He was educated at tlie Soutli Chester Grammar School and supplemented this training witli a preparatory course at the Keystone Academy, which fitted him for entering Bucknell University with the Class of 1888. In his prepara- tory and college work, he came into close contact with two figures who stand out very prominently in the history of this University — Dr. John H. Harris and Dr. D. J. Hill. In his post-graduate courses at Harvard and Chicago, he was also thrown under the influence of men of such keen intellect as Presi- dent Elliot and President Harper. Hardly had young Hulley started upon his class work at Bucknell be- fore he gave evidence of those mental characteristics which were to later give him rank in educational circles. He was awarded the prize for the best entrance preparation in Greek, Latin and Mathematics. A prize for an editorial in the college paper, the Sophomore essay and Junior oratory prizes, the Senior Psychology Prize, honorable mention for the Commence- ment Oration prize, and first honors and valedictory of the class, were among the other scholastic honors won by him during his four years at Bucknell. To these may also be added one of the three money prizes open to all college Seniors in the United States for a Tariff Essay, which was awarded to him in 1888 by the American Protective Tariff League of New York. After graduating from Bucknell in 1888, Mr. Hulley spent a year in graduate work at Harvard, returning to the Lewisburg institution in 1889 to serve as an instructor in mathematical sciences. In 1892-93 he was a Fellow in Semitic languages at Chicago. He again returned to Bucknell the following year to take the chair in the Department of History. His rela- tions with this University continued until 1904 when he received and ac- cepted a call to the presidency of Stetson University, DeLand, Florida, where he is at present located. Professor Hulley was ordained as a Baptist clergyman in 1890 and while still pursuing his duties at the L niversity, preached for two years in Phila- delphia to the Temple Baptist Church. A few years later he performed similar ser ice for the Emanuel Baptist Church at Baltimore. He devoted the summer vacations of 1897 and 1899 to historical study in Europe, and since 1892 he has spent much time in tra eHno; and delivering lectures before summer assemblies and chautauquas in the United States. The places of these addresses include Silver Bay, Chautauqua, and Findlay Lake, New York; Hiawatha Park, Mt. Vernon, and Lakeside, Ohio; Cliffside, Kentucky; Mt. Eagle, Tennessee; Susquehanna Assembly, and Mt. Gretna. Pennsylvania. As a special lecturer he has spoken before the Teachers ' Associations of Rhode Island, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and of several other States of the Union. In 1908 and 1909 he was preacher respectively, to the University of Cornell and the University of Princeton. Literary work done by Professor Hulley includes a volume of Child Verse (four editions), a volume of love songs, and Studies in the Book of Psalms . He was in 1907-08 editor of the Gospel Herald. While at Bucknell, Professor Hulley was married in 1890 to Miss Har- riet E. Spratt, daughter of Dr. and Mrs. George R. Spratt, of Coatesville, Pa. The wife died two years later, leaving one child by the union. Miss Harriet Spratt Hulley. He married again, September 18, 1903, this time to Miss Eloise Mayham, A.B., (Michigan) A.M.. (Chicago), of Stamford, N, Y. There ha e been three children by this union, Louise Crisfield. Ben- jamin Mayham, and Mary Crozer Hulley. Many honors and positions of trust have been conferred upon the subject of this article since he bade his farewell as a student to Bucknell. In 1890 he was elected president for one year of the National Convention of the Phi Gamma Delta Fraternity. He was lecturer for the American Institute of Sacred Literature in 1S92. and two years later a member of the Old Testa- ment Division of the Council of Seventy. In 1904, he was made a life trustee of Stetson L ' niversity and trustee and president of the Board of Trus- tees of the DeLand Baptist Church. Election as treasurer of the John B. Stetson University Corporation and as president of the Volusia County Florida Historical Association followed in 1905. The Florida Baptist Edu- cational Society named him as executive secretary in 1906. He was elected in 1908 president of the Florida Inter-Collegiate Association for the Regu- lation of Athletics and made life trustee of the Special Carnegie Library Endowment. In 1909 he was chosen vice president, respectively, of the Florida Audubon Society and the Harvard Club of Florida, and was made Councillor of the American School Peace League. During the present vear he has been elected to head the Florida State Teachers Association. Degrees awarded to Dr. Hulley include an A.B. and an A.M. from Buck- nell University in 1888 and 1891, respectively; an A.B. from Harvard in 1889; a Ph.D. from the University of Chicago in 1895; a Litt.D. from Stet- son University in 1906, and a LL.D. from Denison L ' ni ersity in 1907. 9  ' The Board of Trustees HARRY S.

Huyette 1909 CLASS MEMORIAL H - 17 o O m u 18 1910 Class History BOR the last time the Class of 1910 wrtes its history for the L ' Agenda. Four short years we have worked and played at Bucknell as stu- dents and good comrades. Four short years? you ask. Yes, all too short now that the time is drawing so near when we must separate and each follow his own path and climb to his own goal. How far ofif 1910 seemed when we entered as Freshmen to begin our search for knowledge and how we longed for our Sophomore year to come when we should be masters of affairs and another class should regard our slightest wish. Not that we might take undue delight in the slaughter of the innocents, but that we might be the means of guiding the Freshmen ' s tender minds aright, and, by giving them some amusement and relaxation from their studies, prevent their becoming grinds and acquiring exaggerated opinions of themselves. Then in our Junior year how we delighted Prexy with our intelligence and learning everv morning at eight-fifteen. Surely we were a class well fitted to be the model for all other classes during our stay here, and even long after our departure to be held up as an ideal to be striven for by our suc- cessors. And now we are Seniors with all the dignity and learning belonging to that honored class. However, our dignity is not so overpowering as to pre- vent our having a jolly good time on all suitable occasions, nor is our thirst for learning so insatiable but that we can provide plenty of occasions. Any- one who was among those present at the Senior party or the Senior sleigh- ride will gladly bear witness to the truth of the last two statements. Yet, along with the honor of being Seniors there always comes the feel- ing of sadness that we must soon leave our Alma Mater and separate from the classmates who have been our friends for four years. Most of us are wondering what the next year will bring to us as we go out into the world to be teachers, preachers, doctors, lawyers, or whatever Fate may make of us ; but if we always keep before us the high standards, the lofty ideals that have been presented to us at Bucknell, which we as a class have tried to follow, we cannot help succeeding and making a name for ourselves. Then will the world hear of us and will be as proud of the individuals of our class as we ourselves now are of the class as a whole. So, with a feeling of regret and sorrow at parting, yet with bright hopes for the future, the Class of 19 10 closes this chapter of its history and says farewell to Bucknell. 19 1910 Class Poem ::; HE quick, clear call of the Future S J s, borne on the college air, And the waiting Senior listens For the message it may bear. His hope grows more strong and buoyant With the luring of the voice, And the joy of the new beginning Bids him make a worthy choice But there comes a gentle murmur From the voices of the Past, Of tender, happy memories, That with him shall ever last; And the Future ' s voice is fainter. As it echoes in his ear. For the joy of the new beginning Leads away from old joys here. Then the calmness of the Present Soothes him with its glad content, And he tarries in the sunshine Of the day so nearly spent. But the Future ' s voice comes nearer; It blends with his musing bright; And the joy of the new beginning Spreads round him a clearer light. Now the Future ' s call is stirring And can be no more denied. And the eager, hopeful Senior Turns towards the ways untried. His spirit responds and rises To the challenge of the call ; With the joy of the new beginning His courage can conquer all. 20 K l Senior Class, 1910 THE PRESIDENT OFFICERS President ----- Paul James Abraham Vice President - - - Raymond Fisher Hain Secretary ------- Emily Lane Treasurer ----- Hugh Ellis Roser Poetess ----- Mabel Cornelia Gibson Historian ------ Jane Chapman 21 The Senior Class, 1910 Paul James Abraham Katharine Ethel Bailey John Charles Bank Conrad Leslie Baskins Floyd Bay ' ton Beemer John Ranck Bell Porter Lloyd Benson Frederic William Breimeier Josephine Brown Cameron Avoy Butt George Frank Case Mildred Blackwell Cathers - Jane Chapman Samuel Greer Cochran, (Pli.B., Grove Joseph Leslie Conover Clyde William Cranmer Winnie Viola Dickson George Parson Druckemiller Frank Saunders Eakeley Isaac Newton Earle, Jr. C.

And since Fame hath al- ready carried our history afar — even, as an Ethiopian gentleman saith, Unto de people who lib in de uninhabited parts of de wurld - — we need not recount the past victories of our Nation. Indeed, it hath already become a custom for people to say concerning great deeds in general, Even so do the Nation of Eleven, and more. ' Now, it comes to pass that when at the new moon a peaceful people came among us to make their home here, we welcomed them, saying, Blessed be ye strangers, and made them our protege. But alas ; a certain barbarous tribe, who, having eaten of the fat of the land for nigh unto a year, showed themselves exceeding haughty and tried to usurp the throne of King John himself. Assuming great authority they bellowed aloud Be it known unto all men that we, the Dozeners, do lord it over this land . And armed with staves they fell upon the peaceful strangers unawares, attacking them hip and thigh. Then did all the country round about cry out, Shame! Shame! while many a stranger sighed dolefully, Woe is me ! This outrage naturally caused us to hold a conference where, after a deliberation of wise men, we decided to have the two tribes engage in a fair contest, free from strategy — the contest to be waged over a huge flagon of apple wine. But vipon hearing this decision, the barbarous assailants fell on their knees with fear and trembling, and neither the angelic band in the heavens nor the gregarious diabolic assembly under the sea could sever them from their fears. Thus did we restore peace, just as the black storm clouds of savage warfare were beginning to scowl above our fair horizon. As to the mutual relationship among ourselves, we have made no out- ward show, beheving that all living forces, like the still small voice, ever operate through eloquent silence. Still we lay claim to visible attainments whose reality and stability we call upon our friends to attest. Truly has the cornucopia poured choice treasures upon us, and Dame For- tune, too, hath shown herself kind. Hence we have won a name. But all 27 the renown that wealth, social standing, and pedigree can boast of, all the fame that money — in marble and granite — can perpetuate, is a mere mare ' s nest compared with that bond of friendship which has drawn us together and w iich neither old age nor distance can sever. United we have stood and united in spirit we shall ever stand. Our work here to-day is but an impetus for the great responsibilities that shall meet us somewhere to-morrow. By the expenditure of physical strength on the athletic field, intellectuality in the class room, and affability in social circles, we have endeavored to develop those faculties which best will enable us to attain unto the realizat ion of our ideal which crystalized into words may thus be expressed as OUR CREED We believe that with more unfeigned altruism, more faith in the triumph of virtue, more bright optimistic minds to soar above the level of common custom, more harmony, more co-operation, this world will launch into a Utopia brighter than poet or artist ever pictured. 28 WP ptW ' ■Z i v ' --A ' f .jl .Ji • -. -t. . v ' ' .  Jh« . i CLASS SCRAPS IN 1907 AND ]908 1911 Class Poem CHALLENGE to our loyal hearts is made When mention of our class or school we hear; May thoughts of service, loving, not delayed, Through deeds of service fittingly appear. The colors of our class are white and blue Which thrill us with the message they contain — A bidding to be pure, and to be true, A worthy goal to strive for and to gain. The dainty violet as our flower we own, Its tenderness throughout our life suffused; Its mildness lends our strength a gentler tone, And renders arbitrary power confused. With symbols, which to us such thoughts convey, Our class will see both might and beauty meet ; And Nineteen ' leven to itself will say : Be brave, but like our modest flower, be sweet.

