left the room. EETTER RURAL LFE The County Lfe Club has made a ht and scored a run. The Cub has taken the ntatve n what wll lkely prove the greatest sngle agency for the promoton of the nterest of the College yet naugurated by the student body. Long lfe and glory be to the County Lfe Club and ts recent achevement. t s emnently fttng and proper that ths Club should do somethng worth whle, for no nterest wll n tme receve greater beneft from te College than our rural communtes. The traned teachers wll do much to develop and mprove our rural lfe and restore t to ts ancent prestge. We are now comng to realze and apprecate more keenly than ever before the hgh place the country and country lfe are occupyng n our economc lfe. The war has taught us that agrculture s the fundamental ndustry ef all ndustres, and that as t langushes all wll langush. The farmer* are comng to realze that no class of men can lve unto themselves alone. He s seeng a new lght, has had a larger vson of duty. He must assume the reponsblty Of producng suffcent food not only for hs own but for the ml- lon tolers n mnes, mlls, and factores, who are workng for hm. t s the busness of agrculture to feed and to feed well these tolng mllons who are contrbutng so materally to our happness and welfare. The farmer s ready to assume ths hgh task, but ths demands an ncrease producton per acre by more ntellgent methods scentfc agrculture. The best way to help the farmer to measure up to hs hgh responsblty s the establshment of a centralzed system of schools whose hgh school wll place due emphass on agrculture. The possbltes of agrculture n our rural hgh schools are beyond measure. Ths leads me to merely state,, wth no tme to elaborate, one of the most profounded and far-reachng educatonal problems of the day. How can we make more effcent the rural schools n whch mllons of our boys and grls wll receve all ther educaton. The possbltes of the Country Lfe Club are great. Your task les before you. Seze t wth a vson of ts vast opportunty and wth a courageous heart. Go nto all orthwestern Oho and teach the gospel of a better rural lfe to every man, woman and chld. John W. Zeller. -- THE GOD OF AOTHER CHACE The Judge turned to the boy who was standng wth dropng head to hde hs shame covered face. "What s your name?" "George Devan," the lad answered frankly. "Where s your home?" " haven't any." "Are your parents lvng?" "My father s lvng." "Where does he lve?" "At Columbus, Oho." "Come over here, George, "the Judge sad n a knd voce. The lad quckly obeyed.

22 g, n mrn »" ' mm* mumwmhw MM MM M HmmmnmmmmmnM t * ATHLETCS PAST, PRESET, AD FUTURE n the year 94-5 there were no athletcs at B. G.. C. At that tme, College was held n the Armory buldng on East Wooster street. t s perhaps needless to say that there were few students, and of course, few men students. But n the year followng we had a farly successful basket ball team, our team wnnng more than half ts games. The College was also well represented n the years 97-8; Baseball was ntroduced n the season of 98 and has snce been one of the College's major sports. We have never had a wonderful baseball team, owng to the fact that a good baseball team must consst of nne good athletes, and t s a hard proposton to form a good baseball nne out of a male student body of about thrty-fve. But we have a fghtng team ths year as anyone can testfy who saw the nnth nnng rally n the game wth Bluffton at home. Ths game was featured by heavy httng on both sdes, Baker of B. G. httng a double and two trpes, and Clucas makng the frst home run on the home grounds. Bluffton was badly worred n the nnth and had good reason to be, but ther lead was too great for us to wn the contest. Football made ts debut at the College last Fall and bds far to become one of the major sports at B. G.. C. Most of the men were nexperenced n the art of playng football but notwthstandng that, we made a good record, consderng the fact that Defance, Toledo U., and Ypslant have been represented by a football eleven for several seasons. The three games played were for the great majorty of our men, the frst game they had ever played Each man seemed to have that old tme "DRVE" that s needed n every game of football. Coach Sttt of Case, who coached our team last Fall s to be congratulated for hs efforts, and t s hoped that he wll be wth us next year. Several stars from last years B. G. H. S. eleven wll be wth us, and wth most of our men back next year, we should be