Hear how the mystic spell of dire thirteen. About our class did cast a grewsome sheen ; How, spite of blows uncounted, we prevailed, That we might rally those who else had failed; That we, in sooth might warn posterity ' Gainst hoodoos, goblins, ghosts — unhallowed three.

It nothing hides but that thy mind may seek. Or holds that may not bend before th - will. But whether at the last thy course shall lead To glory-gilded heights of fame, or if In lower paths thou toil, remember this That thou alone can ' st wholly nobly live. If in the heat and dust of valiant climb, Thou hold within to guide, still pure, the great And quiet things of thy true self and God. 31 e HL ewEMM m L-.

List to the tale of their vvand ' rings, of how they with knocking were polished. Book 1. Scarcely their primal rag image, created, was hung out of Baldwin, When by a vigorous hand, ' twas carried away as a plaything; Scarcely, the first class feast, lasting too long, clos ' d in darkness. When a clear voice in the doorway called from the closet six couples. Kindled their spirits within them, and merrily march ' d they to battle; Triumphant returned from debate, as victor came home from the ball-game, A banner the spoils of the war; the climax a laugh on the ' Sophies ' , When from two husky black brethren sounded the yell of the ' Siphmores ' . Book II. When they the Autumn return ' d, appear ' d a new foe in their pathway. ' Hoodoo, revengeful and cruel, robbed them of many a classmate. Ready they stood for each blow, hurled b - the subtile offender; Ever stood ready to fight, to win for the crimson rose, honor. At last, in the Spring, the Thirteens came from a skirmish victorious. Gained they a banner from Pearsons; hung there at night b the Fourteens. Book III. With resolute purpose and nerve, still waged they their war on the Hoodoo, Yet ever the issue he dodg ' d, lurk ' d always near in the darkness; Blithely they work ' d and they play ' d, won high esteem in their classes. Living with might and main, each da - growing closer together. Book IV. Now with ranks thinner b) four, a last time the Hoodoo they challeng ' d Straightway two students he smote, demanded of each his appendix, Hounded the doom ' d Annual Board, smash ' d them well nigh into splinters, Claim ' d further one from the class. Then sounded the slogan of battle. Swift through the darkness they rush ' d, the Thirteens pursuing the Hoodoo ; Da. - after day the}- strove, most often deceiv ' d and eluded ; Till he at last was ensnared, slain by the side of the Dummy. Then to their tasks they return ' d, to jubilant planning and doing, On to Commencement victorious, unshadowed by curse of the Hoodoo. Never again did Thirteen stand for aught but the utmost good-fortune. 33 34 35 eniMiewEMM ° mn Motto: Reperiemus viam aut faciemus. ' Colors: Orange and Black.

Eclipse Almost total During Year 1913. A Result of Great Physical, Mental, and Moral Strength. The luminous Juniors obscure the other three bodies in all important phases of col- lege life. In the Athletic World they stand out in prominence. Every team except one boasts of a Junior, either as its Captain or Manager. Besides being leaders of the dif- ferent teams, three of their number are members of the Athletic Board of Control. But we have not finished when we tell of their athletic glory. In the literary world they shine. Two of the most important officers, the Editor-in-Chief and the Busi- ness manager, of the College Monthly are numbered among the Juniors. In the dif- ferent literary societies and in the Inter- Collegiate Triangle the Juniors are active workers. Among the religious organizations the Juniors are found at work. Five Juniors are members of the Y. M. C. A. Cabinet. The Class of 1914 challenges comparison with any class in any of these phases of college activity. THE JUNIOR BANNER. I.

Scarcely two centuries ago a skilfull dealer in pentameter couplets, a man of frail body and massive mind, set for himself the task of writing an Essay on Man. The two centuries since that time have taught us no new philosophy of man and we must brave the charge of presumptuous- ness a« we attempt a twentieth century Essay on Man. In order that the ladies may feel no slight we proffer the somewhat trite assurance that man always embraces woman, and so with tliis word of preface we proceed. Man is a mystery. We are confident in stating that fact because a mystery is some- thing rarely understood and so is man. The less also we know about most mysteries and most men the more we like them, and just as the solution to most mysteries is ridiculously simple so most men are simply ridiculous. Man may for the sake of inspection be divided into three parts, appetite, feet, and disposition. We are not basing our first di- vision on any such hackne -ed theory as that, The road to a man ' s heart is through his stomach? but rather on the fact that appetite is a grand motive force in man ' s life, which three times daily, day after day forces him to its bidding. The greater part of ' most men is feet. The strange thing about this is that a man ' s pride in these rather needful possessions varies inversely as their extent increases. The bashful man ' s feet are only exceeded in size by those of the man who finds his corns being trampled on in a crowd, but be this as it may the poet holds out consola- tion to the man with big feet when he tells us that our future glorv is to be measured by Footprints on the sands of time. A man ' s disposition is best known to his cat. Follow the smirking, bowing, society beau home from the ball and see his faith- ful cat seek the fastness of the cellar as his latch-key grates in the keyhole and you have a clear index into what he is. Man ' s disposition is what he disposes to be to his cat or to the world. One man has opportunity and slights it, another has tal- ent ;ind chides it. Another might help his neighbor but disposes rather to even scorn to recognize him on the street corner, but as truly as for life man disposes, just as truly the Divine Maker of man disposes for eternity. As we said a moment ago, man is a mj ' s- tery. Someone aptly says, Every cradle asks us whence, everv grave asks us whither. What man lives for. what the soul of man is, — what and why and whither — all are cjuestions to awe us into silence; all are questions to inspire us with won- der. Every day we see men succeed and every day we see them fail and although we ask why and wherefore, we can only surely know that through it all as — Through the ages one increasing purpose runs. And the thoughts of men are widened by the process of the suns, THE JUNIOR FLOWER.

Cupid seems to have been taking a va- cation for the last few days as only a few couples have appeared for license. Doc.