Kates LeRoy MacFarland 31 Elmer Matlock App, Haddonfield, N. J. Prepared at South Jersey Institute; Engineering Club; Junior Smoker Committee; Civil Engineei ' ing Course. App heads the class both alphabetically and in originality. He is a student. From morning till eve he digests the knowledge set forth in brightly bound books and pamphlets. He is accredited with great nerve, and climbed that tall standpipe at the foot of Market Street to assist in the operation of erasing a former mistake, and of remodeling it with a 1911 blue-print . John Herbert Arnold, Houtzdale. Houtzdale H. S.; ' Varsity Football, 3; Sigma Alpha Epsilon; Class Football, 1, 2; Class Baseball, 1, 2; Civil Engineering Course. From away back in the wild and woolly central part of the state, in the small hamlet of Houtzdale, there has come to us this prodigy. Herb , as we all know him, is a man with an unusually intelligent expression — when trying to tell the Prof something he himself does not know. More than once has he issued from class scraps and scrimmages unscathed and still eager for .the fray. He has the beef and has always used it for his class when called upon. William Neil Baker, Lewisburg. Piucknell Academy; Kappa Sigma; Theta Delta Tau; Phi Delta Sigma; Treasurer of Class, 2; Chemis- try Course: Chemist. As an exponent of Lewisburg society life, Neil may some day spring a grand surprise on some of his brethren who boast of being more studious. Even now his affable bearing is proverbial, and what maiden can withstand the congenial beams t hat suf- fuse his countenance when he stands at the soda fountain and plays the gallant? 32 Harry Stevens Bastian, Montgomery. Lycoming County Normal; Kappa Delta Phi; President of Class, 2; Class Football, 2; Junior Prom. Com.; Electrical Engineering Course. On account of his ability as a leader, Bastian has been surnamed Prexy . In his Sophomore year he spent many sleepless nights, not on account of his studies but on account of the tonsorial duties which his position as class president called for. As an elec- trical engineer ' Pre.x ' ' will be second to none, that is, if application and work have anything to do witli the making of one. Arthur Thomas Baujier New Columbia. Milton H. S.; Chemical Course; Chemistry. Brickie is the shining light of our class. He comes to us every day from his busy up-river village in his modest way and returns to it regularly every night with contentment written on his brow. His specialty is chemistrj ' and he believes that he will some day discover some new. precipitates that will open the eyes of the world and incidentally leave him a residue of (. ' u, Ag) Te2. Jacob Kreider Bo vm. n, Campbelltown Millersville Normal; Delta Theta Upsilon; Mem- ber of L ' . ' Kgenda Board; Toast Class Banquet, 2; Latin Philosophical Course; Teacliing. According to statistics, Jake hails from Campbell- town, but he sa3 ' S I come from Lebanon up . He joined us as a Sophomore and was once modest, but time and the Sem are rapidly mellowing this unripe- ness. Jake combines the unusual characteristics of a good fellow and a good student. His specialty is German and Verein Meetings. Altho he has the qual- ities of a preacher and is possessed of excellent ora- torical abilities, he declares that he will be a teacher lest his affections drown his voce. 33 Katharine Virginia Bronson Salem, N. J. Assistant Editor of the L ' Agenda; Peddie Insti- tute; Delta Delta Delta; Orange and Blue Board; Latin Philosophical Course. Curly hair, brown eyes and a soft decisive voice — - Why, that ' s the lady ! as Shakespeare says. Kath- crine is one of the busiest, most energetic, and ver- satile girls we have. We think she ought to become a business woman but she doesn ' t seem to fancy the liusiness world. In fact she has a fine disregard for her future welfare that inakes us marvel and doubt if she is long for this life. Sometimes she gazes so far away it seems as if she must already be reading her title clear either to mansions in the sky or, perhaps, to a manse on earth. Grover Nevin Brown, Friedensburg. Keystone Normal; Class Football, 2; Civil Engi- neering Course. Dutch came to Bucknell via Kutztown and brought with him a crop of hair that was the marvel of the college. Sophomore shears early reduced its size and spoiled its beauty. It was upon that occa- sion that Dutch got his experience for hazing stunts last year when he always inissed his breakfast on the morning following a hair-cutting expedition. Xo one knows what he will follow after graduation, but it is generally believed that he will be a successful sur- veyor and will spend his spare time translating Lindy ' s German into Dutch. Charles Norman Brubaker, Liverpool. Bucknell Academy; Assistant Manager ' Varsity Baseball, 3: Manager Class Football, 2; Electrical Engineering Course. Bru admits that he is Dutch but he declares that he is not as Dutch as Brownie. He is going to be an electrical engineer and in this line he has acquired a marked ability in deriving formulas. As a result he has numerous visitors around examination time who cinch an Ex. on the fruits of liis industry. Bru is quite an unassuming fellow and the only thing he puts forward is his pipe. The pipe, how- ever, serves to emphasize his presence .nnd makes U]i for his lack of forwardness. 34 Katherine Gray Carpenter, Woodbury, N. J. Woodbury H. S.; Delta Delta Delta; Vice Presi- dent Y. W. C. A.; Latin Philosophical Course. Divinely tall and most divinely fair , is the quo- tation that suits her best but rouses most her ire. Under an irreproachable exterior, this young woman maintains more Topsy-like proclivities than a casual observer would imagine. Her chief delight is get- ting in and miraculously out of mischief. Katherine ' s father runs a newspaper over in Jersey which may explain, in part, her unusual interest in college jour- nalism. James Francis Clark, Kane. Kane H. S.; Delta Theta Upsilon; ' Varsitv Foot- ball, 1, 2, Captain-elect, 3; ' Varsity Baseball, 1, 2; Class Baseball, Basketball, and Track Teams, 1, 2; Toast Class Banquet, 2; Civil Engineering Course. The ' varsity football line-up would be about a- much out of harmony without Jimmy Clarke a-, would a city baseball diamond without a beer sign in the outfield — pardon the simile. Jimmy is in- dispensable. He thought he wasn ' t last year so he dropped out and only came back this year after friends had persuaded him that we couldn ' t do witli- out him. Equally clever at punting the pigskin on the gridiron or handling the willow stick on thu diamond, Jimmy has proved such a valuable asset tc college sports that we have been glad to adopt him into our class. Grace Buchanan Cobb, Coiidersport. Coudersport H. S.; Pi Beta Phi; Frill and Frown: Latin Philosoohical Course. Cobby, the second at the Sem. Her musical ability, entirely natural, is extraordinary and in the dance hall the li -cly strains of one of her catchy melodies simply won ' t let one ' s feet behave. She might be called the maid with the ragtime air were it not that more serious thoughts occupy her mind at times. Just at present she is deeply engrossed in the Darwinian theory of the evolution of (a) man from a Monk . Somehow Cobby always sees tlic funny side of everything and has to be muffled at the midnight parties to suppress her giggle. 35 Harry Raxkin Coulson, Donora. Indiana Normal; Varsity Football, 1, 2, 3, Captain. 3; Sigma Chi; Phi Delta Sigma; Theta Delta Tau; Class Baseball and Track Teams, 1, 2; General Science Course. Imagine a gridiron gladiator snatching the pig- skin from the air and annihilating whitewash lines in a spectacular dash for the goal posts while 500 crazy students tie themselves into rapturous knots on the side lines — imagine this and you have a moving pic- ture lilm of Bull ' making his famous touchdown that tied the score against Dickinson last Fall. Bull ' ' was adopted by Doc. Hoskins in his Freshman year. He worked out all right on the gridiron but nearly wrecked the Gym when he got into his first basket- ball scrimmage. Joy over victories is exhibited in his passion for private Ijonfires. t Morris Ir.-v Craig Indiana. Bucknell Academy; ' Varsity Basketball, 2, 3, Cap- tain, 3; Class Basketball and Baseball Teams, 1, 2, 3; Sigma Chi; Banquet Committees; General Science Course; Forestrj ' . It is with much apprehension that we correct a catalogue mistake which put the names of Craig ' and Cobb side by side last year. Perhaps it is that same affinity that brings these two into adjoining seats at the basketball games and chapel entertain- ments and which is altogether immune from alpha- betical exactness. Monk can scarcely be said to possess any clerical ambitions. That keen, alert look and stoop of the shoulders are the result of years spent on a basketball floor — not in a theological seminarj ' . Nelson Kennedy Grossman, Whites Valley. Keystone .Academy: .Mpha Sigma; Manager Class Basketball, 2; Banquet Committee, 1; Member of . ' thletic .Association Advisory Board; Greek Philo- sophical Course; Ministry. Gentle mien backed by strong physical reserve makes Grossman a good lit for the clerical garb. Full f)f grit and earnestness, his activity will surely win for him a place if he perseveres. In his verdant Freshman days it is told that Grossman inflicted him- self upon the gentle folk of Chillesquaque. Unlike the proverbial Kentucky divine who kept a jug handy during service time. Nelson is said to have usually liad a pair of juicy melons reposing beneath the ])ulpit while he preached. A favorite text of his is taken from Numbers 11: 5. We remember the fish which we did eat in Egypt for nought, the cucumbers and the melons. 36 ft . Joseph Leslie Crowell, Perth Amboy, N. J. Perth Amboy H. S. ; Delta Theta Upsilon; Junior Prom. Committee; Latin Philosophical Course; Teaching. A staunch Methodist, Crowell came to a Baptist institution because of the glowing accounts of Buck- nell his fellow-townsman, Hartshorn, brought back home with him. He is flourishing well in the new denominational soil and the transplanting has had no worse effect than to lead him to the dance hall and moving picture shows occasionall} ' . After such di- versions from the narrow way. he usually takes a shower balh to revive his Wesleyianism. About the most exciting thing Leslie ever did was to go to the Senior Sem Reception in his Freshman year with a deck of cards in the coat tail pocket of his dress suit. Helen Winifred Cure, Jerniyii. Keystone Academy; Philosoi)hical Course. L ' Agenda Board; Latin Last Fall term ' inifred let us see how forlornly empty her small corner would seem without her. But she ' s back now with her old-time originality and her devotion for the strenuous courses under Pro- fessor Reimer. Winifred divides her time between text books and out-of-door life. Her special delights are skating, tennis, and long country tramps and to this energetic young lady a trip over Montour is onlv a mild constitutional. Margaret Curtis, Montrose. Montrose H. S.; Delta Delta Delta; Secretary Y. W. C. A.; Latin Philosophical Course. Not overly enthusiastic nor at all liable to the charge of being sentimental, never crazy, non-fussible, able to play tennis all day without getting a red face — this is Margaret. One never feels quite assured of a secure place in her afl ections yet such is the air of good fellowship and sweet sanity about her that one can usually find in her room the girl one is look- ing for. Margaret is the patroness of ideas. They all go to her, the idea hatchers, sure that in the atmos- phere of her room the idea will appear in its proper light. 37 Raymond Caleb Decker, Kimbles. Hawlcy H. S.; Engineers ' Society; Electrical En- gineering Course. Raymond is a prolific example of studiousncss em- bodied with a temperament for those things to be en- joyed most in his college days. He is a member of the Satanic Missionary movement which has pros- pered much since its inception in West Wing. When not wrestling with chcmi ' =try formulas or Lindy ' s Dutch, Decker . pends his time writing letters to his sister ' . Woods Frederick Derr, ' atsoiito vn. Watsontown H. S.; Sigma Chi; Biology Course; Medicine. , Butch is not what his name implies but a gentle rosy-cheeked youth of no mean appearance. Coming to us from the peaceful environs of Watsontown, he shovi ed unusual signs of intuition and from the be- ginning drank deep at the fount of knowledge. His development is so promising that we hope to send him back to his native village as an example of what good training and good associations can do for a man. Walter William Duff, Edenlmrg. New Castle H. S.; Delta Theta Upsilon; ' Varsity Football, 3; Class Football and Baseball Teams, 1, 2; Toast Class Banquet, 1; Banquet Committee, 2; Civil Engineering Course. After two years of hill life Ikey decided that he was becoming too well known at college so he moved down town. He and Strength of Materials didn ' t hit it more than half right but then being a candidate for ' Varsity honors covers a multitude of sins. Where Ikey shines cliiefly is on sled-rides and otiier sim- ilar affairs coincident with co-ed colleges. 38 Arthur Clay Fairchild, Towanda. Towanda H. S.; Sigma Tau; ' Varsity Track Team; Class Track Team, 1. 2: Electrical Engineering Course. A fleet runner have we among us. His most bril- liant achievement was in the Carlisle meet last year when Si Butt took a nap at tlie finish of the mile run and let Arthur break the tape, and incidentally the local track record. Fairchilds is sympathetic — he rooms with Andy Sable. It ' s a mystery to his friends how he is able to exist with Andy ' s gas continually percolating his system. Allan Manchester Fitch, Factoryville. Keystone Academy; Forum; Class Treasurer, 3: General Science Course; Chemist. Everybody does not know that Fitch was formerly one of the Siamese Twins. If you want to know who the other was you ' ll have to ask him. To those who are curious to know why he goes to Sunday School every Sunday but never puts in any collection, wc might explain that he blowed in all his spare change on watermelons last fall. If you ever hear of a chem- ist of national importance by the name of Fitch a few years hence just put him down as a member of the Class of 1911. Merna JrLL GiFFtN, Port Richmond, N. Y. Port Richmond H. S.; Classical Course. She was floating down the river, Where the shadows dip and quiver. Was it little Pocahontas? Not at all. It was just a parson ' s daughter On the day when Tommy caught her Skipping when she hadn ' t oughter. That was all. 39 Matilda YorNG Goldixg, Lawrenceville, X. J. Trenton H. S.; L ' Agenda Board; Treasurer Wom- en ' s League; Latin Philosophical Course. Matilda comes to us from a little town over in Jersey which plays the side-show part to Princeton ' s big three ring circus. She is quite familiar with the Tiger ' s roar and consequentlj- has felt at home since trailing a beast of that species to Lewisburg. Her deep intellectuality may be attributed to the atmos- phere she his breathed from ofif Nassau ' s classic halls. A reader of physiognomies, Matilda can tell by the curve of your nose o r the twitch of your eyelid wliat manner of a man or woman you are, with em- bellishments vvorlliy of the cleverest clairvoyant. Franklin Oscar Gorsuch, Finksburg, Md. Franklin H. S.; Class Track Team, 2; General Science Course; Teaching. Nonesuch has immense capabilities but he seems determined to direct them into the wrong channels in spite of all the good advice he gets. When he first arrived at college he thought he would show the authorities how to run things but fortunately for him his plans were liroken off rather abruptly. We have ' hopes that when he once settles down he will develop into a pedagogue of the good old Ichabod Crane type. foiiN ' iLLiAM Green, Saltsburg. Saltsburg H. S.; Phi Gamma Delta; ' Varsity Track Team, 2; Class Football Team, 1; Class Track Team, 1, 2; Gymnasium Team; Civil Engineering Course. Billy was a bold, l)ad Soph, but as an upper- classman his dignity is irreproachable. He got his first experience in engineering while painting the class numerals on the brid,ge in his Freshman year and as a Soph he is said to have insisted on symetrical hair-cuts. After such exciting times things were too slow for him last winter and he dropped out of col- lege to make ice while the water froze . He prom- ises to be back with us soon and then the University will start again. ID Franklin Joseph Gronde, Cogan Valley. William Jewell College: Graduated in Pharmacy at Valparaiso University: Dcmosthenean: Class Track- Team, 2; BucU-nell Glee Club: Biology Course; Medicine. Doc entered our class in the Sophomore year when he congratulated himself upon being permitted to place his name on such an honored roll. We have since congratulated ourselves in getting him. He has gone to school, practiced pharmacy, and traveled in almost every state in the Union. He came to Bucknell to complete his education for he had heard the Tree of Knowledge here produced a luscious variety of fruit called snits . . fter tast- ing, he has partaken sparingly. Fr. nk Thomas Hamile, New Florence. Indiana State Normal: Demosthenean; Winner in Inter-Society Debate, 1; Bucknell Law Club; Cap and Dagger; On Junior Debate; Jurisprudence Course. Altho he has red Iiair, pink cheeks, and freckles, and is brim full of the genial wit and good humor of the Emerald Isle, Hamill declares that Irish i a misnomer. He contides to all who will listen that he is a native of Ligonier Valley — wherever that ma} be — and betrays his real Scotch descent by asking if you ' ve ever bean there . Since entering the book- store Irish has displayed remarkable financial abil- ity which in time bids fair to rank him with his fel- low countryman .Andrew Carnegie. His most suc- cessful coup was the cornering of the Freshman Rules last fall and the disposing of them to the un- sophisticated 3-oungsters at a nickel each. Edith Harpel, Mt. Carmel. Mt. Carmel H. S.; Pi Beta Phi; C. E. A.; Frill and Frown; Class Secretary, 3: Elocution. Ede , the dainty little miss, spends most of her time elocuting ,. Her highest aim seems to be to travel in a concert company, yet what is this which comes as an echo of Freshman days — a whisper of a theme which tells of the friendly tow-path and thrushes singing in May? Not one of us doubts that she would be perfectly willing to exchange the tow- path for a western lodge and the song of the thrush for the more romantic quack of a Duckie . Some- how we like to talk to Edith because of her grace of manner and gentleness of tone. JP J ' ' 1 ■11 Lester Abraham Harris, Lewisburg. Bucknell Academy; Class Baseball, Science Course; Law. 1, 2; General After a stormy Freshman year this individual has been preserved to lis intact. His specialties are play- ing baseball and juggling with Ethics and Psychology. Besides trying to knock Prexy ' s eye out, his ambi- tion is to become a second Hans Wagner. Charles David Hasson, W ' indljer. Windber H. S.; Phi Kappa Psi; Biology Course; Medicine. Hass came to Bucknell from Michigan and it wasn ' t long before he had told us all he knew about medicine, human anatomy, and the like. Since his medical knowledge has been exhausted, he has turned to the millinery trade and now some of the class call him Milly . Arriving too late to participate in all the college activities, this individual has laid aside his toga of upperclass dignity this year to indulge occasionally in midnight hazing orgies. Charles Hunter Heacock, Turljot ille. Bucknell Academy; Alpha Sigma; Asst. Editor of the L ' Agenda; Asst. Treasurer Athletic Association; Banquet Committee, 2; Classical Course; Medicine. Heacock is a native child of the sod, having, like Cincinnaticus of old, abandoned the plow in the fur- rows of Turbotville and taken up the lancet and scalpel that his fellow man might be freed from all fleshly ills. A summer ' s vacation spent with Elbert Hubbard has made him immune to all mundane pleas- ures, altho ' tis true the East Aurora post-office has reported an increase in business since his return to college. Heaky ' ' is sure to be a force in the medical world whether he is called upon to stamp out a plague or alleviate the sufferings of a juvenile jam tliief. '  ■ ' • .}4 A«Ilt! L itvUU ' .J MWMtW0M. ' H.-i John Clarence Hilbish, Northumberland. Northumberland H. S.; .Sigma Tau; Electrical En- gineering Course. The best waj ' to identify Si is by his voice but as wc cannot catalogue vocal membranes in this publication we will just say that he is rated a close second to Noisy Redcay. He is flirting with the engineering course and spends his Saturdays survey- ing his father ' s farm across the river for building lots. By the time he graduates Si expects North- umberland to have grown into a metropolis so that he can sell his lots and buy one of those big red buzz wagons in which he was taking free joy rides as a contemplative purchaser last summer. E. RL Edward Hinman. Monroetowii. Monroetown H. S.; Class Football and Baseball. 2; Biology Course; Medicine. A flash of white hair and a whirl of dust were the first impressions we had of Hinman. He joined Us in the Sophomore year just in time to get into a healthy mix-up in the class scrap and to pluck a few honors for us in the inter-class football game. Two years have sufficed to make him so thoroughly accli- mated with the college and the class that he can now affect the upper-class swagger with the same grace as the rest of us Juniors. Edward Lei.sering Howell, Northumberland. Mercersburg Academy; Phi Gamma Delta; Phi Delta Sigma; Class Baseball and Football Teams. 1; Class Track Team, 1, 2; Banquet Committee, 1; En- gineering Course. Ted is without doubt the busiest man in the class. For two years he stuck to us faithfully, but now he can be found only a few hours a day — some days — and the rest of the time he is in Sunbury on business, etc. , quite a bit of that etc. , to be frank. He is the pool (e) shark of the class and hasn ' t even a near rival. Ted is such an all-round good fellow that we reallj ' wish he could only give us more of his time. 43 Andrew Joiix Htston. Tioga Center, X. Y. Ovve. o Academy; Phi Gamma Delta; Class Foot- ball Team, 1; Engineering Course. Here is one of those quiet, hard working fellows whom you can always lind in his room. Andy can hardly be charged with being a grind, nevertheless he finds a pretty big place for study in his day ' s schedule and only occasionally breaks away from the routine of school work long enough to take in the moving picture shows at Milton. He is one of those few college men who believe that there is something worth aiming for in life. Just at present we find that this aim of his is centered within close range of Nichols, X. . Francis H.xrper Hutchinson, Sunbury. Buckncll -- cademy and Penna. Military College; Sigma Alpha Epsilon; General Science Course; Business. Military life, following the revelries of a course at the Prep, tempered Hutch for the vicissitudes of college life on the hill. He never tires of telling those tales of cadet life when he learned to press the uniforms and black the boots of haughty upper- class oflicers. Some of this discipline he put into good use m drilling the Freshmen rookies here in his Sophomore year. Hutch was late in joining our class and altho he has not yet overcome the handi- cap, we hope to see him in at the finish next year. Morris Victor Huyette, ' ernersville. Keystone Normal; Alpha Sigma; Vice President Junior Class; Latin Philosophical Course; Teaching. Das ist der herr Huyette. Er kommt von der Stadt wo man Bier und Pretzeln macht. Er trinkt aber Wasser — ach! glauben Sie as dochi Als cin guter Student und Kamerad kann man ihn nicht ueberschritten. Aber sagen Sie es neimand — es laesst sich sagen dass das Hcrz eines recht huebschen Maed- chen sehr heftig klopft wenn sie ein Brief von ihni bekommt. 44 Mary Jameson, Danville. Danville H. S.; Pi Beta Phi; Latin Classical Course; Teaching. Unlilve the heroine of the l indergarten tale, lary came to school for social finish. She did not bring her little lamb to Bucknell with her but instead has taken a little Chic under her wing. She is a per- petual giggler and her frequent chuckles always be- tray her presence even if one does not know she is about. Altho she has taught school and is supposed to have acquired some dignity, we wonder whether ] Iary will ever be able to take life seriously. LeRoy Joiiksox, Lewisburg. Lewisbtirg H. S.; Sigma Alpha Epsilon; Thela Delta Tau; Phi Delta Sigma; Civil Engineering Course. Advantages of the town certainly work wonders with these college boys as is demonstrated in Johnny , who migrated to Bucknell from the sub- urbs three years ago. A student in his Freshman days when hazing was rampant on the hill, Johnny has rapidly developed along the line of his profes- sion. jNIost of his surveys just at present are laid along Fifth Street and it doesn ' t take a transit to locate him at the church services and basketbiU games. John Kase, Danville. Danville H. S. ; Delta Theta Upsilon; Class Bas- ketball and Baseball Teams, 1, 2; General Science Course; Teaching. Chubbcr is the hero of Anderson ' s famous fairy tale Hans and Gretchen . Altho he is from D.in- ville friends vouch for his sanity except along cer- tain lines. The best thing Chubber ever did was to cast his lot with the Class of 1911. For doing this we credit him with having abundance of com- mon sense, which, combined with the wisdom of ilie heroine of Anderson ' s beautiful talc, should almost make a man out of him. 45 [ ' Elizabeth S. Kates, Millville, N. J- Millville H. S.: Pi Beta Phi; L ' Agenda Board; Class Poetess; Sophomore Oratorical Contest; Latin Philosophical Course; Teaching. Brighter than a star, swifter than a comet, and a heap surer in her flight, a whiz from a-way back. What she sees once, she knows; what she thinks, she does. If you want to know much of Bessie you had better get acquainted right away before she gets out of sight and beyond you. Wisdom grows in rarest places; Sweetness is a precious gem; Wit we only rind in whizzes; Our Doc possesses all of them. George Oren Keiser, West Milton. l Iilton H. S.; Electrical Engineering Course. Altho George is studying electricity he hasn ' t been completely connected up with the college circuit as j ' et and has been operating under something less than a 10 volt current. Most of this energy is used up in running for the trolley car at Milton in the mornings and he even finds it hard to push a cigar or a pipe up the hill by the time he reaches the college. Perhaps this Miltonian is holding himself in reserve and some day will turn the current on full and give us a thrilling shock. JoHX Ray Keiser, West Milton. Milton H. S.; Chemical Society; Clieniistry Course. Alphabetically, this is the second of the Keiser twins. He delves so deep into the mysteries of chem- ical compounds that only those who dare to brave the fumes of the laboratory ever see verj ' much of him. Once in a while he comes out into the fresh air, ventures occasionally within the vicinity of the class rooms, smokes his pipe and then goes right back again. 46 Raymond Miner Kendall, Waterford. Waterford H. S.; Kappa Delta Phi; Manager ' Varsity Tennis Team, 4; Class Tennis Team, 1; Banquet Committee, 2; Latin Philosophical Course; Medicine. Early experiences in his Freshman days gave Ray- mond a vivid portrayal of the terrors of college life. . roused from bis snug bed in the gloomy hours of the night soon after his arrival, he was smuggled ofT to the country and tied up in a barn by treacherous Sophomores who feared his presence in the class fight on the following day. When he told this story to a Freshman from his native heath whom he had taken under his protectin.g wing last Fall, the frightened youngster ' s delightful dreams of college life faded and he hastened back to Waterford with hair-raising tales of the terrible hazing stunts at Bucknell. Julia Allen Kremer, Watsontown. Watsontown H. S.; General Science Course; Teaching. From Watsontown comes daily our conscientious Julia, Her arms are nearly always full of books with a chemistry invariably perched on top. Her every interest is centered about this science and it is doubt- ful if even Watsontown parties could tempt her from the laboratory, at least not unless the tafify were cooked in crucibles and the punch served in beakers. John Robert Kurtz, ] Iyersto vn, Millersville Normal; ' Varsity Football and Bas- ket-ball Teams, 2, 3; Class Basketball and Baseball Teams, 2, 3; General Science Course; Teaching. He-ah! He-ah! That ' s John. If j ' ou ever hear that cry you may know that the Myerstown blonde is somewhere under the goal on the basketball floor. Altho Johnny was a year late in joining us, he arrived in time to add material strength to the class and college teams. Doc Hoskins spotted him early and has been teaching him how to leave his feet ever since. Johnny is one of the fleetest half-backs on the ' Varsity eleven. He is even faster on the basketball floor and finds no difficulty in throwing goals with half of the opposing team hanging on his back. 47 -.(v.ttvrtM-M« ri( I«tr.r William Anderson Lesher, Benton. Sus(|ttfbannn University; Phi Gamma Delta; Class Track Team, 1. 2; Egineering Course. Ever since Bill deigned to open those dreamy eyes of his on the world of work and fun — principally fun. for Rill — he has taken life as a joke. With such a charming personality, such a winning smile, and so adorable a pomp, Bill has set many .gentle hearts aflutter. Too many, ' tis said, for he has that frailty of scattering his affections promiscuously. He is careful tho to see that they are sprinkled pretty thickly up in the Wilkes-B.irre region. Once in a while he gets serious and tackles mathematical problems with such aviditj ' that his friends call him the human slide rule. Frederick Bryton Little, L ' niontown, Uniontown H. S.; Phi Kappa Psi; Chairman Junior Prom. Committee; Banquet Committee, 2; Cap and Dagger; Biology Course; Medicine. Ha! The Traveling Salesman in The Girl Be- hind the Counter . In this youth there blazes the lire and flame of the drama. The first faint flicker of this talent burst forth when he took the Christopher Columbo role in the Sophomore Stuntfest and his dramatic ability has since developed with remarkable quickness. Ted is generous and has accommodated some of us with the makins so often that we hesi- tate to prophesy whether he will show off best in an apothecary shop or in front of the foot-lights. Herbert Spencer Lloyd, Wilkes-Barre. Wilkes-Barre H. S.; Vice President Athletic As- sociation; Latin Philosophical Course; Teaching. Here is the class warbler. Whenever you hear anyone singing in a deep basso profundo in the halls you may know that it is only Lloyd getting his voice into condition for the chapel choir. He is one of our Psychology sharks and is never more at home than when he is tellin.g of his aspirations to become a Spencer or a Kant. 48 . ft ? ' Roy Allen Long, Nortlnimljeiiand. Nortliumlierland H. S. ; Leader, Rucknell Band; Jurisprudence Course; Law. Seldom do we find two distinct opposites in tlie same individual, yet here we have Shorty Long. Roy is ' most always quiet — when he isn ' t tooting his horn — and thinks, so it seems, several times before he speaks in class room. That horn of his is a storayc battery of college spirit and a few notes of its Ray Bucknell! stirs up more enthusiasm among the fel- lows than a whole broad side of mass meetin.q; speeches. Charles Lose, Jr., ' illiamsport. L ' Agenda Artist; VVilliamsport H. S. ; Phi Kappa Psi; Theta Delta Tau; Banquet Toast, 1; Civil En- gineering Course. Tod is a devil of a .good artist, if his L ' Agenda illustrations arc any criterion. He claims the dis- tinction of having taught several of the members of the Faculty how to fish. Whenever any of them want to be sure of bringing home a likely string of trout or bass they just take Tod along — to carry the fish. Tod called on a girl once at Williamsport but the family set the alarm clock for half past ten and hid it in the parlor so he hasn ' t been back since. Charles Loveland, Jr., HammontDii, N. J.

