Facing each other 5 W opposite a small fire of sedgebrush, built in a cimaron, are stretched two E .y, figures wrapped in blankets. One is medium old. The hair on his head is gray; his face shows fine lines, a square jaw, and kind blue eyes; but the sunken chest and the hollow cough sounding therefrom at intervals told a tale that we need not here relate. The other is medium young. He is veritably a chip off the old block, except that his chest and shoulders have an athletic build. The younger man speaks as if in answer to a question— Mine, you say, father? A dreamy look of pleasant recollection flows across his face. Ah, they were my comrades, father. Year, did you ask? Why ' 14 ' to be sure. I thought that was carved indelibly on the foundations of your memory. es, ours was the Class of ' 14. There has been none like it either before or since, and when there is I will take my knapsack and wend my way thither — and he jerked his thumb westward — to the land of the vanishing sun, leaving this land to that perfect generation. Yes, I admit, there was a little prepishness among us, a little bit of snobbish- ness, some narrowness, due to our inexperience, and quite a deal of ignorance ; but when it came to the real thing — the acid test — those men of the Class of ' 14 would reach out their hands to one another across the petty little chasms of everyday life, and grasping those of their brothers they would pull together with a steadfast cling that did more for them as men than anything else in all the world has done or ever can do. When it came to the sacrifice of the individual for the good of that bunch, I tell you, father, there was not one that would not do it. They were the kind that knew and appreciated a man for what he was worth; and only men of that kind now wear this — and he held up a hand on which was a ' 14. Right well do I remember when we first came together. It was in the Fall of 1910. Three hundred and some strong we were ; but time, providence, and certain men K)I4 TAPS ; ' I ' ■ 7 I At with short legs and Roman noses and various other distinguishing characteristic epithets, thinned us down from year to year, until, at graduation, we numbered only seventy-six. Some came at the beginning w:th their purpose mapped out, and they stuck to it admirably well. Others came in the hope that something would turn up which would put them on the right road to success. Still others came listlessly, caring not for what they came, and knowing not unto what it would lead them — but, do you know, father, how many of the latter graduated with us? Not one. We had genius, wit, ability, pathos, kindness, respect for all things made by the Great Creator. We had men that would not set foot on a worm needlessly, yet those same men would not hesitate to draw their swords against the greatest antagonist of the common good. Our men established themselves at college shortly after their arrival there, and by the time we were Sophomores our fame had gone abroad. Our Class stood for the highest honor system obtainable; and we maintained it, too. We made the dirt fly in athletics. Two from our ranks have been numbered on the famous all-Southern teams. Fourteen of us wore the coveted ' C We established an athletic record that has been the envy of the other classes. We raised some sand in the Literary Societies. We had speakers that were famous all over the State. Leaders in Agriculture and Engineering were found in our ranks in no small numbers. They are now in various and sundry places. From the Sudan, where the cholera fight is raging, to the frozen lands of the Klondike, there are men wearing the honored ' ' 14. ' We have good-natured, jovial planters in the Sunny South, and cold, calculating business men in the world ' s metropolis. They are a credit to themselves, an honor to their college, and loyal and patriotic citizens of their State. I tell you, father, they are the men that make the world go round — the last was spoken dreamily. The fire had died low. , Sounds of deep breathing coming from across the fire settled like sweet music on the tired nerves of the young man; the waking world of rattlers, tarantulas, and vinagarones, that dare not cross the coiled rope, knew him no more; and The flowing sands of the cactus land, sweeping by with a hollow roar. Found them sleeping in a cimaron. where their fathers slept before. ' — Historian fj£- ; :Z . : ' i.-:. s%s ( -Acs 5 Z- fe .

PO 5 HAROLD deserted the Lutherans at Newberry, in the Spring of 1912, and came to Clemson to develop his latent electrical engineering faculties. But, after culti- vation of a taste for drill and reveille, he showed re- r markable military development, capturing a sergeant and later a lieutenant. Regardless of political tastes, his genial disposition has won him many friends, who pre- dict for him a most successful career as an electrical engineer in the little city of Newberry.

