BACK IN A DIME MUSEUM OF 2020 (JpADIES and Gentlemen, before we start on our round of the busts and statues ill and fossils of famous men and women, and especially those of the renowned L class of 1920 of Austin College which this museum contains, let me explain to you that for the small sum of twenty-five cents I will point out to you the chief char- Amalgamated Dime Museum.” Do not for one minute think that I am trying to string you, for I assure you that I have given much time and consideration to their lives and the why and wherefore of their place in history. Notice the beautiful decorations on the walls. They were painted by the world renowned painter, St. Gaudens. Facing us is the statue of Shem Prater Cunningham. Notice his all-conquering air, lofty brow, blank expression, and folded arms. The trustees were in doubt as to whether to use him or Napoleon at the entrance of this room, but they finally decided on Cunningham because of his colossal and far-famed Did you ask if that was Socrates? No, sir, that is Joe Dickson. If y more closely, you will see the cracks in his cheeks where he grinned once tot to see which could tell the “biggest one” and Dickson succeeded. But the eff Where? Over there? Yes, that is Jonathan Edwards. No, ma’am, he’s not the one you are thinking of. This was a great prohibitionist and introduced the camel into likeness of Francis Powell. Notice his hawk-like eyes and aquiline n complexion and curly hair. They all denote him a fighting man, no his early marriage. He richly deserved the inscription, “Brave and B those days it took a man with lots of nerve and money to marry. ;, his beautiful a special room lined with asbestos and made as fireproof as possible. His Titian hair merely reminds us of his bellicose youth. Why is the hole in the face? That is the result of one of his favorite sports and even his bust is no less subject to it. The slit in the forehead of Stollings, there, was made by a woodpecker who drilled through to the hollow where the brains are supposed to be located. There he built a nest where he is raising several woodpeckers, junior. Mrs. Woodpecker says that it is the best house she has ever been in. Her husband seconds the motion.

It was then that the young braves of the country declared a meeting and no less than campus of Austin College has been the favorite powwow rendezvcus of these happy It is true that our number has lessened since that time; still there is much for which we may be proud. Our class began with the largest membership in school and finishes with a greater number than any graduating class With which we have been As freshmen we looked up the mountain of progress and beheld the senior through a misty haze of distance. We felt that the attainment of an equal height was a con- summation devoutly to be wished for. Now, as we stand on the summit, it is easy to look backward, but the space seems but a day, and alas, alas, where is the glory? Other classes have gone out with the satisfaction of possessing some differenti- ating characteristic. Our class is peculiar in that respect, inasmuch as during the entire seventy years of the histcry of the administration no class has ever before been composed of any but men, but ours is the novel distinction of embodying two While this is true, it has never been the aim or desire of this class to be so prom- stitution. We stood firmly in the protection of senior rights and privileges long be- fore we were seniors. We did this, both because it was expected of us by those who preceded us, and because we expect it of those who are to succeed us. Our watch- word is “Loyalty.” Ever have we striven to maintain and merit it. We have dem- onstrated loyalty to the nation by answering its call for help; we have upheld loyalty to the institution by advancing its standards and compelling its membership to be re- spectful towards it; we evidence class loyalty by our compact unity and by protecting CLASS OF 1921 White Carnation.

ARMENDT JUNIOR CLASS HISTORY Q TILL on the highway which leads on to the cap and gown , the class of '21 with diminished numbers is struggling upward in the night. Although our number has been decreased to one of the smallest that has ever constituted a junior class of this institution, we cannot say we are altogether disappointed. To be sure, we weep for those who set out with us from fishdom and have fallen by the wayside for va- rious reasons; but especially do we weep for those who jerked their noses from the grindstone only to put their shoulder to the wheel of bc-forgotten President, “King” Loper, of fate is in store for our present leader, the redoubtable “Brickley” Smith. such as baseball, basketball and track. But besides these general characteristics, there is not a single member of the class who does not possess some individual talents for which he or she has become famous with the student body. For instance, we have J. D. Miller who puts old Shakespeare to shame and his classmates to sleep with his poetry while at the same time he spreads mow, imaginary train robberies, and receiving of pink letters. And there are Rob- trasteJ with these are Baker, Miller and Austin who we expect to rival Demosthenes But now I turn necessarily to the beauty of the class. It consists of two real class sisters, Grace and Katherine, both loved and admired for their sweetness of disposi- tion, their never-failing smile, and their good sportsmanship. Grace is distinguished as being the first girl to take Greek in Austin College. She has the sympathy of having done anything extraordinary, ich arc- the deeds and characteristics of the individual members of our class which make up the class history. Many are the other deeds of renown and valor which it relate but for lack of space. We only hope that we may succeed the present Class and take up its several duties and perform them in a manner a little bet- an they have done and consistent with our deeds of foregoing years.

SOPHOMORE CLASS HISTORY 777HE Sophomore Class—the most outstanding class in the college—has (][ now come to the second chapter of its history. What new victories and glories have they to add to the annals of their fame? It is im- possible in the small space allotted for this purpose to describe them all. The purpose of the writer, then, will be to review in a cursory way those of seemingly greatest importance. In the two years of its history, the class has given distinguished rep- resentatives to all departments of athletics and to the various phases of college life. Not only are the pages of Sophomore history filled with the daring deeds of its athletes on every gridiron and diamond where never once have they allowed the “Maroon and Gold to trail in the dust, but the high standing of the class in intellectual lines is equally worthy of men- tion. In oratory, no class can produce such orators as Reynolds and “Foch.” The astounding alertness with which Sophomores give “word for word” definitions in mathematics, the wonderful understanding of Chemistry and ready answers in Spanish and History, are all of equal note. Last but not least is our President, who has served us well. His renowned attribute is the able way in which he handles the delicate affairs that arise when the co-eds attend class meeting. Although the co-eds did not attend the meet- ings with regularity, it was not because they hated to see their class brothers so “maltreated” at the hands of the spatters. Last year one of our classmates and a co-ed made the highest average in college, and several other members were on the honor roll, and we feel CLASS OF 1923 FRESHMAN CLASS HISTORY fjHT is with profoundest appreciation and unbounded joy that we are per- mitted a page in the Chromascope for preserving for all the coming v generations the history of the most famous class in Austin College. Though it would take the hand of a Boswell to do justice to such a class in recording the events of its first year’s life, I have been called upon and therefore without making any apologies I shall tell you something of these sturdy Americans who are gradually rising to the heights of fame. Not caring to begin by the “in mcdias res method, I shall carry you back to the seventeenth of September, 1919. It was on that most memorable of all days that Austin College had its doors darkened by the appearance of real students, for then we gathered from far and near. Life for us be- gan in the usual way—an introduction to college officials: Faculty, admin- istrative officers, and last, but not least, John Hardy. And then came the judgment day, and with it the second state of our evolution. On Monday evening, as fish, we were led into the court room but sad to say were given seats on the left hand side of the Most High Judge. Perfumes of limburger, clanging of chairs, and frequency of spats, characterized the place. ’Tis needless to say that all these novelties made a lasting and deep-seated impression on us. After that day our life was one of joy. During the year we have at- tempted to be as loyal students as possible. We have gladly answered every call made upon us. We have furnished nine men for the football varsity. Four of the big five took their seats in the freshman section in chapel and we predict that the Kangaroo nine will find a likely lot ot our recruits among its candidates. We are proud of our athletes, for they nave done well. Then, it is with proud hearts that we would have you glance at the fiont row of the Freshman chapel section. There is the flower of Austin C-iUege. In both quantity and quality these young ladies excel. We have them, we honor ihem, and as the days go by we realize more fully what Our history has been brief, commensurate with our life. Yet it has been eventful to us. We hope 1920 will see many of our number return and the great work we have begun continue far into the future. HISTORIAN. SUB-FRESHMAN CLASS ent........................F. S.

