Text from Pages 1 - 126 of the 1911 volume:

Published by the Cadets of Augusta Military Academy Fort Defiance, Virginia 1911 Cu Cul. Charles Summerville Roller, Sr. The varnest Christian, the braue and faithful suldier, the deep philosopher, the uersatile thinker, the accomplished miter, the ineurruptible patriot, the founder uf or school, this, the first untiume of the Rerall, is Dedicated, a faint but trur testimony of mur psternt and aftertion Dr. Mauze’s Address GHE following address was delivered by the Rev. Dr. ‘| Mauze, a prominent minister of St. Louis, Mo., on the ninth of May, 1910, at the unveiling exercises Li. Ve of the monument erected by the Alumni of this Academy, in memory of the school’s highly esteemed and Sree founder, Col. Chas. 8S. Roller. Dr. Mauze’s address may be truly termed a gem, which takes its form in the English language, and we trust that those RECALL readers who were unable to hear Dr. Mauze deliver it in person, will find some compensation in thus being able to peruse it in print. All those who knew and dwelt with Col. Roller will join with the editors in acclaiming this address one which will serve for time everlasting to endear Dr. Mauze to the hearts of A. M. A. Alumni, as well as the cadets who are now in attendance at the Academy. “Mr. Chairman, Fellow Alumni, Patrons and Friends of Augusta Military Academy, Ladies and Gentlemen: There are times in the lives of most public speakers when they feel the poverty of human speech to express the emotions within them which struggle for utterance. Such is my experience on this auspicious occasion when Iam to speak of the character and career of one to whom I owe so much, and you must be patient with my laboring to find fitting terms in which to express the thoughts that oppress me. For truly has the great iconoclast death entered in the house of my idols and stricken from his pedestal one before whom my soul had long bowed with reverence akin to devotion. Ever since the eventful day on which I was lead by my father into Prof. Roller’s office as an applicant for registration in his Academy, he has towered high in my esteem. The steadfast, soul examining gaze of his eyes exercised the un- rulely spirit that long possessed me and at once bound me to him. Other instructors I have had and admired, but my soul has ever been true to my first love. “Mr. Chairman, when you, in the name of the Memorial As- sociation, invited me to interpret on this occasion that which hun- 4 dreds think and feel, I thanked you for the proud privilege you had conferred upon me and the invitation appealed so irresistibly to my friendship and gratitude to our beloved teacher we had lost, that I could not decline it. I am delighted to have this opportunity of placing a simple wildflower of his own cultivation upon his memory in token of my humble love. I might well hesitate to stand here if I did not know that, enriched by the sympathy of this large, repre- sentative gathering, my words will seem to your generous hearts to prolong for a while the requiem that you would not willingly let die. “Nothing appears so transitory and fleeting as the life of man when compared with the apparent permanence of his surroundings. But things are not as they seem. There is a sense in which man has something like an earthly immortality. The generations come and go, but they do not take all of themselves with them in their going. They leave something behind them for weal or woe to those who come after them. A thousand men breathe, move, and live, pass off the stage of life and are heard of no more. Why? They did not a particle of good in the world; and none were blest by them, none could point to them as the instrument of their re- demption; not a line they wrote, not a word they spoke, could be recalled and so they perished—their light went out in darkness and they were not remembered more than the insects of yesterday. But ever and anon there comes a man of power who leaves a benediction to the world by making an impression for good upon its intellectual and moral life, which goes ringing down through the shifting’ scenes of time and the fleeting generations of men. For to be cold and breathless—to feel not and speak not—this is not the end of existence to the men who have breathed their spirit into the insti- tutions of their country, who have stamped their characters upon the human pillars of their age, who have poured their heart’s blood into channels of public prosperity. ‘These shall resist the empire of decay, When time is o’er and worlds have passed away; Cold in the dust the perished heart may lie, But that which warmed it once can never die.’ “When such men die, it is well to pause, and looking at what they have been, calling up their virtues, their achievements, their characters, fix in our hearts the memory of these and thus put our- selves to fresh obligations for their existence. And just this is the explanation of our gathering here today where our friend won love and respect by his well-spent life of industry, integrity and devotion to the cause of education and human progress, and as I address myself to the delectable task assigned me, well may I borrow those ele- quent words of John Temple Graves spoken of Henry Grady when he said: ‘No fire that can be kindled upon the altar of speech can resume the radiant spark that perished. No blaze born in all eulogy can burn beside the sunlight of his useful life. After all, there is nothing grander than such living—the grandest thing next to the radiance that flows from the Almighty throne is the light of a noble and beautiful life wrapping itself in benediction around the desti- nies of men and finding its home in the blessed bosom of the ever- lasting God.’ “Charles Summerville Roller was a fair representative of the age in which he lived; an age which forms one of the greatest and brightest eras in the history of man; an age teeming with new dis- coveries and developments, extending in all directions the limits of human knowledge: an age of marvelous growth of the brotherhood of man in the amalgamation of the different races of the world. The spirit of that age found a happy personification in the founder of this Academy. Providence was kind to him even in birth. “He was fortunate in starting out in life with the enviable asset of having mingled in his ancestry the blood of English, Scotch-Irish and German stock; hardy, pure-minded and stout-hearted men and women who sought in this new world that liberty of conscience and freedom of worship denied them by the state and the church of their respective mother countries. Moreover from both his paternal and maternal side he sprang from heroic soldiers of the American Revo- lution. The eldest son of Jacob Roller, a prominent and influential citizen of independent means of Augusta County, and blessed with a mother of rare accomplishments and a superior character, he began life under most favorable circumstances, having made his advent 6 into life at Mt. Sidney, a small town one mile north of here, on May 8, 1889. A native product of our soul, he may very truly be called an American of Americans. His memorializers tell us that ‘he was a bright, hopeful and athletic boy, with an inquiring, eager mind that drew attention.’ From his earliest years he was noted for his thoroughness and his progressive views and for a certain self-reliance. “The Creator endowed him with a strong mind and a retentive memory which he early began to develop. To this end he diligently used the advantages of school and college. To many youth itself is so sweet a siren that in hearing her voice they forget all but the pleasure of listening to it. But the sibyl saved no scroll from young Roller; he had the wisdom to seize themall. His class-mates, gayly returning late at night, saw the student’s light shining through his window. The boy was hard at work, already in the plastic years storing his mind and memory with the best of literature and historic lore. He seems to have acted upon the teaching of Gay when he sings ‘“Learning by study must be won; ’T was n’er entailed from son to son.’ “So faithfully did he apply himself while attending Parkins Classical School and later the Mossy Creek Academy, that when, in 1859, he became a student of the University of Virginia at the ten- der age of twenty years, he was found prepared for its course as a few of its students have ever been. In each of these three institu- tions he ranked high and graduated with distinction. “But his life of mental discipline did not cease with his gradua- tion. No doubt he had, during his student days found and laid to heart those sane lines of Pope! ““A little learning is a dangerous thing, Drink deep, or taste not the Pierian spring, There shallow draughts intoxicate the brain, And drinking largely sobers us again.’ “Practically to the end of this earthly existence he was a con- stant, patient, and devoted student. He was a great lover of books. They were his most intimate life companions. He had a fine judg- ment in their selection. -The great English classics he read and re- read many times. In his handling of books one could see that he felt that, as Milton had said, ‘a good book is the precious life-blood of a master spirit embalmed and treasured up on purpose to a life beyond life.’ “Mr. Roller had a decided social nature. His love for books never cut him off from a wholesome intercourse with his fellows. He entered fully into the college spirit of his day and indulged freely in the healthful sports of his colleagues. He had a charming per- sonality and attracted to him many warm personal friends. He was happily married to one who proved a true help-mate in life. He | made his home bright and cheerful. There was a charm about his home influence that was most delightful. There are those around me who have breathed the air of his home—that atmosphere of re- finement, taste, friendship and warm-hearted hospitality. Right well do we remember the conversations at his hospitable board, genially inspired and directed by him, on education, art, literature, politics, books and great times and great men. We