Com- mittee; Civil Engineering Course. Over in Jersey where Lovey spends his summer playing baseball with the village nine, they call him the human octopus. He has been able to maintain this reputation at Bucknell and since being put at thu half-way stopping off place between the second and third sacks on the ' Varsity, he has .gathered in al- most everything that came his way. When not busy oiling his glove and wishing for the season to start, Lovey can usually be found with his horn. His concerts are famous and he frequently sends his melo- dies fortli on the midni.ght air for the entertainment and delectation of his friends. 49 Walter Hertz Mann, Sunbury. Sunbury H. S. Course. Sigma Tau; Civil Engineering As one of the several Sunbury representatives Wallie is an excellent student and always accom- plishes something. He has a contagious laugh and his friends frequently gather about him just to enjoy the ha! ha! part of his nature. Sara E. Meyer, Rebersburg. York Haven Kormal; L ' Agenda Board; Pi Beta Phi; C. E. A.; Latin Philosophical Course. In the hustle of modern life it is refreshing to find one person who can take things calmly. Sara always has her work well done but she creates no unnecessary confusion in tlie process. She is doubly gifted as she specializes in both small and big talk. So slender, tall and debonair; A queenly grace, a smile so rare; Reward quite worthy him who dare Attempt to win a maid so fair. r.LAixE James Morgan, Robertsdale. Bucknell . cademy: President Athletic Associa- tion; Class Football, 1, 2; Civil Engineering Course. A bunch of nerve, grit and stick-to-itiveness. Blaine has showed these qualities on more than one occasion where the honor of the class has been con- cerned. One might not call him altogether indiffer- ent but the soft coal regions have given him an air of independence not otherwise to be acquired. Should Morgan ever chance to get all of his latent energies in motion at once he will surely create a commotion on tliis planet. 50 Fred McAllister, A est Pittston. Keystone Academy; Delta Theta Upsilon; ' Var- sity Football and Track. 1. 2; Glee Club; First Prize Sophomore Oratorical Contest; Banquet Toast, 1; Classical Course; Ministry. As soon as you hear Mac speak you think that he is either a village preacher or a town crier. He has the ministerial swing and resonance and when called upon to recite in classes he usually answers with an emphasis as if he knew what he is talkint; about. Mac is one of our B men and as such holds the esteem of the class and, we might also add, of some one in Scranton. The polish of another college year should surely jualif} ' him for the theological seminary. Norman Bl. ir McAnulty_, Barnesboro. Bucknell Academy; Kappa Sigma; Theta Delta Tau; Phi Delta Sigma; Manager ' Varsity Football; Class Baseball, 1. 2; Jurisprudence Course; Law. So busy has Mac been of late juggling football dates for next season ' s schedule that we barely get more than a flitting vision of him. When the sched- ule is not on his mind his most interesting problem is how to get out of law class in the evenings in time to catch the eight o ' clock trolley car for Milton. For- tunately he could spare enough time to pause and let the photographer snap his picture which we pre- sent herewith. Helen Brown McClure, W ' atsontown. Watsontown H. S. ; General Science Course. Helen spent a short time with us at the Seminary early in her course but the attractions at Watson- town and the joys of trolley-riding proved so entic- ing that she for. a time only paid us transitory visits. Lately she has been spending all her time with us. It is not that she likes her native village less, but that she likes Bucknell — not to be too explicit — more. 51 William McCullen, Philadelphia. South Jersey Institute: Class Football, 1. 2; Class Basketball, 1, 2, Captain, 2; Banquet Toast, 1; Civil Enafineerinsf Course. The heart smasher and the basketball star. Mac may always be found where he isn ' t. He is every- where, that is, he is not. Honors on the gridiron or in the basketball cage, with marks in his classes just high enough to pass, are the limits of his ambition. The girls all go crazy about him. His manners and address so fine. But tell to me kindly dear reader. Do Fussing and Engineer rhyme? LeRoy Icfarlaxd, Trenton, N. J- Bucknell Academy; -Alpha Sigma; L ' Agenda Board; Class Historian, 1, 2; Banquet Committee, 1; Junior Smoker: Banquet Toast, 2; Oratorical Con- test, 2; Junior Debate; Classical Course; Ministry. The historian and philosopher of our class. Mac is an ardent disciple of Elbert Plubbard and like the Fra of Eatt Aurora has some decidedlj ' original ideas which make him one of the most misunderstood men in college. Mac ' s ' ' advent at Bucknell w:is an accident. He read in the catalogue of our extensive oratory courses and he came, saw Bromley Smith, and stayed. A keen student, a smooth orator, and a jovial companion, he may always be found as a pop- ular participant in the social functions of the cl;iss or college. Laura Ellen jMcG. nNj Lewisburg. Bucknell Institute; Delta Delta Delta; Delta Phi: C. E. A.; Latin Philosophical Course. Laura ' s calm manner is in appropriate keeping with her womanly nature. Altho a careful student, she recognizes the need for periodical rela.xation and knows how to enjoy herself during play hours. Her cheery little laugh and greeting are always wel- comed at the Sem when her many duties permit her to visit us, for she has the advantage over the Sem- ites of the double privilege of Sem or town life. Laura is very religious, attends chapel and church -ervices regularly, and is verv much interested in V. .M. C. A. work. .52 Frank C. McNair, Philadelphia. Keystone Academy; Phi Kappa Psi; L ' Agenda Board; Asst. Manager Orange and Blue, 2; Associ- ate Editor, 3; Banquet Committee, 1; Greek Philoso- phical Course; Ministry. Despite the fact that his good intentions are fre- quently misunderstood Mac has the faculty of mak- ing good in almost everything he attempts. He is a hustler but no diplomat, and his achievements are all the result of hard work. His progressive activity causes him to be blamed for about everything that happens in college. Even the Freshies had the temerity to accuse him of doing all the hazing in his Sophomore year and Mac very good naturedly met the charge without comment. A fair Quaker City maiden is said to be the anchor which is keeping this youth from drifting at too swift a pace with the college current. Harold McCli-rk Neff, Sunbury. Bucknell Academy; Sigma Chi; Class Football. 1, 2; Banquet Committee, 1; General Science Course Taff drifted into Bucknell something less than a century ago and just naturally grew up into the college from the prep . Altho he got into our ranks just through this accidental sprouting process in his growth, he has displayed a thoroughly loyal class spirit. He is good in almost all lines of sport, and is an especially artistic pole vaulter. Once he went as high as 2 feet 11 inc hes and fell and broke his arm. And now he has given up vaulting and is de- voting his time to his pipe and an occasional suit . Daniel Henry Nester, New Ringgold. Keystone Normal; L ' Agenda Board; Junto; Ban- quet Committee, 2; Classical Course; Teaching. Altho Nester conies from Kutztown and knows Mannie , Hain, Brownie , and John Kurtz, attempts to make us believe that he is Dutch have been un- successful. We might be convinced but for the fact that after two years at Bucknell he has proved im- mune to the wiles of the Sem and, unlike those real Deutschers, cannot be accused of even throwing fond glances at die huebschen Maedchen. Nester was re- cruited to the class in our Sophomore year but has been quick to get acquainted and has added strength to our ranks. 53 i iHUii ' iOLA Douglas Nisbit, West Pittston. West Pittston H. S.; General Science Course. In this quiet young Junior one would scarcely rec- ognize the hilarious Freshman whom we used to know. Violet came from Scotland not so many sum- mers ago which accounts for her love for the ballads of her native heath. Browning for her has nothing to compare with The Land of the Leal . Pride of being a Douglas and her never quite repressible liking for the wild and exciting, have kept the ele- vation lively for the past three years. XoRMAN Gould Oliver, Burlington, N. J. Van Rensselaer Seminary; Demosthenean; Sopho- more Declamation Contest; Junior Debate; Banquet Toast, 2; Classical Course; Ministry. Haberdashery shops might forever close their doors as far as Oliver is concerned for he has fore- sworn white shirts ever since a fair maiden over in Jersey put the taboo on stiff laundered bosoms in his Sophomore year. Fidelity to the girl he left at home and an intense interest in a theoretical course on muscle-building keep him so closely confined to his room, that lots of us haven ' t had a chance to get acquainted with him. Oliver was the chaplain and Rod Cross agent of the hazing gangs in his Sopho- more year and he usually went along on all expedi- tions to hold the hands of shivering Freshmen wliile they painted the bridge or to administer consolation to those in more sore distress. John W. tson People.s, Jersey Sliore. Jersey Shore H. S.; Sigma Alpha Epsilon; Phi Delta Sigma; Class Football, 2; General Science Course; Law. It was witli difiiculty that John kept his eyes open long enough to pose for this photograph. Life for him is a series of naps and it is with difficulty that he shakes off his sleepiness long enough to eat occa- sionally and .attend a few classes. Some of his friends explain that he lost so much sleep at nights during his Sophomore year that he hasn ' t caught up yet. John is due to wake up by the time he ' s a Senior and tlien the class may expect big things of him. 54 Ellis L. Persing, Snydertown. Susquehanna University; Latin Philosophical Course; Teaching. While at Susquehanna Persing heard of our illus- trious class at Bucknell and decided to join the band with all possible haste. His greatest difficulties since his arrival here have been to keep his dormy door locked securely whenever he ventures forth to classes, and to convince Dr. Groflf that his name is not Miss Persing. Percy is quiet and unassuming and we would think him immune to the fascinations of the fair se-x but for the suspicious regularity of his weekly trips to Snydertown. Clarex ' ce Reiser Pugii, Pottsville. Pottsville H. S,: Sigma Tau; L ' Agenda Board; Cap and Dagger; Junior Prom. Committee; Banquet Toast, 1; Civil and Mining Engineering Courses. Naturally ambitious to do some marvelous feat in construction work, Pugh is said to be contemplating the running of an air-line from 17 West Wing to the Reading freight station — almost. He can recite Shakespeare and quote Trigonometric formulae by the yard. W ' c are afraid he missed his calling when he took up engineering, however, for his library in- dicates a fondness for literature not technical. Hester Ellen Pyles, Camp Springs, Md. Washington (D. C.) H. S.; Pi Beta Phi; Frill and Frown; Latin Philosophical Course. Altho we do not like to profit by another ' s loss, yet we feel this was the case when George Washing- ton University lost Hester and we got her. She has a decidedly logical turn of mind and, according to Ethics, asks the How and Why of a problem rather than the What . This process of question- ing enters into her friendships and renders them more valuable because she makes them worth while. An invigorating atmosphere seems to hover about Hester because of her keen intellect and progressive per- sonality. 55 ' ' I Gretchen Annette Radack, Titusville. Titusville H. S.; Pi Beta Phi; Vice President, Frill and Frown; L ' Agcnda Board; Latin Pliilosophical Conrsc. Some people can do many things at once and do them well and Gretchen ha-s at least learned how to study her next day ' s historj ' lesson in between re- hearsals of the Dramatic Club. It isn ' t history but sociology with which she fills in the empty moments liefore Verein meetings. When not so preoccupied she may usually be found cultivati ng her voice or cultivating friendships. While Gretchen speaks Ger- man fluently, her greatest success in the linguisti j line seems to be a little Chinese song with vvhicli sne comforts homesick Semites. Eleanor Graham Raup, Milton. Milton H. S.; General Science Course. Something of the mystery which hovers over the Lab for the person not familiar with it is to be found about those who come in touch with us only once a day. By observation we know that Eleanor is more than willing to accommodate others. She is fond of experimental chemistry and we believe she is worship- ful of Ethics by the low, respectful tone in which she recites to Prexy. Dora Meacham R.wmond, Cotidersport. Coudersport H. S.; Pi Beta Phi; Latin Pliilosophi- cal Course; Teaching. People say that Dora makes them feel at ease by her ready display of interest in words and looks. Do ' s laugh is catching and she is always ready to laugh at a good joke and to tell one, too. The great- est disappointment of her college life occurred when Prexy refused to let her take Bible as a fourth study. Her adaptability is illustrated by the way she can take the part of a French maid in a play or preside as hostess over her own fudge parties. 56 • .;♦ .J ' .J ■ ■« William Franklin Redcav, Reading. Reading H. S.: Phi Kappa Psi; Class Basketball and Baseball, 1, 2; Banquet Committee, 1; Civil En- gineering Course. Here is the noisiest man in the college. He started the racket in his Freshman year and has been getting louder ever since. Indeed Bill} ' would be al- together unbearable but for the fact that friends in- duced a patent noise absorber, in the person of Bonehead F ' etterman, to room with him this year. The only trouble is that the absorber frequently blows off under the high tension and tears off chunks of noise that triplicate the original. However, Noisy . the son of J. Elias Redcay, has done good work for the class in baseball and basketball and has won pop- ularity because of his congeniality. Walter Daniel Rhoades, Allentown. Allentown H. S.; Sigma Chi; Class President, 1; Class Football, Basketball, and Baseball, 1, 2, 3; Cap- tain Class Baseball, 2; Civil Engineering Course. Dusty is the Joshua of our tribe, who in our Freshman year led us across the Susquehanna into the Promised Land and directed us in the smiting of the Philistine Sopliomores. Altho he has since sur- rendered his rod to other leaders, he has continued to show his class spirit by active participation in tlu ' inter-class games. Dusty ' is an engineer and ha discovered that he can determine the heighth of tlu- college hill from the bottom without climbing it. He is at present working out deductions to see if he can get down town to meals without walking. Nicholas Wihteman Rosenberg Unioiitown. Uniontown H. .S.; Assistant Manager ' Varsity Bas- ketball; Manager Class Basketball, 1; L ' . ' genda Board; Law Club; Jurisprudence Course; Law. This flaxen-haired, rosy-cheeked, cherubic-appear- ing individual is not of the tall and willowy variety. In fact, as to physique, he more closely resembles one of Heinz ' s 57 , commonly called a dill pickle. Nick was a shining target for the Sophs who saw him coming as far off as Montandon, but friends gave him a safe harbor during a tumultuous Fresh- man year and he has been preserved to us intact. He is still gentle in disposition, regardless of the fact that he loafed around Vic Smith ' s corner in Philly for two weeks trying to toughen up. 57 John Oram Lvte Rosek, Woodsboro, M 1. Walkersville H. S.; L ' Agenda Board; Assistant Manager ' Varsity Track; Electrical Engineering Course. The third of the Roser triplets. John has shown those same propensities for hustling that were char- acteristic of his older kin. He drifted into the ' burg as green a Freshie as the rest of us and flourished wonderfully beneath the sheltering shadow of two big brothers. The shadow , while conducive to rapid and peaceful growth, has left this budding en- gineer a trifle tender, but eager nevertheless, to get better acquainted with college ways. K.ATHERiNE AI.ARiE Rv. N, Asbtirv Park, X. J. Neptune H. S.; Frill and Frown; Latin Philosophi- cal Course. Kitty comes to us from the city by the summer sea and is of the type of the proverbial summer girl. She is a genuine good-times maiden, merry of laugh and ever ready for fun, and if one ever should spoil her disposition she would doubtless come out again in five minutes with another just as good. Her irre- sistible good humor bubbles over in song, in verse, and in a courteous friendliness that makes an acquaintance with her a pleasure. Edgar Andrew Sable, Xanticoke. Nanlicoke H. S. ; Sigma Tau; Banquet Toast, 1; Manager Class Baseball, 2; Civil Engineering Course. Ach du Deutscher! Andy can bluff the leg off a mahogany table. Nothing can stop him. Since his arrival at Bucknell he has made desperate eflforts to get into society and he now hopes to achieve this end by means of the many secret societies to which he belongs. In fact, Andy has joined every organiza- tion in college that he could get into with the possible exception of the Ministerial .Association and his fluent flow of oratory should make him eligible for that. He maj ' sometimes be found in a Sunbury shoe store where he drops in to tell his friends how an Ex is gained, not by application, but by judicial salv- ing of ihe Prof . 58 Ri ' Tii Summers Safford, Montrose. Montrose H. S.; Delta Delta Delta; L ' Ageiula Board; Latin Philosophical Course. Gentle sounding, soft spoken name this but the owner is its counterpart, for her most striking char- acteristic is Rnthlessness — a small fault, however, by comparison. With many loyal friends and some equally loj ' al enemies, Sookie is a felt factor in the scliool life, sometimes good and sometimes bad, some- times going to missionary meetings — tho oftener not — and sometimes running opposition to Christian En- deavor with her Sunday evening concerts. Sookie loves to have things happen. If something would only go up in an airship or up in smoke or do some- thing else exciting. Bonfires come so seldom! But there, ' Sookie cheer up. the world ' ll be coming to an end after while and then there ' ll be something doing. HjHI John Gurney Sholl, Jr., Burlington, X. J. Editor of the L ' Agenda; Van Rensselaer Semi- nar3 ' ; Demosthenean; Orange and Blue Board, 1, 2; Inter-Society Debate, 1; Junior Debate; Special Jurisprudence Course; Journalism. Here we have a passionate wooer of Pop Per- rine ' s literary Muse, and solely on this reputation has Sholl been entrusted with the editorship of this pub- lication. His passion for writing, however, is second to his devotion to historical research and he has be- come a local authority in Greek history, especially the cause of the fall of Troy. His geniality and never failing humor have made him mighty popular with us all and we prophesy a new epoch in journal- ism just as soon as he .gets going. Lym. n Cyrus Siireve, Erie. Eric H. S.; L ' . genda Board; Phi Gamma Delta; Theta Delta Tau: Phi Delta Sigma; Banquet Com- mittee, 2; Cap and Dagger; Junior Prom. Committee; Jurisprudence Course: Law. Gentle reader be not deceived! . ltho we call this individual Si , he cannot boast of any of the ear- marks of the rural districts, . ' bout the only farming he ever did was to harvest apples in the fall from nearby orchards and he distmctly prefers speeding his father ' s auto to driving old Nancy to market. Since coming to college he has undertaken to reform MacAnulty but as yet no change can be noticed in Mac. Judging from his quiet, energetic, and per- severing ways, we predict a bright future for Si in law. 59 m - i Robert Dean Sisson, Factoryville. Keystone Academy; Keystone-Bucknell Latin Philosophical Course; Teaching. Club; Rumor has it that Bobbie was such a cut-up at home that his parents took the desperate means of reforming him by sending him to college. So wild was he at first that the Sophs, fearful of the conse- quences of leaving him in the class fight, smuggled him oflf into the country the night before the scrap. In his second year Bobbie was known to the trembling Frcshies as Hell Fire and he would have put the town barbers out of business had he not been restrained. He is quieting down now, however, and e.xcept for occasional dissipations at Milton, is devot- ing his time to his text books and to directing the chapel choir. Fred ' illi. m Small, Hammonton. N. J. Hammonton H. S.; Kappa Delta Phi; Engineer- ing Club; Civil Engineering Course. A mingling of modesty and pride gives rise to the declaration that this is the only Small thing in our class — excepting Little . His name, however, is not homologous with the place he fills in the class, as those who took part in the class fights and proc-post- ing scraps can testif} ' . LTnusually quiet when not in action, his quiet demeanor has gained for hiin the appellation of Deacon , altho he aspires to become an engineer rather than a ministerial. Edgar Ambrose Snyder, ' eaversville. Millersville Normal; Sigma Chi; ' Varsity Football, 1, 2; Chemistry Course. Fat is from Weaversville — wherever that is. He came to us possessing a diction that was rich in its confusion of v ' s and w ' s and an utter disregard for the principles of English. He has so much im- proved now as to adopt the college vernacular of wery vclcome . Fat ' s specialty is Botany, only he finds it inconvenient to have his recitations in the Laboratory and his analyses in a Milton parlor. He was for two seasons the bulwark of the ' varsity ' s football lino and won renown for his class and his college. 60 .♦.: ' .: Paul Clinton Snyder, Nuniidia. Bloomsburg Normal; Junior Prom. Committee; General Science Course; Teaching. The only way one can tell these two Snyders apart is that Pop has a little the advantage of Lizzie in the matter of adipose tissue. Snyder and his team-mate Shoemaker were two of the heftiest hazers in the class last year, but since Shoey ' s departure, the former has settled down and started in to take on a little upperclass dignity. He is a practical student of economics and after buying books during his first few months in coUe.ge he came to the conclusion that it was a losing investment. He now borrows them from his neighbors. His sole aim is to get a string of E.x ' s and it is to his credit that he gets them. Jesse Kimmel Spurgeox. L ' niontnwn. Junior President: Uniontown H. S.; Demosthe- nean; Junior Debate; Banquet Committee, 1: L ' - gen- da Board; Jurisprudence Course: Law. Politics comes naturally to Huck , who, accord- ing to tradition, was reared in a ballot box instead of the proverbial cradle. Fond relatives named him Jesse but the name is a misfit, for instead of being the progenitor of a great leader he is himself the leader. Huck was widowed early in his Sophomore year by the official demise of Red Hodge. The weeds of mourning ha -c long since been laid tenderly awa} ' and the bereaved one now ventures occasion- ally to cast furtive glances towards the Sem. . close student of Blackstone, Huck declares that he will make law his profession but it s still a question as to whether the political plum-tree may not tempt his steps awaj ' from the bench. Anne Stein first, Titusville. Titusville H. S.; Frill ;ind Frown; Classical Course. We may be a little presumptive in considering Anne as one of our class as she is finishing her course this year. But since she has been doing such suc- cessful work along with 1911 we make this one more claim upon her as one of us. With her due share of that invaluable asset, nerve , Anne leaves no doubt in the minds of any of us that she will achieve suc- cess. She might very well be a model for she wears a new hat or coat, be it her own or some neighbor ' s, with a grace and style that imparts to it a distinc- tion never entirely lost afterward by its subsequent wearers. 61 Stuart Williams Sweet, Utica, X. Y. Swarthmore Prep.; Sigma Alpha Epsiloii; Tlieta Delta Tau; Phi Delta Sigma; Class Football, 1, 2, Captain, 1; Class Track Team, 1, 2; Gymnasium Team, 1, 2; Electrical Engineering Course. Ute has always been somewhat of a recluse so far as society at Bucknell is concerned, but it is re- markable how he will open his heavy artillery when any one gives him a chance to talk about Trinity College. Most of us are satisfied to believe him as that institution is far enough away to be safe — for us at least. The college ' s reputation, according to the catalogue print, has been saved by Ute who does so many stunts on the lone pair of parallel bars and the horizontal bar, that amazed Freshmen are actually convinced that we have a fully equipped Gvn .

