Collie CAN APPRECIATION, U '5Y E,gif.l5f3:Qf,'Z21 E who were class-mates and friends of Professor Collie during his col- 'slex Gigi? lege days, are not surprised that he has been entrusted with the L executive work of his Alma Mater in the year's leave of absence -H granted President Eaton by the' board of trustees. There is a great deal in Mr. Collie's college days to explain why Beloit honors him C? MJQQ as she does today, teaching staff and students alike giving him their A- respect and confidence. The simplicity of his character and ser- vice, first of all, assures a popular administration of college affairs. Mr. Collie is just himself. There is no affectation about the man, no servile copying of another who has achieved success. He is admired for his scholarly attainments, for his ability as a teacher, for his executive force. He is never, however, simply professional. Scholastic mannerisms do not separate him from his colleagues and students. There is an every- dayness about his life and work which brings him in touch with his fellows. 'We think of him first as a man who wishes to be what God intended him to be. And this is the kind of manhood that draws and wins recognition. Those who know Dean Collie best have a profound regard for his sturdiness. He possesses individuality. He stands for ideas. He has faith in great principles. He is conservative, yet progressive. His face is toward the future. He believes the best days are yet to come. He loves the old Beloit for its splendid history, for the noble and suc- cessful men it has sent into every field of endeavor. He has a passion for the new Beloit because of its unsurpassed opportunities for training men and women for grandly useful service. This appreciation will be incomplete if a word is not said concerning the compre- hensiveness of Professor Collie's manhood. Too few have a definite idea of all that enters into astrong personality. Some will emphasize intellectuality, others Christian character, and others still, the physical basis of manhood. An acquaintance with Mr, Collie con- vinces us that he has put the right value upon all the essentials that go to make the suc- cessful educator. He is sufficiently up in his science and in the methods of teaching it to give him the name of an expert authority. His commanding presence proves that he has the physical basis of a forceful personality. His interest in athletics and all that enters into the social life of the college, is further proof of his adaptability to meet the demands of his office. He has that comprehensive manhood so needed in the higher education of today. The alumni are especially gratined that one of their number has been selected to fill President Eaton's place during his enforced absence. The fact that Professor Collie has inspired faculty and students with confidence in his ability to make things move, is proof that the college has the right man in the right place.

NANQQQL, AU- ON g,OLL'e Retrospect .E 'uv ,-,gf y IGHTEFN hundred and thirty-seven was a notable year in the history p 1 E l of Beloit, being the one in which the New England Emigrating Co. ji' 'ef 19 .gi selected the present site of Beloit for their new homes. This was the C153 L' year of the great financial panic which brought disaster to all the country. It was a discouraging condition of things which confronted this new colony. Mr. Merrill, in 1837, closed his engagement as teacher in the Chesterfield Academy in New Hampshire, and went to Georgia where he taught eight years in Sparta and in Cuthbert. He resigned his work there on account of the slavery agitation of those days and with his wife came west, hoping to find an open- ing for some manufacturing business. Hearing that in southern Wisconsin a New England colony had planted itself and was already a -power in the northwest, they went by stage coach and lake steamer to Beloit in May of 1846. They found the location on the banks of the Siminissippi river f now the Rockl a delightful one, and the people of the sturdy New England stock, who had already built a fine church and secured a charter for an institution of learning-the Beloit Seminary. They were pleased to learn that the good people of the northwest had decided on Beloit as the location for a college. Desiring to find a place having good water power for a manufacturing business, Mr. Merrill would have gone further north, but for the fact that the stage driver would not wait for him to dine on the day appointed for him to leave. Before the return of the stage, he reluctantly accepted the principalship of Beloit Seminary, which successfully closed the first year under the new administration a few days after the corner-stone of Middle College was laid, on july 24th, 1847. The fall term opened in September with an increased number of students, many of whom were preparing for college. Four young men were ready to e11ter, and although no building had been erected to house them, and no professor had been elected to teach them, they commenced the studies required for the Freshman class. On November 4th, 1847, they were formally examined in the presence of trustees of the college and became full-fledged collegians, who continued their recita- O tions in the basement of the old stone church, which was the home of the seminary until the arrival of Professor Bushnell in 1848. Professor Bushnell in his quarter centennial address said : Slender and inadequate as the means of the college were, it had already made a beginning. Five young men had been fitted for college in Beloit Seminary, under the instruction of Mr. S. T. Merrill for the greater part of the Freshman year. This was the beginning of Beloit College. Mr. Merrill filled worthily that year the positions of president and professor in all the departments. Mr. Hobart, editor of the Beloit Crescent, in July, ,72, says : lVIr. S. T. Merrill and Mr. T. L. VVright laid the foundation of the immense business of paper manufacturing 20 SERENO T. MERRILL Retrospect-Continued which has done so much for the prosperity of Beloit, and perhaps more than all other things combined, has given it a name abroad. The beginning of this immense business was the building of a small paper mill at Rockton, which was no small undertaking, as all the lumber, water wheels and heavy machinery had to be hauled from the lake by teams, and there were no banks nearer than Milwaukee. Hundreds of mills are now manufacturing various kinds of building paper-it was also the grandfather of the paper- bag business, the machinery for which was first brought west by Mr. Merrill. While a member of the legislature of Wisconsin in 1876 Mr. Merrill secured the passage of abill for the organization of mutual savings banks. In 1881 he succeeded in establishing one here, and it has been of almost incalculable value to Beloit. Of all his efforts for the Welfare of Beloit, he regards this the most important and far-reaching in its results. He had much to do in the organizing and management of the Eclipse NVind Mill Company, and of the Merrill Sr Houston Iron VVorks. He was active for many years as a member of the board of supervisors of Rock county. Wliile president of the board of trustees of the county insane asylum and almshouse, he devoted much time to the erection of new buildings. Amid all these business activities, the welfare of the church has been near his heart, and during twelve years of its critical history he served as trustee, by self-denying, per- sistent efforts greatly aiding the church at the time of the erection of the new building on the bluff. In reviewing the past, it is with great pleasure Mr. Merrill notes the prosperity of the times and the growth of the city and college. In those dark days there were no rail- roads-it took the price of a bushel of wheat to pay for a postage stamp and two days for a letter to reach Chicago. The village has grown from a little hamlet to a cityg the college from one lone building on the campus to thirteen, including Emerson Hall. The stu' dents are to be congratulated on the advantages and large liberty they enjoy. In those, days athletics were unknown, secret societies were not recognized-no spreads were allowed and prayers were at six in the morning and ive in the afternoon. Graduates of the college are scattered through the World in every occupation and profes- sion-all loyal to their Alma Mater. 23 fm 9 jig! an Wh CVM YK wwi W my W pf N- 41 N 1 kr H Eff?

TW E H' I f A- X A 1G -41 I N K Xxffh A W' nn me ' 'A Nh W V f X lf Gbe Men Who Make Beloit Possible A7 NE familiar with recent events at Beloit has witnessed some remarkable crises in her history. There has been a radical change from the old to the new order of things. The pioneer trustee, teacher, and student, with their certain and well- delined characteristics, have given way to men of another generation with their Own peculiar demands and characteristics. The Beloit of fifty years ago, with its men and equipment, has yielded to another Beloit with its men - and equipment. That beau- tiful October day in 1892 when the corner-stone of Science Hall was laid, marked the turning point in the work of the collegeg it meant more trustees, more tt achers, more students, more equipment, more demands, more resources for the col- lege. If this new order of things was hailed with de- light by the students, and was gratifying to the friends, it brought added burdens and responsibilities to the ' trustees and executives. The most serious problem by far of this new condition was the moneys necessary to carry ' on the enlarged enterprise. Before this time an appeal had been made to the friends setting forth the needs of the college, the irst answer to this appeal came from that large-hearted friend of the college, Dr. D. K. Pearsons. Wheiiexver we think of the D- K- PF-ARSONS men who have made this new Beloit possible, this man comes first. Time and again since that first gift has he come to us in a large way. Pearsons Science Hall, Chapin Hall, Emerson Hall are the visible monuments to his gen- erosity, while more than f350,000 has been contributed to the endowment funds of the institution. Dr. Pearsons has thehabit of expecting the president and trustees to do something when he does. Large giver from his own funds, he expects them to meet him with substantial equivalents. Once and again have the trustees diligently set themselves to this labor of love. They have gone down deep into their own pockets, each according 25 The Men Who Make Beloit Possible-Continued to his ability, have talked and argued and labored with personal friends, have appealed to the college following, and thus somehow after all this exertion and agitation and presentation of the claims of the college, the necessary funds, in small and large sums, have come. It has been well said that the professors, the students, the alumni and friends put much into the college, but they all also get much out of it. But the Board of Trustees who are continually putting into the college get little in a direct way out from it, Their return, if return there be, comesin other ways. Through such labor only, however, is the work of the college possible, and how faithfully and fully have the conditions been met! And how few reminders of the names even of those thus giving are to be seen about the college campus! The men have been merged wholly in the institution itself. A most notable example of the attitude of the Board was offered during the last year, in the efforts to meet the conditions of Dr. Pearsons' latest gift, The increased expenses of the college, the demand for extensions to meet the new courses of study offered, the diminished earning power of invested funds had combined to create an annual dehcit which must be stopped or the college would eventually become bankrupt. Recogq nizing this condition, Dr. Pearsons made an offer of f200,000 conditioned upon raising the sum of 8I50,000 additional. The task seemed hopelessg the following of the college had been taxed to meet former appealsg but the Board took hold of the problem with a firm grip, a handsome subscription was made at the first meeting where the gift was announcedg friends of the college were again interviewedg the student-body, as once be- fore on a similar occasion, returned a large subscriptiong and at the last to make all secure, the Board made an additional pledge and guaranteed the payment of y?5o,ooo, and what seemed to be impossible in the time allowed had been accomplished. Last come mencement was a memorable one. The college for the first time in its fifty years of ser- vice was in a financially sound condition. And to whom was this due but to the body of men who, without hope of adequate recompense, had given so largely of their means and themselves. No institution can become great until all connected with it view it from a common point of vantage. The professors may be ever so learned and capable of impartf ing that knowledge to others, the students ever so enthusiastic and loyalg but back of them and acting with them must be a body of men in full accord with the ends of the col- lege and in sympathy with its work to the last degreeg who can grasp the whole problem of the institution, plan for its advancement in all profitable ways, and provide the means for carrying on its work. The Old Beloit was singularly fortunate in her earliest advisers. Has not this New Beloit also found in her present Board of Trustees men equally devoted to her ideals, and as capable of solving the problems of the new conditions ? ERASTUS G.

