Mossville University of Chicago I Q Our Birthday Gift HE school year just completed will long be remembered as a red Bradley's existence has in turn shown marked advancement over the former ones, but the year of nineteen hundred six and seven qw W' letter one in the history of Bradley Institute. Each year of 5i5.3,,,,..?f,5.. will stand head and shoulders above all others:-it has marked Mrs. Bradley's ninetieth birthday and the tenth birthday of our school, and as a memorial to these great occasions, we have Mrs. Bradley's birthday gift to us-the appropriation for a gymnasium. Was there ever a birthday gift so well suited to the wants and wishes of the recipient as this one? How much we have always longed for just this thing, and how many schools fortunate enough to possess a gym we have secretly envied! And now, in steps our fairy godmother, devines our wish, and grants it beyond our wildest dreams! Best of all, the promise of the gymnasium was a complete surprise to every- one. When Mr. O. J. Bailey made the announcement to us assembled for the Founder's Day exercises, even the Faculty heard the plan for the iirst time, and Mr. Bailey himself had known of it for only a few minutes, for Mrs. Bradley kept her secret until shortly before coming into the Chapel. Not only to the athletic activities of Bradley will the gymnasium be an unlimited benefit, but also to our social life. We shall be brought into closer fellowship with each other through the common pleasures it will afford. And for club or class parties, how good it will be to have some place that we can call our own and not be obliged to depend on some hospitable member's kindness, or resort to a rented hall! Moreover, that dreadful ghost, the Spirit of the Class- room, which sometimes haunts club meetings held in recitation rooms, will never dare to intrude upon us when we meet in the gym. Above all, we shall remember the example of generosity and loving thought- fulness set for us by our gentle founder. May she live to see the full greatness of the blessing she has bestowed upon us.

Hayward o Horological Organizations Athletics Subscriptions Literary Calendar In Memoriam It is an ancient learned Dean, And he stoppeth one of three,- By thy long gray beard and glittering eye, Now wherefore stopp'st thou me? The class-room door is open wide, And cutting is a sing- Besides I know my Deutsch to-day, So, truly, ich muss hin! He holds him with his stern, cold eye:- My office, sir quoth he, ls where thou'llt spend this hour, methinks, In t6te i. t6te with me! Thy sudden virtue cannot fool So wise a Dean as I, 'Tis not the class-room that attracts,- 'Tis the otlice thou wouldst fly! ' He leads him to his office drearg The student's blood runs chill,- He follows meekly as a child - It is the Dean's stern will. He sits upon the chair's mere edge, He cannot choose but hear, And thus spake on that learned man, The Dean, so sage and sere: Thy classes thou hast daily cut, And sometimes two or threeg And now the dreaded time has come For reckoning with mel ll Thy lessons poor and poorer grow, They're nothing now but blulfg And of such stunts as yours, I say, We've surely had enough! The student madly tears his hair, Yet cannot choose but hear, And thus spake on that ancient man, The Dean, so sage and sere: Last quarter thou didst get a 'Hunk,' Two 'cons' and an 'incomplete':- 'Tis all because thy mode of life Is just a bit too fleet! He learneth most who worketh most On things both great and smallg But as for thee, my dear young sir, Thou workest not at all l So now my patience is quite goneg I tell thee once for all: This very morning thou shalt say Farewell to Bradley Hall! He went like one who hath been stunned From out that odice doorg And since that day his merry laugh Rings through the halls no more! S. J. Grant. if K. G' I , X11 l' 1 1 ww A.

Its excellence is unsurpassable I Lilian Bartson Wilson: The only thing lacking to make this magazine the equal of the 'Ladies' Home Journal' is a department devoted to up-to-date em- broideryf' Bobby Plowe and Francis Bohl: It's nothing but a collection of slams and knocks! The International Studio: Certainly the extensive Art Department of this monthly is to be highly commended. The Polyscope: A good annual may still redeem the reputation of the school. James Harvey Robinson: Though not by any means an epoch-making publication, this peri- odical is interesting as showing the general reform tendencies of the times. Dr. Wyckoli': By far too prone to make inaccurate and absurd statements! Gypsy Smith: There could not be a more moral paper. It makes excellent read- ing for the growing minds of these innocent young students. George Mahle: I can see opportunities for improvement along all lines. Benjamin S. Beecher: I agree with Baron Munchausen exactly. Our Clubs On Monday night there's Bible Class, Y. W. C. A., On Tuesday night there's Arts and Crafts:- We potter with the clay, And Wednesday comes Debating Club,- We dare not cut, you seeg The rules are all so very strict That surely dropped we'd be. The English Club's on Thursday night, With Browning and such eatsl And Friday we may dance-perhaps- Or watch athletic feats. The Engineering Club then claims A Saturday morning-hour, To see some factory's wheels go round Where lofty smokestacks tower. Besides these others, History Club Must have its time and placeg And olf to Pedagogic, too, We often have to chase. There's Bird Club, steady as the sun, Each morn from six to eight, And Chorus, if we'd keep in time, Cannot afford to wait. There's many more, but one small rhyme Will not record them all. If ever folks were clubbed to death 'Tis we of Bradley Hall. S. J. G 7 X Y, L1 The Y. M. C. A. 55 , GQ.

During its short and turbulent life it attracted perhaps more attention than any other organization in Bradley. The Quorum was formed of the four Debating Clubs, any member of one of them being a member of the new organization. Its purposes were, first, to stimulate a greater interest in debating and, second, to drill members in parliamentary law. Under the first head came the picking of a school debating team. The method was to have a series of debates, first between each two of the four clubs, then between the best debaters of these inter-club contests. So the Bradley Debating Team, consisting of George C. Mahle, Laura E. Geach and Willis B. Coale, was chosen. In its second purpose, the Quorum was found to be a failure. Robert's Rules of Order was studied and discussed, but in so large a body it was impossible for such a discussion to be very beneficial. After the choosing of the Debating Team, the Quorum also failed as a promoter of interest in debating. The result of these failures was the growth of a feeling that the Quorum was doing nothing for its members that might not be accomplished by a less cumbersome organization, or one with broader purposes. After much heated discussion, which occupied the greater part of three meetings and afforded more parliamentary practice than all the former meetings had given us, it was finally voted to dissolve the Quorum, leaving matters of inter-club management in the hands of a committee, to be chosen by and from the different clubs. In this way there will be more system in club debating, and the committee will also arrange for such inter-club debates as may be necessary to continue the Bradley Debating Team. While the fate of the Quorum was being discussed, attention was called to the lack of a literary society in Bradley: that is, an organization which will encourage original work in play-, poetry-, and story-writing, as well as debating. It was undesirable to turn the Quorum into such a society, as many of its members were interested only in debating, but the discussion led to a meeting of those who were interested in the formation of such a society, and the matter was put into the hands of a committee which is now working out a plan. Certainly the Quorum should not be looked upon as a failure, for it accom- plished several things: it brought the debating clubs together, and at the same time stirred up rivalry between them, it established a school debating team and prepared us for contests with other colleges next year, and it led to the forma- tion in the near future of a Bradley literary society. s. 1.0.

