QUass nf 1911 As almost anyone could tell, Without the aid of glasses, If he should undertake to judge The Soph and Freshman classes, The freshmen have the finest lads And all the fairest lasses, Whereas the Sophies have by far The biggest bunch of asses. The Freshmen showed their manly strength That memorable day; The Sophies tried with might and main To take their flag away. Ah ! many a man was injured Upon that well-fought field ! And many a dauntless Freshman Forced a Sophomore to yield! Ah! can I e ' er forget that day? They fought like dogs and cats, While I stood very bravely by And held my classmates ' hats. And when the fight was over And the smoke had cleared away, There waved aloft the Freshmen ' s flag, For they had won the day. 1 he football game the Freshmen took — The Sophies couldn ' t win it — The only reason I can give Is that they just weren ' t in it. But as for baseball and for track — Ahem, ahem, ahem ! The Freshmen tried their very best, But then — ahem, ahem! And, anyway, you know, in track Our best man couldn ' t come, Because the day before he got A sliver in his thumb. — Jay Reed, 1911. 26 T Pike ' s $rak 1 i Jfaggrt j 1909 27 1909 Sty? 3xt alfmmt (Class 1911.

They dance and fight, both day and night, and sometimes study, too; But the greatest thing they ever have is the annual barbecue. And so the class of nineteen-ten — a wond ' rous aggregation! Kept making plans together, how they ' d win a reputation. They ' d build a barbecue, they said, would make all comers jealous. And so they did, if we ' re to b ' lieve what good statistics tell us. At first they thought they ' d burn the Peak, but since they couldn ' t rent her, They set four trees a mile apart with a big one in the center ; And then they filled the space inside with fuel of ev ' ry sort: It was so big, when half-way full, the stuff was running short. The sun sank down to rest at last, from the day ' s work weary, But ev ' ry Soph ' more boy stayed up, wide awake and cheery. And since the horses had to sleep, these boys fixed up a dragon, Whose backbone was a block of rope, whose tailpiece was a wagon. That dragon wended forth its way through darksome street and alley, And back the monster wiggled oft, and forth again did sally; Till when Aurora streaked the east, she saw collected there Ev ' rything — from the roof of a house to a baby ' s rocking chair. Hardly was the boodle hoisted up and out of sight; Entered a little manikin, bark without a bite, Who, stating his name and address with vicious muttenngs, Forbade the burning of the pile till he had back his things. From this until the close of day, a never-ending p ' rade Of wrathful men marched o ' er the field and exclamation made: That ' s my ice box stuck up there! There ' s my trundle bed! My gate! Our darling ' s playhouse! My fence! and Our cowshed! ' The long day wore profanely on, and when it turned to night, A deal of cursing though there ' d been, Mt. Wood was there all right. The grand stand howled, and tin cups rang, and speakers said their say, Then a stampede of the multitude swept tons of grub away.

There was a barbecue, my boy, that ran beyond our pen ; That was the barbecue, my boy, of the class of nineteen-ten. And while there are a hundred things they ' ve done up just as pat, We ' ve lied enough for once, my boy; we ' ll rest their fame on that. — C. W. 5., 70. P.

Ahlers, for twelve years head of the German Department of Colorado College, died at his home in Colorado Springs. Prof. Ahlers was born in Germany, and in his early manhood came to America. He was a graduate of Harvard University, where later he spent a year in post-graduate study. His students testify to the breadth of his scholar- ship, his unusually strong and well-stored memory, his enthusiasm for his work and his unfailing energy. If he made large demands upon his classes, they were small compared to the tasks which he laid upon him- self. During the last two years of his life all his work was done under great physical limitations, of which few had any knowledge, and his strong will kept him at his post until a few weeks before the close of the College year. His friends cannot recall the great suffering of the last weeks of his life save to give thanks for the won- derful way in which he met it. His gifts to the academic and social life of the College were many ; the greatest of all was the legacy in the example of bravery and the spiritual triumph with which he passed through the great ordeal those weeks brought. 76 909 77 I9©9 Atljbitr ABS0riatt0n President Hildreth Frost Secretary E.

Proud, because all three of our teams fought their way to the very top, and disappointed because, having arrived there, they failed to win the championship which was fairly within their grasp. The College teams have demonstrated their ability to play with fight and determination against great odds, but they have not shown the stamina necessary in the last desperate struggle for final victory. In order that our teams may be built on a broader, firmer basis, two things are necessary. First, a greater number of men in school, which means a greater effort on the part of students and faculty to draw more men to the institution. Second, a more sys- tematic development of material, which means eventually an athletic director and a gymnasium. Our coaches are among the best in the State, the student support is fair, the financial standing, under the new board, is the best that it has been for many years. With all the men taking some intelligent athletic training the year round, our athletic teams would have a backing and an impetus that would send them far ahead in the heart-breaking race for the championship. One great strength of our teams has been their comparative freedom from professionalism. To preserve the spirit of the teams, it is necessary that this standing be maintained; that, win or lose, every man on a team which represents Colorado College shall play for the love of the sport, and fight with unselfish, single-minded spirit for the supremacy of old C.

