Description An account of the resource [corresponds to page 3 of Tri-Conference Program] FOREWORD THIS program is the culmination of the first attempt in America to hold three Methodist Episcopal Con- ferences at the same time and place. No amount of effort has been spared to make this event memorable. The Conference Program Committees of the West Ohio, the Ohio, and the North-East Ohio Conferences, the Presi- dent of Ohio Wesleyan University, the three district super- intendents and four entertaining pastors have been organized into one committee with Bishop Theodore S. Henderson, resident Bishop, as Chairman. The program presented herewith is the work of that committee. The invitation of the trustees of Ohio Wesleyan to the three conferences to hold their sessions in Delaware was first approved by Bishop Henderson who in turn presented the matter to the Area Council with recommendations that the invitation be accepted. The Chamber of Commerce, and all churches of Delaware united unanimously in supporting the invitation to the Annual Conferences in September 1926. As a result of this action, the city of Delaware has been organized into one General Entertainment Committee with the President of the Chamber of Commerce as its Chairman. There are eight sub-committees. Through this central organization plans have been formulated for the entertain- ment of the three Annual Conferences, the Laymen's Asso- ciations, the Junior Laymen's Associations and the Women's Organizations. It is the sincere desire of all who have had a share in the arrangements thus far, to make this the first Tri-Conference session of the Methodist Episcopal Churches of Ohio a success. Karl P. Meister Secretary and Treasurer of the Program and General Entertainment Committees. 3 Title A name given to the resource Tri-Conference Program (p. 5) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/d2496a08261b813815b9cd26d0340a26.jpg 91cdf2d3e1116e1a592f05c812f84c96 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

WALKER It is a great thing for a church when it begins to have shrines that symbolize the faith and heroism of the fathers. Delaware is such a shrine. When a committee of preachers was sent from the Ohio Confer- ence sitting at Urbana, to decide whether Delaware would be a good place to start a college, like Caleb and Joshua of old they came back with a favorable report. But when they came to pay for the livery rig which they had used it was found that only one among them had money enough to meet it. Their poverty did not daunt them, however, and they persuaded the Conference, whose members were as poor as themselves, to embark in the adventure. The building in which the school was started is the frame struc- ture immediately behind the college library. Here for fifty years William G. Williams taught Greek, and here until the erection of Merrick Hall, L. D. McCabe with Celtic fire and daring taught philosophy. At 294 North Sandusky Street one sees the home of Edward Thomson, the first president of the university, and afterward Bishop of the Methodist Episcopal Church. He was a descendant of the poet Thomson who wrote "The Seasons". Around his name many traditions gathered, for he strangely gripped the imagination of the students. At 57 Oak Hill Avenue is the home of President Frederick Merrick, where he wore out the carpet by his bedside praying for the Ohio Wesleyan University. He was a New England Presby- terian Puritan touched with the old-fashioned Methodist fire, and the combination of granite and heat made an extraordinary character. The central building on campus is Gray Chapel, the money for which was for the most part raised by President James W. 5 Title A name given to the resource Tri-Conference Program (p. 7) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/162af8b3ccf7ef949d2d67dadc1eba6c.jpg 18bb27eb4654031de5e84214dce19696 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Description An account of the resource [corresponds to page 6 of Tri-Conference Program] Bashford, in small sums and with great difficulty, before the days when people became accustomed to giving liberally to education. One evening in the gloaming President Bashford, pointing to its beautiful tower, said to a professor, "Every stone in that building represents a prayer." The chapel auditorium was the scene of the marvelous evangelistic meetings among the students that Bashford in his simple and unforced fashion was accustomed to conduct. And here also he gave the great monthly lectures that are outstanding memories among the old students. As an illustration of the love in which the college has been held by its children may be mentioned the portrait of Browning, by Moscheles, which hangs in the library reading room. Dr. Frank W. Gunsaulus saw it in Europe, and was told by one who knew Browning that he deemed it the best portrait of the poet in existence. For what price could it be purchased? asked Gunsaulus. The answer was, "A thousand dollars." "Pack it up," said he, "and ship it to the Ohio Wesleyan University, at Delaware." And after that he went out and earned the money to pay for it by lecturing. Gunsaulus' own wonderful portrait, by Nyholm, the Swedish artist, hangs near it in the reading room. The old church which stood on the site of the present William Street Church is the place where the two college friends, Gunsaulus and Bishop McDowell, felt so profoundly the grip of the evangelistic appeal. The Methodist Conferences of Ohio elect the majority of the trus- tees of the Ohio Wesleyan University, and hence can determine its policy. The college is a sacred trust that has been handed down to them by the great men of the past. Of national interest to lovers of temperance is the fact that in the old William Street Church was first organized the Women's Christian Temperance Union, a society that, under God, has been one of the most powerful influences in driving out the legalized saloon. 6 Title A name given to the resource Tri-Conference Program (p. 8) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/49ca3dccd4a4c04a47d0b52e8b692fc3.jpg d081b4faf76b34ac3ddd473372dcd487 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Happy is the man that findeth wisdom, and the man that getteth understand- ing. For the merchandise of it is better than the merchandise of silver, and the gain thereof than fine gold. She is more precious than rubies; and all the things thou canst desire are not to be compared unto her. Length of days is in her right hand; and in her left hand riches and honor. Her ways are ways of pleasantness, and all her paths are peace. She is a tree of life to them that lay hold upon her; and happy is everyone that retaineth her. The Lord by wisdom hath founded the earth; by understanding hath he established the heavens. By his knowledge the depths are broken up, and the clouds drop down the dew. My son, let not them depart from thine eyes; keep sound wisdom and discretion: so shall they be life unto thy soul, and grace to thy neck. Then shalt thou walk in thy way, safely, and thy foot shall not stumble. Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it. Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock: and the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock. And everyone that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand: and the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell; and great was the fall of it.

THE ACT OF PRESENTATION President John W. Dickhaut, B.D., D.D., S.T.D. Dr. John L. Williams, B.D., D.D. THE ACT OF DEDICATION Dearly beloved, it is right and proper that buildings erected for such service in the name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ should be formally and devoutly set apart for their special uses. For such a dedication we are now assembled. And, as the dedication of this building is vain without the solemn consecration of those whose gifts and labors it represents, let us now give ourselves anew to the service of God: our souls, that they may be renewed after the image of Christ; our bodies, that they may be fit temples for the indwelling of the Holy Spirit; and our labors and business, that they may be according to God's holy will, and that their fruit may tend to the glory of his name and the advancement of his kingdom. In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, we dedicate this building to the holy ministry of education. Take fast hold of instruction; let her not go: keep her for she is thy life. We dedicate this building to the spiritual enrichment of all who shall come here in pursuit of knowledge. Happy is the man that findeth wisdom, and the man that getteth understanding. We dedicate this building to the care and nurture of the family, that those who shall dwell here, being established in mutual love and affection, may abide in quiet- ness and peace, in prayer and praise. Thine, O Lord, is the greatness, and the power, and the glory, and the vic- tory, and the majesty: for all that is in the heaven and in the earth is Thine. THE PRAYER OF DEDICATION Let us pray. Almighty God, our heavenly Father, whose eyes are ever toward the righteous, and whose ears are ever open unto their cry: graciously accept, we pray thee, this building which we now dedicate to thee, to thy service, and to thy glory. Grant that those who shall live here, being consecrated to the sacred office of the holy ministry, may with pure minds, upright purpose, and steadfast endeavor, seek always to learn and to do thy holy will, that thy name may be glorified and thy saving health be made known to all men; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