When Autumn brought around that day, On which begins all care, A One morning bright I wandered forth, The Bradley Profs to dare. 2. I first hung up my coat and hat, And smoothed my stubborn hair, Then went up to the first floor hall To view the girlies there. 3. I looked down at my little card: In Latin I was dueg I meekly asked a student hold, Please, where's room twenty-two? 4. He stared at me, then smiled, then laughed, Aha, a freshman new! And with a condescending nod Was gone. Where's twenty-two? 5. Humbled, squelched, subdued, distrait, I walked on down the hall, And dropped into the nearest seat, To ponder on it all. 6. A gentle touch upon my arm, O tie, morose thoughts, tie, So I turned up a smiling face- And met a stern Prof's eye. 7. Your study room P he briefly asked. My study what? I said. Just come with me, he soft repliedg To room fourteen he led. 8. In room fourteen I stayed an hour, And studied hard? Oh no I Though when that dreary time was up Most gladly did I go. 9. I stopped before the letter rack, Aha! my name I spied: And with an all-important air To Dean of Men I hied. 10. That Dean did rake me fore and aft, And at my story scoff, Why had I cut that Latin class P WVhy had I sassed that Prof? 11. With humbled heart and bended head, I hastened out that door, When oh -- I bumped into my Prof And almost knocked him o'erl 12. He grabbed my quaking shoulder hard, Your name? he asked me, Quick ! ' Mi- Mister Jones, I stammered out, And in my heart felt sick. . 13. He started for that awful place Whence I had come before, My courage sneaked out both my boots Could mortal man stand more? 14. I reached my locker in the hall, My hat and coat I got, I left that realm of books and deans, Where I was wanted not l Gordon G.

I L If at A Night Song Come now, my friend, and we'll sail tonight In the slendering-keeled new moon, We'll rival the orbs in aerial flight, Do homage to Jupiter throned in his height, Circle round ringed Saturn in reckless delight, To heavenly cadence atune. Magic power of desire scatters thin space in rout, We Hoat in the misty above. My partner in bliss, throw a glance round about- There, and there, are the bounds of our love. Count every bright fire in the high Cie! of blue, Ah, One, give me sight of your eyes- A thousand times lovelier, tenderer, true The soul light within ventures out to my view, Might I always look into the sweet heart of you, And be with you here in the skiesl J.

Lidle and the management of Harold Lynch, had one of the best and most prosperous seasons in the history of the Institute. The team, while lighter than usual, played a fast and heady game. In all the games played, they were outweighed in every instance by their opponents. ' Of the seven games played this season live were won, one tied and one lost.

After a few diliiculties in forming the team had been adjusted, the team rounded into fairly good form. The season was evenly balanced in regard to games and points won and lost. Of the thirteen games played, seven were won and six lost. Bradley scored 310 points, while their opponents scored 308 points. December IS January S January ll . January 25 January 26 .

The team played twelve games up to the printing of this book and lost only one game, the first, and then won eleven straight victo- ries. On the annual spring trip, they played Hedding, Monmouth, and Jubilee Col- leges and won every game. The first two games should show the playing ability of the team. The team hit the ball hard all season and fielded the ball equally as well, every man playing together with the others, thus giving the pitchers the best of support. From the outlook at present, Bradley should hold the college championship of Central Illinois. H The Scores Bradley . 5 Ami' 11 ' At Home ' ' Illinois College 10 A Ar ':,:f::.r...,t , 13 April 20 .

The New Gymnasium URRAH for the Gym! The Dog House will be no more. At last Bradley is to have the one thing she lacks to make school life complete. Through the generosity of Mrs. Bradley a big gymnasium, equipped with all modern conveniences and facilities, will soon be erected. The site chosen is on the campus directly north of the athletic field. The interior plans as drawn up, provide for a swimming pool, showers, lockers, bowling alleys, a regulation basket ball court and other equipments which will make it complete in every sense. The exterior is to be finished in grey stone with a red tile roof similar to the present buildings. A part of the 375,000 set aside for the gymnasium, is to be used for improving the athletic field. An iron fence is to be built, new bleachers erected, the field tiled and drained, a cinder running track constructed, and numerous other improvements which will make it first-class in every respect. The growth of Bradley has been almost phenomenal. It has been admitted to be a complete school, and is regarded as the equal to any polytechnic school in the country. But in spite of all this, one branch of school life, athletics, has not gone forward as it should. The fault lies not in the support of the stu- dents, the faculty, or the public, it can be explained largely by one little phrase, No Gymnasium. Now we are to have a gymnasium and without doubt Bradley will take her place as the best all-around school in Illinois. The gymnasium is not to be exclusively for the boys, the girls or the fac- ulty. It is to be a Bradley gymnasium, in the fullest sense of the word. Everyone who goes to Bradley will use and enjoy it. The erecting of the gymnasium is a great step forward for the school. Some day students will l look back and see that this was one of the most profitable things in the history of Bradley Institute. Although the new gymnasium is welcomed with gladness, there are those who will see the passing of the Dog House with regret. They remember how we Went there day after dayg how the coaches used to talk to us before a gameg how, tired and hot and dirty, we splashed and sang after a victory, or perchance if it were a defeat, how sullen we all were as we silently dressed, hardly speaking to one another, only wishing with all our hearts to get out of there and forget it all. Every hook upon the wall, every niche, every cranny has a memory and a story of its own. It is sad to see the old days pass, but the old must give place to the new for the sake of those who come after us. May the new gymnasium be a forerunner of a greater and better Bradley in the years to come. .. was . D-1fi.x1gfg: '- -, .-62' aah M Bradley Athletics, 1907 'HE past year at Bradley has been a notable one in athletics. Never has the Institute had occasion to be prouder of her representatives in every field of sport. In the fall we had the finest foot ball team in the history of the school. They made a splendid showing, winning six out of seven games, a record bound to stand for some time. At the end of the season came the foot ball ban- quet, the tribute of the students to the efforts of the team. One hundred and fifty loyal students gathered round the board in the historic lunch room and made the welkin ring with applause for the successful season. It was a great day for Bradley and for athletics. No less happy was the basket ball season. True, we did not win from High School, but that event was in a class by itself. There was no sting in that defeat. With the spring came base ball and track and here Bradley not only kept up her reputation of the preceding months but even went one better. Three events stand out in relief against all others: the double defeat of High School at base ball and the winning from Eureka College in track. No one who was not present at that first awful foot ball game with High School can realize how sweet those victories tasted. No wonder the bleachers were burned. Such playing reminds one of the good old times of Lackersteen and Deacon Miller,', when Bradley held the championship. The track team have played a mean trick on the student body this spring, by keeping their virtues concealed. From the score of the big Interscholastic meet it would be hard to tell that Bradley had a track team. What a pleasant surprise it was to see them come out a few weeks later, and romp away with Eureka to the time of 60 to 44. This was the first duel meet Bradley ever won on her home grounds, and so stands as an epoch in Bradley track athletics. Behind all this outward show, howeverjthere lies a deeper reason-school spirit. It is school spirit that makes men get out and toil, night after night, to make the teams what they should be. It is school spirit that makes the students come out and root at the games, whether we win or lose. Indeed when all is said and done, it is school spirit which makes Bradley athletics what they are, the best and clean- est athletics in Central Illinois.