He had heard the Master's voice, bidding him give his life to the building of a college which should stand for all that was deepest and most genuine in Christian character. And joseph Emerson obeyed the call. The work to which he gave his life was worthy of the offering made. It was large enough to take in and put to the finest uses his largest possi- bilities of growth and of service, for all his years of life on earth. And of the students in his classes-what shall we say? Did such a teacher attract only such scholars, or did he make them such by the transforming power of his own life? Of the early students, there was not one who did not feel the uplifting power of this 1.nan's life, not one who had not caught something of the enthusiasm of his high purpose. If there were exceptions they were rare. Altogether the relationship of teacher and scholar had never been more beau- tifully exemplified. Perhaps Professor Emerson gave to President Chapin and Professor Bushnell and the first Trustees of the College-grand men they were-a little deeper,warmer place in his heart than he could give to any that came after. They and he stood together at the beginning of the life of the college, had shared great thoughts of heart as they planned great things, and, as they talked with God in prayer, had caught the wider outlook of the Kingdom of Christ, of which they were a part. But for everyone there was room and a welcome in his great heart. He loved the college and everyone in it. He took the interests of the students deep into his heart. He believed in them, and trusted them for the best things. He saw the largest and finest possibilities in each life. He expected that each life would be lifted up to a higher plane, from contact with his own riper experience and clearer vision. Those who gathered in his class room were to be trained for great service, some- where in the Kingdom of Christ. The Master had need of them, a place for each one to nll, a place large enough to call for each one's best, a place that none other could nll so well. It was a joy to him to help them. It was a joy to see mind and heart open under his teaching, and from his outlook get the clearer and broader vision of the great things of God. From the serene heights where he dwelt he had this vision, and he wanted them to have it too. Trained and disciplined and polished they must be for highest beauty and highest use, in the Temple of God, and he must help them. The loved and honored teacher saw it all so clearly, and felt it all so deeply, and he could help his scholars to attain it, asrfew teachers can. W'as it not in part, at least, because he loved them all so well, and loved the Kingdom of his Lord with a love so loyal and so true? , WII,I,IAM PORTER. 35 barles El. JBacon TII1 !ID6mOl'i8lh1 HE external facts and dates regarding any life furnish only the frame in which is set the personality that we have known, but even so they have their interest. Charles Alfred Bacon, son of the Reverend William F. Bacon, was born Feb. 24, 1862, at Brattleboro, Vt. He was graduated from Dartmouth College in 1883, and taught at Hallowell, Me., and at Wakeneld, Mass. On the recommendation of Prof. A. W, Burr, who had known his reputation at Hallowell, Mr. Bacon was appointed Instructor in Mathematics and Director of the Observatory in Beloit, and came here in the fall of 1885. In 1886 he was made Professor of Astronomy and Director of the Observatory, in 1888 he took charge of the Library. In 1888, and again in I89O, he enjoyed several months of residence and professional study abroad. In 1893 he was married to Mrs. Alice G. Sheldon. In 1899 he gave up the Observatory and assumed the chair of French. His death occurred Nov. 6, 1901. Professor Baconls work for the college was thus devoted chiefly to Astronomy, the Library and French. In the astronomical department, to which he first gave his atten- tion, he applied himself with ingenuity to supplementing the equipment, and brought the Observatory into notice by supplying a time service to neighboring cities, and by writing for the press on astronomical subjects. He conducted an important series of observations on sun-spots, and enlivened by his genial presence the tedious night-watches of star- gazing students. When his physical disabilities, in 1899, compelled him to give up the Observatory, he threw himself with characteristic vigor into the teaching of the classes in French which he assumed. His methods, whether in drill in the elements, or in the reading of his favorite authors, were his own, and called for a large expenditure of vitality on the part of the instructor, and close attention to business by the students. In 1888 the care of the Library, which Prof. Emerson had carried since 1848, was laid upon the shoulders of Professor Bacon. He was not dismayed by the cheerless environ- ment of tl1e upper room where it was then quartered, but addressed himself vigorously to the improvement of heating and lighting, and the extension of the library-hours. He re-arranged the books according to the Dewey system, and carried through the task of making a card-catalogue. Dr. Horace lfVhite came to his assistance with a timely gift, in 1895, and in the Spring of that year the books were brought down to the lower Hoor of Memorial Hall, which had been fitted up as it now appears in accordance with the care- planning of Professor Bacon. The number of bound volumes has increased from 13,700 in 1888 to over 28,ooo in 1901. The Library as it exists today is his monument. His presence and suggestion inspired the remarkable esprit de corps of his student assistants, and his tactful advice brought the resources of the Library within reach of many an untrained 34 GDHITICS B. JBHCOI1-1111 fIlSCl1IOICl8lTl-GOl1Iil1ll6O reader. Besides what was done in the departments directly under his care, Professor Bacon gave to general interests much thought and effort. He sought to make the Library useful in every possible way to the college, to students, to -Alumni. He was jealous of the reputation of Beloit on the athletic Held and in the arena of intercollegiate oratory and debate, and entered enthusiastically into the men's preparation for the contests. His time was at the disposal of every man whon1 he could help. Very many of Beloit's grad- uates look back with especial gratitude to him as guide, philosopher and friend. The charm of his conversational powers, the readiness of his response to whoever came to him for counsel, the interest with which he followed the Alumni into their after careers, all endeared him to many hearts. LastQSeptember, from the hospital, Professor Bacon was driven to the door of Memo- rial Hall, and looked for the last time upon the walls within which so 11111011 of his work had been done. He ordered his wheel-chair, so familiar to those who frequented the Library, to be taken up stairs, he was not to use it again. But that' invalidls chair repre- sents the most heroic aspect of his life, his ten years' struggle with spinal disease, mysteri- ous, painful, incurable. Too long, perhaps, for his own good, he carried on his wonted work, now walking with a cane, then with crutches, finally depending upon the aid of the students who carried him so tenderly from carriage to couch or chair. Every form of treatment that promised relief he faithfully tried, the limitations which the progress of the disease imposed he accepted, but he refused to allow it to conquer his spirit. It would be a paradox to say that this physical disability enabled Professor Bacon to do more than he could have done without it, but it certainly enabled him to do some things which he could not else have done. It was the controlling force, for those later years, in determining his character and infiuence. It called out that courage of endurance which was the admiration of all who saw him. It nerved him to more strenuous activity himself, and increased his hold upon others. It tested the fiber of his faith, and devel- oped that tenacity of purpose which sustained him in the unequal iight. The long struggle is ended. But the memory of his energetic personality, his pene- trating mind, his incisive teaching, his heroic bravery, will long perpetuate his influence for good. R. C. CHAPIN. 1 35 R. MALCOLM W. WALLAC E, who succeeded to the chair of English Literature and Rhetoric at Beloit in 1899, was born at Vtfindsor, Ontario, in 1873. Some idea of the breadth and liberality of his training for the profession upon which he has entered, may be gained from a brief statement of his work as an undergraduate and later as a graduate student. His preparatory course was taken at the Windsor Collegiate Institute, located near his home. After completing his preparatory studies he entered the University of Torontoiin 1892, and was graduated from that institution in 1896. While at Toronto he studied along the lines of his future work, specializing in English Literature and in Modern Languages. After graduation he pursued a course in pedagogy for one year in the Ontario Nor- mal College for teachers. ' In 1897 he received a fellowship in the department of English Literature at Chicago University, the appointment being based upon the excellence of his work at Toronto. His graduate work at Chicago comprised two years, at the end of which period he received the degree of Ph.D. from the university. His thesis on The Influence of Plautus on the English Dramatic Literature of the Sixteenth Century, is being published in book form by Chicago University. His call to Beloit came just at the close of his residence at Chicago and he entered upon his duties as professor in September, 1899. In addition to his thorough training, Dr. W'allace has demonstrated by his work at Beloit that he is a teacher and lecturer of unusual ability. He has entirely reorganized his department by the introduction Of new courses and new methods of instruction. The new impulse thus given to the study of English in the college has resulted in large acces- sions to the department in the number of students pursuing courses in literature, and in the growth of the department to one of the largest and strongest in the institution. The work of Dr. Wallace in bringing the English department thoroughly up to modern standards, is one of the marked features in the advance made by the college in recent years. Its importance to the future of the institution is recognized by all who have followed the great changes in the methods of teaching English in the past few years and the increased demands made for training in English by college students here and elsewhere. In addition to his department work, Dr. Wallace has shown his ability in dealing with matters which concern the broader phases of college life. His interest in athletics, in secondary education and in all matters pertaining to the general welfare of the institution, indicate that in him Beloit has not only secured an able and thoroughly trained department professor, but one who will do much to advance her interests in all spheres of college activity. 36 BIALCOLM' XV. XVALLACE Jamie Faculty Definitions JE CAPILLARITY-A simple but rather neat physical phenomenon, which usually keeps science teachers humping, to have their classes understand, all hands 'round. Place several glass tubes into a bucket of water. By tinkering with them a while We may assume three sets of surfaces-glass-air, glass-water, and water-air. If the temperature of the water is iniinity, a fourth interesting feature-hot-air-is introduced. Let O be the mean elevation of the liquid in the tube, above the liquid surface outside, and M the pressure. The entire surface tension LIJ around the interior of the tube where the film is attached is 2 11 w T, w being the water outside of the tube. Let 0 be the angle of contact which the perimeter of the meniscus makes with the water-glass surface, if it is clean. Then by hypothesis I 2l'IwT6059:g5z'n1Iffz Cooking this up, gives us zgssinfifvf-I-i25:QTOMj2t which is the amount of work performed by the water-air surface in cleaning the surface of the glass. Now, iz! a ray of polarized light be passed through the bottom of the tube, at an angle parallel to the arc of the meniscus, then by Avogardo's law the longitudinal vibra- tions Will prance around transversely until the force of the vviggler peters out, when the angle of inclination becomes negative acceleration and follows the regular law of motion on the plane of the ecliptic. Hence this is called capillary attraction, or capillarity. T. A. S.

If you will pardon a personal reference, my edition of the Elivabethan drama will cover this point more fully. M. VV. W. A THEBIE-A more or less happy effort on the part of a student to write something intelligible and produce a literatesque effect at the same time. After being written, the production is analyzed by an expert, and all ambitious attempts and marks of genius rather carefully eradicated, and the student is warned. Sometimes one warning is sufhcient, but it is almost impossible to make a thing like this effective. L. M.

The fading S1111- set light falls through the colored panes and is lost in the shadows of the great oak arches. The gilded pipes peal forth a melody that stirs the heart's profoundest depth. Stops and pedals seem forgotten as the music swells and dies away, to rise again more noble than before. Longing, joy, memories of years far past, sound in that harmony. The grey-haired master at the keys speaks through his instrument of the soul up-reaching toward the Eternal. There is a softer strain, a few lingering, reverent chords, and the Worshipful musician has fin- ished. The twilight grows dim, darkness settles slowly down, and over all the listening throng broods a spirit of infinite peace. tiff p a WF - I V , - W ' . ff 'QV Q A -1- ,.