distinctly recall his far outstretched hand of welcome when you arrived, and the glad exclamation: ‘Iam so glad to see you,’ and the beseeching tone when you departed entreating you to tarry longer or to return soon again. He had a keen sense of wit and humor and enjoyed a joke hugely. “Tn polities, Mr. Roller was a pronounced Republican, but could hardly be called a politician. He never held but two political offices, serving as a member of the State Legislature during the years 1871-3 and as Principal of the State Institution for the Deaf, Dumb and Blind, at Staunton for the years 1883-5, both of which positions he filled with marked ability and success. Other than this, his political zeal was confined to a keen interest in the welfare of his party in the state and the nation. “Our friend was endowed by nature with a remarkable firmness of character. He could bring his mind to a more complete state of discipline than any man I ever knew. He had such a just and com- prehensive view of all moral questions that he could readily distin- guish between the right and the wrong. Sturdy and uncompromis- ing in his character, he set his standard of life high and made his de- 8 mands upon his friends and students imperative. He was as im- movable in his principles as the lofty hills among which he lived. He could not be approached by any unworthy inducements. Neithr proffered honor nor intimidation could bind him. His life lies before us as an open book which contains no double meaning, no crooked passages, no mysteries, no concealments. It is clear as crystal. It needs no interpreter. The ends he sought were always noble; the means he used were always direct. Neither deception, nor conceal- ment, nor disguise of any kind or degree had place in his nature or methods. He walked in the light, and wrote his heart's inmost pur- pose of his forehead. No man can now recall a single word of tol- eration for a low and equivocal design which ever fell from his lips, but many a man can remember the kind encouragement which he warmly bestowed upon human and wordly purposes. He abhored with all his soul falsehood and dishonesty, and he had the severest scorn for the one who ventured to inform him against his fellow student. While not regardless of the good opinion of men, he looked first for the approval of Heaven. However one might differ with him on any question all readily accord to him their respect for his manliness and unflinching opinions which were always founded upon his honest convictions of right. “He found the straight and narrow way and to him it was safe. To him there came the clear sight that is ever the reward of unbend- ing recitude. His unyielding grasp upon the truth and the right as he saw it, his thorough dedication of himself to the highest and best: in life, combined to build for him in the hearts and lives of others an imposing monument whose symmetry and fine proportions no mere chance could create and which no accident can destroy. “Mr. Roller was a true patriot. He loved the land of his birth and was willing to sacrifice his life upon its altar of service. The call to arms in 1861 drew him, one of the best educated and most scholarly of the young men of the Southland, from the peaceful walls of the State University to the celebrated Stuart’s Cavalry, in which he served throughout the entire Civil War. He who knows the conspicious part played by that cavalry can understand some- what of the hardships he had to endure, the weariness of long i} marches, the pangs of hunger, the desire for sleep, all the suffering s for the poor, ragged and starving soldiers in grey he patiently en- dured. Many times he was in the whirlwind of the charge, and in the smoke and fire and rain of shot and shell which he always met with characteristic courage, facing death for the cause he loved. The day before the surrender of Lee at Appomatox he was wounded and captured by the Union Soldiers and for a short while remained a prisioner of war. There are those who would induce our govern- ment to maintain a large standing army in time of peace as prepar- atory to some future emergency which may require it. The bul- wark of the defense of our country lies not in such an army, but in the hearts of the American people. It is the citizen soldier like Chas. S. Roller, and not the mercenary hireling that this Republic must look for the protection of its rights and life. “Mr. Roller accepted the issue of the war between the states as the unerring verdict of high heaven. Disappointed he was that the cause for which he fought had not been victorious, but discouraged never. He went to work bravely and earnestly to do his part in re- storing the Southland to the old order of things. Like his illustrious Commander-in-Chief, Robert E. Lee, he chose the life of teaching as the field affording him the largest opportunities of repairing the havoe made by war. He was himself an educated man, a college bred man, and he knew, as every intelligent man knows that from the days when Themistcles led the educated Athenians at Salamis, the