Captain. 85 909 Jfantball Alumni tell us that the squad which reported for practice in September was the best which has ever represented Colorado College. The team had good financial and student backing. Coach Richards had no peer in the State. The team played hard throughout the season, and won the championship — almost. In the critical game they failed to play the ball of which they were capable, and they lost. The season was most encouraging in comparison with the one that preceded, and hope, like truth, will not be downed, and before us is always that eternal hope — next year. The season started well with the defeat of the Colorado Springs and East Denver High Schools by scores of 5 to and 40 to 0. On October 1 2th, the team met the Agricultural College in Fort Collins in the first championship game. The light, fast, quickly scoring Aggie team could not stop the heavy College formations. Twice the Tigers rushed the ball over the line, twice Morrell kicked it over, and the Aggies were saved from a shut-out only by a place kick by Ken- nedy. The score at the end of the game stood: College, 20; Aggies, 4. Though the Tigers won so easily, they showed a lack of condition, and their playing lacked snap and dash. To improve this, Coach Richards worked the next two weeks, and when the team went against Denver University on October 26th, it was in much better con- dition. The score was repeated, but the game was much more exciting than the Aggie game. Again Morrell kicked two difficult Princetons. At the end of the first half the score stood 1 4 to 0, but the University came back in the second half and played with an energy and determination which kept the ball out of their territory most of the time. They kicked a Princeton, the College made a touch- down, and the relative merit of the teams was pretty accurately shown by the final score: College, 20; Denver University, 4. Two weeks later came trie battle royal. The University of Colorado de- scended upon Colorado Springs determined to avenge the smarting defeat of the year before. The Tigers were on their toes awaiting the attack, and the desper- ately fought contest which occurred when the two came together, will long be remembered by the great crowd which watched it. From the time when the opposing lines charged at each other till Richards threw up his hat, there was never a let-up in the struggle. The College early forced the ball to the University ' s 5 -yard line, where Sterrit saved a score by intercepting a forward pass. But soon afterwards Morrell kicked a beautiful Princeton from the 45-yard line, making the score 4 to 0, against Boulder. They, however, fought desperately and forced the ball to the College 1 -yard line, where they tried the College center, and found it as unbreakable as an English square. Several times the University was within striking distance, but always tried the wrong place in the line. In the first of the second half, Sherry caught a punt and made a brilliant run nearly the length of the field for a touchdown, making the score 1 to 0. The University never gave up, but fought desperately the rest of the game. They could not, however, stop the fierce tackle plunges and slashing end runs of the Tigers, and the game left 86 their team completely exhausted. Again, by clean, straight football and by superior playing, Colorado College had defeated the University of Colorado, and the joy and confidence of the students soared high. Only the Mines blocked the way to the championship, and the next Saturday the team and a goodly part of the student body invaded Denver, to remove that obstacle. The confidence was a little too great, and the team had not recovered from the grueling contest of the Saturday before. The game began well. The Tigers rushed the ball quickly down the field, then failed to make distance, the greatly-feared Morrell dropped back for a try at goal. The pass was poor, the kick failed. The zenith of the season had been reached and passed. The Mines soon kicked a Princeton, and toward the end of the half, Nordenholt broke loose for a long gain which soon resulted in a touchdown. In the second half, Knowles got away for a touchdown. The Tigers made frantic but futile efforts to score. They fought gamely, but ineffectually. They proved weakest where they were considered strongest — in kicking — and they failed in handling the ball. The men were dead ; they could not go at top speed for two weeks, and the team which had the ability to defeat the Mines and break the three years ' tie was beaten by a score of 1 5 to 0. After a rest of a week and a half, the team went to Salt Lake City, de- termined to improve their record. There, on Thanksgiving Day, they met the University of Utah in a bitterly contested game. The team outclassed and out- played that of Utah, but was unable to compete successfully with the officials. Utah relied on an end run, on a shift formation, and on a delayed kick, while Colorado College made the most of its gains on line plunges and forward passes. The ball see-sawed across the field till near the end of the first half, when Morrell kicked a Princeton. There was only four minutes left to play, but someone com- manded the sun or the timer ' s watches to stand still, till Utah kicked a Princeton, after which time was immediately called. The second half opened well for the College, for with a series of line plays and forward passes they carried the ball across the line, making the score 1 to 4 in their favor. About the middle of the second half, Utah punted the ball over the goal line, one of their men fell upon it, maikng a touchback, which counts nothing. The official, however, called it a touchdown, and the score then stood only 1 to 9 against them. They began a determined rush for C. C. ' s goal line. So fierce was this, that Utah put in four substitutes in their march down the field. Fighting magnificently, the Tiger line stopped them just in time to prevent a touchdown. Then Utah put in Ferguson, who, in the last minute of play, kicked a goal from the 30-yard line, thus winning the game for Utah by a score of 1 3 to 10. SCORES.

The material was not greatly superior to that of the previ- ous year, but the team played together and showed good spirit. It was nicely 1 9 © 9 balanced and fielded well. It was weaker in batting and base running. The great improvement over the showing of the year before was largely due to the coach. All the schools were represented by good teams, and the race for the championship was exciting. Colorado College was beaten by one score in the two final championship games. The season opened on April 6th, with a hard-won victory over the Mines. In a sensational game the Aggies were defeated 1 to 0, and two weeks later the operation was repeated with a more decisive score. The Mines were beaten a second time, and the Tigers were then ready for the undefeated Boulderites. The two teams met on Washburn field on the 1 st of June. The Tigers played splendid ball, and by the fifth inning had the University beaten. Then Ackley weakened, a series of heart-breaking errors followed. Boulder crept up in the score, and in the eleventh inning brought in the run that won the game. Undiscouraged, the Tigers went to Boulder two days later determined to even the score. Ackley was out of the game, but Hyder pitched splendidly. The team played against big odds, and they were finally beaten, 5 to 4. BASEBALL SCORES.

The leaders of track have been men who have set their eyes on nothing short of championships, and, while these have rarely come, the team for years has stood very near the top. The track men have been men of grit, ready to run a losing race to the finish, a nd this branch of athletics deserves more student support than it has had. The season of 1907 was a successful one, as success goes. The team was strong on the dashes, but weak on the long runs and some of the field events. The brunt of the work fell on two or three vets, though some of the new men showed unusual ability. The team was handicapped by the lack of dual meets. In the one which was held, Denver University was overwhelmingly defeated by a score of 87 to 22. In spite of the lack of practice, our team went to the State Meet on May 1 8th expecting to win. The meet was hotly contested. Colorado College lost two events which she expected to win, one or two questionable decisions were made, and the University of Colorado, having the better team, won, beating us 56 to 44, with the Mines and Aggies 31 and 1 1 , respectively. There was some consolation in the fact that our team won the relay race for the third consecutive year, and thus became the permanent owners of the silver loving cup. THE TEAM. NAME. EVENTS.