Porter and Arthur H. Smith H EARLY forty years ago two young men met in the Freshman Class at Beloit College, and at once started on a comradeship for life, suggest- Q2 ing classical examples of friendship, but having deeper roots and richer fruitage than were attainable in the ancient world. Both were fortunate 1 in their ancestry, each of them belonginglto a family which included eminent literary men and educators, as well as men who had rendered distinguished service in the Christian ministry. Both young men threw themselves with zest and energy into the activities of college life 5 they graduated, one as valedictorian, the other as salutatorian of their class. They pursued their theological studies together, and then came back to Beloit to be ordained together for missionary work in the great empire of China. In the spring of i898 a small company of Americans were making their way in house-boats up the Grand Canal of North China, swinging along the great curves of the waterway under the alter- nate propulsion of the wind against long, narrow sails, and of coolies tug- ging along-shore at ropes hung from the mast head. The organizing and animating spirit of our voyage was one of those Beloit graduates of 1867, Henry D. Porter, now uniting in him- self the alertness and bovzhommie of the college boy with the large and chastened thought of the man of wide experience and devoted service. Of buoyant spirit, of gentle and eager cour- tesy, his eyes kindling with the enthusi- asni of ideas crowding for expression, HENRY D. PORTER he formed a striking contrast to the impassive Chinese around him. Quiet as was the journey, every hour was full of interest, especially those when we lingered about Dr. Porter's table after the simple but well-relished meals, to talk of events and outlooks in both hemi- spheres, and those when walking along the banks of the canal toward evening, our con- versation usually centering in Beloit, while we watched the sun sinking over the vast and teeming plain. At the end of our five days' journey from Tientsin we found waiting to welcome us the other of our Beloit men of '67, Dr. Arthur H. Smith, whose solid figure, heavy grey beard and keen dark eyes gave him the appearance of being at least governor of the pro- vince. If he could have been, events in Shantung would have had a very different course during the past eighteen months I 44 Henry D. T'orter and .Arthur H. Smith-Continued In Chinese cart, in jinricksha and on donkey-back, our party soon cover the inter- vening six miles of dust-swept plain and enter the mission compound of Pang Chuang. We are welcomed into a one-story Chinese house, where the tasteful surroundings, and especially the large pictures on the wall of President Chapin, Dr. Jeremiah Porter and the college chapel, unite Asia and America in welcome but almost bewildering association. More than once while in other parts of China we had heard Pang Chuang referred to as an ideal mission station. This estimate we regarded as fully justified as we looked in- to its varied activities, educational, evangelistic, medical, and felt the high and fine spirit everywhere pervading the work. Fortunate indeed would any mission be which shared the united labors of three such men as these two Beloit graduates and Dr. Peck, fa physician in Beloit before going to Chinaj, who has charge of the hospital, aided by Dr. Porter, who combines the duties of physician with those of a superintending missionary. In this hospital not less than sixteen thousand to twenty thousand cases are treated annually, many of them involving major operations. l should like to speak of the equally notable share in the work sustained by the ladies of the mission, were it not aside from the purpose of this sketch Dr. Arthur Smith is one of those brilliant men it is one's privilege oc- casionally to meet, whose ordinary conversation is sparkling and stimu- lating, and whose epigramatic and witty discourse, keen discernment into hid- den relationships of things, and acumen in discussing public affairs, are as fasci- nating as they are rare. He has attained international recognition as a writer. He is one of those fortunate authors,' remarked a book-seller in Shanghai to me, whose books in a second-hand book - shop sometimes bring higher ARTHUR H, SMITH prices than was charged for the work at nrst' '-the edition being exhausted while the demand continued. Archibald Colquhoun, the famous correspondent of the London Times and author of China in Transition,'l stated in an article published last year that the profoundest analysis ever made of Chinese character was the work of an American missionary, Arthur H. Smith. It was extremely interesting to attend the quarterly conference in which these mis- sionaries n1et their score of Chinese evangelists, to hear their reports and counsel them in their work. Many of them were evidently men of strength of intellect and characterg their confidence in their American leaders and reliance upon their judgment and larger experience were noticeable and gratifying. Not less interesting was it to be present in the great congregation on Sunday, and note the attention to the preaching of able native pastors and the reverent participation in the communion service. A very few days in Pang Chuang and its outlying villages could not fail to give anyone a new impression of the wide zones of influence of Beloit College, and an increased admiration for the splendid way in which Beloit ideals are worked out into practical expression all around the world.

S. F. The grace and M--,AW aptness of phrase that characterized these writings of college days have not been lost in later years, and Horace Spencer Fiske is today one of Beloit's ablest representatives in the Held of letters. Believing with wise men before and since that a course at Beloit College was the best possible preparation for any calling, Mr. Fiske came here from his home in Anamosa, Iowa, entering the Academy in 1877, and being graduated at the head of his class in 1882. In college he was conspicuous in literary activities,winninga prize declamation, represent- ing Wisconsin at the Inter-State Contest, and serving on the editorial board of the Round Table. After graduation he pursued his literary studies at the University of Michigan, and in 1885 received the degree of Master of Arts, both from the University and from his Alma Mater, in whose behalf he delivered the Master's Oration at the Commencement exercises of that year. He occupied for six years the chair of civics and political economy in the State Normal School at Platteville, XVis., and after a year abroad assumed his present position, that of Lecturer on English Literature in the Ex- tension Division of the University of Chicago. The time spent in travel and study in Europe brought to Mr. Fiske a helpful acquaintance with isuch men as Professors Dowden, Skeat and Gollancz. It also gave suggestions that bore fruit in some of his best poems, as the Shakespearean Sonnet that was published in tl1e Cenlufjv Magazine. The influences that shaped the development of Mr. Fiske's literary gifts may be traced in his work, which shows the impress of college training, university specialization, and familiarity with the historic culture of the old world, upon a mind in full sympathy, with the youthful vigor of the 'West. Such work has not lacked appreciation. The large demand for his extension lec- tures shows their popularity, and his books and articles have won high commendation from exacting critics. Especially is this true of the volume published in 1899 under the title, T he Ballad of Manila Bay and Other Verses, which brought together poems covering a wide range of subject, and exhibiting easy command of many diversities of poetic form. Besides these verses, Mr. Fiske has been a contributor to the Century, the Nation, Brush and Pencil, the Midland Mouilzly, and has furnished serial articles for the Chicago dailies. With Professor S. H. Clark, of the University of Chicago, he edited a series of higher literary readers for the State of Indiana. He has uow in press an illus- trated work, Chicago in Picture and Poetry. Last spring he joined a group of the younger men in the universities of the Northwest in establishing the World Review of 46 HORACE SPENCER FISKE Horace Jpencer Fiske-Continued Chicago, and has been tasting the sweets of strenuous editorial toil, having the manage- ment of the departments of Literature and Art and Current Events. His writings combine easy grace of manner with aptness and originality of phrase and thought. The Wide range of his themes, reaching from Milton's mulberry-tree at Cani- bridge to Stagg's pigskin on Marshall Field, suggests the breadth of sympathy and the sensitiveness of appreciation which characterize the man. The subtle discernment of unappreciated beauties reveals the artistic temperament, which can transngure even the smoke of Chicago into clouds df literary glory. He loves good company, whether he finds it in canine friendships, among college associates, or in the books that bring back the heroes of the past. But he sets a high standard for the men whom he admires. He recognizes Ollly genuine manhood, whether in the bravery of DeWey's gunners, or in the statesmanship of Gladstone. Not the least interesting fact regarding Mr. Fiske, to readers of the CODEX, is the readiness with which he has always given his best at the call of Beloit. As Alumni poet, as contributor to CODEX and Round Table, as sonueteer at the Semi-Centennial, his gifts have always been generously employed in the service of Alma Mater, and she has rejoiced to find herself honored in the Wider recognition accorded by the world without to the work of his pen. , R- C.

You don't know Paracelsus ? Good stars, he's out of sight I He said there ain't a single thing in this whole cosmic plan That don't in some outlandish fashion enter into man. If you should see an avalanche, just ripping up the dirt, Go sliding down a mountain-side, some critter will get hurt. So light out quick and scamper off, your moments may be fewg That rearing, tearing avalanche is Nineteen Hundred Two. If thunders roar and torrents pour and winds go whirling round And knock off giant branches that litter up the ground, Those limbs are canes, those breezes gasps, those roars what both sides said And those great pelting raindrops the tears the Freshies shed. It won't take long for foliage to shrivel up and dieg That's what befell those fresh green leaves that Weren't even dry. When 1902 came out in force and raked them up so clean That 1901 turned sick at heart and vanished off the scene. You see that streaking comet a-whizzing through the air? That's Big Bill M. at Buffalog he's pretty middling fair. And that young eruditish whale a-sporting in the sea Is our main hope and promise-he calls himself H. B. If two young pines or myrtle trees Qwhichever ones you'd rutherj, Grow side by side so intertwined you can't tell one from t'other, That's Alice S. and Edith C.-the one's the other's second, In class, at chapel or at meals, Whatever way itts reckoned. That effervescent geyser a-spouting to the skies Is China's last donation, the kind that does or dies. The north star guides the compass which makes the world go straightg Beloit's the world, the needle's us, Beaubien's the star-he's great I 59 Jenior Class Poem-Continued YVhen IQO2 goes picnicking, has parties and such thingsg T hat's Nature in her merry mood, that's Nature when she singsg But when Dame Nature sighs and groans and shakes the whole creation, That's IQO2 a-struggling through some examination. XVhen drizzling rains make sad the earth and winds sigh through the tre And wail and moan through knot-holes, when icy clutches freezeg That's faculty and college mourning the day next June When 1902 with fond adieu leaves them to Fate at noon. ll 'V ' Q kj Ns l 3 60 CS History of 1902 T U A CHRONICLE or THE TRIBE OF '02, WHEREIN IS SET ITORTH THE CHARACTER AND ACHIEVEMENTS OF THE TRIBE DURING ITS SOJOURN IN THE LAND OF STUDENTS, FROMI THE FIRST EVEN UNTO THE 1,REsENT DAY. in ? -f A OW it came to pass fifty and three years after the founding of that seat ' ' of learning which now standeth on a high place lying east of the river Rock and nigh unto the village called Beloit, that in tlIe ninth month, on the twelfth day of the month, as the various tribes were going up to be inscribed in the great book of the tribes, they were joined by a band of unknown youths and maidens, strangers in tlIe land, and these likewise Went up to be inscribed. Now the scribe is a silent man and of a grave countenance and it befell tlIat among the strangers the more timid feared him, but without Cause, as' was thereafter brought to their knowledge. And they all performed the required ceremonies according as they are Written in the book of the law of the Faculty, and were thus duly inscribed. Now before many days had passed the Strangers gathered themselves together and formed one tribe and they called their name the Tribe of '02 and they made a cov- enant and swore allegiance each to the others in all matters pertaining to the tribe. And they said: Verily, this is a land flowing with wisdom and truth. Let us therofore abide here and possess ourselves of these great possessions. And they abode, and they chose certain of their number to become rulers in the tribe. And after these things had come to pass, the ruler wlIiclI they had chosen called tlIe tribe together, and when they were all assembled, he lifted up his voice and said: Behold, I see we are in the midst of a stiff-necked people, given unto vanity and self- praise. Now our young men are of noble stature, and our maidens are comely and fair to look upon, and it is in nowise Ht that these other tribes should scorn. us, least of all that one which in derision calls us Freshmen and whose members are themselves called Sophomores, which being interpreted is ' the egotistical! Now, therefore, let us up and measure our skill with theirs and try whether we cannot excel in some points and peradventure gain honor for ourselves and for our tribe. And they did as the ruler said, and it befell that Sometimes they prevailed, but often they were vanquished, and yet not indeed vanquished inasmuch as they strove faithfully and with a perfect heart. Now when the time was fully come and all things had been prepared, in the second month of their sojourn i1I the land of their adoption, the tribe of '02 assembled tlIen1- selves for a feast. Verily, eye had not seen nor tongue tasted, neither had there been conceived in the thought of the Sophomores, a feast like unto this one. Now this was in the Second Hlolltll of their sojourn, and it came to pass thereafter that the tribe devoted itself to the pursuit of knowledge and the attainment of wisdom, 61 History of 1902-Continued until, in that season when the grass springeth up and the day waxeth long, they spake to one another, come now, let us once more drink and be merry. And it came to pass that they went out from the walled villages into the forest, and they called the feast which they ate there the Class Picnic, or in our language, The Feast of the Tribe. As they were in the first year of their sojourn, gay when gaiety was required and serious when seriousness was required, and at all times striving toward the goal of their high calling for wisdom, so are they even unto this day. ' And, behold, the days of their sojourn are almost ended, for it has come to pass that they are now called Seniors and it doth not yet appear what they shall be.

