%m m Ar THE ATHENA Published by The Senior Class of Ohio University ATHENS, OHIO 1913 Volume VIII :ema This bool( is dedicated to our beloved class professor DR. HENRY W. ELSON as a slight testimonial of the affection and esteem in Tvhich he is held by the class of Nineteen Hundred and Thirteen. ATEIEMA Introduction A former President of the United States in an address to a body of students said in substance: Four years I spent in college, four years I was a soldier in the Civil War, four years I was a mem- ber of Congress, four years I was Governor of Ohio, four years Presi- dent of the United States and the happiest four year period of my life, that which is most delightful to look back upon (with the possible exception of the time spent in the army) is the period of my college days. With the class of 1913 these delightful days have almost gone. Here you came a few years ago from your scattered homes, strangers to one another and almost strangers to the great world about you. Here your eyes have been opened to many things. You have toiled over books and have, perhaps unconsciously, studied people. You have compared yourselves with your fellows and, it is hoped, to some extent have taken your own measurement. You have been trying to find, in the serious work of life that is before you, the place to which you most naturally belong. The college student may be removed for the moment from the great current of industrial and social life, but, like the man who climbs a mountain, his horizon is broadened and he learns more of the world about him than do those he leaves in the valley below. Col- lege life broadens the vision, corrects the judgment, enlarges and de- velops the intellect, increases one ' s knowledge of men and things, and adjusts one ' s relations to his environment as nothing else can do. Let us hope that every member of the class of ' 13 can give a receipt in full for all these benefits. Here you have tarried these four years past, but you must go away now. You have had a good time. Your days at college have been full of work and play, of serious toil and youthful jollity. Soon you will be scattered far and wide and in the future you will all meet together perhaps never again. As the years pass you will look back fondly and even more fondly to the days you spent here. You have all had your trials and disappointments, but they will seem smaller and smaller as the years recede; the lines that have divided you will grow dim and disappear; and at length your many experiences here will blend into a unit — the memory of a happy dream. That every member of this class may be truly successful in his or her life work and that in the end each one may hear the words. Well done thou good and faithful servant, is the sincerest prayer of your devoted Class Professor.

We ' ve climbed the Old North Hill; We ' vy ponies rode, and teachers fooled. And courted with a will. Now time for last good-byes has come: Our life at Old O. U. is past; No longer lordly seniors we. We ' re simply folks at last. But we ' ve been a very famous class, so famous that we feel sure you will want our history. Let me begin with some important data. There are about seventy members; fifty-eight Ohioans; one Roumanian; two West Virginians; one Pennsylvanian; two Nebraskans; one New Yorker; and one from far-off Canton, China. It is said that one reason why Americans are great, is because they are a blending of the people of all the strong nations of the world. Our class is proof of this statement. We are in descent nine Germans, three French-Irish, fourteen English, fifteen Scotch- Irish, one Irish, three French, ten German-English, three Scotch; three Welsh, three French-Dutch, one Jewess, one Chinese, and three Irish-German. Eighteen took their preparatory work at the Ohio University, while fifty-two graduated from High Schools. There are twenty-two Methodists, twenty-two Presbyterians, seven Disciples, one Jewess, two Lutherans two Baptists one United Brethren one Confucianist, one German Reformed. The average length of time spent at the Ohio University for each 1913 graduate is just 4.9 years. 65 atm: Nearly every profession will be enriched by the entrance thereto of some of our brilliant members. Thirty-one will teach, and think of what an advantage some of the young Americans will have, an ad- vantage unprecedented — the chance to have one of these thirty-one chosen teachers. Ten will enter business and through their efforts, cor- rupt business methods will be cleaned up. Two will be civil engineers, and now let the immortal Washington look to his honors. Two will be drawing supervisors and the schools they shall serve, can be traced in the next generation, no doubt, by a trail of famous artists. Three will be doctors whose work it will be to find and apply a specific for every human ill. Two will be chemists and from their skillful hands we may expect successes where the old alchemists failed — in finding the elixir of life. Three will be lawyers whose voices seem even now to be heard defending the weak and oppressed with eloquence suggest- ing Henry Clay and logic more conclusive than Daniel Webster ' s. Two will be horticulturists and they will surely rival Burbank; and by them, the high cost of living will be quickly solved. Thirty-one graduate in the Liberal Arts course; seventeen in Scientific; seven in Science of Education; three in Music; two in Art, and three in Civil Engineering. Twenty-nine are from the town; thirty from the country, and eleven from the city. All except five belong to the Young Men ' s or Young Women ' s Christian Association. In the literary societies there are twenty-one Athenians, eleven Philomatheans, seven Adelphians. There are three Alpha Gamma Deltas; two Alpha Xi Deltas, two Sigma Sigma Sigmas, six Aloquins, four Pi Beta Phis, five Beta Theta Pis, five Phi Delta Thetas, two Delta Tau Deltas, three Sigma Pis, and twenty-one Phrenocons. We have been the leaders in every college organization; in English, Science, and Teachers ' Clubs; Booklover ' s Club; Art and Chemistry Clubs; Der Deutsche Verein, the best members have been everywhere from the class of 1913. And every one wonders, pro- ne atm: fessors and students, what they will do without us in future years. In your great loss we would console you all by repeating: Lives of great men all remind us We may make our lives sublime. And departing leave behind us Foot-prints on the sands of time. We are the great men. We are leaving great examples of work and accomplishment behind us, which each future Ohio Univer- sity student may strive to emulate. Never has a class gone out from these college halls knowing so well its future occupations. Every member of 1913 knows exactly what he or she is going to do, and thus are we better fitted to do that work. Why, take the class of 1912 which imagined that they were the brightest class that could ever leave the University. At least fifty of them had to stay in summer school and there review the subjects which they expected to teach. And they were so aged! They should have been able to teach anything. The rest of the members of that class came back to college the next fall — they said for graduate work — but really in order that they might be identified with the much greater and more energetic class of 1913. Our average age is only twenty. And marriage? Well, fully one hundred fifty per cent of the class is going to be married and it ' s all fixed, too. Our girls are useful and attractive; our men are young, strong, and handsome; and that explains it all. We are not like other classes, old and unattractive, therefore, we did not have to do as others (for instance, 1912) wander around old, lonely, aimless, wondering if we ' d ever get a chance. In no line did we neglect our education. In the social world, as in everything else, we were accomplished. We always came for- ward and gracefully took our part. We began when we were Freshmen. That year (1909) there was a very successful Freshman dance and a party at the home of our beloved class Pro- fessor, Dr. Claassen. There was the picnic when we went to our des- 67 I nation in automobiles. Of course I am giving only the big social successes of the class — the big events of the college world, events that will always be remembered and which other classes may only envy. No one will ever be able to give a Junior Prom such as ours. Who can ever forget the little bronze programs with the silver O and chain, the excellent luncheon, and above all the brilliant company which gathered there. In the spring we gave the annual picnic to the seniors, the class of 1912. As usual it was a great success. All of the members of that class looked with envy upon the grace and ease with which we served the picnic feast and wished that as they left college halls they had not received such a one-sided education, that in addition to their alleged excellence in book-learning they had some of our social grace. Then in our senior year, one of the best things to be remembered was the party at Dr. Elson ' s home, the first time we were entertained at our latest class professors ' s. In intellectual pursuits, we were even more active than in social affairs, for we believe that it is primarily for the intellectual education that one should go to college. We were well represented in every scholarship organization. The leaders in Der Deutsche Verein al- ways came from the class of 1913. The most proficient members in the Science and English Clubs came from this same class. What more can I say as to our activity in athletics than what I have already said concerning other departments of our college educa- tion? The star players on the ball teams have come from 1913, from the time we were Sophomores. There was Captain Gibson, and the stars, Rodg. Jones, Jim White, Bump Jones, Dutch Voigt; Si Mickelthwait, Nutting and many more. Then in indoor athletics, who won more points than Fry and Case? In class athletics we usually won and if we ever did allow a game to go against us, it was never because we couldn ' t have won if we would, but because our generosity prompted us to encourage the weaker brethren by allowing them the pleasure of an occasional victory. To prove how active we all were in religious life of the college, it need only to be said that the Christian Associations were never in as prosperous condition as in 1912-13 when the presidents of both were ath: members of this class. Take all in all, the only real room for doubt as to the religious character of the class is the feeling of uncertainty as to whether we weren ' t a little too good. What of our relations to the Professors? Well, being the class we were, they had no trouble, only pleasure in having us as pupils. Of course, sometimes our grades fell as low as 95 or 98 per cent., but that was not because the Professors did not feel that they ought to give us a hundred. We were leading in every college activity and they feared that it would discourage other students if we should openly show our lead in everything. A few times some Professors failed to see things from our view point but they secretly wished that they had. Now, there was Dr. Hoover, a few times he withheld credit slips in Trigo- nometry or College Algebra, simply in order to have the pleasure of our company for another term, and so inspire his younger folks to better work by example of our great knowledge. Thus did we help Dr. Hoover. There is only one thing that will ever worry the Pro- fessor of Mathematics in connection with this class. We asked him to become our class professor when we were Freshmen. And at that time he did not realize the great honor we would bring his name. Any- way, the main reason we asked him was because the members of every other class had terrorized us with tales of imagined horrors of Fourth Term and Trig — how they could hardly pass. We thought that as nur class Professor he could help us over this stumbling block. But what a foolish fear it was! Fourth Term was a pudding for us all, and Trig was huckleberry pie. Soon after Dr. Hoover refused this proffered honor, we elected Dr. Claassen our Class Professor. He at once saw what an extraordinary class we were and very gladly ac- cepted. For three years we had this German sage and his lovely wife in our midst. They entertained us royally, gave us good advice and were always interested in every member of the class. In our senior year Dr. Claassen left the University and in his place we elected Dr. Elson. Once we made a wise and successful choice. And so although Dr. Elson was honored by our choice of him, we, too, were honored and helped by his interest and friendship. If all of the Professors had only realized our true worth as did Dr. Elson and Dr. Claassen; but there were a few who could. 69 atme: There, for instance, was Dr. Mercer. After we had taken our final examination in Senior Geology, he said Why, like enuf I didn ' t know any class could do so well in examinations as did this class! You see that he was one that didn ' t or couldn ' t understand our bril- liancy and found it out only when it was too late for him to enjoy it. There are always a few events which occur in college commonly termed pernicious activities. Now in our four years there were such activities, and because they were a part of the college life the leaders were from our class. There was the time the cannon on the campus was wheeled into action and with its explosion shook every house in Athens and broke windows all around the green. Every body knows that the leader must have been from the class of 1913. There was the time we all planned to go to the ball game at Delaware and our honored President opposed the move. All remember the runners which appeared next day and demonstrated conclusively that Prexy was in the wrong. And thus again not only because it was right but because also it was something doing some of our class helped to do it. There also were the bills giving the true history of the class of 1912. Of course we did it. Thus might I go on and on telling about our virtues and ac- complishments; our scholarship and social successes; our youth, grace and beauty. Never has there been such a class as ours and never can there be such a class again and Wisdom shall die with us. We only hope that the later classes as they come and go, wil ' not be dazzled when they view our achievements or feel discouraged when they hear of our fame, but will take courage and strength there- from and strive toward the higher standards which we have set. So we bid farewell to our beloved professors who on the whole have been so good, and kind, and patient with us; and as we leave the dear old college halls, about which cluster so many precious memories we can only hope that the succeeding classes will gain as much love, loyalty, and enthusiasm for dear old O. U. as we shall carry away. In this particular alone they may even hope to be the equals of the ever-famous class of 1913. And so farewell, a long farewell, to all our greatness. 70 wg ATMEMA 9 . ®glSS5$6 ATMEMA 1 .v£ atihie: Mary Ethel Shuman, Baby, Aloquin. Resolved to live with all her might while she does live.

