Class of William and lary niai ' ks ilii ' Lieginning of a new era. for this is the first organization of the kind, at William and Mary. To-day. I see before me the names and stalislies of four men — John Tyler. Billy Wrigglesworth, J. B. Terrell, and Ihe Historian, candidates foi- their master ' s degree wlio, five yeai ' s ago. wwr ushered into a new life, llow Ihey have occupied themselves during their stay at eollege is manifested in their works; consequently, the task of the Historian is short. They have had sorrows, they have had joys; they have had failures, they have had success; which is (rue life, for all life is a comparison, and withmit the hardshi]is, smooth sailing would mean failure. But they have diiink deep at the Pierian font; and sweet were the last draughts, for can ymi draw a jiicture more attractive than one in which the occupant stands upon the threshold of an undiscovered tielil with all of its ornate lieauties, beckoning the abmit-to-lie invader into its glorious laln ' rinths where there is a possibility at least of stories and ideas being finished and satisfied? Enough for the idea of research. But would it be saying too much to add that they are equipped with the |)hilosophy of religion and the ))hilosophy of life? If that be so, then they are valiuilile citizens and the praise is to our Alma Hater. They realize the value of high ideals and of social service and appreciate educational efforts. They, by now, have dealt sutliciently in the stock of humanity to com- prehend its constituents and to know their relative positions. But says Portia, If to do were as easy as to know what were good to do, chapels would have been churches and poor men ' s cottages palaces. ' ' Plere it is no small comfort to say knowledge comes but wisdom lingers, and it is this fact after all that satisfies the human mind. Knowledge slips away while wisdom and discriminat ion make the difference between heaven and eai ' th. ' I ' liey have learned in the words of Herhart that the wants of the future man must l)e incorporated into the teachings of children. They are nu ' n who are free from bonds of jirejudict ' . whose minds arc o|)en to receive the truth regardless of its source because the inti ' lligeiit love of right has made them so. However, it is not the intention of the Historian to mislead anyoiu ' in regai-il to the character of these men: gi ' anting, thougli. that the ' are serious fellows, let us examine a few facts. f(u- the smallness of the class and the close fellowship will permit this with impunity. If luy prophetic pen were indulged to the extent of allowing one gue s as to the future occu|)ation of these men. I would ay teaching. Whatevi ' r their occupation niav be. tui-n backward for a few years and recall an occasion when you met John Tyler in the College hall with knee trousers and number nin( shoes and say you refrained from asking those shoes liei-c they were carrying that boy. and see what the class says.

Still {jreater was tlio surprise when the fact heeanie known that the same gentleman was ileelared the winner of the William Barton IJofrers Seholarshi]), thus entitling him to the |)rivilege of a year ' s work at the Boston School of Technologv. So we might continue to reveal the evolution of this man. hut lack of space and time necessitates our hastening on to one .1. B. Terrell, th( distinguished man of college affairs. To him was awarded the Final Orator ' s icdal of l!)0;3-04; the l.iterarv .Magazine Prose :Me(lal of 1904-0.-). and Final Dehater ' s ledal of IDO.I-Od; so, von will not be sur|)rised to know thai lie reiiresenteil William and Mary at the State Oratorical Contest in f!)l).-)-0(i. l.ast ses. ion Dr. (larrett found he needed an assistant in Chemistry and I ' liysics, which position settled on . . B.. illustrating the old familiar adage that some have greatness thrust ii|;oii them. Ilowevc ' r, Dr. (Jarrett was so w-ell pleased with J. B. s work that he had him made Associate-Professor the following session, and now there only remains a thesis to be handed in by him before he will be declared a Master of Arts. In lOO. ' j-Ot; the associate T.itei-ary editorship of The Coloxi.vl Echo came to this man. which was filled so admirably that it necessitated his being elected Editor-in-chief of Ttie Coi oxiAL Eciro — wdiicli position he now occupies and in which jjosition ilic Historian will leave him, for having climlied to this, your imagination can furnish you witli some idea as to his accoiiipli liment between the acts. Finally we turn to V lv Wrigglesworth. ■ ' Xoiie knew thee but to love thee. Xone named thee but to i)raise. ' (ientle, w-isc, enthusiastic boy. has occu])ied every position in the gift of the students, yet his meek and unatVeclcd grace remains. He does not believe in advertising, a ])rinciplc ipiite contrary to our times, yet none the less discredited on that account. What you find out about him conies through your own research, for wdiich you may consider well invested time, the last of your work being the best. When Billy gi-aduated last year, as president of the class, a local philosopher, not knowing that lie would return, remarked. Some one will have a good teacher this year. So the story inins. aiul, if all were told, would C(mtinue indefinitely: hut if you have formed some faint idea as to the ability of these men, then the work of the Historian has been accomplished. If the meed of praise be too great, say the fault is mine and let it stand, for in four years of close acquaintance, shortcomings are more than balanced by common ties: so, if you are not answered, you will wait for experience or never know. 16 ®0 (E br? O many are the smilinj;. laughing eyes; O many are the cheeks with blushes fair; And many are the curving lips and red ; And many are the locks of waving hair. But smiling eyes alone are tiresome tilings: And blushing cheeks are wearisome. I think; And curving lips and waving locks! Ah. no! ' Tis not to tliese alone that I would drink. Vet, maybe. 1 would drink a toast to tliese; For now it seems such things most fair can be; Yes. drink to eyes and blushes, lips and hair. But eyes and bluslies. lips and hair of thee. — G. O.

' (IT, and then reemd the aceonijdishments and aeliievunionts of that class from tliat iiiiiiortant event to tlie jiresent time, then the composition of this jjapcr wouhl indeed he an easy matter. But as the histoi ' y ot this class is not of the class eidlectively liut of each and every nienihei- of the class in his relation to it. and as the history of each of these gentlemen is locked secure against my designs, the llistoi ' ian feels himself almost ineapahic of performing his task. Or. if this weic a history of men who had ]iassed through lite victorious and great, the Historian wnuld willingly emhrace his duty. Kul it is not — it is the history td ' men who, I ' ai- from haxing passed through life. ha e just entered it. hen they entereil College they hegan the second period in theji- lives: the period of life-work. The student when he prepares his first lectiii-e has entered this period as much so as the hoy who performs his first task in the husiness in which he is engaged. The diiference between the two is that the hoy who goes straightway to business enters active life, while the college man enters a life devoted to education for activity — not education complete and infallible, but education which we choose to call the primer of success. Our class has passed through this stage; and its members now stand upon the threshold of life ready and eager to begin the long and bitter struggle. They are answering the national call, which is raised from every pursuit in life, — the call for young, live, educated Americans. Because this is a history of such characters is the reason wdiy it is so difficult to write. I am really unable to liegin. 1 hardly know whether first to consider those amorous youths of the class whose entrance into this city might lie likened to the entrance of a hive of bees into a garden of flowers, so speedily did they become enamoured with the alluring representatives of Yemis nearby; or, on the other hand, to give first honors to those whose admiration for Bacchus has on some few rare and lamentable occasions quite exceeded their discretion, .ludging. however, from the starts of some id ' my classmates at the mention of lovely Venus, and the starts of some at the mention of dear Bacchus, and the starts of some at the mention of both, 1 fear if 1 continue further along this liiU! I shall incur their displeasure. Theoretically, says the wag, we were born as a class in the fall of IIKK!, but in reality, many years before. Be that as it nuiy, the fact that the class was born is not to be disputed — 190;l being used as the date only for its appropriateness. Facts relating to the actual bii ' tb of the class, it must be confessed, are rather obscure, and the whole excnt has an atmosphere of doubt around it. However, the records show Ihal in liHi;? eighty-li e or ninety masses of ' ' green shapeless matter entered the halls of William and lary. Tluuigh the many attempts that were made at organization proved futile, it is to these i}henoniena, veritable crystals of ignorance, that we owe our existence as a class. And more remarkable, these were the immature substances, Dues, from which have evolved the finished and polished products, Seniors. 27 ()ii ilif niiii ' ii to Ciillr:. ' !

