FOREWORD 


The  Young  Women's  Christian  Associa- 
tion and  the  Young  Men's  Christian  Asso- 
ciation of  Maryville  College  offer  you  who 
are  coming  to  old  College  Hill  for  the  first 
time,  and  to  those  of  you  who  have  been 
here  before,  this  Handbook  as  a  guide  and 
counselor  for  your  condxict  and  needs  while 
in    Maryville. 

This  book  cannot  be  expected  to  ba  com- 
plete. It  is  only  an  attempt  to  give  an 
index,  or  better,  a  key,  to  Maryville  men 
and  women  in  general,  Freshmen  in  particu- 
lar, with  which  they  can  open  the  doors  of 
learning  and  experience  that  confront  them; 
so  it  is,  with  earnest  apologies  for  mistakes 
of  omission  and  commission  and  with  thanks 
for  the  sincere  aid  received,  that  this  key 
is  put  in  the  hands  of  Maryville  men  and 
women.

PRESIDENT  WILSON'S   MESSAGE 

"The  Maryville  spirit,"  compounded  riclily 
of  sympathy,  scholarship,  spiritualitJ^  and 
service,  owes  its  existence  to  the  century 
long  and  united  efforts  of  the  Maryville  fac- 
ulty and  the  Maryville  students.  Many  thou- 
sands of  Maryvillians  have  made  their  loyal 
contributions  to  the  formation  and  perpet- 
uation of  this  historic  and  characteristic 
product    of    Maryville    College. 

Among  the  most  influential  and  earnest 
contributors  to  the  making  and  keeping  of 
this  Maryville  spirit,  I  am  happy  to  testify 
that  the  Y.  M.  C.  A.  and  the  Y.  W,  C.  A. 
have  deservedly  won  high  standing.  For 
forty-six  years  and  thirty-five  years,  re- 
spectively, they  have  rendered  their  con- 
structive   and    generous   service. 

Among  their  many  contributions  of  serv- 
ice to  the  new  students,  the  Y's  issue  at  a 
considerable  expense,  this  nineteenth  Mary- 
ville College  Handbook.  The  new  students 
will  greatly  appreciate  the  handbook  and 
will  profit   largely   by   it. 

To  all  the  new  students  I  very  heartily 
commend  the  work,  the  privileges,  and  op- 
portunities for  service  of  the  Y's;  and  all 
the  members  of  the  faculty  unite  with  me  in 
expressing  the  hope  that  the  welcome  ac- 
cessions of  faithful  workers  from  the  body 
of  new  students  will,  this  year,  lift  the  as- 
sociations to  the  highest  position  of  useful- 
ness  and   prosperity   thus   far   attained.

GETTING    STARTED 

1.  From    Knoxville    to    Maryville: 

When  you  arrive  in  Knoxville,  inquire 
at  the  information  bureau  as  to  the  time 
that  the  train  or  bus  leaves.  If  the  train 
does  not  leave  as  soon  as  you  would  like 
to  come  to  Maryville,  you  are  sure  to  find 
a  bus  leaving  at  almost  any  time.  To  get 
the  bus,  leave  the  Southern  station,  and  go 
over  the  viaduct,  and  back  down  Gay  street 
one  block  past  the  Holston  National  Bank 
building.  If  you  are  at  the  L.  &  N.  sta- 
tion follow  the  car  line  to  Gay  street,  and 
then  turn  to  the  right.  Even  if  you  come 
on  the  bus,  it  would  be  well  for  j'ou  to  buy 
your  ticket  all  the  way  through  in  order 
that  your  baggage  may  be  checked  and  out 
of  your  way,  for  it  is  cheaper  for  you  to 
check  your  baggage  over  than  to  send  it  by 
express.  When  you  arrive  in  Maryville,  give 
j-our  baggage  check  to  the  college  truckman, 
for  the  college  handles  all  luggage  free. 
There  will  be  some  T.  M.  or  Y.  W.  recep- 
tion committeemen  to  meet  you.  These 
committeemen  serve  as  "walking  informa- 
tion," so  ask  them  all  your  questions.  They 
will  lead  you  to  the  dormitory  you  have 
signed    for. 

Get    your    key    and    hold    to    it.       A    good 
start     means     a     great     deal.       The     student 
body    welcomes    you    to   Maryville. 
11 


2,  Matriculation: 

Early  arrival  in  Maryville  is  invariably  a 
means  of  getting  more  comfortably  started 
than  otherwise.  All  freshmen  should,  if  pos- 
sible, arrive  by  the  afternoon  of  Monday, 
September  10.  Registration  and  matricula- 
tion begin  Tuesday,  September  11,  and  the 
sooner  it  is  out  of  the  way  the  better.  First, 
follow  the  crowd  to  Anderson  Hall,  and  see 
the  registrar  to  get  your  registration  cards 
and  a  copy  of  the  schedule  of  classes.  Then 
make  out  j'our  schedule  with  the  help  of 
some  member  of  the  faculty  -who  will  be 
there  to  help  you.  After  this,  return  your 
cards  to  the  Registrar's  office  where  they 
will  be  signed  for  you.  This  done,  carry 
your  card  (hold  to  that  card  forever)  to 
the  Treasurer  and  pay  your  bills.  By  this 
time  you  will  begin  to  wonder  if  you  are 
ever  going  to  be  through  with  this  job,  but 
don't  quit,  for  there  is  3'et  one  thing  to 
be  done.  Go  to  the  book  room,  which  is 
also  on  the  first  floor  of  Anderson  Hall, 
and  get  your  books,  but  don't  forget  that 
you  are  to  have  that  card.  If  you  live 
through  this,  you  will  be  well  qualified  for 
the   semester's   work  which   lies   before   j'^ou. 

3.  Opening   Social  Events: 

How  to  begin  a  year,  especially  at  a  new- 
place,    is    often    a    question.      At    Maryville, 

12 


however,  if  you  will  let  it,  the  stream  of 
entertainment  afforded  by  the  various  organ- 
izations will  carry  you  over  the  time  of 
newness  until  the  time  when  you  are  ac- 
quainted with  most  of  the  places  and  many 
of  the  people.  Of  course  there  are  innu- 
merable informal  receptions  at  the  train, 
and    after   you    have    arrived    on    the    Hill. 

The  two  girls'  literary  societies,  Bainonian 
and  Theta  Epsilon,  have  their  receptions  to- 
gether, usually  around  a  big  camp  fire  in 
the  college  woods.  The  boys'  societies  like- 
wise have  theirs,  which  are  equal  to  that  of 
the    girls. 

Don't  miss  the  faculty  reception.  After 
you  have  run  the  gauntlet  of  the  faculty 
line,  suffering  your  hand  to  be  wrung  by 
one  professor  and  then  handed  on  to  the 
next  one  to  be  treated  in  a  similar  manner, 
you  will  come  out  smiling  that  you  have 
won  your  freedom  and  are  ready  for  the 
refreshments. 

The  Y.  W.  C.  A.  has  its  reception  on  Bald- 
win lawn,  and  has  pl»nty  of  eats  and  a 
well-planned  affair.  The  boys  go  to  the 
woods  with  the  Y.  M.  C.  A.  to  cook  bacon 
and  meet  each  other.  Then  there  is  the 
Y.  W.   hike  as  well  as  that  of  the  Y.   M. 

