Dear Sons ot Viator:-You have always been a source ot
encouragement to the teachers who have been a source ot Inspiration to you. Chiet ly through your generosity has Viator grown trom the little school !ounded in 1865 by Father Beaudoin and Brothers Bernard and Martell and supported by their meager earnings, to u magnt!Iclent Col1ege with a group Qt bulldJngt~ upon a beautitul la ndsca1:>ed campus o! spacious acres, well-manned s.nd equippe-d to care Cor its tour hundred students. Your inves tment has yielded a thousandfold. Success urges us to g r eater e!forts and hence today we come to you Alumni and fri ends ot St. Viator College and ask you to endow your College. In this practical age tt Is not necessary tor me to advance r easons to prove the needs and advan· tages ot an Endowment. The dally papers announce government approprla· lions to State Universities a.mounUng annually to several millions ! or current expenses and also tabulo us sums ! rom private pbUanthropy tor the support and endowment o! Non-Catholic denoml· national schools.

A VIA TOR STUDENT ON THE ENDOWMENT Dayo a t college are glori ous and happy days, days of hope filled
with noble nthuoiiUlll and fired by the splendor of high idealism. they a re days in wh ich the student builds within his mind the palace wherein to treuure the ins p iration that will guide him adown th e labyri nthian w ays o f th e futur e. It is a time in which th e re come to him argooies, laden with knowledge, sailing out of the past, ready to un load at hie feel what prophets have seen in vision and poets in dreom. To him , in the valley, they d escend from the mountain of contempla tion ; where they h ave read the secret scri p ture of the w e. rid and have seen in to the mystery of life and eternity, men bearing the varied gifts of wisdom to enrich and to give dignity to his life. Up from the bowels of th e earth there come to him men who have quarried a midst the deep s of na tur e bea ri ng in their volumes the imar,es of Himself that God has flun g abroad upon the world. A ll th ese th e student can ha ve, if in the h a n d s of his college there is placed th e key with w h ich to open the door, that wou ld lead h er students into

outstanding eVe nt of the year. However a st eady downpour of r a in throughout the entire day climaxed by a severe storm in the vicinity of the College brought on unfa vorable circumsta nces to disappoint both the s pOnsors and the .Pa trons .of the dance. D espite the in· clemency of the weather, the da nce committee proceed ed with a ll the prepara· tiona. A t 8:00 P. M. a long-dis tance telephone call from Paxton I llinois in· form ed t he committee tha t the orchestra
the Qffi cers for the ens u ing year were here th r·ce years ago, Mr. Fitzgerald has manifested keen Interest In the various act ivities of his class and hi~ selection Is the crowning g lory of his loyal efforts.
which ha d been engaged for t he evening was una ble to come any further because of the deep water on the r oad to K a n kakee. The last train out of Paxton ha d pulled out of t h~. town a ha lf hour before so It was impossible for the orchestra to get to the College. After a frantic search for mus icians an orchestra was fin ally secured in Kankakee t o s ubstitu te for the widely heralded Bill Donohue 's orchestra of the Univer sity of Illinois.
The gymnasium was beautifull y decora ted for the dance. Crepe paper of various color s was used to form massive s hades for the lig hts. Potted plan ts, ferns a nd pa lms added much to the a ttractiveness of the setting. The beauty ·of the gymnMium was fur ther enhanced by t he a rtistic orchestra platfonn . A large fl owing drape for med the background for t he platform, w hile large baskets of flowers a long with the palms and ferns formed a comple te ef fect of unus ual beauty.
A r ecord crowd attended the dance a nd almost everyone was g racious enough to wait patiently while the im· provised orchestra was 19eing assembled. A very enjoyable evening followed t he a rriva l of the orchestra.
e lec ted . Wnrren McCiellaml, w ho wlll be a senior next year, was chosen by the assembly to pres ide in t he chair left va cant b'Y Presiden t Dalrymple. Mr. McClella nd, who claims Bloomington as his very own, has long been a n active and e nergetic m ember of the Coll ege Club a nd he has done much to f os te r the many activities that ha ve taken place in that body during the last three years. His selection carries with it an acknowledgm ent by his fe llow clu bmen of his req.l worth a nd their confidence in his ability to perform the duties of of!ice in a very commendable m a nner . Mr . McClelland was installed in office immediate ly afte r the ballots had been counted a nd be had been d.;lclared winner . '£he reti ring president, Mr. Dalrymple, presented Mr. McClel· land with the gavel, s ig nificant of the office of preside nt and congratulated his successor for the s igna l honor that had been conferred upon h im. After thanking the members f or their confi· dence in his a bllity, the n ew p resident graciously declined to assume office at tha t time a nd asked Mr. Dalrymple to r em ain in the cha ir.

