Lytle 11 FOREWORD Another June has come marking the close of a year which has afforded the following material for our College Annual. Our desire has been to present, in the following pages, a fair and impartial representation of our Alma Mater in every aspect of college life. We have desired to acquaint our readers with the sentiment and opinion of the whole institution, rather than the prejudices and personal feelings of any individual class or faction. We do not present this volume because of its literary and artistic value, but because it lias felt the vital touch of those with whom we have associated during our college course. We hope that in the years which will come its pages may call to memory the pleasant days spent at Dear Old Bethany. If in the days to come, when these leaves are turned again in memory of past years, this record of Bethany happenings shall serve to rewaken pleasant recollections of good times gone by, and to revive the happy scenes of under- graduate days, we shall feel that our efforts have not gone imrewarded. Formerly our Annual has been -published under the name, The Kodak, but this year it has been changed to Bctliaiiiaii. because this name is deemed more dignified and appropriate. Credit for suggesting and arranging the new name is due the following per- sons: Prof. M. A. Stewart, Mr. W. L. Linville and Mr. Herbert Smith. With greetings and best wishes we present to our readers the Bethanian of 1909. THE EDITORS. 12 JT WINTER SCENE ON THE CAMPUS. Faculty Thomas E. CramblET, A.M., LL.D President William B.

The first year is always the most trying in the whole career of a class, for it is then the test for valor, for endurance, and for pluck, is made. The class, destined to be the Seniors of ' 09, made a most creditable showing at this trying period, and the promise it gave as a Freshman class has been fully realized as the years passed by. We look back over our past record with pride. The battle has been to the strong, and though there have been defeats mixed with the victories, and discour- agements among the properities, we feel that as a class, we have something to boast about. It means something to be the largest class ever graduated from Kethany College ; and it means a vast deal more to be the Centennial class — the Class of 1909. The future looks bright to us — the open road of life stretches before us an alluring invitation. The regret which is natural at leaving these College halls, grown dear to us, is overbalanced by the eagerness we feel to get in line with the great army of the world ' s workers. Our farewell to Bethany will be sad necessarily — but each of us leave with the firm determination to be an honor to our dear Alma Alater. So farewell to Bethany — Bethany of the sunlit hills and mountain-tops. We shall ever keep thy memory green in our hearts — and though years may pass er ' e we see thee again, thy influence shall live in our lives. S. A. S.