If  you  miss  those  opening  social  events 
you  will  have  left  out  one  of  the  most  im- 
portant things   of  the  year. 

13 


MAIL     SERVICE 

Bells  of  duty  may  not  sound  so  pleasant, 
but  that  mail  bell  rings  even  more  merrily 
than  the  dinner  bell.  Be  sure  to  tell  your 
friends    to    address    your    mail    carefully,    as 

follows:  "Mr.  Bob  Wire,  Carnegie  Hall, 

College  Station,  Maryville,  Tenn."  If  you 
room  in  town,  and  wish  to  get  your  mail  at 
the  college  post  office,  use  only  "College 
Station."  Outgoing  mail  is  collected  from 
boxes  in  the  dormitories  every  morning  and 
afternoon.  Remember  that  the  college  has 
Uncle  Sam's  mail  service  down  pat,  and 
that  you  will  receive  the  best  of  attention 
from  the  mailing  of  letters  to  the  receiving 
and  sending  (?)  of  those  good  boxes  of  eats. 
Be  sure  to  warn  the  people  at  home  not  to 
forget    to    send    an    occasional    box.

FRIENDLY    HINTS 

Get  to   Maryville   on   time. 

Smile  when  the  old  students  meet  you  at 
the  train.  They  want  to  help  you,  and  cul- 
tivate your  friendship,  but  do  not  expect 
them  to  g-o  all  the  way,  for  you,  too,  must 
show   a   friendly   disposition. 

Become  familiar  with  the  rules  of  the 
colleg-e.  You  will  be  furnished  with  a  copy 
at  some  time  during  the  first  week,  and  are 
held   responsible   for   them. 

If  you  are  rooming  in  the  dormitory,  don't 
let  the  former  occupant  of  the  room  sell  you 
the  radiator  or  the  roller  curtains.  They 
come  with   the  room. 

Don't  let  the  noise  in  the  dining  room 
take  your  appetite,  for  there  is  sure  to  be 
some  noise  when  seven  hundred  students  are 
in    one    room. 

Reading  or  studying  in  chapel  is  not  only 
poor  manners,  but  is  not  in  keeping  with  the 
chapel  service. 

If  you  are  entering  Maryville  with  a  cir- 
cle of  friends,  don't  confine  yourself  to  this 
group.  Get  acquainted  with  as  many  of 
your  fellow-students  as  possible. 

Maryville  is  no  place  for  the  snob.  Such 
people,  if  they  come,  do  one  of  three  things: 
leave  for  more  hospitable  surroundings,   lose 

16 


their  snobbishness,  or  remain  outside  the 
real   life    of   the   college. 

Don't  be  discourag-ed  if  you  fail  to  attract 
the  attention  of  the  whole  college  in  the  first 
few  weeks.  It  takes  time  and  hard  work 
to  win  Maryville's  places  of  honor.  You 
take  a  roundabout  way  by  seeking  notoriety. 
If  you  are  a  world-beater,  don't  tell  every- 
one about  it.  You  would  have  to  prove  it, 
and  the  college  will  find  it  out  in  time 
anyway. 

Remember  the  students  who  command 
the  widest  respect  are  those  who  put  .  the 
college  first,  then  classes,  then  social  af- 
fairs. Don't  get  the  order  mixed  or  allow 
anyone    to    confuse   it   for  you. 

Don't  let  your  juvenile  reading  determine 
your  ideas  about  temptations  in  college.  If 
your  bringing  up  does  not  square  with  cer- 
tain things  you  will  find  in  your  new  en- 
vironment, you  need  not  therefore  change 
your  principles.  You  will  not  even  be  urged 
to  change  them,  if  you  let  your  friends 
know  in  a  straightforward  way  that  your 
ideas  of  right  and  wrong  are  definite,  and 
that  you  intend  to  live  by  them.  Don't  get 
your  backbone  confuse.d  with  your  wish- 
bone. 

First,  last,  and  always  remember  that  you 
wnll    get    out    of    your    college    life    exactly 

17 


what  you  put  in.  Give  a  minimum  of  time 
and  energy  to  your  work,  and  you  will  get 
minimum  results.  Give  a  part  of  yourself 
to  some  phase  of  the  life  of  your  college, 
and  you  will  receive  in  return  what  has 
been  prized  by  many  generations  of  Mary- 
ville  men  and  women  before  you,  the  rec- 
ognition of  the  college.  You  have  presum- 
ably four  years  at  Maryville  to  do  as  you 
please.  You  can  get  no  more  lasting  sat- 
isfaction out  of  that  period  of  time  than 
by  doing  your  bit,  whatever  it  may  be,  to- 
ward leaving  Maryville,  when  you  graduate, 
a  little  better  than  it  was  when  you  entered. 


BEING  COLLEGE  BRED  DOBS  NOT  MEAN 

A   FOUR   YEARS'    LOAF 

18 


TO    THE    6IBLS 

What  is  it  like  at  Maryville?  What  shall 
I  take  with  me?  Doubtless  you  have  asked 
yourself  these  two  questions  many  times 
since  you  finally  chose  Maryville  for  your 
Alma  Mater.  You  are  probably  "up  to  your 
ears"  in  sewing,  while  you  are  making  plans 
and  dreaming  dreams  of  what  college  life 
is.  For  this  reason  we  are  writing  this  to 
tell  you  a  little  of  what  to  expect  in  Mary- 
ville. 

To  begin  with,  the  dormitory  rooms  are 
furnished  with  a  study  table,  two  chairs, 
a  dresser,  washstand,  and  either  a  double- 
decker  or  two  single  beds.  These  few  things, 
plus  curtains,  dresser  scarfs,  pillows,  bed 
sets,  pennants,  pictures,  etc.,  of  your  own 
bringing,  w^ill  make  up  a  very  attractive 
room,   of   the   regular  college-girl   type. 

As  for  clothes,  make  most  of  them  suit- 
able for  school  wear,  because  this  kind  of 
clothing  Is  what  is  worn  here  more  than 
anything  else.  Besides,  you  will  want  to 
come  prepared  for  swimming  and  for  "gym," 
and  a  pair  of  knickers  or  riding  trousers 
would   come   in  mighty   handy   for  hikes. 

We  have  study  hour  every  night  but  Sat- 
urday, and  then,  after  literary  society,  we 
have  our  feeds  and  other  jolly  times,  so 
don't     forget     to     pack     a    few    old     dishes, 

19 


spoons,  etc.,  away  with  your  other  things. 
and  I'm  fairly  certain  that  a  chafing  dish, 
if  you  have  one,  would  not  rust  from  dis- 
use  at   Maryville. 

There  is  a  limit,  naturally,  upon  the  num^ 
ber  of  times  that  you  may  go  to  the  show 
or  to  town,  but  as  a  rule,  these  regulations 
do  not  bother  Maryville  girls,  for  if  you  be 
athletic,  you  may  always  swim  or  play  ten- 
nis, and  if  you  be  more  studious,  there  is 
the  library  or  the  Y.  W.  C.  A.  reading  room 
with  its  magazines,  victrola  and  comfortable 
davenports. 