The Bradley Debating Team of 1907 The past year is the first in which an official debating team has been organized at Bradley. To select the team inter-club debates were first held. The Institute Debating Club defeated the Bradley Club, and the Girls' Club defeated the Bradley Debating and Literary Society. Then the three participators in each inter-club debate, whom the judges considered the best, were selected to debate before the Quorum. From these six, the team of three was selected. The Institute, the Bradley, and the Girls' Club succeeded in getting one representative respectively, on the team. As the team was organized late in the season, we were unable to get debates with other institutions, although Knox and Illinois Normal were tried. Instead of outside debates, various ones were held within the school. The plans for the next year include the selection of two teams, one to debate at home, the other abroad. A debating league with other institutions will probably be formed and a series of debates to decide the championship will be held. Only a start has been made as yetg we hope for great things of this Bradley Debating Team in the future years. if-W l . 4.44 Horace Book III, Ode I lt is the haughty tyrant's ancient right To be feared by noble and the common herd, But over him, supreme God reigns on high And rules his every action with a word. One man may plant his vines in longer rows, One, nobler born and with a fairer name, May seek the field of politics, and write His name among the candidates for fame. 'Tis all in vain, for with impartial rule, Necessity allots the fate of high And low alike, and favors not the rich Nor heeds the miser's greedy cry. Not singing birds, nor music of the lyre, Not banquets rich nor mellow wine, blood red, Can give repose to one above whose neck An unsheathed sword hangs by a slender thread. Not poppy nor the skilled physician's art Lull him to sleep, engrossed by constant care. Sleep does not scorn the rustic peasant's home Nor leave his humble board for richer fare. Whose wants are bounded by necessity, Whose heart escapes the constant lust for more, ls not distressed by thoughts of dreaded Hoods, Nor worries lest the coming crop be poor. And I would rather be the monarch now Of that small, happy realm we call the home Than hold the ruler's wide-extended power And wear the royal purple gown in Rome.

Further information on the matter can be had from any member of the Ladies' Engraving Society. Bennie Dietzel said that a base ball gave him his black eye. Bennie is quite a joker on those matters.

The making of a Swiss bridge did not agree with Harry Wynn, so he turned the job over to the Marsh Bridge Go., who are putting in Peoria's free bridge. Prof. Gordi said: If you will put my picture in the Polyscope, I will get a new one taken, pay for the cut and furnish a complete history of my past life free. Now, don't think that I am begging you to do it, but if you should want to, you certainly have my permission. Gaston: What are you doing Golden, building a cross? Highsmith has had trouble making his hat fit since Prof. Hart let him fill his place for a day and a half. Gossett and Hamilton are to be congratulated on being fortunate enough to get steady company at Hoopeston. Cupid has joined the Merry throng at Virginia Beach where he can be found on any Saturday Cor Sundayl during the summer. Watchmaking is a trifle slow for Paul. Johnny Shortpants advertised in the January Tech for a pair of suspenders in good working order and offered to trade a fine patent detachable necktie for same. The tie has disappeared and the ad brought good results. Dietzel: You are a good fast Workman alright, Howard, but you spend all your time on the floor looking for things. Haman left engraving a few days ago for his home in Fremont, Neb. The reason for his sudden departure is inside the pretty scented envelope he received the day before. Congratulations Heinie. Rev.

Anyone wishing any information on 100-yard dashes, please call on the Champion of Bradley Instructors, Mr. A. T. Westlake. In the recent races our runner beat them all. His record is said to be 5 2-5. The new gray suits of the Horological baseball team are no Joners. The score of the Hrst game played in them being 14 to 4 in favor the Horologs. Manager Sloan says that we can expect the White Sox of Chicago in a few weeks at Bradley Campus , Rev Gaston wants to know if Cordi was really born on Friday the 13th. Gossett is trying to introduce Mormonism to the B. H. I. students. A terrible accident happened to Georgia in C room the other day which might have cost him his life. He was fitting a hairspring to a watch, when, without any warning whatever, the end of the spring came loose, flew thru the air and struck J L Fry was summoned and he quickly made an examination, but finding no bones fractured and no other serious injury, he allowed his patient to resume his work at his bench immediately. L Fink is preparing to leave about July lst for his home in Jerusalem. He expects to be gone all summer. Highsmith being undecided which way his wheel cutter was turning put his thumb against it to find out without stopping the lathe. Of course he found out, but he has been carrying his thumb in a sling ever since. Owing to the great fright of Mr. Masters over a bug, one of the boys in Engraving got a week's vacation this spring.