Out of chaos and confusion I have come as a messenger of peace and good will. Glad tidings do I bring unto the world. If you do not desire my aid I will politely thrust myself upon you. Gifted with poetry and song I esteem my- self one of Bethany ' s most charming young ladies. With dark hair and eyes, I stand a figure of admiration. Success has crowned my work at Bethany, and now I feel prepared for life ' s duties. Truly Yours, MAUD M. JOHNSON. Historian ; — While I do not take a leading part in the moving affairs of college life, yet I am aware of all that is being done. My one obect is to thoroughly prepare myself for life ' s duties whatever they may be. I think that the spirit of reserve is most complimentary. That ' s wliy I ' m so reserved. But watcli, ynu will hear from me some day. Truly Yours, leth.y madden. Dear Editor : — I am like the peaceful brook that flows along the road- side, still, quiet and harmless, yet doing my duty as a man. I have an eternal hatred for wrong, and an equal amount of reverence for right. I live for one purpose and that is to exalt truth. ] Iay my peaceful life be in some way an incentive for good to those who need help. Very Respectfully, A. F. HAIXES. Junior Editor : — I am of small stature, but great in mental capacity. I am in school for culture. That is why I am taking the Min- isterial course. I think the study of the Bible gives more culture than Mathematics. I asked Prof. Nefl concerning the matter and he said he thought so too. Well then I am on the right road to popularity and success. I do not fear any thing c-xcept biz. Sincerely, EDITH ZOE MERCER. Dear Historian : — West Virginia has always produced great men and I am no e.xception to the rule. Often it requires several years to Know Thyself but I have at last done so and am almost prepared for life ' s battles. After being graduated from Bethany College I expect to study Law and feel confident of being successful. There is still plenty of room for good men and I expect to find a vacant place, if not, I ' ll make one. Respectfully, L. C. CORNETT. 45 Dear EniTOR ; — I am one of tlic best preacliers in the Christian Brother- hood and by far tlie most prominent ministerial student in College. At present I am student pastor of the First Christian Church at Smithfield, Ohio, a church which in every way is a model apostolic church. In college affairs I am continually having honors thrust upon me. I am sure no person in the ranks of ' 10 could have filled so efiicicntly the office of Class Historian. The personal ii.Titc up and History speak for themselves. Yours Truly, B. R. JOHNSON. Mv Dear Editor:— You have asked for my write up and then limited me to seventy-five words. Really I couldn ' t t ell half I should like to tell even in ten times as much space. As you all know I am a married man from Michigan and very proud of the fact. I am a preacher with wonderful ability and the people at Statt ' s Run Church can testify to this fact. About College I am a very prominent man. I am one of the six men who control athletics here. I am also a ringer in the Y. M. C. A. and editor-in-chief of the Collegian. See some of my edi- torials in the Collegian on reform and then see what you think of me. Look out for me I am a wonder. Yours, H. H. ANDERSON. Class Editor : — • I am now standing at the portal of the future with an ancestry complimentary to a king and talenls for all vocations of life. I am ready to enter the unexplored fields. I shall travel where no foot has trod, and pave the way to peace and happiness for millions yet unborn. I know a scheme pertaining to the complexities of life when once made known to the world will revolutionize thought, transform the modern life, and give a new incentive to the inquiring mind for truth. Truly Yours, W. H. CRAMBLET. Compiler Or Junior History: — I am a Greek student and a Church Historian; my aim in life is to present to the world tlie Church of Christ in its various forms as it has come through time. With my power as an orator, talent as a thinker, and genius as a writer I think that I shall be able to fathom the deeps of the remote past and bring to light the long hidden truth that the world so badly needs. How did you like my last Junior Oration? Yours Transubstantiat:(inally, IRA P. HARBAUGH. Junior Class Historian: — ■ Philosophy, Art, Chemistry, Mathematics, English, Physics, Botany, Missions ; I have studied them all, and atii therefore a walking library. I never go down the street with less than ten books under my arm and never more than twenty-five. The reason why I do not carry more is because twenty-five would tax my capacity to its uttermost, and I might share the fate of the Wonderful One Horse Shay. Respectfully Yours, C. V. DUNN. 45 F.I rroKS : — I am a natural born orator. I e.xpect to rescue the present age from the dark shadows of obscurity and bear it aloft to the realms of immorality upon golden wings of oratory. I e.xpect to restore this long lost art. I am a Cicero, a Demos- thenes, a Webster, in me may be found the combined talents of the great orators of the past. I am not a product of this age. I am John the Baptist in the wilderness preparing the way for the 20th century oratory. I could write much more but I am manager of the Bethanian and am rushed for time. Hastily, J. G. SMITH. De. r Historian : — . bove all things I am perfectly square. I mean by this ihat my conduct is such as commendable, and of which I am not ashamed. I have never used a pony in Latin or Greek. So my conscience is clear. Most of the boys think I am a pretty good fellow and I think so too. I am not much of an atheleu or sport but a common student desirous of an education ; so you see why I have never bizzed. Sincerely, C. J. RAMSEY. El.ITOR : — I am a student of no mean ability even though I do spend considerable time on bis. There are other things in college life besides vi-ork and I think bis is one of thern. Mv motto has always been The uttcnuost for tlic higlicst I have attained the nltcnimst and am now on my way to the ' highest. In college affairs I am to take an active part in cvery- Ihing that is of benefit to Old Bethany and always stand ready to e.xhalt her fair name. What do you think of the Bethanian ? I had the honor of being assistant editor of it tliis year. Truly Yours, W. H. McL. ' MN. De. r Histori. .n ' : — I live in historic Bethany. I can remember the vice- presidents of the college back to Archie Mercer. But I do not live in the past for I am in the French and German depart- ment. More than that. Art has attracted me and you can judge whether or not I have talent by my work in this Bethanian. Some persons think that I like to have a good time and to dress up, but as to that I won ' t say. Perhaps you coi-ld recognize me by my always saying Oui. Out. Yours, Maybe, GARDA BACHELL. Junior Class Editor: — I am a combination of seriousness and dignity— ser ' ovs, liecause life is seriou.s — dignity, because the pilp ' t deman Is it. I am a man for the hour. I well know how to adapt myself to any and all circumstances. I can play a piano; sing a solo, entertain in kinds of society and move off among men like a lish in water. It might also be of interest to you to know that I am from Shelby, Ohio. Yours in the Faith, C. A. HANNA. 47 Class Editor; — The best thing I can say oT myself is that I am a student of much abihty although you would never guess it. In college affairs I am more prominent in social circles than anywhere else. Each year I try to get a new girl and thus far have been very successful. Of course, I haven ' t always found the way of the bizitc easy but that makes no difference. We all have our troubles with it and I have forgotten mine long ago. After graduating 1 expect to preach and feel very confi- dent that I will make good. Sincerely, C. F. EVANS. Junior Historian : — I am going to be graduated in the Scientific course. Since I came to Bethany I have made good in everything. It was a long time before I attempted bi::, but I find that I am a star in it. My business in life will be that of an old scout. I will play third in the American League and follow the footsteps of my father as Bursar of Bethany College. Heartily Yours, FRANK N. McEVOY. Dear Editor : — It seems to me that I am a very important man in the affairs of Bethany College. I have been President of the Y. M. C. A. and I dare say that every one in school, from the least to the greatest, knew it at the time. I have a good heart in me. It is true that I make some mistakes but back of it :dl is a good purpose. Just think I never played foot ball or liase ball in my life, but out of my abundant resource of such things I have been chosen Athletic Editor of the Bethanian. There is no impedient to my way to success. Yours, WALTER W. BRUNS. Editor Bethanian; — I keep myself in a quiet corner. Once have I ventured into the complexities of bh. Its road was so difficult that I have withdrawn to a place of solitude, to ponder over what might have been. I will remove the burden of my broken heart by a deep study in Greek and a little sport on the ath- letic field. Had I not a glorious future my life would sink in despair. In Haste, W. F. CORWIN. Dear Editor :; — Every one knows me as Bob and by my long steps. I specialize in all line of college activity except bic My ambi- tions are ; to be a good fellow, and to appear reserved and sedate. I hope some day to be America ' s foremost ph sician and for this reason I have passed up the girls and athletics and have committed all the medical books I can find. At present I am working on Martin ' s Human Body. I am even radical enovigh to believe that man was not made for woman. Respectfully, F. E. ROBERTS. 48 Junior Editor : — I am in the toils of Cupid. My heart is fixed between the darts, and I dare not swerve. I have an eternal hatred for Greek, and its various forms regular, irregular, smooth, and rough, past and present, it sets the wheels in my head running at random which spell out Flunk. Deliver me, a preacher don ' t need Greek, that ' s what I ' m going to be. Respectfully, T. B. IMHOFF. Mv Dear Historian : — I think that by the late removal of my tonsils I shall be able to execute my long coveted plan. Before this event the fates seemed to be against me, but now my voice ha s been restored two-fold, and my future allures me. Then is no doubt, now, but what I shall be a great preacher. I used to l)e called prcachcrctte. While this name was very applicable to me at that time, yet it sinks into utter insignificance when compared to The Rev. Mr. L. F. Carter, A. M., D. D. Very Nearly Yours, L. F. CARTER. My Dear Historian : — I am a true bicitc. Every morning I may be seen on the corridor. I feel that I have not been esteemed in Bethany as 1 deserve. Many of the student body have never learned of n-.y powers, or know my turn of mind. I am a real bene- factor, and a lack of opportunity to exercise my ability and tc manifest my benevolent spirit dwarfs my susceptibilities. I hope that by my senior year my worth shall be felt and I shall have ample opportunity to be a present help in fvery kind of trouble. Yours Very Respectfully, PERRY A. JONES. Sir:— I am all alone in the world and in the solitude of my own self I am planning for the future. Never again shall I break my silent companionship by the association of others. I once sipped the nectar from Cupid ' s lips, but as I reached my arms to embrace, it took its flight and left me to linger around the graves of departed hopes. The vacancy in my bosom shall never be filled and I am doomed to live alone. As a bene- factor of the world! must be sought. Yours Truly, W. A. BLAIR. Dear Editor ; — I am certainly very grateful to you for this opportunity of getting before the public. It has always been my ambition to be a prominent man and I think this a splendid opportunity to attain some prominence. In College most of my work has been in the Music Department and as a result of this training I have developed into a very prominent vocalist. My songs never fail to please. I have appeared several times during the past season before the elite of the college and each time my elTorts have been crowned with success. After being grad- uatd from Bethany I expect to spend my life singing in Grand Opera. Yours, J. I. WINEKE 49 I look a little sleepy, but this is due to over study aud con- fmement. Of all men I am most awake. I know my busir.ess and attend to it. That of others I am not concerned. My father is a lawyer and I have imbibed bis traits. That accounts for my ability as an orator. Give me a chance and tlie world is mine, and if no chance is given I will make on- . Yours Truly, G. D. RAMSEY. Dear Editor : — Nobody has ever guessed what I am going to be in the drama of human affairs. In fact, you could not gue s. Since my arrival at Bethany I have been cut loose from my m.other ' s apron strings, and have ventured out into the sea of life and have wrestled with its prol)lems. I find they are easy. It is for me to search out the vast unknown, and Bring to light ihe knowledge that a thousand years of our present thouglit would take to a discover. I have visions that are not coinmon to the general human mind. I see through the surface of all things, and delve into the remote recesses of reason. My mind soars up and up and up and up and up. Affectionately, D. C. HUGHES. My Dear EtifTOR : — I am a foot ball man, bicitc, student and good fellow. .Aside from that, aliout tlie only thing worth mentioning is that once I helped a student prepare a sermon whicli was really a master-piece. I have all kinds of good friends about College and am entirely satisfied. I have a great mind but think it is too much trouble to use it, so I try and take life easy. Next year I e.xpect to have on the gridiron the best foot ball team Bethany has ever had. Sincerely, JAMES H. CHAPMAN. Dear Editor ; — I was born an indefinite number of years ago in Tyler County, W. Va. Since then I have led a career fashioned by various motives and intentions but governed by no particular purpose. In medical college I demonstrated my ability as a student and my skill with the knife but was compelled, from various causes, to give up my work there. The one hope of my life now is to graduate from college, settle down in a home of my own and spend my days as an educator. The only regret of my life is that owing to the strenuous life I have been compelled to live I have been obliged to neg- lect associating with ladies as much as I desired to. At present, however, I am trying to make up for lost time. Thanking you very much for this opportunity to get before the public my record, I am. Yours Truly, S. C. UNDERWOOD. Editorial Board : — I do not believe in the foolishness of youth ; neither do I tiiink a fellow has to be good looking in order to command the sincere attentions of a girl. I am determined to prove to the world that any one can gain success even though they be handicapped by being a woman. I am always anxious to tell you a bit of my mind if it won ' t put you out of the way, for I feel very certain that you will find that there is wisdom in all that I say. Yours Truly, RUTH McCAMMON.. SO Dear lIisTuRiAN : — Yon would liardly bcliL-ve that this is from a liasliful person Init I could scarcely be persuaded to have my name appear at all. I really think that Bethany is the best although Ohio Wesleyan is cer- tainly second. Xevertheless, I have almost forgotten the latter college since I have been in Bethany. I especially delight to walk the corridor. Init I know I sliould be terribly frighthened if a boy were to walk with me. Very Truly, IVA GERTRUDE BRASH E- R. Class Editor: — Perhaps j ' ou would know me better if I tell you my name is Die. Where that name ever came from I don ' t know, 1)ut never mind, that has nothing to do with my personal history. In athletics 1 have Iieen very promment. At foot ball I made good long ago and my prospects in base ball allure me. At tennis I have been very unfortu- nate because to be a good man at tennis one must have a desperate biz case in order to get the most out of the game, but sad to say I never have made good at fciV although I am still hopeful. In Col- lege, mathematics is my favorite study. Truly, HARRY AITKEN. Editor : — ■ I am from the hills of West Virginia. Having a home situated among beautiful fields and woods. I have the spirit of the JMaid of Orleans, and I can see no reason why I should not lead an army to such a victory as did the famous Joan of Arc. Not under the attire of war but in the garb of peace. Sincerely, ELIZABETH GATTS. SI Junior Class History We have been asked to record the history of a class that stands iinparalelled in the history of our college. In reading the history of the various classes since the establishment of this institution I find no words or phrases that help me to give an adequate conception of our place and standing, thus I am compelled to draw our words from the resourceful vocabularies of our own number to frame the thoughts pertaining to our growth and progress. As this history will be read by a large circle of friends and relatives, an no doubt by posterity, the reader will pardon me if I soar in the atmosphere of eulogy in emulating the record of this class, which it so fittingly deserves, and without such its history could not be correctly written. As our space is limited our story must abound in figures of speech, ranging from the sublime to the ridiculous. Again, as history is facts which cluster about personalities, so the greater the personality the greater the history; and as the Junior class stands united for the highest and the best of our history is most deserving. A class of such distinction and honor deserves a detailed history from its beginning. It was late in September of Ofi that a happy band of thirty fine young men and women left their homes in distant countries to meet around the hallowed hills of Old Bethany. Some desiring to be ministers, and missionaries, doctors and lawyers, while others were seeking an education for the sake of its culture and refinement. With high ideals and aspiring hopes this happy band entered upon its career diligently and bravely. Diligent in study, brave on the field of conquest. As Freshies and Sophs their colors of blue and gold waved undaunted in the breeze, announcing victory amid shouts of triumph. In Literary and Athletic lines we have contributed our share of laurels to the crown of Bethany. As Freshies we had our number which well bore the name ; but being of such a temperament as could well adapt themselves to their growing environment they kept pace with the outside world, and took part in its manipulation when we donned the name of Sof li we at once realized our position in college life, and thus knowing our responsibility and duties, we did not hesitate to perform them. What then should we pxpect? Why the very thing that is most natural under such circumstances. Did it happen ? Ask those who were freshies the year we were Sophs ! After the class scrap which occurred late in our Sophomore year, and which had been a complete victory to our credit, we settled down to a calmer life. Since then our mind has been turned toward the future. The unexplored fields which lie before us invite us into their harvest. As Juniors we have pre- served our dignity and added our share of honor to class history. Only once have we entered into the spirit of battle, and that was out of pure sympathy for the breathless Sophs. At the nick of time one of our brave Juniors came to the rescue of the Sophomore class and scaled the old sycamore while being beaten and bruised, to lower the colors of the Freshmen, giving honor to their opponents, while in truth it belongs to the class of ' 10. As the year closes and summer greets us with its breezes and songs, birds and flowers I hope for the Juniors of ' 09 a most happy and most pleasant vacation and may we return to assume the duties of our senior year with the same happy spirit that has always been ours, and may the loyal friendship exist there that has always been marked in our Junior life.

Sophoiiiores! 54 Sophomore Class History We, as the Sophomore class of ' 09 have entered school, realizing the value and necessity of a higher education. By using the powers of our minds and bodies, while being surrounded by the uplifting influence of its patrons and friends, we shall aim to advance the high standard of schohlarship that Bethany has long maintained. Although temptations intrude our path, and trials encompass us, it is the purpose of the class of 1911 to grasp every opportunity offered to make our char- acters firm and noble, so that we may be equipped with the power to strike, with a conquering force, the tasks of life, whatever that may be. To aid in overcom- ing these tasks, self reliance is of vital importance, and we feel sure that this addi- tional element is possessed, to a safe degree, by each member of the Sophomore class. Ours is a large and ambitious class. We have already displayed much energy in the class room, as well as on the field of battle, the Sophomore-Freshman scrap. To many of us, this annual scrap did not contain many of the characteristics that usually go with those familiar games of our childhood, Ring Around Rosy and Drop the Kerchief, ' ' but it ended, however, in a glorious victory for our class, the Sophs. How patiently those noble Freshmen lay in the Gymn, their hantis and feet yielding to the influence of a clothes line, awaiting their summons to the scene of action, to witness their pride, the Gold and Black, being distributed as keepsakes among their worthy victors ! Nevertheless this incident, which is now only a matter of history, enabled us to become better accjuainted with, and gave us more abiding faith in those who are following us — the Freshmen. The Sophomore class is well represented in all religious, literary, athletic and social organizations of the college. By earnestly participating in these organiza- tions, we hope to achieve especial honor for the class of 1911, so that it may contri bute equal benefit to the glory of old Bethany. Let us, therefore, hope that we may be able not only, to raise the banner of honor, during our college days, but carry it high so that it may remain untarnished throughout our lives. H. H.