Byrd is a deep thinker, a sleeper of sleepers, and a snorer of snorers. He has distinguished himself as a military genius, having won many honors, and intro- duced a new kind of salute. Byrd advances the idea that the A. I. E. E. hall could be beautified by using Chanticleers.

Herbert, or Jock, from the City by the Sea, blew into Clemson during the middle ages. JOCK is a jolly good boy, who is thought highly of by everyone. He has a particular fancy to a certain word, Jane: What can it mean? HERBERT is a lover of romance, poetry, and song. Another of his favorites is Snook- ums. His great ability to make friends will make him famous, and his friendly manner makes him one of the happiest persons that ever fooled the Colonel.

I Junior Class flnstorp N THE FALL of Nineteen Hundred and Eleven, four hundred hopeful but trembling lads were unloaded as prospective sheepskin-holders for 1915. As we must expect in the battle of life, ours was not a rose-strewn path, and many fell by the roadside ere we reached our second year. But the ability and perseverance that has characterized our Class has enabled us to reach our Junior year with the largest enrollment of any Junior Class in the history of the College. It is not only in quantity, but in quality as well, that our members have proved themselves superior. There is one of us who towers above all (we call him Mutt ). There are many whom we expect to see in later years occupying prominent places — per- haps in dime museums. From present indications, we expect to find at least two military genuises among us. Many may be noted riders, if we judge by youthful training. In- deed, it has been said of us, There never was another class like the Class of 1915. Some have made the mistake of taking this as a doubtful compliment; there is no doubt as to its real meaning. To be serious again, we find our Class well represented in every line of college work. We have men whom we expect to be prominent in the development of our State, in the conservation of her resources, and in the cause of humanity. May it be the reso- lution of every one of us, to become a man in the noblest sense of the word; to ever cherish in his heart the memory of his Class; and never to do a thing that would reflect aught but honor upon his school.

Vice-President J. P. Harrall _ Secretary and Treasurer E H. AGNEW Historian ftistorp of tfje Class! of 1916 ON Wednesday, September 11, 1912, we began our College career as the Class of 16. We then numbered two hundred and ninety Rats, and were as green as you could well imagine. We have truly lived to learn. After wandering, we have obeyed, worked, and learned, until now as Sophomores we stalk as proudly as we dare. And well may we be proud; for on the athletic field, in the class- room, and in the various other phases of College life, we have set standards that our successors will do well to follow. While greater responsibilities and probably harder duties await us in the future, with these we naturally expect to come increasing pleasures and perhaps honors. We have built an enviable reputation, and now we are determined to preserve it. If it were not for being Juniors, we should willingly live over a year so full of work and pleasure as this. May each of us do his part in keeping the history of the Class bright for another two years, and may we make a record that will stimulate the best efforts of succeeding classes. — Historian opf)omore Claste 4, ROLL Acker, E.