Hermosa, the princess of the land, the onl child of the king, had disappeared. One day at sunset she had walked alone from the palace, to enjoy the wintry evening, and had failed to return. There lived in the kingdom a young nobleman named Clarad, notorious because of his rashness and his unscrupulousness. He had long been an ardent, but un- favored suitor for the hand of the princess. Now he could not be found, and it was generally believed that he was in some way connected with her disappearance. The most diligent search had failed to throw any light whatever upon the mystery. Four days passed by. The king and queen were sad but hopeful. The king himself entered into the search ; and on this morning, with a small band of followers, was riding on horseback near the seacoast. He was surprised when he came to a place where the shore dipped gently into the water and the sea ebbed upon the sands, to see there two strange looking young men. Their torn and water soaked clothes, and the large piece of driftwood that lay near the ocean ' s edge, at once re ' ealed the fact that they had been cast ashore by the waves. One of these strangers was large in stature but unpleasant in appearance. His face was unattractive ; his e es too restless; his forehead too low, and his chin too weak. The other, though not so large, held his head high, and looked at those about him with frank and fearless eyes. King Lino gazed in wonderment at them and finalh spoke : Strangers, whence come 30U? How came you to our shores? Can you speak our language? If so, speak and tell us who you are. Finding that he could in the main understand the speech of the king, and seeing that his companion showed no sign of taking the initiative, the smaller of the two strangers answered. His face was pale and his voice weak from the hardships he had endured. ... ... We have been shipwrecked and have drifted to your shore, he said. We covaz from America, from Maryville College. My companion here is Percy Long — Fresh- man: I r m Fred Brooke — Sophomore. It so happened that during the Christmas 47  eniM ewEMM ° mm ° vacation, we took a short sea voyage on the same steamer. A storm ar ose; the ship was blown far out of her course and finally wrecked on a rocky headland. We two found ourselves together upon a floating timber, which was driven by the winds for many hours, until at last the storm ceased, the sky cleared and we were safely landed here. We have had a narrow escape. We almost died of the cold. What land are e in now? At this story the natives were greatly astonished. The king answered : ' ou are now in the kingdom of Gangana. You speak to king Lino, who seeks for hii daughter that is lost. Though I know not the land from which you say 5-ou come, yet all strangers are welcome at our court. Come with me. Until now Brooke had noticed nothing unusual about the natives except their speech, which sounded like a crude imitation of his own. Now he saw that the were dressed to correspond to his impression of Mediaeval costumes. On the way to the city, Brooke questioned the King in a most courtly way. From the answers to his queries he concluded that he was in a land which had been settled by a band of shipwrecked Englishmen in about the Sixteenth Century. The country being in- accessible because of the jumble of islands about it, no one from the outside world had chanced upon it. Here was undisturbed Mediaeval life in the Twentieth Century. At last the Americans arrived at the palace. The news spread like wildfire, and for a time the lost princess seemed almost forgotten in this new excitement. The strangers were given apartments in the quaint old castle, and after securing some needed food and sleep, felt as much at home as was possible under the circumstances. Percy persistently stared at the strange surroundings with open mouth and bulg- ing eyes, in a most Freshman-like way. By his clumsy simple manner he caused much amusement among the Mediaeval people. However, his Sophomore companion at once became a general favorite, and by his frankness, intelligence and good nature, won the friendship of all w ith whom he came in contact. After two davs, having heard the king and others talk of the strange disappear- ance of the princess, Brooke asked for permission to join in the search. He advanced the theory that Clarad now held Hermosa in some hiding place in the city. Although few agreed with him, yet he was given five soldiers and a guide, with permission to look how and where he pleased. Fred asked Percy to join him in his search. But the Freshman, evidently pre- 48 e EL ewEMM iwm 2) ferring a safe and Cdmfortable castle to a danj erous and strenuous searcii, declined, and so remained behind. All day Brooke and his companions worked without results. About sundown, as the streets were j;rowinf; dark, Fred and his L;uide came into a narrow street walled in by great, silent hjoking houses. The Ganganian said that these were the property of honorable citizens, and that it was unnecessary to search them. As the two men came near one large house, a sound like a human cry came to them. They stopped and, rinding the door of the house nearest them, unlocked, entered. The interior bespoke total abandonment. From all appearances, the place might have been unvisited for years. There was no sign of human life about it. As the - were pre- paring to leave, Fred opened an old cupboard, and at once noticed a current of air coming through the cracks in the bottom. He made an examination and found to his surprise that a door opened, and a stair led downward. He unsheathed the sword with which he had been provided and groped his way down through the dark, followed by his companion. After a short descent they came to a passage way which led to another flight of stairs. These descended to a second passage, in which at a distance could be seen daylight. They hastened toward it and found that it came from a cave, occupied at present by two women and a man. When they came near enough to distinguish the faces of those inside the ca e, the Ganganian guide ex- claimed, The Princess Hermosa! Clarad ! At the sound of his voice, those within started quickly to their feet, and saw the men approaching. An account of what followed need not be given. Clarad and his companion were captured and duh punished, while Hermosa, almost exhausted from continued fright and dispair was restored to her parents. The woman who was found with her proved to be Clarad ' s mother, and through Hermosa ' s influence was given her free- dom. The news of the finding of the princess was gi en out into every part of the kingdom, and all Gangana rejoiced with their king and queen. Fred Brooke of the Class of Fifteen found himself a hero, with the fa ors of the court showered upon him. By no means least among these was the friendship of the beautiful and lovelv Hermosa. Alany were the hours they spent together, he telling of his America and Maryville; she telling of her native land and people. And then the court precedent was shattered, and Fred Brooke — Sophomore, became Prince Fred, the son-in-law of the king. 49 ° ensL ewEMM ° mm ° Oh I will temptation never cease to assail verdant innocent youth ?

In his ostracism he was lonely, in his ignorance and longing he was sad. Through closed windows he was forced to view from without the wedding feast. At last in answer to repeated entreaties, after binding promises of faithful fidelity and service. Prince Fred, in his great generosity, took as a personal body servant, poor Freshman Percy ; who now serves him and his princess, begrudgingly, but faithfully, and with a proper Freshman submission. 50 51 eniiL ewEMM ' mn Motto : Ba Colors: Gold and White. .

When the year began its course, we proudly heard Dr. Wilson say, ' ou are the largest Freshman Class in the history of the College. And when we gathered for our first class meeting it was evident that we were great in numbers. Soon the com- pleted roll showed eighty members hailing from twenty-one states. , In class spirit and in loyalty we acknowledge no equals. Early in the collegiate year we began having feasts of plent},-, chasing the Soph ' s, displaying banners, painting walls, and borrowing pennants for decorative purposes. Occasionally moon- shining has been a part of our program and has contributed to our fun. Again, in scholarship and in the various other activities of college life we have made an excellent showing. Members of the class have taken an active part in the literary societies, and the work done there is developing good material for literary contests and public speaking in the future. In athletics the class has gained renown. But, through there was good material for a strong class football team, disapointment resulted from the fact that the Soph ' s refused to play. The Freshmen furnished four of the eleven members of the College track team, and these won half the total points in the Maryville-Tusculum Track Meet. Four of the Varsity basketball squad are Freshmen. Clearly the Freshman Class ranks above any other on the Hill in track work and in basketball, and the prospects for a good baseball team are promising. May the Class of Nineteen-sixteen in work and play continue throughout its college course with the same success that marks its initial year. 58 59  ennL ewEMM mn jfourti) igear preparatory Motto: On the top.

The poet concluded, as men still conclude every day, that: — After all old things are best, and he who dwells in storied castle or amid a mist of old fantastic legends, breaths with disdain the dust of modern commotion, and senses with scorn the hurr -scurry bustle of the crowded street. The good old days are gone; the good new days of opportunity and possibility are here, but we are proud nevertheless that in a school like ours, safely grounded in the truthful traditions of other days, yet alive to the pulse beat of the living present, we can share the fellowship of the old Athenian Literary Society. Old? Yes— old in years— boasting the span from sixty-eight to thirteen, old in accomplishment and tradition but young in spirit, in aim and in energy. It is a poor condition when an institution may not be fairly judged by its products— the Athenian society is willing to stand the test. The Senior men, who all but one this year are Athenians, have been faithful earnest workers in the society. The spirit they showed there in duties small and more important, if taken with them out into their ways of effort will surely bring them deserved success. The past year has been a good one from an Athenian standpoint. In the Annual Contest in the Spring JXIr. L. L. Cross was awarded the beautiful medal the Society offered for the best oration. The Athenian debaters Messers Grabiel and Alexan- der and the orator Mr. Hunter, all scored points for Maryville in the Inter- collegiate Contest last April. These are features of the work not to be despised. They offer merely a few proofs that in the Athenian society the standard of excellence is high and that the aim of the society is toward yet higher things. 74 A. S. MAXDOLIX CLUB A. S.

