Ftrc David J. Evans D A ID J. E A ' S. our beloved Class Professor, was bom on a farm near Oak Hill, Jack--. hi County, Ohio, August 22, 1846. lie lived on this farm until the- fall of 1864, when he was employed to teach school. I], mi that time until tins, he ha- been a teacher or a student. In March. 1866, he matriculated at the Ohio University and remained four term-, when he was employed to teach in Sciotoville, Scioto County. In 1868 lie returned to the University, where he remained four more terms. In the winter of ' 69-70 he taught school a short distance south of Athens, and in the spring of ' 0 he again resumed his studies in the University, graduating in 181 1. His first work after graduation was that of school superintendent; a year at Xelsonville and a year at West Jefferson. ( hio. In ' i:l he began his career as a college instructor in the I ' . C. College at Meron. Indiana. In lssi ' i he was elected principal of the Putnam Ladies ' Seminary. Zanesville. Ohio. Two years later he was elected Professor of Latin in the t Ihio University, a position which he -till fill- with honor. Professor Evans ' inclination to a student ' s life was prompted by three things: his home where scholars were admired; a Welsh Sunday school where men of splendid character and culture taught the scriptures ; the influence of his teacher-, one of whom was formerly a student in an English University. In 1872 Professor Evans married Miss Lydia Margaret Lash, of Athens. To this happy union three son- and a daughter were born. The eldest son died in hi- twentieth year, a successful chemist in Deadwood, S. Dak. The second graduated in 1901 and is a chemist in Denver, Colo. The youngest son gradu- ated in 1908, from Ohio University and i- now a graduate student and instructor in Physics in Harvard University. The daughter married Mr. Arthur Howe Carpenter, a widely known metallurgist of the West. He is vitally interested in all good movements, civic, educational, humane, and Christian. He i- a refined Christian gentleman of the finest type and a favorite with all. ,Si.r Greeting To him who hss known or ever shall know the great rnd lasting place to which our University, our Alma Mater is entitled by reason of her great and ever in- creasing usefulness; to him who recognizes true worth of work accomplished and of ends subserved by institu- tions such as ours; to him, who, treading through her college halls in years now gone, has learned to love her best of all. and last to him who yet shall know the joy, the pleasures of her better days, do we, the Class of Nineteen Hundred Eleven present this volume, a record of a year, like to a page torn from a tome scarce begun, and in annals, Athena Volume VI.

D., was unanimously elected | J to the presidency of the Ohio University on July is, 1901. As an executive be has few equals. The administration of affairs at the hi i L ' niversity is of the quiet-and-efficient order.

While in school he was known as a splendid Latin and Greek scholar, a ready debater and an excellent speaker. Soon after graduation he was married to Miss Katherine Ann Cox. of Westchester, Butler County, Ohio. Mrs. Ellis is a loveh woman, kind to everyone and especially interested in the students, who are always welcome in Iter delightful home.

Tkirty-oiu Scenes near Ohio University in the Good Old Winter Time Thii III two !l College Buildings HIST( )RICAL. Central Building derives it- name from its location at the center of the Campus and is noted today because of the fact that it is the oldest building west of the Alleghenies now standing, erected exclusively for college purposes. It was built in INK, just ten years after the building of The Academy, ' ' the first structure of hio University. At the present time the Departments of Chemistry and Biology are located in this building, but are to be removed to the new Science Hall upon its ci impletion. East Wing and West Wing are located at either side of Central Build- ing and are twin type-, of an earlier plan of college architecture which empha- sized extreme simplicity in detail. The former was completed in 1831 and the latter two years later. For a long time occupied as dormitories for boys, they were remodeled in 1907, the East Wing being occupied by the Department of Civil Engineering while the West Wing affords practice rooms for the College of Music and rooms for college organizations. Each still affords a few rooms for boys. Ewing Hall. one of the most handsome structures of the University, named in honor of Thomas Ewing, of the Class of 1N15. was built in 1897. The completion of this building marks the beginning of that Greater Ohio Univer- sity, the building of which has gone forward almost continuous!) since then. In this building are located the administration offices, the Auditorium, offices and recitation room- for several departments of the College of Liberal Arts. At present the Machine shops and the Engine rooms of the Department of Elec- trical Engineering are located here. Ellis Hall. the largest building on the campus, was begun in 1902 and completed in 1908. This is the first and largest building ever constructed by the State of Ohio to be devoted exclusively to normal college purposes. It is named in honor of Dr. Alston Ellis under whose administration it was built. Here most departments of the Normal College as well as the Training School are located. Carnegie Library. erected in 1904, is among the most substantial struc- tures of the University. It. together with the departmental libraries, is ample at present to accommodate the school. The basement affords commodious assembly rooms for the Y. M. C. A. Thirty fiv Carnegie Library Boyd Hall . Ewing Hall Music Hall Ellis Hall Gymnasium Women ' s Hall Boyd Hall, built in 1907, is tbc new ladies ' dormitory. It is named in honor of Miss Margaret Boyd, of the Class of 18T3, the first lady graduate of ( Ihio University. The building of this hall was in direct response to accommo- date the greatly increasing enrollment of women in the University within the past few years. Women ' s Hall, remodeled in 1909, was lir t built in 1805. This dormitory affords an ideal home for almost a hundred women and is among the best ap- pointed buildings of its kind in the State. The Gymnasium was completed in 1908. While not the most elaborate it is ample for the present needs of the University. Equipment when completely installed will place it among the best of our buildings for the purpose for which it is designed. Science Hall, in process of construction, is the latest addition to Ohio University. This elaborate building will stand one block west from the campus an 1 will become the home of the Departments of Physics, Chemistry, and Biology, each occupying a floor of the structure, The Electric Light and Heating Plant, located near the Baltimore and I Ihio Railroad depot, already heats all the University buildings and is soon to be equipped in order to completely light all the buildings and the campus. Here also will be the engine rooms and the dynamo rooms of the Department i if Elec- trical Engineering.

S ' i cty-ont History of the Class of J91J A DIARY is nothing but a trouble maker. but the idea of keeping a diarj tempted the Class of 191] and, not having as yet gone through with the four years of character training, it succumbed to the temptation, ember 10, L907: — At college! But how different than I expected. rything is in a haze, ami I feel very confused. It isn ' t a! all nice to have everybod) els greeted U a l t of people, while 1 am just stared at and pointed m .1- Hi. 1 hi of 1911, mi- the Freshie 1 lass. January in. 1908: — Well, the first term is past successfully, ami I don ' t feel as green a- 1910 thinks I look. I presume she is still sore from being a Freshman last year. I have become acquainted with a lot of nice people, ami like ( 1. I ' . very much. I think I have been as successful, so far, as any other Class, it not a little more so. My beginning has been a ver g 1 one, and you kn..w. ' Well begun i- half done. ' May I. 1908: — I am still getting along tine. My career at ( 1. U. is going to be an excellent one. I had my picture taken the other day on Ewing Hall steps. It is a tine looking picture and makes me proud of myself. I do hate to boast, hut I can ' t help seeing what a model Class I am. I have set a pattern for all the coming Classes, and next fall I expect to be back on the old Campus, having 1 like the leaves) exchanged my verdant green for the more sombre tint of the Sophomore. November 27, 1908: — Back again at O. U., but not with that feeling of confusion, for now I am greeted by, and greet a host of friends. Leave that old feeling to the Class of 1912 or, in other words. Freshmen, for I have gone up one step and am now a full-fledged Sophomore. I surely do enjoy that distinction and feel more at home. You can see the green Freshie Class strut- ting around as if it owned the place. I don ' t believe I did that last vear. But, I took some of the conceit out of it the other day when I defeated it in the Freshman-Sophomore football game. March 1, 1909: — Another set of exams passed safely and Christmas come and gone. Now I am trying to do better than ever. I had my picture taken the other day. It was surely an elegant picture. I really think the other Classes would he jealous of me. However, the Class of 1912 defeated me i n basket ball on the seventeenth of February. It made me very angry, for I think it was only an accident. I am now the popular (. ' lass of college. Every one would like to be a member. I had to eject several of the Class of 1912 who tried to claim relatii inship to me. June 9. 1909: — This term has been nothing but trouble to me. I have done nothing but pay bills carried over from the other two terms, and even had to make an assessment to get everything paid up. Then. I could not decide whether I should dance or have a banquet, with the result that I did neither. Finally, m president decided to skip the Junior year and graduate a year ahead of me. and he resigned, But I have weathered the storm safel) and am in g 1 condition for a successful Junior yen . December 6, 1909: — The first meeting of my Junior year was held in the I ld Chapel, and officers and (lass professor were elected. About the lirst social feature suggested was an informal party in order thai the ( lass might Sia ' made the memorable remark. No doubt a sleigh ride would bring the Class closer together. March T. 1910: — I am getting along famously, and my members have become very enthusiastic scholars, ranking high in social, athletic and all college affairs. I feel that I have done something this term. I gave a beautiful banner bearing my numerals to the college for its trophy room, and had the best look- ing basket ball team on the floor, even if it did win only a game. My Prom was voted the most successful ever, and 1912 will certainly have to work to beat it. June S, 1910: — This term has passed so rapidly, and 1 can hardly think that next year will bring my college career to a close. As the time pa -e- I become more powerful in college circles. This year I have two photos in the Annual, one as a group photo and the other taken of small groups about the Campus. I entertained the Class of 1910 at Prof. Evans ' , our i lass professor ' s home, and think every one had an enjoyable time. On June 7th I elected my Athena board, and I think it is one of the most capable that has ever had charge of the publishing of the Athena. Mr. Long represented me on Class Day in responding to the Seniors on the presentation of the key-, leading to Seniordom. I am now ready to begin my last and best year. December 1. ' . 1910. — My past three years in college have seemed so short. It really is hard to believe that the Class of 1011 is now so near to passing out from College circles. About the second week of this term, Dr. Ellis entertained me at his home. I had a lively time and was given some good advice by Dr. Ellis, Deans Chubb and Williams, and our own worthy Class Professor, by which advice I think I have profited much. ( hi Oct. 3rd, I decided to have meetings of my members every two weeks and to have a committee of three to have charge of each meeting. This plan has been unusually successful, having had talks on Psalms, Epicurus, Elbert Hubbard, and even on the vinegar bug. At one meeting Mrs. Evans read to us her paper entitled. Fifty Years Within Sound of the O. U. Bell. This was very interesting, and we considered our- selves fortunate to get to hear it. My members wrangled for quite a while over a class emblem, dismissing a couple of committees and. finally, deciding that the caps and gowns could distinguish us as Seniors. An original idea of mine was to have tassels to represent the different degrees that my members are to receive. On the 12th of December my members voted to build a fountain as a Class memorial to be placed on the campus. So you see I am not only working to benefit myself, but the entire college world. May you all think of the Class of 1911 when you drink from this spring. Februarv G, 1911 : — Dailv I am approaching my goal, and I know that I will be the largest as well as the most representative Class that has ever gone out. I surely can ' t be called slow or lazy. Work was begun on the Athena earlv in January and when yon see it you will consider it the best yet published. And now you have uiv history from the first time I stepped on the campus as a Freshman up through the ranks of Sophomore, Junior. Senior, and now 1 am about ready to step out on the stage of a larger life. Not, however, without sadness, and yet with a feeling that the thing to which I have aspired for four years is accomplished. But in the accomplishment of one aspiration I have only awakened others and we always have a goal toward which to strive, for Whoever with an earnest soul. Strives for some end from this low world afar. Still upward travels, tho ' he miss the goal. And strays hut toward a star. Sixty-thrt e v ■ ty-foui • Junior History SB Fl R number , for physical and mental prowess and all-round efficiency the class of 1912 is, in the words of Stevenson, the best vet. We have stood as a unit and for the welfare of the majority. There are social stars among us who have taught the ascetic, and those of too studious zeal, that the great study of mankind is man. Right merrily we are marching — sixty strong — to the beckoning of Hip- polyte and the silvery voice of Minerva. The rainbow world of Chemistry has dawned upon us. The majority have threaded their way through the intricate maze of ( allege Algebra. We have strengthened the mental fibre in a strenuous battle with Laboratory Physics. We have stood reverent at the door of science ; the siren songs of literature have held their sway, and now we claim our fitness and royal prerogative to the crowning vision of the senior year. Afterward this band of brain and brawn will sallv triumphantly forth from the classic halls of old O. U. for the con- quering of other worlds and the upholding of the standards and ideals of the class of 191-?. Sixty-8i I ii m;i i 3 E. Si wi.r.v. Benedict, 0. U. [ ., Scientific.

