Over  hill  and  vale; 

Hail  to  thee.  our  loving  mother,

First  of  all  thy  race,  fond  mother, 

Thus  w e  greet  thee  now, 

While  with  loving  hand  the  laurel 

Twine  we  o'er  thy  brow. 

Backward  through  the  hazy  distan ee

Scenes  and  faces  float  before  us, 

Cherished  morei  and  more.

Abbott  and  the  rest, 

Halcyon  days  were  those  spent  with 

you, 

Days  of  all  the  best. 

Fold  us  fondly  to. your  bosom, 

Alma  Mater,  clear.-

Sing  we  now  their  endless  praises, 

Sounding  cheer  on  cheer.

We'll  raise  them  on  high, 

We'll  fight  for  our  college 

For  her  we  will  die, 

Let's  rouse  the  dead  echoes, 

Unfurl  to  the  light 
The  colors  we  honor, 

The  Gree~  and  the  White. 

We' ll  all  stand  together 
And  honor  will  bring 

To  our  Alma  Mater 

Whose  praises  we  sing. 
Let's  rush  to  the  fray  then, 
Our  foes  put  to  flight, 
For  tlie  colors  we  honor, 

The  Green  and  the  White.

ADVICE  TO  FRESHMEN 

A  freshman  never  takes  advice-that 
is.  he  never  takes  the  brand  which 
tells  him  to  be  good  and  look  out.  The 
suggestions  given  below  are  more  spe 
cific;  they  should  prove  valuable  for 
e very  first-year  student.

days.  Ask  for  advice  about  tearhers 
and  courses  from  upperclassmen  who 
the  department  you 
have  worken 
are  entering.  Don' t 
for  an 
"easy"  instru c tor .  but  rather  for  one 
whom  you  learn  is  fair.  Try  to  make 
up  ~·o ur mind  just  what  you  intend  to 
do 
let  all  your 
~tuclles  lead  up  to  that.  Pick  those 
courses  which  bear  as  closely  as  pos 
sible  on  your  future  profession.

What  to  Join  and  Subscribe  ~or

g rinding  away

value  a  college  training  ought  to  bring

may  be  the  most  well-read  or  the  most 
learned  man  for  miles  around,  but  he 
has  not  acquired  the  ability  to  meet 
men.  vVhile  you  are  in  college,  get  out

sorbed  In  student  activities  at  the  ex 
pe nse  of  your  studies.  Aim  for  a  hap 
py  medium. 

Every  freshman  should  subscribe  for 
the  Holcad.  There  is  no  way  in  which 
a  new  student  can  become  more 
quicl<ly  acquainted  with  campus  hap 
penings  than  by  a  careful  reading  of 
the  student  newspaper.  The  price  is 
$1.00  for  the  school  year  and  it  is  pub 
lished  weekly  by  the  students. 

The  Y.  M.  C.  A.  is  an  organization 
which 
the  freshman  must  determine 
for  himself  whether  he  wishes  to  join. 
At  present  its  work  is  limited  on  ac 
count  of  c ramped  quarters,  but  its 
good  influence  on  the  religious  side  of 
student  life 
is  unqu estionable.  Th e 
membership  fee  is  $1.00,  payable  be 
fore  December  1st.

"Swiping" 

Dealings  with  Merchants 
Lansing  merchants  say  that students 
may  be  capricious  but  that  they  are 
thoroughly 
or 
cheating  is  not  a  part  of  college  eti 
quette ,  despite  the  trend  of  some  of 
the  so-called  college  stories.  Deal 
honorably  with  th e  merchants  and  be 
carefu l  not  to  run  up  bills  that  you 
cannot  pay  within  a  reasonable  time. 
Banking 
Have  your  money  sent  from  home  in 
the  form  of  drafts,  post  office  money 
orders,  or  express  orders.  You  will 
have  trouble  cashing  checks  from. your 
take 
town.  The  college  will 
home 
your  money  and  give  you  a  book  and 
you  can  draw  h ere  on  the  campus 
whenever  you  need  funds. 

Social  Life 

Remember  that  you  are  on  your  own 
responsibi lity  h ere,  but  that  you  are 
only  here  as  long  as  you  prove  your 
se lf  at  least  fairly  well  fit  to  assume 
that  responsibility.  You  can  go  to  a

desire,  but  you  can't  do  this  long,  be  
cause  you  won't  be  able  to  •keep  up 
your  studies  and  your  health. 

