Frederick Berchtold F. I). McLouth John Melhase Robert F. Bower Mrs. W. K. Stringer Colist a M. Murray Laura Pratt Edna Osborne Helen Gilkey lo To the attentive observer, the advancement and truly tremendous strides taken by the Agricultural Colleges of this country have been matters of great astonishment. There was a time, not long ago. when such schools were looked down upon as secondary and inferior, but now man is beginning to realize the importance of scientific farming, and of the combined theoretical and practical training in all branches of research well known as industrial edueation. No longer may universities sneer at and deride the state colleges. They must realize that Latin and Greek will not till land and rcsplendently reward the sweat of honest labor with the beauty and luxuriousness of its fruit. Not by any means least among the many is our Alma Mater, for no other school of this nature has ever evinced such progressive spirit. The most eventful year in the history of the Oregon Agricultural College is now reluctantly drawing to a close. With regret we watch the end approaching. Many new phases of college life have been entered upon; the school has broadened materially its already broadening scope, and its resources are taxed to the utmost to make adequate provision for the unparalleled attendance. This year has marked our transition. Every college must experience this period, in which it passes from the plane of minor schools to tlut of the major. With the new administration the standard has been raised. This has appealed to many, and will continue to appeal each succeeding year to multiplied hundreds of young men and young women, necessitating additions ro faculty, buildings and equipment in general. It is with great expectancy that we await the results of legislation in relation to an increased appropriation, for on this, to a great extent, depend our success in the future. Into the athletic world of the Pacific Northwest we have brought a new phase—intense and united college spirit. Such loyalty few have ever seen. The Saturday before last Thanksgiving showed the never-dying spirit of those seven hundred cadets, when, in the face of almost certain defeat, their shouts and cheers rang constantly higher and louder in support of their warriors upon the field. The record in oratory and debate lias l ccn a brilliant one. Willamette. McMinnville, Monmouth and Washington Stale, each lost to the farmers of Oregon. And the eloquence of our orator in the interstate contest won for us more laurels. Two new student publications. “The Northwest Journal of Engineering and The Oregon Countryman.” have been founded here, and are doing excellent work. The Oregon Forester” has also appeared on the scene, with headquarters in the Agricultural Hall. To the “Barometer.” the most precious of all student enterprises, great credit is due for its active interest in the welfare of the school, and the impartial yet decisive attitude it has maintained in respect to all matters. 11 The broadening influence lias materialized in other ways. The inauguration of the May Day Festival last spring marks a new feature. The Rose Festival and the coming Seattle excursion aie not to he overlooked, for they, too. are stepping stones. The progress in dramatics deserves commendation. Fach of the three plays produced by student talent evinced ability in rendering. Musical development has felt the profiting impetus of the onward rush. A glee club is now well on its feet ; the Mandolin Club never lx-fore has proved so strong. Greater than these is the magnificent chorus of one hundred and fifty voices. Now as we gaze into the future fr m the crest of our past, wc are sure that the influence of this remarkable year can never lose its vitality, for we have all seen the leaps of progress taken by the institution, the faculty and the students in the realization of the uplift of our Alma Mater. Alxive all is to be noted that the past year lias marked the coming of a new epoch in the history of education in Oregon—the epoch of industrial education. S. A. Wilson. 12 Cfje £ . a. C. Historic anb Jxemmiscrni By Prokrssor John B. Horxkr W hen Corvallis was hut a village, tin frame building later called Corvallis College was projected as a private undertaking. For several years the edifice—noble for that early time—served as a public school building and meeting house. All grades from the Primary to the Academic Department were accommodated. It was the public school of the place, yet it was dependent in a large measure upon subscription for support. Therefore, while the school served a public purpose, it was in its inception and maintenance a private institution. Furthermore, it was dominated by promoters who were ambitious that it might aspire to become a parochial institution of high grade. To this end the property was sold as early as 1865 to Rev. O. Fischer, agent of the conference, as a college for the Southern Methodist Church. Forthwith Rev. V. A. Finley. A. M., was chosen president, with Professor Armstrong as assistant. The two composed the faculty. This was the beginning. The popularity of the new college was at once established, and a widely distributed patronage was drawn from Oregon. California. Washington and Idaho. In the fall term of 1867, Rev. Joseph Emery, A. M.t was elected professor of mathematics to succeed Professor Armstrong. Because of the want of preparatory schools throughout the West, but few students could i e admitted to the college department; hence the demand for a preparatory school to serve as an academy in connection with the institution. Accordingly in I SOS W. W. Moreland was elected principal of the preparatory department. This was six years after Abraham Lincoln had approved the act of Congress providing for agricultural and mechanical schools in the various states, and the time had well-nigh expired in which the states might accept the pro- corvai.i.is coi.i.ege Where Scientific Agriculture was first taught in Oregon 13 Rev. w. A. Finley. A M.. President 1S65 1871 vision of the Oregon were he seen by taken from an law. alive the act lature, October 27. That the people of to the situation may following paragraph passed by the Legis-1868: ‘ Whereas, it appears that unless an Agricultural College is provided by law at this session of the Legislature, the grant by Congress will Ik- lost; therefore. this act shall take effect from the date of its passage.” Willamette University and Corvallis College had both been prominently mentioned in connection with the land grant patronage for an agricultural college ; and it was generally believed by Father Waller and other friends of the university that the Agricultural College ocated at Salem. Rut C. B. who represented Renton the Legislature at that time, inserted “Corvallis” instead of “Salem in the bill, and the Agricultural College was located at Corvallis. Thus at the last moment the bill became an act. and the act was law. Just how it happened has been a marvel to many a political dreamer since that Legislature. Joaquin Miller, who was writing poetry on the Long Tom in those days, tried to express it in the couplet: would be Bellinger, County in ‘The tctcr-board of life goes up: The teter-board of life goes down. An array of thirty-one trustees and fifteen officers of the l oard dominated the institution in 1869-1870, while there were only two professors and twenty-eight students in the college department. The college students were classified as follows: Four seniors, ten juniors and fourteen freshmen. Existing conditions did not justify the luxury � f a sophomore class that year. The Preparatory Department, which consisted of lot students, was taught by J. D. McFarland and W. E. Privctt. Mrs. S. E. Finley was in charge of the primary pupils, forty in number, and Jacob Brenner was the director of music. Bachelor of Science. Bachelor of Arts and Master of Arts were the regular degrees conferred by the college. Co-education was fully recognized. Young ladies were admitted to all the college classes, and were entitled to the same honors and diplomas as young men. Tuition varied from ten to fifteen dollars per term, and special concessions were made to clergymen. That the management of the school sustained the relation of pater fa mi lias to the students may he inferred from the fact that the parent of each minor in the male department was expected to name some member of the faculty as guardian of his son while attending college, with whom funds might be deposited, and to whom the students should be accountable for their proper use. The funds for the young ladies were deposited with “the keeper of the boarding house. It was stated in the catalogue that most of our difficulties arise from the improper use of money injudiciously entrusted to pupils. Then followed the injunction. “All persons arc forbidden to trust a minor without the consent of his or her guardian.” The pupil was not allowed to lx ard at a place not approved by the faculty, nor to change from one boarding house to another without permission. Young ladies were required to board at the Young Ladies' Boarding Mouse unless they had near relatives who could receive them and were willing to assume the entire responsibility of their government. Young men might rent rooms and board themselves, but there was no such provision for the young ladies. The public duties of each school day were opened with appropriate religious exercises. Attendance upon these exercises and also services at some place of worship on the Sabbath, was required of all pupils. All pupils over 14 fourteen years of age were required to sign six college laws, two of which will he interesting. Law III prohibited students front playing at cards or billiards. Law V, which drew a very clear civil engineer’s line between co-education and roo-cducation. is given verbatim: Young ladies boat ding in the village or vicinity who are under the care of the faculty will not be permitted to receive the visits of young gentlemen, without the written consent of their parents, under such restrictions as the faculty may require. The Agricultural course of two years was one of the best in the nation at that time; yet it reminds one of a course of pharmacy with no pharmacy in it. or a course in medicine which is thoroughly innocent of materia medica. It was a good, strong course in science and mathematics, and it made good, useful, scholarly men and women competent to stand 1 efore kings. It served its purpose well in its day: ami the mathematics and sciences, like so many letters of the alphabet, have since spelled out in full the courses introduced later in agriculture, agronomy, agrostology, horticulture, forestry, olericulture and what not. Below is given a fac simile of this course, which is important chiefly because it was the first formal announcement of scientific instruction in agriculture in Oregon. Agriculture COURSE or ITUD7.

Entomology, (or German). President Finley continued in office till 1871. Professor Joseph Emery having declined the office. Benjamin L. Arnold. A. M., Ph. I)., was selected President. Doctor Arnold was a philosopher who could easily have gained first rank in any position of school work. In chemistry, language, mathematics. or metaphysics, he was equally at home. 11 is diligence in preparation. his ability to impart and his high conception of human possibilities made President Arnold eminent among teachers as an inspiration to his students. His marked personality differed from that of every other man. There was something in his countenance that baffled the artist, and the kindly-light of his eye was too rich for the painter t« commit t«� canvas. Doctor Arnold’s students everywhere speak with pride of the moments he mingled with them. About this time Professor B. J. Hawthorne was elected to the chair of language. On the 17th day of April. 1871. the Board of Trustees purchased from George Roberts and Elizabeth Jane Roberts 34.85 acres of land for a college farm, which has since been transformed into the campus. Professor Hawthorne also took charge of the Department of Agriculture, agriculture as a study being added at this time to the department. Hence Professor Hawthorne was the first teacher of Agriculture in the college. He formulated a very practical course and undertook experimentation. One of the permanent evidences of Ins work is the present conduit which drains the campus. This is one of the first hits of experimentation in drainage done in a scientific way in Oregon. 15 It. I.. Arnold, A. M.. |� h. 1).. President 1S7I-1SV2 During President Arnold's incuin-bency the growth of Oregon brought on certain changes which led many to be- I lieve that the Agricultural College | f | should be a state school. Senator Thomas Cauthorn introduced a bill in the Legislature to this effect, and the bill became law within twenty-four hours after its introduction. So great was the influence of Senator Cauthorn. who was also Secretary of the Regents, that at a subsequent session of the Legislature he was granted the extraordinary privilege as a private citizen of speaking on the Senate door upon the appropriation which made Cauthorn llall possible. Suddenly stricken, he was taken from the Senate chamber at Salem by a special train to his death chamber near Corvallis. Of this event M. L. Pipes has written: That was a fitting close to his public career, when he stood upon the Senate floor by invitation, a Senator no more, only a private citizen. Me stood with the shadow of death upon his face and spoke on the very scene of his past struggles one more word in behalf of the college. And then, wounded unto death, he took his armor olT. lit the bill establishing the Oregon Agricultural College as a state school, the location « f the college was left to the community that would-donate a suitable administration building for that purpose. Corvallis rose grandly to the situation. Subscription lists, beaded by Judge John Burnett. Bushrod Wilson, Pundcrson Avery. M. S. Woodcock, Colonel Hoag. Thomas Cauthorn and others contributing $. 00 and like amounts, swelled the fund to $20,000. with which the Administration Building was erected—the best school building in Oregon until that time for the money. The sacrifice required for the Administration Building was so heavy at the time that it came like heart’s blood from the makers of the college. This condition, with subsequent associations. sentiment and history connected with the old edifice, has been such that were the building threatened, the donors and their descendants would rise up with one voice of prayer, as did one in olden days when he came in the woodsman imploring him to spare the old oak. The faculty and thirteen Regents had also installed three industrial courses —Agriculture, Mechanical Engineering and Household Economy, eliminating the old literary courses as rapidly as possible. A farm was purchased for purposes of experimentation. The first Mechanical Building. Cauthorn Hall. Alpha Hall, the Chemistry Building and the octagon barn were erected. The college had about half as many students as the State Normal at Monmouth. or the State University at Eugene. Starting the college anew was like reorganizing America under the second constitution. Everything had to be done over again by the slow process of evolution. At this critical moment the clock struck low twelve. January 30, 180S. and a messenger came from a home where there was crepe on the door and announced to Oregon that after an incumbency of twenty years as president. Doctor Arnold was no more. Doctor John M. Bloss. former State School Superintendent of Indiana, became president. During bis administration the attendance reached 307 students, representing twenty-eight of the thirty-two counties of Oregon. The students were classified as follows: “Post-graduate. 14: fourth year (mechanical). !� : third year. . .4: second year. 03; lir t year. 173; preparatory, so; special students. 2.” These were taught by twenty-two professors and instructors. The graduating class of fifty this year was without precedent f«� r numbers. President Bloss divided the college students into two literary societies, called the Ciceronians and Webster tans. Each society was subdivided into three chapters. The six chapters were placed tinder the supervision of as many professors who joined the students in the culture of a fine literary spirit. Miss Mildred Linville (Patterson) won the interstate collegiate medal for oratory at Seattle, and ustin T Buxton, now Master of the State Grange, was a close contestant for first place in the first intercollegiate oratorical contest held in Oregon, the medal being won by the representative of the State University. The preparatory students were allotted to the Athenian and Madisonian Literary Societies. About this time college yells and games came floating in on the wings of student life. Veil meetings were announced in chapel; and soon “Zip Boom Bee filled the air. I always enjoyed that simple yell of frightful meaning, must be read out of yell may be fully six words for it. But the words their order that the appreciated. “OA- l x Senator Thomas Cant horn when the living It was not un-more active and son. Her also OA-OAC is meaningful: “Bee stands for business: “Boom, a good deal of noise about it ; and Zip. let it conic quick, like a streak of belated lightning. And that's the way the boys played football. But old farmers who stood about as onlookers for the first time did not know what to make of a game which consisted of a little counting, a rush, and a tumbling pyramid of human flesh. However, they were surprised and they usually laughed pyramid arose to its feet with no necks nor limbs broken, common for them to remark that the exercise was a little dangerous thvu the boys were accustomed to while hoeing potatoes at home. To compromise the situation with the farmers, the boys christened their mascot as “Pap Hayseed. and the conduct of the mascot on the field as well as in class was such that he gave the word hayseed a respectability in Oregon which no other state enjoys. This reminds one that at the first game of football a lady with a Madonna face was heard to say: My who starts to college soon, must not join in that desperate foolishness. son came the next year and joined the football squad, and his mother came .’HM) miles and yelled Zip Boom Bee louder than a college baud, while her son helped win in his first intercollegiate game. What that mother did in her enthusiasm has since been repeated so often by other mothers that it is history. Much work fruitful of results was carried on in the little experiment station building now used as the School of Mining Engineering. Analyses were made which had to do largely with the introduction of beet culture and the establishment of the sugar industry in Oregon The School of Pharmacy was installed, the present Mechanical Hall was built to take the place of the one which had been burned down, and to the greenhouses was added the Horticultural Building. Compulsory labor of one hour per day was required of all students in their respective courses. For extra time, students were allowed ten cents per hour. Board with room in the dormitories was announced at $3.50 per week, and the small tuition which had been charged was eliminated. Although tuition now became free, and the resources of the institution were reduced hv that much, the President and the Board of Regents were so careful with the finances during the panic that the college was enabled to decline $5,000 appropriated as a maintenance fund by John M. JiloSs, A. M.. M. I).. President 1S92-1S% tin preceding Legislature. This is probably the only incident of the kind in Oregon history. August l. 1896, the Regents elected Hon. H. B. Miller, one of their number President of the college to succeed Doctor Bloss. who resigned. President Miller. a tine business man of wide acquaintance. administered the finances of the college and directed the experiment station. Professor F. Bcrchtold. A. M., the senior member of the faculty, was chosen dean of the college. The President developed the industrial features of the institution whenever and wherever it was possible. Hence many changes were made in the curricula to that end. The faculty strove to reach the farmers as well as the students, so as to obtain results more immediate. Farmers’ institutes grew more popular, and a large portion of the people were in this way brought into touch with the institution for the first time. The armory and gymnasium was built. The literary societies, which were reorganized and renamed with constitutions of their making, became social as well as literary. In the catalogue, Doctor Margaret Snell, as manager of the two dormitories, made the following announcement regarding the cost of living -at Cauthorn Hall, which brought many new students the following year: “It is confidently believed, from the experience gained in the management of the girls' hall last year, that the cost of living will not exceed six dollais per calendar month of thirty or thirty-one days. The hall will be under the supervision of Lieutenant C. F.. Denter, U. S. A., as commandant. Doctor Thomas M. (latch was president for a decade beginning 1897. During his administration the school was more than doubled in attendance and capacity. The Hall of Agriculture and Waldo Hall were built and the Chemical Building was devoted to Mining Engineering. Courses in Music, Forestry. Civil Engineering. Electrical Engineering and Literary Commerce were introduced. The attendance, which gradually grew to 833. was divided as follows: 745 regular students. 56 short course students, and 32 students taking only music. But let President J. K. Weatherford, who speaks for the Regents, tell you of Doctor Catch: for the Regents are the highest tribunal in college circles: “President Catch, reputed for long experience and classic finish, came to us when we were sorely in need of a guiding mind, and grasped the helm with a firm and steady hand, and with the poise of genius directed its course onward with a well-defined purpose and a definite aim and object in view. He came to Oregon in 1859 as president of the Willamette University, at Salem. Since then lie has been president of Wasco Academy, the University of Washington and the Agricultural College, and all of these institutions are indebted in great part for their eminent success to the directing and guiding mind of Professor Catch. He is one of the pioneers of pioneers in the line of higher education of the Pacific Coast, and now at a ripe age he retires with the honors and with the blessings of many of the younger people of the state, who were by him directed in the pathway of honor and success Under his administration new vigor and new life were felt in every department. To him is due in a great measure the splendid institution that now tells upon the activities and development of the material resources of Oregon. as well as upon the social life and character of its citizens.” Upon Dr. Catch’s resignation. Dr. Kerr was elected to the presidency May 2. 1907. and since his inauguration, in the summer of 1907. the Mechanic Arts Building. Agronomv Building. Y. M. C. A. Building and the new barn have been built. Alpha Hall has been transformed into the Pharmacy Building. and the blacksmith shop into a mining laboratory. At the present time the following buildings are under contemplation: Central Agricultural Building, at a cost of $55,000: central heating plant. $35,000; armory and drill hall. $35,000: greenhouses, $5.ooo. The course in Literary Commerce has been changed to Commerce; also Household Science to Domestic Science and Art. Several new industrial courses have been introduced, and it lion. It. it. Miller (‘resident is .-ls'j? is announced that the standard for entrance to the freshman year next fail will be raised one year. At the time of penning these lines (April 3). the entire registration for the year is 1,340 students, classified as follows: l.ono regular students, 225 short course students. and 59 students in music.—34 bring counted twice. The number of professors and instructors is about To. as against the two forty-four years ago. In his recent biennial report to the Board of Regents, President Kerr said: “In this great work of industrial education. the Oregon Agricultural College is in harmony with the spirit and policy of the best land-grant institutions of the country. Its function and scope arc clearly indicated in the provisions of the federal and state laws under which it is maintained. It is the purpose of the college to meet the needs of the people for a ‘liberal and practical education.’ and to promote the development of the varied resources and industries of the state. I wenty years ago the most enthusiastic predictions of supporters nf technical training were that the Oregon Agricultural College might reach a patronage of five hundred students within a quarter of a century. F.rc the college will have run its first quarter, two thousand students will enroll annually. This is easily computed, for much of it is inscribed in the records. But who is there that can estimate the future with its increasing thousands? What of the second quarter century? What will our commonwealth Ik when stamped with the impress of cultured workingmen and trained housewives going out yearly in great patriotic armies to develop and defend the country? Oregon is beginning to reach higher statehood: and the O. A. C. is choosing a niche in history where she will honor her worthy students and perpetuate the memory of the departed Cauthorn. Arnold. Belknap. Clark and Coote with the names of those whose lives are steadily and surely burning out on her altars. 19 20 21 $toarb of lAegenta • tkt OREGON AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE AND EX PER IM ENT ST ATION Officers Hon.