You  may  "moonshine"  (that  is,  you  may 
be  with  the  boys)  every  day  except  Sunday 
from  after  dinner  until  1:10  when  the  aft- 
ernoon classes  begin.  As  Monday  is  our 
holiday,  that  afternoon  from  1:30  till  4:30 
ia  reserved  for  moonshine  privileges.  To 
church  on  Sunday  mornings,  to  ball  games, 
snaps,  socials  and  functions  in  the  chapel, 
you   may   also   bring  an   escort. 

Maryville  will  be,  for  nine  months,  your 
home.  We  hope  that  you  will  find  it  a 
very  happy   and    satisfactory    one.

ADVICE    TO    THE    NEW   MEN 

You  are  now  a  college  man.  The  long 
anticipated  experience  has  begun.  Hence- 
forth, you  constitute  one  among  that  two 
per  cent  of  the  nation's  youth  who  have  the 
opportunity  to  attend  college.  The  respon- 
sibility is  a  big  one.  How  will  you  meet 
it?  The  next  four  years  will  be  what  you 
make  them.  Plan  your  course  and  follow  it. 
Resolve  to  carry  out  what  you  resolve  to  do. 

A  Strong  Body 

A  primary  requisite  to  the  highest  effi- 
ciency in  life  is  a  strong  body.  Now  is  the 
time  to  cultivate  it.  Don't  be  satisfied 
merely  to  be  well.  Lay  up  a  reserve  of 
physical  strength  upon  which  you  can  call 
in  emergencies.  By  all  means  get  into  ath- 
letics. If  you  should  never  attain  more 
than  the  rank  of  the  lowest  scrub,  the  ex- 
perience would  be  worth  the  effort.  Go  out 
for  everything  possible;  be  good  in  at  least 
one   sport. 

Your  body  is  a  more  priceless  treasure,  a 
more  wonderful  device,  than  anything  man 
can  create.  Preserve  It.  Beware  of  the 
candy  or  soft  drink  habit.  Treat  yourself 
to  sweat-producing  exercise  and  a  bath  once 
each   day. 

21 


studies 

A  good  idea  to  throw  away  is  tlie  old  fear 
of  letting  one's  studies  interfere  with  his 
college  education.  One  of  the  saddest  and 
most  frequent  comments  of  the  older  stu- 
dents and  graduates  is  "If  I  had  only  stud- 
ied." Learn  to  know  the  joys  of  solving 
the  perplexities  of  "Trig,"  of  tracing  out 
the  hidden  mysteries  of  Chemistry,  of  mas- 
tering the  intricacies  of  "prose  style."  The 
most  valuable  habit  you  can  perform,  in  the 
opinion  of  the  writer,  is  the  habit  of  doing 
your  level  best  in  each  day's  work,  of  mas- 
tering each  step   as  it  comes. 

It  is  also  wise  to  study  how  best  you 
can  study,  A  copy  of  Whipple's  "How  to 
Study"  can  be  found  in  the  college  library, 
and  will  give  you  some  helpful  directions 
as  to  the  most  efficient  methods.  Finally, 
cultivate  with  unremitting  assiduity  the 
habit  of  concentration,  of  doing  each  bit 
of  work  with  all  your  energy  directed  upon 
it. 

Friendship 

By  far  the  most  important  by-product  of 
college  life  is  friendship.  Before  the  year  is 
over  you  should  know  every  student  at  least 
by  name.  In  the  meantime,  it  is  well  for 
you  to  remember  that  you  do  not  have  to 
know  a  fellow's  name  in  order  to  greet  him 
22  ■ 


as  you  pass.  Only  one  rule  for  forming 
friendships  can  be  given,  and  it  must  be 
practiced:  "To  be  a  friend  a  man  must  show 
himself    friendly." 

Permanent    Values 

The  fact  should  always  be  kept  in  mind 
that  in  college  you  are  to  decide  upon  the 
truly  important  things  of  life.  Here  you 
will  learn  to  discriminate — to  choose  be- 
tween the  many  interests  competing  for  your 
attention.  The  doors  of  the  church  will 
be  open  to  you,  the  Christian  Association 
will  welcome  you,  the  companionship  of  men 
and  women  who  walk  daily  with  the  Friend 
of  friends  will  be  yours.  It  will  remain  for 
you  to  decide  if  you  will  avail  yourself  of 
these  biggest  things.  At  Maryville  you  will 
find  opportunity  not  only  to  develop  your- 
self physically,  mentally  and  socially,  but 
also  to  satisfy  that  most  vital  need  and 
longing  in  every  human  heart — the  yearn- 
ing for  spiritual  growth.  The  response  to 
these   opportunities   will   rest  with   you.

THE  PARABLE    OF  THE   GOOD  SAMARI- 
TAN IN  COLLEGE 

Did  you  ever  hear  the  parable  of  the  Good 
Samaritan  in   an    American   College? 

A  certain  Freshman  came  down  from  home 
into  college,  and  she  fell  among  critics  who 
said  that  her  clothes  didn't  fit  and  that  she 
was  not  stylish,  and  her  personality  was 
unfortunate,  and  they  robbed  her  of  her 
self-confidence  and  her  enthusiasm,  and  de- 
parted, leaving  her  sick  and  sore  at  heart 
and  half  dead.  And  by  chance  a  certain 
Junior  passed  her  way,  and  when  she  saw 
her,  she  said,  "What  a  good  job  those 
Sophomore  critics  did,"  and  she  passed  by 
on  the  other  side.  And  a  certain  Senior 
came  that  way,  and  she  said,  "Yea,  verily, 
for  she  hadn't  the  making  of  a  good  liter- 
ary society  girl,"  and  she  also  passed  on 
by  the  other  side.  But  a  certain  Friendly 
Student,  as  she  journeyed  that  way,  came 
where  she  was,  and  had  compassion  on  her 
and  took  her  to  her  room,  and  bound  up 
her  wounds,  pouring  in  understanding  and 
sympathy  and  friendliness.  And  she  put 
her  on  her  feet  again,  and  introduced  her 
to  her  own  friends,   and  was  a  friend  to  her. 

Which  of  these  thinkest  thou  proved 
neighbor  to  the  Freshman  that  fell  among 
critics? 

25 


However,  there  is  one  exception  to  these 
American  colleges,  and  that  is  old  Mary- 
ville.  It  is  full  of  "Friendly  Students";  it 
is  permeated  with  a  democratic  spirit;  the 
Young  Women's  Christian  Association  is 
striving  to  satisfy  your  every  need,  to  give 
you  true  friends,  a  good  time,  an  under- 
standing of  religion,  and  an  opportunity  for 
development  and  service.  Freshmen  friends 
and  new  girls,  we  are  eager  to  welcome  you 
with    outstretched    arms.

BIG    SISTER   MOVEMENT 

All  of  us  who  have  come  to  Maryville  as 
strangers  know  just  how  much  the  Big  Sis- 
ter Movement  of  the  Y.  W.  means  on  Col- 
lege Hill.  There  is  perhaps  no  other  phase 
of  Y.  W.  life  which  does  more  to  create 
that  feeling  of  friendship  which  predomi- 
nates   at    Maryville. 

