COLLEGE LIFE. College students are thoroughly imbued with the fact that they are preparing for life, but they frequently forget that they are really living while in college. Frequently depredations are committed in the college town which the students would never so much as think of doing in their home towns.

They consider themselves a priviledged class, simply because they are students. Political, social a.nd moral influence upon associates are forgotten and lives of impulse and caprice are lived.

The fundamental falacy is in the view of c, .liege life. In the words of one of our professors, we believe that "College 1s more a life to be lived than a work to be done." \Ve are really living a very importanl part of life now, a part of life ·which presents so very many different aspects. 11any of us are exerting as great, if not a greater, influence now as we shall after leaving the college halls. "Going out into t11e world," as we say, will not suddenly change our manner of life. If we have lived, while in college, a life characterized by promptness, faithfulness, honesty, incerity and truthfulness, we shall easily continue such a life when leaving the college environment. On the other hand, if we have neglected these things, intending to form such habits later, we may not so easily succeed.

Forty-three of our number are about to receiye diplomas and "go out into life." Let us, who still remain to spend one, two or three years in college, remember that we just as truly "go out into life" as the others and that it is highly important that we leave the right impression upon the life of the college, so that the mysterious thing which we call ·the spirit of Otterbein may not suffer from our negligence.

Otterbein in Other Lands The entire constituency of Otterbein University is interested in the influence of the dear ol<l school. The high ideals, such as are instilled into the student-life of Otterbein, are altruistic in nature and cannot be confined to any one country or locality. Otterbein has always had a comprehensive view of world problems and has fr,om the beginning offered her sons and daughters for their solution. She has always had an interest in worldwide Christian Missions and has thus supplied a large number of the missionaries sent out by the church she serves.

About twenty-five of her graduates and ex-students have taken life and sunshine into dark Africa. Many others have carried her influence into China, Japan, India, the Philippines and the isles of the sea. From the very first Otterbein has been closely con'lected with the missionary enterprise ,i the United Brethren Church. The "Cry first missior 1 aries of the church were selected from her student body. !IIr. and Mrs. J. K. Billheimer (Amanda Hanby) and Rev. Joseph ·w olf were Otterbein students and the first missionaries of the church.

Of these persons we have the following articles from Dr. T. ]. Sanders:

REV. JOSEPH WOLF '·Joseph \V olfe was the first one of my acquaintances to be sent by our church as a missionary. My first acquaintance with him was as a teacher in the Stratton country school (my mother' ' maiden name ,va Stratton) in the winter of 1871-72. \Volfe was Lall, straight as an arrow, and weighed about 210 lbs., and he was as stout

as a horse. His early education hau been neglected; his knowledge was quite limited; but he came from the Smillwille lligh School with inspiralion and splendid enthusiasm. "\\'hen the term was finished he at once came Lo Otterbein University.

I le soon ent me, as reward of merit, two pictures of the college building, which were much prized by myself.

His influence took me to Smithville, and later that personal influence and those pictures were the chief factors in bringing me to Otterbein and determining my ociety relationship. '·Two or three years later he called on me at Smithville, and after sitting just a few minutes, he arose and said: "I must bid you goodbye. I am on my way to Africa as a missionary."

I was surprised. stunned. l could not realize it.

"Africa seemed as remote then as :M ars now. But Africa has had a new, strange and increa ing interest eYer since. Since then, many other , dear to me, have gone and made the place well-night sacred. From \Volfe I got my fir t letters from Africa. "\Vhile there one night as he and others were sitting in the mi sion house at Shenge, there was heard an outcry by one of the boys. There was a large boa constrictor under the high porch, haying come there for chickens.

They all went out, armed with clubs and guns, surrounded the house, and shot and killed the boa. In his death struggles he pounded against the po. ts of the porch o terribly that they feared he would knock the house down. The boa's skin was tanned and dried and sent by Wolfe to Otterbein University. It may be seen on the

OTTERBEIN i'EGIS south wall of the Science Building, as you enter the ha! I. "In May l 878, my senior year in college, he again appeared one <lay in my room-a kin<l of living skeleton, an<l a death-like pallor upon his face.

I le was suffering from the fatal ,\frican fever and had just escaped 'the white man's graveyard.' " Mr. and Mrs.

' estigation of hi-., carrier, to disco,·er. if we can, the secret of his success.

This alone, \\'ou~d profit little unless

Billheimer.