When a certain old “Grad propounded that query. “Where am I ? upon returning to the scenes of his early exploits, on the campus of his clear old Alma Mater, he propounded a question that from the point of its significance is classical indeed. “Where am Iv’ or “What wonders hath the Lord wrought?’’ i aborf all the poor old graduate can say when his restless spirit calls him back to where still linger the sweetest flowers of memory. No matter where he goes, that question occurs to him. for such changes have been wrought lx th inside and out. visible and invisible, that all he can do is to stand with mouth agape, and exclaim: “Well, it beats old Nico-detnus.” Naturally enough, the old “Grad feels a bit envious of the younger generation, ‘ who are enjoying the privileges that he was unahic to enjoy when he was younger : but still his heart goes forth in exultation and his soul rejoices that he can. at least, claim the hotter and distinction of having once been here and participated in the privileges, such as they were. I’neon sc ottslv he repeats, with variations probably, the words of the poet. “Breathes there a ‘grail’ with soul so dead. Who never to himself hath said. ‘This is my own. my Alma Mater.' After the fir t storm of his amazement has passed, and the agitations of his turbulent mind quieted, he avails himself of the first calm and asks another question. “What agency has been at work that has made all this possible?” If he should address this inquiry to some democratic freshman, some spra-soplristicated sophomore, some ‘dyed-in-the-wool. hard-working ( ?) junior, some faculty-bluffing, aristocratic senior, some “befo'-dc-wab alumnus, some serious-minded professor, or even some plain, every-day citizen of the state, all would with one accord acclaim that the transforming power has been the man at the helm. Hr. William Jasper Kerr. Yes. it has been Dr. Kerr at work, and this only his second year. too. We judge men by their fruits, and with this harvest so early before us. we venture another query. “What will he accomplish iti the years to come? Some one has described him as being a “go-getter. and he surely is. He is a goer, and the way he goes isn’t what you call fast; it is an improvement on “greased lightning. But the way he gets things has caused many a man to assume an upright, silting posture and take careful observations. Just the way lie got the $.’{70,000 appropriation from an Oregon Legislature for a state educational institution is suffic ent to place the laurel on his brow and credit him “the champion getter. But he has obtained other things aside from that which are worthy f our consideration: the bringing or a convention of national college presidents to Portland, and gaining the confidence of the people, the love of his students, and the respect of the alumni: and securing as friends of the institution the press of the state, which hitherto had manifested only a lukewarm attitude. Yes, he has accomplished so much in these two years of labor: he has laid the foundations for the “greater O. A. C.. advanced the standards, strengthened the faculty, and educated the people up to a full appreciation of the Oregon Agricultural College. His consummate capacity for perfect-irg arrangements to bring land-grant colleges into potential and militant 24 President VV. J. Kerr, D. Sc. 25 life, his genius in far-sighted executive administration, in constructive education on the broadest and most complete lines: his realization of educational needs; his broad policy of pushing educational work into channels where it will reach every class, and the remotest neighborhoods; his mental grasp of the possibilities of Oregon and her conditions; his methods of bringing educative agencies into such action as will make for a rapid and triumphant development; his grasp of what the student needs for his personal development: his untiring efYorts in securing and placing before that student the things through which he can work out his own development into a finished and complete citizenship, are the qualities and attributes which have given him success in his work and caused the admiration of his many friends. The building up of a large state school recpiires a genius: for he must build for the future as well as meet the demands of the present. He must be a statesman, as well as a conscientious toiler; an executive, as well as a teacher: a man of sympathies, as well as intellectual culture; a man who is aggressive, whose promise is good, who is in sympathy with and who is absorbed in his work; a man who is sincere, capable, and honest in his dealings with men. It is with pride that the alumni can testify that Dr Kerr is such a man. that their confidence rests with him. that what he does, and is doing, in bringing the Oregon Agricultural College to the front of educational institutions in Oregon, will meet with their heartiest co-operation. We are glad that “our school is ridding itself of the garments of antiquity and is assuming the garb of a promising and modern institution; that it is leaving the past and forging forward with rapid, progressive strides.

Although tlu department worked with limited room and equipment, the class rolls for the first year record a total (exclusive of the short course), of 183 students, receiving instruction in ten different courses. During the present college year the department moved into the newly completed Agronomy Building. Here the finely lighted rooms of the first floor have been so well and so rapidly equipped as to afford facilities for this line of work that arc second to none. Instruction now given regularly in some fifteen different courses, added to as many more courses on special subjects offered to advanced students, completely covers the field of this basic science of agriculture. The purpose of this department is to give its students such mastery of all subjects relating to the soil, field crops, farm mechanics, and farm management as will fit them for the highest type of practical farming or for successful careers in professional agriculture. Enrollment: Men. 353: women. 0. Short Course enrollment: Men. 30; women. 0. Department of SUmmal Sjusbantirp The work in Animal Husbandry is not surpassed by any in its interest to tile student. The registration increases just as fast as arrangements and equipment can be made adequate for handling the classes. The following subjects are covered : Practical care on range and farm, feeding, breeding, judging, marketing, breed history and veterinary science. The class room work consists of lectures, text liook and library study, based on both scientific investigation and practical experience. Judging is taught by actual practice with the animals, supplemented with a limited number of lectures. This work is not only popular with the students and of great practical value, but is unsurpassed as a training of the |� owers of observation and judgment. A number of new courses will be added next year, and the amount of live stock on the farm very much increased Enrollment: Men. 140; women. 0. Department of Dairp 2;usbanbrp Dairy instruction lias l� ecn a feature of the curriculum of the courses in Agriculture at the O. A. C. since the beginning of the school year. 1895-0. at that time a special instructor being engaged. At first the instructor's time was largely employed in other lines of agriculture, but with the begin ning of the school year 1907-08. the Department of Dairy Husbandry was established, being part of the scheme of reorganization of the School of Agriculture. For some years past a special instructor has been engaged during the Short Course instruction, and this year a regular assistant was assigned to the department. Dairy instruction was formerly a required subject in Agriculture and Domestic Science, but at present is offered only as an elective, being required only in the Elementary and Sophomore years in Agriculture. Enrollment: Men. 85; women, fi. Jjorticulturr Horticulture is the most intensified phase of agriculture in our state. It is our richest advertiser, and is destined to supply our richest agricultural products for the world’s markets. The Department of Horticulture is one of the oldest in this institution. From one instructor, offering three courses, its efficiency has increased to a force of six instructors, offering thirty-three courses. The aim of this department is to train specialists for professional or practical work in fruit growing, truck gardening, landscape gardening, and floriculture. In addition to the collegiate courses, a six weeks' winter course is offered. The department is doing all in its power to meet the many problems of the state, and accordingly is conducting many lines of experimental and practical work. Enrollment: Men. 130: women, 1. Department of JJoulttp JfjuSbanbrp The Department of Poultry Husbandry is not yet completely organized but it is planned to fully meet the demand for instruction in another year Active investigation began last year with the purpose of discovering, if pos-sible, a solution t� � the vexed problem of artificial incubation. Some important results were secured and published. These experiments arc beins continued this year. Another important line of work has been taken up. namely, poultry breeding, with greater egg production as its goal. These two problems are of paramount importance in successful poultry husbandry and must be worked out. The department is planning a home study and leading course for farmers and others to begin in the fall, including a chicken-raising contest. Department of Zoology ant) Cntomologp Ibis department was organized in 1889. when Professor F L. Washburn, now Slate Entomologist of Minnesota, was elected professor of zoology and entomology, serving until the fall of 1895. 'I’lie present incumbent assumed charge of the department in September. The old class room, laboratory, and museum, all in one. was then on the third floor of the present Administration Building, another room being added a little later. From these two rooms, no assistants, and small classes, to the present crowded quarters of seven rooms, five assistants, and hundreds of students is a long step, one. however, which is typical of the progress made by every other department. Throughout, the plan has been not to train zoologists, but to provide students with a working knowledge of zoology, physiology, and entomology as a foundation for the work in agriculture, domestic science, pharmacy and related courses. Department of Agricultural Ctjcmistrp Agricultural Chemistry was originally given at the Oregon Agricultural College in connection with a lecture course on general agriculture by the agriculturist. Professor French. In 1891 the small building now known as the Mining Building was erected and equipped for a station chemical laboratory. and from I89ti to 1903. when Agriculture Hall was completed, opportunity was given there for a limited number of students to pursue chemical work along agricultural lines. A separate laboratory for this work has been provided in Agricultural Hall during the present year, and estimates have already been made preparatory to its thorough equipment. A two years’ course with opportunity for graduate work will be offered in this dcpaitmcui beginning with next year. Enrollment: Men. 19. Department of iBatteriologp The Bacteriology Department of our institution had its inception in May. 1897. when Professor I ernot, the present bead of the department, presented the first proposal for supplies and equipment. The first quarters allotted to this branch of the Experiment Station were on one floor of what is now the Horticultural Building, but this space was divided after the disastrous fire that caused the destruction of the three-stoiy armory and adjoining power plant. When the Agricultural Hall was completed. the Department of Bacteriology was established there. At present the room and equipment are wholly inadequate, but it is hoped that in the near future a students' laboratory with individual apparatus may be available. Enrollment: Men. 3t� : women. 27. 31 Miss Van Liew Miss Tobin Miss Greer (Dean) Miss Ewing Miss Van Deusen Although the Department of Domestic Science and Art. as now organized. lias the same aim as it has doubtless had from the beginning of this type of work in the college some fifteen years ago. namely, the fitting of young women in the best possible way to meet life's problems, particularly those of the home which are distinctly her own. the plan for the work of the school is somewhat different. The predominating idea is the correlation of the school work and that of the dormitory, that each may serve the needs of the other. The dormitory work originates and offers the solution to practical problems, such as planning the meal, cooking and serving it; together with the furnishing of the home, caring for it and for the people in it. The student has thus the opportunity of cooking in large quantities without expense to the school, as the products may he used in the dormitory. The school makes the daily problems of the dormitory significant, and saves money for the student and the college by making the practice work tile necessary work of the borne; at the same time making the student feel herself an essential part of her environment. The aim of this correlative plan is. through class work, to qualify the student to dispose of practical matters, such as the selection of a site on the college campus for a house designed to accommodate a moderately sized family. Tile plan of the house is to be the result of the student’s best thought. The scheme f � r decorating and furnishing is also to he the result of class work, curtains, pillows, baskets, household linen, being supplied by class efforts as far as practicable. Kach student during her course lives in this house, perfectly kept by students themselves. She during this time performs every phase of housework from scrubbing the floors to being hostess at a dinner party. The work of such a school has two distinct phases of almost equal importance; and although very different in subject matter, they are closely allied in aim and in their relation to the problems of daily life. Cookery, dietetics, home nursing, and laundry work, on the one hand, arc based upon scientific principles, each contributing to the interest and value of the other: science making the cookery seem much more worth while, the cookery the science more real and necessary in the school curriculum. On the other hand, sewing millinery, embroidery and various other types of hand work, house construction and house furnishing are based upon art principles and demand mental control of motive activities which trives vitality to art. while art brings beauty into the commonplace things of life. . 3 School of engineering ant) JHecfjamc rts Dean (IkA NT Albert Covf.ll.

