When he first came In ccillcge, he gave the faculty the impression ihat his brown-haired cranium contained some- thing substantial, and now every time he makes below two hundred per cent, on an examination, the Clan Deierhoi goes intu niuurnnig. He claims to be an athlete, but the only things he has accomplished in this line are President of the Tennis Club, President of the Athletic As- sociation, and Manager of the 1911 Baseball Champions. He is the Nestor of his Literary .Society ; by adroit wire pulling he became Final President of the glorious Phoenix. He is a mem- ber of the Spottswood Club, and he insinuated his v.ay into a place on both the Magazine and An- rual Staffs. He reads novels of the Romance period, and blushes with becoming blushiness when he gazes girlward. Bui for a ' that.

Recommended as capricious, fastidious, eccentric, finicky, precise, romantic, poetic, and practical. Believes in good, clean profanity, loves to write and dance, worships James Lane Allen. He came here by way of Transylvania University and tile University of Virginia, at each of which in- stitutions he was Editor-in-Chief of the magazine, so quite naturally he is the founder and Editor- in-Chief of The Flat Hat. He is a poet and a prose writer of purest ray .serene, and uses tem- perament as an excuse for murder, free thinking and cutting lectures. He is a member of the Spottswood Club, the German Club, and the N. N. O. Kavvy is essentially a progressive, but his respect for the antiquities of Ye Ancient Capitol is equalled only by his affection for its fair resi- dei.ts. His chief characteristic is temperament, his pet theory is that a pruning knife is the best cure for a college faculty, and his main ambition ;s to become a multi-millionaire, to purchase the Kentucky State Library, and to live in ease and plenty upon his broad and blue grass acres.

He came down here from Bucknell University with his mind so full of German verbs and his soul so sraurated with a scientific knowledge of every- thing, that the faculty mistook him for a brand new edition of the Encyclopaedia Brittanica, and gave him the highest scat in the synagogue. When he isn ' t winning scholarships — he has an- nexed three of them already — he writes passionate poetry and runs the college. He is a member of the Kappa Chi and the German Club, a valuable addition to the magazine staff, and Editor-in- Chief of the CoLONi, L Echo. He is essentially a primitive man, and is one of the Northern Lights and the N. N. O. He is manager of the igi2 baseball team, and has fond hopes of creat- ing many pleasant memories on the northern trip. Every other day in the week . Ian may be found m his den, reading Browning with one eye and Henry Van Dyke with the other. The days in between he employs by studying mathematics in hi. own peculiar way. He is loving and lovable, •ind if stroked in the right direction, can be fed Ipv liand. Oc 1912 Colonial Ccfto 23 THOMAS HEXL1-:Y GEDDV. Jr., Williamsburg, Va. K 2; K. OF V. F. ,• PHOENIX. Preeminently a gentleman and a scholar. A most profound runt. So small that his family refer to him as Big Brother out of pure kind- ness. For three years he has elicited wonder and admiration that one so young and fair should be such an adept at basketball: for the last two years Ik- lias not only been on the quintet, but as Manager of the team he has arranged more trips to places where he has beautiful blond sweethearts than all previous Managers combined. Politics, and a speciallj ' designed evening coat, gave him the German Club presidency. He is also a mem- ber of the N. N. O. Tottmiy is an enthusiastic alumnus of the Williamsburg High School, and lives in town, and it is said that in the summer time, when everybody has left college, he is much sought after by the fair sex. He takes great interest in James City County Court pro- ceedings, and as a legal authority, he has a very sweet voice, and plays delightfully upon both the mandolin and the guitar. Tommy can always be depended upon to make one of a plea.sant com- r.any, ami is loved by all who have ever come within llu- range of bis radiant vision. 24 € K 1912 Colonicil Crbo FREDERICK DEAXE GOODWIN, Ashland.

His boast is that while he has never pufTed the nauseating weed, nor sipped even .A.pollinaris. that ever.vbody is wild about bun. At the beginning of the year the faculty, recognizing true genius, conferred on him the de- gree of Bachelor of Art.s. He is all sorts of an athlete, having made a place on both the foot- b-all eleven, baseball team and the track team. He is a member of the Spottswood Club, and adorns both the magazine an l . nnual staff. While he was still very young, his nurse used to sing him lullabys out of a Greek grammar, and so fluent did he become in that tongue that his speech is still tinged with a stro.ig Hellenic ac- cent. Lately he has developed a passion for Spring poetry, and it is rumored that he gazes oft out of his window with a yearning sigh. Cljc 1912 Colonitil Ccl)o 23 JOSEPH FAR LAXD HALL, Williamsburg, Va. K -; K. OF Y. F.; PHOENIX. He prefers to be known as J. Farland, but the fellows call hint Joe. He is round and rosy, and blushes so prettily that often he is borrowed for puik teas, to be used in the decorating sche.n, ' . He is Literary Editor of the igi2 Coloni.ai, Echo, anl until he heard an inter-society con- test, he was an enthusiastic Phoenician. He has been captain of the basketball team for two ears. and three years have seen him stand, a s;alwart guard, beneath the japanne.l basket brackets. On the trip through North Carolina lie leaned far from the Pullman anil coyly said, •■Ah, there. to a lisping Tarhecless. and e er since then he has been kept indoors. Uuj t ' l his prominent connection with the faculty, he Ic.ids a very mild existence. He is a member of the N. N. O. All in all. he is an athlete, an ex- cellent student, a social aspirant, and a full. rich, red American Beauty. 26 €lK 1912 ColoninI €cl)o K( )r.i:k r iiri ci-: jacksox, Keswick, ' a. K 2; K.

He meant business, and that year saw him tuck away a scholarship lii his trunk. However, he soon reformed, and ga e himself up entirely to the sterner realities of life, such as calicoing, taking off the mem- bers of the faculty to select audiences, and spin- mug yarns fur all who would listen. The Eliza- 1 ethans and the Minstrels were blessed by his histrionic talent, while the magazine. The Echo, the Spottswood Club, and the Phoenix exhaled h,s literary producticns. One dark night Bob saw the awful mysteries la ' the K, of Y. F., and he also dunned the cowl of lii( N. N. O. Locking about for new fields to conquer, he shined his shoes, put on a hard-boiled slurt, and tripped the light fantastic into the b.carts of the members of the German Club and the presidential chair thereof. As manager of llie igil football team, he won new spurs by h ' s .i nderful system of mathematics, evincing a financial genius which forced upon him the busi- ness managership of the magazine. Kavvy Doty called him with a loud voice to the staff of the Flat Hat. and his trimmings do much to keep it in style, while the 1912 Echo boasts him as .- siistant Editor-in-Chief, and the .Senior Class 111 ' - chosen him to say its public farewell to Alma i ' ;.ter.

Tuhhy ■ la.-on they call him down here. hcre he is as familiar a landmark as Brnton Pirish Church and the first College Widow. Many, many years ago he left college, minus alout one-sixth of a point for a Bachelor ' s de- gree, and he returned this fall to look in on the en : vd and to disseminate knowledge with a l)land. crocodilcan smile. The interim he occupied by piloting the affairs of Richmond City and teach- ing the young idea how to volplane. The pres- ence of his gray hairs and mature e.xpcricnce cau. es our pen to feel small and embarrassed at such a compact bunch of chemistry, and the academites who attend the study hall over which he presides have learned to tjuake at his august tread, as he wraps the drapery of his toga about v.m. and walks forth among them. Twice ha;h hj allowed his picture to appear as one of the .-vrnual Staff, and this year the Phoenix crowned him president of all. So one may see that Tubby is a factor in the progress of this mundane spliere. 28 € )c 1012 Coloniiil Cfl)o WILLIAM HAVXIE XEBLETT, Kenbridge, Va. K 2 : PHILOMATHEAX.

When Flit first appeared, he went up to the Physics Laboratory and proved derinitely by an adroit experiment that two plus two equals four. Since that time, of course, he lias been an authority of note on scientific mat- ters. He is Business Manager of The Coloni.m, Echo, and played tackle on the igii football team. Ever and anon he wins a scholarship, and (ver and anon he reaches into the ether and pulls therefrom a real idea. .And then, good-night, un- protected idea. He is a member of the German Ch:b, and flits around the floor with all the grace- ful abandon of a careless freight car. He has been prominent in almost every phase of college iife, and many a gazelle-like being, with a fluffy hobble .skirt has he escorted to Y. M. C. A. lec- ti-res. He. too, is a reliable .soul, and one always to be depended upon whether it be for business cr for fun. Che 1912 Colonial €ci)o 29 CHARLES CHAP] IAX SX()W Wicomico Church. Virginia. e A X- PHILOMATHF.AX. A beautiful creation of such downy white snowiness that his alabaster cheeks mantle and crimson when some rude ruffian smites him upon his shoulder and inquires the hour of day. A genus rarum. a pale worshipper of the fair Diana, and a youth of most ascetic tastes. His chief characteristic is the nonchalant air with which his soft hat hangs over his left ear. His only dissipation is a good cigar, and his sole ambition is to reduce the great big universe to a confounded little chemical formula. Charlie is a member of the German Club: Chapman belongs to the Spotts- w ood Club : and Snow is Instructor in chemistry. This three in one combination is a silent force that the academy dreads, that the college respects, and one that is loved by all who know. He is a charter member of the W. T. C. U.. w-hich means that he struts through all examinations with his tail curled up. As a pedagogue and a model school instructor he is unsurpassable, and though he has never found it advisable to travel en masse — whatever that means — he is recognized as a coming man. 30 €i)c 1912 Coloniiil €c ]o JAMES HERMAN SL ' LMERS, Leesburg, Va. A Benedict. A proud father. A musing Man of rare intellectuality. He really belongs to the vintage of ' o2- ' o i when he played center on the football team and stood ace high as one of the best second basemen that William and Mary has ever had on her baseball nines. Owing to grid- iron injuries, he took so long a sojourn from col- lege that he finally left and took up teaching as his vocation. But Fate slipped around his fawn- like neck her silken noose of Destiny, and drew his tender form into the bonds of matrimony. He has a great thirst for knowledge, and at most any time of day he may be seen resting medi- tatively in an easy chair, and drinking in wisdom. He is popular with everybodj-. and the only ob- jection that has ever been raised against Pap is that his peculiar brand of humor is so dry that one cannot listen to it and refrain from H„0.

Toddy ' s most distinguishing ijuality is his rat- tli -brained manner. He gave promise of great things when lie tirst arrived, but after he had been hire two minutes, he met a lireaniy-eyed young ereature. He goes to his tirsi two leclures every morning, tlien hastens down l)ul c of Ghiucester . ' street for several miles, to spend the day end. ( hi account of his handsome features, he made the Varsity nine, and by reason of his baseball ability, he was voted the handsomest man. Teddy is on the Annual staff, is a member of the Spotts- wood Club, and has also fou.ght with the embot- llcd members of the N. N. (). He uses his posi- tion of secretary of the German Club as an ex- cuse for trying to dance, and his favorite oceupa- lon is eating candy that oilier fellows send the girl he loves. .-Xt that, Teddy is a real likable chap, and his most intimate friends s.iy he takes hmiscif seriously. He is a thorough business man. and as manager of this year ' s football team, he made it his duty to escort a fair one to every game so as to swell the gate receipts. 32 € K 1912 Coloiiiiil €cf)o To the Class of 1912 As suggested by Mr. Xoycs ' Prologue to Drake.