The sad reversal of affairs on that eventful day, turned-turtle our aspirat ' ors for high rank in the S. I. A. A. However, the season was very successful when viewed from the angle of future football ; for we firmly believe that in the 1913 team lies the nucleus of a championship team within the next two or three years. Let us see if we are justified in making such a statement. Back in September of this session, Clemson secured the services of a valuable coach, one who had coached successful Clemson teams of old. Bob ' Williams, with Rip ' Major as assistant, formed as good a staff of coaches as could be boasted by any Southern college. When they beheld the somewhat crude material that had maintained Clemson ' s mediocre standard of the past several years, the outlook must have seemed dark and uncertam. But they took to the task with such zeal and determination as has but few times been displayed on Bowman Field. The veterans and recruits proved willing workers, and were soon going through such grilling work as they had never before experienced. But every man put forward his best efforts, and the results were good. We defeated Davidson on the campus early in October, the score being 6 to 3. This game revealed many of our weak ponts, which were gradually strengthened. The following Saturday, we met the strong University of Alabama team at Tuscaloosa. We held them to one touchdown through the greater part of the game, and came very near scoring twice. The journey down had been long and wearisome, and as a result we weakened in the final period, allowing them to score two touchdowns, the final score being 20 to 0. Then followed the great game on the campus with Auburn, the big, powerful machine which won the S. I. A. A. Championship. Although outweighed twenty pounds to the man, we held the champs ' ' to a 20 to score, playing them to a stand- still, and forcing them to punt time and again. When the State Fair came off, the I iger team was working like a smooth- running automaton. The big game with the Univers ' ty took place on Thursday of Fair Week. It was one grand, glorious Tiger victory, from the initial kick-off to the final whistle. Before the largest crowd that ever witnessed a football game in South Carolina, we triumphed 32 to 0. The much-boasted Carolina team was outclassed in every aspect of the game, and not once did they stand the slightest chance of scoring. The following week was a strenuous one indeed for the Tigers. On I hursday following the Fair, we met the strong University team, in Augusta, headed by the intrepid McWhorter. This game was the surprise of the season in Southern football. It had been freely predicted that Georgia would win by a good-sized score. When the third quarter ended, we possessed the larger end of a 1 5 to 6 score. Georgia simply could not penetrate our defense. In the final quarter, they resorted to puzzling open formations, and made two touchdowns on forward passes in the last few minutes of the game, win- ning by a close score of 1 8 to 15. Two days later, in Charleston, the tired, battered team met the Citadel, and won in a fierce, closely-contested game, the score being 7 to 3. About ten days later, we met Mercer University, at Macon, and easily trounced them, in a loosely-played game, to the score of 52 to 0. Clemson ' s hopes for a victory over Tech rose to a high-water mark. Everyone predicted that our ancient foe would surely go down in defeat on Thanksgiving Day. When the game came off, on Grant Field, in Atlanta, thousands of loyal supporters filled the stands. Such a reversal of form as our team d : splayed in that game is probably without a parallel in Clemson ' s football history. It seemed that we were groggy, and could not get started; and we suffered fumbling galore. The goddess of fortune simply would not look our way at all, and everything seemed to go wrong. The result was an overwhelming defeat of 32 to 0. But we have great faith in Coach Bob, and we firmly believe that the Tiger team of 1914 will bring back to Clemson the lost laurels of so many disastrous and unfortunate gridiron battles in the great city. 1 i Bristol Guard Gandy Guard LlTTLEJOHN Tackle and Guard SCHILLETTER Tackle Major Halfback Caughman End Webb Fullbacl( Jeter Halfback Carson Center Brown End James Quarterback Magill End Hanvey Guard Logan Halfback Parker Guard bTRIBLING End Uju - ° n = x ..- .JfVl J 3 J; ceo 2 ° « c_: • £ a J U : - i_ ■ o «X«, 2 -§ 5 X (0 = - 8 r z ■■ « sf o u o ■ 2 «o •• H - X u 03 ■• - . r - i -£.

All of the would-be-champions of the State were met and overcome — Clemson ' s percentage in South Carolina being ONE THOUSAND. Not only were we successful in the State, but by breaking even with Georgia, and taking two out of three from Auburn, we caused such a muddle over the Southern Championship that no contender felt able to claim the pennant, Clemson ' s claim being as strong as that of any college or university in the South. Most of the credit for this success goes to Coach Dobson. At the first of the season, our prospects were anything but bright; but by instilling his own spirit into the squad, and by hard, consistent effort, he finally rounded out a strong working machine. The brunt of the pitching work fell on Doc Ezell and Anderson. These youngsters pitched the entire series of twenty games, without once needing relief, Ezell winding up the season with first place on All-Southern. The work of Browne and Dean, battery mates of these two pitchers, was good throughout the season. To the infield goes the credit of holding up the hitting average. Cureton, at short, hit for a grand total of .395; Hutto, at second, came next with .364; while Webb, at first, hit for .288, hs extra-base hitting being a feature. This trio, with Coles at third, not only hit well, but formed one of the fastest and surest infields of which Clemson has ever boasted. Due credit must be given the outfield for their neat work in handling fl ; es and long hits. The regular outfield, composed of Walker, Hiers, and Tarrant, hit for an average of .264. Seal, Parker, and Her, served in the utility role to good effect. The teams batting average was .260, and the fielding average .920.