U. Can we not say that that, our first, was a most enjoyable as well ;h profitable year? Although many were the experiences pre- sented to us as Freshmen, we feel as though we have passed through them nobly and have made for our Class a reputation not at all unenviable. We shall never forget the events that accomplished all this and in the future we shall regard our Freshman year as the one that was merely a preparation for the mure glorious career of the Sophomore. It i as Sophomores that we have more keenly realized the many advantages and responsibilities of college life. Since we are better adapted to our surroundings, we are in a better position to become more influential in the college world. Before many weeks of the Fall term of 1910 had passed our first Sopho- more meeting was held for the purpose of effecting a Class organization. For the position of President. Mr. Harold Nutting was chosen and for Class Professor, Dr. P. A. Claassen. As Freshmen we had taken our position in the social world and now as Sophomores we have aimed not only to live up to our previous reputation, but even to exalt it. Our social activities opened with one of our famous dances and it is needless to say that it was a wonderful success. The social event which closed the Fall term of College was a most enjoyable affair given by Dr. Claassen in honor of the Class. Although our success in athletics has not been so remarkable, we can justly say that our apparent failure is not due to our inability, as our Freshman record shows. We now feel that although our life is rich with past experiences, it will be still richer when our Sophomore year is completed. ■ r - Kfcr .s- vetii tf-st ven awer To him who in the love of Nature holds Communion with her visible forms, she speaks A various language. - S( i- ni 1 nine Freshmen History HOW we looked forward to the autumn of Nineteen Hundred and Ten. when we were to enter college for the first time! So bright were our dreams of college life and all the pleasures it would bring that little did it affect us when we were dubbed ' ' Freshmen in the full signifi- cance of its verdancy. Soon, however, did our Class convince even the dignified Senior that the name Freshmen was to have an entirely different signification. No longer were we the shy, hesitating students but by our social activitv. interest in scholarship and athletics, did we set examples worthy to be emulated by any class. In athletics we proved our physical superiority by our victories over the Sophomores in football and over the Seniors m basket ball. A careful organization of the Class was effected early in the year by electing .Mr. Hoodlet to the office of President, choosing Professor Hiram R. Wilson as Class Professor and the election of the necessary minor officers essential to the organization. For class colors, wine and gray were adopted. Numerous are the plans under consideration to give us an opportunity to become acquainted with each other and to give prominence to our social life. Having succeeded so wonderfully in our first year, we, the largest Freshman class in the history of Ohio University, are justified in saying with Tennyson: For, I looked into the future Far as human eye could see, Saw the visions of the world And all the wonders that would be!

Ohio Netta Duga Bcllaire, Ohio Ei ' iht ii-si veil Historical Sketch of the State Normal College The State Normal College, for such is it- legal name, was established bv the ' ' In.. General Assembly March 12, 1902. The State of Ohio had never bet. .re made any provision for a school for the training of teachers and thi-- action on the part of the State Legislature seemed a little tardy. The long ma be accounted for by the fact that Ohio has so many colleges, the State having 5-1 educational institutions chartered to grant college degrees. This i- more than all Xew England states combined, and more than England, Wale-. Scotland, and Ireland combined. Many of these i Ihio Colleges claimed to be training teacher- for the public schools, and naturally did not want to see the State engage in this work. There was a timt when the regular college course was looked upon as a suitable means of preparation for teaching. And so long as that idea prevailed in Ohio, there seemed to be no demand ' for special schools for teachers nor differentiated courses for training of public school teachers. But with the growth of pro- fessional schools for teachers in other states, came an increasing demand for special schools in Ohio, which was the last state in this country to establish state normal schi k .1-. In 1900 the real battle was fought and almost won. The school men endorsed a plan to establish a series of five state normal schools in Ohio and brought the measure before the General Assembly but it was defeated in the House by only two votes. Three men favorable to the bill were absent when the vote was taken. This bill bore the name of t ha-. F. Seese of Summit County. The feature that defeated the bill was the phrase a -cries of five. some mem- ber- feeling that the State would never need five normal school-, and others claiming that the State could not afford to paj the cost. The writer of this sketch was a member of the Legislative Committee that had the proposed measure in charge and opposed the original plan to ask for live normal schools, claiming it was not necessary to pledge the State to any definite number of schools. When the legislature re-assembled in January. l!)n- . Mr. Seese introduced a bill to establish two state normal schools in connection with two institutions alread) supported in part by the State — The Ohio University at Athens, and the Miami University at Oxford. These schools had been established in 1804 and 181G respectively, but were in 1902 quite small, the total yearly enrollment of the former being about I ' 1 and that of the latter about 300. The members of the General Assembly reasoned that the State already had the buildings and grounds and the equipment in part, and it would be economy at least to utilize these. The Seese Bill became a law March 12, 1902 and carried with it a tax lev) . ' ii the maul duplicate of the State- of . ' tl ' j of a mill for the two schools to be divided in proportion, r-12 t.. the State Normal at Athens, and 5-12 to the State ..rmal at Oxford. In 190G tin- lew ua- changed to l ' _, hundredths of a mill for our school and 1 mill for the other, thus reducing the supporl given our school. i first Ohio gavi about $40,000 annually for maintenance but -in.. I n has been about $34,000. Had the original levy remained our income from this source would have been about $45,000 during the past five No provision was in the original law for the erection oi any buildings, the supposition I icing that the University had ample room to accommodate the faculty and students of the State Normal College. The law said that the school should be opened to students not later than September, 1903 as no part of the original levy would be available before February. 1903. But the school was opened in September, 1902 with a special Normal College faculty composed of Dean Williams, Prof. Treudley, Prof. E. M. Mills, Dr. F. P. Bachman, Dr. ( (scar Chrisman, Miss Emma Waite, and two critic teachers for the training school — Miss Emma Cowden, now of Akron, t ).. and Miss Stella Hobson, now Airs. Ray Lash, of Athens. The classes were crowded into rooms already occupied by other classes and no Profess,,]- of the Normal College had a class room or an office except the principal of the Training School, whose office was a laboratory anil supply room in the basement of Ewing Hall. The Training School consisted of the First three grades in two rooms. There was no Depart- ment of Public School Drawing, nor Public School Music, nor Kindergarten, nor School Cardening and Agriculture. These have all been added gradually. and so have all the remaining grades of the Training School. The school opened with 3-1 students, with one student a candidate lor a diploma from the two-year courst — Miss Mary McLaughlin of Caldwell. Ohio, who had already had one year of training in another school. She was the first graduate, and the only member of the class of 1903, although she did not receive her diploma until 1904, as the Normal College had not yet prepared any special form for its diplomas. The total enrollment of students in the Normal College the first year was In-. ' . The t ollege had a preparatory course of three years for those not graduates of first grade high schools, the work being done chiefly in the preparatory classes of the University. The preparatory course was abolished in 1909, as all students who require preparatory work ma ,1,, it in the University Preparatory School. Although no provision was made for buildings the Board of Trustees began in 1903, the erection of the main or central part of the Normal Building, now Fllis Hall, out of the fund from the regular levy and other funds on hand, and later asked the legislature for appropriations to complete the building. This was granted ami the building was finally completed in 1908 at a cost of $113,11110 including equipment. The University Law of 1906 made provision for future building appropria- tions and since then $65,000 has been appropriated for the Gymnasium in the name of the State Normal College, and $75,000 for the Science Hall now in process ,,f construction. Although the prospects for buildings and equipment seem reasonably good, the levy for maintenance is insufficient and the State must make additions to this sum by special appropriations from time to time. I ' he attendance has grown from lie. 1 in 1903, to 1058 different students in 1910, and I ' M:] different students for the year ending March 1911. The graduating class has grown in size from one in 1903, to :! i in 1910, six of whom graduated from the four-year courses and one received a Master ' s degree. The (lass ,,f 191] consists ,,f 16 who will receive the degree of I ' ,. Ped.. and 31 from the diploma courses, making a total of 47. Today, there are about in students working on the advanced four-year courses and the course for college graduates. The courses of study have always ranked with those in the best teachers colleges in the country. The requirements for admission to any course in the State Normal College are the same as to any standard college course — requir- ing fifteen units of secondary work. The courses provide ample training for Grade teachers. Rural teachers. High School teachers, Supervisors, as well as teachers of Music, Kindergarten. Manual Training, and Superintendents and Principals.