He has the football instinct and is always to be relied upon to play a heady game. THREE BARS. Captain Morris proved a very strong man, both on offense and defense, though the new style of game is not adapted to his man-of-war build, and plunging, smashing playing. As a fullback for hitting the line on offense and backing it up on defense, he is unequaled in this State. Howbert at guard improved right through the season. He was crippled part of the season, but was always all over the field, fighting his hardest. He passed the ball well for kicks. Cort played a hard, smashing game at end, especially on defense. He did not learn to handle the forward pass and was not in rugged condition. He plays to the limit. C. Morgan, at center, outplayed every man placed opposite him. He is a good punter, and if he had more steam and enthusiasm, would make a great player. Lennox at halfback played an aggressive, smashing game. He was espe- cially strong on defense, but lacked speed on offense. TWO BARS. G. Cary put up a fine game at tackle. He covers the field well, is steady, speedy and rugged. He is captain for this year, and besides being a good player, possesses the qualities of leadership. E. Draper, at guard, has been invincible. His choice for the All-Colorado Team was unanimous. He gets into every play. His stand for clean sport is especially to be commended. ONE BAR. West played a consistent game at quarter. He was steady, and ran the team well. He has good kicking ability, and with more experience and harder training, will make a hard man to beat. Sherry has speed. He is a good open-field runner. At quarter, he played fast ball, and only needs more football judgment to make what the team lacks — a good quarter. Sinton, at end, was especially strong with the forward pass. On defense he lacked steam. He has the making of an All-Colorado end. Morrell ' s great place kicking put him in a class by himself. A number of his kicks were phenomenal. On defense, at tackle, he was not active enough. Wilson, at halfback, put up a spirited game. With more age and experience he will be among the best. 98 19©9 Christopher was a find not made till near the end of the season. If he had had more ginger, he would have made good sooner. Lee made a good end, was a sure tackier, and had the football instinct. Graham is a comer at end. He is speedy and learns readily. With more experience and greater interest, he will make a great player. Gibbs played a hard game at fullback. He has a dogged persistency which makes him a valuable man. C. Carey put up a hard, consistent game at halfback. His weight and knowledge of the game made him a valuable back-field man. BASEBALL. FOUR BARS. Captain Tegtmeyer, at short stop, worked hard, but his playing was inclined to be erratic. His batting and fielding averages were about the same for the four years. THREE BARS. Smith, in center field, put up a steady game throughout. His fielding was good, sometimes brilliant, and his batting fair. Mitchell played a strong game at catcher. His throwing was accurate, his batting good, and at several critical times he pulled the team together in fine shape. TWO BARS. Morris put up a splendid game in right field. His work the second year was a great improvement over the first, and in fielding and batting he led the team. He is the best outfielder in the State. Travis covered first base well, though his fielding was hardly up to last year ' s standard. He was reliable at the bat. Ackley, in the box, put up an even better game than he did last year. He proved a timely hitter, and fielded his position in great shape. Schmid played a gilt-edged game at third base. He was always ready to take chances, and he covered a lot of ground. He is captain for this year and well deserves the place. McCreery played a good game in left field. He was cool-headed and accurate. Jackson made his first year of College ball an errorless one. He covered second base perfectly. He was much weaker at the bat. Siddons proved himself a good man at either catcher or fielder. With no previous practice he caught, a perfect game at Fort Collins. He stood next to Morris in batting and fielding averages. He is a born ball player. Hyder played a good game in the field, and when put in the box in the last contest pitched a remarkable game, though he had not been used in that position before. Anderson got into only a few games, and did not do himself justice in these. 100 TRACK THREE BARS. Captain James, while in College, developed into a remarkable sprinter. He was not in condition last year to do all he was capable of. He worked faithfully for the success of the team. TWO BARS. Reeks is a worthy successor of Painter and James. As captain he will, like them, run his heart out for the school. In the quarter-mile and low hurdles he is without a peer in the State. Stiles is a strong runner in the short distances. He has been both years on the championship relay team, and with more consistent training would make a winner. ONE BAR. Draper has made good distance with the hammer. He is a hard worker. Morris proved himself an all-round athlete by making his third C in track. He puts the shot well, but can do better with more training. G. Cary has shown ability in several events. He is another all-round athlete, but by specializing in the discus and high hurdles, he can far excel his present records. Hyder has developed into a first-class broad jumper. This year he ought to break the State record. Jardine is recognized as one of the best half-milers in the State. Pratt beat him last year, but this year Jardine should have things to himself. Gibbs has not been able to win the points he did the first year, but he shows a spirit far surpassing that of many students. Riche broke no records, but he has ability for a good sprinter and should work harder. Knox showed last year what consistent training will do for a man.

For the first time in the history of the organization, a portion of the Athletic Dues has been turned over to it. As a result, new nets and other equipment are on hand, and the courts are in first-class shape. In the early part of the first term, a new con- stitution admitted all students of College or Academy desiring to play. On account of this, the present membership is in the neighborhood of one hundred. Two tournaments have been completed. That for the girls was won by Miss Hall, of Cutler Academy. Ernest B. Fowler, 1911, won in the men ' s tournament. Cups were awarded to the victors. This sport is becoming very popular, and the Club will doubtless turn out some winning players this year. 104 1909 jKappa tgma JFratmttty BETA-OMEGA CHAPTER.

Her aim has been always to combine the social and intellectual life in a way to secure the best all-round development for her members. It is also her ambition to be a building factor in the general life of the College and to stand among the foremost in furthering the interests of our Alma Mater. Besides her weekly literary and business meetings, her regular activities include various social functions. During the first semester of this year, a return was made to a line of study taken up by the Minervans ten years ago. Social conditions among the workers in the sweat-shops, the work of modern social reformers, and some important eco- nomic problems, furnished ample material for a series of very instructive programs. The programs for this semester are especially appropriate for spring work. The Society is taking an imaginary trip through England, visiting the most interesting places, studying their natural environment, and the literature connected with them. Once a month the regular literary session is replaced by a trip to the canons, under the guidance of someone who understands the botanical and geological conditions of Colorado. Lectures and music furnish variations from the regular work during the entire year. The social activities of this year began with the annual dance given in Sep- tember for the new girls. Other smaller dances have followed, besides the usual spreads and picnics. In October, Minerva entertained her honorary members and the faculty ladies at a tea given in Ticknor parlors. Later, the society was very delightfully entertained at an informal dance and buffet supper by two of her honorary members, Mrs. Davie and Mrs. Montgomery. Minerva has also very much enjoyed being entertained by Hypatia and Contemporary. The greatest social event of the year is always the Function. This year it was given at the new Acacia hotel, with unusual success. The guests were received by Miss McCreery, Mrs. Parsons and Mrs. Cajori. After an informal reception, the usual progressive dinner took place. The decorations were in blue and white, the Society colors. In the spring, Minerva entertains her sister societies with a May-pole dance and informal reception in the Jungle. The new members were pledged this year the first week in November. Minerva never admits Freshmen, so the initiation does not take place until the last week in May. The social life of the year closes with the Alumni breakfast, given during Commencement, when we gladly welcome back our alumni, and join with them in toasting the past, the present, and the future Minerva. 126 1909 127 1909 iitarha Soil Ruie Aitken Helen Canon Helen Clarke Cecelia Collier Carrie Davis Lulu Draper Mabel Emery Elizabeth Frazer Edith Hall Julia Ingersoll Janet Kampf Ruth Londoner Margaret Mack Nettie Major Mary McCreery Edith McCreery Erne Miller Ernestine Parsons Lucile Parsons Jean Pattison Vida Pitts Frances Remsen Emma Riggs Eunice Smith Anna Strang Mary Tucker Phoebe Ward Helen Wilson PLEDGES.

Its aim is to develop in its members a high standard of literary work, democratic college spirit, and true fellowship. The purpose of the Club is to sustain an interest in contemporaneous matters. The programs this year have taken up some of the most interesting movements of the present day. Nature Studies for the first semester comprised many inter- esting lines of thought, including a review of the various nature writers and poets, and the active work being done in the forest service, and by such men as Luther Burbank. The topic for the second semester is The Conservation of Our Natural Resources, which includes a study of the Agricultural Department, Forestry, Geological Survey, and Waterways. Socially, the year has been very enjoyable. The Annual Fancy Dress Ball for the new girls was given in October, the German for the pledges in January, and a Valentine dance for the other two societies in February. The function and the initiation of new members come in the spring. In addition to the larger festivities, there are the informal spreads and picnics — the best times of all. The Club has also been entertained very delightfully by honorary members. The Contemporary Club endeavors to reach each year a little nearer the goal which it has in view, to be a more vital factor in the life of each individual member and in the college life as a whole. 134 1909 135 909 (EottfrmpDrary Holl 1908.