This movement aroused new opposition from the Sophomores, an 1 thev, to their shame be it said, sliowed their animosity by cutting our President ' s hair, thus putting him at a disad wantage with the fair sex until Xmas. This outrage seemed to be the limit for the Sophomores sand afterwards the_ - seeme(l to die. During the remainder of the college year, mitil March ISth, the iM ' eshmen had everything their own way. ' idiey looked upon their so-calleil superiors witli contempt and went on ' ,; whenever the occasion perinitted and sometimes when it did not jjcrmit, a privilege never allowed Freshmen before in liethanw There was no opposition whatever anil some of the more inquisitive inquire; 1 as t(. whether the c(jllege could boast of a Sophomore class. .After the stonn a calm. The reverse of this was true however, for the Freshmen, for after a long calm lasting aluKjst all winter the storm came, an:l it was no mild one let me tell you. (jn the night of March lOth, Pres. Plueston and some of his classmates were busy informing the class that the flag would be raided the following morning and the annual Class Scrap would be fought. The Sophs l)ecame aware of the movement and rallied their forces only to have a few sh.ort battles. ' Jdie morning of March 18th dawned bright, clear, and cold. Dindng Chapel services the flag was placed in the top of the large sycamore tree at the foot of the Campus just in front of the College. The Sophomores, taking advantage of the cold, tried the freezing process and allowed the brave lianil of fifty to shiver until 1 p. m. The} ' in the meantime, bciiuj clothed and fed and having rallie 1 all the Sophs, Juniors and a few Preps, appeared at the top of the knoll all ready for the attack. The fight was long and fierce, yet the cold and half starved Ijand of Fresh- men coidd not hold out against a much larger number of well fe 1 enemies so they were finally conquered. Put defeat is n(jt a sign of weakness.. The fact that Napoleon met his ' aterloo is no sign that he was unable to lead an army, so we the class of 1 ' ' 12 stand strong in the faith that we may sometime conquer or die. 59 p R E S S M I ; , kL- 3ot) S mjoK to oj sL 0.

Fechng hterar} ' hfe a necessary adjuct to college work, the students of iJetliany met on Xov. 3, 1841, and organized the first literary societ} ' in Bethany College . Several names wlfc proposed but it was ( ' ecided to name the literary association Neotrophian. Im- mediately a committee was appointed to draft a constitution and draw up rides and regulations. The first three sections of Article T. of the X. L. S. constit ' .i- tion read : Sec. 1. This association shall he known as the Xeotrophian Literary Society. Sec. 2. The motto of this society shall he Oitacriiinis J ' nun. Sec. 3. The ISible shall be recognized as our guide. On March 1( . 184 ' ), the Xeotrophian Society wa incorporatetl by the Gen- eral Assembly of ' irginia. Twice in her history has X. L. S. suffered loss by fire. In 1857, when the College was burned to the ground the society library, consisting of about twelve hundred viilumes, was l(5st. But the loss stimulated her friends and the old library was replaced by a larger and Ijetter one. A ' hen the new college building was completed, X. L. S. was given a finely fitted hall in the northern end. But when this was burned in 1879, again her library and valuable furnishings were destroyed. In 1880, X. I, S. moved to her present quarters. ? Iany of Bethany ' s best men have been Xeotrnphians. Such men as J. W. AIcGarvey, J. R. Lamar, 11. S. Lobengier, Champ Clark, leader of minority in the House of Representatives, ex-Governor C)dell of Xew York, B. C. Hege- man, A. R. Milligan, i I. M. Cochran, G. H. Anderson, Trustee of Bethany Col- lege, G. T. Oliver, another trustee, C). Schmeidel, E. O. I ovett, and Thonias W. Phillips, have gone out and made old Bethany famors by their standing in the world. For the past few years X. L. S. has led in the number of graduates sent out from this institution. This year nine men go out. The nearest to this is six from one of the other societies. May her work go on as long as Bethany stands. H. F. G. 63 AMERICAN LITERAJCV IXSTITL ' TL. Ald ' iTo: Lux Dcscciidit c Carlo. CdLcKs: Blue and IJliitc llHi.Ex Marshall W. L.

Demaro Mary Adams HISTORY On March 20, 1833, there was l)orn to Hethany College a Child of Destiny. On that (late the State of ' irginia. whicli then inckuled West Virginia, through its legislature formally recognized the legal existence of the Adelphian Literary Society by issuing to it a charter. It has been a precocious child-oil, yet ever young, and enjoys perpetual youth, tlirough a strong nifusion of life each year from many states and countries. Its fifty-six years of history have reflected special glory upon Rethany College, for its membership has included most of the prominent ministers through whom the college enjoys an imperishable fame. For many years its work was special — the ministerial students of the A. L. I. and X. L. S. being include l in its membership. (July in recent years ha e ladies been admitted. The preacher ' s society as it was wont to be called finally came to recognize the universal importance of the truth that it is not well for a man to be alone, even in a literary society. Since the society concluded to emljrace the ladies, the results have been most gratifyin.g and success has ])een unquestioned. We feel a pardonable pride when we look back over our history and see such names as J. E. I ' ounds, W. J. Wright, W. R. Warren, Earle Wilflcy, R. 1!. liagby, Charles Darsie, A. McLean, E. V. Zollars, W. H. Woolery, C. A. Kleeberger, Nathan Cramblet, P. Y. Pen- dleton, Prof. E. Lee Perry, our present professor of Latin, Prof. Wynne, of Hebrew, and F. D. Power, besides a host of names which space forbids to men- tion. They have wrought mightily for God and it is a high privilege to continue their illustrious work. Let each .Adelphian strive to reach the high idea placed before him. 69 COLLEGIAN CONTEST BANNER For many years tlie Bethany C(ilk i;ian was far from up to the standard of a good college ])apcr and it seemed that no im- ])roveiiient or change could he made in it from year to year. In many cases the editors were not interested in the Ctillegian and did not attemjit its improvement, hut more often it was the fault of the students who could not he induced to write for it. They could not be blamed to a great extent, for the paper was in- ferior and no inducement was offered for their articles. The manager and e litors of 1906- ' 07 were the first to awaken to a realization that the students were willing and what they needed was some incentive to spur them on to literary efforts. The Collegian Contest Banner was at this time brought for- ward, having been donated by Geo. T. Oliver and Mrs. Main. ' Idle id.ea sprang from the fertile brain of the manager and has proved itself a blessing to the I ' ethany Collegian. The Banner was held in the hands of the editorial staff during the first year and the three societies contested for it, making as many points as possible each month, which were counted to their credit and announced in each issue. The contest grew very exciting and the Collegian was a far bettor paper than it had been in its history. Thus the advent of the Collegian Contest Banr.er has brought a new era in our college paper, and it is to be hoped that the succeed- ing editors, during years to come, will hold as high the standard of excellence which our Collegian holds at the present time. •, T ejs TROPHY OF ile ry Society Collegian Contests .1 r ■ isi.b.s.

What we girls are here at college for is not to obtain wisdom and under- standing of material things only, but to develop womanhood of the highest t_ -pe, that we nia_y go out into the world and make it better. This is what we strive after in our Christian Association. During the past year the work has been very successful. Under the able leadership of our president the work was carefully planned and each girl made to feel her own individual responsibility. A devotional meeting is held every Wednesday evening and a fifteen-minute prayer service every morning before breakfast. In these meetings the girls come together all on an equal and are helped and strengthened for their work. A Bible class meets every other Sunday afternoon for the study of the IHIjIc. Its work has been found very profitable and successful, ( ' nee a month a joint meet- ing of the Y. W. and Y. IM. is planned and together we have most helpful meet- ings, then, also a mission-study class meets once a week for its separate work. The association has raised money for the state work and res[)onds cheer- fully whenever a call comes for money. The plan of th e Y. W. C. A. is to bring the girls into closer touch with Christ and with each other. When new girls come into our midst we aim to welcome them in our girlish way and thus drive away homesickness. With our motto ever before us we are pushing forward hoping to do great things for our Master. 75 Yoiin Mon ' s Christian Association Cui ORs: Purple ami Gold.

In c illege tliere is not so much need for the Young Men ' s Christian Association to look after the physical development of its memljers as the athletics of the College attend to this. In his necessar - studies the college man gets sufficient mental development. It remains for the College Y. AI. C. A. to furnish the food and occasion for spiritual growth. The work at Fiethany is being successfull - conducted, we feel, aking this line. In the midst of the many, duties and attractions of college life which tend to distract from religious work, our Y. M. C. A. meetings have been seasons of great interest and benefit. Many young men say that they receive more help from these meetings than the)- do from the preaching service or prayer-meeting of the church. It is not difficult to understand how this is wdien we remember that in the Y. M. C. A. meetings the fellows have opportunity to talk heart t(j heart with each other, and that personal difficultie s .ire dealt with. The Association encourages daily devotional exercises among the students. During the past year a body of the boys of the dormitory formed a devoti(jnal club. They meet once a week and exhort each other to greater consecration. Under the auspices of the Association a Mission Study Class is conducted wdiich is a source of great profit and inspiration. The greatest problem that confronts the Y. M. C. A. at Bethany is how to arouse and maintain interest in the work among a greater proportion of the fellows. Although this problem has not been solved to our satisfaction, we feel encouraged in our work and aim to make the present year the best in the history of the College. 77 dt- 1 K H Er r JI I J; t,w . - - ' ' ||f b ' K ' m I ' KKl V. ,■ Ff ' i ' F .., Rsi ► Mp 1 ► ; l ' ' T ' ■Jl ■ . ■ mm, ■- , , TlW ' rip ' i .,:•■■. ■ ■ , :--- ' ■- ' :.r ' ' . - • • ' • ' The Student Volunteer Mission Band of Bethany College ROLL.

The purpose of the liaml expressed in its charter is to study matters per- taining to foreign niissii ns, to aid spiritual and intellectual growth, tn foster a missionar} ' spirit among the students and to encourage ' jthers to liecome volun- teers for foreign missionary work.

The society took as its motto Christ ' s last command: Go ye into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature. It sends forth an urgent call t i tiiose who want to make their lives C(.)unt f(jr the most, to those wdio desire to build without using another man ' s foundation, to all whose desire is to have Jesus Christ supreme in the lives of all men for whom he ijied, that they consider earn- estly the giving of their lives to missionary work. 79 Y.