Carlisle, after whom this school is named, had an outstand- ing career in education and community service. Mr. Carlisle, after a long illness, passed away at his home at the age of 46. Mr. Carlisle's civic activities spanned all his years here since his graduation from the Ohio Wesleyan University in 1931, when he came to Willis High School as football coach and teacher. Possibly his foremost civic achievement was his chair- manship of the City Charter Commission that promoted the city charter form of government. This resulted in a successful election and the eventual hiring of Dela- ware's first city manager. From 1931 until 1934, Mr. Carlisle served as football coach and teacher. In 1934 he became principal of Willis High School and in 1937 received his M.A. degree from the Ohio State University. He served as acting superintendent of the Delaware City Schools while the present superintendent, David R. Smith, was in service during the war years. Mr. Carlisle was instrumental in the establishing and operation of a defense training school here during the early years of the World War II. Mr. Carlisle left his school position in 1945 to enter the insurance business. Because of his valuable school experience and since he was needed, he agreed to run and was elected to the Board of Education in 1949. He served as president in 1953. His willingness to serve kept Mr. Carlisle very busy. He served as director of ushers at the Asbury Methodist Church for more than 15 years. While serving as chairman of the industrial division of the Community Chest, he developed the payroll deduction plan which greatly contributed to the success of the campaigns. Mr. Carlisle headed the school division of the Jane M. Case Hospital ex- pansion campaign. He also served as chairman of industry in several Red Cross drives. Mr. Carlisle was the founder of the Youth Recreation Center, active in Boy Scout work, and was chairman for several years for the Scout financial drive. Mr. Carlisle was a past director of the Chamber of Commerce. He was president of the Delaware Development Corporation which assisted in bringing new industries to Delaware. He was a member and past director of the local Kiwanis Club. He was also a member of Hiram Lodge Number 18, F. and A. M. and the Elks and Moose Lodges. It is only fitting that this new school, dedicated to the service of young people, is named the Ervin F. Carlisle School. Mr. Carlisle's life like the school was dedicated to both young and old in education and service. He was a dedicated man, unselfish to the end.

CONGER ELEMENTARY SCHOOL The idea of giving a name to what had long been known as "East" School had its origin among the people of the school community. The process by which the change of names came about was long, as is always the case where democratic action prevails. But out of the total process came the voice and the will of the people. And it was quite natural for the people to want their school named for the principal who had served them so long and so well, who was loved by so many, and whose loss is still deeply felt. The late James A. Conger, better known as "Jim," would have wanted no better monument to his name than this fine modern educational plant, proudly serving the children and youth of a grateful community. THE CONSTRUCTION PROGRAM Construction of the new addition to Conger Elementary School began on April 20, 1955, and the building was first used for school purposes on March 5, 1956. It is of masonry, reinforced conccrete, and structural steel construction, the exterior being bricks of red Delaware clay. The addition contains four classrooms, modern toilet facilities, kitchen, chair storage room, and an enlargement to the gymnasium auditorium. All ceilings in the new construction are finished in eggshell tone accoustical plaster; floors throughout are of asbestos tile in harmonious colors which give an overall effect of pleasantness and relaxation. Classroom lighting is accomplished by two 28-foot banks of fluores- cent fixtures, and a special light-diffusing glass in the upper sash of the windows. Woodwork is natural-finished birch; chalkboards are green clearsite composition and tackboards are green cork composition. Each classroom is equipped with a sink and drinking fountain, as well as metal lockers for pupil coat storage. Heating is by pressurized hot water, fired by automatic gas burner, and classroom heating units are the Nesbitt book-shelf type for greater utility and space economy. The original building was completely redecorated and remodeled, and the original furniture has been almost completely replaced with modern movable furniture in blond finish. The installation of a centralized time-control system; an electrically operated fire alarm system; a public address system equipped with inter-com, AM-FM radio, and phonograph; and a 9-foot cyclone-type fence around the play areas, add further to the convenience, safety, and efficiency of the entire school plant. Cost of the project has been established at $90,000 for construction; $60,000 for remodeling; and $15,000 for furnishing. THE GLEE CLUB Beginning in 1952 the school has had a glee club, made up largely of fifth and sixth grade pupils. During the 1954-55 school year, when space for rehearsals during school time was completely lacking, and again during the 1955-56 school year until completion of the building program, it was necessary to abandon the glee club as a part of the regular curriculum. It was re-activated in March, 1956, and has nearly 40 members from the 4th, 5th, and 6th grades, all admitted to membership as a result of try-outs. The addition to our school program is made possible by the splendid co- operation of teachers, pupils, and parents with the director, Miss Mack. Title A name given to the resource James A.

Description An account of the resource [page 3] [corresponds to unlabeled page 3 of A Hundred Years] Foreword The world crisis of today presents a challenge unrivalled in the annals of history. Creative and constructive Christian leadership is the most vital need of every nation. Colleges such as Ohio Wesleyan University have ever met such chal- lenges and must meet them even more effectively today and tomorrow. Ohio Wesleyan University completes the first century of service in 1942. The record of these years is unique in the quality and extensiveness of leadership produced. Proud of the heritage of the past and realizing the needs of today, Ohio Wesleyan leaders are designing a forward movement for the univer- sity. The second hundred years must be greater than the first. Young men and young women of dynamic personality and moral character must be trained to serve their age. Early pioneers of faith, sacrifice, courage and devotion made possible the founding of Ohio Wesleyan. Investments of time, talents and re- sources now will preserve foundations already laid and build for tomorrow.

BEGINNINGS "There is no Methodist College in Ohio. There is no state in the country which has more need for such a college." This challenge was read to the North Ohio Conference in September, 1840. Little more than a year later, under the leadership of the Reverend Adam Poe, the Methodist pastor in Delaware, one hundred and seventy-two towns- people had subscribed $9,000 which which to launch such a college. The Man- sion House, an inn which stood near a white sulphur spring, was purchased. A special charter for the founding of a university was granted by the Ohio State Legislature on March 7, 1842. The Preamble reads: "The Ohio and North Ohio Methodist Conferences are determined upon establishing an extensive university ... to the support of which they are pledged to use their utmost efforts ... this university is forever to be conducted on the most liberal prin- ciples, accessible to all religious denominations ..." Twenty-nine students enrolled in the new college for the first term. Although this was only about one-fourth as many students as had been expected, although the first four instructors waited long periods for their pay, never a doubt arose in the minds of those Christian pioneers that the school would succeed. They knew before undertaking the venture that it would mean sacrifice, but they were not daunted. The full measure of their dreams could be realized only in the establishment of a Christian college. Keenly aware of this need, they were willing to give much of the little which they possessed to see Ohio Wesleyan grow.

Description An account of the resource [page 7] [corresponds to unlabeled page 7 in A Hundred Years] Our Heritage GROWTH THROUGH SACRIFICE A circuit rider sold his horse and walked that he might make a contribution to the college. A president sold his home to provide the initial gift for a fund with which to build a chapel. Year by year loyal students and alumni made contributions; believers in education with a Christian emphasis built their lives into each new structure. As the student body increased, a larger chapel was needed, and Gray Chapel was given by David S. Gray as a memorial to his father. To meet another great need of the institution, Charles Elihu Slocum started the fund for the library that bears his name. The Monnett family contributed to the building of Monnett Hall; Anna Sanborn Clason gave money toward the building of Sanborn Hall; and the Edwards family contributed to the gymnasium. Professor Hiram Perkins, together with his wife and sister, gave the savings of a life time for the building and endowing of Perkins Observatory. The gift of Mr. and Mrs. E. E. Edgar made possible the acquisition of Edgar Hall. The Selby brothers, Pearl, Mark, Homer and Roger, as a memorial to their father, Mr. George Selby, contributed funds for the erection of Selby Stadium. The newest building on the campus is Stuyvesant Hall, the beautiful home of freshman women. This was the generous gift of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Stuyvesant. After the death of Mr. Stuyvesant, Mrs. Stuyvesant, in memory of her hus- band, installed the carillon tower with its beautifully toned chimes.