After organization, the Society devoted some months to contemporary mat- ters, and then took up the subject of art. Beginning with a brief history of art, the work was continued in a detailed study of the Florentine painters from Cimabue to Michel Angelo. This was followed successively by modern French, English and American painters. The present year has been devoted to American arts and ha ndicrafts, with special attention to the work of contemporary artists. Some very interesting pro- grams have been given on art schools, exhibitions, pottery, mural decorations and stained glass. Mr. Riddle ' s talk on pottery, with his practical illustrations, was of special interest. We have had some very pleasant social gatherings — dances, spreads, etc. The annual social events are the Autumn spread, to which all the new girls are invited, the informal reception to our sister societies, and a dinner. The readings by Mr. Sturgis made the reception this year especially enjoyable. Hypatia en- tertained its friends at a formal dinner on February 2 7th at the Antlers Hotel. While we believe in a reasonable amount of social life, we lay more stress upon literary activity. The aim of the Society is to make its work a supplement of the College work, so that its members may go out with added training in public speaking, and an intelligent interest in art, without some knowledge of which we believe a woman ' s education is not complete. 138 1909 139 1909 %patia Uoll Kate Ashley Gertrude Ashley Jean Auld Louise Auld Lala Bartleson Ruth Bateman Betty Lee Carpenter Flavilla Cole Edith Douglass Lillian Douglass Irene Daily Marie Emigh Marian Emmons Ida Gilland Blanche Hall Alice Hutchinson Inez King Laura McClain Lota Merris Edna Prevost Florence Reed Marie Roberts Edith Sommers Jennie Seaman Agnes Thomas Edna Woodard HONORARY MEMBERS.

Dietrich The Ciceronian Club, the youngest literary society of the College, began its career in October, 1907, with eight charter members. This additional society was the outcome of the growing needs of a growing college. For the last two years the other young men ' s literary societies have been crowded with members, so great is th e desire of students to develop this side of their college life. Beginning in a small way, with the good will of the College and its brother societies, it has increased its membership and has now a roll of twenty-four mem- bers, all stimulated with the desire to work together for the mutual benefit of Society and College. After much time and thought spent upon organizing, a constitution was drawn up and issued in December, 1907. The purpose of the Club is to promote and develop the spirit of intellectual research into the educational, political and social topics of the day, to develop oratory, to stimulate debate, to increase the fitness of college men for platform and parliamentary work, and, last but not least, to increase the spirit of true fellowship. This year the Club is placing its feet on firm ground; it has laid the founda- tion for a society equal to the best. The prospects for the coming year are very bright, and the Ciceronian Club trusts that by untiring energy and zeal it will develop the ideals with which it began. The Club welcomes students who desire to cooperate in this work and recreation. Herbert Ayers F. E. Barr A. W. Brown M. C. Dietrich N. M. Finkbiner Paul Geissler Hugh Gilmore H. W. Greenlee I. C.

It fills a great and long-felt need in the Music School, promoting, as it does, good fellowship, and furnishing a medium for the practical application of the school ' s ideals. Its aims, as set down in its constitution, are: To encourage a high-grade of scholarship in all branches of music. To write, compose, and produce operettas, plays, concerts, or any kind of entertainments approved by Dean Hale. To furnish and decorate the studios of Perkins Fine Arts Hall.

The Work of this year has been made interesting by lectures by prominent men in practical work in and around Colorado Springs, and also by several of the College Faculty. Each member is required to deliver during the term a paper relating to work in engineering or in science which is attracting the attention of the people of today. Regular meetings are held every two weeks, and every other meeting takes the form of a smoker, at which there is discussed by all the members of the Club some interesting topic. Among the addresses this semester are the following: Colored Photo- graphy, by O. W. Stewart; The Requirements of a Deputy Mineral Land Surveyor, by Prof. C. T. Griswold. 1909 Jl iJLLUJU ok . . m.

The tour of three weeks ' duration, taken during the holi- days, covered the greater portion of the State, and we can safely say that wherever the boys stopped, people learned something new about Colorado College. They found that we do things; that we are proud of the school, and like to talk about it. Every day brought a change of audience, but not always a change of address ; consequently a cut-and-dried speech could be offered about once in twenty-four hours: We ' ve been out two weeks now. Yes, had a very pleasant trip — just came from Greeley. No, our crowds aren ' t always good, but that ' s the man- ager ' s business. I hope we won ' t get stranded here. Are you coming tonight? The boys met, as a whole, the people who are interested in College work — the parents of students, College alumni, and the High School students. To the parents they talked scholarship facilities, of our able faculty, and high moral standards. To the students they talked of the social life, of fraternities, of scholarship, and, most of all, athletics. To the alumni they didn ' t talk — they just listened to what we used to do. The concerts everywhere were very pleasing. It is safe to say that they were the best ever. The program was one of finish and variation. The efforts of Dean Hale and of Mr. Redding made the Glee and Mandolin Clubs highly creditable to any musical organization. Mr. Hanna was an able reader of humor or pathos, who never failed to hold his audience from the start. He contributed much to the success of every concert. As a feature of College life the Club is important. Every fellow who made the trip had experience he will long remember. He has become acquainted with Colorado, and met a large number of people, learned how to wear a dress suit with an idle grace, and what it means to be farmed out. He can tell you how to raise sugar beets or how big apples grow in Grand Junction. He knows at least three charming girls in every town, and, perhaps, why he flunked in algebra. He thinks he ' ll try again next year. ITINERARY. 1907.

It was organized with a mem- bership of seven, and has since added one more. Meetings are held on the second and fourth Tuesday evenings of each month, at which papers are read and dis- cussions held relative to current forestry problems. On different occasions the meetings are addressed by speakers whose knowledge and experience in forestry affairs are such as to be beneficial to students of the subject. The Club has a good beginning and hopes to increase in membership and usefulness from year to year. 152 I9©9 153 31j? Irattrattr j owtg OFFICERS.

The purpose of the Society is to stimulate an interest in dramatics, and to promote a spirit of fellowship among the girls. All of the girls in College may be associate members of the organization, and may come into active membership by participating in a play. Plays are presented once a month for the members, and in the Spring a per- formance is given before the members and friends of the Society. The work of this year has been mainly that of foundation-laying, but it is expected that the Society will develop rapidly and take an important place in the life of Colorado College. Two farces of W.

The purpose of the Society is the acquiring of greater fluency in speaking the language, together with more general knowledge of the people and literature of France. At the meetings, original papers written in French are read, French songs are sung, read- ings from different authors are given, and games and conversation occupy the last half-hour. The use of English at the meetings is absolutely forbidden. The Club expects to present a short farce each year. Thanks to the kind assistance and advice of Prof. E. C. Hills, Head Professor of Modern Languages, Le Cercle Francais this year has been the source of both pleasure and profit to the members. 909 MEMBERS.