Through the persistent effort of Prof. L. J. Addi- cott, together with the loyal support of the University, the Depart- ment has grown to be one of the strongest and best equipped departments of the University. The first year the Department enrolled twelve students and was located in rather incommodious quarters on the third floor of East Wing; but owing to the increasing enrollment the Wing was remodeled, giving the entire third floor, most of the second, and part of the first to this Department. Each year sees new and more expensive equipment added. A department library has been established which contains many of the most valuable books and engineering periodicals; thus, the student of engineering has excellent opportunities to familiarize himself with the current engineering subjects. The course in Civil Engineering c ivers a period of two years. The require- ments for admission are the same as to the Freshman class of the College of Liberal Arts. The course embraces those subjects most useful to the practicing engineer. Special emphasis is given to practical work in land, railroad and typographical surveying, draughting, mapping, computation and designing of bridges, roof trusses, cement testing, instrument adjusting, etc. The advantages are sufficient to attract students from all parts of the country. This course is elective in the general Scientific Course of the University. By taking advanced work in mathematics, physics, and modern languages the student is able in two more years to complete a four-year course leading to the degree of I!. Sc, or to take advanced standing in any leading technical school. Class of 1911. Harsy Garfield Griner Amanda, Ohio. Dwight Albin Riley Athens, Ohio. George Leslie Sherman Athens. Ohio.

In former years when the class was small difficulty was fflrjSDsgl need in maintaining interest in the Vssociatinn. but now mch SHSHI is no longer the condition. Regular meetings arc held bi-weekly at which two papers upon Engineering subjects arc presented, and reports of Cur- rent Events in the Engineering world are made. This is of distinct advantage to the Association as a knowledge of all subjects in the Civil Engineering line is acquired. Moreover, each year the Association is favored with talks along line- related tn the subject of Civil Engineering by professors of the University and b) graduate students having experience in practical work. ( (fficers are elected at a mid-term meeting in the Fall and in the Winter term of the College year. For the Fall and Winter term of 1910-11 the officers u ere : 1 ' resident I ic. irge E. Carr.

Being conducted, as it is, solely by and for the benefit of the students in the De- partment of Engineering, nothing is neglected to make the work as interesting and instructive as possible. The programs for the meetings are as- signed in advance, giving the members an oppor- tunity to choose a subject with which they are familiar ami thus present something of interest to the association. Programs usually consist of re- ports, current events, lectures and talks. Often members of the University faculty, graduate stu- dents, or local engineers are secured to present the practical side of engineering work as gained from experience. In these weekly meetings in which the students always participate they become acquainted with engineering projects near and far. It is here, also, that he learns to express himself more intelligently, an accomplishment that is more or less neglected even in large scientific organizations. Extensive plans are now being arranged for the Annual Electrical Exhibit during Commencement week.

Ohio, October 1. 1890. N pursuance to a call, a number of students, with members of the Faculty met in the Athenian Hall to consider the advisability .if establishing a branch of the Intercollegiate V. M. C. A. in this College. After an informal consideration of the subject, a temporary organiza- tion was effected. The meeting adjourned until 10 a. m.. ( ictober 2nd. ( Ictober ' . ' . 1890. .Meeting called to order by Chairman Gillilan. The committee on solicitation ot names reported that twenty-eight persons wished to become members of a permanent organization. A motion was made by W. A. Westervelt and seconded by E. I.. Matheny that we effect a permanent organization. Motion carried. — From the Records. Among the charter members we note the names of Dr. Win. Hoover. Prof. Fli Dunkle. Prof. D. J. Evans, and Dr. C. V. Super. Over twenty year- have elapsed since the Young Men ' s Christian Association of Ohio University was established. During these years, the organization has been a constantly increas- ing force in the promotion of those thing- for which it was established. Article 11 of the Constitution reads: The object of this Association shall he to promote growth in grace and Christian fellowship among its members, and aggressive Christian work, especially by and for students; to train them for t hristian service: and to lead them to devote their lives to Jesus Christ, not only in distinctively religious callings, but also in secular pursuits. Changing conditions and newly perceive! needs have caused the Associa- tion to widen the horizon of its activities the past few years. In common with the organization of 1890, we have the Bible, Mission. Membership, Finance, Devotional and Intercollegiate Committees. The last named committee seems to have been discontinued for a number of year- preceding 1010 at which time it was re-established with duties more in harmony with present-day condi- tion-. The Social Committee was established a number of years ago. The Social Service Committee and Alumni Committee are of recent establishment. This year, another committee has been added, that of Church Relationship. The main object of this committee will be to link the work of the Association with that of the city churches in Athens, thus making the V. M. C. A. what it should he. an aid to the church. In 1905 the work had assumed such proportions that it was deemed advis- .it ill- to employ a salaried General Secretary. His duty is the general supervision of all the activities of the Association. In the ( Ihio University Association, as m a number of others, the General Secretary i- employed for a part of his time only, the remainder living devoted to regular scholastic work. This policy, it is to be hoped, will soon give plan to one of a full-time General Secretary. The work of our Association has been worthy of commendation. Yet i Urate success should but stimulate us to more persistent and consistent activity, so that Ohio University and her boys, as the year- go by, may more and more be worthy of the favorable consideration of the Christian young man seeking an education. Ont II ■ I I two o 3 C 3 Y. W. C. A. ■ I X growth and influence no student organization in the University has seen a more prosperous year just closed than has the Young Women ' s Christian Association. The enrollment now numbers two hundred and thirty members. This is the one society to which each woman student of the University should belong and without which there would be felt a distinct loss in the life not only of its immediate members but also of the University as a whole. It is the only assembly in which all ( I. I . girls may meet together, become better acquainted, be mutually helpful and through its various activities give added value to college life. Many girls trained in the V. W. C. A. work of Ihio University have, on leaving college been of great value in communities needing such leaders. In this direction the true worth of the V. W. C. A. would be very difficult to estimate. That its usefulness is recognized and highly valued by the University faculty, has been at all times evidenced by their substantial support and words of encouragement. The splendid character of the devotional meetings has been one of the important features of this year ' s work. The Bible and Mission classes have proven of much interest, many girls being enrolled as members in these classes. Systematic giving to the cause of Missions has also received the support of num- bers of the Y. W. C. A. girls. Association pledges for carrying on the State work have increased in pro- portion to the increase in membership ; and the fact that the funds necessary to meet the obligations of the Association are obtained in ways unduly burdensome to none, brings a feeling of just pride to the hearts of all loyal Y. W. ' s. The thanks of the Association go out to those members of the University faculty who have so generously given their services in the Twilight Recitals. These charming affairs have been so well received that they are likely to become a permanent feature in the Y. W. C. A. To the Summer Conference in 1910, held at Granville, Ohio, the following were sent as delegates : Misses Berenice Barnes, Mary Connett. Margaret Flegal, Ethel Lumley, Carrie Ricketts. Austa Speck, and Elizabeth Robinso n. In the light of its past achievements and by the help of the loyal Christian spirit of its members, the Y. W. C. A. with confident hope looks forward to a yet wider and better influence. One Hundred and Twenty-fivt ly ©?

One Hundred and Twenty-st 1 1 n The Athenian Literary Society E Athenian Literary Society of Ohio Univer- sity is the successor of the Polemic Literary Society which in turn was the outgrowth .it the Zelothian Literary Society organized in 1812. At a meeting of the Polemic Society, Saturday, June 5, 1819, it was decided to alter the form of the Society and adopt a new constitution. This Constitution was report- ed at a meeting held Saturday, June 10, 1819. The Polemic Society was then dis- solved and the Athenian Literary Society organized by the adoption of the new ei insti- tution and the election of officers. No fur- ther record of the Polemic Society, it- date of organization, time of succeeding the Zelothian Society, or of its work is to be fi rand. In lS:iii thi Society was incorporated by act of the General Assembly and it was endowed thereby with perpetual succession and many other rights and privileges. For many succeeding years the meetings of the Societv were in absolute secrecy, hut from time to time special programs were given in Chapel Hall to which the towns-people and members of the faculty were invited. Some- times as many as two evenings were taken for the rendering of such programs which were given exclusively 1 men students, as women had not been admitted to the privilege of membership as yet. The Athenian Literary Society numbers among her alumni some of the foremost jurists of this and other States — men who now fill places of trust and honor have served in the President ' s chair of this Society guiding the Society onward in her happy and prosperous destiny. The girls now constitute about one-half the present membership and it has become a well established principle, whatever the idea of its founders may have been, that the Society would not be nearly so productive of its good results were it not for their presence in the Society. In the series of contests with our sister Society, the l ' hilomathean, we have shared very fortunately. Our winners for the year 1910 were Edna Bell, reading; Winifred Richmond, poem; H. A. Tuttle, first, and E. L. Bandy, second prize in the annual oratorical contests. These contests have in every instance stimulated the members to greater effort and aroused a greater determi- nation to keep the name and fame of the Athenian Literary Society upon the high plane of excellence set by the example of its founders and to band to posterity a name loved and cherished for its good deeds throughout the history of the i ihio University. (in, Hundred and ' ' i ighi Philomathean Literary Society TyZ ' A Jj5L r A M t? m HE first meeting of the Philomathean Literary Society was held about .March. 1822, but the exact date and business then transacted, ex- cept the acfoption of a constitution, arc n I definitely known, as the proceedings were written upon loose paper. These papers were lost and nothing more pertaining to this first meeting could be learned. This Society con- tinued as an organization until 1839, when it was incorporated by act of the Legislature. For some time the society met in strict se- crecy, and none but members were permitted to attend. In recent years it lias been open to the public. The Society now meets in a well-fur- nished room in Music Hall, but it has not always been so fortunate. The original place of assembly was in the attic of Central Building. In those days the initiations were very formal and impres- sive, and the dutie s of the members, directed by stringent rules, were discharged in the most exemplary manner. For some time girls were debarred from all privileges of the Society, but as the Co-eds became more formidable, they were admitted to the Philomathean Society as well as to the Athenian Society. Many are the changes which have occurred in the workings of the Phil- omathean Literary Society since 1S22. But not once in the history of the Soci- ety has the enthusiasm and zeal, which characterized its founders been lacking. The loyalty of the Philomatheans has always been noteworthy. In recent years they have upborne the high standard of attainment set bv the pioneers, not only in the regular exercises, but in various contests and appointments to literary honors. The Society has made a stead) growth in interest, power, and in num- bers. The present enrollment is about ninety. It is a well known fact that where there are ninety persons, most representative of the college activities, working together for the advancement of the organization, which they represent as well as their own advancement, there will be a very great progress in that organization. Among the members of the Society have been numbered many of those who are known as the most prominent alumni of their alma mater, and who have reflected honor upon all their collegiate connections by success in law, the ministry, and other vocations for which they received their first training in Philo halK. so shall it be this year and in all future years. The Philomathean Society has held the silver loving cup for two years now from her sister Society, the Athenian, in a scries of contests. If she wins it this year she will hold it as a lasting monument of the interest manifested by her members and the success which they have achieved. The winning contestants for tin yeai s,, far are: Wilhelmina Boelzner, oration: A. 1 ' .. C. Jacobs, Harold I I on, and Harry DeLa Rue, debate. Social culture and enjoyment is one of the choicest features characteristic of the regular work of tin- Society, and to be a true Philomathean is to receive the stamp and badge of honor of ' Hiio University. One Hundred mnl Thirty The Adelphian Literary Society IIIS is the youngest Literal ) Society of Ohio University, ami as such it has all the vigor of youth. It was founded in September, 1909. in order to ' give further opportunit) For lit- erary training to the increasing number i students who are entering Ohio Universt) each year. The Society is planned similar to that of the older societies and is doing very efficient work considering the very short time since it was organized. It now has a membership of more than fifty students, whose efforts during the year just closing has produced man) valu- able as well as entertaining programs. These programs alone are the besl indication of the high rank the Society has taken in literary circles of the University. The Adelphian Literary Society has been admitted to the Inter-societ) con- tests in oratory ami plans are now under way for the tri-society contests which will begin the coming year. It certainly must he to the interest of every student of the University to watch the development of the youngest Literary Society of the Oldest College of the ( lid Northwest.