One little aecnstonied to i-ollege life might well ask in gazing around a college campus, who those heings were, who, i;o ned in Mack and with square- topped caps on their heads, paced slowly and solemnly up and down the campus walks. To such a ])erson these ])ersonages might seem worthy (d ' well-nigh reverence. Hut to the mie who has accompanied thes|.

He can reuKunher when this Senior was far from being the finished speaker, when this one Inul not sung his first lyric, wlien this one had not planned his first campaign, and this one was not so versed in Cupid ' s lore. But because he can remember the Senior when he was in his primitive, aboriginal state, duchood, and can recognize the transformation that has taken place, we claim and receive his admiration. To him that certain refinement of the Senior, which characterizes his everv action, that polish of education, the result of the evolution which has occurred in four long-shoit years, is worthy of admiration, knowing, as he does, the stages that were pa.ssed thi(uigh in its attainment. . nd so the class graduates.

Knowing myself to be neitlu ' r a prophet nor tlu ' son of a ])ro])li( ' t, 1 trendileil at the great and super- human task which liad been thi-u,-t u|ion uie. I realized the great responsibility and my utter inabilily to ilel c iiUo the tuture lives of my waiting comrades. And as 1 sat among them, thinking of how the Druid priest was given the sublime power of presaging the ruin (d ' priestiue lionie : and bow the ancient prophets foretold of a new creation, 1 began to feel still moi ' e my insignificance. I tested my vision and found that its compass was limited, and I knew that all elfort would be futile without some superhiinum aid. But I must presage the destiny of these men I How can 1 do it? All the time my rellow-laborers were growing more restless to know their fate. 1 i iiseil my eyes towards the great arc light above us, but it told me nothing. I wondereil vigorously. To be sure, we must have disturbed the sleeping dead beneath us, for, just at this moment, a strange apparition entered our midst, liearing the likeness of i ' eyton Randolph. He drew from out a dingy quiver a saljer more brilliant and magic than Excalibor, and, in tones more divine than human, he spoke: ' (Jrapple tliis to thy breast so tliat no one may wrest it from thee, and, when thou hast departed unto thyself, thou shall see visions: and after many days thou slialt come again unto tlie e tli comi-adcs and tell them what things thou liast seen and done. I took the sparkling saber and lash d it to my bosom and departed into a secret place, as the strange visitor had commanded. Immediately I felt a wonderful change coming over me. And, as if held by some magic power, my thoughts blended into infinity, and I beheld both past and future. The things which 1 saw were amiwing, and filled me with botli joy and sorrow, for many of my former opinions were reversed and many of my hopes were fulfilled. . .lthough I beheld many things of which I had never dreamed before and which the world knew not of. and altliouuh my prospective was one of incommen- surable extent. I was able to limit my Hying thoughts to a hitherto dark and unknown future. After 1 had thus beheld the wliole scope of existence, and desired to see and know the future of my individual college mates, at my own command everything about me was covered with darkness. Then quickly there appieared before me a magnificent scene which seemed to depict the life in some great city. I took one .step toward the beautiful ]iicturc that T might better understand and appreciate its 30 grandeur: and immediately T fnimd myself pas sing down a great street, as only one among tiiousands, who were wending their way towards a great Iniildiiig. Feeling somewhat amazed witli my surroundings. I began to quest itni some of the maddened throng as to what this great eonimotion meant. I was told thai the city was Washington, the ea])ital of the United States, and that it was the day for the inauguration of the president. Considering myself very fortunate, I managed to forge my way through the multitude until I came near the place from which was to lie delivered the inaugural address. The demonstration of national spirit and the wilil enthusiasm over the election ran so high that 1 made no attempt to ascertain the name of the president, but. with eager eyes. I waited patiently to see the chief of the great country. Soon he appeiired : and the sound of the great bands, mingled with the tumultuous shouts that greeted him, would have drowned the thunders of tlie wildest tempest. In a few moments all was quiet, and the president began to address his countrymen. His voice, which rose and fell with a peculiar cadence, and which gave force to his impassioned eloquence, sounded familiar. Is it possible that I have heard it before? I murmured to myself. And. with a burning desire to satisfy my rising curiosity. T made a desperate struggle to approach nearer to the man upon wlmm the m riad eyes were fi.xed, and 1 recognized beneath the long black beard the face of our class president, George Oscar Ferguson. After hearing and seeing all tiiis, I began to rejoice in the fact that I bad heen permitted to live the future, and was determined to clasp the hand of my now honored friend. I beckoned to a guard wdio was standing near and asked him to conduct me to the White House. This he did : and when I entered this veritable garden of roses and ferns, which was made all the more beautiful by the countless diamonds and pearls, who should I meet but another one of my old cla.ssmates, a member of the cabinet, Alfred Thomas Hope. I could go no further; for, verily, I was amazed at the success of my comrades. I was not surprised, however, for, when I began to recount the early achievements of this body, T remembered that he too had been a great expounder of jiarliamentary law in the old Philo- mathean, and also how he had won the esteem and confidence of his fellow staidents as a man of integrity and liomir. While I was thus engaged with this old friend, drinking in every word that fell friini his lips about his jjolitical career, and while he was informing me alinut a great reform which his majesty was contemplating, a sudden darkness again fell upon us and robbed me of the pleasure which T fain would have enjoyed longer. I felt as though 1 had assumed a peculiar shape, and all the time the darkness seemed tn grow denser and denser around me. In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, there tla. bed before me another scene more beautiful than the first. So gloriously magnificent was it that words to describe it would seem only as mocking cymbals. Where can this earthly paradise lie? said 1 in silent admiration. And instantly, as if in answer to my (piestion, T was ]u-ojected 31 into anndu ' i ' cily. wliicli was n v with I hi- hurly-lniriy of Ijusiiic.-s aiiil pt ' oplc iMishinj, ' to and I ' l ' o. as only propU ' of a i;rcat in( ' ti ' o]iolis ilo. Not knowing just what omirsc to ])iirsiu ' . 1 stationed myscU ' against tlie wall of a groat edifico ami gazt ' d down wliat a])|ioart ' d to l f tlio nuiin thorouglifarc of this tiiagiiilicent c-ity. Wliile 1 thus stood, cxeitt ' d and bi ' wildci ' cd willi nunuTous tilings that came Ijeforc my vision, I cast my eye across the street and saw, posted in front of tlie Dome Theater, New York, an advertisement: ' The TTeart of An Indian, ' the greatest drama of modern ages, by I . C. Lindsley. P urning with tlie desire to sei- the play of uiy poet classmate, I went imnrediately toward the ticket office, to secure a seat in the great auditorium. .Just as I entered tlie door, sonu ' one clapped me on the hack, and said. Hello I oM fellow, what are you doing here? 1 whirii ' il around and found myself l)efore a distinguislied-looking gentlenuin, wearing a long coat and a silk hat. After regaining consciousness from the shock of the unexpected sahite. I recognizetl the gentleman to he another of the illusn-ious Class of ' 07, Sir Archer Blackwell. Knowing that he had a very lucrative position. 1 began to make sonic queries as to his business. And with his old-time air of modesty, he told nie tliat he was professor of liotany in Columbia I ' niversity. Again. I was not surprised: for. I tliought of tlie familiar jiroverb, A man must follow his natural bent, ' ami T reniembcred how lilack. while at college, was found analyzing strawberries l) lln ' moonlight. I felt a desire to see some others of my former classmates when instantly, in answer to the wish, the scene before me melted .suddenly into a misty haze and then to dull, grey clouds which swirled before my face, becoming each moment darker, until an impciiet ralile gloom, as thick and dark as the Egyptian night, settled around me. Suddenly it broke with a blinding tla.sh of light; and what a ])icture spread out liefore my eyes I A long, dusty, red clay road ran deviously before me. Off in the fields 1 could see farm houses scattered, with long, crooked lanes leading to the road. Everything was (piiet and still; the cpiivering heat rose from the hot road and the liaked plowed fields, and once in a while a miniature ' whirlwind swept the dust and trash up in little runnel-slia]ic(l clouds. A team of dejected but very patient-looking mules came plodding down the road, pulling a big, red lumber wagon, and as they walked their long cars drooped and tlajiped like the huge straw hat which almost hid the head and shoulders of the driver. It was too hot and tiresome to walk far on that red. dusty road, so I waited and asked for a ride in the big, red wagon. Coin to the store? ciueried the driver. Yes, I answered, not knowing what else to say; and after I was sealed beside him I a.sked, Wio runs it ' ■ ' Zacliary. he rejilied. Zachary? said 1, for tlu ' name sounded strangely familiar. 32 Yep, rctiiriii ' il in coinjianioii. (IvawiiiL;- a (Icep liri ' atli. After takinj: a lar ro eliew of toliacci).