Description An account of the resource [page 8] [corresponds to unlabeled page 8 in A Hundred Years] The names mentioned here are of those whose gifts are represented in build- ings. Many, many others have contributed generously. But money has not been the only important contribution to this university; if that were so, Ohio Wesleyan would be only brick and wool and stone, not the living spirit that holds the love and loyalty of thousands of men and women. Lives have been given as freely as money. Long years of devoted service in the classroom have been chiefly rewarded by the affection of students and the knowledge that it was all a part of the building of the Kingdom of God, not only in Delaware, but around the world. The roster of those who have thus nobly served is too long to be printed here, for countless are the people who have become a part of the growth of Ohio Wesleyan University, projecting their influence into thousands of young lives-- into the future of America. ALUMNI ACHIEVEMENT Throughout these first one hundred years, Ohio Wesleyan University has been recognized for the excellence of its scholastic achievement and its conse- crated Christian living. Its leaders have consistently realized that the highest type of academic training and the building of Christian character cann, and should, go hand in hand. Ohio Wesleyan has contributed eminent leadership to every important field of endeavor in American life. In law, politics, medicine, journalism, art, music, and in international relations, its graduates have distinguished themselves. Those trained in the sciences have helped to make every-day life more comfort- able, more safe, more worth living. Others have gone forth to teach in the nation's schools and colleges, per- petuating the best within themselves in the lives of those whom they taught. A distinguished group has served the church in a notable way, as bishops, min- isters, and lay leaders. Still others have become missionaries, spreading the gospel of Christ to the far ends of the earth. Many have written articles and books that have inspired and influenced our thinking.

They are young people of good character, proven ability, and serious in their desire to acquire an education where the emphasis is on Christian char- acter-building as well as intellectual and physical development. There are one hundred and twenty-five men and women on the teaching and administrative staff. These leaders of today's students are consecrated to the Christian ideal and have been carefully chosen because of proficiency in their respective fields and their interest in personalized education with a Christian emphasis. Ohio Wesleyan University is fully accredited by all rating bodies, Founda- tions and graduate schools of America. A chapter of Phi Beta Kappa, national honorary society, was established on the Delaware campus in 1907. Beginning with one building -- the Old Mansion House, now Elliott Hall, Ohio Wesleyan has acquired buildings and grounds imposing in appearance and great in value. The university is now housed in seventeen buildings on three campuses. Property of various kinds has been added to the holdings through the years, so that today the assets of Ohio Wesleyan have a book value of $7,439,000.... And so Ohio Wesleyan has continued to grow, to influence, and to serve, throughout its first one hundred years. The needs of yesterday have been met. Now comes tomorrow -- with greater needs and greater opportunities.

Description An account of the resource [page 11] [corresponds to unlabeled page 11 in A Hundred Years] [photo of President Burgstahler] Herbert John Burgstahler, eighth president of Ohio Wesleyan University, came to its leadership well prepared to conserve all that his predecessors had achieved, and lift the university to greater heights of influence and service. Dr. Burgstahler served prominent pastorates of the Methodist Church most acceptably before being called to the presidency of Cornell College, Mount Vernon, Iowa. During his twelve years (1927-1939) as president of Cornell College, the institution enjoyed outstanding prosperity, the endowment was substantially increased, new buildings were erected and many of the older build- ings reconditioned, and its educational program greatly advanced. He is widely known as a leading educator, administrator, and public speaker. His presidency bespeaks a new and better day for Ohio Wesleyan.

Description An account of the resource [page 12] [corresponds to unlabeled page 12 in A Hundred Years] PRESIDENT BURGSTAHLER'S MESSAGE What does the world need most in this catastrophic hour? Fear, confusion, and insecurity harass the minds of men the world around. The imperative for the world today and tomorrow is Christian statesmen-- high-minded men and women who have character, who are moved by Christian motives to serve, who believe that God is at the helm, that human personality is sacred and that ultimately Christian ideals and standards will abide in the world. Ohio Wesleyan has a century prepared such men. Its record of alumni leadership in the world is amazing. Its contribution of such leadership tomorrow will be even greater because of superior educational standards and techniques. This education will be purposed to inspire young men and women to live nobly, sacrificially, and creatively for their age. Future facilities, as those of the past, will be selected for their thorough scholastic abilities, proven teaching qualities, and their definite interest in personalizing education. The new century of Ohio Wesleyan must be greater than the last if we are to fulfill the hopes and dreams of those noble men who laid its foundations. This will require greater income, freeing the university of debt, reconditioning buildings, adding new equipment, building a dormitory for men, and in general improving the financial structure of the university. We who believe in Christ-centered education will build with vision as great, and sacrifice as vicarious and daring, as did our forebears. The investments of money and self now will insure the preparing of world leaders who will preserve the hard won standards of today's life and will help build the world of tomorrow according to the program of the Master of menn. Permit me to express my deep appreciation to all who have cooperated so loyally in the past. With God's help, we together, will begin the new century with assurance of increasing success. H. J.

On many sides the democratic, and even the Christian way of life is being chal- lenged. If the spiritual ideals of our nation are to persist, they must be given new support and greater encouragement. Our educational institutions must continue to pursue the truth, to cherish the good, and to teach young people to live happy, worthwhile lives. The world's greatest need is for really Christian education, the kind of education for which Ohio Wesleyan has stood for one hundred years; the kind of education we want to give in a better way to more young men and women in the days and years to come. Just as Ohio Wesleyan has produced great leaders in the past, so must it produce even greater leaders in the future. The courage and daring of the pioneer must be made to live again. During the first hundred years those who had faith in the development of a greater Ohio Wesleyan, brought that faith to fulfillment by a sacrificial spirit and unselfish generosity. There is a need that men and women today have the same kind of faith and determination that Ohio Wesleyan may continue to go forward.

Description An account of the resource [page 16] [corresponds to unlabeled page 16 in A Hundred Years] And Our Dreams THE CENTENNIAL FUND Alumni and other friends of Ohio Wesleyan have agreed that the Centennial Anniversary is an appropriate time to register anew their devotion and their faith, and to make a furthur investment in the future of the university. At the threshold of its second century, they are resolved that it shall have the material means to carry on its work in the finest possible way. As an embodiment of their good will and confidence, they have determined to establish a centennial fund of a million dollars minimum. The program is already under way. The announcement of the plan brought a challenge-gift of two hundred and fifty thousand dollars; other substantial gifts followed. The spirit of generosity and of sacrifice still endures. By the united efforts of friends of the college, the goal set will be accomplished. Loyalty and devotion will not fail. With the minimum sum of one million dollars added to the present assets, the financial status of the university will be strengthened greatly. This rep- resents the beginning of the forward program of the university for the new century. LEADERS OF THE MOVEMENT To provide a centennial celebration worthy of the university, and to see that all friends and alumni have an opportunity to help make the Centennial Fund of a minimum of one million dollars a glorious reality, careful plans have been made. Dr. William Frederick Bigelow, alumnus and trustee, has been chosen as Centennial Fund Chairman. Cooperating with him as financial counsellor and executive director of the movement is Dr. J. Wesley Miller. The Centennial Fund is endorsed by the North-East Ohio and Ohio Con- ferences of the Methodist Church. Bishop H. Lester Smith of the Cincinnati Area is serving as chairman of the church division of the campaign.

Description An account of the resource [page 20] [corresponds to unlabeled page 20 in A Hundred Years] And Our Dreams THE CHALLENGE The ancient prophet has said, "Without vision, the people perish." Ohio Wesleyan leaders and friends have vision. They also have faith. Their vision and faith will bring the realization of the Centennial Fund, which means the financial strengthening of the structure and program of the university. With all working together this can be accomplished. The worth-whileness of the Ohio Wesleyan program is evidenced by the character of its students -- those of yesterday, those of today, and (can we doubt it?) those of tomorrow, for whom we would build now. Look into the faces of the two students pictured on the opposite page. In the faces of these students are both the revelation and the promise of the greatness of Ohio Wesleyan. To help maintain the Ohio Wesleyan type of Christian education for such as these is the privilege and the opportunity of every alumnus and friend of the institution. Success is the campaign for the Centennial Fund of a minimum of one million dollars will be insurance that Ohio Wesleyan's second century of service to young men and women will be even greater than that of the first century. Devotion, sacrifice, and daring just now will bring rich dividends in the future. Will you meet the challenge?

