Benediction_________Dr. J. C. Hardy
Dr. Hardy delivered an unusually
eloquent address on the subject, “Edu-
cation as 'a factor in the development
of a commonwealth or a nation.”
From the outset the speaker showed
that he was exceedingly familiar with
the subject of education. He said in
part: “Everyone should thrill when
he remembers that he has a task in
this life. Especially is this true of
the teacher who moulds young lives
by sending out his own life as a stream
into the lives of those entrusted to his
care.” To prove the significant effects
of education, Dr. Hardy contrasted
Texas with Mexico. The former he
looks upon as imperial Texas with her
waving fields of grain, large herds of
cattle, gigantic factories, beautiful
homes, and a happy people. Just across
the Rio Grande is sin benighted, sin
cursed Mexico, filled with miserable
shacks, scrub cattle, small patches for
farms, and a miserable race of people.
And all of this is due to the ignorance
of her citizens—an ignorance brought
about by the lack of great teachers.
Continuing Dr. Hardy showed clearly
v/hat education has done for Japan in
the last seventy-five years. On account
of her interest in education Japan now
ranks as one of the five great world

Y. W. C. A. PDTS OUT
MEMBERSHIP CAMPAIGN
Membership Committee to Make Great
Drive by Visiting Boarding Houses
Thursday, Friday and Saturday of
next week, June 21, 22 and 23, there
will be a membership drive staged by
the Y. W. C. A. The membership com-
mittee of the Y. W. C. A., under Miss
Ruth Reed, will have charge of the
drive. The committee will be divided
into two teams, the blues and whites,
each of which will have its own captain.
Not only will there be a table in the
hall of the main building, but each
boarding house will be visited by mem-
bers of each team. The two teams are
contesting to see which one can secure
the most new members.
There is no membership fee, but only
dues of fifty cents that can be paid at
any time. Any woman student is eligi-
ble to become a member, provided she
can sign her name to the following
pledge:
“It is my purpose to live as a true
follower of the Lord Jesus Christ.”