And he g ' lve hi.s knee sueli a resounding slap that th( mules, startled and awakened from their walking slee]i, broke into a trot. We came suddenly around another turn in the road, and T saw a dilajiidated, weather-beaten building, with a faded sign hung across the i-oad. creaking on its rusty hinges and beafing the following legend : Geo. E. Zachakt, CrENKliAI. M I ' liCITANDlSE. You went to college with Zachary didn ' t you? I asked. Yes, said Eansone, and there is another of the hoys here this year. Brother Young was sent to this circuit l)y the last Jlethodist Conference, and — ■ Methodist! 1 gaspecl. Yes, he re|)lied. yiui see Mrs. Young converted him. as he had a leanins: to the Methodists anyhow, and now he is holding a in-otraeted meeting down here at the red school bouse, lie ' s a powei-fnl pxhortcr. I was lost in amazement and wonder. In a few minutes more we ilrew up before the icd school house which was jammed full of ])eople. all giving most careful attenli(ui to the S])eaker. The stentorian voice of l?rother Young reaebeil me, e en in llie middle of the road, and as liis arms waved wildly over the heads of his congregation 1 i-augbt a glimpse of his red, perspiring face and recogni zed my old classmate Hrigham, otherwise known as 11. 11. Young. Mr . Young was seated at the (U-gan and some way her face looked .strangely familiar. I was inclined to believe that 1 had .swn her, too. whih ' at college hut, i)ei-hai)s, being somewhat bewildered hy my strange exi)eriences. I was mistaken. 1 wished to slay and listi ' U to the remarkaldc cxlKU ' tation of my old cla.ssniatc but the mules, strange to say, became suddenly very restive under the sjiell of his awe-inspiring voice so that Ransone found it impossible to hold them and the - i-an foi- se eral miles at a hreakneck s]H ' ed. 33 Wlion. lit Iciiiitli. {ho mules wcrr sli)|i|)fil, 1 ciiiild sri ' liv IJaiisotu ' V race tlial sdiiictliiiiff was wmiif;. • Wlu ' rc are we?

Thev were quieted soon hut we still heard a ratlliiiu ' and iiuliinj; ' somewhere. As it .seemed to c-onic from out of the pines in front of us, we drove through them to tlie other side and eame across a great force of men working a steam-shovel, making a great cut through a high hill to the valley beyond. A group of young, pretty girls were there watching also and seemi ' d to he under the eare of a well- dressed, intellectual-looking gentleman with whom I soon began to talk, lie in- formed me that he was the princiiial of a well known girls ' school in a luarby city, and that as this was one of the most .stupendous feats of engineering of the century, ln ' had brought his girls out to see it. And. he |)roudly added, the engineer who planned and has charge of this great work is an old college claim of mine, .John Tvler. It was true. 1 soon saw .Inlm direi-ling his men. but he was too busy to talk to us. One of Somers pupils, a sweet dark-eyed little girl, had hi ' en regarding nie curiouslv anil now she eame up and iiiti ' oduced herself. She was a Jliss lOllis, daughter of my old friend and classmate. Tyler Klli;-. and she insisted on my speiiiling the iiexl day at her home in the city. 1 couldn ' t rcd ' use such an invitation, so 1 went back with I ' nd ' . Sinners and h ' s crowd of school girls, arriving late that afternoon at the magniticent home of our friend Tyler Ellis, who was now the wealthiest banker of the city. Led liy my fair little hoste.ss I entered the drawing room where I fmind to my astonishment not only Ellis, but thi-ee more of my classmates: John ilolivid Boweu, who was the editor and publisher of the great citv daily: Hon. .1. F. Happy J(mes, formerly commonwealth ' s attorney of the (■(Uiniv. bill niiw a eaiulidate for Congress, and the liight l!ev. Charming Charlie Ihirkee, the rector of the city Episcopal Church. So completely amazed was I over what seemed to be a reunion of old friends, that 1 liegan to make some further iniiuiries aliotit this delightful though unexpected meeting. I found that Bowen was a strong advocate of Jones, and that they were both there to consult hanker Ellis, who was also a strong support of Jones and who was advancing money for the su]iport of the cani]-aign. As for Durkee, he was making his regular calls to the members of his church, and, as was his custom, had just stumViled in for a few moments. I might have enjoyed a most delightful evening with my old classmate-, but as soon as I had greeted them and learned this much about them, little Jliss Ellis, in a misc hievous moment, handed me a box of .sneezing powder wdiich 1 innocently snutfed to her great anuisement and my misfoi ' tune. For, in the violent fit ol sneezing that followed, the whole scene melted and drifted in large pieces like interrogation points and 1 found myself, when 1 awoke, sitting on a bench in the chajjel still sneezing vigorously and very much hewildcMi ' d.

In fancy sailing in that shallop named Success, and drifting on. forever on I ' ntil we anchored in the port of dreams. One evening ' mong tlio.se liills. beside the lake 1 wandered all alone, for I was tired .And weary of the world and ils tiiimilt. I cared for nothing but to be alone. . lone with Silence and the Autumn Woods. How awful is the silence of those woods When autumn comes; no sound nor noises lireik The solemn stillness, only here and there The gentle rustle of the falling leaves Dislurb.s the puetude.

Conceit and Sellishness which tend to make The baser man. .Vnd tlius I walke.l and mused. One night I saw upon the stage a play: . woman old and rag.ui ' d. and her face Sharp and pimdied with hiuigi ' r. her slender fiu ' iii Swaying from sheer exhaustion, and her steps Slow and wearisome, and her nuiub ' d hands (!ras|)ing an old frail stick, a scant support I ' nto her totfring form. . s on she trudged . niid the falling snow-llakes and the drifts Her steps grew feebler, she totter ' d. fell Face downward in a snow-drift and there lay •Slill and mip|ionlc s and coM. Then came ' far The faint jingling of slcij;li-bclls and the sound Of UKury laughter on the frosty air; A cutter driven by the King himself Came swiftl y onward, drawn by royal steeds; .And he beheld (he uoinan in the snow, 35 Anil iLaltin ' . liflvd iip I lie lriulcr tdiiii Into ilie cutler, wiiippi ' d Iut close urounil Willi royal furs, and liaslcnin : to the town Bade tlie kind nurses of St. Mary ' s take Tlic peasant woman and restore lier life.

