LEXVIS KRAVET, 13 4 THE GLEANER The Qalutatnrp BY JAMES WoRK, '13 FRIENDS: After two, three, or four years, as the case may be, in the National Farm School, we are going proudly forth, diplomas in our hands, and a feeling of satisfaction, yea, elation, in our hearts. For have We not accomplished something, have we not proven we have that attribute, that power so aptly termed stick-to-it-iveness by Rooseveltg have we not assimilated knowledge? VVhether we put this knowledge into im- mediate practice or not, whether we step forth to enter agricultural callings or not, we have that wealth of knowledge within us, that wealth that but needs our wish to be changed from wealth to capital, capable of production. We have had imbued within us the love of Nature, of the green fields, of the pathless woods,-that love which we can ne'er express, yet cannot all conceal. The advantages have here been offered us, we have taken them, we have grasped all offered. Some of us may be skeptical of the oppor- tunities in practical agriculture, thinking too much along the same line as the one who remarked, T he only opportunities in agriculture are in telling' it to others. But remember, opportunities come not with their face value stamped on them. Farming at the present time may not be the most remunerative of occupations, it may not be the easiest, it may not be the most pleasant, but the day is fast approaching when it will be the only vocation, the day when each man will sit beneath his own fig tree. Then must our knowledge surely be changed to capital. As we leave the school, one phase of our life has passed, a bright future is opening to us. But dwell not on, dream not too much of, the bright future. Think not because you have a training, both a prac- tical and theoretical training, that your future is assured. Rather let us live each day. Don't dream. It reminds me of the old story: Uncle William, are you troubled with the hereafter? I No, suh, it's de wharfo' of de herein what keeps me guessin'. The door to great knowledge, to a wonderful vocation, has been opened to us by President Doctor Krauskopf, thru our school. I say Doctor Krauskopf, for his name is indelibly connected with, is bound by chains of love, of self-sacrifice, to that of the National Farm School. It was thru his untiring efforts that the School was founded, it is due to his untiring efforts that it still exists, that it has made such rapid strides in its short history. Our thanks toward him, our appreciation of his work, are too great for expression. Our appreciation of, our respect for, the Faculty, cannot be too , THE GLEAN ER 5 great, for it is they who have taught us, have reared us during our stay here, it is they who have shown us ideals toward which we should strive. Then let us all join in heartfelt thanks to all, President, Board and Faculty, and let us prove an honor to our Alma Mater, remembering: T Build it well, whate'er ye dog Build it straight and strong and true, Build it high and clean and broad, Build it for the eye of God. Walehictnrp BY MARTIN FEREsHET1AN, '13 The object of education is to teach men how to live, and the proper use of that training for humanity at large determines its value. Wliat the world needs to-day are men who do things, men who can shoulder some part of the world's common burden, men who have a well-balanced development 3 men whose cultured brain controls and directs atrained hand. ' We are living in a practical age, and all things must be done with asystem and definite object in view. The training of men for agricul- tural pursuits must be done as carefully and earnestly as the training of those in the so-called higher professions. There is a prevalent, yet erroneous idea, that any one may become an agriculturist, or farmer, if you please, without any study or previous preparation. This in itself lays a false foundation for a successful career. The reason why there are so many failures among men,-and there are many, who go from city to city to the farm with the expectation of finding riches with the least effort,-is the too much enthusiasmnand very little if any temperamental or vocational fitness. i It is difficult for a man to change the training and mode of life of years to one entirely new and diametrically opposite and find content- ment or happiness, yet every day we hear about men who sell their business or take what money they have and launch on a vocational sea as strong and treacherous as can be, without the rudder of sufficient experience to make the voyage safe or the destination sure. There are several causes which have shaped this popular opinion of back-to-the-land movement, and I can safely say that it has become a fad to some people, the principal ones of which are 2- 1.-Men who are earnest and think of the welfare ofthe people and seek to relieve the sorrow and suffering of our congested cities. Q - p . 6 THE GLEANER 2.