Edmund Burke saw the power of youth in the American Colonies and warned England that they would one day surpass their masters. In eighteen hundred and eighty-two, John Grant Newman, a leader among men, founded the Alpha Sigma Literar_ ' Society. Thirty years have passed since Dr. Newman presided at the first meeting. Since then he has gained a wide reputation, and at the present time he is pastor of one of the most prominent churches in our country. Our history, though short, is marked frequently- by men who stand in the front ranks of the nation. The flame of youth is in our hands and with it we are forging and moulding men to stand the wear and tear of the world. As in the past Alpha Sigma have distinguished themsehes by superior work, so we are still upholding the standard placed in our hands by those who have left our halls. The annual contest between the Junior Sections of the two literary societies resulted in the Alpha Sigma winning two out of a possible three points. At the Midwinter Entertainment, the Mandolin and Guitar Club made a very favorable appearance and it is hoped that this is but the beginning of a large and well organized club. In the intercollegiate debating teams, the Alpha Sigma members have brought home ictory time and again. The fire of youth is ours and no power can snatch it away. It has tempered and hardened the weakest and most pliable, and has burned out the flaws and defects of the more fully developed. Who is there that dares to deny us the heritage and blessing of jouth ? And this is the kev to success. 77 o 78 eniiL ewEMM n w Ct)e I tclaimins of etep I am old and fat. Therefore I can afford to be freer with my tongue than ..hen I was young and handsome, and I am going to tell this story as I please, and as it happened, I used to tell my husband that I liked men better, and hated them worse, than any other of God ' s creatures. This is a story of a man whom I liked. l ' can remember very well indeed when Petey was a brat in knickers, carrying Hermione, a two-vear-old ' with a shock of golden curls, on his back wherever he went. His mother died when Hermione was born, and poor young Will Abernath} didn ' t survive her long— died of typhoid that summer. Petey can ' t remember the time when he hasn ' t dropped in on me of a summer evening and sat on my veranda and crunched my maccaroons, while talking of many things. Poor motherless boy! I did the best I knew for him. But he had no chance from the very first. Old Seth Abernathy, their uncle and only relative, who took the children when their parents died, was about as well fitted for the care of a boy as a rhinoceros. I think he got reconciled to Hermione — she was pretty and docile. But Petey was just a wayward, noisy, loveable boy, and old Seth, I verily believe, hated him till the day he died. Petey went off to the university when he was nineteen and got in with a fast set. In his Senior year he got into a scrape and had to come home, and from that time he played fast and loose. But everybody loved Petey Abernathy. And in all those wild vears, Petey never failed me and my veranda and my macaroons. He has never done a naughty thing that he hasn ' t told his Aunt Dumdum as he calls me. He has done bad things, but I would stake my life that he has never done a dis- honorable thing. In the summer that Petey was twenty-nine and Hermione twenty-two, early in the morning of the seventeenth of June (you will see later why I remember the date), old Seth Abernathy died. And, as soon as he was safe under ground the will was read. That will and its consequences were the talk of the town for many a long day. After a ling list of minor legacies old Seth bequeathed his lands and his mil- lions to my beloved grand-nephew, Peter Abernathy, and my beloved grand-niece. Hermione Abernathy, to have and to hold in joint ownership, and to their heirs forever. But the old fo.x was not through with them yet. In a codicil added just three days before he died he made this condition : if within one month after the decease, Petey would take an oath never to gamble in any form or drink any intox- icating liquirs, and to personally assume the management of the estate, and lead a sober and respectable life, he and Hermione should inherit in good shape. But if he refused to take the pledge, or in the judgment of certain trustees, broke it in any particular after he made it, the whole fortune was to go for building an Orphanage. On the evening after the will was read, Petey, Hermione, and I sat on m} ' veranda and held a council of war. How could Petey — wild, dare de il Pete - — settle down into a respectable, sober, and altogether tiresome bachelor, all in one month? It was too bad of him, by Jove I Petey burst out at last, He knew I wouldn ' t care so much about myself — I am a man and could live somehow, but Hermione ' s having to suffer for what is my fault is too much. If I were half a man I ' d settle down and behave, or burst ! 79 eniiL ewEMM ° n Tut, tut, hoy! said I, ' ou mit;ht hurst, but when you are old and bald would be time enough to talk about settling down. ou have a couple of thousand apiece of .your own. And if 50ur cousin Jane, ever sees fit to die you will probably have five. Not much I admit, but you could live on it. Now to my mind the thing to do is to go in as if old Seth ' s millions didn ' t exist. See here, children, there is no use in your taking up that great house. You could come and live with your old Aunt Dumdum. I am lonesome and am getting old. ■ ' ou ' re a brick, Aunt, said Hermione, and if you were our real Aunt we ' d do it like a shot, but we can ' t sponge, you know. Hoighty toightyl said I, and who said anything about sponging. Miss? So long as you are both single I don ' t see — I never finished that sentence, for Hermione leaped to her feet and began screaming, I have it, I have it! The very thing! Jumping Jupiter, what have you got! gasped Petey a fit? Why )ust this, don ' t you see? So long as Petey is not married, of course he isn ' t going to settle down to business. Then let Petey get married. Hermione said these words impressively, and looked around to see how we took it. Petey looked at me desperately. Is there any insanity in our famil ? he demanded. But after I had regained my breath I saw that there was something in what the child said. I am a thrifty old thing, and for all my talk, I felt that it would be a shame to let two million dollars slip through one ' s fingers. A good marriage would be a good thing, for Petey and there were plenty of girls in Maywood who would snap at him and his millions. To make a long story short, Hermione and I bullied Petey into submission, and that very evening we had him write letters of proposal to three nice girls who had known Pete ' from babyhood, and who were all poor. Petey was to send them one after another until he was accepted. But we had reckoned without our host. Those three young fooh lost no time in turning Pety down flat-footed. And the days passed, and lengthened into weeks, and ten da s before the end of the month we were no nearer the solution of the problem than we were at first. It was about this time that the miracle happened, and it was in this wise. A young girl called Jean McDonald came to visit her aunt, an old friend of mine. Jean was seventeen years old, a child of the slender, big-eyed type. One afternoon the newcomer and her aunt wr paying me a call, and Petey dropped in as they were leaving. I introduced the two young people, and as they clasped hands I saw, stupid old thing though I am, that they both thrilled with the same shock. Petey watched her slim child ' s figure out of sight, and then turned to me with a strange look in his dark eyes. Aunt Dumdum, said Petey, I am going to marry that girl. The next few days were bad ones for Hermione, and would have been for Petey if he had not been absorbed in his new happiness. He had tsken little Jean McDonald by storm — the handsome rascal — and was with her every minute. But the fifteenth of July came and went, and the sixteenth followed it, and on that evening I was sitting on my veranda rocking back and forth and trying to tell myself that I was not sorry old Seth ' s millions were gone, when Petey hurried up the path. He walked straight up to me and looked me in the eyes, and began speaking in a hoarse voice. Aunt Dumdum, the mone ' s gone, and it doesn ' t matter, except for Hermione. But I am all right, forever and ever. I have found out what human lo e and faitii 80 e EL eWEMM lii: and trust is made of, and I have got sonic tliin to tie m_ old diiftin} , tove-up boat to. I am going to marry Jean McDonald as soon as she is read ' , and until that time I am going to li e so as to deserve her. Petey was choking, but for once he did not care. Aunt Dumdum. he went on, the words tumbling out of him faster than ever, this evening I told her that it was true what people were saying — that I wanted to get married — and asked her if she trusted me enough to marry me anyhow. You see I didn ' t tell her that the month was up. She said yes, she would marry me to-night. Then I told her that it was too late, that I was a beggar, and. Aunt, she didn ' t turn a hair; she just said, ' Would two million dollars make us any richer, if we have each other? ' And with that I left, and I just came to tell you. Aunt Dumdum, that your boy is going to be a man at last. I put my old fat arms around his neck and held him close. And in that mo- ment I blessed the girl who had done for Petey Abernathy what old Seth and hi-, two million dollars could not do. Just then Samanthy came up from the house — wanted at the ' phone, Miss Daw ' thy. It was Hermione on the wire — a somewhat weary Hermione. Is Petey up there, Aunty? she asked, Oh! well that ' s all. I just wanted to know where he was. Oh say — I don ' t suppose that this will interest you — it ' s all over anyway, but I was talking to Dr. Comstock a while ago — you know he was with Uncle when — he died, and he was telling me that he had made a mistake in his report of Uncle ' s death. His watch was slow, or he was sleepy, or something, and Uncle died at one ten in the morning of the seventeenth, instead of twelve ten of the sixteenth. So 3-ou see that gives an extra day in the month. Here Hermione gave a mirthless laugh, I reckon if Petey were to make his promise before mid-night — I didn ' t wait for anymore. I just shouted, Wait a minute! and slammed up the receiver. On my way to the veranda ( Petey likes to tell about it yet. ) I cut a pigeon wing. We hurried down to the Abernathy place, and on the way I explained to Petey. The young beast didn ' t seem much impressed, he was too much in loxe I reckon. And when we got there and explained to H ermione, she put her arms around Petey and cried for the first time since she was six. I verily believe even she was thinking not so much of the money as of Peter ' s reformation . Well, that ' s all there was to it. We three went over to Tom Brown ' s, the executive, and Petey made his promise in the nick of time, and won the money for hmiself, his sister, and his sweetheart. And then those two young fools blubbered until I was ill. Two years afterward Petey and Jean were married, and now another Petey, with gray eyes instead of black, sits on my veranda and munches my macca- roons. I will be fair. Before I close I will say that when Petey made his promise I cried too. I am an old fool.