A great many members were added to our class last September with a warm and hearty welcome. We regret that our former president, Jack Nesbitt, could not be with us again this year. The vacancy has been filled by our now loyal “Itch” We are very proud of the scholars in our class, especially “Itch” and “Charlie.” The outstanding feature of these two boys is their knowledge of plane geometry. With these samples it can be plainly seen that the “prep” class of today is the senior class of tomorrow. The “prep” class is represented in all branches of athletics in the school: football, basketball, baseball and track. In football we were repre- sented by two letter men. We had a few men on the scrub team whom we hope will make the team next year. We are represented on the basketball team this year by five men. W e also had one letter man in basketball. The “preps” finished last in the bowling contest between the different classes. Most of our attempts for a class team in other sports have failed but we have one in baseball that we hope will be a winning team. To the Class of ’20 we w.sk a bright and successful future; and hope that we may make such a freshman class next year that we may reflect glory upon ourselves and honor upon our chosen institution. HISTORIAN. ORGANIZATIONS BOOK III. COURT OFFICERS W. H. McCARLEY E. D. GRANT C. K. HOLSAPPLE Attor Judge Clerk STUDENT COURT OR years the conduct of the student body of Austin College was under the con- troll of the upper classmen of the college. Originally this power was invested in an organization known as “Kangaroo Kourt,” and under its regime the order of personal rights and gentlemanly conduct of the men in the student body were well However, in the fall of 1918, as a result of some unfounded rumors concerning the workings of this organization, “Kangaroo Kourt” was permanently abolished by the Board of Trustees. With the “Kourt” no longer in existence those influences which “Kangaroo Kourt” made it its business to keep down soon became the ruling influences of the life of the student body. For nearly a year the students were without a right arm by which they might protect themselves against invaders of their peace and harmony. Soon it became ev- ident to all that some organization would have to be formed to take up the more serious duties of the old “Kourt” and curtail the powers of the undesirable elements in their midst. For this purpose a new organization known as “Student Court” came into existence. Since its beginning it has served the student body well. It has stood for those things that the men of the institution hold dearest, and has made its sole pur- pose that of preserving the honor, the peace, and the rights of the student body against all those who would seek to invade or in any way curtail the enjoyment of those rights. To those who in the future have the Student Court in charge, we wislr the highest degree of success and may you keep unsullied from all invaders or intruders the tradi- tions which we and those who have gone before hold dearest in our hearts. preserved.

Much of its work is co-operative—and some times even coincident—with that of other agencies, especially in physical and mental training. But the “Y” has a sphere all its own in spiritual training; this is its prime purpose, and this is what gives it a unique place in college life. Working in co-operation with other organizations and assist- ing each in its peculiar task, the Association attempts to add to all other results the much needed moral and spiritual training which alone ennobles character. This outstanding, unique purpose has been attained in some degree by the Austin College “Y” during the past ytar, and plans are being made by which it shall be realized even more during the coming school year.

GARLINGTON STANSELL LOWRANCE SLAYDEN SLAUGHTER CASE HOWARD ATHENAEUM PRESIDENTS “By their deeds ye shall know them.” RIOR to the year nineteen hundred sixteen, all students of Austin College attended a literary society by faculty regulation. This prac- tice revealed the fact that a society member whose attendance is un- motivated and is prompted by mere compulsion is a positive liability to his society. Therefore, in that year the faculty abolished their regulation and subsequently literary society attendance has been optional. The Athenaeum Literary Society feels a legitimate pride in the fact that it was able to retain a large per cent. of its membership and that it has succeeded in maintaining the “Old Ath.Spirit.” It is our conviction that perseverence and tenacity must win and with this policy it is our pur- pose and intention to carry the banner of maroon and gold to an even higher position. While it is true that the society remains constant in name, principles, policies, and ideals, yet its active membership is constantly changing. Still we rejoice in the fact that to pass from the society hall is not to pass from the society proper. Four years is quite enough time for the Antheaeum Society to stamp its indelible imprint upon the minds of men. This fact is attested by the return of its alumni members. “Once an Ath., always an Ath.” is our slogan. However, realiziing that “The mill will never grind with the water that has passed” and that our future possibilities lie not in our present and past membership but in that which is yet to be, we are impressed with the necessity of choosing new men from year to year. In mature life we expect to reflect with fondest reminiscences upon our literary society associations and then more than ever do we hope to be able to appreciate its value as an instrument of intellectual improve- ment.

Yet there remains, as with the other ac- tivities of the year, the writing of the epilogue. But who is there that is able to tell the history of our Society? Does the enumeration of the many intersociety contests won, does the calling of the roll of those who, having left our halls, continue to be a power in the larger spheres of action, does the tabulating of statistics concerning in- creased membership, in short, does the recording of such material deeds comprise our complete history? It is with just pride that we think of these, but there are those intangible things which, though they may not be meas- ured, play even a more important part in our history. Chief of these is that old, much loved and feared Phil. Spirit. That Spirit, imbued in the breast of every loyal Phil, often has brought victory from apparent defeat; it has been the beacon in many a storm, and though at times weak, it has blazed forth this year at full strength to shed its light even into the blackness of the coming year. Nor can the part the Society has played in shaping the lives of the members, and in providing that train- ing in speaking so essential to the educated man be expressed. Its in- fluence will continue to spread like the ever-widening circles which event- ually lap the borders of a disturbed lake. As we look back we rejoice in the success of our undertakings, though the retrospection brings anew to us the thought that there is still much to be done. With a vision enlightened and with hearts strengthened we soon shall go forward with our work where we now have left it, confident that in the same Phil Spirit as of old we shall crown all our endeavors with suc- cess.

These rather youthful children of the college are a 20-piece band and a male quartet. The quartet is youthful in organization, and also in personnel, but fully matured in musical ability and performance. Its repertoire, at present limited, disclos s a taste for the difficult, and with the help of Mr. L. Beane, as accompanist, the members hope to have a variety of numbers be- fore the close of the school year of 1920. The progress of the band has been seriously retarded by a delay in the repair shop where several of th old instruments had to be sent, but con- sidering the late start and unavoidable delays, the college band is rapidly becoming a real asset to the college, and no doubt will yet furnish valuable assistance to athletic events, and amusement for the boys after supper on the campus. The personnel of the band reveals quite a number of excel- lent musicians ; though they are all amateurs, a few are showing the stuff that produces professional material.

