IN MEMORIAM

A f e w weeks ago, Hope College suf fe red a severe loss in

t h e d e a t h of Mrs . A. C. Van Raal te Gilmore who died in

Holland a t t h e age of e igh ty-seven a f t e r a l i fe r ich in experi-

ence, service and devotion. T h e f u n e r a l services were very

f i t t ingly held in Hope Memorial Chapel which was dedicated

by t h e bui lders to the m e m o r y of p ioneers of whom she was

not t h e least . A t r iple bond uni ted he r to us. She was the

last su rv ivo r of t h e i l lustr ious f o u n d e r of th i s colony. Dr. A.

C. Van Raal te . It was his ins is tance and skill t h a t b rough t

th i s In s t i t u t i on to Holland. The c a m p u s was his g i f t and the

very n a m e and seal of the College were inspired by him. And

Mrs. Gi lmore was also the wife of Will iam B. Gilmore who

was a m e m b e r of the first class to g r a d u a t e f r o m Hope Col-

lege in 1866, one of the f i rs t f r u i t s of t h e hope and f a i t h of

the colonial C h u r c h . And then again , s h e was connected with

Hope College in a more i n t i m a t e re la t ionsh ip since she was

the f i rs t Dean of Women and served t h e College f r o m 1SS7

to 1909. T h e product of a Chr i s t i an home, of rugged paren ts ,

and a s t e r n env i ronment , she was a Queen in every sense of

the t e r m . We shall not soon fo rge t t h e s t a t e ly d igni ty with

which s h e walked among us. Of line intel lectual s t r e n g t h , of

beau t i fu l cu l tu re , of moral and sp i r i tua l g r a n d e u r , she lived

a life se r ious bu t joyfu l , s imple but rich in service. And now

t h a t h e r b rave voice is silent and her g r e a t sp i r i t (led, t he re

r e m a i n s he r beau t i fu l m e m o r y and t h e works which she

ASTUDENT SPEAKS

in ' 7

To any casual observer , one angle of Clean-Up Day stood

out wi th b r i g h t c learness , a s a b i t of philosophy t h a t has

f r o m t ime immemoria l proven i ts wor th and potent ia l possi-

bili t ies — t h a t of co-operat ion. How many of us have s topped

to t h ink of the enormous p a r t co-operation plays in t h e world

about us and in our own ex i s t ence? W e migh t go so f a r a s to

say t h a t the bas is of life is co-operat ion. T h e success of the

ac t ions or movemen t s of eve ry body above a one-celled animal ,

w h e t h e r t h a t body is large or small, mater ia l or human , single

or numerous , is dependent on co-operation. The life and de-

velopment of each leaf on t h e trees, each blade of g r a s s , each

Hower and f r u i t of t h e field, depends on the co-operat ion of

the e lements and the cells wi th in i tself . The efficiency and

smooth r u n n i n g of a moto r or any piece of mach ine ry or

mechan i sm, la rge or small, depends on the synchron iz ing and

co-operat ion of every one of its individual pa r t s . To complete t h e parallel — t h e l ife of man, a s an individual

depends on co-operat ion, and the success of movemen t s of a

body of men depends aga in on co-operat ion. Fac t ions and

d issen t ions a r e vulnerable poin ts in t h e makeup of any o rgan-

ization. and due to t h e m a n y organiza t ion may reach i t s end

in ruin . Thus , since co-operat ion is t h e basis of ex is tence and

success of life and m o v e m e n t s today, it should also be the

spir i t of today. Every movement of which we are a p a r t may

not be in complete accord with our ideas, but let us th ink

t h r o u g h them seriously, t ho rough ly , and conscientiously and

if t hey a re for the good of the m a j o r i t y let us ge t behind

t h e m with all our s t r e n g t h and e n t h u s i a s m . To conclude the parallel and b r ing it to home t e r r i t o r y , t h e

life and success of Hope depends on co-operation. Co-opera-

tion on the pa r t of the pioneers founded Hope and the sp i r i t

of co-operation since has kep t our school intact . T h e degree

of success of each movemen t or new exper iment , w h e t h e r it

be a th le t ics , or o ra to ry , or a play, or some th ing of social

act ivi ty depends on the degree of co-operation it receives f r o m

t h e s t u d e n t body and facu l ty . T h e r e has been a marked

increase in th i s f a c to r in recent y e a r s and a new he igh t was

reached on All College Day. S t u d e n t s of Hope — we can m a k e

our school one of the best colleges in the s t a t e and nat ion if

we keep up the spir i t . Each succeeding class t ha t comes upon

the c a m p u s cannot help but be imbued with the spir i t , and the

h e i g h t of our ach ievement will know no bounds, so finally,

le t ' s keep alive the spir i t t h a t h a s kept Hope alive and let 's

pull t o g e t h e r !

These stockin 's jest ain ' t fit to wea r .

Aw. Mom. it 's so nice an ' so sunny, Please, Mom, won't you let me

Many of the s tuden ts of Hope

College a l ready know t h a t t h e r e is

a small museum on the fou r th floor

of Van Raa l t e Hall , but it is evi-

dent t ha t comparat ively few have

a s yet paid a visit to it. No doubt, it has been repor ted

t ha t it is dusty, and one m u s t ad-

mit t h a t it is, but since the All-

College Clean-Up Day fa i led to reach it, one mus t accept it as it

is. Never theless , there is much up

there t h a t is worth seeing.

For those interested in shells, there is a wonderfu l collection of

sea and f r e s h wate r shells, of all

sizes, colors and shapes, r a n g i n g

f rom la rge shells t ha t are a lmost

as big as a small cradle to little

shells t ha t resemble beaut i fu l

beads. Those t h a t spend much t ime out-

doors and see animal life, will be

in teres ted to see the a r r a y of

s tuffed animals , most of which have been put in na tura l posit ions

and are very lifelike, and of course,

they cannot bite or run away.