At that time courses in shop work were also established in accordance with the Act of Congress of IS02, under which the land-grant colleges were organized. With a total of I.’ 3 students in the college at that time, of which only twelve were taking engineering work, the beginning was naturally small, and attended by many hardships. 1'he growth of this work in the college has kept pace with the development along other industrial lines in the institution, not as an adversary, but as a component part in the general system of education adopted by this and similar institutions. 'Hie purpose is to train young men to make the best use of their faculties; to make hand, eye and brain work in harmony for the advancement of the industrial activity of the state. In order to assist those who wish to become skilled mechanics rather than engineers, a two-year course in Mechanic Arts was added last year. I lie leading feature of this work is training in industrial trades, but the student is required to complete the eighth grade of the public school for entrance, and to continue his studies in English, mathematics and general science.

Department of (Electrieal (engineering The time is not far distant when the application of electricity to the requirements of mankind will be so universal that it will be absolutely indispensable to the human race. As our high and widespread civilization of today owes more to the steam engine than to any other agency, so that of the future must depend in a greater degree than that of the present upon the power of the streams, waves, and titles, transposed into electrical energy, and used to light the cities and homes, propel the street cars, drive the machinery of the mills, and transport the vast internal commerce of the land. Work in Electrical Engineering was established in this college a decade ago. in order that the young men of Oregon might receive such training as would enable them to attain positions of responsibility much earlier and to occupy them more successfully, than if they should have bad to make their way unassisted in their chosen work from the bottom of the ladder. After the studies of the first two years, which arc identical with those of Mechanical Engineering arc completed, the strictly professional work is taken up. The several class room, drafting and laboratory courses in Electrical Engineering are laid out with a view of meeting the great demands that will he made in the near future for trained young men in the Northwest. It is hoped that the rapid upbuilding f the lalvoratorv will not he checked so that those who wish to follow additional lines of study, or research, may he able to do so to best advantage. 36 department of ittining (engineering The modern mineral industry in all its many phases embraces, perhaps, a greater variety of technical professions than that of any other. Among the most potent of these are civil engineering as applied to mining, “mining engineering. and mechanical engineering as applied to mineral-chemistry, or metallurgical engineering. It is generally taken for granted that the mining engineer shall, in the first place, he a graduate of some technical school or of some institution Of learning having the lawful authority to confer upon its graduates any degree in engineering or science. This view, however, is contested by certain practical mining men. We would maintain, however, that a good technical education, with lots of practical experience on top of it, is manifestly preferable to lots of practical experience without a good technical education at the bottom of it. The following prescribed course of training and educational requisites are considered indispensable to the successful career of the mining engineer: 1. A mining engineer should, in the first place, he a thorough, practical miner, trained in all the details and methods of underground mining. 2. He should be a technically educated civil engineer, skilled in the science of structural geology, practical mineralogy, mining geology and, by all means, well traveled, consequently a good judge of a mine or prospect. :i. He should Ik? a good mineral chemist, familiar with the fundamental principles of the various ore mills and metallurgical processes, and especially skilled in the work of assaying and making lal oratory tests of ores, thereby proving their values or adaptability for certain metallurgical treatment. ZDepartinrnt of Cibil engineering The field that opens before the civil engineer in the Northwest and especially in Oregon, is extensive and alluring. The next few years will see Oregon and the Northwest lead the entire country in all lines of progress, highway construction, railroad building, development and utilization of water power, irrigation of arid lands, drainage of wet lands, pavement and sanitation of cities, interurban electric railway construction and other lines f development too numerous to mention. The civil engineer will take the lead in this great work and men now in school will have every opportunity for rendering distinguished service to the state and nation. This institution has maintained instruction in the more elementary branches of Civil Engineering for a great many years, but under the present organization the department is only three years old. Nevertheless it is quite a vigorous infant. The enrollment is increasing at a very rapid rate. For the year ending in June. 1007. the enrollment was :t:s: in June. IttOS. it was 7i� .

The School of Commerce of the Oregon Agricultural College has a brief hut creditable history. Courses in shop accounts were offered as far hack as 1 90. in obedience to federal requirements; hut it was not until 1808 that the Literary Commerce Course was organized. With the expansion .of the institution in every direction and in response to the growing demand f«� r leaders in commercial enterprises, the Regents established the School of Commerce in the spring of 1008. As organized at present the school embraces four distinct departments, viz., political economy, political science, business administration and stenography. The School of Commerce is taking a leading part in emphasizing the business side of the farm, the shop, and the household. While special emphasis is placed on work preparatory to commercial pursuits, the fact that there is a business side to every vocation has been recognized by providing courses especially adapted for the farmer, mechanic, housekeeper and professional man. The School of Commerce is located on the third lloOr of the new Agronomy Building. It has ample room and modern equipment for up-to-date work in real office practice and in all phases of commercial education. No department of the institution has enjoyed a more healthy and steady growth. It numliers al� out one-ninth the total enrollment of the institution. Enrollment: Men. 8.'� : women.

In strictly literary institutions, ’he study of the English language and its literature i considered as of greatest importance, much time being given to gaining a comprehensive knowledge of both. Schools of science and technological institutions, which for some years past have shortened the time formerly so generously allotted to the study °f English in all it phases, are gradually returning to the old basis, recognizing the incontrovertible fact that the farmer, the mechanic and the scientist has as much need to express his thoughts correctly, forcibly and pleasingly a has the lawyer, the physician or the minister. The department of English at the Oregon Agricultural College, in common with other departments, is trying to increase its usefulness and is growing apace. W e lost an energetic, successful teacher when Miss Helen Crawford withdrew from the institution: but we have gained strong, effective reinforcement it) the persons of Prof. Ralph llctzcl. from Madison. Wis.. and Miss Maude Williams, from St. Paul. Minn., the former now in charge of the sub-department of Public Speaking and Debate, while the latter is the instructor in Reading. Thus, there are now six instructors where, only a little while ago. there were but two. It will be remembered that our debating team, both men and women, achieved remarkable results last season, winning every intercollegiate debate in which they engaged; and that J. G. Schroeder. our representative in the inter-state oratorical contest, came home from Pullman the victor, laurel-crowned. Prospects are bright again this season, debaters and orators being vigorously at work in preparation of weighty themes for the coming contests. Enrollment: Men. 441: women. I Cm.

Herodotus ascribes its origin. Thales introduced geometry into Greece, where Pythagoras further developed it and discovered many important propos t ions. Plato taught it in his academy and Euclid compiled all the propositions into the thirteen honks that have been the basis of all geometrical works for over 2 000 years. Trigonometry, which is indispensable in astronomy, physics, and the various branches of engineering, was used by the Egyptians in measuring the pyramids. The Greeks developed it: Hindus ami Arabs added to it and improved it till finally it reached its present form. The name of Archimedes is connected with the beginning of Calculus, which is a method of calculating nuantities whose value is constantly changing. Little was done to develop Calculus till the seventeenth century: and to one who appreciates its value it i little wonder that science lias made so much more progress since that time than it had in the ages past.

Lake Miss Helen (iilkcy Department of JForetftrp The problem of protection, regeneration and best utilization ot forests are becoming yearly more important to our state. The rapid development and growth of the nation require an enormous increase in forest products, and it is important to Oregon, which has such a fertile source of wealth in her forests, that she utilize these to best advantage. To accomplish this, men who are educated along these lines are necessary. This training is provided by the college. All forest problems are considered and discussed, together with the best methods of solution. The department of forestry has been established in the college for six years, but this is only the second year of the course. P'nrollment: 20.

Uatin Department The Latin Department opens the gate to Caesar to all students of the college: once within, few or none ever regret the advantage. They wonder which of the two ways narrow and difficult’1 the Helvetii will select. They glory with Caesar in his tenth legion and are by his side when, snatching a shield from a soldier, he advances to the front and gains the day. The voice of Cicero calls the student on into the temple of Jupiter, and amid the Romans, “lords of the world and toga wearing race.” he hears Quo usque tandem ahutcre. Catilina patientia nostra?” During the third year of Latin. Virgil, with his beautiful similes of bees, ants and oak strong with the strength of years. charms the student. There is always interest in the history of Troy and the shipwreck of Aeneas: always tears for the death of Priam and the sorrows of Dido. As the fourth book is finished the student can say of Virgil as Aeneas said of Dido: What age was so happy as to produce thee? Who were the parents of so illustrious an offspring? As long as rivers run into the sea. as long as shadows shall flit over the hollows on the hills, as long as heaven feeds the stars, your honor, name and praise shall live to whatever climes 1 am called. Dr. W. T. Harris says that Latin is far from being a “dead language. but is quite alive in science and the arts. What is called a complete English dictionary contains three Latin and Greek derivatives to one word from a Saxon source. It is a matter of every-day experience to see students not acquainted with Latin make a mistake in spelling or in identifying the parts of a long technical word, and—what i more—a mistake in getting hold of the shade of meaning indicated. It remains true and will remain true with us that Latin must he studied because it is still living in the English language and is the scientific vocabulary. 47 Mrs. Ida Kidder Miss Ina True ®be library Tlie library, along with many other departments of the college, has heen a migratory institution. It began its modest career on the third floor of the Administration Building in room d| , as a gift from a little Corvallis city library to the Adelphian Society, which, in turn, gave it to the college. During its slow growth it migrated from the third floor to the northeast corner room of the first floor, and later to the rooms now occupied by the business and registrar’s offices. During the summer of 1908 it was moved to its present quarters, the old chapel and the two adjoining rooms in the north end of the second floor. The librarians who have served the college arc the following: Lois Stewart. V. W. Smith, Fanny Getty. L. A. John- son. A. J. Stimpson. Frank Edwards, L. W. Oren. VV. L. Patterson and R. J. Nichols. The library at present consists of al out 12.000 volumes, of which .1.000 are government documents. The books arc classified according to the Dewey decimal classification, and catalogued with a card catalogue, containing author, title and subject cards. All students have free access to the reading room, where the periodicals, reference books and a small collection of culture books are kept. The faculty, graduate students and senior class have access to the stack rooms where they have freer use of the bonks for their more advanced investigations. The year has shown a gratifying increase in the use of the library: and since reasonably large additions of books are to be made during the coming year, the outlook is encouraging. Library Mrs. Ida Axgei.ine Kidder. A. B. Assistant Ina Content True department of draining In 1000, when the department of drawing was ere ated and made a separate department, the outlook, from the viewpoint of equipment, was not altogether encouraging. There were chairs and easels, enough and more than enough, possibly, to accommodate all classes, hut casts were few and badly worn from hard and careless usage. These models included the head of Moses, busts of Longfellow. I ennyson. Byron and one or two others, and also some feet and two ears. With this equipment we started our year’s work, and as the ears showed the least wear, we chose them to begin with. That first freshman class was a brave one and did as well as could Ik. expected under the circumstances. Going hack now. 1 recall the look in their faces as they sat down each day to those ears , i 1 recall their look after about two months of ears — 1 | It was a look of wanting to run into the next country. Ul A new lot of casts, many of which still hang in room .‘to. was ordered at once from the East. There were about 120 students enrolled in the department that year, and each of the following two years there was an increase. With better equipment, more efficient work was done. During the years l903-4-.j Miss Williams and Miss Levcrett had the work of the department. In 1906 and 1907 more casts were added to the collection and quite a num! er of still life pieces were purchased. Also, some nice pieces were presented to the department. New courses were offered for students in engineering, a class in advanced drawing was organized. and as a result the enrollment showed an increase over any previous year. With 1907 and tons came a greater increase In the number of students A course in scientific drawing was added, and the department was given a student assistant. This year more technical work has l� ecn added to the course of study. The department has an assistant from the Chicago Art Institute and offers. in addition to the regular courses, work in water and oil colors and drawing in charcoal. pencil and pen and ink from life.

Miss Houston Prof. Angel I Miss Williams Mr. Heater ' t:,- The ideal of the Department of Physical Education is to provide opportunities for good healthful exercise to all students. The Elementary. Fresh -incn and Sophomore students are required to take two hours each week throughout the college year, hut many upper-classmen also avail themselves of the gymnasium privileges. In addition to the more formal work, such as drills and calisthenics, recreative features of physical training arc emphasized. The girls are taught folk dancing, aesthetic exercise and various forms of gymnastics in which musical accompaniment is one of the features. Games are also taught ami class teams of basket-ball are organized and coached. The men. in addition to the regular required work, are given opportunities for all-round exercises that are so varied that every man may find something for which he is fitted in temper and physique. In the fall, football, of course, is the most important of the athletic activities, and under expert coaching, many men arc initiated into the gridiron game. Class teams are formed and the class championship is battled for. During the same season cross-country men arc speeding across the hills in preparation for the annual cross-country run for the long distance championship. In the winter basket-ball and wrestling find numberless devotees and the interest in these two games has been rewarded by splendid successes by our college teams. Instruction is also given in boxing and fencing. When the thermometer begins to rise and the baltuv days of early spring invite the students to the big out-doors, the running track and baseball diamond are crowded with eager participants, and from the many men who try out athletes are developed who bring honor and credit to their Alma Mater. The Department of Physical Education has general control of these activities and it is the desire of those in charge to direct the student l� odv along the lines that lead to health and strength, and with this general aim. the work in physical education, while well prepared for those things that arc necessarily formal, emphasizes all recreative forms of exercise.

A. department of jflihtarp Science ant) tactics The court of last resort of nations is war. When all other means have failed in the solution of political and commercial questions, armed force is invoked. During periods of peace nearly all humanity comes to the belief that armed men are unnecessary and that all questions of whatever nature should he adjusted by courts of national or international jurisdiction. When least expected a conflagration of violence may start; one nation may demand from another what the latter refuses to concede: a political revolution may be started, and the rights or territory of a nation may Ik invaded. These and often similar things cause an immediate resort to arms. Military strength and military preoaredness are the surest guarantors of peace. To disseminate military instruction throughout the United States was sought by Congress in its earliest provision for agricultural colleges. Being thus a fundamental part of the college, the Military Department seeks to train the undergraduate male student in those essential qualities of mind and heart that will render him an obedient, law-abiding, self-respecting and patriotic citizen. He is taught that self-control precedes control of others and that soldierly qualities with clear thinking and direct acting are invaluable assets in any man's character. 54 3 n Jfflemoriam George Coote................Professor of Died September 12. 1908 Wilmam Moore Getty...............