Description An account of the resource [page 4] [corresponds to unlabeled page 4 in OWU Choir Program] About Ohio Wesleyan Located in Delaware near the geographical center of the State of Ohio, Ohio Wesleyan University has for over one hundred years occupied a distinguished place among the educational institutions of the United States. It was established in 1842 by the Methodist Church. Since its founding the Methodists have continued to maintain great interest in it, and to give financial aid to its program. The men and women of the faculty, of high character and academic training, are, first of all, good teachers. The University, which is fully accredited by the Association of American Colleges and Secondary Schools, and the National Association of Schools of Music, is regarded by graduate and professional schools as supplying a fine prepara- tion for their work. The following degrees are conferred: Bachelor of Arts, Bachelor of Music, Bachelor of Fine Arts, and Master of Arts. In the music area, majors are offered in piano, voice, organ, school music (choral and instrumental), and in an orchestral or band instrument, theory, or church music. The Department of Music is located in Sanborn Hall, a building of some seventy- five rooms. Here we find a recital hall, class rooms, rehearsal rooms for music organi- zations, practice studios, teaching studios, and the music library. The library houses, in addition to books, recordings, and orchestral, band and choral scores. The Department is organized to give instruction, not only to those majoring in music, but also to those interested in music as an avocation. The fields of study include piano, organ, violin, cello, woodwind and brass instruments, percussion, theory, compo- sition, history, and literature and appreciation of music. The music staff are gifted specialists who are performers as well as fine teachers. The instruction is geared to professional standards with a view to training majors to take an active part in the music life of their generation as performers, private teachers, college instructors, school music supervisors, church organists and ministers of music, arrangers, and conduc- tors. Choral performance has been an important activity at Ohio Wesleyan since the establishment of the Music Department in 1877. With the upsurge in choral singing in the colleges of America following the First World War, the Ohio Wesleyan Choir was founded, becoming a group dedicated to the development of a singing technique and style capable of performing the great choral masterpieces, both secular and sacred, from the Renaissance to contemporary times. Recently a distinguished New York composer and critic writing in the AMERICAN ORGANIST called it "one of America's finest stu- dent choirs." Several contemporary composers have dedicated compositions to it, and the group has given premier performances of other contemporary works as well. The Choir has made forty-seven annual tours which have taken it into all parts of the United States and Canada. This is the Choir's second trip abroad.

As a colleague concerned with the art of Shakespeare from a contemporary, literary point of view, I have looked forward each year to the last week in April when, in commemoration of Shakespeare's birthday, the Wesleyan Players would interpret anew one of the tragedies or histories or comedies. For many hundreds of students these productions have led to a permanent interest in Shakespearean drama. Clarence Hunter's achievement is an enviable one indeed.

He came to our faculty just when I was leaving the college as a graduate. Since that im- portant year 1920, I have known of Professor Hunter's contribution to the University as an in- structor, as a coach in dramatics and as an au- thority in Shakespeare. He has not only labored diligently within the college itself, but has brought us prestige from without. Since becom- ing a Trustee, I have been even more aware of his good works. It gives me great pleasure to wish Clarence and Mrs. Hunter many years of useful and re- warding retirement. Ohio Wesleyan is proud to have had thirty-nine years of such devoted service. C. B. Mills Chairman of the Board IN TRIBUTE This year we pay special tribute to R. Clar- ence Hunter whose sensitive and understanding interpretation of Shakespeare has enriched the lives of so many of us over the years. His record of 37 annual Shakespeare plays is impressive in itself; but Professor Hunter has consistently sought and achieved the highest quality in all his dramatic productions. His con- tribution over nearly ten college generations, both in the classroom and in the cultural life of the greater University community, is certainly con- sistent with the highest ideals of the teaching profession.

ANDERSON CLOTHING Our twenty years of serving Professor Hunter have been most enjoyable. LEE'S BOOK STORE AS YOU LIKE IT -- THE FIRST SHAKESPEAREAN PRODUCTION AT OHIO WESLEYAN "In any consideration of the development of the drama at Ohio Wesleyan University between the years 1903 and 1913 the chief factor to be considered is the work and influence of Professor Robert Irving Fulton, at that time the Dean of the School of Oratory. Professor Fulton loved the drama, especially Shakespeare, and it was his ambition to pre- sent great plays at the University. This ambition, however, controverted the idea dominant in the Methodist Church in those days, to wit, that the theatre was a thing of evil and that it should not be tolerated in a Methodist institution. Pro- fessor Fulton was a persistent individual. He was not easily discouraged and in spite of opposition he worked unceasing- ly to attain his end. It was at Commencement time, June 21, 1905, that Professor Fulton decided the time had come for the presentation of a Shakespearean play, and to get way from the atmosphere of the theatre which was taboo, he decided to have an open- air performance. The play selected was AS YOU LIKE IT and for the part of Rosalind a well known reader and elo- cutionist named Katherine Eggleston Junkermann was invited to be the guest star. John T. Marshman, 1 then a gradu- ate student, was cast as Touchstone, and to my surprise I was given the part of Orlando. Since I was only a sophomore this was taken to be an evidence of favoritism on the part of Professor Fulton. The site selected for the forest of Arden was a hillside in what was then known as Merrick Glen, on the Barnes property, at about the point where Stuyvesant Hall stands today. We had a distinguished audience the afternoon of the play, seated on the hillside facing our open-air stage. The first act went off very well, and then--disaster! The windows of heaven were opened and the water fell upon the earth. Later on some of Professor Fulton's opponents on the faculty expressed the opinion that it was a judgement of heaven on our wicked play. Players and spectators alike ran for shelter but before we reached the house we were soaked to the skin. Professor Fulton was a bit discouraged by this setback, but not at all dismayed and the following afternoon we ventured again into the forest. This time the weather was perfect and the play was a great success." By Charles Milton Newcomb* 1 John T. Marshman became the head of the speech department in 1920. * Charles Newcomb was head of dramatics at OWU from 1916 to 1920. Congratulations to Professor Hunter FIRST NATIONAL BANK OF DELAWARE Member of the F.D.I.C.