Freeland to the position of Director of Athletics in Austin College, no one realized how much had been done in helping to put Austin College on the map in the Athletics of Texas. He has meant more to our team than possibly all other factors combined. As an athlete, Mr. Freeland has himself made a wonderful record wherever he has been. After beginning his athletic career in a preparatory school where he became very prominent, he entered Vanderbilt in the fall of 1908. While there he won thirteen letters, four in football, four in base- ball, three in track, and two in basketball. At Vanderbilt he gained a won- derful reputation as a defensive player in football, and for three years he was chosen as a member of the All-Southern football team. In 1909 he won the medal for the highest individual score in the Southern Track meet at Birmingham, Alabama. As a coach, Mr. Freeland has served very efficiently in several col- leges of Texas, and in every case has produced a winning team. It is no wonder, then, that Austin College had a football team last fall that was by far the best we have had for years. This year he gave to us z basketball team that was given second place in the state line-up. The fans are expecting also a winner in baseball this spring, and one that will be a worthy rival to any other team in the state of Texas. We hope that Mr. Freeland will be with us again next year for we feel sure that he will give us the best athletic record that Austin College has ever had. FOOTBALL SQUAI) J. B. Park, better known as “Red,” was our center and captain. Although handicapped by light weight and slow- ness, he more than made up for this by his fighting spirit and qualities of leadership. He was without doubt the best passing center in the state, going the entire season without a bad pass or mixing signals. Since he graduates this spring, we will miss him very much next year. S. P. CUNNINGHAM Guard Cunningham was another “old timer” whose worth to the team can be esti- mated best by the fact that he was picked as a member of the Second All- State Team. He smeared many a play behind his opponents line. He weighed over two hundred pounds and was a “bear” at opening holes for the de- fensive. He graduates this year, and his shoes are going to be hard to fill. G. R. SENSABAUGH Sensabaugh was the original hard luck boy. Having been out of college for a long time, it was hard for him to get back into condition. He served as tackle part of the time, but gradually improved in condition till he was ‘‘right.” Then he took his old place at full again where he made a batter- ing-ram look like a toy. The “big fel- low” had everything, was a good pun- ter. passer, smasher, and had more fun than anybody on the defense where he played a wonderful game either at tackle or backing the line. R. R. LOVE Fullback and Halfback Love, full and half, was the “utility” man, working well everywhere. He was a powerful defensive man, a great line bucker and the best forward-pass “tosser” in the state at the close of the season. He had remarkable speed and accuracy with the pigskin and the ability to find the open man quickly. He ought to help us bring the “pig- skin” home next year. J. L. BARBER Halfback Barber at half was in poor physical condition in spite of the fact that he had good habit and was a good con- scientious trainer. He played his best games against Baylor and Trinity. In the latter he ripped off many yards. He had all the speed and nerve neces- sary but seemed to lack confidence. We hope Barber will do some physical labor this summer and come back and play the football in 1920 that he can. R. A. MOREHART Quarterback and Halfback Morehart, quarter and half, was easily our best ground gainer. He could squirm through center, twist through tackle, side-step around ends, or grab a pass with the same ease and grace. He played a splendid game at safety, also, both on offense and defense. “Annie,” as a compliment to his great season’s work, was unanimously chos- en captain of the 1920 team, and as such will set a pace hard to follow. L. H. MONZINGO Risht End Monzingo, on the right wing, was strong on passes but rather weak on defense. With a little improvement on tackling “Monty” will make a wonder. He certainly had the speed and pep and could grab those passes with the best. R. C. MOSELEY Quarterback Moseley at quarter was another who served his apprenticeship with the lowly scrubs. At the latter part of the season he had the best football head on the field and ran the club in great style. He had all the pep and nerve that his limited frame could hold. He even learned to catch a pass occasion- ally. This lad will bear watching. W. L. GOLIGHTLY Halfback Another man, Golightly, at half, was hurt in the Baylor game and played very little after that. He was probably the fastest man on the squad, a dandy receiver of passes, a sure tackier, and had a large supply of nerve and grit. He was very small but could certainly find a hole somewhere and was a good ground gainer. We wish “Stepeasy” better luck next season. C. A. WILSON Left Tacfele •‘Tubby” Wilson started the season slowly, but speeded up in every game till Thanksgiving. He was a regular lightning express that day. The Trin- ity Tigers looked like common house- kittens to him. The big fellow was a splendid punter and kick off man, and will no doubt make them all take no- tice next year. Judging from his kick- ing in the Trinity game, the parks will all have to be enlarged. T. W. ERWIN Guard and Tackle ‘‘Bill” Erwin was handicapped by injuries most of the season, but cer- tainly made up for lost time when he did get into the game. Horned Frog meat suited his taste best, for he cer- tainly made the T. C. U. men hate to hear their signals called. His playing against S. M. U. is also especially commendable. ‘‘Bill” will be one of the best linemen in the state next P. D. ROBINSON Left Guard and Tackle Paul Robinson, from Burleson Col- lege, played guard and tackle and filled each place well. “Robbie” was never flashy but was as steady and consistent as an old work horse, and was always in good condition because of never breaking training. He was especially good at getting down the field on punts and getting the man be- fore he got up speed. E. J. DYSART Sub-Lineman Dysart did not get much chance to show his wares but certainly did come to the rescue when some of the regulars were out. He was a hard worker, had lots of nerve and fight, and with a little more weight and experience will cer- tainly be a valuable man. He did his best work against Baylor. CLARENCE GARY Left End At left end, Gary had things to him self. This was his first year on the team, but he played a hard, smashing defensive game. Toward the close of the season he could spear a pass al- most anywhere in his neighborhood. He got some good experience last sea- son, which will make him an excellent man for 1920. j. l. McWilliams Half Back McWilliams at half back was fast, was a good side stepper, and made the best tacklers on the squad, and was good at breaking passes. He was always in the game, and certainly had nerve to spare. His fumbles were costly in one or two games, but he overcame that fault to a large extent and wasplaying a great brand of foot- ball when the season ended. J. U. CALLAN Right End Callan, who also played end, was not even a regular scrub for half the season, but by consistent work and the old fight he gradually improved till he was given his chance in the T. C. U. game, taking the pass which beat the Frogs. He became a great defensive end and was a handy man to have around.

A. WILSON Basketball Captain tt'TjJUBBY” Wilson captained this year’s basketball team and with his “stellar goal throwing” and “fight at center” he was a great factor in putting our team to the front. Sensabaugh ‘came back” to us this year with all the “old time fight” that he dis- played in 1917. and when “Jerry” was out of the game even the score showed the fact. Barber was also responsible for the fact that our team showed up so well. Opposite Sensabaugh at for- ward he showed that he “had it with him and would give it up.” Love and Gary at guards kept the ball out of the opponents’ ter- ritory most of the time, and not only that but in many cases were responsible for a good many goals. Besides these regular men such players as Monzingo, Smith, Morehart, and Hurst were al- ways to be depended upon when they were stuck in, and they contributed their part liberally to making the team what it vai. BASKETBALL SQUAD Freeland Sensabaugh Lc Smith Wilson Monzingo Gary Barber Morehart BASKETBALL FOR 1920 i ASKETBALL for this season seemed to take on an interest hitherto unknown in Austin College. From the first game with S. M. U. at Dallas, although we were defeated by them, until the last second of the victory over the “Medics” from Baylor Medical College at Dallas, the students were behind their team and were more than disappointed when the results of the out of town games were slow in rolling in. The Kangaroos opened their season with S. M. U. at Dallas. When the last whistle was blown, giving S. M. U. the game, there could be seen on the countenance of each A. C. player the spirit of “wait till the next game.” And, Oh! how great was the fulfillment of the desire for revenge when it did come! The score at Dallas was 40 to 20 in favor of S. M. U. The defeat at Dallas was more than covered by the defeat here of Phillips University by a score of 38 to 21. A. C. was one of the two schools in Texas that walloped this bunch, Texas University being the other. The two games with Southeastern Normal of Durant were easy victories for A. C. as the scores show. The score for the first game was 46 to 27, and for the second 44 to 14. With Sensabaugh and Wilson both out of the line-up we were defeated at Dallas by Baylor “Medics” by the score of 42 to 9. This defeat was soon wiped out by beating Trinity University by a score of 53 to 19. Then came the “big event.” Not a student witnessed the S. M. U. game in Sherman who was not thrilled contest from S. M. U. was broken when we beat them by a score of 30 to 27. Then, according to the Dallas News and other papers, our team was “clearly outplayed” in two games by Baylor University at Waco, but the scores show different. A. C. beat them the first game 21 to 19 and the second game 52 to 49. Alibis are always pushed forward by a defeated bunch but could it be said that a 37 to 33 defeat by T. C. U. was justi- fiable when the team was forced to play a game one night and get up at 3:00 A. M. for a hundred mile ride and then a game at 3:30 in the after- noon? Baylor was “slipped up on” in Sherman and defeated in two games by scores of 31 to 19 and 50 to 20. But it’s funny how easily some teams outplay their opponents and are “slipped up on” and defeated at the last moment. The season had a glorious wind-up when the bunch from A. C. defeated the Baylor “Medics” by a score of 32 to 17. This was another case of sweet revenge. The season was more than a suc- cess. Ten games won and three lost is a record not to be laughed at. Our team was given third place in the championship list for the State of Texas by an authoritative sport writer. TRACK SQUAD STANSELL POTTER DYSART LARIMORE BRYANT PAGE MILLER, W. O. MILLER, J. D. BUTLER TRACK FOR 1920 ®RACK activities have been unknown to Austin College for the past four or five years with the exception of a few interclass events. However, this year, with a coach who has had training along this line and who is interested in putting Austin College to the front in such affairs it seems that A. C. is to see once more the sports common to the “cinder path.” Some men have already started training along this line, and Austin hopes to send a delegation to some of the inter-collegiate meets that will make a showing. The men that are showing up along this line are Larimore, Oberschmidt, Stansell, Miller, Dysart, Wilson and Chap- man. It is hoped that in a few weeks more men may take hold and enter this branch of athletics and that Austin College is able to put forth a good group of track men. CHE j auspices of the Y. M. C.