Nuf f- B YVO years have elapsed since the historian laid down his pen after writing K ,.-' the history of the class of IQO3, which was then only a few weeks old. ' ' ' At the end of that history it was announced that the purpose of the K class was to become leaders in the recitation room, on the platform ' and on the athletic Held. This record will attempt to show how well y J .. S Q K the class has hx-ed up to its ideals. A few people knew that the members of the class who had been in Prep had attained a reputation for standing by their classmates, but this knowledge could not show them what would be the future actions of the college class. The Freshman year, however, demonstrated that 1903 in college was as strong as '99 had been in Prep. '02 fell again before our football team with a score of I7 to 0. I900'S crack football team, the champion of the previous year, was unable to score on our light team, and as they re- fused to play the tie off on the scheduled day, the season ended with the championship nominally unsettled, although with a moral victory for the Freshmen. The following spring our baseball team won the championship by defeating the victors of the former year-and, indeed every other team in the Held. Such was the course of our first year in sanctioned athletics. The strange lack of class scraps was due to the masterly inactivity of the Sophomores, who, since they felt sure that they could not win anything, wisely took the best course open to them and did not try. Our social life was one of great pleasure to all of us. lVe went to the usual parties and survived, with as few flunks afterwards as could be expected. The crowning event of a Freshrnan's social life-the banquet-was lacking in the history of our hrst year. 'We felt a little bashful about inviting the faculty and several city policemen to our feast, as a preceding Freshman class had done, and accordingly the feed was indefinitely post- poned. In its place, however, we had the memorable Janesville sleighride,', in which we toiled a weary fourteen miles to the great metropolis of Rock County and then, like the man in the story, toiled back again, and there was not a person in all that crowd who could have found snow enough to make a good-sized snowball. The opening of our Sophomore year was even more propitious than that of our Fresh- man year. XVe had become at last an acknowledged force in college life. Our football team again tied for the championship, Although crippled by the loss of several of our best men, we won the second cane-rush against superior numbers. Class scraps were in- variably decided in our favor. The puerile attempts of T904 to hang out iiags were always defeated. Some Sophomores seemed always awake in time to foil all efforts on the part of the Freshmen to do bright deeds. All the attempts of 1903, however, to get off roasts on the infants were successful. Our procs were an undisputed success. Some members of 1904 still remember the little stroll of six or seven miles which they took as a punish- ment for trying to tear down our procs. The Sophomore banquet, the first i11 IQO3,S history, was perfect. The members of the class, whom 1904 especially desired, easily arrived at the feast, and the two members who had been picked up, were kindly returned by their abductors, who lacked the nerve to keep them. 1904 might just as well have spared its pity, for we would have squared matters without having to ask the aid of either upper classmen or policemen. How we laugh as we think of the noble Freslimen sneaking down to the Goodwin House immedi- ately after chapel and leaving their girls to get there as best they could. S1 The History of 1903-Continued Class scraps ended with the last banquet. The rest of the year was spent in quiet pursuits. In the spring our baseball team won the championship as usual. That same term we picnicked at Big Hill in response to the invitation of Professor E. G. Smith. That picnic showed again that E. G. has a heart in proportion to the rest of himself and that we of 1903 have a good place in it. In the literary life of Beloit we have not been untrue to our general reputation. Our team of debaters won the annual Beloit-Ripon Freshman debate. the only intercollegiate contest in which under classmen can really show their abilities, and neither literary societies nor Round Table have hesitated to call on us when in need of good material. The last two years form the real test of literary ability and these two years lie yet before us. This history has shown that 1903 is a leading class. On the credit side of its account it sees an undefeated football team, an undefeated baseball team, two cane-rushes and every class scrap in its history. IQOS gives two rnen to the college track, three to the college baseball and four to the college football team. Now in our junior year our Held of activity has widened. We have a reputation to sustain. XV e shall miss some of our good men and Women whom we have lost, but we are still strong enough to make our spirit clearly felt in the college life. Our ambition and our hope is to raise our class so high that the day will never come when 1903 stands for different principles than those of Old Beloit.

Historian History of 1904 l J! in g -f ISTORY of the Class of I904,,' did I say? And that in a few hundred qs, - ' ' A words! Impossible ! Unpictured punkness, gigantic greenness, frightful feminosityfl so said the Soph in his polemical prevarication and abominable alliteration, when 1904 was still composed of Fresh- men. NVe accept the characterization, with several grains of allow- ance for the source. Our feminosity is our pride, our greenness was all imaginary-unless, perchance, 'o3, foretold those glaucous numerals which adorned sidewalk, fence and telephone-pole in witness of the fact that the Freshmen had been out, our punkness-we will let you judge for yourself. The only reason vvhy we did not vvin the cane-rush was that 1903 happened to have more hands on the cane, a few more touchdowns and the football game would have been ours. As for baseball, we refer to the voluminous silence of the University of 'Wisconsin on this topic. As for other things, do you remember how, on an October night when 1903 had met on Broad Street before adjourning sine die to the Goodwin House, one member of that distinguished body preferred to visit a section of our frightful feminosity rather than the bountiful table surrounded by loving classmates? bn this same night, another member chose to spend the evening in collecting comfozar dam of the alluvial plains along Turtle Creek. Certainly no one has forgotten that two Weeks after these events the dining room of the aforementioned hostelry was bedecked with Freshman colors and that 1904 was present to a nian-nay, even to a co-ed, despite the kind, though futile, atten- tions of several Sophomores, who, finding their exertions impotent in legitimate warfare, turned their attention toward inanimate objects such as hats and overcoats. Nor was our punkness confined to our first year's career. VVe can even now vividly recall how, one night shortly after the opening of the term, three bands of young men crept forth from the shadow of the Art Hall and, equipped with whitewash brushes, rolls of paper and pails of paint, scattered in all directions. 'When these bands met again, just as dawn was appearing, they all brought the report, No Freshies awake yet. VVe can 'mnly mention the skirmishes which took place, as the Youngsters realized too late that there had been something doing. Next on the programme of that dayys Work came the part which 1905 would fain for- get. The Freshmen realized that an attack 'made while they were unarmed would be attended with hazardous possibilities, and in their sciolisni they fondly told themselves that they needed canes. YVe will pass over the story of the rush-they departed with fractional portions of their canes. NVith paternal sympathy for 1905, we make no mention of their sensations when.they saw their congratulations over the early destruction of the procs changed to a mourning daean as they beheld the inail-carriers, laden with a certain publication called The Pilof, QI History of 1904-Continued go from house to house, spreading joy for upper classmen and Preps, but sorrow and calamity for 1905. From these tales one might infer that life has been all fun and class fights for us. 1904 has been implicated in some experiences which were harsh and bitter. Timmy lived through one year with us and departedg Spongy followed suitg Richie had had us for one week, when he began to call attention to the fact that the history course ended with the first semester. QDid he mean anything by that deep sigh of relief which always followed the 2l1lI1Oll11CSI1lCl1t?, We have dodged the Codex yearg we have been not too late to profit by elective rhetoricals and augmented cutting privilegesg we have tried a formal cane-rushg we have been allowed an informal one with no library fees attached. But can such things con- tinue? We are hopeful, and let our feminosity continue to be as frightful, our punkness as unpictured, our greenness as gigantic as they may, we will still go on crescendo e amfleranda until - well, who can say?

Nineteen Four! ,U If I should tell the story of Nought-four, Beloit's glory, I should weary you with rhyming and should fill too many pagesg For since we've come to college, you will certainly acknowledge That we've gained a reputation as the VVonder of the ages. Wlieii first this school we entered, all our brawu and brain were centered In acquiring information that our folks had sent us for, But the Sophs became so troublesome that we were forced to hustle some, And so we let our studies go and ineditated war. YVe fought them fierce and furious, with nothing more injurious Than green paint, rigs and other things that college fellows knowg And thus we kept them guessing, till we had them all confessing That for green, unlearned Freshmen, we were certainly not slow. Next we tried some uiidniofht feeding which we thought we all were needing, Z5 DI G And we let the Sophs admire us as they hung around the doorg There we boasted and we toasted, and Tim's Math. we simply roasted, But we proved the class that did most was our class of Nineteen Four. Well, we passed inatriculation without taking a vacation, Then we buckled down to lessons, just to show what we could dog My I but when we came to study, we all proved to everybody, By ourilearned ways and double A's, we knew a thing or two. But the thing that gave us most renown in college and around the town, XVas our success at parties, where our girls were wont to shineg For besides their scrapping power and their cleverness with flour, They one and all knew how to give their classmates quite a timef 93 Viive la Beloit! Nineteen Four!- Continued And thus we went through Freshman year a-stabbing there and flunking h We tackled Math. and lit on top, though many heads were split, Old Horace and Herodotus and L' Spongy's stuffs were snaps for us, And last of all, but not the least, we triumphed over Lit. l This year they call us Sophomoresg wetre still all loyal Nineteen Fours, XVe're foxy, and we're mighty wise, as Freshmen have discoveredg Our procs quite took them by surprise, the cane-rush opened up their eyes, Our banquet simply took the prize ffrom which they,ve not recovered, J Now that they're fully disciplined and we have got our second wind, We're going in to set them all a studious exampleg In TO1l1IDjViS Math. each one's a whale, in chemistry we never fail, The French verb does not make us pale-our brains are fully ample. And so we'll go through college adding to our store of knowledge Whatever they can teach us that we do not know alreadyg For whenever there's no show in town, or lecturer of great renown, Or ball game, feed, or doings, we are always going to study. Then when at last we're Seniors and have passed a pleasant four years In these dear old college precincts which we call our Alma Mater, YVe will take our bits of leather and we'll all pass on together, And the school, we know, will miss us when they congregate here later. Yes, we'll all depart together for we've found out that whatever We are going to do, the only way's to all go in at onceg That's what's made our class so famous and has caused folks to proclaim As the class that's so successful when we do our little stunts. Now we bid you all good morrow, though it gives us secret sorrow, For we've other things to manage than this keeping our own score, In two years again we'll greet you, and we hope that when we meet you, You will join with us in shouting 4' Vive la Beloit!

H-XY A ' CES Freshman Class Poem E I Sing, Goddess, sing of that glorious class, That has been but a few weeks in collegeg That's o'ercome all opponents, astonished the Profs, And shown such a power of knowledge. Il Math, with its terrors, has just fallen flat, For our excellent brains have O'Gl'CO111Q even thatg The languages too, never bother a bit, And we are e'er victors in conflict with Lit. III Although we in studies so greatly excel, 'We hold a ine place in athletics as wellg V For welve men of great strength on the ,varsity team And we're cut out for victors, as clearly is seen. IV Then here's to the Class of Nineteen N ought Five, YVho's future's already assuredg YVe will sing all her vict'ries and join in her praise Till our life on this earth shall be ended. 93 ,History of 1905 M ERE it not for unborn generations the class of I9o5 would need no historian, for the deeds of this 'fthe strongest class that ever entered Beloit, will live long in the memories of the faculty, of the Seniors V ' and the juniors, and the longest in the memories of the class of 1904. XVe are gathered at the beginning of the fall term of '01, seventy- two strong. From all climes have we come and our accomplishments are varied. There are the high-school graduates who have not yet given up their hopes of reforming the worldg there are the thankful few who have survived Papa's Greek testsg the species known as Whales is here in unusual numbers. There are a few plodders who burn their midnight oil over German and Logarithms, there is the usual number of those who flunk and stab with an enviable grace and without so much as an apologetic blush. All these elements go to make up a whole, which, it cannot be denied, is destined to shine with great brilliancy in the various activities of college life. Wheii first we gathered in the chapel and realized the power of our numbers and our importance to the welfare of the college, our awe of the faculty and our reverence for the upper classmen began to diminish, and our fear of the Sophomores had dwindled down to minus infinity, In the breast of each Freshman there seemed to have been smouldering a spark of class spirit which at the first breath of hostility, burst into an unquenchable flame. The class of 1904, although realizing its incompetency, felt that it must follow precedent, and accordingly posted the usual procs. It was well for the college that the Freshmen rose up in their might and tore the offending procs from posts, sidewalks and barns. For, had the public been allowed to digest and absorb the contents of those bills, it might have made the mistake of thinking that the wit and the literary ability of the class of 'o4 were representative of the college, and Beloit's 'fair fame might have sustained greater injury than all the wild stories of Prep hazing could bring upon it. It is hardly necessary to relate the events which crowded so fast, one upon another, after we had removed the exhibitions of 'o4's genius. Everyone knows how the Fresh- men, burning to avenge the wrong that the college had suffered, met a bunch of Sopho- mores and rolled them in the dustg how, having provided themselves with canes, they Haunted them before the eyes of 'o4, how they finally met the Sophs on the campus and during the two herce skirmishes which ensued, more than held their own, When the girls of '04 saw their fellow-classmen suffering and vainly struggling over the canes, they were stirred with a blind desire for vengeance. In the safe proportion of sixteen to one they attacked a bewildered Freshman girl and while one of their number sat on the victim the others danced around her. An evidence of the respect which the ladies of the Sophomore class have forthe prowess of 'o5 is the fact that the Freshman girl was to the Sophomore girl very much as was David to Goliath. The time for such things as these, however, is now past. The edict has gone forth 99 History of 1905-Continued and the Sophoniores are safe. The Freshmen greatly regret the fact that the faculty, wishing to save ,O4 from further disasters, has asked that there be no more exhibitions of class spirit. Space prevents the Historian from expatiating further upon the merits of 1905. This class has, however, only just begun to make its history. Four years hence the one who tells its story will have many an interesting tale to recount of obstacles overcome, of triumphs Well-earned, of honors attained.