contenders for the orthwestern Oho Collegate League champonshp. "There s no game lke football," capable of exctng enthusasm over athletcs n general and good College sprt. A good football and a successful season wll brng more men and be a better advertsement to the College than anythng that can be conceved. Captan Clucas wll be wth us next year, and wll be the nucleus of the eleven. We had a farly successful basketball season ths year. But n ths branch of athletcs we are forced to play teams representng larger nsttutons because, as the scores reveal, our sster college, Kent, s far far below us n athletc ablty. Basketball s a strenuous game and many tmes the players do not receve the commendaton they deserve. Ths apples to our noble second team. They were on the job every evenng for practce, and deserve as much prase as the Varsty receves. f a college does not have a good second team, t has a poor Varsty, for the frst team s never any better than the second team makes t. t s the strng men who receve all the knocks n whppng the Varsty nto shape, but usually do not receve the credt that they deserve. We should have a wonderful basket ball team next year, for nearly all of the local hgh school's term wll be wth us. And, by the way, B. G. H. S. won the Trolley League Champonshp n basket ball last year. We haven't been very successful n tenns ths year, but the men are workng hard and tryng to do ther best. The courts have been n bad shape ths year, owng to our nablty to get help n smoothng them up. ever has B. G.. C. seen so much nterest shown n tenns as t has ths year. One has to get on the courts very early n the mornng or mmedately after dnner at nght, f he expects to get a chance to play at all. B. G.. C. s a growng nsttuton and s bound to hold ts own n the future as t s dong at present. Track wll be added to the lst of sports as soon as we get our athletc feld n shape. At present, there s not enough demand for feld events to secure the necessary feld and track equpment, for the men. Studens! when you go to your homes, boost B. G.. C. Tell the recent hgh school graduates of the advantages that the nsttuton affords them. Tell them that they are able to receve a better course n educaton here than n any other college, and n addton can secure two full years of straght "Fne Arts" work, f they so desre. Let us make the year a banner year, not only from an athletc but from a scholastc standpont as well. The God of Another Chance (Contnued from page 7) the Judge as he rased the lad's head and looked nto the frank blue eyes. "My mother was an nvald for many years. She was always patent, knd and cheerful. She was lke an angel n our home. worshped her. But one day God took her from us. n less than a year after my santed mother ded, my father brought a step-mother nto our home. could not bear to see ths wordly creature n my beloved mother's place. resented her comng. had a quarrel wth my father. He drove me from hs home wthout a cent of money. " have been tryng ever snce to fnd work n Columbus, but have been unsuccessful. " tred to beg food. was refused. was cold and hungry. boarded a freght and was carred nto Maron. wandered to the Ere freght yards. was tryng to fnd an open car nto whch could crawl, thnkng that, perrars, f was-sheltered from the storm, would fall asleep and forget about my hunger. saw the car marked, "Uneeda-Bscut," was so hungry, that the suggeston was too much for me know t was wrong. dd t because was nsane from hunger. am honest. f can secure work, wll pay for the damage done." As the lad fnshed, the Judge glanced at an open book on hs desk and slently read. "A man named Peter stumbled bad, Lost all the love, he ever had, Fouled hs own soul's dvnest sprng, Cursed, swore and all that sort of thng, He got another chance, and then Reached the far goal of God-lke-men. "Your boy goes wrong the same as he Who fed swne n the far country, He seems beyond the utmost reach Of hearts that pray, of lps that preach. Gve hjm another chance and see, How beautful hs lfe may be." The Judge.looked up wth tears n hs eyes, and wth a tremblng voce sad, " beleve you, George. wll gve you another chance. What can you do?" " have never done much work, but am wllng to learn, the lad repled. The Judge secured for hm a poston as an offce boy, n the Maron Steam Shovel Plant. That has been ten years ago. f you vst a certan plant today you wll fnd Gorge Devan, foreman, and ths motto s above hs bench, "The God of Another Chance."