At the wretched sijrlit Of the poor woman falling in the snow Still and motionless, on her nninded arms She bowed her jeweled hcail. I heard a soli . nd saw a kerchief wi])e away a tear. Jloonlight to-nii;ht. the curtain now has dropped For the last time. She ' rose and with the rest Kmeri;ed into the moonlifjht and the snow. Besi le the o|)era door a heitfrar };irl, Thinly clad and quiverin r with the c(dd And features pinched with cold and hunj;er. licld Out for scant alms her little tremhlinj; hand.

' Twas thus I mused, And as I mused I drojiped upon a heaj) Of brown and yellow leaves, piled ' gainst a bank Of ferny luxury, stretched forth my limbs To seek rejxise awhile. There came a breath Of sweetness and of coolness from the lake And ever and anon, a scarlet leaf Would flutter like some gentle spirit down And lay against my forehead. 1 reclined At peace from all the world, on Nature ' s breast, A couch as soft as softest eiderdown. A couch which kings might envy. As I lay, 1 sank into light slumber for the space Of scarce a moment and I dreamed this dream. It may have been my fancy, not a dream. 1 will not say for certain that I slept ; But over me I felt a faintness creep And I seemed wafted to some m.vstic isle Of flowers and of fragrance, lilies bowed Their snowy heads in homage to the rose. . nd from the countless streams came the jierfume Of the bhie lotus Hower and all the air 36 Wiis tn ' iiuilims witli such music as could come.

U v at tliat lime ibey knew neither themselves nor each other. They had eome fnini eniinlry anil city, rmm the shor ' s of the Atlantic to the green hills of N ' irginia. Dnriiig these thre ' years, we have learned i stand shoulder to shoulder and In lend a liclpini; hand to Ihosc ' about us, in our toilsome ascent of life ' s ladder. hi recortling the history of the class for the past year, we are unable on account of lime and space to give a detailed account of the many achievements of each mendjcr of the class, yet our history would lie incom])lele if we did not record some of the more important ones. Our football team covered itself with glorv. bul had it not bt ' en For the strenuous elTorts of laediuiald. i)() (dls, G. A. and (i. A. li., and Carter, the football warriors of the class, it would not have been as successful as it was. As a reward for the good work wliich these men dill, the class was honored with the captaincy for next year, in the person of G. A. Dovcll. The class also had a basket-ball cajitain among its numbers and the same mend)er has been elected to the same ])osition for next year. Baseball is in full swav and sullice it to say, the Class of 1!H)S will be represented by men who will reflect credit upon their class and College. We have discovered among our numljer during llie past year, several men who bid fail ' to add honcu- and fame to their class. In this age, we read and hear much about the Strenuous Life. The president of our country has become one of its leading exponents. But we do not have to look beyond the limits of our own class to find a person who ranks with our president as an exponent of this Strenuous Life, and that person is none other than Channing Hall. In the classroom as well as iipon the diamond and gridiron, we have become famous. Although we are not so fortunate this year in having a representative in the facult} yet lln ' day is not far distant when we expect to see G. A. B. Dovcll occupying the chair of Inspired Poetry, in the department of English. Dame Eumor has it, that E. F. Shewmake is to bo a candidate for the presi- dency of the Virginia Senate next fall. He has made such an enviable reputation as a presiding officer at public meetings, during the year, thai the Phoenix rmg has decided to launch his bomb for this high office. Politics has been the favorite study of so many meml)crs of the class, that we feel that these worthy men deserve a little attention. One of our leading politicians is S. A. Macdonald. Mac has been a polilieal leader ever since he entered college, and was affiliated rith the political bosses, but this year he became dissatisfied with them and decided to form a party of his own, for the 42 purpose oL ' ])iiriryiii, ;- class politics. We re.mvt io say that liis |iar(y. tlioiioh not successful in defeat iii : ' llie parly of tlie boss ' s in tlie class election, made a very creditable beginning. We have mentioned the athlete, (loi ' t. politician and statesman, vet should your Historian fail to iiieiitiini the other types of men represented in this cla.ss, he wouhl not bo fullilling the duty assigned to him. Beside the ahove. we have in our class those who aspire to be artists ' models, great iin. ' iilin-s, tempei-ancc advocates, and last, but not least, those wlio hope to ( ' hristiaui e the world with their latest doctrines in Theology. Patient reader, our task is dene. .Vs the curtain falls upon this our third scene in the draiiui of life, we would fain draw on our imagination and ]U ' ophesy for the future, but we leave tliat task- lor one whose far-seeing powers are keener than ours. We are sorry to say that when the session ends, there will be some of our number who will leave our laidvs to join tlie struggling throng on the ocean of life. JMay tliey in future years turn back with memory ' s tears to the dear old college days spent beneath the sacred walls of our dear old Alma Mater.

Many think that it is tlie historian who make- history, hut this is erroneous, for all of us as individuals are the makers of historv h.v our everv word and action, and it is the part of the historian to record these facts; and as llislorian of this class, I feel lii-hly honored to record tlie varicMJ achievements of its memliers and ihe worthv jirogress of the entire cdass. When we returned to ( ' (dlege last Septi-mlier we were not bloodthirsty, idle Sophs ' as our former Historian predicted, hut as studious men, .Iclermiiied upon doing what we could for our Alma Mater— wliethev in the class room or on the athletic field. Of course there were some who could not uiiderstaiKl the imaginary triangle, the deponent Latin verb and the philosophy of English analysis, but even these have briilged these diliiculties by serving their lectures as Alexander did the Ciiordian Knot. The So]ihomore Class is well represented in nearly every |ihase of college life, from the faithful student down to the sport. On the gridiron last fall we were represented by Hall and Taylor on the ' varsity, and Driver, Small and Terrell were on the second teaiii. Oriver. Smith. Hall, J. ! .. and Small are making good records on the basket-ball team, and are good representatives in this branch of athletics. Although it is too early to n-cord our achievements in baseball, yet it is safe to say that the Sojihomore Class will be well represented. The Sophomores are thoroughly in sympiathy with the Y. M. C. A. work. Some of its most enthusia,4ic members and si ' veral memliers of its cabinet are from our class. We must not fail to mention the calico sinui. wlio. wlide the Last T ose of Summer was shedding its petals, returned to College, liringing with him those gentle thoughts of love, and has found in Ye . neient Capital new hearts for his wooings. Messrs. Bell. AVe.st and Yancey represent the Sophomore Class in this phase of t ' ollege life. The Soiihoiiiore Class is ably repivseiited in bolli Ihei ' ary societies, and even lloti ' toiirl is sonietimes aroiiid fidin his ipiiet vigil and a smile jia.sses over lii.= time-worn countenance as lie listens to the convincing logic and magic oratory of the Sophomore, as it lloals from the l ' li(eiii and Philoiiiathean windows and is borne along on the bosom ol the night air. Numerous other spheres of colle ;e activity could be mentioned in which the Sophomore is engaged. I ' m- they are conspiciiou.- in nearly every pliasi ' ol 49 pollojio life, save turiiionting the iiiidcr c-la.-siiirii. ainl thai ur lia c Icfl I ' oi- olliors W ' lio arc oldiT than wc, for otlicrs, ' Far wiser than v. Thus ends a l)rii ' f history of the Sophomore Class of liml. May we earh. as lis nu ' nihers, ever elierish the fond associations ami swei l nienioi-ies which siii ' i ' mind it as we would a mother ' s prayer. And when wc arc scattered on the jjreal and treacherous sea of life, with self as helmsman and scdl ' as crew, then it is tliat another hi.-torian t d e his jicn anil records our hi-tm-y. wlu ' thcr wc are sailing successfully on with fearless hearts and determined wills, m- whether we are dt ' S])icahle wrecks drifting with the tide.

