LIBRARIAN

MRS. EMMA McCLEAR

Librarian

The province of the library is to furnish reading matter for its patrons but its uses are infinitely vanous. Books of all kinds must find place on its shelves, that verified facts may be found by the searcher after knowledge; inspiration for the dreamer-bookS that are serviceable. beautiful.

The Junior College students have availed themselves of the advantage of the reading rooms and books of reference and the ability to use books, to the best advantage, has increased steadily.

Many words of appreciation show how large a part, the free use of the library has had to do with the success of the year's work.

With the founding of the Coeur d'Alene Junior College in 1933 many students joined the National Guard units stationed in Coeur d'Alene and added greatly to the personnel not only numerically but also in the type of young men desired. In return the military t raining given these young men not only entitles them to the military credit necessary should they enter other higher institutions, but also enables them to earn a small sum in attending these drills. Dw路ing the year, the student can obtain the following number of hours military credit: 48 armory drills........ ... ... ....................... 72 hours 15 days Field Training... ................ ...... 90 hours TOT AL........................................... 162 hours The organizations of the 148th Field Artillery in Coeur d'Alene desire to commend the fine spirit of cooperation shown by President Brakemeyer and the Faculty of the College during the past school year.

A HI ST ORY O F TH E CO EU R D' AL EN E JUNIOR COLL EGE

After much deliberation as to the advisability of establishing such an institution in Co~ur d'Alene, the Junior College, occupying the entire third floor of the city hall, was opened for registration September 14, 1933. By September 18, the date of the entrance examinations, the enrollment listed 55 students and within the next few weeks reached a total of 74.

The staff includes M. A. Brakemeyer, president of the college; J. J. Rae, vice president; and Mrs. G. C. Cardwell, secretary-treasurer. Faculty members include Mildred Axtell, B.S., M.S., University of Idaho, physical education and French instructor; Harold Bernard, B.S., M.A., Stanford University, social s'1ience instructor; Ellen Bungay, A.B., A.M., University of Washington, English instructor; Frank H. Evans, Teacher's Certificate, Chicago Musical College and formerly a student of A. Eaglefield Hull, Mus. Doc., F . R. C. 0., Charles Demorest, Eug路ene Bernstein, and Moissaye Boguslawski, harmony and glee club instructor; Ray Fah1路inger, Valparaiso University, Freeburg Music College, Pupil of Alexander Saslavsky and August Wolfe, orchestra director; Emma McClear, city librarian: Harold Telford, B.S., University of Idaho, physical education instructor; Fred M. Wehr, B.S., University of Idaho, M.S., University of Washington, mathematics and science instructor; Carola Schorman, secretarial training.

The board of directors consists of: :Mrs. Grover C. Cardwell, Mr. A. L. DePuy, Mr. Robert H. Elder, Mr. Frank Lafrenz, Mrs. H. R. Mcintyre, Mr. c. c. Robinson, Dr. E. L. Spohn, and Mr. E. R. Whitla, all of Coeur d'Alene. The ex-officio members consist of: Mayor John Knox Coe, Coeur d'Alene; Supt. F. N. Bost, Spirit Lake; Supt.

R. E. Brown, Rathdrum; Prin. G. 0. Kildow, Post Falls; Supt. J . J. Rae, Coeur d'Alene; and Pres. M. A. Brakemeyer, Coeur d'Alene.

The Coeur d'Alene junior college was not proposed to compete with the University of Idaho, but rather to supplement university instruction by giving a two-year course here for those students who could not afford to go away to college. Other advantages of the junior college, as stated by a local citizen, are: a means of providing an education for those lacking finances to go away to school; parental guidance of students who have graduated from high school and who may still be too young to go away to college; providing activity for high school graduates who are suddenly "thrown into the streets" after completing their high school course.

The school is non-sectarian and is a community enterprise affiliated with the association of independent colleges in the Pacific northwest. Tuition, which also includes the activity ticket, is $105 for the full school year or $35 for each of three terms. Many of the subjects were accredited by the University of Idaho after a faculty group from there made an inspection of the instruction facilities, and equipment in the school. In the group were : Dean J. A. Kostalek, who inspected mathematics; Dr.

H. B. Stough, zoology; A. H. Beattie, French; Dr. G. W. Hammer. physics; Dr. F. C. Church, history; Dr. G. M. Miller, English; Dr. E. Graue, economics; and Dr. A. C. Lemon, psychology. Mr. Cummings and Mr. Hensler of Moscow made the trip later in the year to inspect the mu.sic department. Those few subjects which were not given full credit were questioned not because of the methods of instruction, but because of insufficient equipment. However, President Brakemeyer confidently states that there is no reason that the necessary equipment cannot be installed before the fall term. Many of the other schools, including Cheney State Teachers college, Whitman, and Whitworth, accept all credits without exception and this accrediting is certainly a big achievement to have gained during the first year of the college. Much credit should go to President Brakemeyer for his untiring efforts in bringing this about.

All officers of the student body for the first year are freshmen: George Sonnichsen. pre~ident; Maurice Sampson, vice president; Taimie Erickson, secretary; Melvin Boothe, athletics chairman ; Dorothy Earin, social chairman; Evelyn McDonald, literary chairman; and Irene Fisher, music chairman. All are from Coeur d'Alene except Miss Fisher, who lives in Post Falls.

The students have been very fortunate during their first year in hearing in their convocations some of the best speakers of the northwest. Each address was on a topic of special interest to college students and was received with much enthusiasm.

Although work and study are the main requirements of the college course, the social life of the students is not neglected. The two parties with the Spokane Valley junior college, one in Spokane and one in Coeur d'Alene, the three teas given by the women students, the stag benefit given for the fathers although the coeds crashed the party, the cabaret part.y for the students and faculty, and the midnight supper for the "Thirteenth Chair" play cast probably head the social calendar for the first year. Other interesting events were the sports, the debates, and the trips.