Der Dutzer Du Verein, Jah Gewisz ! At tiie first sight of this mouth filling title, the reader no doubt, is puzzled to know what it signifies and what sort of an organization can wear such a name and still endure. Onl}- to one who has imbibed something of the true Teutonic spirit, can the portent of these German words be fully evident. Teutonic spirit? ' esl for this is the German Club. Der Deutsche Verein might have served for a name, but ever since they learned the tender significance of the second singular personal pronoun, the boys and the girls of the College German classes have sought occasion to use that form of the address. Now among Germans, you know, to say du w-hen you should say S is a social crime, so to escape being criminals, the aforesaid students thought it best to provide an opportunity by which the - might, in propriety, use the more friendly form of address. In attest of which, behold the name Der Dutzer Du Verein. But though this name may seem barbarous to the uninitiated, Das reine ziel des Vereins, toward which all activities are directed is to promote proficiency in the use of Du Mutter Sprache. On Thursday night, Jan. 30th, 1913, the first meeting was held in Pearsons parlors, and to this place for its own sake doubtless, as w-ell as for the great enthusiasm in the German department, there came a goodly number of ambitious students and an organization was perfected. The work of the club is of a social and literary character, the bi-weekly programs being carried out and the business being transacted as far as possible in German. All members are manifesting their loyalty, both by their regular attendance, and b - their eagerness to participate in the programs when an opportunity ' s offers. Though the Dutzer Du is only an infant in the evergrowing familv of Mary- ville College clubs, nevertheless it is a very healthy child, and shows promise of a great career, 87 - PEPRESENTAT1VES I NTERCOLLEGIATE e.R.HttTir«. •88 e EL ewEMM  Htm p i -t p, ' i C«-i 1 ,, ( « V o I i!