Cedarcroft Academy; Sigma Tau; ' Varsity Basket- ball. 2, 3; ' Varsity Track, 1, 2; Class Football, Bas- ketball, Baseball and Track Teams, 1, 2, 3; Junior Prom. Committee; General Science Course. In Rube , also familiarly known as Twitch , we beheld the embodiment of innocence and purity when he arrived at Bucknell — but such is college life. He smoked his first cigarette while hiding from vicious Sophomores under the arched bridge back of the Chemical Lab. In his Freshman year, Rube was an important figure in the interclass games but he was so charitably inclined that he nearly gave the Sophomores a victory in basketball by trying to throw the ball into his own basket. He ' s got the beef and the class and the college have not been slow in appreciating him. John Webster Trauger, Revei-e. Manager of the L ' Agenda; Keystone Normal; Forum; Orange and Blue Board; General Science Course; Teaching. Web was among those volunteers who were mustered into our class in the Sophomore year. He is a good sticker and despite the fact that he has Mannie Warmkessel for a roommate and lives con- tinually in a dense literary atmosphere, he is prosaic enough to be a hustler. A close student, Web may be charged with taking such snits as Physics, Chem- istry, and German. He really hadn ' t enough to do and took on a fourth study and the L ' Agenda man- agership just to fill in his spare time. 62 Jonas Tuman, Atlantic Highlands, X. J. Law Club; New Jersey Club; Chairman Junior Smoker Committee; Class Football, 1, 2; Jurispru- dence Course; Law. Jonie is a product of Jersey and he likes to tell you so. His ambition is to become a Notary Re- public after he has graduated and has completed his law course. Jonie is an authority on shows and theatrical folk, being acquainted with them all. When not boning on Blackstone or some other subject in Political Science, he maj ' usually be found taking a peep at the maidens in the highways of Sunbury or Shamokin. But first and last of all, he ' s from Jersey, and if you want to know what ' s happening over on the Jersey side , just ask him. James Arthur Tyson, Montgomery. Muncy Normal; Sigma Alpha Epsilon; Chairman Junior Sleigh Ride Committee; Cap and Dagger; Inter-Society Debate, 1; Junior Debate; Banquet Toast, 2; L ' Agenda Board; Jurisprudence Course. Marked propensities for fussing and an utter dis- regard for light subjects form the rare combination of characteristics which make Jimmy the object of much admiration and wonder. Jimmy is a student with all that the term implies, but he is not so deeply buried in his text books as to be blind to the advan- tages and refreshing ettects of occasional social diver- sions. Altho we sometimes mistrust that he is fickle, we would rather prefer the term versatile in referring to the promiscuous manner in which he scatters his attentions among the gentler sex. Jose Andres Villalon, Puerto Plata, W. I. Millersville Normal; Phi Kappa Psi; Manager Class Tennis, 2; Banquet Toast, 2; Civil Engineering •Course. Those dark, tender eyes and smooth, shiny hair make Joe one of the most ardent fussers of our class. Because of his genial disposition and good nature, the King of Santo Domingo has won many friends since his sojourn among the Yankees of Pennsyl- vania. He has become unusually proficient in the use of his adopted tongue and takes pains to impress this upon the other students by rollicking Ainerican love songs rendered in a rich tenor at about that hour of the night when the rest of us like most to sleep. 63 Hyman AIayor W ' einstein, Kersey. Kersey H. S.; ' Varsity and Class Track Teams, 2; Class Football, 2; Biological Course; IMedicinc. Altho W ' einic has never been to Paree. the citi- zens of tliat lively village have nothing on him in tlie line of dress. In his Sophomore year he sacri- liced enough time from dress parade to slip into a gym suit and show Doc Hoskins how to run a track team. After breaking most of the hurdles, tearing up the track, and giving himself a sand-paper massage on the cinders which put him on crutches for a fort- night, W ' einic left the job of coaching to Doc and traded his running shoes for a pair of spats. Verna Amanda Wiiitaker, Millville, N. J. Millville H. S.; Pi Beta Phi; Latin Philosophical Course. Verna is credited with being one of the most sociable of our class. She likes to gather about her other congenial spirits and altho she sometimes pre- sides over such functions with a German book in her lap, her tea parties have the reputation of being no dry affairs. We are not quite certain why German should be quite so fascinating to her. Possibly the English Verein which flourished a few years ago might afiford some explanation. Friends say that Verna ' s neatness is an expression of her accurate and careful mind and that the steadfastness of- her character makes her a desirable acquaintance. Edward Reiming ' ooD, Jersey Shore. Dickinson Seminary: Sigma Chi; Manager Class Track Team, 1; General Science Course; Business. Last of our list, this youth holds the important background position in the perspective of the per- sonnel of our class. His most brilliant feature is his head — not the inside keenness but the outside vivid- ness — which has won for him the romantic name of Rusty among his fellows. Rust} ' ' s single claim to fame is as a martyr to truthfulness. He once modestly admitted to Prexy that he had not studied his Psychology lesson and was forthwith dismissed from class, hut his fame will roll on after metaphysi- cal problems arc long forgotten. 64 Courtesy of JI. V. Huyette EAST COLLEGE ENTRANCE 65 SOPHOMORE-FRESHMAN CLASS SCRAP 66 67 o m u 68 History of the Class of 1912 XN tlie fall of 1908 one hundred and twenty-one of the best l)oys and girls tliat the world could afford met in the chemical laboratory of Bucknell to hold their first organized meeting as the Class of 1912. The number has since decreased. Some were not here to answer to their names at the beginning of this year, while others were not ]:)resent even at the end of last year, and one esteemed by us all was taken not only from our midst, but from all earthly companions. To our number we were glad to welcome this year several new members, and at present we have a strong and reliable class. At our first appearance the upper-classmen said that the greenness of grass was no comparison to our verdancy, but we never could see it that way. Perhaps we were guilty of a few slight misdemeanors, which, now that we have attained the rank of Sophomores, we see were caused by mis- understandings rather than by any wish to be smart. After our Dean had repeatedly warned the girls they finally learned that it was a crime, an awful crime, to walk with a man ; and after the Sophomores had forcibly demon- strated to the boys, by depriving them of their curly locks, that it was a capital offence to loiter on the bridge and converse with cute Semites — after all these vicissitudes, we arrived at the age of discretion and have now set- tled down to study and work. In .speaking of football we will pass to the memorable game of last fall. It was exciting. The Freshmen were ahead until almost the last minute when a touchdown and a goal made the score in favor of the Sophomore team. Be- tween the halves the Freshmen gathered around a telegraph pole near the gymnasium and hoisted a class flag. When the game was over the Sopho- mores rushed to the scene and as the pole had been greased, other means of reaching the flag had to be resorted to. One plucky Sophomore climbed a pole some distance away, crossed the wires, snatched the flag and burned it in triumph. Who of this class does not remember our Freshman banquet? What reckless breaking of rules, what utter disregard of consequences character- ized this event ! And afterwards what heart breaking lectures and punish- ments ! A goodly number of the class gathered in the banquet hall of the Graemar Hotel at Shamokin. There, with toasts and youthful jollity, the 69 evening was spent, leaving a pleasant memory in the minds of all the par- ticipants. For an account of the Sophomore banquet this year, anyone inter- ested will ha e to inquire of any of the large number of twenty men ' ' who attended. Thus has the Class of 1912 gone on through victory and defeat, are not discouraged and never have been, for we can say with the poet : We If that which shone afar so grand Turn to nothing in thy hand. On again — the virtue lies In the struggle, not the prize . 70 1912 Class Poem A DAY T first tlie morning dawns, A dainty fairy thing of rose and gold. Timid and afraid as it beholds Life ' s mysteries, quite mingled and unknown. Thus, the Freshman year. And soon the noon appears, A brilliant creature, confident in all her powers, Unlike the gentle, dewy morning hours, Self-satisfied and bold, she has no fears. And so, the Sophomore year. Noon and afternoon then meet. The one quite gay, the other ' s radiance more subdued. Like the dazzling sun by heavy mists obscured. So still and calm, her lovliness complete. Like this, the Junior year. The sun ' s rays fade And twilight almost clothes the world in gray, Until the stars appear to light the way To greater things that God hath made. So is the Senior year. 71 Sophomore Class, 1912 THE PRESIDENT OFFICERS President ----- Marc Luther Baldwin Vice President - - - Clarence Blake Brewer Secretary ----- Annette Amelia Stahl Treasurer . - . .

History of the Class of 1913 HE Class of 1913 entered college with a rush that surprised every- ■ J body. It was during the morning of the third day of the school year that the courage and spirit of the class was first shown. On the morning of the annual class rush we won a glorious victory which will be remembered always by those who saw it. The same loyalty was again displayed in the inter-class football game when the Freshmen played with such fearlessness and skill as has been rarely equalled by any other Freshman team. To the impartial spectators, we clearly outplayed our opponents in every point of the game but, through circumstances over which we had no control, we lost by a score of eight to six. It was the closest score in any Sophomore-Freshman game for many years. The members of the class have won distinction not only in scholarship but in other college activities, for instance in the number of representatives on the ' Varsity Football Team. In all branches of work, they give promise of excellence. Since our class has accomplished much in this first year, much has come to be expected of it. From the way it has advanced so far there can be no doubt that it will do great things in the future, not only at Bucknell but out in the world, and will attain such achievements that will do honor to the Class and to our Alma Mater. 79 Nineteen-Thirteen : HE proph ets and sages of all climes and ages M J Have declared that thirteen is an omen of ill. But we ' re not old fashioned enough to believe it; ' Tis a shame if such follies should cling to us still. Thru learning and uprightness we ' ll win the honor And esteem of our fellows. Then all must agree That this class of Bucknell has proved beyond question Nought but good luck accompanies the one and the three. We ' ll seek not to dazzle the world with our glory, Nor vaunt of the honors which we shall obtain. How can we discern what the future holds for us ? Any boasting on our part would be worse than vain. We ' ll simply endeavor to do each day ' s duties, To bear, uncomplaining, our part in the strife; Use ev ' ry advantage that crosses our pathway To make each move count in this battle of life. Some laugh and declare that our hopes are but empty. Let them jeer at our dreams, and our plans for the fight. The effort is weak; but the standard is lofty. Ah, we know we must struggle and toil up the height. And so, for the sake of the tie which now binds us — For the fame of the class and of dear old Bucknell, We ' ll each help the other ; we ' ll each do our utmost, That wlien we ]ia e done, we can say, ' Twas done well . So, Nineteen Thirteen, you must make and not mar us, For the Keys to the gate of our future you hold. INIay the doors, yet unopened, conceal a smooth patliway. Which Time, in its flight, to our eyes ' ill unfold. 80 Freshman Class, 1913 THE PRESIDENT President - Vice President Secretary - Treasurer Poetess Historian OFFICERS Frank Raymond Richards Ralph Amos Still Hannah Cecil Bertin John McCulloch Mary Jane Irey James Focht McClure 81 The Freshman Class, 1913 John Newton Arnd,t JOLETTA May Arthur Kenneth Bartleson Banks Bright Wilkes Beck Charles Baker Bernhart Hannah Cecil Bertin John Wesley Bressler Mary Margaret Brown- Edwin Charles Brush Cecil Russell Childs Albert Mahlon Cober James Daniel Collison Frederick Lincoln C ' ondict Miles Elton Dean Salvador DePierro Channing Pontius Derr John Conrad Egolf Harry Scheidy Everett Elmer Ellsworth Fairchild Walter Dayton Farley John Dietriech Wittich Fetter Marion Fischler Howard A ' oelker Fisher Thomas John Foley William Beinhabt Frick Charles Adam Fryling Mary Louisa Galer Warner Miller Galloway Frederick Knapp Getz Eebekah Monaghan Gibbons Harold Wendell Giffin John Edward Gleason Marwood Benjamin Glover Howard Marshall Goehring Baymond Eussell Goehring James Bowen Griffith Max Grossman George Freeman Haines Benjamin Soloman Harris Berkley Yirginius Hastings Orwill Van Wickle Hawkins Adda Hay ' man William Shimer Heinen Ruth Tustin Heisling Carlton Ballard Hooker Ethel Margaret Hottenstein Mary Jane Irey Logan Earl Jackson Alexis Woolman Keen Harry Xing Kelly Milton Jersey City, N.