The other classes are kept from the fullest enjoyment of college life by certain unavoidable cir- cumtances. The Freshmen are inexperienced, unsophisticated, and do not un- derstand college life. There is, to be sure, a refrshing greenness about them, but this trait is overcome by the beginning of the third year in college. The Sophomores are beginning to become adapted to their surroundings, but the period of adjustment, and the opinion they hold of their own superior wisdom keep them from living up to their high privileges. But by the time the Junior year is reached these necessary maladies of youth have been safely passed, and the student is ready to make the most of his surroundings. Even the Senior, though usually envied and venerated, has his troubles. He is nearing the time when he must face life ' s stern realities and mUst think of next year ' s job. There is the thesis, the weighty matters to be discussed at class meetings, and worst of all, the Athena troubles. But the Junior Year! This is the supremely happy time of the whole course, for this fortunate class is past early troubles and has a period of com- parative peace before the last strenuous year. This is the time when literary and oratorical talent is displayed at its best, when power as a student is developed, when class spirit manifests itself, when firm friendships are formed, when fatal cases are developed. The events of the Junior Year have a strong influence on the future. The Class of 1914 has done itself proud in scholarship, in athletics, in all phases of college life. The flag rush with the Class of ' 13 in 1911, the Tug-of-War of the same year, football, baseball, and basket ball victories all show the prowess of the Juniors. Fortunate indeed are we Juniors in our Class Professor. Dr. Wilson, who has given us inspiring talks and entertained us royally at his home. Under the Presidencies of Mr. Falloon and Mr. White, the class has been closely organized, and the monthly meetings have been occasions of pleasure and profit. Loyalty and co-operation are two chief factors in the success of the Class of 1914, and this spirit is on the increase. We have tried to make the most of our Junior Year in O. U. and it has indeed been a year containing much for all of us. Our courage is high and we have a confident hope that the future will be a fulfillment of our worthiest aspirations. 80 ath: Sophomore History When the students of other years returned to college in the fall of 1911, they found that ever-present, ever-green and ever-numerous body of Freshmen which always marks the opening of every college year. With a glance of dis- gust, or perhaps a kindly word of direction to the intricate maze of class rooms, they passed us by thinking that we would not give any further trouble. Alas! How ignorant people are to real genius! The first great thing abou t the class was its great numbers. In fact there were so many of us that even now in our Sophomore year no one has ever been able to number us with figures. Green though we seemed, we knew that organ- ization was necessary so that our energies might be best directed for the mutual good of class and college, so with Blaine Goldsberry as our president, we started out to conquer everything at old O. U. As to our success, ah! Reader, read on. One need only to glance at the athletic records. Football was an easy victory. Basket Ball an unquestionable success, while track, baseball and tennis all showed us victors. The haughty Junior of this year may say, But, Sopho- more, you omit the annual Tug-of-War. Why not there proclaim a victory? Cruel fates to thus expose our only weakness, our one equality with yourselves. While the records do not show us champions, all those who witnessed the affair can not denv that we would have won if the rope had been shorter. Undoubtedly our attempted breaking in the class of 1916 would be classed with athletics for surely strength was important. But before we had fully accomplished this, the elements consisting of Prexy. police and rain made the task impossible. Our class early became aware that it would be very selfish to confine our intellects to any one college organization and to-day the most powerful members of various clubs, literary societies, religious organizations and fraternities are members of the class of 1915. While we exercised great care in developing the physical and literary side of our natures, we by, no means neglected the social. True, our functions were not many but quality made up for quantity and every one who was at our two dancing parties can surely speak of their quality. It is surely with great kindness and sympathy that we wish to speak of our most excellent class professor. Prof. Treudley. He has been very faithful at our class meetings, always bringing words of cheer and pointing out the higher things in life to us. No one could have shown more interest and while circum- stances in his home have been such as to make any entertainment impossible, we feel that he has more than recompensed us. Our Sophomore year is about to close with only successes. Our president, Mr. Eccles, has been faithful not only as an officer but as a member who has brought honor to the class. What our Junior year has in store for us is only conjecture but the oracle has already proclaimed a wonderful celebration for 1915, the year in which we graduate. 83 atjh: The House of Golden Windows Once there dwell a maiden In a castle vast and old Whose great windows every morning Caught the sun and turned to gold. Far away across the valley In a cottage lived a boy Who would watch those magic windows Flash and fade with breathless joy. Often he would pause from playing, When the sun was swinging low. Dreaming of that lovely vision Gleaming with the sun ' s first glow. What could be its wondrous secret? Was it born of earth or sky? And he whispered to the sunset, I will follow by and by. Thus it was one day toward evening, He drew near the castle gate And the little maiden who answered To his knocking, bade him wait. But with eagerness he whispered, Let me see those windows rare That look golden in the sunlight When the Morn comes up the stair. Then the maiden also bewildered. Said, You must have lost your way. There ' s the house of gold en windows! See, I watch them every day. As the boy turned, filled with wonder. With the setting sun ' s last gleam. He beheld his far-off windows Brighten with his golden dream. So in life, the joys we envy In our neighbor ' s life so bright Will be surely found abounding In our own life ere the night. And the house of golden windows Was not meant for one alone. Other lives have joy and sorrow Blessings like unto our own.

But our hearts were filled with high hopes and our minds entertained great schemes and possibilities for the future. Soon we became acquainted, and realizing the need of organization, met in the Y. W. C. A. room, October 8, where we proceeded, after a stormy session, to organize the class under the leadership of Branson A. Walpole as president. A high degree of class spirit was shown from the beginning and no- where could there be found one who was ashamed to acknowledge he was a Sixteener although we were beaten in football by the Sophs, October 21, and with clubs, bricks, etc., in the hands of the same bunch that night. However, let us remark here, that the Sophs found out that the Freshies had the back- bone and could handle brickbats, clubs and fists as well as they. On the following evening we met in Music Hall, and after a plea for peace and aibitration by Prexy, we proceeded to elect Foxy Atkinson, Class Pro- fessor, and then marched, two hundred strong, through a pouring rain tc his heme to notify him of the event. But still we seemed Fresh and the police picked out three of our smallest ones and entertained them for two or three hours in the county jail, until two noble Seniors came to our assistance and provided the where with necessary, for their release. Rather a stormy beginning it is true, but we have established a precedent that will cause our class to be remembered through countless ages. We have won the championship in basket ball and have good material for a baseball team this spring. Our colors are Maroon and White — our motto, Boutez en avant — our future, bright and prosperous looking, and we feel that four years hence, others, in speaking of the Freshman class of 1913, will be moved to repeat, with all due respect to Joaquin Miller: It grew, a starlit flag unfurled! It grew to be Times ' burst of dawn. It gained a world; it gave that world Its grandest lesson; ' On sail on!

As no one ques- tioned the advisability of this project, in the fall of nineteen hundred and eleven, this plan became a reality and many a fair co-ed could be seen with those large black note-books in hand hurrying towards the Domestic Science quarters which then consisted of a dwelling-house, remodeled to suit the demands of the department. This year these girls have attained the dignified position of Home Economics seniors while a much larger class have entered the ranks of freshmen. This increase in numbers has made it necessary to move into more commodious quarters and at present, the department occupies the second floor of Old Central Building. The house is also retained for the senior class and the professional work in the course. Our prospects for the future are still brighter, there having been made an appropriation of $45,000 for a new industrial building to be erected near the campus. With this goodly sum as a nucleus, the re- mainder is practically assured. A new Home Economics club has been organized which will be placed on a scholarship basis. This club hopes to equal the clubs of the other various departments of the institution. Although this phase of education is practically a new one, the demand is acknowledged. It fills a long-felt want in the education of women. The department at this university although new, is a growing one and bids fair to be one of the most attractive forces in bringing students to the university. ath: Seniors Completing Course Leading to De- gree of Bachelor of Science in Education Zellah Fern Atkinson Zanesville Ethel Vida Boyles North Levvisburg Lewis E.

For many years the Electrical Association has been a live wire among the organizations of Ohio University. Organized for the pur- pose of advancing engineering knowledge, and bringing the students of the department into synchronism, it has, within recent years, ex- perienced marvelous growth, if not in numbers, at least in quality of its programs. Regular meetings are held weekly and well prepared lectures are given by the members on popular engineering problems. The advantages of such an organization cannot be overestimated. Here the student is brought within a magnetic field of such intensity and variation as to increase his capacity for inductance, and start alternating currents of thought of such frequency and power factor that, flowing through the solenoid of his experience produce men of maximum efficiency. The thought currents of various phases are so transformed and rectified that mental hysteresis is reduced to a minimum. In short, the student soon learns whats watt dynes every day, and is able to cross any resistance or obstacle in life by the knowledge of Wheatstones bridge. 107 8f9S3S S ATMEMA 9 atm: Department of Civil Engineering Class of 1913 Eugene J. Voigt, Leo Schaeffler, Arthur Lynn, Paul Gilllilan, Frank Core, Benjamin Endsley. The department of Civil Engineering was established by the action of the university trustees in 1904. The beginning was small and occupied but two rooms on the third floor of East Wing. With this small beginning and through the persistent efforts of Professor L. J. Addicott, the college has grown to occupy nearly all of the East Wing, which has been remodeled especially for its use. The course in Civil Engineering covers a period of two years and embraces those subjects most useful to the working engineer. Spe- cial emphasis is given to practical work in land, railroad and topo- graphical surveying, drafting, mapping, computation and designing of bridges, etc., and to the study of leading engineering projects of the day. Many of the students in this course, by taking advance work in physics, mathematics and the modern languages, are able in two years to complete a four year course in one of the leading technical schools. The department library is located on the third floor of East Wing. It contains one thousand volumes that cover a wide range of engineering subjects. There are three draughting rooms with fifty tables for drawing and mapping. The instrument equipment is large and complete in every detail. no PIANOFORTE RECITAL BY Glady Van Valey of the class of 1913 Assisted by Don McVay and String Trio. 1st Violins, J. N. Hizey, J. D.