sure foundation of any government and the well-being of any people are laid in knowledge, not in ignorance, and that every sneer at education, at culture, at book-learning is the demagogue’s sneer at intellectual liberty, inviting national degeneration and ruin. He well knew that Tis education forms the common mind, Just as the twig is bent the tree’s inclined,’ and so he set himself to train the rising generation of his beloved land. , “Tn 1866 he began his first work as instructor at Old Stone Church in the Old Brick School house under the massive spreading oaks on yonder near-by hill. 10 ‘Delightful task! to rear the tender thought, To teach the young idea how to shoot; To pour the fresh instinction o’er the mind, To breathe the enliv’ning spirit, and to fix The generous purpose in the glowing breast. ’ “When it was announced that he had opened a school he could not accommodate the applicants and for the first two years he taught chiefly young soldiers whose education had been cut short by service in arms. That was the beginning of what was afterwards to be- come the Augusta Military Academy, our beloved Alma Mater, which he so long conducted in person as principal and teacher. “Por some years after he had built the splendid Academy build- ings the Old Brick School house in the grove of the Old Stone Church continued to be used as a recitation hall. It was most fitting that over the hallowed ground where that old building once stood the lifeless body of our lamented preceptor should be borne by sorrowing friends to its committal back to the earth from which it had come. “Prof. Roller was a prince among teachers. He was gifted with the instinctive talent of being able to impart knowledge to others. He was not only the master of the subject to be inculeated, but he understood the student whom he sought to teach.. He had the happy faculty of adopting himself to each individual student. Coupled with these was his commanding presence which enabled him to bring out and develop the best there was in a young man in in- tellect andin morals. He entered heartily into the life of those under his care. He kept himself in sympathetic touch with them. He had a way of gaining their confidence and of pursuading them to ; follow his leading in learning and in life. He had a magnetism that was irresistable and his more than 2,000 students held him in the highest respect, both as teacher, friend and man. He dealt with all the subjects he essayed to teach witha master hand, but he exceeded as ateacher of the Ancient Classics, especially those in the Latin tongue. Here he was at his best. No one could be under his in- struction in Latin very long without having awakened within him enthusiasm for that language. The passion of his life was to inspire his boys with a sober interest in the hard work of life and to pro- al vide them with that mental and moral furniture which would fit them to amount to something more than a cipher in solving the problem of humanity. “We who are factors in human progress are too close to give a just view of its true proportions, or to select from the processes those which are the most potent. We are like explorers wandering through a broken region, who magnify every height they scale into a mountain; that which is close at hand being the theme of their exclamations and the source from which their reason forms conclu- sions. These may or may not be correct. But let us withdraw, as men hereafter will withdraw with the Muse of History, from the lands over which we have toiled so perplexedly, and from the dis- tance view the contour of the country out of which details have vanished, and of which the prominent characteristics alone remain. Then we shall see before us a region, mountainous and bewildering indeed, but overlooked and dominated by a few lofty peaks, to which men shall give unforgotten names, and upon whose summits the sun of truth shall linger long after the subject lands lie in darkness and oblivion. Even so it will be with a few great names that, in the lapse of endless time, will survive and keep alive the memory of that noble company of educators who are doing such great things for the ushering in the dawn of millenium and among that company one of the highest, purest, and the most symmetrical will be Charles Summerville Roller. “The influence of an institution like this which he founded cannot be estimated any more than you can measure the effect of the sunlight on the trees or fields, or weigh the sweet influence of the’ stars on the thoughtful beholder. To every tnoughtful mind it is none other than a seminary where immortal minds are being trained for eternity, Those who labor here are building structures whose ° foundations will stand, when not merely temple and palace, but the perpetual hills and adamantine rocks on which these buildings rest, have melted away. Here lights are kindled which will shine, not merely when every artificial beacon is extinguished, but when the affrighted sun has fled away from the heavens. Our lamented friend took the initial steps in founding here a school whose 12 growth must extend over a period of many years after he has gone to the University of Heaven, for as one of the strongest poets has ruggedly and incisively put it ‘That low man seeks a little thing to do Sees it and does it. This high man, with a great thing to pursue Dies ere he knows it.’ ““We are assembled here today to dedicate in the honor of our much beloved, this handsome memorial to his distinguished service as a teacher, his high-toned honorable character as a man and his virtues and integrity asa Christian citizen, desirous of testifying by our words and actions the high esteem in which we hold him. The artist’s work has been most admirably performed. Here we plant our monument of love in order that from this day forth the genius of art may tell the story of his noble life as long as granite with- stands the elements, teaching the world the lofty lesson of his life and testifying forever to our reverence for his memory. May this Academy and country count it an honor to wear this ornament on their heart, and preserve it as a most precious heritage from those who love the memory of Charles Summerville Roller. History . ORE than a quarter of a century ago, when the State Sof Virginia, now famed for its many excellent schools, embraced but few of preparatory nature, 4 the Augusta Military Academy was founded to sup- ply the needs of the young men in and around Augusta County. The Augusta Male Academy, as it was then known, was a success from its incipiency, and from a day-school with a few boarding students, it rapidly developed into a boarding school with representatives from the adjoining states. Many of the Alumni of the original Augusta Military Academy hold to-day enviable positions in the business and professional world, and their regard for and loyalty to the school have been largely instrumental in placing the Augusta Military Academy of today among the fore- most schools of Virginia. The Academy saw the dawn of life in a small brick building theu situated in the grove of the Old Stone Church, about 300 yards from the present site. The increasing demands soon called for greater accommodations, and the grounds, comprising sixteen acres, were acquired on which were erected barracks and later a large academic hall. Year by year saw a constant increase, not only in better facilities but also in greater and more extended patronage. In 1906, the founder and owner, Chas. S. Roller, owing to ill health retired from active service, his two sons, Thos. J. Roller and Chas. 8. Roller, Jr., assuming control. Under their régime, the Augusta Military Academy has kept pace with the times, both as to improvements and a higher educational standard. To give its students every opportunity for development, both mental and physical, a modern academic hall and gymnasium has been constructed, which will compare favorably with any similar structure in the state. This year’s enrollment has passed the century mark, with boys from twenty states, the District of Columbia, Mexico, Central America and Canada. 14 With an enviable record behind it, the school anticipates greater future, ever striving for a higher degree of efficiency and keeping before it the knowledge that the school has in its hands in a large measure the molding of the character, the success or failure of our young men, upon whom will rest the welfare of our great republic.

It is yours by right, of conquest, Yours to keep, preserve and treasure, Take it, dearest, as I leave it, A lasting love, beyond all measure. Can I e’er forget you, loved one. You my conrade ever true, Ever faithful to me always, Surely there are none like you. I remember when I met you, In a bright September day How you nestled on my shoulder, In that old endearing way. Then they gave you me to dearest, Mine to keep, to have, to hold, And I cared as tenderly for you, Just as if you had a soul. Silent always, cold and steely, At times perhaps, alittle hard, Often I have cursed you, fair one, When you and I were walking guard. Many hours we’ve strolled together, In the concrete boulevard, A thousand drills have we attended, O’er the parade ground’s grassy sod, 30 Often, dearest, you’ve been neglected, And because of Major’s wrath, In my arms so tenderly folded, You and Ihave walked the path. Once I ‘‘fired’’ you, my Sweetheart, But you didn’t understand, For the kick you gave your lover, Made him drop you from his hand. In the end you forgave me, girlie, When the heat of wrath was gone, But beneath your face of powder, T could see a lingering scorn. ' Time, again made you my darling, Just as loving as before, And you sought my fond caresses, As you did in days of yore. Snuggle closer to me, deary, In a moment we must part, You to find another lover, I to heal a broken heart. Farewell, my girl, farewell forever, No more to see you from today, Teach some other boy to love you, As I was taughtat A. M. A. Weep not for me, darling Sweetheart, Suffer not for such a trifle, But I must always bemoan you, dearest, My own darling, Springfield Rifle. —H. A.