The Question Answered in Personal Letters by the Presidents of America ' s Leading Colleges V ITHOUl ' venturing any more of an introduction than is necessary I I to give to the reader a clear conception of the question and its an- vA ' swers, we present lierewith personal letters from the presidents of several of the leading institutions of learning in this country, in which the writers express their opinions as to what they helieve to be the greatest value of a college education. The very broaching of such a question finds its ex- cuse in the fact that college men are frequently declared — though in many instances unjustly — to be failures in practical life. Where such failures really exist, and it must be admitted that they some- times do, the fault seems to lie in the fact that these men have failed to grasp the real intent and purpose of a college course. Many of these mistakes may be traced from the one extreme of too much social diversion, with its tendency to divert from study and mental culture, to the other extreme of too much application to the theoretical and not enough of the practical side of life. Educators have made and are making a life study of this problem and, while they may differ in some respects in their views, their underlying prin- ciples are largely in harmony and the mark which they aim at is the same. It is for this reason that we have gone direct to the college presidents, convinced that they can give the most helpful answers. Their statements, which follow, are necessarily brief, but they are clear and direct, and they unquestionably point to those elements in a college course which make an education worth ' ' - PRESIDENT HARRIS The purpose of education is character and efficiency. The character aimed at is the man developed harmoniously in all his powers; the efficiency will be the outflow of such character in all the relations of life. Christian education takes Jesus as the type of right character and His life as the guide of action. Office of the. Provost, 400 Chestnut Street. UNIVERSITY OF PENNSYLVANIA Philadelphia March 9, 1910. Editor of U Agenda: My Dear Sir: You have asked me for an opinion as to the benefits of a college or university education. There are so many advantages to be derived from college training that I find it difficult to set down what I consider the most important. The first object of such a training should be, of course, to develop the faculties, so that a person may think clearly and logically and that by contact with men and books his horizon may be widened and his joy of living thereby increased. And this, I believe, is accomplished, to a large extent. The actual and permanent good which a student derives from a college trailing may, I think, be enumerated as follows: First: Enlarged knowledge of the subjects of thought which have engaged the attention of men from the beginning of history, which may include a fund of gen- eral and also more or less specialized knowledge. Second: Breadth of view and ability to appreciate and understand the utterances of the best minds of all ages on many subjects. Third: Associations of great value in connection with friendships, and also acquaintances formed in college among men of different traditions, and from different environments, and from different parts of our own country as well as from foreign lands. Coupled with this is the practical result which comes from attendance on a college or university course whereby a man becomes a member of a great fraternity 102 of men with strong bonds of sympathy. A college or university man, simply from the fact that he is such, is possessed of a passport which admits to much that is nec- essarily closed to men who have had no such associations. Fourth: A general largeness of thought and of life which characterize the pur- poses for which universities exist. Together with the above benefits which accrue from a college or university train- ing, there conies also increased power as a result of knowledge gained from men as well as from books, and a realization that knowledge is power, when it is accompanied by ability to use it in service. The discipline of faculties is of the greatest importance to the student, if we con- strue discipline as tlie resultant of association; for, the period in which the young man is in college, the privilege is accorded him of close association with trained men, who have made it the business of their lives to learn and propagate the best that has been known and thought, in every domain of human interest and activity. These results, as outlined, come to the great majority of young men in our colleges and universities, and I think they fully answer the question as to whether a college education is worth while. Faithfully yours. C!nCo,C. T November ISth, 1909. PRINCETON UNIVERSITY President ' s Room. Princeton, N. J. Editor of V Agenda: My Dear Sir: In reply to your letter of November 13th, I would say that what seems to me of greatest advantage to college students is the discipline of their facul- ties derived from serious attention to their studies. Incidentally, the contacts of col- lege life no doubt do a great deal to transform them from boys into men, but they are benefited by college in proportion as they take its duties seriously and subordi- nate its pleasures. Very truly yours, y ' ' Xr December 3, 1909. YALE UNIVERSITY President ' s Office, New Haven, Connecticut Woodlridge Ball, 105 Wall tiirtet. Editor of L ' Agenda: My Dear Sir: I regret to say that in a subject so complex as this brief answers are almost always misleading. You will find my general views in my last annual re- port, of which I am sending you a copy. You are of course at liberty to make any Faithfully yours, extracts from it which you please. jUu-, - Taking advantage of the liberty granted by President Hadley, we quote him as follows from his latest annual report: The ideal college education seems to me to be one where a student learns things that he is not going to use in after life, by methods that he is going to use. The former element gives the breadth, the latter element gives the training . HARVARD UNIVERSITY Cambridge January 12, 1910. Editor of L ' Agenda: Dear Sir: I am afraid that the subject of what is the greatest benefit of a college education is too large a one to be answered in a paragraph. It is one that we never cease to discuss at great length, and are trying to demonstrate here. Yours very truly, ]03 Ijil THE PENNSYLVANIA STATE COLLEGE Office of the Fimuhiit. State College, Pa. Editor of V Agenda : February 16, 1910. Replying to your request for a brief summary of my opinion of the value of the college education, I beg to offer off-hand tlie following; To re-form boyhood idols into manhood ideals, to replace home-control by self- control, to develop will power and an ambition, to learn to estimate men and things at their true value, and to awaken to the fact that cleanliness of body, habit, speech and thought always characterizes a gentleman — to gain these abilities subjectively and unconsciously while objectively pursuing a curriculum only a small part of which you will probably ever use — this is the final measure of your college education. Trusting this will be satisfactory to you. I am. Very truly yours. UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN Ann Arbor Jan. 26, 1910. Editor of L ' Agenda : The greatest value of a college education is to develop one ' s manhood. Very truly yours, SYRACUSE UNIVERSITY Office of the Chancellor. Syracuse, N. Y., Jan. 21st, 1910. Editor of L ' Agenda : My Dear Mr. Sholl: My time is so crowded that I am not able to discuss the question at length but submit two or three sentences. Yours trulv. Dictated. The chief value of a college education is in mental discipline. If a man is thor- oughly disciplined, he will acquire knowledge and have power to use it. . while ago Who ' s Who in America ' found that of 9.643 men who had made notable success in business, 6.711 were college graduates. This is a conclusive answer to the practical side of college education. UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA President ' s Office. Minneapolis Feb. S. 1910. The greatest value of a college education is to fit a man for a useful life by disci- plining his powers and opening to him ni some measure the fields of knowledge, so that he can do most effectively what he undertakes within the range of his knowledge and can know where to get more knowledge if he needs it. y,y A 104 LELAND STANFORD JUNIOR UNIVERSITY Offire of the FresUlent. Stanford University, Cal., February 11, 1910. Editor of L ' Agenda: Dear Sir: There are a great many possible values of higher education, and I have discu-ised them from various points of view. Which is the greatest depends on the individual himself, but a knowledge of the best that men have thought and done in the world, a broad-minded, generous outlook on things, is the greatest part of it. I liave also said that the secret of power should be disclosed by a college education One which does not give that has been a sham somewhere. If any college man is a failure in practical life, it is because he is a faihire to start with, and because of his false start he has steered his college course badly. •. , • j j i. A man gets out of college what he comes prepared to take, provided indeed that the college has it to offer. Very truly yours. . . t«J kA THE TEMPLE UNIVERSITY Editor of V Agenda: Philadelphia November 19, 1909. Dear Sir: President Conwell being ill in bed has no opportunity to answer your letter of November 13th further than to request me to say to you that the value of a college education lies almost entirely in tlie discipline of mind which fits a graduate for taking up almost anything with which he may come in contact. Very truly yours. Tfa U . UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS Austin Secretary. February 4, 1910. Office of the Presi lent. Editor of L ' Agenda: Your note of inquiry addressed to my predecessor. Dr. D. F. Houston, has reached m y hands for reply. There is little value in the education given by colleges with weak faculties and low standards. The greatest advantage to the graduates of strong institutions who avail themselves of their opportunities is the mental training they have secured which enables ihem to deal effectively with the problems of life as they arise. Very truly yours, BROWN UNIVERSITY President. President ' s Office. Providence January 21, 1910. Editor of V Agenda: In reply to your letter of January 17th, I seiid you a little statement regarding the object of a college course. Sincerely yours, Enc. Hr The object of a college course is to enable a man to find himself and realize him- self as part of a great social order. The bud unfolds into tlower and fruit only when touched by the rain, played on by the sunshine, and stimulated by a thousand energies outside itself. The student may remain shut up in a selfish and bitter individualism unless he too is played upon by the subtle restless forces of college life. Those forces are many; the garnered knowledge of the past, the triumphs of mod- ern science, the beauty of art and nature, the vital contact of inspiring teachers, the daily association with wholesome undergraduates. The college student is not prepar- ing to be a doctor or journalist or engineer or diplomat — but to be a man, so in touch with the finest things and people as to ' set life ste;idily and see it whole ' . 105 106 Y.

It had no official usher- ing in, like some other epochs in the college history, but simply came spontaneously, in response perhaps to the restless spirits of a hand- ful of .Vmerican college boys of half a century ago, whose blood ran red in their veins and who saw in the new game healthy exercise and a diversion more exciting tlian the other mild sports of their day. Mien the game was first played by the boys on the hill is uncertain. There are no official records and the memories of the few alumni of those days can furnish only meagre data. From this data it is possible to trace the beginning of the national game back to the year i860. Officially, however, baseball was not played bv Bucknell until twenty-fi -e years later, so by appropriate coincident the college this spring reaches simultaneously its golden anni ersary of the beginning of baseball and its silver anni -ersary of the game as an inter-collegiate sport. Records of the very early games of ball of fifty years ago are e.xtinct. .V few traditions of those games have nevertheless filtered down through the years and have given to us interesting incidents of the game which was ulti- mately to rout the then all-absorbing college sports of tennis and croquet. Baseball a ' t this time was being played in other parts of the country and was adopted by the students of the Lewisburg college as a matter of course. With a style of play radically different from the present day, the game was almost an endurance test in running. Slow underhand pitching, a small hard ball, and a long, slender bat made conditions almost ideal for home-rtms and three- baggers. Scores of half a century ago ran up into startling figures. In fact the ])layers early realized that something must be done to cut down the run- ning and before swift pitching came into vogue, it was the custom to use a dead ball, the more lively one having been too productive of runs. To fur- ther curtail the heavy hitting the bats were made of soft wood, willow or spruce, and what little elasticity they had was effectually destroyed by a twine wrapping which was wound from one end of the handle to the other. The modern equipment of padded gloves, masks, spiked shoes, and the like, was then unknown. lat few games the college boys may have indulged in in the early 6o ' s , were confined to the town or at most to short trips to nearby illages. The absence of expert players, and at best only a small student tody to draw from, made combinations between the college and town players very common. Even years afterwards it frequently happened that when the game was slack either in the town or on the hill , the town an.d the gown would combine forces in order to have a strong enough team to meet their rivals. The first college 190 team to win a reputation was the Olympians — a nine which flourished in the late ' ■6o ' s and early 70 ' s . A most interesting article by Dr. Bartol, for five years captain of the Olympians, follows later. After the brilliant record established for the college by the Olympians, baseball gradually faded from the screen of college activities, sometimes flash- ing up and then flickering out again but never reaching its former bright- ness. Of the few games that were played intermittently from the time of the disbandment of the famous Olympians up to the early 8o ' s , none seems to have been important enough to ha -e been recorderl. A revival of interest came in 18S2, when the Mirror , a college publication, spoke thus — editori- ally : We congratulate the students upon the awakened interest in baseball which comes with the opening of the season. The first and second nines have been fully reorganized and are manifesting such zeal in their plays as speaks well for the efiiciency with which they will meet their antagonists when called upon to vindicate their Alma Mater in this direction. This is the spirit wanted at Lewisburg — more life, more of a spirit to stand well in comparison with other institutiims of a similar scope. In 1883 the sport had revived sufficiently for the college again to boast of a nine. The game was then played in the fall of the year as well as in the spring, and according to the Mirror the College nine met a club chosen from town on the Union County Fair Grounds, October 6. The score stood thr ee to nine in favor of the College . One of the most important .events of that year was the receipt of a challenge from State College for a game to be played at State in November. There is no record of the challenge being- accepted and it is very probable that the game was never played. With 18S4 came the curved ball and with it another slump in the sport locally. An editorial in the college paper has this to say about conditions : The Athletic Association as an organization, seems to Ije defunct. Some of the old players have joined the Lewisbtirg Baseball Club and under its ban- ner are winning renown. Instead of organizing a college nine and practicing until proficiency is attained, the players are willing to allow such an unde- sirable state of affairs to continue. Athletic sports are at a low ebb among us, baseball seeming to be the only ga me attracting much attention. And if our information is correct, it is about the only game claiming much atten- tion among the students generally. Our impression of baseball, as it is now played, is that it is not much of a game. Formerly the game was to pitch balls that could be hit, giving the fielders some exercise in running and catch- ing. Now the game seems to be to secure a ' curve pitcher ' whose ball cannot be hit. One of the editors of the college paper about this time advocated, with the utmost sincerity, the substitution of lawn tennis for baseball. 191 Baseball was reviving rapidly, however, even in spite of the short, trite sentence, A poor baseball club , which appeared among the college locals in the issue of the Mirror of May, 1885. The writer may have Ijeen a little hasty in his judgment for in the same paper a montii later was recorded a very gratifying ictory over the Muncy team by a score of 24 to 11. The first recorded inter-collegiate relations began in 1886 when Buck- nell joined the Inter-collegiate League of Eastern Pennsylvania with Frank- lin and Marshall, Dickinson, and Gettysburg. This league was liroken up b) the withdrawal of Franklin and Marshall, l)ut games were played inde- pendently between several of the colleges. The first games with State Col- lege were played in that year when the local nine was twice defeated, on May 12 at State, by a score of lO-o, and on June 5, on the home grounds, by a score of 14 to 7. Captain J. S. Braker, now pastor of a church at Lynn, Massachusetts, led the team in that year and succeeded in coming out with at least one victory, defeating Pennsylvania College at Gettysburg on May 29, by a score of ii-io. The team consisted of Braker. captain and shortstop; Hulley, catcher and assistant captain ; Little, first base ; Shipman, second base ; Keiser, third base ; Johnson, left field ; A-Tusser, center field ; and Da is, right field. Conditions were unsettled in 1887 and no important games are recorded. This was tlie year preceding the changing of the name of the University of Lewisburg to that of the University of Bucknell. Financial conditions became better under tlie new regime, standard uniforms, a bit gaudy to be sure, were adopted and the team did credit to its new name and new uniforms by defeat- ing Williamsport, Sunbury, and Danville. It also revenged itself upon State College by trouncing the Blue and White nine by a score of 9-6. State and Bucknell split even the following year, each taking a game, and in 1890 State won, 5-2. Dr. Harvey F. Smith, at present of Harrisburg, was elected captain in 1 89 1 and led the ' varsity nine for three seasons. A writer in the Mirror very tritely gives expression of the conditions at this time in a sentence, which reads, Though in baseball we are not as strong as could be desired, yet the team has made a good deal of progress . By the year ' 96, this progress had reached such proportions as to enable Bucknell to win the majority of the games on its schedule. One game lost to State and defeats by Milton, Lafayette, and Bloomsburg, comprised the rather low percentage of reverses out of a schedule of thirteen games in ' 97. With the season of ' 99 came Christy Matthewson. The lad from Fac- toryville was then in the making, as it were, for his future brilliant career as 192 the mightiest of big league twiiiers. His really brilliant work while in col- lege, however, was in football even more than in baseball. He played full back on the ' varsity for two seasons and his splendid drop kicking figured largely in the victories of those years, two of which were against State. Christy played ball at Bucknell only one season as he was gathered in in the second year by a team of the Southern League. The team split even with State that season, won two games from Franklin and Marshall, defeated the Indians, and in all finished out with nine victories out of fourteen games played. It was by fitting coincident that the mighty twirler of the New York Nationals returned to college to pitch for the Alumni team at Commencement last spring — the eleventh anniversary of his first appearance on the local firing line. Three seasons later, in 02, the same year in which the famous Bucknell football eleven held the University of Pennsylvania to a score of 6-5, played Yale, and won from the Indians, the most notable victories of the diamond were against Lehigh, Dickinson, the Indians, and Manhattan, the latter hav- ing won from Eli ' s picked nine. Such men as Jaekel, Dippy Smith, George Cockill, and Jimmy Grimminger led the team during the next five years. The resumption of athletic relations with State came in 1908 and with it awakened interest in baseball. Enthusiasm reached fever heat when Buck- nell shut out the Blue and White team on the home grounds under the lead- ership of Mickey Sheehan. Only one game was played with State that year. In 1909, after State had won out in an eleven-inning game on the home grounds, Bucknell journeyed to the camp of their rivals. With the best men of each college pitted against each other, the Orange and Blue blanked the State nine before the largest crowd of the Co mmencement season, and trailed the White and Blue in the dust of its own diamond. Since 1896, Bucknell and State have won four games each in baseball. Among the other colleges, Bucknell has won seven out of ten games from the Indians, has scored ten victories against Dickinson, has won nine games from Gettysburg, has defeated Franklin and Marshall in six games, and has won three out of four games from the Navy. Other opponents of worthy note against whom the team has been victorious are Cornell, Lafayette, Seton Hall, Williamsport, Western L niversity of Pittsburg, Lehigh and Villa Nova. 193 Dust From Old Diamonds CHE LATE GEORGE O. BARCLAY, star football and baseball player, played witb Boston and St. Louis National League teams. He was a wonderful fielder, one of the fastest in the big leagues. He was a practicing dentist in Philadelphia at the time of his death about a Dr. Harvey Smith, now practicing in Harrisburg, was one of the best all round athletes ' Bucknell ever produced. After leaving college he played third base for the Washington National League team and made good as a batter and fielder. His brother Paul was also a fast football, baseball and basket- ball pla er. and after completing his college course he played with teams in O. P. and New York State League. The late James Sebring played right field for Bucknell before playing with Pittsburg, Chicago, and Brooklyn in the National League. Sebring died in the W ' illiamsport Hospital after a short illness. Bucky Veil pitched two seasons for Pittslnirg after being the mainstay in the box for Bucknell for several years. Nattress, playing short for Buffalo, was a former Orange and Blue all round athlete. Leach, another pitcher from Bucknell, received a trial by the Boston Americans, but did not stay long owing to ill health. Shorten, who will play with Altoona this year, is a former Bucknell twirler. Weidensaul, playing with Toronto, was captain of two winning Bucknell baseball teams. He led the nine on which Christy Matthewson pitched. Christy Matthewson, now the greatest pitcher in the big leagues, was not only a star baseball plaj er while in college, but was also the best drop kicker among the college ele ens and was center on one of Bucknell ' s best basket- ball teams. Parsons, who pitched for Bucknell three years ago, will receive his first trial in the National League this season with New York. McCormick, another all round athlete who made good playing baseball, is now connected with the Penna. Steel Company in Chicago. Mac was one of the leading batters of the New York Nationals last season, but he was ne er very fond of professional ball. Xockill. all round star, is now playing with Montreal ni the Eastern League and is said to be ripe lor faster com]iany. Blair, the New York American catcher, played in the out-field while at Bucknell. Doolan, last year ' s captain of the Philadelphia Nationals, played shortstop and first base while here in college. He was also a good football player. 194 Bucknell ' s Baseball Record ' CHRISTY MATTHEWSON Season 1886 1887 1888 1889 1890 1891 1892 1893 1894 1895 1896 1897 1898 1899 1900 1901 1902 1903 1904 1905 1906 1907 1908 1909 1910 Captain Won J.

