The power and significance ,of that character depends largely, perhaps mainly, upon what is called the Faculty, and of the Faculty and of the whole body, the head, if it has mind, and the heart, if it has soul, should be the President. Q i ' ' P Beloit College has been singularly qortunate in Presidents havingovital con- nection with it in all the length and depths of life, President Chapin shared or led in the first thoughts and yearnings of its 'est spring-time, and after fifty years his closing eyes rejoiced in the Chapel, 's the finest blossom of its opening summer. Of the many tlianksgivings eered his last silent years, none could have been more high and deep 2,I'I1a1'1tlC had fallen upon shoulders so fit to bear it. 'Dwight Eaton was by birthright a son of the American College, ' say, of Beloit College. He was born january 12th, 1851, the irst class graduated from Beloit College. His father, Rev. 1, a graduate of Yale, a pioneer missionary in lVisconsin and rs of Beloit College, still sits, with its first instructor and its graduate, in its Board of Trustees. His birth place, Lancas- as a frontier county seat in a mining region, but- the influence his father and his gifted mother, and Hon. J. A. and Mrs. ROiof Mrs. President Eaton, made it a center of education. Prdie 1185 Sent Other good men to Beloit as well as those Egamilies.

In the same year he went to the war, with the Christian Commission. He entered Beloit College in 1868 and graduated in 1872, as Valedictorian of an excellent class. In whatever his hand found to do during his course, he did his best, which is success, and in his case it used to win the prize. The same rule has had the like result in his subsequent life. I-Ie next studied Theology at Andover and at Yale, where he graduated in Divinity in 1875. Miss Martha E. Barber, daughther of Hon. J. A. Barber, of Lancaster, be- came his wife August 23C-l, 1875, and accompanied him to Europe, where he spent the next year, principally at the Universities of Liepsic and Heidelberg. On his return he was ordained, December, 1876, pastor of the Congrega- tional Church in Newton, Iowa, and remained there until 1879, when he was called to the Congregational Church of .Oak Park, Illinois. Here he was for six or seven years a leading factor in every good word and work in the busy world of Chicago. But neither there or elsewhere had he forgotten his Alma Mater, nor had she forgotten him. He was able to do her good service as Trustee, and when at the resignation of President Chapin, in 1886, he was unanimously called to the Presidency, his return was like a coming home. Equally unanimous was the welcome of his predecessor, and the Faculty, students, Alumni, and friends of the College, while the greeting of the World of Letters was expressed by the Degrees of LL. D. and of S. T. D. from the neighboring Wisconsiii and North- western Universities. But it was no empty honor. Grave problems were waiting. The resources of the College, always inadequate, had been reduced, while the need of the region and the time required great enlargement. In the first cares and- labors the new President had the aid of his predecessor in the charge of the finances. Their cordial co-operation illustrated that generous sympathy which has always been the spirit of Beloit College, as well as the nature of these two men. . During the first two years of labor, President Chapin sank under the burden. But when hand and voice failed, he was still permitted to look upon the sudden whitening of the harvest in the spring of 1889. The unexpected call from Dr. K. Pearsons found reapers ready, and within the six weeks his SIOO,-OOO hadgcalled forth another S1oo,ooo. Scoville Hall is among the 18 memorials of this effort. Later years have seen, by the generosity of the same donor, our noble Chapin Hall, and by his gift again, supplemented by the large liberality of W. E. Hale and many other friends, the magnificent erec- tion, equipment and endowment of our Science, Building, Pearsons Hall. Over against this Temple of True. Science, stands the Shrine of Pure Faith, the exquisite Chapel, built and hallowed by the piety of the women of Wiscon- sin. Its beauty and harmony of architecture, adormnent and adaptation, the music of its chimes, its organ, its anthems and its hymns, and its thought- ful, soulful exercises express the President and the College, and impress every son or visitor of the College. Meanwhile the former Chapel, so gracefully designed, and so worthily used by the former President, has again found worthy use as the Gallery and School of Fine Art-a department which owes much to the cordial sympathy of the President and of the Trustees who stand around him. Not the least of the achievements of his administration is the gathering of that remarkable Board of Trust, in which, with men who founded the College, sit the younger men who have had their part in the making of the great ln- terior, and are minded now to build a College worthy of the future, as well as of the past of this Land of Promise. They make their faith perfect by their works. , -,In the Faculty, also, the chosen sons of the College and of other colleges are coming in to enlarge the work of the College and to make good the places of those who have gone or are going. The close of the first seven years of President Eaton's administration finds the Academy and the Scientific Departments equipped, as well as manned for the best and most complete work-a Dormitory and Boarding Hall affording excellent accommodation at the least expense-and an ideal Chapel, and large additions to endowment. The property of the College has been increased threefold. What has been done is but the commencement of what must be done, but a President, fit to plan and to lead, is supported by Trustees, Al- umni and friends, by Faculty and by students, able and willing to do their part to make the College such a power for all good as the region, the land and the World have need of. Seven years more will bring the twentieth century. May President Eaton be here then! What shall Beloit College be then? . JOSEPH EMERSON. Q M2594 I F CUT YN 0 I PH 19 1Rev. Baron itucius Gibapin, BD. EJ., ll. EJ. To a life devotedthroughout its whole extent to promoting human welfare, it should be a care with every one to build a monument in his own grateful remembrance. The best of all monuments, it is true, which can be reared to the work of men, is that book of remembrance in which, in the archives of the Divine Kingdom, the loyalty of citizenship therein is eternally recorded. 'But if, apart from the memorial human character leaves of itself in the enlarging of the empire of the Lord, the generation which succeeds to the inheritance of a good man's beneficence ought gratefully to cherish the tradition of it, how much more does this devolve upon that generation on whom that beneficence has especially been exerted, and who live in its scenes and in the very midst of the harvests it has planted. VVe desire to enter in our volume our respectful and affectionate tribute to the memory of the first President of Beloit College. Aaron L. Chapin was born, out of an absolutely respectable ancestry, in Hartford, Connecticut, February 6th, 1817. His parents were Laertes and Laura Colton Chapin 3 the father, in industry, a carpenter, in official service, an active member, as he was the son and grandson of deacons, all of them held in honor everywhere, in the old North Church of Hartford. Reared thus, a modest and gentle boy, in an intelligent Christian home, entering, after prepar- atory study in the Hartford Grammar School-our well remembered fellow- citizen, Theodore L. lVright, Esq., having been for a time his teacher there-Yale College, he graduated from that institution in due course, of goodhrank among distinguished classmates also of national reputation, in 1837. The immediately following years were occupied in teaching, one year in Baltimore, Maryland, in a private school, and several thereafter in a school for deaf mutes in the City of New York. He was thoroughly instructed for the Christian ministry in Union Theo- logical Seminary, and became the pastor of the First Presbyterian Church in Mil- waukee, Wisconsin, in 1844. It was in that remarkable period when the divinely inwrought impulse, fabled for all time in the story of the wandering Io, was in one ofits most productive stages, and was carrying out of the western East the sons and daughters of Pilgrim New England into favored regions, where the heart of the nation was to beat out its mighty achievement of mature national life until, touching with its circulation the ancient East across the Pacific sea, East and West would at length become one in the unity ofa com- mon Christian civilization. His pastorate here continued six years, conserva- 20 tive of the principles in which he had been bred, strenuous as would be expected, after thoroughly evangelical methods and prOdL1CtiVCHCSS, 1'G1atCd in important service not only to his own immediate people, but to the wider field of the infant church of the state. Surviving members of his parish in Milwau- kee cherish the respectful friendship formed with him in those years of his first and only pastorate. ' .Already,i1'1 pursuance of counsels in which he had eminent share, the College at Beloit had been founded while his ministry in Milwaukee was in progress. To Rev. Stephen Peet, if any one can be mentioned as the cause of a movement which is, beyond all doubt, out of a wide procedure of Divine Provi- idence, morethan to any one else, the institution owes its beginning. It is only another of the instances where a vital soul, of commanding energy, takes up, out of whatever avenue of divine communication, an impelling intimation from Heaven, and into the strong current of his aggressive purpose draws persons and circumstances as tributary forces, to the result that what was a problem in the Heavens has become a beautiful reality on earth, and, lo, the tabernacle of God is with men. But Dr. Chapin was intimately associated in sympathy and co-operation with Mr. Peet. It is pleasant to think of the young, brave pastor, with hopes instructed by the splendid traditions in which he had been reared and educated, going to and fro among 'his people and else- where, and working, in the partnership of such older men as Peet and Kent and Clary, for the new institution which, as they foresaw, was to do for the new regions what the older colleges had done for New England, Pennsylvania, Virginia and New York. His name continually appears upon committees in the records of the conventions which planned and started the College, and in 18 50 he was called to its presidency, entering thus, at the age of thirty-three and in the prime of his young manhood, upon what was to be his remarkable life-work of nearly forty years. , It will be remembered that the institution into whose life the life of Dr. Chapin was thus organized as its leader, neither was exotic to the soil in which it was planted nor was without a root reaching down into the fertile soil of a great purpose of the Christian church of the eastern portion of the nation in behalf of education. Beloit and its neighboring region was full of the best of New England men and women. Especially, as early as in the May of 1843, at a meeting in the Bible House in New York, convened on the suggestion of the presidents of three Western colleges, Marietta, Wabash, jacksonville, and of Lane Seminary, the question had been favorably considered of organizing an associa- will l 1 Of gil win deli' PM i. filth f M. nfgll. v IM ' 'lihfi . l.

