|BRUSKE REMEMBERED.
By Greetings From First Chapel
Services Of Year
PRES. BLA|sDELL PAID TRIBUTE
To Former PreSIdent-Many Visitors were
Present at the Exercises

At the opening chapel exercises
last Tuesday morning President
Blaisdell paid many glowing tributes
to the splendid work of DR.. Bruske
during his twenty-one years of SER
vice at Alma College as president.
He told Of how the institution had
grown in its relation to other col
leges, also in its endowment and value
OF its property The endowment hav-
ing been increased from eighty thou
sand to four hundred thousand dol
lars; and the college property from
one hundred thirty-hve thousand to
five hundred eighty-fve thousand dol
lars. A remarkable showing and a
splendid monument for any man.
After DIR. Blaisdells brief address
he suggested that it would be fitting
that a greeting be sent DR.. Bruske
from the first chapel exercises of the
year The following resolution was
Immediately offered by one of the
student body and seconded by a
member of the faculty:
Il move that the students and fac
ulty of Alma. College send DR.. Bruske
from this first chapel service of the
year their cordial greetings, and fur
ther that they assure him of their
deep appreciation of his many years
of self-sacriticing service at Alma and
of their sincere desire that he may
have all success and God-speed in
his new field of labor
DR.. Blaisdell then asked all who
favored the resolution to rise and in
On instant every person in the chapel
was on his feet. So in accordance to
the motion the resolution was sent
to DR. Bruske.
Many visitors were present at the
exercises.
DIR. Bruske is located at Holland,
Michigan, where he is pastor OF the
Dutch Reformed church of that city.
This is the Hope College church, so
the Doctor still continues his work
in connection with college; although
I in another capacity and in connection
with another institution The people
of Holland and the students of Hope
College are very fortunate to secure
man with so broad an experience
and strong vigorous body coupled
with his exceptional ability in the
pulpit and strong character as pastor
Of their church.

GIRLS STUNT PARTY.

The annual reception to the new
girls was given Saturday evening at
eight o'clock in the Wright Hall re-
ception room. The affair was opened
with a FREELY grand march, which
was characterized by faint illumina-
tons and Japanese punk in the girls
hair. Each girl was given half of a
Japanese lantern and was told to find
the one who held the other half
Amid much fun and laughter partners
were sorted out and the march begun.
The FREELY effect was very striking
Dainty refreshments were served
by petite japanese girls, and the guests
were regaled with quantities of de-
licious sandwiches, salad, cocoa
waters and marshmallows. Never
before was such feast
Then came the stunt party which
was certainly bowling success, and
as good one has has ever been seen
in Wright Hall. There was the Lii
liputian dance, given by large headed
creatures, whose feet looked remark
ably familiar Later all were shown
how Miss Alma entertains when she
gets her dates mixed. This number
brought down the house.
Coupe de theatre was a ridiculous
representation of the college choir as
organized this year. How familiar
they all looked.
Well, it was all lots of fun and a
great success, as everyone can testify
who heard the peals of laughter
imounting through the halls.

"ALL TOGETHER NOW"

OF all the arts, music is the most
Every normal human being has felt
the mystic and delightful appeal of
music. The desire for it, the need of
it is universal. 1t inspires, consoles,
rests, stimulates, educates and refnes
any individual or community that
will heed its universal language.
| know no better way to stimulate
the desire for the enobling influence
of music than by giving the study and
practice of il a larger place in col
lege life To this end choral club
will be organized in the chapel at
1880 Tuesday evening. All students
and townspeople are most earnestly
urged to be present if they sing ever
so little.
"The Rose Maiden" beautiful
cantata by Frederic Cowen, will be
studied and produced in December
with the assistance of prominent Chi
cago artists. In the spring, a festival
concert will be given. No student is
truly educated who goes out from
preciate the great masterpieces of
music as we'll as literature and art
Young people who would shun dime
novels and degrading literature seem
blind to the evil effects of popular
trashy songs. Such an organization
as is intended will not only increase
the appreciation of good music. but
will elevate the popular taste. After
having studied carefully the wonder
fully beautiful harmonies of the mas
ters, shallow indeed is the person
who will content himself with "Waltz
me around again, Willie" Every
college of any size or importance
maintains such a society. 1t can be
made the means of much pleasure
and uplift to college life.
A successful choral club cannot be
organized by a few, be they ever so
earnest. We must all get together.
The $4,000 car of organized musical
activity lies in the ditch. Shall we
not all secure firm hold and do our
share in lifting her out. Alma col
lege should have choral club of one
hundred voices. We can do it if we
will. Remember the time and place,
Tuesday evening at 1880 in the chapel
Rehearsals will occupy only an hour,
beginning and closing promptly.
Very sincerely,
REESE +. VEATCH.

HAS A HARD PROBLEM.

+. NJ. Vandercook, secretary of the
Board of Education, was in Grand
Rapids last Friday where he pur-
chased seventy-hve new seats for the
accommodation of the children who
could not be cared for in the public
schools.
In all probability the board of edu-
cation will be compelled to lease adj
ditional room, perhaps in one of the
churches to care for this surplus of
scholars. Superintendent Dawson as
well as the teachers are doing every
thing in their power to make the stu
dents as comfortable as possible