In r e g a r d s to geology, there a re

rocks of many beaut i fu l , odd

shapes, some as smooth as mi r ro r s

and o thers cut as if an exper t dia-

mond cu t te r had modelled them. In ano the r section there a r e curi-

osities f rom nearly all countr ies of

the world, many of which were

brought here by missionaries. There is a Tibet ian p raye r wheel, some-

th ing the people of Tibet use, when

saying the i r p raye r s ; the more

of ten it is turned, the more t r eas -

ures a re supposedly laid up in

heaven.

There is also an old iron cradle,

in which the early members of the

Van Raal te family of Holland slept. There a re vases f rom Rome,

po t te ry f rom Greece and clay tab-

lets f rom old Palest ine. There is

a Chinese pillow, and as f a r as pil-

o

S C I E N C E NOTEBOOK

lows go, is is most unusual . I t con-

s i s t s of two small rods, about five

or six inches high, wi th ano the r

st ick laid across them at the top.

One wonders whe the r the s leeper ' s

head or neck is supposed to rest on

th i s c rossbar ; e i ther would be un-

comfor tab le , it seems.

The re a rc some small idols, which

the people of Asia worship, some

of which resemble shriveled up car-

ro ts , and it seems impossible t ha t

en t i r e t r ibes would worship idols

such as these.

F o r the gir ls , t he re is a small s tyle show on one side of the

j museum. Here may be seen w h a t

the well dressed Chinese man and woman wears . The styles va ry

with the individual 's social position. The re is a Chinese bridal hat , and

if some people think t ha t the g i r l s

of today wea r odd-shaped ha t s , they should take a look at this one.

Old fashioned flower ga rdens m a y

have been gay , but th is hat is f a r

more so. For those in teres ted in ancient

pho tog raphy , there a re several

f r a m e d p ic tures of the va r ious

classes t ha t have gradua ted . I t is in te res t ing to note t ha t as t ime

went on, more and more girls came to have a place in the groups. And

here ' s someth ing else — if you a r e

anxious to know how some of your

p rofessors looked when they were young and no doubt, gay, just look

at these photographs .

However , the ent i re museum can-

not be described. The s tudents will wan t to see all these th ings and

m a n y o thers for themselves. An

a f t e rnoon spent here will be a

p leasan t one we feel sure. And wha t is more, there is no admis-

sion, and any honest- looking s tu-dent may have the key for the ask-

ing f r o m Mr. Thompson. It will be

wor th your while to see the

museum before you leave this year . —L. S.

The special music was a solo by G. Douma. accompanied by M. Snyder, and two duets by A. Tys-sen and M. Boot. Miss Guig t laa r and a g roup f r o m Bethel Chr is t ian Endeavor gave an e f fec t ive pres-enta t ion of "Ba Thane ," an inci-lent in the life of a Burmese mis-

commit tee , which will probably be

somet ime during the month of

May.

The first meet ing was held on

April 18. with Pres ton Mar ing in

charge . I t was a very in te res t ing

meet ing for it defined the purposes

of the group. Professor Thompson

gave as the ma jo r reasons : F i rs t ,

tha t it would be an excellent place

of or ienta t ion for new science stu-

den ts ; second, tha t it would be a

cent ra l point to g a t h e r new bio-

logical in format ion , and lastly, tha t

it is an oppor tuni ty to learn about

the past , present and perhaps fu -

tu re knowledge of biology.

P ro fe s so r Vergeer e laborated on

the previous speaker ' s points . He

s t ressed or ientat ion and gave a few

sugges t ions on what the club might

do. With the aid of in te res t ing

outside speakers , it would acquaint

the s tudent with f u t u r e biological

life, and it would be t he means of

binding the alumni more closcly to

the s tuden ts .

At the present time the new Biology club has thirty-two inter-

ested members. Any student in-

terested in any phase of biology

is encouraged to join with this promising group.

is, indeed, a problem. There is no

ma jo r spor t news to wr i t e about

and there is ha rd ly anyone t ha t

needs razzing. Well, now, let 's see.

The golf team is mak ing a name

for i tself. The p layers a re in good

form and they a r e all will ing to

work and br ing home the victories

for Hope. The tennis team is also

s t r iv ing to win matches despi te

the fact t ha t they have? been r a t h e r

unsuccessful so f a r . These t eams

and their members a r e to be con-

g ra tu l a t ed for mee t ing thei r own

expenses and for work ing with lit-

tle coaching. It is very difficult to

secure in te res t in these two spor t s

and these fel lows a r e doing the

best they can.

Dear Uppe rc l a s smen : P lease ex-

cuse the mater ia l in the next pa ra -

graph, but the a u t h o r being a f r e sh -

man feels tha t his class deserves

praises despite the genera l t rend

of thought . The f r e shmen indoor

team made a g r e a t showing aga ins t

the other t e ams All-college day.

This team fough t a g a i n s t odds and

they brought honor to thei r class.

The f r e shmen tennis team defea ted

the Holland High school t eam last

Monday. This is the first t ime such

a th ing has been accomplished.

Xow, Dear Upperc lassmen , please

excuse all b r a g g i n g . The f r e sh -

men class real izes tha t honors and

victories should not be the i r s , and

tha t they should be made as little

as possible, but you must realize

that there a re except ions to all

rules.

This coming Wednesday the stu-

dents of Hope college will be given

a chance to wi tness a g rea t game.

Hope s tuden t s will be f ight ing

agains t themse\ve.s in a football

fellows, t ha t is if you still care for