-The campaign of railroad and land corporations who seek to further their own interests by beautiful descriptions, artistic photographs and magnificent circulars. 3.-Ignorance and laziness, the desire to get something for nothing, to reap a rich harvest with the least expenditure of money and energy. Success depends upon which one of the three causes has induenced the selection-whether you have taken agriculture as a means of making a living or you have taken it as a new fancy or fad. We, the students or the National Farm School, have come under the first infiuence. The honest purpose, noble enthusiasm and cease- less efforts of our President, Dr. Krauskopf, the proper train.ing, and ability to impart that knowledge, of our teachers, and the able control of our Board of Directors have done a great deal to show us the true path, be it rough or even. They have shown us the picture in light and shadow, and to-day we stand here, proud champions of our school and vocation. E The two remaining reasons may lead to an existence-after a manner-yet the man ought not to claim credit for the little success which he may attain. Nature is generous, she rewards every little effortgand for this reason, a man who would become a total failure in the city, manages to exist-make a living on the farm. ls this success as we understand it? Most certainly not. Most people may not consider the farmer a social or intellectual equal. This I again attribute to ignorance and lack of information. A little study of the subject will enlighten and surprise our egotistical cousins. Is it necessary to say that the farmer holds the key to the World's storehouse? Yet this same farmer has been the subject of joke and humor, but how soon can this comedy be changed into an awful tragedy if he stopped work-went on a strike? In forty-eight hours our great cities would be on the verge of starvation. Eat, if you can, your magnifi- cent buildings, your granite skyscrapers. Scratch with bleeding, feeble fingers your girders of iron and steel. Race with the wind in automobile or aeroplane, but the hand of Death will clutch and kill you among the sham glories of your proud creations. Fellow-schoolmates, this institution in which we find ourselves, prepares more than farmers. She prepares men to become leaders in useful communities, leads them to victory in a world whose motto is the survival of the fittestf' At the dawn of another day we shall begin our various journeys to different parts of the world, some of us never to see each other again, but no matter where we are, our spirit will be with you. THE GLEANER 7 It is with a very heavy heart that We, the Class of 1913, leave you- you who have been our companions in joy and sorrow, victory or defeat. We leave in your hands the institutions and ideals which We have loved and supported. Work in harmony in the Athletic Association, uphold the GLEANER, which is your united voice, encourage the Literary Society, and carry forth the banner of our glorious Alma Mater proudly as We have done during our stay here. It is your moral duty to strengthen each one and leave it safe in the hands of classes which are to follow you. Do not betray your trust or shirk your duty. To our director, Dr. Washburn, and members of the Faculty, Who have strengthened us so that We may more ably fight in the battle of life, We beg that they forgive us for any trouble or anxiety which We may have given them. May God give them strength in the noblest of all pro- fessions-that of making better and more useful men and upright citizens! To the Board of Managers, friends and supporters of our school, matrons, and all who have given their time and support to make our school one of the best of her kind, We thank one and all for their interest in the institution and in us. I To our President, Dr. Krauskopf, We can say but one thing: his life We shall take as an example of perseverance, generosity, kindness, and all the qualities which make a man great and noble, that which makes life Worth the living. Then, schoolmates andqprofessors, Directors and Board of Managers, matrons ana friends and our beloved Pres? dent, the Class of 1913 bids you farewell-an affectionate and longing farewell. UP, classmates! Up! You all who will go forth under the Orange and Black, step fearlessly into a Waiting World! Forward! The World gives no quarter. Let us fight back to back, shoulder to shoulder, for the glory of our parents, friends, Alma Mater and the noblest country in the creation of God! Fare thee Well. Enines I'd stay with you but I cannot, Opportunity drums on the pane, The voice from the city is Calling, So I'm to the World again. The woods and fields and meadows, Your broad, free fields are a prison, They call and call all day, The earth is wide and free, But what's that call to the voice I The hand from the city still beckons, hear? So the asphalt street for me. So I'm for my svveetheart's way. -J. W., '13, Zllibe Gleaner HENRY BLUME, Editor-iii-Chief. A A JACOB BILLICK, Litercze.