Sciikokhek, ’On Not long ago I observed the setting of tlu- sun behind the horizon of the Western hills. It was a glorious sunset. I tried to picture the beauty 4 it in words, but I failed completely. So incomparable, so inspiring, so matchless was it that all I could do was to repeat the one sentiment. It is wonderful!” There were the great green hills off to the West with their towering fir trees, silhouetted against the sky. In the Bast there rose majestic Ml. Hood, whose downy, white coat was all aglow: and it seemed to rise higher and higher as the sun sank lower and lower, as if to catch the last sunbeam that pranced upon its hoary sides. The faithful old mountain stood there like a lily with a heart of fire, and I thought that even Mt. Olympus, when arrayed in all the glory of its ancient splendor, was but an ill-fitting comparison. All along the visible line of the peaceful Cascades little patches of snow that bad evaded the seductive charms of the noon-day sun. were bathed in the golden light. And there amid these darker backgrounds of the Cascade mountains stood that proud, ancient sentinel of the Gods. Mt. Hood, with its saffron-tinted mantle, while the clear, blue .sky served as a canopy for all. Even as I looked to the East I could see the peaceful, silvery Columbia rolling and winding its way to the sea. it. too. reflecting a portion of that Western sunset. Little birds twittering amid tlu houghs were rejoicing with me. and here amid all that gorgeous scenery, unaided by the hand of man. Nature was rendering her sweetest symphony. The sun was sinking lower and lower and all the heavens were aglow with splendor. Little white clouds racing across the skies were kissed with the golden rays and seemed to blush. For a moment the sun nestled on the crest of a hill and seemed to reflect over the achievements of the day. very much as the tired soul ponders over his little sins of omission and commission at the close of every day. Like a hall of fire it appeared, hut only for a moment, then it paid its last adieu to the rejoicing. bns world, and I saw it no more, only the glorious afterglow that followed, which filled my heart with hope lor the promise it gave me f the coming of another day. What a multitude f thought coursed through my mind: I stood as one transfixed. Revealed in the setting of the sun. I saw hope; love, truth, life, goodness, the Divine: and 1 felt that immortality was a living truth. Daddy Conte, as we fondly used to call him. has had the sunset of hi life, hut a beautiful afterglow is apparent. This mortal transition called ’death is not the end of life, for we still continue to live by the things we have wrought of good or gain, by the deeds we have performed, the kind- 57 nesses we have extended, the songs we sang, the lessons we taught, the inspirations we have afforded and the examples we have set. All men are not called upon to he cornerstones, nor the large conspicuous ones: we each must he content where the Master Mason places us. whether it he as a stone in the tilling, of the foundation, or of the corner. The main thing is that we till our part well and uncomplainingly. “Daddy Coote tilled his niche well. He wrought his portion well and his life has been a benediction, for he radiated his individuality nobly and well. Many a man and woman will have to thank him for their appreciation of Nature in her beauty and simplicity. It is the shrine of gratitude that has been erected in the hearts of all those who knew him: a shrine upon whose altar the tires of love will be eternally kindled. He left a legacy, too. and it is a monument erected to his memory, a monument that will cause his name to he remembered by all who ever tread the sacred precincts of dear old C). A. C.. it is the College Campus. 58 SI tribute to tljc Hate $3rof. George (Cootr We. your committee appointed to draw up resolutions of condolence on tin death of Prof. George Coote. beg leave to offer the following tribute: It has been ordained by Nature and Nature’s God that nothing mundane shall exist for always. The beautiful flower, the graceful shrub, even the stately towering tree. nay. the adamantine rock itself, all shall decay and perish after having lived their brief span of life and fulfilled the purpose for which they were called into existence by the Creator of all things. What is true of all Nature is no less true of man. Ife appears on the arena of life: disports himself through happy childhood; performs the work allotted to hint during his mature years: enjoys the fruits of his endeavors in ripe, serene old age and then is ready to leave his work to stronger arms and returi . content and trustful, to the bosom of bis Maker. Such, in substance, was the life and work of our departed friend and co-laborer. Prof. George Coote. who for nearly two score years has walked and worked among and with us. giving the best that was in him. his time and talents, for the upbuilding and advancement of the institution that was so dear to his heart. Ife was the gentlest of men. kindness personified. Men and women to him were as many flowers, whose proper growth and development could most effectually be encouraged by kind treatment, compassionate love and tender regard. He was the friend of every true man and noble woman, the ch. nipion of all that is good and honorable. If be saw any sorrow or beard of any woe. his sympathetic heart would prompt him to render immediate relief. Thoroughly conversant and temperamentally lovingly in harmony with the subjects he taught, he was enabled to fire with zeal and enthusiasm the minds and souls of those students whose good fortune it was to attend his lectures. He had a perfect passion for all that was symmetrical and beautiful in nature, and the groups of trees which he planted, the shrubbery, the beds of flowers flanked by immaculate winding walks piercing every part of the spacious campus will serve for a long time to come as worthy monuments of bis industry ai d skill and of duty well done. In bis demise the institution has lost a tried and loyal defender, his co-workers in the faculty a true and kind companion and the students a faith fnl friend and adviser. W'liat hi family and immediate relatives have lost m his departure to regions celestial, cannot be measured. They have the fullest sympathy of this t dy in their present bereavement. May their now jMiignant grief be assuaged and may they lake consolation in the glorious fact that Earth lias no sorrow that Heaven cannot cure. F Bkrchtom). G. A. Covei.l, E. R. Lake.

The “exit looms up before us. (dancing hack over the record of our class, we ask ourselves. What i all this worth that we are about t � leave behind us, for the criticism of our fellow stu- dent! Have we measured up to our estimate of what a class should be? Has reciprocity found a place among our tenets? Have we characterized ourselves by zealous activity? While we realize as a class we probably have attained no great degree of perfection, we have steered our ships with j. u a c high ideal- as our guiding stars. As with all classes who have gone before, the tendencies of our class are its attributes. It remains for those who follow to estimate the merit of these tendencies. The organization of the class of “Naught Nines was perfected in the old chapel of the “Ad Building early in our Freshman year. To His Excellency, the Eight Hon. 1 . H. Cale. Albany. Linn County. Oregon. I . S. A . Western Hemisphere. Planet Earth, we entrusted the dictatorship of this unsophisticated ! ody. The honor was ably placed as our record as Freshmen show. In consequence of our ardent enthusiasm the Algae of the fountain were well distributed on the imported broadcloth of the suits of the male member. of our class. A class rush on the campus by moonlight, and a “rooky party” in the library are two great events of that year which will furnish material for our fireside reflections for years to come. hi our Sophomore year we came back, fully impressed with our tremendous importance, and eager for the subjugation of the underbeings. But the untimely and lamented departure of our old classmate New Jersey neutralized our ardor until it reached such low ebb that it threatened to degenerate into actual timidity. Not for long, however, for Kate Moore. The Fair Haired. The Jolly, donned the royal purple and supplied the necessary enthusiasm for reanimation and gradual full recovery. We each invested in a crimson sweater, a “spicy red cap. and applying to all inanimate objects we met a superlhtity of paint and fancy numerals paraded the campus with haughty mien irreproachable, yet irresistable. In this spirit we easily won the Class Championship in track. The Junior to his surprise found us more inclined to conversation than formerly, and zealous, we were. too. The distinguished title. King of the Juniors, was unanimously conferred upon T. J. Aitizen. whose oval head ami clear conception of things pulled the class out of many a difficulty during the year. One of the principal features of the year was the compiling of the '09 Orange, and palming it off on an unsuspecting and innocent public. The stories of the banquet of the Naught Nines to the Naught Eights and the Junior Prom, are often recounted, and never grow stale in the telling. In the cold gray dawn of the Senior year, we find Colonel R. II. Rodgers at our helm. Of all the members of the class, he was the one to steer 11s past the rough ptaces and land us safely in the port of graduation. By honest application, stratagem, hot air. and other seductive means, we have eluded the first dangerous reefs, called “flunks. and are now in the peaceful waters of the last semester. Glorious spring is here at last with a hurst of splendor, and the Seniors are holding forth in the shade of the old trysting tree in riotous revelry. Their sanguine idealism Kate Moore Thus.

A. C. a new class, destined for a time to he in bondage, but dedicated to the axiom that all college men are created free and equal (except the Rook). “We are now engaged in a struggle of gigantic proportions with English. Chemistry. Mathematics and ‘Dutch' to test whether this class or any class so dedicated and buffeted by adverse winds and heavy swells can. through four long years, brave the breakers of college life. “Here comes Vince Cianella.” cried “Beef—he who was famed as a mighty warrior—“it is said that as a Rook he recognized no superior in rough-housing. It was known that Vince was always there with the warm breeze, so “B. L.” called out: “Vince, it’s up to you to give us a history of our Freshman year.” Vince never gives up under ordinary circumstances. as his fame as a debater will prove, but in this case he was forced to think twice before speaking. “Well, to begin at the beginning. said Vince, conforming to B. L.'s wishes, “our class history really commenced in the Old College Chapel in September. when we conducted several Sophomores to the door and President Catch intervened to save the Sophs’ lives, although previous to that several from our midst had been subjected to the water retire. Likewise we had previously braved the formidable glances and still more formidable words of our dear friend J. B. These ordeals over with, we were members of the class of ip to. “As Freshmen we were not very conspicuous in college affairs, although several of our members “carved their names on the college records and will be remembered as long as history lasts. “Tubby Wolff, he who won fame as an athlete, was our first king. Under his directions we gathered material for the biggest rally ever seen on our campus, to that time, at least. In track work luck was against us; nevertheless we were beginning to be known. Moved, seconded and carried that we give Cianella a vote of thanks. said “Corky Province. “Who is the next victim? asked the cvcr-inquisitive Lou Billings, glancing around the group. “Mere’s Max McCall, who is ever famed as an expounder of facts of a high order. said Roberts; “the man that talks Spanish with an Irish accent. Without any urging. Max. for he was ever ready to display his knowledge, began: “Shortly after our return the following September our forces were marshalled under the able leadership of “Fv Billings. Under his generalship we laid waste the entire Freshmen empire and so great had our power become that the upper classmen saw Carl Wolff 92 Kstclle Olsen tit to promulgate the 'Emancipation I‘roclamation.’ after which the Kooks came out into the sunlight oftener. On the departure of Miss Olsen from our midst. I. because of my natural ability, succeeded to the throne. Our royal record keeper left us and in her place we elected Miss Carlson. “We achieved much fame in interclass athletics during this year. Although we lost the track meet we gained much fame in basket-ball and baseball under the captaincies of Hamilton and Reed, respectively. Though we had only one dcbatei in collegiate work, he was a team by himself, as the record of ‘Weary' Wilson, our ‘whirlwind debater proves. “In intercollegiate athletics we were well represented, as the records of Wolff, Pendergrass. Cooper. Kelly, Gagnon. Jamison. Horton and Crews go to prove. “That the class party was a grand success, is agreed to by all who attended.” Moved, seconded and carried.” said “Corky” again, for he had made a record for himself at that line of work, “that we extend to McCall a vote of thanks.” “Now who is the man to relate our Junior history?” asked Dick” Skibbe. the handsome man of the class. “Here is Brcithaitpt.” said Fleser. the mathematical wizard, whom we elected treasurer and who carried a receipt book in every suit of clothes and would dun a man for class dues at church.” Iloppic” unceremoniously began a retreat, but was recaptured, and with a little prompting he began: “Our Junior year is but half gone, yet we have accomplished much. The football team of 1910 won for us the interclass laurels. Among our classmates we find ‘Farmer’ Williams, who is known far and wide as the champion ‘fusser of the 1910's. The Orange board is removing its hair by degrees. Davidson is making his mark as a parliamentarian and a conductor of class destinies. Miss Edwards was chosen to assist him. with Miss Wells as Royal Scribe. We can see the beginning of the end now. It will be but little over one more year when we shall ’go up against the real thing.' As to whether we shall become Edisons. Mcndeljeffs or Wilsons or till only insignificant positions, such as those of governors or I'nited States senators, we cannot tell, but each and every one of us will do his best.” “Great Caesar’s ghost! Fellows, it is 11 p. m. and no lessons prepared for tomorrow. said Abbott, the industrious and indefatigable man of the class. After a few minutes the erstwhile crowd was broken up and scattered over the campus. In after years when we are fighting the more serious problems of life we will never forget the debt we owe our faculty, and let none of us cease to remember that our actions, no matter of what nature, will relkct on O.

After the first few weeks « f college life, and with the assistance of a few “missionaries, who had been left over from the previous year, the class of 1911 was organized, with “Bob Francis as King. That our spirit was strong and mighty was shown by the size of the pile of wood which was gathered for the annual rally bonfire, and the collection of valuable property which it contained. Yes. the college fence was taken, but we paid for it. and it is true that some of the most active of the “bunch were given a night’s lodging in the City Hall, but the whole trouble originated from an unfortunate misunderstanding of orders, and. though ending in-gloriously. no reputations were tarnished. The next important event was our first class “spread.” We were horribly shocked at the treatment we received at the hands of the Sophomores, but the event can now be looked upon with pleasure, for the acquaintances that we formed that night while wc were inveloped in the fumes of 1L.S and being besmeared with shoe blacking have proved to be our friends. Later in the year we won the interclass track meet by a good majority of points. This gave us an honor which other classes have liecn unable to gain in their Freshman year. Not until we were Sophomores, however, did we fully realize the latent ability which had so long remained dormant. When the time for class election arrived the material from which we were to choose our class officers was of such a superior quality that it was with great difficulty we finally selected our present leaders. 134 Early in Octol� cr, after the trees had lost most of their yellow leaves and the squirrels and hces had finished gathering their store of food, the talent in certain members of the class began to make itself known. Dusty” Miles succeeded in winning the title of Colonel of the Rooks” as a result of the able assistance which he rendered when he impressed a detail of Freshmen to do guard duty at Waldo Hall, and Scott, with the aid of a number of assistants, won fame as an artist. Ole” became known as the class naturalist, as a result of the aptness shown at learning the habits of the Rooks.” and Lige” Philips won the medal he wears at spinning baseball yarns. Claude Thompson has the distinguished honor of being more popular with the ladies than any of the Seniors, even, and as an originator of new commands McRobbie is the best ever. None have as yet been adopted by the war department, however, hut they have all been tried and work well Duke Rulifson is known as the most popular man in the class, and ‘Germany” Schultz, the Sophomore fashion plate. the most handsome. There is difference in opinions as to who is. the most popular and most beautiful lady, though Chief says there is no question about that. We are not prepared to say why the ladies think that Joe Me. is engaged, or why Miss Williams thinks that football is the only game.’ It is rumored that a certain member of the class is frequently seen dodging about the campus with one who is interested in art.

The class of 1912 has determined to excel the record of the preceding Freshman class, and have the good fortune to he guided by a few motley missionaries left over by them. We have elected to our cabinet a body of officers who cannot be excelled, and it is with pride that we speak of M. B. Gill ert as our president. Lizzie Buchanan as vice-president. Main Cady as secretary, George T. Startzoff treasurer, and last but by no means least. Ralph V. Hawley and Julius Specs our sergeants-at-arms. Our greatest accomplishment was achieved when, on the first of February, we assembled in the armory and held our annual party. On that memorable night our worthy rivals, the Sophomores, emerged from their dark and forbidding holes, armed with shoe | olish and H ■,S. They even went so far as to soil their lily-white fingers in their efforts to besmear our faces with the black dope. L'pon discovering that their efforts to deprive ns of light and also to fill the room with the fragrance of H _.S were dismal failures, they contented themselves with quietly retiring to their several domiciles. Despite all these things, our party was one of great success, and when we are mighty Seniors we may look back with pleasure to our first Freshman party. During our short but pleasant introduction to college life we have attained that which is the ambition of every Freshman class—by causing the Sophomores to bite the dust in our annual football game, which we won by the score of x-0. Not content with this, we have resolved to accomplish even more. Knowing full well the value and necessity of a college education, it is with strong hearts and a firm determination that we “seek to spell the mystic charm of knowledge. OFFIC F.KS M. B.