The Revolutionary War for a time interrupted its develop- ment. At the beginning of the last century it was reorganized, and chapters were founded at Harvard, Yale, Dartmouth and Union. From these chapters the Society has spread until it now includes chapters in all the leading colleges and universities of the United States. A national council of The United Chapters of Phi Beta Kappa is held once in three years. On September 7, 1904, the National Council unanimously voted to grant a charter to the Beta chapter of Colorado, to be founded at Colorado College. Originally the chief object of the Society was social. Its purposes have broadened, however, until it now aims to stand for the broadest scholarship and highest ideas of college men and women in America. The Beta chapter of Colorado was organized on November 11,1 904, with the following charter members: M. C. Gile (Brown), E. C. Hills (Cornell), Edith P. Hubbard (Vassar), Ruth Loomis (Vassar), F. H. Loud (Amherst), E. S. Parsons (Amherst), S. F. Pattison (Williams), Wm. E. Stark (Har- vard), H. A. Smith (Missouri). The by-laws provide that no student shall be eligible who has not taken his Junior and Senior years in Colorado College, or who has not received a grade of 90 in at least one-half of his college courses. Resident members of the Colorado Beta chapter of the Phi Beta Kappa: Mabel S. Bateman ( Colorado College), Florian Cajori (Colorado College), M. C. Gile (Brown), Ella F. Graber (Colorado College), C. T. Griswold (Amherst), E. D. Hale (Williams), F. R. Hastings (Colorado College), E. C. Hills (Cornell), Ruth Loomis (Vassar), F. H. Loud (Amherst), Wm. J. Palmer (Colorado College), J. W.

President Rhoda Norton Haynes Vice-President Edith Laura Hall Secretary Julia D. Ingersoll Treasurer Faith Cox Helen Clarke Zella Warnock Emma Riggs Kate Ashley Edith Sommers Second Semester The Student Government Association originated in the spring of 1 906, when the increasing number of young women students residing on the campus made a change in the old regime necessary. In response to a petition to the Faculty made by the Campus Association, a charter was granted. A committee appointed by the student body drew up the Constitution. Active work began in September, and by the end of the month the rules were adopted. These rules were based on those by which the girls ' life had before been regulated, but with added freedom and gradation in privileges according to classes. The careful, effective work of the first board is evident from the fact that the girls have lived for two years under these rules, with but very few changes. The active work of the organization is done by an Executive Board, consist- ing of a President elected from the incoming Senior class, one representative from each hall, and one from each class. The Freshman representative is elected for the second semester only, and attends all meetings of the board, but has no vote. There is also an advisory board of six members, one appointed from each society, and one from each of the three upper classes. It is the aim to have every girl take a vital interest in the organization and a share in the government. Student Government has accomplished a great deal in the college life. It was due to the wcrk of the first board that the Dramatic Club was formed. Marked improvement in scholarship, thoughtfulness, unity, and good spirit is noticeable in the dormitories. It is hoped that the Association will do more each year toward fulfilling its purpose — to insure a happy, well-regulated college life, cultivate a broad-minded, democratic spirit, and train each young woman in the art of governing herself and others. 160 1909 161 1909 ( ratonral anfc Abating AfiBnriattnn Officers for 1907-08. President Charles M. Rose Vice-President . . Lemuel P. Putnam Secretary-Treasurer Harry W. Coil Manager Arthur E. Harper The work of the Oratorical Association has been somewhat changed in the past year. Our withdrawing from the State Association, left us free to arrange whatever local contest we desired. Dean Parsons, who has always shown a great interest in this work, came forward and offered to raise a prize of fifty dollars to the winner of first place and twenty-five dollars for second place in a good local contest. Such a contest is being arranged, and will most likely be held during Commencement week. It is the present intention of the Association to limit this contest to men of the two upper classes. The Freshman-Sophomore Declamation Contest has become one of the events of the year. It is growing to be a greater honor each year to win a place in this contest. This contest will also be held sometime in Commencement week. Last year we arranged a series of two debates with Denver University. The first one of these we won. The second one is being arranged, and will be won or lost in Denver during the month of April. The work of the Association has been greatly hindered during the past two years, by not having a regular head of the Department of Oratory in the Col- lege. This year Professor Park has come to us and taken this department in College. Although he has not instituted many changes in the Department of Oratory and Debating during the past year, he is planning many new things for next year. His enthusiasm and popularity will do much toward making this work a strong one in college. He will also be able to give many valuable suggestions to the Association. 162 1909 f roiroBFb % M. OL A.

The prominent men in the College are taking a deeper interest in this work, and a lasting influence for good is going out from their lives. The Association stands for clean Christian manhood, and is endeavoring, through Bible Study classes, socials, meetings, and personal touch, to lead the young men of the College to live by the right standard. The average attendance at the weekly meetings is 50; enrollment in Bible Study classes, 125; enrollment in Mission Study classes, 55; total amount of budget, $1,130. The second annual banquet was held at the Alamo Hotel in December. Hon. Alva Adams, of Pueblo, was the speaker of the evening. Prominent men who have spoken before the Association during the past year are Dr. Frank T. Bayley, Dr. Howard Agnew Johnston, of New York City, President Slocum, Dean Parsons, and a number of local ministers and laymen. Through the Employment Department, nearly one hundred positions have been secured for the young men. 164 19©9 165 «T ©lie jj, JIlkr ' B JJrak % Nuggrt 1909 Sunday evening services have been conducted by representatives from the Association throughout the school year. Supply speakers have also been sent to Falcon, Calhan and Turke y Creek. Interest in the missionary enterprise has developed remarkably during the year. Two hundred dollars is being contributed towards the work being carried on by Phil Gillett in Korea and Wm. M. Vories in Japan. Three Mission Study classes have been conducted. Eighteen delegates represented the Association at the Lake Geneva Confer- ence last June, and the same number of men attended the State Convention held in Greeley in February. This year the summer conference will be held at Cas- cade, and it is planned to have a large representation there. Progress during the past two years, and the unusual opportunity for effective service at the present time, indicate that the coming year will bring about larger results than have ever been secured.