Listen then, and know that from the bottom of your heart _vou do believe, if ou have but the courage to confess it. es, and so do I and so does every other living man. For to believe in ghosts is an inborn instinct of the human mind. Of course, when in broad daylight, you are studying science or psycholog} ' you say you don ' t. Then it would be beneath your dignity. Then such things are merely hallucinations of the mind, or childish imaginings of the uncultured masses. And there our professor sits back and expatiates most learnedly of the absurdity of such phenomena. But what has a ghost to do with the class-room ? Come down to real life : and if you doubt my word, tell me why it is that ou don ' t exactly like to wander alone on some dark night through an old deserted house, in which a murder was committed, even though you say you know there is nothing in it to hurt you, or explain why I can make ou jump two feet by suddenl flaring something white before our face. eniiL ewEMM- ° ¥. Or if that does not convince you, take your scholarly professor, who probably in all his life never went to bed in the dark, and try a little experiment on him. Gently lead him on some cloudy, gloomy night to a nice secluded graveyard, and tie him to a tombstone. There leave him till one or two o ' clock, to put him in a proper state of mind ; and when you think that reached, treat him to a well selected repertoire of groans and shrieks and sheeted broomsticks; and if by the early morning light that man has not had a genuine experience with all its thrills — why he ' s a ghost himself. He certainly is not made of human flesh and blood. And what would act on him would surely work on any other man. Therefore, I say that every man from the Hottentot with his fetish, to the astronomer seeing men on Mars, if you but treat hmi right, believes in ghosts. ' - ' But consider what this world would be if there were no such belief. To be sure sculpture and painting would not be greatly affected, since the very etherial nature of the subject renders a portrayal somewhat difficult. And in music, ghostly song has not advanced much higher than a shriek. But in literature, literature that is the crowning glory — What is Shakespeare without Hamlet? What is Hamlet without his Ghost? And did you ever hear of Hector ' s Ghost in Homer, of Mil- ton ' s friends, or Goethe ' s Mephistopheles? All high imagination rests on such be- lief. And then in history,— had not Alcibiades a ghost, and Julius Ceasar, and Cromwell, and Napoleon; though biased historians try to cover up the fact? But leaving the great and grand, take up your own very commonplace life. Suppose, that when a boy, as you passed that haunted corner, you really didn ' t have to thrust your fists in your pockets, and whistle with all your might, to keep your nerve; or you were not momentarily expecting to see something big and black jump out upon you? Suppose that on Hallowe ' en you didn ' t believe those jack-o-lanterns were more than common pumpkins, or the fearful stories told around the ghostly fire had at least some truth in them. Why, life wouldn ' t be worth living; What more delightfully awful joy can be imagined than if at night, as with your companion you go by the cemetery, you can hear a creak or groan, or think you catch a glimpse of something white, and as you shudderingly draw up closer you can whisper, with a little laugh to show you are not afraid, — I — I — I — guess that ' s a ghost! And now perhaps some learned man may say, This is very well, but you have go ennL ewEMM ° lie absolutely failed to prove that such thiiij_ ' s a ghosts actually exist. Sir, I (ief - you to show me where I have said that there really are f hcjsts. Whether there are or not is completely beside the question, and makes absoluteh no difference. What I have affirmed, and this 1 will maintain uith all my power, is that all men believe there are. This being so what more is necessar . , • But if this is true; then by Pragmatism, which all modern men believe, there must be ghosts. Yes, and since psychology teaches that every instinct of the mind is caused by past necessity, science itself proves that our ancestors met them in the past. I will go a step farther. There is a mighty scientific problem yet unsolved, which may be answered by this theory. I refer to the missing link. There must be a missing link. But no evidence of it has been discovered. What more simple or rea,sonable than to believe that the missing link was a ghost. Then of course he left no remains. Thus at one stroke, all further search is made unnecessary and a great principle of science is established. But in conclusion, since there are always men who doubt what they do not see, I give this selection from the journal of my life. It is concerning my experience in a certain village in France, whose name I would willingly give, were it not that I fear lest certain of its citizens be angry. And on the veracity of everv word of this I will stake my honor. It lacked but a few minutes of eleven when I left the door of my dreary little inn to seek the aults of the ancient church. I remember, because hardly had I started on my lonely road, before I heard far ahead the old clock beating out the hour. Across the mar,shes came its dull and dismal tone, harsh and most uncanny. It was not a night in which any one would care to be abroad. A heavv storm was gathering in the west. AH was black, save for the occasional flicker of lightning across the clouds. All was silent, except for the fitful rushing of the wind, and the infrequent rumbling of the thunder. The path itself was rough and very narrow. At length I made my way to the church, blacker than the darkness around it. As I entered, the wind ceased, an awful deathlike stillness followed, and all nature seemed waiting — in suspense. Within, by the feeble light of my lamp, I slowly ventured through the empty vastness. How my feet resounded on the flags of stone, soft as I could make my tread ; and how they broke the fearful silence. All at once. 91 eniiL ewEMiM ° n it seemed to me that I could not be alone, that something quiet, catlike, was follow- ing me. 1 felt awful stony eyes looking on me in the darkness. Quickly turning, I flashed the light behind. It revealed — nothing. Then I remembered that a ter- rible murder had been done nearby and that the bones of the dead man lay in the vaults below. Involuntarily I shuddered. Continuing my way, I reached the door leading to those dreary cells. A cold damp wind blew up as I descended the long stairs and started down an aisle. All was mouldering and dank. Water continually dripped from the walls. This was the only sound, and, though above the storm was raging, here I was dead to the outside world. 1 was fearfully alone, and i,et — . Suddenly I tripped on the uneven floor and fell. My lamp flying from my fingers, was extinguished. My hand touched something cold and smooth. It was a human skull. Crawling on my knees, I felt around it a pile of bones. Then as I knelt there came an awful tolling, low but with a haunting hollowness that echoed and re-echoed through the vaults. One, two, three,—. ' Twas midnight. Hardly had it finished ere I heard a shriek; a cry of indescribable horror, coming from the inmost recesses of the cells. It seeaied the rending wail of a lost soul, — Oh-h-h, it came. And Oh-h-h, again. Then it seemed approaching. I crouched in terror among the bones, my hands clenched before my eyes. Nearer — nearer — nearer. A horrible power seemed bearing me down. I could endure it no longer. I sprang back. My eye; of themselves flew open, and I saw, — I saw — Oh! Oh Oh — I will tell no more, But dare ou deny that I beheld a ghost? 92 93 94 efflL ewEMM mm Q 1. iH. C. !!. The ' ounii .Men ' s Christian Association is supposed to stand for all that is elevating and ennobling. At Maryville it does stand for such principles. The work is an incentive to nobler aspirations, higher ideals, and cleaner lives. And toda) ' the crying need of our land is for clean men, men who stand out unafraid to show their colors, men who are honest with themselves, with their fellow-men and, above ail, with their God. As we look back over the work of past years and note the great good which has been accomplished by the Association, it affords no little joy to those most closely connected with the affairs of the Y. M. C. A. here, to see that in Nineteen Hundred and Twelve the Association maintained the usual high standard of excellence. In the various departments, the work is being carried on with zeal and efficiency. The Bible Study and Mission Study branches are helping many to a better knowledge of facts and conditions, both present and past. Such help is, or should be, one of the aims of every Christian institution. A change of far-reaching effect was made during the past year concerning the financial requirements for membership ; so that pecuniary reasons need now deter no voung man from affiliating himself with the Y. M. C. A. of Maryville College. And the Young Men ' s Chirstian Association is one of the most prominetnt organizations in the world today, for the upbuilding and uplifting of the } ' oimg men, not only of our own country, but of every nation under the sun. It is a great, invincible power that is wielding a mighty power for the cause of righteousness. Two things, especially worthy of note, which enter largely into Association work among the students are: first, the Blue Ridge Conference, which convenes _at Black Mountain, North Carolina sometime in June, of every year, for a session of ten days ; and, secondly, the Student Bible Conferences which are being organized and carried on by the State Student Secretaries. The Blue Ridge Conference is com- posed of delegates from all over the South, and addresses are made by prominent men of Y. M. C. A. fame, as well as b - others who are interested in the work. Classes treating of various phases of Association activity are conducted by able leaders and valuable information and help are obtained by those in attendance. The Bible Conferences are, of course, much smaller, and treat more directly and informally of local conditions existing in Associations represented at the Conferences. These conferences meet once a year in different parts of the State at separate times. - And so the work goes on, bringing responsibilities and problems still greater than those which have already been met and solved. Alertness and steadfastness are absolutel)- essential to success in the oung Men ' s Christian Assiciation. 95 96 Y. V. C. A.

Mother has written to Maryville College in re- gard to my going there this year, and today I receive a letter from one of the Y. W. C. A. girls of that institution, welcoming me to their college. August 30, 1912. — I have received two more letters of welcome from the . W. C. A. girls of Maryville. I ' m so glad I decided to go there for they seem to take such an interest in one. Sept. 10, 191 2. — I left home last night at eight o ' clock and every revolution of the car wheels seemed to increase my homesickness so that when I changed cars at Knoxville this afternoon, I felt very desolate indeed. When I stepped off the train at Maryville and found myself in a circle of jolly girls, all wearing the Y. W. C. A. badge, and all reaching for my suitcase and inquiring if I were going to the College, you can imagine I was gladly surprised. From there the girls conducted me to College Hill and the dormitory where I was shown my room. Sept. ii, 1912. — The Y. W. C. A. girls are ever on the look-out for the well- being of the new girls. I have been aided by one of them through all the diificulties of matriculation. Sept. 14, 1912. — I have just returned from the Y. W. C. A. reception to the new girls. After listening to an interesting program, and a cordial invitation from the President of the Y. W. C. A. to attend the Sunday afternoon meetings of the Association, we all engaged in some simple games, which served as a means of getting the new girls acquainted with each other. Sept. 15, 1912. — I attended the Y. W. C. A devotional meeting this afternoon. I enjoyed the meeting so much and have already decided to attend the meetings regularly, and to become a member of the Association. Oct. II, 1912. — Oh! I had such a good time this evening! The Y. W. C. A. social committee gave a Camp-fire demonstration, followed by a marshmallow toast. Then I enjoyed watching the Campfire girls dance around the fire, and how prettily they sang! After their demonstration, we sat around the fires and toasted our marshmallows. Jan. 10, 1913. — Am back at work again after enjoying the short Christmas holidays. The first thing I notice is how busy the Y. W. C. A. girls are. This evening they gave a House warming to the new girls. Prof. Bassett gave us ar; interesting talk on six young ladies of his acquaintance. Then we all assembled in Bainonian Hall where we gathered in small groups around the little tables arranged there, and where light refreshments were served. Jan. 14, 1913. — I have joined one of the Y. W. Am awfully busy with my other studies, but couldn ' t the class on China. April 15, 1913. — How quicklj- the time goes! school is out. I have enjoyed my year here at Maryville so much, and have made so many nice young friends. The best and truest of them have been the Y. W. C. A. girls. 98 C.