Vou know the tinu — that pei-iod in May lietweeii the elosiiiii- of the liaschall season and the heu-innini; of liiiai exams. That is the season, when e erythiiif;- seems at its hest. that many a man wlm has decided n leave foi- i;ii(id with the close of the session, falls in hive, and, as ahove staled, makes u|i his numl tn i-etui-n in the fall. It may he that he falls in lo e with the faculty, the Collej e steward, the Colleoe in uenci-al. the weather, the dear old town. or. what is more jirohahh ' . with some fairei- an l far woithier ohject of his affections, hut the |ioint is that if he will but look around him he is sure to yield to one, if not all. of the inlhiences named. And that is what aeeoitnts for the n iniber of men who go on allendinct College here year after year until either detaineil at liome and I ' ei ' ccd to work by their relatives and friends, or expressly forbidden by the faculty to return. But to return to our story. It was late of an afternoon at the time of the year menticuied ; the elo.sing of an ideal day. On one of the benches hard by the time-worn statue of tlie good Baron de Botetourt three men were .seated, a Freshman, a Sophomore, and a Post Grad. man. Spi-awled 071 the gra.ss nearby. in various positions niost conducive to bodily comfort, were two more Freshmen and two more Sophomores. All were smoking, with the exception of the Freshman on the bench, and he couldn ' t smoke — having promised his teaelier at home, whose prize English pupil he luul been, that he would never smoke until he became a Junior. The other two Freslimen were smoking vile American-made cigaretles. for the usual reason, whatever it may be, that so many Freshmen do smoke tliem. The two So])homores were smoking pipes because they wauled to. and the Post Grad. man was smoking a cigar; It was a long, strong cigar of the bi-unetle type and had been presenteil to its present owner by a nierehant down town, for the usual reason, whatever it may be, that local merchants do sometimes give such cigars to I ' ost Grad. men and Seniors and — others. The Post (irad. man was talking. It was right and pro])er that he should be talking, if he cared t , and it was both meet and right that the others should be listening; for this was the Post Grad. man ' s sixth year at William and Mary ' and he wa.s a wise man. ILis was the usual story, lie had failed to get his degree in four years, had secured it in five, had acquired the habit of coming back, and was now eiitei ' ed on the record as being a candidate for the degree of M. A. . nil in these six years he had done much: the strenuous football, the spectacular basi ' ball. the decc])tive high-ball, and the brilliant Final Ball had each and all received his attention in their respective seasons and his store of experience was large, if his store of knowled ' je was not. ■■.Now tiiat rt ' iniiuls me of a ipiccr tiling thai liajipencd licre oiiL-e, lie . romarkod, with a wave of tlie cigar in tlie ilireetion of the gvninasiuni, whence a solitary fignrc, hatless and chid in a long, tan raincoat and I ' unning shoeu, and carrying a satchel, was seen hurrying toward the Taliaferro Hiiiiding. A party of tourists, having just entered the gate and starti l u|i the walk, threatened to prove an interruption l)ut, smelling the cigar, they changed their course and went round hy the Bralferton, leaving the Tost (irad. man free to continue liis narrative without let or hindrance. ■■|l was live years ago this coining Finals. he resumed, ■ tiiat the thing occurred. I didn ' t learn all the particulars until last summer and there may be a few ]K)ints yet on which 1 am not clearly informed, but I ' ll give you tlie stoi-y as I know it and from it you can judge for yourselves wlial (|ue( ' r things will hap] en sometimes to jirove the truth of the old Turkish saying which, when translated, means. ' Tliere ' s many a slip twixt llie cu|) and the li]). ' The former prize J ' ]nglish pupil sliuddercd and seemed about to s])eak Init was quelled by a look and a majestic wave of the cigar, while the narrator continued : Of course none of you knew John lieed. Well, you missed something; for .lolin Keed was a good fellow, even if lie did get a little absent-minded at times. He took his degree that June. It was the finishing touch to a splendid college career, and he had bright prospects ahead, along all lines. lost of those jirospects he is fast realizing, and we will hear big things of John some day, but his prospects matrimonial were rudely shattered, and it is of their shattering that this little yarn has to do. Xow be it known that John Itei ' d was in love. Xoi just the regulation kind of so-called love that we see all too nuu-h of. and that ends with the college session, but the real article that makes a man brace up and behave himself and work hard. And the lady in question was well worthy of his regard, or any one else ' s for that matter — as sweet a liit of calico as ever rooted for the wrong team at a football gan e or broke an engagement at a German. I .shall not try to describe her to you and it ' s none of your business who she was, and indeed still is. Suffice it to sav that .she only visited here and that she was a mighty sweet little lady; and you must also keep in mind the fact that John was a devilish good fellow, though, as 1 said, he was a little absent-minded at times. John was compelled to leave for home on the morning after the Final Ball, and, as he lived a long way and wanted to know how much he had to live for before he left, he proposed on the night of the Ball, seriously and ' for keeps. ' She was probably rather startled, not at the suddenness of the thing so much as at its seriousness. At all events she didn ' t tell John anything positive right then, hut told him that she would meet the train on which he was to leave in the morning and would give him his answer then. A rather freakish way to do. of course, and John wanted to wait a day at least, but no, he must go in the morning, 58 and slie would giw liiiii his answer at tlie depot, or not at all; and tlms niatlors stood when the Final Hall ended at half al ' ter four in the iiiornini;-. ' ■.lolin ' s room was nexl to mine, on the second llixir Taliaferro. an l I heard him jiacking his trtiidN and hi lHiiL; t himself when 1 eame in. lie eaine into mv room and asked me il ' I would mind huvina his tieket ami having his trunk cheeked to Kiehmiuid (we were going that far together) in the morning as he would need all of his time at the depot. 1 thought it a little i|ueei ' , hut. kI ' course, agreed and. aftei- ]iutting mir trunks in the hall, where the di-ayman could get them early in the mnining ithiiul disturhing us, we went tn ]iri and to sleep. The train for li ' ichiuiuid left then, as now. at 10:47. Mx alarm woke me at ten anil 1 was soon ri ' ady to bid farewell f(ir the summer to m imkiu. I called John as 1 went out and he answered that he would come ri.iiht im. I si(i|iped on mv way down for a lunch and then went right on ti) the depul. i-eaching there about ten minutes to train time. Somewhat to my surjirise 1 saw .lnhn nowheri ' . but 1 did find, among the usmil ' good-bye crowd ' of students and others, a little lady who, as 1 noticed at tlu ' time, blushed very prettily as she asked me if I had seen ' Jlr. Keed. ' Of e(UMse 1 told her that I had just left him saying that he would follow me: that I had just bought his ticket and cheeked his trunk to Richmond; and that 1 expected to see him at any nunute. Well, the train came in (ui time and half the crowd got aboard while the other half waved and shouted at th ' m and there was much shaking of hands. And among those wdio remained at the statimi was a pretty little lady with a very white face, who was wondei ' ing where Mr. Reed ' could possibly be. The seat 1 took was on the olf side from the depot, and as 1 put iii - lu-ad out of the window for a last look around before leaving for the summer, i noticed a queer-looking figure climbing into the baggage car, on that side. And the hatless figure was clad in a long, tan raincoat and running shoes and was carrying a satchel, jiist like that chap we saw going tow ' ard the Taliaferro a few minutes ago. We hadn ' t gone a mile before a jiorter came in tlie car and called my name. I answered and he told me that a ' gemmau ' in the baggage car wauled to see me, qii.irh-. I followed him into the baggage car and there, perched on a trunk and chid in a suit of ])ink pajamas and a long, tan raincoat and I ' uuuing shoes, looking the very incarnation of misery and despair, sat John liccil. 1 liardly knew whether to laugh or to weep. He was at once the saddest and the most comical-looking indi idual I lia e ever seen. I started to speak, thnngh I (bHi ' l know what 1 wnuhl lia c said, when he almost wailed, ' Give me the check to this infernal trunk, so can get some clothes. ' Then, while the liaggajic man went behind a pile of trunks to laugh, .lohn oj)ened the trunk and smin he was once more ' clothed auil in his i-ighl mind, ' sitting in the chair car and telling me his story, which, thmigh short, had been sufficiently stirring I ' oi ' him. 69 To 1)1 ' lirii ' f, i1 sfi ' iiis iliiil when ln ' li.-ul (•dini ' in rrmu llii: IJall he had gouc right al)out completing tln ' |i!ickiiig nT his iniiik. |nilling cvcrvlhing in it excejit tlie cvt ' iiing i-lolhes he had mi.