Its aim is to develop personality, cultivate the speaking voice and train the powers of expression. The courses cover a period of two years and are made up of subjects most profitable to those desiring to teach, to do platform work, or to enter any of the professions. They include advance work in English Literature and Composition, and the study of Shakespearean plays, masterpieces of modern Oratory, the principles of Argumentation and Debating, and Interpretative Read- ing, two private lessons per week, or one hundred sixty for the entire course in order to graduate. Trie Public Speaking course requires original orations and ex- temporaneous speaking on stated subjects and is required for one se- mester, of all Juniors who are working for A. B., and B. S., degrees. The O. U. Dramatic Club presents one standard play each year. This club is open to all students in the University, and great inter est is taken in its productions. The Reformation of Bob, a genuine play with a good moral uplift, was given in the college auditorium, March 14, 1913, and delighted the large and enthusiastic audience. The Oratorical Association is open to all students regularly en- rolled for twelve or more hours ' work per week, in Ohio University. The object is to promote a higher standard of literary excellence in this institution, through annual contests with other colleges and universities, in debate and oratory. We were well pleased to win from our sister institution, Miami University, March 15th, on the Commission Forrr. of Government question, which was very ably discussed at home, at Denison, and at Miami Universities, on the same evenings. The question was so well defended by the home teams in each case, that the visitors were defeated, all negative debaters in the triangular meet receiving the deciding vote. 117 g AT1EMA ATEIEMA SglS P The O. U. Dramatic Club The O. U. Dramatic Club was organized in the winter term of 1910. It was first known as the Thahan Dramatic Club, with an en- rollment of eleven members. Since that time the club has grown and flourishes under the direction of Prof. Pierce and his assistant. Miss Mane A. Monfort, so that there is now over thirty active members. The club was organized for the purpose of making a study of plays, and to bring out certain latent powers, to develop the art of imperson- ation, acquaint the cast with stage settings, and the art of costuming and making-up to represent characters true to life. The club is open to all students in the University, and meets every Monday evening of the college year. Some of the plays that have been presented are: Sunset ; Betsy Baker ; A Box of Monkeys ; Old Acre Folks ; Esmeralda ; Hon. Bill Hick ' s Marriage ; Reformation of Bob. Officers for 1912-13.

To Live Each Day Anew The daylight fades — Across the hills the lengthening shadows fall. Within, a restless spirit yearns. And unto my Maker calls: So little for thee have I done, dear Lord, So small are the gifts I bear; No deeds can I bring to Thee, My King, Which are worthy Thy love and care. The twilight deepens — The shadows fade, the sunset rays grow dim, When from my soul the sadness falls. Dispelled by the voice of Him; In giving the cup to the least of these, In taking a stranger in. In clothing the needy, feeding the poor. These things dids ' t thou do for Him. The night comes on — The shadows melt and into darkness fall; A peace steals o ' er my yearning soul — Sweet gift from the God of all. For when we .strive each day to live As He would have us do, We praise his great love, which gives to us, To live each day anew. Jennie F.

Shafer, Ex-Officio Prof. D. J. Evans R. L. Morton, Ex-Officio Prior to October 2, 1890, there was no definite, permanent, organization of men in Ohio University designed to purify the uni- versity ' s moral atmosphere. At that time, the records tell us a per- manent organization was effected with twenty-eight charter members including several of the faculty. Twenty-three years have marked a great increase in growth and power in the Y. M. C. A. Members of the faculty who have been here longest say that it has met with success in endeavoring To promote growth in grace and Christian fellowship among its members, and aggressive Christian work especially by and for stu- dents; to train them for Christian service; and to lead them to 125 atm: devote their lives to Jesus Christ, not only in distinctively religious callings, but also in secular pursuits, quoting from the Constitution. For eight years it has been necessary to employ a salaried General Secretary who exercises general supervision over the asso- ciation ' s various activities. Ohio University is one of the six Ohio colleges whose associations employ general secretaries. Yet there are thirty-three college associations in the state. The general secre- taries to date are as follows: Willard A. Guy, 1905- ' 06. Frank L. Johnson, l906- ' 08 W. E. Alderman, l908- ' 09 Harry L. Ridenour. 1909- ' 12 Robert L. Morton, 1912- ' 13 With a cabinet of fourteen men looking after the various phases of its activities, w ; th eighty per cent, of the men registered in the university as members, with a delegation at most of the important con- ferences and with an annual budget of over seven hundred dollars, the association is realizing the hopes of its pioneer advocates. Ten men represented the association at the Summer Conference at Eagles ' Mere, Pennsylvania, June, 1912. This was the largest delegation from any college in the state of Ohio. The Conference Loan Fund, of which several hundred dollars will be available this year, makes it comparatively easy for O. U. men to avail themselves of the privileges of the summer conference. The Ohio Christian Leaders ' Conference held at Otterbein University, Westerville, Ohio, in October, 1912; was attended by A. P. Fulwider and R. L. Morton. Mr. Murch the newly elected president, attended the Presi- dents ' Conference at Ohio Wesleyan University, March, 1913. Standing for what is honest and clean and taking the Christ for a model and guide in its activities — administrative, educational, de- votional, and service — the Y. M. C. A. confidently looks forward to an influence which shall be more widely extended and more richly blessed. 126 at: Young Women ' s Christian Association CABINET Carrie Ricketts President Virginia Crisenberry Vice President Ethel Shuman Secretary Mary Evans Treasurer Nelle Copeland Devotional Chairman Ethel Boyles Bible Chairman Zella Knoll Missionary Chairman Virginia Crisenberry Membership Chairman Key Wenrick Social Chairman Hazel Reed Intercollegiate Chairman Nina Browning Social Service Chairman Bertha Buxton Finance Chairman Anna Pickering Nominating Chairman ADVISORY COMMITTEE Mrs. E.