Has t!;e iJt Senior Class of nji- ' a history? This may ro: l)e so easilv answered, ■R ' jWi l)Ut w c can safely say that its members, as individuals, have: yes, igSy: ! some real history. Such jiatriarchs as Dutch Summers. Bish Lee and judge lirown of old, are themselves historic reiics. ; cannot say. as a former historian of a Senior Class has said, that four years ago we arrived in ' illiamsburg a forlorn looking, heterogenous mass, for some few of us have known William and Mary from time immemorial, while Hall and (Jeddy the Little first saw the light of day within sight of her historic walls. Ore should not fancy that the Senior Class of 19 12 is composed entirely of I)atriarchs. for some were little darlir ' gs when Uryan and free silver were upper- most ii: men ' s minds. We feel that we, as a Class, are worthy of a history, worthy of our Alma Mater ' s benign blessinir. and to battle with the affairs of life. Our Class can boast of its athletes and monogram men. Some ha ' e held official jiositions, while others have starred on the gridiron, on the diamond and in basketball. In future years we can look back and characterize each other in some such way as English and his essa - medals: Jackson, the imjiersonator : 1-ee and his theologv: Doty, the lawyer and journalist: Deierhoi and his douVile p ' s : Brown and Summers. the married men: Goodwin. Hall, (leddy. Willcox and Prex. Xeblett. the athletes; -Mason the Fat: and Snow the student. . fter glancing at this, cannot one say, as did Horace, Many men of manv minds ? There, too. are some calicoists in our midst. e are representeil in the skating club, dancing clul). and, I might add. in all dtlier clubs. Our careers are indeed checkered and our expe- riences arie(!. We do not claim to be the Freshman Class of four years a, ;o. for some have fallen by the wayside, until now, as we charge the heights of Gettysburg, we can count only thirteen in our little battle-scarred ban.l. and alas I we shudder to think that our number may be less when the roll is calletl. We feel that we have won the respect of both faculty and student body through our eti ' orts and attainments, and now. as we go forth from the historic walls of our old College to fight the battles of life, may the records of future years be able to show deeds that will do honor to the Class of 1912 and to our .Alma Mater.

It is marvelous, divine: for who hut a god can foresee what glories llicsc men ma_ - attain: what I ' lUure Jeffersons. what Marshalls, yea, even greater, the Class of uj 2 may produ.x ' ? It is a hopeless task, the prophet cries despairingly as he rises from his tahle, only by the past can we judge the future. He paces the floor, — and thinks. Nay. ' tis not for me alone. he says, to [iroijhesy the des- tinies of this illustrious Class. ■( )h, wail some Power the giftie gie us Lost in thought, the jirophet leaves his room, and in despair roams througli the halls of the old college, and then, unconscious of his way, wanders toward the woods, seeki :g some quiet spot where he may nest his weary Ijrain, smoke his pipe in peace. — and dream. He wanders aimlessly onward, wrapped in thought, urtil he reaches the shores of Lake hitoaca. Here, thinks he. 1 am in peace: far awav from the worries and constraints of life. lie liizhts his pipe and dreams. Tis a beautiful si)rirgtin.ie day, like to those on the sunlit shores of Italy. The leaves in the trees are just beginning to o])en to a new life: the water in the lake sparkles with the tint of diamonds: the birds o ' erhead raise their voices in a song of the new sjirirgtime. All is happiness. Even the little S(|uirrel, scampering from tree to tree, realizes the dawn of a new life. The busy bee, gathering his sweet nectar, buzzes with the joy of living. ' Mid all this the ]irophet smokes and dreams. lie thinks of the past; how savage red men used to roam this very wood, how his own ancestors were slain by those redskin brutes, how through trials and hardships his forefathers helped to build a nation. He thinks of the present: his work at college, his friends, his old mother and father at home, — the joy of youth and the brightress of a new sjiringtime. Then his thoughts travel to the future. Aye. ard what of that future? ' Will it be bright, or will it be, in con- trast to the life around him, one of pains and sorrows? . h, but who can te ' I? he mutters. Would that T might look into the future and foresee the destinies of men! Rut suddenly his dream is stopped. The pipe falls to the ground, his € )c 1912 Colonitil Ccfao 37 mouth opens, he stares with astonishment. For there hefore him, spreading over the waters of the lake, he sees a panorama, like some tableau of old, Moving across it are familiar figures, shades of his college and boyhood friends, old class- mates, some of whom have become leaders of man. lie hears a voice, as from the rippling of the water. Oh, despairing Prophet. it say- , hearken to the voice of ' yr(l. Look thou, and see the shades of the future; and whatsncver thou shalt see, record. The prophet looks and sees. The flitting shades take form; and in i)lace of the sparkling waters of the lake, is seen a multitude of cheerjrg men. Stand- ing before them is a man, who, amid the cheering of the mob, closes his oration with an outliurst of fiery eloquence of which the famous Henry might well be proud. The jirophet recognizes the orator as the shade of our president, and listens with astonishment to his final words: For these reasons, fellow-citizens, 1 implore you to vote for W. H. Xeblett as Prohiljition candidate for the Presi- dency of the L ' nited States. J ' iz-c Ic nation! ' ' The cheering nuiltitude moves onward, and in its place appears the image of our country ' s capitol. The prophet looks, and ir a stately hall he sees the shades of nine distinguished statesmen, deciding the destiny of a nation. These men ' he recognizes as the highest court of our broad land. At the end of the table he sees a familiar figure, and starts with astonishment as he hears the clear, soft voice of Deierhoi, who, by his masterful use of language and logic, converts his associates to his o]:)inion, and cr)ntinues the work of the illusirii.ius Marshall. (Jh, what a glorious thing it is to be the classmate of Presidents and of greater than Presidents ! The shades move onward, and the scene is changed. Instead (if the stately buildings of the ration ' s capitol, a|)]: ears a scene as of a country village at a county court. The towi: o ' erfiows with neighboring farmers, who, gathering in little groups, discuss their county politics. Suddenly ajipears the imj osing figure of a man, who, walking up the street, tun:s towards the little courthouse. It is the figure of a prominent local attorney, and the leader of the county political machine. As he passes onward, he nods familiarly to each admiring group, and everywhere he speaks some |)leasa; t word of greeting. The prophet looks and sees with wonder that this imposing figure is the shade of his classmate and col- lege friend, Tommv Geddy. He recalls Tom ' s college politics, and mutters, Ah. ' twas ever Tom ' s ambition to lead his fellowmen in the field of politics. But lo ! who is it with whom the lawyer stcjps and speaks. It is the shade of Tubby Mason, the popular principal of the local high school, and the chief supporter of Tom ' s political ambitiors. Possibly even now thev are determining (he county ' s policy in the next election. 38 Oc 1912 Colonial Ccho Again llic scene is changed, and the honie ' .ike buiUHngs of a female college appear. Scores of girls walk on the campus and discuss the latest excitement of their school. . ' Suddenly the object of their talk leaves his door and walks toward the college building, lie enters a lecture-room and is greeted with deafening applause by b.is excited pn|)ils. The jirophet recognizes the shade as the figure of Gooilwin. now the music teacher in the school, and learns that Cutey ' has just been married lo his most beautiful student. Well, the prophet says, Fritz was always original. .May his future troubles be no greater than the follies of his by- gone days ! The flitting shadows of the quaint old cam[uis pass on. and in their place appears the stately scene of a crowded court-room. The judge, whom the pro- phet recognizes as the shade of Teddy W ' illcox of old, lays down the law with gracious eloquerce: while the leading attorney, in his ticry outbursts of oratory. carries all before him, and leads the imagination of his hearers to a home broken up by a stubborn wife, pleadirg with the jurors to free his client from the burdens of such a home. Mark ! but is there not something familiar in that voice? Has it rot some ring of eloquence well known to us in our college days? Oh! the attorney concludes with an outburst of eloquence, and as he takes his seat the prophet recognizes Hon. Robert Bruce, or just plain Bob Jackson, of the Class of 1912. But look! hose figure is it rising from his seat and tear- fully shaking his attorney ' s hand? The prophet knows him not, and yet methinks there ' s .something familiar in his carriage. My ( .od! It ' s Charlie Snow! But oh, liow changed! Ah. |)oor Charlie, the iirophet muses; he was ever a quiet fellow. Alas! that the horrors of a brutal wife should have forced him to the disgrace of a divorce court. ' Again the scene is changed, and the stately buildings of a great university appear. Shades of idle students move across the campus, whet: suddenly the stooped form of an old man leaves the college building and walks slowly toward the gate. Groups of lazy students stop their talk and speak respectfully to their distinguished teacher. But is not that figure familiar? . h, it is; f(ir even now he smokes a time-worn corr-cob pipe. It is the shade of English, now of world- wide fame as a leader in educational work. But alas! that he. dear old Alan, should have forsaken us thus, and entered the lists in the persecution of the seekers-after-knowledge. The buildings of the college vanish, ard in their place appears the scene of a citv theatre, crowded with enthusiastic people, who, with loud applause. show their appreciation of the humorous scenes. Soon is announced the feature of the performance; a laughable one-act vaudeville sketch entitled: Jovs of Bachelorhood, or ' ' Stay Sirgle: ' ' leading comedians. Summers and Brown. The play commences. Piut listen! is not that voice familiar? . h ! and that one. too? €lK 1912 Colonial erijo 39 What? ' Dutch ' Summers and Judge Brown, the Benedicts of the C ' lass of 1912 ! Alas, the prophet shouts, Uh, what a vain and fickle thing is woman ! Or.ce more the shades pass on. and there appears the scene of a great ban- quet hall. In it are gatheretl famotts men of every clime, who are assembled to attend the annual meeting of the L ' nited Association of Newspaper Editors. ' All is suddenly quiet as some one rises and calls for a speech from the famous editor of the Kentucky Buster. ' Mid deafer ing applause, the man rises and begins his speech. What! is that the famous editor? The prophet recognizes him as the shade of our classmate, Mistuh William Kavanaugh Doty, sub. from Kentucky. He has now become the rival of the famous W ' -atterson, and like Mar.se Henry, he likes his Kentucky julep, suh. But he continues bis speech. Listen ! His hearers are swayed by each outburst of his masterful oratory. He is closing now, when suddenly be shouts, ' mid round after round of applause, ■ ' Down with Woman ' s Suffrage: let us cast co-education to the four winds of tlie earth : and relegate reformed spelling to the use of blackguards and ruffians! ' ' Xow all the shades fade s ' .owly from the surface of the lake : once more is heard a sound, as of the rip])ling of tlie water, and the shrill, uncannv voice of W ' yrd cries out, O prophet, thott hast seen revealed the future of me . Record, lest they die with thee. C)h, (ioddess of Fate, the prophet prays, canst thou not show to me my future? Canst thou not tell to an imhappy man what thou wouldst do with him? I pray thee, cruel W ' vrd, depart not from me until thou tellest me of my destiny. ( )h, bapjsy man, the shrill voice answers, thou shall not know thy joys to come. Let them be to thee as bright jewels in the darkness of thy life! W yrd takes flight, and in vain the prophet calls for knowledge. Wildly he cries, and then more wildly. The heavens resound with shrieks, and high hills re-echo bis bitter pleadirgs. Suddenly be stops and looks on the ghastly form of Death itself, and hears the deep sepulchral tones as sounds from the graves of tlie ancient dead. Ob, unbajipy mortal, beware of the voice of Deitb ! Thou didst desire to see. and lo! thou hast seen the destinies of thj- fellownien. Hearken to thine own. O whatsoever dav thou dost reveal these sacred secrets |o mortal man, on that day tbcu sbalt die.