Description An account of the resource [page 8] [corresponds to unlabeled page 8 of As You Like It program] Greetings from Friends So at last it has come to this--the final Shakespeare play that you direct as a member of the faculty! Plays and speech class will go on next year, but it will seem a bit strange not to have you around the campus too. You have been a stalwart member of the faculty and we remember the part that you have played in faculty af- fairs. It has been just about the easiest thing in the world to give enthusiastic sup- port to the college dramatic program. You have provided good entertainment and a varied fare (even though Shakespeare is your favorite playwright). You have pro- vided real enrichment to college and community life. As you begin your retirement, your faculty colleagues wish you a long and happy vacation when you and your wife will have unhurried freedom to enjoy many things. One of these will surely be a connoisseur's delight in play-going. Have a good time, both of you. George Crowl, President of A.A.U.P., O.W.U. Chapter It is a distinct pleasure to add to this special program a few words of sincere ap- preciation to Mr. Hunter from Theta Alpha Phi. Not only has Mr. Hunter kept the Ohio Alpha Chapter among the most outstanding in the fraternity, but he has con- tributed richly to the organization as a whole, both in his many years of service as a national officer, and in the help and guidance he has given so generously to the chapters in this region. Associated with Theta Alpha Phi almost since its inception, Mr. Hunt- er represents in a high degree as a person, and in his teaching, the ideas and ideals in theatre this group attempts to propagate. We are proud to claim him as a member, and to extend our fondest good wishes for the future. F. Lee Miesle, Regional Director, Region II, Theta Alpha Phi Theta Alpha Phi, national honorary dramatics fraternity, wishes to honor Professor Clarence Hunter on the occasion of his retirement. The progress of theatre at Ohio Wesleyan is founded upon the precepts he has engendered here. He can proudly take his place among the outstanding teachers and directors of the non-professional theatre of our country who have brought into fine force a Renaissance in the theatre. Hun- dreds of students form a great immortality for him. He taught them well and inspired them to create and appreciate good drama. His method was ever stimulating. He is one of those rare teachers who can in performance demonstrate the art he teaches. Also he has been an influence in the national scene having served with distinction as the national president of Theta Alpha Phi. We, the members of Theta Alpha Phi, extend hearty congratulations to Clarence Hunter and hope sincerely that in retirement he will continue his connection with his colleagues, students, and friends throughout the world. R. W. Masters, National Secretary-Treasurer, Theta Alpha Phi There are many missionaries among us. Most are easily identified. A few are not. Clarence Hunter is not. For nearly four decades he has quietly and devoutly served the interests of and taught drama to college students. Their excellence and their works carry a far greater tribute to this man than mere written or spoken words. It seems more than fitting that the conclusion of this great teacher's second act should have been written by one of the world's greatest playwrights, Shakespeare. This final production, therefore, shall be a capstone to the columnar teaching career of this man who has done so much for so many. To those of us who have followed Clarence Hunter in the Presi- dency of Theta Alpha Phi, we find the way challenging. It is our hope that when our second act curtain comes, we will be able to look forward to the third act with the same confidence. We pray that we will be able to feel a measure of the same pride of ser- vice and accomplishment of the past while anticipating the future. Thank you, Clarence Hunter. We can only try. Good luck and may God bless you. Sam M. Marks, National President, Theta Alpha Phi TRAGIC NIGHT in the career of Professor Hunter was February 24, 1934, when the City Opera House was completely destroyed by fire. This was the first theater used by Ohio Wesleyan dramatists. Professor Newcomb recalled that "there was a decided 'air' about this old 'Opry House.' This was due to the fact that the fire department stable was located on the first floor." After the fire, Ohio Wesleyan turned to the Delaware public schools to pro- vide theater arrangements in Willis High Auditorium. The University, in spite of the fact that it has had an outstanding program in dramatics, has never had a theater of its own. Professor Hunter has worked hard and long toward this end, and his many friends have hoped it could be realized be- fore his retirement.

To those acquainted merely with Ohio Wesleyan's achievements, a statement of her handicaps doubtless comes as a surprise. The unusual prominence of her graduates, and her position of leadership in the church, in education and in national life have been attained as the result of great sacrifice, and through operating far above what could rightfully be expected from her faculty and equipment. IT COSTS SOMETHING TO HAVE UNIVERSITIES, BUT IT COSTS INFINITELY MORE NOT TO HAVE THEM.

In doing this great work she has rendered an immeasurable service to society. In making men and women, the University loses money; therefore, she must depend upon society to discharge her obligations by providing funds sufficient to enlarge her service as an educator and character moulder to a constantly increasing number of young men and women. Ohio Wesleyan's situation today might be likened to that of the fifteen-year-old boy who has suddenly attained the growth and size of a man. He has outgrown his clothes, they are giving way at the elbows and knees; and must immediately be replaced by larger ones. Ohio Wesleyan is rapidly outgrowing her facility, her buildings, her campus, and all of her facilities are seriously overtaxed. 6 Title A name given to the resource Build Yourself a Living Monument (p.8) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/a7fc6d3bf6a9bd8520dd4d5516e48a60.jpg ecf391bc06a08c45477dc6307b483d07 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

TO realize the $8,000,000 Development fund, Ohio Wesleyan Uni- versity naturally depends upon the active financial support of the following groups. This is because every one in every group either has already received, or is now receiving, benefits from this old and fine Christian University greater in amount than the sum of money we shall suggest as a minimum to be subscribed. 1 Trustees. 2 Alumni and former students. 3 Faculty. 4 Student Body and Parents of Students. 5 Citizens of Delaware County. 6 Members of the Methodist Church; every one of whom has a vital Those who will personal interest in keeping this Fountain of Methodism flowing.