The purpose of the Young Women ' s Christian Association is to broaden and deepen the social, intellectual, and spiritual natures of the girls of the uni- versity. It endeavors to have each girl to accept Jesus Christ as her personal friend and constant guide, to have her life bounded by Christ. The local association is affiliated with the National oung Women ' s Chris- tian Association and through the National Board with the World Association, and also with the World ' s Student Christian Federation. Thus it may be seen that membership in the association really means more than we sometimes realize. Vet we feel that the help which the association tries to give is rightly valued and appreciated by the large membership of the present year. Last June the East Central Students Summer Conference was held at Eaglesmere in the mountains of eastern Pennsylvania. Carrie Ricketts, Nelle Copeland, Ola Strong, and Nina Browning were delegates. The Christian Leaders ' Conference at Westerville, Ohio, in October was attended by Virginia Crisenberry, Mabel Nesbett, Majel Laurence and Bertha Buxton. The work of the local association is carried on under the direction of the cabinet and committees of the association. The devotional meetings this year have been well attended and exceptionally interesting. The Bible Committee reports more than one hundred girls in the eight organizations and two curriculum Bible classes. Besides the work in Mission study the association, through the Missionary Committee, for a number of years has supported Shona, one of the famine waifs of India, now almost grown to womanhood. Last year we took up in addition the support of a Chinese orphan girl aged four. This year we added to our list of Committees that of Social Service and began work by assisting with the Sunday School at the Children ' s Home. The Membership Committee reports almost three hundred active members. With the addition of the honorary and alumni membership, the figures go beyond three hundred and fifty. The regular 1 . W. social functions of the college year are the reception to all the girls at the opening of the first semester, the membership banquet in January and the fruit spread in the spring. The Twilight Recital Program for this year consists of five Recitals. An Organ Recital by Claud C. Pinney; a Miscellaneous program given by Miss Estella Moss, Mr. Chas. Schaeffler, Miss Lucile Burson, Miss Sylvia Moore, Miss Justina Hartsock, and Misses Ann Hughes and Pauline Stewart; a Violin and Song Recital by Mr. Don McVay and Miss Austa Speck; a Recital by the College of Music under the direction of Prof. Mc Vay ; and a play by the O. U. Dramatic Club. 129 Sf S SSfiE AT1EMA SglgSllSiS Athenian Literary Society In the year 1812. there was organized at Ohio University the Zelathias Literary Society. For some unknown reason the name was soon changed to the Polemic Society. To strengthen this society, it was determined to alter its form, so on June 19. 1819. a constitution was adopted and the name changed to that of the Athenian Literary Society. Such is the origin of the present society of the same name. In 1836 the society secured a state charter. So much interest was taken in the work from the first that. September of the same year of its organization, an exhibition was held in the Court House. In its early days, there was instituted a system of graduating its members. The society was divided into four classes and when the members had done the re- quired amount of work, they were presented with a diploma. The first class of three members was graduated 1 822. Its sister organization, the Philomathean Society, was formed 1 822 by a group of students, part of whom were Athenians. In 1825 arrangements were made for a contest with the Philomatheans. This was the first of those contests which were to be productive of so much spirit and literary interest be- tween the two societies. In its early history, it was the practice to elect prominent men to honorary membership. Along with these distinguished names, there were found about two thousand others who received their early training in the Athenian Literary Society. True, the connection of some has been transitory, yet for the most part it was sufficient to beget that feelirg of interest and loyalty which is always aroused by the mere mention of the well remembered name and motto. The past year has been a very successful one. For the second time in succession the annual contest brought many laurels to the society. With such a record behind let us this year demonstrate the excellence of the Athenian Literary Society. Then may the future members imbibe this spirit and make the Society ' s success an annual occurrence. 131 Spgl P S ATMEMA atme: The Philomathean Literary Society The Philomathean Literary Society of Ohio University has had a notable past. On January 18, 1822, the authentic record of her history begins. Since then she has been a strong force in making famous The Historic College of the Old North West. Throughout our country the high merits of the society have been recog- nized. Proudly cherished in her archives are letters of acceptance to honorary membership from Daniel Webster, Henry Clay, Horatio Seymour, Martin Van Buren, Edward Everett, Horace Greely, and a multitude of other leading edu- cators and statesmen of the United States. In all these letters is expressed ap- preciation of the high honor thus bestowed upon the senders. On public questions, Philos always have been far ahead of their times. As early as 1824, in their debates they had settled the questions: Should uni- versal suffrage be allowed in the government of the United States? and Would it be policy for the United States to increase the duties upon foreign articles of importation? Even now many of our leading citizens are not fully decided on these questions. The members of the Philomathean Society always have had a lofty con- ception of the purpose of a literary society. Her earliest records say that de- bates were warmly discussed, and that the orations were delivered much to the gratification of the society. And the results of recent contests with her sister societies show that Philos still excel in debate and oratory. From the date of the founding of the society to the present, she has had on her roll the names of the most energetic, progressive students of the university. By consistently abiding by her motto, Diligence is everything, her members have achieved and will maintain for her a foremost rank among the organizations at Ohio University. 133 g5fg ATE 2WV The Adelphian Literary Society This society was founded in the early part of September, 1909, to pro- vide better literary training to the increasing number of students, who are entering Ohio University each year. The membership of the two old societies was too large and the faculty thought it wise to have three literary societies at Ohio University. A number of students met in a class-room in Ewing Hall and the society was organized and planned, similar to that of the older societies. They were finally permitted to meet in Music Hall, where they have continued the good work, so nobly begun. The Adelphian ideal is expressed by the preamble of their constitution. A man ' s value to himself and to society depends to a considerable extent upon his ability to express forcibly in public his convictions. This society has made good and many excellent programs have been rendered. These programs alone are the best indication of the high rank of the society, since they are characterized by faithful and conscientious per- formance of duty. The success of the society is due to the loyal workers; as for shirkers — well they are few. The girls now constitute more than one-half of the present membership and the society would not be nearly so productive of good results were it not for ' heir presence. The aim of this society is not literary training alone, but one of its choicest features is social culture and enjoyment. The Adelphians now reach the hundred mark and their prospects for further success and attainment are very favorable. The society ' s colors are pink and olive green. We can have no better motto than, To be, rather than to seem. 135 M B? ATHENA 3 ath: English Club Way back in the early history of the University this club was staggering along under the burdensome title of The Columbiad. Just what that name signified no one now can tell, and it is considered an early proof of the strong vitality of the club that the name was not fatal to its existence. As early as twenty years ago its organization was flourishing, and having discarded the handicap of its former name was achieving a prominent place among the student organiza- tions. At present the club is made up of a varying number of members selected from the best students of English and Literature. The month- ly meetings are held at the home of Dean E. W. Chubb. At these meetings two or three members report with original poems or stories. During the past year the range of the productions was extraordinary. The poems were of all types from stately odes to iingling love-songs, and impressionistic lyrics. The stories were equally varied. Some were plainly nature-foking ; others asalt with tragic human themes. Murder and love and other such topics were handled with rare skill. Some of the productions of this club have been declined by the leading periodicals of the day. We pride ourselves, however, upon the fact that for years the winners of literary contests at the University have been members of the club. If they were not members at the time when they won their prizes; they were immediateyl elected to membership. The great meeting of the year occurs in May. At this meeting each member is detained to entertain a friend, and every member of the club is expected to respond with a masterpiece of verse or prose. The grand occasion this year called forth literature of an unusually high order. The visitors were unanimous in their approval, and compli- mented the club in very flattering terms. After listening to a poem one man said he had never heard anything like it before. A lady said that during the first part of the evening she had been troubled with a slight headache, but that at the close of the exercises all she had was nervous prostration. 137 m gg ATHENA ■ V ' . e2B £m 9£?. atme: The Booklovers ' Club The Booklovers ' Club of Ohio University was organized October 18, 1911, n response to a growing demand that students of English be given an oppor- tunity to study the great masterpieces of thought in every field of literature. The membership is limited to sixteen men who become members through the invitation of the club. Provision has been made whereby graduate-members Joing college work may remain active members in addition to the sixteen under- graduate members. Dr. Wilson is literary adviser and the meetings are held in his class room and under his direction, the second Tuesday of each month. Each member is assigned a subject for the coming year as soon as he presents his subject for the present year. Thus he has a year in which to make a study of some literary masterpiece or some phase of literature. New members are assigned subjects immediately upon being received into the club. The work for 1912-13 has been on the great epics of the world. Dr. Wilson addresses the club once a year on some special subject. The organization is distinctively one for scholarly work, and each member is given ample time for the thorough investigation of his subject. The following is a list of the members with the subjects discussed through- out the year: Dr. H. R. Wilson Bhagavad-Gita C. T. Buell, Vice President The Arthurian Legends C. E. Skinner Beowulf S. S.

It was not intended as a literary society but rather as a training school for literary societies. The helpful suggestions and criticisms given by Professor Pierce at each meeting, render it possible for those who are members to have a thorough knowledge of the principles of public speaking. The association meets every two weeks on Wednesday evening. The officers are: Homer V. Chernngton, President; C. A. Plyley, Vice President; J. M. Henry, Secretary; C. E. Cole, Treas- urer; Dr. H. W. Elson, Faculty Treasurer; Prof. H. R. Pierce, Corresponding Secretary. The Executive Council are Harry De La Rue, Charles E. Skinner, Herman H. Young, J. O. Grimes, S. S. Shafer, Prof. C. M. Copeland, Dr. E. W. Chubb and Dr. H. R. Wilson. 141 pgl g AT HE MA Sgg Bfg ATIEMA USt g German Club President Matilda Ostermayer Vice President J. W. Buchanan Secretary Helen Phillips Treasurer Essie Greisheimer There is no short cut to speaking a language and there is no royal road to it but hard work. ' ' Only earnest and conscientious effort will bring the re- sults desired; and the student, beginning the study of German with the set aim to do his best, cannot but succeed. It is and always has been the aim of this university to give its students the best instruction possible. From the start, German reading and conversation is made a feature of the class-room study, thus avoiding as much as possible the mechanical routine of translating. In training the eye as well as the ear, the student will gradually feel his power over the language grow and acquire the most essential elements in the study of German, Sprachgefriechl, and the joy of mastering the foreign tongue will ir.cite him to greater efforts. From the second year on, the language of the class-room is German almost exclusively and entirly so in the more advanced classes. The student in Meisterwerke des Mittetalters, a course given in the second semester, used a text book written en- tirely in German, and the lectures of that class were given in that language. A great and effective help to the work done in the class-room is the German Club. Every student, having completed one year of German, and doing his work faithfully and conscientiously, is invited to join the club. The membership is constantly increasing and a keen interest in the work of the club is manifested. The club meets the first Saturday of each month in the house of the Professor of German where a program in German is given in which all the members are requested to take part in turn. This program consists of songs, poems, reading of original stories, rendering scenes from dramas, dialogues and lectures on Ger- man life and costume — all in German. Active work in the club greatly strengthens the student ' s sense of responsibility, fires his ambition and materially increases his knowledge of the German language. After the program a social hour is enjoyed. It is the custom to give a German entertainment every year. The program this year was of an unusual nature consisting of a German comedy, special music, and representations of incidents in novels read in class, accompanied by ex- planatory reading. 143 e§E aM ATiEMA --$mm atm: Klein — Deutschland Motto : Frisch-Frei-Froechlich-Fromm. German Studenten-Verein. Leader: Dr. F. Von Riethdorf. The German St.-V. purposes to cultivate interest in and enthusiasm for the German language from the very outset. Any student of Dr. Von Riethdorf ' s German classes for beginners is entitled to become a member of the St.-V. ; his advanced students, however, are excluded from holding a membership in the club. The St.-V. counts nearly seventy members; and fees are charged. The meetings are held once a month, and the students are the guests of the Doctor. The program at those meetings is carried out in German and consists of a variety of subjects such as singing of German student songs, recitals of poems, readings, short speeches, plays, talks by the professor, and over Christmas the St.-V. gave a public entertainment in German, the main features of the program being the German play: Rede stets die Wahrheit, (Always speak the truth). The following persons took part in the play: Herr A. A. Sayre, Herr W. Kaler, Herr C. E. Wee, Frl. B. Swartz, Frl. C. E. Vester. A second similar affair was held in April when two plays more difficult than the one played at Christmas were presented: Verschollen und Gefunden (Lost and Found) and Der Wirrwarr (Pell-Mell). The players of the former were: Frl. Wanda Kirkbride. Frl. Jessie Harper, Frl. Elsie Richards, Herr S. S. Shafer, Herr E. Albright, Herr Clyde Hill, Herr Carl Flegal, Herr Robert Merkle. Of the latter: Frl. Florence Walcott, Frl. Pattie Hackett, Frl. Ann, Herr J. P. Grethen, Herr B. Walpole, Herr L. E. Grimes, Herr J. R. Bender. All the players did splendidly in view of the fact that at the time of the playing, these students had been studying German only for three and seven months respectively, the large representative audiences were justified in bestowing appreciation and praise very lavishly. The St.-V. is a unique institution. It is the first club of its kind in the history of dear old O. U. and is a success from every point of view and has developed in a way that even the most sanguine hopes of its originator. Prof. Von Reithdorf, have been excelled.