During the football season of 1919, Austin College had two such men to whom we are greatly indebted for their tireless and in- exhaustible energy. They were ever faithful to their task, always running over with the true Austin College spirit, never relinquishing in their efforts to keep up the spirit” in the grand stand, and above all, they always kept up the “pep” even when the score was rolling up against us. Through their extremely contagious zeal and enthusiasm on all occasions, our student body took on more life. This same zeal caused all who ever saw our student body “in ac- tion” to admire our feeling of loyalty to our club, and to re- spect more than ever before the well-known Austin College spirit. To these two men, J. L. Dickson and W. H. McCar- ley, do we extend our sincerest appreciation for their lead- ership and for the enthusiasm which they continually pro- vided and kept revived in us. REMINISCENCES BOOK V. SENIOR TREE PLANTING «JUST before sun set on Thursday, March the nineteenth,the Seniors 'Jl gathered on the east edge of the campus to plant their tree. Mr. Cun- ningham, class president, introduced the speaker of the evening, Mr. Kerr, one of the best known horticulturists in the Southwest. Mr. Kerr spoke feelingly of the need for intelligent citizenship, and he urged that the outgoing class be awake to its every opportunity. But he would not have them forget the aesthetic pleasures of life; rather did he insist upon more attention to such things as flowers and trees. And in a most striking way did Mr. Kerr trace the growth of their importance upon our advancing civilization. Dr. Clyce was next called upon, and responded by congratulating the class upon the many advantages it has enjoyed in attending this institu- tion, and charged every member to be faithful to its trusts. Dr. Clyce called attention to the uniqueness of the class, stating that there was never before a class like it—that it is both handsome and beautiful. He then promised every care and attention for the tree, and invited the class to return in future years and rest under the shade of its branch and live over again the old college days. The class president then asked one of the young ladies who was pres- ent to put in the first shovelful of dirt ever thrown on a class tree by a young lady in Austin College. After Mr. Kerr had honored the class by throwing in a shovelful of dirt, the members of the class went to work and filled up the hole with a will. WITH OUR SISTERS ''VTOVEMBER the eleventh! How many memori It came like a beautiful star in the darknes: C it the right to live and to be happy. In full recognition of its meaning to us, our sisters invited us to cele- brate its first anniversary by spending the day with them in the home of Miss Nell Dorsett. It was truly a delight to be in a home like one happy family. And when we were called into the dining room at one o’clock, we felt indeed that our sisters had divined our every wish. Every one of the five courses was genuinely enjoyed. And the fun came when, with the last course, each received a toy typifying his most marked characteristics, and accompanied by an appropriate verse. This was certainly a revela- tion ; at least we could see ourselves as others see us. The afternoon was spent in animated conversation and impromptu musical numbers. And we were having such a happy time when we re- membered that such happy times must end and that the evening rays were beckoning us back to the campus. As we gave our charming hostesses parting greetings, then it was that we realized that “that which is most like home, and yet is not home, is found in the home of a friend.” Y. M. C. A. RECEPTION TO THE ATHENAEUMS s one of the first Co-eds in Austin College, and, being one of the first C to become a member of the Athenaeum Literary Society, I wish L to speak a few words of appreciation to you. When we came into the College but were still standing on the outside of college life, there was one organization. whose representative very bravely stood up in Chapel and extended a cordial invitation to all the young ladies to become Athenaeums. And numerous other times was this same invitation given publicly. We cannot express to you how deeply we appreciated your attitude toward us, but as a result most of us—all but one—decided at once to become Athenaeums. Though we have our own Literary Society this year and are no longer active members of your soci- ety, we are in reality, as much “Aths” as we ever were. Not only are we Athenaeums now, but nothing can ever alter our sentiment for the old May you ever live, grow and succeed in every enterprise is the earnest desire of your Co-ed members. L. B. P. KAPPAS OPEN MEETING |t N March the twelfth the Kappa Gamma Chi Club held its first open meeting in the College Chapel. This is a literary club only recently organized by the Co-eds, and it is to them what the literary societies are to the boys. It has as its object to acquaint its mebers with the best in literature, and to inspire in them a deep and abiding interest in social problems. Thus far, excellent work has been done, and it was with pleasure that the club opened its doors to visitors. Plans are now under way for another open meeting more in the nature of a social affair. The regular study program was the only offering for this evening. The president spoke the words of welcome and then acted as leader for the following program: The Presidential Election.........................Miss Lola Belle Perkins Out of Siberia ......................................Miss Margaret Vest A Message from the Imperial Japanese Government--------Miss Sybil Rudasil LYCEUM FOR 1919-1920 (Tj VERY year Austin College brings to Sherman, one of the best Lyceum llj courses to be had. This year no expense was spared to obtain the best C numbers possible. The course was well balanced there being instruc- tive lectures by noted men as well as wholesome entertainment and en- joyable musical numbers. Several of the numbers, notably Irvin S. Cobb, Arthur Walwyn Evans, and John Kendrick Bangs delighted Sherman au- diences for the second time. Many of the students availed themselves of this opportunity of hearing nationally known artists at such small expense. The people of Sherman likewise cooperated in making this course the great success that it was. A full house greeted every number. Plans are already being made for the Lyceum next year. Fourteen numbers have been secured and though the course this year has been the The first number of the 1919-1920 season was A. Mather Hillburn, impersonator. This highly skilled artist portrayed various types of Amer- ican life making the changes in costume before the audience. In his acting these types he left no doubt in the minds of his audience as to his ability. Laurant, the man of many mysteries, furnished his audience with an intensely interesting entertainment. Some of the acts of this premier magician of America seemed truly wonderful, almost supernatural. His lest act and one which brought down the large house was his taking of flags of various nations of the world and from this conglomeration there issued the red, white and blue of the Star Spangled Banner. The play, “A Creature of the Sea,” was presented by the Little Play- house Company, of Cincinnati, a company of five people. Pitt Parker, crayon artist and clay modeler, gave his number before a large audience. His crayon pictures were really works of art and as such could not be distinguished as else from a distance. His clay modeling brought forth all the finesse of that art. His models represented their types. Anne Therese Davault, who was in great demand at War Camp Com- munity entertainments, pleased a large audience with readings taken from several well-known books, among them being “The Melting Pot,” “The Music Master, “Peg O’ My Heart,” “Polly of the Circus,” “A Christmas Carol. and others. LYCEUM FOR 1919-1920 CONTINUED The first musical number of the course and one which delighted the music loving people was the “Metropolitan Singers.” The company con- sisting of soprano, contralto, tenor and bass, with pianist, gave a program made up of oratorio and operatic selections, as well as some popular songs. The De Mille Quartet’s repertoire included selections from great ora- torios and operas as well as English, Scotch and Irish melodies. The solo work of each member of the quartet was especially well received. Two solo violinists, a cello and flute soloists, piano soloist, and accom- panist, with John E. Howard, a member of the St. Paul Symphony Orches- tra, as director, made up the personnel of the Howard Quintet. Their in- terpretations of the many classes of music were very pleasing to music lovers. There is no need to dwell on the merits of Irvin S. Cobb. In his return engagement here he spoke to an audience in spite of the rainy weather. His lecture, “Made in America,” convulsed the audience with laughter. However, it was not all laughter as it was intermixed with a few serious stories. Arthur Walwyn