A good audience from Staunton, Harrisonburg and vicinity attended. ‘ On entering, the chorus and the interlocutor, Mr. ner a Fleming formed the letters A. M. A. The opening chorus was then rendered being followed by the introduction of the end-men—Graham Reid, Clemans and Acree. The songs, inter- spersed by jokes—most of them personal—rendered by the end-men and several of the chorus were enthustically received. The most popular were: ‘‘The Morning After the Night Before,’’ ‘‘Duck Foot Sue’’ and ‘‘ I’ll Make a Ring Around Rosie.’’ After the songs the final chorus was given and immediately following Clemans and Reid entertained the audience by an amusing dialogue. The declain- ation, ‘“‘The Prisoner’s Plea,’’ which was dramatically and credit- ably recited by Morrasy, concluded Part I. Part II represented a very realistic camp scene by night, depict- ing the entrance of a quartette of soldier boys which rendered several excellent selections. Tattoo was sounded on the bugle, followed by Taps, thus concluding the performance. To praise any one member of the company above another would be unfair, but several deserved special mention. Flemming, as interlocutor, displayed great dignity and poise in handling his men, proving that he was by no means an amateur. The end-men were all good and each shared honors evenly. The singing of Schwalb and Wiedel was also commendable, the clog dance of the latter being especially well received. The chorus fully performed its part and deserves great credit. It was composed of the following cadets: Arbenz, Ashby, Becket, Carpenter, Collingwood, Dudley, Fravel, Goodman, Hight, Jackson, Menefee, Rawley, Weidel. Too much praise cannot be given to Miss Maggie Bell Roller as musical director and to Captains Jacob and Wiltshire, of the faculty, as it was largely through their efforts that the enterprise attained its success. The performance was given for the benefit of the Athletic Asso- ciation, which we are glad to say realized quite a neat sum. a7 Augusta County Club AWB LL ZAINTSIS fansis co tiaradh estrous Seanstenaaiene ogee ted President Gag eR TUPONETIN ocr dovrece. ym seat bnswayontes maser Vice President .

Rarely, has the corps numbered over a hundred cadets, yet from such limited numbers, teams have been selected, the records of which, have reflected perpetual honor and glory upon the school’s fairname. Often have our teams fought under overwhelming odds, yet by the exercise of A. M. A.’s famous “‘do or die’ spirit, they have left the field of battle bearing the “‘laurels of victory.’’ By their ‘‘bulldog tenacity’’ they have excited the admiration and won- der of the spectators; they have put forth superhuman efforts in all heir contests, and though defeat may have seemed inevitable, they have never relinquished hope till the last man was down. From present indication, A. M. A.’s eviable athletic records, ids fair to ascend to a far higher plane of glory and brilliance than hat upon which it now rests. It is the writer’s heartfelt hope that these may not prove empty words; that Athletics at Augusta Military Academy may ever flour- ish; that the ‘‘Old White and Blue’’ may ever be guarded in the future with the same undying devotion as in the past, and that the noble spirit of A. M. A—the pride and boast of her sons—may for ime everlasting be the reigning feature of the athletic department. , ae) Football iy pds ace agence ater) Peoetde Bab es emetic Cen W. H.

Some may say farewell forever, Others go to soon return, But time alone can wholly sever, Comrades, who each other yearn. Now to those who are returning, Keep duty always in your sight, Nature spirit, keep it burning. Hold aloft the blue and white.