At the Southern Intercollegiate Tournament, at Columbia, last Spring, Clemson made a clean sweep, capturing all trophy cups, and all first prizes, numbering three. The Erwin brothers claimed the doubles, by defeating Oates and Chambers, of the University of North Carolina, in first round, 6-4, 7-5, 6-4. Big Sook took the singles from Oates, in the first round, by a similar score. In the State Tournament this year, Clemson reached semi-final rounds in doubles and s ; ngles. To the surprise of almost all, Warring defeated Erwin, after the latter had won the first set, thus taking revenge on him for a defeat in the Southern meet last Spring. ®uv Publication 3CXI €fc Cfjromcle tEfje Agricultural Journal ■p ■ • ■ppnaija „._:_-L. Ctger Vol. IX Clemson College, S. C, October 29, 1913 No. 5 THE 1913 CAROLINA GAME It was during Fair Week of 1912 that the intrepid Tiger sallied forth and met with humiliating defeat at the hands of his ancient and formidable rival, the Gamecock. Well do we remember how the dauntless old Bengal battled to the bitter end. and its agony as it crept away with its proud old head bent low in defeat — broken in body and spirit. Back to his native haunts in the wilds of Oconee he wandered, there to brood over the loss of his laurels — the accumulation of years of triumphant victory With his slow recovery, however, came aga ' n the old dogged determination that had carried him on the crest of victory so many times in the past. Through the long year. the inconsolable beast brooded and dreamed of the coming fray, when he would wreak vengeance on the hated Gamecock. Then, as the fall of 1913 rolled around, he sensed the tang of autumn, and his fighting blood surged within his body, and called for action. In September, a new trainer stepped into the arena and began to whip the Tiger into shape. When the week be- fore the fight came, the beast was in perfect physical condition. His old wound had healed, and the bone and sinew of our rejuvenated automaton was as tough and hard as chilled steel. Yet, he was as agile as a cat; cautious and wary on defense; and quick and sure in action. And exultant, indeed, was the beast when his Coach led him into Columbia, the home of his ancient enemy And then the fight comes on. The Tiger, with the cold glint of sullen de termination in his eye, enters the arena and skulks around, eager for the fray The Gamecock, a proud, strutting bird almost as large as his rival, stalks on the field, anxious to swell his vaunted pride with another victory. The field is cleared amid the cheering of the thousands, the playing of bands, ard the waving of flags. Then, behold! The Tiger crouches and springs at his antagonist. The Gamecock maintains his poise and strikes; they clash Ye gods! Has the Tiger gone mad? The fierce onslaught of the beast sweeps the bird back in utter rout and confusion. The noise of combat is drowned in the mad cheering of the Tiger supporters. But the Tiger is too eager, and presently finds himself on the defensive.

Tie the little bull outside! 1 Let ' s have order in the Class, please. Men of the honorable old Class of 1914, we have come together today to con- sider some gross injustices that have been handed out to us from time to time in the past few weeks. We. men, are the rulers in this institution ( Like a fish! Tell it to Kelly! ) We are the guiding spirits, the men that do things around here; and we have been treated like underlings ever since we were Fresh- men, and some of us before that time. We do not propose to be trampled on any more. This Class has labored and toiled for many years, and now that we are on the top, some certain ones are trying co put us under again. We, the high and mighty Seniors, have to come into the Mess Hall, and march slam by the ends of the tables piled high with mountains of tempting light-bread, and lakes of epicurean ' Bull-juice ' (gravy), and beat it on down to the wall-end, where there ain ' t no light-bread, and not much of anything else. This is thing number one. These little Preppy assistants around (his joint want us to salute them, and, by crickety. it gives me a three-cornered pain to even think of it. Us!