A. C.. the Alumni Association extends greeting. Never before in the history of the Oregon Agricultural College have her prospects been brighter. With the increased number of able professors, instructors and assistants: with the new buildings and modern equipment, and with the rapidly increasing number of students, she is destined to become one of the greatest institutions of the West. O. A. C. has an Alumni of which any such institution may well be proud. Many of her graduates hold positions of trust and honor throughout the United States and in foreign countries. Some are heads of departments, professors and instructors in other institutions of learning; some are prospering in business enterprises of their own: many are engaged in scientific farming, and their influence is widely felt in bringing the position of the farmer to a higher and broader plane. At our reunion in June. I DOS. a large number of the Alumni were present and great enthusiasm was manifested. Since that time county associations of our Alumni are being formed all over the state. The next annual meeting of the association will he held during commencement work. June l‘ . l'.� o«� . when a large, enthusiastic meeting is expected.

C. cadets took place. On this particular morning there came, walking rapidly up the college walk. Captain U. G. McAlexander. the man whom tin students have come to consider one of their best friends and advisors among the faculty. It was upon this first official visit to the institution that Captain McAlexander learned of his detail for duty here. We would not say that the detail pleased him in every way. hut it was a welcome change from his strenuous duties on the general staff, which were too great for his physical condition. As a hoy in Minnesota I’lvsscs Grant McAlexander heard of West Point and thought that there was the place where he wanted to go. As a youth this ambition was still rife, and when, by the purest accident, our present commandant received an appointment to the United States military academy he was not slow to accept it. leaving the University of Kansas, where he then was. lie was graduated from the United Stales military academy in iss7. During the next four years the young lieutenant saw active service on two occasions, during the summer « f IS8!) and the winter of 1800-1. the latter against the Sioux Indians. In 1891 he was detailed as instructor of military science and tactics at the Iowa Wesleyan University, where he remained for four years in'this capacity, during which time he was promoted to first lieutenant. Three years later, in May 1898. shortly after the outbreak of the Spanish-American war. he was appointed captain of volunteers. The Captain was largely responsible for the restoration of order in the railway service at 'Tampa, and. as quartermaster of the First Division, under General Kent, he labored indomitably and unceasingly during the Cuban campaign. As quartermaster most of his own work was done at night, leaving him the day in which to get into the fray, and it was during the battle of Santiago, July 1st to 3rd. that his work won for him the recommendation for a major-ship because of “conspicuous gallantry in battle. In March. 1899. he was promoted captain in the Thirteenth Infantry, in which regiment he wa? adjutant for four years—1901 to 1905. during which time he wrote a history of the Thirteenth Infantry. Captain McAlexander served two tours of duty in the Philippine islands. During his latter tour in the Philippines. 1900. he was detailed to the general staff and ordered to Washington for duty. While performing this duty, which in itself is considered a high honor among military men. he was designated as inspector « f military departments in colleges in 1907. It was on this tour of inspection, during which he examined the military work in twenty-two schools and colleges, that we first had the pleasure of seeing him and of making his acquaintance. Two years have rolled by. and it is unanimously agreed among the cadets that we could never have had better luck at O. A. C. than to have Captain McAlexander among us. We appreciate his tact, efficiency, and good influence as much as does the war department, for we are pleased to note that the report of last year’s inspecting officer has been filed with Captain Mc-Alexander s efficiency record as showing what a marked improvement his influence has had upon the military department of O. A. C. We know not how long it will be our good fortune to have Captain McAlexander with us, but we trust that it will be several years yet. We like him. We respect him. We admire him. W'e trust him. and we arc proud of him. Soon our friend and advisor will be wearing the gold leaf instead of the ‘two bars. and we congratulate you. Captain McAlexander, and wish you good luck and good fortune wherever you may be. R. K. Broimk, 08. 15S Capt. I’. G. McAlcxandcr. 13tb Infantry. I’. S. Army 1.S9 O. A. C.

Landis 'fli 1 Clje Student Assembly Of Clje (Oregon Agricultural College It is the object of this organization to arrange the various departments of student enterprises and activities and put them on a centralized basis, so that united effort and action may he secured upon all questions relating to the welfare of the Student Body at all times. The governing of all these student enterprises, such as athletics, debate, oratory and publications, is covered in detail by the Constitution of the Assembly. This clearly outlines the duties of the various officers anti the disposition they shall make of their work. This year an amendment to the Constitution was adopted which will tend to bring about a complete change in the management of athletics. Undoubtedly the success of this system is assured because «� f the unanimous support it has received already from the students. Instead of having one general manager the power will Ik vested in an Athletic Board, which consists of twelve members. The membership of the board is composed of a President, three student members who are not members of any athletic team, the captains and managers of the four major sports, namely, football, basket-hall, track work and baseball. The merits of this system are unquestionably good, as it gives a much wider student representation pertaining to all athletic matters. The general officers of the Student Assembly arc the following: A Presi- dent. three Vice-Presidents and a Secretary, all of which are elected from the Student Body at large. These constitute the executive committee, the duties of which are to call meetings of the Student Body and to audit and check all reports, financial and others, from the various organizations that come under the jurisdiction of the Student Assembly.

The papers presented and the discussions which followed have at all times been interesting and profitable. Vet it has been found that, with but one organization, the students of the two branches of engineering could not work to the best advantage. A little over a year ago the electrical students organized a branch of the American Institute of Electrical Engineers. Recently, through the efforts of Prof. T. M. Gardner, it has been made possible for the mechanical students to organize a branch of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers. The A. S. M. E. is the most conservative and perhaps the most inlluential engineering society in America. It is expected that the Engineering Association will I - superseded by the O. A. C. branch of the A. S. M. E. The local branch will he supplied with the proceedings of the parent society. This will give plenty of material for study and discussion, as the proceedings contain papers hv some of the foremost engineers of the country. Although known by a different name, the work of the Engineering Association will he continued, and under the guidance of the A. S. M. E. it is cer tain that the bi-monthly meetings will Ik of great interest to all. ROLL Chapman A. K. . . . Gianeli.a, V. P.......... Zimmerman. II. R. . Buchanan. E. C. ... Becker. F. R. . ... Autzen.

Valuable experience is gained, which, if not perpetuated in some manner, would die with the individual, thus being of no benefit to the profession at large. Then, again, many of the best engineers are not. or have not the time to become, authors. The different engineering societies bring together prominent engineers, keeping them in touch with the progress of the world and making a permanent record of their most valuable experience. The O. A. C. Engineering Association was organized last year, that the students might early form the habit of studying and comparing the current engineering literature and development. By means of talks and debates on every phase of civil engineering work, combined with occasional lectures by prominent engineers, we have so far succeeded in maintaining a keen intorst in association proceedings. It is the hope that as the association grows and becomes more firmly established. an engineering library of current and standard literature may be maintained. ROLL Streiux. John C. .

It has on its roll the names of all those prominent in the electrical world, and the good it does in giving to the profession the latest discoveries in the electrical field can only he fully estimated by those who receive this valuable information. A local branch of the above organization was established at this college last year. The programs of the local branch consist of studying the proceedings of the National Institute, of reading original papers by members, of listening to talks by members «� f the faculty. Contrary to the practice of most engineering organizations, the social side of the program is no: entirely neglected in tile local branch. The membership consists of associate, student and local members. Associates receive the advance copies, monthly proceedings and the bound volumes « f these proceedings; the student member receives the advance copies and monthly proceedings, while the local members receive only the advance copies. All have the right of ballet in the local branch. All persons interested are cordially invited to attend the meetings of the local branch. THE MEMBERS ARE Gardner. Prof. T. M. Hawi.ey. Prof. E. V.

Its members also strive to create mutual fellowship Ire-tween the students who take up the various branches of this extensive subject. Since, as a result of the broadening of the old course into several distinct courses, no one can take all of the work offered in agriculture at O. A. C.. the club is enabled to till a place peculiarly its own. 'fhe weekly or fortnightly discussions serve to bridge the gaps between the various branches and give t � all a broader, more general knowledge of scientific agriculture than could otherwise be obtained, hi addition, these discussions give the students practice in expressing their thoughts before their fellows, practice which is of inestimable value, and which cannot he had in the class room, or even in literary societies. It has been the privilege of the club from time to time to listen to visitors who have made a success of their particular line of agriculture. During the past year several persons of local, and at least one of national, reputation. F. II Scribner, a leading dairyman of Wisconsin, have so favored us. The club is largely responsible for the publication known as the Oregon Countryman. Every effort is being put forth to make it a success. Organized in UH)f with a membership of eighteen, the club ha steadily grown until we now have fifty-six active, three associate and two honorary members. AGRICULTURAL CLUB MEMBERS Koeiiek. James .

Quite a number responded to this call and the Lewclling Club was the result. I he object of the meeting was to establish an association in which students could discuss horticultural topics, and similar allied questions which could not In- brought up in the class room. It was decided to have no constitution or by-laws, no strict rules of attendance, no fines, no officers, no regular business meet ings. but to have an executive committee, selected by the members, whose duty would Ik to look after making out programs and a few minor details. This plan of organization, which is modeled after the Lazy Club f Cornell University, allows the club to be very liberal in its policy. There was long a need of special organizations of students in the different departments of the Agricultural course, and in helping to supply this want the Lewclling Club took the initiative. After due consideration, the members decided to name the club in honor of Henderson Lewclling the pioneer horticulturist of Oregon, who did so much toward advancing fruit growing in this state. Meetings are held on Monday evening of each week, at which time a program is rendered. During the short period of its existence, the club has hern addressed by prominent fruit growers from different parts of the state; these talks have been � f much value to the student. The success of the club is due. in no small measure, to the untiring interest taken in the meetings by the members of the horticultural faculty. From the beginning the attendance has been on the increase, and the meetings are always interesting.

Jforest Club The “Forest Club is an association of students and instructors formed for the purpose of studying the forestry interests of the state. It meets in tlie forestry headquarters the tirst and third Wednesdays of each month for the discussion of current forestry literature, legislation, news items and general progress movements pertaining to forestry, forest service, forest products and the allied industries, lumbering and the lumber trade. All regular students taking the forestry course are active members of the club and are required to participate in its work. Other persons interested in the club work, who have rendered distinguished service in promoting the interests of forestry, may become associate, honorary or patron members. All persons interested in the club work, or in the general progress of forestry, are welcome to attend the meetings. Several limes (luring each school year the club has an opportunity of hearing men of experience and authority discuss forestry subjects. The Forest Club is closely connected with the Camera Club, and on several occasions the members have held joint meetings, at which the Camera Club displayed many beautiful slide views. The Forest Club has made a very encouraging growth since it was first organized, the increase being nearly son per cent during the past year. In fact the growth has been so great that our present headquarters are almost inadequate for the accommodation of all the members at the regular meetings. The club hopes to build, in the near future, a log cabin to be used as a permanent home. Some of the important topics of discussion were “The New I'ses of Waste Products. “Pulp Wood Industry. “Railroad Ties. “Sea-Going Rafts. “Forests of Oregon. and a series of general discussions on the forest fires and their damage during the year 1008. A great deal of interest is manifest in the club, as well as throughout the country at large, in questions pertaining to the preservation and management of our great natural resource, the forests.

Iii obtaining a higher education we often forget to take into account the impiovemcnts that are going on all around us. Thus the new laws that arc being made, new ways and means of doing things that are being instituted. and other present-day advancements are often overlooked. Comprehending how necessary it is to keep abreast with the times in this day and age of the world, the Pharmacy students in 1900 organized the Pharmaceutical Association of (). A. C. At first, as is the case with most new organizations, it had its ,4ups and downs”: hut the seed was dropped in good soil, survived, and grew until today it ranks among the foremost of the student organizations. Questions of present-day interest are discussed, talks are given hv the various professors of file institution from time to time, and occasionally one of the members of the State Hoard of Pharmacy “treats” the association to an illustrated lecture. The program i generally followed by the question in which each member is supposed to ask at least one question to be answered by some one present. This is very interesting as well as instructive. Much benefit has been reaped from these meetings by the students in the past. and. with the increased interest shown, it i safe to say that even more help will be derived therefrom in the future.

All students having completed the first year of German or its equivalent are eligible to membership. At each meeting a program is rendered consisting of German songs, readings, etc. During ten minutes of each session German is suppressed: the English language reigns supreme. At this juncture our serious motives are hid in a cloud of mirth, for laughter is a universal language, and a too serious attitude might tie our tongues. Last year our predecessors in this movement spent many delightful evenings in social gatherings. Special programs were rendered. We have carried out this idea many times and the hall has rung with laughter when sdme “would-be German cluh man was initiated. On several of these occasions Prof. Taillandicr lias kindly brought a number of his views of German buildings and monuments, and talked of their history and significance. Last year the cluh gave a play in the Armory. It was well rendered and caused a great deal of merriment, even among those students who had no knowledge of German. This year we feel that with their success behind us. we can do something better. A play has been chosen which will entertain, whether the words are understood or not. ami costumes will Ik obtained to give the play a real German settling. The work is worthy of commendation and it is the hope of the members that the Vorwarts of next year and those succeeding will realize their opportunities and make the cluh a telling factor in college training.

M RlOX 241 CAUTHORN HALL CLUB Cautliorn Hall Club, since the retirement of Don Ferolo Whiskerandos, is a genuine, according to Webster, club, standing, in spite of the discouraging light in which many placed the new venture, civilly, morally and financially a complete success. Under the new management, which is purely a democratic form of government of the members, for the members, and by the members, the traditional practices of barbarians against Barbary have been supplanted by more elevating and refining amusements, much to the benefit of the participants. as well as a greatly reduced demand for furniture, giass and city water. But not only have the old amusements been supplanted but the very vocabulary has suffered a complete revolution. Rough-house, water-cure, roll-her-down. douse-the-glim and jigger were once as common terms as II ...O and forty-vear-ox-steak were common foods. Now, before the study hell calls all to their lessons, the latest doings of the Horseshoe. Tennis and Pee-wee Clubs, the remarkable manner in which some hapless, hopeless member has been devastated of his locks, and similar topics of general interest which come with each day of dorm, and college life arc discussed. Then tlie improvement of the hall is always of interest to the members, the desire of all l eing to make it a place of such multitudious advantages and attractions that the thought of there being a better place will never occur. Already the club has financed improvements to the amount of five hundred dollars, and should similar amounts lie invested in this way in the years to come no doubt the list of those waiting for rooms will have increased from the present two hundred to the complete rcgimemnl roster. Although the hall has ever been the home of many leading lights in college life, it has now become the recognized source of student enterprise as well. In fact so high is the value placed upon the simple privilege of living at the dorm, the men of thoughts and deeds arc irresistahlv drawn to it and. once there, never to leave its benign influence.

The building stands on a beautiful slope jlist back of the main college buildings on the campus. It is but a short walk from the dormitory to the college, and there are some class rooms on the lower floor of the hall. This large, beautiful home for the girls was commenced in the summer of 1U07 and was completed the following autumn. It was named for Mrs. Clara II.