Each  new  girl  will  have  a  Big  Sister,  and 
will  probably  be  quite  well  acquainted  with 
her  by  the  time  she  reaches  school,  for  all 
Big  Sisters  try  to  get  in  touch  with  their 
Little  Sisters  during  the  summer  by  mail. 
Those  letters  she  will  write  you  will  be 
26 


full  of  valuable  information,  and  you  may 
ask  her  questions — just  as  many  as  you 
wish. 

Your  Y.  W.  Big  Sister  will  be  quite  as 
patient,  as  sympathetic,  as  lovable,  as  will- 
ing to  help  you  through  your  first  strange 
days  at  school,  as  a  real  true  sister  can  be, 
and  her  friendship  and  helpfulness  will  re- 
main throughout  the  year.  You  may  feel 
that  your  first  Sunday  away  from  home  will 
be  your  "homesick"  time,  but  with  a  'Big 
Sister  to  take  you  to  church  and  spend  a 
pleasant  afternoon  with  you,  your  lonesome 
day  will  quickly  pass  away,  and  your  pros- 
pects for  the  year  will  doubtless  seem 
brighter.

NU    GAIklMA  SIGMA 

Did  you  ever  feel  jlike  a  stranger  in  a 
strange  land?  Did  you  ever  go  any  place 
where  everyone  seemed  to  know  everyone 
else,  where  they  were  all  interested  in 
things  you  were  not  familiar  with,  and 
where  their  conversation  about  those  sub- 
jects sounded  like  Greek?  You  never  felt 
quite   so    lonely    in    all    your    life,    did    you? 

Then  on  the  other  hand  did  you  ever 
go   to  a  big  conference  where  you  met  doz- 

27 


ens  of  ffirls,  likewise  strangers,  but  who 
had  come  from  all  parts  of  the  country  for 
fellowship,  for  a  discussion  of  personal  prob- 
lems in  order  to  bring  the  ideas  of  their 
communities  to  others?  You  will  see  these 
hundreds  of  girls  dividing  into  smaller 
groups  of  ten  or  twelve,  so  that  the  con- 
ference may  become  more  personal,  so  that 
friendships  may  become  more  intimate,  and 
that  all  may  have  an  individual  part  in 
the    discussion. 

Did  you  ever  think  of  college  as  a  big 
conference?  Well,  it  is;  one  that  lasts  for 
four  long  years. 

We  want  each  new  girl  to  enter  right 
into  our  school  life,  to  bring  her  new  ideas 
to  us,  to  show  us  where  we  need  improving. 
So  we  have  formed  conference  groups  of 
about  ten  new  girls  with  one  of  our  finest  old 
girls  to  help  you  until  you  elect  your  own 
chairman.  This  leader  will  make  you  fa- 
miliar with  our  campus  activities,  our  Y. 
W.  C.  A.  organization,  and  together  you  can 
talk  over  college  problems;  but  best  of  all 
you  will  become  friends,  and  immediately  be 
grafted  into  the  tree  of  Y.  W.  that  is  extend- 
ing its   welcoming  branches   to   all   the   girls.

Y.    W.    C,    A.    SUNDAY    AFTERNOON 
MEETINGS 

WTiat   do   school   girls   like   to  talk  about? 

Sundaes,  hikes,  clothes,  exams;  exams, 
clothes,    hikes,    sundaes. 

Well,  we're  planning  to  have  every  girl 
talking  about  the  Sundays  next  year. 
Why?  Simply  because  it  is  on  Sunday  aft- 
ernoon that  the  T.  W.  C,  A.  holds  its 
weekly  devotional  meeting,  and  we  are  plan- 
ning to  make  that  the  brightest  hour  of  all 
the   week. 

We  want  to  tell  you  of  the  three  S's 
which  help  to  make  our  Sunday  meetings 
pleasant. 

First,  Sociability.  Every  college  girl 
wants  lots  of  friends,  and  what  better  place 
is  there  to  find  them  than  In  T.  W.?  Just 
try  us  on  Sociability.  We're  truly  longing 
to  get  better  acquainted. 

Second,  Service.  If  you  miss  the  old  C. 
E.  at  home,  you'll  want  to  enter  right  away 
into  the  work  of  T.  W.,  and  if  you  have 
never  had  the  opportunity  of  being  a  mem- 
ber of  a  real,  live  Young  People's  Society, 
here's  your  chance  for  service  on  the  Hill. 

Third,  Spirituality.  This  is,  of  course,  the 
biggest  aim  of  our  Sunday  afternoon  meet- 
ings, and  the  greatest  source  of  enjoyment. 
After    a    busy,    strenuous    week    we    feel    the 

29 


need  of  strength  and  refreshing,  and  so  to- 
gether we  seek  Him  who  is  the  Bread  of 
Life  and   the   Water   of   Life. 

We  are  working  for  bigger  and  better 
meetings  in  1923-1924  than  we  have  had  in 
the  years  past.  Can  we  count  on  your  sup- 
port? 

MARY    BROADY, 
EVELYN    FITTS. 

SOCIAL    ACTIVITIES 

To  every  new  girl  coming  to  Maryville  in 
September,  there  will  be  a  warm  feeling  in 
our  hearts  for  j^ou.  We  don't  want  you  to 
have  that  homesick  feeling  that  people  gen- 
erally attribute  to  the  new  girl.  No  Mary- 
ville girl  Is  ever  homesick  for  more  than 
tv/o  minutes.  Don't  think  that  you'll  be 
left  out  when  you  descend  those  train  steps, 
for  we'll  be  right  there  to  meet  you  and 
show  you  to  your  new  home. 

Y.   W.   C.  A.   Reception 

For  everybody  to  learn  everybody  else 
there  will  be  an  informal  reception  held  on 
Baldwin  lawn  Saturday  night,  September  22. 
You  can't  help  knowing  everybody  else;  you 
just  will! 

Breakfast  Hike 

Then  two  weeks  later  on  Monday  morning 
we'll    hike    before    the    sun    rises,    and    have 


breakfast   out   in   the   country.      It's   loads   of 
fun;  and  then  it  is  just  beginning  to  be  cool. 

Montvale   Trip 

The  best  hike  of  all  is  our  trip  to  Mont- 
vale for  the  week-end.  There  we  are  free 
from  all  but  ourselves.  We  talk  and  walk 
and  climb  and  cook  and  do  anything  else 
that  we  want  to. 

Banquet 

There  is  our  formal  entertainment  where 
we  enjoy  our  own  politeness,  and  besides 
the  menu,  we  have  another  rare  treat.  Blue 
Ridge,  our  Southern  Conference  for  T.  W. 
C  A.,  is  discussed.  We  hope  that  you  will 
become  as  enthusiastic  as  we  who  have  al- 
ready  been    to    this    conference. 

May   Day 

This  crowns  all  the  T.  W.  events  for  the 
year. 

It's  beautiful,    fairy-like   and   gorgeous. 
Just  come  and  you'll  see!