In harmony with the object of the foundation of the College as stated by Dr. Isaac Anderson, the first president of the institution, this series of meetings, usualy extending over twelve days, has as its object the glory of God and the advancement of that Kingdom purchased by the blood of his only begotten Son, through the conversion of the students to Christ, and through the quickening of the spiritual life and the training in personal work of those who are already Christians. As stated by President Wilson, its object is to secure the character, the usefulness, and the eternal welfare of the students. Rev. Joseph McClellan Broady, pastor of the Fifth Avenue Presbyterian Church of Birmingham, Alabama, was the leader of these meetings this year. Since Mr. Broady is a laryville boy by both birth and education, and was himself converted in the February meetings of 1894., and was an earnest worker on subsequent meetings, he was from the first in complete sympathy with the students, and the traditional meth- ods of work in the meetings. iVIr. Broad - won all hears by his manly, whole-hearted, and true-hearted presentation of the gospel. He appealed to the highest motives and summoned to the most courageous service. The students and teachers worked with splendid enthusiasm and devotion, and God added a mighty blessing. Ninety-eight students professed faith in Christ, while more than that number reconsecrated them- selves to his service. For the second time in the hstory of the College all the students of the college department are professing Christians and so are all but fourteen of the students of all departments. For this marvelous victory there is great thanksgiving. 102 Ct)e IBa?

As it grew beneath his hand. And this house was rich by the side of the road This house that was built by a man ; But his slaves rebelled ' neath the cruel goad, And he had no friend as he bore his load ; And his house lay bare by the side of the road. The house of a friendless man. A cot there lay by the side of the way, A cot that was built by a man. Who toiled in the sun and blessed the day; Whose smile was warm as a noonday ray As it grew beneath his hand. And this cot was poor by the side of the way. This cot that was built by a man ; But his heart grew gay tho ' his hair grew gray. For he sensed the joy of each passing day. And we feel it true as we hear men say, ' Tis the house of the friend of man. Not the house we build but the way we build Will the building finalh ' stand: Not the care we bear but the joy we share Will earn us the blessing hand. So build we then, that we may be men, In our cots by the side of the way. That the world will smile and pause awhile, To get more cheer for the day. Edwix R. Huxter, ' 14. 103 efflL eWEMM ° n Every nation has its legends, every land its myths and stories which reach back to the forgotten periods before history begins. Like the gleams before a sun- rise, they touch the shadowy twilight of pre-historic days, and as its tints have an etherial glory so in their simple lines are often hidden precepts of eternal truth, uch a legend is the ancient Celtic story of the Gleam. In a far-off land there lived a youth who one day on a mountain-top beheld a light of glorious beauty, while all around there echoed voices bidding him to follow it. And he obeyed, but as he went the light kept on ahead beyond his reach Over dark mountains, across dreary deserts yet ever forward moved that gleam. 1 hrough trouble and danger but ever onward it led. Yet in pursuing it, each day the youth grew stronger and more brave, until at last it led him from this earth up to that Perfect Land, and entering there he gave to all the cry,— Follow the Gleam! This is the legend, old and plain; but it contains a principle that underlies the progress of the nation and the world. Among the many examples of American genius and activity there is none more obvious or ' apparent than its industrial achievement. The material development of this nation during the last few decades has been marvelous. All the boundless energy that carried our forefathers through the trackless forest and the untried wilderness, and enabled them to conquer nature and to wrest from her their homes; all the in- domitable courage that gave them the victory in their fight for liberty ; all the states- manship and power by which they organized this government are being joined and turned today toward commercial advancement and progress. And the result has been unprecedented. From an undeveloped land of a century ago, noted only for its untouched natural resources, the nation has grown and enlarged until today she stands unrivaled in her mighty business enterprises, and American system and Ameri- can power have become synonymous with the highest type of industrial success. By it has come a wealth almost unlimited and a prosperity which is unsurpassed. Yet with all its achievement, this greatness and the results that follow it are one of the nation ' s gravest problems. For the same skill and genius that has made the mighty corporation is striving to control the reins of government. And the same strength and power that has overcome the barriers of nature is crushing out the life of the common working man. And therefore with it come the questions of capital and labor, and their attendant evils which result in that class hatred that blazes out in anarch}-; questions and issues unthought of a hundred years ago but which now thrust themselves forward and threaten the very life of the state. But what is true in the industrial world is equally true in the other phases of the country ' s life. When our fathers gained their freedom they resolved to found a nation where liberty and equal rights should be granted every man. And nobly did they suceed in their attempt, ' et this same liberty and freedom has brought its dangers. The corrupt political machine in politics, the laxer moral standards in society are but a few of the many problems, undreamed of by its founders, which today the nation has to face. To meet these dangers and to solve these problems, statesmen have given their deepest thought, laws have been enacted, decisions rendered by the highest courts, plans and theories brought forward without number. Yea, men have said that unless they are met and settled, the nation must go down in ruin. 104 ' ■ enHL eWEMM ' liflS ° But today they are unanswered. The decisions of a court have not solved the question of the trusts, nor have the great reforms brought perfection into govern- ment As the present is a time of great achievement it is also a period of mighty stress. These problems are unsolved and they are unsolvable, but in that very fact lies the hope and future of the state. For America is following the Gleam. As the youth each dav toiled onward and as he overcame each hindrance, ever saw the ' light ahead, so in its upward march the nation, as it meets each ques- tion sees still greater ones bevond. For, in the state as in the man, while there is life ' and progress there must be struggle. The questions of industry, of politics, and of society are unsolved and have been so since the world began, but the phases that we face ' todav are not those which our predecessors faced, but only those made possible bv their struggles and our present progress. In every noble heart God has emplanted the longing for the perfect, and toiling with this aim in view all the great- ness of the world has been attained. But on this earth there is no true perfection but in the striving, for perfection is the beginning of decay. Far toward the west there lies a mighty nation, a nation ancient and a nation great but a land that for two thousand years has lain in darkness. Why has China ' s fame ' declined? Why has her glory vanished? Because she had no civilization. She had one and a wondrous one before our own ancestors knew the name. It is because her civilization meant stagnation; because she recognized no greater glory than her past; because she knew no higher heaven than her own Celestial Empire. For China was the land without the Gleam. And why is our own civilization the highest yet attained? Not because it is faultless; not because it is perfect. But because it stands for progress. Because behind it is a race that knows no glory which may not be rivaled, that recognizes no prosperity- which cannot be surpassed; a race endowed with a resistless energ - that ever onward strives, that never knows defeat, that counts no cost too great, no difficulty too gigantic to be faced ; a people with the Gleam. Along the pathway of the nations as each followed that Gleam it prospered though its road was hard. Greece saw that light, and it led her to heights of art and beauty yet unrivaled, but when she left it then she fell. As Rome pursued it she grew mistress of the world. But when she forsook her path, what more awful picture in all history than the darkness which like a night eternal settled over all the earth. And under it men groped and wandered for a starless age. But then again they saw the Gleam, and followed out of darkness into light. And since that time the nations of the earth, through struggle, strife and danger, have pressed upward and onward to greater and still greater heights of civilization and advacement. What then is the greatest menance to our land today? Not that she cannot solve her problems, but that she may cease to try to solve them ; that she may leave the Gleam and say her present greatness is sufHcient. For the glor - of America is not her mere prosperity; is not her wealth and power. It is the manhood of her sons. This is her greatest asset and on this her future rests. But as the youth must climb his rugged way to gain his strength, so only by its questions and its problems, great and terrible as they may be, can the nation ' s manhood be maintained. Far down the future I see our land. America! Not with every question settled ; not in ease and luxury. But as a i,outh, strong, alert and brave, climbing a rough and rugged path. The way is steep yet still he presses up. For ever on before, his guide and joy, there moves a light, unattained and unattainable. And ever in his ear there rings the cry, the watchowrd of the progress of mankind, — Follow the Gleam I 105 eniL ewEMM ° im 106 I07 e EL ewEMM imi ATHLETIC COACHES 35oarti of athletic Control This Board, composed of students, faculty, and town representatives, has con- trol of all branches of athletics.