In June of the same year the organization was completed, and on the twenty-fifth of the following September was held its iirst annual meeting. The whole was the result of well-considered delegations from conventions in Philadelphia, New York and Boston, and es- pecially the churches of New England and New York were behind the movement. Men of vast conceptions and splendid history, Lyman Beecher, Samuel Hanson Cox, Leonard Bacon, Absalom Peters, and Theron Baldwin W ere its fathers. And now, in early June of 16844, in preparation for the second annual meeting of the society in the September following, at a meeting in Cleveland, Ohio, Theron Baldwin, first secretary of the Western College Society, was in confer- ence with men called thither for thepurpose, to communicate with them about Christian colleges in the VVest.and the carrying out of the plan, on the border of the new region. Dr. Chapinwas there, on that mount of observation, with Peet, Gaston, Hicks, Bulkley, Miter andiothers, on his way, under appointment of the Home Missionary Society, to his pas-torate 5 and, when the meeting was over, he was companion of the fervid Baldwin and the rest, in the steamer Chesapeake, where the idea of the College was definitely conceived, in the journey westward. The conviction and impulse of Beloit College was thus deeply and deliberately generated in the minds of its founders, and especially when Dr. Chapin as- sumed its presidency there was a spiritual momentum in its young life which explains the years of maturity that have followed. P The College, as it is to-day, is in no small measure the result of its wise ad- ministration under that presidency. It was fortunate in the company of re- markable men who, in pursuance of the movement just mentioned, as trustees, determined, with strong will and clear intelligence, in connection with Dr. Chapin, the principles on which it should be administered, and for many years held it, with him, true to its beginning, standing around the first President and sustaining him with counsels, with the weight of their great influence and with abundant labors. The character of the men and Women of the region, out of the best heart and brain of the older regions, was an enviable environment for an institution which had thorough Christian education on its banner. What school could be in more favorable geographical home than this was, amid the genial landscapes of Southern Wisconsin? There have been men in the instructional depart- ments of the College who have abundantly shared the burden by contributions of highest scholarship and rare qualities in teaching, men, also, who, by genial adaptiveness of head and heart, have mediated between the administration of the College and at the same time the constituency at large and the young men 22 who have resorted hither, men, moreover, who, by their financial genius and sacrifice of ease, have lightened in no small degree the burden of its pecuniary resources, Along the lines of individual friendship, running from many bene- factors here and there to members of the board of instruction, have flowed into the treasury numerous currents of material advantage. But, in the midst of all, the calm intelligence, which has held all the contributions of word and deed in the unity of a salutary plan, and the even movement of heart which has, according to its strong and settled policy, co-ordinated all individual' contribution of help into the consistency ofa steady growth up to prevalence in the estimates of men and into power for good, have been the intelligence and heart of our revered friendvand father. Amid the often, in that period, irritated insistence of denominational rancor, when also the fortunes of moneyed men were slender and few, and the gatherings of contributions had to be many and small, reached only by the closest search and from the hand of poverty 5 amid institutions of inferior quality competing for prestige amongst a frontier population, wrestling with the inertia of mind which can be broken, at the best, only by the most strenuous and patient wrestling of spiritual power, all these circumstances confronted our leader in the life of the College. Dr. Chapin is its historic protagonist. No wonder that the bearing of the burden for so long a time ended as it did. Men do not come out of the solitudes of such re- sponsibility with the undimmed eye and the springing step of the morning of their toil. ' It is not within our limits to speak of the detail of service which con- stituted these years of the presidency. He taught much, almost constantly, and in early years had well nigh his equal share of instruction and in many different branches. Heywas author, earlier, of a recasting of Pres. XVayland's work on,Political Economy, and later, of an original work in the same depart- ment of science. He had his regular Sabbath ministry in the College Chapel, leader always of the daily College devotions when in town, holding in his hands always the main minutiae of executive affairs, keeping open and clear the channels of economic and disciplinary provision for free way for those divine forces of life, which, in the midst of souls, teachers and pupils, are the College. - In addition to this, which was the chief work of Dr. Chapin, many bur- dens were laid upon him in the service of other interests of public importance. Preaching with great acceptance in all the churches tar and near, and often statedly supplying those at home, director of the Home Missionary Society, 23 and corporate member of the American Board of Missions for many years, one -of the founders and from the beginning a most important trustee of Rockford Seminary, oflicer also or active member of various important eleemosynary and scientific associations within the state and elsewhere, special delegate from the American Board to the Armenian missionary churches in Turkey, called to be examiner and visitor in national military institutions, prominent always in the ecclesiastical gatherings, state and national, of theaAmerican churches, he was of eminent use in these various responsibilities. Quick of discernment, wise and -conciliatory in deliberation, vigorous and thoroughgoing in executive perform- ance, kindly, of even balance, dignified, alert, he was at the same time in the ranks of service and a recognized leader of men. The degree of Doctor of Divinity was conferred upon him by Williams College in 1853, and that of Doctor of Laws by the University of New York in 1882. . He was married to Miss Martha Colton, of Lenox, Massachusetts, Aug. 23, 1843. After her death, in 1859, he married as his second wife Miss Fanny L. Coit, of New London, Connecticut, August 26, 1861. He was father of eight children, one of them, Elizabeth C., now the wife of Rev. Henry Porter, M. D., is at present, and now for many years, a missionary of the American Board in Pang Chuang, China. The other remaining children, with their mother, have the joy of having contributed to their father's later years the grace of a happy and honorable home. His son, Robert C. Chapin, is his father's successor in Political Economy in the College. H A At the Commencement in 1886, Dr. Chapin resigned his oflice as President of the College, retaining the relation of Professor in Civil Polity. Soon, how- ever, the results of his long service of the College were manifest in physical prostration 5 and, though herlingered in iniirmity for several years, it was soon apparent that the term of his life on earth was drawing to a close. After a beautiful sojourn among us, amid the endearments of his home and the monu- ments of his long career, beloved and honored by all, retaining ever a beauti- ful interest in the growing prosperity of the College under another and con- genial leader, in vital touch of heart with all good concerns, he quietly passed to the resurrection of the life beyond. ,Tis ever thus the good and just Close their dim eyes on life and pain 5 But God shall guard their sleeping dust Till the pure spirit comes again. The traditions of such lives, perpetuating ever the tradition of the One Supreme Life on earth, are the sign by which we conquer. J. I. BLAISDELL. E ve 'f 24 wm. llborter, BD. ED. PROFESSOR OF LATIN, AND SECRETARY. We have still with us a few persons whose lives have been a lengthwise' section through almost the whole life ofthe College. Of these, Professor Porter' is one. He seems to have been providentially prepared for it, and it for him. The oldest son of Hon. William and Mary A. fQuincyj Porter, he was born at the family home in Lee, Massachusetts, january roth, 1820. His.. father was a graduate and for many years a trustee of Williams College, and a. distinguished member, of the Berkshire bar. The son was fitted for college at Hopkins Academy in 'Hadley and at the Academy in Lenox, and entered Williams College in 1835. He was one of the first five in his class, it is a. significant fact that at the junior Exhibition he gave the Latin oration. He' graduated in 1839, and took the degree of A. M. in course. Like Professor Blaisdell, he had at this stage of his education the advantage- of some study of the law 5 it was in his father's office, from .1839 to 1840. He then took the regular theological course, one year at Andover and two at. Union Seminary in the City of New York. As the young clergyman thus stood at the door of active life, none could. have prophesied for him the long career of usefulness that lay before him and especially the steadiness of health by which through forty-one years, the envy of his colleagues, he has been at his post in Beloit College with hardly a break for ill-health 5 it is noteworthy in this connection that, although he is seventy- three years old and many younger members of the Faculty wear spectacles, his. eye has never dimmed. tHe had expected to be one of the famous Iowa Band, but his health had become very seriously undermined, and a residence in Florida was determined upon as a desperate resort. Strangely enough, in the carrying-out of the plan, death came even closer yet: his ship, a sailing vessel, starting for jacksonville and getting within sight of the St. john's River, was blown to the north of the Bahamas and there was overhauled by a pirate, who lowered a boat and started it for the helpless ship. ' The usual course of things under such circumstances was the plundering and scuttlin g of the ship, the Sl11P'S company being left on board to go to that bourn from which no traveler returns to bear witness in a court of justice. For some reason never' M2116 QW M Wm fl .L mn---A W: V -WL-.-.,., , 'T . h F 19 5 a I 'i s 5 it i ' 1 i E Q i I v V P il i gl N F a 11 M X 5 L Vg .1 pli- i I, 1, X I Ain I' s Y ,L iE lf gl 2? Vx iv 25 guessed, the pirate suddenly signaled back his boat and made off. Professor Porter recalls gratefully that amid the universal terror on the ship he, almost alone, was able to have the calm of faith. His life in the South extended from 1843 to 1850, the first five years being spent largely in the saddle along the St. -Iohn's River but with some teaching in the family at the plantation on which he lived, and the other two years in teaching in a family in Savannah. During this time he preached a great deal to the coloredpeople, a fact finding its natural consequence in his almost pastoral relation to the people of that race in Beloit. - In ISSO he went to Marietta, Ghio, in Marietta College, he taught mathematics for two years in the place of Professor, later President, Andrews, who was much absent in the work of collecting funds. In 1852 he visited his uncle, Rev. Jeremiah Porter, in Green Bay. Returning thence, he came by way of Beloit, to see if Rev. Dexter Clary, then District-Secretary for the American Home Missionary Society, had some home-missionary church that would not be beyond his strengthq It happened to be about a week before the beginning of the college year, the College being then only five years old and having graduated only two classes, a total of four' men: all the rest of the Alumni, and hundreds who have not completed the course, have been under -his -instruction and care. Professor Bushnell came in at Mr. Clary's that Saturday morning, said that he had to go away to look after some college land, and asked Mr. Porter to take his classes for five or six weeks. Professor Bushnell had many such cares with the treasurership. After his return Mr. Porter kept on, the right man in the right place, and the College has never been able to spare him since. He really taught all sorts of branches till long after his appointment to the chair of Latin, he and Professor Emerson having generally five or even six recitations a day. From 1852 to 1856 he was Professor of Mathematics 5 then the chair of Latin was established for him, and he settled to his permanent work. In Sep- tember, 1855, he relieved Professor Emerson of the duties of the Secretary- ship of the Faculty 5 he has held that office ever since. As a class-officer he has been almost uniformly the one to begin the discipline of the students in the Freshman year. ' In 1853 there came to Beloit Miss Ellen G. Chapin, sister of President. Chapin, to teach in the Seminary for girls, to her Prof. Porter was married. in july, 1854. They have three children living. He spent the year 1873-4. in European travel. He was made Va Doctor of Divinity by his Alma Mater in 26 . 1882. Through his whole Beloit life he has been a teacher or superintendent in the Sunday-school of the First Congregational Church, through most of it he has been a member ofthe prudential committee of that church, so that, more than any other one person, he has borne to it the relation of assistant pastor. Professor Porter, above almost all other men, would be unwilling that a sketch of himself should contain any direct words of praise. He has always chosen the inconspicuous path, from the secret kindnesses shown to multitudes of students through two-fifths of a century to the roll of the old students upon which he has been silently spending the leisure of his ripest years. He has not shown even to his most intimate friends the great package of letters that came to him from his old pupils in honor of the completion of his fortieth year of service. The movement to put in the College library his bust in marble was not undertaken with the thought that the sight of the bust would be particu- larly pleasing to him, but perhaps rather in a whimsical disposition to turn back upon him the authority so long exercised by him in the class-room, to ff call him up in spite of himself, and to refuse him the leave to answer, Q Not prepared.

JBIa1sbeII 5 Stubig I happened last week into the study ofa professor in one of our colleges, where for nearly forty years he has done his work and gathered about him the .necessary materials for it. And it was a treat. Such a composite room! Things of 1840, 1860, 1890, all together, and many things of long previous times. There were plaster casts of old Greeks, engravings of martyrs, theo- logians and public men of all centuries and memories, books in all bindings, 'from vellum to cloth, and of several languages, especially of the ancients. Here touched the most diverse metaphysics, theologies, ethics, and tempera- ments. It was the study of one man, but not the library ofone idea. 'All -conceivable spaces were made to carry pictures, books, relics and wrecks of 'the past. It would have been a museum if it had not beenagwork-shop, for a museum is a work-shop which has survived the workers. But this worker re- 'mainedi The pen was by the ink andthe slippers by the stove. Marks of yesterday's work were there and the magazines for January, 1893, among old papers of other eras. As I poked around, full of delighted enthusiasm, the .artisan among those books and memorials entered. How well he fitted the place. They were mates. Said he, Would you like to see a historic book P 'Of course, I had been seeing them all around, historic to me. But this one I had not. It was small and inconspicuous. But he pointed out how, on the blank-leaf in front, Thomas Erskine had written, in a beautiful- hand, a note of compliment and presentation of it to Geo. Washington, then the Presi- fdent of the United States, and had called his attention to arefe-rence to him in one of its pages. Turning to the page, there was the deep thumb-nail mark of some one, presumably of the Father of his Country. It was a. book. one would like to-borrow. I said, HI-Iow did you come by this? Well,,' said he, I had a friend in the army in the sixties, and he was stationed at one time at Fairfax Court I-Iouse, where he got into the library where this was, .and-he sent it to me. No wonder this teacher lives a fresh, wide life. Such surroundings betoken it. No small man could make such a room, and the room itself is a creator of greatness. I feel larger for having spent only a 'few hours in it. Sure, a man's study is in some respects a photograph of him- self. DR. WILLARD Scorr, IN The Afizfafzre. 30 1benrp HD. whitney, PROFESSOR or RHETORIC AND ENGLISH LITERATURE. The biography of every really successful man is the history of a battle. It is the recounting of forces gathering to make or to destroy him. This is singularly true in the heroic age of Beloit College, when no coward or time- server could serve her purposes. Her patron saints have been, and always shall be, warriors who could look into the cannon's mouth of circumstances and never bend the knee nor turn back. God in his providence has built Beloit's real college out of such material. The heroes of her early struggle- the'Old Guard, as they have fittingly been called-showed their wisdom and foresight in calling to their assistance a man equally brave and talented, Prof. Henry M. Whitney. His whole life had been a preparation for the work which he has so thoroughly done through- out the twenty-two years he has been connected with Beloit College. Born in the beautiful old town of Northampton, Mass., january, 1843, he had opportunity to drink in the spirit of the New Englanders and to be in- spired with their idea of what it meant to live and labor for others. He pre- pared for college at Williston Seminary, Easthampton, Mass., and entered Yale at the age of sixteen. Here he remained until his senior year, when at the call of his country he left the college halls and all that was dear to him to shoulder his inusket and march to the front as a private in the 52d Massachu- setts Infantry. He was soon promoted to the office of Sergeant-Major, and passed through the Louisiana campaign which culminated in the capture of Port Hudson in july, 1863. This period is memorable for its exceeding toil, privation, and suffering. Owing to his shattered health, he was obliged to refuse a commission in another regiment, and at the expiration of his term Of service he returned to Yale to complete his college course, graduating in the class of '64. The young Collegian found his way to lVashington after his graduation, and there, until the close of the war, May, 1865, he gave himself to the sick and wounded and at the same time acted as cashier of the U. S. Christian Commission for all the armies operating against Richmond. PROFESSOR H. M. WHITNEY IKWU' elf? ' fra? ' A l'. of 'f' ,mfr un.- sufiff' 1 fm as M- ao 24? ' QUT. in L' 3' 5 .

At the close of the war he found himself much fatigued by the unaccus- tomed hardship and toil it had brought him. Expecting never to have an easy time in this world of activity, he turned his face toward Princeton Theo- logical Seminary to take up study for the gospel ministry. After a profitable year at Princeton, he spent two years at Andover, and graduated in the class of '68, Immediately after the completion of his seminary studies he was called to the pastorate of the Congregational Church at Geneva, Ill. From a successful pastorate of three years, he was called to Beloit College, April, 1871, as Professor of Rhetoric and English Literature, a professorship which he has so admirably filled for twenty-two years. ' During the first part o-f Prof. Whitney's connection with Beloit Cola lege, he was the stated supply for several vacant churches in addition to his college work. During a period of eight months, 1871-2, he supplied the pul- pit of the First Presbyterian Church of Beloit. For nearly six years he served the Roscoe CIll.j church in like manner, and in innumerable other instances has he been called upon by the churches to give of his strength and time to the building up of the Master's kingdom. Thus has his life been one of incessant activity in educational and religious lines of work. He was one of the found- ers of the Monona Lake Assembly, and has been called several times to lec- ture there. He was also the founder of the Young People's Society, which be- came the first Christian Endeavor Society in the State of Wisconsiny As a citizen of Beloit, Prof. Whitney has never failed to be active in all that has tended to make Beloit H no mean city. His heart, voice, and hand have always been with every new interest which aimed to advance the interests of his fellow-citizens. -He served as alderman in the city government for a period of seven years, 1876-1883, and with all the duties of his college department he has never failed to perform his duty as a citizen. In 1881 he assisted in founding the Beloit Savings Bank, which has had such a successful and helpful history ever since. A During this same year he was made an honorary member of the British Association for the Advancement of Science. Prof. Whitney, perhaps more than any other Beloit College professor, has been a frequent contributor to the public press. His articles have appeared in the New Efzglczmier, the C01zg1'cgafz'01zaZz's!, the Aziwzfzfe, the New York Ylfibwze, the Springfield Repub- Zzrmz, and other influential papers. His series of war-papers has been especially interesting to the general public, and is no-table for its intense vividness. 34 In 1883 Prof. Whitney was appointed editorial contributor to the Century Dictionary, and became the author of the Dictionary of Synonyms and Sy- nonyms Discriminated embodied therein. This is the most elaborate work of its kind that has ever appeared and is a masterpiece in its department. During Prof. Whitney's connection with Beloit College he has had Beloit's honor closest to his heart. What he has been to Beloit' as an instructor in his department is best read in the results of his work shown in the oratorical con- tests Beloit has .held with other institutions throughout the state, in the inter- state contests where Beloit has either carried off the palm or won distinc- tion, and in the success of his students who have taken up journalism for their life-work. There is no better commentary on one's ability to instruct men in his de- partment than that which the world gives in the competition of one's students with those taught in the same department in other colleges. Judging the work of Prof. Whitney from this standpoint, he stands pre-eminent in the West. Perhaps there is a secret in his success which few have realized or noticed. It is discovered in his method of appreciating every honest effort of the student in preparing an oration. Never has the student of Beloit College suffered un- kind or scathing criticism at his hands. It has always been given with the utmost of Christian courtesy, mingled with a yearning to aid the student, which the student cannot but honor, saying in his inmost soul: I love that man, Y Such is but a brief glance at the man whom every student looks back to, saying to himself: ff How I wish I had spent more time in his study, tak- ing in the points which he was so willing to give. Prof. Whitney has always taken a deep interest in the physical culture of the students as well as their intellectual improvement. It was by his earnest- ness and push that the present gymnasium became a reality. In many ways he has been the means of bringing financial aid to the College, especially in the hundreds of volumes which have found their way into the College library through his special solicitation. . Though it was not given to him to be one of the founders of Beloit Col- lege, he has in many important ways been one of its most efficient builders. And in length of service he is the connecting link between the original mem- bers of the Faculty and those who have in recent years been added to its number. I.. E.