Unwrap the tangle from the dope and you can cop the bet We’ll play a double header pal, on any date you set.”’ He started warming up at once and with a happy sigh He whipped a fast one around her neck—the other was waist high; But here the umpire butted in—she said ‘‘O, father, please, Don’t call him out, he’s showing me the way they work the “squeeze.” ’”” : The Old Man gave an irate snort and said, “‘I’ll help the fun By showing him another play that’s called ‘the hit and run’; ”’ He swung like Wagner at his best—a sole inspiring clout— The Son of Swat slid down the steps—the umpire yelled, ‘‘You’re Out!”’ “FINIS’”’ 66 1 ( sl il Baseball COO ricoh. mano xoeg. ore 8 eete SOs eae hon S tetera C.

Of the fullback’s pluck, in the smashing buck, That carried him over the goal, Of the quarter’s brain, In the round-end gain, Is the story that will be told. Of how the halves rushed, in that off-tackle brush, The greatest play of the game, How the ends fought, Of the passes they caught, And all for the Varsity’s fame. Of course it takes pluck, to make a line buck, And it is hard to go over the goal, But let’s give some credit, We always forget it, To the man that made the hole. The ends were fast, and fought to the last, The quarter was certainly fine, The backs were great, But I pity their fate, Except for the man in the line. In the midst of the fight, with his brawny might, He charges the enemy down, : After each rush, Under the crush, Bleeding, the lineman is found. No one knows, of the awful blows, He takes without ever a sign, So fill up your glasses, To the man of the masses, The hero, the man in the line! —H. A.

From Atlanta I journeyed westward to Jackson, (Miss.) Dur- ing my short stay there I heard that Robinson was at the head of the Colored High School—and that ‘‘Shot-a-Hock’’ (‘‘Hawk’’) Rodgers had moved there and was running an artificial leg factory. Thinking I had enough of the ‘‘Cotton Land’’ I started North on a limited ‘‘Air-liner.’? At Danville there was a great commotion and on inquiring the cause of the disturbance I found that the famous detective Christian, had just captured a band of anarchists among whom was ‘‘Red’’ Hamlin. I was dumbfounded. On our way to Lynchburg our ‘‘Air-liner’’? was driven many miles westward out of her course, and we had to let down in some little town called Roanoke. Some French Physics shark, named Price, was mayor. Having recovered our course we arrived at “Greater Lynchburg’’ next m orning. Just outside of the city I saw O. B. Barker entering the office of the “Barker Fertilizer Coy” O. B. was also President of the Virginia Air Line Company. ‘‘Tow- Head’’ Gilliam was head waiter at the ‘‘Wright Hotel.’’ Acree was also.a waiter in this large hostelery. He was well-known for his love of ‘‘Pancakes.’”’ P. Clark was on the stage, starring in his role, “The Indian.”” ‘Jew’? Goodman of course, sports a diamond and a long swallow-tailed coat. x wn I next took an ‘‘Air-liner’’ to Richmond where ‘‘King Brady’’ Sutton met me and took me over to Jack Parrish’s Incubator Factory. and that ‘“‘Chubby”’ Jeffries was “Hunk’’ told me that Norfolk was a ‘‘deserted villiage,’’ Street Commissioner. I learned that Captain Jacobs had gone to Lynchburg to take up his duties as Principal of the ‘‘Virginia Christian College.’’ Four hours later I arrived at the ‘“‘Great White City,’’ the United States Capitol. There I met ‘‘Fatty’’? West, who t farm. at Chase’s Theatre in a comic act, over Baltimore I saw ‘“‘Ted’’ and charge of Dr. Dippy’s keepers. New York was on the map no mo city was completely destroyed. Joe Carpenter, command air fleet checked the advance of the enemy. Joe told me that ‘‘Jew’’ Ashby was a conduc an actress. of the ‘‘Air-liners’’ between Boston and Wheeling.