In 1885 the Sophomores of the Classical Department, under Professor Emerson, translated the Antigone of Sophocles into English verse and read the play before a small invited audience, in the old Greek room, in Middle College. The exercise was found so profitable, that during the next three years the Eumenides, Prometheus and Septem Contra Thebes, all of Aeschylus, were rendered in the same way. In 1889 the Dionysiac spirit would be satisfied only with hills and forests, and as there was no Mount Cithaeron accessible, the Sophomores of that year, with a few invited guests, manned rowboats, in lieu of triremes, and sailed up to the Lower Quarry, where the drama was presented under the open sky, as in Athens. Costumes Qsheetsj were used for the first time in this rendition. In 1892 a second translation of the Antigone was read in Professor Pearson's parlors, and in 1892 the Iphigenia in Tauris, at the home of President Eaton. By this time the play had developed to such an extent that wider attention was attracted by the annual readings, and in 1893 and 1894 it was thought best to permit larger audiences, though still by invita- tion only. During these years the Alcestis and the Antigone were rendered on the stage of Pearsons Hall, and the presentation took on more of the form it has at present, in point of costume and character. The presentation of the Oedipus Rex, in 1895, marks an important epoch in Beloit Greek play. In this year the play was for the first time open to the general public, being given in Wilson's Opera House, and admission being charged. The whole classical department took part. The superb drama, with its powerful motive, was so well rendered that at the request of the Chicago alumni, the play was repeated before a large audience in Central Music Hall, in Chicago. Charles Winter Wood, as Oedipus in this rendition, will always be remembered by those who have followed the course of the Greek play in Beloit. PR OFESS OR VVRIGHT Since 1895 the play has been rendered from the Opera House stage and admission- has been charged. There has been spirited effort on the part of each class to surpass the record of the preceding classes, of course, but never has mere financial success been made the end of the play. The Hrst effort has always been to secure a good, metrical translation into English, one that would be a real addition to Beloit literature, the next has been to mal: e the characters, the motives and the words of the Greek masters live before a present-day audience. That the classes have been successful in this endeavor is shown by the fact that the Greek Play is considered one of the most popular events that take place in the Opera House. In 1896 the Electra of Euripides was rendered, in 1897 Iphegenia in Tauris, and in 1898 a new translation of the Alcestis. In 1899 the Antigone was presented for the third 105 Greek Drama in Beloit-Continued time, the whole classical department and the Musical Association taking part. In 1900 women marched for the first time in the chorus, and sang the strophes and antistrophes. It was feared by some that this violation of Greek tradition would detract from the dis- tinctively Greek character of the play, but the results were entirely satisfactory, both from the standpoint of the audience and of the director. In 1901, after a careful study of Greek theatre structure, the Class of IQO3 decided to present their play, the Electra of Sophocles, from the two-level stage, which archeologists generally concede was the form used in Greece, The principal characters of the play occupied this upper and smaller stage, thus standing out in relief before the background, while the chorus of women performed its evolutions on the lower and larger. The inno- vation met with general favor, and this forni of stage will probably-be used in future renditions. One thing inseparably connected with the Greek drama in Beloit, is its music. The earlier plays were given with such musical adaptations as were prepared by Mr. W. I. Andruss, now professor of music at Pomona College, and by other students. The music to Oedipus Rex, given in 1895, was based upon the ancient Greek tones or modes, with the addition of the modern Greek national air, and a Williams College song which had a special fitness. Iphigenia in Tauris included, besides original -music from the director, a composition of Mr. Fred Rose and a striking adaptation from Mendelssohn's St. Paul, in which the voices of women were heard for the nrst time in these plays. The music of Alcestis was varied, including Gluck's Overture to the Opera, original music in the Phrygian mode, a quaint lyric used by the peasants of Oberammergau in their decen- nial passion play, and arrangements from Beethoven and Max Bruch. The Antigone of Sophocles was given with Mendelssohn's music entire. Iphigenia in Aulis was characterized by original adaptations of Slavic music, with Gluck's overture as prelude. PROFESSOR ALLEN In the Electra of Sophocles, the burden of the music fell upon the female chorus, the adaptation being from Mendelssohn, Schumann, Smart, Schubert and Rheinberger, the whole cou- cluding with the Greek national air by a mixed chorus. D I No sketch of the development of Greek drama rendition in Beloit would be complete without a tribute to Professor lVright, who has made that development possible. There is an amount of labor and responsibility involved in the directorship of a play of which scarcely any individual in the class is aware. Although Professor Wright has never urged the taking up of a play, and, indeed, has told many a class to first deliberate carefully, yet he has never hesitated to take the onus of the directorship upon himself, and by his patience,'dram atic talent and broad Greek scholarship, has always made the play a success But he has done more than this. He has made all that is worthy in the Greek mind and life, live to his pupils. No student who has ever had a part in any of the dramas, whether as protagonist or chorus member, will be quite the same after his being has been thrilled by the royal grace of Sophocles, the humanity of Euripides or IO6 Greek Drama in Beloit-Continued the thunder of Aeschylus. Even if some forget their Greek texts, these impressions, which Professor NVright made possible, will never be effaced. And there is one other, a broad-minded, cultured gentleman, with the sympathy of a true musician and the interpretative vision of a seer, to whom the Greek Play will always be indebted. Professor Allen has every year put the full power of his wonderful talent into the arrangement of the accompaniment, and whether he has used simple Greek mode or Mendelssohnls harmony, the result has always been a perfect interpreta- tion of the drama's motives. The helpfulness of his strong, artistic personality has made chorus-membership an eagerly sought for prize. May he long continue to move the hearts of Beloit students and audiences by the melodies with which his soul is iilled. fa ld 'sr IO7 Ghe Electra of Sophocles 4 When King Agamemnon returns from the Trojan war as a victor, he is basely murdered at his palace in Mycenae by his wife, Clytenmestra, and her paramour, Aegisthus, who then together rule the Mycenaean state. The princess, Electra, daughter of Agamemnon, remains in the palace, ill treated and despised, awaiting the day when her 'brother Orestes shall return from distant Phocis, where he has been long an exile, hoping that both may then take vengeance on the wicked queen for their father's death, and that the throne may be restored to the rightful heir, Orestes. SCENE BEFORE THE ROYAL GATES OF MYCENAE., PROLOGUE. Orestes, with his friend Pylades and his old tutor, returns to the palace from which he was rescued when a child, at the time of his father's murder. They plan to enter the .palace Orestes bids the tutor go in boldly. 4' Make use to them of some such tale as this: Thou art a Phocian, sent by Phanoteus- He is the friendliest ally they have. Next tell them with an oath this farther lie : Orestes, racing in the Pythian games, From out his whirling car was flung and killed By awful accident. Thus tell thy tale. As they retire Electra enters. Though a princess, her clothes are more ragged than any servantls, her eyes are dim from weeping, her cheeks hollow with grief. In uttei despondency she bewails her lot, and prays the gods Send back to me now my long-promised brother, For I lean on his promise and hope in none other, And no longer alone have I strength to prevail 'Gainst the terrible weight in the opposite scale Of my heaviest woe and desire.

Electra vainly attempts to persuade her sister, Chrysothemis, to aid in a scheme of vengeance against the murderers, but her sister refuses, replying : it it in these perils it seems good to me To sail close reefed, nor weather bitter storms, Since I lack power to do the harm I would. She tells Electra that a dungeon awaits her if she will not cease from her stubborn grief. Electra, in a passion, tears up the garlands which Chrysothemis is bearing to Aga1nemnon's tomb at Clytemnestra's command, and gives a t -ken of her own. 4' Give him this unkempt hair And unadorned girdle. it it When young Orestes with victorious might, Unhurt shall trample under foot our foes, lVe shall revere our sire with richer gifts F1RsT STASIMON. The chorus foretells the awful vengeance soon to come against the house of Pelops. Ah, the blood of the king is on the ground And it never can forget. Ah, the ancient sword-blade did the wound And it never can forget SECOND Eprsomi. Clytemnestra enters and berates Electra for her stubbornness. To her insolent Words her daughter replies : it ii it what right Hadst thou to slay my father? By what law? Beware, for thou by binding man with law Mayst bring upon thyself the law's remorse. The old tutor, in strategy, brings a false story of the death of Orestes in a chariot race. Electra mourns piteously for her brother and the chorus seeks to comfort her. El. Trouble and painf' Cho.

Electra, convinced that her vengeance is a holy duty, spurns her sister's suggestion and bids her go and reveal the plot to her base mother. iog The Electra of Jopfzocles-Continued SECOND STASIMON.

' Orestes and Pylades enter, asking the way to the palace, bearing with them the urn supposed to contain the ashes of Orestes. Electra in her agony fails to recognize her brother at hrst, nor does he realize that this grief-stricken maiden with dishevelled hair and hollow eyes is his sister. He hears her sad soliloquy however. recognizes her, and reveals himself. She can hardly ind expression for her joy as she clasps him in hear embrace. El. Oh light most dear. 011 Most dear, I can repeat. El. Oh voice, thou coniest at last? ' O11 l come at last. EZ. 'L Art thou in my embrace ? Or. As now, so ever. The old tutor warns them that everything is ready within, for the avengers. Orestes and Pylades enter the palace in search of the queen. THIRD S'ras1MoN. The chorus sings of the near approach of vengeance. 4' Behold the curse moves on apaceg His mouth spues out the blood of harsh, unholy strife E'en now beneath this roof the fury-hounds do creep, Inevitable avengers on each wicked life. 'Twill not be long before the visions of my sleep To grim realities give place. Exonos. The shrieks of the queen show that the avengers have fulfilled one part of their mission. Aegisthus still remains. He enters from the chase, arrogant in new confidence awakened by the report of Orestes' death, and blusteringly demands from Electra a full account of the news from Phocis. Meanwhile Orestes and Pylades win over the guards. Aegisthus steps to the bier within the wide-flung doors, thinking it contains Orestes' corpse. Gloating in anticipation over the body of the hated heir, he lifts the napkin and sees the stark face of Clytemnestra. Orestes then reveals himself and prepares to fulfill the last part of his mission. OV. 'tt it Move on. Aeg. Lead on.', Or. Before nie thou must walk. Aeg. Lest I escape thee? Off. Nay, but lest thou get The death thou lik est-I'll foil thee there. Such justice ought to fall to all who love To practice crime, against the law's decree- Swift death.