The remainder of the space on the basement floor is used for class rooms—a bacteriological laboratory, two school kitchens, a well equipped laundry and other smaller rooms used for store rooms, cloak rooms and other purposes. The girls of the dormitory have organized themselves into a club, called the Waldo Hall Club, in which all ladies living in Waldo Hall are entitled to membership. The officers of the club include a President, first and second Vice-Presidents, a Secretary and a Treasurer. Meetings are held regularly each month for the transaction of all business. The purpose of the club is to bring its members into closer relationship one with the other, and to further closer relations and closer friendships among them. Many social functions have been held in the hall, and many others have been given by the club. A reception is given annually to the Caitthorn Hall Club. Dancing parties and entertainments of various natures are held each year. Through the kindness of Mrs. Waldo the girls have l een able to give more and better parties. Before leaving for her trip through Kurope she gave the club a handsome material gift. She still remembers them by sending souvenir post cards of the places she visits.

Sim lair Rhodes Krskinc [.use Clark Denney Palmer Wilson Thayer Cross Propst The familiar emblem of the Young Men's Christian Association is suggestive of all that this great, world-wide organization of young men stands tor. In this emblem, the ancient Monogram for Christ, is the foundation for the triangle which represents the three-fold nature of man: Spirit, man and body. Over all this is laid the Bible, open at the familiar text. John 17:21. In the large city associations, with their splendid gymnasiums, their practical educational work and their far-reaching religious activities, this emblem truly represents the spirit of the association work. In an educational institution whose main mission is the cultivation of the intellect, and where the physical welfare of the student also receives careful consideration, the Y. M. C. A. has wisely centered its effort in the development of the spiritual side of the student life. The Y. M. C. A. at O. A. C. is one member of a great universal brotherhood. In North America alone, in the various institutions of learning, its membership now numbers men. The local association is one of the first in the Northwest to employ a general secretary, and the first to secure a building devoted entirely to the use of the students. The building is called Shepard Hall, in honor of Cla Shepard, the first general secretary of the association who. by his faithful service, made the building possible. The building contains on the main floor a large lobby, which is used by the Y. M. C. A. as an assembly hall on Sunday, while during the week it is used as a reading, study and recreation room by the students. The remainder of the first lloor is occupied by the Y. M. C. A. office, the Y. V. C. A. room anil the Barometer office The second floor is divided into smaller rooms designed for the use of the literary societies and other student organizations. In the basement are the heating plant, lunch rooms, swimming pool and shower baths. The work of the Y. M. C. A. has been seriously handicapped during tin-past years by lack of proper facilities. Shepard Hall was designed to meet the need for more room and it is certain that with this splendid new equipment the association will Ik? ready for a larger and more effective work.

Portland 10 11 270 THE TEAM Clje 1908 JfoottmU Reason At the first of the season it would appear that the Orange team would again lie the champions, for the largest football squad ever out on a Northwest field was practicing on the local gridiron early in the season. This, with such veterans as Captain Wolff. Pendergrass. Kelly. Gagnon and Cooper, with Xorcross again reigning supreme as coach, would lead one to expect that such wotdd he the ease. But the reverses that usually follow a championship season asserted themselves and destroyed our hopes. Wo were gladdened when, shortly after training had begun. Cady. Jamison and Dobbin joined the squad. Our first game, which was played with the Alumni, found the team to be rather slow, but as good as could l e expected for so early a game. Wallace and Evenden. of last year’s “Scrubs, and Hasting, of the fast Portland High School team, proved to be men of good plunging classed him as wins. Wolff was again as a genius at the punt-l� een a strong factor in the Orange in previous The Puget Sound Uui-fottnd the team m much team work, though still improved. Cooper reput him out of condition season, and this hurt the Cooper was prominent ground gainer, etic Club eleven played out the features that go Cady was the pivot man, sidering the slow team against.

Brodic. Wallace new men to distinguish played at tackle, a new po went through the line loss. Jamison made sev the end. as had been bis Carl Wolff. Captain When the Willamette University lined up on the field two weeks later, they were swept off their feet by the concentrated rushes, and found a line that was impenetrable. Gagnon was again at quarter, and handled the team well. Wolff was shifted to half and played an excellent game, while Keck, who took his place at full, and Hastings playing half, made sensational long runs for touchdowns. O. A. C. was penalized often for holding in the line, but their work with the forward pass was much better than in the earlier games. The resulting score of 28 to 0 indicates how completely the visitors were outclassed. Jamison carried the hall for repeated long gains, and by use of the straight arm cleverly eluded the tacklers. The Whitman team was known to be a fast aggregation, and when they came to Corvallis there were many who thought that the Beavers would he defeated; but after a few plays the O. A. C. rooters were confident that their interests would be well taken care of. and it was soon apparent that if we were not victorious the result would be a scoreless game The eon- 272 ie t was witnessed by one of the largest crowds that ever congregated on O. A. C. field and they were rewarded by witnessing the best exhibition of football seen on the local gridiron for many seasons. The Whitman team had many “classy players and their team work was very good, while the Beavers were in the best form that they had displayed during the whole of the season. They played with a dash and ilicit work was as consistent as that of the champion team of last year. Time after time the Beavers tore through the line for good gains, but the Whitman line proved loo strong to allow a touchdown, and Captain Wolff look what at the time appeared to he the only chance to score and sent the ball spinning through the air for a field goal. The Walla Walla men now fought desperately to avert defeat but found our line impregnable. A faulty pass now gave O. A. C. the hall on Whitman's three-yard line and the Beavers went over for the last score of the game. Six times more we tried for goals, but were lie content with a score Keck showed the ef and put up a fine game, and punting well. Hast and Wallace at guard edly and often stopped Cady recovered t w o stop p e d many plays On November 21 we the University of Ore the two colleges played game was witnessed by thusiastn ran high at (). ccivcd the best support We expected to defeat margin, and 2,000 sup journeyed to Portland to The two teams lined in a heavy downpour of most through lbe whole very uncertain, into the game with a and did not play so con-contest with Whitman After a few plays it was seen that the team was not in good form, and their play was somewhat slow and disconcerted. The university won the toss-up and chose the kick-off. An untimely fumble at the very start put the Beavers on the defensive near their own goal and after a few minutes of play Moullcn succeeded in scoring a place kick from the ten-yard line. Wolff, though not well, played fiercely and rallied his men. Imt the effort proved ineffective, for the T’ scored another field goal before the half was over. When the halt ended the ball was in (). A. C.’s possession near Oregon's goal and the Beavers would likely have scored had the half been longer. The second half honors were divided between the two teams first one and then the other having the advantage, and resolved itself into a punting duel between Captain Wolff and Clark, the Oregon fullback, with Wolff having the better of it. Two times in succession he punted sixty yards and a F. K. I'cndcrgrasg, Capt.

Wolff put up a great game and his terrific line plunging revealed him to he the best half by far that the Northwest has developed in recent years. Keck, playing at full, proved worthy of his position, while Hastings and Cooper played a good game. Dobbin and Cady went out of the game early on account of serious injuries. They were replaced by Brodie and Endberg; later Freeman went in shortly before the half closed. Only five days after the Oregon game the badly crippled Beaver team met the invincible team of the University of Washington. The contest was held at Seattle on Denny Field, which was dry and fast. Away from home, oil a strange field, before an unfriendly crowd and without the support of their fellow students, the team went into the game with the true Beaver spirit—to do or die. This game proved to Ikt the hardest of the season, and the men were badly out of condition. The first twenty minutes of play left honors alnmt even and indicated a scoreless game; hut the poor condition of our men began to assert itself and they were overwhelmed by the fierce onslaughts of the heavy Washington hacks. Cooper went out after twenty minutes of play and was replaced by Hastings. Cady, on account of injuries received in the Oregon game, remained on the side lines throughout the contest. Keck, being sick, did not go into the play until WollT was carried from the field unconscious, near the end of the last half. Pendergrass, Dobbin. Kelly. Gagnon. WollT and Jamison played exceptionally well. “Shorty Gagnon was the star of the Beavers doing exceedingly well on returning punts. Wolff again showed his ability as a punter by outpunting Kakins with an average of forty-one yards to the Washington man’s forty. The last game of the season was played with Multnomah Club in Portland scarcely a week after the hard contest with Washington, and despite the fact that we were without the presence of Captain Wolff in the game, he being unable to play because of an injured knee, the team put tip a hard and fast game. Keck made the first score with a place kick, anti Brodie distinguished himself by making a sensational run of fifty-five yards for a touchdown. With the score ten to six in favor of the Beavers, and but two minutes remaining, we were reasonably sure of a victory, but football luck was in evidence and Stott, the licet Multnomah quarter, got away for a fifty-two-yard run for a touchdown, scoring the winning points. The season closed with all of the team eligible under the new conference rules, and we hope that in the next season that we will win back our lost WOLFF Tubbie made hi debut in the football world in the fall of 1900. when he player fidl on Xorkie’s famous “Green Bunch. He has made good for three consecutive seasons and has established a reputation as the best punter and fiercest line plunger west of the Rockies. These sterling qualities, combined with the spirit that knows no defeat, have this vear placed him upon the All-Northwest. n X PENDERGRASS Pender. now playing his third year, has ever distinguished himself as a player of the “stonewall type. He often beats the ends down on punts and is a good tackier. For his except iona! playing in 1007 as captain of the Beavers, the then Pacific Coast champions, be was unanimously chosen guard and captain of the “All-Northwest team. He has been chosen to lead the Beavers this coming season. I:rank R. 1‘endernrass EVENDEN “Arawanah played consistently with the 1907 “Scrubs” and was one of the first to lx- selected for the team this season. Although his playing is seldom spectacular, he is in the game all the time and played in every big game of the season. His playing in the Oregon and Washington games is especially noteworthy. James M. Kvenden KECK Chief’ is big and fast and with one year’s coaching on the second team easily made the college eleven. He runs wonderful interference and is an exceptionally hard line plunger. In the Multnomah contest his punting and handling of the forward pass were features of the game. Walter Keck GAGNON Gagnon has for three years served at quarter, and has yet to find an equal at handling the team in critical moments. He is in every play, and is one of the hardest and surest ladders on the gridiron. Being clever at running in punts he has always played at safety and rarely fumbles. Shorty's passes are accurate and he never allows the man carrying the ball to he tackled from behind before clearing the end. Walter C. tiagnon CADY Peg has played for three seasons on the eleven and is one of the fastest ends playing on a Conference team this year. His good work against Whitworth last season won the game for the Beavers. He handles punts well and is especially strong on defense. Ralph II. Cady KELLY Kelly lias held his position at center against ail comers for two seasons and has never been charged with a faulty pass. He is ever cool and steady and though much lighter than any man he played against this season, he was selected by some critics for the “All-Northwest” team. KHon I. Kelly rs. ENDBERG “Octie played for two years on the Baker City High team and captained that eleven during the season of 1907. Though his first year on the squad, his work would do credit to a veteran. His playing at full throughout the Washington game was exceptionally good. J. Oscar Knberg DOBBIN Dobbin first won his emblem by playing end on the ‘Green Bunch” and has ever since held his position with credit. “Jimmie” is seldom taken from the game, always having plenty of reserve grit, as shown by his remarkable playing at Seattle. Janies I). Dobbin BRODIE “Slats was unknown in the football arena until “Norky” discovered him in a class game. He was immediately drafted for the squad, and before the season closed was considered one of the fastest ends developed in recent years. He is exceptionally good at receiving the forward pass and in the Multnomah game ran fifty five yards f« r a touchdown. Kenton K. Brodic COOPER Cooper joined the Reavers in l!ii)7 and had no difficulty in making his position. Last season he proved to he our most consistent ground gainer, hut this year was unable to duplicate his previous record because of injuries received in early practice. 11 is playing in the Whitman game, however, showed that he still has class as a half, and will next year again demonstrate his ability. Koy Cooper HASTINGS Bub Hastings, ex-captain of the West Portland High, weighs hut 135 pounds, being by far the lightest halfback in the Northwest. The ‘midget halfback is. however, a good ground gainer and plays a star game, making up for lack in weight by speed, head work and skill in avoiding tacklers. CvorjiC IlastiriK- J A Ml SON “Jamie” received his early training at the Utah Agricultural College and. after being coached a short time by Nor-cross. demonstrated his ability to hold down his position with credit. He is the best ground gainer in the tackle around end play that has played on any of the Rig Six teams for years. His being selected as “All Northwest tackle for two consecutive seasons proves him to be a star. WALLACE Though but one year on the eleven, his playing is that of a veteran, and he repeatedly breaks through the line and tackles the runner in his tracks. In all games he proved to he strong on defense, and another season will undoubtedly find him ranking among the foremost heroes of the gridiron. Edwin V. Wallace Roy Heater. Trainer E. D.

Our prospects brightened when, in our first contest, we held the Woodburn team to the close score of 6 to f through eleven innings of fast play. Up to the eighth the Beavers earned four runs and had prevented the league men from making a tally. It now appeared as though the result would be a sluit-out. but our inexperienced players became nervous and allowed the score to be tied. In the ninth each team sent a man over the home sack and thus the score stood until Woodburn scored the winning run in the eleventh. After losing to Chemawa the local nine took a brace, defeating Salem decisively and downed the Chemawa braves. The Whitman College aggregation now arrived upon the scene and immediately proceeded to give us another taste of defeat. The Beavers led off with two runs in the second inning. Whitman ticing the score in the third and annexing three more to their credit in the fourth. Though the local team tallied in the sixth, they were unable to overcome their opponent’s lead during the remaining sessions. Coach Fay now arrived and although at a disadvantage, owing to the season being far advanced, soon whipped a team into shape that won each of the remaining intercollegiate games. The second contest with Whitman proved to be an easy one for the Beavers. The Washingtonian pitchers were often touched for safeties, and errors were so numerous that the locals had no difficulty in defeating them 13 to 1. With but two weeks of careful coaching we were far too fast for Chemawa, taking Itoth contests from them. I'he University of Oregon and O. A. C. finished the previous season with even honors, and when we journeyed to Eugene the ‘U expected to win the first two games of the season with ease. Both teams played ragged ball at times, hut the Beavers fast playing at critical moments won for them both the morning and afternoon games, upon to pitch the remaining games on the schedule. t this stage of the season our pitching staff diminished and Rooper was called Knowing the predicament that confronted us. the University team came to Corvallis with the expectation of winning at least one contest. The visitors, however, played an exceedingly inferior quality of ball and the spectators were highly disappointed with their unsatisfactory showing. The result lieing 16 to 2 in favor of O. A. C. indicates the superiority of the local nine. On the following day the Eugene boys, getting their wits collected, partially redeemed themselves by losing to us the fourth consecutive game of the series. Though we rooted and cheered for our team when they met Multnomah on the local grounds, the Beavers were unable to win. The collegians started well by getting two tallies in the first and their play was so fast and accurate that the club had no opportunity to score until the disastrous sixth. With 2 to 0 in their favor the Beavers slackened their speed and commenced to play rather loosely, when the ‘ Winged M team bunched hits and. aided by an error rally by the local nine, scored four runs. Multnomah tallied again in the seventh. The college men came to the willow and by clever batting added one to their credit, but were unable to turn the tide in their favor. While but our second year of baseball, we have this season developed a team that can be justly proud of its record. To Coach Fay we owe much, for it was largely due to his efforts that we were so successful during the latter half of the season. V. C. Crew . Capt. Otto X.