Evans, relative of Lloyd-Greoge, made his second visit here giving as his contribution, “The Lords of the Land.” His oratory again delighted the people of Sherman and his humor made the lecture interesting as well as instructive. Another lecturer who made his second appearance here was John Kendrick Bangs, an author and editor of international repute. His lecture, Salubrities I Have Met” brought his audience to a more intimate ac- quaintance with men whose names are known all over the globe. He read several selections from his own works. One of the best numbers of the Lyceum course was the delightful mus- ical program of the Sam Lewis Company. Every number of the program was generously applauded and the soloists were called back for a second and third encore. The inimitable Mr. Lewis himself, who is considered one of the best ballad singers in America, delighted his hearers with his interpretation of popular ballads. PUBLIC SPEAKING AND ORATORY ®HE Alumni Monthly, under date of August 1, published an article that was quite interesting to many of the old students. It contained the information that there would be courses available to all students interested in a department of public speaking and oratory, credit commen- surate with work done to be allowed by the college faculty. The work was to be under the direction of Miss Ella Day, a graduate of the depart- ment of oratory of the University of Chicago. During the rush of classification, quite a number of the more serious minded students of the institution found time to give the matter of enroll- ing in the department careful consideration. The result was that in the formation of classes, all college classes were represented. Courses in public speaking, expression, reading, and oratory were offered. As the majority of the students taking the courses had had little or no special training along the lines studied, the initial work of the department was rudiamentary in character. The specialization in declamation was evi- denced in a declamatory contest held within the department in December. At the present time the subject of speech construction is being studied by the more advanced classes. The work of the department has been good as a whole, and the in-, structor in charge is to be commended for the great amount of patience and tact that has characterized her work. A great amount of good has been derived by the students from the department, and it is hoped that it will be included in the regular curriculum in the near future. PHILENNOIANS ENTERTAIN «VTERHAPS the most substantial offering to this year’s social calendar 13 was the Philennoian banquet of Friday evening, March the twelfth. X Each member was allowed to bring one visitor, a prospective member. Several “Phils” of former days, the society sponsor, and one other young lady were invited. One end of Luckett Hall dining room, decorated with college and soci- ety pennants and banners formed an appropriate setting for such a feast. The table had as its center piece a large Philennoian banner. Dainty place cards in the society colors of black and gold marked the places, and crystal bowls of salted nuts completed the decorations. In another corner of the hall was the attractive punch bowl from which delicious punch was served throughout the evening. The following program was rendered while the feast was being served: Welcome Address ..................................Hudson Are Fish at A. C. Hazed?............................Paxton Should Students of A. C. Making an Average Grade of 85 Per Cent, be Exempted from Final Examinations?.................. Interesting and inspiring talks made by Messrs. Paxton, Wilson, Stew- art, and Gray were warmly greeted. The members of the society who served on the program acquitted themselves well. After the program, a short business meeting was held, at which time new members were received. Nine men, completely captivated by the “Phil Spirit,” were accepted. This affair was truly a success in every way, for “stately was the feast, and high the cheer.” ALUMNI AND EX-STUDENTS SV USTIN College has, without doubt, as loyal a group of men in her Alum- (A ni Association as any other college in the State. They are active in all the interests of the college, and have ever proved true to their Alma Mater. At no time have they ever been called upon for anything that did not meet with hearty response. For years this group of men have been kept directly in touch with Austin College through a publication known as the Alumni Monthly. It is published purposely to acquaint the Alumni and Ex-Students with each other’s whereabouts and in order that they might the better keep up with the happenings of the “Old College. At present this work is in charge of R. R. Wilson to whom much credit is due for his ability to carry on such During Commencement week of this year the first real home-coming of Alumni and Ex-Students is to be staged at Austin College. Several hundred have already promised to be on hand for these few days, and all are prepared for a big celebration. It is with the greatest pleasure that the class of 1920 looks forward to the privilege of joining this association. When in the future the Associ- ation is looking about for loyal and dependable workers may they find that all in our class will be more than ready to “fill the bill” and ready to “pull PHILENNOIAN FEAST Friday evening, January 23, was one of the coldest evenings of the winter outside, but the Philennoian went into their society room, which was comfortably warm and had a strange aroma. Upon looking about, a pot of boi.ing coffee was found on the stove, and further investigation disclosed a table centered with a blooming plant, and laden with all sorts of things for a feast, fit only for such a society as this—sandwiches, pickles, potato crisps and angel food cake—a greeting from the Philennoian spon- sor, Miss Gladys Cornell. But true to the Philennoian theory of business, the regular program was followed by the pleasures of feasting on these sweet meats, a fit morsel for such sons of oratory and public speaking. JUNIOR DINNER PARTY (TFT HE Junior boys’ own sisters, Misses Grace Eagleton and Kathryn yj, Pittman, only girls of the class, honored their brothers with a seven o’clock dinner on the evening of January sixteenth, in the home of Miss Eagleton. Class colors of old rose and Copenhagen blue were much in evidence in the receiving rooms, and in the dining room they were especial- ly prominent, the table being centered with a crystal basket of carnations in rose shade and sashed with the chosen shade of blue maline. Individual crystal nut baskets were tied in similar coquettish bows and place cards were also decorated in class colors. Six courses of delicious edibles were heartily enjoyed by the honor- guests amidst the joy and gaiety of youth. The evening hours were spent in games, story-telling and music. And though all would have said, “Go not, happy day,” time stays not, and farewells had to be spoken. SOPHOMORE FEAST gTHE six girls of the Sophomore class were hostesses to their brothers VSJ' the .evening of February twenty-first, in the home of Miss Margaret Vest. The house was decorated in flags and ribbons of red and white and blue in honor of the season. Progressive games were the feature of the evening’s entertainment and in these Mr. Paul Stansell received the prize. In an animated contest between Messrs. Foshee and Oberschmidt as to which could consume the more string and capture the marshmallow in the center, thus determining which would be the first to fall before Cupid’s darts. Mr. Oberschmidt was successful and received a “diamond ring”—one step in the preparation against that day. In another contest, Mr. K. M. Larimore was successful in telling the most unbelievable un- truth, and was appropriately rewarded. The prize was appreciated by Mr. Larimore but it hardly compensates for the loss of the confidence of his friends. At a late hour the guests enjoyed refreshments of salads, sandwiches, hot chocolate, and angel cake. The boys were very grateful to George Washington for having a birthday and only wished that he might have an- FOOTBALL MEN’S OYSTER FEAST R. and Mrs. Clyces’ oyster supper on the evening of December eighth was a fitting close to the football season. The reception rooms of the Clyce home were appropriately decorated in the college colors and football insignia. In the dining room, a football, suspended in the door- way, was the center of decoration from which radiated streamers of crim- son and gold, forming a canopy over the room—a veritable symbol of the glorious sunset of this year’s football season. The tables were centered with huge bowls of candy made by the girls of the college. Several of these young ladies assisted in serving the five courses of lovely viands. During the evening several talks were made by members of the var- sity squad, each expressing confidence in the next year’s squard. Dr. Clyce expressed the appreciation of the college for the work done by the squad last