' 'ff e - , 5 k fill A 0 f L-. , , My - ,L fi ' morning I was standing in the garage alone. My master did not seem to need a four-cylinder Winton that morning, so I was getting a rest from the strenuous life of a motor car. If the transmigration of souls as Cas master calls itj is true, in my next existence I shall change from a motor car to a peanut roaster. But I have the dearest and best master. He never wrenches my head off by a sudden stop, nor almost breaks my wheels by skidding and he wouldn't think of making me go up a steep hill on the high speed, so I guess I can hardly complain. And then I have three dear friends, especially Prex. Well as I started in to tell, I was free the entire day and that evening about 7 eleven o'clock Prex came in. He was a big six-cylinder touring car, and as he puffed to his place I noticed a happy tone in his chugging. But before I could say more than a welcoming Honk, the other members of the bunch came in: Legs, a humorous little runabout, and Rue, a reserved and sometimes snappy Packard. QI sometimes think that Rue hasn't been treated just right, although his present master is very kind to himl. After we had all settled down, Prex began, and I could tell from his tone how eager he was, This evening, when master,- Well,I think that we have the hnest masters in the world, interrupted Legs, how much they do for us. Yes, honked Rue, that's true, I delight in running over anyone else, but I certainly love master. Then Prex tried again, If it were necessary, I'd tell you what I think of mine, but you all love the Boy Qas we called Prex's masterl. So here goes again with my story. Master and I have been rather pleasant to an awfully dandy girl over at the Park, you know, and this evening we went to take her for a spin. I could see that the Boy was rattled for he was very nervous and his hand on the throttle trembled It s a good thing I knew the way or we d never have reached Miss Cofter s But after she was in the car and sitting next to him Goodness' I did the careful work If I d gone where master wanted me to go Id now be decorating the weather vane on the cathedral I never saw anyone so careless But I swear on my transmission that the girl was a dandy I wish the Boy would marry her I d take care of em while in the car at least I like to feel her reclm mg on my cushions, and if she would forever Here we all laughed, for he was as much in love as his master 3 7 Q . , . 0 . 1 Q n ' 3 3 ' 9 u 1 . . . . n , , . . . Q Q 0 ' . . . ,, . The next week my master, the family, and I were to start on a long tour, so I was kept busy getting ready to go. One morning just before we left, I saw Legs. You ought to see Prex, he honked, he's so dead in love that he took Eve gallons of vinegar for gasoline, the other day. Then we left on our tour and although we had a fine time, I was glad to get back. It was over a week before I saw Prex, though, for he was kept very busy, guess he enjoyed it however. One evening he came in last of all and as he took his place we could see he was happy. Oh Bunch! he began, its settled. What, asked Legs, your tire troubles P Think of it, she said 'yes,' answered Prex. O, give us the story, honked Rue and I. To-night,'f Prex began, we went to Miss Cofter's as usual and took her for a ride. It's a dandy moonlight night and I guess that and her presence must have affected us, for presently while on a lonely drive in the park, master slowed down and then-I really don't know what happened, I was so happy, but the Boy and Edith took a very long time to say good-night. But just think, I shall carry her around until I'm dead! She's to be my mistress. Won't I be glad to work my six cylinders for her! Guess I'm the luckiest car that ever ran on tires. Hum, said Rue, congratulations, Lucky car, honked Legs and I. But, continued Rue, no spooning in my tonneau. Once I was fool enough to take out a giddy young couple. All they did was to have a sort of cooing dove performance. Made me sick. I skidded around corners and struck bumps so hard, they certainly didn't have a comfortable time, even if it was sweet. Rather hard on my tires, though. Guess it was, answered Legs, if you're not more careful, you'll have to be retired. For about two weeks Prex was the happiest car I ever knew. Once I met him with his master and Miss Cofter. His welcoming honk was full of exultation and from the way his exhaust sounded, I thought he must be thinking of flying. Every evening he went to his place with an energetic dart, every morning he was full of frolic. Prex was loving life. One day he told me, Wim, you really can't know how happy I am. Legs couldn't help joking about Prex's case, although he was very glad for Prex's sake CI sometimes wonder if Legs will ever fall in love. A car gets just like his master and since Legs is owned by a bachelor, I guess he's immune.D All Prex would talk about was our Edith, and we often fixed up playful schemes to change the subject. One evening, as Prex began to talk of Edith, Legs and I got into a spirited discussion with Rue about the presence of motor cars on Jupiter. Rue said they'd freeze their coolers up there, while Legs declared that air- cooled cars would like the climate, of course it made lots of difference to us whether or not Jupiter had automobiles, but we had to have our joke on Prex. But poor Prex, his joy was not to last long. He had told me that Edith was going to sail for Europe in about a week and so was getting ready. He was a very busy car until she sailed but after that he was at leisure. One afternoon, about three weeks after Miss Cofter's departure, Prex came into the garage with the most woebegone, hopeless expression I ever want to see. Silently as if in a stupor he went to his place and neglected to even notice me, his best friend. What could be wrong? When Legs came in I asked him. He couldn't tellg neither could Rue. Next morning master came in to get me. He was sitting in my driver's seat, reading a paper, while waiting for my tires to be inflated. Suddenly he jumped up and shouted to a friend of his, Listen, 'The marriage of Miss Edith Cofter to Lord Merkel was solemnized last Monday at high noon!' I guess that was Fred's betrothedf' The secret was out at last. Poor, poor Prex! How I hated that woman. I told Legs and he was almost raving in his anger. ' Damn 'em, he said, they're a faithless, fickle sex. I'll run over every specimen that I see hereafter. But after our anger, came pity, sorrow for poor Prex and the Boy. No more did Prex run out of the garage full of vigor, but he left mechanically, frequently forgetting to explode a charge and then suddenly remembering. He neglected his personal appearanceg where once was polished nickel and a bright radiator, we now saw scratches and mud. And his master was just the same. The blow had totally unnerved both of them. Often he got Prex and together they'd go for a drive, far away from everybody else. Prex talked but seldom, but once he seemed unable to keep his grief to himself. Wint, he said, I can't stand this any longer. When master and Igo out for a drive he talks to me of her, and between sorrow for him and grief at losing her, I'll go insane. Sometimes he says, ' Old fellow, we've lost her. You'll never carry us two again. She's been false, false.' He often sighs and once I felt a tear on my steering wheel. Oh God! Prex stopped with a sob. How I pitied the poor fellow. Legs and I tried our best to get him to brighten up, even Rue took to telling funny stories, but all we did was useless. Sometimes, as a sort of reward for us, Prex would smile such a sorrowful smile, that we'd turn away with a lump in our cylinders. One morning, I shall never forget. Prex and his master left early. Prex acted very queerly that morning. He bade each of us a long farewell and as he left the garage he honked a last sad good-bye. Sorrowfully we watched him dis- appear. He ran along so hopelessly and woebegone. That evening Prex did not return and I was a little surprised but not particu- larly worried for I thought they might have gone on a sudden tour. The next morning master and I want for an early drive. We started out for what is called the Ravine. This is a very deep gully right alongside the road, which at this point makes an abrubt curve. As we neared the Ravine I thought I saw some- thing at the bottom of the gully and on getting closer I saw what it was. It was Prex, but how! Mangled, twisted and broken, he little resembled the Prex I used to know. Under the car, with his face gory and his mouth open in a ghastly grin, lay the Boy. Both were dead. Skidding, was the first horrified remark of my master. Back we sped to town for help-useless help. Skidding, was everyone's verdict. But I knew better. Just before we had turned for town I saw the track of Prex's tires and they were not broader than usual and they led straight to the edge. Prex, more- over, knew the road too well to be caught. No, Prex and his master had decided to die together. Sadly I went to the garage and told the Bunch. From that time we have not laughed.- Sometimes when we three are together, we glance over at the vacant place of the fourth and then-silence. The former cheeriness of Legs is gone and Rue is more silent than ever. Yesterday afternoon I thoughtl saw Prex down town among the crowd. I was thinking so much of him that a street car almost caught me, but I escaped with a moment to spare. Some day there will not be a moment to spare and then I hope I may meet the old, dear, happy Prex again, as happy as he was before he met that accursed woman. George C. Mable.