Richards it,,, Hundred and Thirty-five The English Club Till-: English Club is one of the oldest departmental clubs connected with Ohi University, lu-t when it was organized is hard to determine, but we lin l it flourishing under the reign of Professor Willis Bough- ton, who was professor f English from 1889 to 1899. L ' nder Professor Boughton ' s rule the club enjoyed the euphonious name of The Columbiad. The most ambitious enterprise of the club was the founding of a club magazine also called The Columbiad, a periodical not intended to supplant The Atlantic Monthly. The Century and Harper ' s, but merely to supplement tlu-m. for it has been found by youthful poets and near-poets that these magazines net d help, in- space, for the publications of poetic lucubrations; they lack the opportunity to give budding genius a hearing before an eager public. So The Columbiad was started to bring Ohio University poets and storv-writers before the public. This it did — for five numbers. Yes, it van to five numbers. Two or three issues actually paid for themselves, but the immense popularity of the magazine caused such an enormous circulation that the publishers, in other words, the club, were unable to pay the postage, and after the fifth issue the magazine was laid away in peaceful oblivion and deathless obscurity — the obsequies costing SHU. In the language of Enoch Arden. the University had seldom seen a costlier funeral, at least up to that time. Since then vario us organizations have surpassed the English Club in this one respect of funeral cost. At present the English Club meets once a month from October to May at the home of Dean Chubb, from seven to eight. The members read their own pro- ductions which must be original stories and poems — critical essays and apprecia- tions and learned interpretations are not allowed. It is interesting to note that for year- the winner of the Emerson Prize Poem Fund has been chosen from the ranks of the English Club. Some of the best magazines in this country occasionally, very frequently, in fact, publish poetry written by former club members, tine of the older members writes concerning the members of long ago; All of the members without exception, so far as 1 know, are at present open to indictment for breach of promise to the Muse. I have never known such a brilliant assemblage of youth; for it was tacitly understood that each member should he politely credulous as to the genius of the others. Put alas 1 They have all subsided to the common level of respected citizens. Some ol tin- earliest members of the club, as this historian has gathered from Thi l lumbiad, are: J. II. Atkinson. C. G. Matthews, F. C. Schofield. C. G. I I ' Bleness, W. EC. Greenbank, and Misses Mabel and .da Wickham, Grace Reah, Uio Pilcher, Carrie A. Matthews, Margaret Plyley, Janette S. Parker. Jessie M. Tresham, Elizabeth Burns, Nell Wilson. t present the English Club is in a very flourishing condition, having a membership of about eighteen poets and novelists; that these include the brightest -indents in the University is generally acknowledged b) all that is. by all who are members of this particular club. ' Ibis may be due to the fact that it lake- genius t. . reo ignize genius. (in, lliniiinii mill Thirty six - X K-i 3 u — _ — 3 (j 2c 5 g bW o u — . .« _.-c .5° (S .

M. Woo G. G. Law K. C. Tong L. K. Leon T. H. Chan W. K. T Tsui THE Chinese Students Club of Ohio University is a branch of the Middle West section of the Chinese Students ' Alliance of North America. This Club was organized November 24th, 1910, with a membership of six. The purpose of this organization is to bring the Chinese students in this and either Universities into close friendship with American students; to exchange ideas and to render help to one another; and to promote the common welfare of the organization members. The meetings of the local Club are held regularly at the Club room on the first Saturday of each month. At the meetings aside from the regular business the members are required to bring up subjects for discussion. These questions concern the immediate welfare of the students and their organization. The other sub-divisions of the Chinese Students ' Alliance of North America, besides the Middle West section, are the Eastern section and the Western sec- tion. Any organization having five charter members has the privilege of sending one delegate to the Alliance Convention. The delegate of the local club is Mr. W. K. T. Tsui. Another feature of the Alliance is its attempt to unite the Chinese students of the American universities by means of regular conventions held annually at which every member of the Alliance is permitted to attend. Although lasting for only a few days these conventions are the means of greatly strengthening the ties that unite the Chinese students in a bond of common fellowship. One Hundred nul Forty-ont The Chemical Society THE Chemical Society was organized April 6, 1910, and is composed of the more advanced students of the Chemistry Department. The pur- pose of this Society is to create a closer relation and fellowship among the students: to study both theoretically and scientifically the chemical problems of the day. Meetings are held bi-monthly and many interesting reports are given which result in general discussions among the members, thus creating a continued source of interest. The membership has been increased over that of last year and now includes most of the advanced students in the Chemistry Department. Fred Langenberg, our esteemed President, has been misled from the worthy occupation of a chemist to the mediocre profession of medicine. He is now an understudy of Dr. Higgins. 0. C. Stout, our most congenial Vice President, is now engaged in the inspection of the Steel and Iron Works at Wellston, i Ihio, and at Jackson.

Webber, a most efficient worker on program committee and an expert analytical chemist, has chosen for his side-line the profession of embalming. He is now taking apprenticeship lessons at Glouster, Ohio. There ' s a reason why. P. R. Stout, who has a thorough knowledge of organic chemistry, is con- nected by filial ties to The Beelman Company of Chicago. Ohio. John B. Dickson has unquestionably the most elaborate theoretical knowl- edge of the food, growth, and mobility of the ions of all known and unknown elements. He is an authority on ether. Fred Wheaton. a member of diversified occupations, but given mostly to automobiling and canoeing, occasionally visits the Society for pastime. Park L. Boneysteele is a member of the Society but is but little seen and much less heard of. His pipe is his only confidant. C. E. Stailev, ves. Stailey. he ' d the only married man in the Society.

The need for such an organization had long been realized by the students as well as by the University authorities, but it was not until the establishment of the Department of Public Speaking with Professor H. R. Pierce in charge that this organization was made possible. Its purpose, as its name implies, is to increase the interest in this work and to improve the mem- bers in the art of public speaking and debating, in short to give them such prac- tice and instruction along this line as every college student needs. This Association furnishes also the trained students for the Inter-Collegiate debates and for oratorical contests. The organization consists of two parts, the Executive Council and the Literary body. The Council is composed of three members from each of the Literary societies of the University and tive members of the University faculty, appointed by the President. The duty of this body is to select officers of the Association, grant membership and transact all business that pertains to tin- organization. The Literary body is composed of all the members of the Associa- tion which meets every two weeks for the purpose of giving programs consisting of orations, readings, debate and extemporaneous. Any regular student of the University may become a member of the Asso- ciation by paying a small yearly fee, after having been admitted through action of the Executive Council. Thus it is evident that the Association was not founded exclusively for the purpose of assisting only those who are able to make the Inter-Collegiate Debating and Oratorical teams, but for the purpose i if benefiting every one who might participate in the work of the organization. The regular Inter-Collegiate debaters who participated in the dual meet with Marietta College were chosen early in the year. Those who composed the team to debate the question : Resolved. That a general increase in Federal authority is desirable, were the following: M. L. Fawcett, J. A. Long, L. H. Miller, L. D. Jennings, H. A. Elson, R. E. Gutridge, George Blower and Harry De LaRue. Later in the year an oratorical meet will be held at Miami University, the Universities participating being Miami, Ohio, Butler, and DePauw, the two latter of Indiana. The orators to represent Ohio University will also be chosen from the ranks i if the ( Iratorical Association. ii, f, Hundred and Fortg-fivt The Thalian Dramatic Club of the Ohio University Director Marie A.

Since its organization the Club has held weekly meetings at which very interesting and instructive programs have been rendered. During the Fall term these programs were in the nature of addresses by Dean Williams and by other members of the University faculty. With one or two exceptions the later programs have been given by members of the Club. These are some of the advantages of the Teachers ' Club: it gives the Dean Hi the Normal College an opportunity to present from time to time informa- tion of special interest to teachers and prospective teachers: it gives an oppor- tunity for discussion of live educational topics of the day: for mutual helpfulness among its members through exchange of idea- ; for occasional social gatherings. At the beginning of the Winter term a more compact organization was effected. A constitution wa- adopted, officers elected and a membership roll formed. The interest which lias characterized the meetings from the first has been unflagging. The Club is doing a valuable work. It is a democratic organization, not for the good of a few. but for all. At the present time the Teachers ' Club numbers about seventy-five mem- ber-, and its prospects for efficient service and a prosperous existence are very favorable.

The Kindergarten Club of Ohio Universit) was organized October 28th, 1910, and meets in the Kindergarten Rooms of Ellis Hall. The ( Ifficers are : President Kate Dover Vice President Freda Williams Secretary Mary Arvesta Kiser Treasurer Helen Floreni i. Ayers The meetings are held the first Saturday night of each month from ' , :30 to 9:45 at the homes of different members of the Club. The colors of the Club are Red. Yellow and Black, these being chosen because they are the adopted l ii lebel colors. The object of the Club is to promote sociability, to keep in touch with what is being done in the kindergarten world and to extend the interest in kinder- garten work. The programs vary somewhat in their nature, there being given at each meeting an original paper or report upon some line of work done for children, such as for delinquent, dependent, defective or abnormal children, and two articles from magazines treating of different phases of kindergarten work. An informal discussion follows each report, and music and readings add ma- terially to the entertainment of the meetings. After the program i given refresh- ments are served, thus making complete a single session of the Club.