INTERESTING LECTURE
NEXT SATURDAY NIGHT
Are Mars and other planets inhabit-
ed ? What keeps the sun hot and where
is it at midnight? Why are some stars
red and others blue? What is the
earth? Where did it come from? These
are a few of the questions to be answer-
ed by Dr. A. M. Harding, noted plat-
form lecturer, also profesor of mathe-
matics and astronomy at the University
of Arkansas, when he addresses the stu-
dents of the State Teachers College on
“Other Worlds Than Ours” Saturday,
June 23.
The address will be illustrated by-
scores of lantern slides showing tele-
scopic photographs of the sun, the moon,
the stars, the comets and meteors, and
other heavenly bodies.
The audience will be taken on a jour-
ney through the universe with stops
being made on all objects of interest.
The students of the State Teachers Col-
lege will therefore have a rare oppor-
tunity of attending an astronomical pic-
ture show.
The revival of interest in the study
of man and his relation to the universe
makes Dr. Harding’s subject one of ap-
pealing interest. It is hoped that towns-
people as well as students will take ad-
vantage of this opportunity to become
better acquainted with the universe iq
which they live.
“T” ASSOCIATION HOLDS
REGULAR ANNUAL MEET
Vannie Perkins to Lead I ettermeh
Coming Year.
The “T” Association met in its second
annual smoker at the Elks Club rooms
Friday night, May 25. The chief object
of the meeting was to bring all the
wearers of the official college “T” to-
gether for a good time in the discus-
sion of past achievements on the ath-
letic field and incidentally to elect new
officers for the association and new cap-
tains for the coming year’s athletic
teams.
The attendance this year was far larg-
er than last year and is a fair indication
of the strength this association will
have in the future. Over sixty athletes
were in attendance, plus the eight can-
didates, last year letter makers who
were, aspiring to be members of this
strong association.
President Shelton presided over the.
meeting in his usual capable manner,
and was assisted by Henry Shands, sec-
retary, and Claude Kellam and Jessie
Kallam, chairmen of the initiation and
refreshment committees respectively.
After the group had told and retold
most of the brilliant achievements of
athletic days in the past, the assem-
blage" was called into the election of*
officers. Vannie Perkins, hero of the
Bobcats’ football and baseball past,
present athletic supervisor of the Cam-
eron high school, was unanimously
elected to fill the president’s chair. Em-
mett Shelton, past star of our football,
basketball and track successes, was
elected to the responsible secretaryship.
Jovial “Big Ed” Kallina was called
upon to protect the association in the
capacity of sergeant of arms.
Henry Hack Shands, past secretary,
was elected to the vice presidency.
Alfred Weir was chosen by his tdam-
mates to captain the track team of the
coming year. Weir has proven himself
to be one of the fastest men on the cin-
der path in the state, he is a hard work-
er, a universally popular student and
will do his best to carry off the T. I.
A. A. honors next spring.
Ed Kallina, the popular star of our
basketball, football and baseball past,
mas signally honored when he was
elected to both the basketball and foot-
ball captainship.
The “T” Association is probably the
strongest organization connected with
the Southwest Texas Teachers College.
It has a strong representation in many
high schools of the state as well as a
well organized group that is upholding
the high standards of the college “T”
each regular term. The men who instill
the high standards of sportsmanship
into the high school athletes are bet-
tering the people as a whole and inci-
dentally serve to prove the worth of
such an organization.
WELCOME RECEPTION
AT BIG GYM GIVEN
New Students Enjoy Themselves as
Guests of Faculty, Y. W.
and Y. M.
County superintendents and judges
were in authority on the evening of
Monday, June 11, their domain being
the big gym, and their subjects the
students of S. W. T. C. for the summer
session- The occasion was college night,
an entertainment given by the Y. M. C.
A. and the Y. W. C. A. and the faculty
for the new students.
The chief feature of the evening’s fun
was the Hays County track meet, at
which eleven counties were well repre-
sented. The athletic events included the
100-yard dash, 220-yard dash, 440-yard
dash, pole vault, broad jump and high
jump. All of these events were hotly
contested.
Wilson and DeWitt Counties tied for
honors. Wilson County was finally de-
clared the winner and was awarded a
beautifully carved silver loving cup,
from which waved banners of maroon
and gold.
The literary events had to be called
off due to darkness falling unexpect-
edly.
Guests of Hays County were served
with lollypops and ice cream cones.
The superintendents who so nobly of-
ficiated and the counties they represent-
ed are as follows: Hays County, Ruth
Johnson; Travis County, Mildred Sum-
mers ; Caldwell County, Rossy Mead-
ows ; Bexar County, Eula Byles; Guad-
alupe County, Charlie Jowell; William-
son County, Jack Horton; Bee County,
Julia Taylor; McClellan County, Supt.
Hodge; Wilson County, L. C. McDon-
ald; DeWitt County, Arlin Johnson.
The judges for the meet were Mrs.
Woodson, Miss Mamie Brown, Mr. Har-
ison, Mr. Burkholder and Mr. Tanner.
Dr. Nolle served as town crier and
general manager.

PRESIDENT C. E.
EVANS AWARDED
HONORARY DEGREE
Southwestern University Confers L.L.D.
On Noted Texas Educator; Dr.
Evans Has Made Remarkable
President of S. W. T. C.
President C. E. Evans of the South-
west Texas State Teachers College at
San Marcos has been signally honored
by having the Doctor of Law Degree
conferred upon him by the Southwestern
University at the commencement exer-
cises of the university at Georgetown.
President Evans is a thorough school
man as is evidenced by his raising of
the standards of the college and the
growth that the college has experienced
under his guidance since the year 1911.
The degree conferred upon him is a
fitting mark of distinction for his work
in school and public affairs of the state.
Dr. Evans came to San Marcos and
entered upon his duties as president of
the Southwest Texas State Normal
School, as this institution was then call-
ed,. in 1911.
That President Evans has made a de-
cided success in his administration of
the college is evidenced by the steady
betterment of the physical plant since
his arrival. As examples we might
mention the building of the industrial
arts building, containing ten rooms with
all modern equipment; the education
building of reinforced concrete, with a
large auditorium; the large and up-to-
date college gymnasium; the demonstra-
tion cottage, a frame cottage handsome-
ly equipped and large enough for sev-
eral girls to secure practical experience
in household accounts, buying, planning
and serving meals, each term; the pow-
er house, containing boiler and engine
rooms, and shops equipped for the
forging and metal work shops of the
industrial arts department; the cafe-
teria, a frame structure, amply supplied
with attractive furniture and equipment
for dining; the hospital, a frame cottage
with enough rooms to accommodate
twelve patients at a time; the gymna-
sium, a frame structure, 104x74, well
arranged for all indoor athletics and
gymnastic exercises, and fully equipped
with convenient showers, lockers and
club rooms in the basement; Evans
Field, an excellent athletic field of five
acres, and Riverside, the finest swim-
ming resort in the Southwest, as many
of you summer students have already
found out and are willing to vouch for.
In addition to these improvements the
college has now a library of some 16,000