season, his personal interest in athletics, especially football, and voiced a spirit of optimism for the future in this phase of athletics. Coach Free- land expressed his satisfaction with the work done, especially in the latter part of the season when the squad worked in earnest. He also announced the names of the sixteen men to whom football letters were awarded. The letter men were then asked to vote, by secret ballot, for captain of the 1920 team. Raymond ( Annie”) Moreheart was the unanimous choice for leader of the Kangaroos next season. In response to the call for a speech, Mr. Moreheart expressed his appreciation of the honor and pledged his most faithful efforts in filling the position. Several of his team-mates told of their determination to make next year’s team the winning team of the state. The spirit thus created speaks well for the 1920 season. And Dr. and Mrs. Clyces’ delightful hospitality holds no small share in arousing this enthusiasm. THE ANNUAL SPELLING MATCH ®NCE more Kidd-Key won the spelling match. For twenty-five years previous to 1917, Kidd-Key had not lost a single match; but in that good year Fortune smiled upon her sons in Austin College and for the past two years they have been the victors. On the evening of last Decem- ber fifth, surely it was the Kidd-Key girl who smiled all too profusely on the Austin boys, for certainly for no other reason would they have marched down those steps and left the stage to the girls. And who finds it in his heart to blame the boys, for were the girls not lovely in their dainty frocks of white carrying beautiful flowers? However, the contest was not easy and it was sometime before the entire Austin team went down. But when it did there were but four of their fair opponents left on the platform. Those who spelled were: For Kidd-Key—Misses Helen Joe Winkler, Emma Mae Wilson, Neil Miles, Beulah Lee Jackson, Ethel Lanier, Galela Patterson, Ruth Randol, Imogene Pleasant, Marjorie Wyman, Genelle Works (Captain). For Austin—Messrs. J. D. Miller, E. T. Austin, E .A. Moore, Volney Cavitt, P. D. Robinson, B. F. Armendt, M. L. Baker, J. G. Estes, Wm. R. Smith, Rupert Smith (Captain). Mr. Estes was the last man to leave the platform, while Misses Winkler, Lanier, Randol and Wyman were the four young ladies who were not spelled down. The enunciator was Miss Gafford, of Kidd-Key College, and the judges of the match were Miss Lillian Womack, Professor C. B. Flow, and Professor Charles Parker. After the close of the spelling match according to the long-established custom, rules were suspended and a most enjoyable social hour was spent. RECEPTION OF NEW GIRLS YOUR BRAIN LITERARY BOOK VI. PRELIMINARY ORATORICAL CONTEST EDGAR LEON FOSHEE “iCACH year, on the twenty-second day of February, there is held in Sherman Hall a preliminary orator- ical contest to select a competent man to represent the college in the state contest. Two contestants are se- lected from each of the college societies. After the conclusion of the last speech, the judges render the decision. This year the decision was given in favor of Mr. Edgar Leon Foshee, a member of the Philennoian Liter- ary Society. A WASTE OF HUMAN INTELLECT TTHE aim of America is justice. That very document which broke the ties that bound us to the mother country was a declaration for justice and equality to all; and this same sentiment has directed our national policies, permeated our institutions, and guided the thought and words of our people even unto the present time. And Texas, the brightest of all the stars that shine in that constellation of forty-eight, had declared for the same principle before she came into the Union. And never yet has an injustice been suffered, never an unfairness perpetrated which the public of our State could mend, but which when brought to the public in its true light was mended. Nevertheless, there is an injustice in our land today, in our own fair State of Texas, and it extends from the northernmost reach the east to the mountain pass which is the western gate. It is an injustice to a boy. There is an injustice to a boy whom we all know, one upon whom we all depend. The only one, he is, who greets the waking sun with part of a day’s task completed; whose stirring first arouses the morning cock, and who is not yet done when the evening star has grown bright, and all is quiet save the tinkling of a bell; a boy so sung as to be forgotten; whose day is full of work, and not all communing with nature; who treads a pace for every stalk we see in rural fields; who is envied, but not imitated by many —the country boy. In Texas, he who does not live on the farm has it at his door, and can recognize its needs, and so they are not strange words in which is garbed this message: “A careful investigation of the situation in Texas makes it clear to the student that the chief weakness in the educational system in this State is due largely to rural school conditions; which schools constitute A WASTE OF HUMAN INTELLECT by far the larger part of the State’s educational system.” “By FAR the larger part!” “The LARGER part!” And yet, is it the country boy whose mind is seized as soon as he has clambered down from mother’s knee, whose precious intellect is cultivated as the Easter Lily, and for whose benefit all science, all knowledge, and all experience must come and spend their pow- ers? Nothe! Not he it is whose training, in an intellectual atmosphere —the best of schools—is hurried on by chosen tutors at whose hand is ev- ery book or instrument they need, no lack of room, buildings, funds, or supervision. Not “the larger part.” The “larger part” can see no golden stair of learning, step on step, extending from his feet on up and up, without a break—at the top a glory as of a rainbow burst, and in it standing a man in cap and gown, holding the highest degree any university can confer. Instead, he counts seven steps at most, one for every grade in his school, and then can see no more, for to see the stairs two faculties must be employed; the will to climb, supported by the power. And as he sits and gazes at the rough walls of his lone schoolroom, or out the window at the few square yards of rocky ground, or takes his turn with seven grades to rush through a recitation before a weary teacher, no vision comes to him of education’s stairs. And if it did, he could not climb, for what power has been given him? The causes of the inefficiency of our rural schools have been diagnosed by eminent educators, and remedies proposed and tested. And oh, that Texas may not be longer backward in accepting There has been an indifference, first of all, a lack of interest, not only on the part of the boy, but of his parents. The first task, then, was to create school sentiment, a definite wish for, and determination to have, good schools. Twenty-five years and more ago this was begun. Official action came first. Results were slow. Another law was passed. More A WASTE OF HUMAN INTELLECT A WASTE OF HUMAN INTELLECT CONTINUED And thus is his ambition rebuked, and left to wither in his bosom. But we hear of a new school, tested and proved, which should flourish at the gate of the country boy, for Mr. Doughty says: “Sending country boys and girls to the towns and cities for enlarged opportunities will not satisfy the demands of the country people........I plead for a country high school system for the entire State!” Train the farmer boy to the farm, not away from it. The need for him is there. His best chance is there. Give him the agricultural and vocational high school and see prosperity reward the investment—statistics show that in proportion to the amount of money a country spends on education, its prosperity grows by leaps and bounds; see a church spring up, a worthy mate to the school; see the very face of the country in smiling sunshine of better conditions, grounded on higher aims. Then if his talents lead elsewhere than the farm, his powers at least have not been wasted by neglect. “Without the well educated, broad-minded, sympathetic teacher, any system of education can only be a lifeless mechanism. Therefore, the pub- lic must look to the country teachers and their preparation and see to it that they shall be men and women of the best native ability, the most thorough education, and the highest degree of professional knowledge and skill,” a rural school specialist has said. Noble, our teachers certainly are, sympathetic without doubt, giving themselves unstintingly, spending more effort than they should for the sake of doing their best. And still, is their best sufficient? What should be the preparation of a teacher? Would one ask too much to say, “At least a high school completed, with two years in normal school for professional training?” Too low is the standard now. e cannot have it said again that “the ignorant teach the more ignorant.” The one out of nine teachers who is a college man has for his nearest com- pany the two out of ten who are normal graduates; and looking up to these stand the five out of twenty who