The term Qld Guard, has become famous in history. It is a name mag- netic with human sympathies. It is monumental to heroic deeds, ' In a broader sense, every institution has its Old Guard-its earliest found- ers and promulgators. Naturally the influence which an institution exerts will derive its character from the purpose and character of its propagatorsg, and also in direct proportion as the idea has been vitalized with the personality of the propagandist will its influence reflect his character, be the latter good or bad. The appellation, the H Old Guardj' in reference to the founders of Beloit College has an especial interest. lt is composed of men, the most of whom are still living and active, Whose influence is still fresh in their impressions upon society. The principles for which each lived, and which each exemplified, may still be definitely ascertained in the fabric they all helped to rear. It is this which gives especial interest to our subject. Examine the foundations of elemental truth upon which the College is founded, and all the elements of New England Puritanism will be discovered. Look into the characters of the men who founded it, and there again will the same elements be seen. The men , 38 who originated the idea ofa college for this region, and developed it into the present material being of our Alma Mater, were all of New England birth, heirs to many generations of Puritan character. Men, whose natures, deeply imbued with the same ancestral instincts, were' rendered still more kindred by the aflinities of their training. It will be distinctly seen that an idea born of the associated minds and hearts of such a society of men as this, and matured by such kindred forces of character, must bear strongly the impression of the vitalizing principles espoused by its originators. So it is with Beloit College. The idea of its institution was the offspring of Puritanism, was fostered by Puritanism and hence its transmitted influences have been Puritan. What, then, is this influence? Look to its progenitors, its ever-living examples, the Old Guard of Beloit College. Among the many Puritan elements possessed by each individual, We select one which is predominant in strength until, in the entire array, we have a striking expression of Puritan belief. The whole made up of its parts. First, the general outpouring of the educational sentiment, intrinsic to all Puritan civilization, was, in this region, given current and direction by the active faith of Dr. Chapin and the hope of Rev. Stephen Peet. These two, Faith and Hope, are the first essential elements of high, moral progress, and the pulsing forces of every active purpose, which is to culminate in noble results. The idea of a college thus born and given definite nucleus, was re-enforced from the strong mind of Prof. Bushnell, whose fertility of resource gave the young life of the College many avenues of escape from events crushing in nature. Also it received from Prof. Emerson the element of vigorous decision, allowing of no discomfiture of purpose. The young life began to grow. Its growth was accelerated by the devotion of Prof. Porter. It assumed a charac- ter of enduring sturdiness from the Puritan philosophy of Prof. Blaisdell 5 of branching strength from that element of later Puritanism, liberality, as inani- fested by Prof. Whitney. - From this assembly of men has Beloit College taken its early life, and received its longest nurture. Supplemented as it has been by later additions of strength, it now towers strong and spreading, a deep source of true Christian culture, the results of the labors of the U Old Guard. 'Q 'w 1 -.,, 1 x 1 -... K , V 1 1 L , 1 1 TRUSTEE F. G. LOGAN 41 jfI'Hl1l2 C5. 109 2111 At the last annual meeting the Board of Trustees of the College elected to membership in their body Mr. Frank G. Logan, of Chicago, whose portrait we present herewith. Like so many of the strong city men of the day, Mr. Logan's early life was passed amid country surroundings. His birthplace was a farm in Cuba. County, New York, and his early advantages were few. He supplemented. his common-school education with a course in Ithaca Academy, and in 1870, at the age of nineteen, he came to Chicago, the year before the great fire. He found employment as a clerk in a dry goods store on W'est Madison Street, where he remained a year and a half, when he obtained a position in Field, Leiter 81 Co.'s retail store. Here he spent four years, and then entered the- employ of the grain-receiving firm of Couch, Johnson 81 Elwell. A year later he established the commission firm of F. G. Logan Sz Company. His- business career from that point has been one of unbroken success, and his. banking and commission house has connections said to be more extensive than those of any other Board of Trade firm in Chicago. Nearly every important. point in the Northwest, West and Southwest is on his private wire, and New' York, with an intermediate chain of offices, is included in his system. Every considerable item in this immense business passes directly under Mr. Logan's. eye, and his firm hand is always on the wheel, yet his face and bearing are singularly free from traces of the Wear and tear inseparable from such responsi- bilities in such a metropolis. In 1882 he married Miss Josie Hancock, young- est daughter of John L. Hancock, Esq., who was president of the Board of Trade during the war. Their beautiful home is on Prairie Avenue. They are members of Plymouth Church, in which Mr. Logan is one of Dr. Gunsaulus' right-hand men. Mr. Logan is a fine example of the young business man who has achieved splendid success by ability, alertness, thorough method and intense applica- tion, and who has done this without narrowing his life to the routine in which so many men lind themselves fatally cramped. To such a man business is not. a chief end, but a means toward the largest good of the commonwealth. The 42 -discipline of powers which has been attained in commercial life he enjoys put- ting to new tests in the intellectual and social world. He studies with zest the problems that concern the welfare of mankind, and is especially interested in whatever promotes the right development of the young life of the nation, Having been chosen by the Trustees of Beloit to share in their responsible 'work of building up the College, Mr. Logan has thrown himself into this new relation with just that keen-sighted ardor which has characterized all his activ- ities hitherto, and he will no doubt be a potent factor for good in the future of :the College. Not content with giving to us his magnificent archaeological collection, which has been one of the special features of the Columbian Expo- sition in its Ethnological department, he has devoted a great deal of time and thought to securing for us gifts from other exhibits, and our museum will al- ways bear witness to this timely activity on his part. The College is to be congratulated upon the accession of such a man to the ranks of its noble friends and intimate counselors. He will help to keep 'us all in touch with the busy world, where the student will himself soon be 'thrown 3 he will stimulate us to do our best here and elsewhere and will 7 7 enter into the current ofthe College's life, to be, as so many others are, a vital .and vitalizing force. -Atal .. .,3+ 'Si' ii 'S' 43 TI n fllbemotiam ll5t65iO611t El.

To stranger or student we would say that it is no vain tale, but the truth, that will be told you here. . . 1 , ' Behold the ever-changing features of History ! As the sun, striking away the mists of a morning cloud, bursts forth into the radiance of a cloudless heaven, so in the fall of '91, the veil of dark regret for her errant sons parted from the face of our dear mother, when tinally, she first received, 'fNihil nisi Optimum, and took to her arms the class of '95. Excellence in itself is not a virtue, but the laws leading up to it are virtuous. Greatly will it profit giddy- Freshmen or wild Sophomores to study in these annals the principles, whereby they may learn not to lag so far behind the Gptimumf' For, my sons, true royalty is not born, but bred. This is the way events have translated our motto. In our Freshman year our members counted thirty-two, the most of whom had drawn upon the virtues of Scoville Hall, and she proved a sumptuous mother. 56 ln College, we have continued to receive the freshest impulses from the purest truth. 'The new Chapel bestowed upon us, as Freshmen, her primal influence. As Sophomores, we drew the first inspired thought from the newly founded Science Hall. From these virginal influences the class derived that spirit of strong orig- inality which so materially characterizes it. Who else could have originated so efficacious a schemeif for the wholesale renovation of the Freshman as a good hose with plenty of pressure? Augean Hercules might well have become jealous at this our Sophomore prowess. Originality is but one of our established vir- tues. The emblems of strong physical being, the profound depths of the sea, the Parthenon, brilliant in the rays of the setting sun, as pictured in our class cut, are fittingly symbolical of the physical, intellectual and spiritual vigor of '95. Our contact with our fellows has been marked by especial kindness and toleration towards the under class men, while we have exacted that deference from the Faculty which is always due to innate dignity of character. The course of our life has been toopowerful in its current to be greatly disturbed by the so-called events happening extraneous to the class. How- ever, there are some of our own class experiences, which may serve, in particu- lar, to emphasize the great didactic truths that have given occasion for our existence. T Lest plebeian stupidity might not distinguish and respect our early symp- toms of scholarly genius, we took the precaution to select for our class canes that quality of toughness which usually characterizes the hickory, and of such good thickness as was commensurate with the wit of our imprudent enemies. The canes still walk with us. Like the heavy fragrance of the Mjasmine flower' will the memory ot our Freshman banquet cling to the minds of its participants. You, O unfortunate, whom fate did not elect to come with us, will never know delight. Youth, beauty, health and strength presided at our board. Our fare proved Nature to be our caterer. Kindly hearts the flowers had bestowed, which as kindly still, shed fragrance through the air. It is thought that even time would fain have kept the minutes back, so rich the joy, so deep the cup from which we quaffedf But time rolled on and history must keep its pace. VVe followed the fruit- outine of the days, until they brought us to june, when we broke ranks for it See Sophomore History. E ful r -fn O I l vacation. The' following autumn twenty-four of our original number re-as- sembled as Sophomores. - i To thee, O Time, and thy remorseless, whirling flight, i Some, to careless thought and purpose given, Scornful of thy proffered hours, had rendered up the fight, I And losing hold, were overridden, - While others, amid the labyrinthine ways of life, Had erred aside, elsewhere to hold the ever mortal strife. Though we had lost in numbers, We had grown in courage. Our resistance to the malicious attempts at obstructing our pathway to fame and usefulness, by forbidding the Archaean debates being held Within popular reach, led to our establishing the Sophomore public debate held exclusively by the members of the class. I Like Solomon, we loved the Hdivine and pastoral dramaf' For full and illustrated accounts of our rendition of the Greek play, The Alcesiis, of Euripi- des, you are referred elsewhere in these pages and to any of the magazines of the literary N orthwest. Our leading tragedian was soon after called to adorn the metropolitan stage of Chicago, Though naturally modest, so much is genius sought after, that we were compelled to accept an invitation to the Seminary reception at Rockford, where for a time we relieved the tired chaperons of f their arduous duties. We there proved ourselves graceful actors in the 'fCourt of Love. I 1 In the latter part of the winter term We decided by an unanimous vote I to publish the CODEX, Vol. III. We established the CODEX Publishing Coqof '95. Our Work has progressed throughout in that beautiful harmony, the natu- ral offspring of a great and determined purpose. Thus far our course in athletics has been one of excellent theory. Gwing to unfavorable circumstances, however, our practice has not as yet proven its correctness. ' In the latter part of our Sophomore life we were confronted by the great question of the day, the Social Prablem. We determined to hold a class socia- ble. The first of the series which we afterwards successfully conducted was held at the Sigma Chi house. Programme: I. Intellectual phenomena and feats in compound mesmerism. II. Physical Reactions. QThese were very good, especially the Olym- pian sport, which in less moral circles has been degraded mto the vulgar prize f1ght.j III. An Exhibition in Gastronomics. QThis was also good I The second and last of our serial discussions of the socialproblem, was in the form of a reception held at the residence of our respected classmate, Randall.. With our usual original penetration, discerning the needs of the College, We afforded a practical demonstration of the advantages of co-educa- tion. Our ideas concerning the working methods of this system were so favorably received that the Faculty meeting had for its especial topic this press- ing question. We have now entered upon our junior vear. As future events of our his- tory are but just coagulating, We must here cut short our chronicle. T he narrative portion of our history is not, in the nature of things, the most momentous. It is but the lighter fringing of those silent forces which are so actively at work upon the germinal essence of fast developing mind. , HISTORIAN. i , X , x I WW il 0 1 In ,I X ' ll , , ' I 'i l-Ill ' I WG J ,, f .,, II' I 'II I I I , B I ., M l , s '1'e,Q '1QT.'