W ith such men as Captain Hall, Wolff, Schroeder, Chapman. Davolt and Grcenhaw as a neucleus about which to develop a squad, our hopes for a winning team were exceptionally bright. At the Columbia indoor meet, held in April, several new men showed good form. Wolff won first place in the shot-put at forty-two feet. This proved to Ik quite a surprise, as this event was generally conceded to Oregon. Chapman broke the college record in the high jump, and Schroeder won the 220 from Moon of the University. May I. the day of the interclass meet, was cold and windy and many of the events were contested in a heavy downpour of rain. Steiwer was easily the star of the Freshman team, winning twenty points, while Scott won the inn in fast time, notwithstanding the poor condition of the track. Jamison proved to be a good man with the discus, and Farnsworth did well in the hurdles and high jump. The annual dual meet with the University of Oregon was the most closely contested field day that the two big institutions have participated in for years. The day was warm and an ideal one for record breaking. Swann was not allowed to participate, through his failure to register in due season. Without Swann in the pole vault we had no hope of winning that event, while the University vaulters surprised us hv capturing all three places. We retaliated, however, bv taking nine points in the high jump. Chapman. Lounsberry and Farnsworth ticing for first, second and third places. The shot-put marked the beginning of the four records broken in the meet. Wolff made a put of forty-two feet nine inches, breaking his own record of forty-two feet made at the Columbia University meet one month earlier. Davolt won the half close to record time, and then covered the mile in 4 :4rt. lowering the previous record by five seconds. A. K. Chapman. Cnpt. F.lcct. S. 15. Hall. Capt. The hammer throw was the next event to have a new mark set. Hall was the surprise of the day. defeating Zach-arias. the holder of the Northwest record, with a magnificent throw of I Hi feet 3} inches, raising his mark of the previous season. In the broad jump Lounsberry established a new record by clearing 21 feet 4 inches. The best distance in this event heretofore had been 21 feet 2j inches, made by M. B. Beldon, which had stood since 190f� . With the winning of the relay the final score stood in favor of Oregon. Through lack of funds O. A. C. entered no team in the Pacific Northwest Association’s meet, hut the Beaver athletes participated for Multnomah. It was through their efforts that the club won first place so easily, for our athletes earned thirty-four points against the nineteen scored by the team winning second place. Davolt was hard pressed in the mile by Clark of Seattle, winning in the fast time of 4:39. Wolff won the shot-put at 41 feet It inches, while Hall had no difficulty in winning first in the hammer. In the high jump Chapman raised his former mark to 5 feet i inches, and was followed closely by Lounsberry at . feet S inches. Our prospects for a strong team during the coming season are not bright, for at commencement we lost such men at Davolt and Grcenhaw. who could always be relied upon for several first places in every meet. In selecting Chapman for captain the students feel that the team has placed its destinies in the hands of an excellent man. and we hope for much better success than in the season just closed. 289 Columbia Sitboov Jfleet EVENT FIRST SECOND THIRD RESULT 50-vd. dash Smithson.

From the very first practice indications of a winning team were evident, though there did exist some doubt. A new center and guard had to he developed and this caused no little trouble to our new coach. Director Angell. Moore and Horton were again back at forward. Spires at guard, but Foster and Rooper were out of the game. Nevertheless, excellent men appeared on the scene, Hamilton and Pugh for the vacancies and Reed as a forward, all three developing by the end of the season into sterling players. The ball was started rolling on January 12. when the Portland V. M. C. A. met our boys in the home gymnasium. The eagerness and intensity of play served to stimulate the audience to such a degree of interest that support never slackened throughout the entire two months of activity. Six more captures were made by the wearers of the orange in quick succession. We met the Los Angeles delegation, claiming some eighty triumphs and only half a dozen reverses. The big men from the south with their skillful plays in practice struck fear into the heart of every on-looker, but when it came to the struggle, supremacy was decidedly in our favor. With the score standing 28-is when the final whistle blew, an involuntary shout went up from the audience. Up to this time all games had Inren played on the home floor. The tour to Eastern Washington, touching Walla Walla and Pullman, was now proposed. On the 26th of February we met the Whitman College team, where victory was to decide the Northwest Intercollegiate Championship. Our men were slow in getting started and the first half ended ‘.M in the opponent's favor. The second told a different story. Superior team work had its effect and completely overcome the Missionaries—12 points were basketed against their 6. and the O. A. C. was pronounced undisputed champion of the Northwest. The season met one reverse. In Portland, on our return from Washington. Multnomah Club defeated us. Four days later the Winged M five attempted to do the same thing once more, but this time met their Waterloo. This year in basket-ball marked the introduction of a practically new game. Under the “Collegiate rules basket-ball takes on an entirely different aspect. To the player, it offers greater opportunity for individual and team work, as he is freer, and is not bound down by seemingly ridiculous rules. To the audience, it offers a bright, speedy sport, ftdl of interest and intense excitement, in place of a slow, rather slack attempt at amusement. Only in three contests were the A. A. U. rules used, the first time with the Portland Y. M. C. A., next with Whitman, and last with Multnomah Club. Next year prospects are still brighter, for we do not lose one of the present team and many new stars have shown up in the class games. 29S Class Htfjlettcs 1910 TKA.M IXTKK C LASS FOOTBALL CHAMPIONS 1910 eam Collette.

The influence of thi organ is marked and wide. It carries with it. wherever it goes, impressions of our school, and by it we are judged. Fairness toward all has been the attempt of the editors, and while not always wholly able to do this, thev have been in great part very successful. Fourteen years ago the Amicitians. Jeffersonians and Pierians organized the paper, electing from their members the editor-in-chief, business manager and staff officers. Without a model, and lacking experience in journalism, they had a difficult path to tread. But as the college grew, better and greater material was available and the monthly spread out in its scope. In 1907 the unusual development of the college demanded more frequent publication, and the weekly was evolved. At first it was hut a twelve-inch, eight-page affair. This lasted one year, when it was expanded to nearly double that size. Today a semi-weekly is in great demand and before the end of the year such a move will he taken. Genius does not bring success in journalism. Hard, conscientious work, pride and sincerity in the honor f boldine office on the staff, and the support of the faculty, students and residents are the necessary attributes. Y itli these, success is inevitable. Barometer fttaff J. J. Peudicokd. '09...................Ed’tor S. A. Wilson. in. and Riij.a Thompson, ’ !• Associate Editors importers “Box' Neal, ‘09, and M. R.

Manager 317 .MS Preeminent among student publications stands the Orange, a year book edited by the Junior Class. The purpose of a college annual has become so well understood as to be accepted as a necessity without comment or question as to the advisability of continuing the work from year to year. It has become so firmly entrenched that it is regarded of as much importance a any text hook prescribed for any course in the college curriculum. Regarding the value of the present hook, we shall rest content to leave it to the judgment of its kind readers; we merely say that we believe the Orange to he the most valuable and lasting of college souvenirs. The Orange of ltMO is the third volume of an enterprise inaugurated hv the class of 100S; each succeeding Junior Class has continued the custom. realizing that it was a means by which the activities of the student body could be recorded in tangible form and that it would thus serve as a reflection of the spirit of the students. The editors of this volume have endeavored to do their duties to the best of their abilities—that i . to publish a comprehensive and interesting account of the past college year, and primarily to produce a work worthy of O. A. C. which it represents. Cfje ©range taff Erki� E. Ewart . Editor MixMK Diykn . . Associate Editor A. Ci E. A URN MOTT II • •••• m m m Manager W. T. Stratton . LITERARY Assistant Manager S. A.

Hayes TIIK FIRST EDITOR AND MANAGER OF THE OREGON COUNTRYMAN Cfje Oregon Countryman At one of I he meetings of the levelling Club in the spring of 1008. a discussion arose concerning student publications. In the course of this discussion some one remarked that the Agricultural students should publish a magazine dealing with the various phases of agriculture and farm life. This was the beginning. The Lcwelling Club appointed a committee of three, which met a similar delegation from the Agricultural Club. In joint session these two committees devised plans for the enterprise, and after receiving much encouragement from the members of the faculty interested, made a favorable report to the Agricultural Club, which was promptly accepted. The club proceeded to elect a staff which, after considering the matter, decided to have the School of Domestic Science and Art represented. and thereby make the publication a paper for the country home as well as for the farm. Under the able guidance of C. II. Hays as editor and I7. L. Gridin as business manager, the first issue of the Oregon Countryman made its appearance in June of 1008. The Oregon Countryman publishes articles each month concerning the work of the various departments of the agricultural course and the School of Domestic Science and Art. Articles are contributed by the leading agricultural authorities of the state, members of the faculty, students and those who are closely in touch with the work of the experiment station. Farmers get results of experiments, the reports of which are published in the magazine before they finally appear as bulletins. The magazine aims to keep in touch with the graduates of the Schools of Agriculture and Domestic Science and Art. These graduates, by their articles, which appear from time to time, are able to give to the people of the state many valuable results of experimental work, the principles of which thev learned while students at O. A. C. The Countryman is yet in the first year of its existence. and of course, is far from what those who are behind it hope to see it become in the future. The following are the staff for the year ending June. 1000 Cl. A I'D Sell RACK. ‘OP . R. A. McCully. op . . Lin.vie Ct'RKiN. oo . . Gertrude Davidson, ‘op . Orkek Beaty, ’op . . . F. B.

Christiansen TIIE FIRST STAFF OF THE NORTHWEST JOURNAL OF ENGINEERING tEfje J ortfjtoest Journal of engineering To publish ;t magazine, especially a technical magazine, calls for genius � f the practical, hard-working kind. When the task is added t � the already full calendar of the student, success is the result of Mill greater genius—more hard work. Last year, through the efforts of Prof. T. H. Gardner, the engineering -indents of this school decided to publish a technical journal dealing with the various phases of engineering. The first issue, which was published last year, set a standard which, if adhered to, will go far towards making a successful magazine. Not only articles from the pens of our engineering graduates, but also those which come from the world at large, which are of interest to the students, are published. Although still in its infancy, the Northwest Journal of Engineering bids fair to become a strong publication and to show to the state at large the strength and importance of our engineering department. £ taff J.

Francis: He cheered; the night will bring no harm; No cause have you to take alarm.

Frkida: Indeed you may; I'm g'ad you came Take this chair, of thee I nrav; We’ll swap adventures of the day. Lyman: So will I. and w:lb greatest pleasure Relate to you my blest treasure. I’m staying at the Shack lie Whisk Where Freshmen run an awful risk Of being hazed to such extent As will the victim oft dement. Last night I lay in wakeful mood And o’er these things did sadly brood; I slept, but soon my fitful dreams Were pierced through by frightful screams That stilled my heart within my breast Until I gasped as one distressed By strangler’s clutch. Then came a crash A figure through my dour did smash I lerjied from bed; I lit the lamp: Prepared to fight the reckless scamp; Rut horrors! there upon the floor There lay a body h’lthed in gore. () Sick peeping around corner.) Pray let us have a bit more quiet, I think we all shall profit by it. Frkida: I thought that c were all alone: Continue in a lower tone; For though mine ears 1 scarce believe. Perhaps the ending may relieve My fears that some atrocious crime Was perpetrated at the time. I.ym � n : Now. as I’ve already said. There lay a body, seeming dead. And overcome with fright and grief. And shaking like an aspen leaf. 1 raised the body, light and small. A painted dummy that was all. Frkioa: ( h. I'm so glad, yet disappointed To think thy story so disported. For I was nerved to bear the story Of hazing with its blood and glory. It makes me feel as one at night.

Having suffered iti mind, though still alive. Falling scores of feet instead of five. I.YMAS : But wait; 1 have not told you all. I threw the dummy down the hall. Repaired the door and went to lieu. But sleep my pillow would not wed. Twas midnight past, when, in a doze. My lock was picked by silent foes; They entered, dragged me from mv bed And bound a cloth about my head. Then came a voice that I well knew: Friend l.ynian, I will pay my due. But now a creaking on the stair Seemed to give them quite a scare. And ere they could fulfil their boast Kach vanished like a silent ghost. Then I he held what they had feared - An apparition, with a beard And bristling whiskers, draped in black: The guardian angel of the Miack. He thrust his lantern in my face And said: Why do you so disgrace The silent night with hideous noise That peaceful slumber so destroys? Arise, and to thy room repair. Or 1 shall boot thee down the stair. I argued, blit ’twas all in vain; The trouble 1 could not explain; So creeping hack to bed once more. Discouraged, frightened, bruised and sore. These fated worris 1 pondered o'er; Friend Lyman. I’ll repay the score. How well these words I vet remember. Though spoken to me last September; The words of one I thought my friend. I find ill-omened in the end. If he again shall cross try path. I'll rise in just and mighty wrath; I'll challenge him to open fight And lay him low in grievous p'ight.

With sad vexations is my path bestrewn. An«l griefs are wont to revel not alone. Since first I saw that charming girl My heart, my brain have been a whir ; And yet to win her smile seems vain. I’ve tried and tried and tried again. Deep plots I've made without success: I’m hailled now, I must confess The fun seems all at my expense And I receive no recompense. Last night orce more ill-fortune turned Upon me and my purpose spurned. But now I’ll try another scheme Which seems as yet an empty dream, flood luck, why, pray thee, change thy trend.

If she will go. then all is well; 'l”o her my love I’ll surely tell. But if |� crchancc she turns me down I’ll wreak my vengeance on the town. True love’s not easily won, I know. Nor do I wish that it were so. For then would old tradition be o’ertbrown And sweet romance Ih- robbed of its tone. All. here she conies, my fairy queen. 344 The- fairest girl I've ever seen. Come. Courage nestle on my brow; Mayhap my fate I'll settle now. (Meets Frcida.) Sweet morning, lady. I would fain An interview with thee obtain.

Oh. well, let me see: Yes. I will go; please call at eight. I think it will not lx too late. Francis: A thousand thanks: and now good-day -I won’t detain yon on your way. (Aside.)