finished only high school. Timid, indeed, A WASTE OF HUMAN INTELLECT must feel the three out of ten who graduated from NO school, along with double that percentage who had no professional training. But are they to be blamed for going no further? In this day of commercialism and in- dustrial activity, in this day of the union and the high wage, who is the least paid man who works? In this day of speculation, in this day of the police strike, who kept his head and stayed longer by his job? The teacher. The teacher with duties surely as exacting, with responsibilities surely as great, surely as important to the economic and industrial development of the State as the hod-carrier—why is he paid scarcely one-third the hod-carrier’s wage! Human sufferance has an end. Now Texas is learn- ing a dear lesson in the alarming loss, during the last year, of one-third of its best teachers; in the hundred thousand children roaming the roads and streets this day for want of teachers;; in the four thousand novices, mere children themselves who had to be accepted as teachers; and finally, and perhaps most prophetical of all, a loss of thirty-five percent, in num- bers being trained for the profession in normal schools and colleges. The lesson is that an adequate salary must be paid the public school teacher to justify him in preparing himself for a life profession of teaching, else our schools, and especially our rural schools can never perform their func- tion of giving us an educated mass of citizens. At any cost, real teachers Not only in this regard shall Texas redeem her obligation to the coun- try boy. In addition, the method of taxation will be amended to include a county tax, so that the wealth of the towns and cities may help the neigh- boring rural schools; consolidation will be pushed in order that the ele- mentary schools may be more efficient; the school term divided, where necessary; homes for teachers the rule instead of the exception; and the vocational rural high school surely established. Will the people of the A WASTE OF HUMAN INTELLECT CONTINUED towns and cities rally to the call ? It is their votes and their money which will decide the fate of the boy for whom I plead! Does it not mean some- thing that he was a boy from a country town who gave us the lights that shine on us tonight? It is of no significance that from the farm came such a statesman as that gaunt but illustrious figure of Civil War times, who, loving the Union as he did, yet in the greatness of his soul was able to deal with the South with commiserating heart and pitying hand, and in his wisdom had mapped out such a plan of reconstruction as to bring him the eternal love of those who fought against him? Does it teach no lesson that the country brought forth him who led our armies over the seas and with his magnificent skill wrought victory a year sooner than had been hoped, saving the lives of a million American sons, and the heartbreak uf a million American mothers ? Incalculable is the waste of intellect in our neglect of the country boy. How many times in him lies dormant a Har- riman or a Burbank, a McCormack or a Sousa, a Riley or a Clay, a Morley or a Mayo, a Moody or a Billy Sunday! Oh, may he be no longer hid! What if God had not trained Moses ? Even those four score years, were they not worth while? What if Bacon had not had opportunity to “make all knowl- edge his province?’’ What if King James had had no learned men on whom to place his precious task? What if Shakespeare had had not even his small Latin and less Greek?” What, indeed, would the world be today were all its geniuses untaught and unnoticed—the tragedy of it!—as is the country boy of even our own State? Or what, indeed, might not the world be today had the present condition of darkened lights not so long prevailed! And what, indeed, will be the world of tomorrow, when the country boy has THE TRIAL OF THE FRESH BRIGADE THE SENIOR MIRROR 'JP� EPICTING intimates is ever a hard task—especially when those por- TJ trayed have the opportunity to call the authors outside for a personal (_ conference. Therefore, this task has been imposed upon a board, and on their behalf, we invoke your forbearance. GLADYS M. CORNELL Gladys M. is a product of Kidd-Key. That’s a whole lot to say, isn’t it ? Whenever any of her former fellow-citizens want to advertise in chapel something to occur at Kidd-Key she welcomes them, sits by their side on the front row in chapel, and indicates the proper point for the students to laugh. She’d make a fine sheep herder. In her are blended the graces of a lady of the land, and the sweet win- someness of womanhood, with a dash of gladness and sunshine mixed in. LOLA BELLE PERKINS Lo and behold! Here we find a woman who has brains 1 Not that no other women have such a head filler, but that she has. Some are born with brains, some achieve brains, and some have calves’ brains thrust upon them. Lola Belle was born with them—at least we think so. In the course of time we look for her to fill at least a half-column in “Who’s Who.” Like her co-sister she entered Austin College in her junior year. Now that she is a senior she has amply proved that she is worthy of the esteem and regard of her fellow-students. JONATHAN EDWARDS Whoops-te-lollies! Here comes someone who can tell the difference between a Ford and a Cadillac. Some people cannot see how Greek and autos can get together on any subject, but J. Flop has solved the mystery. How ? Why-er-when he takes a girl out joy-riding and his stock of English love words gets stale or thins out, he can draw on his Greek vocab and tell her the old sweet story in a new form. Poor girl 1 Here’s to Jonathan Flop Edwards, a true friend and a gentleman under any and all circumstances. THE SENIOR MIRROR CONTINUED EDWARD DONALD GRANT In this unassuming young person the world will find a brilliance hith- erto undreamed of—a brilliance that will shine through all the centuries lighting the dark corners of gloom. In short, we find in him a male Poly- Paddy is a friend worth having—one who will put himself out to help you, especially if you happen to be his particular lady friend. Here’s to Paddy—may he live long and prosperously. W. HOWARD McCARLEY “Nick” would look better if he wore a moustache. We saw him with fallen in love with him on the spot. As the ladies said: “He certainly is cute!” He looks like Apollo, Webster, Dr. Jekyl, and John, the Y. janitor, all rolled into one. Should he ever become president of a company pro- moting Alaskan oil stock he certainly would make a “go” of it. SHEM PRATER CUNNINGHAM Shem is too confounded big to say anything against him so we will swallow our pride and say some nice things. Shem was born in the days of forty-nine in the bad lands of Wyoming. He came to Austin College during the flood and straightway found his place in the hearts of the girls. He believed woman to be a surer source of education than Le Conte’s text, and consequently went to see them frequently. Moral—there are more chickens in the world than those that squawk. JOSEPH LEE DICKSON Joe can be anything that he wants to be—he’s a jack of all trades. He can speak and he can sing, he can write poetry and he can play jazz, he can make a humorous remark or a sad one, it’s all the same to him. He went over to France and when the kaiser heard of it he knew all was lost and straightway sought refuge permanently in Holland. Dick came home rejoicing. THE SENIOR MIRROR CONTINUED ROBERT VERNON GUTHRIE If there is a shortage of boot-blacks Gotch can easily fill the gap. Ac- cording to actual timing Gotch spends four hours, ten minutes, and seven seconds a day shining his shoes. We don’t see any use in it except that he would rather that people should look at his shoes than at his face. When all has been said though, Gotch will still be found standing by his convic- tions as a man should. JOHN BENNETT PARK Will Red ever be a bigamist? We do not believe that such a crime will ever be laid at his door. Why? Well—just because he isn’t built that way—all his philosophy and inclinations show him the beauties of a bache- lor’s life. But to come down to brass tacks, Red deserves much credit for his ability to mix with the boys. Such a quality will carry him far, and may good fortune shine upon him all the way. CLARENCE M. STOLLINGS Clarence has been one of our recent acquisitions. As a legacy from the class of ’18, he brought with him the old traditions, and we are glad he wound up his business in France in time to be with us this June. We see quite a bit of him when he speeds by on his motorcycle, and it is our firm belief that if he would cultivate the pedestrian side of his life more, he would have better success in his chosen field. FRANCIS W. POWELL “A new broom sweeps clean” is one of the many things we have learn ed from this K. K. prof, we found in our midst one September morn. In- vestigation has shown that he acquired his gentle manner and unobstru- sive habits by an intensive course in ambulance driving in la belle France. These