The love of praise? howe'er concealed by art, P Reigns, more or less, and glows in every heart. - Ninety-six was a long way off when a few members of the present class saw each other for the first time, as young, smooth-faced Preps, dreaming of what was to be. Greatness was before them, and they plodded toward it only by the usual road of failures, becoming less and less. In base-ball they were beaten at every game, for the other classes had the pitcher, and they no good men to pick from. Yet they went on through defeat and trouble and became so strong that they were of great service in giving a few of the Senior Preps a charming carriage-ride in the country, and making them think of the path of glory as leading but to the banquet. This little success put them on their feet and bound them close together, but, alas-it was in two bundles. Dip. or not to Dip was the momentous question, and the conscience of each one, aided by the pleading andweeping of Qhisj 'fPapa, settled it for him. Sept. 6, 1892, the Chapel bell called us together for the first time as the -class of '96, whose exploits and-deeds of valorwill be handed down from gen- eration to generation. We were twenty-seven all told-green, to be sure, but even then intelligent. , How well we all remember the first Math. recitation when the Prof. took the names for the first time. Any more fs P Some one he-hawed, much to the disgust of the learned gentleman, who stated that time would count them better than he, but it has failed todo so. i i i One very foggy night, the Freshmen, singly, or in the manner in which Noah filled the ark, went down the back streets, and finally came together at Vale's to pacify the inner man after the month of hard work together, and solemn vows which matriculation had set before all. Much to the horror of every one, two Sophs were found within, ready for war. What were we to do Pi Time told, and we marched home like a cohort of old Caesar, instead of in the former method, alert for hidden foes. The truth of the quotation is evident. -fTwer1ty-seven against two, what voulcl we do ? 5. 9 68 Sad to relate, the Sophies gathered, and from ambush turned a stream of water on the party. Cries of We're in a fix, we're in a fix, welre the classof 796i filled the air. Eternal vengeance was sworn against the Sophsft who were afraid to encounter so valiant a company, and Who soon repented of trying to dampen the ardor of '96. Say, G-ie, Hercules, what about those pants, and marked underclothes, called for but not delivered, from the first dummy which never saw the light of day, thanks to ,95,S sleepiness lp About this time a challenge was posted on the bulletin board, from '9 5 for a foot-ball game. The boys had been practicing for some time, and gladly ac- cepted, as it presented a chance to show 795 that they could not Wipe the earth with '96, as they had boasted. The day was glorious, raising the spirits of each enormously-'95's to a red heat, for all were loyal toitheir color. They were confident of victory. Everybody enjoyed the best game of the season, and thought more of the boys than before. Did they wipe the earthpwith '96?l lVell ! I guess not. Thankful for the last tive seconds they won, but they fought harder for it than anything before or since that day. . VV e had to get even and so a 4' beautiful form of articles contributed by members of the class was prepared to adorn P. H. It was hung up and watched all night by zealous men. The first rays of the sun flooked upon the words, We won't play, ,95,H and shone more bright than usual. 795 was mad, real mad, but were not as brave as their ancestors in tearing down an effigy. Ladders came from without, within C95 paid for the broken windowsj,Q but it' didn't fall until U 'Rast appeared and in rage denounced such sacrilege and desecration of holy things. The Prof. moved toward the steps, W'--d after him. The latter sprung upon the image and tore it down, while the lookers-on made a rush for souvenirs. Poor boys! How many bear the bruises of trying to get pieces ofgilags and dummies, even old hats. Hey,--Atkie ! if A 5.

Some wise person instituted a series of class base-ball games between College classes and those of Prep. '96 won the first game she played-knocked out Seniors, juniors, Sophies fHa!

Our victory would not have been so complete had it not been for the mascot, the class Dude, whose peculiarly arranged H Coma always inspired the class to do their best. Examinations in asymptotes of hyperbolic curves of H comfortable prob- lems and the wonderful mixture of parts of formulfe from over yon side were always a trial to us. Still Tommy's beaming face after the 4-hour Ex., which all lived through and passed in, announced that '96 as a whole could give due honor to Miss Anna Lytics and pour forth a three-fold libation at the sacred rites of burial. The libation was kerosene three times poured out while a brilliant nre lighted up the prostrate forms of her late admirers do- ing their last homage to the rapidly vaporizing form, H Tommy had a sere- nade, and joyous bells proclaimed the Freshman year complete. After a pleasant summer vacation, we came back all bristling with 4' Sopho- more superciliousnessj' to domineer over Freshmen, provide toilet articles for puddlers and do the deeds which will fill the pages of our future histories with stories of H Hatched Orphans and other tales.

With modesty befitting Freshmen, we intend to make our history short. Not, however, for the reason that we could not make a long account of the many battles we have fought, and of the many victories we have won, but because we have just emerged from the obscurity of Prepdom, and our deeds in the future will speak our praises far better than those which were accomplished while we writhed under the sway of our much-abused and yet deeply respected Papa'l Burr. c When juniors in the Academy, the night of the Senior 4' Prep ban- quet found us on deck to do or die in the attempts to keep some of the members of that class from enjoying their repast. We were in thethick of the melee at 'the Grand Hotel, and several of our members proudly tell of the blows they received from Charlie North's heavy cane. The iirst beginnings of the spirit which has been a characterizing feature of our class were born that night, and we longed for the time to come when we should have a banquet and when we might 'fpaint the town redl' and arouse its sleeping streets with our class yell. In the middle year things went all our way in the Academy. The Seniors, who are the honorable Sophomores of to-day, were an exceedingly slow croivd-'z0e1'e,- yes, and, inasmuch as, after a thorough examination of all the minute particles which make up that class, we can find nothing to the con- trary, we are pained to say, are slow and even lifeless now. We beat them in junta elections and they played the 'fspoiled babyl' act and went off by them- selves in the attic of Scoville Hall and had a little meeting with 'tGrand Arch- ons and' Worthy Slavesw and high muck-a-mucks of all kinds for their officers. They attached the penalty of decapitation to any member who was absent from any meeting without a good excuse. Nothing short of a bad case of quick consumption would be accepted. All this time, while they thought that they were spiting us, we were steering Junta through the most prosperous term of its existence, and all through the spirit and good manage- ment with which we went at it. That Senior class which set us so many poor 'Q 1 G9 examples, among other things, got sulky at graduating time and refused to have any graduating exercises after having issued all their invitations, which capped the climax of all their little-boy actions of the year. But even with such an unworthy predecessor as an example, we went through our Academy course with flying colors, and placed a standard in all things to which the coming generations of'fPreps l will do well to try to attain. The Senior year brought us rather hard luck in athletics, but that was be- cause we had solid work to do in other lines. That was the year when we did the work in the class-room that gladdened Prof. Burrls heart. Up to the spring term we did little else besides study and thereby gained a reputation for scholarship that will be ours through all our course. But when warm weather came we showed the Academy which class was the boss. We first had the originality about us to get a class button in lieu of that antiquity, the class.cap. Then we showed the Middlers, with little or no trouble or inconvenience to ourselves, that we could keep our flag longest on top of Middle College. What class has there ever been who could show up as much red paint as we did that term? To be sure we had some slight difficulty on account of our beautiful red signs which appeared all over the campus, but what mattered that when our name was thus made almost immortal by the spirited work of the class in the dead of that memorable night. Our graduation made the Seniors of the year before very much ashamed of themselves for their uncalled- for action, and Well it might, for it was one which any class would envy and was one of the great events of Commencement. And we had a banquet-the first one since thatin which we participated as junior Preps. The ambition of that night, two long years before, was attained that night when we awoke the professors at 3 A. M. with rousing cheers and our united shout of Four-four- four years more. That banquet has never been excelled by any class either in College or Academy. Yes, we have had hard luck in athletics heretofore, but the whole college stands before us ready to be beaten and we can almost see them now, bowing to us as the class champions. Our class puts more men on the regular teams than any two college classes, so why should we fear any one of them? As a Freshman class we have entered stronger in numbers than the average, and with our added strength in scholarship and athletics we are sure to make our mark both as a class and as individuals. It's our turn next at the CODEX, and then watch our smoke. HIS1'ORIAN. ,...-....a.,,...,- - ,T ...i.l.T.AZ.:.-. ,,,..,,-.Y.LVN N M -Q Y ig.

A' , ..pf:1',!'7f?f'1 ,..-,.,,, 4 IJ ' 4--f If f The Archaean Union, consisting of the members of the two literary socie- ties of the College, practically represents all of Beloit's students who are pro- gressive and ambitious for the broadest and best liberaleducation, who are giving themselves the inestimable advantages derived from literary work in forensic debate upon the iioors ofthe literary societies which compose the Union, in the great school of oratory which the Home contests, State con- test, and Inter-State oratorical contest affords and has afforded to nota few of Beloit's men, and also in the valuable experience furnished by the journal- istic work upon the 4' Rowan' Trzbfej' the magazine of the Union, which rep- resents the College. That man who can graduate from Beloit without having had his name upon the role of this society can hardly lay claim to the liberal education which Beloit affords. The present Archaean Union was a development from the old Arcliaean Society, which had its beginning October 18, 1848. The first officers of the society were among Beloit's nrst graduating class. Joseph Collie was the first president, S. D. Peet the first secretary. In December, 1849, a paper called the AVCAFEIZII I1fKZglZZflZ6' was intro- duced as a function of the monthly meeting and read before the society. This doubtless was the start of what later became the Balaji College M0fzfhQf, and whichf to-day we hail as the Beloit College HRUIUZIZI Zlzblef' The monthly magazine was first issued as a regular monthly publication in November, 1853, but at the commencement of the school year in 1875 it became a bi-weekly r '74 publication, and as such it still remains. With the single exception of the Yale Zlzferczfy jlfczgczzifze, the Rozmfz' Table is the oldest college paper in Amer- ica 5 it is the western pioneer of college journalism. It has maintained a high place in its sphere and its merits are universally recognized by all its contem- poraries, of both the East and the West. In 1859 the Archaean Society was divided into two Literary societies-the Alethean and Delian Societies ofthe present, and these together have formed the Archaean Union. The Union has a separate constitution, with oflicers elected at stated times, The constitution was entirely overhauled and revised within the .past year and now abundantly provides for properly carrying' out its various functions. The Archaean Union represents the College in the State Oratorical Asso- ciation. Only its members are eligible to participate in the Home Oratorical contest, and the scheme for'representation, as included in the recently revised constitution, is as follows: About a year preceding the Home contest in which they are to speak, eight members are chosen by the Union from the junior and Sophomore classes respectively. In the second week of the succeeding january these men ,take part in preliminary contests held in their respective classes. The judges of these preliminary contests, the Professor of Oratory, the Professor of Rhetoric, and one other person chosen by the Union to act with the other two, judge on thought and composition and delivery, and the eight highest contest again in a public Home contest that shall decide who shall represent Beloit in the State contest. ' Public debates are given once a term under the auspices of the Union, the contestants being two members of each literary society and chosen from the Sophomore class. The debates are most interesting and instructive and in- valuable to those who are honored as contestants. j .'I' he Archaean reading-room is what may be called the students' lobby, for here is the place, always pleasant, warmed, and carefully looked after by the special officers of the Union and apermanent Reading- Room Committee. It is a library no longer, but in it are found all the principal magazines and reviews published, the leading American daily and weekly papers and weekly or bi-weekly foreign papers, a most ektensive list of college exchange publica- tions, etc. Itis not a place for study, but for varying the mind and relieving it from the strain of the class-room. To keep up with these times of rapid progress one must be a frequenter of the Archzean reading-room. I r 75 IDI'6IimiI1HI'Q 1bome Glontest SENIORS A. E. Fraser, Fred Staff, F. G. Sanderson, M. O.

It was formed by the union of the Philagorean and the Adelphian Literary Societies, neither of which had enough activity to conduct a profitable meeting. - There have been several severe struggles in junta's halls since that time, on account of class' spirit, and in '86 and '89 opposing societies were formed, but both were short-lived, while junta still stands the pride of the Preps. The society is, this year, at its maximum, both in activity and membership. It stands united, without a sign ofthe factious spirit which has so long disturbed its meetings, the Academy has just cause to be proud of such a strong and intellectual rallying-place. i -my I 'X .x?r J 5 P I lllllo., N 5 .-. .. ,,-,.- .. . i 1-E- f'-,:.,gl 1 4 .a.::f,.f- ' I . v-':..'f .J ..-ar,-, - , if 'LL' 3, IhlI:--- --- 21. , .. ll!!!!!gr. j-jf ,.f5- ': .

Rosie, '96 Forty-four years ago the students of Beloit founded a Missionary Socie- ty , 'I in 1881 this society changed its form and became what is now known as the Beloit College Christain Association, conforming to the type found in most colleges to-day. The association has its home in two pleasant rooms in the beautiful College Chapel, and there are held its two weekly meetings for prayer and testimony. Here also are cultivated its two objects, to mature a Christain character, and win every student in College to Christ. In the fall the association meets new students at the trains, offers such aid as may be required , presents new men with a neat tthand-book, full of informa- tion about the College, etc., and on the first Friday evening invites the whole College to a reception in its Chapel rooms. This is in the spirit of welcome, thereafter the endeavor is to extend to all the influences of Christian living. Bible-classes are formed of as many as will unite in such work. In spring and fall the association sends out groups of two to aid in conducting Sabbath schools in neighboring districts, in winter larger groups visit small towns for short periods of Christain work. An Employment Bureau aids many students to work that helps replenish limited means. In Commencement week, Monday evening is the occasion of a general rally to hear an address in the Chapel on some vital Christain theme. At the close of the College year all the colleges of the West send men to a Bible school at Lake Geneva, and Beloit aims this year to send at least twelve. To many the name of the Christain Association is a hallowed one, and rightly so, for in the blessed atmosphere of its weekly gatherings, many a Beloit student has breathed in the spirit of a new and higher life. gx' 2 S X X MS 21 C IJ g x , fly ffm ffm 1 ,lf f Q WSQ9 CME Q55 Q X -- f ll Y X ' ,Jah I X f fxbx aim QQ HM? fy- R X N f 6 jf 'Q f-N ff 20 Lf 4, A fwxxx ffafyvf' j , Yf-2 'ANQQQ ,xl N fig ff! u 5 X W l Wa img if ff ff!