Thick set with moaning reeds. Dank mists rose up and dimmed my sight White-bellied snakes swam back and forth, And hid the rocky steep. With eyes like shining beads. Around the foul and reeking bog, A winding footpath led. About it twisted fetid grass The oozing mud had fed. Beyond the pool, beyond the reeds The sun shone dull through fever mist There gaped a cavern's mouth. The air took way my breath. Between two mighty rocks it yawned Within the loathsome dismal vale And faced upon the south. I felt slow curse and death. Methought I heard the clank of steel My limbs grew cold and numb. A voice came out the Autumn wind He's come. He's come. He's come. I saw a dark and gloomy knight He stood before the gaping hole Upon a coal black steed. Three times he cried aloud, He rode with head in silence bent A very strange and dismal fear To me he paid no heed Hung o er me like a cloud The knight would fam turn back his way But hope of life was gone For all the evil deeds he d done Rose up and thrust him on . , . . . I ' 7 . -We ' 'A ' ., ,, , ---..-.--H-ve.- The pit now yawned, the man did shrink, His doom before him lay. A voice came out the Autumn wind He's fey. I-Ie's fey. He's fey. The sun moved back, the heavens reeled, Then life returned, the mists grew thin Black mists rolled round my head, I saw the darkened hole. I shut my eyes, my senses left, The fated knight was there no more I swooned and lay as dead. My heart grew black with dole. I heard a headlong rush of hoofs A sad voiced woman's cry. She rode upon a milk white steed, Red streaked with blood on thigh. Fair formed was she and gentle faced, In cavern's mouth the woman looked, But full of sad remorse. And knew her lord was dead. With dulling hope and saddest mein, Among the sighing reeds she fell, She leaped from olf her horse. Her :arms above her head. Would God, she cried, quick death might come To sulf'ring me on earth. The life I loved has gone from me I know no joy or mirth. 'My lord has died because of sin, The sun moved back, the heavens reeled But I must pay the cost. The woman mourned her mate. For I shall live and sulfer pain A voice rose out the Autumn wind, Because his soul is lost. 'Tis fate. 'Tis fate. 'Tis fate. I lay upon a Bat topped rock, Within the valley deep. Dank mists rolled up and dimmed my sight. And hid the rocky steep. Herbert A. Kellar i The Feast of Shuhwendou The Chino-Japanese war had just begun and many discharged American naval officers were enlisting with the Japs. Tompkins and I had been classmates at Annapolis and so when Idecided to go, I had little trouble to persuade him to accompany me. Soon after arriving in Japan, we enlisted. The ollicer with whom we treated, invited us to attend a banquet to be given the following even- ing. Tompkins and I thought this was perfectly natural, since Americans were held in great esteem, and so the next evening we went to the banquet. After a few strange Japanese words we took our places. Everything was mysterious. On a sort of platform, in the middle of the table, was placed a large cannon, wreathed with cherry blossoms. The hall itself presented a ghastly appearance. The walls were black and funereal festoons hung from the corners. There were no windows and the pale rays from the black candelabra were the only light. The table linen instead of being white was black and a soft black car- pet covered the floor. Nothing relieved the somberness of the scene, except the few cherry blossoms. A sort of dismal foreboding came over me and I wished we had not come. But the voice of a Japanese officer drew my attention. Gentlemen, he said, we are come together to celebrate the feast of Shuhwendou. It is celebrated every hundred years and is as old as the world. In order to bring success to Japanese arms, it is necessary that some human life be sacrificed. The cannon in the center of the table is on a level with our heads and is loaded. It will begin revolving when the soup is brought in and at some time during the banquet it will be fired. Perhaps we may all escape, perhaps one of us will die. Chance will decide. Every face became ashen-gray. Some men cowered low in their seats others glanced at the door and one arose. Gentlemen, again spoke the Japanese, at the doors are armed sentries. The first to leave his seat will be shot. What an awful trap Tompkins and I had entered: that here in a foreign land we should shake dice with death! The soup was brought in and during an awful silence, the cannon began slowly to revolve. Iheard someone laugh nervously, then all was still with the stillness of a tomb. Now that fatal mouth, dark and terrible, was pointing toward me. Had it stopped moving? Thank God, it had passed on. It kept on revolv- ing and revolving. The next course was brought in, but no one ate. That horri- ble death there in the center was too near, too imminent. I saw Tompkins as if through a fog, staring at me from across the table. Would our relatives ever know how we had died, butchered as a sacrihce in a heathen rite? But we must play the man. We were Americans. Besides we had equal chances of life with the others. Tompkins and I were only two among one hundred. Still the cannon turned. The courses were brought in one after the other, but there was no sound, nothing to disturb the' grewsome silence. How many more times would the cannon revolve? Now it was pointed at me again. Was that a click? Would it be fired now, while turned on me? Again the cannon turned on, as it seemed to have been doing for ages. Iwondered what kind of food we were having. Nervously I tried to drink. Then suddenly a loud concussion shook the room. The cannon had been fired. Oh! who was killed? Was anyone? Was it Tompkins? Would the smoke never rise? Oh God! if it were Tompkins! I saw a vacant place where he had been sitting, but it was still too hazy to tell anything. We had all sprung up. Someone had been killed. There it lay lifeless, bloody. I crowded closer. The smoke lifted. It was Tompkins. 7 George C. Mahle. From Homer's Iliad These, then they summoned, and quickly the soldiers assembled. While 'round about Agamemnon, the Zeus fostered leaders, Marshal them eagerly, Then the bright eyed Athena Having her zegeus so precious, ageless aud deathless, From which suspended hang golden cords, just one hundred All closely woven and each of a hecatomb's worth, Quickly with this through the host of Achaiaris she rushes Urging them forward. And into the heart of each soldier Places a longing unceasing to fight and to conquer. Sweet is the fight to them, nor do they long any more Homeward to sail. Home, in their hollowed out vessels. George C. Mable. Visua Mortis HAD fallen asleep in my own room-one sultry night, after a few hours of restless tossing. When I awkened, I tried to move, but seemed to have lost control of my limbs. My hearing was dulledg my vision, blurred and indistinctg my breath came in gasps. I lay in a half stupor-unconscious of my surroundings except that there was ll,-.H il Eff' a murmur of voices near me. After a time, I realized that I was in a strange room, very bare and white, and different from the one in which I had fallen asleep. Where am I? I tried to say. The words came in a hoarse whisper. At the sound of my voice, a tall, white-capped woman stepped to the bedside, and looking intently in my face, laid her hand on my wrist. As she did so, the murmur of voices drew nearer and a group of people came and stood about my bed, looking down at me with sad faces. I saw without surprise that they were relatives and friends. As I wondered at their sadness, the woman turned to them, and I heard her say: ' It is the end. What could she mean? The end of what? Y! I tried to ask, my lips moved, but no sound came. My sister came closer and spoke to me, but I could not answer. She took my hand but it gave back no pressure, I stared dumbly up into her face. She dropped sobbing to her knees and buried her face in my pillow. Someone began to sing softly My Old Kentucky Home, and as one by one the rest took up the air with broken voices, the thought flashed into my mind, I am dying! but I felt no pang of fear or terror. As I listened to the faltering tones and my sister's sobs, I thought: Poor things how sad that they must stay, and only I go! for I thought they were sad because they could not die too As the song drew to an end, I sand to myself Now now I shall die, while the watchers whispered, She is going I closed my eyes and held my breath My head swam The circle about the bed drew closer, and as the last words of the refrain were dying away, I thought I shall die with the song and I was glad ! - . Q 4. - ,, . - 54 Q ! ' !! s Q u o . . . s CG ' ' 5, , n But suddenly my heart which had been beating so faintly began to pound, my temples throbbed, my throat felt tight and strangled. I caught my breath again with great gasps. After a moment my breathing became regular once more, my heart ceased to pound, and as I listened to its faint regular beating I wondered if Iwas not to die as I had hoped. I realized that I had marred the beauty and dignity of my death scene by failing to pass gracefully away at the close of the song, as my relatives had expected. I opened my eyes and saw them all standing there watching me intently, and as I looked they began again the refrain- Weep no more, my lady! Oh, weep no more to-day, and I said to myself, They have given me another chance. This time I shall not fail, and closed my eyes again. As before, everything grew black about me, and all sounds died away, but this time I had no sense of suffocation. I seemed to be floating off into space and a great peace came over me. As I was losing consciousness, a face seemed to shine out on me through the blackness, strange, yet known to me of old-a face I had often dreamed of-so real- so natural - that I started and opened my eyes. Through the greyness that oppressed me, I saw it still-the face of a man, who stood with folded arms and bent head- his face white and drawn-his burning gaze fastened on me. Beside him, all the others faded into the background-they seemed only shadows. Under the intentness of his look-sensation returned to me. I must not die. I would not die. With a cry I sprang up, pushed away my startled relatives and ran to his side. Don't look so, I begged, shaking his arm, I am not dead. Do you hear? I am here, alive, for you ! With a great sob, he gathered me in his arms. As I looked up and saw the light of his great love shining down upon me- I awoke to find myself in my own bed. My sister was kneeling beside me. What is it dear? she asked. You cried out in your sleep. Are you ill ? I turned from her sadly, No, I answered, only - dreaming. Helen S. Mills.