In our meetings we have been fortunate in having many outside speakers. Miss Hays, Miss Matthews, and Miss Dow have told us of the practical side of Young Woman ' s Christian Association work, and Mrs. Grahame, Mrs. Barrows, and Mrs. Worley have shown us the real interest in the foreign mission field. Mrs. McLean has been with us three times, and Dr. Bayley twice, the last time for the Week of Prayer. From the proceeds of our new plan of systematic giving, we provided Thanksgiving dinners for several poor families, and at Christmas sent money for presents for the children in the mission school at Seboyeta, New Mexico. In our mission study classes we have a home mission course, as well as one in foreign work. In Bible study, there is this year a class especially for the girls who live in town. Socially, the main event of the year has been the May Festival, given last spring in the Jungle by both Associations. This took the place of the May Morn- ing Breakfast of former years, and was very successful. Besides this, we have had the reception for new girls (held also in the Jungle) at the opening of Col- lege, the joint reception in Coburn Library, and our annual Circus. The Summer Conference was held at Cascade this year for the first time. The Colorado College representation there numbered twenty-five. At the State Convention, held in Denver in February, we were represented by a delegation of twenty, three of whom were sent by the Association. All through the year we have felt the inspiration from these conferences. 167 1909 9©9 ®tj? i tufont Halutttwra President Harry E.

Meetings are held every Wednesday, at which practical problems in con- nection with missionary service are considered. Dr. A. J. Brown ' s recent book, The Foreign Missionary, has been used as a text-book. The life of the mis- sionary is herein set forth in a very real way. There have been six new volunteers during the past year. Representatives of the band have led a large number of missionary meetings in the young people ' s societies in the city. The stimulation of interest in missions in the college and community, as well as earnest preparation for service in the foreign field, is the real purpose of the organization. A very helpful conference concerning the missionary situation in the college, was held in December. Leaders in the Christian Associations, Volunteers, and the two Missionary Com- mittees, were present. The local group is identified with the Student Volunteer Movement, whose watchword is The Evangelization of the World in This Gen- eration.