An organization of this kind is almost a necessity in a Normal College. No class of persons so much need the association of fellow workers and the inter- change of ideas as do teachers. Although the personnel of the club changes almost entirely each year, the interest and enthusiasm is rather increased than diminished by this condition. The nature of the work of the first semester was that of addresses by the heads of departments, while in the second semester the members participated in the programs, thus giving them an opportunity to develop the initiative and cultivate the quality of leadership which is so necessary to the successful teacher. The different addresses given were: The Newer Education Dean H. G. Williams Relating School to Community Life F. C. Landsittel Education in Germany Dr. F. Von Riethdorf The Art of Story-telling Miss Emma Waite The Montessori Method Dr. W. L. Gard The officers for the first semester were: President F. H. McVay Vice President J. E. McNaughton Secretary-Treasurer Lucy Crammer Executive Committee Jennie F. Dowd. William Stage, Eva Powers For the second semester: President F. H. McVay Vice President Eva Powers Secretary-Treasurer Lulu Reiter Executive Committee Bessie Hawk, Jessie Tresham. O. P. Clutts The meetings were held on the second and fourth Monday night of each month. A Thanksgiving party was given in Ellis Hall, which was the one en- joyable social function of the year. The dramatization of Persephone, by the pupils of the critic school was an interesting feature of one evening ' s program. 155 g m at: Ohio University Art Club In the study of art, as in music, it is necessary, both as a stimulus and a technical help, to become familiar with the works of the great artists in painting, sculpture and architecture. To fulfil this need, the Ohio University Art Club was organized at the beginning of the college year of 1912, for the purpose of studying Art History. Students in the Art department of the College of Liberal Arts and those who are specializing in Art in the Normal College are eligible to membership. Since such membership is optional, only those really interested become members of the club. The study this first year was the history of Art in America. Beginning with the painters of the colonial times, an individual study was made of each one, as well as his relation to the times, the influences he received and gave. Step by step the evolution of painting in this country, the influence of foreign schools, the transition from one period to another, up to the present time, has been studied in detail. The instructors in the two Art departments, Miss Louise Stahl and Miss Mary Brison have added much to the interest of the studies by their illustrated lectures and talks on the personal side of the artists under whom they studied. The work of this new club has been very beneficial and a good basis has been formed for broader work in the coming years. The officers, elected for one year, were as follows: President Jennie F. Dowd Vice President Rena Lowry Secretary Byron Wolfe Executive Committee Key Wenrick, Minnie H. Horton, Marie Luntz 157 W SB AT: Kindergarten Club The Kindergarten Club of Ohio University has held its customary meet- ings in the Kindergarten rooms in Ellis Hall the second Saturday of the month.

It became a part of the student life at Ohio in the fall of 1911 by the general approval of the students, who elected a Board of Control, which had full power to regulate the paper according to a constitution adopted by a vote of the students. George C. Blower was the first Editor-in-Chief, and under his leadership the paper was well started on the way to success. At the end of his course the present Board of Control named J. A. Place as his successor, who served the first semester of the college year 1912-13. J. E. Klinnison is the third Editor to carry on the work and to maintain the high standard set by his predecessors. It may well be said that the paper has not had the support in the way of subscriptions from the student body that it should have had. Not because of any fault to be found with the paper in itself or with the Editors, but it is a new- adjunct to student life and must needs grow into its true value to the student before the subscription list becomes almost unannrous among them. In the Green and White is to be found all the forms of student life and activities within college halls. It is in no sense a philosophical magazine, dedi- cated purely to intellectual pursuits, but attempts only to give a vivid picture of old O. U. and its student body. The present Board of Control consists of seven members, who have served one year. The following students constitute this Board: J. O. Grimes. •13; L. H. Miller, ' 13; Flo Hutchins. ' I 3 ; R. G. Webber, ' 13; E. J. Voigt. ' 13; Essie Greisheimer, ' 14. and S. S. Shaffer. ' 14. 159 Jgg AT1EMA Sgl i g ATMEMA Sggg g : THE GREEN GOAT. Discovered December 1 3th. 1912. by Virgil Falloon.

ATHEMA The Green Goat When Green Goat arrove, as we might say, no one received more attention in ATHENS for the time being than he. The daily news emporiums of this quaint little village mentioned him, the students mentioned him, the RETAILED Merchant ' s Association discussed him, the Dartmouth Jack-o ' Lantern placed his name in their esteemed publication, and finally, even the Greenish White found space and inclination to write-up Butternut favorably. Many of the stewed ants of this intellectual ant hill, thought Butternut an organization paper. The week following the first ap- pearance, Butternut changed his personal and placed a representative from each of the fraternities, sororities, Phrenocon, and Aloquin in charge of himself. No one could be found for the really non- fraternity and non-sorority students who would represent those bodies. However, Butternut tried to, and became the most representative publication at Ohio University. The following composes Butternut ' s crew for 1913: Green Goat-Herds mangy editor Carl Von Alderstyne Foss, ' ]6, -W ASSISTANT EDITORS Louise Mickelthwaite, ' 14, n B ; Alta Elizabeth McLean, ' 15, 2 i 2; Gladys Lucille Van Valey, ' 15, A r A ; Myrtle Mardis, ' 15, AHA; Edith Marie Carpenter, ' 14, X n ; Mary Ethel Shuman, ' 14, Aloquin; James H.

Butternut has put more life, or at least has tried to, into the Green and White; he made $2.40 on the first issue; has made many students laugh; has made many a student cuss; has given the real cause of poor athletics at O. U. ; and has helped some students by kindly knox with which he knox. What Green Goat Has Not Done Butternut did not elect the President of the United States; it did not, or rather it has not yet, called ex-President Roosevelt a liar; il has not paid all its bills yet, but hopes to; Butternut has not invented a get-rich-quick-method, nor has he given the correct number of beans in Wolf and Schloss ' s bottle. 183 % 8 m ATIEMA atm: The High C Pirates The High C Pirates is a new organization at Ohio Uni- versity but an important one.

At the Wesleyan game, the team was perhaps in its best condition, and had not injuries and misfortunes intervened, the rest of the games might have resulted differently. The loss of Captain Gibson and injuries received by Bean. Hoodlet, Poss, Weist, McReynolds, and H. Fccles disorganized the team. Despite the redoubled work of Coach Hinaman and the men, the team drifted from better to worse. Too much praise cannot be accorded Hinaman for his suc- cessful handling of the men and the do or die spirit which he instilled into the team. The spirit and grit shown by Ohio during the first half of the Buchtel contest was a credit to any team. They played the heavy Buchtel eleven off their feet, but owing to injuries and lack of endurance, could not keep up the pace. The only victory of the year was with Otterbein. Ross intercepted a forward pass and ran half the length of the field for a touchdown. All during the game Ohio had several chances to score but was unable to cross the line. Ohio played good ball against Reserve during the first half, when they held the visitors to a 1 4 to 7 score, but went to pieces in the second half, owing to injuries of Gibson and Bean. As the result of this game Ohio went to Marietta with a team more eligible for the hospital than to play football. With this crippled team Ohio was unable to break up the plays of the fast and heavy Marietta aggregation. As a result, Ohio lost by a one-sided score. Ohio will lose by graduation White, R. Jones, M. Jones, Mickelthwaite, Voight, and the peerless Gibson. While the places of these men will be hard to fill, if the students at Ohio will pull together a winning team will be forth- coming in the fall. ?U m 3 ATEIEMA !fe |p£i eS at: Captain Clyde O. Gibson. Gibby, Halfback. Too much praise cannot be given to Gibby. He was the star of the team. It was only on account of injuries that he was not on the All-Ohio-Eleven. When- ever called upon to carry the ball, Gib- by responded with a gain. Even in the thickest of the fight, Gibby ' s smiling face could be seen. Ohio will search a long, long time before finding the equal of Clyde O. Gibson. His only fault is his over-attention to society. Good luck, Gibby, we all hate to see you go. Donald Ross, Don, Halfback, Cap- tain for 1913. He was one of the stars of this season and well deserves the captaincy for next year. Although not out for the Fresh- man team, he was one of the big surprises of the season. He was recognized as one of the best dodgers Ohio ever had and also a great man for making touchdowns. Ohio will make a name for herself next fall with Donald Ross as leader. Noted for his great singing ability. Wilbur McReynolds, Shorty, Quarterback. He always played a hard, nervy game. Shorty ' s offensive and defen- sive work was one of the features of the season, epecially at the Wesleyan and Marietta games. He proved that a little man can tackle as hard as a large one. With Shorty back next year the quarterback position is already filled. Deeply in love. a « 216 Gilbert R. Micklethwaite. Si, Tackle. Si proved to be the mainstay of the right side of the line. At right tackle he opened up big holes for the backs on the offense and on defense he was fairly impregnable. Always played a hard, consistent game. He was a bear in the West Virginia and Marietta struggles. With his graduation this spring, Ohio will lose a man whose shoes will be hard to fill. Must have his cigar after the Marietta game. Mostyn L. Jones, Bump, Halfback, End, Quarterback. Although the lightest man on the team, Bump always made good. Played all the different positions with rare skill and judgment. Made up for his weight by his great speed. We are sorry to lose him this year through graduation. However, we hope to hear of his successes in the med- ical world in the future. (He has already patented a famous brand of rattlesnake oil.) Eugene J. Voight. Dutch, Center. This sturdy German was a willing and hard worker. Played a hard game against Kenyon. Dutch missed the Chi Omega ' s when he made the round. Ronald Bean, Ron, Tackle. A hard tackier, who always delivered the goods. Ron was always to be found in the thickest of the fray. Injuries prevented his participation in the Marietta contest. Very bashful among the fair sex. Charles Eccles, Eck, End. Played a very hard game and with this year ' s experience will very good man for next fall. A hard worker. Looking for a wife. make 217 ath: James H. White, Jim, ' ' Guard. Although light, one of the grittiest guards Ohio ever had. When tailed upon, Jim never failed to open up a hole for the backs. Was one of the most faithful workers on the team. Most suc- cessful in his love affairs. Leslie Warner, Eva, Guard. This heavy guard needs only experi- ence to claim his own on the gridiron. Hails from New England. Played his best game Thanksgiving. Good timber for next year. A frequenter of Dalton ' s Dancing Academy. Benjamin W. Miller, Ben, End. Owing to injuries, Ben participated in but two games. Noted for his abil- ity to get away with forward passes. The swiftest man on the team. Pledged Alpha Xi Delta. Roger J. Jones, Rofster, End, Quarterback. Donned his football togs for the last two games. Kept the Marietta score down by his long punts. Will leave on his honeymoon in June.. Henry Eccles, Hen, Fullback. Hen is one of those men whose value is in their steadiness. Could always be relied upon. Somewhat light for a fullback, but a good line plunger, and played a good game on the defense. Starred in the West Virginia game Will be ready for the call next fall. An admirer of the pin. 218 Austin Vorhes Wood, Swede, Center. From the Daily Messenger we learned that Austin Vorhes Wood played in the West Virginia game. Null sed. P. S. Wood ' s best games were the Frst of the season. With more endur- ance he should develop into a well balanced player. James Kinnison, Deac, End. Played a nervy and speedy game at end. Known for his punting ability and good tackles at Delaware. With a little more weight Deac would be sur- passed by none. Is looking for the One Woman. Fred B. Goddard, Ferdie, Guard. With another year ' s experience, Goddard should develop into a good linesman. This season demonstrated that he has the making of a good player. A good executive. Albert H. Weist, Charley, Guard. While his playing cannot be classed as sensational, Weist did consistent work whenever called upon. Serious injuries in the Buchtel game prevented him from finishing the season. An orator of the Ciceronian type. John Nixon, Nick, End. A very hard worker. With another year ' s experinece, Nick will make cne of the best men on the team. Injuries kept him out of several games.