Chapin I-Iall, that noble gift of Dr. Pearsons, was chosen by him for his headquarters 5 he walked with the students, talked with them, and ate his meals with them. As he entered the church on graduation-day, Beloit's rousing cheers greeted Beloitls Benefactor, after several minutes of incessant applause, the Doctor was requested to address the audience, which he did in his own inimitable manner. The CODEX editors, having requested a copy of that speech from Dr. Pearsons, he replied, giving the substance of it in the following happy way: DEAR CODEX-I heard the word Beloit in 1836 for the first time. I was standing in my father's yard in Vermont one june day, and up came four covered wagons filled with people, and among them four beautiful girls, just blooming into womanhood. They attracted my attention and I began to ask questions, they were bound for Beloit, Wis. , and they were the first pilgrims toileave Vermont. I I, I ' I followed them in imagination over the Green Mount-ains, through the bogs of the Maumee swamps land the sand-dunes of Michigan, and the rich mud of Illinois to Beloit. A In 1851, in the month of May, my wife and I made a visit in the West. We came to Elgin on the cars, the end of the road, then took a-mud-wagon for Wisconsin-a hard ride. I-Ienry Sawyer was the driver of a tall, stout pair of black horses. As we approached Beloit we had grave doubts about crossing the river, as there was no bridge, but the noble horses took a look and a plunge and brought us through and up to a wooden tavern. On leaving the tavern for Janesville, a stout stranger was our companion, and as we drove through the campus, I asked the stranger what the buildings were for. Oh! he said, 'fsome Eastern cranks have established a col- lege here. ' I I If l l-ll. f-ig: is 1T'L Ol 517 1 MQ. - vl- IL xl' ljfiifw Gut 3- llrr A. llurg- Ol. 4 ' -i Dr. 1. 2 I wif., Vw, flew g X011 ' .F Thr . fl lrlx fi, ag Lxi ., i N, TQKW' -. .....--,.,.,,,,,,-,,,A:.xv-,vu p v--.fm I lil!! For fourteen miles he argued against academies and colleges. I did my best to defend them. He became very warm and finally as we parted l gave him a rubber. I said to him that in a few years I should come West to live ' 7 and should become very rich, and as soon as I had the money in hand I should build up the academies and colleges of the West. I had my eye on this very Beloit College at the time, and the first college I helped was Beloit. The echo of thatprophetic argument on that chilly night in May, 1851, struck you for Saoopoo as the first and best worthy object, and the echo has struck other poor and worthy colleges, and will continue to reach others as long as a kind Providence allows me to live. D. K. PiQARsoNs. CHICAGO, ILL. The following is the substance of President Eaton's pleasing address delivered during the same exercises: H I have just received from the graduating class a -request that I will speak of at this time before Dr. Pearsons is obliged to leave us to take his train. lt is a request that, in accordance with a custom which prevails at some other institutions, Dr. Pearsons may be regarded as an honorary member of the Class of '93, There seems a peculiar fitness in this suggestion, since the history of this class in the College has run parallel with the benefactions of Dr. Pearsons, which have caused such magnificent changes here within the past four years. It was as the Class of 793 were finishing their preparation for College that Dr. Pearsons electrified us with his splendid proposition of SIO0,000 additional to our invested funds. As the class entered College these conditions were real- ized, the class itself sharing inthe struggle by which the result was achieved. During their Freshman year the corner-stone was laid of Scoville Hall, the first of our new buildings, a part of the forward movement by which we secured Dr. Pearsons' gift. At the end of their Freshman year the building was dedi- cated. In their Sophomore year the corner-stone was laid of Chapin Hall, Dr. Pearsons' second great gift to the College, as well as the corner-stone of the new Chapel. The close of their Sophomore year was signalized by Dr. Pear- sonsl second visit to Beloit and his electrifying promise ofa science building. The opening of their junior year witnessed the dedication of Chapin Hall, and a few weeks after, the furrow was turned that broke ground for Pearsons Hall 134 of Science, the Class of '93, being among those who pulled the plow which was guided by our beloved President Chapin. In their Senior year this extensive building has been completed and they have had a taste of the advantages which are to be enjoyed in its laboratories by all classes that are to come after them. And, now, at their graduation, Dr. Pearsons makes his third visit to- Beloit to be present on their Commencement Day. I ami sure the Trustees and Faculty of the College sympathize with the class in their request and are glad to grant it. Does Dr. Pearsons accept membership in the class thus tendered him P Affer Dr. .P66Z7'S07ZS had rzeeejjfed Mis kefzofczry 7'EZ6lfZ'07ZShw fe Me Class of ,93 in ez brief and keczrzjf speech, Me Presidefzf added .' It is customary when men are enrolled in a class that some degree should be attached to their name. There was a time when the degree of A. B., which this class now receives, was the goal of Dr. Pearsons' youthful ambition and seemed to him the honor most to be coveted. He was thwarted in his pur- pose to attain this degree by adverse conditions, but, like other heroic men, he made this defeat the stepping-stone of larger victory. He is now far beyond the desire of such an academic honor. He has gone beyond this degree to one peculiarly his own. There are some honors thrust upon men which they can decline to accept, others are theirs inevitably as the fruitage of their life. Such has come to Dr. Pearsons, and I but indicate the degree which is univer- sally and gratefully acknowledged to be his when I record him as having attained the degree, not of A. B., but of C. B.-COLLEGE BUILDER. QGreat and continued applause.j Permit me to add, Dr. Pearsons, that while we have received so much from you in aid of our work, we are glad to think that you also receive something from us in your work of college building. We are all thinking of Yankton College in the grand effort it is making to fulfill the condition of your gift to its work. But while you give of your means to Yank- ton, we have been giving of our men. One of its senior professors, Dean of its Faculty, is a Beloit graduate. Last year we spared one of our own instruc- tors to take charge of another important department 'of instruction, and, now, from our graduating class, your own Class of '93, We send another to take charge of yet another department of science in the building you are giving to Yankton. Long may you and Beloit College live and work together in this great field of Christian education. .3 14 --'-N-:- AA. 21fg1,. 41 .1, ,gh V, , J Y xx-A ,, LKB 1 ' X -57-Wg 1 .,,,'xl.3 vgjx, ' Q X .411 E: L17 ELITE- 2' ., Lcgjjgm --:YIM 'fl-.

C C en sand elaborate equip- ment of the Pearsons Hall of Science can have but a faint conception of what science at Beloit meant before the new building came. The genesis of our n . , 1 1 or unities for study and investigation, like science itself, is an evolution, the stages of which areiinti- mately linked with the growth and development of the College. The records tell us that of the first two professors of the College, one, Professor Bushnell, -came in 1848 to take l ' ' clarge of the work in mathematics, physics, and astron- 0 omy. T . o now enjoy the spacious apfirtm t ew science course with its o 9 9 t ' ' The chairs of science, as they now exist, were created in the following or- der: Chemistry in 1849, geology in 1873, astronomy in 1884, and biology in 1888. The philosophical course was instituted in 1873, and the science course in 1893. A But the present advanta g er a strong -contrast to those which history reveals for the past. Some conception of the capacity of the new home for the sciences may be gained from a mere enumeration of the rooms devoted to the four sciences lodged in Pearsons Hall. . ges for science study in the College off The professors of physics and l each, including two large laboratories, a lecture-room, an oflice, and a private laboratory. c iemistry have attheir disposal seven rooms The departments of biology and geology comprise eight rooms each with ' 7 .a similar disposition to those of physics and chemistry A large and growin . . g museum, a science reading-room, furnished with periodicals of recent science literature, a large assembly room for science lectures and other gatherings of the College, make up the sum of space allowed the four sciences for present work and future expansion. In methods of work'the contrast with the past is as striking as in the space allotted to science. To an alumnus of the nfties or even of the eighties the new laboratories would certainly be a revelation. Laboratory-work is the rule, not the exception, in all the sciences. Inves- tigation in the laboratory and consultation ofa tl t f ' l u ioii 5 in tie various problems l 138 of science are inspired by new rooms, modern apparatus and improved library facilities. The recitation-room and the workshop are no longer combined, but. each contributes its share toward better and more practical results. The work ' d h' l is in every respect modern, and enables the College to meet a deman w ic 1 has been constantly increasing in its later history, for increased facilities on its. science side. The science in our present curricu urn a l ims to meet the needs of three classesof students who come to the college for mental discipline and trainings for life work. - . The immense practical application of science in our day calls for a large number of young men to prepare themselves by long-continued study in one line of science, for special practical work in that particular field. To such men, t ll ws them by its systems. the College, while not offering technical courses, ye a o of electives, to secure a splendid foundation in pra l t the same time supplementing d hiloso hy as is deemed ctical laboratory-work for post graduate study in their chosen specia ty. a this work with so much of history, economics, an p p essential to the liberally educated man and the intelligent citizen. e some of the practical engineer- Thus the young man who desires to pursu ing courses will find in the new building and new science course apparatus. and latitude in electives for four consecutive years of physics and mathematics, three years of chemistry, and an equal number in geology. i s To the prospective physician are offered four years of biology, three of chemistry, two of physics, with options in modern languages and history. But science to-day is being recognized as one of the best of mediums for training the mind to grapple with the problems which must face the student for solution in practical' professional life. Certainly no better exercise for the sys- tematic development of the mind can be devised than the careful observation of the facts of a science in a well-equipped laboratory, the correct grouping of ' these facts in their proper relations, and the cogent expression of those rela- tions in written form or in recitations. To the young men who demand such a training, with science as a basis. instead of the classics, the College now offers ample facilities. The new course' in science aims to secure enough of diversity for a liberal education, while in- suring against its perils by prescribed courses involving long-continued work in, some one chosen line. , There is, however, a third cla.ss of young men for whom the new courses offer especial advantages. The man of classical and literary tastes has occasion , . Av- - Y, ,-NYM Y ----V --4. - A v--W -v--fv-W ---H -H - H- Y U lilfl to rejoice with his fellows in science in the new regime. ln the general courses in science offered him he will gain a knowledge of the brilliant results of modern Science, and may learn something of the apparatus, and the methods, by which these results have been attained. In these days of startling discovery of facts which connect themselves so intimately with our every-day life, and with our e,s,timate..of, facts and phenomenaaround us, no educated man can atiord to he ignoranttof 'thesalient facts of all science. One may say that to know the mi- -croscope and the spectroscope and their revelations is in itselfa liberal educa- tion. With these many improvements in methods and in facilities, we appre- hend that the College will gain a new life from the magnificent building, with its corps of instructors and classes of students disseminating into the college life the facts and the spirit of modern science. Let those of us who have been associated with the old classical course, and have gloried in its well-earned fame, rejoice that the College can now offer to 'men of different tastes a triple choice of courses for their mental equipment. Different minds and different tastes create a demand for the one education or the other, and it is certain that any course in Beloit College will secure to a :man power and influence about in proportion to his zeal in its pursuit.

AMELIA HERRICK DOYON -DONQR OF OBSERVATORY DONOR OF CHAPEL ' ' Gbe Gollege vesper, Service Beloit College Chapel is the symbol of a divine love expressed in the nomenclature of the love which one human being had for another. g I The vesper service is the voice of this love. The influence upon the hearts of the students arising from the association of this -union of the human with the divine spirit, betokened by the erection of the Chapel, with the vesper service itself, is the source of a deeper spiritual power. - The perfect blending of the different parts of the service, each of which tends to put the mind in an attitude in which it is more susceptible to quick- ening and ennobling influences, is another element giving to the vesper service its greater interest and effect. In the first place, it occurs at a time When the soul naturally craves a higher dependence than that which resides within itself, 'when the night is superseding the day. ' f ,,,,.-1 , .

The beauty of the -Chapel itself is an added element, helping to increase the spiritual force which the service conveys. With love speaking through the hand ofthe architect, a struc- ture ideal in form and' beauty is the inevitable result. The steep German tower, the massive, rough-hewn walls, the many-cloistered entrance, . suggesting sol- -emn repose, all appeal to the architectural genius of the beholder 5 and Within, amid the deeply rolling notes of the great organ, surrounded by the re- fined and cultivated people, taking their places in the rich oaken pews, the visitor, environed by the superb furnishings of the place, has a sense of aesthetic enjoyment, second only to the deeper sense of consecration with which the place, imbues him. Ruskin has said that the fullest meaning of God's word cannot be had unless it is interpreted through music. The first half of the hour is devoted to a service of song. Led by a trained choir, the choruses of several hundred voices, swelling into majestic volumes, fill the place with music and the heart with inspiration. The thoughts of all, caught and held by this spell of thrilling harmony,.are directed in sympathetic union to the one common purpose, the praise of God. The reading ofthe scripture in concert 'tends further to unite all hearts into one single outgoing impulse of worship. The latter part of the hour is consumed by the President's address to the -students and assembled people. The tall and commanding form, cultivated voice, and earnest manner of President Eaton, his words the carriers of wise thought, most practical in its application, and sustained by rare and beautiful imagery, win for him close and unswerving attention. Through all these different elements of the service, the place, the music, .and the words of the speaker, is felt, consciously or not, that added impulse of power arising from that first union of love, from which the Chapel and service took their being. Y The service closes at 6 o'clock. The people go out from the most beaus- tiful and instructive hour of the week, refreshed in body, strengthened inmind, and elevated in spirit. g l l EIOIEIEILNI CIVI-ICJ :IO 'IEI gf N Q x f fmt: K A, A ' , F 'fm , ,X -A . 31,5 fa Q, W M fm? ,W fff, 4 4 'I V1 1 f,vf , MA bvffyf-,V f INTERICR OF CHAPEL 1- 1111 we ' ' 101.110 173'- '1 11br21YY- ' ' 111 a UWA 4'- ,.- aw31lC11111L 111st1u111f-IF. 1' a11d111c C1-7171 Beloit. 1? 74 1111111121111 gt.