An  oriental  banquet,   a  party  and  lots  more 
Are   merely  an   Inkling   of  all   the  things    in 

store. 
The    orphans    like    to    see   us    come. 
They  like  the  eats  we  bring. 
They    like    the    games    we    play    with    them. 
They  like   the  songs  we   sing. 
We're  interested  in  missions,  Fred  Hope  and 

all    his   crew. 
We  .try  in  every  little  way 
To    make    his    dreams   come    true. 
Last   year   we    had    an    old   clothes   raid, 
A   novelty,    you'd  say. 

We  searched  the  town  from  left   to   right 
To   make  our  project   pay. 
Our    aim    is    Christian    fellowship, 
Frendship   and   love   we'd  bid. 
We'd   have   the   girls   to   follow   Christ, 
And    do    the    things    He    did. 
We  want   you   every  one  to   know 
That   service,    come   what   may. 
Is   woven  in   our  purposes 
In    every    little   way. 

Of    course    there's    fun    just    all    the    time; 
We're  jolly   as   can  be; 
And  yet,   our   goal  is    set  so   high 
That   everyone  can  see.  '•

You  need  not  have   a  fear. 

We   need  you  up    on  College   Hill. 

We   need   your  thoughts  and  views. 

We'd  like  to  have  you  tell  us 

The   very  latest  news. 

If  you  will  only   say   the   word, 

If  you  will  come — well,  oh,

INTRODUCTION 

In  publishing  this  handbook  the  Young 
Men's  Christian  Association  feels  it  is  doing 
a  real  service  for  the  students  of  Maryville 
College,  especially  the  incoming  students. 
The  aim  and  purpose  of  the  Christian  As- 
sociation is  to  make  every  man  on  the  Hill 
an  active  member,  and  a  follower  of  Christ. 
We  purpose  to  help  to  continue  the  fine 
spirit  of  fellowship  which  has  been  preva- 
lent among  Maryville  men  and  women  since 
the  founding  of  the  college.  Here's  for  a 
bigger   and    better    association    in    Maryville. 

MEMBERSHIP 

In  article  two  of  the  Y.  M.  C.  A.  Consti- 
tution we  find  that  there  are  two  kinds  of 
membership,  active  and  associate.  The  ac- 
tive membership  consists  of  men  who  are 
members  in  good  standing  of  evangelical 
churches,  or  professing  Christians  of  the 
Protestant  faith,  and  who  liave  been  duly 
received  and  elected  by  the  association. 
Only  active  members  may  vote  and  hold 
office. 

The  associate  membership  consists  of  any 
male  student  of  good  moral  standing  who 
desires  to  join  the  association.  These  mem- 
bers  are   entitled   to   all   privileges   of  mem- 

35 


bership,    except   those  of   voting   and   holding 
office. 

Let   us    get    together    and   make    this   year 
the    greatest   in    the    history    of    Maryville.

Y.  M.   C.   A.  ROOMS 

When  you  finally  land  on  Maryville  Col- 
lege campus,  and  begin  to  explore  its  un- 
known recesses,  you  will  eventually  come  to 
a  large  brick  building.  Near  the  top  of  it 
you  will  see  a  sign  which  reads  "Bartlett 
Hall,"  and  a  little  lower  you  will  see  "Y.  M. 
C.  A."  written  in  large  white  letters.  This 
is  the  home  of  the  T.  M.  C.  A.  on  College 
Hill,  and  is  a  place  where  all  men  on, the 
Hill   may   go   for  reading  and  recreation. 

Now  when  you  have  found  this  building 
go  inside  and  make  yourself  at  home.  Just 
at  the  right  of  the  entrance  you  will  find  a 
small  room,  which  is  the  Y.  M.  C.  A.  store, 
and  here  you  may  get  candy  and  other  con- 
fections to  supplement  the  menu  that  you 
will  receive  at  the  dining  hall.  A  notice  of 
the  hours  that  the  store  is  open  will  be 
posted  on  the  door.  Then,. right  next  to  the 
store,  and  just  around  the  corner,  is  the 
"Y"  reading  room,  where  you  will  find  the 
latest  magazines,  and  where  you  and  your 
friends  may  gather,  or  write  letters.  Y.  M. 
C.  A.  stationery  may  be  bought  at  the  "Y" 
store  for  a  nominal  sum.  Make  use  of  this 
room,  for  it  will  drive  away,  the  blue  feel- 
ing which  comes  during  the  first  few  days 
of  school.  At  the  left  of  the  entrance  is 
the    auditorium    where   the   members   of    the 

3/7: 


T.  M.  C.  A.  gather  on  Sundaj^  just  after 
dinner  for  an  hour  of  religious  meeting  and 
discussion.  You  will  find  these  meetings  full 
of  help  and  inspiration.  The  gymnasium  is 
also  on  the  first  floor.  When  you  have  thor- 
oughly explored  the  first  floor,  don't  fail  to 
go  upstairs  before  you  leave  the  building. 
Here  you  will  find  the  T.  M.  C.  A.  office 
just  over  the  entrance.  This  is  the  place 
where  you  find  the  president,  vice-president 
and  secretary.  They  will  be  glad  to  have 
you  come  in  and  get  acquainted.  Doubtless, 
they  can  help  you  over  some  of  the  diffi- 
culties which  you  may  encounter. 

All  these  rooms  are  for  the  free  use  of  all 
the  fellows  on  the  Hill,  and  the  officers  are 
willing  and  glad  at  all  times  to  help  you 
with  your  problems.  Make  use  of  these  ad- 
vantages, and  you  will  enjoy  your  college 
life   much    more.

Bl^UE    RIDGE 

Every  spring  we,  the  students  of  Mary- 
ville  College,  are  represented  at  the  great 
Y.  M.  C.  A.  conferences  which  are  held  at 
Blue  Ridge,  North  Carolina,  the  finest  con- 
ference grounds  of  the  South.  We  always 
have  had  big  delegations  from  Maryville  at 
Blue  Ridge,  and  next  June  we'  expect  to 
have  more  students  than  ever  before  vfli0 
will  get  the  benefits  of  these  conferences,  led 
by  such  men  as  Robert  E.  Speer,  Sherwood 
Eddy    and    John    R.    Mott. 

FRED   HOPE 

Every  year  during  the  month  of  May  w© 
have  a  "Fred  Hope"  Campaign  drive,  eon-

Some  years  ago,  Fred  Hope,  a  student 
from  Maryville,  went  to  Africa  as  a  mission 
worker.  After  overcoming  stupendous  ob- 
stacles, he  finally  succeeded  in  establishing 
a  mission  station  there,  which  has  grown 
since,  and  is  now  accomplishing  great  work 
in  Christianizing  and  civilizing  the  natives. 
We  are  proud  of  our  annual  contributions 
which  go  toward  helping  the  work  of  our 
friend  and  former  fellow  student,  Fred  Hope.

LIFE   WORK    CONFERENCE 

All  the  students  remember  the  Life  Work 
Conference  which  was  held  in  March.  The 
messages  g-iven  by  able  speakers  on  prin- 
ciples which  should  govern  the  choice  of 
one's  vocation  were  nat  only  inspiring  and 
instructive,  but  they  were  just  the  thing 
that  naany  of  the  students  needed  to  help 
them    decide    their   life   calling. 