"Mrs. J. K. Billheimer, daughter of Ilishop I lanby, was the second missionary in my per onal acquaintance, to Le sent to Africa. In the year of 1H77-78 it was thought best that she be here while he remained on the field. Often she would ·peak of the \\·o rk yonder, as we met Sundays in the class meetings held after services 111 Dr. Sherrick' recitation room.

She told me one time of the strange feeling that came over her when setting foot for the first time upou African oil. The first sound that greeted her was the song of her brother Ben, "Darling Nelly Gray."

"In the winter of that year Mr. Billl,eimer was obliged to return. \\'e knew of his coming. It was a long and perilous voyage, and we often talked, and prayed for his health and safety. At last he reached Westerville- a tall man, saintly, greatly emaciated. lle was a veteran missionary; had had five or ix terms on the field. He made a great impression on me. He told of his great loneliness-his wife in America, not a white face to be seen, and how, when the day"s work was done, he would o-o down to the ''eternal sea," the rolling, restle sea, and look longingly far westward, toward America.''

Alfred T. Howard, '94. accompanied by a desire to emulate his good qualities.

So far as the writer knows there is no other graduate of Otterbein who has risen to a place of equal prominence in the U. B. Church by way of the mission field, as that held by Bishop J lo,\ard. The office of Missionary Bishop did not make the man, the man made the office. \\'hat are the characteristics of the man which contributed to his success?

First of all I "oul<l mention a whole hearted Christian father, and a de, out Christian mother. The son inherited from the father that quality of whole-heartedness w h i ch endeared him to his friends and acquaintances.

The tanding of a man in his community is in no small degree a matter of physiology. The physical makeup of the man g·ave him a claim to a position of leader hip. Along with

OTTERDEIN )EGTS that strength of physical manhood \\'Cllt a \\ealth uf character which enabled him to retain the pusitiun uf leader:--hip. There was a frankness, an open-heartl'dness and an honesty auuut the man that made peoµle uelie\'e in him.

I think the influence of a State Cun\ enti11n "i the Y. :1I. C. A. was a large iact11r in turning Dr. I lllwarJ's life int,) thl' missi1111 field. \\'hen he decided to l>ccume a \·ulunteer he entered intu the w,irk 11f µreparation with the same warmth 11i earnestness \\ hich he exhibited in t:ver) thing in which he en-

'92. '.\fiss Florence i\I. Cronise, who taught c;erman and French in Otterbein frtllll t.·!)11 to 189-l, sailed for Africa during the year 1891, and vvas empl{)yed as principal of the Training Sclwol at Rotifunk for a period of three and nne half years. 'I his school reached its highest efficiency during that perilld. Of the 1~1any young men graduated under her tuition one, Rev. T. F. 1lallm,ell, is one of the most sueressful pa:c-tors and evangelists in our African :1lissiun. Miss Cronise made

After the insurrection :'.\Ir. King was made superintendent of the African Mission Field and ,ms sent back to reconstruct the \York out of the ruins. The advanced po'iition of the African Field to-day is due largely to the splendid ser\'ices rendered by Mr. King in this capacity until his retirement in 1912. ),f rs. King sen·ed as Conference Treasurer and :.fission ,\ccountant and Mr. King represented the African Mission in c;eneral Conference four times. At the time of his retirement he had 1110\"emen ts proposed for the unifying of the \\ ork of all the societies working in Sierra Leone. The unifying of the \\ oman\ Hoard and the General Foreign .:\.fissionary Board's work in , \ frica and in all other fields was largely due to the efforts of Mr. King

'96.

Frederick S. Minchell and Mrs.

OTTERBEIN JEGIS Myrtle Irwin Minchel sailed for Africa in 1896, and were compelled to relinquish their work on account of the insurrection of 1898. They suffered many hardships at that time and their infant, Mary Leone Minchell suffered to such a degree as to render her a cripple through life.

'97. 11iss Mary l\Iurrel took up Mission work in \Vest Africa in 1902.

She was engaged in both Educational and Evangelistic phases of the work.

Most of her time was spent at Moyama, which is 76 miles from Freetown, where she engaged in evangelistic work. The evangelistic phase was Miss Murrel's major and it is said thal she did more itinerating than mo::,t women do in Africa. During her first term she ·had an attack of "Blackwater Fever" and was hurried away from the coast. On her return she was again smitten with the disea e when she was compelled to withdraw from the field.