'1 and L N 13601115 iz l-L5 Concerning the Glollege library? The era of larger growth and prosperity which has come, in recent years, to the College as a whole has extended a proportionate influence upon' the library. An influence whose effect is seen in the generally improved facilities, in a growing accession list, and, as shown by the increased patronage, an awakening of interest as to its use and importance. The library is a growing institution, both as regards its capacity of meeting the demands made upon it and the extent of the relations which it sustains to the students and people of Beloit. It now numbers nearly nineteen thousand volumes, and receives annually an addition of about a thousand volumes. The liberality of the management has invited a wider patronage and has done much towards putting the library into the sympathetic relationship with the student-community necessary for a freer and more complete usefulness. The students are allowed free access to the book-shelves, where, by a personal examination, they may search out their resources with greater freedom and interest. The rooms are open during the evening, an innovation upon the general custom of library-control in colleges, which is an accommodation to the student's time, as is evidenced by the large attendance at that hour. Poolels index, presenting in alphabetical order references to the subject- matter of all the leading magazines of the day, is also used by the students to an unusual degree, and gives to the files of bound periodicals, a large number of which date from the time of irst publication, a very great use, necessitating duplication in some cases. This index and the mode of classifying and cata- loguing books, employed by the library, known as the Dewey system, are fea- tures of very great library-utility. The Dewey system of classification is of comparatively recent date and is commendedby all who use it for the simplicity of its mechanism and the thoroughness with which it accomplishes the object desired. T A large amount of work is being done in the department ofthe library at present. The great urgency of the demand made upon it by the students and people in general require that its every resource should be placed in 146 the most available condition. Among other things, the work of indexing the Smithsonian Reports is an important feature. This index will be a valuable l l se and accurate references to adjunct to the library equipment, as furnis iing c o many scientific facts contained in these treatises. Also, at the expense of much time and labor, many files of such old and standard newspapers as the New d in convenient order and place. These York Tribune have been arrange files are of particular value for supplying authentic reports of events occurring in the late civil war, and such use is made of them by the professor of history. In connection with this work is the collection and cataloguing of pamphlets and church manuals, a multitude of which have been deposited in the library. The recognized value assigned by the students to these pamphlet works, for the new and concise information they contain, has rendered necessary the work of making them attainable. The enlarging library-resources have enabled, and the manifest need for their establishment has caused, the institution of depart- mental libraries: of astronomy, located in the observatory , of botany, physics, geology, and chemistry, in Pearsons Hall , of English literature, and of history and economics in Middle College. These libraries, though still small, are the 7 outcome of the general principles of library-economy and utility, and in this case under the impulsion of a felt need for them. Associated with them are the different reading-rooms of the College, the one in Middle College supported by the Archaean Union, the reading-rooin of scientific literature in Science Hall, and a third located in the main library-room in Memorial Hall. A list of the different periodicals they contain appears on pages 211 and 212. Owing to the over-crowded condition of the present library-accommoda- tions, the trustees have taken action which, to say the least, is prophetic of a change. The proposed change includes a removal of the major portion of the books from the second Hoor of Memorial Hall to the first. The south part of the lower hall will receive books of reference and files of current periodicals, while to the north, cases, whose collective capacity for receiving books will range from twenty-five to thirty thousand volumes, will be put in. A circular ascend- ing staircase will connect this Hoor with the one above, where the government reports, files of papers, and books least in demand will be deposited. Our library, with the added effect of clearer glass in the windows, an electrical lighting system, and the cheerful dispensations of a fire-place, will afford physi- cal comfort and pleasure as well as aid to intellectual power to all who seek its retreat. 147 Glborue 1Refrains of the Greek llbIaQ Hfllcestie its Given by 30310 I.

S ,P A STS-sg , ff Tsss - ??ZZd LJ gp? -2 Q k saga U To the cursory observer the science of composite photography presents a mysterious aspect. ' t However, the method by which an image is made up from the features of several persons -which shall resemble, in its entirety, no single one, but will still have an expression or lineament, more or less Common to each, can be scientifi- cally explained. ' I ' , In the case of the composite picture 'of the Faculty, herewith presented, the photographic plate received, in rapidusuccession, impressions from the features of the fifteen men composing-our Faculty. Owing to the number of the im- pressions which the plate had to receive, it was necessary, in order to avoid over-timing, to shorten the interval of exposure to two seconds. During this brief interval, only the most prominent features of the face first exposed to the plate could have made an impression upon it. The features of those following, which bore a likeness to those of the first, deepened this impression. The resulting photograph is an impression built up of those features of the Faculty which bear a strong resemblance to each other. The expression or lineaments of those men whose physiognomy is distinctive in character is but faintly, if at all, represented. The general lack of vivacity in the expression is a character- istic of all composites of many component parts, and is due to the fact of the inability of the minor andindividualizin g points of expression to make an effect ' in the short time allowed. 156 The photograph, as it is, constitutes a pictorial type of our College Facultyfl It also typifies, taken as a class, all men of the same profession. It represents a man 45 years of age, which is the mean of the different ages of the Faculty. All men tend to be influenced and molded by the professions which they follow, until they, in a measure, typify them. In like manner does this picture represent a man who incarnates the whole in- structional influence ofthe College, as it proceeds, colored by their different personalities, from the different members of the Faculty, who in turn represent their different departments-a man as capable of teaching, the sciences as the classics. The picture has been examined by a noted physiognomist, whose decisions are interesting, if not accurate. Q A very intellectual head, metaphysical and philosophical, but not me- chanical, a close observer of men , not irritable or combative, except in regard to morals violated, prudent and sagacious, but not cunning. Theroundness of the head indicates veneration, ideality, and poetry, as indeed does the gen- eral expression of the countenance. Economy and acquisitiveness are mani- fested by the thinness of the nose, the eyes do not rest deeply enough in their sockets to betoken a shrewd or politic character, the fullness under the eye is indicative of eloquence and power of verbal expression, the size and prominence of the ear betray great executive power and physical energy, the great length of the eye-sockets indicates mathematical precision. The facial proportions, although full of deep repose, bespeak a nature capable of pas- sionate intensity of feeling. The symmetricalforehead means a balance of the powers of reflection and perception, with an average amount of practical abil- ity, the width and indenture of the chin denote fidelity and a desire for af- fection. The large nostrils 'express physical courage and a preference for pugilistic methods rather than civil means for settling a dispute, the moderate height of the rear of the head betokens a commendable degree of self-respect. Hope, enthusiasm, and ambition are not emphatically expressed in any of the lines of the face. The picture is full of latent expressions and requires the closest scrutiny in order to detect and recognize certain resemblances, while others are plainly evident. The general facial expression is similar to President Eaton's and Professor Em- erson's , the only ear visible and the hair above are clearly those of Professor Burr. The eyes which are looking out of Professor Wright's orbits are similar to Professor ll'liiiiw-'Z' own fm llli llic lcfl- ll the inf cl ' 1 iihifmr . terizing fs pl fs nierniirr- ture. l- F ....

The nose is quite common property, as is also the fore- head, minus the beard, the chin is plainly Professor E. G. Smith's. The temple to the left, with the stray lock of hair, suggest Professor Blaisdell's. The lower part of the face contains a strong resemblance to Professor Porter , within the outer line of whiskers, Prof. Pearsonls lower facial outlines can be detected. The charac- terizing expression of inhabitativeness must be ascribed to Professor Bacon. A close observer, intimately acquainted with the features of the different members of the Faculty, might distinguish resemblances to them all in the pic- ture. But to some it offers few if any points of similarity. i 0 fl lvfgff, lu 5? . ' H 5 , x gem Something original and terseg A In form, a bit of shapely verse. -This, asks the class of ninety-five.

He kindly yielded to the demand made upon him for a speech. As the Doc- tor rose to his feet, amid a tempest of enthusiastic demonstration, in which the oldest seemed vying with the youngest, all were impressed with his strong per- sonality. The erect form, the keen and flashing dark eye, the nervous direct- ness of speech, emotion quivering along the edges of his wit, all spoke the man of strong, deep nature. His speech, which was punctuated with frequent and hearty applause, was as follows: H ' This new college dormitory stands as a part of my will executed while I am alive. N o foreign relatives -can come in and claim it, and no judge will be smart enough to get it away. This dormitory will stand for the uplifting of humanity. Several Sundays ago I heard a Chicago minister say that the men of the next century would excel in genius and achievements those of the one now ending. I asked him: Where will these men come from P He replied : From the log-cabins and valleys of the Northwest, from the farms and future cities of this great and growing section. In other words, the poor boys of the present are those who, with their successors, will lead in the affairs of the next century? H 'It is for the benefit of thQSe poor boys that I have built this college dor- mitory. There they will have a pleasant college home, and there they can live cheaply and well. It is to put within the reach of every one an education such as Beloit College affords that the college dormitory has taken form and be- ing on the campus. ' But this dormitory must have a name, and I can do no better than name it after the man who, forty years ago, had the genius to plant this College in the best location in the West, and who has given the best years of his life to the work of building up this College. This dormitory shall be named U Chapin Hall, after ex-President Aaron L. Chapinf . ' Dr. Pearsons then read the letter he had received from President Eaton, regarding the need and cost of a science hall, and, at his request, President Eaton read Dr. Pearsons's reply, in which the latter agreed to build the hall. Then the cheering and clapping of hands were renewed, and Commencement exercises proper were at an end. CHAPIN HALL I, s C 1 cv 1. x.

His father was a skilled boiler-maker and ma- chinist, and possessed ofa handsome property. At I5 years of age he was pressed into the army-service under Napoleon, was present at the burning of Moscow, and was one of the ha.ndful of hardy survivors from that fearful and disastrous campaign. John was the seventh of his nine children, and, owing to financial reverses of his father, was thrown entirely on his own resources at the age of I2 years. He learned the trade of shoemaker, going to school from five in the morning until four in the afternoon, and then working at his trade until ten in the evening. At I4 years he left school and worked at his trade until he was 18. ' On April 28th, 18 5o, he left his home for America, came directly to Chi- cago, where he lived for eight months, and from there to Beloit, where he has made his home since 1851. His life here, save four years as foreman of the shoe-shop at the State Reform School, has been passed in working at his trade as a shoemaker, as a farmer, as foreman of a coal and lumber yard, as a painter, and since 1866 as janitor of the College, and, incidental to all these varied pursuits and occupations, gathering to himself some goodly share of this worldls goods. He was married in 1865, and has had five children, three of whom are still living. No sketch of the College would be complete without some allusions to john, whose marked personality has made him one of the figures of the College lrfe through all stages of 1ts development The old student returnmg 15 not slow to look up the famrlrar face and figure whrch welcomes lnm w1th as much warmth and zeal as ever m years gone by the owner roasted hrm by the hot stove of the class room or forced hrs unw1ll1ng feet by the mexorable Col lege bell Posslbly how ever those mutual greetmgs are none the less warm and hearty because of tradrtrons, even yet floatmg about the College, that when from hrs watch tower on the top of Mrddle College, where hourly john used to cl1mb to rmg the bell, some belated student was seen makmg hrs best trme across the campus, that H mexorable bell w as grven an extra turn or two yust help thmgs along a brt To d1scharge acceptably the dutres of JE:L1'lltOI' rn a college calls for talent of an unusual order and some strong pecuhar trarts of character Trustworthr ness, falthfulness, perseverance, patlence, are not the least among them Whether Hjohn has these trarts rn marked degree the students of th1s day no less than those from former generatrons, can abundantly testrfy 1' he bells are always on the dot when Johns hand 1S on the rope The frres are ready when the mornmg recrtatron hour comes around 'lhe dust IS cleared away z e , the most of 1t when the broom and dust pan have been resrgned to hrm The skeleton has been regularly lugged back to rts closet, the hay swept out of the chapel, the wood prle removed from the roof, and mnumerable slgns, wagons, anrmals, and other rncrdental drversrons banrshed and restored these efforts of the Freshman and Sophomouc mmd and hands were not per ennlal and to be expected regularly as a sort of college measles or mumps among hrs boys Them young rascals have no terrors for hrm nrght or d y because, as he sometrmes says They all know me and I know Mem The thrrft whrch has enabled john Hto have the best house of any m mber of the Faculty has been manrfested to an equal degree rn the savmgs to the College rn the mmor expenses entrusted to hrm It has proved a hard thmg for workmen and tradespeople to get away wrth hrm rn the1r dealrngs wrth the College through hrm A further marked trfut ent1tl1ng hrm to specml recogmtron by the student body, IS the sohcrtude for the studentls hrghest and best hfe and the helps often quretly rendered 'fto get a man along Not rnfrequently thrs has taken tanglble shape m one form and another of d1rect assrstance, but more rn 111S1S'C mg on fllf1'11'Sl1lHg opportunrtres for self help by the students themselves Many . y I 167 D , Y , ' ' 77 , ' ' to ' ' .

Iohn's sayings are a part of the College record. Quaint, incisive, flav- ored with a touch of the German brogue, his comments on the College, the Faculty, the students-none have escaped-have brightened many an hour, and given point to many of the humdrum experiences of College life. In a word, if the man who does his work well, wherever it may be, de- serves Well of all men, then, surely, twenty-seven years of such continuous, faithful service do entitle the subject of this sketch to the gratitude and consid- eration ofall friends of Beloit. Certainly may John's shadow neverbe less, and may as honorable a record be maintained by those who may come after him. E.

IDf6ff6t 6 IDUIUQ Ilbutw HND IDIOIIOSODIJQ HO, dear me suz, the time of my departure is coming! I shall go to Heaven, but I am afraid that all the professors will not follow me, When a man heaps up wealth, he heaps up sorrow. I, myself, have worked twenty-seven years for the College, and my greatest reward is that my name stands as a monument to the boys. The chief advantage of a moustache is, that when you kiss a girl it holds lingeringly the sweet impression. , For the stomach-ache, take twelve drops of camphor in one-third glass of water, if you don't feel relieved, wait five minutes and take the dose again, if you don't get relief, wait fifteen minutes and take the dose again. It will not be necessary to repeat it. The janitor's advice to the President upon the latter's departure: Take good care of yourself and keep up the reputation of the College. Yes, the College has smart boys, but what it needs is smart professors. I have a feeling that the boys couldn't fool me. - A ' MI shall not go to the Fair. I don't want to go down there and get my life killed in all that fuss. Now-days we can read all about it in pictures. Greek is to the brain like beef to the stomach. It takes good grinders for both. A i I have been twenty-seven years going through College, but I learn some- thing every time I go through. I The air is made up of two acids, oxygen and hydrogen. People should be careful about putting charcoal upon the fire, it draws the oxygen from the air, leaving the acid hydrogen, and then you are a goner. Prof. Smith will tell you the same thing and more practically than I. But you can't fool me about it, either. I '4The leaves of the trees are like the adornment of ladies. No two ladies dress alike and no two trees. The cupola is the cause of my eyes squinting. It makes a compres- sion of the outer air driving it down the chimney, making the stoves smoke in the professors' recitation-rooms.