( ;ur greeting at the Colonial Capi- tal was in many respects dift ' erert from that of the year before. Instead of hear- intc such hideous remarks as, Ha. there Dues, Splash ! Splash ! and many others of equal humiliation, we were met at the station by affectionate old college friends, fair damsels, and college widows. We were glad to be back in this historic environment, in the presence of our old chums, under the [precept of our faithful faculty, and in view, now and then, of the dazzling bright eyes and smiling faces of the dwellers at the Institute. These things are jdeasant. but we must rot dwell overmuch upon dreams and memories. Stern facts are the rule in this bustling age, and we shall now begin the narration of those wondrous acts ard accomplishments which distin- guish this Class from e ' ery other one in college. The first few days after our arrival were spent in greeting old acquaint- ances and ir givinir advice to the Dues regarding which of the dormitories would be likely to make them the most comfortable abode. W ' e especially warned them against settling in the Brafferton, and also emphasized the fact that they should not, by any means, use profane larguage, or cause any disturbance of an unusual character. ■ ' )f course, as is nearly ahvays the case when you attempt to warn or advise those who know more than vourself, our admonitions fell upon unappreciative ears, and many of those green bovs violated the last-named stipu- lation. These were brought to trial in the Slipren e Court, but because of the fact that they apparertly repented for their lack of decorum and that the whole student body loved them so much, the jury ' s verdicts were not severe. And even after the jury had dealt so leniently with them, the judge of the court showed still further mercy by reducing their fines to one-half, making a reiluction. in mary cases, from one dollar to fifty cents. After our work of this sort was finished, we quietly settled down to study. ?n when we did so. we established a Class of curlers. Now we do not ask ou to take our word alone for this statement, but we refer you to the judgment of the faculty, who have pronounced us the best Class in college. Of this o en Cf)c 1912 Colonitil ecijo 49 aril slraiyhttiirw arcl ilcclaratic m (of the faculty) vc are sincerely prouil, be- cause we believe it was made not through flattery, but with all the sincerity and justice which makes famous that l)ody of discreet men. ' l-s, we estab- lished a Class (. f curlers, both by name and by nature. The professors in the difterent departments have almost come to dread us because we always curl them and they can rever curl us. lUit we hii] e the ' will overcume their drea 1 of us before the time comes when we .i, :! out as sclmlars. oratnrs, poets, musicians and ministers (for we ha e them all in our number), to represent this Class in the bus world. . or is the ca]iacity of our members limited to the mental s;)here alone. We ha e always Ijeen determined to develop our bodies aloni with our minds, and our determination has not been in vain. Last fall at the first call of ' lur new coach, nearly the whole Sojjhomore Class ajipeared on the football field, ready to do all they could to promote the welf.ire of that intercstint;- phase of colle.ye life. .Although there are mary faithful ones who did not make the team, when the day came on which the monograms were to be iM-esente l in chapel a goodly portion of those who marched forward were members of the Sophomore Class. And the call f(jr men when basketball practice began was answere l with that same zeal and determjration which had been so characteristic of the .sopho- mores in football. Although there were only a few who could receive honors in that de];artment, our Class was well represented, and several of our members made their monograms. Xow in conclusion, as there is no prophet elected in any but the .Senior Class, we wish to assume the duties of one, and say that when we have gone up- ward ard onward ste] by step until we have undergone the ordeal of the Senior Class, we shall then go forth, strong of mind and body, to face the perils of a cruel and busy world. ' e may be found sailing over boisterous seas: we may be foul d in distant [)arts of the earth: but wherever we are found, we shall be faithfully performing our duties in accordance with the precepts of our kind teachers and in such a way as to reflect honor u]um the Class of 1014.

' J or years we ha e hveil l ut for this qlorir.us name. We ha e tiie past behind us. — a past tilled with expectations for the future, tilled with impatient waitirg for this very time. We have a present: and what more sjilendid is there than a college under- graduate standing on the threshold of his life? We have a future — one of four yeais of college life with a vast unkn iwn liey.ind. There are yet unconquered worlds: men of ' 15 go forth and like ancient . lexander subdue these worlds and wee]) that there are ro more. The Class of 1915 assembled on September 21st last, and at once entered college with the spirit that will make us wiser and Ijetter men. Some of us were possilily green, and irdeed these were truly refreshing: they, we may sa}-, were fresh from t!ie bills of obi X ' irgiria and bad but just left their cow pastures, l)arn- yards, etc., at the sound of the old college bell. The rest entered from the . cad- emy, and ah! how i)roud they were! Now they could wonder at the ignorance of tb.e prep, men, ard vet pit} ' their classmates who had missed the advantages of William and Mary College. The Freshman Class is at the front of all college activities. In the first place we are students. Even the faculty, ever ready with flaming sword to per- secute some poor unfortunate, has been unable to se:d e en one ' if us to th.e heaven wdiere he would be. We have learned how to ride a horse; we have learned how to read angles under the most difificu ' t circumstances : we know when to laugh at some hoary-headed joke. We eve:: know that Koberl E. Lee did not discover America, and that Queen Elizabeth was not the first man to look upon the Pacific Ocean. Again, we are leaders in literary society work. ( )ur men are ]irominent in the publications of the college, Midst the ladies we are ahvavs found; and with Tilley, ' right, Peachey and Prutzman as the leaders, luany a fair lassie of ye .Ancient Capital has fallen victim to our charms. In athletics we are ever at the fro: ' t: Tilley, captain-elec!. .Ma er ami Somers of football ]irii (.-ss ;ire members of our chosen bainl. Mitchell upheld Gur name in basketball: and in baseball, with Garth and I ' eachev of b ' .st year ' s team to start with, we are certain of an honorable place. We must say, however, that all om- learning is unt in books, nor ;dl our accomplishments on the atliletic field: often wc can hear l ' .;tb ( larth and Booksey Cox in Earnest discussion as to wdiich was (W ' ) right. They have de- 3G €lK 1912 Colonial Cclio (.•idc ' ti that C liarlic Smith got Cook-ed. that I ' ressoii woiihl be a gnod man to dig graves, except that his hones contain so httle Marrow, and that Hoover is a graceful Walker on a moonlight night in May. Suddenly liahy asks excitedly, How far did Harry Cart — er? and is astonished at l ooksey ' s calm re])ly : ■ 1 don ' t know, hut if he Crouch — ed low. how fast can Jack Hurdle? lUit alas! no more of this. .Men of 15, a little learning is 1 dangerous thing. and for this reason we heg to be excused. h ' ellow-c ' assmen. you have seen your achievements recorded. You see that you. too. have a name and a dignity. Let us live, therefore, throughout our CO lege days with ' the knowledge that we have a name to uphold, a dignity to preserve, a goal towards which we luust strive. Lei us ever remember that in a few short years we will be Seniors, with a heavy Inirden to bear and 1 ur Alma I rater ' .s reputation to sustain.

' .MES OF THE GREEKS GO €lK 1912 Colonitil (Ocho Phi Beta Kappa Society ers nf tlic Annual know, this brotlierhood of scholars was Ixirn at William and Mary College on the 5th of December, 1776. Its early career is krown ici all readers of history. Its recent history, also, is known to all students and alumni of the old college. In this article we shall state a few facts which are not generally known, hut which should he made matters of ]5ermanent record for future refererce. In 17S1, the hoxs of ' 76 ' adjourned for the Revolution. They deposited their records in the hands of the college steward, to remain with him ' until the joyful event of the Society ' s resurrection. . fter the Revolution these records weri- returned to I.andon Cabell, secretary pro tciii of the last meeting. His son, Dr. Robert H. Cabell, of Richmond, deposited them with the Virginia Historical Society. ' J ' his was in 184S. l-Voni that time till iSi ,S. these old records slept ])eacefully in the archives of that Society. In 1893. after the revival of the Cha] ter under the present management, they were returned to the mother Cha|iter. The period froiu i84(j to i86r has rever been thoroughly investigated. As no records of that period have been found, it is impossible to name all the mendiers. In i84(j the Society was revived with the coo])eration of Honorable Wi ' - liam Short, the second president of the chapter, then living in Philadelphia, at the age of rinety. The faculty men kiun ' ii to have been initiated between 1849 and 1861 were. LdloncI Renjamin S. Ewell : Professor Edward S. Joynes ; Pro- fessor Edwin Taliaferro: Professor Robert T. Morrison; Messrs. James M. Wise, ' . Robertson Garrett and Robert Gatewood. assistants. The students known to have beer elected were, William Lamb: W. Talbot ' alke : W. H. r urroughs : .Alfred M. Randolph: Charles S. Stringfellow : Charles R. Grandy: .A. L. Fur- coon; lohn S. Hansborough ; and C. F. rioodwvn. Honorary members were ' illiam 11. Taliaferro, Hugh I ' .lair Grigsby. and Idiomas Punn Erglish. It is ahnost certain that there were fifteen or twenty more members dur- ing these twelve years, but their names cannot yet be given. From 1861 to i8( _ the old Chapter took another long siesta. Ci)c 1912 Colonial Ccbo 67 Theta Delta Chi (Founded at L ' nion College. 1S4S.) CHARGES. Beta Cornell University, 1870.