ST. VIATOR'S OUTLOOK FROM THE REALM WHY ENDOW ST VIATOR COLLEGE? OF IDEAS TO THE • . ..
Rev. T. E. Shea, '18, Bloomington, Ill. REALM OF DEEDS Rev. John P . O'Mahoney, c. s. v., Director of Endowment Acbvtbea.
St. Viator 's outlook! \Vhu.t Is it ? Had 1 the Inspiration and skill or an artist, I would pa.lnt I t in colol·ful splendor for the eyes o! you t hful dreamers. Had I the vision a nd girt ot a poet, I would sing it In rapturou s cadence for the ears of a ppreclati ve listeners. Had I the language a nd thought of an ot-ator, I would speak it in eloquent pleaclin g t o t he hearts ot. devoted alumni. To none of these can I lay c laim a nd so \Ve s ha ll look to St. Viato r as she Is In the reality a nd p e1·haps you shall ft n d thE:we, in mortru: and brick and men, the dreams of artist,the sons of poet, the plea of orato1·.
The outlook of an institution, like the outlook of a n individua l, depends upon its opportunities, a nd opportunities are lifeless- a r e worse than life less, are tragedies-if the m eans of realizing them are wanting. A m a n m ay have talent and genius abounding but if the opportunity for that tale nt and genius and the m eans of r ealiz ing it n ever present themselves, h e is but a nother gem , mayhap "of purest rays serene, that dark unfathomed caves of ocean bear." And so with the institution that has the genius and desire to fulfill a g reat mission, what a pity if no fie ld is r eady for it; but if the fi e ld is open , the opportunity is present and yet the means to go into that fi e ld , the means to l'ealize tha t opportunity is denied, w h a t a tragedy. Genius smothered! The multitude starved because the r e was no philanthrophy interested enough, n o loyalty true enough to a fford the m ean s!
one new building and that n eed m ust be met within Lhe n ext two o t· three years.
Gentlemen of the Alu mni, is it not evident the great development, that is possible to our A lma Matm· if only s h e is given t he m eans'! Is it not p lain t h e golden opportunity that is h e rs I! only s he is given a c hance to grasp i t? Within a few years her student body doubled ; a nd, f1·eed from em barras lng encumbrances, St. V iator's rise to the proud posi tlon of the gTeat est s m a ll co ll ege in the Mid-~'est.
Gentlem e n , this is not the wild extravagance o! misguided imagination. It is not the fantastic dream of idealistic pt·ofessors. Asl< those men, those men of St. Viator's f aculty who have grown gray in a noble service, who h ave given their brain and hearts and souls to her building-ask them about their opportunities and n eeds. They are not impractical vis ionaries : they a r e m en w h o f or years have wrestled with the mos t practical side ot the material world, and with obstacles, r everses and fa ilures. They are the m en who have acted while we theorized, who have done the things we talked about, w ho have p layed the ha r d game while we sat on the sidelines and a pplauded. And this vis ion of a n ew o utlook Is not m erely a mimge tanta lizing a w a ndering mind; it is a r eality seen with the undimmed eyes of clear v isioned, practical men ·whose very souls a 1·e at re mble lest they have not the mea ns to rea lize it.
The firs t serious but Informal dis· c ussion of an Endowment for St. VIator College took place a m ong the AlumnJ a nd friends who had gathered at the College for the celebra tion ot Father Mars lle 's Golden J ubllee. Ot the m a ny enthusias tic supporters o f the idea there w ere two who faithfull y p racticed the sc1·iptura l injunction. "Be ye doers of the word, a nd not hear e rs on ly." They were the R everend Joseph V. LaMarre, President of the Alumni Association, a nd Miss A nna M. Duffy, a teacher tn the city schools ot Kankakee. The former r equested the Treasurer of the Exte nsion Club to dra w up a n En· dowment pledge immediately, a nd start the good work. No othe r pape r was available, but a telegram bla nk, on this was written the pledge, as follows:
I have grown so accustomed a ll my life to dream dreams and to .see visions t hat for me my dreams are reo.lltie.s a nd my visions are palpable. Those dreams are centered In Viator and like n il dreams they gather t he fairy gossnm e l· whic h constitutes their warp and woof from the actlualitles of. the p~t a nd the hopes of the future. In my v ision Viator is a growing yo uth, a comely youth, a youth with a predestined future. Born in poverty, cradled In adversi t y, nurtured in the sorrow of struggling hope, he ha.s waxed strong Into the proportions of an athle t e prepared to do battle in the world 's a r ena. Throbbin g with life a nd activity, with vigorous blood pulsating throug h his veins. v italized with tha t spirit wi\Ich begets energy, he is fitted to reach the full stature or true manhood. Ye t he is but a youth-a promising youth It is true-yet merely a you th and he needs to grow. The e lem e nts which gave him birth, sustained h is life , and which enrich h is being t oday, a r e the same elements w h ich must be pou red out in abundance upon his f lesh If he is to step forth in to fixed existence with a soul that shall never die.