1923 PEDAGOGUE
SCORES BIG HIT
Year Book Shows Excellent Work On
Part of Staff
Everyone is proud of this year’s an-
nual, and justly so. It seems a little
thing to speak of our annual from a ma-
terialistic point of view, when it is the
true sentiment of the thing that counts.
The “Star” feels a wealth of appre-
ciation for the Pedagog, for the artistic
beauty of the binding, the representa-
tive material and the general excellence
contained in its pages. We wish and
offer sincere congratulations to the edi-
tors for their efforts put forth toward
its success. The Pedagog is representa-
tive of hours of earnest work and un-
mistakable talent. There is no substi-
tute for the inestimable influence that
is created by the existence of an an-
nual of this type. The annual gives
the individual the idea of the school
activities working as a unit, that the
feeling existing between the student
body and the faculty is one of mutual
sympathy and understanding, and that
the various organizations of the col-s
lege are functioning in the liveliest
manner posible, which when said is
symbolic of all that goes to make col-
lege life.

PROMINENT INSTRUCTORS BACK
Welcome home again, Professors
Woodson, Thomas and Ingenhuett.
After a lapse of a few months we -see
again your smiling faces as you mean-
der over the campus to and fro from
classes, stopping here and there to chat
vftth students, new and old It is in-
deed a great pleasure to catch a glimpse
of these expansive grins. On closer
notice one can discover that they are
much broader than those of last sum-
mer. This is undoubtedly true because
of the vast amount of knowledge which
has been added to your already enor-
mous stock.
. Mr. Woodson has just returned from
George Peabody College at Nashville,
Tenn Here, it is reported, that he
had a most enjoyable time and at the
same time secured his Master’s De-
gree. Of course, Mr. Woodson wrote
his thesis on psychology. To be exact,
it was written on some phase of pure
psychology. It may be interesting to
hear also that while in attendance at
Peabody Mr. Woodson was selected to

ALUMNI BANQUET PRO-
NOUNCED BY MANY AS
ONE GRAND SUCCESS
Ex-Students of Teachers College As-
semble at Cafeteria on Saturday
to Renew Old Acquaintances
The alumni banquet held Saturday
night, June 4, at the Teachers College
cafeteria was a pronounced success
from start to finish.
L. C. McDonald of Eagle Lake, who
was president of the association last
year and was re-elected at the 1923
banquet, was master of ceremonies
M. L- Arnold, member of the Teach-
ers College faculty, made the address
of welcome to the visitors. The rre-
sponse for the class of 1903 was made
by Mrs. Walter H. Harrison; for the
class of 1904 by Mrs. Loula Bowen,
member of the faculty at Baylor Col-
lege, Belton; for the class of 1911 by
Mrs. Anna Harrison and for the class
of 1922-23 by Alfred Ivey.
President C. E. Evans made the ad-
dress of the evening. H. A. Nelson,
of the college faculty, spoke of the
alumni loan fund.
The banquet lasted from 8:30 until
11:30 o’clock and the college spirit was
at its height.
During the courses and between
speeches lively, peppy songs were sung
showing the enthusiasm of the guests
and the school pirit that prevailed.
Hand painted place cards with the col-
lege flower, the gail lardie (“old
maids”), marked places for seventy-five
persons. The program and menu book-
lets were hand painted with the Teach-
ers College silhoueted in maroon against
a background of gold.
The color scheme, maroon and gold,
was carried out in the table decorations,
which featured the gail lardia in vases
at intervals down the length of the
table. Each guest wore a peeked cap
of maroon and gold. The four courses
were served by the girls of the H. E.
department of the college.

BURKHALTER-MORROW
Wyatt Burkhalter, student in the
Teachers College for the last two years,
and Miss Davida Morrow, here in 1921-
22, and who has been teaching in Ok-
lahoma the last year, sprang a surprise
on their friends when they were united
in the holy bonds of matrimony last
Tuesday morning in Fort Worth, Texas.
After spending the summer on his farm
in East T^xas Mr. and Mrs. Burkhal-
ter will return to San Marcos in Sep-
tember to continue their work on de-
grees. The Star wishes to congratulate
this young couple and extend to them
wishes for happiness.