Landed upon an inhospitable coast, without homes, schools or cliurches, surrounded bv t ' cacherous savages, it is small wonder that little of im|)ortance along educa- tional lines was undertaken for some time after the landirg of the settlers. What, then, could lie exj ected of the colonists in the direction of iini)roving their Indian cortemporaries, when the children of the colonists received only the most meagre of educational advantages? The clergv who accompanied the first settlers brought Bibles and Prayer Books. These men were the pioneers of education in the colonies and education had its first impulse, both among colonists and Indians, from these ministers of the Gospel. It was to convert the Indian from his idolatry and superstition to a rational view of God that these good men carried the arts of life and civiliza- tion into the primeval forests and sought to enlighten the ignorant and darkened mirds of their savage inhabitants. It was with the opening of the minds of these red men to the Christian religion that their education began. I ' ho history of John Eliot, known as the Apostle to the Indians, is proof that something was accom])lished for the religious and educational advancement of the aborigines. This English clergyman arrived in the Massachuseits Bay Colony on November i). 1631. He was followed bv the voung woman to whom he hid been betrothed in England, and. on her arrival, thev were marrie 1. We soon hear of Eliot preaching at Ro.xbury. Mass.. to a .small congregation of people who had followed him from his old home. He was something of a ])oet. for he was ertrusted. in connection with Richard Mather, with the preparation of the metrical versicn of the Psalms. This was known as the ' ' T av State Psalm Book, and is famous as being one of the earliest co ' onial pub ' ications. In 1646 an order was issued requesting the elders of the churches to take into corsideration the subject of the conversion of the Indians. John Eliot had already given much attention to this subject. He had commenced the study of the Indian tongue with a native. — a jjregnant witted young brave — who had mastered Erglish. Eliot was especially interested in the Indians, as he believed that they were the lost tribes of Israel, — a prevalent notion of cur ancestors. On il-.e 28th of October, 164. , John Eliot, with three others, proceeded, for the frst time in history, to address a gathering of North American Indians €bc 1912 Colonial Ccbo 93 on tlie subject of Cliristiai ' it . His sermon, which was of the ortliodox length of one hour ami a quarter, a interpreted, sentence by sentence, by the preg- nant witteil young brave, and was received with due gravity by the assembly. It is related that the Indians propounded several questions, but history does not record what they were. Eliot ' s enthusiasm for this work grew with his sticcess, and he founded a town eighteen miles from lioston peopled by ]iraying Indians. Money was collected in Englard and transmittetl to the co ' ony to support preachers and teachers. In a letter written to Josiali W ' inslow. the first native American (Gov- ernor of Massachusetts, in i64y, Eliot had expressed his desire to translate some portion of the Scriptures into the Irdian tongue. We find him in 1631 engaged in the task, but with no hope to see the Ilible translated, nnicli less printed, in m} ' days. He. however, kept steadily at work, and the English Society for the Propagation of the Gospel in New England furnishing the funds, the New Testa- ment in the Indian tongue was set up in the colony at Harvard and published in 1661. l:i 1663 the Old Testament was added to it. a Catechism and a trans- lation of the Hay State Psalm liook being included in the volume. This P.ib ' .e was the first, and for nearly a centurv after, the onlv version of the Scriptures published in the colonies. .Several communities of Christian Indians had been formed, but. with the breaking out of King Philip ' s War, these communities were broken up ard the members either massacred or scattered, and the fruit nf I ' .tiot ' s self-sacrificing labors largely destroved, 1 he Mayhew family furnished several generations of teachers antl preachers to the Indians. They were familiar with the Irdian language and possessed great ability and learning. Thomas Mayhew, who had been a mer- chant in Southampton. England, came to New Englard in 1631. He was Gov- ernor of Martha ' s ineyard and adjacent islands, and a sturdy friend of the aborigines. His son. Tliomas, was a minister and missionary. After convert- n-g upward of ,,ne hundred Indians to Christianity, he was lost at sea. . t the age of seventy, his father, after the son ' s death, continued the work. During Kmg Phdip ' s War these Indian converts kept aloof from the conflict and guarded their friend from tlie foe. proving that loyalty and gratitude grow in the soil of humanity, whether civilized or savage. It would be a congenial task to go over the labors of other devoted men who gave their lives to the desperate eflfort of educating and converting the Indians. It was a noble work. and. whatever may be said of the comparatively small results of so great effort and sacrifice, the undertaking of so Herculean a task furnishes additional proof of the (luality of the men who were numbered among this country ' s colonists.

As oiT; enters the door an improved Westinghouse switchboard, about ten by ten feet, is sctn upnn the right. Ne.xt are seen the two ponderous engines of seventy-five horse pow ' er each, spotless and gli ' stcning, making three hundred revolutions, and turning the dynamos with a speed of 1,200 revolutions per minute. The generators are fifty kilowatt machines, and furnish perfect and ample illumination for the numerous incandescent bulbs and arc lights in tlie buildings and on the campus. In the next room are the two huge boilers of two hundred horsepower each. These distribute heat to the main college building, and furnish pressure for the engines. Overhead is a net work of pipes leading to the engines, pumps, etc. The largest, a ten-inch pipe, carries the heat to the various buildings, the pressure being auti)matically regulated liy a reducing valve. . I1 pipes are enclosed in the latest invention for conserving heat, terra cotta con- duits containing eighty-five per cent, of magnesium. This is a great improvement over asbesto.s, and is a part of the great scheme of economical operation which characterizes the whole system. In addition the building contains a pump room, and a room for coal storage. On the wdiole this modern plant is one of the best to be found in the colleges of the country, and its erection has greatly increased the comfnTt, convenience, appearance and geneial ei|uipment nf the college.

The Year ' s Work CH year for ni ire than a quarter of a centur - some pen has re- tjA oonleil the progress nf our local Young MeiTs Christian . ssocia- tion, and its urtold influence for the uplift of our student hody. Year after year these notes have heen written with a degree of ])ride because of what has been done toward s]3readiiig the kingdom of God. Space will not permit anv details corccrning its ])rogress since the first organization : it is sufficient to sav that hv untiring efl: ' ort on the part of the active members their work has been crowned with success, and to-day the .Association .stands stronger than ever in its endeavor to do the work of the Master. All realize, however, that the [iresent prosperous condition is due directly to the work of those who have gone before. a: ' d we do not claim any of the credit which is justly due them. When we Icok over the work of the past vear, there are several reasons why we feel encouraged. I shall mention but two: First, the men wdio compose the cabiret are nh e men : iren who know how to do things, and do thcni well. Under the jiresidency of Mr. ' aden there have been a few changes which have made the Y. M. C. A. a stronger and more cfticient organization. Probably the mosf important of these changes was the i: stituting of the po ' ic - s -stem. Tiy ibis .system each officer is required to write a policv in which is stated in definite form just what his department intends to accoiiiplish. This gives each man an end for which to work. The new svstem has mc ' with marked su ' -ress. .A great deal (if credi ' is a ' so due Mr. Lee. chairniar of the Tlible Studv Committee, and 104 Cljc 1912 Colonitil Crilo liis oo-workcrs.

The other dei)artments of the Assocaition luue been doing good work, and need to be commended. The second reason I wish to me; tion, fur these notes would not be complete without doing so, is that we have had the helinng hand of the FaTrulty. We realize that they are busy men. but they frequently consent to give public lectures before the Association. The lectures are always helpful and instructive. It is also recessary to state that we have the hearty co-operation of the ministers of the city. The year has been full of activities. In the early part of October the annual receiJtinn was held in the dining hall. During the evening ten-mirute speeches were given by Dr. J. S. Wilson. Dr. Vnu: g. Rev. Al. J. Hoover. Rev. E. R. Jones, and others. The new men at college were interested, and many became members of the Association. ( )ne of the most helpful features of the veekly program was a series of lectures on the subject, Facts a College Man .Should Know, delivered by Prof. John W. Ritchie and Dr. D. J. King. These lectures were very instructive, and thev always attracted a large number of students. During tlie year Mr. liaer, the State Student ' s Secretarv, has been with us several times, rendering nuich valuable aid in the work, and his visits are always a pleasure. Mr. H. F. Ilaker, the lioys ' State .Secretary, and Mr. Morley, of Xew ork, also favored us with a visit, both of whom delivered interesting addresses. Mr. Jackson Davis, an alunnius of William and Mary, gave an illustrated lecture on The Xegro Life in the South. Dr. Weatherford promised to be with us for a few days in April, and while we carnot be sure of his visit, it will be a great ]5leasure to have him with us. In the near future Dr. Montgomery will eive a series of lectures on the subject. The Social. Religious, and Economic Condi- tions in China. These lectures are intended to arouse new interest in mission work. This can InU gi ' e the readers of these notes a general idea of the Asso- ciation ' s work, and what it is doing. Aluch could be said of the benefits derived by our delegates at the convention at Charlottesville last spring, and from the Y. M. C. . . Institute held at Randolph-Macon College last fall. Something should be said about the coming cnnvention to be held al Roanoke in . pril, did rot space forbid. The ' . . 1. C. . . at William and Mary is but one small l)ranch of the great system which is ever widening its induence. stri ing. b ' the help of Cod, to follow the command, Co ve inti. all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.