Bartol, A. M., Ph. D., Captain and Shortstop of one of Bucknell ' s Early Championship Nines BARTOL, 72 XN September, 1867, the Bucknell ' Varsity met with a defeat that quite chsorganized the team. It was the opening game of the season. The ' Varsity had for its opponents only the scrubs , but the scrubs won with ridiculous ease. It chanced that a bunch of Freshmen who were ball players, but who were practically unknown quantities to the local diamond, got on the scrub team. They pounded the ball all over the lot and won easily. Six of these Freshmen — Humpstone, Hickman, Bogert, Bartol, Warr, and Grier — were soon advanced to the ' Varsity. They stuck together during their entire college course and the ' Varsity kept playing such ball that never a game was lost. Thus originated the famous ball teams of ' 67-71. Although the team was thus successful, it received little encouragement from the college faculty. Dr. Charles S. James, Professor of Mathematics, was the only college olficer ever seen on the grounds. Baseball had then to meet and overcome some prejudice and at times real difficulties. One good lady was heard to remark reverently that she believed the good Lord was sending such awful thunder storms upon us because those wicked ball games were allowed upon the campus . It chanced that some little damage had lieen caused by the storms referred to. In the September game mentioned above there was standing in the middle of centre field a cluster of three small pines. Several members of the ' Varsity debated for some days if it would not be better to ask permission to remove these obstructions to the game. It was finally decided that it would be better to say nothing but just to have those pines disappear on some suitable night. The pines disappeared. 196 m Martin Bell, President Judge of the Blair County Court, was then a star fielder on the ' Varsity nine. Does he remember the incident? All games of ball must be played on tlie local diamond was the college dictum. The boys wanted very much to play a game at Milton, five miles away. It was deemed not advisable to try for permission for a game so far from home. Instead a combination consisting of eight ' Varsity men and one Lewisburg town player was formed, and under tjie name of The Indejiendents , of Lewisburg, the game was successfully pulled off. Dr. Humpstone, who twenty years later was offered the Presidency of the Uni- versity, distinguislied limiself in that game. A real difficulty met in those days was tlie lack of time for practice. The college rules required recitation or study practically all the forenoon. The rule for afternoon was study and recitation from two o ' clock till five. These rules were strictly enforced. A Freshman, Mr. Frank M. Higgins, was caught once playing croquet behind the college at three o ' clock in the afternoon. He was promptly censured for breaking study hour. President Loomis passed this censure upon him in a scathing reprimand given in chapel before the whole college. We dared not play ball save at noon before two o ' clock and in the evening after five o ' clock. The team received little financial aid. The bats were the private property of the individual players. The balls were bought when needed, members of the team chipping in to pay for them. With shovel and rake the toys made their own diamond. The shoes and suits were very much like those of to-day and were paid for by contributing friends. Mr. T. F. Russell, a prominent town merchant, was a generous contributor. There were no gate receipts and the visiting teams were generally entertained at the private tables of the local players. Although not allowed to play games away from home in term time , during vacation occasional trips were made. The greatest trip of those days was one to Harrisburg. That was a famous victory — score, 43-39. It en- thused our young lad} ' friends to gi e the ' Varsity a banquet at the home of Miss Edith Beaver on Market street. Mrs. George Smedley Matlack will no doubt recall the banquet for Smedley had played a star game at Har- risburg. At home the ' Varsity played no intercollegiate game, but met many strong teams from neighboring towns. Some of the scores for the season of ' 71 follow : ' Varsity, 44; Danville, 18. ' Varsity, 38; Milton, 25. ' Varsity, 51; Lewisburg, 9. ' Varsity, 23; Harrisburg, 22. HUMPSTONE ]97 To the i)la -ers of to-day tliese scores seem BBSfe high, hut they were not high for the clays of ■ HUE k ' 71. Many things united to make the scores M BBI ' 11 ' ' ' I ' S ' ' ' figiire : First, the pitching was k .-E Wf iA li ' ' y weak, a simple, straight, underhand f pitch, not a throw ; second, the batting was r truly great for because of the w eak pitching the batter used a longer and heavier bat than is x2 3B BI to-dav: third, the hall was just a little smaller and harder perhaps than the one now used, hence it carried faster and farther, ( Mrs. Cabin A. Hare has still in her possession a ball that was used in a game on the campus, in 1872) ; fourth, the rules on balls and strikes were more fax ' orable to the batter than they GRIER, 71 a ' ' e to-day. From such causes rather than from poor fielding came those large scores. Those were the days of three-baggers and home runs. Tlie numerous and heavy hits, faced with ungloved hands, compelled ner -y and skillful fielding. Under the old time rules on pitching and on balls and strikes, our best third baseman of to-day could not hold the run getting in greater check than did Colonel Freeman Teed in the days of ' 71 when he played third base on the ' Varsity.

James S. Broker of Lynn, Mass., Captain of the College Team in ' 86 BRAKER, ' S played in tlie middle eighties of the la t century, baseball differed little as to general form from the present day. It was during that period that the team of Bucknell (then Lewisburg) University entered into intcr-coUegiate relationship. It was a large and definite advance over former years and marked the beginning of the present wider interests. The support of the university then was not so enthusiastic as in these days. Financial backing was individual, each player assuming personal obligation when making a trip. There were included m the inter-collegiate circuit, Gettysburg, Dickinson, State College, and Bucknell. All train- ing was unsystematic until Judge McClure entered into the athletic life of the institu- tion and gave us the advantage of his e. iperience and enthusiasm. Professors Bartol . and Rockwood were invaluable aids at this period in the formation and fostering of the inter-collegiate alliance — the former having taken an active interest in the sport while at college, the latter always having a warm side for the baseball nine and never letting an opportunity pass when he could be of assistance to the boys . Bare hands and kid gloves were the simp le means for taking in hot liners that came our way. The spirit of the men was hearty, conscientious anil harmonious. We lived in those days when an athletic education was not so important in the college curriculum as it is to-day. Those were pioneer days, indeed. On one occasion we had a game with Gettysburg. On Friday midnight we left Lewisburg, traveling as college men usually do, in bunches , we owned the car in which we journeyed and made the early morning hours hideous with our clamor. We arrived at Gettysburg soon after daybreak and were ready to start the game by eleven o ' clock. Of course the result was a foregone conclusion. We started on our homeward journey ready to take up the class room duties on Monday. That trip recalls to my mind the return game which the Gettysburg boys played on our home grounds. The game ran into eleven innings, as I recall it, and the score stood 2-3 in our favor with the visitors at the bat. Three men were on the bases with none out. The sluggers of the Gettysburg nine were up , we were doing ragged work, the hill was disloyal. Jack Halfpenny was tossing the ball for us; By Dad Hulley was taking in everything that came his way Two strikes had been called, the third was a fan . Hulley dropped the ball; the batter, thinking he had been caught out did not run at first, the home plate was touched, the ball relayed to first and second and tlien. as a rub in , to third, and the game was ours with four men out. The crowd swarmed onto the diamond, the cajjtain was lifted onto the shoulders of the wildly joyful students. Baseball stock immediately, steadily and permanently rose in the college life and judging from the game wdiich I witnessed at the 1909 Commence- ment, it has become a fi: ture in the life of our beloved Bucknell.

BRAKER. 199 I n w CO ; m ■ H Wll 200 NORTHROP Manager - Assistant Manager Captain O ' Leary Northrop Sprout SOPER - Hendersox loveland MtTNK Ci.ark - Manning - Daggett Druckenmiller Carpenter kunselman Lister - OFFICERS - M.

Ere the morning dews are falling, I must answer to their call ; O ' er field, o ' er hollow, I hear, I follow. In the silence and the beauty, and the vastness of it all. Where the mists are upward breaking, Over summits far away. Where the forest birds are waking, Where the moving shadows play; Where fern leaves glisten, I wait, I listen. In the music, and the fragrance, and the glory of the day. Oh, the hills are calling, calling. When the sinking shadows fall. When the dews of night are falling, In the afterglow they call. While night shades darken, Oh, hills, I hearken, In the all-enfolding stillness and the darkness over all. 234 Beefing It to Philly OAWN was already beginning to show in misty outline the broken stretches of hills that ran parallel to the railroad when the Chicago Cold Storage Limited pulled out of Reading and swung onto the main line for the last lap of its regular run from Chicago to Philadelphia. The big locomotive choked and tugged laboriously as it got under way for the final spurt, but once the long train had gathered momentum the cumbrous- ness of the start was forgotten in the exhilaration of speed. In the growing dawn the headlight of the locomotive paled and no longer threw a glint on the steel rails that now stretched out before it like threads of dull silver. Behind the engine the loaded cars rocked and rumbled. The only thing astir along the long line of cars was a lone brakeman whose swing- ing lantern revealed him making his unsteady way towards the caboose at the rear of the train where were his companions and warmth. For it was October and the bleak morning air sent a quiver through one ' s bones. An hour later, when the train was well beyond the limits of Reading and the sun. now reddening the horizon, touched up alternate blotches of yellow and red along the sides of the speeding freight cars, a small trap door near the end of one of the cars was raised cautiously. First the lid rose barely two or three inches, then it was lifted higher and a moment later was flung wide open. At the same instant a young fellow clambered out of the hole un- covered by the lid, paused a minute to stretch in the fresh morning air and to brush a cinder or two from his eyes, and then ran recklessly along the tops of the swaying cars. He wore a faded sweater and corduroy trousers topped off with a gay-banded slouch hat. At first glance one might have taken him for a tramp, but closer inspection would have revealed a mere youth with a certain trace of refinement in his face. Now and then he paused to kick on the lids of the ice boxes or to call out something that was indistinguishable amid the noise of the train. As he ran on the cars, which an hour before had seemed to be lifeless, became suddenly astir. Lids popped up all along the train and other youths in sweaters and corduroys climbed to the tops of the cars, stretched themselves and shouted loudly at each other. Back in the caboose an old brakeman heard the voices and looking out along the line of cars ahead of him, smiled. 235 Well, Jim, there ' s quite a hunch of ' em this time , he exclaimed to an- other brakeman near him. Yep, I should say that there was atout a couple of dozen of ' em , an- swered the other, lighting up his pipe. Must have got on at West Milton last night when we stopped for water , continued the older man. They ' re from Bucknell, I guess. Maybe they ' re goin ' to play football at Philly to-morrow, for the boys ' most always make this trip when they have a game down here in the fall. They ' ve been doin ' it fer years and we old fellows on the road begin to expect ' em about this time of the year . They ' re not a bad lot if you treat ' em right. Why, I get enough cigars and tobacco to last me a month after one of these trips. The boys think it ' s fun stealin ' rides and we get the smokin ' for lettin ' ' em alone. It does seem kind of foolish, though, for ' em to take risks like this. I ' ll bet any one of ' em could get the money from home to ride to Philly on the cushions. But no siree, they ' d rather take the discomforts and the chance of bein ' pinched by the bulls than ride respectable like ; it ' s always the way with them college fellers to do things just the opposite from ordinary folks . While this con -ersation was going on in the caboose, the boys squatted down in groups on the tops of the cars and, tiu ning their backs to the engine and the clouds of cinders which were continually raining down upon them, began to recount their experiences of the trip, the first half of which was now so near an end. The brakeman ' s guess had been nearly correct. There were twenty-one instead of a couple of dozen . The young fellow who had been the first to climb from his hiding place, counted his companions over twice. He looked puzzled. Twenty-two had started out together from the Hill . Someone was missing. Two cars back of the one on which the other twenty-one were sitting, Fat I ' linker, curled up tightly in the narrow confines of a dry ice box, slept on peacefully amid the noise and rattle of the train. He had started out with the others to lieef it to Philly , but being only a Freshman had not paused to consider the danger nor weigh the difficulties of the journey. He had prowled around the car yards with the others, had waited until he saw 236 the familiar big headlight of the Beef , and when the train stopped, had swung aboard. Maybe his size made the rest rather wary about offering him their companionship. At any rate, Fat Hfted alone the lid of the first ice box he came to, pulled out the plug and, with the aid of the short chain used to hold the plug in place, dropped down into the darkness. He found him- self in a metal chamber with flat sides in which he could easily stand erect, but which was so short and narrow as to cramp him when he sat down. It was fortunate for him that he was the only occupant of the box for no one else could have possibly crowded in with him. He finally managed to squirm into a sitting position and by the time he had made himself as comfortable as possible and had lighted one of the several candles which he carried in his pocket, the train started. He soon found that it was nothing like riding in a passenger coach. There were no springs on the freight cars, at least he was sure there weren ' t after he had been bounced about for an hour and flung around in his little metal prison by the constant jolting of the cars. It was a new experience to him, however, and he liked it. The only objection that Fat had was that it was rather lonely without someone to talk to. Thru the air holes cut in the metal sides of the box he could see the flickering of a candle at the other end of the car where two other fellows were whiling away the time at a game of cards. He wondered how they both had got in one box and he learned from them later that they had somehow wrapped their legs around each other and both sat down at once. Once or twice he shouted over to them to inquire where the train was or the time of night, but the cars made too much noise to permit lengthy conver- sations. After what he thought must be an hour, Fat felt the train slowing up. He concluded that they were at Shamokin and remembering the warnings to look out for the coal and iron police, he snuffed his candle and kept quiet. The train stopped and soon afterwards he heard voices outside. Thoughts of bulls and a night in the city jail made Fat squeeze closer into the bottom of his box as he heard someone clamber to the top of the car. His breath stopped altogether when the lock of the lid over his head rattled. Anybody in there ? called a gruff voice from above. 237 Fat ' s heart stopped beating. He did not answer. 1 ' hen there was a moment ' s silence and during the space of a few sec- onds all kinds of thoughts flashed through the Freshman ' s panic-stricken brain. The stories of being chased by the bulls that some of the fellows who had made the trip before had told, with even the thrilling details of be- ing shot at, he now recalled very vividly. The worst of it was this would be no chase. He was cornered. He couldn ' t run if he wanted to. It would be a terrible disgrace to be arrested. The fellows would laugh. But what would the folks at home say? What would the minis The lid was slammed back and a pair of legs came dangling down through the opening above. More mindful of the present than the future and more afraid of being kicked than arrested, Fat broke his silence. He remembered that the fellows had promised to stick together in case of emergency. Here was his only chance. H-e-1-l-p-p-p-, h-e-1-l-p-p-p ! he yelled. The dangling legs stopped suddenly just above his head. Their owner gave a startled grunt. What the h he grunted. Why in the d 1 didn ' t you tell me you were down there ? and the intruder nimbly pulled himself out of the box again and slammed down the lid. A few minutes later Fat heard his shoes scraping on the metal of the vacant box next to him. A hobo , he thought with a sigh of relief. He was not left long in doubt. Say, pard, did I scare yer ? called his new neighbor after he had once become comfortablv settled in the bottom of the next box. Naw , replied Fat, with an opera bouffe attempt at toughness, only jokin ' . Where yer goin ' ? the other continued. i To Philly . Fer Old Home Week ? Yep! Do you live there ? 2.38 T was Naw, I ' m just riiiinin ' over to see tlie folks fer a while and take in the doins ' next week. I ' ve bee n rammin ' around for a bit of two months up here in the coal regions but the work in the mines don ' t just suit me delicate constitution and I ' ve decided to shift to de South fer me health . The conversation ran along for some time until Fat dozed off into a restless sleep, disturbed frequently by the violent jolting of the cars as the train sped around curves or down mountain grades. Once he was awakened by some one hammering at the wheels of the cars and his neighbor called over to him that they were at Tamaqua. Another time he got up to stretch and looked out under Ihe lid of the ice box. An extra engine was on behind and the reflection from the fire-box gave him enough of a glimpse of the moun- tains and steep hills to convince him that they were still in the coal regions. He looked out again when they passed through the brightly lighted passenger station at Reading. After that he did not awaken again until he heard some- one called his name and looked up into a flood of light which came stream- ing down from the top of the ice box. Hurry, Fat , exclaimed a voice which he at once recognized as Red ' s. We ' re nearly in Philly and we ' ve got to get out of this if we don ' t want to get pinched . Red had remembered that Fat had called to him during the night and after counting noses and finding him missing, he had gone back in search of him and had found him asleep. Fie helped Fat crawl out of the hole and then the two joined the rest of the group, by whom the new arrival was greeted with a volley of good-natured taunts. Get stuck. Fat ? came in chorus. This isn ' t a pork train . How ' d you scjueeze it, Freshie ? Too busily interested in the sights about him, Fat let the taunts pass with- out retort. They were now right in the midst of civilization. A river ran off to their left and along its banks were numerous factories and foundries whose chimneys were belching forth great volumes of smoke, signalling the start of the day ' s work. 239 The cars rumbled through many pretty httle suburban towns where people were already astir and stood in groups at the railroad stations awaiting their morning trains to take them to the city. They gazed curiously at the bovs who aved to them from the tops of the speeding cars. Once the train pulled up on a side track to let an express pass and at the warning of a friend- ly brakeman, the boys ducked back into the boxes to a -oid the watchful eyes of the yard police. They were out again as soon as the train started and rolled on into Philadelphia amazing the village folk along the wav by their college yells and songs. The sun was well up when the Cold Storage Limited crossed the Schuvl- kill River and slowed down on the other side. It had scarcely come to a standstill when Red and Fat and the twenty-one others tumbled over the sides of the cars and raced across the tracks to a roadway. They found them- selves in Fairmount Park and the fashionable brown-stone fronts in the dis- tance reminded them for the first time of their inharmonious attire for the city. Looking for work ? inquired a park guard, but the boys were too aston- ished and too much in a hurry to answer. They passed on through the park until they came to tlie trolley tracks and then boarded the first car that came along. It was a motley array of youths that trudged gayly along Market street a half hour later when the freight riders made their way to Broad Street Sta- tion to secure their s it cases which had been checked down from Lewisburg. A quick change of clothes in a nearby hotel, a lunch, and they were off for Franklin Field for the all important game of the afternoon. Everywhere orange and blue flags and bunting floated from the buildings and twenty- two enthusiastic Bucknell rooters, most of whom had never been to Phila- delphia before and who knew little and cared less for civic colors and Found- ers ' Week festivities, swelled with pride for their alma mater. Red was filled with the spirit of it, and as he swung from the car with the rest in the luisiness section of the city where the civic colors were draped the thickest, he shouted, Say, fellows, let ' s give a Bucknell-el-el ! 240 The Alumnus ' s Reminiscence XREME.MBER, I remember, The halls of learning vast. The campus with its calm repose, When study Iiours were past ; The hours tliat were gladly given To conning lessons o ' er. While fun crept in and mellowed days Such as I li e no more. I remember. I remember, The bluetts on the green. The buttercups whose jaunty smile Flickered with golden sheen ; The proud old trees with statelv nod. That guarded slope and plain, And thru the leaves waved shadows dow n- Those old guards still remain. I remember, I remember, The brook with restless fret ; It chattered on of busy lives That I dreamed not of yet ; But now within the stir of life To this fond thought I hold, That life is beauty, as it was In student davs of old. 241 The Wail of the Would-Be Wise Woman XHAI) planned my long vacation, In a most ambitious streak, I would read each day some Browning, And some Ibsen twice a week. And some classic Latin reading- For a pastime I would take, But I find I ' m not succeeding. While I ha e to sweep and bake. Self-improvement in vacatidu? How to work it I don ' t know, While mv eyes are on the cook-book And my hands are in the dough. Mien I would be intellectual, All I try is ineffectual. And mv inspiration weakens in a weary wail of woe. All I could not do in college, For the want of leisure hours, I had planned to do this summer, In my garden with the flowers. But I find the beds are weedy, Antl the grass is rough and tall. And the flowers are growing seedy. And the leaves begin to fall. When I would enjoy their beauty. They recall me to my duty. With the hoe and rake and sickle which I do not like at all. Most aesthetic are my senses. Most appreciative my ears. For the poetry of nature. And the music of the spheres. But my parlor must be dusted, I must let my music lie, 242 While I make a waltz in biscuits, Or a sym])honv in pie. Vhe I would be reading Shelley, 1 must mind my boiling jelly. Or hang some bits of linen in the sun to bleach and dry. Oh, I ' vs tried to be a wonder, ' ith the learning I ' d attain. But my last attempt went under. And I ' ll ne -er try again. I must bid farewell to Shakespeare, Byron, Ruskin, Dryden, Moore, Nevermore I ' ll read my Goethe, And for Poe it ' s Xtvermore . How can I pursue my learning, While my roast of beef is jjurning While the ice man ' s in the alley and an agent ' s at the door ? ' ' lA ' A Merely Philosophy Higher education is regarded I)y some people as simply wrapping up one ' s talents in the napkin of a four-years ' college course. If the man with the one talent had only invested it in a college course he might at least have gotten a joh tutoring in the family of his five-talented fellow countryman. o o o The college life may seem a waste of time to many people, but it at least holds the fascination for the student of testing out the metal of his natural talents in the crucible of theory and making an assay of their current alue in the future world of action. A bonfire is the safety valve w hich gives harmless vent to pent-up col- lege enthusiasm, raised to its highest pressure by the heat of victory, and which might otherwise explode in a more dangerous manner. If Dan Cupid were a Rockefeller he would never endow co-educational institutions. ' Too many men go to their work like the galley slave to his rowers ' bench when thev might be infinitely more happy and more successful if they looked upon their sphere of action as does the college oarsman, who trains tirelessly to win a place in the crew, and whose greatest pleasure is in pulling the hardest strokes. College bred may be a four years ' loaf, Init it usually has the good fea- ture of being pretty well iiaked. 244 The Senior ' s Farewell LIXG, klang, hear it ring, its echoes swing, 0 -er the lii Chng, chng. Ding, ding, Thru the clear fresh autumn air, PeaHng sweetly everywhere. Loiter, loiter, late and slow Thru the chapel aisles we go; There comes Prex — Dear old Prex. Morning- chapel cjuickly o ' er. Daily duties come once more. On the wing of h.igh ideal. Forgetting present woe or weal, Now we soar. Ages o ' er, See in life a unity. See in man a family. Now it seems that all life grows, ' hile the day too quickly goes ; As we wonder, Read and ponder, Goes the hright sun slowly under. Leaves a trail of glowing wonder. Tinted clouds now hover by. In the arches of the sky. O ' er the hill, Lying still, Showing purest autumn hues. Palest pinks and bluest blues. 245 All too soon we say farewell To Thee, to Thee, our dear Bucknell : . llo v me tears. Thru the years. No sweeter word for me will dwell In all the world than this — Bucknell. o o o Saith the Preacher To the Senior. Art thou aught else but place, degree, and form, creating awe and fear in other men ? To the Junior, Yet woe to thee if once thou yield unto the act of doing naught ! To the Sophomore, Much learning doth make thee mad . To the Freshman, Ye are green wcx d, see ye warp not . o o o A Little Light Only a light from a lantern shone On the beach of a billowy lake. And yet by its gleam a tempest-tossed ship It ' s way to the shore did make. So a kind word or smile from a life of Ime On a selfish sea of greed. May a beacon light prove to a downcast soul- An adecjuate help iri need. 246 --Mfe ' Facts and Frivolities About the Faculty Spare time spent at railroad stations waiting for trains, which most people idle away, is turned to good account by Dr. Harris, who invariably carries small pocket editions of standard works with him while traveling, and fills in the idle moments with solid reading. In this way he has covered an exhaus- tive edition on the Life of Lincoln and has supplemented to a considerable degree his studies in biography and philosophy. He rarely reads while on the train. o o o Professors Bartol and Martin were at one time managers of the Herald , the first college publication issued by this Institution. The former, altho one of the oldest members of the faculty, is still a clever tennis player and he can serve and return a ball with greater swiftness and dexterity than many of the younger players. Billv Martin was at one time a temperance ex- horter. o o o Bally has a gerundive smile which he wears only in the class room. o o a Included in the list of early L ' Agenda editors are Professor Ephraim M.