At Parkersburg ‘‘Paddlef toe of his ‘‘shoe factory.’’ oot’’ Graham greeted me with the In the meantime I heard the ringing of a (church) ‘‘Bell.’’ On asking why the approaching ‘‘Air-Liner’’ 76 was ringing its ‘‘Bell’’ so vigorously, ‘‘Paddlefoot’’ told me it was Valz’s—‘‘Nice places for ‘Bells,’ ’’ I said. As my Banker wired me that my account was getting low, I thought I had better conclude my trip by attending Finals at A. M. A., while passing the town of Woodstock our ‘‘Liner’’ had a slight mishap and we were forced to land. Out of the curious bunch of farmers, rubes and citizens, came a tall old man inquiring the cause of the mishap whom I recognized as old ‘‘Bull’’ Fravel. At Har- risonburg ‘‘Ike’’ Lowenbach in his Aeroplane collided with ours and we suddenly come to ground. Big “‘Ikes’’’ carelessness was caused by his being so much occupied with a ‘‘person’’ beside him. So we took the ‘‘Valley Creeper’’ to Fort Defiance, arriving at he beautiful Union Station but one second late. The first person I saw was old McKinney who came in the car to clean it as we were getting off. I hung my head and walked past him. Once outside I breathed more freely. How I wish I could describe the city—the city! Of course, ‘‘Grat’? Crawford was Mayor. ‘‘Skeat’’ Landes was President of a college called ‘“‘Dummie’s Retreat,’’ among his honored assistants were: Neff, Armentrout, Gallagher, for whom here was ever that wonderful attraction (?), and last, but not least, “Dong’’ Fraser, Professor of Music. Staunton had long since caved in, and those who escaped the terrible calamity moved to Fort De- flance.

Though near death’s door, by all the signs, A man got well who dealt in mines, For death may love a shining mark, And yet not love a mining shark. A dude went broke, and though it hurt, He hired out at hauling dirt; It’s hard to be a son of toil When you must haul a ton of soil. A business man may be in debt And seldom make a cent, and yet A rolltop desk and telephone, Kt cetera, give the pheletone.

The greater part of the contents is original, we, in few instances, , having borrowed some from outside sources. On the whole one may glean from the book.a fair impression of the school’s literary ability, a quality which never having been put toa like test before, deserves to be dealt with in a lenient manner. On no occasion have we intentionally indulged in any harsh personality, but, on the contrary, have endeavored to be impartial to all, a fact which we trust will be borne in mind in the perusal of the RECALL’S pages. The publication of the RECALL was suggested but a short while ago and this fact coupled with a rather limited financial support has prevented our making it an Annual of larger proportions. We trust that these obstacles may have been surmounted when the time for future issues has arrived, therefore, should this number fail to fulfill the expectations of our readers, we apologize for the disappointment which our ‘failure may cause them to suffer; if our efforts have not been in vain, we rejoice greatly in our victory. While we may feel some apprehension in regard to the RECALL’S reception, we experience not the slightest feeling of uneasiness as to the manner in which the drawings and sketches will meet the critical eye of the public. For these, we have been placed under perpetual obligations to Miss Van Devanter, of Fort Defiance ; Miss Landes, of Staunton ; Mr. Read, of Blacksburg, and last, but by no means least, Captain Wiltshire, of the Faculty. And now gentle reader, remember that this is a ‘‘maiden ef- fort,’’ and in so doing-ponder and reflect before you offer criticism. o a Never Yet Pretty girls by the score, Never yet.

Last year our College Annual and Catalog Printing was so satisfactory that its reputation brought us more work this spring than we could handle; we received orders from schools throughout this seétion of Virginia and were forced to refuse orders from more distant schools, some of which came from as far away as Georgia. Good printing requires thought and painstaking effort, as well as careful handling; our work shows evidence of thought on its every page and so brings satisfaction to our customers and holds the attention. of the reader. q We are still trying our best to do good printing; we are still increasing our equipment and our force. Next year we expect to be better prepared to handle college printing of all kinds than we have ever been. @ Have our man see you about your work, or if you are some distance from Staunton, write us. ee .