W T e ' ll blow up the powder magazine, and push over the Standpipe! In fact, we ' ll show ' em that we ' re mad. We will raze silos to the ground! We will sell out the registered cattle! We ' ll have no more of Stein- metz, nor any like him. We will drink our coffee with loud laps, and never worry! We will even carry soup sand- wiches out of the Mess Hall, if we so desire; and in our hip pockets, if we will it. (At this point, amid loud ap- plause and vociferous yells, there came gallivanting through the door, Ephraim. Ed Hunter, and the Standpipe, in behalf of law, order, and civilization. Not deeming it wise to carry on the meeting in the presence of such rank outsiders. the deliberations were postponed until a less worse time.)

The denizens of the bird-kingdom drown out the savage growls of the beast with their cheering. And now the Tiger grows savage indeed, following each fierce on- slaught with another more terrific. The Tiger supporters go wild with joy, and send deafening cheers over the field The Gamecock never again has the ghost of a chance. The Tiger with relentless fury hammers at the Gamecock, until blood is drawn repeatedly. The bird grows sluggish, and the. wary beast takes advantage of every weakness. It is only a matter of time before the hard-pressed bird must fall in the gore and dust of the battle-scarred gridiron. The thousands in the stands are crying for more blood, but the Tiger is cautious, and is heed- less of all save the blood-strewn mass of plumage which weakly confronts him. The Gamecock ' s efforts become so en- feebled as to grow pitiable. The Tiger, sure of his prey, teases and toys with the lacerated bird. Then, through the filmy haze of the gridiron, the spectators see the end. One giant sweep of that mighty paw brings a wail — long, piercing, piti- ful, heart-rending, full of agony — the dying cry of the stricken Gamecock, and for one brief moment the dumb-stricken crowds watch in breathless awe. The Tiger, dripping with the blood of his ad- versary, leaves the field as unassumingly as he had entered it; the Gamecock, a tumbling, torn, and bleeding mass, lies where the final savage blow was dealt. The ending of the game was followed by a strained and hushed silence, a fit tribute of admiration and respect for the noble manner in which the Gamecock fought, and the exalted way in which he died. And then pandemonium broke loose. The Tiger supporters, exultant with joy over the avenging victory, in one glor- ious, triumphant march follow the path of the victorious Tiger.