FERRIS . , Secretary H- D- SMITH Treasurer E A HE Beloit College Christian Association has for the one reason of its existence that of keeping 1l1Cl'1lS attention fixed on jesus Christ. In ,Q fax the absorption of other college interests or the misleading of too little fe? Q, philosophy, students tend to forget the nobility of the Christ-life. E G 3, By assembling as Christians and listening to men who know Christ, I l - fresh conviction and purpose is formed. By daily Bible study, Christ talks to each heart. By the association of men with Christ as co- workers, He becomes a power in their lives. When He is so contemplated, right lives must be the result. The ideal of the Association is Christ, the gist of whose teaching, it holds, is that the strong man is never stronger than when he is aiding the weak one, and that man is never freer than when led by God. The most powerful athlete, with the clearest brain, tempered by the purest heart, expressing himself by the most graceful sociability, is everywhere the best man, and is so considered by the Association. He who measures up to this ideal, however, knows no rest until the man at his side and the brother in Africa and in India also know the beauty of the Christ-life. In living out its ideal and principles, the Association manages an Employment Bureau, which gives Work to needy studentsg conducts Bible classes under competent teachers, offers a missionary course, holds weekly meetings, at which out-of-town speakers are often present, and as one of its niost helpful services, welcomes and assists new students when they come to college in the fall. The Association came into being with the organization in 1849 of the Beloit Mis- sionary Societyf' In 1880, the nanie was changed to the Beloit College Y. M. C. A. and Missionary Society. In 1888 the present Association formed under a new constitu- tion. In 1886 a Volunteer Band, consisting of students who have pledged themselves to become foreign missionaries, was organized. This year the Association feels that it has taken a progressive step in securing headquarters at Chapin Hall. T39 l , 'ir-W V fig .,',! V ' I fx N, fry A ee fiffte ,qs r . ,. .. l lllllflly . .

Treasurer Iv W y HE Young Woman s Christian Association of Beloit College, which was E organized in 1895, includes at present i11 its membership a good pro- 4 C2254 49 ci. portion of the women of the college. The fundamental idea of the 3.3 h Association is that the Christian side of student life should receive the attention which its importance demands: that every young woman G should put herself in sympathy with the Christian life of the collegeg that she should make thorough work a part of her Christian duty, and honor jesus Christ as her Lord and Master. An important branch of the Association work, which is being particularly emphasized, is systematic Bible study. Groups corresponding to the college classes are formed and a careful study is made of the life of Christ, based upon Sharman's Harmony of the Gospels. The Association is also represented in the Volunteer Band of the college. The work of the Beloit Association is kept in touch with outside influence by the Conference at Lake Geneva, to which delegates are sent each year. The new plans, the fresh enthusiasm and the inspiration to a deeper spiritual life, which are brought back from these conferences year by year, have definitely advanced the standard of the Work of the Association. 140 , X , ' rg' 46 -fl N . u W:gQ,,u - ' 4' . ef ei , 1 - 55? ,if i . .ef J ix H- S V ,ff eff ffl. fi sig, f wise Officers E.

Pianist AQ yj C113 HE Beloit College Musical Association was organized in November 1897. 5 'Tl ft Qian Since that time it has filled a large place in the college life. The Gai. Association has a constant membership of about sixty voices. Its ' library contains five hundred and twenty-two bound volumes of music I .J ,QD and one thousand and forty unbound folios. The Work of the Associatio11 is similar to that of other choral societies. Two years ago the musical dramas of Wagner were given in the following order: Rienzi, Flying Dutchrnanf' Tannhauser,'l Lohengrin, Tristan and Isolde, Die Meistersinger. The rendition of these dramas received great Commendation, not only from critics in Beloit, but also from ma11y who came from neighboring cities to hear them, and from musical journals. Last year three concerts were given. The first was a mixed pro- gram of organ and violin numbers with the Gallia of Gounod as the principal part. The second concert was similar to the iirst with 'tFair Ellen by Bruch as the center piece. At the last concert were given The Miller's XVooing by Fanning, The Earl Kingl' by Schubert and Clarice of Ebersteinu by Reinberger. All these concerts were given to the public without any admission fee. Voluntary contributions were received from any who were disposed to give. These concerts have given an opportunity to students and citizens to hear and appreciate the works of the best composers. Besides aiding in giving the musical parts of the last three Greek Dramas, the Asso- ciation has given its assistance to the vesper services and many special occasions, rendering the following compositions: At Eventidefl Andersong Ave Maria, Festgesang by Mendelssohng Faust Finale, t'Chorus of Revellersf' 'tSanctus, Gounodg Gipsy Life, Schumanng Golden Legend, Sunrise Chorusjl Sullivan, and some others. For this year two concerts have been planned, one for the rendition of the 'tMessiah, at Christmas time, and the other of the Creation, to be given the latter part ofthe college year. The credit for the unqualified success of the Association, as well as for the prominent place it occupies in college life, is due to Prof. Allen. He has made many sacrinces and labored unceasingly that the Association might be a means of profit to the members and a source of pleasure and instruction in the best musical taste to all who have ears to hear.

PERPETRATORS OF DEED UNKNOWN While returning from a Greek play rehearsal Prof. 1- was set upon by a number of men, presumably professors, and corn- pelled to don a Grecian track-team costume and give a dress, or rather undress, rehearsal for the ffl benefit of the delighted spectators. X After this the professor, still clad in K F his classic, but somewhat chilly cos- -17. . tuine, was forced to niount a fence 'Zak' post and to deliver extracts from Long- xklsy V ij- l fellow's Hiawatha and Deinosthenes' X Y f Phillipics. 'A . 6 This is the Climax of a series of 2. outrages perpetrated this year by the 1 faculty, although heretofore the jokes have consisted merely in forcing the gentlemen to saw sticks of wood from the presidents wood-pile. Now, how- ever, the students are aroused and punishment is promised for the offenders. 5 Prof, l is very popular with the members of the faculty and is inclined to take the matter as a joke, but he, nevertheless, states that he is very willing to assist justice in its course.

This period of two years has been the-mosti fruitful in our history. These years have been the natural outcomerofi a decade of ,J hard painstaking work No one who has watched' carefully the , . growth of Beloit athletics has been surprised that they blossomed out G U so vigorously and even gloriously. Hard, consistent work in the kind of soil found at Beloit will produce wonderful results. The patient work,of 'the teams, both first and secondg the careful oversight of the coachg the financial aid 1of the alumnig the loyal support of the students, may be counted as the chief' factors inbri-nging about our success in Western athletics. One of the marked features of the past two years is the rapid rise-of 'the track team to a prominent position in the inter-collegiate meets. Track andfield events had not received the attention by our athletes that they merited. Some careful work has been done, but this chiefly in preparation for meets with local' Wisconsin colleges. Aivery few trained for these eventsg the great body of students ignored them, not even lending the support of their presence when meets were held on Keep Field. Happily, in the last two years, matters have mended for the betterg the track tean1 has blazed out in glory, which we hope is not meteoric, and Beloit has won a recognized placesin 'Western field events as she had already won an assured place in football and baseball. Our ball teams have continued without interruption of' ai serious sort, their remark- able career. I am convinced that there is no college east or west- that can ,furnish such a record as Beloit is able to show, especially against powerful university--rivals. I have often feared that the tide would turn and that we would lose our prestige, but our pro- gress continues without serious rebuff. We lose games, this is to be expected. It should be remembered that we play most of our games with University teamsg we should expect to lose a majority of these and should not feel discomfited oradishearterrerl, when beaten by schools that have ten times our numbers. When an Amherst or VVi'lliams football team goes againts Yale or Harvard there is no expectation- among the students that a victory will be won or even a score made. There is no straining after effects that are un- attainable. This should be our attitude at Beloit. We play goodball, let us be satisfied with that. Beloit's success in athletics is phenomenal, but' it is not without explanation. In the first place, it is the Beloit spirit. Our numbers are few andthe diliculties that face a coach in organizing a good team are very great on account of , this very paucity of num- bers. There has never been a lack of enthusiasm, never aqwant of college spirit, but it has been difhcult to get men enough out to make thoroughitraining -possible, 'What is it that has helped to offset our small numbers? Nothing elsefbutrthe indomitable Beloit spirit. As long as that spirit exists here as it has in the -'past we may be sure of prestige in athletic affairs. It is difficult to explain what this.spi.ri-tisggit islargely pluck and T54 Beloit Athletics During Past Two Years-Continued determination, combined with a spirit of self-sacrifice. There are no great honors, no adulation such as is shown to athletes in the large universities. There is little but self- sacritice and hard knocks for the man who fights for Beloit's glory on athletic fields. But the men who go through with this kind of discipline are invincible in spite of few numbers and inadequate gymnasium facilities. This fall I have been delighted to see a number of evidences that this Beloit spirit is as strong as ever. Let 1116 cite but two cases that have come to my notice. Mr, Adkins. has a right arm that is worth a great deal more than ordinary arms, but he has voluntarily gone into the football eleven to strengthen the line, taking the risk of injury, which would mean much to him, not to recount other possibilities. Mr. C. VV. Smith, in spite' of a trephined skull, has taken his place in the team, though it is at unusual risk that he does so, he felt that his presence was needed there, and that is incentive enough. I might mention other instances of like devotion. NVe should not forget that it is such devotion that wins our games. Another reason for Beloit's success, in spite of handicaps, is the personnel of the teams. These men not only train hard but conscientiously. They- abstain from late hours, from rich foods, from anything that might possibly detract from their strength, they deny themselves, that the college may hold up its head in the athletic world. It is no sinecure to be a member of a team, especially to be captain or man- ager of a team, and be responsible for all of the careful preparation demanded. 'We owe much to men like Bunge, Beaton, E. B. Brown and E. S. Merrill, not alone for the- careful oversight of the men, but because the personnel of the teams is kept on a high plane. We need not fear for the future if the same high ideals shall continue to animate: Beloit athletes, GEO. L.

' spell-bound by the words of wisdom which flowed in a mighty torrent from the eloquent professor's lips. Suddenly the tumult ceased. The hearts of the listeners stood still. Why this silence, and the recitation hour only half gone ? Did you feel it? the professor exclaimed. It was a slight earthquake. There it is again. Undoubtedly it was a slight shock. Such shocks are frequently felt in japan? etc., etc., rearn after ream. The class gave a sigh of relief but spoke not. Had they given utterance to their thoughts they would have said that such shocks are not strictly of japanese origin, and that had the worthy scientist watched the feet of some of the students he might have seen that the cause of the earthquake was much nearer and more easily understood than any internal convulsions of the earth. In fact the whole world does not quake every ti111e the floor of the chemistry room quivers. 164 ACADEMY FQOTBALL TEAM 1900 Academy Football Team C. W. BOARDMAN . . Captain JAMES MILLER . Mauacfer R.