However,  every  freshman  should  get 

out  and  meet  students  in  all  depart 
ments  and  classes  of  the  College.  Try 
to  meet  as  many  persons  as  you  can, 
hccauso  East  Lansing  and  Lansing  are 
full  of  interesting  people  in  a ll  posi 
tions  and  you  can  derive  a  great  deal 
of  information  and  pleasure  in  coming 
in  contact  with  a lmost  anyone,  once 
l ou  have  acquired 
the  knack  of 
"warming  up"  to  a  new  acquaintance 
and  making  yourse lf  entertaining. 

S tud ies 

K eep  up  your  studies.  Dozens  of 

freshmen  leave  school  before  the  holi 
days  every  year,  and  in  many  C'ases 
the  only  cause  is  that  the  student  has 
been  carried  away  by  the  novelty  of 
the  new  life,  and  has  not  studied  hard 
the  first  two  or  three  weeks.  This  is 
an 
time.  Teac hers  form 
their  opinions  largely  during  U1e  open  
ing·  wee·ks  of  the  term,  and  the  fresh 
man  that  gets  a  poor  start  thru  neg 
lect,  is  badly  handicapped .

There  are  but  a  few  instru c tors  who

Invitation 
to  all  students,  earnestly 
interested  in · the  work  the  Y.  M.  C.  A. 
is  doing,  to  join  with  us  the  first  wee!< 
of  the  fall  term. 

Personal  Work 
The  Y.  Is  not  fulfilling  its  purpose 
unless  its  attention  is  given 
lo  the 
problems  of  each  individual,  and  its 
aid  given  In  their  solution.  Personal 
interviews  are  the  especial  province 
of  this  committee,  with  the  Intention 
of  bringing  men  together  in  a  closer 
community  of  interest  which  will  re 
su lt  in  mutual  benefit. 

The  work  of  the  committee  has  been 

directed  along  two  other  lines.

Deputation  Work 
Following  the  usual  custom,  a  num 
ber  of  men  were  sent  out,  this  year  to 
Ashley,  where  the  county  Y.  M.  C.  A.

Following  this, 
meetings  were  ·held  and  the  founda 
tions  laid  for  a  local  Y.  M.  C.  A.  The 
college  men 's  enthusiasm  and  inspira 
tion  seemed  particularly  contagious. 
More  of  this  work  will  be  done  next 
fall  and  winter. 

Lake  Geneva 
During  the  spring  term  no  idea  hae 
been  so  constantly  in  view  as  the  In· 
terstate  Students'  Conference  at  Lai<e 
Geneva, 
"Twenty-five 
men  at  Lake  Geneva"  has  been  th e 
slogan  throughout  the  year,  and  th e 
response  has  been  most  gratifying-. 

June  13-20. 

The  men  made  the  trip  last  spring. 
expecting  to  obtain  the  following:  (1) 
Tnstructions  along  the  lin es  of  Bible 
and  Mission  study,  with  their  applica

(2)Recreation.-one  of  the  best  10-da~·

where.  and  an  excellent  rest  after  the 
strain  of  a  year  in  the  class  room :

"Piration.-the  vision  of  a  large r  and 
fuller  life ,  and  a  greater  opportunity

It  is  only  necessary  to 
say  that  the  effects  of  the  confe renc e 
will  be  apparent  in  all  the  work  of  th e 
Association,  during  the  present  year. 

The  Value  of  Bible  Study 
Did  you  come·  to  M.  A.  C.  to  work 
a nd  sec ure  an  education?  No  educa 
tion  is  entirely  complete  and  no  work 
they  are 
truly  worth  while  unless 
based  on  sound  principles. 
Those 
J)t'ineiples  a r e  to  be  found  between  the 
l wo  <·ov ers  of  that  old  dusty  Bible 
that  you  brought  to  College  in 
the 
bottom  of  your  trunk.  Get  It  out, 
brush  off  the  dust,  then  join  a  Y.  M. 
C.  A.  Bible  Study  Class  and  get  a c  
quainted  with  it. 