Urn Hundi l tiiil Fifty-viiu ofl c S c — t - i 10 ' o « s on ?«| 3 X E3 c •a 13 g « 5 £ 2 Side Lights S ' IDE LIGHTS was established by the Barbarians in 1906 soon after the Ohio University Mirror was discontinued. As stated in the first issue, it is devoted to the interests of ( Ihio University and the non-fraternity students, a principle to which it has unswerving!) adhered throughout its course. Since that time Side Lights, then an eight-page pamphlet, has increased in scope and editorial staff until now it is the recognized university monthly and is well known to many other colleges and college publications, among which it has attained a high rank. Its columns are open to all the students of the University, although the staff is composed of non-fraternity students. When the Barbarians in 1910 formed the organization known as the Ohio University Union, Side Lights was taken over and is now published by it on practically the same basis as before. The present staff, under the leadership of L. M. Shupe. Editor-in-Chief, has enlarged and improved it in several ways and has been much gratified by the favorable esteem in which it is held by sub- scribers, exchanges, and advertisers. It is the purpose of the Union to still further extend the sphere of Side Lights in college circles and continue to make it a worthy representative of the University in other institutions.

The initial and continued ap- pearance of the Ohioan. weekly, is a living verification of this old axiom. ( Hit of chaos, consisting of a crossing of a multitude of inter- ests, personal, factional, and universal, true patriotism for Ohio University finallj succeeded in forging out a long-sought ambition — the estab- lishment of an independent, non-partisan, non-factional, representative college ' paper — a frequent, open and effective medium for news and sentiment. A good beginning is half the battle. ( ur whole battle is won. It is a calamitous propensity of American enterprise to indulge in Pig Opening days, and in the majority of instances to experience a retrogression. If half a life accrues from a fortunate inception, then what must be the duration of a project begun under a ban. and whose early career is the triumphant survival of inordinate reverses and discouragements? In this there exists a proportion, and it augurs in favor of the ( Ihioan. While there can be no boasting of pre- tentious Vol. . Xo. , yet there is ample evidence that the ideas and ideaK of this youthful institution are sowed deeply in the bosoms of a few enthusiastic pioneers, that there will always be an increasing host in future years, whose hearts and hands will labor incessantly to insure its endurance as long as there is a larger institution to serve and to represent. The first issue of the paper was born January 26, 1910. The initial issue for the current year appeared the second week i if the Winter term. Although in its second season only, the Ohioan plan is in its third dispensation: but progressive things must undergo change; it is an index of advancement. The original design was loose, and ended with the fifth number. The succeeding draught provided for an advisory board composed of the University President and the deans of the College of Liberal Arts and the Normal College, besides a permanent student delegation for election purposes, which delegation was pro- portioned among the religious, social, and literary organizations of the Univer- sity. The present scheme retains the advisory board and confines the choosing of delegates to the classes of the University, proportioned as follows : Seniors. . ) ; Juniors. 1; Sophomores. 3; Freshmen. 3. By this convention the present staff was chosen. Under the new regime the repertorial board is entirely inde- pendent of their constituency as pertains to their duties. Thus the management was lifted from the meshes of politics to a higher, securer plane of efficiency and service. THE STAFF Allen M. Bower, ' 12 Editor-in-Chief Harry B.

On, hundred and Sixty fom The Ohio University Union THE Ohio University Union is the successor of the Barbarian move- ment. It was the feeling of the leaders of the old Barbarian movement that a closer and more effective organization was necessary to ade- qnatelv represent the non-fraternity element of Ohio University. Consequently, at the close of the school year of 1 in 19-10 a constitution was drafted and later adopted by about seventy-live charter members. The object of the organization as set forth in the constitution is To foster ,i spirit of democracy and equalitv among t] le students: to encourage participation in the educational, religious, social, and athletic activities of the University : ti i maintain a high standard of scholarship and morality ; to promote the general welfare of the University; and to perpetuate the bond of union between the students and their Alma Mater. The constitution provides for the usual officers and an executive committee elected by the Union. The social, house, membership, and athletic committees are appointed by the President. A club house, located at 100 University Terrace, has been secured for the use of the organization. A reading room and com- fortable quarters for a number of the men of the Union are found here. It is the intention of the Union to secure a reading and assembly room for the women of the organization. The social events of the year have been a feature of the work of the organi- zation. The policv of the social committee has been to retain the three annual functions of the old organization — a reception for the non-fraternity students at the beginning of the school year, a banquet in the Winter term, and a picnic in the Spring term. In addition, other social events are held from time to time. The growth of the organization during the first year of its existence has been gratifying. Similar organizations exist in a number of American colleges, and plans are being perfected for the nationalization of the movement. Such a movement will unify and crystallize the non-fraternity sentiment in our colleges, will foster the spirit of equality and democracy, and will make possible the at- tainment of those things which are highest and best in college life.

One of the direct results was to eliminate several good men on account of ineligibility in rank and attendance at school. This resulted in having a very small squad from which to select a team, and these mostly raw recruits. So that from the stand- point nf scores the season of 1910 certainly looks disastrous. However when considered from the standpoint of the personnel of the team we are confident that a marked improvement is to be recorded, for here we find only regular students, hard workers in the University as well as on the gridiron, whose main business at Ohio University is not to play football. Herein do we consider that Ohio University has taken a great step forward, as a direct result of the observance of Conference Rules. And even the scores then, read in the light of conditions. considering the fact that ( hio was playing winning teams of this and champion teams of other States, are not so disappointing to him who can properly appreci- ate those condition-. A very rigid application of a strict construction of the Conference Rule- has made it extremely difficult for team candidate- to do other than place scholar- ship above athletic aspirations, and this together with a continued necessity for training out new and inexperienced men, whose only qualification for football is their rank, has made it bard for any coach. While the year ' s record can reflect no honor to our athletic ability, considered from the standpoint of scores and they are the elements that win or lose, yet the squad placed under the absolute control of an efficient coach, having eliminated all politics and receiving the financial support that the fair name of Ohio should warrant, can take mi renewed life and vigor and when such condition- are brought about no one will be a greater gainer than will be ( )hio University.

Two Hundred and Nine ASKET-BALL The Season of 1910 Basket ball as an intercollegiate sport was ruled out by the faculty at Ohio University for the year 1910. However, at the beginning of the college year the favorable disposition of the student body toward the game and their desire for its re-instatement found expression through sufficient pledges to support a team and schedule. Although late to arrange a schedule a very satisfactory one was arranged, being marked by teams of a higher standard than usually obtained, and under this arrangement seven games were played. bile only three of the seven games were won by Ohio vet the games were for the most part decidedly close and only showed the necessity of better team work on the part of Ohio. The entile season was marked bv consistent playing of every man engaged in the games. The star of the season was, beyond a doubt, Capt. Beckley, whose fine work at forward was only rivaled by that of Tewksbury. Capt. Beckley is an excep- tionally fast player and his ability at passing and basket-shooting is remarkably fine. Tewksbury ' s best games were undoubtedly those with Muskingum and Wittenberg, but he displayed good work throughout the schedule. Portz and Kenney at guard made good, although neither were experienced players, having engaged only in this season ' s games with a few exceptions of the former during the previous season. Bingman started the season at center, but was replaced by Wood, a heavier man. each playing very creditably their positions. McCorkle, an old-time star, participated in the last games, and showed some of his old- time classy playing. For the season of 1912 R. Kenney has heen elected Captain and there are no g 1 reasons, considering the excellent material shown up bv the inter-class teams of this year, why Ohio should not he a winner in basketball in 1912.

Tiro Hundred and Tlm-h. n ALL The Season of 1910 Baseball at Ohio under Conference Rule-, ha-, been a decided success, even rivaling the old-time glory of Ohio in this class of athletics. The eligibility rules were strictly adhered to, and many very efficient players were barred, neverthe- less a strong team was developed, which won live of eight intercollegiate game- scheduled for 1910. MacWilliams, first base. A quick thinker and very heady player, who always worked to win. .Mac was a great kidder. Gibson, second base. Gibson was taken from the out-field, where he played in ' 09 to a position, new to him, and consequently a little difficult for him to play. One of the best batters of the team. Beckley, shortstop. A fast infielder, playing his position very creditably. As a batter be excelled in getting bases on balls, and was the best base stealer on the team. Starr, third base. Irdinarily an out-fielder. Starr played a good game at third and was probably the best batter on the team. E. Jones, left fielder, team captain. A very fast out-fielder, always sure of flies. Three years an old stand-by of ( )hio team. Tewksbury, center fielder. A fair batter and a good man on the field, with an arm far above the average. Fine control. McCorkle, right fielder. A good speedy fielder with an arm good for a home plate throw when necessary. He has a batter ' s eye and will make a hitter with experience. Captain-elect for the year 1911. Knight, pitcher. His first year at pitching was very successful and with this experience he should be a valuable man for the season of 1911. D. Blythe, catcher. Often spoken of as the best catcher on any Ohio college team and well deserves the name, for Ohio University never had a better catcher or more dependable man on her baseball team. Wood, pitcher. Last season was Wood ' s second season as pitcher, having held down the pitcher ' s box very creditably since Kaler ' s exit from local athletics. He pitched a one-hit game against Denison.

A good team has been developed and several meets scheduled for the season. The track on ( Ihio field ha-- been put in first- class condition and we may justly expect to share our part of the honors in the coming meet-. i in the first indoor meet of the year with Denison our team wa- handicapped by reason of the small track in the Denison Gymnasium, affording no straight- aways but a continuous turn, a condition to which our team was altogether unaccustomed. Although Denison won this meet. Shield- of Ohio took first in shot-put, Watson of Ohio, first in standing broad-jump, and Gillilan of Ohio tied with Sweet of Denison for lirst in pole-vault. The prospects for winning meets .luring the season are excellent and given proper training and attention track work will continue to improve. Each spring an inter-class meet i- held, the Freshman Class winning in the year 1910 with but little competition except from the preps. This work will be continued during the coming year, and also the regular inter-scholastic High School meets will be held, thus adding to the elements that are conducive to improvement to the interest given to track work at Ohio.