Xevertheless, little is commonly known of its origin; ro easily accessible account of ils growth is extant; and even readily demonstrable fact of the institution and era that ga e it its inception has been sometimes treated as a doubtful matter. IJexortl a shadow of any reasonable doulit, the Honor System, developing slowly throughout the eighteenth century, had assumed its essential characteristics by the session of 1801. and the place of its nativitv was the College of William and Mary. There is no parallel in the annals of .American education to the brilliant line of fanujus alumni arising out of a student body so small : for this the country has given her full credit. Out nf her came the first and most famous of Greek- l.etter Societies, the Phi Beta Kappa, the begirning alike of the .American col- legiate literary society, the fraternity, and the honor society ; out of her develnjied tile elective system of studies; she first instituted in America courses in nuuiicipal and constitutional law, ])olitical econoniv, historv and modern languages; she first adopted the method of teaching by lectures and of awarding collegiate prizes; out of her, directly or indirectly, sprang such institutir)ns of learring as the I ' niversity of X ' irginia. the Episcojjal Theological Seminary of ' ' irginia, and the Alassachusetts Institute of Technology. The richest and most fauKius of American colleges, and identified with a host of powerful leaders, ' illiam ;uid AIar ' was able to determine, as no single other college might do, the ]jatli that American education was to tread. For her part in determining the char- acter of American student societies and the rature of the collegiate curriculum, the college has received at least a partial recognition; but rich as she is in jewels, she could ill afford to lose the very frontlet of her crown ; she is the ' irginia college out of whose honor for honor the . niericar Honor System was liorn. Other colleges may claim their nolile share in the develo])ment and dis- -seniination of the sy.stem and the blending of it with a system of student goverr- menr, but in es.sence and principle the system itself had its birth at William and Mary. . frecpiert misconception has given to the I ' niversity of X ' irginia the credit of its creation, Init indi.sputable and documentary proof shows that before Teffcr.son had established the noble Universitv that was to be endowed with so Cf)c 1912 Colonial €ct)o 109 maiiv of his Alnui .Mater ' s graces, the Honor System va officially acknowledged at William an l Alary. The earliest statement of the system is found in the printed rules of U- ham and Mary, dated 1817. Rule 5 cor.tains the statute that, Any student may he required to declare his guilt or innocence as to any particular offense of which he may he suspected ; and should any student refuse to make such declara- tion when required to do so, he shall lie suspended for a week, ard if at the expiration of that time he shall still refuse to make such declaration, he shall be deemed guilty and be punished accordingly. And should the perpetrators of any mischief, in order to avoid detection, deny their guilt, then may the Society require anv student to give evidence on his honor touching this foul enormity that the college may not be polluted by the ])resence of those who have showed themselves equally regardless of the laws of horor, the princi])les of morality and the precepts of religion. From the faculty record book of the same date we learn that the method of investigating any known misdemeanor was to call the roll of the students in the accustomed manrer. each student either declar- ing his innocence or acknowledging his guilt. (.)n July 6, 1830. there was enacted a Statute for the Good Governmert of the College of William and Mary, which gives a clearer phrasing to the sys- tem and approaches more e.xactly the s])irit of our jjresent day Honor System. Section 5 of this statute specifies the manner in which a member of the faculty shall corfer with a student whom he suspects of misdemeanor, and expressly states: . nd if he shall deny on his Honor as a Gentleman the oft ' ense of which it has been lielieved he was guilty, such denial .shall be taken as conclusive evi- dence of his iiniocence. In Section 15 of the sarne statute, it is further en- joined: Hut in all cases when a Student, or Students, shall be believed to have committed an Offense and shall on his Honor as a Gentleman deny it and aver his imiocence. such declaration shall be taken by a Professor as conclusive proof of his innocence, because the convocation is satisfied that no Student will degrade himself by a fal sehood, and th-it .-m ap])eal to his Honor will never be made in vain. These statutes were passed not l)v the faculty which was then slyleil the Society. but bv the Hoard of ' isitors. the convocatfTjn. As board and faculty were alike recruited from the ranks of former studerts. the full devebip- ment of the Honor System was furthered by their sympathetic ap])reciation of its spirit. The fullest explanation of the System in its later period of development is that given b - Professor 15everle ' Tucker in 1834. in an irtroductory address to his law class. Judge Tucker was an eminent jurist, a ])olished writer and speaker, the correspondent of Poe, who deferred to his literary judgment, ai ' d Carlysle. vlio respected his economic and liolitical opinions; and a foremost no € )c 1012 Colonial Ccho leader of Southern thought. Especially had he possessed every ojjportunity to know whereof he spoke. His father, the distinguished St. Cjeorge Tucker, had been a student of the college and Professor of Law from 1790 to 1804. Judge Tucker himself had attended the college as early as 1801, in company with such men as Justice P. P. liarbour, Senator B. W. Leigh ard General W ' infield Scott. To him, therefore, the institutions of William and Mary were the traditions of a lifetime: the college was. as he said, the scene of the sixirts and strifes of his boyhood, the emulations of youth, the labors of his declining age. His words are fortunately preserved for us, as the results of the petition of his class, in the Southern Literary Messenger of December. 1S34. The citation will carry greater weight because its author states that the subject is one in which every memlier of the faculty has an ec|ual and common interest. If there be arything by which the L ' niversity of illiani and .Mary has been advantageously distinguished, it is the liberal and magi-animous character of its discipline. It has been the study of its professors to cultivate at the same time the intellect, the principles and the deportment of the student, laboring with equal diligence to infuse the spirit of the scholar and the spirit of the gentleman. He comes to us as the gentleman. As such we receive and treat him, ai:d reso- lutely refuse to know him in any other character. He is not harassed by petty regulations: he is not insulted and annoyed by impertinent surveillance. Spies and informers have no countenance among us. ' e receive 1:0 accusation but from the conscience of the accused. His honor is the only witness to which we appeal: and should he be even capable of prevarication or falsehood, we admit no ]iroof of the fact. . . . The effect of this svstem. in inspiring a high and scrupulous sense of honor, and a scorn of all disingenuous artifice, has been ascertained by long experience, and redounds to the praise of its authors. . . . This system is thus believed to afford the best securitv against such oft ' enses as stain the name of the ])er])etrator. Of such our records bear no trace: nor is tiiere. perhaps, a single individual of all who have matriculated here, that would lilusli to meet any of his old associates in this school of honor. Again in 1847. o the day before the closing of the session. Judge Tucker addressed the students on this subject. Having referred to the early alumni of the college, he said : Thus did ' illiam and Mary receive the impress of their character and take the lead in that great experiment in the discipline of the youthful mind, whirh substitutes candid appeals tu tlie better feelings of the pupil, and a frank reliance on his honor, for espionage, severity and the restraints of the cloister. The experiment has succeeded so well that the example has. to a certain extent, been everywhere followed. P ut William and Mary still kept in advance of all the rest. Emboldened by success, she went on steadily to establish a system alto- gether her own. You. Gentlemen, reed not be told what that svstem is. Voti Cf)c 1912 (Colonial eci)o Ul need not be told of the unreserved confidence reposed in the honor of the Student, who is thereby made a co-worker with his preceptors in the moral training and discipline of his mind. . . . To liis o ' a ' ii sense of duty and interest, fortified bv his plighted x ' ord, the enforcement of this scanty but impor- tant code is committed, while academic censures are orly resorted to in extreme and rare cases. . . . The result of the experiment has been as brilliant as its conception. (The italics are not. of course, in the original.) No clearer nor more acceptable exposition of the principles of the Honor System as it exists to-day is extant than the full text of these two addresses, which, published in the Southern Literary Messenger in the first half of the nine- teenth centurv. made the character of the system widely known. It was significant that this substitute for formal discipline is uniformly referred to by Professor Tucker as a system of honor, and that, widely read as was the Messenger in its day, — a day made famous In- the Poe contributions. — tliere was no challenge to the prior claims of illiam and Mary as the author and developer of the s-ystem. The period of innovation at Mlliam and INIary was 1779, when James Madison was the youthful president and Thomas Jefferson the leading spirit amo;ig the ' isitors. To this period President Lyon G. Tyler ascribes the be- ginning of the Honor System. It is evident that Judge Tucker attributes its origin to the character and traditions of ' irginia life out of which it developed as a natural growth; She ( ' illiam and lary) did but become the natural exponent of the character of the people to which she owed her existence. Clearly it was an evolutiorary growth, and as a principle and a practice, it grew more definite as the testing of it proved its efficacy and its strength. As early as the statutes of 1817. its essence was officially set forth, and was no doubt much more completely practiced since Professor Tucker, whose ex])erience arte- dated this period, as a student, by sixteen years, testifies to the long experience by which it bad been tested in 1834. By the latter date, the system had certainly reached its full development as an institution officially acknowledged and ac- cepted by every member of the faculty. Details of students ' guardianship might not perhaps even then have been fully matured, but the system itself. clearly defined and based upon the sourdest of principles, stood forth in splendid outline as one of the noblest of the many memorable achievements of William and Mary in the field of corstructive education. Like many other great things, the secret of its success was in its sim- plicity sublime: it was, in Professor Tucker ' s worc ' s. committine to the students own sense of dtity and interest, fortified by their plighted word, the en forcement of their code of honor : it was. as President Thomas R. Dew slid of it in his closing address to the students of 1839, merely treating gentlemen as tbev deserve to be treated. -, c- -n- J. MES SouTiiALr, ir.sox.

The Catalogue, published each session for distribution among prosjiective .students, fonnulales the claims of William and Alar - for the attention of those interested in obtaining a col.ege education under the most inspiring traditional and historical influences. The comiirehensive curriculum set forth in its ]jages gives the reader a clear idea as to the thoroughness of the school it represents, while the exposition of tl.e Honor System and kindred traditions of the old Col- lege ajjpeal to every one who peruses them. Tlic irHliani and Mar Biillclin, puljlished fmni time to time to keep fresh in the minds of the American people the aims and work of the oldest college in the western hemisiihere, varies in form, but never in attractiveness and excel- lence. The last numb ' er is a handsome little booklet, with the official Orange and White of the College worked into its cover, which latter is embellished by a hand- some seal. The LUcrary Maga::iuc. ]niblished l)y the Phoenix and Philomathean Lit- erary Societies, ranks with those of the most prominert colleges of the country, and the critical departments of its numerous exchanges teem with commendatory notices. The present year ' s numbers mark the summit of its success, and estab- lish a standard difficult to surpass. The Flat Hat. published weekly by a staff working under the direction of L-. William Kavaraugh Doty, its founder and promoter, is the latest addition to the list of College publications. .Appearing each Tuesday of the college year. Its pages contain a record of the week ' s college happenings. The Colo. i. i, Echo, the annual publication, must speak for itself. In former years it has held a distinct and high position among the annuals of the college world, and it has been the aim of this year ' s staff not to lower its st andard. Perhaps the most valuable of the |niblications. for the new student, is The Handbook, printed under the supervision of the College Y. M. C. A. This little volume aims to protect the uninitiated from the natural errors which lie in wait for them. P.y means of its suggestions many difficulties are cleared from the paths, and the problem of becoming adjusted to the College life is much simpli- fied. The Handbook contains much useful information as to the various Col ' ege actntties, and is a boon to everv newcomer and a valualile aid to old students.

The idea bad been uppermost in Ills mind for the entire ])receding summer, and ujioii arriving at the College in September, steps were early taken to establish this new publication, which was to be the first newspaper ever printed at the College of William and Mary. It was decided, almost simultaneously with the idea of originating the new jjajier. to call it Tin- Flat Hat. in honor and commemoration of the Flat Hat Club which, was born at the College in 1750. and which some suppose to have beer, the jirecursor and ]irototype of the Phi lieta Kappa Fraternity, also founded at Wil- liam and Mary in 1776. This name was adopted with the permission of George l reston Coleman. Esq.. of Williamsburg, wdio. as the great-grardson of St. George Tucker, a member of tfie Club and the seeming custodian of its effects. was in possession of c|uite a respectable amount of authentic data, which he kindly jilaced at the disposal of the Editor-in-Cliief. .Among the distirguished members of the Club were Thomas Jefferson. Edmund Randolph, the Reverend Mr. Gwatkin. St. George Tucker. George Wylhe. and Robert Baylor. Jr. The badge of the Club was circular in form with a projection for a ring, to be used doubtless on a watch chain. Engraved on the one side was an elaborate coat-of-arms : on the other were the letters F. H. C. in a large monogram. Beneath was the following date and molto near the exergue : Nov. XI MDCCL.