leges Is Imparted an education whlch Ia complete, which jlleglect.s nothing that Is essential to the full developmen t ot the physical, the intellectual and th~ moral man; a n education which floods the mind with the light of truth w hile tllllng the heart with the sublime princ iples ot r e llglon a nd morality as the mainsprings of. noble deeds, heroic action, and g lorious achievement ; an education In which the elements are so perfectly blended tha.t It draws f orth a nd develops the latent powers of. human nature and infuses into them strength , vigor, life, energy, until these transmuted into character, present tor the a dmiration of the world the noblest work of God-honest u pright men, modes t vi rtuous women.
"To the greater glo r y ot God, we establish a n Endowment for the a dvancement of Catholic education at St. Viator Co11ege."
By Ad Memoriam
Father LaMarre signed this p ledge and took steps at once to turn over t o the Extension Club, for the Endowment, an Insurance policy for $10,000, to the m emory of the LaMa r re and Ma 1·sile families .
What is St. Viator's outlook? W hat are h e r opportunities? S he stands out one of two Cath olic boarding Colleg~s in the g reat state of Illinois ; for u s, s he stands out a lone. T h e great commonwealth of Illinois is h er almost undiv ided field , the teeming Catholic population of this state t he material upon which she may stamp her mark . Sh·~
need have no anxie ty for material to work on , for the yo·uth c! this and the other states of the miJdle West wm crowd her halls if Hht can but r cc ~ive them .
This outlook they a r e facing now and in a short time they must decide whe t· h e r St. Viator's shall take her place in it or whether s h e shall turn back from it a nd le t it fade forever.
The character of that decision, Fellow Alumni, is ours to make . If the opportunity of St. Viator's as a Catholic Educational Institution is g reat, the responsibility of us, h er alumni, i~ equally weighty, will we accept and measure up t o tha t responsibility? That: is the question she asks u s, and
As laborers in this fertile field she we answer, as we act , h er course is has a faculty of which no othe r college made. She does not ask us for anyher size and very f ew la rger than she thing that s he might have glory before can equal, a teaching staff brilliant the world; m agnificent buildings, stately with the personnel of illustrious men , halls m ean nothing to h e r b u t a means and these men burning with one desire, to accomplish a noble mission; without engaged in one task that comes nearest that mission h a lls and buildings are the Divine . God creates souls but to m eaning less m onuments . These men of these men a nd others like them-to the tha t Fourth order of royalty do no t teacher-God gives those sou ls He ask for the appla u se of the wo1·!d or any created to be moulded and form ed and comfort for them selves; these t hings fashion ed. they have forsworn long ago when they

NORTH CENTRAL ASSN. STATEMENT .
ON FINANCES
With the r em a rk, that this gave h er a s plendid opportunity to carry out a promise which she had made to he r father upon his death·bed, Miss Du ffy signed this pledge, r eser ving to h e rself the rig ht to determine late r on the form ot h e r contribution. Some months la t er she, tn fulfillm ent of this pledge, gave the deed to forty acres of la nd, near Buckingham, Illlnois, to the College as a m em orial to her parents.
Thus, the Endowment was s ta rted and it s h a ll be foreve r commemorated in the halls of St. Viator by a bronze tablet, on which sh a ll be inscribed the words of the Endowment pledge, with the names of all those contributors who shall deserve to be considered founders of the St. Viator College Endow m ent Fund.
ENDOWMENT INSURANCE
CATECHISM Q. W hy is 1 h~ E ndowment Insurar,ce
pla n an ideal method of helpin g a colle~;e:·
A. Because it is the most certain way of iJe rformlng a good work, with the mlnim\l m of tJ ·~... uble and expenditur e.
Q. Why is Life Insurance a ce rtain way of performing a good work?
A. Because it pays immediately upon approval of the c laim, and is n ot s ubject to the vicis si tudes of legal processes and distributions.