Although a note of didacticism is scarcely ever absent from his poetry, he never directly appeals to the intellect, so strikingly dues he spiritualize his thought. Rarely, too, does he accom- plish his presentment of truth through analogue or allegory. But in the poems to be considered he eludes any attempt of the reader to make definite his meaning. These poems appeal to us as rhymed and rhythmic outbursts of exalted and enthusiastic emotion ; as little pictures of s omething far too intangible for pal- pable grasp ; or as some Meeting expressions of passing poetical fancy. True, in each there is artistic completeness, organic unity. But the striking feature is the wealth of suggestion and range of association. This quite justifies the bald simplicity of certain lines. Some readers have found here only five simple stories. Others have opined that Wordsworth was telling of some child or was recording some incident of personal bearing. Still others have felt that the poems may include these things and even much more; that they embody ideal conceptions which may subsume a diversity of thought and experience. The last poem in the suite may be read first. It affords ample evidence and insight into the fact that the poet evades concrete fixation of meaning. In A Slumber Did My Spirit Seal the writer presents the influence of his meditations for the time. In the contemplation of his ideal he has no earthly fears. He has entirely surrendered himself to his intuitive power. In his ele- vation of mind, he is so enrapted as to be free from contact with things of ordi- nary import. However, this sense of exaltation of which he speaks else- where as that serene and blessed mood In which the affections gently lead us on, will not permanently abide. The ideal that so supremely caught him up from the commonplace has lost its potency and has taken its place with the actual and the ordinary. Its dominating power now avails nothing; it is forever shattered. Tiro Hundred and Twenty-nine No motion has she now. no force; She neither hears nor sees; Rolleil round in earth ' ? diurnal course, With rocks and stones and trees. II She Dwelt Among the Untrodden Ways is a depiction of an ideal that held imperious sway over the poet through certain stages of his psychic life. Obscure, unknown to others, and loved only by few, this attitude of life made hallow the days of the poet. The beauty of the possessing enthusiasm is adequately embodied in that incomparable second stanza, which Ruskin calls the most strik- ing piece of coloring in the English language. But again the change comes. That which so engrossed him has gone from his life never to return. Of the pang felt by a poet ' s heart after the necessary surrender of an ideal so fondly cherished, who can tell? In Forerunners Emerson shows us his conception of a somewhat similar theme. Thoreau ' s famous fable of the hound, the dove, and the horse and Shelley ' s Alastor are familiar tales of human aspiration. These all reveal a kinship with the Lucy poems. To extend the list would occasion little difficulty. Ill The pursuit of his ideal is given in the form of a little love theme in Strange Fits of Passion Have 1 Known. ( Inly to the sympathetic will he reveal his secret — to the lover ' s ear alone. He is on the eve of attainment or realization of something long nurtured, and then there passes through his mind a momen- tary reflection upon the greatness of the loss if Lucy should be dead. IV I ove of country, made more dear because of the human attachment and the associations of one ' s most reflections, is gracefully presented in Traveled Among Unknown Men. )ur port is perhaps making universal his own experi- ensuing from his visit to France. After his disappointment over the inevi- table course taken by the French Revolution, a result of shocking repugnance to his feelings, he for a time lost faith in God and man. Doubtless this motive of defeated purpose and of abandoned idealization i- felt in the first three poems mentioned. By contrast his native land is now closer to his heart than bi fi ire. In Three ) can She Grew we are strongly reminded of Bryant ' s Fairest Rural Maids. Both poems recall Rousseau ' s storj Emile. The educative value of nature a- a leading factor in the life of the child has been long n nized, Poets generally have made liberal use of the conception. George Eliol applies it in the education of Eppie. She quotes Wordsworth ' s famous line in telling us that beauty born of murmuring sound bail passed into the child ' s face. Since Ruskin has so matchlessly written of this poem, little or nothing is left to be said. Suffice it to add that the poet is informally placing before us his ideal of education. Elsewhere he has fundamentally expressed himself in these lines : — One impulse from a vernal wood .May teach you more of man. Of moral evil and of good, Than all the sages can. There is no doubt that he so immediately felt the operative force of nature upon his own heart and mind that he was convinced most persons shared this susceptibility. HIRAM ROY WILSON. wo II ii : r ; . d ' i ii Thirty-one The Sistine Madonna Virginia Crisenberry, ' 13. TilK wind howled and shrieked; the bare boughs of the trees, covered with ice. cracked and snapped as thev were stirred in the frosty air. The hard snow and sleet beat against the window panes a if in defiance to the protection man had made for himself. All the elements of nature seemed to combine to make the night one ol the most dismal and dreary. All this but helped to emphasize the warmth and comfort in be seen through an uncurtained window of the house. The house, itself, stood near the street and passers-by always bad the thought of ease and comfort connected with it. for it was the home of the most promising young doctor of the town. And tonight the few stragglers who ventured out bad their opinion confirmed by the picture which could be seen through the window. An open tire burned on the grate ami lighted up the walls of the room with a warm glow. ( n one side of the grate sat the young doctor in an easy chair engaged in reading a magazine. The evening papers lay on the floor beside him where he had thrown them after a hasty reading. On the rug in front of the grate lay a large house-dog. peace- fully dozing. ( hi the other side of the grate sat the one who gave the whole picture a home-like, comfortable air. and that one was the young doctor ' s wife. gently swaying in the large rocking chair as she lulled her babe to sleep. [ he shaded light cast a soft radiance on the whole room and it-, occupants. But, in spite of the appearance the room gave to the outside world, in spite of the comfort and ease that money had given the man power to procure, the life that was lived within this bouse was not one of all happiness. For, during the five vears which had passed since the wife had come as a young bride to the home, a change had taken place. The old feeling of devotion and self-sacrificing love bad died and, in its place, a new feeling had sprung up of friendlv interest and comradeship toward her husband. Her happiness no longer consisted of attending to his wants and planning little surprises, and she bad even ceased greeting him in the evenings with a cheery welcome. Her husband had felt this change but bad made no attempt to stop it. He scarcely had time to notice her moods and humor her whims. His days were busy days and there was no time to attend to little things at home. Instead of the devoted, indul- gent husband, be became a comrade and friend but without some of the most enduring qualities of a real, sympathetic friend. All evenings at home had grown to be as ibis one. They were passed mostly in silence with occasionally a friendly inquiry as to the day ' s happenings and a short, uninteresting repl) Two II ■ ' - Thirty two o long confidences, no recitals of trivial, and yet important incidents, to a sympathetic listener. Tlie papers and magazine and. of late, the child, had taken the place of these. Tonight, as they sat thus, the woman raised her eyes to glance out into the cold, hut they traveled no further than to the window. For, framed in the pane, was a face with two large, dark, expressive eyes and dark hair tossed about by the wind. The rocker stopped in its swaying, and this attracted the attention of the doctor. As he turned to follow his wife ' s gaze, they both heard a shrill human cry and saw the face no longer. In one instant, the doctor was on his feet and out of doors and in another entered the room again with the fainting form of a woman which he laid on a couch near the fireside. By one look, they knew her to be an Italian, probably on her way to the West, for this was not at all unusual. Her dark eves opened onlv for a moment, and her lips parted, as she looked at tlie young mother wdio had withdrawn slightly at the sight of one suffering. but who still held her child in her arms. The soft light fell on her as she si I. almost motionless, the folds of her house-gown falling in soft lines about her. and the child in its white, fleecy robes held in both arms. It was no wonder that the Italian woman raised up a little to whisper, with arm- outstretched, My Madonna! My Sistine Madonna! The husband turned about and looked at his wife with a new feeling strug- gling in his breast. My Madonna! ( Ih, was she so sacred and holy ' Was it not right, then, after all, that her mother-love should absorb a great part of her wifely-love? The thoughts that crowded in, one upon another, were reproach- ful and accusing. Did she not. as one more divine and sacred, deserve more attention, ves, even more adoration than what he bestowed upon her ? A new feeling of tenderness seized him and he inwardly resolved to pay due worship to his Madonna. As for her. when the tenderly whispered words reached her ears, -he started. She a Madonna? The thought was unpleasant to her that such a one as the Madonna should be compared to one as unworthy and earthly as she. The bundle in her arms stirred and caused her to look down. A great flood of mother-love poured over her face but mingled with unselfishness now, for never before had she realized the sacredness of the child and his probable mission in the world. Xow. it brought to her mind the greatness of her duty and the importance of her mission here in the world, and it gave her new energy. Again, as she looked up. her glance rested on her husband and she seemed to hear again the words, My Madonna! But would one, as noble and unselfish as the Virgin, be so inconsiderate of another ' s desires? No need of a Father Confessor now — her conscience and her thoughts were enough. Every inconsiderate act loomed up before her eyes. Her helpful deeds seemed very few and small beside them. Any thought of censuring his acts was thrust aside, for no Madonna would think the fault another ' s. Could she not change the life they were living now? Was it not her place as wife and mother to make the home? And could she not interest herself in another ' s work to make it more interesting TV,, Hundred . . .7 Thirty-thret and lighter? Then she winced. She could see distinctly how she had shrunk back at any sign of distress or suffering, and even how tonight she repulsed the thought of aiding the needy. Xo one with the spirit of a Madonna would refuse aid and sympathy to a fellow creature in distress. New resolves entered her heart, and she stepped to her husband ' s side to assist in the last hour at the bedside of the dying woman. Xor did the change last for only the one night. Days and weeks passed and the home became a place of refuge for the distressed, for. bv the side of their beloved doctor, they always found a gentle sympathetic companion — a real ministering angel. Above the grate in the room at the front of the house, there one day was hung a large beautiful picture of the Sistine Madonna, and no evening passed, when the little family sat by the fire-side, but that two were intently studying the picture — the one comparing every detail in the Virgin ' -, picture with those of his wife, adoring both in the same moment, and blessing silently that winter night that had sent to him a poor dying messenger to awaken his better soul and arouse him to his true self ; the other studying every feature in the Madonna ' s face, which only stood for a symbol of the character within, and hoping that b dailv striving she might acquire more of those characteristics. She, too. could never full) express her thankfulness for the unknown worshipper of that ever- remembered night. And passers-by never failed to note, sometimes uncon- sciously, the presence as if of two Madonnas in that room where the Sistine could be seen so plainly from the street. And as the mission of the painting was to cheer the down-hearted by a vision of the divine love and to bring new inspiration to the faithful, so the spirit from this home, too, always brought new energy and hope to the oppressed and comfort to the discouraged. Two Hundred und 1 1 ■ Leeflcss By ( ). U. Coaklev. WHILE the class was assembling, the professor entered the room and rapidly placed a lung list of questions on the board. Then he turned nd smiled in a way that was peculiar to him. Now this professor was the real thing, matured and efficient. He was a little man, and wore big glasses. That part of his head where hair is usually found, was glistening and had a slippery look in its shiny barrenness. He was quite conscious of his ability and often flattered himself on his superior perceptive powers, keenness of observation, and his unerring skill in detecting the true worth of men. He had a profound sense of humor which spasmodically sprang into action and soared away through such an