This string of victories was bro- ken by a disastrous Northern trip where we lost two games, Case and Hiram. But two games were lost on our own grounds. Too much praise cannot be given Dougan for his great pitching. He certainly was a bear. With proper support Dougan would not have lost a game. His best was against Kenyon when he struck out nineteen which equals the school record. This College twirler had four shut-outs to his cred- it. All his games were remarkable exhibitions of pitching. Krout, while not sensational, pitched good ball at times. His only drawback was lack of experience. As a backstop Gibson was above the average of College catchers. A very hard hitter. Cut off many a base-runner at second. Miller took care of the initial sack in fine team in stolen bases. A reliable hitter. Jones held down second like a veteran, player. Nutting played a hard consistent game at third and out-field. Was valuable to the team as a batter. Renshaw covered short in brilliant fashion. Was a good base- runner and showed well at the bat. Stailey was a good man in the outfield. Did excellent work with the stick. Wilson played an errorless game in the outfield. Could always be depended upon for a long drive.

The team began its work early in January with two veterans of the previous year and many Sophomores with good reputations in their Freshman and High School days. Under Douthitt ' s able coaching and Captain Gibson ' s competent leadership a team was rounded into shape which came through the season with six vic- tories and seven defeats. All of the games were hard fought. Ohio showed her best form against Marietta and Western Reserve. The boys certainly did play hard the last game and it was a treat to watch them work. GlBSON — Captain Gibson was right on the job at the guarding game and his man scored few baskets on him. Gib could also drop them through the ring and helped the score materially by his long shots in nearly all the games. His absence will be greatly felt next season. SHAFFLER — At forward Dutch played a whirlwind game. In several of our games he was our chief point gainer. He also took care of the fouls, and it was here that he starred in every game. McReynolds — Shorty at forward was as fast as there was on the floor. He was a quick, sure passer and a star floor man, handling the ball the best of any man on the team. He could slip them into the basket too, just when points were needed most. MlLLER — Ben at center played a very good game. His movements on the floor were very fast. His own passing was fast and sure. Had a good eye for the basket which makes him a val- uable man who can be counted on next year. GoLDBERRY — Blaine played a very fast game at guard. He played a star floor game and scored many of the locals ' points. Was one of the best passers we had on the team. Will make a very good man to lead the team next year.

ATHENA 9 228 ATHEMA The spring of 1913 is the brightest and most hopeful in the history of track athletics at Ohio Uni- versity. All of our old men with whom we de- feated Otterbein so easily last year are, with one exception, in school this year. B. R. Shields, our most successful point-winner, graduated with last year ' s class, and his loss is keenly felt by this year ' s team. Shields has won points for us in nearly every event; but like most all- around athletes, his place is being more than filled by men who are satisfied to train on one or two events. There are three things which are contributing to our success this spring, viz: the spirit among the men themselves, which is bringing at least thirty men out to train for the different positions on the team; the presence of a good coach on the field; and the increased support given to track athletics by the institution. Our track coach. Dr. C. M. Douthitt, was not notified until after the basketball season of it being his duty to condition track men. Consequently he was greatly handicapped to find his team without any training, when all the other teams of the state were in the best of condition. But the confidence which the team has placed in his coaching ability has overcome this handicap and at present the team is in better condition than any other year at this time. Captain Case has always been successful in getting the necessary aid from the college authorities, and at the same time has kept his men trainnig. This is Case ' s third year to represent Ohio in her track meets. He is acquainted with all the trials and disappointments of the game. As soon as a man begins to lose interest. Case has a conference with him and the candidate begins train- ing harder than ever before. Case is an all-around athlete, and has the interest of the team so much at heart that he is training on the events that the team seems to be weakest on; and not simply on the things that are liable to bring him the most personal honor. With such of last year ' s men on the team as Case, Fry, Rucker, Bowles and Dustheimer, we may well expect that many records given in this issue will be broken before the season is over. •229 •s. g ATMEMA Track Team 100 yd. dash Miller, Case, Rucker, and Nixon. 220 yd. dash Miller, Case, Rucker, and Nixon. 440 Rucker, Case, Bean, and Nixon. 880 Dougan, Hastings, Goddard, and Shively.