Track Work exer- A cises every muscle in the body, strengthens especially those vital ' fr--' organs, the heart and lungs, and works off the animal spiritsf' which in the days of our fathers resulted in such pranks as nlling the college bell with water, to be overturned upon the head of our beloved John Pfeffer, and the throwing downstairs of stoves and other articles of furniture, in old North college. In the early 90's track athletics were simply the expression of a desire for amusement, and the craving to beat someone. Little was done to make the sport scientinc and earnest. Each year there was a day set apart, :when the Whole college adjourned to the athletic field, and there spent the day in good-natured rivalry. But with the development of systematic methods and rules for training, there came a decrease in interest, since it was usually known before hand that a certain few would carry off the honors. The Field Day was accordingly abolished, and in 1895 we entered for the lirst time into relations with outside colleges, sending men to the Westerii Intercollegiate Meet at Chicago. Although we won no points, we were satisfied that we should later on. Our nrst dual meet was held with Lawrence University in the spring of ,97. XVe were defeated, but our rise since then has been steady and marked. In YQ7 T. F. Riggs made the semi-prophetic statement: It may happen that Beloit within a few years, will be holding as high a place in this branch of athletics as she holds today in baseball and football, and how gladly we now realize that this prophesy has been fulfilled, and that this hitherto neglected branch has been put on a par with the rest of our athletics. With the return of 1. W. Hollister, himself an experienced track athlete, our interest was increased, and a meet with Northwestern made, us feel that we were advancing rapidly. When college opened in the fall of 1900, we found that nearly all the material of our ,QQ team was enrolled, and enthusiasm waxed apace. Indoor meets for the late winter, and dual meets for the spring were promised, and to cap the climax, there was the Intercollegiate in Chicago on June first. In all these events we were successful be- yond our hopes. Our meet with Wiscoiisiii, though a defeat, was a pleasant surprise in showing us that we had the goods In our meet with Northwestern we were more successful, and won by a fair score. Then came the Conference Intercollegiate Meet in Chicago, and here it was that Beloit realized her fondest hopes in track athletics. She was tied for fourth place, with only three of the West's great universities above her. Truly, this was a fitting fulnllment of the prophesy of '98, The work that Beloit men have done in this department, just hints at its possibilities. There are new and lasting laurels to be won for our school in track sport, if the student 178 Track Athletics in Beloit-Continued body will take the matter seriously to heart and give the squad its support. Many a man who would make a good runner with proper training, dawdles away his hour of exercise in some unprofitable Way, instead of coming out on the track team during the winter months and at least making an attempt to find out what is in him. We need men, and if more will make what seems a sacrifice for the sake of the track team, old Beloit's future is bright indeed. E. S. MERRILL. sq ' ? Ng.: N,lJ:uN4jt Kg?

R., '03 194 The Jtrqnge Case of the Jenks Brothers U :Zn 9 LARENCE and Jerome Jenks were brothers. No one could give any 0 reason for this fact except that Eliphalet Jenks, one of the early settlers in the Big Sandy Valley, was the father of both, and that their Q , last name was Jenks. ' . . G ' As the little Jenkses became big Jenkses they made it obvious even 0 i i 0 to the unobserving, that although they were brothers, they differed from one another even as the kind-faced cows in the farmyard differed from the grizzly swine which were eating their way into the packing house with awful rapidity. Clarence Jenks never forgot that his name was Clarence, that his father, E. Jenks, had been county supervisor of Squash county for a dozen terms, that by dint of working as long as it was light and by foreclosing all the mortgages he could gather in, his father had become possessor of about all the land drained by the Big Sandy river, that while the earth was being formed this certain portion was set aside for the uses, and misuses of Clarence Percy Jenks as soon as he should Hnally claim it. As for Jerome, it mattered little to him whether his name was Jerome or Bill. He was early impressed with his usefulness about the Jenks homestead, and rotated in his sphere in the busy manner of a buzz-saw. He knew the bovine and equestrian population on the farm by their first names, when he was old enough to read the Squash County Advocate he was able to figure how much money he would have to lend to the unstable farmers in the vicinity before he could turn them out of their own front gates, and add their forties and eighties to his father's domain. Thus while Clarence was breaking into society at Pleasant Valley, the county seat, on the strong reputation that Supervisor Jenks had gained, and was rapidly becoming so valuable a member that his name always appeared among those presentj' at the village functions, Jerome was riding around with father as he made things uncomfortable for the neighbors, serving ejection notices and advice as to the proper manner of voting at the next supervisoral election. For notwithstanding his unpopularity as Eliphalet Jenks, as Supervisor Jenks he was sure to see that the county got its bridges and schoolhouses con- structed with as little expense as any county in the state. In the little stone schoolhouse located on the edge of the Jenks farm, Where brains are not essential to progress, Jenks C., and Jenks J., mastered the course of study with equal speed and were one day startled with the information that they had Hnished. When they had gathered around the family hearth one evening, the elder Jenks said 1 My sons, I reckon you are ready to start in life. I will give you each 32500 a year for four years, and at the end of that time I expect you to prove to me that you have used it wisely. Mr. Jenks knew that his sons had formed their plans months before, and warded off any danger of a family insurrection by furnishing the funds and care- fully avoiding suggestions. T95 Gbe Strange Case of the Jenks Brothers-Continued Jerome was too busy thinking how many promising young shoats and calves could be purchased for 319500 to rest well that night, while Clarence also spent a sleepless night figuring out what college offered the most flattering inducements to a promising youth such as he. By breakfast time he had decided on the state university because Tillie Tompkins, a girl whom he knew in town, had told him that she was going to the univer- sity too, and had said, 'WVouldn't it be just lovely if we both Went there. On the morning that Clarence departed for the station with his trunks marked, Clarence Percy Jenks, State University, Jerome, jauntily attired in cowhide boots and home-made overalls walked out to the back forty to fix up the fences so that neighbor Plunkett's cattle could not visit the Jen ks' corn without leaving their cards at the front gate. Clarence felt sorry for Jerome as he thought of the lonesome time the unambitious brother would have on the farm, going the same old round for days and weeks. Jerome hoped that Clarence would make himself heard of, and said he would try to visit him in the fall if he 'finished the ploughing early. Tillie Tompkins had told Clarence that a young man whose father was supervisor, and who was a real swell-looking fellow himself,'l was sure to be sought after by every- body in the university town, for she hinted that people were just sitting around the station all the while waiting for such fellows to arrive. Accordingly as Clarence occupied a seat in a chair-car with a dozen other fellows apparently bound for the same university, he was just a little bit disappointed that they did not fall over each other in their efforts to learn his name, and to beg to be allowed to carry his dress-suit case. He spent his time reading in the college catalogue about the fraternities, and found the picture of a chapter house which suited him exactly and which he decided he would enter in case all the fraternity men were agreeable to him. Just when his dreams about his popularity gave promise of being nothing more, the train stopped at a little junction, and a dozen bright-faced, smiling college boys boarded the train. As they marched down the aisle, searching every face, they seemed to notice that Clarence was interested in their movements, and swooped down upon him. Going to the University ? asked the chorus of twelve boys. 'fYes. My father, Supervisor Jenks of Pleasant Valley, decided to send me here after I told him what a Hue place it was. I suppose you are the fraternity fellows. I have decided that I would like to go in with you, as my father has given me to understand that I need not want for anything as long as he has a good-sized roll in the Farmers' Bank of Pleasant Valley. Seems pretty fresh, doesn't he?', said one of the delegation of fraternity men to the others. Yes, he does, was the reply, but let's stay by him. Maybe it will wear off. Clarence's hopes regarding the excitement which his arrival at the university town would create were apparently fulfilled, as he never once thought that he was not the only student who alighted at the station, and he supposed that the several hundred youths in 196 Gfze Jtrange Case of the Jenks Brothers-Continued sweaters came to greet him. He was quickly bundled into a carriage and spirited away to a fraternity house, where he was told that he would meet some of his classmates. In the course of the afternoon the boys all learned the supervisoral record of Eliphalet Jenks, the number of acres in the Jenks homestead, and just how many Clarence Jenks would possess when the festal occasion of his arrival at manhood was celebrated. No great enthusiasm was expressed when Clarence expatiated on these facts and when he departed for his quarters in the college dormitory at night no one said anything about his coming again. Nevertheless the first articles which left his trunk were stationery, pen and ink, which were used in telling mother how Clarence had decided to become a fraternity man, and how sorry he was that Jerome hadn't gumptionfenough to go to col lege and make something of himself also , After the first few days Clarence commenced to have misgivings. No matter how many times he slapped the fraternity men on the shoulders or addressed them by a por- tion of their front or rear names, no one said anything about desiring him to wear apledge button. He spent a large portion of his freshman year waiting for the invitation which never came. Besides he was pained to 110te that Tillie Tompkins seemed to wave him aside whenever he tried to recall those halcyon days at Pleasant Valley. lilhen Clarence reviewed the results of the first year's work before leaving for home, he discovered that he was a member of the Periclean debating society and of the college choir, that he had participated in the cane-rush and had had the honor of being forcibly detained from the class banquet. A fraternity pin was not yet visible on his waistcoat, and he was not as near to one as when he first arrived at the university. i XVhen Clarence returned home Jerome met him at the train with a rubber-tired trap and a spanking span of bays, which he had purchased with the proceeds of the sale of a small drove of cattle. On the way home they passed through rich fields of corn, which Jerome said that he had planted on shares with his father. Clarence was told that Jerome had cleared up an even 52,000 while he was spending his 3500, and that it had been invested in North Dakota land, on which the unambitious brother intended to settle after he had the fall harvest in his pocket-book. The last three years of Clarence Jenks' college career were as uneventful as the fresh- man semesters had been, the important happening during that time being his graduation. His honors required little space in the college catalogue for the telling, and he left the institution minus 32,000 and ahead his diploma. ln the meantime Jerome who had settled in that portion of North Dakota where men of brains were few, quickly displayed his common sense and his qualities for leadership, and when Clarence was writing his senior thesis, Jerome was being elected to congress. As nothing else presented itself, Clarence was glad to accept one-fourth of Jerome's annual salary to act as his private secretary. This tale goes to show that the good old game about,the country boy who went to college and the brother who staid at l1ome, does not always end with the score in favor of the seeker after education. 197 Hepaticas D Patsy, little Patsy, How I love you, sweet, As your dainty blossoms Come the Spring to greet.

B., '04 234 A Frat for a Freshman .E A V5 Cuz HE Freshman had been three days at school. Before he had left his 7 '15 QQ Cx Q2 little home town, his mind had bee11 crowded with vague rumors of CN FS . fraternities, those wonderful and mysterious organizations which T sl- . . . . 9 were said to exist sub rosa at the college to which he was going. t t J JL C ,Q Now he stood, on a chill night, out in a deserted country with his Ci: 659 I i eyes partially blindfolded and his hands tied behind him. Vague, shadowy ngures Hitted around him, and muffled whispers came now and then to his straining ears. The proceedings were quite different fro111 those to which he had looked forward. Only that morning, indeed, he had been taken mysteriously aside and had been informed that he was chosen for the Freshman member of AAE. The pledge must be immediate and the utmost secrecy was necessary. Elated at his good fortune, he had pledged, and here he was, being, as he was informed, initiated. He had stood on his head leaning against a tree, and spoken his high school grad- uating oration to the accompaniment of a running fire of remarks by his tormentors. He had climbed a tree blindfolded, had lost his footing, and after having fallen for at least te11 seconds, had rolled to the foot of a steep bank, where he had picked himself up and humbly taken all the muttered scoldings of his masters. He had stood against a tree and heard the fierce growlings of a bull dog approach nearer and nearer, while he, poor Freshman, shook with terror. There had been a wild snarl, a dash, he had been knocked over. He had even felt the fangs of the brute-no, the blindfold had slipped down and he could see no brute, nothing except the prickling, thorny underbrush into which he had fallen, and the moonless sky above him. From this bed of thorns his escort led, nay, rather dragged, the victim to a wierd cave in which every sound was dismally echoed and re-echoed. Here uncanny lights pierced the blindfold and strange rumblings brought messages of terror to the Fresh- man's acute ears. He was seated in a pool of water and the bandage was snatched from his eyes. Glimmerings of unholy light coming from hidden corners flickered over the tall, gaunt, masked forms which were reclining about the cavern, among bleached bones. One spectre-like being, clad in long robes, arose and stood towering high above the candi- date. Brothers, it said, we have here a Freshman. Groans were heard on all sides. It lies with us to nttingly dispose of this unfortunate mortal. Mutterings of Let him die ! arose on every hand. 205 .H Frat for a Freshman-Continued First let us give to him the sacred injunctions of our most holy order. Freshman, arise ! It now becomes my painful duty to inform you that you do not and can not by any possibilitybelong to the AAE ! But for your comfort in this, your deep aiiiiction, be it known to you, that AAE are letters which represent the Greelc words 'iA'q8pu.-'qeobg Aupavovpkvq 'E-raupeia, meaning the Freshmen Hazing Society! We are Sophomores! There is no longer an AAE ! Freshman, depart ! The Freshman, amid a derisive shout, was pushed out of the door of the cave, and arrived home about sunrise, cold, wet and sore, but wiser in the ways of colleges. T. R.