Ckowixc — a form of worship given to Dionysius. — There was once a great wit and he was called Bob, the son of Jack. ow this rinb, the son of Jack, with man ' of his friends ai:d followers, went forth to give sacrifice unto Dionysius. a great and much-beloved god. Now this god did many strange things, for he made liob. the son of Jack, a great orator, and he did speak with his comjianions long and eloquently, although there were marv interruptions to his speech, because the people remembered that the night was to sacrifices unto Dionysius rathen than to listen to Bob, the son of Jack. lUit he told them many things while they did offer up their sacrifices, for he told them who Rostrand was. and Maud Adams, and also Charticleer, the most famous of all cocks. And he stood upon a stumji of a tree and said. Comrades, you have often called me a great orator, but I tell ye that 1 am no orator, even as Anthony once said, but a great actor, even as Booth or Maud .Adams, for T will show you how Chanticleer crow-ed for the coming dawn. .And thereupon Bob, the son of Jack, descended from the stump and did climb a tall and straight pine, and there at the to|} he did crow mucli to Sweet .Aurora, the goddess of dawn. And wdieii Sweet Dawn did begin to smile upon the sleeping earth, the followers of Dionysius arose and begar to depart to rest upon their beds of down. Thev called to Bob. the son of Jack, to come €lK 1912 Colonial €d)o 127 down from his lofty percli. for Sweet Dawn had heard his soft and nuich-inter- rupted crowing. ISiit Bob the son of Jack heard them not, so all the followers of Dionvsius departed except Ted. the soi: of W ' i ' .l, who would not leave his de- voted comrade. Bob, the son of jack. I ' p spoke fair Ted, the son of Will, and said, Sweet Bob if thou wilt come tlown from thy lofty pinnacle, I will gi -e thee what, there is in this cup, being the remains of the feast to thine most beloved god. Ard Ted, the son of Will, did hold up a cup filled with a pale yellow liquid, which had froth ujion it. When the doughtv Bob, the son of Jack, did see this jiale liqtiid which havl froth upon it, he let go his hands and did fall down to where his beloved Ted, the son of ' ill, was standing; but the god Dionvsius did watch over him and he came to no hurt. ' erily, climbing and crowing go hand in hand, and Dionvsius is a great sod. Fhkt or ped.m, e.xtricmitiks. — A dis- ease due to the Elephantosis (ierm. It is very common among students, and some- times it commits great ravages among the teaching force. Sometimes when the lights are tiu ned low a fearful legend is told, which runs as follows : In the palaezoic age, when Bish, the parobolic one, was in his tenth year at college, and many years be- fore the reign of ye mighty I-dit. and aliout t ' lie time the Phoenix bird triumpher over the Star, there came into this region a youth, who immediately became famous. And this fame lav in his feet, for the Lord had blessed him and made his feet large and mightv. And when he trod upon the campus the earth rocked even to its verv foundatiors, and the i)uildings swa -ed and tremljled at his step. Xow about this time there arose three great papers in the land, which thundered loud and long over the great and im]iortant things and attairs that trouliled the land. And they were called The Echo. The Lit. and The Flat Hat. Xow wiien these papers heard of the far-famed youth, they sang muchly over the size of this youth ' s feet, and a]ipointed men to measure their size every tenth year. And when the }Outh read of the size of his feet in these pa])ers he said, X ' erily, i have put my foot in it, and it is evident that where I put my feet T shall crush. . nd when the editors heard what the youth had said they trembled, ar.d it was good reason that they trembled, for the weight of these said feet oppressed them much by reason nf their increase, until one morning their roaring becme re- duced to a little whimpering whine, ard their laments to suffocating groans.

The M jrl, ' bearers of mortar, the masons laboriously cementing stone upon !2 s £U stone, are deemed too lowly to merit even a rapid glance from the passerby wlu). later, standing licfore a massive fabric or a marble memorial, feels his heart stir with pride and patriotism. He forgets that only by the toil of tiiose humble laborers was that splendid edilice made possible. En- chanted by the sjilendor and beauty of colunms and arches, the hewr. rocks upon which they rest are forgotten. The memories that linger in our minds bear witness that the year has not beer williout its lofty structures in the deiiartment of Athletics. Yet as we recall Ihe victories of the gridiron and the diamond, we must nevertheless confess that the year has been essentially one of the building of foundations. Through this building our future achievements on the athletic field will come to surpass those of the present in splendor. Afar olT our alunmi proudly gaze at the spires rising toward the sky, scarcely thinking of the builders. Near at hand the steady stream brings into view the student, driftirg with the tide. Upon his mind is imprinted an indelible picture of those towering walls, his attertion may even be attracted momentarily by the builders, but the stream sweeps him on before he sees the foundation they are laying. That athletics at William and Mary has made great progress in the last few years is attributable to two factors. First, through the energies of an enthu- siastic worker athletic governance has beeti established on a firm basis. Second, the changes which the College has urdergone during the present session have been instrumental in placing athletics on a firm footing financially, and i laying the foundation for the building of superior athletics. The presert system of athletic governance provides for tlie control of matters of general policy bv an Athletic Council composed of the officers of the Athletic Association, team managers, coach and phvsical director, faculty and student representatives. While this bodv in no way restricts the powers of the maragers, it has succeeded in eliminating thoughtless management. Finances are under the control of the Council through the treasurer of the Association. The coach is the purchasing agent. The time is past when managers could begin a season by incurring a debt and close it bv increasing that obligation. Gone also are the days when college spirit was permitted to be killed by the transfer of home games to some other place for financial reasons. The present baseball man- ager has arranged the strongest schedule ever presented, with nine games on Cary Field, three championship games away from home, and the remaining four on BASKET BALL TEAM Lett to right, top row : Wilson.

More important still, as a result of this system, has l)een the eliniiration of politics from the election of managers. The Council makes the nominations to tlie . ssociation. the names of V e nominees being kept secret uriil the .Vssociation has convened for the pur- pose of electing the manager. These are a few of the important results brought about by a system that has been higiily successful here for four years. The man to whom its establishment and perfection is due is Professor William Keeble. hirancial conditions have been greatly bettered owing to the coach be- coming a salaried officer of the College. This was accomplished by combining in one man the offices of physician, coach and physical director. Though the ath- letic appropriation was somewhat diminished in consequence of t his change, better guarantees can be oifered and better equipment secured. It was a hai)py day for William and Mary when the Hoard of isitors decided to employ a permanent physical director ard coach. The value to ath- letics of a coach who is a fixture at the College cannot be overestimated. Every disadvantage which a coach for a single season labors under he is now freed from. He can go a step further than trairing those few men who are chosen for the team, and can give personal instruction to whomsoever shows ability along some line because of his possibilities. Such a coach will feel a personal interest ir the work : he looks forward because his work lies not in the present alone : he builds athletes for the future as well as perfects those of to-day. What Professor Keeble has done in obtaining sound athletic governance, i r. Yoimg is accomplishing with great success i;: his department. Bostonian by birth, he has brought an atmosphere of energetic hustle that is contagious. Dr. Young- is a graduate of the Springfield Training School and a graduate in medicire at the University of Pennsylvania. At the former institution he played football, baseball and hockey: at Penn, he was for two years a member of the ' arsity hockey team, and for three years star half-back on the X ' arsity eleven. Xot once during his career at Penn. was he shifted from his position as half-back. Dr. YdUrg is thoroughly familiar with every phase of athletics. In addi- tion he has the knack of keeping a great many busy at once, inducing a great many students who do not try to make the team to engage in some form of ath- letic activity. Three elevens were seen on Cary Field during the entire season. Calisthenics, mat. bar and ring work, wrestling, boxing, bag-punchnig, running, l asketball and indoor baseball alternated in rapid succession during the winter. During the short time he has been at William and Mary, the majority of studerts have in some way come under his instruction. Dr. Young is building athletes, and while his success is not yet so evident o- the athletic field, the football team he built of green material is indicative of what can be expected. It is hoped by BOXING AXD WRESTLIXG CLASS SCRUB FOOTBALL TEA.M 142 € K 1912 vCoIoiiial €cl)o all that Dr. ' ouiig will remain at illiaiu ami . lai- - Idiig enough to reap the harvest of his labors. One other act of the Hoard of isilors is so im])orlart in this connection that mention nnist lie made of it. The establishing of the illiam and .Mary Academy is fundamental in insuring better athletics for the College, though at the ])resent working some hardship. Three me ' .i on the .Academy eleven this year would have strengthened the ' arsit a|)])reciabl -. The value of having expe- rienced men in football, basketball and baseball enter College, as compared with the green material heretofore jn-edominatirg at the opening of each season, is c]uite evident. The Academy has turned out very creditable teams this year, but its athletes are not training themselves for the Academy alone. Their aim is the A ' arsity. and when they realize their aim. they will represent the College well. With only two letter me;: back, our football ]M-ospects this year were not encouraging, to say the least. lini we remember how T)r. Vouiig drilled an inexperienced s(|uad and tinally placed a team on the field that played the chani])- ions their hardest game, ard defeated our old-time rivals of Richmond College in the fourth successive victorw we not onh- feel the vear to have been far from unsuccessful, but we ])ay one more tribute to the skill of our coach. I ' .asketball was equally successful. The baseball season o]iens auspiciously. Miat the future will bring to us this ' ear we dare not ijredict. but we can liojie that the I ' rophecy of the editor wdio preceded us will repeat itself. .Mready in our imagination we see flitting across our ])ath the faint glimmer of the Championship Cup of ii;ii. W lien the season 0] ened and we learned we could not for financial reasons emj hjy a coach, who but a iirophet could ha e writter that sentence. . nd when we lost the first two champions ' .iip games, and knew we had to win the remaining four even to tie for the cup, what but self-reliance and grit made it jMssible? Two names stand out iironii- !:ently as contributing most toward making those remaining four victories and toward winning the cup in the final game with Randolph-Macon. That he took a double-header from Richmond College on Saturcla -, and won the championship from Randolph-Alacon the following Monday, will always make . - itke Sjiencer dear to William and Afarv. ' hen at the beginning of the season it became known we were to have no coach, a young man of the town modestly offered his aid. He did i:ot pretend to be a coach, or even a great plaver, but he had two ideas with regard to winning games in baseball : a team must Ijat and it must run bases. These two points he drilled incessartly — the other points took care of themselves, and by the batting aiul liase-ruiming of our team, aided bv the pitching of Spencer, he won the cuyi for William and Alary. That man was Fred R. Savage. The year has been one of building: foui:d3tions have been erected and the plans have been drawn. e can but hope that the structure to be erected in the future ma - be as beautiful and dear to us as was that (Die of which the cbamjiionshi]. cu]) of njii is } ' inbolical.