Roger Porter Elected President; Se-
niors Show Outburst of ‘Pep*
Thursday at chapel hour, twenty-six
very wise looking people—Seniors, of
course—met to perfect their class ma-
chinery. There were some eight or
nine Seniors not present—possibly they
haven’t yet learned where the bulletin
board is, or maybe some of those not
getting their degrees this summer are
rather bashful about attending. But
the meeting was 100 per cent strong
in intellect, initiative and "pep.”
The election of officers, of course,
was first in order, with Mr Jesse Kel-
lam as temporary chairman. The elec-
tion for president was positively thrill-
ing as we had two very popular and
efficient nominees, Mr. Roger Porter
and Mr. Jesse Kellam. After a very
close ballot (Mr. Porter was elected.
The other elections were less thrilling,
but had the following results: Mr.
Gregory, vice president; Mrs. R. C.
Harrison, secretary-treasurer; Mr. Hil-
dreth and Mr. Johnson, members of
the Student Welfae Council.
The proceedings of the meeting were
as “peppy” as were the members of
the class and their Officers There was
a unanimous vote that our student wel-
fare representatives “write the Seniors
down” as being in favor of spending
the summer, 1923, blanket tax on the
summer, 1923, stuednt body. Then,
too, the class was in favor of a “Senior
hop,” to be staged at the “gym” with
all the necessary accessories—music
and the dean’s approval, etc.—which
accessories to be arranged for by a
committee of five plus the chairman.
Seniors who were here the recent
past regular term know that the 1923
June Seniors had the size, unity of pur-
pose and unity of spirit that no other
degree class of S. W. T. T. C. has
known. Now the Summer, 1923, class
certainly has more size and apparently
a commensurate increase in spirit.
Heretofore, the pulse, or heart (which-

REV. DRAPER DELIVERS
COMMENCEMENT SERMON
Presiding Elder From Beeville Empha-
sizes Value of Service
The twentieth annual commencement
sermon was delivered by Rev. H. E.
Draper, presiding elder, Beeville. Rev.
Draper chose as his theme “The Great-
est Unfinished Task of Man Is to En-
large His Understanding of the Infinite
God in Order to Walk Worthy of
Him.”
In developing his theme, the speaker
called attention to the fact that if peo-
ple are to wralk worthy of God and in-
crease in knowledge of their Master,
they must render a distinct service to
their fellow men. Rev. Draper agreed
in the main with H. G. Wells’ selection
of the six greatest men of all time: Je-
sus Christ, Buddha, Asoka, Aristotle,
Roger Bacon and Lincoln, because each
of these men came into the world not
to be served but to serve.
Rev. Draper concluded by saying that
obedience is one of the most fruitful
graces of the human heart and that
God has crowned it in his kingdom as
shown in the statement, “Any one who
shall do His will, will know God.”
Following is the program as given:

NEW ADDITION TO
MUSIC DEPT. MADE
Two Talented Artists Favor S. W. T.
T. C. With Their Presence
Miss Mary Kroger of San Antonio,
pupil of Mary Jordan, is in charge of
the voice class for the Southwest Texas
Teachers College. The college con-
gratulates itself upon Miss Kroger’s
presence and upon this new addition
to the music department.
The violin class is in charge of Miss
Margaret Downie of Austin. Miss
Downie is a graduate of the Detroit
Conservatory, has studied and taught
violin for two years in New York City
and two summers in Chicago. We hope
that a large number of music lovers,
both in the college and in town, will
avail themselves to this rare opportunity
of having violin lessons with Miss
Downie.
Miss Kroger is in the college on
Wednesday and Saturday, Miss Downie
on Tuesday and Friday. Credit is given
in these courses on the same basis as
the piano lessons with Miss Stevens.

BAND CONCERTS ATTRACT
LARGE CROWDS
Director Edwin L. Barrow Leads Fine
Town Band
The concerts given at the public
square last night and last Friday eve-
ning by the San Marcos Independent
Band attarcted large crowds, and ev-
eryone, so far as we have been able to
determine, were not only surprised at
the splendid music by the band, but
also delighted with the excellent pro-
grams.
The band is under the leadership of
the same Edwin Barrow who, during
the last three years, has so ably led
the Teachers College Band and who
saw in the struggling efforts of the
San Marcos Independents a chance for
service when he was asked to assume
the directorship of the municipal band.
Mr. Barrow took charge last fall and
since that time he has developed a band
that no town the size of San Marcos
can boast of. Hats off to Ed.