A nation paused and hushed its noisy marts, The wheels of industry were stilled by grief g Around the casket of the niartyred chief Men wept, unsharned, the tears of broken hearts Uncounted lips had moved in fervent prayer In vain, for fainter grew the fluttering breath- VVe saw his manly face set cold in death, And felt our hearts grow hopeless with despair. O, might not God have spared this chosen son? Have Law and Statehood need of martyrs still? When many shirk obedience, must one Ato11e for all ? Such is the rule, and man Has had his being at the price of man : A Christ was slaughtered at a 'judas' will. 208 O. E. M., 'og Lament of the Druids J! Night deepens in the forest as we move lfVith measured step in Cl13.1'l1li3d circle round The Hre of oak-wood old. A clear red blaze Now rises starward, fed by costly fuel- Thy very heart, thou king of all the oaks, Breathing thine ancient spirit forth in flame. We hear the forest round us sigh and inoang In distant Caverns booms the mighty seag We join with woodland voices manifold To mourn thy fallen powerg and while we chant In magic circle round thy sacred flame YVe read our doom in glowing embers writ. Alas for influence no longer oursg Our power of swaying men through oracles Is goneg thy ruin, symbol of its fall. Hopeless we stand before thee now, where once Our subjects bent the knee in listening To hear thy softly whispered prophecies. G. R. S., '03 209 Ji Man's a Man For a' That J! A HE class of IQOS has kindly asked me to write a little of my past and -F present life. I was born in Frankfort-on-the-Main, November 5, 1833. My father was born in 1796, my mother in 1800. My father was a M G V, soldier, one of the body-guard, under Napoleon, and was one of the few survivors in his famous Retreat from Moscow. After the death of my father in 1840, nine children were left for my mother to 'care forg I was the seventh child and was seven years old when my father died. My father having lost his wealth some time before his death, left my mother in -straightened circumstances, so I was taken and cared for by an aunt. I was compelled to repeat the Catechism, the Lord's Prayer and the Ten Commandments every morning, which should have kept me out of temptation's way. In my aunt's yard grew a fine pear tree, bearing ine, luscious, yellow fruit. One day my aunt said to me: . john, if you can walk under that pear tree and resist the temptation of picking the pears, you will overcome one of the many temptations in your pathway. But of course, being like other boys, it was impossible to pass under that tree without picking and tasting the fruit, especially when my aunt wasn't around. For three and a half years I lived with my aunt. At the end of that time she informed me that she was getting too old to care for me, and that I was also getting old for in other words, I was becoming unmanageablej and had better take care of myself. So I started out for myself, still continuing to go to school in the day time and working until I2 o'clock at night at the shoe-maker's trade. At seventeen years of age I had a longing for freedom, as the time was approaching when I would be drafted into the army. I was determined not to be drafted in. At that time I read a great deal in the papers about America, and from the glowing accounts I determined America should be my future home. Not having any money I borrowed 5150 from my brother to pay my passage to New York. From New York I came to Chicago, but staid there only a few months, when I answered an ad in the paper to drive an old lady to Beloit. And here I have been ever since with the exception of four years, that time being spent as foreman of the shoe department in the State Reform School at Waukesha, Wis. President Chapin offered me the janitorship of Beloit College and I accepted the position, having now spent more than half my life in the college. Professor Porter and myself at the present time are the only men left who started in so many years ago. We have watched with anxious eyes the many struggles of the college. It has been along iight, but the battle has been won, and today we stand a college known throughout the whole world. 210 K AO! I , .V Y- -at ' X P w . 1 'fE:',:4.' . :-'wj 21 .. :'. Q 7 . V1 u .. . V, ,A-Ae , s t A Man's a Man For a' That -Continued Many changes have been going on during that time. Many of the old professors have gone to their reward, and before many years we shall follow them. Many tricks have been played during these years, and if recorded would fill many volumes, but of all the tricks played I always came out on the top of the heap. My only regret is that you, the class of 1903, were not obliged to say the Catechism, repeat the Lord's Prayer and tl1e Ten Commandments every morning. If you had, what a glorious class you would have been !N But still you have a bright and hopeful future before you. Improve the opportunities as they come. As, to my present life, it is hardly necessary to speak at length, as I have mingled among you for the past three years as a class. I will leave you to draw your conclusions and think what you will. J. B. PFEFFER. x N i Q - 15 ' ' CJ . 2l'? Olympian Victors U I stood on the slope of Kronos gray, above the Oly1npian plain, Where swift Alpheus still pursues his vanishing love in vain, And wondered deep at the picture rare revealed by the German spade- A picture aglow on history's page with colors that never fade. For I saw before me the Stadium, alive with flying feet, And banked humanity gazing hard at the naked runners fleet 3 And every city's son at prayer that his own shall win the race, While a life's ambition flushes warm on every athlete's face. And off toward the curve of the Cladeus, in the sacred Altis walls, Rose the pillars of that temple vast whose god forever calls The victor to bend at his throne, and be crowned with Hercules' olive bough And go forth with the fame of his glory bound about his leafy brow. And then, methought, amid the throng the gray Herodotus read, As young Thucydides followed rapt his history's golden thread 5 And soft in the temple's shadow the high-browed Plato walked, While girt with a wondering multitude the sovereign Socrates talked. Then slow past my eye through the Altis a stately procession moved, With the psalm of the Victor leading on the athletes that stood approved, Up the steps of the temple and on to the feet of Zeus, Where the purpled judges placed the crowns Athena alone can produce. And up from the free-born races, the lovers of beauty and strength, From the trembling western river through the Altis' sacred length, A tide of resounding plaudits swelled full to old Kronos' feet, And played in the porch. of Echo with a murmur long and sweet. -HORACE SPENCER FISKE 213 Indian Jammer J! The fairies that the Indian children knew, Fled their accustomed haunts long years ago: 'Where many a brave in warfare drew the bow, Or roved with silent feet as hunters do. There is a time of year, when earth would woo Her people back to happy days they know, XVho live at Naturels heartq the sun hangs low, And dreaming earth smiles up to dreaming blue. 'Tis then the elf-sprites come from wood and hill, To haunt again the ground they loved of old. The shocks of maize in hazy, russet gold, Seem phantom wigwams, dwelling places, till A dusky sun no longer guards their play, And Indian Summer time has passed away. E.

Faults will be found' which might have been rectiied by later thought. We have tried, however, to give the various phases of college activity, both in their humorous and in their more serious aspects. The success of the attempt must be left to the judgment of the readers. The editors regret very much that it was found impossible to devote greater space to a more extended tribute to the life and influence of Professor Charles A. Bacon, but his death occurred after the arrangement of the material had nnally been decided upon, and when rnuch of the manuscript was already in the hands of the publishers.

A recess of one Week occurs between the end of each quarter and the beginning of the next. The general courserof instruction requires four years of study in residence, with a minimum attendance upon three quarters of each year. A student may begin his college Work on the first day of any quarter, and may continue in residence for as many successive quarters as he desires. Credit will not be allowed, however, for more than three consecutive quarters. At least 45 months must elapse between the date of a first matriculation and the date of graduation. All of the work of the Freshman and Sophomore years in Anatomy, both gross and microscopic, including Embryology and Neurology, in Physiology, Physiological Chemistry, in Chemistry and Pharmacology, and in Pathology and Bacteriology, is, fatter July first, 19013, given at the Univer- sity of Chicago in the spacious Hull Biological Laboratories and the Kent Chemical Laboratory. Elective courses in these branches are offered both at the University and at Rush Medical College, to students of the Junior and Senior classes and to physicians. Aside from these courses, the re- sources of Rush Medical College with its Laboratories, Dispensaries and Hospitals, are devoted to the teaching of the clinical branches.

On every side are heard statements of satisfaction at the magnanimous generos- ity shown by the faculty and trustees in providing the student body with an edifice which will answer its purpose much more satisfac- torily than the old gymnasium ever did in its infancy,when the floors were nice and new, when the lockers locked, when the shower baths did not become choked with ice, and when the ample equipments for physical culture consisted of something more than a half-dozen or so Indian clubs and dumb-bells, a shaky pair of parallel bars and some broken weights and pulleys. ' The exercises which took place when the building was com- pleted, were as elaborate as the gymnasium itself. The Hon. Burdette Fletcher Williams, of the class of 1902, presided and delivered the speech of welcome. He reviewed the eiforts of the college author- ities to obtain the means for erecting this magnificent structure and spoke of the generous way in which all appeals had been responded to. He told how at a meeting of the class of 1902, he himself, although opposed to all unnecessary expenditures, had approved the plan of donating everything connected with the new building except the picture. , He closed by saying that, as one stroke of good for- tune is seldom unaccompanied by another, he now hoped 1902 would win a football game. A promising young Sub-junior Prep spoke next. He delivered a message from the genial principal of the academy. This message was in substance an expression of approval of the course events had taken. The principal said it was a young man's duty do grow mentally and morally but hrst of all physically, proving this state- ment by showing in an elaborate discussion that a baby must grow in stature before he is sufficiently developed to take the moral train- ing of a cane-rush. He stated that the academy was conducted on this basis, and that he approved of all kinds of athletics, particularly wrestling matches between different classes, when it is too dark to recognize the participants. His message concluded with the hope that the gymnasium would encourage an interest in all such sports. Several of the leading athletes of the college also spoke, but it was reserved for john W. Hollister to make the closing remarks. He expressed a little surprise at the result of the labors of both faculty and students. To quote his own worcls,'tI always thought we would get something of this kind, but I never expected such good quality of paper in the picturef' The meeting broke up with cheers for those who had aided in the realization of so many fond hopes. Such was the dedication of the new gymnasium. 230 THOS. G. LAWLER, PRES,T. E. H. KEELER, SEC7Y AND TREAs. T. D. REBER, VICE PRES7T.

Thousands of students make their entire college expenses selling our goods during vacations. K ' We employ an ever increasing number of salesmen in the United States, Canada, Great Britain, and in all other important countries of the world. . Quite a large number of teachers and college graduates have taken up the sale of Stereoscopic Photographs as a PERMANENT BUSINESS -their life-work. The Stereoscopic business is being advanced more and more along educational lines. . A There are much greater opportunities for a young man who engages in a business that is developing, than in one which has attained its full growth and which, therefore, can offer but limited possibilities. The threefold aim of a conscientious salesman should be to secure goods which he can recom- mend, which he can handle profitably, and at the same time furnish to his patrons at a reason- able price. To accomplish these three objects We have labored, and are satistied that we have attained them. For particulars, please address the oihce nearest you. UNDERWOOD G!