And immediately they were cognizant- of the jaunt ahead of them, every mother ' s son of them wrote home to the bonded millionaire whose filthy lucre they had been sent away to squander; and they demanded more. Some of them, having not the wit promised the lowly louse, were bold, and told the guv ' nor the coin was for a good time and a spree; wherefore, they received but little. Others, who were keen, needed more of books, and bath-tickets, and Y. M. C. A. dues; and thus they received in abundance the iron-bucks, which later they blew in with great success. Also, the time being early, and many of them without their glad soldier rags, their garbs were made to hasten, so that they hung loosely about the frames they covered, as do the flapping garments of the plump and lively scarecrow. And finally, all things were arranged, even to the getting of haircuts, and the wrapping of blankets. And to the chosen servants of the Come-and-Dance ' , there were loaned the insignia 4 of his favor; and he called them Ossifers ; and they feared him, for they knew not if the favor was theirs to last. Then, on the twenty and seventh day of the tenth month of the year of which we speak, there arose with the dawn shouts and a great bustle. And, having fed, the blanket-rolled hundreds snagged onto their arms, and, falling into step, marched off with a great tramp, tramp. And behind them there was silence; for there was much glumness among the five score and ten who went not. Now there was waiting at the stopping place of the great Southern, a line of cars; and it was divided. And to each was an engine, that the cars, which are called a tram, might not stand still, but might have slow and everlasting movement. i — Square Meal Town: A spurious claim made by Columbia, S. C. - ' —Cognizant: A gcofl word, ami easy: see Standard Dictionary under C. 3 Come-and-Dance : Officer in command: see Commandant. 4 Insignia: Chevrons and • epaulets ; see stripes and shoulder liars. ; Ossifers: Corrupt for Officers. And into these cars they were piled; three hundred in the one half, and the remaining (which were a million) in the other. And they in each car were called a Company, as was lettered on cloth of purple and gold which fluttered without, and showed those who knew not that which was with ' .n. And before the nose of each great engine rested the Tiger, ensign of the travelers: and though it roared not, it had appear- ance and desire, for above it there was an Eat ' F_m Lp ; which later they did. And after a journey of half a day. they arrived, and took up their abode in a tented c ; ty. which was brown, and laid off as to streets. And it was one almighty peach of a place to stay in! For it was cold, and there were nether radiators by day. nor hot water bottles by night, nor warm bricks, nor anything that had aught but an abundant lack of heat. And on the afternoon of the second day of their stay, there occurred a battle which was called a Sham : for it was not. And the soldiers of the State were made as drums ; for they beat it ! And at the same time of the third day there occurred a marching to music, and the loud exercise of voice, and the extra dress and beanng of the Napoleons, and Roose- velts. and Huertas. And it was called a Parade of Dress: for they were clothed. And between times there was no gathering into companies, but each was allowed to do as he would: and m?ny were done, for they were strangers amid the crafty, and were easy prey. Then upon the fourth day, in the morning thereof, there occurred the Great Game. And the Tigers, who had hungered, avenged themselves, as had been proph- esied. And the conquered Gamecocks lost their vaunted pride, and were meek. And that night in the city there was held a great gathering of the warriors, and there was noise in abundance, and jubilee. But they of Carolina were silent, and crowed not : had the pip. And the day following was like unto the third day. And then upon the morning of the sixth day, there came the breaking up of the camp. And the warriors, weary as to spirit, left not as they had come: for they were broke. — McDonald Hetter of a Japanese djoolfcop D EAR HON. EDITOR: — Please allow liberty in your Taps book lo print a observe on a feature of your soldier lives, which are oulglaring. That feature are your excelsior detective system. It are with large pleasure I remark on the performs of Hon. Slone and Hon. Dukkat in the fatigue art of sleuthing. One day, I observe big quantity of boys slip softlike on trail lo river. Hon. detec- tives smell trouble. It appear to they that boys like rampage and bad achievement, so Hon. detectives follow behmdward at considerable remoteness. Now this detective force are good force, as proceeding show, but Hon. Slone are a trifle small, and exhaust too much quantity cigarets and dopes, and are not exaggerated in scruples. Hon. Dukkat are too big, and have tco much clumsy movement. He have too much noise about mouth region. But I must enlighten you concerning boys. Boys cross river on railroad structure, to large joy of Hon. detectives. Now they sit and snuggest way for capture of rampagers. Hon. Slone draft diagram. hen he conclude this, he hurl intoxicating tobacco from mouth, then use robust Sunday school word, and proclaim that boys will be caught like trap catch rats. Hon. Dukkat labor beneath terrible mental strain. He are unable to see through plan, and remark to Hon. Slone that plan are too intricate lo penetrate. Hon. Slone appear mad-like. He hurl tobacco wad from mouth, and attempt lo explain plan to Hon. Dukkat. Hon. Slone snuggest for Hon. Dukkat to journey down river to Ravenel Bridge, and act like sentinel, to interrupt passage of boys on return backward. He (Hon. Slone) must remain at post, where most strategy are sore in need. It look gloom-like for boys. It are winter time, and too cold for swim. Boys must have supper, yet they have disrelish for confinement and extra stuff they are serve so much. Now, after some big amount of lime elapse, Hon. Slone proceed to think concerning Brown s Mule. At about similar time, Hon. Dukkat, since he are very young and unsophisticated-like, commence thinking about sweet young girl back home, and he grow without care concerning duty and all else. Boys observe this circumstance with glad and rejoice look. Now there chance are come. With quick action, they launch boat afloat stream, and attain other bank in jiffy time. Boys then advance backward to college very quiet-like, and masticate supper. Hon. Slcne and Hon. Dukkat do sentinel stunt till big moon peep up and climb in sky to con- siderable altitude. It are very cold, and they shiver to large extent. Hon. Slone now have violent rage because boys appear such protracted loiterers. He give up, and journey to Hon. Dukkat, and snuggest a withdraw. Boys are been sleep long time when Hon. detectives commence returning back. They trudge with inert feet, and wear downcast-like feature. The hoot! hoot mournful dog howl are all the outcry that penetrate the night. Yc truly -J. L. C. ' 14 of scary American screech-owl and Hashimura Toco e 2 ; .,cUj St •« - - - - - VOL. i. ' .