Tlie printed word has stimulated the thought of man but mure often it is left to the orator to stir that man to action. Through a committee selected by the Y. M. C. A. a series of lectures and entertainments have been secured for the pur]i()se of bringing the world to us, as it were, with its manifold problems which ])resent themselves for solution. Thus for a time the text-book finds a resting place on the shelf and our vision and so our sympathies and appreciations extend beyond the little horizon which often limits our value to society.

A college best adapted to give this training must work em the principle that . 11 work and no plav makes Jack a dull boy. Dr. R. V. Dale once said, ' ' rhe object of all recreation is to in- crease our ca])acit_ ' for work, to keep the hlo, )d pure and the brain bright and the temper kindly and sweet. Athletics is a recreation and e ' ery colle.t; e that tlevelops highest manhoo 1 in lier students ap])roves of pure athletics, ' e are glad that Bethany has done this. With her gymnasium and her spacious grounds, every student has an opportunit} ' to obtain the much needed exercise, after several hours of stiff study. For a few _ ears past, the athletics of Bethany have been under the supervision of an Athletic Hoard. This board consists of three members of the faculty and three students representing the student bcnly. The managers of the different teams are nominated by the student body and are then ]iassed u])on by the Athletic Board. If the nominees are consi lered worth}- and sr.ited to the office for which they were nominated, they are appointed by the Boaril.. ' Jdiis method has been practiced at Bethany for several years and has proved ver_Y successful. In this way the best men can be securef ' for the several offices. In the past liethany has Ix ' en very fortunate in securing good men for the teams. J he has been able to comjiete with colle.ges much larger than herself. Metbany is represented in athletic circles in all recognized games. (3ur Foot- ball has been of the highest class. Fairness in their dealings with other teams has been characteristic of the bins, and it has won for them many friends. Al- though our team this } ' ear was not as heavy as the one the year previous, they made a very good record, losing onl_ ' two games out of the eight played.. Our Basket-ball also did good work.. One great hindrance to our sttccess in Basket-ball is that we have such poor accommodations for the spectators. For this reason most of the best games must be played away from home. No team can do as well on a strange floor as they can on tlieir home floor. Despite all this our bo3 ' S did well and we are proud of them. Along Base-ball lines for this j-ear we are yet in the dark. Since the I ' lCtban- ian goes to press before the season opens we can do no more than hope for good things. From the a]ipearance of the boys we can prophesy great victories. They made a good showing in their practice work and we have every reason to look for- ward ti) a successful }-ear. ( )ur manager, Ir. Cotton, has secured a good schedule and we expect to win rur share of the games. wish success to the wearers of the B. 96 IJoard of Atlilc tlc Control l ' ' 07-l ' ' (JS. Pkdi ' . E. W.

Not only may he be classed as gentleman and a scholar, Ijut also as an athlete from start to finish. When it comes to athletics he is one whom we do not see every day. It is on the gridiron that his ability as Mi athlete becomes evident. He always plays the game from start to finish; and the teams turned out under his leader- ship, show his ability as a coach. The teams put out under his coaching are ones which Old Bethany well ma} ' l)e proud of. j nd foot-ball is not the only game in which he took a prominent place; for he also took a leading part in base-ball and basket-ball. His aliility in track work was very evident to those who wit- nessed last field-day. In short, it was a walk away.

Altheiugh greatly han licai)pe(l hy the had weather and the shortness of his stay, on account of his having to report to the East Liverpool cluh of the O. and P. league, he was of inestimable service to all the candi !ates in starting them right, by teaching them baseball on a scientific basis. Uude has had a varied career in professional baseball. His first profes- sional pla3-ing was with Zanesville aljout 1900, and since then he has Ijeen with most every league of any importance in the country, including an engagement with the Pittsburg Nationals, who purchased him from the Wheeling club of the Central league, during the middle of the season. Surely a man of his experience and reputation should make an ideal coach for any college team, and we certainly count ourselves lucky to be able to have the services of such an able coach. 107 m mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm ' mCELLA m VALEDICTORY r.Y M. EOLA SMITH 08 The philosopher Leibnitz has left ns an ideal theory of the creation of the universe. In the beginning and at the head of all stands God, the Creator, the sublime, soul-like reality who people His world with beings like to Himself, emanating from His mind as thoughts flow from the mind of man. There are many individuals in existence simply because God regards all aspects of the uni- verse in all possible manners and the result of each view as seen from a dilierent position is a creation differing in some respect from every other. Each individual must forever remain separate aud distinct, f(ir there is no direct communication between God ' s creations : they touch each other bnly through the mind of God. Being thus isolated, standing alone and unapproacha- ble in the throng of its fellow beings, each individual learns of the external world by its own inner experiences. The Creator designed it ' : soul as the representative of the universe, and though the real world is wholly inaccessible, yet the so-called world is merel} ' the involuntar} ' projection of what takes place within itself, the reproduction in miniature of what takes place on the large scale in the macrocosm. Since all God ' s created life is intlependent of its surroundings, God has pre- ordained a universal harmony existent among its multitudinous forms which brings about the unity and completeness of His world Such, in essence, is His theory. Happily it is not our province to put forth a critique of it? exaggerations and shortcomings, to defend or to deny His right to establish such a universe of individuals with such a God at their head, or to prove or disprove that fatalism lies in the last analysis of His doctrine. It is enough to say, with Alford, of the teaching of any great man: Truth does not consist of minute accuracy of detail, but in conveying right impression; and there are vague ways of speaking that are truer than strict facts would be. When the Psalmist said, ' Rivers of water run down mine eyes because men keep not the law, ' he did not state the fact, but he stated a truth deeper than fact, and truer. In this light we seek to build on the philosopher ' s theory. Emerson has said, Every great man is a unique The Scipionism of Scipio is precisely that part which he could not borrow. We say today every man is a unique. What he has aggregated out of his own thought and action is his own peculiar charm, and surprises and delights us when it is produced. When the limitless and inexhaustable variety of Nature ' s form andshades is noted our minds are appalled at the resourcefulness of God. But even more wonderful is the boundless scope of individuality among his rational creation. Phrenologists find no two heads alike externally; phychologists have discovered no two minds acting exactly the same under similar excitations ; no man is the counterpart of his fel- low. Herein lies a secret of growth : What one man has left vmdone, another has been peculiarly fitted to accomplish and has carried on to perfection ; what one nation has failed to realize in the rush and struggle for existence among rival powers, another has grasped easily and has come rapidly to the forefront of civic 110 affairs. Human experience from the dawn of time to the dawn of eternity, has been and will be but the rythmic repition of this princi]i!e : Countless the various species of mankind: Countless the shades that separte mind from mind. No general object of desire is known ; Each has his will and each pursues his own. If it were not for individuality, if each generation of men walked in the foot- steps of their fathers, imitating with parrot-like exactitude, their words and cus- toms, where would be our boasted superiority in civilization and enlightenment? But tliis hypothesis is absurd, for as some one has said : Very rarely do we find a literal repetition of what is offered. Even from the beginning there is a tendency to depart a little from the copy — to adopt it somewhat to the special circumstances and tastes of the individual : so that the replica always has a turn in it that the original did not have. Thus has the race advanced, not by section nor by platoons, nor in solid phalanxes, but here and there in the course of ages, an individual has stood out on the horizon of life and cast his shadow over the worlil. It is a wonderful fact that the human mind, the mind of a single individual who is such an infinitesimal part of the created universe, should have within itself the power of grasping such a multitude of things in such magnitude of proportion. As the crystal Alpine lake reaches up its bright face to enfold in its bosom great expanses of sk_y, seemingly bottomless as we stand on its shore and gaze down, down as far beneath as the blue arches above, seemingly stretching as far to east and west, north and south as the immeasureable heavens themselves, so the mind of man mirrors the world. All the divine melodies and ecstacies of centuries may surge through one heart, and the poet is born : all the grace and beautv of material things may enthrall one man ' s soul, and the sculptor carves or the arch- itect builds a monmnent to his own genius ; all the shades and tones and forms and expressions may be wrapped in one intellect and the unfolding displays the artist: one life may epitonize the gleanings of eons. God ' s world is not a riddle to be solved only by those of superior intellectual ability, neither can one enter its doorway ' s of knowledge by srying, Open, Sesame! God ' s truths are profound, yet any earnest soul may acquire unto them. Every human life has the power of absorbing within itself in miniature reproduction, the broad life of the world. Man ,as evolved by the ages, is the highest manifestation in the temporal process of growing more and more like the eternal. As some one has said, It was as though in man realizing hi.s- destiny through self activity, the Absolute beheld himself reflected. The Absolute is, the finite becomes. Yet, great as is the individual, important as are his knowledge, sympathy and virtue to the world ' s progress, an omniscient God has planned a world on such a vast scale that individuals may fall as the leaves of autumn and the universal completeness is still intact. Each life isneeded in its day and generation, yet when it succumbs to its mortality, another arises to take its place. The present, the past — that ponderous accumulation of present moments steadily and relentlessly slipping by in the wake of time, and the future — present moments yet to come from the lap of infinity, all must owe their records not only to men, but to man- kind as well. The purposes of God must prevail though private opinion be scat- tered to the four winds of heaven and sunk in the boundless deep. As in the development of the human life the stature of the child must yield place to that of the man, and infantile conceptions develope into mature thoughts, gliding imperceptively from stage to stage of growth, tissues and cells ever being worn out, cast aside and replaced by the new and strong, never in a state of rest 111 but continually building, yet ncjt in ilisordcrly confusion of man ' s workmanship, but quietly preserving the unit} ' of the whole from the lieginning of the life to its close, so in the development of God ' s universe the individual life fulfills its mis- sion, is snuffed out and replaced, the curtain rises on a new scene and the play of life goes on unmarred, uninterrupted, growing steadily toward the climax wdiich God himself has planned. The Pantheist says: All is God. Should he not rather say: All is God ' s? God is not a part of the world, hut the world, this great universe with its millions of peoples, it planets, satelites, suns and stars, is all in God and a part of His vast dominion. Even before life appeared, while the earth was without form and void, the great plan of the world was beginning to be unfolded and from the begin- ning to the present has been growing and developing as God vi_irks in His own mysterious way His wonders to perform. We are a part of God whether we will or not and are used b} ' Him to work out the ultimate destiny of the world. As Robert Hall has beautifully said: The wheels of nr.ture are not made to roll backward ; everything presses on toward eternity ; from the birth of time an im- petuous current has set in which bears all the sons of men toward that interminable ocean. Meanwhile heaven is attracting to itself whatever is congenial to its nature, is enriching itself by the spoils of earth, and collecting within its capacio.us bosom whatever is pure, permanent and divine. The course of events has brought about the close of another collegiate year of Bethany College, another class pauses for a moment on its stage before it is pushed aside by its successor. We, the class of nineteen eight, have passed a few brief but portentous years here un !er the shadow oi these walls whence have been said and done wonderful things, years as full of omens and signs as ever those of Grecian days, coming not from a blind interpretation of dead sacrifices offered to health gods, but from living voluntary sacrifices made to the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, years when as our minds advanced under the brighten- ing lead of Education, the hand of God appeared now to restrain, now to urge, now to soothe, until we stand today, as we are, before you . O, classmates, this is an enviable day in our lives: our past college life, the dear, dead past with all its sorrows and joys, its disappointments and its e.xhilerat- ing triumphs, its play and its freedom, for it has had much of all these, is still so vividly before our eyes that we do not realize it is gone : the future, alluring and imtried, stretches invitingly ahead and calls us to come and see. How limitless are our possibilities if we swing in line to the rythmic beat of pulse of life, the in- dicator of the heart of God, how wide our scope and bright our view if our lives harmonize with God, if we recognize that we as a part of the world are in Him and circumscribed by Him, tliat there are certain fixed hounrlries beyon l which we cannot go without loss and destruction to ourselves and others. But before we leave today, e ' er we lay aside the cap and gown for the dust- stained garment of toil, let us pause for a brief time on this first plateau on the mountainous wav of life, this Commencement of a new ascent, let us pause here and pay our respect to those who have guided and led us when our feet would have stumbled and fallen alone. To the President and Faculty we pay the loftiest tribute our thoughts can dictate. Many times we have misunderstood your pur- poses and subjected you to our criticisms.. Only years of experience can show us ) ' our value, your deep interest in our welfare, your patience and forbearance with our egoism. We leave you with regret and may it be our highest aim to be to others what you have been to us. The hour has come when the class of nineteen eight must yield place to those who have already laid their hands on the coveted cap and gown.