Description An account of the resource [page 12] [corresponds to page 10 in OWU Build Yourself a Living Monument] BUILD YOURSELF A LIVING MONUMENT What These Figures Mean THE actual cost of educating a student at Ohio Wesleyan in 1921-1922 was, therefore, $330.00, of which the student paid about half, or $165.00. That means an operating deficit of $165.00 per student per year;--a total of $268,000.00, for the year 1921-1922 with an attend- ance of 1623 (which must be provided for by endowment). On this basis every student who takes the regular four-year course is entitled to feel that he or she owes the University $660.00 the day the diplomas are given out. To further increase students' fees would hinder the very purpose of this institution of higher learning which is to give the student with little or no means, as well as the well-to-do and rich, a chance for proper education. Therefore, the only alternative is to build an endowment fund with an income sufficient to cover the annual operating deficit. Making Men But Losing Money NO college or University charges students as much as it costs to give them their schooling. They no more seek to make money than do our public schools:--the public schools make up their income from taxes, while the University always has made up its deficiency, and doubtless always will, from endowment fund income. Few people realize the great difference between the annual cost of educating a student and the amount that he pays to the University. Alumni, present students and parents of students have no conception of the investment that Ohio Wesleyan makes each year in her boys and girls, for which no charge can be made. 10 Title A name given to the resource Build Yourself a Living Monument (p.12) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/36677edc620ecd3eca309a38a709f769.jpg 3f0b8cc5da39f419d023fd229aa824ba Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Such an investment pays perpetual dividends to you and yours and to society in general. A University such as Ohio Wesleyan is in the forefront of all objects for this type of investment, because it is a source of benevolence, as well as power. In assisting Ohio Wesleyan at this critical time, you are providing for the education of all those who, according to statistics, will improve their chances of acquiring future wealth, and who, through the inspiration of their Alma Mater will most probably devote a part of it to many worthy causes. What Interest Shall I Draw From An Investment In Ohio Wesleyan? A PROPER question, and one that should be answered to your satisfaction, in this inspiring message from William F. Anderson, Bishop of the Methodist Episcopal Church: "The most noteworthy thing about Ohio Wesleyan University is its output of men and women for practical leadership in the various de- partments of human activity. 'By their fruits ye shall know them' is a standard of measurement which comes to us upon the highest authority. Adjudged by this standard the old college at Delaware stands in the very first rank. Her ideals have gone out through all the earth and other men and women to the end of the world." 12 Title A name given to the resource Build Yourself a Living Monument (p.14) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/e5a6ca9d4445deece5637027ab688ac1.jpg d8ef591ba061b13e4148d4a9b4737210 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Description An account of the resource [page 15] [corresponds to page 13 in OWU Build Yourself a Living Monument] OHIO WESLEYAN UNIVERSITY An Underpaid Faculty--A Dangerous Condition A UNIVERSITY is as strong as its faculty. By training the minds of the young men and women of today, University professors are moulding the future of the Nation. It is a square deal that these men shall assume the great responsibility for National character moulding, yet be paid salaries that scarcely equal the pay of iron moulders in our foundries? We ask of the modern professor the exercise of the highest human attributes--conscience, high thinking, a devotion to high ideals, learn- ing, constructive talents, and the genius to teach and train the future leaders of the Nation. His value to the world is incomparable and yet he is often condemned to scarcity or even poverty, while his students go out to rewards only limited by ability and effort. Herbert Hoover declares that: "there is nothing our people should so generally resent as the fact that their sons and daughters are to receive the basic formation of their character and intelligence at so great a sacrifice as is now being imposed on those upon whom we must depend to create our whole national character." In attempting to attract the best type of instruction talent to the University and to uphold the traditionally high standards of education, Ohio Wesleyan like other denominational colleges, is in direct com- petition with industry which offers such high salaries to able men. Even though older professors, through long association with the University, their keen interest in the work and their loyalty to the cause of higher education, remain at great sacrifice to themselves and families, yet the call of business is making serious inroads upon the ranks of the younger generation of university teachers. 13 Title A name given to the resource Build Yourself a Living Monument (p.15) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/7d56eac8a2b06c852313b8bec38b3bce.jpg 0201ee2357da15a352ae907170a4a2f0 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Description An account of the resource [page 16] [corresponds to page 9 in OWU Build Yourself a Living Monument] BUILD YOURSELF A LIVING MONUMENT Is This Good American Justice? THERE has recently been much discussion regarding the "living wage." Whatever it is, we can safely say that some university professors are not getting it. Unless a professor has an independent income, or earns some money by writing and other activities outside of his University work, he often has to travel a rough road financially. Note well, that the average annual salary of the members of the Ohio Wesleyan faculty is $2286.00, a wage of about $7.00 per day. On the other hand, consider those carpenters, bricklayers, plasterers and other craftsmen whose period of preparation is only a fractional part of the years required to become a good professor, and yet who receive $10.00 for an eight-hour day. The $4,000,000 instruction endowment will enable the trustees of Ohio Wesleyan to increase the average annual income of her teaching force from $2286 to $3075. This university must be more generously supported by men of affairs with conscience and broad foresight. Not as a matter of charity or giving but as a broad business enterprise that will help Christian edu- cation win the race against world disaster. An Instruction Endowment: The Only Way Out An endowment of $4,000,000 safely invested will net the University about $200,000 annually, no more than enough to: (a) Insure the faculty a living wage. (b) Hold the good professors at Ohio Wesleyan. (c) Permit Ohio Wesleyan to meet the competition of industry and other Universities, and thereby hold her own in attracting the highest type of instruction talent. (d) Permit additions to the teaching force constantly demanded by increased attend- ance. 14 Title A name given to the resource Build Yourself a Living Monument (p.16) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/de76d5ffffecc698522bcde40d36937c.jpg 28c79e6a21b09e88a22151f336cd38f9 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Description An account of the resource [page 17] [corresponds to page 15 in OWU Build Yourself a Living Monument] OHIO WESLEYAN UNIVERSITY Shall Wesleyan's Doors Be Barred to Students of Moderate Means? IN "The Bonnie Brier Bush," the schoolmaster says to Drumsheugh: "Ye think that a'm asking a great thing when I plead for a few notes to give a puir laddie a college education. I tell ye, man, a'm honoring ye and givin' ye the fairest chance ye'll ever hae o'winning wealth." To further increase students' fees would defeat the basic purpose of this institution to do the greatest educational good to the greatest number. The doors of Ohio Wesleyan have been doors of oppor- tunity to the sort of people the world needs most;--many of these men and women of extremely moderate means who see in Christian education a big and precious thing--a chance to render the highest service to the world. A Debt That Maturity Owes to Youth OHIO Wesleyan should not become a select school for sons and daughters of the rich. This would be contrary to the high pur- poses of her founders by limiting higher education to a fortunate few. The request for a scholarship endowment of $400,000 is extremely modest and when invested at 5% will bring an annual return of only $20,000. Yet that $20,000 will make it possible for scores of wealthy young men and women to develop from youths of promise into men and women of prominence. 15 Title A name given to the resource Build Yourself a Living Monument (p.17) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/a0aecb8f053f4b6a82a218035cd92a12.jpg 5ae0eaf9436b9ce69b59ee38c1a6fe12 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

However, great care must be exercised that this work shall not develop into undue drudgery or interfere with the students' scholastic standing. The University authorities must establish a proper balance between scholarship assistance and self support. They take pains always, since the number whom they can help in this way is limited, to afford scholarship aid to those who help themselves. In asking for scholarship endowment Ohio Wesleyan is proud to record the following figures to show what her ambiticus under-graduates are ac- tually doing to help themselves. Self-Support--Student Body 1920-21 Questionnaires returned 1188 out of 1470: 445 working during the School Year, earning . . . . $79,288 688 working during the Summer, earning . . . . . . . 170,254 ________ Total . . . . . . . $249,542 In a word, Ohio Wesleyan students help educate themselves to the extent of over a quarter million dollars a year. The Uni- versity asks you to provide scholarship endowments (in your own name if you wish) that will produce $20,000 per year or only 8% of what the students do for themselves. We must not forget that these young people who made these earnings were all the time carrying their full college work, and thus earned this money in spare time only.

This is an object that should strongly appeal to every thoughtful per- son:--These National Character Moulders often spend a lifetime of service at salaries that barely permit them to obtain the necessities of life, let alone, enjoy any of the luxuries. These devotees to the cause of higher education seldom have an opportunity to save enough money for the "rainy day." By serving as teacher, guide and friend to thousands of students they are raising the seed corn of the world, but are getting little or none of the harvest. Society demands 100% efficiency from University professors; there- fore society should provide funds that will permit the pay- ment of living in- comes during the long years of service and insure reasonable re- tirement allowances for declining years of unemployment. 17 Title A name given to the resource Build Yourself a Living Monument (p.19) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/713a22901a96e8fb3d4a0c56ee346a97.jpg 7d797e6b3cef0b1e12d981c928da2b5e Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

With its present capacity in buildings, the University could instruct, without in- convenience and crowding, between 1000 and 1200 stu- dents. Imagine then, the cramped conditions under which the school is now operating with an enrollment of 1650 students. Sixteen new buildings are absolutely necessary. 1. To properly care for the present excess of students over physical capacity. 2. To provide additional capacity for increased attendance during the next ten years. 3. To relieve the present crowded and intolerable conditions. These new buildings will permit the segregation, the proper organiza- tion and administration of groups of related departments, with library reading rooms, class rooms, departmental offices and conference rooms. Even with its policy of carefully selecting all new students, and its aim at quality rather than quantity in its student body, Ohio Wesleyan cannot refuse additional students and thereby shirk the responsibility that is today thrown upon all institutions of higher learning. Ohio Wesleyan must have the capacity to take care of the increasing number who desire her particular type of Christian education.

Even though indispensable for physical training and musical culture, they have not provided any additional facilities for such class room work as we are mentioning here. $2,350,000 For These 16 New Buildings Note:--(See double page center spread of this book for bird's-eye view of Ohio Wesleyan Campus with present and proposed buildings). 1.