Thou shalt have no other boss before me; even the Cap- tain of thy Company shalt bow down before me. Thou shalt not use the Rules and Regulations as thy authority for correctness; but what I say, that will be thy law. Thou shalt not yell Yabbo at me, nor at mine assistant, nor at my underlings; for I will surely find a way to have him shipped who breaketh this commandment. Selah! Remember the Sabbath day to go to church; for if thou faileth, many confine- ments or extras will be thy reward. From Sunday to Friday shalt thou labor, and do all thy work; but on the seventh day of the week, thou shalt prepare for Inspection, walk extras, and serve con- finements. Thou shalt honor and obey everyone at this place, yea even Edward Hunter; for if thou faileth to carry out this commandment to the letter, thou shalt be shipped from this place to which thy father has sent thee. Whenever thou cometh into my presence, thou shalt stand erect, and smite thy forehead with thy forefinger, as a token of respect that is due the All-Powerful. When I visit thee at night, thou shalt interrupt thy work, rise to thy feet, and uncover thy head in reverence of me. Thou shalt not get over fifty demerits in one term; for that one who getteth more shalt be cast into the Annex, where there is weeping and wailing and smashing out teeth. Thou shalt not covet thy superior ' s office, for if thy honey-funketh, in due time it wilt be given to thee. if, tf. }£, %. %• %. And when all the cadets had heard these words, they fell down upon their faces, rent their garments, and poured ashes upon the crowns of their heads.

Woods, hills, and streams, however fair, Will with the seasons fail the eye. And man with each revolving year Will change and pass unnoticed by. But tread on old historic ground. The hills which Calhoun traveled o ' er. There is a thrill unfelt before — A reverent awe falls slowly down And bears us back to days of yore, To him, whom glory gathers ' round. He held them dear, each dale and hill; And dear the rambling river ' s roar. In life ' s fierce heat, when vexed and sore, His spirit yearned for rest, but wiled It not, ' til work for a space was o ' er Then he homeward turned undaunted still. Then sacred be from day to day These scenes that mark his home in part. Time with his ceaseless stroke may start Upon his house a vile decay; But enthroned he is in every heart, And with a nation lives for aye! -W. J. H., ' 15 3n iflemonam 0n flying A Tirade by an Old Timer 4- AD are the times, and cursed are the days; For the impudent Freshmen just dare us to haze. Gone are the men who were tough to withstand The worst we could give with the first thing at hand ; And into their places are childish young whelps Who cringe at the paddle, and call with their yelps On the powers above to defend their weak frames From our brutal assaults; and hand in our names. That those whom by instinct we naturally hate M ' ght thus get a chance to retaliate. And soak us by law for the things we had done. Which were really a privilege and right, handed down To us who have suffered, by those gone before. And now we ' re being cheated from squaring the score. Why did you kick when the bayonet fell. And give the impression you were treated like ? Well, Couldn ' t you see, you babies in pants. If you took it this year, that next, your own chance Would come and forever permit you to say, I ' ve taken my dose, and by right can repay. With interest, my stripes and whippings galore ; For I ' ve thus earned the right to even the score? Now, like the fool whose headworks were loose. You ' ve broken the egg, and murdered the goose. And though you prance ' round in your silly Rat days. And grin at your uppers, when you know they can ' t haze. You ' ll regret it next year, when a hundred or more Grin in vour face, and vou can ' t even the score. — F. H.

Through thick and thin — mostly thin — we have stood the ravages of time and the Faculty. Out of the sixty-five men who entered Prep, in the Fall of 09, sixty have fallen by the wayside, and a quintet only is left to tell the tales of the King ' s roar and of the pleasant smiles of the Queen. As wc go from these walls of learning with our sheepskins, wc say good-bye to Prep., for The voice that once through ' Prepdom ' s ' walls The sound of terror spread, Will sound as loud on higher walls; For soon will Prep, be dead. — Historian k JOSIAH, JR..