'Twas about co-education, All thoughts were golden-hued, And tinged with blissful moonlight walks, With love's sweet tones imbued. II. There was Tom, we called him Lengthy, A great man on the team, But his clothes they never fitted him He was so lank and lean. And Joe, he was a fellow Thathsparked nights with the girls, And always talked of bright blue eyes, 1 And golden hair and curls. ' lVhile Bob, he never bothered About such things in life, Just said, he'd got no use for girls Until he'd want a wife. K III. Now, Lengthy Tom, he took his feet From off the chiffonniere, V And braced himself and cleared his throat And gave it to us clear. ' Now, boys, it is a subject, this, lOn which I long have dwelt, And by reasons deep and learned, These sober thoughts I've felt, For if it comes to blacking shoes, And trying to look slick, I And wearing necktiesand such truck, Just count me out there, quick. 7 174 iv But Joe, across there, on the iioor, He smiled a pitying smile, Upon the youth whose heart ne'er glowed, W'ho never was in style. Said he: Now, boys, how nice 'twould be With the dear girls by our side, Bright golden curls and azure eyes, Where sentiment doth hide, And when o'er the green and rustling trees, Streams the pale moon's silvery light, And you but hold a soft white hand. Ah, then, your out of sight. V- Come off, there, said plain old Bob, Your talking through your tile, Those kind of girls don't go to school, You get another style. These girls are always long and thin, Brush back their hair all straight, A pair of specs on a large, thin nose,- Your dreams are all a fake. No laughing eyes about those girls, And if the Prof. some day Should crack ajoke, like some he does, They'd all faint dead away. i Q VI. The evening shadows drawing on Made dark the room within, And silence stole on those about, When somber thoughts begin. And each one seemed to think the school W'as better after all, Then to run such awful chances As Bob's remarks let fall. For the world is what we think it And in dreams we have the say, And our ideals have golden hair, And laughing blue eyes gay. Y I.

One beautiful morning last summer, As Phoebus arose in his might, When the stars were released from their duty Of keeping the firmament bright, Wheli the maid bade adieu to her lover And man again took up his care,- Six gay, happy, light-hearted Juniors Bought tickets to go to the Fair. 7 2. They are Barron, and Butcher, and Farley, And Grriflith, and Burcalow, too, The other-his name I'll not mention, For I'm sure that it never would do. But I'll tell you of some of the Wonders These Juniors beheld at the Fair, And also of some of their actions But tell of them all I don't dare. 7 3. But now I must tell you of Barronf 1 An upright man as a rule, But you can never judge of a person By the Way he appears in the school. Oler pavements, through buildings he hastens Still swiftly he speeds on his way, The Works of the masters of ages He wanted to see in a day. 4. With one eye turned to the ceiling, The other one fixed on the floor, He took in a room in an instant And rushed through the opposite door. But when he Went down into Midway tHe went by the light of the moonj, How long he remained there I know not, VVe saw him again the next noon. 'See Barron's inimitable poem on Midway in the Moonlight. 178 Now, Farley and Burcalow wandered Together these mazes through, I'm sure, that I never could tell you Of all the strange acts of these twog I am not at all superstitious, But this thing I cannot explain, How two could walk out in plain moonlight And four could come back again. Now Butcheri' went down into Midway, The wonderful things to behold, He attended the Congress of Wo1nen, At least, that is what Ilve been told. Allured by the strains of the music And siren-like voices within, He went to the wide-open portal And cashed up the requisite tin. He entered the audience-chamber, His feelings no tongue can express, surfounded on three sides by women In every conceivable dress. Beginning one end of the side-show, I-Ie slowly commenced to go round, Each time 'twas like tearing a heartstring Until a new beauty was found. . Quite soon he heard strains of sweet music And then he strove nearer to get, For, far, far away in the corner, Were singing the Swedish Quartette. But when the sweet music was over And.Butcher in wonder looked round, He saw he was right in the clover, Before him, the harem he found. . The lovely, dark beauties of Turkey, So dazzling appeared to his eye, Some sitting, some lying on couches, He turned to depart with a sigh. How long he thus lingered entranced here I'm sure that no mortal can tell 5 He wandered at length back to Midway, For someone had broken the spell. 'l'See Butcher s Forty Beauties, Vol. VIL, Chapter XI., for a fuller description of this X isit 179 10. The last one to speak of is Grifiithft By hini is due mention deservedg To a restaurant often he wandered, ' Where fair Spanish waitresses served. But he never sat down to the table, He only feasted his eyesg Until he saw soniebody coming, 1Vho'd taken him all by surprise. 11. To Buffalo Bill's he Went one night, His evening hours to passg He wanted to see the Wild West Show, To tell to his Sunday School class. But now our excursion is over, And honieward at nightfall we rideg Our week at the Fair grounds is ended, Our purses are empty beside. A 12. With studies again we are busied, Each day brings its burden of careg But one- thing, I'nu sure We shall ever Remember, our Week at The Fair.

CHAPTER II Another young man entered the same college at the same time. As he was walking up the street to his boarding place, he noticed the sign on the other door of the entrance to the same large store-PULL. That will be my motto, said he, HI will pull my wa.y to success. ' C HAPTER III The first young man was true to his motto. He pushed the saw through the knotty cord-wood. He pushed the wheel-barrow through the muddy garden. He pushed himself to the front of his class. And to-day he is a pushing young divine as he pushes his baby through the streets of Brooklyn. CHAPTER IV The other young man was true to his motto. He pulled the fragrant Havana. He pulled two aces from his sleeve and pulled in the pot. He pulled the Faculty's leg.

A letter received, signature unrecognized, name unknown, yet containing a request so politely framed as to deserve a willing compliance. Let me then try to brush away the cobwebs and dust from my childhoOd's picture gallery, and expose to the present all that has not been effaced com- pletely or faded beyondrestoration. Here is the old College. An august name or O , and down, with four right angles for corners-too ,dignified for any embellish- ment save an aspiring cupola. Only an idea made visible, beautiful with possi- bilities and glorified by hope. Around are the ancient oaks, how ancient cometh not in the revelation. The swelling mounds are all in place, beyond is the calmly flowing river. A most persistent and persevering stream not to f f ur red brick walls straight up have swerved once from its course in all the years. It was my privilege to see 'fthe laying of the corner-stone. The sainted men who made the prayers are gone, the prayers are forgotten 3 yet the re- membrance is distinct of a dainty white frock in which father's daughter was arrayed when he led me by the hand so far away from the home on Broad Street as the College Hill seemed to be.

A school-room on the second fioor, directly above the one which was later called the Chapel, a place in yvhich afliicted and tortured boys were obliged to attend prayers at the hegthenish hour of 5 A. M. The walls of the school-room were rough plastered-plan form, table and chair for the teacher, on the north side-pattern not distinct, but the teacher's sweet, smiling face is bright as ever, and the curling brown hair is as glossy now as when it caught the sunlight on its smooth surface. Books are lying around, United States History, Watts on the Mind, and Botany. We did not roam far for Howers in those days, they were everywhere, in wood, and held, in dell and dingle, until utility usurped beauty, and homesteads crushed the fragrance into the ground below the cellar, and the intersecting highways frightened the modest blossoms to death, Miss Ada Merrill, teacher, companion, friend, is the name attached to the treasured picture. In ye ancient daysn the worthy parents combined with the conscientious and exacting teachers in not permitting the course of education to be inter- rupted for more than half a day in six, By way of compensation the girls of our school were permitted-not to say obliged-to attend rhetorical exercises in the lower room where orators more eloquent QFD than Demosthenes or Henry Clay invited admiration or provoked laughter and severe criticism. Ah! here is a picture of the Adonis of the school, tall and graceful, with light, wavy hair. Clarence Norton, a romantic name, but most fitting for one who wore Byron collars, and corduroy trousers buttoned from the knees down. It was whispered that he had been trained for an actor-possibly, as he excelled in elocution. I shall never forget how the Sailor Boyls -Dream thrilled the nerves with sympathy, and brought unbidden tears when his silver tones rang out from the rostrum. The semblance is perfect. Here, another handsome boy, whose most effective piece was Daniel Webster's speech about the murder of Ha hale old man to whom sleep was -sweet and who Hpassed from the repose of sleep to the repose of death, a ,general favorite he, and an all-around good boy, yet fOr him life WHS 21 failure- The features of the next are indistinct, but the name of Bradford is plain, his most effective declamation had something in it about dragging up drowned honor by the locks, accompanied by an appropriate gesture, which was very telling. The past is dumb as to his fate. The last and best picture of all, represents the benevolentiface and form of 'the honored preceptor, T. Merrill, and a chubby little girl, who holds EL 216 small sun-flower in her outstretched hand. Evidently she is waiting, and, watching the semblance grow under the skillful strokes of a pencil upon a sheet: of paper. Over all is the glow and radiance of a summer day, while any one: familiar with the landscape would recognize a shady spot on the campus. . . .

Seminary, but, for a while, in the preparatory department of the College. Although many years have elapsed since then, still my memory is as clear and. t as thou h the scenes and events. vivid, and my impressions are as srong g occurred but yesterday. Beloit Seminary was tie inspir l ' ' ation of Beloit College. The former was a h l'le the latter sprang forward under the strong plant of territorial growt , w ii f tl eo le of the state In fact without the Semi-- and sustaining powero ie p p . , , nary there would have been no College. The great attractions of the Semi- nary in the early days, itsadvantages offered to the young men and boys of d l o the dau hters of the pio- the territory, drew to it many of the sons, an a s g -, neers, whose only facilities for education so far had been what could be ob- l 'l d oftentimes through the medium of tained in the common schoo, provice , ., the log school-house. llit wil' '...

Physi gfiilli 217 .Attending the first school in jefferson County by walking barefoot during the summer time from Lake Mills to Aztalan, -and afterwards, between the years '37 and ,47, availing myself of the district schools in winter, I felt that I must strike out for something better. The fame of Beloit Seminary was then co-extensive with the territory. 'After long and weary effort, all the obstacles were removed, and in the fall term of 747 I entered Beloit Seminary as a student, after securing a home in the family of Mr. A. B. Carpenter, who was kind enough to receive me -in consideration of my services as a worker for my board. I remained in the Seminary until well in the the year '48. The instructional departments were in two rooms in the basement of the Congrega- tional Church, one for the girls, and the other for the boys. I am constrained to use the term girls and boys, because, at that time, considering their age and condition, the more dignified term of young ladies and young gentlemen would hardly have been appropriate. While- the girls did not exactly occupy the same study-room with the boys, still the joint exercises in which both sexes. participated, in class recitations, etc., etc., and in the mingling of daily prayer, when all were assembled together, show conclusively that under these au-- spices,with the same instructors, in daily contact on terms of equality, the students were then recognizing the tirst principles of co-education, which since- then have been adopted by some of the foremost educational institutions in the' land. At that time the necessities of the situation required Beloit Seminary to- give this full recognition of the equality of the sexes in its instruction. It was then the most prominent institution of learning in the territory, and there were- none higher or better. The State University, Beloit College and other col- leges, had not then appeared in view. In giving full, practical effect to ther first principles of co-education, it was hardly thought that it would be followed. in the succeeding years by such grand results, and that by this course Beloit Seminary would become the first institution in Wisconsin, if not in the West and the whole country, to inaugurate this work, and, therefore, would be en- titled to receive the full measure of credit therefor. When Beloit Seminary opened its portals for the admission of students of either sex, the question was not raised if the young ladies were equal in mellfal power to the young men. To-day, in the State University, where co-educa- tion has existed for twenty years and been most successful, the judgment of all careful observers is that they are fully equal in mental vigor, and possessed Of physical strength sutiicient to aid them to healthful and satisfactory' graduation. ' 2lS o, and entered the prepara- d to have fully absorbed the old Seminary. Here the same rule and practice prevailed in relation to the equal- truction. The educators were gliding .smoothly along in the new, but natural, paths of co-education. At this time reason and justice were in favor of the recognition of this advanced educa- tional principle to its fullest extent. So far its easy progress was startling. But the ancient prejudices of its opponents were soon aroused, and the rich fruition of co-education, which seemed so nearly an accomplished fact, was Leaving the Seminary in '48 I returned in ' 5 tory department of the College, which seeme ity of the sexes in the matter of ins indefinitely postponed. well do I remember the class com- In the old Seminary recitation-room, posed of Geo. R. Clark, Horace White, W. Hooker, joseph Collie, and one whose name I cannot recall. They were in the preparatory class, intend- ing a full course in the College when it should become organized. I cannot ,give the whereabouts of all the survivors of this class. Little Horace White is now the great New York 'fmugwumpj' and joe Collie, as he is called, is :somewhere a minister of the gospel. This class attracted, at that time, a great deal of interest. Its members 'were looked upon with wonder because they were then headed for years of study towards their graduation in the future college. In the estimation of the .average student they were considered heroes, and the speculation was, would they ever be able to realize their ambition? Among the students there were Jonas Bundy, George Houston, Dennison Peet, joseph Peet, Dexter Colley, N. XV. Wheeler, -- Mills, j. C. Northrup, 'of Walworth, j. L. Millard, of Lake Mills, Benjamin Nute, of Milford, -ii Case, of Whitewater, and others too numerous to mention. Of the lady members I will mention the Misses Banta, Miss Mills, Miss Wheeler, of Be- loit, Miss Northrup, of Walworth, and Miss Cary, of Racine. As the years have sped on, the grim Reaper has been busy gathering in his harvest. Nevertheless, there are many survivors, scattered throughout Wisconsin and the West, who owe much to the early teachings of Beloit Seminary. For many years past, I have thought there should be a reunion of these early stu- dents, now men and women long past the meridian of life. It seems to me it might be made an occasion of great interest, not only in the individual enjoy- ment which would certainly follow, but also in the bringing together of very many incidents of early student life in Beloit, at the very threshold of Wiscon- Hlll X r ,r,-,- illit- jj'-fi fl ii Ullllgf if j'agfL'fl4' ltr 313: oi ha T-. olf'-1 than ' ' ,N W nr ' -. dll? than 1 1 5. inzimfzf inf' :rx - x , 1 to 13.2 .