Q. How does it affect the small college?
A. It opens up a n ew field for deve lopment for the s m a ll coffegP. , making it possible f or an edu cation a l in sti tutions t o ins tall the mos t m odern equipment. It a lso can be made a n aid t o students, both from the standpoint of s h ort-time loans and self h elp.
Q. Why should the Endowment plan appeal to a ll college graduates?
A. Because it will enable t h e coming generation of boys and gi rls to ad· vance themselves, morally, ment a lly and physically.
Q. How does it excell as a m e thod of contributin g to College s upport?
A . In the fi r s t place it Is a gift n ot burdensome to the giver, cal ling for only a small annual premium, say $4 5.00 a t the age of 35, while at the sam e time insuring the payment of $1,000.00 to the college upon the decease of the insured party. Then if the payments continue the ben eficiary, "in this case the College", on the twentieth year , without litig ation, can collect the face of the policy plus accumulated dividends.
Q . How many types of Endowment Ins urance can be employed b y a
college? A. The most common types a r e group
Insura nce a nd Individual Insur· a nce.

"In beauty c la d , 'With health in every vein, And reason throned upon hiH brow."
Those forces which will perfect and perpetuate hi s life a nd which w ill multiply a nd enrich the fruit s thereof a r e : that mountain-moving taith which w ill draw m en from every generalion a nd walk of li fe to dedicat e themselves to His service to do the d eeds of learned, high-minded, God-fearin g m en; that ever-increasing discipleship which will enshrine loya lty , scintillating with deVO· tion , tn student hearts t hat n ever grow old; that friendship true and una lloyed which by deeds of loving generosity will extend the sphere o! his activities. Give Viator these and h e w ill go forth at the bidding of the Lord with the in trepid courage or a David to confound the P hilistines and to lead the children of God through the paths o! knowledge in to the Promised L and o! truth.
All who can thus visualize the worth of s uch an institution as St. Viator College unite with those who are intimately connected with its destiny in expressin g their appreciation of the need of Catholic higher education. They are a live to the needs of the times a nd realize that unless the mighty forces which are now so active in shaping human destiny are t empered with the staying influen ce of religion the ideals of America are endangered and the progress of Christianity in terrupterl.. Never rnoreso than today in the social and poli tical life ot our count1·y was there n eed of men and women imbued with the principl es of sound m orality and the ideals o! true patriotism; men and women not only of ideals but with the virtue aud courage of their convic· tions. Never was there a louder call for the leadership of s u ch men and wom en: never a greater n eed of enligh t· ened leadership, intelligent strategy and courageous action. VVe Cath olics cannot stand aside and let events s hape their course nor can we be content with servile following of blind leaders of the blind. God through the inspired voice of a L eo, a Benedict, a P ius, calls upon us from the eternal bills w hereon His throne on earth is es ta blished. la ity as well as clergy, to s trugg le wi t h might and main until Justice s h a ll rule the hearts of men, the parliments of the world a nd t he councils of t he mighty. Pe~ce! Peace! there is no peace in the world today but the peace of starvation and death ; of g r eed, r a pine and plunder; of humanity enfettered, enslaved in its hundreds of millions crus hed beneath the c runching w heels of the Juggernaut of might; and there will be no peace as long as the mass ot huma nity in s u pine indolence passively tolerate the blasphemy of their leaders who banish God from their deliberations. W h er e can 've find m en and women with the ability , the training and the virtu e to concentrate the mighty forces of sood which need only organization and leadership to win the battle of A rmageddon? Our Officers' training Camps are the Catholic Colleges of the land. There the leaders of Catholic thought, policy and action are to be m oulded. T hrough th e broad a n d humanizing influence of a liberal education v italized by t h e spirit of r e ligion there is growing u p in o ur Colleges a manhood and a womanhood which warrant us In making the assertion that w e are doing our s hare to help our country solve the mighty questions
Are our Colleges sut!icient ! or the task? Are they efficien t ? They w ill be su!ticlent, they wlll be efficient w he n the Catholic wealth of the country a deCtuate ly supports them. Then and not tlll then in the ti tanic s truggle of justice agalnst injustice w ill the Cathol1c Church of America take the p lace which Is h e r s by right inherent a nd by the guaranteed rights of the American Constitution. We need men to man o ur Colleges, men of noble instinct who by nature and grace are fitted to meet the sacrifices which will make them worthy to dedicate their llves to the glorious cause of religious education. As long as the religio n of Jesus Christ retains its div ine charm to draw the hearts of man to the service of love, so long shall the consecrated efforts of the Christian rostrum lead men thr ough the enchanting vistas of science into the