There were races that he W(.)n. I ' ve been told. Then his e ' es were joyous blue. And his hair was joyous, too — V Reddish gold. Now his ruddy hair is thin. And his cheeks are shrunken in Gaunt and grey. And the ashen shailows run Where the lurking smile of fun used to play. He hobbles through the hall, And his eyes gaze past us all, Bleared and dim. But he hugs his Lotze fast. And the voices of the past Speak to him. It is said he used to go Out for walks, full long ago. Not alone. But his courting days are past. For he settled down at last Just to bone. It may he it is a sin I ' ' (ir me to sit and grin At him here ; But to leave all joy behind For an unremittent grind Seems so queer. And if I should live to be A senior such as he. Shrunk and dry. Let them look at me and smile Let them laugh as I have, while I go by. 114 ORATORY DEPARTMENT The (liiostion To cram or not tn cram — that is the question. Whether ' tis l)etter to go home With ciiiis and Hunks, Or to kill ycinrsel f — the nigiit hefore exams. And then not get one pass. To sit up and to cram — No more ami, hy that cramming say we end The callings and sarcastic jibes — And get in good with Profs. ' Tis a consummation Devoutcdly to be wished. To study and to cram, And by our cramming lose, jNIucli sleep and still llimk out? Aye, there ' s the rub. 115 Appreciation — The Bethany Hack STRANGE things will occur in the course of five or six thousand years. Some strange things occur in less time than that. Some occur in a minute, or sixty seconds. Some, in years. In this article I want to write about something strange, and if you will give me your attention for five or si.x hours, I shall perform the obnoxious task. I want to write about the Bethany hack. Is that strange? It is strange to the new students, and it is chiefly for their benefit that I am writing. I am writ- ing, also, to make the blood boil in those students who have been here from one to a dozen years. Three hundred and si.xty-five and one-fourth ila_ s ago, there was no street car line coming from Wellsburg to Bethany. We had hacks.. If any new student does not understand that term, let him ask an old one. But these hacks have been relegated to oblivion by this thing called a street car. We oppose this street car, and believe in the revival of the Bethany hack. A decent respect for the opinions of mankind require that we declare the causes which impel us to the opposition. First, the stupendous price charged by the hack was a decided advantage. Everyone, from Z. F. Sweeney down to a junior prep in Bethany, had to pay that price. I say it was an advantage. Does any one want something for nothing? A man should pay for what he gets. He does not appreciate it if he does not. Shakespeare says. ] Iore sharper than a serpent ' s tooth is vile ingratitude. No one can be grateful unless he appreciates, and no one can appreciate what he does not pay for, and that enough to feel it. If Shakespeare was here, he would be opposetl to this trolley line, and strongly in favor of reviving the Bethany hack. Second, social advantages. No one can appeciatc the social advantages of the Bethany hack who has not ridden in one. A hack is filled with students, they are discussing questions of momentous importance to the state, the nation, and the world — how Prof. Bourne squelches the unprepared student ; how Prof AIc- Evoy makes his little speech twice a year ; how Prof. Johnson tries to go on biz — or rather, tries to stay on ; how the president discovers biz couples on the corridor, and causes them, in less time than it takes to tell it, to become minus quantities; how the juniors play jokes on the seniors — these, and many other questions of great importance, they discuss, besides telling jokes and evolving yarns and witticisms to the edification of all. These advantages cannot be had on the street car. Therefore, we strenuously oppose it, and just as strenuously advocate the return of the Bethany hack. Third, we are in favor of the hack because of its historicity. Think of the great men that have ridden on the hack. There have been W. J. Wright, A. Mc- Clean, J. W. JMcGarvey, A. C. Pendleton, A. Campbell, and Hess Willard. Is historical significance worth nothing? Ought not everyone to be proud to travel as these great men? This street car obliterates all historical association. Not only this, but great men ' s trunks have been brought to Bethany on the hack. It ought to be an inconceivable pleasure to have one ' s trunk conveyed to Bethany as great men have had theirs conveyed. But this inestimable privilege is gone, now they must be brought out on a street car. We declare it is absurd, unkind, offensive, ungrateful, preposterous and un- patriotic. We, therefore, enter our protest against this new order of things, and if all others will do the same, we pledge at least one minute a year to abolishing by demolishing the street car line, and reinstating the Bethany hack. 116 ART DKr ' ARTMIvNT.

Then a sudden jerk at my arm. I turned and beheld a strange phantom. Who sternly said unto me, Come and see dear old Bethan}- College, As dear old Pjethany College might be I stood for a moment in terror, Gazing at him by my side ; But finally accepted his proffer For him to act as my guide. We strolled to the end of the corridor And viewed the old college wall : The bricks and mortor were perfect. There was no sign that it ever would fall. We entered the book store shortly. But my guide and 1 seemetl to be lost ; When the man just over the counter. Said they now sold text books at cost. I looked at my guide in amazement And he softly wdiispered to me : This is dear old Bethany College, As dear old Bethany College might be. We retraced our steps on the corridor. And stood on the elevator car ; And as we ascended to chapel He allowed me to smoke my cigar. The chapel was warmed by steam heat. Great paintings adorned every wall ; Every student was in his position. There was no longer need for roll call. I looked at my guide much bewildered, But he quietly whispered to me : This is dear old Bethany College, As dear old Bethany College might be. Together we visited each class room Heard senior and freshman recite ; But no freshman sat with the seniors They were classified justly and right 128 We were informed of a change in the schechile That it was permanent thru and thru ; That the professors an dstudents before hand, Knew exactly what was to do. I looked at my guide in amazement And lie whispered softly to me : This is dear old Bethany College, As dear old Bethany C(illege might be Come! come! the luseuin, m_v guide aid, We must visit before ' tis too late ; And see the Prof, in charge there. Who keeps everything in good shape. And will you believe me, dear reader. The place was as clean as could be : Every specimen in case wall or window, Was shown to my guide and to me. The Prof, in charge said politely. This collection is the best in the land, To which the students have access, Whenever the occasion demands. We strolled to the science department, There professors had charge of this work ; Each student had his own lab desk. There was no thought of parasite or shirk. With tears of rejoicing they told me For lab work they need pay no fee ; My guide said — Behold dear old Bethany College, As dear old Bethany College might be We entered the library building As the clock in the tower struck ten, Both reading rooms were in service. Filled with college women and men. The latest books were in evidence The Antedeluvians had passed : The library was open at all hours, The students ' wish accorded at last. I turned to address my conductor, But no where was he to be seen ; I realized then very plainly, That my journey had been but a dream. The dear old College was standing. Was standing for me and for you ; No change had been wrought while in dreamland, But we only wisli it were true. 129 The Bygone Year Farewell to the days of the bygone year, Farewell to them now they ' re done. T think of their hours with a smile and tear. I grieve, for so swift they ' re done. Full rare were the jo3 ' s of those b_vgone days. Right true were the friends they brought. I give to the full of my heart ' s best praise For these, and the lessons taught. Glad year of the past with thy vict ' rics won. Glad times which shall come no more. Full well for the right has tli}- work been done, Thy toil to increase my store. . nd now as I turn with a sincere heart. Stretch fcirth to the days to be. May I in my place act well my part. Help ' d on by the good from thee. -G. A.

The fight this year was no exception to the rule; everyone was interested — from the Junior Prep, to the dignified Senior, and all showed their interest b} ' assembling on the the campus to see the mighty conflict, and to cheer their respective sides to victory. The Freshmen leaders had planned and i)repared for the fight luring the night, in the hope that the_ ' could deceive the Sophomores, but through a blunder the plot was exposed and the Sophs and Juniors were aroused. During the night both sides tied up a number if men and caused a great deal of trouble and noise, but did not do anything I ' esperate until the next morning at eight o ' clock, when the Freshmen placed their flag in the old Sycamore tree, and challenged the S :)phs to take it down. The challen.ge. however, went unheeded until after dinner, when the first rush was made. Meanwhile the Freshmen were forced to remain in the cold and to miss their dinner, but Prof. Stewart and Freshmen girls came to their rescue with baskets of sandwiches and buckets of hot cofTce, and so no one actually starved. Scarcely had the meal been finished when the vSonhs charged down the hill and started the fight. Soon the well organized bands of Freshmen, Sophomores and Juniors were a seething mass of humanity, kicking, striking and yelling for victory, each confident of ultimate success. But the organization and well-laid plans of the Sophomores were too much for the Freshmen, who. one by one, in spite of their valiant defense, were tied and carried away, till none remained to guard the tree, and the glorious flag fell into the hands of the enemy. The Freshmen, as usual, made a great mistake in leaving the tree, for as soon as they left they were captured and tied, then carried to the gymnasium. Here they were confined until the fight was over, but not without much trouble, for again and again they would get loose and make a desperate attempt to escape. Just as the contest closed a dozen or more Freshmen did succeed in gettiuj? away, and came rushing to the rescue only to be told that the battle had been fought and the victory won. What the result would have been if these men had arrived sooner is not known, but it is quite evident, they would have made things interesting and delayed the capture of the flag. Now that the fight is over and the Freshmen Class defeated, they are not discouraged, but are looking forward to the time when they will defeat the Freshies of 1910. W. T.