One more night to lie in the canoe and gaze upward at stars and moon and silvery cloud and listen to the little sound of the water and the faint voices of the frogs far off in the marshg one more sunrise over the lake, with its hour of morning breeze and its wakening call to all the daytime wild things, a few more hours in the sun-steeped woods, to coax the shy inhab- itants to close, half-friendly indifference,-or to run crashing down a hillside and learn from their frightened scurrying that they paid me the tribute of fearg and then, last of all,-the lake again and one more sunset! After that, I must go back to the city and the everyday business of commonplace things. If I should come back here again in a week or two, how changed it all would be!

I should hear everywhere the shouting and laughter of human voices, instead of the soft murmur and music of plant and animal creatures. Impatient children would tear loose the tough branches of the great grape-vine on the sycamore to make swings of, and the cat-tails at the river's edge would be broken and cut away.

Long ago it slew my father. With his last breath he bade me keep it and some day take it to him who was his murderer. And that is why I have come to-night. Judge, 0 ye Northmen, and look among yourselves. To whom shall I give my gift? As he spoke Ulf, the king, cowered yet deeper in his huge chair and watched the axe with a fascination born of terror and guilt. Great beads of sweat dropped from his brow and all the blood left his face till it was whiter than chalk. His fingers opened and shut spasmodically and the muscles on his neck began to twitch. His breath came and went in great gasps till his whole frame shook as with ague. His features showed nothing but despair. The people looked at one another and then at the king with wonderment. Slowly they began to understand. The king had killed a man. His terror showed his guilt. What would the Dane do? Their northern sense of justice would not let them interfere. It was the king's own quarrel. Let him work out his own salvation. At last the Viking turned and looked the king full in the eye. You lie, you lie! screamed Ulf. I did not kill Harold Wulfricsonf' For answer the Dane slowly raised his axe and struck him once, twice across the face with the broad edge. The king screamed horribly and then rolled slowly from his chair and lay dead upon the Hoor, a heap of costly rags. The Viking stooped and laid the axe on the breast of the dead man. In the silence that fol- lowed his words rang softly over the room, Thy gift, O King! Herbert A. Kellar, 1907 QS ' .When I Go to a Dance Bai? H E N EVE R I am going to a dance it seems as if Father Time EL .0-EQ, . . A C were trying to postpone the affair. The weeks are longer, the N, days drag and the hours are more than sixty minutes. By the ,W gd evening of the party I am so worn out from expectation that I l i X hardly care whether I go or not. However, I commence to dress an hour or so too early, almost always. This necessitates my starting ahead of time or waiting at home until the proper hour. But I finally persuade myself' that I had better start. Just as I get in sight of the car I see the one I want going around the corner. I wait a long whileg every car goes past but the one I want, at last it comes and while going up the hill the power goes off, holding me there for about fifteen minutes. I get my transfer, but when I step off the car, the other one I am to board leaves ahead of me. Pretty soon another one comes. I call for my young lady friend and hurry back to the car. As soon as I arrive at the dance I feel sure I am late, but looking at my watch find out I am on time. J. C. H.