Everylime LJill hears about the little wirr affair that I tried In pull uff last Finals he lets out one of those loud Hcv ' ir « ft= ' ' s of his. liill ' s laugh always gets on my nerves, for it sounds l i like a cross between a hyena and a donkey, and of all sounds, the one that makes me real angry is the braying of a nnile ' s pa. So when Bill gets off one of those laughs of his, I run for a slat to change him into a Christian. This is how it happened. I was silting u[ in my room one day. with my feet resting comfortably on the table, smoking a cigarette and rejoicing over having finished all of my exams, when Uill came in with some letters. ' ' Hello, Bill, got any letters for me? T said. ■ ■es. here are four! (iee whiz, you are popular. Finished all your exams ' : ' ep, just finished my last a few minutes ago. 1 replied opening my letters. The first letter was from home, enclosing a large check, nill. Dad was some good to me; just cast your eye over that slip. I called out. as I threw him my letter from home. I opened the next letter, which was from Susie, the sweetest little girl that ever came to a college dance or you ever had ilie good fortune to meet. I had scarcely opened the letter before I jumjied up from my chair and began to cut a war dance about the room. She is coming. Bill, the sweetest little girl that you ever laid your eyes on. lioopee ! Ra ! Ra ! I cried as I danced about the room, knocking over in my joy half a dozen chairs, the table and a score of books. 1 started to tackle Bill, from sheer happiness, but he sung out sort of sarcastically; f say, Ir. Jack Wellington, V.sq.. goat of the lu Mu fraternity, what in the name of his satanic Majesty himself are you doing? But, Bill, I cried, calming down a little, if you knew that the jirettiest. sweetest, dearest, cutest, finest, dandiest — Ah, cut it. Bill cried, haven ' t 1 heard you these nine uioiuhs rave and rave over that girl? By the way you talk, Susie nuist be the greatest girl thai ever wore skirts. B.ye the bye, thought you told me yesterday that you were going to take that Miss I ' annie . lcl.aurin to our gernian. There is a letter there of yours that looks mighty like her handwriting. Il ' my excitement I had forgotten all about my other letters, and I began to feel a sort of uneasiness creeii over me. 1 ]u ' cl cd up the letter from the floor, 182 Ci)c 1012 Colonial €c )o where 1 had (h ' opiicd it in niv cxcitemeiu. 1 tore it open ami read it. If some one had hit nie over tlie head with a chili I conldn ' t have felt more dazed or be- wildered. The letter ran as follows; JlNF. 6. IQI — Dear JcuK-. — I liavc fouiid that 1 can come down to the Finals and I am just per- fectly wild over going to the Mti .Mu gernian with you. Won ' t it be glorious! Your gernian was so lovely last year, and to tell you a secret, I thought you fellows gave the classiest dance I have ever been to. I have heard lots of girls say the same thing. Well, good-bye. Will sec you to-morrow evening at the train. Don ' t fail to meet me. F. N.N IE. I was siniply what dn might call llimllambusticated, and in the words of JJill, 1 felt like a parallelopi])ed in ( )ld .Mar . nglo-Sax ' s luiglish class. I said nothing to Hill, but opened the ne.xt letter, which ran thus: June 5, 191— Dear Jack. — Have been away on a trip and have just gotten back, and much to my surprise I found your letter waiting for nic. It is perfectly dear of you to want me 10 come down to the Finals, and you can bet I am not going to say you nay. I haven ' t for- gotten the dandy german you gave last year. What a time we will have! Will be on the morning train. Don ' t fail to meet me. Alice Campbell. Well holy smoke, it 1 don ' t be doggoned and — 1 cried aloud, as 1 ilropped the letter. Don ' t say it. Jack. It is some hard lines, but you shouldn ' t ask but ore girl at a time; you see they can ' t resist our germa ' ii and yotir jileasant smile. How many are coming? Bill interrupted me. Three, I cried miserably, as I picked up my cap and started for the door. Jack, haven ' t I always said that you were a flirt and a woman-trapper? Bill yelled after me. Ah, shut up! I cried, as I slammed the door. I ran out of the house to 1 didn ' t krow or care where, for all 1 wanted was to get my brain clear, so as to think of some way out of this dilemma, and also to get away from Bill ' s taunts. T went over to the college and strolled over to the far end of the campus where I thought I would be alone, but to my surprise I met Bob Loving and a pretty girl out walking. ' hen Bob saw me be shouted for me to come over to where he was. I hastened over to see what he wanted, and without more ado he introduced me to his jjretty companion. IMiss Radcliff, let me introduce you to Mr. Jack Wellington. Jack is going to be vour ])artner for the Mu Mu dance. That ' s O. K., isn ' t it Jack? ' ' You could have knocked me over with a feather. Here T was being ii:- troduced to a girl and told that I was going to take her to the Mu lu dance, € )c 1912 Colonial (Ccfto 183 when I had already had three engagements for it; and what was worse, I had a cHstinct recollection of telling l!ob I would take his girl. So therefore I could only stammer and say: Eh — er, Miss Radcliff. you will do me a great pleasure hy going with me. 1 Thank you. Air. Wellington. she replied, Bob has just told me all abovu you, and I am sure we will get along fine together. Will see you to-morrow night, she added, as they walked away. Deeper and deeper you go. In the words of Alice, ' Things are getting curiouser and curiouser, I mumbled to myself. I started back to the Mn Mu house, for I saw that the campus was no place for me. I had hardly gone ten yards before I met Tonv Ransome, who hailed me with : I say. Jack. I have just put you down with my girl for the Mu Mu germar. You know that you told me that you would take her. Perfectly charmed, I yelled back to him. I was in a spirit of deviltry and didn ' t care. The more the merrier, I whispered to mvself. That ' s awful nice of jou. Jack. I know she will be pleased to go with you. And say. Jack, she is a corker, and I feel sure that you will like her, Tony replied, I left Tony and ran for my room. The place seemed to be haunted with girls who wanted to go to the Mu Mu german. But I hadn ' t gotten out of the danger zone yet, for I saw Jimmy Carbell walking over to meet me. I say, Jimmy, has your girl got a date for the Mu Mu dance? I would be delighted to take her, I shouted doggedly. Yes, — no, I don ' t believe she has. Will you take her? .Sure, — will be delighted, I answered. The sixth, I nuittered to my- self. When I reached the Mu .Mu house I saw Bud, Henry Williams ' bull ])up. lying asleep in the sun.

Bud, at half-past eigiit to-morrow night. Don ' t forget, I shouted, as I ran upstairs to my room. 1 found Bill still in the room. Have you found out how you are going to take those three girls to the german? he said, as I entered. You are mistaken ; it is rot three, it is six, I replied solemnly. What is up now? he asked, A hen T told him my experiences on the campus, he went into convul- sions of laughter, ani danced around the room like he was mad.

Since Jack has done this heinous crime out oi his pure villainy, let ' s make him take all of those girls to the dance, under the penaltv of being tarred and feathered. Hully ! shouted all. J!oys! r cried, beside mvself, 1 got mwself irto these dates mn ' nten- tionally. ' ou see, these girls didn ' t answer my letters and so 1 nalurally thought that they were not coming.

If you liave any regard for a brother, if you regard your- selves true -Mu .Mu ' s. if ou have any instincts of human compassion, von will help me out. Come, boys, and say you wi ' l. Can ' t do it: yon have got to take those girls! yelled all. How am 1 to do this? I asked. We can work out a wav, Lizzie Watson said. € K 1912 Colonial Ccljo 183 A conmiittee was then appointed to work out some system of maiiceuvers by which 1 could take all of the girls. It was found that all the seven were to stay very near to the Gymnasium, where we were to have the dance. So 1. could go and get each girl and Ijring her ti i the german and then make some excuse and immediately go for another. The fellow s agreed to make out all the girls ' cards, sprirkling my dances among all seven. Hut they refused to make any plan as to how I was to bring them home, as I had to work that out myself. ow that I had gotten into the mix-up, I said that 1 would be game to the end. The next day I met all the girls that were to come by train, ard escorted them to the various places where they were going to stay. .My f aimates en- joyed the escapade, and every time 1 met one of them. 1 would be greeted by : Has number seven arrived? I saw ninnber five a few minutes ago. and she is a stunner. Gee. you are a lucky dog. The night of the germai; came, and 1. in fear and Ucnihling, went fur my various girls. (.)f course the last girls were a little late, but these were okl- timers, and they hadn ' t finished dressing when I came for them, so they thought nothing of being late. ! told each girl when 1 reached the ( iym that 1 had to see about some refreshments, and so would have to turn them over to some of my fratmates. But it was impossible to keep the news of my escapade from getting around, and so everv time 1 passed an - one 1 was received with the sallies: Say. lack, how ' s nuinl)er five? Number four is certainly pretty. Have you danced with number seven yet ? In fact it seemed to ' me that everyone was wbisiiering or laughing at me. but 1 Ijore up as best I could, determined to get through with it somehow. The seven victims didn ' t ap]iear to have the least suspicion that anything was the matter. They were having a fine time, for their cards had been made out with the liest dancers at college. It was true that they gathered together in twos and threes, and then it was that 1 felt like going through the floor. 1 was tiie most afraid of .Susie Randoliib. for she was as quick as they make them, ard it was hard for anvthing to escape her. As the german progressed I became more gay, for I had found stags that agreed to take my girls home, and 1 had made it appear all right to the girls bv telling them some brilliant excuse. So I began to feel that if nothing ha])pened 1 wduld get through my escapade all O. K., but still I was unea.sy. When all the dances were over and the refreshmerts were served, I was cast into a state of uneasiness when 1 saw all seven girls suddeidv gather to- gether and begin to w]iis])er. 1 knew that the game was u]), — all mv schemirg was of no a ail. Susie stei)i)ed out into the middle of the ball-room floor, on r ill Jones ' arm. Hill addressed the assembly and told them that Miss Randolph wanieil to make a little s])eecli. and immeiliatel ' evervl)oil - became (|uiel.

What tlo }ou think, ladies, of a man who will conie and ask vou for the privilege of taking you to the dance, and then go and ask six other unsuspecting ladies? And what ' s more, he is so skilful that he actually hrings those seven maidens to the genuan without their heirg the wiser. And thereupon she ran over to where 1 was standing and pointed her finger at me. There stands the guilty one! she cried. I felt like sinking through the floor or jumping out of the window, hut my retreat was cut off, and so 1 had to face the assembly. e have decided, that is. we seven victims have decided, not to let hiiu take us home, for we are afraid that this villain might entrap our heart by his dark wiles. This, ladies and gentlemen, shall be our vengeance, Susie added. She went and brought all se en girls out in the center of the room where she was standing. I ' annie, she said, addressirg Faiuiie Mcl aurin, do 1 not speak the truth? Ves, he brought me. And me too, cried all the (jther five in cliorus. (jentlciuen. are there any among you who are free and unencumbered with ladies, and wish to befrierd seven sorrowful girls? At this request fifteen or twenty stags rushed forward and asked for the jirivilege of taking the distressed maidens hoiue. Girls, cried .Susie, after each girl liad chosen her escort, you must have some souvenir by which to remember the fickleness of man, and she came up to me and demanded my gloves, scarf, match safe, and my watch, and also my debater ' s medal, all of which she gave to each of the other girls. Reiuember. Mr. Wellington, that the man who tries to fool seven girls must have the genius of a hundred men. Mr. Gordon, didn ' t you say that you would see me home? she said as she turned to where he was starding. lint this was too much for me to l:)ear, for I rushed forward and seized .Susie, picked her up in my anus and rushed out of the ball-room, saying as I went : Ladies and gentlemen, although I have not wit enough to fool seven, I have strength enough to take one. Before I left . usie that fight 1 explained to her how 1 had gotten into the scrape, and she laughed much over the humor of it all. . he did not appear to be angry over it in the least. When I bade her good-night, she said : ' ■Jack, aren ' t you going to give lue soiuething as a souvenir to remember this night?