Since her return she has been doing pastoral work in Illinois.

'03. Rev. Wall in E. Riebel and Mrs. Elsie Lambert Riebel, sailed for Africa shortly after their graduation.

Only six weeks after their arrival at Taiama, \Vest Africa, Mrs. Riebel died. During these six weeks she made a wonderful impression on both m1ss1011aries and natives.

Shortly after Mrs. Riebel's death, Mr. Riebel was stationed at Rotifunk. Here he did educational and evangelistic work, making plendid progress in language study, but he was compelled to retire from the field in a little less than two years on account of failing health.

Since his return Rev. Riebel has been the successful pastor of the St. Clair Ave. United Brethren Church of Columbus, Ohio.

33

Clayton Judy and Mrs. Iva Riebel Judy went to Africa in the fall of 1903 and took charge of the work at Rotifunk where Mr. Judy· did especially strong work in industrial lines. It is said that Mr. Judy succeeded in making as good brick as has ever been made in Africa. He ass•isted in the medical work of the Station and took charge of the dispensary for several months · during the furlough of the Doctor of the Station. In this _medical work he laid the foundation for the splendid work in that department that has since been carried on. In all this work Mrs. Judy assisted her husband and made a splendid impression by her earnest, strong life.

'03.

'03. Chas. W. Snyder spent the years, '05 and '06 in Sierra Leone acting as pastor and missionary in charge at Moyamba. During the absence of the superintendent he was appointed acting superintendent of the Mission.

Mrs. Lucy Grantham Snyder served as Matron of the Girls' Home at 11oyamba.

'05. Mr. and Mrs. E. M. Hursh (Mary E. Lambert, '07) have spent mo.st of their time teaching in Albert Academy at Freetown, West Africa. For a number of years Mr. Hursh has been vice and acting principal of this school and has done a work that will tell through the coming years. At present Mr. Hursh is in charge of the African Mission Field.

'07. Frank A. Risley went to Africa in 1909 as director of the manual training department of Albert Academy.

Mr. Risley has developed a splendid grade of work in the carpentry department. A printing department has been established and is under the care of Mr. Risley.

He studied this buuk to hrca~he in the spirit of the original, that with heavenborn in"piration he might giye the message fresh tu the tried and sinful.

This originality has made him foremost among uur missiunaries. He secured a de,·out and sympathetic wife in the pcr,-,un uf t·urnelia 11. Parker.

"Coals from Men's Congress." "'J he present day marks a new ep, ch in awakened interest in religious \\'ork. E,·er_nd1ere church peoples arc arousing- to the fact that greater aid hell er organized effort is needed from lJ,ristians e,·erywbere. Right at hand a1 c numerous material blessings. The united, ellicienl acti,·ity of church folk sh, uhl be to make these material things serYe spiritual ends. .-'\mong the greater things that oppose Christian e fort in . \ m erica is 1be craze for money. Foreigners actually become fearfi;l of a m()ney-crazecl "\merican Church per·ple, it is to he feared. haYe ,, astecl their forces to a large extent. \1i10no· :-, other clarion calls that come i-., tlie one to s"cial :en·ice, where one must knm\· the Spirit of his l\.Iastcr; must know himself; aml the other man. Cities are to be transformed, desolate plains made fertile by more efficient Chrictia .c effort. To perform these and other equally :.;real tasks, leadership is ne<.c".-,ary. Both in the mini~try and the laity, those who know the way and follm\· it are lrue leaders."

The abo,·e comes echoing from speeches of Otterbein delegates to Lhc ).1en's Congress of the United Brethren Church held at Dayton. On the evening of :'.\fay 14. l\.Iessrs. Nichols, VanSaun, Bierly, Bandeen, and Learish came hack -live coals from this great cong-ress, the end of which, in the \\'Cr~ls of Bishop Dell ··"·as the beginning of a new enterprise." EYery man at Y. :'.\I. C. . \. was made lo feel

39

that the purpose of the Congress was significant of the fact ''that the U. B. church had come to a place in her history where he must draw upon :1er re:;ources," and must endeaYor tq bring- about the Lordship of Jesc1s Christ in men's lives.