It was long and hard and tedious and she was very tired by the lime she came to look at the last question, which was: “Write an allegory, choosing your own subject.” An allegory! What under the shining sun, moon, and stars was that? In vain she racked her brain for some faint glimmering, some ray that would help her through that last question, so that she might go. for the winter afternoon was already growing dark. “Oh, bother my brains.” she said to herself. “I wish I were dead.” And wearily she tcn k up her |H n again, (the ink was leaking badly), and began to chew the end of it. Then her own words gave her the idea, and bravely and busily she was writing an allegory. “I was on the road to Heaven. I knew it was the road to Heaven, because it was so straight and narrow and uphill to the very end. All circs and vexations I had left safely In-hind in the empty school room. Many people traveled with me in the same direction, and I saw that they were a diverse company from every station of life. The way was long and steep and stony, and often my feet dragged with weariness. lint what did that matter? Finally in its course the procession reached the gates of the Heavenly City, and each waited in turn his chance for admittance. I saw them go in. one by one, and 1 knew it was St. Peter who stood at the gate, not on'y by his venerable air, and the l cctaclcs he wore on his nose, but also by the huge hunch of keys banging from his waist, like the crucifix of a monk. Of all sorts and kinds were the | coplc he had to deal with, lawyers, doctors, merchants, rich nun. poor men.— 1 found myself going over the old childish rigmarole as I watched and counted them. At last it was my turn, and I mustered all the answers to the catechism that I could remember, with some vague notion that they might lie useful. Put the questions were entirely otherwise, short' and to the point: who 1 was. where I had lived, what 1 had meant to do in life. And what wen you doing Ik-fore you started here? asked St. Peter. “I was a student at . A. C..” I answered, quite sure of my ground on that, at any rate. “A student at ). A. CM” and St. Peter looked quizzically over his spectacles. “Ah! I see. Stand aside. Von’ll have to wait for an examination.” Aones H . 351 “Heap |?ear Camilles” Along about the end of the first term I made tip my mind I’d tell her. For I knew site must have susiK-ctcd it. and then I thought I’d feel better after I had found out what she thought about it. Itut everything seemed to Ik- against me. and lx-fore I knew it three months of the spring term had gone, and I hadn’t told her yet. When the time came f« r the Mary’s Peak trip, she hr.nded in her name when she knew as well as anything she could have depended on me. Of course. I wasn’t looking for this, and another fellow got her. Well, I took the name of the worst pill in the bunch and went, determined to have a bum time, for I had sort of dreamed of how I’d tell her on that trip. On the first afternoon out I was startled with the news that Mabel (for that was her first name) was lost. Naturals- I was the most eager one of the searching party that was foimcd to look for her. An indescribable something seemed to tell me where to look, and before I bad gone half a mile I c: me upon her. sitting on the bank of a small stream, crying. When she saw me she cried so much the harder, and motioned me away; hut I ventured closer, and after a few consoling words, started to help her to her feet. Hut she screamed like death, and positively refused to rise. Then I noticed that she was sitting in a very peculiar position, and concluded that she must be badly hurt. As she would not tell me what was the matter. I liecame alarmed and started to go for help. Hut she called me hack, placed one hand over her face, and with the other uncovered a bare foot. Then between her sobs she told me that some of the girls had lnrcn wading, and she had decided to go back to camp before the rest. Seeing a nice, mossy log. she had gone out on it to put on her shoes, and while attempting to seat herself had dropped her shoes and stockings into the water below. 1 strolled down to the edge of the creek to think and to laugh, and the first thing I saw was the shoes and stockings lodged on a friendly hush. I fished them out with a long pole, and under her su| crvisioii put them on some rocks to dry in the sun. and while they were drying I told her. I don’t rememlier just what kind of a bluff we put up when wc came into camp about sundown and tlu- bunch demanded an explanation. Hut I do know that the first tiling 1 did when I got lionK was to write a few lines to dad, which ran something like this: Dear Father: I have decided to give up that Alaska trip, and will take charge of the business as you bad planned as soon as school is out.

Mis long, straggly red hair, his wringled cheeks, and his little bottle nose that sat im|K-rtincmly atilt between two gleaming black eyes, shaded by bushy eyebrows, and situated somewhere over a mouth large enough to hold an ostrich egg. presented a very ridiculous spectacle. And why should it not. when all this was stuck upon the shoulders of a tiny body, supplied with two long apish arms and a pair of bowlegs? “Young man.’ squeaked the freak, do you know what I am here for? Mo. indeed, I do not. sir.” I returned as politely as possible, for I was inwardly convulsed with laughter.

Come; follow roe. I always knew that some one would find these sterling qualities in me. and without question I was up in a second, following my toddling old benefactor, who dodged in and out among the crowded masses of the big city. We rounded a corner, ran half a block, turned into an alley, proceeded up this a short distance and came to a halt before a little, onc-story house, completely isolated bv slime and muck.

To my amazement a trap door in the center of the floor flew open, from which issited a beautiful maiden with auburn hair, dressed as a princess. She beckoned to me. indicating that I should follow her. I was hypnotized, stricken with love, so down a seemingly endless ladder I started after her. We reached the bottom, and off over a much-trotluc n iwth I raced in mad endeavor to catch my beauty Around a dozen bends we ran, past innumerable other paths, and yet I could not grasp those flaunting tresses.

At last my lady won It I cease her mad race. On the cool, calm waters of that clear, running stream I could look deep into those fair blue eyes that every now and then sparkled hack at me. Disappointment of disappointments! O miserable fate! Why such torments? Instead of waiting, she jumped into the canoe and shoved off. leaving me behind in that awful furnace. I was still determined, so plunged in and struck out through the icy waters to the opposite shores, where the “gallant ship had already landed. Wearily I dragged my contrary hotly up the batik.

The all-absorbing question was. Who shall l� c our May Queen? The record of votes was watched anxiously.

The great day dawned damp and cloudy, with strong indications that Mother Nature disapproved such folly as strongly as our l'uritan ancestors once did. Nothing daunted, a great concourse of visitors assembled on the green about the royal pavilion to view the crowning of the Queen, while around the armory the performers in the day's frolic anxiously watched the sky, hoping against hope that the shower would pass. At last the sky brightened, and the royal party took its way to the pavilion, the Queen’s palanquin borne aloft by stalwart Roman soldiers, loyal retainers on horseback clearing the way. and a gay retinue of pages. Morris dancers, and attendants, not to forget the jester, with his cap and bells, and the fool on an ancient steed of prehistoric lineage, probably from Missouri. The Cardinal addressed the Queen, and in behalf of the people crowned her queen for the day. Then he offered a prayer for the day's joy. Some were mean enough to remark that it was the tirst one to which he had ever given utterance. The astonishing petitions which it contained, their very newness and audacity confounding, were listened to with bated breath. The coronation ceremony ended, the Queen's address to her loyal subjects was received with enthusiastic cheers of ‘‘God save the Queen. Then all turned their attention to the May poles, where the gaily dressed dancers tripped through the intricate maze till the pattern was complete. The crowd then thronged to the Armory, where was given a drill by the Physical Culture classes and a concert by the band. In the afternoon, in spite of heavy showers, the interclass track meet was held, the royal party occupying the place of honor, and the Queen crowning each proud victor as he knelt before her throne.

Dear Rill: I have a whole day to spend in this forlorn county, as the confounded hotel clerk forget to call me in time to catch my train this morning. I’ll banish dull care by relating to you a few incidents of the trip we hard rock miners at . A. C. took. You will remember my previous allusions to a proposed tour. On Wednesday last, while the Profs, were busily engaged in handing out nicely engraved sheepskins to the graduating class, eight of us were hard at work rolling our blankets .anil figuring out the balance of our bank account. We all managed to rake up enough somehow to get tickets to Tacoma, anil when the first train came along we were off in a bunch. That evening found us in the city that grows while you watch.” The first thing we saw was the electric sign in front of a theater, and the way we lit out for it wasn’t slow. We wound up inside. The lines of force immediately settled around Smith and Rowe, for they were seated behind a couple of large hats and pink ribbons ipiickcr than scat. I followed in their wake, and was fortunate enough to land behind a third big hat. We didn't see much of the show, but made the acquaintance of the hats, and the auto ride which followed seemed to convince my college chums that a cottage for two with a cow and some chickens was about the nicest thing in the world, and that Tacoma was the only place worth mentioning. To tell the truth, those may have been my sentiments, too, but when one of the fair damsels asked my lady. “Who is staying at home with little Willie?” your uncle took to the tall timber. On the next morning the original eight were being initiated into the marvels of the great Tacoma smelter. A smelter was new to most of us. and when safely within the yard we realized that there was even more to the modern plant than had been anticipated. At a glance we saw the one copper and four lead blast furnaces, with the roasters, refinery, converters, compressor plant, and shops. I'nder Professor Parks' able supervision, we inspected in detail. First we “did” the copper blast furnace, a modern water-jacketed device, about 44x1 It inches at the tuyere level. To see it in action, we had to charge up a ladder through a dense cloud of suffocating smoke and sulphur dioxide fumes, caused by a threatening fire that had previously occurred in the building, destroying almost half of the roof overhead, thus shutting on the draft of air, by means of which all the obnoxious gases bad usually been carried away. On this, the charging floor, we investigated the charging bins, where all the ores arc carefully bedded in layers. These ores were being loaded into carts, weighed, and then charged into the furnace, where it was melted into slag anil matte with as much case as we should have melted candles at home. On the ground floor all the different parts were explained, and then, after one of our party had taken a picture of the men and furnace while streams of molten slag and matte were flowing out of the taps, we waged our way down the line to the converters. It was with a great deal of interest that we witnessed the large crane overhead, operated by electricity, handle the pots of molten matte weighing tons, just as you handle sacks of flour at the mill. At the opposite end of the building and in direct line with the furnace and converter, the metallic copper drawn from blocks preparatory to shipping to Boston for refining. From here we went to the compressor plant, and thence to the lead furnace, being perhaps a little smaller. Near these furnaces were two roasters, of the calcin type, each of which measured approximately ninety feet in length. As one was in operation. we were afforded .1 splendid example of the roasting process. Not far from the roasters we found a briquetting machine in full blast, making the Hue dust and fine concentrates from Idaho into small bricks, ready, after being dried, to charge the furnace for smelting. The department where flue dust was being saved next attracted us. Here we found someth ug quite new. There were a thousand or more large canvas hags sus| ciid«’d in the building, each one about ten inches in diameter and thirty feet in length. Through these aM the fumes were forced to filter before continuing on their journey to the stack. In this way all the dust that might contain values in gold anti silver was saved. The inspection was complete, hut our party was not. for Kow’c and Smith were missing. They were suspected and traced to the city, where we found the culprits on a corner, looking up ami down the street expectantly. After much protesting and opposition on their part, we succeeded in lugging them aboard a Seattle-bound steamer, where we held them till the mate east off the line. The scenery along the ride was beautiful and inspiring, and it isn’t at all surprising that fellows like you end I should become impressed. Hut when such fellows as old war horse Cooke get it well, it can't he accounted for. We were standing together on the hurricane deck (hurricane, cyclone, or something like that), and I began wondering what kind of technical problems my friend was revolving in his fertile mind, when the truth came to me like a thunderbolt. It , said he, is this not the grainiest and most l caiitiful place on earth, and wouldn’t it he an ideal place for a honeymoon? When 1 came to, I was propped up among pillows, while the doctor was s|u aking cncotiraging words. I wrs all right in a few seconds, and was mightily relieved to see the lights of Seattle loom up before us. Dixon, Cunningham and Sig. Mauer had commenced to show alarming signs of lova-tuata, so. to avoid difficulty. Professor Parks rushed us all off to bed as soon as we landed. Karly on the following morning we speeded to Kenton over the intertirban. It is here that the coal mines are located. Mr. Jones, the superintendent, soon lnd each one of us clad in a pair of overalls, a pair of rubber boots, caps, with attached lamps, ami miner cuss words. The mine buildings arc located near the foot of a small mountain, and the coal seam is encountered after drifting into the hill several hundred feet. We were surprised to see that electric motors drew the cars on the level drifts. Such modern improvements were not expected. Down the shaft a thousand feet put us upon the lower level. The vein was a full eight feet in width, and was being sloped out by the room system. AM the ore was mined by hand, it being soft bituminous coal, with a great deal of slate mixed through it. Mutes were used to draw the cars on the lower level, and were worked without a driver. Davidson got off the main line going hack, anti returned to us with a scared look, lie never would relate what he saw, not even when we threatened to fire him from the car on our way back to Seattle. A few hours with our warships at Bremerton ami a day at Victoria, II. C.. completed our pleasant journey. A picture of the homeward trip from Canada to the United States comes before me time and time again. We were given a glimpse of the setting sun as it dipped beneath the horizon, casting a path of gold uj on the waters through the gate to the Pacific, the Straits of Juan dc I'uca. Darkness reigned, and then the glow of Seattle suddenly appeared. The myriads of lights which lined the hills surrounding the harbor made it seem like a new heaven, illuminated with countless brilliant !arV, It left the impression that nowhere else. or. as our old chum said, for the hundredth time, as his gaze lingered longingly o’er the magnificent scene of night, the grandest place in all the world for a honeymoon.” Sincerely, yours Uncle Ike.

On May 18. squads of Junior might have been seen iu earnest conversation on every corner, but let a member of any other class approach and it was astonishing to note the ease with which tile subject was changed or the group dissolved. Junior girls were hurrying home from town with all sorts of interesting packages, and boxes, and baskets galore. The next day no Junior appeared at the S o'clock classes; the second jK-riod classes suffered the same fate; the professors looked bewildered, hut no explanation of the phenomenon was forthcoming. At last, however, the rumor of the assembling of the whole Junior Class in a body at the Courthouse and their marching down Main street in picnic array reached their ears, and then. . It's a disgrace to the institution!’’ said one. ’’The whole class should be tired bodily.” said another. We’ll sec how they like to make up exams,” said a third, putting a list of test questions on the hoard. )li, yes. they went up in tile air, but they came down lie fore they had a chance to see the Juniors. Some there were who saw the point, however. ”1 am surprised that no class lias done that before; the way has always been open, and this is the only class that has been bright enough to see it.” remarked one very sane teacher. Well, well, remarked another, with a twinkle in hi eye. 1 see the Juniors are taking a day off. The rest of you may be excused. We will take the same lesson for tomorrow. Ah. that was a gallant procession, a hundred and thirty strong! Down Main street and over to ilie ferry they marched to the jubilant tune of Rah, rah. rah. Juniors! Rah. rah. rah. Juniors! Across the ferry and into the woods they went, Old Sol looking down with his friendly smile. Here is a nice place!” Oh. let’s go farther! What’s the matter with this? were the exclamations heard all along the line. Finally, not because all were suited, but because all were ready to stop, an ideal spot was found, where fallen trees made a grandstand on a fine, grassy track suitable for athletic stunts. With a long blackberry vine for a linisli line, and many self-; ppointed judges, starters, and track managers, the program Ix-gan. In the hundred-vnrd dash Calloway came out first, and (leorgc lleudsliadler second; then Ix-gan an anxious hunt for partners for a three-legged race. Frank llall and Clifford got tied up and began practicing: I’red McHenry and Charlie Howard, Itlanchard and Crowe.

After many false starts, picturesque tumbles, and artistic postures, the race was finished. Mlancliard and Crowe coining out ahead, with McHenry a close second. In a free-for-all Imp Meaty came out first. while Mower was champion in jumping. After a vigorous Ini tit in the baskets for egg spoons, the girls had an egg race. Kate Moore coming out victor. In the girls’ hundred-yard dash. Hcorgia Kwing crossed the line first, and Violet Hancock complacently coming in last. During the races, the gir’s were busy weaving laurel crowns for the victors. These proved to be so becoming that some wished they could wear them always. Kd Bowen’s Dantcsquc appearance once seen could never be forgotten. Alice McCnnnis appeared with a very elaborate crown.

They were makers of history, original discoverers, who, though tender in years and young ill experience, bad practically succeeded in outwitting a body of trained and of veteran pedagogues who. for the time being, bail evidently lost sight of the old adage that it is preferable to close the door of the cage In-fore rather than after the bird has made his escape. 366 ©yi® (Intended ns on aid to he used teitli Senior summaries mid Junior write-ups.)

It has been a pleasant task to prepare it, although at times overwhelmed and disheartened by the monumental undertaking. jOur hopes of improvement and innovation received a severe shock when we faced its grim and unbending commercial phase; therefore we now fully appreciate the counsel given us by our predecessors which at the time was not given the weight we now give it. Judge not, then in what we have succeeded in producing, but by what we would have done and the spirit that animated us. May the Orange of 1910 prove to be an everlasting reminder of “college days” and when we leave the institution may it serve to foster a loyal spirit towards our Alma Mater to whom we owe so much. THE EDITORS Jf rtenbs of tfje (Grange IE following pages contain the busi- ness cards of a list of loyal friends to our college who are, in these pages making known their friendship to us. They have aided in no small degree in creating whatever of merit this volume may possess, and such support should be deeply appreciated by all members of the institution, and it should be our endeavor to make that appreciation felt in reciprocal patronage, therefore the Orange Board commends the advertisers to the favorable consideration of every friend of the Orange.