When he had discdvcreil his loss hr had neai ' lv eollapsed. hut had eenie nearer yet tn doing so when he fniind that he was alone in the dorniilory, that the ii ' i ' ' ' ' ' I ' l ' ' ' ' n laken out eai ' ly that nmridng. and that the train which wmdd carry all his clothes, i ' xce]it the pajamas and uudirelhl mentioned, to Itichuinnd was due in ten mimites. .lust at this juncture. whi ' U consti ' rnat i(in sooniod gi ing way to des]iair. he had sjiied an old. long, tan raincoat and a jiair of I ' uniung shoes left hehind hy some li-ack man.

I ' uniiing aci ' oss the campus and the vacant lots to the ti ' ack ami then down to the depot, he had just managed to reach tlie haggage cai ' as the li-ain di ' ew out. liather dill ' eri ' ut from the way in which he had e. ]iecled to leave, wasn ' t it ? When I told him id ' how the lady had asked I ' oi- him and of how she had lookeil lien the train drew out. his nnsery seemed lo inci ' case and the first thing h( did on I ' eaching Kicliinond was to send her a wire, saying that he would come down on the afternoon train. As often happens in large cities lik( this, that wire failed of delivery until the next day. dolm went down that evening, hut as he alighted from the train she lioardcil it. and that night she was going up the Bay to I ' .altimore. lie didn ' t see hei- then and he has never seen her siitce, hut he hi ' ai ' d from her — once; and wlien he learned that she had caught a glimjise ol ' him as he ran down the track that moridng and that she had juni])ed to the very natural conclusion that he had r ' pented of his s])eech of the niiiht Ijefoi ' e and was running away, and in disguise at that, he gave it up: for he j-calized thai the evidence was all against him. He is still single, and so is she: and I ' m not saying what iiku ha|i]K ' n yet, but the little story .so far will aid somewhat in more firmly estahlishing the truth enunciated hy tlie inimitable Longfellow when he penned those immoi ' tal lines: Tlie liest-laiil cliriiic- i ' mice ami men Will turn cut tinilly iii w ami tlieii.

Its advent, however, was peaeeful and peaceable: its rounders were too young to take much part in the drama of war and hloodslied going on around them. This ancient society was organized Deeemhcr o, ITTl), and lived hut four years before it was broken up by the Revolution. I y the first of January, 17S1. the storm came so near the old College tluit she closed lier doors and sent many of her sons with the patriot army: the papers of the Phi Beta Kappa Society were turned over to the College steward, to be kept until the joyful event of the society- — its resurrection. These iiafiers were lost. U ' lie young society went into a dee|) sleep at the ])arent ehaptei ' , and was not revived until 1S4!I. -Meanwhile chapters hail lieen established at llaivard. Yale, and Dartmouth. These flourished and brought new lustre to the Society. ' J ' he mother chapter, in her first lustrum, initiated about sixty mendiers. ( f these, many became distinguished as orators, publicists, state.smen ; while the Xew England chapters elected many of the most lirilliant youth of their section. Consequently, Phi Beta KajiJa attained a national ])restige, which she has never lost to the present day. Originally. Phi Beta Kappa was an undergraduate literary and social society. In some respects, it was like the (ireek-letter fraternities of our day. . fter the advent of these fraternities, however. Phi Beta Kappa gave up the undergraduate feature and elected star men from the upper classes. She now occupies a ]iost-graduate relation to the other (ireek-letter societies: she does not compete with them ; an upperclassman can belong to both. . t William and lary, resident students are not elected. After a student leaves college.- he may be invited to join the Phi Beta Kapi)a. It is made a lii ' ili honor, neither money nor .social im]iortance having any weight in the matter: he must deserve the honor. The Civil War. like the Pevolution, broke up the old Society. After the war, a few men were initiated, but i:o records were ke])t. Only a few members of the post-belhnii ]ier:o l are living. In 1893, the cbajiter was ])Ut u])on a permanent basis. Since then, it has grown in strength and importance, until it has become a very inlluential organization: until its help is sought by large institutions desiring eha])ters. Then are two clas. ;es of members at William and Mary. First, the young alumni, elected for s]iecial promise in letters and education; second, the honorary mendiers, as they might lie called, men alri aily distingaiished in letters, science, education, and public life. There are now about a hundred living members of this chajjter: and the annual celeliration is one of the nmst impm-tant literary events of the year. 74 Directory of Kappa Sigma lictii — University of . l:ili:uiia.