Description An account of the resource [page 23] [corresponds to page 22 in OWU Build Yourself a Living Monument] BUILD YOURSELF A LIVING MONUMENT New Chemistry Building, $250,000, and New Physics Building, $200,000 To be constructed in order that the University may keep abreast of modern times in the instruction given in these two sciences which underlie so much of modern industry. ELLIOTT HALL The present physics and engineering building was built in 1833 as "The Mansion House" to accommodate tourists and seekers after health. It was the building in which Ohio Wesleyan was started in 1842. Its Century of Service entitles it to a place in the Hall of Relics. It should immediately give way to a modern building arranged and equipped for the Engineering Sciences. STURGES HALL This is the Chemistry Building which has rendered generations of service, so that it is no longer good business to spend money repairing it. Our continued use of it is criticized by state authorities, who fully agree with us that it ought to be replaced as soon as possible by a modern building designed for this particular use. Religion and Missions Building, $100,000 The fact that Ohio Wesleyan has sent out more missionaries and has furnished more theological students than any other American Co-edu- cational school, is sufficient justification for her request for funds to construct a building for courses in religion and missions. To continue to be the recruiting station for Methodist leaders and to meet the increasing demands for the Church upon the University, Ohio Wesleyan must have additional facilities to carry on this impor- tant branch of her work. Political Science and Sociology, $150,000 (Business Administration Building) The demands upon her well organized department of business ad- ministration by industries who want young men trained in modern business methods, has automatically increased the number of stu- dents entering the University for this course. This department is already taxed to the limit and to continue to operate efficiently should be provided with a building and equipment of its own. 22 Title A name given to the resource Build Yourself a Living Monument (p.23) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/51f12f5b5591756d8d319055255433c9.jpg db2f8eed980b297ddd6766423ef86a09 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Description An account of the resource [page 24] [corresponds to page 23 in OWU Build Yourself a Living Monument] OHIO WESLEYAN UNIVERSITY Oratory Building, $100,000 This building wtih its stage and small auditorium will permit Ohio Wesleyan's Department of Oratory to carry on its great work in ora- tory, parliamentary law, argumentation and debate, extempore speak- ing, play production, and its many other useful activities. The function of this department is exceedingly practical and val- uable, and gives Ohio Wesleyan students unusual training in the art of public speech. It has taught them to "think on their feet" and "stick to their text," qualities so necessary in moulding public senti- ment and in attaining moral and social leadership. Recitation Hall, $150,000 Will provide well arranged, quiet class room space and will relieve present congestion. At the present time parts of the library, and all available space about the University are used for recitation work, much of it being poorly arranged and not thoroughly heated and ventilated. A recitation building will greatly assist the faculty in scheduling classes and will insure a more uniform meeting place for various classes than is now possible. Model Educational Unit, $100,000 During her eighty years of public service Ohio Wesleyan has given the world thousands of men and women taught to teach. To fill the actual demand from schools, colleges and universities for more and better teachers, she needs this building for the proper training of those preparing for teaching as a life work. This building will permit the development of a practice high school for the practical training of teachers. Ohio Wesleyan is conceded to be doing effective work in this line even with present restricted facilites, but can do much better work if her handicaps are removed. Heat, Light and Power Plant, $100,000 A building necessary to supply the University with its own heat, light and power. The construction of this building will be a measure of economy, as the saving that it will effect in these items will even- tually pay for the investment. A winter day spent in University Hall and Gray Chapel would con- vince anyone of the necessity for an improved heating and lighting system. Seventeen furnaces are now necessary to heat this one building, and the lighting is twenty years behind modern developments. 23 Title A name given to the resource Build Yourself a Living Monument (p.24) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/4fbf3997761245c69f9f010c33efd421.jpg f4ec70715f0c915334ea98428ba1ae77 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

This building will accommo- date about 250 girls in addition to the 300 now housed in Monnett. [image of Watson Hall] WATSON HALL Women's Building, $200,000 Watson Hall will be the social center for the women attending Ohio Wesleyan. It will accommodate the Y.W.C.A., the two literary societies, the Women's Student Government Association, and many other organizations that engender a democratic good-will and hearti- ness among the girls, and create an enduring class and College Spirit. 24 Title A name given to the resource Build Yourself a Living Monument (p.25) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/a171e78785287b0c8ede2e6a8abf44b3.jpg b6c9411e157666c4fda05d7d7da355ca Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Description An account of the resource [page 26] [corresponds to page 25 in OWU Build Yourself a Living Monument] OHIO WESLEYAN UNIVERSITY Men's Commons Building, $250,000 The Men's Commons is needed as a social center, to provide offices for the different undergraduate organizations, and a gathering place for students and faculty in their free hours, under wholesome environ- ment. It will provide a central eating place for men and thus insure hygienic conditions in the preparation and serving of food. Men's Dormitories A--$150,000 and B--$150,000 To care for the proper housing of students now scattered in private houses about town. By bringing students together into larger groups these buildings will preserve and increase the spirit of democracy and friendship which is one of the finest experiences of college life. Campus Extension and Improvement, $150,000 The addition of sixteen new buildings necessitates campus changes, extensions and considerable landscaping and planting. Women's Athletic Field Entirely aside from these campus improvements, is the necessity for a girls' athletic field and locker-house. At the present time the girls must use Edwards Gymnasium and the Boys' Athletic Field, which is a mile from their home at Monnett. Added to this inconvenience is the difficulty in arranging Gymna- sium classes and field games so that schedules between girls and boys will not conflict. The University now owns 14 acres adjoining Monnett Campus which will be converted into a Women's Athletic Field for Tennis, Hockey, Field Sports and other Athletic activities. Intra-Mural Field In a body of nearly 2000 young people, those who keep up their physical condition, and gratify their natural impulse for activity, by taking part in sports, are many. There are so many that the main Athletic Field cannot accommodate them, in view of it belonging more properly to the various contests with visiting teams from other insti- tutions. The intra-mural field is for our own student body. To encourage mass rather than individual athletic training the Uni- versity has many intra-mural contests in all branches of sports between its classes, fraternities and clubs. An intra-mural field must be pro- vided to avoid conflicting dates on the main athletic field and to obviate the necessity of constantly using the Ohio State Guards Armory. 25 Title A name given to the resource Build Yourself a Living Monument (p.26) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/93c1095646da522b2a779fec72130e3a.jpg 2809ff089c213214b6108105c4a5128a Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Description An account of the resource [page 27] [corresponds to page 26 in OWU Build Yourself a Living Monument] BUILD YOURSELF A LIVING MONUMENT How Much Should I Give? THIS is a question that comes to the minds of hundreds of Ohio Wesleyan Alumni and friends. The same question has had to be answered by hundreds of thousands of men and women who have helped support American Universities for the past hundred years. Although some will want to give more and others will be obliged to and should give less, we believe the fol- lowing "Expectance" table will help many persons in determining the least they should invest in Ohio Wesleyan: Amount per year for five years if your income is: $ 5,000 and under...............2% 5,000-$10,000.................2%-3% 10,000- 15,000.................3%-4% 15,000- 25,000.................4% 25,000- 50,000....................5% 50,000-100,000....................7% 100,000 and over..................10% Income Tax Deduction The United States Government through the Federal Income Tax Law recognizes that educa- tional institutions must be supported by public and private gifts. It is therefore permissible for a donor to deduct his gift to such an instit- ution up to 15% of his income. If the gift be paid over a period of years, the amount each year may be deducted from the taxable income of that year. The following table shows how a gift to Ohio Wesleyan may reduce the Federal Income Tax of the donor. Net A Gift to Will reduce Taxable O.W.U. donor's Income in cash of income tax $ 10,000 $1,500 $135.00 15,000 2,250 257.50 20,000 3,000 410.00 25,000 3,750 640.00 50,000 7,500 2,145.00 75,000 11,250 4,522.50 100,000 15,000 7,760.00 200,000 30,000 17,100.00 500,000 75,000 43,500.00 1,000,000 150,000 87,000.00 Your happiness and satisfaction will be increased ten-fold if you will invest in a corner stone instead of a tomb stone. The monuments in the cemeteries of Ohio cost more than enough to generously endow all the Universities in the State. Think this over and then obey the impulse. Among the alumni and friends of our University are those who pay $250 or more for a year's golf or pay as much as $1,000 for a Country Club membership; without think- ing that the good old school at Del- aware gives a year's education for less than the former item, and re- ceives less than the latter for a four- year's course. 26 Title A name given to the resource Build Yourself a Living Monument (p.27) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/389a4f34fe04ab085ca675210f993d47.jpg 382cc8d4c400321fc5f1aa48ab7d8721 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Description An account of the resource [page 30] [corresponds to page 29 in OWU Build Yourself a Living Monument] What Thinkers Have Said About the Nation's Need for Strong Christian Colleges Theodore Roosevelt "To educate a man in mind and not in morals, is to educate a menace to society." John W. Hoffman, President "At Ohio Wesleyan the constant concern is that impulse and idea, thought and skill, culture and character shall ever serve the noblest ends of Christ in his matchless zeal to establish the Kingdom of God on earth. With a passionate determination every fact, every truth, every facility is organized in the noble effort to make the world Christian." Woodrow Wilson "Scholarship has usually been more fruitful when associated with religion, and scholarship has never, so far as I can recall, been associated with any religion except that of Jesus Christ." W. F. King "Properly to plant and nourish a Christian col- lege is one of the highest privileges of Christian men and women. There is no soil so productive as mind, and no seed so fruitful as ideas. He who wishes to do the greatest possible good, and for the longest possible time, should nourish the fountains of learning, and help thirsting youth to the water." Warren G. Harding "Christian education is essential to Christian citizenship and right civic leadership." 29 Title A name given to the resource Build Yourself a Living Monument (p.30) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/3e190a0d82bf03c56deacdc982a0e203.jpg 284fa356ec5971492b45451e021325a6 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Herbert Spencer "To educate the reason without educating the desire is like placing a repeating rifle in the hands of a savage." James J. Hill "The Christian college is the hope of Amer- ica--character is essential to statesmanship, and these colleges are vital factors in the develop- ment of sterling characters." Professor Thompson of Ohio State University "I am in no way untrue to state institutions when I say that in our day a boy might become a bachelor or master in almost any one of the best of them, and be as ignorant to the Bible, the moral and spiritual truth which it represents and the fundamental principles of religion, their nature and value to society, as if he had been educated in a non-Christian country. Who is to supply this lack if not the Christian college?" Eliot "Exclude religion from education and you have no foundation upon which to build moral char- acter." Emerson "Characteris higher than intellect; a great soul will be strong to live as well as to think." 30 Title A name given to the resource Build Yourself a Living Monument (p.31) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/501a6f402526efa750c4a101f05fc17b.jpg 24ee072c34861f393934483e81283d94 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Bishop McDowell "A half century ago Christian education moulded the mind of the boy and girl--today it makes the mind of the nation." Roger W. Babson "The need of the hour is not more factories or materials, not more railroads or steamships, not more armies or more navies, but rather more edu- cation based on the plain teaching of Jesus. "We are willing to give our property and even our lives when our country calls in time of war. Yet the call of Christian education is today of even greater importance than was ever the call of the army or the navy. I say this because we shall probably never live to see America attacked from without, but we may at any time see our best institutions attacked from within. "I am not offering Christian education as a pro- tector of property, because nearly all the great progressive and liberal movements of history have been born in the hearts of Christian educators. I do, however, insist that the safety of our sons and daughters as they go out on the streets this very night is due to the influence of the preachers rather than to the influence of the policemen and lawmakers. Yes, the safety of our nation, includ- ing all groups, depends on Christian education." 31 Title A name given to the resource Build Yourself a Living Monument (p.32) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/1ddafcb0fcfd0b8e1715c98465a194c4.jpg 3a6f7b02c903449af82de82bbe2c513a Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Description An account of the resource [page 35] [corresponds to page 34 of OWU Build Yourself a Living Monument] BUILD YOURSELF A LIVING MONUMENT What Shall I Endow? NEXT to endowing a University or a department of the university, the most important and equally immortal thing that a man can do is to endow a chair. There are departments and professorships in the colleges of the old English Universities that have perpetuated the names of their founders for hundreds of years. The wise way is to endow a department or a chair but not to specify the study. Leave that to be designated by the Trustees from time to time in future years. No man can foretell the relative demands fifty years from now in the many branches of education, and such professor- ships, like the universities themselves, live forever. How Can I Make My Pledge? ON the next page is a facsimile reproduction of the Pledge Card adopted by the Board of Trustees for use in the Ohio Wesleyan Development Program. It is designed to cover the needs of most givers and at the same time so simplify the contract that the Treasurer's office can easily keep an accurate record of each contract. The total amount of each donor's subscription should be written on the first dotted line within the body of the contract.