This quotation, one of the many precepts contained in the Bible, should be Well heeded by all the prospective graduates, for it is the striving towards the enforcement of such a motto that will insure the attainment of success. Inasmuch as We are all imbued more or less with this one specific phase or line of work, agriculture, it would be for our own benefit as Well as tor society in general, to cling to that line. The business World will THE GLEANER 9 not tolerate the transient in so far as the responsible position is con- cerned. Furthermore, almost all businesses are carried on on such a large scale to-day, that the specialist is gradually substituting the all-round man. Hence the expediency or feasibility of keeping within the bounds of the agricultural Held, and also of adhering to that certain phase of farming of which you have made a specialty, by virtue of that quality which ex-presidentLRoosevelt has so appropriately termed stick-to-it-ism. The time is once more at hand when the National Farm School will again send out the fruit of its student body to uphold and perhaps strengthen its reputation. It has tried its best, in spite of the many adverse circumstances with which it has had to contend, topreparethe coming graduates to cope with the numerous problems with which they will inevitably be confronted. It has offered the student a stairway leading partly up the mountain of life, and those who are now reaching the head of the flight will find the ascent from then on, more difficult. At this point, they will encounter innumerable paths, and they will doubtlessly direct their courses in accordance with their respective ambitions. Let us hope that they be not enticed into those paths of ill- repute, and that their choice should lead them to the zenith of their aspirations. Truly, it is with sad hearts that we are compelled to allow the departure of our friends, from whom some of us have hitherto been inseparable. We will surely miss them at the table, classes, and frater- nal gatherings. But let this separation not cause the gradual wearing away of the friendly ties that bind us. On the contrary, do all in your power to make the ties become more astringent. Brace up and serve as models to the incoming element, not only in name but in spirit. As a few parting words to the graduates, we all hope that they have taken advantage of the efforts of all those connected with the institution, to equip them well for the struggle in which they are about to participate, and we wish them success in all their undertakings. The graduating class this March is the largest in the history of the Farm School. This is directly due to the recent innovation in the cur- riculum, one year having been dropped.

LITERARY SOCIETY With great pleasure do the members of the Literary Society look back on the last season's work. The officers especially have felt great satisfaction in finding that their endeavors have borne fruit. The Literary Society of the National Farm School was organized February 12, 1912. The first officers elected Were Mr. Fereshetian, President, L. W. Crohn, Vice President, and A. L. Kravet, Secretary and Treasurer. I. Sobol was appointed Chairman of Program Com- mittee, who was afterward appointed at the next election. Their administration was quite successful. During their term in office, four open meetings were held, among which were the Oratorical Contest and the Campers' Open Meeting. In the new election held October 18th, 1912, L. W. Crohn was chosen President, I. Sobol, Vice Presidentg and A. L. Kravet was re-elected Secretary and Treasurer. During this term a public debate was held between Mr. Crohn and Mr. Marcus on the Roosevelt Question, which was very interesting and entertaining. Mr. I. Sobol, as Chairman of the Program Committee, succeeded in bringing down a few prominent men to address us. On November 30th, Professor Wm. H. Bishop spoke on his Western trip, giving us a vivid description of the agricultural industries in the West, which we found both enjoyable and edifying. On December 14th, we had the honor of having Professor Scott Nearing, of the University of Pennsylvania, speak to us on the Sportsmanship of Life. We all enjoyed his address very much and found it also very impressive. Febru- ary 1st, 1913, brought us Mr. Robert D. Work, of Philadelphia, who addressed us on a religious topic which proved very interesting and instructive. The end of the year's work finds .is much more developed in public' speaking, besides gaining very much mentally and morally by the Various speakers during the regular and open meetings. The graduating members keenly feel the separation from the society, in which activities they have participated very much. However, they look forward to the new regime for progress in the work they have started. A. LEWIS KRAVET, Secretary.