In '50, the year of my last attendance, and when the Seminary propel- had merged in the preparatory department of the College, the College building upon the hill was in the process of completion, but in its unfinished state it received the various classes. The College was becoming rapidly equipped for its future work, with President Chapin and Professors Bushnell, Emerson and others, all men eminently qualified to discharge the duties and responsibilities. of conducting this young and growing institution. As I now look back to their first associations with the College, it seems to me that men never came to any institution in the W'est better qualified than they were, and one who knew them can only think of them with respect and veneration. I should be greatly derelict in duty, and do violence to my own feelings, influenced now by the recollections oflong ago, ifI should fail to pay a pass- ing tribute to S. T. Merrill, the man who was then principal, and who seemed to me to be the life and soul of Beloit Seminary. He occupies a place of love' and reverence in the memories of all the old students, he was so strong, and yet so kindly, as he painted the ray ofhope to the undisciplined, yet ambitious, students. XV e all owe to him a debt of gratitude which can never be paid, and we trust that his declining years may be those of peace and happiness. Beloit Seminary and Beloit College, established so early in the history of our territory and state, should justly be considered the pioneer institution of learning within our borders. - From that time on the College has steadily grown in public favor. In view of the fact that it has never been the recipient of aid from the state or national governments, and is too far West to be remembered in the wills of Eastern millionaires, its success has indeed been great. - Beloit College has been charged with being too puritanical for the liberal West, and a little too much on the moss-back order. However, ifit will even now open Wide its gates to the young women, and recognize their claims to- equal educational facilities with the young men, the dawn of its millennium will be near at hand, and there will be confirmation of the traditional truths de- scended from Beloit Seminary. Since writing the foregoing, there has wondrously come to my hands from out of the wear and dust, saved from the wreck of over ,forty-five years, a scheme or programme of the exercises on the closing of the term of Beloit Sem- inary, March 21st, 1848, in words and figures following: A 220 BELOIT SEMI ZIRY- Eueshug QE1TC1Ii1IiQ, 311113211 21st, 1848 on.DEn-cg EXEQISES.

It appears to me that the bringing to light of this relic will be of interest to fold students and residents of Beloit. It was on a Saturday, with a conveyance kindly furnished by my old friend, A. B. Carpenter, that I made the trip to Janesville to get it printed, as, at' that time, such work could not be done in Beloit. It was a day in March when the north wind swept the prairie road with its fiercest blasts, and it seemed at times as if the horses and all would be toppled into the gullies by the roadside, but I will say no more. Let the pro- gramme speak for itself. MADISON. E. W. KEYES.

D., which in this case might be interpreted: Leveler of Lines of Division. His hair was brushed back from his high and dome-like brow, his hearty appetite and scrupulousravoidance of physical exercise produced in him or on him a fine rotundity of shape. He was a marvel of devoutness and wisdom. Once he came to grief. He was standing, with others, observinga game of Uwicketf' Now, that game of wicket, as it was played in the early days in Beloit, may need to be described, as it has fallen into lamentable desuetude. In comparison with that game, tennis and even base-ball appear almost effeminate. I It was a suitable sport for the brawny young men of that time, the.sons of theipioneers of Wisconsin and Northern Illinois. It was a titanic form of cricket. The ball was some six inches in diameter, covered with heavy leather. The heart of this ball was supposed to be a geode incapable of fracture. The bats were elegantly shaped. Imagine an extremely oblate Canada squash, with a neck greatly elongated, and, if your imagination serves you rightly, you have the model. But there was nothing pulpy in the material of those bats. They were made of two-inch plank, ash or oak, bound with iron about the broad end. Oh, for the inspirations of the Muse of Athletics to describe the joy of the master-stroke that sent that ball cutting its way through the grass of the campus, like a prematurely invented lawn-mower, or careering through the atmosphere like a new-born comet I The future valedictorian and D. D. stopped one of those balls uninten- tionally. He stood full-fronted in the predestined course of the whizzing sphere. ' As he fell to the ground, he uttered a brief exclamation, which was under- stood to be the first syllable of the Latin word which we translate condemn, Such a fall was there, my brethren! Body and reputation leveled to the earth at one fell swoop. It was reported among the students that the occurrence was known to the authorities of the College, and some of the fellows declared their belief that our unfortunate classmate had been made a subject of prayer in a meeting of the Faculty. The omnipresence and omniscience of the officers of the College was a continual surprise and disappointment to thessmall minority of the students who were mischievously inclined.

There were giants in those days-Ajax now supporting his family in the ser- vice of Uncle Sam 5 Hercules, now wieldinga clubin Chicago 5 heroic Lengthy, head and shoulders above all, now a Minneapolis Bishop. And they performed great labors, those earnest men of the middle of the last decade. Were not two of them able to apply mechanical power so efficiently as to remove the new-fangled mowing machine' from competition' with Stanton Keye's swinging Scythe? And did not the surveying class, by the use of brain and brawn and transit, bring the state line several rods nearer to the College campus P So when they fought it was no ordinary struggle. For instance, when '85's canes were pitted against '84's plug hats it required all the eloquence of the rest of the College to effect a reconciliation. W'hen the Archaean Union was on the eve of electing its only salaried officer, the literary societies were reported to have sat up till midnight admitting members who might vote on the morrow. Then there were joint debates, in addition to the formal f'Public Archaean, at which the two societies made a fairer trial of strength, each supporting by volunteer speeches its appointed representatives. i One such recurs to me, held in the rooms in Middle College, where, by dint of such loyalty, the worse was made the better reason, and a decision against civil service reform was wrun g from the presiding officer. At foot-ball, too, the giants used to meet, and I dare to affirm that, whether measured infcorporeal dangers oriin amount of exercise per man, in College, our playing under any body's miscellaneous rules produced as much damage and benefit as does that of the team that dines on the lean of the land at the training tables of to-day. The former days were not better than the present. The Glee Club was represented only by a mild fore-runner, the Phi-Beta-Sigma Quartette 5 the Banjo Club, by the Delian Band and the Alethean organ. The Athletic Asso- ciation was a young organization, formed chiefly to manage the Field Day, of which it made a great success. ' Before long the naval department of the College was merged in it, and there was a spring rally every year to keep the boat-house, then set over the water on piles, from floating down stream. 9 The Rozwm' fable ca1ne out behlnd tlme every lssue, and behmd ln 1ts finances every year The fratern1t1es met at the members rooms or ID the Dehan room greatly to the scandal of certa1n conservatwe Dellans The Llbrary was open for a short hour at noon, the l1brar1an hugglng a box stove 1n h1s den, and as for the mam room, whatever else you found 111 1ts alcoves, you we1e sure to get a cold there The tax gatherer phed lns unpopular calhng he called early and often 1n fact The SL1bSC1'1pl1101'1 paper went 1ts rounds one I remember, belng for the equlprnent of the gy1T1I13.S1llII1 NV1tl'1 a Hstethomegalunator and other mod ern apparatus, another, at a mckel a head belng to try the vlrtues of a ready made cornpos1t1on shop wh1ch drd not stand the test But there were, at Belo1t, then, what CO115t1tlltCS Belo1t s strength now, mm men on the Faculty, men 1n the classes It was m those days that Belort won first honors at the Inter State Contest then that she played base ball w1th M3d1SOD, NV1tl'1 a score of two to one ln league games I bel1eve that the Lollege, whatever be her fortunes 1n the future, need ask for no truer men than those that her walls sheltered durmg the last decade A NIEMBER OF 85 I I-Ll.

The Prohibition party would poll so many thousand votes, or by St. John of Kansas, big John A. El would treat all the class to an oyster supper. The election came and one of these enthusiastic embryo politicians-it matters not which-lost. He. manfully prepared to pay his wager. The oysters were ordered. In the generosity of his heart he bought a bunch of celery. That was extra-not nominated in the bond-but what cared he for that ? . He proposed to pay that wager superabundantly. The word was passed to the outside members of the class, to the swells and bondholders who did not have to live on two dollars per Week at the Club, but could indulge in the luxuries daily set before the Pfefferites, the Rogerites and the Merrillites, The hour was set at 6: 30-after ffhoi polloi, -the ravenous Prep., the wonder- ing Freshie, the too previous Soph., and the sarcastic junior had each finished his bread and milk and gone. The feast must be held amid fitting surround- ings. ' The eventful evening came. Fate kindly ordained that greater eclat should be given the occasion by having the induction of President Eaton to take place that same evening. I The bread-and-milk crowd had seen the preparations, had envied from afar, had departed. The festivebanquet board was decked for the awaited guests. All things seemed propitious. CHAPTER H. Out in the gloom a villainous band of conspirators were darkly plotting. There was Randolph, the Tall Sycamore of Mud Creek 5 Bomsteen, the p1'z'zz'e of '88, leader alike in borrowing brown plug hats and removing city sidewalks 5 Cheney, the guileless innocent of ,9O. The plan was arranged. The conspirators with muttered oaths separated. They a.l1 awaited the signal. Suddenly the innocent knocked at the kitchen door, asked for Mrs. fa, Q . ' ' 'hitters 231 Sherman. Would she be kind enough to lend him a needle and thread, he must have it at once to repair his apparel for the induction. The darkly laid scheme was successful. Mrs. Sherman left the kitchen. Instantly the outer door swung open, the Tall Sycamore loomed up in the darkness, crossed the kitchen in two strides, seized the kettle of fragrant soup, disappeared into the night, regardless of the lamentations of the kitchen mechanics, CHAPTER 111. ' i In Armstrong's room the conspirators re-assembled, with several recruits. Note the glee and wicked leers with which each seizes spoon, tumbler, shav- ing-mug, and falls upon the booty. We regard such scenes of revelry with regret that we were not there, too. y CHAPTER IV. lThis chapter recounts what the Seniors said and thought when Mrs. Sher- man told them -the soup was gone. Although by far the longest chapter in the story, it is omitted out of respect to the guileless 'innocence of the youthful Prep., who may per chance read these lines.l f CHAPTER v. ' Next day the following notice appeared ion the bulletin board : sl le 1 C ,ET c Ji-c SHTCSJI 1-N1 NO questions will be asked on the return, in good condition, of the kettle, with or without contents, which disappeared last night from the Club.

The 'fCODEX is beginning to reach backi into history. Perhaps a very brief account of its birth would -be readable. The first recollection of the plan-no minutes or other data being at hand-was a talk with H. I. Cunningham, the prime mover. That Beloit had a Hlong-felt want which only an :annual could fill was agreed upon. It was also agreed that 'go was the class to fill it. But it is fair to add that but for HI-Ierb Cunningham, some other class would have had the honor of establishing the Beloit CODEX. I-Ie, with B. B. Jackson, A. S. Wheeler and the undersigned, bore the brunt of the labor. I Before the commencement season came, many class meetings were held on the campus mounds and in the dingy, but venerated, old Chapel, and the plan of publishing a Beloit annual was proposed to the Faculty. At first it was opposed, chiefiy on the grounds of time and expense necessary, but later, on a very close vote I believe, the desired permission was granted. The board was chosen and during the summer the business managers began to scourithe country for advertising-with success that startled the class in the fall. Real, tangible cuts, and contracts signed in bold business hands were decidedly inspiring. The work was laid out and the interminable class conferences began. The class had no precedents as guides. They could but make them for other classes. There were diverse opinions. The verbal clashings of those opinions once in a while partook of the nature of the lurid melodrama. At first the book was to be called the 4' Beloitonianf' Mr. Wheeler, the art editor, suggested the striking title you now see. The financial responsi- bility assumed by such a smallclass as 'go was great. I Wonder at the pub- lishers-now. W'ere the men of good old 'go as old then as now, I doubt if they would have dared to enter the struggle. But they did, and they suc- ceeded, and Beloit College has an annual to be proud of. The writer speaks feelingly. Too much CODEX cost him a year, through sickness. Several names have been mentioned. There is another which certainly should be added, Prof. Whitney's. I-Ie did a great labor of love for the CODEX, in many other Ways than the writing for it the best history of the College extant. DAVID RIDDLE WILLIAMS, '9r. 233 Ellumni IDCIZQOIIHIS l . '58.

IN THE rtb merican eview THE RIGHT TOPICS BY THE RIGHT NIEN AT THE RIGHT TIIVIE The Topics Are always those which are uppermost in the public mind-in morals, politics, science, literature, business, finance, industrial economy, social and municipal affairs, etc.-in short, all subjects on which Americans require and desire to be informed. NO MAGAZINE FOLLOWS SO CLOSELY FROM MONTH TO MONTH THE COURSE OF PUBLIC INTEREST. ALL SUBJECTS ARE TREATED OF IMPARTIALLY ON BOTH SIDES. The To the REVIEW are the men and women to whom the world looks for the most authoritative statements on the subjects of the day. - No other periodical can point to such a succession of distinguished Contrlbutors writers. The list is a roll of the people who are making the history, controlling the affairs, and leading the opinion of the age, such as Mr Gladstone, the Prime Minister of England, Signor Crispi, Ex-Prime Minister of Italy, Baron I-lirschg H. R. H. the Count of Paris, Cardinal Gibbons, Bishops Potter, Doane, Nlallalieu, Foss, etc., etc. The e When these subjects are treated of by these contributors is the very time when the subjects are in the publicmind-not a month or two after people have ceased to think of them. The prompt- ness with which the REVIEW furnishes its readers with the most authoritative information upon the topics of the day is one of its most valuable features. SUBSCRIPTION PRICE, 35.00 A YEAR.