All were happy, all were bright. For the students would get their dues, And would loaf till very late that night Counting the ballots by the pale moonlight For the chapel was empty of pews. We laughed and grinned and all knew why No smoke came from the chimney flues, And when we heard the old clock ring We went to chapel for the fun of the thing, For we knew it was empty of pews. Roll was called, but no song was sung; The teachers faces wore many hues And it began to look like we were stung When the President said from a mighty lung He knew who had stolen the pews. 140 He said that all classes would recite That the Profs, would no one excuse And we found ourselves in a pretty plight, For the faculty said that it wasn ' t right To empty the chapel of pews. So with sighs and groans to class we went, For no one dared refuse ; Many stood up till their legs were hent, And all were willing to repent For stealing the chapel pews. And instead of a day of reclining And the fun that elections infuse. All day we were problems defining And found that our brains were declining For stealing the cha]iel pews. Rut the teachers all had a seat. While the students wore out their shoes, So we very soon saw our defeat And found that ourselves we had beat By stealing the chapel pews. From the top of the hill to the Buffalo ' s shore There ' s nothing we ' ll even abuse. But always honor and even adore Laws that were made in the days of yore So here ' s to the chapel pews. — W. B.

ISO CENTENNIAL ItHripkH nf Iirtst lang-iang The Centennial of The Disciples of Christ WE COME to a llcthany event of the first magnituile in the Centennial Celebraticjn of the Disciples of Christ, which will be held October 11-19, 1909, in Pittsliurg, only because Eethan_ is not large enough to entertain the fifty th.ousand all at once. ' e expect all of tliem to come to Bethany in relays, liethany is universally regarded as the cradle of the Resturation Movement. It is only a few miles over to ' ashington Cijunt} ' , Pa., at which place the Declara- tion alid Address was written. Nearer still is the site of the Brush Run Church, the first of the Movement. About the same distance in the opposite direction at our principal railroad station, is the Wellsburg Church, which lays strong claim to being the second oldest in the brotherhood. Bethany was not only the home throughout his active career of Alexanfler Campbell, the foremost cham- ])ion and lead.er of the Reforniers, but it is tilso his handiwork. He foimded and i)reside l over the College until his death. He built and preached in the church. His mansion with its Lii.v Dcscciidit c Cocio ' ' stud}- is our chief shrine. On the hillside above the old home is the cemetery whose massive stone wall encloses not only Campbell ' s tomb, but those of his father, Dr. Richardson, W. K. Pendleton, W. H. Woolery, J. } L Triljle and many others whose names stir memories of heroism and devotion. The hills and valleys immediately surround- ing P.cthany ncit only inspired poetic sentiments in the students of Alexander Campl)ell, the teacher, but furnished [Kistures for the sheep of Alexander Camp- bell, the farmer. For here was a genius eminently practical in common-place affairs. 152 The Four Pioneers In this year when the hearts of a mihidn ami a half disciples turn toward Ilethany as never before, we can afford to sa} that, although she is pre-eminent in the history of the Refnrmation of the Nineteenth Century, she is neither solitar} ' nor exclusive. For before the Campbells came to America, llarton W. Stone had made in Kentucky virtually the same plea which they were soon to proclaim in Western Pennsylvania. Soon after they began their labors another Scotch Presbyterian of exalted abilit} an l consuming zeal mad.e his home in Pittsburg, and devoted himself to the Restoratii.m of the Primitive church. I ' ' removing later to Carthage, Ohio, and then to Mays Lick, K} ' ., where his tomb stands, Walter Scott unconsciously conferred distinction upon two other local- ities. The real greatness of these four, Thomas Campliell, Barton W. Stone, Alexander Campbell and Walter Scott, is nowhere more strikingh ' manifested than in the harmony with which they co-operated in promoting the grand enter- prise of their lives, and the humility with which each learned from all the rest whatever he himself had failed to discover in the Divine Word. In a ldition to these four, if space permitted, forty other giants of those da3 ' s conkl be named, each of whom manifested a child ' s eagerness to learn and promptness to obey God ' s Will. 153 THJJ FOUR I ' lUNEERS OF THE RESTORATION MOVEMENT Thomas Cani])1ifll was Ixnn in CnuiUy nnwn, Irelanil, Fel ruarv 1, 1763; iiiarric ' .l Jane Ccniciglc, June. 17S7; sailcil fur America April 8, 1807: wrote Dec- laration and Arl( ' rcss in summer of 1809; immersed June 4, 1812. in Buffalo Creek; came to liethany so(jn after the foun(hng of the ISuft ' alo Seminary, in 1819, to assist in this work and made this his permanent home after the death of his wife; presii ' eil at the first meeting of the P.oard of Trustees of Ilethany College. AIa - 11. 18-10; ihed at the home of his son. the r.eth:in ' mansion, in 1854. Alexander Campbell, born September 12. 1788. Country Antrin. Ireland; reached America September 29. 1809; assisted his father in reading the ])roof sheets of the Declaration an! Address in the fall of the same year; married ] Iargaret Rrown, March 12. 1811. at I ' iuft ' ali ), irginia ; ordained to the ministry- January 1, 1812, by the elders and deaci;)ns of the lirush Run church; immersed June d. 1812; foun(!ed I ' luftalo Seminary in 181 ' ' ; began the Christian ISaptist in 182, . which he continued until 1830 and afterward started the Millennial Harbinger: founded Hethan)- College in 1841 ; wrote all his debates and puldica- tions from Bethany; reared his family at Bethany: died at the Bethany mansion IMarch 4, 1866, and sleeps in the Campbell cemetery. 155 THE BETHANY CHURCH The Bethaii} ' congregation, organized aliont 1826, worshiped first in a store huilding out in Mr. Campbell ' s field, l)et veen the road and the old mill. At length they erected a stone church liuilding, which stood about on the same site where the present house of worship stands, but faced differently. The present church, the picture of which appears above, was built prior to 1851, and it was here that Thomas Campbell preached his farewell sermon. He was brought over from the Bethany mansion on a sled drawn along under the shade of the stately row of locust trees on the first day of June, 1851, with Airs. Decima Barclay, only a little girl, walking by his side. His subject was The Two Great Commandments — Love to God and Love to Our Neighbors. The history of this old church is rendered yet more sacred from the mem- ory of a sermon preached by Alexander Campbell before the students of the Col- lege and the members of the community. Dr. Richardson, President Pendleton, President Woolery, Professor Trible, President McDiarmid and others of eminence, whose voices are now hushed, as well as many of the great now living, have stood within its presence and have been heard from its pulpit. 156 ■.-.4.j .4Myifc Alexander Caiuphell ' s Polyglot The Polyglot, of which the accom])an_ ing cut shows the openirig page, was presented by warm admirers of Air. Campbell in Scotland. It was given upon the occasion of his memorable and eventful visit to the land where he gained his university education. The Bible is printed in eight languages. It is now in the possession of Mrs. Decima Campbell liarclay, at the old Campbell mansion in Bethanv, and may be seen at any tinie. It stands as one of the most interesting Bibles of modern date because of its associations. 157 MRS. LiiiCiMA c. ;m] ' I ' .i;li:, ijarclay The sole surviving ilaugliter of Alexander Canipljell, owner and mistress of the Bethany mansion. k THE OLD HOMESTEAD FOR nint3 ' -eight years Bethany mansion has been the home of my deuv father, Alexander Campbell, and his immediate descendants. On the 12th of March, 1811, he was married here (in what is known as the old parlor ), to Miss Margaret Brown, only child of John Brown, and after spendixig a week or two in Washington, Pa., with his father, Thomas Campbell, and family, the young bride and groom returned to this home, which was henceforth occupied by Mr. Campbell, until his death in March, 1866, an unbroken period of fifty-five years, in the home of his heart, that he loved so well, and when his most arduous literary labors were performed, during his long, busy and useful life, of almost seventy-eight years. The little hexagonal study, in the yard, with its light from above, standing among the evergreens, planted by his own hands in 1836, was built in 1840 at the same time the College was built,, but he had. prior to this, taught Buffalo Sem- inary for five years, in this house, had edited the Christian Baptist for seven years, and the IMillinennial Harbinger for ten years, so that a great deal of his writing was done within these walls, and a little study, just across the road in the orchard, which was removed after the buihiing of the present study. His first wife, Margaret, died in 1827, leaving five young daughters, the eldest of whom, Jane, was married at 16 years of age to Albert Gallatin Ewing of Nash- ville, Tenn., just two months after her mother ' s death. His second marriage to Miss Selina Huntington Cakewell of Wellsburg, Virginia, occurred in 1828 giving the sweet young daughters of tender age another devoted mother to watch over and protect them with loving care and affection. Dear old grandfather, Thomas Campbell, lived here for many j ' ears, and was totally blind for three jj ' ears before his death, which occurred on January 4, 1854, and his funeral services were held in the dear old parlor on January 6, when he was laid beside our dear grandmother, in our own Gofl ' s Acre, where she had preceded him nineteen years, having died in 1835. William Pendleton Campbell, the youngest son, owned and occupied the homestead farm after fathers ' death in 1866, until 1880, since which time and up to the present da}- it has been the property of his tenth and youngest daughter, Mrs. Decima Campbell Barclay, so that it has only changed ownership twice in almost a full century! The house in 1811 contained seven rooms, a large base- ment kitchen and room adjoining, a parlor and two bed-rooms on the second floor, and a hall and two bed-rooms on the third floor. It is built of strong oak tim- bers, which are today as good as new, and the walnut weather-boarding, iron hinges and unwrought-iron nails with which it is built, will be good for another century, if properly cared for. In 1819 Mr. Campbell built an addition to his 160 house, consisting of a hall and several large rooms, for lUiffalo Seminrr ' , which was framed in Pittsburg, and lirought down the ( )lii(i riwr in a Ijoat, as was also the old faniii_ ' Grandfather clock. whdch has stoo 1 in the same corner of the dear old mansion for ninety years, an 1 was placed there for t!ie benefit of the pupils of I ' nffalo SeminarA ' , an 1 the old tive-gallon coffee Ijoikr. which gave them their morning bever. ' ge. is still up in the garret, along with the oil spinning wheels and family crai le that has rocke.d e ' ery one of the fourteen children and man - of the gran 1 an! great gran Ichil ' ren ! I Ir. William Thaw (grandfather of llarry Thaw). Mr. Stockliouse an I several other I ' ittsb.u ' g boys, were stut ' ents here in the early twenties, as were also i Ioses Goo 1 an 1 Daniel Edgington, two very disti.iguislied lawyers of Ohio county, ' irgi:iia, and Dr. Joseph I- ' arlcinson, a leading ph_ ' siciaii of ih ' ookc county, a., an ' Wash- ington county. Pa., for fifty } ' ears, was ediucated here. Dr. Parkinson atten ' ing dear father in his last illness. In 1836, four years before the fomv ' iiig of llethany College, feeling the need of more room fijr his increasing fnniil} ' and for the entertainment of his friends and Ijrethren, the new parlor an ' ! two bed-rooms adjoining were Ijuilt, and connectei! with tlie main bui! ' ing !iy the long dining-room, which is 38 feet in length. The parkjr was papered witli Ian ' scape pa])er, firougiit over the mountains from Pliila(!elphia in a covered wagon, and represents tlie Islan ! of Calyso, and the story of Telamachus, whicli jiajier is still on the p.arlor walls and in fairly good condition, after tlie lajise of seventy-tliree years! In tliis Old Homestead have been entertainedi many cHstinguished persons of tiiis an 1 other lands, inrleed the great and the good of the earth here have foun 1 welcome and repose. Two Presidents. James . . Garfiel! an 1 Jefferson Davis, have occupied the President ' s Room, in which hangs a fine |)ortrait of Presi lent Garfield, who was a Trustee of Hethany College and was man_ - times a isitor here. Jeiterson Davis brought his nephew here to College from lississippi in 1845, long years before the Southern Confederacy was ever dreamed of. Judge Jeremit S. Black, . ttcrney General of the 1 ' nited States, and one jf the most eminent lawyers of liis day, was a levotcd frien 1 and admirer, wdio visited here on several occasions, the most notal.de of whic li was when he came from Somerset, Pa., in 1849, to be baptized under tlie clump of Elm trees, in Buffalo Creek, just across the meadow. Ijelow the house, and again, when he came to deliver the address at the unveiling of the marble bust of Mr. Campbell. This bust was made in Elorence. Italy, by Kentucky ' s famous sculptor. Joel T. Hart, and was presented to P etbanv College by Mrs. Selina Huntington Cam]4jell, wiio came to this house a bride on . ugust 1, 1828, and loved its sacred walls until she died here in 18 ' ' 0. almost ninety-five } ' ears ol 1, liaving survived her beloved husband for thirty-one years. 1 lere in early times came often the beloved disciple, Walter Scott, and Samuel Churcli of Pittsburg, grandfather of Samuel Harden Church, the author, who is today one of Pittsburg ' s prominent men; also John T. Johnson and Philip S. Fall of Kentucky, David S. Pionnet, Isaac lol Errett, Harrison Jones an 1 J. P. Roliinson of Ohio, James Cliallcn of Piiilailcl- phia, Robert ' . Ilenley. Peini ' sey Coleman and Dr. Jn sun T. llarelaN ' of luist- ern Virginia, beloved fricn( ' s an 1 lirethren, who have all been numbered long ago among the Sainted ( ' ead. 1 low they once mai ' e the walls of the dear ol 1 parlor echo with their fervent prayers anil songs of ])raise! fohii Dearborn, Moses E. Lard, Alexander Procter, Charles Lewis I oos and J. ' . AlcCiarvey were students here of the long ago, rnd the two last mentionCvl yet survive. Of the fourteen children born in this lionse, twelve now sleep near dear father and mother, in the quiet hillside cemetery; four of them died in infanc ' and youth, but ten grew up to womanhood and manl.ood, l)eneath this roof, and seven daughters went forth happy brides froni the |)iirtals of this dear old homestead. In one ot ( )wen ' estass ' bodks there is a iiathetic description of an old famih ' house d.own in South Carolina that eurresponds in many respects to this dear old homestead, that 1 feel it is most appropriate to quote it here: There stands a quiet house, about which there hangs a gravitw that comes from seeing and suffering much, and sweetness, from having sheltered many generations of smiles and tears. The long linlceil chain of Ijirlhs and deaths here has not been broken and scattered, and the grandchildren look otit of the same wintNjws, from which their grandsires gazed, whose faces, now in picture frames, still watch serenely the busy present from the happy past. Therefore, the rooms lie in still depths of association, and from the walls, the stairs, the furniture, flows the benign influence of undispersed memories: it sheds its teiu])ered radiance upon the old miniatures, and from every fresh flower that comes in from the garden, it seems to pass through the open ( ' oors, to and fro, like a tranquil blessing: it is beyond jo ' and pain, because tiiue has distilled it from both of these: it is the assembled essence of kinshii and blood unit) ' , enriched by each succeeding brood, that is born, is mairiec ' , is fruitful in its turn, and ilies remembered. — D.