realms of lig h t supernal. God will do His part, He will supply the men, but indispensable t h ough this e lem ent is, yet It is not s ufficient fo r the triumph of. Christian education. We ·n eed men to fight battles but it would be perfidious treache ry to send them f orth to meet t he enemy without arms a nd ammunition; so likewise i! we desire the triumph of Christian ideals we Catholics must forge the weapons and contribu te the m eans which will make our Catholic educators valiant in God's holy cause. We want our Co11eges to stand in the forefront of scientific progress, we want their equipment to meet the exacting test of modern standards, we want them to lead, not to follow. For this we need w ealth and need it badly to supply the s inews of war. The paltry pittance of tuition f ees but mocks our poverty. Bor· rowed funds and mortgaged estate enslave in entangled finance those who turned their backs upon the marts of trade that by sacred vow they might renounce earthly pursuits so as to give their emancipated souls free and un· divided to a work which dem ands the whole heart, the whole mind, the whole body, the whole soul, the entire man. Their sacred and exacting vocation en joins upon Catholic educators the stand taken by the Apostles when they said to the multutude: · " It is not reason that we s hould leave the word of God to serve t ables. 1Vhere!ore, brethren, look ye out a mong you-men-whom we m ay appoint over this business. But we w ill give ourselves continually to prayer and the ministry of the word." The material n eeds of our insti tutions of higher learning then must b e provided for by those whom God has blessed w ith weal th for no other purpose than to use its surplus in p r omoting the welfa r e of their fe llow-men'. T he r e must be in this land of ours, ~o rich in its r esources, so m agnificent in Its en terprises, so bounteous in its opportunit ies, an awakening faith which will make our Catholic people rival thei r a ncestor s who delighted in crowning hills and sanctifying valleys with schools and monasteries thus exemplifying to the world that human life even here in th is world is glorified by consecrated effort. Wealth should rejoice In the opportunity of doing good a n d what g reater work can we do than mantull y to do the part which God throu g h the circumstances of life h a s ass ig ned t o u s in the unceasing battle which the forces of good are bound to wage agains t the forces o! evil until the Great Arbiter shall close the gates of time and g~ther into the blissful r ealms of eternity t h ose who have fou g ht the good fight and kept the faith.

ties. Here are the facts. St. Viator' s
The following excerpt from the r egulations o! the North Cent ral Association , a r ecognized standardizing author ity, shows the need of an endowment tn order that a College such as St. Viator's may continue to be accredited.
A . There are two forms of g roup insurance. One in whtdi' the individual members of a class take out policies of the same amount, a n d all contribute equally to the pay· m ent of premiums; a nd the oth e r, a system of premium rota tion, whereby each c lass pays part of the premium on a large individual policy, throughout four years of college attendance. Not e. Such a plan has been outlined and passed u pnn by the College Club of St. Viator College.
which pe rplex he r and to solve them --------------as an educational institution has forged her way to the front where s h e hn.s earned r ecognition of tirst rank. Some yea.r s ago her high school course was accr edited by the University of Illinois and within the past year the State University placed he r college department on the r ecognized list ot accredited col leges, with two of her courses singled out for special commendation by the Univer sity inspector because of the excellency of the course and the remarka ble efficiency of the professors. With this advance in standards has gone a steady increase in student enrollment until now the college is ove r c rowded. 'Vhile big outlays have been made , th.e equipment a,nd uppa ratus n eccss::u·y IS
by no means adequate, and the housing of the student body has become a very alarming problem. There Is not a room in the r esidence building that has not in It two :Jtudents and In m.'\n Y ther e are three. In such crowded conditi~ns as these ma..ximum e!ficlency and htgh scholarship are next t o impossible . There Is an urgent need !or at least 200.
"The College, if a corporate insUtu· tton, shall have a minimum a nnual in· come o! $50,000 f or its educational program, one-halt' of which shall be from sources other t han payment by students, and an additional annu a l income ot $5,000, one-halt of which shall be from sources other than payments by students, for each 100 students above 200. Such college, 1! not tax-supported , shall possess a productive endowment etfective for the first accrediting In
1924 and 1925 of. $400,000 and in 1926 ot $500,000 and for all accredited instttu · tiona ot this class in 1927 or $500,000, and an addition a l endowmen t of $50,000
for each additional 100 students above
Q. What does the plan of Individual Insurance suggest?
A. The Individual Insurance plan calls for a campaign among the Al umni of the College to secure policies, to the amou nt that the Individua l ,wishes ·to ~ive, with the college named as the benertclary.