Although a large squad reported, there were only three veterans including Captain Badgett. Thi? meant a double task: first, since many of the men were green, to teach them the rudiments of the game; second, to develop a team around the nucleus formed by last year ' s men to start the schedule with. In our first few games we could scarcely hope to win against such colleges as Vanderbilt and Kentucky State. Always showing a fighting spirit, and working together the men soon developed a winning combination which elicited praise wherever they played, and although not always victorious the team was characterized by that fighting spirit common to all Maryville teams.

Maryville College tennis in the past has been more inter-class than inter-collegi- ate; more individual pastime than College Athletics; more an exercise than a sport. The future of tennis however is much more encouraging. The tennis placers of the Hill equal in number the football, baseball, basket- ball, or track squads, so the ball and racket game deserves a real place in College Athletics. The Athletic Association realizes this, and besides furnishing necessary equipment, now offers the College Monogram to the team representing the College against other colleges. The Faculty last year built two new courts for the girls, and has lately appointed a committee to look into the present needs. With these encouragements, the season of 19 1 3 should be one of the best in our tennis history-. The management hopes to have this season a tournament of inter-class games, a series of boys ' and girls ' singles and doubles, and one game perhaps with some other school. Before many seasons we should see a girls and boys ' team on the road, a L . T.- Maryville game, and an M. C. team striving for the State Championship. 121 eniL ewEMM ° mn Cross Country 1911-1912 Last year a number of students began cross-country training early in the foot- ball season, and the Athletic Board of Control, seeing the interest shown in this form of athletics, took up the matter and g ave a four-mile race. In this over twenty men entered, the winners of which won prizes given by the town merchants, and in which the class of 191 6 won the highest number of points. The faculty gave the Cross Country Cup, and the Board offered M ' s to the five men winning the highest number of points in each annual series of races. The one winning grst place was to have his name engraved on the cup. The cup has space for many names and will last many seasons. The first three races were four miles long and the last was a hare and hound race of about six miles. After the last race, the points were added up and, J. W. Card took first place with 400 points. The next highest were in order as follows: John Parker, Charles S. Bennett, V. C. Detty and J. E. Ensign. ■ 122 123 124 125 eniiL ewEMM ° m 9[nti=: ppentiix Clut) Some people are born to appendicitis, — as well as to measles, whooping cough, chicken-pox, scarlet fever, sprained ankle, broken arm, dipththeria, t phoid fever, pneumonia and tooth-ache. You know such individuals and so do we. And some persons have appendicitis thrust upon them. We are they. But to assert that any- body should deliberately acquire appendicitis is a libel upon human intelligence. All these gibes about appendicitis being a fashionable cult, are rot ; all these jokes about having your appendix removed, while you wait are rot. We used to be that kind of scoffers ourselves. No person who has a grain of sense will yearn to have an unoffending appendix removed, just for the experience; and no sane person who has had the appendix re- moved will bid for the operation to be repeated. Fortunately, it can ' t be. A bene- ficent Creator has given man only one appendix. Man does not need even that ; but there are many surgeons, so let him strive to be generous, though he find it hard to do: to have to pay for something he never has used and doesn ' t want and doesn ' t need. A $500 appendix, only two or three inches long and entirely obsolete and worthless, is such a frightful extravagance. 126 e EL ewEMM im. WIk-ii you fiet it (nicaninti a p;iin in tiic south- vc-st quarter of abdominal region No. 4), ou expend much enerefiy and time in convincing j-ourself and the doctor that you are suffering from a plain case of colic caused by toast and scrambled eggs. When finally the doctor informs you that it must be cut out, you are scared almost to death. After much thinking it over, and many assurances from those who claim to know, by experience and otherwise, that it is nothing worse than having a tooth pulled, you persuade yourself that there is nothing to it. You are hauled away to the hospital, and then it is too late to back out, and anyway, you don ' t have anything to say about it. It is unnecessary to describe the process of being drugged and cut upon. Suffice it to say that if you are looking for something different, you will get it there. When you come with a swoop out of the pit into which you were plunged by the anaesthetist, and a faint light hursts upon your mind, you make speedy in e5ti- gations to determine whether you are in this world or the next. Satisfied upon this point, you thank your lucky s tars that you are still here, and decide that there wasn ' t so much to it after all. If appendicitis stopped right here, it would be true, and the scoffers would be right. No, there ' s not so much to jumping off the Brooklyn bridge until you ' re in the water. A surgeon proft ' ered a statement of $1,000 to a patient and the patient kicked, demanding an itemized account. This promptly came: For operating $ i-OO For knowing how 999.00 So in appendicitis the account should read. Operation — nothing to it. Getting over it — wow 1 1 ! The lightest phase of waking up is about as exhilarating as the morning after the celebration of New ' ear ' s resolutions. You reek of ether at every pore — tasting ether with a tongue which feels like a freshly painted shingle. At last your mind becomes fairly clear ; but it is simply from the frying pan to the fire. Anybody who insists that Nature is going to sit calmly by, knitting, while an alien force rips through a layer of hide and three or four layers of muscles, and invades a sanctum sanctorum maintained under a strict Monroe Doctrine through ten, twenty, twenty-five vears, is irrevocably mistaken. Today the interior of man is no longer sacred and far better known than that of Thibet. But Nature continues to protest. To cough is hari-kari ; to sneeze is perforation by a red-hot poker ; to respond to nausea is longitudinal suspension between opposing wild horses. Try to sleep, implores the nurse. ' ou try, but just as you close your eyes and begin to float away, down below there, inside, ' ome imp darts from covert and 127 ° eniiL ewEMM mm - gives the wound a violent twitch. I wonder what that ' s for, — he pipes, never saw that before. Every time you drift off, that indefatigable scalawag slyly jangles the door bell. You can ' t turn over upon your right side, for you have about six inches of dressing there, and that is driven against the wound like a football. You can ' t turn upon your left side because that hurts the right side. Moreover neither position eases the ache, and you are forbidden to turn anyway. So there you are ! This does not last forever. Some day you find,— (tentatively) , that you can blow your nose without tying your solar plexus in a hard knot; and soon thereafter you are emboldened into letting go of that sneeze which you have been holding in leash for days. Yes, life is becoming sweet once more. And some day, some day, pale, wobbly, a cured scoffer, out you may go, full of cautions and thankfulness, and with a preserved appendix, which you will long prize as a relic from the time of your entering upon life anew. .