Ca V The cause that wc advocate is not our own peculiar, nor thecauspi of any p uty, considered as such , it is a common cause, the cause of Christ and our brethren of all denominations. All that w ' ypre- sume, then, is to do, Nvlut we humbly coiicei }s-jto be our liity, in ' :• connexion with our brethren, to each of whom it e(|u«lly belonss l A f -- ' ' ' ° ' ' i ' exeii tlu-nibciiii.-s ior this blessed purpose. And as we ha e no just reason to doubt the concurrence of our-brethrcn, to accomplish an object so desirable in itsclt, and ' raui;ht with such happy conserjuences , so neither can we look forward to that happy event, which will forever |)ui an end to our hapless divisions, and restore to the church lis primitive unity, purity and prosperity , but; 111 the pleasint; prospect of their heariy and dutiful concurrence. Dearly beloved brethren, why shovdd r:f deem it a thing incredi- ble, thai the chufch of Christ, in this liighly favored country, should resume that original unity, peace, andi urity, which belongs , to its constitution, and constitutes its v;lory ' Or, is there any tlung . ASM y) i that can be justly deemed necessary for this desirable purpose, htif.lri l iL rj. f conform to the model, and adopt the practice, of the primitive uOiJl ' cfiurch, expressly exhibited in the New Testament ' Whatever l Yl ' - atrerations ihisTrughtprfxTuce iii any orltll of the c hurches:, should, ive think, neither be deemed inadmissible nor ineligible. T Surely such alteration uould be every .ay for the better, and X:oi for the vtorse ; unless v. c should suppoL.e the divinely inspired rule to be faulty, or defective. Were we, tlicn, m our church cdhstitinion and managements, to, exhibit a complete conformity to the . posto- (A. church, would we not be in that respect, -as perfect as Christ intended vc shoidd be ' And should not this suffice us ? It is, to us, a pleasing consideration that all the churches of Christ, which mutually acknowledge each other as such, are not only agreed in the great doctrines of faith and holiness ; but are also materially agreed, as to the positive ordinances of Gospel iiisutution ; so that our differences, at most, are about the things in which the kingdom of God does not consist, that is, about mat- ters of private opinion, or htimrHi invention.

Declaration and Address STUDENTS of the first decade in Betlianv College are fond of telling stories of a blind patriarch with silken silvery hair ami gracious mien. Occasionally he preached in IJethany church. More often he presided at the Lord ' s table. Any time between Sunday ' s, Thomas Campbell could be found at the home of his son, Alexander. Those who had received their first impression of this revolutionary religious force from the debates of Alexander Campbell, or the evangelism of Walter Scott, or the polemical periodicals extensively circulated not only by them and by Barton W. Stone, but by several other leaders of the Movement, were surprised to be introduced to this gentle old man as the author of the document which all the Reformers acknowledged as the compendium of their plea. i o today those who have known the IJisciples as a very Ishmael among the religious bodies of America need to read the Declaration and Address to catch the real spirit and genius of the propoganda. It is a plea for peace in the family of God. And we are reminded that the Prince of Peace himself began by causing confusion and strife among the children of men. It proposed not a temporary truce, not a treaty of compromise and convention, but actual and permanent union of all the warring sects. To irnd a sure antl unquestionable basis for this union, it disregarded all human platforms and turned to the Christ himself, and to the teachings and example of his immediate Apostles. After forty years of proving its principles in the crucible of the press, in the arena of public debate, and in the alembic of private discussion, Alexander Campbell said to this document: ;; ( tiiy intercourse zvith the Christian zvorld I have never found a man zcho could offer one objection plausible hi the least to any position taken in the Declaration and Addresses. 167 Bethany ' s Ccmtennial Prospects THR()l ' GHOUT its history students h.ive come n ) to I ' ethany by all roads and from all distances. Grarkiating, they have borne her fame even more widely than she had called, their allegiance. P.eing the original college and for two gen- erations the capital of the lovement, she naturally became not only ALMA MA ' fliR to tlionsan ' ' s kn . L.M. , L.M.VRr.M .M.VTRL ' .M .MATER to tens of thousands. Throughout the Centennial Cam])aign all have argued that whatever else might be done the feast would hick its crowning satisfaction, unless a monu- mental addition were ach ' ed to llethany ' s endowment and equipment. This, not only for what she w;is, Ijut for what she and is tn be. For with all her changing fortunes and grevious trials, no year has passed without the graduation of a class of noble and ]irepared } ' outh. Lately the numbers have greatly increased and the standard that coul 1 not be raised steadily maintained. Ordinary aspirations woul 1 have been satisfied with our President ' s achieve- ment in the completion of the trolley line. P.ut P ethany could not consider this as more than an indispensable means to a necessary end. This was the burden of Commencen:ent 1907. Our venerable . lunnins. W. T. Moore, was its chief spokesman! and became the accredited agent of the Centennial Endowment Cam- paign. . t tlie International Convention of Churches of Christ in Norfolk that year it came up on every hand, its most impassioned, advocate being R. A. Long, tl .e lumber genius of Kansas City. Xow we have the tangible an 1 practical proposition from an unnamed disciple, that he will give $25,000 for every subscribed by others before Oct. L 1909, until $500,000 is raised. The Centennial ([nestion now for every one who loves, or even ajjjjreciates, Pethanv is. shall our friends l:)e compelled to give less than $100,000? 168 The Centennial Convention IN ADDITK ) l() the regular annual sessinns nf llie International Con- vention raised to (he linndredth power, there will lie three da_ -s i.ieeuliar to the Centennial.

