Press of the Missouri Printing and Publishing Company, Mexico. Mo. PREFACE STATE in the union has produced a bet- ter or a higher type of womanhood than Iowa. From pioneer days until the pres- ent they have had a very helpful interest in the advancement of education, of the arts, of literature, of religious and moral training, in the great work of philanthropy and of social service in all of its phases. Some of them have been women of unusual talent and have a national reputation, and some have a world-wide reputation. To record the achievements of these exceptional women, and to make a permanent record of the lives and work of the women who within the State and in their own commu- nities have given their service to the common good is the object of this book. It is not claimed that all the women deserving recognition are included in these pages, no book would be large enough to contain them all. The labor involved in collecting and compiling this history has been far beyond our expectation, yet if we have added to the written history of our state, or if the lives herein recorded prove an inspiration to others, it will be compensation for all the labor it has cost.

My personal memory, among many, is of the half-time pep talks of my foot- ball coach. Coach Junius B. Ferrall’s admonitions ran something like this: “Play your best, for you will replay these games in your minds the rest of your lives.” Sure, Coach, you bet! Now in my seventies, I am startled from time to time because I still replay those 1940s games in my mind. I say to myself, “If I had only. .” Coach Ferrall made a difference in my life and in the lives of countless others. Athletes of Purpose gave me great joy in its writing. Much of the credit for that joy goes to the children’s department of the Wooster Public Library. The staff helped me time and again with my search for background material. Denise Cheyney, my daughter-in-law, was very helpful with her knowledge of the Internet, as was my wife, Jeanne, who once again spent much time proofing the many drafts of the manuscript.