J fl |)on(lercd over at the time of its making, when the events recorded ifs i ' i ' are fresh in tlie minds of those whom it concerns. Such a histnrv lliwZ_yJiS «lij has nolliing to tell the meml)ers of the Class for whom it is written. until the lapse of years has made it the reviewing of a tale learned long before, and has almost effaced the memories of the one-time classmates and friends. i ut when Academy da s are long past, and the once familiar sights and sounds have faded and gone, then it is that a Class history may be read and en- joyed. Then it is thai the alumnus, wandering far from liis Alma Mater ard engrossed with the cares of the on-rushing tide of life, may have tender memories awakened in him. and fond rectillectiors recalled, by the sight of some account, some token, of his Academy years. And if this humble record should, in some future day, awaken in some member of the Class of 1912 a renewed and deejier love for the dear old scesrcs. the historian will not deem his labor to have been in vain. Xotwithstanding the crudeness of some of our gallant 1)oys from the coun- try, the infjuence-af the Seniors has materially benefited all stude::ts of the Due ' classes. The college men accuse us of being proud. Yes, we are proud ; proud of being the first Senior Academy Class of old William and Alary. There is not a man of our number who is rot worthy of special mention in this history, but as siiace does not permit us to write their individual histories, we shall make only brief mention of the achievements of some of our Class in the different pha.ses of Academy life. I ' lOth in literary anrl athletic departmerts our Class has made itself felt: for while some were struggling on the gridiron and diamond to achieve athletic glory, others were striving to hold up the standard of the Orange and Tilack l)y preparing debates ard orations, and writing for the magazine. In football our class cannot only claim representation, but we can boast of tlie playing of Shiers. Bane and Booth, all of whom liid fair to make a record on the gridiron in future years. We cannot say more of athletics, important as they are : suffice it to say that we have been well represented in everv branch, and with Fry. ' hitehead and dilliam upholding us in basketball, and Williams on the diamond, what shall hinder our glory? Tn leaving this for brief comment on other phases of Academv life, we should like to mention the names of those who have led the way up the heights €lK 1912 Coloiiitil CtI)o 193 of scholastic achievement and have already attained true greatness in knowletlge, but since some cannot claim this, we refrain. We shall leave this for Time to decide, and hid the scholarly ones write their history in the hearts of men. In literary society work ihe ahility of our Class cninot he duuhted, espe- cially when we mention the fact that liarnes. one of our number, by his excellency in declamation won his [)oints in the intersociety Contest over the Plii ' omathean representative. Likewise we would nnt forget to recognize the (lowing eliH|uence of Powers, (iivens, L. K., and Lackey; ard it is our opinion that they will sway at least a part of our country with their powers of speech. For fear that some patient reader ma}- sav that we have been neglectful of the fairer sex. we cannot overlook the calico sport. .- nd here the question ari.ses. Who is it? Shall we give his name? Xo, space will not permit a nar- rative, so we refrain. I ' .esides, we could not place the honor on one, two. or even three, for it is more or less a chronic affliction of the whole Class, the writer excepted. Kind reader, our task is firished. . s we look about us, m:inv pleasant memories come vividly before our minds, and then we think of the parting, the saddest of all times in our school life. Alany of us will part, perhaps never to meet again. To those who go. never to return, we exte: d our heartfelt wishes for their success, and to those who may return next vear to enter upon their college career, we wish much joy. We know thev will ever rememlier and ever cherish the days when we drank together at the fountain of learning. HlSTORLAN. Ll ' CILE. Luiilc. wlicn yi)u oiui 1 xciw ymtiig.

It was a strange and beautiful room, likely to linger in the nieniorv of those who knew its straii:ge and handsome owner. The walls were draped in heavy ))lack velvet, with liere and there just a glimmer of crimson; the furniture was of soli l mahogany. Crimson and black silk cushions softened the hard, angular couch and low chairs. There was a deep vase filled with crimson roses on the table by which Richard Catiieron read hour after hour. It was two o ' clock in the afternoon of a clear, cold Xovember day. The window was veiled in heavy black curtains, but through a small opening could be seen the rays of the glorious, glittering sun. A bright fire burned c :, the hearth, and all the world whispered jov and peace. Jiut Richard Cameron was unconscious, uncaring of the strange subtle beauty arourd him, and when at last he walked toward the fire and sank into his dee]) arm chair, his face hardened, and he murmured as his eye fell u]Kin an envelope lying on the table : Poor Alfred, I must save him. Eight years to-day since she — The murmuring ceased, giving place to silent thought. Placing his hands over his eyes, as if to shut out the bright glow of the fire, he soon became so lost in melancholy broodfrg that he did not hear the footsteps passing from the next room into the den, until he was suddenly startled by a laughing voice. Got them again, Dickie? Come, old man, don ' t get blue. Listen! I have had a time, and she is gojrg with me this afternoon to — Stop! The voice of Richard Cameron rang out with authority. .Alfred Harding, do you realize what you are saying? Why, yes : I was about to tell you — There, boy, don ' t do it; here is a letter for you. . lfred Harding took the letter and a smile passed over his boyish face as he read ; then turning to Dick, he said ; See, old man, rot two hours have i)assed since 1 saw her, and yet I find this note of — well — of love, waiting for me. W ' hv, Dickie, what makes such a strange light come into vour eves, and wh ' that frown? Come, let me tell you about her. Richard looked into the tlushed face of the boy and slowly said: I know it all ; the laughing eyes, the flattering targue, the joy rides, the theater, yes, and the wine cup. And I am going to save you. €l)i: 1912 Colonial iBcfao 203 Wake uji, Dickie. said Alfred, kiughing. This somber room has affected you; come out into the sunlight and jo_ -, and, 1 was about to say. love; but then ou don ' t believe in love. You are wrong, Alfred, 1 do believe iV., love ; but not the kind that appeals to all that is Inw and ba-e in man. There, boy, 1 did nut mean to hurt you. Listen! 1 have a story to tell, air-d when it is finished, judge fnr yourself whether I believe in love or not. ' ine years ago. I was a boy like you, just twenty-one. 1 had graduated in medicine as you have done ; everything was bright, and I was happy. I loved, and love was given to me in return. We were married soon after, and weiU to live in a large city. We were happy — at least I was. My work took up most of my lime, and I could give little to amusements. My wife was a gay, pretty, little thing, full of life, and the change from her country home to the city brought out many traits of character I had never known. She loved the crowds, the theater, balls and parties. I could not give so much time to such things, and gave up my place as her escort to a dear friend. It was in the midst of this gay life that our baby was born ; a beautiful girl, perfect in ever}- way. with one exception : on her little breast was found a mark in the shape of a wine cup. deep red, and perfect in shape. She was just two months old when I met with an accident, which placed me in the hospital. The physicians told me I would never be well ; but under a strange working of fate, I slowly came back to life. . nd then the - told me that she — she — my wife — had gone with another. Poor Dickie, that was tough. Rut didn ' t you ever fi:r l her? ' ' No; she failed to leave an address. The shock threw me Ijack, and for two years I was a nervous wreck. Then 1 came here, and I have grown rich ; I have gained in worldy goods, and lost her; and vet, the love still burns in my heart for her. It is this love that has nia le me give her up. It is this love that has iuade me succeed. It is this love that has made me decorate this den in somber black in the memory of what might have been, and in crimson for the wine cup she loved. Oh, if I had only died! The passionate voice of the speaker ended in a dry sob. and his handsome gray head rested on his breast. There, Dickie, cheer up. I know it must be hard, and I thank you for telling me of it ; but can ' t you see yours is btit one experidnce. Yes, it is but one experience. Alfred, but it is from just such an experience that 1 am going to save you. I have watched over you for the past four years ; I know your nature, and I want to see you happy. I shall be hai)]n-, Dick,- — happy in love. Alfred, if the love you claim is loval and devoted; if it finds its source in a deep contentment that is both s])iritual and physical ; if it is unfailing and eternal ; if it is unselfish, and fills your every thought so that it will not jiass away 206 €iit 1912 Colonitil €ci)o with the ecstasies of sensation; then 1 say loz ' e, fan the flame initil it burns and glows, so that it may cheer and warm and comfort. But beware lest it scorch ! Why, what strange ideas you have, Dick. Do you wa!nt me to live in a straight-jacket? No; but I know where you are drifting. I know you think you have a dove, when it is only a serpent. I know the wanton smiles and wiles of women who love the gay way and the wine cup. I know — ' Stop! Dick, stop! You go too far. 1 will inot stay to hear such words. No, not even from you. Dick Cameron sank into his chair and closed his eyes as Alfred went out of the room. He did not know how long he remained thus lost in thought, but suddenly he was awakened by a cry — a child in distress; confused shouts were heard in the street, followed by the ringing of his door bell. Cameron, ever on the alert for a call to duty, hurried to the door. An officer stood there with a limp burden in his arms, — a little girl. Dr. Cameron, she was crossing the street ahead of her nurse, when an automobile struck her. I think she still lives. Thus explaining, the otficer, followed by the nurse and the physician, en- tered the doctor ' s office. The latter took the still, little form, with its curls fast clogging w-ith blood, and laid it on the couch. With skilful fingers, gentle as a woman he began his examination. All eyes were upon him. Opening the neck of the little dress, he was seen to grow pale ; then a cry full of anguish burst from his lips. The mark ! the mark ! the wine cup mark ! Quickly recovering himself, he exclaimed, Send a messenger for her mother, and then he turned to the work which meant life and love. In spite of the eight years of her life which had been spent as an adven- turess, Myra Cameron was a devoted mother. So when the message came telling her of her daughter ' s condition, she lost ino time in getting to her. She did not notice the doctor ' s sign in the window when she arrived, or she would have been prepared. The door was opened, and slie was shown at once Jnto the office. With a cry she sank down beside the couch, begging the quiet little form to speak to her. Suddenly she heard a strangely familiar voice saying: ' Do not cry, we will soon have her aroinid all right. ' Tremblingly, Alyra arose and looked into the countenance of the speaker, and with a pale face sank to her knees, crying: Richard, is it you? Am I really with you? Where is — is she going to die? Don ' t look at me like that; strike nie. curse me, cast me away: only tell me that she will live ! The soft voice of Richard answered, She will live. €lK 1912 Coloitial €cl)o 207 ' Thank God ! ( ) Richar l. forgive nie for all I have made you suffer ; I didn ' t know how much you were to me until I left you and went away with him. And then, — he left me; left me to drift, and — I have been drifting, drifting, ever since. Oh, say you ll forgive me, Richard ! The strong man ' s form shook as he drew her to him and said: There is nothing to forgive. Myra. 1 have wanted you all these years; but I wanted you to come back only when you wanted to come. The past is gone — we have the future. Our child will live, and I have you, my all in all, my own little wife. Alfred Harding paused at the door just in time to hear Richard ' s words. His face paled ; but he quietly turned away mur muring : His wife has returned — his wife is Myra, my Myra, of the gay, laughing eyes, the wanton smile, and — yes — the — wine cup ! C. G. RicHARDsox.