THE MATRON. Lesson II. See the pretty lady, Lizzie, look Helen. She is writing some letters on the black board. Now she is coming down the hall. She is speaking to us. She says, Do you not know what day this is? Little girls must not be so noisy. They must be good like the Seniors. They do not speak loudly. Oh, no. They are good little girls. Is she not a funny lady, Ella? A FEAST. Lesson III. Now children what do you see? The happy girls are having a feast in the attic. They are about to cook some eggs. Eggs smell loudly when they are cooking. That is why they came to the attic. Oh! what has happened? It is all dark! How they scream as they run down the stairs ! The matron opens the door.

There is no task more delightful to the student than that of expressing toward his teachers his true admiration of their characters, and appreciation of their ser- vices. We at last have reached the honored position where we may. Therefore the writer would sav that he cannot think of Dean Waller, under whose mstruction and care he spent the most precious period of his life, without deep emotion and thrills of enthusiasm. And that he speaks not merely for himself, but as representa- tive of the whole class, when he says that we count it the chief blessing of our lives that we received our Chemistry under Professor McClenahan. We doubt if there are any other two instructors who could have given us more knowledge, per- spiration, or ' lower grades. And though this is high praise it is none too high; and the period at which it is expressed removes even the suspicion of flattery, since we have safely past our last day beneath their power. Then there is that heroic man with the great head and gallant heart. Those who sit at his feet are not only instructed in Latin but are deeply impressed by his striking resemblance to a French chef. This is said not to do him honor but in simple justice. . • u j We take especial pride in saying that the stature of our Registrar is broad and tolerant. He is at once conservative and liberal, and ever seeks with long and eager strides to keep pace with the current age. How may we do justice to Dr. L yon, whose method of instruction is the expo- sition and not the imposition of opinion, the worthy fruit of which is to awaken in us the power of thought. But as we learned to welcome light from every quarter, we also learned to listen to his voice and to obey. The noblest thing about our Dr. Barnes is not his intelligence and cleverness, but the powerful influence of his singleness of mind. To hear his voice in chapel service or to follow out his digressions in the lecture room is an education to the heart. But what shall we say of the joy and sweetness of Professor Proffitt, the en- thusiasm and inspiration of Professor Brittain, the sedateness and etherial slimness of Professor Seel, the solemnity and simplicity of Professor Walker, and the pro- fundity and reverence of Dr. Bond. — Words fail us, — but as we leave these halls we pray that our beloved professors may long continue to deal justice to the wayward and prod the slow along the pleasant path of knowledge.

Hypothesis: If one straight (?) professor intercepts another straight (?) Professor with a paper bag, contents unknown, and their alternate interior impulses are to appropriate the bag, the resulting dihedral will be the theft of presidential lemon drops. Let C H G and F L P be two straight (?) Professors in- tercepting at d r, and let s-ivi-p be dihedral resulting from interception. To prove: s-ivi-p = S T W — kxdy. Proof: C H G intercepts F L P at o r, (By hypothesis) But the nose of F L P coincides with b g , contents unknown. Ax. 4. Now suppose b g transposed and placed over nose of C. H. G. Then the olfactory diagonals are equal, and C. H. G. winketh at F L P. (Noses with but a single whiff, Two eyes that wink as one. ) The alternate interior impulses, ; ; ; and g r y form the dihedral s-ivi-p. (By construction.)

Isaac Anderson, D.D., that under the direct control of the Synod of Tennessee has rendered ninety-four years of service to the cause of Christian education. Thousands of its former students are scattered over the world. Many of them are engaged in Christian work. WHAT IT HAS. 1. A teaching and administrative force of 55 professors, instructors, and officers; a student body of 649 young men and young women, 173 of whom come from thirty-seven tSates and countries other than Tennessee. 2, A campus of 235 acres beautiful for situation. Thirteen buildings, pro- vided with steam heat and electric light from a central power plant. 3. A location in the beautiful plateau of healthful East Tennessee, in the geographical center of the cis-Mississippian Southland: easih ' accessible through Knoxville to all sections of the country; exceptionally attractive to students that wish to escape the rigors of a Northern winter or the enervation of a lowland climate. WHAT IT STANDS FOR.— 1. Scholarly Culture. The standa.-ds for all de- partmentsare the highest. In the College Department nine groups lead to the degree of B.A. The degree of M.A. in course is granted for post-graduate work. The Prepat-atory curriculum comprises a thorough sixteen units ' course. The Teachers ' Department offers a six-year ' normal course of the highest grade. The Bible Training Department furnishes three years oi training in the English Bible and methods of Christian work. The Music, Expression, and Art Depart- ments give private instruction in their several branches. The use of the Lamar Library of 15,000 volumes is free. A Domestic Science Department will be established at the opening of the coming college year. 2. Social and Physical Culture. The social welfare of all the students is sacredly safeguarded. Ample facilities for physical recreation and development are provided under the supervision oi Physical Directors. Bartlett Hall, one of the largest student Y. M. C. A. buildings in the South, contains two large gym- nasiums. On the campus are tennis courts, running tracks, and fields for football, baseball, and other outdoor sports. Great interest is taken in athletics. 3. Spiritual Culture. The first concern of the management of the college is the spiritual needs of the student body. The English Bible is a required study for graduation from all courses. The Y. M. C. A. and Y. W. C. A. are among the most efficient Christian forces of the College. WHAT IT DOES. The College provides exceptional advantages at a mini- mum of cost to the student. The endowment of the institution enables the directors to maintain rates that are almost incredibly low. Tuition is only $6 a term, or $18 a year;the incidental fee is $1 a term; dormitory rooms, steam heated and electric lighted, occupied by two students, who divide the expense, rent for $6 to $30, according to term and location of room. All the dormitories are supplied with water on every floor and with bathrooms. The Cooperative Club furnishes wholesome board at cost. During the past year the board was $1.75 a week. Text-books are rented. The total expense for nine months for all the aforementioned items averages $106. Tuition for Music, Art, or Ex ' res- sion averages fifty cents a lesson. Worthy students find abundant opportunities for self-help. Write for Catalogue li ' Rev. CLINTON HANCOCK GILLINGHAM, Registrar Maryville, Tennessee ,i6o Copyright, iQii. A. B.