Joseph Meixwell Wolfe, Registrar, was assistant editor of the ' 89 L ' Agend. . a o o Pop Perrine wears his cuff-links inside out. Dr. Rockwood, Dean of the University, was catcher on the Brown Uni- versity team in his college days. He is one of the most interested spectators of the contests on the local diamond. Lindy won the high dive in the indoor meet held in the gymnasium in 1895. o o o The late Dr. Groff conducted a summer school of science back in the 8o ' s and he and a number of students spent one summer ' s vacation in walk- ing from Lewisburg to Niagara Falls. Some of the party ascended Mt. Washington while on the walking trip. 247 ' ■Judas tried the laitli euro for near-siglitedness during his student days at Bucknell. The experiment failed. o o o W ' liile traveling in Greece in 1887-88, Jakey was nearly arrested as a suspicious character, merely because he was an American. 000 Ten of the ISucknell track records were smashed in one season — 1893 — by Bromley Smith, instructor in oratory and rhetoric, and father of local track athletics. 000 Simp was sergeant of the college band during the days when it flour- ished under the directorship of the late Dr. Aviragnet. 000 Prof. Drum is the champion checker player of the Unixersity Club. 000 Billy Owens has been the local authorized government weather observer for nearly twenty years.

Slie sat in her room and looked disconsolately out across the campus. Cicero de Sen. lay on the Hoor beside her. She was homesick, and lonesome, and Iiored. O dear ! she sighed, I wish something- would happen ! Hark ! What was that ? A terrible, long-drawn, blood-emailing cry, rising higher and higher and louder and louder — Oh! Oh! ! Oh! ! ! — and then weaker, but with all the pathos of mortal agony in the sound, Come over! Come over! Come o -er! The voice died away — for at that moment the Senior in elocution ceased from her -oice culture and began to study French — but the awful moans con- tinued. What could it mean ? thought the Freshman. Some one was hurt, perhaps dying . Without waiting to meditate further, she dashed down the stairs three steps at a leap. Through the hall she ran, across the campus and into New Building. Once she stopped to lisien, Yes, she could still hear the noise and it was coming from the basement . Again she plunged down the stairs and breathless and disheveled, burst into one of the class rooms. Oh. what is it? Are you hurt? Shall I go for the doc-t . She stopped abruptly. The vocal teacher smiled a calmly superior smile and then gently closed the door. In just a moment. Miss Smith, Mr. Pangburn is not quite through with his lesson .

Clarence Hill stopped and was gazing boldly at a fair Semite as she descended the college steps. I ' ll bet my Cicero trot be continued rapturously, that old f ' aris didn ' t carry off a more charming ])rize than sjie. And, l)v the entilati()n in the Baptist Church! I swear I ' ll get next before long, even if I am a Freshman ! It was not long before Clarence learned his Idol to be Miss E. Post and soon he waj carrying on a rather sentimental chat through the channels of correspondence. Just before the Christmas holidays he wrote a tender epistle expressing his sorrow that he was .going away. The holidays were scarcely o -er when, the Freshmen assembled at the banc|uet in Harrisburg. Here Clarence acted as toastmaster. After speeches had been gi en and jokes cracked, the toastmaster announced a toast on The Freshman and the Girl . The speaker arose and after an apparent display of diffidence began. Fellow classmates and honored guests: Vhat I have to say will proye that I ' reshmen are not quite so bashful as the comj lexion of the button on their caps would indicate. , nd since we are here with one accord — to dis- seminate the spirit of good comradeship — I am sure that mv remarks will solicit no offence. A few days before the end of last term while I was walking down L ' ni- -ersity . enue, I was attracted by a bit of paper which the wind blew across the pa -ement at my feet. I picked it up and finding that it was an unsealed note, I read it and immediately decided to perserxe it for this festi e occa- sion. The note reads as follows : My Dear Miss Post — As I am busy studying my Latin for the Exam, which comes ofif to-morrow — you know that ' Bally ' s exams are no suits — I write simply these few lines to tell you how extremely sorry I am that the holidays are here and I must leave Lewisburg for nearly three weeks. Of course I ha -e m - home, but . Ne ertheless I shall haye the pleasure of lookino- forward to my return — and yours, too — for altho circumstances for- bid me from speaking with you and e en from smiling (confound the rules!) it is always an ins])iration to behold }-our cheerful countenance. Trusting then that you will have a most Merry Christmas, I am, Your Fresliman friend, Clarence Hill All eyes were turned towards Clarence. Amid the storm of applause could be heard the cries of Ray, Hill ! Who said Freshmen are green ? Despite this humiliation. Clarence continued to write letters after the ban- quet as before. .Always when he passed Miss Post he felt a thrill, for altho she never recognized him he was certain it was only to keep him from the vengeance of the Sophomores. With Washington ' s Birthday came the beginning of the Freshman emancipation. This advent was marked bv a social gi en in the Baptist Church and Clarence, wlio was a member of the congregation, duly sent his Idol an invitation to attend. His rapture knew no bounds when he received an acceptance and a note to call ac the home of the fair one at No. 2 Thir- teenth street, and spend the afternoon with her before starting for the recep- tion. This at first puzzled Hill. He had simply been addressing his notes to Miss Estelle Post, Lewisburg, Pa., but he thought that she was staying at the Sem as he had often seen her turn in there with other girls. Well , he mused, she must be a town girl . W ' hen the afternoon of Washington ' s Birthday had at last arrived, Clar- ence, after spending more time than usual over his toilet, sallied forth from the college with unconcealed joy on his mission of pleasure. At last he turned into Thirteenth street and approached the domicile of the fair one with fast beating heart. Suddenly he halted .amazed before a dilapidated hut with the number 2 abo -e the door. What ! he exclaimed half aloud to himself. Surely something is wrong. But palaces do not make princes. Even the great Diogenes lived in a tub — so here goes . His loud knock almost shattered the door, but it had the etifect of bring- ing a hasty response. Tlie latch clicked, the door opened and before him. 255 c arrayetl in gorgeous garments of yellow, appeared a corpulent female with a face as black as ebony. Before he had time to recover from his astonishment, the feminine one exclaimed — This I ? pose is Mistah Hill. Well, just step in and make yusself at home . Does — does — a — a — Miss Estelle Post live here ' ? gasped the Freshman, faltering in the doorway. Yes, suh , came the I ' ejjly. I ' se her . What, you Estelle Post, tlie girl that I ' ve been writing to ? • Yes, sur, dat ' s it, but it ain ' t been me ' xactly. You see, some of dem college boys who come here for their washes done tole me about you after I got dat first note you sent. Dey read the rest of em and then they got some gal to write dat note askin ' you to come around to-day. Pse sure glad to have callers and dem were most ' suredly affectionate epistles that you done sent me, child . A chorus of laughs and shouts caused both to look across the street. A crowd of students, some of whom Clarence recognized as close acquaint- ances, were doubled up with side-splitting laughter. Panic stricken, he brushed past his hostess, dashed through the cal)in, out the back door and taking tb.e fence at a jump, raced across a vacant lot and into a nearbv cemetery. Skirt- ing the edge of the cemetery, he headed directly for a hedge row into which he recklessly hurled himself. Fortunately the growth was not thick. He broke through, landing in a heap on the path on the other side directly at the feet of the other Miss Post, out alone for a stroll . Why — why — what ' s the matter ? gas])ed the girl, the first of the two to recover from her astonishment. Oh — oh — nothing, nothing ' s the matter, only I — I — a — Pve been run- ning a little bit , panted Clarence. So I notice. But who were vou runnino- from ? Why )ou see — you — I wasn ' t exactly running from anybody, T was onlv Running for fun finished the girl. 256 ' Well, no. I suppose — I guess — a — a — I might as well be frank, Miss Post , blustered Clarence, for you ' ll hear the story from somebody else s(JOn enough anyway. This little note wliich came, as I supposed from you, will explain it , and he handed her the Washington ' s Birthday invitation. Mv letter ? Why, this isn ' t even my writing , she exclaimed as she read. And here, look, my name isn ' t Estelle Post ; it ' s Ethel . That ' s it, it ' s just my luck. Here, I thought Pd been corresponding with you and instead it was with — oh d — it — excuse me — with a coon . At first shocked, his companion became interested and pressed him for the story. She listened intently as he frankly told of the notes he had been unsuspectingly sending lo the washwoman and how the other fellows had read and answered them. After he had recited the incidents attending his recent call on Thirteenth street, Miss Post tittered and then giggled outright. And to think that Pve been writing to Estelle Post , moaned Clarence, in conclusion. ' A moment of silence followed. The girl had trouble in suppressing the smiles which sometimes burst out in spite of her. Across from the cemeterv floated the laughter of a crowd of students. Clarence tlushed at the sound and turned to go. ' Wait just a minute , pleaded the girl. It was rude to laugh, but it was all so funny. You really were persevering and — well, if vou like, in address- ing your letters hereafter you may change Estelle to Ethel . i A New Game What are you doing, my pretty maid ? Why, it ' s ' Five Hundred ' , sir , she said. Why do you do it, my lovely lass ? Because last week I cut my class . With a weary sigh said the maid divine, Five hundred words for Pop Perrine . 257 Letters From a Self-Made Beauty to Her Emulator Chicago, 111., January 2, 19 10. My Dear Kitty: When I was visiting at x ' our Imme this summer you expressed a depreca- tory opinion of women who would use artificial means to improve their looks. Now, that is all nonsense ! A w-oman w ho will not make use of any agent for self-heautification is foolish. A stylish figure is the prime requisite tc beauty and you should make use of any means to attain it. The most effi- cient of these means are pads and pneumatic forms — don ' t be shocked. Of course, there are beauty doctors who claim that they can develop your form safely and satisfactorily, but their methods are too slow — styles change so quickly and a woman has to be able to adjust herself with facility, and pads and forms, you know, are put on and ofif much easier than flesh can be put on and off. And don ' t be bothered about all the stufil: ' you learned in physiology about lacing, it ' s all an old fogy notion. Vhy, I could reduce my waist to three inches if fashion so dictated! Your complexion, loo, requires careful attention, but don ' t believe what some people tell you about not being able to have a good complexion without eating and sleeping hygienically. Good cosmetics skillfully applied save half the trouble and are far more effective. ' ith these you can make up any kind of a complexion that happens to be m vogue — a peach bloom, a dark southern flush, or an alabaster whiteness. And now, if you will follow my advice, j ' ou can make yourself a beautiful woman. You ' ' loving Aunt Geraldine. Chicago, 111., February 17, 19 10. My Dear Kitty: Your last letter gave me some encouragement. I ' ve despaired of you some times, you seemed so indifferent to the advantages of beautv. Xow, just a word about your iiair. Remember, my dear, it ' s not the girl with lots of hair who makes the prettiest coifl ures; more often it is the girl with only a few tresses of her own, but who knows how to make up for these defi- ciencies at some French shop. 258 The hair should be done low and as far out, in the back, as one and a half times the width of the head, with the curls piled out as much as the support of the barrette will bear. It doesn ' t matter so much if the curls don ' t quite match your own hair, it ' s the style that counts. Your mother always had such foolish scruples about wearing her own hair and all of that, but she didn ' t cut half the dash in society that I did. Remember, my dear, it ' s style that counts. As ever, Your loving Aunt Geraldine. Chicago, 111., April i6, 1910. My Dear Kitty: You know, my dear, how much I have always believed in massage. It was that that relieved the hollows under my eyes after the season at New- port. A few little points in the art of massage will enable the most homely woman to become pretty and the beautiful woman to become more attractive. One of the most simple secrets of massaging is that of making dimples. Proceed in this way: Press the fourth finger of your right hand just where you want the dimple, hard and continuously for fifteen minutes, then re- place with the little finger of your left hand and press for twenty minutes. This repeated two or three times a day for a fortnight ought to show results. I think your looks would be greatly improved if you had at least one dimple, say on your chin for instance. Any girl with a dimpled chin and a gold tooth — which, by the way, is about as efifective a bit of jewelry as a girl can invest in especially if it is correctly placed just back where it is seen only when she smiles (you know, men like to see gold in a woman ' s smile) — a prettily dimpled chin and a gold tooth ought to enable any girl to marry rich. Your most affectionate Aunt Geraldine. J Only a Difference of Expression He — Did you enjoy the skating to-day ?