We  expe ct  you  to  be  a  man  in  every 
rnspec t  while  in  College  and  out  of 
College:  we  want  you  to  develop  and 
gTo'v  in  a  manner  that  will  make  y our 
life  an  in f1 uen<:e  for  good  among  men. 
T here  is  a  dema11d  for  young  men  of 
sterlin g·  Christian  character ,  today,  in 
t he  gTea l  fie lds  of  soc iety  and  indus 
tr y .  This  dema nd  must  be  suppli ed 
by  the  colleges.  A  careful  study  of 
the  Bible  along  with  your  other  Col 
lege  work,  will  'bette r  fit  you  for  posi 
tions  of  responsibility  and  trust.  A 
knowl e dge  of  the  Bibl e  is  th e  begin 
ning  of  wisdom,  so  be  wise  and  study 
it,  think  about  it,  profit  by  it. 

Mission  Study 
In  the  winter  term  the  Y.  IV!.  C.  A . 
stud y  r·la~ s es  ta k e  up  the  investigation 
of  the  physical,  economic  and  religious 
1·011ditions  in  the  foreign  countries,  be 
lieving·  that  if  a  man  is  to  be  a  full 
l'O unded  college  man  his  S<;ope  must 
extend  beyond  his  own  c ountry. 

Last  winter  11  c lasses  were  c on 
clucted  in  the  Study  of  China,  under 
the  g eneral  leadership  of  P1·of.  Myers.

this  course  previously.  Fo1- advanced

It  you  don't  think  that  it  will · be

ing  in  one  of  these  classes,  ask  any 
body  who  was  enrolled 
last  year. 
They'll  tell  you  the  right  answer. 

Membership 

Perhaps  the  biggest  disappointment 
in  the  Association  has  been  -the  com-
1 a rativefy  ·small  number  of  men  who 
have  been 'members of  the  Association. 
!•;very  man  in  college  can  and  .should 
be  a  member  of  the  Y.  M.  C.  A.  The 
main  reason  why  men  have  not  been 
members  is  probably  because  we  have 
not  many  privileges  to  offer. 

The  men  that  belong  to  the  Young 
Men's  Christian  Association  of 
the 
College  at  the  present  time  do  so  ·be 
cause  of  what  they  can  do  and  not 
because  of  what  they  can  get.  The 
service  basis  of  membership  has  taken 
the  place  of  the  privilege  basis. 

We  are  encouraging  and  educating 

men  to  take  part  in  the  religious  af 
fairs  while  they  are  in  school. 
In  so 
doing  we  are  doing  the  best  thing  for 
them  so  far  as  the  church  and  social 
betterment  in  their  home.  community 
is  concerned.  The  policy  of  the  mem 
bership  committee  for  the  next  year 
is  to  get  men  interested  in  the  Asso 
ciation  because  of  its  benefits  to  stu 
dent  life  and  to  the  city  in  general. 
This  is  the  ground  on  which  they  are 
going  after  new  members  this  year. 
The  student  membership  fee 
is  $1.00

TO  THE  READER 

The Handbook has  set  a  new  mark 
for  itself  this  year,  not  only  in  the 
amount of  advertising that it  is  carry 
ing,  but also,  we  hope,  in  the  quality 
of  the  book.  T he  book  has  been  im 
proved  at  considerable  cost  and  the 
advertisements  have  made  this  poss 
ible.  They  are reliable,  and  the  ad 
vertisers will  use  you  well  and square 
ly.  We trust  that  when  you  are  in 
need of  materials  of  any  kind,  you 
index. 
will  consult  our  advertising 
The prosperity  of  the  book  depends 
upon  the maintenance of this increased 
advertising,  and  that  depends  upon 
your  patronage.  The  book  is  pre 
sented to you gratis and we  only  ask 
that you  help us keep the co-operation 
of our advertisers.  You  can  do  this 
by calling the merchant's attention  to 
his  advertisement  in  the  Handbook. 
Do  not fail  to  do  your part.

The  People's  Church  (Congregation

adjoins  the  college  campus,  was  or

long  felt 
need  on  the  part  of  the  people  of  the 
for  an  organization  and 
con11nunity 
institution  that  would  meet  the  social 
a nd  religious  needs  of  the  community. 
After  the  completion  of  the  organiza 
tion,  two  years  were  spent  in  planning 
a  building  that  would  serve  the  i:;om 
munity  as  a  social  and  religious  cen 
ter,  with  the  result  that  the  present 
edifi ce  was  built  and  now  aims 
to 
serve 
the  community  in  its  various 
activities.  On  the  first  floor  are  found 
finely

The  church  motto,  "The  Church