qualities have won for him a place in the hearts of many of the younger co-eds, and we frequently wonder what they will do for a vamp proof man next fall. By way of explanation, if anyone should wonder where the other mem- bers may be, we invite your attention to the editorial we—that’s us. A COLLEGE TRAGEDY A SURVEY OF LOCAL STRATA (A Report by the Senior Geological Survey). S geology is the physical history of the earth and its inhabitants as recorded in its structure, so this is de- signed to give the history of the class of 1920, as record- ed in its conduct. No attempt will be made to give a dynamical history of the class, this calling to mind such extinct and defunct animals as whisky and bevo who once walked the sea shore of this continent. But going directly to the structural de- partment of the work, we find that in the dim days before the dawn of history there existed vague forms of life—in- vertebrated specimens of future students. This cycle has been called the Prepozoic Era or Age in which there was some Evidence of Life. All eras are characterized by fos- sils. in this era we find some very interesting specimens. Probably the most noteworthy monotreme found is an an- ticipation of the ganoid, or the type of original boneheads. The earliest specimen found has been called Coahomalepsis Gotchiardii by the discoverer, Prof. C. C. Scott. As it is customary for geological writers to proceed from the older to the newer order of strata in order of deposition, I next call your attention to the Freshozoic Era, or Age of Fishes. During this vast era the fish were the rulers. Swimming the seas were such great orders as the Jonathadoselache Edwardii and the Dipnoan Parkski. How- ever, the ruler of the entire cycle was the genera of Foshep- terian. By the last named order the absolute determination of the strata is known, as it is a matter of general knowl- edge that this type became extinct at the end of this period. A SURVEY OF LOCAL STRATA Following this period, deposited uncomfortably on the strata beneath, occur the deposits of the Sophozoic Era. These deposits are peculiar in their abundance of fossils. During this era the three toed horse first becomes notice- able. Its presence has been noticed in several sections of the country, appearing chiefly as Holsatherium. However, the characteristic fossils of this era is the great order of Grantaliosaurs, represented in the present era by the Pat- erodactyls. The most fruitful field for the production, of this animal is found in the permian strata of northern Ire- land. In this age, the disappearance of the order of mega- cheirons is noticed. Just before its culmination this order took various forms, the last survivor being the glutton. Unless we admit periods of rapid evolution, we will be forced to grant the existence of a long interval before the deposition of the next strata. The fauna of the Juniozoic Era shows the introduction of remarkable genera. The location of the fossils is assigned as extending from the eastern por- tion of Williamsland to the Grand continent. The struggle for life occasioned by the appearance of these monotremes was evidently very exciting, as we find frequent evidence of such in the disturbed condition of the bones of the contem- poraneous animals. The separation of this era from the Seniozoic is rather a matter of technical discrimination than one of broad di- vergence. The fossils of the more recent era are all higher forms of some earlier generalized type, and exhibit many of the traits of their ancestors. The domination of the Ele- phas Cunninghamnesus is evident; this order seems to take the place of the ruling tribe of Nickosaurians of the Juniozoic. From this point on, the matter is properly the subject of the archaeologist and the historian, rather than of the geologist, and full treatment is given under these heads.

With deep dark eyebrows arched and raised. And teeth of pearl, and raven hair. My thoughts on thee they lingered long. My heart I could not still, While in my throat there dwelt a song That now is hushed and still. My love for you was true and pure As ever love could be, While as for you, I am not sure And now my heart is rent in twain. My soul is crushed for aye, My love is dead, and ne’er again Will I be free and gay. But as long as waves toss to and fro On life’s unrestful sea, There’ll be with me, where’er I go, A lingering thought of thee. “For once in love, always in love” Is a maxim that they tell, And I believe it as I believe There is a Heaven and Hell. ALL’S WELL THAT ENDS? ALL’S WELL THAT ENDS? CONTINUED ALL’S WELL THAT ENDS? CAMPUS CHATTER CAMPUS CHATTER There are lots of times when a boy sure is glad that he isn’t a girl. Not that he does not like girls but that he naturally prefers being a boy. More especially is this true in the month of March when the winds blow and blow and blow. We notice that the girls have a hard time battling against the wind. We suppose that at the end of the baseball season the New York Giants will claim the championship of the world. They cannot do that— they have no right to unless they have defeated all contenders for the title. We have picked out an all-star team from among the student body which we believe can take the title from the “Giants.” Nay, we are so absolutely sure of it that, though we are not betting men, we would bet a peanut against another peanut that our choice for the world’s title would win. We picked the following from among those who tried out on the cam- pus Thursday morning, March 25, 1920: catcher, Margaret Vest; pitcher, Durelle Noe; first base, Mary Abrams; second base, Alton J. Du Puy; third base, Mary Emma Thomas; short-stop, Shorty Hubbard; left field, Paul Reid; center field, Bob, the pup; right field, Hal Howard. It will be seen from the above list that Bob, or rather His Pupship, can be used in either outfield or infield and this fact will help the team a great deal. An umpire has not yet been selected, but we would suggest Mrs. Freeland or Miss Horton. Inspired by the success of the great horse show in Fort Worth re- cently, a group of enthusiastic seniors proposed to put on a local horse show, only to have their performance broken up by a swarm of vicious, low-minded horse-flies.

Some people think they know girls from A to Z, but as for us, they will always be as the riddle of the sphinx. Why ? Because, during history roll-call the other day. Prof. White: “Mary Abrams—” Mary: “Hello.” Now we do not know just why she said that. Maybe she was dream- ing about “her feller” or maybe it was just a telephone habit of hers. We’ll let it go at that; psychology is too deep for us. The habits of young ladies in leap year sometimes assume queer forms. Only this year, here in our own midst, we had the privilege of seeing the ultimate outcome of such habits. One day, while Felix Leslie and Sibyl Rudasill were in Thompson Hall talking, the spirit of leap year suddenly flashed into the eyes of the young lady. The man, perceiving his danger, ran for the outer air. He reached the porch—he looked back over his shoulder—his pursuer was close behind with the look of conquest in her eyes. Shutting his eyes, he made a great leap. He reached the ground, but found that his ankle was broken. “For the female of the species is more dangerous than the male.” If you are an Englishman or from Missouri, don’t read this. “Nick”: “I’ve got to go to town tonight, and I must change my breeches.” “Zeek”: “What’s the matter?

Nor has this one been any exception to the rule. Therefore, the Editor wishes to take this opportunity to thank some of those who have helped to make this book a success. None have done more toward the making of this book than the mem- bers of the Staff. And to these does the Editor express his heartiest appreciation of their untiring efforts and their willingness to perform all the duties that were laid upon them. To the Art Editor, the Business Manager, the Advertising Manager, and the Literary Editor, the Editor is very greatly indebted for the great amount of time they have spent in helping to plan this book and in making its publication possible. Nor can the kindness of Mr. L. L. Jobe, who has made for us several cartoons, be forgotten. And to Mr. L. Beane and to Mr. J. L. Walton also is much thanks due for their kindness and willingness to contribute their art work to the Chromascope. Many other students have also done much to help the work by their literary contributions. Among these must Mr. J. A. Creighton especially be mentioned. Much thanks is also due our Photog- rapher and Printer for the information which they gave us in telling us how to plan and form our book. To these and to many others too numerous to mention is the Editor indebted, and through the efforts of these men chiefly is this Chromascope THE EDITOR. Ainiertfsements BOOK VII. FROM THE STUDENTS 7 O those who have advertised with us we pledge our loyal support and our patronage in re- tivities and their kindness in mak- ing the publication of this book possible.