Every  new  student  should  look  forward  to 
the  next  Life  Work  Conference,  for  it  will 
be  of  great  value  in  the  lives  of  all  stu- 
dents. Whether  you  have  decided  on  your 
life  work  or  not  this  conference  will  do 
you   much   good. 

HIKES 

Have  you  ever  felt  the  thrill  of  a  hike?  If 
not,  you  'have  missed  a  real  treat,  and  half 
of  your  healthy  life.  One  of  the  best  hikes 
taken  by  the  college  men  is  the  trip  to 
Thunderhead,  by  the  Y.  M.  C.  A.  This  moun- 
tain is  a  treeless  dome  in  the  Great  Smoky 
Mountains  which  is  about  5,700  feet  above 
sea  level.  This  is  the  big  hike  of  the  year. 
Be  sure  to  arrange  to  go. 

There  are  many  points  of  interest  which 
are  much  nearer  Maryville  than  Thunder- 
head.  Among  these  is  the  trip  to  Look 
Rock,  to  the  Flats,  to  Sunshine  or  to  Calder- 
wood,   where  the  mountains  are  everyv/here. 

40    . 


Another  fine  place  is  at  Sheep  Pen  Cave  on 
the  Tennessee  River.  Swimming  and  fish- 
ing, as  well  as  a  quiet  rest,  can  be  found 
here. 

There  is  no  lack  of  places  to  wliich  one 
might  hike.  All  it  takes  is  a  little  energy 
and  vitality.  Get  your  group  of  four  to  six 
together,  and  plan  to  go  somev/here  on  a 
hike.  If  nobody  in  your  bunch  knows  the 
way,  see  the  Y.  M.,  it  will  provide  a  leader 
for  you. 

MOTION   PICTURES 

Once  every  week  the  T.  M.  C.  A.  has  a 
good  motion  picture  show.  Only  the  best 
of  pictures  are  shown,  and  they  are  given 
to  the  student  at  cost,  which  ordinarily  is 
ten  cents  for  each  show  of  five  to  eight  reels. 
These  shows  will  be  on  Saturday  after  the. 
meetings  of  the  literary  societies.  Make 
your  plans  to  go  to  literary  society  and  then 
to   the  show  afterward. 

THE    FRIENDSHIP    COUNCFL 

The  Friendship  Council  is  a  new  unit  of 
the  Y.  M.  C.  A.  It  is  one  of  the  most  pow- 
erful religious  organizations  on  the  Hill.  The 
men  who  make  up  this  council  have  had 
religious  experience,  and  are  sincere,  pray- 
ing men,  eager  to  do  their  part  in  toeing  a 
friend  to  man  and  building  up  the  kingdom 

4t 


of  our  Savior.  This  council  seeks  to  build 
up  the  spiritual  side  of  the  life  of  the  stu- 
dents. To  accomplish  this  we  have  each 
taken    the    following    pledge: 

Through  prayer  and  by  the  grace  of  God, 
the  Friendship  Council  aims  to  make  every 
man  on  College  Hill  a  professing  Christian, 
a  member  of  some  church,  and  an  active 
Christian  worker.  To  accomplish  this  end, 
I  promise  to  make  my  life  as  much  like  that 
of  Jesus  Christ  as  possible,  to  befriend,  pray 
for  and  help  in  every  way  possible  every 
man  under  my  care,  to  attend  every  coun- 
cil meeting  unless  prohibited  for  a  satisfac- 
tory   reason. 

Athletics 

The  physical  department  of  the  "Y" 
hopes  to  get  every  college  man  in  some  form 
of  athletics.  Intra-mural  athletics  will  be 
developed  to  the  utmost,  providing  every  fel- 
low will  co-operate  with  us.  There  are 
enough  branches  of  athletics  that  every  fel- 
low will  be  able  to  get  into  that  which  he 
likes  best.  Independent  football  teams  will 
play  on  a  regular  schedule.  There  will  also 
be  a  basketball  league.  Baseball,  tennis  and 
track  will  not  be  limited  to  the  varsity  play- 
ers. In  the  Gym  there  will  be  wrestling, 
boxing,  tumbling  and  volley  ball.  Above  all 
don't   miss    the    opportunity   to   swim.

for  this  school  year, 

KELIGIOUS  MEETINGS  OF  THE 
Y.   M.    C.   A. 

Realizing  that  in  order  to  get  a  really 
well-rounded  education  a  fellow  should  be 
given  an  opportunity  to  attend  and  take 
part  in  religious  activities  as  well  as  'aca- 
demic and  physical,  the  committee  on  reli- 
gious programs  has  worked  out  a  suggested 
plan  for  the  meetings  for  the  first  semester. 
This  schedule  immediately  follows  this 
article. 

It  will  be  noticed  that  the  program  covers 
a  great  variety  of  subjects,  and  that  the 
meetings  will  be  conducted  to  a  great  ex- 
tent by  the  students.  It  is  our  belief,  as 
fellow  students,  that  our  "buddies"  will  have 
a  greater  interest  in  the  meetings  when  they 
have  a  definite  responsibility  in  them  than 
they  would  if  only  a  selected  few  were  called 
upon  to   take  part. 

We  have  planned  our  work  for  the  first . 
semester,  fellows;  now  let's'  with  God's  help 
work   our  plan.

LITERARY    SOCIETIES 

Bainonian 

At  Maryville  thrives  Bainonian,  the  old- 
est girls'  literary  society.  Many  are  the 
B's  that  buzz  busily  around  this  hive.  The 
Spirit  of  Bainonian,  the  queen  bee,  sends 
out  her  B  band  in  search  of  benefits  which 
will  build  and  store  Bainonian  with  the  best 
of  beauty  and  blessing-s.  All  college  season 
the  Bs  battle  bravely  and  bring  back  honey 
from  the  hearts  of  the  blooms  they  find. 
They  blend  their  burdens  into  B  bread  and 
honey,  so  when  they  need  it  they  have  bal- 
anced rations  and  become  broad  and  beau- 
tiful. These  are  the  beginnings  of  B  bread 
and  honey — buoyancy,  bravery,  brilliance, 
boosting,  broad-mindedness  and  being 
v/holesome.  Tie  beckon  you.  Will  j'ou  eat 
of  our  store,  and  help  store  up  m.ore?  We 
bid  you  welcom.e,  and  beg  you  to  be  B's  of 
Bainonian. 

Theta   Epsilon 

"W^e  extend  to  you  a  hearty  invitation  to 
visit  our  society,  and  if  you  are  pleased  with 
us,  we  would  enjoy  having  you  as  one  of 
our  members.  Theta  Epsilon  aims  to  secure 
literary  and  social  development  for  every 
girl.  The  literary  and  social  programs  have 
their  places  in  the  year's  schedule  as  you 
46 


will  find  out,  if  you  join  us.  Every  old 
member  of  the  society  will  tell  you  that  she 
is  a  Theta  born,  and  a  Theta  bred,  and 
when  she  dies,  she'll  be  a  Theta  dead.  Join 
us  and  you  will  be  saying  the  same  thing. 