IN Iho brief sjiaee allotted to us we liaidiv know -where lo licuiii. oi ' what lo ?;ay. as so much ])rcs( ' nts itself to us. when we begin lo think of the great work the Y. il. C. A. is doing in the world to-day. Those of us who have kept in elo.se touch with the various pliases of Y. ]M. C. A. woi ' k. such as: State, city, college, railroad, arm and na y. county, the student volunteer movement, and others, know of tlie wondei-fid pi-ogress it has made in the last few years. Our liearts are IIIIimI with gratitude lo our (iod. who has so richly blesst ' d us. ' i ' lie college work, we feel, is second in importance to none, for it is to the colleges wo must look for leading men. Besides, the Christian .Vssociation is a very essential organization in a college. We lielieve in developing an all-round man. the mind, the body, and the spirit. In the lecture rooms we develop our minds, on the athletic field and in the gymnasium we develo]i our bodies; we must therefore have something in college to develop the spiritual man. The Young Men ' s Christian Association is (lod ' s agent there. It is ujiou the work of the Y. 1 I. C. A. in our College since the last is.sue of this publication that 1 wish es])ecially to speak at this time. The final sermon before the Y. M. C. A. last June was delivered by Dr. Foster, of the Presbyterian church, Petersburg, Ya. His able address, and polished manner of speaking, left a lasting impression upon all who heard him. It is with grateful hearts to our Master that we record another year of progress and increasing interest in the religious activities of the College. The Asheville delegates and the remainder of the committee for the Fall Campaign, returned two days before tlie openinu- of College for a setting up conference. We were fortunate to have with us Messrs. Weatherford and [cXeill. our Secretaries, who.se valuable assistance, not only at this time, but throughout the year, cannot be too highly commended. Dr. Bi.shop and Dr. Hall of the faculty, several ministers of the town, and others, who have always manifested great interest in our work, were also ])res(mt. We believe that this conference, with the special help of Ir. Weatherfoi ' d. ineant nuub to us. An information bureau was arranged foi- the new students during the first week. Friday night of the first week we had a College night, where all ])hases of college life were presented by representative College men, and select speakers. A reception |)reeeded the sjieaking. and a canvass for meniliei-s followed. lany were enrolled — both students and professors. The roll has since exi ' ceck ' d mie hundred and thirtv members. We wei-( greatly indel)ted to the lailies (d ' the town for their assistance in pi ' oviding I ' efi-esbmcnts. thus making this nu ' cting a far greater success. At this time it seems to me only fitting that oui ' sincere thanks 99 should lie iiiiiilc known to ihr |ii ' o|ili ' of ilic lown in .ucnci ' al. I ' oi- llu ' ii ' lilirral. lo iil. and faithful support of oni- woik al all linn ' s. luch planning: and piayn I ' ul ronsidciatioii has vvn i;ivi ' n lo the organization of oiif vo?-k ill all of its dcpai ' tnicnts. The Cliairnicn of the liihle and Mission dcpartincnls. with the faithful assistance of the loadois. have rotti ' ii ihr work in excellent . liape. We otfi r thii ' ' Bible courses, ]m - eiyht classc; orfjani .cd with an eiiroilineni ol ' o er a hundred, and an average attendance of ahout seventy-fi e. Mr. lOhell, ilie Cliainuau of the Bihle work, has heen the Niu-uia! Uihie Chiss leader for this year. There are five ini.ssion courses oll ' ci ' cil, with an eiirolhuent of |ift lueii. C also v to tlie support of Air. llidihard, a luissionary in Cuha. We have a olunteer hand of two ini ' U. Oui ' earnest hope is tliat this liand w ' ll uvow. Our- iclijiious uieetinjs ha e l)een xcry well atteniled. thoui:li not as well a-s they luiyht havt ' heen. At the.se meetiuys, as usual, praclieal and ital ipu ' stions are discussed, pertaining- to ' College Ideals, ' ■ l.il ' e Woi-j . ami ■ Spiritual drowth. Oui- speakers are chosen from the student lioily, faculty and ministers of tile town. ' ' are hlessed to liave so inallv id ' tlie ) rofesS(n ' s and ministers ever willing ' to speak, and to keep ixdore us the true ideals id ' Chrislian liviiej. We are -ei- - foi-tuiiale in securiiifi- Dr. ilcDaniel, of the Fii- t Baptist eliurcli. liicliniond. to hold two meetiiius at the first of the se.ssion, also, ilex. Jlr. (ioodwin of the Episcopal church here, who lield a series ot meetings the last week in JIarcli. The earnest and forceful addresses of these S])eakers were listened to hy a crowded hall of students. Scvei-ai men decided to renew their vows, and one to take his first manly stand for Christ. ' e believe these meetings lia e greatly helped to give a lietter spii-itual tone to oui- College. The Week of Prayer was observed the second w-eek in Xoxcmher. I ' ourteen groups were arrauued throughout the CollcLie and fi-atern:ty house-i. Our strongest men w-ere selected as leadei-s. man otln ' i- Christian men assistinu:. The program Miggested bv the International Cominiltee was followcil. witli i ' vw exceptions. Tlie attendance was ahout one hundred and fifty each niiiht. We sent fi -e men to the Aslieville Conference last June. Seventeen delegates, including Dr. P isho|) of the faculty. re|)resented us at the Student Conference held at the University of Vii-g ' nia, February S to li). lIMtT. .Vllhough we have been blessed with strong delegations for the past few years, we hope to increa c them in th( future, especially to the Southern Students Conference held each vear at . .sheville. This is one of the princijial means of training oui- Icaileis, and (uir experience in the past has proven that it is money well spent, for our be4 and most active workers are the Aslieville delegates. Altlunigh we have been successful this year, and ha e bad many o;-casions to rejoice and thank our Jfaster who has Idcssed us. yet we realize that we have made 100 iiiistiikcs, iuid liavc luul some failures; lliat we lia e lefi iiiilcinc iiiueli which wv. iiiiylit have (lone, I ' oi ' our held is lar.t;c and so full of o|i|H)rtiiiiiiies lor scrviee.

Ho was so rude, she thought: but bless his dear heart, it is his way. lie may pull your ears or pluck a liutton off your dress, hut don ' t mind him in the least. He is just froni a tour through Hungary, 1 think it is, where the people are crazy about music. He has kindly consented to jilay f(Uir selections for us this evening, and what do you sn|)pose? A thousand dollai ' s. isn ' t it awful: but what are we going to do? The menagerie was in a far corner of the blue parbu ' s. So were most of the s|)ectators, and they were feeding the Tjion intellectual peanuts. Thitherward Irs. Oglesby escorted her favored guest; but it was ditticult work approaching thi ' King 103 of Beasts. Mrs. |)(_ ' ;inrrvfl hud a rifrlit of way, l)riiig nearest the cage, anil slie was (|uizziiif;- the ceU lirity after tliis fashion ; ■ Anil aren ' t von erazy ahoiit Aiiiericau music ?

IFcrr Gesunilheit spoke rapidly, working his mouth like a catapult, and siiooting forth unintelligible bunches of gutturals which rejiulsed if they did not convince. Once when he paused for a word which did not come readily he ex- pressed his im])atience i)y ])ulling out a handful of hair and kicking over a borrowed vase. Mien Mrs. Oglesby reached him witli her friend he was re- arranging his jiomjjadour, coa.xing back his obstreperous shirt bosom which was fighting its way out at the sides, and incidentally swearing at the Tnited States Government. SoulfuUy the hostess exclaimed, Oh, Herr (Jesundheit, I want to present my dearest friend, Mrs. Samson-Samson ; she is so fond of music. ' ' ' ' Vy haf you two Samsons?

And she led him a triumphal march over jardinieres and juvenile palms, lace curtains and imported trains. Not even Colonel Boozem ' s gout was spared. It iss not a ' Buhxclicii ' , growled the Professor, as he beheld the instrument he was to use. Yy haf I not a ' Buhsrhrn ' to play, eh? Don ' d you know I nefer play a ' Monark? ' Poor Mrs. Oglesby did not know what to do. She apologized profusely in a low tone, but Miss Prim, society reporter of the Rapier, heard every word ; and tliere was a wee suspicion of the friction in the column the next day. !Mr. Oglesby then took a hand, hissing through his teeth at Herr and jingling his coins in his pocket, and the Performer began to whirl the stool. Ponderously the Lion sat down. Shaking his mane, he glared fiercely around liim at the wonder-stricken gathering. He ran his fingers over the keys, touching them ever so lightly. Miss Gussip giggled sillily. By way of revenge Herr Gesundheit struck high G with his clenched fist. Tlie initiated watched 104 breathlessly, as did likewise the uninitiated. German nuisio is like German sausage; a German can stand pounds of it, but an American stalls at the prospect. Sweet strains of Wagner ' s latest vibrated even to the jilaee where the rafters were supposed to be. Each face liore an expression little .short of rapture. Tt was no common thinji: to be in a jiosition to behold a man who made about -eventy-five cents every time his linger touched a key on the piano. Truly, as George Ponsonby said, it was like getting money from home. The women crowded around the iliisieal Wonder, but the men lounged ar(]und outside on a piazza and wished that they might get farther away, where they could hear nothing worse than Aeh, die Liebe Augustine, a bewitching accompaniment to the munching of sweitzer sandwiches and the sipping of Budweiser. AVhen the act was over they jammed Herr Gesundheit into a corner, where he ground out musical criticism at a remarkable rate, and gathered in armful after armful of well-chosen gush which was in addition to his pay. W at matters it that Hawkshurst, the Awkward, has fallen into a vessel of simila.x? The fun is fast and furious enough for anyone. The only per.son who is not thoroughly enjoying the evening is Uncle Benjamin Angleworm, an ancestor of Mrs. Oglesby ' s, neatly done in oil, and roosting over the mantel. Another roar from the Lion, and a stroll through the gardens which were beautifully festooned with lanterns — all sorts of lanterns. Some red, some green, some pink. One containing the Sacred Peacock of Korea in etfig; - ; another The WTiite Bull of some other Seaport. Imaginary dragons snapped at the visitors and fireworks stole furtively into the air. It was a gala night; liut the Moon must give way to Music. The Celebrity plays the call to refreshments, and there is a mad rush for the cozy corners. Ebony waiters, resplendent in new shadtails, serve the omnivorous gue-sts to escalloped oysters and chicken salad and California olives with Lucca labels and cheese crackers and a queer concoction which is a cross between chile con came and pigsfeet. The oldest inhabitant cannot guess what it is ; and Doctor Fezzo who is present in a semi-olficial capacity, smiles npon it and with an observing eye selects the prospective ])atients who will call him out before morning. Then follows Neapolitan Cream made in fantastic images and furnished by Smilati, the Dago, who is all the rage for confections. Dyspepsia stalked grimly through the room and selected his victims: and the druggist who kept on the corner stood in front of the house and figured on the bromo-seltzer trade for the morrow. The refreshments are so invigorating that wlien they are all through the company feels as if it could stand the last selection of the evening, ' ' King Pumpernickel, which goes off with a whoop and winds up abruptly. Regretfully the company breaks up. ifrs. Oglesby ])U7n])S each visit(n ' a cordial good-night. The air is thick with. How delightful.