S. J. G. Two Ways of Life i Q ONG AGO when I was a very small child, I had a little friend gfjqgh HS: and playmate whom I loved very dearly. We started on a long V journey together and though we knew that we might meet many difli- C5' 3 X5 culies and must depend only on ourselves to overcome them, still - P ' f we were very happy and light-hearted, for we were only 'K Q children and very fond of each other. di' One day as we walked along hand in hand, my com- q:4 K47 panion said to me: Come over this way a little, you are walking among thistles. But the thistles have such beautiful blossoms, I answered, I like to be among them. I think the meadow daisies are prettier, he said. So he walked among the grass and daisies, I among the thistles. Soon we noticed that between us was a little line of stones. As we went on, this very gradually increased in breadth and grew a little higher. Come and walk on this side of those stones, said my comrade, See how soft this green grass is: --the way is much smoother over here. Yes, I answered, the way is smoother over there, but these rocks are so beautiful l We walked on again and all the way the line of stones grew until it was as high as our knees. On his side of the little wall the meadow of flowers bloomed and the soft grass formed a thick carpet, on my side were sharp rocks, slippery with moss, and thorny briers grew all about. But the briers too, had their flowers and the moss was exquisitely beautiful. As the wall grew higher we began to feel separated from each other. Come and walk with me again, pleaded my comrade. Yes, I said, I will walk with you for a while, then you must come over and walk on my side a little way. Very well, he replied. I laid my hand on the wall to leap over but as I did so the barrier seemed to grow lower. I stepped across into the meadow and we went on together. For a time we were very happy in being together once more without the restraint of the wall, but presentlyl began to long for the wild, chaotic beauty of the other side again. Come now, and walk wnth me, I sand to my compannon and drew hnm over to the stone wall, whnch nn the meanwhnle had become breast hngh Howeven when I put my hand on nt, nt became lower so that I stepped over easnly But my comrade hesntated and looked at the wnld, rough place and then back at the smooth green meadow Why wnll you not stay here, he asked I do not want to come over there he brners are so thorny But see how many beautnful flowers there are here' In the meadows there are only dansnes and buttercups Yes but all the flowers are nn the brners, he exclanmed No I do not lnke that place, I do not want to walk among those thorns We walked on then and the stone barrner grew, untnl I could no longer see over nnto the meadow and we were hndden from each other We stnll talked together now and then and told each other of the thnngs we saw He stnll walked nn the green meadow and the grass and dansnes were the same as ever he sand Above hnm the sky was blue and lnttle whnte clouds floated nn nt Now and then he passed a tree and sometnmes a pretty farm or vnllage All was pleasant peace nn hns pathway As for me, I was nn the mndst of a lonely regnon and sometnmes I wandered far away from the wall Now I crossed a desolate moorland covered wnth heather now I passed through great solemn forests dark and snlent Some tnmes the way led over deep gullnes or up rocky clnffs But among the rocks were many rare flowers and nn the trees a thousand song bnrds The swnft streams made musnc, too, and nn the waterfalls spray the rannbows shnmmered Now and then awful storms came and the wnnd shouted of nts power and the clouds swept across the sky, dark and majestnc Then the sun flashed forth agann, maknng every ranndrop gleam and turnnng the clouds to gold and crnmson Such a charm was nn thns lonely land for me that I grew to thnnk less and less of my frnend beyond the wall He called to me very often, however, and at first l went over nnto the meadow now and then to walk wnth hnm for when I wnshed to cross the wall I found nt very easy to do so, but I never stayed long nn the meadow, for I could not be satnsfned wnth nts qunet, sunny monotony I always brought my frnend rare flowers from my land and he marveled over thenr beauty and prnzed them very hnghly, as dnd the people of the vnllages to whom he showed them I told them of the mnllnons more nn the country 1ust over the wall but they ponnted to my torn dress, scratched face and bleednng hands and sand N they are not worth such a prnce ' Then my former comrade mended my dress and bathed my hands and we walked on together for a whnle, tnll I could bear to be away from the rocks and hllls no longer I trned always to brnng hnm back to my own country wnth me, but although I could easnly pass the wall he never as ' 11 ' - ' 1 . . . . . - 1 . . . 1 . as - 11 . as 1 1 ' 97 I . as - .

The stones might as well have been piled to the stars, so impossible was it for him to get over. As the years passed I came less and less often to the wall to talk with my friend, for I was never lonely. I roamed over mountains and plains, crossed rivers and chasms, always gathering flowers, only to discard them for others that seemed yet more beautiful, always following some bird's song, till the splash of a mountain torrent lured me in a new direction. So it came about that years slipped by without my thinking once of my friend in the meadow. Then one day, upon a high cliff, I saw a new flower of the most perfect beauty. I clambered up the steep face of the rock and seized itg but just as I did so, I lost my balance and fell-down, down into the stream at the cliff's foot. Bruised and half drowned, I drew myself up on the bank, but when I tried to stand, I found that I had hurt my foot very badly. Wet and cold, in great pain and scarcely able to walk, I could find no more joy in the beauty of my wild coun- try. Then it was that I remembered my old comrade in the meadow. Slowly and painfully, I made my way across the rugged hills and valleys, back to the wall again. There I called his name-timidly, for I thought he might have forgotten me in my long absence, but his voice answered strong and clear in joyful welcome. I got up on the wall and he helped me carefully down on the other side. He made me sit on the grass and rest in the warm sunshine so that my garments were soon dry. He bound up my wounded foot and when it was necessary to go on again, I walked leaning on his arm. The warmth and peace of the sunny meadow seemed good to me now, and more than all, I loved the companionship of my old comrade. Surely I had had enough of lonely valleys and wind-swept heights. For the rest of the journey,I resolved to remain with my friend in the meadows, contenting myself with meadow flowers and the music of the buzzing insects. A year or more passed thus in drowsy happiness. Then the old spirit of unrest awoke in me again. The meadow was bright and pretty, but I longed for the deeper, somber beauty of the forests. The sunshine was bright and clear- but, oh for a storm with a tumult of winds and clouds! How could daisies take the place of brilliant passion flowers and columbine, or crickets make up for the loss of nightingales? And my friend, so kind and thoughtful, loving me so much -oh, to be alone once more !. At last I could bear it no longer, so I bade my friend farewell and crossed the wall, to forget his sad face in the boundless joy of living and being free once more. Since that time I have never gone back into the meadow, have never seen him againg yet I know that he is there, walking close beside the wall. Sometimes I too come close to the stone barrier and listen to his footsteps in the swishing grass. Then I drop my loveliest mountain flowers over at his feet and his footsteps cease, so that I know that he has paused to gather up the blossoms. Thus we go on and some day we shall come to the end of our journey. We began it together long agog it may be that some day we shall reach the end of the wall and finish together also - who knows P Perhaps there is somewhere a country peaceful as his meadows and varied as my wildernessg and perhaps we shall find a way to be comrades without tiring. Meanwhile each will go his own way alone: - who shall say which way is best? S. J. Grant. .. li ll . n . ' ' l'- Wil ly E uf t 1 - - xx i il H, ' lil X i kim 1 Iv It ' I ,',.