The Centennial Communion service Sunday afternoon is anticipated b - those wdio have enjoyed the fellowship of such conventions as those at Cincinnati and St. Louis as the nearest possible earthly approach to the final assembly of the Great luultitiidc which no man can num- ber. Not less than twenty-five thousand people will sit together in this memorial feast. londay, October 18th, will be devoted to a full presentation in all depart- ments of the Teaching Function of the Church of Christ, and Tuesday the 19th, the Centennial Celebration will culminate in a great field day of New ' Testament Evangelism. The purpose is not only to worthil} ' celebrate the century that is closing, but to inaugurate the century ahead in such a way as to greatly accelerate the answer to the Savior ' s prayer in John 17. 1 ' 9 A Campaign of Betterment JUST as America celebrated the four Inindredtli ;iiiiii ' ersar_v oi the con- tinent ' s discovery by a great exhibition of the fruits of the land and jirodncts of its industries, in the City of Chicago, so it was ( ' etermined that the hundredth anniversar_v of the reiliscovery of a lost continent of GoiTs truth shmUd he made memorable by gathering at ] ' ittsl)urgh in 1 ' , ' 0 ' ) reports of unprecedented better- ment in all departments of Christian life and service. ' e humbh- submit to the test: By their fruils yc shall kiio-: them. We claim to ])ossess and to follow the word of God. We seek in the Centennial year to manifest the fruit of the Spirit by realizing or a])proximating as nearly as possible the following: CENTENNIAL AIMS INDIX ' IDL ' AL. 13aily worship in every home. Kach one win one. Two Christian papers, ' tate and national, in every home. Xot less than my income ' s tithe to Gcid. Go 1 my benefactor and ni}- heir. An offering from every disciple to some Christian College. Every home anti-saloon territory. CONGREGATIONAL. All the Church and as man - more in the P.ible School. All the Clun -h in the jirayer meeting. Every C1nn-ch its mission. Every jjreacher preaching. Every Church well-housed; every Church debt jiaid. Every Church in the state co-o])eration. A men ' s organization in ever}- Church. INSTITUTIONAL. The College for the Church, the Church for the College, both for Christ. The American Christian Missionary Society $200,000; 4,000 contributing Churches, 1,000 evangelists. Christian Woman ' s Board of Missions, 8.S women in auxiliaries and circles, $200,000 in new stations. The Foreign Christian : Iissionary Society, $400,000 in 1909, $250,000 for buildings by 1909. 170 A Million Di;)llars in the Chnrcli Ivxteiision Fuml. Relief for all disabled minister, permanent fund, $30,000. The restoration of the inostolie ministry of Ijenevolence, $200,000 added to its permanent fund. GENERAL— TI IIS YEAR. A thousand reeruits to the ministry. Ten thousand organized adult classes. Two Inmdred thousand trained workers. First plaee in Christian Endeavor. Fifty thousand at Pittsbm-gh. Two million dollars for missions, Ijenevolenee and education. The promotion of Christian union Ijy its practice. To stimulate endeavor toward the realization of these aims, a Centennial Bureau has been maintained for four years in charge of R. ' . Warren, Sec- retary, and supported by the co-operation of all the organizations and institutions of the brotherhood. The campaign itself is a vindication of the principle of union. The Secret;iry has traveled thirty-five or forty thousand miles a year visiting conventions and churches, millions of pages of literature have been distributed, including twenty-five thousand copies of the Declaration and Address. The original missionary aim of Sl ' illioii for Missions in 1909 was reached two years ahead of time. The initial teacher-training aim of • ' ' : ' ( ' Thousand Graduates has been multiplied to an enrollment of two hundred thousand. Progress in all directions has been almost equally striking. 171 The Centennial CaniiJaiijn Committee JamI ' S H.G. rris(i. , IvHtor Christian Evaiigx-list, St. Louis, J Io., Ciiairman. Hon.

Centennial Quadrangle IT is more than a happv coiuciilence that one of the greatest cities of America is located within an honr ' s ride of the most histiiric scenes connected witli the inauguration of this Christian L ' nion Alovement. The transportation facihties which put l ittsliurgh ' s timnage far in tlic lead of all world centers will he equally c invenient for assemhling the hosts of i)ilgrims to the Centennial. It seems provi- dential also that within this great city has Ijeen develnpeil a new center of its higher life at the entrance to Schenley Park. x ' o other city in the countr)- could have provid.ed such a magnificent setting for the Centennial Convention. Within this Quai ' rangle are located seven splendid Protestant churches and St. Paul ' s Roman Catholic Cathefh al. Here is the Pittshurgh Conservator} ' of Music, the L ' niversitv Clah ;nd the Pittshurgh Athletic Chdj. The new Ijuillings of the University of Pittsburgh, and the Carnegie Technical Schools exchange the courtesies of t: ' .e morning and the evening from opposite hills. Tlie four angles of the square are marked: First, by Carnegie Institute with its Art Galleries, Museum, Public Library, to whose maintenance the City of Pittsbnigh r pi ropriates S250,COO per year, and Alusic Hall, one of the Centennial Auditoriums. Second, by Duquesne Carden which can be used at will as an auditorium for eight thousand persons, a ddning room fnr half that numljer, or an exhibit hall for the graphic ilisplay nf thi department of the celebration. Tliir ' . tlie Sol iers ' Memorial Idall, which .Mlegheny County is erecting at a cost oi a millic.in and a quarter d.ol ' ars. Fourth, the i«w llaseljall Park, whose million dollar Ampitheater of steel and concrete will be separated into three sections by so.m ' -proof prrtitions. and enclosed on the field side with a canvas wall for the or. ' inary sessions of the Convention, and used in its entirety for the Communion service on the Lord ' s day. r.etween the last two is situate 1 Schenley Motel, one of the finest residence hostleries in j merica, which will be the 1 leai ' qu irters Ihitel for the occasion. 176 THE CEXTEXXIAL QUADRANGLE. Schcnlcy Hotel, Centennial Headquarters. Baseball Amphitheater. Centennial Offices an 1 Ani ' itoriums. Soldieis ' Memorial Hall. Duquesne Garden, Auditorium for 8,000 or Dining Room for 4,000. Carnegie Institnle Miisie Hall, Museum, Library, Art Galleries. The Roll Call of the Million A FREE people makes cf its enterprises whatsoever it will. It adapts plans and programs to its purposes as it chooses, without asking leave of those with whom they orginated. An army enlisted to preserve the union of states did that, but is remembered chiefly for having freed the slaves. No man can tell before- hand what will be the chief feature of a great popular Convention. Every such gathering has its dominant message. Speakers drawn from the four quarters of the earth bring their manuscri])t in their hands and are astonished to find their words fitting together like the ]5icces of Solomon ' s temple. So will be the Cen- tennial. Hut its greatest message will probably be no spoken, eloquent word, but the mute testimony not onl - of tlie fifty thousand earnest souls who are bodily present, but also of the niillicjn who are there in spirit and purpose and tangibly by their names inscribed in the Centennial Roll Hooks. For every congregation, whether in Pennsylvania, India, Australia or Te.xas, is given a book of suitable size in which to record its whole membership. The books will be collected at Pittsburgh before the Centennial to form a montmiental feature of the occasion. Afterwards they will preserve perpetually in a brotherhood depository and a dup- licate copy placed in the Lil)rar} ' uf Congress at Washington. It is a Petition of a million for the righting (if a wrung. It is the acclaim of the million, and of the coming millidus whom we rejjresent for the Cornation of our King. Pittsburgh ' s Hospitality To properly provide tor the comfort and enjoyment of the delegates and visitors, the churches in Vestern Pennsylvania have subscribed a fund of $8,000 and the business interests of the City a larger amount. In addition the Railroad Companies have granted special rates, the hotels arranged for extra accommoda- tions at ordinary prices, and thousands of private homes opened their doors at nominal rates. The hundreds of places of interest, historic, scenic, commercial and industrial about the City will be shown to the Centennial visitors at the most convenient times and umler the most agreeable conditions. The solemn earnestness of the Centennial in its sublime purpose and its awful solitude among the years will not lowered but heightened by the human interest of the delegates in all that pertains to man. Sight-seeing and excursions will abound. Family reunions and college banquets will fill all vacant hours. Side- trips to Niagara, New York i.nd Washington, D. C., will occupy the days that follow Oct. l ' ' th, and many an Old Home H ' cck will be enjoyed, unheralded by any printed program. It is only once in a hundred years! We must be great, but we may also be glad ! 178 Qlentwtttal frngram Monday Evening, October 11. Two Parallel Sessions. Addresses of Welcome, Responses, etc. Keynote Sermons : GeorgB H.

A few color inserts lieve the monotony of black and white pictures and give to your book superb richness. This subject was produced direct from an ordinary photograph and is printed in blue and red. Other happy color com- binations are black and orange, black and green, etc. If interested in color woik you are invited to write for further information and other samples. ' HIS year the STAFFORD ENGRAVING CO. did all the engraving for more than two hundred college and school pub- lications. We should like you to write to the managers of some of them and inquire about our work, our service and our way of doing business. We believe we have made a friend of every manager and editor with whom we did business. Our book of instructions, Engrav- ing for College and School Publica- tions, is indispensable to the staff of any annual or periodical. We spent more than $1,000.00 in pro- ducing this book, but it is free to you. Wiite to us about it. Your work will be made easy by following its in- structions, which are the result of our eighteen years ' experience in doing this kind of work. Stafford Engraving Co, Artists Engravers Electrotypers Century Bldg., Indianapolis Est. 1890 The Engravings for this Annual were made by us. ' ON BIZ .Mmii:mmmmm m mmmmm m m mmim m MMMmmM mmm mi .