Alpha    Sigma 

During  each  of  the  score  of  years  the 
Alpha  Sigma  Literary  Society  has  been  in 
existence  it  has  been  one  of  the  most  im- 
portant organizations  on  the  Hill.  Its  •  two 
purposes  are,  to  develop  a  hearty  Christian 
fellowship  among  its  members,  and  to  aid 
them  to  attain  the  highest  proficiency  in 
oratory,  debate,  and  general  literary  achieve- 
ment. The  most  careful  training  and 
consideration  is  given  to  all  new  men, 
and  every  opportunity  is  sought  for  their 
benefit  and  improvement.  Pour  years  of  ac- 
tive membership  in  this  society  is  a  great 
help  in  a  preparation  for  a  ifuture  leader 
in  forensics  or  a  public  speaker.  Each  year 
the  members  of  this  society  give  a  play,  the 
proceeds  of  which  go  to  the  improvement 
of  the  organization.  The  first  meeting  of 
the  j^ear  is  given  over  to  a  welcome  and 
general  good  time  for  the  new  men  of  the' 
college.  It  also  has  two  joint  meetings 
with  its  sister  society,  the  Theta  Epsilon, 
for  the  purpose  of  social  benefit  and  en- 
joyment.

Athenian 

The  Athenian  Literary  Society  holds  the 
distinction  of  being  the  oldest  literary  so- 
ciety on  the  Hill.  Its  present  membership 
enrolls  a  large  proportion  of  the  male  stu- 
dents of  the  college.  Some  years  ago  it 
became  necessary  to  divide  the  society  into 
two  sections.  Each  section  meets  in  its 
hall  on  Saturday  evening  at  6:30.  The  ideal 
of  Athenian  is  to  give  her  membership  such 
training  as  will  enable  them  to  secure  the 
very  best  development  during  their  college 
days;  and  to  promote  a  correct  college  spirit 
and  love  for  Alma  Mater.  To  accomplish 
this  ideal  she  provides  programs  of  an  in- 
structive, entertaining  and  varied  nature 
that,  are  full  of  life,  pep  and  college  spirit. 
All  new  men  are  earnestly  invited  to  attend 
the  opening  social  of  this  society  at  the  be- 
ginning of  the  year.  All  who  believe  in  our 
motto,  "Nothing  Without  Labor,"  are  in- 
vited to   become   Athenians. 

Adelphic  Union 

The  four  literary  societies  unite  to  form 
the  Adelphic  Union.  This  large  organiza- 
tion elects  its  officers  each  spring.  The 
honor  of  being  president  of  the  Adelphic 
Union  is  passed  on  from  one  society  to  the 
other   in    fixed   order. 

The  Adelphic  Union  gives  a  banquet  each 
48 


j'ear  to  its  membei's  and  friends.  In  May 
the  banquet  was  a  King  Tut  affair,  and 
was    enjoyed   by   many  of   the    students. 

Debate    and    Oratory 

One  of  the  strongest  institutions  for  men- . 
tal  development  and  leadership  at  Mary- 
ville  is  found  in  the  excellent  forensic  pro- 
gram put  on  every  year  by  the  Pi  Kappa 
Delta. 

The  1923  season  has  been  marked  by  two 
new  features,  (1)  the  first  debate  tour  ever 
made  by  a  Maryville  team,  and  (2)  the  re- 
vival of  the  Tennessee  Oratorical  League 
with  Vanderbilt  University,  University  of  the 
South,  Chattanooga  University,  Cumberland 
University,  and  Maryville  College  as  the 
membership.  There  were  thirty-nine  judges' 
votes  for  the  season,  twenty-one  of  which 
were  favorable  to  us  and  eighteen  were  cast 
for  our  opponents.  Nine  of  the  thirteen 
debates  were   held   on   foreign   floors. 

Next  year  is  before  us;  and  those  of  us 
who  believe  Maryville  has  a  right  to  a  place 
in  the  forensic  sun  are  ambitious  for  a 
strong  schedule.  Plans  are  under  way  for 
the  holding  of  a  forensic  meet  to  determine 
the  forensic  championship  of  East  Tennes- 
see, and  hopes  are  high  that  we  may  be 
able  to  send  a  debate  team  to  the  national 
convention  of  Pi  Kappa  Delta.

The   Chilhowean 

The  Chilhowean  is  the  college  annual,  pub- 
lished by  the  Junior  Class.  It  is  the  official 
summary  of  the  year's  events,  and  is  in  real- 
ity a  chapter  in  the  history  of  undergradu- 
ate Maryville,  One  of  the  most  pleasant 
features  of  college  life  is  that  memories  of 
it  are  always  present.  It  is  the  purpose  of 
the  Chilhowean  to  preserve  these  memories 
accurately.  New  ideas  are  alwaj'^s  sought 
in  order  to  faithfully  portray  all  organiza- 
tions and  activities.     All  friends  of  Maryville 

50

The  Di-amatic  Club 

"The  Dramatic  Club,"  or  "Maryville 
Players,"  as  they  are  better  known,  during 
the  three  years  of  its  definite  organization 
has  established  a  permanent  place  for  itself 
among  the  primary  student  activities. 
These  players  are  known  not  only  by  the  peo- 
ple of  the  college  and  town,  but  also  by  those 
in  surrounding  towns,  and  around  our  sub- 
urb, Knoxville.  This  club  offers  an  invalu- 
51 


able  opportunity  to  talented  persons,  and 
seems  to  be  growing  in  popularity  all  the 
time. 

Men's    Glee    Club 

The  Men's  Glee  Club  has  been  organized 
for  four  years,  and  has  had  many  good  trips. 
It  is  a  live  and  growing  organization.  The 
1923  club  was  heard  from  New  Orleans  to 
New  York  by  radio.  Jean  McMurray,  Presi- 
dent, and  James  Brown,  Manager,  are  plan- 
ning many  extensive  trips  for  next  year.  If 
you  can  sing,  we  want  you  to  try  out  for  the 
club. 

The  Band 

One  of  the  largest  and  best  musical  or- 
ganizations at  Maryville  is  the  College  Band. 
Harry  Bannister,  the  experienced  instruc- 
tor, conducts  bi-weekly  rehearsals  of  band 
music  along  every  line,  including  high-class 
marches,  waltzes,  serenades,  medleys  and 
overtures.  The  t>and  furnishes  music  at 
many  entertainments  and  athletic  contests. 
Concerts  and  parades  also  draw  many 
hearers.  Fellows  who  possess  a  fair  knowl- 
edge of  band  music  should  join  early. 

Graduate    Recitals 

There  is  an  old  saying,  which  nobody 
doubts  its  truth,   that   our  home   talent  is   as 

52 


good  as  that  which  is  imported.  Old  stu- 
dents will  agree  that  the  entertainments 
given  by  the  Music  and  Expression  Depart- 
ments are  not  to  be  surpassed.  Among 
these  entertainments  graduate  recitals  take 
a  high  place.  They  are  given  in  the  spring 
by  members  of  the  graduating  classes  of 
expression,  piano,  and  voice.  They  furnish 
an  opportunity  for  cultural  development 
along  lines  not  pursued  in  the  classroom  and 
add  much  to  the  interest  of  the  students. 