' As Editor and Business Manager of the Polyscope, we wish to express our thanks to those persons not on the staff who have helped us so generously. We feel ourselves especially indebted to Mr. Packard for the fine picture of Mrs. Bradley which appears opposite our title page. Mr. Packard took this pic- ture last fall. It is a fine, clear photograph and shows Mrs. Bradley in a character- istic pose, standing in the midst of her beloved garden. We feel sure that all the students will prize the '07 Polyscope much more highly on account of this picture. Among the other members of the faculty who have lent a helping hand are Mr. Bennett and Miss McLaughlin. They have given us all manner of helpful suggestions and criticisms and answered numberless questions. We also have to thank Dr. Burgess and Miss Bartlett for their help in proof-reading. Among the students, besides the staff members, those who have boosted us the most are Heath Webster, who has helped the Business Manager in getting the ads., Edna Feltges, George C. Mahle, Ethel Summers and Edward Cushing who have helped the Editor in all sorts of ways. Besides these we wish to thank all the students who have contributed either articles or drawings. Their names will be found below their contribution, except in the case of the drawing entitled Fra- ternities. For this we are indebted to Benjamin Pfeiffer. The omission of his name was a mistake on the part of the Editor, for which we wish to apologize. Some favorable wind blew Lawrence Van Deventer, one of last year's students, in from Chicago and he also generously made several drawings for us. For any mistakes we have made we humbly beg to be pardoned. Remember, this is the first book we ever edited fmay it also be the lastl, and therefore it can not be expected to be perfect. If you find any unpardonable errors, lay the blame on the Editor. She's a Senior and won't be back next year. Moreover she has had English 8 and so is used to severe criticismg she won't mind anything you can say. Janet Grant and Clifford Ottenheimer. .W ll l H Leaves from the Pair Trees. Three little boys and three little girls Played together all day long. They certainly had some good old times. No, nothing could go wrong. The first pair that we 'll talk about ls D--'- s-n B-n d- and Nattyg The only time they have a scrap ls when he calls her fatty. Then there 's Muddy and her Waxy, A well-mated pair they say, And whenever you see Muddy Waxy is not far away. lThe Polyscope manager used his pull to keep the third verse out.1 A Simple Little Song, Sent Us by a Senior Cram, cram, cram, Till the hours of two and three! And I would that my tongue dared utter The thoughts that arise in me ! O, well for the Freshman boy That he shouts through the halls in play! O, well for the Junior lad That he lolls by the pair-trees all day. And the stately deans march on And add to our work with a will, But O for the day when it all will end And the throb in my head be still! Cram, cram, cram,- And no end of cramming I see 'Till June the twentieth gets around,- Then no more cramming for me! Ye Worthy Cause-Science. A poor, lean dog stood on a corner there, An evil man came up and stroked its hair, A wicked man whose name is Jack L. Fry. He coaxed that skinny brute to come to die In Bradley's Den of Death, where men do lurk With hearts like that of the atrocious Turk, The animal on chloroform was fed. False wards enticed it to a gory bed. To bits the pup is mercilessly carved. What matters it-the dog was nearly starved, 'T was best that we its worn-out life should take, To science we -its bones do dedicate. For knowledge, bloody knowledge we do thirst, So spake Jack Fry and jabbed his knife in first. F. F. Miner, Bad Breaks of Our Profs. Was the conductor a scamp Or Miss Blossom a tramp That on seeing a hand out she took it ? Or did n't she care When he asked for her fare, And taking his hand simply shook it? Said Miss McLaughlin, They 're high. I don't think I'll buy, And looked the clerk full in the face. The whole stock from the shelf He 'd pulled down himself When she said, That 's enough, please erase. 'Tis an algebraic feature, Says our mathematic teacher, When a guide-post problem fails to come out right Just think of all the joy To the foot-hill traveling boy When of the snow-capped peak he gets a sight. ia.

Which was against the rule, And every lesson Clifford got It makes the teachers mad they say, That pony had it too. To find a horse at school. To Dr. B. the fool thing strayed, And sat upon his table! We could n't coax the old mule out, Try hard as we were able. And then to Judy Clifford hied, She stole into that fearsome den, And told her of his pickle, And there the pony found, And Judy swore she 'd help him out, And then she backed right out again.

Q11 Either we sell you any particular weave or quality at a lower price than most slgores find it possib e to oEerg O QZJ We sell you a better weave or quality than the same money would have brought you elsewhere. The money comes back into your purse just as surely as if we had charged you ordinary prices, and then handed back the difference to you on a platter. That difference represents the advantage resulting from long experience in the carpet markets, and from the great extent of ourcpurchases. If we weren't doing the FAIREST carpet an rug business in Peoria,we certainly would not be doing the LARGEST. Advertising may tone up a business, provided that there is an honest framework upon which to build. If the real bone and sinew of this carpet business hadn't been SOUND, we would not be the leaders to-day. That's sound sense. You know it. The fact that we DO the greatest business proves that we deserve it, by largeness of stock, by variety of pattem, by excellence of quality. by newness of design, by lowness of price.