Coming from a neighboring city as I do, I feel almost a personal interest in the growing fortunes and influence of Ohio Wesleyan. It has always been an Ohio institution in which those of us in neighboring counties felt a very especial pride, and I know something of the splendid con- tribution which the University has made to men eminent in the professional, religious and political life of the republic. Fortunately located, with a splendid record already made, I can well believe that the friends of Ohio Wesleyan will take exceptional interest in making an outstanding success of the large program which you have in mind. Please be assured of my more than cordial good wishes. Very truly yours, [signature of Warren Harding] Prof. John T. Marshman, Ohio Wesleyan University, Delaware, Ohio.

For more information see, http://dublincore.org/documents/dces/. Description An account of the resource [page 5] [corresponds to unlabeled page 5 of Beeghly Library] The design of the L. A. Beeghly Library provides for access to knowl- edge. Its four floors, representing an area of 105,000 square feet, are spacious and open, but careful placement of bookshelves and furniture creates small, well-delineated study areas on each floor. Each study area contains the books needed by a specific academic discipline in addition to adequate study carrells and lounge facili- ties to accommodate students using that particular section of the library. For example, one large study area located on the third floor is designed to house the many books associated in the broadest sense with the humanities. A student working in the general disci- pline of the humanities can go to the open stacks in this area to find the books he needs and then return to adjacent tables or carrells to do his studying or research. Similar study areas are spaced throughout the library. In addition to being aesthetically pleasing, the openness of Beeghly Library gives the building a flexibility which will keep it functional for years to come. Column spacing in the library's stacks permits them to be turned in any required direction. Thus, individual study areas can be made larger or smaller as a changing academic pro- gram or new library servicing techniques might dictate. Air conditioned throughout, Beeghly Library houses more than a third of a million volumes (books, periodicals, and pamphlets) as well as microcards, microfilm, microprint, and other instructional media. In addition, the library serves as a depository for Federal government documents. The total cost of Beeghly Library, including furnishings, was $2,110,668. Title A name given to the resource L. A.

Description An account of the resource [page 10] [corresponds to unlabeled page 10 of Beeghly Library] [half of map of OWU campus; the next page contains the other half of the map] Beeghly Library, located on University Avenue, realized the initiation of a plan to unite Ohio Wesleyan's Residential Campus with its East Campus. The building's covered entry, landscaped ter- race, and paved plaza were designed as part of a pedestrian mall to be construc- ted on University Avenue when the two campuses are eventually joined. The brick, limestone, and granite used for the library's exterior were chosen be- cause of their visual relationship with the exterior materials of existing build- ings: red brick on the Residential Cam- pus, and stone on the East Campus. Ohio Wesleyan gratefully recognizes the cooperation it received from the people of Delaware in securing the site for Beeghly Library, and extends special thanks to Mr. Jack Florance and Mr. Harry Humes for serving as co-chairmen of a Delaware Citizens' Committee.

Description An account of the resource [page 21] [corresponds to unlabeled page 21 of Beeghly Library] OHIO WESLEYAN UNIVERSITY DELAWARE, OHIO 43015 January 24, 1967 Dear Friend: The academic year 1966-67 marks the 125th anniversary of the founding of Ohio Wesleyan University. The year will be historically significant in unique measure as the year in which beautiful L. A. Beeghly was placed in service. I venture to suggest that no other university of our kind and size in America will have a more prideful addition to its educational facilities this year. The library represents a giant step into the future. There is enclosed a dedicatory brochure which pictures and describes the library. Such a publication can only hint at educational dimensions inherent in a building of this kind, with its wonderful facilities for independent study and its extensive audio and visual equipment. I invite you -- indeed, I urge you -- to visit the campus soon to see at first hand the beauty and the promise of this handsome campus addition. An outpouring of generosity by the principal donor, together with a similar degree of devotion from many alumni and friends of the University, have made this library possible. On behalf of all of us, and especially on behalf of the students today and the thousands to come, I wish to express heartfelt gratitude. May you visit us soon! Sincerely, Elden T.