intricate maze of bewilder- ing wit that the fancy of all who attempted to follow it was taxed to the utmost. He still persisted in exercising his smiling muscles. Oh, but that facial con- tortion was a confuser to the collections of personal equations which made up the professor ' s daily classes. That one trait was sufficient to mark its owner as an extreme fluctuating variation. No one ever tried to imitate the feat. It vv is too much for the unaccomplished and unpracticed beholders to tackle. Every- body looked once, and then, trusted to luck. What would follow the coming of that smile no being knew, and the professor rejoiced over the fact. He entertained the idea that a man in a state of confusion invariably turns a not often -ecu side of hi- nature out for inspection. The professor delighted in seeing his fellow men from the unusual point of view. He continued to smile and let his gaze wander slowl) over the room. Throughout the room an intensity of feeling manifested itself in a shifting of positions, frowning glances at the long list of questions, and eager looks of solicitation, doubt, determination, and occasionally a system of growing self assurance. In a row of chairs back against the wall there sat the ever conspicuous I lassmates Three. Their faces were, indeed, maps of expression. Mention of the fact that these irregularly attending lecture-room ornament-, these inveterate dodgers of intellectual cultivation, were ignorant, shockingly, of the subject matter with which the examination had to deal, would suffice for any ordinary imaginative creature to picture in his own mind the display of emotion that showed itself on the face- of the Classmates Three. It is horrid to disclose such a monstrous fact, but each of these trembling youth was well prepared for the examination. Prepared in an illegal w y. to be Tito Hundred and Thirty-five sure, Inn nevertheless prepared the} were, each after his own idea of the most practicable substitute for a brain tilled with learning. Classmate LJnus had his knowledge up his sleeve, neatly written, and com- posed of material which his neglected intellect moved him to expect on the examination. His neighbor. Dim, was bolder, — not necessarily more ignorant, — and concealed beneath his coat his much not-used text book. I lassmate Tres was known to the student body, and to the faculty, too, by the way. — by the euphonious cognomen of Leefless ( . Woodland. This being was truly a puzzle. His nature was both simplex and complex. These qualities fluctuated, each alternating with the other in its period of supremacy. Which phase dominated depended greatly on the analyzing ability of the pro- fessor i.. whc.se lot it fell tn acquaint Leefless with the fundamentals of what- ever branch of the curriculum the professor happened to teach. To a man look- ing fur great things, Leefless was complex. To one striving fur the minute, Leef less filled the bill and became quite a bit less than any assignable quanitiy. i Ireat was the vanity of the professor who succeeded n first effort in induc- ing Leefless to perceive a point, and immortal was that professor who sowed a seed of knowledge in the sterile mind of Leefless, and caused that seed to grow inti an unforgettable impression. This day of judgment found Leefless externally calm an 1 composed. His demeanor was that of a most learned man of the world. He confidently gazed at the questions on the board, and then, just as confidently, felt with his hand for the huge collection of written assistance which he had stowed away in a coat pocket. Leefless had accepted the inevitable in his must sedate style, for positive was he that he knew but little. The examination had begun. The professor paced the floor before his class. At intervals he peered triumphantly in the direction where the nervous Classmates Three were throbbing under ill-suppressed excitement. That is. as regards Classmates LJnus and Duo, but as for Leefless, he throbbed, if at all. only internally. The hurrying of pencils, the ruffling of paper, and at times, a stubby rubbing sound as some student erased an error, tilled the on mi with the sounds incident to the diligent application of the faithful. Classmates Cutis and Duo were not contributing their share to the general hum of action. They were obviously embarrassed, and seemed to relapse into long spells of hesitation. The learned professor ' s suspicious eye detected the visible symptoms of their plight. There was something wrong, and straightway he resulted to a method of verifying his suspicions. His crafty glance wandered to all parts of the room, only to fly back and settle on the Classmates Cnus. Duo, Tres. This procedure was continued at most uncertain intervals. In time, Classmates Cnus and Duo comprehended and became wonderfully alert. Leefless was as immune to the scorching glare of the professor ' s eye as a normally sensitive person would have been susceptible. I uo Hundred and Thirty nt ' a Classmate Duo had found it impossible to use his text book. This infor- mation had been conveyed to Classmate (Jnus, who after making a lung cunning wait, seen by the professor, rallied to the rescue of his handicapped friend in ignorance, and attempted to pass to him a portion of his pony masterpiece. A miscalculation caused some confusion and, lo, the professor stood watching the game, — triumphantly smiling. Immediately the professor assumed one of his characteristic attitudes. He rubbed the stubble on his chin while he clothed his thoughts in an original dress of words. The genius of the professor commanded the situation. ( ne of his exceptional eccentricities moved him to issue a command before unheard of. Attention! Will the cavalry in the rear of the room please dismount and dune forward? The thundering call shocked the class into a state of wondering confusii m. The professor extended his arm, beckoning with his fingers toward the inefficient Pony Riders, Classmates Units and Dim paled, flushed, -lowly gained control of their volitional powers, and crawled to their trembling legs, pictures of defeat, dejection, and humiliation. Bring forth the pony, men. burst from the lips of the imposing professor. Single tile, the vanquished Classmates shuffled their way to the professor ' s desk, laid their worthless papers down and meekly surrendered the instrument of deception which had been the means of their downfall. The professor spoke neither words of consolation nor words of criticism, but most impressively he pointed towards the door and smiled his singular smile. The outcasts needed no further instruction. They went, leaving behind them a silence that was unbearable in its completeness. A chamber of death could have been no more free from disturbance than was that room. The door closed with a barely perceptible sound. The faltering footfalls of the downcast Classmates echoed back through the corridor. The class heard the sound and each of its members was touched with the wonderful similarity that existed between the shuffling thump of those dying footfalls and two mournful voice- repeating over and over again with ever diminishing strength of tone, the -ad, dragging chant of F ' f ' flunk-er-tv. F ' flunk ' unk. unk-er-ty. Flunk, unk. unk. The result of this supreme test of the professor ' s powers of detection was prone to manifest itself, in that being, in a feeling of exaltion that taxed his will to subdue. The beaming eyes and slight flush about his ears indicated to a certainty the condition of the man ' s feelings. For a few short moments following this disturbance of the class the professor relaxed his vigilance. He rested his elbows on the window -ill and gazed out, seeing nothing, for he was mentally absorbed in flattering himself on having so skilfully eliminated from his class a pair of undesirable college parasites. During this time Leefless ( ). Woodland had persisted in his expression of perfect composure. In this he always trusted for success, but whether he did so from some motive known to himself, or whether it was a sort of instinct. Tiro Hundrrd and Thirty-seven nobody ever knew. That was one l the seemingly complex points in Leefless, the analysis of which n le had ever succeeded in definitely determining. In a matter of fact way he turned his diverted attention to the prodigious supply of information which he had hastily thrust under his leg but a few mo- ments before. He drew out the valuable notes and began to labor incessantly. Surely the fate of his cheating friends had not altered his previous bent. Leefless was rapidly accumulating sufficient material on his examination paper tn insure for him a passing mark, but to an observer, his expression and manner signified no mure than they had, before he had written a word. The other members of the class were beginning to finish their work. Some of them had passed in their papers. But all this did not hurry Leafless, no, not one whit. He sat. apparently conforming to the rules of honesty, but sentence by sentence he was writing out the useful material that he found in his mass of elaborately prepared notes. The professor turned to his desk to arrange the examination papers piled on its surface. His eyes fell on Leafless. Instantly he became sly, another suspicious character yet remained. The professor again assumed all of his old altertness, and smiled, confident in his powers to detect. For a short time Leafless withstood, unflinchingly, the intent gaze of the professor, and exercised the utmost disregard, apparently, for what he felt — he never thought — the professor had in mind. Gradually, though. Leefless came under the power of an impulse that told him to let well enough go as it was, and stop all further efforts to better his examination paper. Accordingly, he prepared to leave the room, the professor observing each action with the object of estimating its worth as regards his suspicions. Leefless arose from his seat, and horrors! His ponderous pony precipitated itself to the floor — all in a mess. With the most appalling deliberation and superhuman self-composure, Leefless stooped and gathered up the scattered manuscript, crumpled it in his hand, walking towards the professor ' s desk as he did so. He faced the keen-eyed professor with as little tell-tale evidence written in his expression as his soul was engrossed in innocence. The professor was quite at sea. Leefless ' s simplicity was so potent in causing the professor ' s suspicions to dissipate themselves, that the penetrating mind of the able man was being divided against itself. At all event s, the pro- fessor considered it no less than wise to risk a question. What is that. Mr. Woodland? pointing, Yes. that paper you have in your hand. Leefless ( ). Woodland, with no hesitation and less thought, extended the crumpled mass of convicting evidence. The sight of such a monstrous heap would lead anybody to think that it was anything but what it was. and the reply Leefless gave would have unnerved a brass-man when it came to the real nerve involved. Nothing hut scrap paper, professor. Want to see it? Two Uundrt i Thii ty-t - ' The lying words fell from the lips of Leefless with no more effort than what he was wont to advance towards attending his classes. The professor thought fast and to the point. How could anybody know so little as to necessitate the preparation of that heap of notes, if they were such. The mass of paper was large enough to hold a slightly shortened copy of the entire contents of the text-book. In the professor ' s mind, ponies, and all other aids secretly used in examinations, were tiny, neatlv folded, and finely written, much different from this unsightly heap. Then, too, Leefless ' s prompt readiness to be subjected to an investigation was a point in his favor. If Leefless were allowed to go unmolested, there could, in the professor ' s mind, be only a slight suspicion left as to the honesty involved in the man ' s work. And, then, if the paper were opened and found to contain nothing there would be, most surely, an unpleasant light cast on the unerring ability to detect, which the professor credited himself with having. He decided t take a chance and spoke accordingly : I . i that all. Mr. Woodland ? Well, pardon me. You may go then. The indomitable carriage of Leefless, the personified specimen of self- possession, sufficed to convince the professor that he had been in error, but the footsteps of the disappearing Leefless, as they died away, carried a message back to that professor as well as to all within hearing. If anybody had listened closely enough he would have heard those coarse, bumping, voice-like vibrations of Bull-luck, ' luck B ' luck-ity. ' luck. The next day while the results of the examination were being made known to the members of the class, Leefless called at the professor ' s office. Good-morning, professor. May I have my credit slip this morning? Oh er yes, yes, I was just about to mail you the results of your exami- nation. quoth the professor, handing Leefless a stamped envelope. Thank you, professor. Nice day, isn ' t it ? The professor ' s face squirmed into a twist two degrees more complex than a navigator ' s map of the ocean currents, and from some place hidden in the turmoil of wrinkles he emitted the words, Uh, huh, ' tis a nice day. Leefless paused outside the professor ' s door, anxious to learn his fate, he tore open the envelope and read : Mr. Leefless O. Woodland : Your examination paper excelled any other that I have ever read from you. It is obvious that you are a competent man, BUT, you are also absent-minded. Moreover, you are FLUNKED. I found among the pages of your examination paper three leaves of a well- selected pony. Yours. Prof. . Tiro Hundred « .