Unusually Large Number of Attractive
Courses Offered to Large Student
Body; Faculty Increased
The twentieth summer session of the
Southwest Texas State Teachers Col-
lege opened Wednesday, June 6, the
first day bringing the registration well

the first day that the college has ever
enrolled on the opening day.
Since then registration has gone on
and the credit students now number
approximately 1,350, the summer nor-
mal students about 500 and the training
school approximately 150, thus making
a total of 2,000 students.
In connection with the regular sum-
mer sesion a summer normal is con-
ducted under the regulations of the
state department of education, closing
August 6-9 with the state examinations
leading to the various grades of cer-
tificates.
Although the summer school faculty,
which consists of fully seventy mem-
bers, is composed largely of teachers
employed during the long sesison, a
number of leading educators from the
public school system of this state are
employed.
Among the new members for the
summer normal- are: C. A. Peterson,
superintendent city schools, Eastland,
who was an efficient teacher in the
summer normal last year, and who
will be the conductor for the present
session; Jos. C. Tucker, superintendent
of city schools, Brenham, an A-l man
on last year’s faculty; Daniel Smith,
principal of city schools, Yoakum, with
the normal last summer, knows math,
from A to Z; Ed M. Day, superinten-
dent of city schools, Gonzales, hail-
well-met-fellow, who needs no intro-
duction to San Marcos people; L. J.
Berry, superintendent city schools, San
Marcos, one of the best school men in
this section of the state; E. B. Stover,
superintendent city schools, Orange, on
the summer normal faculty for several
years, acquainted with every detail of
summer normal work; L. C. McDonald,
principal city schools, Eagle Lake, a
tip-top school man, a product of the
Teachers College; M. V. Peterson, su-
perintendent of city schools, Yorktown,
an “old timer” on the summer normal
faculty, believes in work in spite of
the hot weather; J. H. Morgan, super-
intendent of city schools, Eagle Lake,
another old timer on the summer nor-
mal faculty but “a good man anywhere
you put him;” T. K. Morris, principal
of Westover school, an expert on rural
school conditions; M. L. Hurst, princi-
pal of city schools, Mexia, a new man
who comes with the highest recom-
mendations.
For the regular faculty the follow-
ing have been added: R. E. Garlin,
principal of high school, Marlin, Eng-
lish ; 0. E. Deviney, Austin, history;
Willie Ward Watkins, Austin, Spanish

DR. BRUCE RESIGNS AS
HEAD of D. T. COLLEGE
To Be President Emeritus and Profes-
sor of Education; Relieved of
Official Responsibilities
At the meeting of the board ot re 5
gents of the Teachers Colleges Satur-
day, May 26,' Dr. W. H. Bruce, who
for the past seventeen years has been
president of N. T. T. C., tendered his
resignation. This step was taken be-
cause the serious condition ct Mrs.
Bruce’s health demands more of his
attention than he could give while act-
ing in the present capacity.
Dr. R. L- Marquis, president of the
Alpine Teachers College, was elected to
fill the vacancy. Dr. Bruce was ap-
pointed president emeritus and profes-
sor of education. The change will take
place at the beginning of the next long
session next September. The whole stu-
dent body at N. T. T. C. regret very
much to give up their beloved president
but they are glad that he will be con-
nected with the institution in some way.
In an interview, taken from the
Campus Chat, Dr. Bruce said in part:
“When I reached Austin, several
plans were proposed. The fiist was to
appoint a dean who would relieve me
of official responsibilty. But I feel that
that would not be satisfactory. Then
the board of regents proposed to make
me president emeritus and professor of
education with the privilege of work-
ing when and where I pleased. How-
ever,” he continued, “we shall make our
home in Denton. I do not want the
students to think that I am leaving
them.”
--o--—
On arriving at the place of much
knowledge the young man began to
make a few inquiries “I should like
to see my father’s record,” he said to
the head of the college. “He was here
in 1890.”
“I shall be very pleased to show you
the record,” was the reply. “But have
you any special reason for consulting
it.’