He was instrumental in securing new courts and repairs on the old ones, so that now the club can boast of well-equipped grounds. lub was organized in 1910, and with each succeeding year been taken in it. The same year a tournament was played The tennis more interest ha: with Kenyon. In the fall of 1912 an inter-class tournament was held. Representatives of the freshmen, sophomores, juniors and seniors participated. Great interest was manifested by all concerned. Fletcher Miller, sophomore, won first place in the singles, and together with J. Chamberlain, also won first place for the sophomores in doubles. The players in the singles were Donley, senior; Blosser, junior; F. Miller, sophomore; Herrold, freshman. Doubles, Donley and Fisher, seniors; Ben Miller and Blosser, juniors; F. Miller and Chamber- lain, sophomores; Herrold and Wolf, freshmen. Immediately the sophomores were challenged by members of the faculty, the faculty participants being, physical director, Douthitt, singles, and Dean Chubb and W. R. Cable, doubles. Miller won again in singles, but the tables were turned in doubles. The girls ' tennis tournament also resulted in a victory for the sophomores. The contestants were the Misses Brison, Strausbaugh, Baker and Wade. Esther Baker and Ilda Wade won first and second places, respectively, for the soph- omores. Numerals were awarded to the representatives of the different classes. The design in which the numerals were made up was green felt on which was placed the crossed tennis rackets and the year of the bearer in white. Interclass tournaments will be held in the spring. Athletic Manager Parks is corresponding with other colleges and some rousing inter-collegiate games are expected. If the club enters the O a ssociation, there will be uniform requirements necessary for obtaining the letters in the various forms of athletics. TMEMA 5 P SSQ fc m a Pgg at: jc: «ff ATM s 4|$ £ : The Men ' s Leaders Class ▲ffc The Men ' s Leaders Class was organized for the purpose of assisting the physical director in teaching gymnastics to the classes. Those men were selected with three qualifications in view. — First, a strong interest in the work ; second, gymnastic abil- ity; third, natural leadership and willingness to work. An hour once a week was set aside for their special instruction in the gymnasium work. They were coached by Dr. Douthitt in correct performance of gymnastic exercises, in gymnastic culture, and best methods of teaching apparatus exercises. These men have been greatly benefited by this special training and were of great help to the physical director and the members of the different gymnasium classes by their leading and teaching of small squads of men on the heavy apparatus and gymnastic exercises. 237 M : !jM £B£ 9 y VB5. A §PiS 9fe ATHEMA Sglgpll Jjpgglpgid AT3HEMA 5g$§ TMk fottoB atme: The True Thinker Ever as the years roll humanity gives birth to a true thinker; a superior man; a representative of high moral and intellectual excel- lence. A man with a high ideal and a determination to raise him- self to that ideal. A man who seeks only those conditions and asso- ciates which will tend to develop in him the noblest, purest, grandest tendencies of his being. He seeks pure knowledge, a true mind, a right sentiment of heart. If his mind is filled with vile, poisonous, vicious knowledge, his life is apt to assume these undesirable qualities. If, on the other hand, his mind is filled with pure, wholesome, real knowledge, these desirable qualities are apt to attach themselves to his life. Upon the tone of his mind his whole career depends. His knowledge constitutes his thinking; thus he deplores anything which will tend to destroy that accuracy of judgment and decision characteris- tic of the true thinker. In times when his soul is sorely tried noth- ing is so essential as pure, clear, sincere thinking. Therefore he steers clear of that vile stuff which is being circulated under the name of knowledge, and cherishes only that clean and real sort which will help him think true. He deplores tainted knowledge as much as tainted money. Bad books, bad plays, bad pictures, bad suggestions of any sort are banished from his environment as much as possible, lest by their influence his vision be clouded, and his judgment lose its cunning. His passions too must be kept in subjection. He must discipline and direct them, or some day they will discipline and direct him with scorpion whips. A man of such mental tone will, naturally, not be touched by the petty whims of the crowd. He builds that he may know where he stands. He lays the foundation of his life upon certainties and conditions, rather than upon rumors and suppositions. Thus his foun- dation being sure, his order of life is well defined. He feels no shame when he is asked the reason for his course of action. What matter if the world does not agree with his point of view? Does not his soul whisper to him that he is right? To his own soul then, shall he stand or fall. There is enough of the divine in 242 atm: him to dispel fear of man. Only to the Infinite will he bow the knee. Obeisance to any other is but hollow mockery. The depraved and withered soul may fawn and grovel in the dust at the feet of his fellow, but never man of true mind can do such. Anything but truth is untrue to his high estate. Nor can he seem to be or express that which is untrue to him. Why should custom, or opinion of men come between him and the Eternal Truth? Custom, the tat- tered, cast off garment of bygone ages; fit amusement for little wits. The ever changing, ever recurring whims of the vulgar can touch no man of true mind. Such as know not themselves, nor live the truer life may well concern themselves for the plume or garter. It is life that is worth the while to the true thinker; not the trappings of life. To him to live is to be a vital force among men; not the chief servant in some money mint. Nor is it a cast of the dice; but the one great, eternal certainty of the universe. Neither did he happen into this world of unchangeable law, nor will he live a game of chance. He was created for some purpose; he will live with an aim. To him it is natural to live; yet why should he weep if one die. Shall man never reach a higher shore, but ever be anchored to the first little pond? All is harmony, but to die would not mar the plan. Death to the true thinker is but the second curtain lifted for the nobler acting. All that is makes the harmony of life. There is no dis- cord save man only; yet the retuning of man calls forth tone of such shade and color as never rock nor tree has sounded. Man, to the true thinker, with all his discord is the richest string in the mighty harp of the Lord. And ever, as the Harper strikes, man gives forth the sweetest chord. Yes, to this true thicker there is, above all else, harmony in the unchangeable, eternal laws of God. Yet deem not this thinker the child of sunshine, the dweller of fair skies and endless day. His years are full of doubt and despair. Down in the valleys of life he finds his light all but consumed by angry darts of evil. In his path there are many lions — wide mouthed lions — of doubt. But he must slay these; for back of each beast there lies a crown of intellectual attainment. Thus with joy he goes forth into the battle. He is a conqueror. No power but death can deny him the solution of every difficulty. And even death, that dreaded monster, but opens to him a wider field — a field not circumscribed by the physical. Doubt? Doubt has become to every true thinker the trumpet call to battle. It is doubt that destroys the false light that has been 243 ATME leading him in seeming paths of peace and contentment. In the valley of doubt he learns to investigate, experiment, verify. Not as they seem, but as they are must he know things. He must scatter the chaff from the wheat. Nor does he acquire this power by merely wish- ing it, but by days of vigilance — long days of vigilance which have demanded his very blood. True he does at times seem inspired to utter great truths; but back of all inspiration lies effort — long, patient, persistent effort. In days of obscurity he has prepared for these great revelations of truth. All his thoughts have been forged out in his own little shop. Link by link he has forged and welded them together; but the world looks at the finished chain, and cries, Behold a man of inspiration! yet not by great leaps of inspiration, but by years of incessant toil he has been preparing to give to humanity his golden chain of thought. Out of the thickest of thorns he has cut the way to fame. Thorns by whose every scratch he has been made a wiser man — a man more able to understand the mystery of grief and joy, hatred and love. Every thought has been bought with a price which can only be repaid by the thrill of victory over darkness. Like the coral down in the depths amid innumerable and chaotic forms, he begins his struggle for a higher life, seeks a solid rock to build upon; each day living and dying — mounting higher, higher, until he reaches the clear, blue air; warms in the sunshine; becomes fertile and bears fruit. M. E. BlERER. 244 atm: On the Campus Toast delivered at the Y. W. C. A. Banquet by Jennie Frances Dowd. Why that knowing smile, which spreads over the countenances of these fair maidens, at the mere mention of On the Campus. Methinks there must be some sweet knowledge of secrets invisible to the casual observer, which brings the dimples to the cheek, the smiling glance to the eye, and sets up a pleasant train of reminiscences. In my perplexity, I set about to fathom why this subject was given to ignorant, unsophisticated me, and the only conclusion to which I could come was, that we generally are asked to write upon subjects about which we know the least. My next perplexity, made greater by the aforesaid smiles and mysterious glances, was to find out what is really On the Campus. ' Although you and I have studied this campus day after day, and some, night after night, I shall now reveal to you the unseen things which you failed to see there. Late one beautiful night, a great restlessness had taken possession of me, when all at once, whispered beguilingly in my ear were the words Come! Come! Come! Powerless to resist this imperative summons, I followed the voice some little distance, and slowly crossing an open space, I entered a branching way and found I was On the Campus. Owing to the late hour it was entirely deserted, and I began to wonder whence came the voice, and for what reason I had been brought hither. Suddenly before me appeared a troop of tiny figures whom I recognized as the evening fairies of the woods. Hold- ing my breath a little, I was sufficiently myself to understand from their words, that to me, on this night, mysterious secrets would be revealed — that every tree would become an oracle, delivering knowl- edge little suspected by the daily passer-by. The dim place, green and flickering in the moonlight awed me, and for some moments I was bewildered in the spell of this secrecy and promise of untold mystery. Thinking to regain control of myself, I hurriedly entered one of the walks, leading further into the campus, when up from the depths of the foot-paths came these clear ringing words. 245 Pfg at: How dear to tired feet are we paths of the camnns. When to the late student we ' re presented to view; The by-paths, the short cuts that make them less weary. And ease aching corns which their secrecy knows; The worn path, the shorn path, the paths that are denied them, The hard trodden paths that they all love so well; The cool paths, the criss-crossed, the paths lovers stroll in. The forbidd ' n-paths they all make for at the last tap of the bell. Just as their singing ceased, I looked at the various trees around me, found each one was labeled to represent the different departments of college life. Fearing my time was limited, I allowed the Fairy to guide me. She told me that the two la ge trees standing side by side were the Philomathean and Athenian Literary Societies; that for years these trees have stood tor all that is noble and worthy in college life and as their roots sink deeper and deeper, so does their influence become greater and greater. She said further, The twigs of the Athenian are somewhat swelled just now, on account of a recent victory they have won. As you see, each is a little one sided, on account of the lashing together of their limbs, when tossed about by adverse winds. This smaller tree, which shows such rapid growth and luxuriance is the Adelphian, which bids fair to soon equal the greatness of the other two. And what is that grim-looking troop doing over there? I asked. Oh, they are the imps of the Mathematicians who are digging for the Square Root. In about the 4th term some lucky possessors are able to sporut a little learning from it, dry and hard as it may seem to you, while others find their quantity was too small, or too green and required a little longer seasoning. While pondering over this, I heard a crooning behind me; The melancholy days are come, the saddest of the ye ar. Of weeping maids and sighing lads, O ' er exams, which now are here. Deep in the confines of their rooms, They cram their empty heads, Whose rattle gives the Profs, disgust. And fills each student with dread. 246 ATME When this had ceased, I was led by my fairy to a favorite spot, on the east side of the lot, where one little sprite advanced and pro- posed the following riddle: In the morn, no face or hands do you see. Yet at eve, four hands and two faces there be; At morn, no birds are hovering round, At eve, two cooing doves may be found. And they chatter and coo Till the moon says, Ye-oo, Better make your flight o ' er toward the dorm. Knowing that the answer to this riddle involved time (have you guessed it?) and being eager to leam all I could I set it aside and questioned concerning a queer looking tree with thifrty-two large Green and White appearing leaves on its tranches. On closer inspection, I thought I recognized the college-paper tree. No veins have these leaves, but only lines. That are found in 20 ' s and 10 ' s, And every week, the fairy said, Tho they may turn, they ' re not always re(a)d. Nearing the magic Fountain, I found two faries standing guard; I was informed that one was Cupid, the other the spirit of 191 I. A never-ending struggle has been going on between these two fairies, for when 1911 beckons the loiterer to quench his thirst at the clear- flowing fountain, bome on the breeze comes Cupid ' s pleadings, Drink to me only with thine eyes. And I will pledge with mine. Just take the kiss within the cup, And you will ask for mine. One large beautiful tree was labeled L ' p to Date Maxims. I was real curious about these, and began reading: A little loving is a dangerous thing, Drink deer; or taste not the Cupiderean Spring. It is a wise girl who knows her own mind. An ounce of bluff is worth a pound of wisdom. A new girl ' s glances alter cases. Incidents will happen, even in the best regulated love affairs. 247 ath: An answer in the head is worth two on a cuff. One good grade deserves an encore. A plot is not without honor, save in comic opera. Woman is made for man to come back to. Uneasy lies the head that has nothing in it. Seize time bv the lovelock. Of two evils, choose the prettier. Nonsense makes the heart grow fonder. A pitch in time saved the nine. Where there is a will there ' s a detective story. Never put off till tomorrow what you can wear tonight. Dead heads tell no tales. A stitch in Domestic Art is worth two in the side. There is nothing so unnatural as a natural girl. Classes and the college bell wait for no man. A man is known by the love-letters he keeps. It ' s a long corner that has no turning. He who flunks and runs away. May live to flunk another day. Contentment consists in having an invite to Jr. Prom. Here I was interrupted by the fairy who said I must hasten, for she was anxious to tell me about the life seen on the campus during the day. She told me of the Lions, which, dressed up in the high fashion, haunt the parlors and bore (?) the young ladies with their company; of the Professor Bears, some cross and ill-natured, grunt- ing out their disapproval; others kind and making you feel as if you wanted to give them a real good bear-hug; and about the cute Cubby Prof. Bears; of the Deers, which, because of their charming grace are hunted and sometimes caught by the true Sportsman; of the Kittens so charming and playful; of the Donkeys, rarely overcoming their characteristic qualities; of the innumerable Gooses wandering around with their vacant idle looks and clacking sounds; of the Ducks — merry ones, with laughing eyes, with fearless natures and full of pluck; of the Owls, who sit up late and burn the midnight oil; of Mocking-birds, and Screech owls, and Bull-frogs whose trilling notes are heard at any hour of the day; of the frolicsome Kids, who do nothing but eat, drink, and be merry; and, she said, Just this week a tiny Green Goat butted in, which is being fed on taffy and sweet 248 atm: things. It may live awhile, unless it ge ts too frisky and is unkind to the other animals, when it will be denied the wherewithal by which it lives. Now I want to tell you about the flowers growing on our beautiful campus. Soon Spring Beauties and Dandy-lions will be found in abundance, becoming more beautiful when near the Night- shade. In Summer time you will find it dotted with Sweet Williams and Marguerites, protected by the Umbrella plant; here and there. a Century plant, much Maiden ' s Hair, bought and transplented: Tulips galore; Palms, Rubber Plants, Lady-Slippers; and at the close of the summer the campus is fairly red with Bleeding Hearts. Lately a new specie has been introduced — the Electric-Light- Plant. It is a peculiar plant, in that it fruits before it blooms, thai is, its currants (currents) cause it to burst into brilliant bloom. The afore-mentioned plants were very much shocked when it appeared. My companion fairy noticing a pale glow in the East, said we must hasten so she led me down the walk, along the side of which I noticed four trees — which she designated as emblematic Class trees: Freshman, evergreen; Sophomore, cocoanut; Junior, tree of knowl- edge; Senior, chestnut. I then asked about two exceedingly beautiful trees, standing like sentinels, keeping guard over the entrance to O. L ' . These, she said, are our religious trees, Y. M. C. A. and Y. W. C. A., the most loved of all. Here they stand, strong and enduring, secur- ing their nourishment from Mother Nature, sending their roots deeper and deeper into the soil, and their branches out farther each year. Thus do these organizations, nourished by college life and atmosphere become deep-rooted in the hearts of the students, and through their different branches, reach out to bring cheer to the many. And as the leaves, in falling give bade new life to Mother Earth so the members of these bodies, as they leave us to go to their different walks of life, carry with them an everlasting influence that is life-giving to those a.mong whom they may be. Then passing out through the entrance guarded by the Spirits of 1912, I lifted my voice, saying- Green be the turf above thee Campus of my college days; None knew thee but to love thee, None named thee but to praise. 249 atm: Quinnemont Valley Quinnemont valley seemed not of the world. Its two or three hundred people secured between their five hills knew only peace. None who was born to its ambient atmosphere was ever able to find satisfaction outside its sacred fold. The traditions of the valley were a magnetic force which held these simple folks by bonds of unswerving affection. Love of the beautiful mountains and the idea that no wrong should be done within their enclosure was instilled into every child ' s mind with its earliest grasp of knowledge. Some had gone forth from the valley but always some infinite guidance called back the wanderer and joy was added to the peace which was never withdrawn. Today in the valley every home is deserted. Not a figure can be discerned in the open doorways. Where are its pople? One beautiful mountain stands a little within the circle made by four taller mountains. Here birds sing joyously from pines which ever waft a perfume from their merrily tossing branches. At the foot of the mountain we see the people — a quiet, slowly moving crowd. It seemed fitting to these simple folk that they should give this prettiest spot to those to whom they could not otherwise show their affection. It is the graveyard of Quinnemont valley. The people group themselves about a newly-dug grave and the earnest voice of an old man is heard. My people, we are sorry to have to say farewell to this brother whom we have loved. Seven years ago as a youth he came to us. He came boldly. With his reckless spirit he was not like us; but he was good at heart. His past we did not ask — he had need to forget. He worked hard at our simple labors, and at night under ours stars, and they drew him into tune with our hearts. He told us none loved him whence he came, but we welcomed him. Love entered his life and he became our sunny, contented lad. Some closer was he drawn to the Infinite thru the love of one of God ' s daughters, our sister here. The old man paused and laid his hand on the shoulder of a young woman who stood by the grave, holding by the hand a boy of five. Then he continued. 250 ATMEMA You rememeber the happy wedding and know that their happi- ness lost nothing thru these years. You know his patience during his last suffering. Now he has fallen asleep. All is well. Let us not be rebellious. From our lowly plane we cannot see God ' s pattern but we trust. The speaker looked up with almost a spiritual light on his child- like face. Then bowing his head, he prayed. Thus ended the simple ceremony at the grave of one who had come a stranger some years before. A grieving wife and a wondering child said a calm good-bye; and the coffin was lowered. Then all, as one big family, went back to their cottages; and though grief was in their hearts, peace was there also. In a town far to the north a father groans in repentance for his treatment of an only son. By his neglect and the lack of sympathy he had lost his son even before the boy had left, with anger in his heart and a longing for something his motherless home could not give. The boy had determined, wilful and reckless. He had disobeyed his father repeatedlv, resenting commands from one to whom he felt no bond. The father was an astronomer, but he had missed the real glory of the stars in his selfish aspinng to fame. To him his motherless child was scarce an acquaintance. The estrangement grew as the lad matured and the slight connection became entirely severed. The father, busy at his telescope and endless calculations knew not where his son had gone and cared httle. For months he had been working on a grand scheme of satellites in the attempt to prove a long cherished theory. Suddenly there appeared in the field of his observa- tion a dimly luminous body that upset all his calculations and inter- fered with the coveted proof. Its presence could not be ignored. Its influence on all other heavenly bodies could not be neglected and the calculations were to that extent incorrect and the project a failure. Discouraged and depressed, the astronomer had not the heart to return to his observatory. He had hoped to present his theory fully substantiated, and was eager for the world ' s applause. He brooded over his disappointment, and in reaction from his dispair, his thoughts turned their searching power to other things. He had now time to think for himself — to see that life holds more than work, and that fame is not all. He thought, too, of his son and as the time passed and the boy did not return, the father ' s conscience awoke. 251 m0m% My boy! Will he ever return? the father asks himself. He thinks of his wife. Surely she in heaven reproaches him. A realiza- tion of himself comes in full force. His beloved stars no longer whisper to him of fame but speak of his unpardonable mistake. Is God ' s mercy sufficient for him? My boy! My boy! the cry is wrung from the father ' s heart. Oh, I must find him. But search does not avail. Months of waiting and suspense deepen the anguish in the father ' s heart until he can find no rest. I must go from here, he cries. I will banish myself from my home as I banished my son. God help me I will atone, or balance his suffering with mine. So Loren Haver, the astronomer, bowed under the weight of sorrow, disappeared from his home. His beloved stars had failed his plans but they were beginning to show him God. Down in Quinnemont valley a little boy lies on the ground and watches the clouds as they lazily roll and constructs for himself a phantom world in their fleecy depths. Father went up there, he murmurs. He watches a shadowy cloud figure and it passes from his plane of vision seemingly entering the side of the tall mountain; and he comes to study the mountain also in his child fancy. One day as he watched, a figure seemed to move about on the mountain side. It was the figure of a man. I see father, the child cried. To him it was only a cloud figure like all the other cloud-shapes that appeared now and again, altered in form — a figure in his ever changing cloud drama. But this figure he noticed often. Mother, he would say, I saw father again today. And the clouds were awful big and rolled so fast. I saw a great king and lots of people and they all went in a big ship. Father is up there, isn t he, mother? Let us go up, mother. Yes, Loren, child, father is up there watching you; but we cannot go, not now. We cannot climb to him. The cloud pictures passed, a strange fascination for the child. One day he lay and gazea upward until the clouds seemed to be brought nearer and ibe mountain top, too, in a strange hazy light seemed too high to be reached. 252 ATMEMA 5 3? My father, the boy cried jumping up joyfully. I am going to climb up to you. I will bring you clown and mother will be glad. I am coming! I am coming! he called as he ran. The mountain is not very hard to climb. I can get up easily. For a distance he clambered along with little effort, but after a while the slope became steeper and there were no zigzag trails to follow. I guess father is a way up high, but I ' m not very tired and I don ' t need to go back to dinner, the child prattled hopefully. Many falls and a few bruises did not discourage him but he had to stop often and rest. Oh, I must have a staff, like grandpa ' s, he cried, and with effort broke a limb from a dogwood tree. Bravely the little mountain climber ascended, talking to himself as he struggled on. I guess I ' m pretty tired, soon he said. I ' ll take a little rest. And his tiredness was soon forgotten in sleep. Dreaming, he turned in his sleep. Rolling against a small stone, it detached itself and jolted noisily down the mountain side. Startled, the boy sprang to his feet, stumbled on his crooked staff and fell headlong. One arm bent under him and he screamed in pain. Lie still! I will come to you, he heard a voice call, and look- ing up saw an old, bearded man hurrying down to him. The child had not been taught to fear and he obeyed. When the man reached him he asked, What are you doing here, my boy? I am going up the mountain to find father. I saw him up there, pointing to the hazy blue mountain top. You must have seen me, child, I live on this mountain and I have it all to myself, said the old man. Oh, then you are my father. ou are old, but mother said father was up here. Did you come up by yourself, my boy? Yes, mother couldn ' t see you and I could, so I came. I hurt myself but it doesn ' t hurt now, anymore. The man took the tired child in his arms. Now which way did you come? It is getting dark and your mother will want you. And the old man carried the child down the mountain side, a stout staff making progress easy. At the dogwood tree was a group of people. 253 ATHEMA My child, cied the mother. Mother, I went for father and he is bringing me, called the boy. Madam, your boy is a brave star-follower, said the man, letting the child down and turning to go. Stranger, we thank you, as God ' s own messenger, said one of the crowd. I am glad to be of service, returned the man. Mother, he must not go. Didn ' t you know it is father? urged the boy. Whom shall I thank for the return of my child? said the moth- er. Madam, a lone man who lives on the mountain top above your tranquil valley, Loren Haver, at your service. God is good! That was my husband ' s name! And tears of joy coursed down the wrinkled face. Hungrily catching up his grandchild, he extended an arm and drew to him the wife of his lost son. God ' s mercy never faileth and prayer commands fulfillment.