The opposition of the Faculty lias even gone to the extreme of flunking any- one who is caught carrying out the nefarious purpose of the Irder. At one time the opposition among the students took the form of cards, reading thusly, I promise not to take or give any help whatever in examinations and to tell on any one I see cheating. But these cards were so unpopular that they were soon lost sight of, and at present the list of applications to this Order includes almost the entire student body, and every one is trying with might and main to make some sensation sufficient to insure him membership in this ( Irder.

Biology and the Natural Sciences from the graduation requirements of all cour-c- nf study and require more Economics tinder Dr. Elson, more work in Dr. i hrisman ' s and Dr. Card ' s Departments, and more Drawing and Gym. work. e feel sure that the Faculty in doing this will render a great service to the numerous body of students who do not find these particular subjects of anv practical use to them, and moreover will give them time to take studies of much greater value and interest.

Bloody Bill staggered to his feet for fate had chosen our hero to carry out the dastardly deed which the assembled desperados had planned. After adding to their already well-laid plans a few minor details, Bloody Bill vaulted into the saddle and in a moment was lost in the depth of the canon, which a few miles south, connected with the Kansas City trail. It was a dark and stormy night ; the sleet fell in sheets ; the way seemed interminably long even to this hardened bandit as he sat astride his mount with face hidden in his horse ' s mane. Clouds of dust rolled up and settled on his foam-flecked horse as 111 ly Bill tore oyer the sun-baked trail which connected with the smooth streets of Kansas City. ( If all the banking hours it so happened that this was the busiest. Presi- dent, Cashier and entire force were busy at the windows and no thought of their approaching peril lay in their minds. At this busy moment we see our hero. Colt ' s automatic in his right, dark lantern in bis left, and black mask tightly drawn over his eyes, step quickly through the main entrance and then to the rear of the large banking room and stealthily vault over the partition. The problem that now confronted our hero was to reach the safe which stood at the furthermost end of the enclosure. To do this it was necessary to slip past the men working at the windows without attracting their attention. With catlike stealthiness he made his way towards the safe, once fairly brushing the coattail of the Cashier, but so intent was the latter on his work that Bloody Kill was not detected and finally found himself within arm ' s reach of tiie object of his search. After silently closing the big steel doors, he seized it with a firm grasp, and with a mighty effort, tore loose from its foundation the massive ten ton safe and cautiously dragged it back to the point of the partition, over which be had just come. A feeling of exultation swept over our hero as he realized that the most perilous part of his daring attempt was passed in safety. lb iwever, everything was not to be as he had hoped for. For as he sat astride the partition preparing to lift the safe over, he partially lost his balance and in recovering it, scraped the toe of his boot against the iron work. Hearing the noise, the Bank President wheeled like a flash, taking in the scene at a glance, and realizing the immediate need of action, seized an inkwell and threw it at i ur hero ' s bead. Astonished beyond measure at the President ' s unreasonable atti- Tiro Hundred ' Sixty-three tude in the matter, our hero leaped lightly down and « itli the light of his dark lantern flashed full in the face .it his victim, crushed his skull with one blow of his brawny list, and made off over the partition and through a rear window and thus 1. 1 the gn mnd. Then began a never-to-be-forgotten chase. Tucking the big safe neatly under his right arm he sprang into the saddle, and putting spurs to his horse, made off down the canon. The crowd in the neighborhood of the hank lost no time m giving chase. With the mob in hot pursuit our hero turned his horse towards the rendezvous on the peak of the river ' s side. Thinking thus to elude hi? pursuers, lie made for the top of the peak. The crowd, nothing daunted. began the ascent. Non-plussed, our hero cast about for a means of escape. At this point fortune favored him for the moment, for just at that time far up the stream appeared a high conical iceberg floating towards him. Now it was that our hero ' s wonderful mastery of the lariat stood him in good stead. Seizing the lasso from the saddle, with a dextrous swing he encircled the top of the ice- berg with the loop and secured the other end to a nearby tree. No sooner was this accomplished than his pursuers hurst upon him. Again gathering the safe under his arm. he quickly crawled out on the rope which swung over the yawn- ing chasm, and made his way safely to the iceberg. One of the more daring of the posse attempted to follow him and made the center of the rope just as Bloody Bill gained the iceberg. Looking hack over the rope his quick eye lit upon the form of the approaching man swinging midway between the iceberg and the peak, and with fiendish laugh he cut the rope and dashed his pursuer to the cruel rocks below. Then a diabolical impulse suddenly seized his brain and twice more his Colts belched its fatal tire and the two remaining of the posse hit the dust and followed their more daring leader to the black torrent below. Depositing his precious burden at the mouth of the cave he slips to the water ' s edge to wash all evidences of his crime from his gory hands. Hardly had he finished when a thundering rumble strikes his ear. He turns like a flash ami the blood freezes his veins. He had not reckoned with the captive maiden whom he had left bound in his cave preserved for a fate worse than death and who at this point, having wormed her way to a position just back of the safe, with one frantic push dislodges it and starts it downward on its death dealing course. With a blood-curdling shriek Bloody liill makes one fruitless effort to spring from the path of the oncoming mass of steel, but all in vain. With one fearful crash they disappear together in the raging flood. Young Alcbie White ' s a fusser of ' renown; ' This lad, be came from ' Dear ( ld Fairmont Town.

Two Huiidrt l and SUri j ns Retrospections of a Senior A. B. C. Jacobs. Fellow-members of the Class : Throughout the years that are past and gone we have convened together upon divers and other occasions, for the purpose of considering vast and import- ant questions. Some of these have been wise and some otherwise. e have never failed to arrive at the same definite and unanimous conclusion, provided the meeting lasted long enough, namely that of adjournment. During this year we have met from time to time, and in our meetings we have endured sieges of taffy and sandwiches. We have met and passed through many trying ordeals an 1 experiences together and alone. We have been pasteurized and ice-creamated. The ever changing, ceaseless moving pictures have delighted us, and helped us draw nearer to each other and to the end of our college days. In the face of all this we have learned at these meetings many things, having had hurled into our very teeth the Vinegar Bug, a late scientific invention, which is bound to revo- lutionize the very face of Nature. We feel that there is yet much to be done. I wish to speak upon some of the values of a college training and how it wdl help nne to see a little more clearly. Xn one can doubt but the student who has passed through the intricacies of Fourth Term Algebra, survived the perplexities of German articles and grammar, felt the soothing and hypnotic effects of Psychology, or delved deeply into the realms of Philosophy, is a broader, bigger and better person for having endured these subjects. As a result of this training the poor graduate will be more able to precipitate into all the beauties of Nature from the loftiest mountain to the most humble valley as well as a man prepossessed of indigence. In addi- tion to this while thrilling transports will crown his view and rosy hours allure liis sanguinary youth, he will be able to raise his mind up to the laws of Nature, incompressible as they are. and view the lawless storm that kindleth the tre- mendous roaring thunder that fireth up the dark and rapid lightning and causeth it to flv through the intensity of space which belches forth those awful and sublime meteors that mil through the unfathomable regions of fiery hemispheres. )r somet imes he may be seated in some lovely retreat beneath the shadowy shades of an umbrageous tree, at whose venal foot flows some limping stagnant stream and gather about him his wife and orphan children. He will then be able to take a retrospective view upon the diagram of futurity and cast his eye like a flashing meteor down through the dim vistas of the oblivious past. Here seated in their midst, aggravated and exhaled by the dignity and independence coincident with honest poverty, his countenance irrigated with an intense glow of self-sufficiency and excommunicated knowdedge, he will turn to instruct bis little assemblage! He will endeavor to distil into their youthful minds useful lessons to guard their juvenile youth against vice and immortality. There on a clear sunny evening when the moon is shining forth in all her radiant beautv he will teach them the hist sediments of gastronomy by pointing Tiro Thnnh ' ,1 and Sixty-st n in to them the Bear, the Lion and the Dog-star, as well as main other fixed invisible consternations which are continually involving upon their axletrees through the blue dome above. From 1 1 11 — vast ethereal height he will dive with them to the verv bottom of unfathomable oceans, bringing from thence liquid treasures of earth and at . Then he will course with them on the imaginable wing of fane) through the boundlessness of unimaginable ether until, -welling into impalpable immensity, he is forever lost in the infinite radiation of hi- own genius. When such a state in hi- existence shall have approached towards that point of happiness which, like a crow perched upon the summit of some far distant mountain, some fisherman vainly strive- with no purpose to ensnare. He looks at the crow, the crow looks at him. they look at each other. But -till the moment he attempts to approach it it vanishes like the evanescent tint- of the rainbow, the cause of which the perspiring and astounding genius of Newton first enveloped and deplored. When the graduate ha- thus passed through all these vicissitudes nobly hi- training can not be -aid to have been m vain. DOWDY REMARKS. ( ).

Over seven hundred couples attended the Junior Prom this year. It. hall was tastefully decorated in myrtle and chrysanthemums, the scheme being carried even to the programs, on the back of which was a wreatli of myrtle interwoven with chrysanthemums. The parlors were a mass of flowers an 1 the halls profusely covered with pennants, the dance hall having a MAM- MOTH 1912 banner, which covered almost one entire wall.

Twelve games were played and nine games won, losing only one of two games to Vale and both games at Princeton. Professor Treudley made a short, spicy, very much-to-the point talk in chapel last term. The presence of the boys are so much needed in the Girls i ?) Dormitories at ' hio University that they are admitted to the eating department now. and it is probable that the Board of Trustees will later extend the room- ing privileges to them.

Here is a wealth of new style ideas, of fabric ideas, of tailoring ideas, in the new Spring Clothing for Young Men. Briskness and cheerful- ness seem quite the order for Spring and Summer wear. The dull and sombre, find but little favor with Fashion this year. The fabrics are decidedly mannish and of decided designs, without being Sporty or flashy. The exact models of WOMEN ' S SUITS AND COATS those that will be best fitted to your purse, taste and figure. IN DRESS GOODS AND SILKS the wide choice of weaves and colors and designs present most artistic and diverse combinations and unchecked sweep of originality. EXCLUSIVE MILLINERY but not extravagant prices. We ask you merely to view these Spring and Summer goods. Your own judgment will then endorse their attract- iveness — and fair pricing —and so induce eager purchasing. D. ZENNER COMPANY awcett, Jr.: — They wanted the cotton for their woolen mil XXXIV
