DREHER ENT PHILLIPS

lil,
1897.
12, 1916.
/||NX the second day of our Spring vacation occurred the death of Dreher PhilIjpJ lips, who was a member of the class of 191() in the Commercial Course.
On February 19th he underwent an operation for appendicitis and had
apparently made a satisfactory recovery, when on March (>, he suffered a relap.se.
His condition grew rapidly worse and death followed six daj's later.
His death came as a great shock to his school friends, as the majority' of
them were not aware of his critical condition. There is, perhaps, but a small
number who can claim a close personal acquaintance with Dreher. He was a
quiet, modest youth, and those who knew him intimately, especially those in the
Commercial Department, knew of his sterling character and quiet, friendly manner.

hi.story which would do anything like justice to it, he would have to combine the i)oetic fancy of a Byron, the vocabularj' of a Johnson, and the simplicity
of a Ruskin.
Since there is no individual, even in this class, who has these combined qualities, we can only hope to give to you the barest outline of our achievments and plans.

Callieiiians look back with great pleasure to the time spent under the
watchful eyes of the Callie Owl.
l.I.
c^
For forty-two years, or since the time of organization, the thread of CalThe organization, having only ten charter
liepian hi,story has been unbroken.
members, sprang from our sister society Philo.
—
Since that time the growth of Callie in power, influence, and excellence of
work has shown that "Excellence or Nothing" is, in deed as well as name, our
motto.
The name "Calliepian" coming from the Greek meaning "iieautiful Speech",
has alwaj^s been an ideal to the members.
"Praestantia aut Nihil", not only
the motto but an embodiment of the spirit of the .society, has helped make the
life at Normal a noble and more successful one.
The "Owl", our emblem, stands on guard above the motto in Callie Hall
and seems to direct the duties of the members.
The Callies meet every Saturday evening in Callie Hall a place well adapted
for an evening spent in literary work and ])leasant .social intercourse.
The administrative work of the .society with its discussion of busine.ss and
its connnittees, together with the literary work, tends to make a person well]irepared for jiublic organization and partici])ation in literary affairs.
The programs given at these meetings are both instructive and entertaining.
—
They
con.sist of recitations and readings, essays, debates, extemporaneous talks,
and musical selections both vocal and instrumental, and they are always closed
by the reading of the "Journal." This weekly paper, an important part of the
society's work, has its usual editorial, Philo exchange, current events, athletics,
poem, jokes, and entertaining personals.
Once each school term the .society gives a Public Program in the Normal
auditorium in order to show what Callie is doing in literary work. Special effort
is
made
in the jireparation of these
programs.
We
celebrated the most important event of the year, our forty-.second Reunion, on February nineteenth.
On this day friends and members of Callie returned to renew old acquaintances, and to form new friendships as a link to bind
them closer to Callie and to the school.
The success of the day was foretold by the splendid Public Program given in
the morning in Callie Hall.
The address by Dr. D. J. Waller and the remarks of
the former members of both Callie and Philo helped to make the program a success.
The afternoon was s])ent in dancing and pleasant .social intercourse in the
artistically decorated gymnasium.
The usual evening drama was the production of Shakspeare's comedy, "The
Taming of the Shrew". The work of each member of the cast was creditably
done.
The excellence with which this drama was rendered brought to a close
the mo.st succe.ssful Reunion in the history of Callie.
The Callies of the Class of lilKJ will always hold very dearly in their hsarts
a love for their society.

1897.
12, 1916.
/||NX the second day of our Spring vacation occurred the death of Dreher PhilIjpJ lips, who was a member of the class of 191() in the Commercial Course.
On February 19th he underwent an operation for appendicitis and had
apparently made a satisfactory recovery, when on March (>, he suffered a relap.se.
His condition grew rapidly worse and death followed six daj's later.
His death came as a great shock to his school friends, as the majority' of
them were not aware of his critical condition. There is, perhaps, but a small
number who can claim a close personal acquaintance with Dreher. He was a
quiet, modest youth, and those who knew him intimately, especially those in the
Commercial Department, knew of his sterling character and quiet, friendly manner.

Callieiiians look back with great pleasure to the time spent under the
watchful eyes of the Callie Owl.
l.I.

For forty-two years, or since the time of organization, the thread of CalThe organization, having only ten charter

members, sprang from our sister society Philo.
—
Since that time the growth of Callie in power, influence, and excellence of
work has shown that "Excellence or Nothing" is, in deed as well as name, our
motto.
The name "Calliepian" coming from the Greek meaning "iieautiful Speech",
has alwaj^s been an ideal to the members.
"Praestantia aut Nihil", not only
the motto but an embodiment of the spirit of the .society, has helped make the
life at Normal a noble and more successful one.
The "Owl", our emblem, stands on guard above the motto in Callie Hall
and seems to direct the duties of the members.
The Callies meet every Saturday evening in Callie Hall a place well adapted
for an evening spent in literary work and ])leasant .social intercourse.
The administrative work of the .society with its discussion of busine.ss and
its connnittees, together with the literary work, tends to make a person well]irepared for jiublic organization and partici])ation in literary affairs.
The programs given at these meetings are both instructive and entertaining.
—
They
con.sist of recitations and readings, essays, debates, extemporaneous talks,
and musical selections both vocal and instrumental, and they are always closed
by the reading of the "Journal." This weekly paper, an important part of the
society's work, has its usual editorial, Philo exchange, current events, athletics,
poem, jokes, and entertaining personals.
Once each school term the .society gives a Public Program in the Normal
auditorium in order to show what Callie is doing in literary work. Special effort
is
made
in the jireparation of these
programs.
We
celebrated the most important event of the year, our forty-.second Reunion, on February nineteenth.
On this day friends and members of Callie returned to renew old acquaintances, and to form new friendships as a link to bind
them closer to Callie and to the school.
The success of the day was foretold by the splendid Public Program given in
the morning in Callie Hall.
The address by Dr. D. J. Waller and the remarks of
the former members of both Callie and Philo helped to make the program a success.
The afternoon was s])ent in dancing and pleasant .social intercourse in the
artistically decorated gymnasium.
The usual evening drama was the production of Shakspeare's comedy, "The
Taming of the Shrew". The work of each member of the cast was creditably
done.
The excellence with which this drama was rendered brought to a close
the mo.st succe.ssful Reunion in the history of Callie.
The Callies of the Class of lilKJ will always hold very dearly in their hsarts
a love for their society.