Dr. Chance first enter- tamed the idea that kiss could be prepared arti- ficially. He labored very ardently in the chemical laboratory with different elements- and compounds. He first attempted to take Potassium Iodide (KI) and combined it with two Parts Sulphur (S.). thus obtaining Kiss. But his earnest efforts were a fail- ure. Instead of obtaining k-iss he obtained KIS was not available. e gave up trying to — which Then h prepare it artificially and tried to find it free in na- ture. How long Dr. Chance labored he refuses to state, or when, or how, or where he obtained it. But the fact leaked out on February 29, 1912, that he had actually obtained KISS in available form. Dr. Chance keeps secret the conditions under which KISS was prepared. It is known that it can be prepared under a hood (as shown in the illustration), and it is thought that conditions of pressure varies with the time, place, and manner of preparation. The properties of KISS were not disclosed by Dr. Chance whether it is in the form of gas, liquid, or solid: no one but Dr. Chance knows. It is hoped that he will give the benefit of his discovery to the general public in the near future. A two hour course in chicken anatomy will be offered, dealing with the various methods of getting meat off of bones. This course will be required of all students boarding at the Dorms and lunch rooms (owing to the absence of chicken it is not necessary to require students boarding at clubs to take this course). In psychology class: How do you explain love at first sight? Prof.: Well, that depends — that depends. State your case, Mr. Blizzard. 2 g ATMEMA SgSsSSPlB ATIHIE OHIO UNIVERSITY BULLETIN Page 27 (Revised Edition.) There is no charge for tuition in any of the regular preparatory or col- legiate classes, but all students must contribute to the faculty a fee of nine dollars each semester. From this sum one dollar and a half is turned over to the A. L. E. committee. It is the purpose of this committee to administer this money so that the student gets as little good out of it as possible. Laboratory Fees — In zoology and chemistry a fee of $1.50 is charged for the privilege of inhaling rare odors, emitting from rotten materials. In psychology, a fee of $1.50 is charged for the privilege of selecting a beautiful damsel as a partner (while in lab.) to conduct experiments. (We rec- ommend this lab. to all students.) All laboratory fees are payable at the beginning of each semester. To these will be added a small brokerage (breakage) bill for handling lab. prop- erties. A deposit of $1.00 is collected by the Curator of the gymnasium, which is to insure the student to the privilege of cold shower baths and being relieved of all valuables placed in his locker. (By using this method it prevents the student from putting much in his locker and thus lockers can be made smaller.) Students in the college of music must pay a fee of $24.00 for the privilege of torturing all other students who enter the campus. We consider this very cheap (both music and fee). EXPENSES Boivd and lodging ran be obtained within a reasonable distance (3 miles) of the university at $3.50 per week. By forming a club, board (oak) may be obtain ed at $3.50 per foot (two feet under the table, $5.50. No board charged for legs on the table. Persons wishing to avoid board bills, sit on the table while eating). Students whose circumstances require it are allowed to board themselves, by whrh means their expenses and flesh may be still further reduced. All young women (of course, this includes all women) are required to reside in the O. U. Hennery; only for special cases will exceptions be made. It is the aim of the management to make these auarters as attractive (not for boys) as possible, and keep (all inmates) within the bounds of the (walls) lowest possible prices.