First Prize Story. 1909 HE FLAG-RUSH had been declared a draw, but both Freshmen and Sophomores knew the decision was wrong. Had not Shorty, hobbled by a Freshman holding each leg, covered half the distance up the pole? Then, was not the flag still waving in defiance, when the Senior President took it down? Yes — but wait. Let the Seniors show all the favoritism they want to. There are dark nights coming, and dark plots need but the cover of midnight to turn them into deeds. In brief, this is the history of September days at Hampton University, when class spirit was fanned to a blaze, which lit the path to bloody deeds and dire calumniations. Yes, for the glory of your class, it is permissible to tie a rival to a tree over night, or half drown him in the Campus Lake. You may cover him with fly-paper, or shave his head and paint it in your class colors, but always try to keep him in the regions of the living. The night had come, when even the heavens wore an aspect of ill. The planet Jupiter was conjoined with the red ring of the terrible Saturnus. Nearer the earth, the winds of the firmament howled in mournful cadence through the imaginations of men and freshmen. A star of two years ' ascendency had just collided with the physical orb. The dire prophesy had been made manifest, when this Sophomoric star had crossed the path of four newly discovered planets in the University horoscope. The collision had ended disasterously for Jack Spencer. His stellar brilliancy had been reduced to a minimum, and now he began to realize that he was a prisoner. He tried to corral his scattered wits within the walls of memory. Yes, he thought, I was taken alive by some Freshmen, and they have done me up and down till I am most undone. I will not mind, for ' A man is ne ' er undone Till he is hung. ' His eyes tried to pierce the semi-darkness of the long, narrow room. A few straggling bars of light crept through the windows from a distant street lamp and fell upon his bloody face. Yes, he thought, it was a good fight, and I believe that I cracked a ' nogan ' and dislodged a few tusky molars ere I dreamed tonight. Jack saw that he had been laid upon a most unyielding bed. A single sheet was wrapped about him. He could see that he was not alone, for on either side of him were several other sleepers. Slowly, painfully, he rose and began to feel 187 1909 about him, till his hand encountered a piece of steel. He held it up and felt that it was sticky. It was a bloody razor of marvelous proportions. What! he gasped, I think I ' ll pry into this matter, and keep this razor while I do the prying. He left the bed and went to a table near the half transparent windows. Carefully he felt his way along the edge, till suddenly his fingers grasped a man ' s hand protruding from the cover. In nervous haste he jerked his hand away, and, strange to say, the other hand came with it, falling upon the floor with a dull sound that echoed most provokingly along his spinal column. My think tank has been whacked to a dent, he thought, or else this chap is more undone than I. I ' ll back from the encounter. My razor has no edge for such as this. He stepped back and eyed the white cover of the table for a full half min- ute. He began to consult his senses. He struggled to catch the ghost of an idea. My feeling tells me that I am near the dead. My vision has been strained and distorted, I fear, but smelling aids me much. It is as keen as this razor ' s edge. Therefore, intuition tells me that I am in the stiff room, and that these heathen Medics have laid me for the cleaver. Not yet, for ' knowledge doth banish much of evil. ' My razor has been edged with my understanding. Near the opposite end of the room another figure was peering into the dark- ness in Jack ' s direction. A few distorted rays of light had fallen upon that razor and the bloody face of the owner. The vision had a rather discomforting effect upon the man down the hall. Then, a Freshman is apt to be nervous if he is bound, gagged, and locked in the dissecting room of a medical school, at the hour of midnight, even by his future fraternal brothers. They might not mean any harm, but it isn ' t necessary to have a terrible-looking man with a carving knife standing guard the while. You might not know that the individual was only a Sophomore, who had been knocked silly or chloroformed, and laid on the meat block of the stiff joint to recover his senses. So Theodore, the Freshman, kept an eye in the direction of Jack, the Sophomore, and chewed his gag all the harder. After Jack realized where he was, he began to look for a light. He felt around till he found an electric light switch, but there was no current. After a time he found what proved to be a battery lamp with a red bull ' s-eye. Good, he muttered, as he turned the light down the hall. Now I can see my way out — if there is one. The beds in these barracks are bad. I cannot sleep here. Slowly he walked down the aisle, and examined each ghastly table en route. Things looked almost interesting in the rays of th at red light. Jack was not timorous, but he still kept his razor for emergencies. Theodore saw him coming, and he felt somewhat as though he, himself, were that possible emergency. There are some Sophomores who are not to be trusted or tried too far, and Teddy thought it would be best to play ' possum. He covered his head with the sheet and thought, as the ostrich, that he was hidden. Certainly the frat wouldn ' t expect him to have his throat cut as a part of the initiation. H The red light of Jack ' s lantern fell upon a pair of patent leather shoes stick- ing out from under a sheet. It ' s very unusual for a stiff to be rigged like this, he thought. Suffering snakes, look at those striped socks! It ' s a wonder this poor cuss hasn ' t come to life. Ankles tied up, too. I wo nder if these doctors practice vivisection? By the whiskers of Mohammed, I am glad I woke up in time! He pulled at the sheet, and said aloud: Wake up here, old socks! Let ' s anticipate the Judgment Day, and fool these carrion carvers who would pickle us in a vat of embalming juice. I prefer a bone yard or a bottle for my mortal remains. If the howls of a dog, which I heard in here one day, are any sign, you ' ll be so near hell that they couldn ' t singe you in a crematory with sulphur in the furnace. Theodore awakened and sat up blinking. Jack stepped back, surprised that his suspicions were realities. Each looked at the other like two babies that have just discovered one another. They might frighten or fight. Then Jack proceeded to cut the manacles of victim No. 2 and remove the gag from his mouth. It was like uncorking a champagne bottle. A burst of vituperous invectives came from that Freshman in a most uncorpse-like manner. He was no longer scared, and he showed it. He tore off the sheet, and exposed some Greek symbols on his bare breast, artistically painted in green and white. I don ' t care if I am never initiated, he said. I won ' t stay here any longer. You ' ve got to let me out. Those confounded muckers — I ' d like to make ' em drink a gallon of mixed paint for breakfast! I ' d like to get even, and put that stiff they gave me to bunk with in Jimmie Flavin ' s bed. Ugh ! It ' s awful. I ' ll catch hydrophobia. Jack began to cut the ropes that bound Teddy ' s ankles, but he changed his mind, and thought awhile. Now, this fellow thinks I am his jailor. I believe I ' ll let him think so. Jack was hardened by his night ' s experience. He was almost as cool as a Medic. This man was a Freshman joining a rival fraternity. The more Jack thought, the more determined he was to conduct that initiation along some lines of his own. Let ' s see, where did we put the other fellow? he said, craftily. I don ' t know whether to let you out or not. They took him back there, I believe, said Theodore. Jack started to see, and soon found another victim in the same condition as No. 1 . He was not frightened, and gazed at Jack with a grin, that was like oil on a fire to Jack ' s wrathful mind. He was after revenge and sought it with an indiscriminating eye. He found as big a knife as he could, and went back to Theodore. Then with strips of a sheet he bound that freshman tight to the dis- secting table. Not a word did he reply to Teddy ' s prayers and profanity, but proceeded to whet the knife on the edge of the table. To say the least, circum- stances were not propitious in the eyes of that Freshman. Howls and prayers were silenced by a second application of the gag. Struggles were of no avail. Then with the knife he commenced literally to saw away the locks of the unfortunate. Soon the razor came into use, till poor Teddy ' s head was almost as bare as the proverbial billiard ball. Then, with an almost fiendish delight, he remembered 189 909 1909 that there was a pot of glue at the end of the hall. He found it, and began the next operation by cutting up a few dozen strips of sheeting. When this was done he stuck an end of each strip fast to that candidate ' s head. Now, I think you ' ll realize what it means to become a member of Phi Gamma Epsilon, he said. You ' d do credit to a worse tribe of Apaches with your paint and feathers. You ' re almost as handsome as a Hottentot medicine man. After massaging chills out of his victim ' s frame for a minute with the knife, he crossed over to Freshman No. 2 and turned the bull ' s-eye in his face. It showed white under a red light. He had heard a few of Theodore ' s prayers and ejaculations. The grin was gone, and the victim gazed at Jack ' s bloody face like a negro at a dead man. His composure was on the decline, his heart on the rise. I ' ve a good notion to cut your throat right now, said Jack. And the candidate looked as though he believed it. Not a word of protest could he utter, but his looks told volumes. I think you ' d like something to amuse you, the torturer continued, as he laid a disjointed arm across the prisoner ' s chest. Now, I wonder whether or not the hembroidonous lining is on one or both sides of the pulmonary organs? I missed that question in the last examination. I believe I ' ll see for myself. I ' ll only need to take out one lung. However, my light is growing dim. I ' ll postpone the operation. Then Jack cut the ropes and bade Mr. Candidate arise and follow him. Silently the two passed toward the door, and after five minutes ' work, they had succeeded in opening it. Jack still held the razor and the lantern. Now, come back here, he said, I want to use you for a hearse. Get a hold of this ' stiff ' that hasn ' t been unjointed yet. We ' ll take him along. Sammy rebelled, but it was no use, and, shuddering, he grasped the legs of the corpse, and they carried it out the door. They were as pretty a pair of ghouls as ever graced the lines of Poe or carved in the ranks of soulless medical students. Sammy still clung to his sepulchral sheet that now flapped ghost-like in the wind. Jack ' s clothes were badly torn, and genuine gore clotted his hair and darkened his body promiscuously. One eye was swollen shut, and his nose was battered like a baseball in the ninth inning. A longitudinal rip coursed along his trousers, starting far along the south pole and ending in the belt zone near the equator. No wonder Jack was revengeful ! They passed a street lamp just as the cover slipped from the corpse, and Sammy saw the face. Ugh! he said. This is grewsome business. I am — Shut up! Don ' t you speak another word till I tell you to. Extreme cases require extreme remedies. Salve yo ur conscience with that thought, and get busy. Softly they took the body up the steps of die P. G. E. house. Jack opened the door, which he found unlocked, and they took their ghastly burden far down trie hall. The lantern showed that the initiation had left the house as if it had been visited by an earthquake. They were looking about, when Jack spied a paint bucket. He was still revengeful. Without a shudder he took the brush and painted the corpse with an array of Greek letter symbols. Sammy looked horrified, but Jack only whispered: 190 Maybe he ' ll understand it. Greek ' s a dead language, you know. Now, I think I ' ll tie you up again while I go back for your partner. The ropes were once more put into use, and Sammy was bound tight to a chair. Now, thought Jack, that fellow has been hung. I ' ll put that rope there. I ' ll trade my pants for these in the hall. I ' ll put these bottles near the corpse. Then he passed from the house, and crossed the campus to the Medica School. He opened the door, but turned again and walked three blocks to a telephone. He rang Main 27. Hello! he said, Police Department? Say, there ' s an awful disturbance going on at 806 Walnut Street. There may have been murder committed. Send ten men up, quick! Then Jack started back to the dissecting room, but stopped as he reached the door. There were voices within. He hid behind the hedge, and waited. Soon out came two figures and started for the telephone. Jack followed, and saw that Theodore was in the rear, the long streamers floating in the wind, like the ghost of the Witches ' Queen. The two hurried to the ' phone, and they also rang Main 27. For heaven ' s sake come quick! The Medical School has been robbed and a crime committed! was the message the Chief received. Ring in the patrol and five reserves, he said to the Sergeant. Hello! Is this Dr. Robinson? Come quick to Phi Gamma Epsilon frat house, will you? was the third message in five minutes. Hello! ' phoned Jack from his own house. Is this Dr. Wilson, of the Medical School? You ' d better hurry over to the Hospital. I just passed the buildings, and someone came out of the dissecting room with a body. In the meantime, Sammy had become impatient, and he had used his voice. Soon those turbulent fraters were staring at the corpse and at each other, clad in Navajo blankets, bed-room suits and striped night-gowns. The door banged twice, and in came Theodore and Frank Lawson, who had gone to liberate the prisoners. Sam ' s gone, and someone ' s cut Ted ' s hair off, an — Yes; here ' s Sam with a stiff for company. What in the devil — Another knock at the door, and in came three policemen. They saw Theo- dore with his paint and ' feathers. ' They saw Sammy still tied to a chair. They saw the corpse. It was a potent hour. Windows flew up next door and across the street. A passing milkman raised his lantern against the clamorous midnight. You ' re all under arrest, said the Sergeant. Get your duds, and get in the wagon. Let me explain, Officer, said Lawson. Never mind. Murder needs no explanation. You can tell that to the Judge in the morning. You don ' t grasp the situation. I ' ll grasp the makers of it, then. Get in the wagon. You ' ll learn that murder and crime are not jokes. To add insult to injury, a newspaper reporter arrived on the scene. He took down a list of vituperative invectives, and made lightning sketches of the 191 1909 1909 bolder-looking Greek letter specimens. He rode in the patrol, and wrote copy by the light of his imagination all the way down town. When Dr. Robinson arrived, he was met by a big policeman and the Chinese cook. The officer was silent, but the Chink was not. It was too much for the Doctor. At the gate he was met by Dr. Wilson in a high state of excitement. They held a consultation, but couldn ' t diagnose the case. Then by dint of much persuasion, Dr. Wilson succeeded in viewing the body, and also the paint. He had an inspiration. Hurrying to the ' phone, he called Main 27. It ' s a joke, he said. For heaven ' s sake keep it out of the papers! It was breaking day when the P. G. E. ' s left the jail. They sneaked up back alleys and by-ways. Theodore took a cab. Jack Spencer is now meekly pursuing his studies at an Agricultural School in the Far West. 192 909 (Srag Hags There is no glare of blue in earth or sky, But all is gray; All shadowed gray the peaceful waters lie This fair gray day; The drifting old gray boat in silence rides Unto the sea, The while the smooth gray wave beneath it glides As silently.