Well, I don ' t want Central, I want George . His number? Why, I didn ' t know that he had to be registered like an automobile ; and, anyhow, he ' s never showed me his tag . Oh, how silly of me; I should have known, of course, that you meant the telephone number. Now just wait a minute and 1 will find it . Yes, Central, I ' m still looking ' . Hello! Are you still there? I ' m awfully sorry to have kept you wait- ing so long, but there are two whole rows of ' Georges ' here in the directory and I can ' t tell which number I want . His last name? He hasn ' t any — er-er-e-e-at least I only met him at Shamokin last night you know, and he just told me to call him George. He has blue eyes, and light hair, and wears a pretty hat band, and . You can ' t get him? Well, I should say you can ' t! He ' s mine and you can ' t have him . Never mind explaining. I just won t talk over your old telephone so you can ' t find out who he is. So there ! The Gibson Girl Idolatry. (Wedding Day) A high forehead ; a Grecian nose ; A haughty chin, with piqued pose : A sea shell ear ; hair in curl — She stands supreme ; the Gibson girl . Repentance. (One Year Later) Disheveled hair : negligee attire ; A frowning look ; volcanic ire ; A bitter word ; lips in a curl ; Deliver me — from the Gibson girl . Pardon and Peace. (Soon) A little germ ; a doctor, knave : A short farewell ; a grass grown grave ; A little dust ; a little whirl Annihilates the Gibson girl . 261 Lamentations now drear to this lieart is the old college blue bonk. When examination presents it to view ! How flees from my mind every rule, date and precept. And every blame thing that I once thought I knew ! I cannot recall what made ancient Greeks quarrel, Or what was the reason the Roman world fell ; I cannot remember what makes a man moral. Or why Cleopatra was thought such a swell. That old college blue book contains sixteen pages. And tho from the center I ' ve taken out four, I find it a task that requires ' tarnel ages To fill up the rest from my slim stock of lore. I write, like as not, on my views of creation — And have to invent ' em, which takes quite a spell — And then on the profit of self-abnegation , The good will of Kant, and som e more things as well. Each time I look back on the part that is finished. And then on the quantity still to be done, I wish I had sought a bit more after wisdom And quite a bit less after folly and fun. And as I keep on with my slow cerebration The tear of regret will intrusively swell. As fancy reverts to the old Reading station Where a whole push is laughing and saying farewell. you college blue book, You blue-covered blue book, You old college blue book 1 wish you in — Sunbury! Maybe the Tunnel Was Too Short She had written a theme on the college flirtation of a man and a maid and wound up with a tunnel episode for a climax. The Theme isn ' t so bad , commented Professor Phillips, but it lacks the proper smack at the end . 262 ■i Sophomore Oratory ILVER-TONGUED orators who have harangiied in Bromley Smith ' s classic halls, will recognize the following oration which is credited with having won first prize in the Sophomore Oratory Con- test last year : Gentlemen and ladies, I arise with diffidence. To be or not to be, that is the question. When in the course of human events it becomes necessary for the cow to jump over the moon, we demand that such a parabolic demon- stration be given due consideration. For we must remember that four score and seven years ago it was not thus. It might have been. Stormed at with shot and shell, the lowing herd winds slowly o ' er the lea, the village smithy stands, and brooding Darkness spreads his jealous wings. Brethren, these things ought not so to be. Shoot if you must this old gray head but let me taste the whole of it. Wherefore rejoice? What con- stitutes a state? Ye wolves that laught the sock to scorn. Howl ye winds and ye tempestuous waves that foam. Long may thy waters spray the dis- tant twinkling milky way. Worlds on worlds are rolling ever. Roll on, roll on, and if perchance the golden sun is sinking, devil take me if I knew aught of it. Still sits the school house by the road and many a stormy wind shall blow, but the raven never flitting, still is sitting, still is sitting, still curfew shall not ring to-night in thunder, lighning, or in rain. And now let us hear the con- clusion of the whole matter — as the immortal poet saith : How doth the little business bee. Delight to bark and bite; He gathers beeswax in the day And eats it up at night . A Had Him Spotted A teacher at the Lutheran Sunday School was telling her class of small boys stories from the Old Testament. Who knows who Abraham was ' ? she asked. There was a painful silence and then a little red-headed fellow piped out : Oh, I know him, Abraham ' s that fellow who goes around with Miss H - . o o o Nibbs — How do you like Colestock ' s history ? Dibbs — Aye, there ' s the rub — it ' s too much his-story ' 263 Higher Education QOW listen to a dissertation, On modern liberal education, Based on personal observation. And minute investigation. By one with inside information. First you leave your pa ' s plantation, With great fear and trepidation, Take your baggage to the station. When you reach your destination, You appear for registration. And I hope, matriculation. Pay your bill with protestation. Pay for room accommodation, Light and heat and ventilation. And a liberal education. Now you join some organization, Now the athletic association, Write for checks on each occasion. You must have determination If you wish an education ; Never yield to fierce temptation, But endure the worst privation And the midnight lucubration If your brain needs lubrication. Take some harmless preparation. On Doc Gundy ' s recommendation. Never take the hot potation, That will bring intoxication, Leading you to degradation. Go to church for edification. Now and then take recreation. After your examination, You will have a short vacation 264 tm s For the needed relaxation, And a slight recuperation After worry and vexation, Toil and nervous agitation. Then come back to your vocation With a greater concentration. Lecture, study, recitation. Logic, Physics, Legislation, Latin, Ethics, Greek translation. Science, Railroad Transportation. Till you end your education. Pass your last examination, Then you ' ll feel an exultation, Far beyond all expectation. And receive congratulation, From many a fond and dear relation, Who attends your graduation Making quite a celebration. Giving praise and commendation, Presents, flowers, felicitation, Last, you leave with hesitation. Every dear association Gatehouse helps you to the station. You return to civilization. And hunt up a situation. Tell me not in idle dreaming, Life is but a merry jest. For the facts are more than seeming, And the old folks know it best. You may talk of inspirations. Don ' t discount them, not a bit. But the thing that buys the rations, Is plain git up and git . 265 Hazing Semites HERE was a lull in the Sem life — the calm that precedes a storm. M J For days there had been nothing to break the monotony. No new callers had appeared at the ' Sem , no g-allant knight had escorted his Lady down tlie hill, there had not even been a curtain lecture — Something must happen to break the spell, to send the pendulum swinging backward. A flash from a clear sky signalled the gathering storm. The c|uiet of the study hour was brooding over the Cozy Corner . A trio of maidens were lounging comfortably over the lessons of the morrow and an occasional petulant exclamation w s all that disturbed the silence. Suddenly from the floor below came the sounds of hilarious revelry. The noise increased and a moment later a Sophomore burst into the room. Girls, I won ' t stand this any longer , she gasped, indignant and breathless. Those Freshmen should be made to know their place . What ' s the matter ? came in a sympathetic chorus. Matter? Why, just come down on our corridor and see. Those Ereshies are dressed up in all kinds of ridiculous costumes and are making a dreadful racket. That Jane Mackintosh has fixed up with a sweater, broom stick, and false face, and appears to be walking on her head and — . The speaker gasped for breath. Well, I don ' t mind the foolishness so much, but I can ' t sleep for their racket. When 1 stuck my head out and protested, that queer look- ing object that was walking on its head stalked up to me and called ' Halt ! ' -— ' We are the class of one riine one three. Brilliant, bold. Freshmen we. Scat ! Just think of the nerve of it, girls ! Let ' s haze them , exclaimed a Western girl as the indignant one sub- sided onto the cozy corner. There was a sign of interest and the speaker continued. Let ' s do it, girls! I must work off energy some way and it won ' t be breaking the rules, either. Ell get permission and — why, even Tomniy ' ll let us. Hurry and get all the other girls. Seniors, Juniors and So])homores ! I ' ll be back in a minute . Dickens ' mob that rushed to storm the Bastile could not have been more excited, more eager, and more dangerously armed than the company of gig- gling, excited girls, with streaming hair and gay colored-kimonas, wdiich assembled a few minutes later armed with megaphones, tennis rackets, old shoes, brooms, carpet beaters, and other implements of torture , hurriedly snatched from the rooms. In hushed impatience the company awaited the return of the leader and the signal for the onslaught. A patter of footsteps sounded at the end of the hall. 266 msimmam Quick, girls, we can do it , burst out the Westerner, elbowing her way through the crowd. Didn ' t I tell you that this pokey old place was getting on the nerves of even the teachers. ' Tommy ' and ' Ma Bush ' have both given their permission provided the hazing is conducted in a lady-like manner. The teachers are not to interfere and it is to be at 1 1 130 and must be over before the lights are out. It ' s to be short, and lady-like, and — Don ' t interrupt me ! I ' m from the Wild and Woolly West ! Let ' s pro- ceed ! Here, ' Doc ' , you draw up our grievances and the set of rules that those Freshies must promise to obey. ' Sal ' , here is one of the teacher ' s master keys in case the doors are locked. Take three other girls with you and bring the Freshmen peacefully, if possible, if not, use a little ' lady-like ' persuasion. Here, wait, take this carpet beater ! In true Klu Klux Klan style the Freshmen were routed out and made to run the gauntlet of the uncompromising line of students and then, before they had the sleepiness fairly rubbed out of their eyes, they were hailed to the appointed place to stand trial before the student body. At first inclined to take the affair as a good joke, the Freshies soon wilted before the withering glances of the other girls. With serious mien, Doc stepped forth and proceeded to read in the gravest of tones, the set of rules and regulations, stating that they were sanctioned by the faculty and drawn up at the suggestion of the President. A troubled silence followed the read- ing and even pert Jane Mackintosh forgot to giggle. Well , exclaimed the Western girl, breaking in on the silence, we have tried to compromise in a decent way. Your silence drives us to take drastic measures. The girls here have something to say. They will state their par- ticular grievances to you and punishments will be meted out according to your answers. Claire, will 3 ' ou lay your charges against this offender ? In stern, emphatic tones, the Senior addressed informed the culprit that she must not be seen running down the hill — it was unlady-like ; she must not step over the chain on the way to chapel — that was extremely undignified ; she must follow and not precede upperclassmen into the dining room ; she must bring water and wash dishes if commanded ; and — It isn ' t nice to eat up all the olives at dinner ! broke in a second. Nor to draw pictures in the chapel hymn books , fired another. And you aren ' t to smoke on the campus, nor walk with your hands in your pockets, nor roll up your trousers , chimed in an excited Sophomore girl, thrusting forward a printed set of Freshmen rules from the hill . Will you obey ? demanded the leader. A moment ' s hesitation and then a gentle reminder brought out a trembling Y-e-e-s-s . 267 One by one the prisoners succumbed until ;il last came Jane Mackintosh. Then everybody wanted to talk at once ; everybody had a grievance. Un- flinchingly and without changing color, Jane heard them all — in silence. Have you anything to say, Jane ? No answer. A third time I ask you , coaxed the Western girl, for here was no tender- foot. The lips trembled slightly but still there was silence. Proceed, girls ! commanded Doc . The first phalan.K of carpet-beaters rushed forward. Their weapons swished thru the air. A stifled cry broke from Jane, she s Just then the lights went out. Everything was in confusion. There was a scurrying of feet as the girls felt their way back thru the dark halls to their rooms. The Western girl stumbled over a bundle of bed clothes and bumped her head against the wall. These must belong to Jane , she muttered. Poor kid, guess I ' ll return them . Knocking at the door she received no answer, but a suppressed sob came from the inside as she turned the knob to thrust in the bed clothes. It was late when she came back. What made you stay so long ? queried tlic other girls, who had stayed awake to a vait her return. I guess I ' m the tenderfoot, girls, but you ' d ' ve all done the same thing that 1 did. This has been a nice way to treat poor homesick Freshmen ! Let them work off their surplus energy if they want to . What did T do? I — I apologized . When Prexy Comes to Tea rtHEN Prexy comes to the Sem for tea We ' re all as glad as glad can be ; Peas, croquettes and ice cream have we. When Prexy comes to the Sem for tea. When Prexy comes to the Sem for tea We wear our very best toggerie. And a smile that you can plainly see, When Prexy comes to the Sem for tea. Then after tea up-stairs we go. The teachers and Prexy stand u]i in a row, Down the line we grandly go. And shake their hands just so and so. Home goes Prexy after tea. And we ' re all as sad as sad can be. Kind, old Prexy! We wish that he Would always come to the Sem for tea. 268 L Agenda Laughs A Chip Off the Old Block The two children of Professor Thomas of tlie Academy, at one time a star of the local gridiron, were playing with a football. Martha ran with the ball but stumbled and fell, whereupon Howard promjitiy sat on her head. Aroused by Martha ' s cries, the Professor called: Howard, get up this instant ! AVhat do you mean by treating your sister so ? The little fellow looked astonished at such reproof and with trembling- lip replied, Well, pa[)a, she hasn ' t said ' down ' yet . o a o Say , ventured a Prep, approaching one of the Sem teachers a few days previous to one of the Academy receptions, won ' t you please help me out. I want to take a girl to the reception but I really don ' t know anyone to ask . The teacher responded to the ajjpeal. She found a maiden who was will- ing and summoned the young gallant to her presence. After describing to him the attractiveness of the fair one, the teacher was disappointed to find that he was not quite satisfied. She questioned him as to his hesitancy. We-1-1-1 , he faltered, are you sure that she ' s a good Christian girl ? o o o A Conflict in Studies Coach Hoskins (out after material for a scrub football team) — Look here.

Lately when he wished to set one of these gallinarum he sought the ad- vice of a student of rustic philosophy. Do you put four or five eggs in the nest ? he asked. On being assured that the gallina could cover 12 or 15 eggs, he exclaimed : How many layers deep shall I make them ? He was informed that one layer would be sufficient, but is still puzzled to know where the hen found loom to put her feet. o o o An Oversight Tod was absent from Roads and Pavements on Friday and late on Saturday, but likewise marked absent.

When as in other days we join thy praise to tell, In loud ringing song to thee, our loved Bucknell. 272 Contributors to the Literary Department Katherine v. Bronson Helen Winifred Cure Hester E.

Thus closed the lalwrs of our friend and co-worker, one who had attained eminence as an instructor, and wide recognition as a scholar, lecturer, and author. Dr. Groff came to Bucknell in 1876 as instructor in chemistry. He was made Professor of Science in 1879 and, with a slight break, was a member of the faculty until the time of his death — serving from 1888 to 1889 as acting president. His term of service stands unequalled in the university by that of any other professor . — Dr. W. C. Bartol. Dr. Groff wished knowledge to be made the common property of all. He would universalize every new point gained by science from the dark. Every farmer ' s lad and every ' brown heeled girl of the Susquehanna ' should know the mysteries of nature and of life. He loved education. He was in- spired by the new atmosphere whose wind indeed blowed where it listed, but before whose breath the grain fields swayed, showing it passed our way. The men who caught the vision of nature ' s secret have wrought marvels of trans- formation in all the educational seats of this and of all lands. They have made the theory and practice of culture take note of the elemental facts and processes of the life and the history of the globe. The West spoke in Dr. Groff to the ears of the East. The denizens of the new, vast prairie needed to know the life of plant and animal environing them, needed to know sanitation and hygiene no less than philosophy. Dr. Groff was early in insisting that the college should expand her work, extend her influence, reach the people. Not in isolation from the masses of men lies the service of the college in a republic, but in such continuity of work, such recognition of the peoples ' need of every result of research, that the whole people shall benefit by every discovery of the investigator. Dr. Groff lived to see the fulfillment of his early educational thought and practice in a nation-wide dissemination of useful information by the gov- ernment bureaus, the State experiment stations, and agricultural colleges, the attention given to hygiene in all the schools, the nature studies now so help- ful to the children, and in the place of leading and light occupied by natural science in all university and collegiate training . — Baptist Commonwealth. 275 1| Alumni i ' i ! Rev. John M. Lyons, ' 51. John M. Lyons was born near what is now known as Atglen, Chester County, Pa., January 24, 1828. His early education was gleaned from the few spare hours that came at the end of long days spent in following the plow as a farm boy. The books which absorbed his spare moments and which held for him the most intense interest were the Greek Testament, Zenophon, and the Aneid. Into these he delved under the toutor- age of his father who had once been a school teacher. He showed such propensities for study that a friendly pastor told the story to the Baptist Association and the cornfiel d student was sent to the University of Lewisburg, now Bucknell. Early in life Mr. Lyons resolved not to seek the loud calls but to help those likely to be neglected. The best part of his life was spent in New Jersey and New York where he helped to rear up new churches and to strengthen crippled congregations. His first pastorate after graduation was at the Oak Lane Baptist Church, Philadelphia. Other charges were at Columbus, N. J., New Rochelle, N. Y., Beulah, Royersford, and Med- ford, N. J. Still active at seventy, his latest effort was in the reorganizing of a little Baptist Church at Richland under the direction of the Camden Association. Recently he retired and he and his wife are now at the Nugent Home for Baptists. Mr. Lyons has the distinction of being the sole survivor of the first class that was graduated from the university and consequently of being the oldest alumnus of Bucknell. He has thrice been chosen Alumni poet. Rev. John .S. WrightnouRj D.D., ' 69. At present enjoying a prosperous pastorate at the First Baptist Church, Scranton, Pa., is John S. Wrightnour, who graduated in the classical course at Bucknell with the Class of ' 69. Mr. Wrightnour, was born at Penn Line in 1851. He is a nephew of the late George M. Spratt, D.D., one of the founders of the University of Lewisburg and long a member of its Board of Trustees. After graduating with honors, Mr. Wrightnour, entered Crozier and later took his first charge at the Pequa Bap- tist Chuch in Lancaster County. His otlier pastorates have been at Brook- ville, the Shady Avenue Baptist Church, Pittsburg, Oil City, and in Ohio and Illinois. The degree of D.D. was con- ferred upon him by his Alma Mater in 1897 and in 1902 he was called to the Scranton church where he is still located. He has been successful in the ministry, has given the hand of church fellow- ship to more than 1,200 converts, and has written extensively for the denomi- national press. Married in 1874 to Ida M. Frampton, he has four children, the youngest of whom is the wife of Ralph A. Amerman. a trustee of the university. He is a member of the Hyde Park Lodge, No. 339, F. A. M. 276 George Morris Philips, Ph.D., LL.D., ' 71. After delivering the Latin salutatory at the Com- mencement of 1871, George Morris Philips was chosen professor of mathematics at Monongahela College. He remained there for two years and then accepted the professorship of higher mathematics at the West Chester Normal School. In 1879 he re- signed to accept the chair of mathematics and astronomy at the University of Lewisburg, and after remaining here for three years, he returned to West Chester to take the principalship of State Normal School, which position he still holds. Dr. Philips is a lecturer of note and a contribu- tor lo educational and other publications. He is the author of Nation and State , a text book on civil government, of two geographies of Pennsylvania, and, in connection with President Sliarpless, of Haver- ford College, of an astronomy and of a natural phil- osophy. The degree of Ph.D. was conferred upon him by his Alma Mater in 1884 and in 1906 he received a degree of Doctor of Laws from Temple University at Philadelphia. In 1877 he was married to Elizabeth M. Pyle and has two children. He is a trustee of Bucknell University, and was for several years president of the Bucknell Alumni Club, of Philadelphia. He has been president of the State Teachers ' Associa- tion, twice vice president of the National Educational Association, was a member and secretary of the State Commission which prepared the school code of 1909, and is now a member of the Council of National Educational Associations. Colonel Freeman G. Teed, ' jt . One of the conspicuous figures in the civic life of Los Angeles, California, to-day is Col. Freeman G. Teed, a member of the Class of ' IZ. Col. Teed comes of sturdy Pilgrim stock, one of his direct ancestors. Captain John Gallup, having been slain in the Narragansett Swamp in King Phillip ' s War. Ten years after graduating from Lewisburg University, where he had organized the first boat crew and had been prominent in early baseball, he went West to make a name for himself, having a year previously married Frances Schoder, of Woodbridge, N. J. An ardent Republican, he early affiliated himself with the party organization and abandoning the prac- tice of law in 1887, held public office for twelve con- secutive years. He was U. S. Commissioner. City Auditor, City Clerk, President of Council, Acting Mayor and Collector of Internal Revenue. A mys- terious illness which affected his sight, caused him to retire from active life for several years but he has since regained his health and is his normal self again. Col. Teed early interested himself in military affairs. He was a member of the 22d Regiment of New York, served two years on the Plains with the Texas Rangers, and after ten years of service in the National Guard of California has been retired with the rank of Lieutenant Colonel. He has held high rank in the Masonic order, is a member of the Sigma Chi fraternity, and is active in the civic organizations of his home town. 277 Spencer Byron Meeser, D.D., 83. Dr. Meeser, who has recently been called to the chair of Systematic Theology at Crozer Theological Seminary, graduated from Bucknell in 1883 after a preparatory education in Girard College and the pub- lic schools of Philadelphia. Before completing his course at Crozer he was called to the pastorate of the First Baptist Church, of Paterson, N. J., which he filled most successfully for seven years. While pastor of the Second Baptist Church, of Wilmington. Del., Dr. Meeser served as president of tlie State Christian Endeavor and was instrumental in tlie organizmg of the State Mission Society of Baptists. Two years later he left Wilmington and the two subsequent charges which he filled with his characteristic zeal and vigor were the First Baptist Church, Worcester, Mass., and Woodward Avenue Church, Detroit, Michigan. In 1908 he was acting pastor of the Emanuel Church, Brooklyn, during the absence in Europe of Dr. Humpstone. Activity in other lines than the ministry has marked the career of Dr. Meeser. He has been keenly interested in the civic welfare of those communities in which he has served as pastor and has written extensively for the denominational press. He was a state representative from Michigan at the Baptist World Congress and served on the constitution committee for the Baptist World Alliance. A degree of D.D. was conferred upon him by Brown Universiy m 1901. Walter S. Harlev, ' 87. Walter S. Harley graduated from Bucknell with the Class of ' 87. He received his Master ' s degree three years later and from 1892-94 was a graduate student at the University of Chicago. Previous to his graduate work, he was teacher of Latin and mathematics for four years at the South Jersey Insti- tute. After leaving Chicago in 1894 he filled a similar position in the Boys ' High School at Reading, Pa., where he remained for five years. At present Mr. Harley is professor of Latin at Erasmus Hall High School, Brooklj ' n, where he was called in 1899. Educational publications in which Professor Har- ley has been interested are, The First Year of Latin , Gunnison and Harley, 1902, and Caesar ' s Gallic War , Gunnison and Harley, 1907. 278 («; IW !

The American will do tlie work of the $100 maehines at high speed, and is covered with the same guar- antee. Tt is their equal because it has every essential feature; 1,200 cumbersonie, troublesome and easily broken j)arts of other machines have been eliminated. Its sim- plicity of c ' onstrp_ction, the absence of the thousand and one little levers, bars, screws and springs which make the cost of $100 niacliines accounts for this unequaled offer. The absence of all these complicated parts makes the American tip the scales at 12 pounds. It ' s the only high grade macliine that is really portable. The fundamental point of American superiority is the single type-bar-one-piece of stcel-non-1 endable and unbreakable by any stroke that can be deliveied on llie key, and this is the cause of its simplicity, durability, etiiciency and compactness.