Glass Zbistnrp, I 913 BY BERYL HARRISON, '13 . ri--r 9 . - - Though but few in number, we have a record of events, a history, covering a period of four years. There was a time when we numbered thirty-seven. Now we are but five, and two of us have skipped into the thirteen class. The Unseen Power probably thought it imprudent that the large number of thirty-seven should graduate, and overstock the field of scientific agriculturists, so only left us five., Yet few as we are, we have quite a few things to be proud of. To the 1913 class goes the enviable honor of being the last class to complete the four-year course, and by virtue of that we have a year's more training and have consumed 1095 more cartridges' each than the future graduates will be able to boast of. On March 10th, 1909, the gates of the National Farm School were thrown open to us, and to our President, VVeiss, goes the honor of being the first to set ,foot on this mental sanitarium. That day one blew in from the VVindy City, one Jerome Levy, better known as Smoke. He came on the B. 8c G., which he provediby showing us thirty-three coupons he had saved from thirty-three packs of Fatimas, smoked between Chicago and Farm School. Aifew beans from Boston and some nuts from New York also landed on that day. On the 15th of March we lost a Bostonite, as his father declared that tho' he sent his son to obtain a liberal education, he didn't want him to buy the place out, - - Realizing that under such treatment only the fittest would survive, and that some of us were not very fit, on the 22nd of March we organized the noble class of 1913. A Herman Erdy was elected president, Plotkin, vice president, and Lipschutz, secretary and treasurer: I A, - V f ' THE GLEANER Q51 23 As our treasury was swelling nearly to the bursting point, we de- cided to have a banquet, and keep it secret till it became past history. But it leaked out, and on the eve of April 22nd, only one-half of our class was able to successfully elude the Sophs.g the other half was sent in in time toclear the tables. Revenge is sweet, and on April first we took the first of a series of three baseball games with the Sophs., and a week later took the second one. The third was called off by the Sophs. 4 Then came Willie Witkin, a diminutive lad from Philadelphia, and Beryl Harrison, better known as Ty Cobb, from Des Moines. If George Washington could have heard his soul-inspiring tales of the land west of the Mississippi, even he would have been put to shame. In the June A. A. elections two of us found offices on the board, while six members of the varsity baseball were from our class. Two of us made the varsity football team, and did all the scoring for Farm School. VVe lost the football game to the Sophs.,owing to our extreme lightness. ' ' ' A - The varsity football team contained nine of us in the fall of 1910. But in vain did we strive to vanquish the Freshman class of 1914 in football, and wipe out our defeat of the year before. To the victor belongs the laurelsg we lost 2-0.0 But four of our best menwere on the hospital list from the varsity games. A The spring of 1911 found us Juniors, numbering only fifteen. On June lst, 1911, the GLEANER was founded, in which project we took great interest. We excelled in school activities, also such inactivities as the Never-Study Club. When the 1912 Graduation Day came around, we lost three men,who had skipped to the 1912 class, but gained three good ones, who skipped from the '14 class to us. They were Martin Fereshetian, better known as the Second Caruso, James VVork, Jimmy, and Ed. Schlesinger, Bunny.,' Fereshetian entered the school in july, 1910, and did good Work in all school activities. James Work arrived October lst, 1910. He was very active in all school matters, both literary and athletic, being probably the best all-around athlete since the days of Mitzman, in 1902. Schlesinger left in the middle of his Senior year. He was also very popular with all. So that left us Weiss,VVitkin, Harrison, Fereshetian and Work to graduate. Happily, the three-year course has added to our number. When 1913 rolled around it found us all studying hard, making up for lost time. Now we are anxiously awaiting our diplomas. So ends the record of the class of 1913, the most noble class Farm School ever sent forth to conquer. We have borne the sting of adversity, and withstood the mockery of discouragement. We offer praise and thanks to the Almighty that he has left us noble five to graduate. .