Professor L. "\. \Vein land, of Otterbein, was the speaker of the e\'e11i11::;of l\lay :2 l. His subject, ''liig-h Places" dealt ,Yith a complete history of tl!e lsaelifr,h nation. The history of that pee ple shows a continued rising and falling of enthusiasm. \\'hen the people dealt righteously one with the other the time was e pecially prosperous. J n the record of that nalion there are many such mountain top--; " l I igh l'laces."

But between the mountain there are valleys, some wide and deep. \\'hen the children of Israel fargot the blessings of their l lea\·enly Father and ignored the law" p.f High IIeaven they descended frorn the high places to enter the valley.

There they remained and suffered until they were again minded to obey the laws of their Father, when they left the gloom of the valley behind them and again ascended unto the High Places. A personal application cf the e truths to modern living concluded the address.

The evening of May 28 was entirely devoted to the graduation exercises of the students completing the four years Dible study course offered by the Y. 11. C. A. Dr. Sanders, of the faculty of Otterbein took charge of the exercises, delivering an informal "com-

The praises of scores of ~~ t•erbein's graduates whose lives have been mouldered to a large extent in the atinosphere of the Y. M. C. A., call for most loyal support from every student and friend of this institution, that the purposes of the founders of this branch of the Y. M. C. A., may not be trampled in the dust; but that the environment of this association may continue to mould characters for noble living as it has from the· beginning.

Y. W.C.A. May 19, Summer Conference Rally.

Leader, Marion Elliott.

According to the custom of former years, the girls gathered on the campus in front of the Association Building, and enjoyed their picnic supper, which is always a feature of the Summer Conference Rally. Then, just at the sunset hour, in the soft quiet of the early enning, the leader directed the thoughts of the girls to the topic, "What Can I do?" The problem of life may be solved by eliminating

those things that retard our progress, ,uch as pretense, worry and self-seeking. On the other hand we should strive to make it a part of our lives to use time to the best advantage, work faithfully and be true to our friends. By so doing we may fit' ourselves for eternal life.

After this came various talks by girls who had attended the Summer Conference at Eaglesmere.

Nell Shupe told of her experience on the trip, Agnes Drury pointed out the splendid features of the program, Mary Clymer described the grounds, and Maude Owings told of the amusements provided for the enjoyme~t o! guests.

May 26. Topic, Riches a,nd Responsibility. Leader, Stella Kurtz.

Responsibility means that duty or trust for which one is answerable.

The story of the talents shows clearly that every one is endowed with some sort of capability.

If we understand a task we must hold ourselves responsible and perform the work honestly and conscientously, for no one will assume the responsibility for us.

We are accountable for the opinions people have of us,-they will be either good or bad, and we should strive not to do things of which we will be ashamed. · Riches are not given to all of us, but our duty is to do the best with what we have.

Thus by developing the talents that God has bestowed upon us, we prove ourselves worthy of the trust.

Otterbein vs. Denison.

On 1\Iay 21, Otterbein's feathers \Yere dampened by the Baptist aggregation, when the latter dipped the Tan and Cardinal for a 4 to 3 victory. Otterbein proved to be better than their opponents with the bat, but the error column shows why the Denison team was able to claim a Yictory. Campbell did his usual good work on the mound, but his team mates failed to give him the necessary support.

Otterbein vs. Wittenberg.

The Otterbein fans witnessed a base-

ball game on the home field, 1\Iay 23 , that reminded many of the games o[ early boy!Jood, which were played on a ,·acant lot or in some back alley. \Yith hits and errors in profusion it is not surprising that the sum total of runs was twenty-seven.

At first the game seemed to be a !-iure victory for the Lutherans. \Y oocl, who began the throwing for Otterbein was unable to hold his opponents. In less than three innings seven hits were counted against him, and \Vittenberg had sent fiye men across the plate. ·with one man out ·in the third inning, Campbell went on the mound for Otterbein, and from that time things began to change. Although his arm was ore from pitching the Thursday game, Campbell pitched splendid ball.

The fourth inning was entirely Oilerbein 's. They pounded the hall to all parts the lot, and when the third out was made and the dust had settled, the score hoard shO\Ned that even run had been made. Two more were added to this score before the second bombardment of the game came. Tn the ninth inning, Otterbein began t, l duplicate the performance of the fourth. They pounded Ihrig until it ,, as nece sary to send Young to his relief. Even then it was almost impossible to stop the Tan and Cardinal.

The record, which includes all the games up to ~lay :rn, shm1·s that there are four members of the team batting in the three hundred class, with a couple of others very close to that mark.
