Coggin Society
The Coggin Society formerly
known as "The Coggin Literary
Society" is the oldest club on the
campus. It was organized on the
campus of Daniel Baker College
in 1911 and wib named in mem-
ory of our benefactor. S. R. Cog-
gin. The purpose of this organiza-
tion is to support the Alma Mater
in all worthy causes. II Is the
sister oigaulzation of the "II" As-
sociation. Membership in the Coggin So-
ciety is confined to girls who are
upper classmen. The officers are
chosen by popular vote of the club
witli only juniors and seniors eli-
gible for nomination. The Coggin
pledges are chosen from a group
of girls who are on probation for
one year and who if proven
worthy then become a member.
Every girl must be acceptable to
all of the active members of the
Society in order to be pledged.
Among the chief social functions
for this year are: a "(Set Acquaint-
ed Tea" in the home of a member
a Christmas party the annual
lmii(uet given for the football boys
and followed by an all-student
dance dinner by club sponsor Mra.

Introducing The
Science Deportment
Science has many values: it
helps one to better understand life
it teaches the student to think it
leaches the student to follow direc-
tions and many other values that
I take not the time and space to
mention here.
Daniel Baker College is well
equipped to offer study In biology
chemistry and physics.
The biology department under
tho head of Dr. Wesley is one of
the most modern and equipped to
be found in any Texas college.
New equipment well organized
laboratories and completely stock-
ed store room go to make Dr. Wes-
ley's deportment a success. Dr.
Wesley offers u course which will
appeal to the student with only
n general interest in the subject
and which at the same time will
give a solid foundation for the
student witli a direct professional
interest In biology. Also a course
suitable for the student with no
previous training in tho subject
yet with a point of view and a
skeleton of material which will im-
press the student with high school
biology and is in no sense redoing
of ids earlier work. Biology is a
course in which the student will
think through tho subject for him-
self. In this course the pro-medical
student and the major in other
sciences will find much for his own
rpecific Interest. Tho Daniel Ba-
ker Chemistry Department is heud-
cd by Professor Jones. Ho gives
Ids freshmen students tho funda-
mental piinciples of chemistry anil
explains them in a simple langu-
age. Tho illustrative matter is
drawn from tho experience of dally
life An elementary discussion of
atomic structure is presented for
we of the science department find
students have an unusual interest
in tills subject. In tho first ycur
course supplementary work is
provided for tho students who huve
the habit of exploring realms be-
yond the limit of prescribed work.
Students can profit by this study
of chemistry und supplementary
work. A balnnco between theore-
tical and applied science is main-
tained throughout the course
For thoso who wish to follow
tho study of chemistry advancod