' i ' liail ami liasket-ball teams have iTllcitrcl mucli credit upiin llicii ' Alma Maici-. In atbli ' tifs, as well as in all other ])hasi ' s of eolleije lil ' e, William and Marv stands for all that is clean and honorable. In this aye we read and hear mueh about the evils and abuse ' ' in atbleties at the jireat colleges and universities of our country. W ' l ' are ylad to state that William and Mary has not yet been infected by any such evils. Wc are not a trainiiii; school foi- prcd ' essionals, nor do we harbor any, and we expect the other collejies with whom we have any relations to follow our example. Although our football sea. on was not as successful as we would liked to have had it. vet we cannot refrain from saying that William and Mary had a ti ' am which any institution might well feel proud of. During the lirst part of the season, we were without an experienced coach, and this fact jilaced the team at a great disadvantage. The latter ])art of October, Mr. James Barry, a fornuT ' irginia star, took charge of the team. He worked faithfully with the team and in the championshi]i games with I ' andolph-ilacon and Richmond colleges, our team showed the result of his fine training. We believe that if ilr. Barry had been with us throughout the season, William and ] Iary would have had a clean record of victories. Football is mie of the most impoi ' tant branches in a college athletics and William and Mary ought to realize this fact. We should give our teams the best training possible, and unless we do this we cannot expect to see them rank with those of our sister colleges. Basket-ball has become one of the most jMpular branches of athletics, since its introduction, two years ago. In the two years that William and Mary has had a basket-hall team, she has lost only two games and has won two championships. The team this year made an enviable record. It proved that it was the superior of any in the State. A very strong schedule was arranged, but owing to the suspension of college exercises, the games arranged with Virginia, Georgetown anil l!andol])h-] Iacon College had to be cancelled; the rest of the games scheduk ' d were played. In the game played against the Eichmond Y. M. C. A., although William and JIary was defeated, we do not acknowledge that she was defeated by a superior team. The game was ])layed in a gymnasium which had four posts in the middle of the floor. The gymnasium being a snudl one, these posts made team work impossible and turned the game into one of chance rather than skill. William and Mary did not do very much work in track atldelics this year. We took part in the Norfolk meet, but owing to lack of practice the team did not make a very good showing. We are glad to announce that William and Mary has 108 become a member of the Virginia Intercollegiate Track Association, and wo hope that this department of athletics will now receive the consideration which is due it. When our new running track is comjileted, wo sliall have ani])lo facilities for track work. The baseball season is well under way, but owing to our annual going to press early, we are unai)le to give an account of the season ' s games. The team is being coached by Mr. Jas. Barry, our last season ' s footliall coach, and we predict a most successful season. Tliere are five of last year ' s team bai-k, and, with some fine material from the Freslmian Class, we are expecting great things of our baseball team. Through tlie generosity of Mv. J. Archibald Cary, of l!ichni ind, William and ilary is to have a new atldetic field. It will be ready for use by the opening of the football season next fall. We shall have ample facilities for baseball, football and track athletics. A grand stand and bleachers are to be erected ; these will supply a long needed want. This new addition to the college ' s athletics ought to give new life to all its different branches. We wish to express to Mr. Cary through these columns our appreciation for his generous gift. In conclusion, we desire to express our appreciation to the faculty, students and all others who have helped to make our athletics a success during the past year. 109 OFFU ' i:HS (iKNEHAL ATHLETIC ASSOC lATIIIN Athletic Department OFFICERS OF ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION President, C.

Pocahontas, and that her chieftain-fatber. Powhatan. liosseJ the job. Whether this be true or not, it is a historical fact that the HraHerton is the oldest Indian school-buildini; in America, and even the most credulous will admit that the lirallertcn (orisinally co-educational) minibercd amonii her students Poc.ihontas and numbers of the ancient Indian braves and that John Sn.ith and t ' oluml)Us wore amoni; ber early presidents. Although the old liratl ' erton wigwam bears the scars cf the weatherini, ' storms of centuries: altboui;b she has thrice witnessed the college of William and .Mary go down in her ashes, only, each time. Pluenix-like, to arise greater an l n:(re Iieuitiful still, yet. the walls cf this old wigwam stand out to-day as stately and majestic in their rugged beauty as the Indi an braves who once sought knowledge within them. For many years the college authorities have recognized the fact that it was impo.ssible for anyone to live within this old wigwam without breathing the atmosphere and catching the spirit of the Red Man which still lingers within her walls, and not many years ago President Tyler secured from one of Spottswood ' s old f(nts on the York, a devilish looking gun that belclieil fc rth clouds of smoke and tongues of tire and placed it near the wigwam of the l?ratVerton Indians, thinking thereby to intimidate them into silence, but — not so. The fears iirst kindled at the sight (if this iron monster soon vanished. Bows and arrows were thrown aside for this more modern instrument of warfare and ere long, the sleeping fossils of Middle Plantation were startled from their slumbers by the thundering peals of old Spottswood. mingled with the terrifying warwluops of the lirafVerton Indians. So nearly alike did the characteristics of the BratTerton Indians becon e to those of the ancient Red ilan. and so great was the contrast between their warlike dispositic ns and the mild, peaceful dispositions of the other students, that in the yeir IHOO A. D.. they crganized themselves into tribes consisting of the Bomhastu. Sycora.x. and Figaus. That the Brafterton Indians will always be a listinct organization, no cne can doubt, for the spirit and atmosphere that hath made us Indians will live long after the walls of our old wigwam shall have crumbled into du-t beneath the weight of sticceeding centuries.

In the opening year, 1894, there were 2Q boarders, 6 offi- cers and teachers, a campus of six acres, and a school phmt valued at $25,000. In 1907 there are 303 boarders, and DO day pupils, 31 officers and teachers, a campus of 34 acres, and a school plant valued at $120,000. What ex- plains this continuous, extraordinary growth ? Modern brick huilding, with electric light. , water on every floor, $3o,ooo spent in improvements for the c oming session ; Faculty trained in the l)est .schools, all living in the huilding with the girls ; unusual advantages in niu ic; normal department for the training of teachers ; cheer- ful, wholesome and inspiring Christian influence. No increase in expenses, notwithstanding the general in- crease in the cost of living : $150 oo pays all charges fiir the year, including table board, room, liglits, steam heat, laundry, medical attention, physical culture, and tuition in all subjects, except music and elocution.

Locher, faiherof the present management, who had been in the cement business at Shepherdstown, W. Va , and Cumberland and Hancock, Md. The sole purpose of the works at that time was the making of cement for the locks ;ind dams of the James River Kanawha Canal from Richmond to Buch- anan, requiring hundreds of thousands of barrels Since the completion of the canal, in 1855, the work has been continuously operated as a commer- cial enterprise. The locks and dams of this canal, except those torn out to get stone for railroad purposes, are still standing as monument- to the supe- riority of James River Cement. During the fifty-eight ytars of its manufacture it has been used on nearly all tlie railroads, reservoirs, and public buildings in Virginia, and is now being used largely all over the State and in other states, notably on the Norfolk and Western and Chesapeake and Ohio Railroads. These facts are a sutiicient guarantee of its high quality and commend it lo all persons wanting a good cement. J.