Hi-Trail   Club 

The  Hi-Trail  Club  was  organized  for  the 
purpose  of  development  of  physical  strength, 
heightening  the  knowledge  of  and  a  love 
for  the  "Great  Outdoors,"  and  gaining  a 
more  intimate  knowledge  of  the  mountain- 
eers. The  membership  In  this  club  is  re- 
stricted to  twelve.  To  become  a  member 
of  the  Hi-Trail  Club  one  must  have  had  at 
least  one  hundred  miles  of  hiking  experience, 
and  must  present  a  thesis  giving  an  account 
of  such  experiences,  and  be  unanimously 
elected  by   the  members. 

The   members  are  looking  forward  to  next 
year  with  hopes  for  as  much  fun  and  fellow- 
ship  as   has   been   prevalent   during   the   year 
which    has   just   passed.

Ministerial    Association 

The  Ministerial  Association  is  composed 
of  candidates  for  the  Christian  ministry 
who  are  in  attendance  upon  the  college. 
Its  object  is  the  discussion  of  themes  re- 
lating to  the  work  of  the  ministry.  All 
men  who  expect  to  become  ministers  should 
join   this   association. 

Student   Volunteers 

Tliis  is  an  organization  of  the  students 
who  expect  to  go  to  the  foreign  field  as  mis- 
sionaries. Its  weekly  meetings  are  held  on 
Thursday.  The  programs  consist  of  book 
reviews,  talks  by  missionaries  and  discus- 
sion. If  it  is  j^our  purpose  to  go  to  the  for- 
eign field,  join  this  group  and  get  in  line 
for  your  work. 

Religious  Meetings  of  the   College 

Maryville  College  is  noted  for  many 
things,  but  the  one  thing  for  which  she  will 
always  be  remembered  Is  her  February 
meetings.  These  meetings  are  instrumental 
in  erecting  new  standards  of  life;  they  in- 
spire some  to  active  Christian  service,  and 
in  a  measure  determine  the  destinies  of  the 
students. 

Vesper  service  is  conducted,  every  Sunday 
evening   by    our   college    pastor.    Dr.    William 

54 


Patton  Stevenson.  To  the  new  students  es- 
pecially this  service  is  one  of  the  most  im- 
pressive of  the  services  conducted  on  the 
Hill.  The  music  is  excellent,  for  the  chants 
and  anthems  of  the  robed  choir  add  much. 
Then   follows   a  very  inspiring-  address. 

On  Thursday  morning  you  will  hear  an- 
other of  these  very  helpful  addresses  by 
Dr.  Stevenson.  His  sermons  are  meant  for 
tha  college  students,  so  do  not  miss  any 
of    them. 

Chemistry  Club 

The  Chemistry  Club  is  composed  of  stu- 
dents who  are  taking  more  than  one  year 
of  college  chemistry.  One  year  chemistry  is 
required  for  membership.  This  club  dis- 
cusses the  chemical  problems  of  the  day. 

L.aw   Club

ATHT.ETICS 

Maryville  is  represented  by  teams  in  every 
major  college  sport,  and  ranks  on  equal 
terms  with  the  leaders  In-  this  section  of  the 
country.  The  administrative  control  of  ath- 
letics is  centered  in  the  Athletic  Association. 
The  officers  of  this  Athletic  Association  are: 
President,  Carl  Schmidt;  Yice-TTesident,  Guy 
Sneed;  Secretary,  Thelma  Adair;  Treasurer, 
F.  L.  Proffitt;  Faculty  Representatives,  J.  H. 
McMurray,  G.  A.  Knapp;  Student  Represen- 
tatives, Margaret  McKinney,  Lucile  Heis- 
kell,  Earle  Riskey,  Doris  Musick;  Town  Rep- 
resentatives,   Dave  Proffitt,   Dr.   Burchfield. 

"V^ith  L,  S.  Honaker  and  L.  E.  Bond  as 
coaches  of  Maryville  athletics,  and  hard 
fighting  teams  composed  of  loyal  nien,  it  is 
no  wonder  that  the  Athletic  Association  has 
made  such  a  stride  forward  during  the  last 
two  years.  A  new  day  has  dawned  for 
Maryville  in  athletics  because  she  has  two 
live  coaches,  plenty  of  good  material,  added 
equipment,  and  a  splendid  new  field.  It  is 
hoped  that  the  new  gymnasium  will  be 
ready  for  use  in  the  year  1923-1924. 
rOOTBALI. 

For  the  past  two  years  Maryville  has  held 
the  championship  of  the  Appalachian  Ath- 
letic Conference.  Prospects  are  good  for 
holding  this  championship  for  another 
year.

BASKETBALL 

Milligan  disputed  our  claim  to  the  cham- 
pionship of  the  Appalachian  Conference  of 
basketball  of  last  season.  A  post  season 
game  was  arranged.  We  went  up  and  beat 
them  in  a  business-like  manner,  tucked  the 
cup  under  our  arms  and  came  home.  Thus 
ended  the  most  successful  basketball  sea- 
son in  the  history  of  Maryville.  With  hopes 
for  a  new  grymnasium  for  next  year,  and  all 
the  players  except  one  back,  next  year's 
team  should  prove  one  of  the  best  in  the 
South. 

58 


BASEBALL 

Maryville  has  always  had  a  baseball  team 
which  would  do  credit  to  any  school.  The 
only  trouble  we  have  with  our  baseball  team 
is  that  of  keeping-  our  men  away  from  the 
big  league  teams.  The  prospects  for  next 
year  go  to  prove  that  Maryville's  baseball 
record  will  continue  to  be  improved.  We 
are  to  lose  only  one  man  through  graduation. 

TENNIS 
We  had  on  our  tennis  schedule  this  year. 
Centre,  Tusculum,  Sewanee,  East  Tennessee 
Normal,  and  University  of  Tennessee.  Ten- 
nis is  growing  rapidly  in  popularity  at 
Maryville.  In  this  sport,  as  in  the  others, 
we  are  producing  winning  teams.  With  all 
of  this  year's  team  back  for  next  year  we 
are  sure  to  have  a  season  which  will  result 
in  many  victories. 

TRACK 

The  track  work  at  Maryville  is  still  in  its 
infancy.  However,  the  fact  that  we  have 
had  more  men  taking  active  part,  and  more 
intercollegiate  meets  this  year  than  pre- 
viously goes  to  prove  that  track  athletics  are 
steadily   improving, 

59 


This  year  we  had  two  dual  meets,  one 
with  the.  University  of  Tennessee,  and  the 
other   with   Centre    College. 

In  both  of  these  meets  we  took  our  share 
of  first  places.  Maryville  was  also  repre- 
sented in  the  first  Relay  Carnival  of  South- 
ern Colleges  at  Georgia  Tech.  With  this  fine 
beginning  and  with  more  meets  planned  for 
another  year  it  should  not  be  long  before 
old  Maryville  should  hold  her  rightful  place 
with  the  rest  of  the  southern  schools  just 
as   she   does   in   her   other   major   sports.