S ' 1909 By Wilson G. Smilie, ' 08. Second Prize Story. [ORRIS TRENHOLME sprang up the broad stone steps with quick strides, and with the same quick energy, pushed the door- bell. A soft step came down the heavily-carpeted hall, and the door was opened by the maid. Miss Dickson in? Tell her I ' m here, please. Yes, sir. Just step into the next room. Norris walked into the room, and sat down in an arm-chair before the blaz- ing grate fire. Don ' t turn on the light, please. It ' s very nice just as it is. Yes, sir. And the maid withdrew quietly. Trenholme was soon deep in reverie. It was his last year in College. In the Spring he would be a full-fledged Engineer, with a good position before him. It was a nice thing to spend Christmas at home, particularly because Beatrice was at home, too. How did she feel toward him, anyhow? He knew how he stood himself, and had gotten up his courage to find out tonight how much she cared for him. But now that she was about to come in, his courage began to fail. With elbow on the chair arm, and chin in his palm, he stared into the fire, and thought deeply. He was slowly awakened from his reverie by the half unconscious feel- ing of someone beside him. He turned, and saw Binks, the five-year-old brother of Beatrice, who had come in noiselessly, and was looking into the fire. The boy was in his night-clothes, and his arms were full of Christmas toys. Vat do you see in dere, Twenie? Hello, Binks! Oh! I didn ' t see anything. I was just thinking, said Norris, as he drew Binks on his knee. What do you see? I see a big goblin, wif a long tongue, and big, red eyes, and curly horns, and great big teef. If he could get out here, he would eat us; but he can ' t get out. Say, Twenie, sister says you ' re an engineer. Won ' t you fix my new engine? I bwoke it. Norris took up the little toy and fixed the broken wheel in place. Fanks awfully. Say, Twenie, do you love Beatty? That ' s a hard question to answer, Binks. But why do you ask? Oh, cause I fink she loves you. Last night mamma says, at the table, zat you are coming home for Christmas, and papa says: ' Oh, dat ' s de young man wif de great big ears, and everybody laughed but Betty, and she got mad. Norris smiled to himself, but said nothing. The child sat quietly for a few minutes, blinking at the fire, and warming his toes. 195 Tell me a story, Twenie, he finally demanded. Sister says you tell awful nice stories. What ' s that sister says? a voice behind them broke in, and Trenholme rose to meet Beatrice, who had come into the room while they were talking. She was a tall, slender, graceful girl, with dark wavy hair, big blue eyes, and a mouth that always smiled. Binks entertaining you, Mr. Trenholme? You have a warm place in his heart, for he often speaks of you. How did you get down here, baby? Oh, my engine was bwoke, and I wanted to talk to Twenie. I asked him if he loved you, and he said zat was a hard question to answer. Now he ' s going to tell me a story. Norris thought he saw just the faintest trace of a blush come to her face, but concluded at once that it was the play of the fire-light. She sank into a cozy chair on the other side of the fire, and arranged the cushions comfortably. Go on with the story, Mr. Trenholme. We ' re listening. The child nestled his head in the curve of the big arm, and sighed con- tentedly. Yes, Twenie, tell us a story. A fight story! Well, once upon a time, began Norris, a long time ago, away up in the cold, cold North, there lived an old king, Olaf, and his two sons, Eric and ' Rudolph the Sunny. ' They were big men, almost giants, and Olaf and Eric were very fierce. One awfully cold winter, Olaf said to his two sons: ' It is very cold here. Our families will starve, and all the people, unless we do something. Let us go to the land of the Sunny South and get something to eat. ' So the father and sons got all the fighting men, and sailed through a terrible storm to the Southland. One day they came to a beautiful town, and the fierce men of the North steered their boats into the harbor and landed. The South people fought bravely, and many were killed; but the Norsemen were fighting for the lives of their wives and children. Little by little, the people of the town were driven back into the forest. Then the giants hunted through the town, and took everything they could find to eat and loaded it on their ships. Then Olaf called all his men before him, and said: ' This is a pleasant place. Here it is never cold, and there is always plenty to eat. Let us go to our homes and bring our families to this place. ' So they sailed for home, and got all the people of the town and other towns, and everything they had, and when the summer came, they sailed again for the South. When the people of the South saw them, they said: ' Here come the fierce men of the North. Let us run to the forest. ' So they ran back out of the town, and Olaf and his men took possession. Then Olaf called all the people around him, and said: ' ' This is our country and our home. I will build here three castles — one for myself and my household, one for Eric and his household, and one for 196 Rudolph the Sunny, which shall be his on the day he is married. We shall fish the streams, and hunt the game, and till the soil. And these three castles shall be called the three homes, or The Castles of Trenholme. ' So the castles were built, and the one for Rudolph was left until the day he should be married. One day, when Rudolph was following a deer, a long way from home, the trail led up a narrow dell, down which a tiny stream flowed. Closely following the trail, he had not looked up for some time, when he heard a sudden movement in front of him. He glanced up quickly, and then stopped, astounded, for there stood the most beautiful girl he had ever seen — a girl of the Southland, tall, grace- ful, blue-eyed, and dark-haired. She had been picking berries, and had not seen him coming. Now she stood in terror, expecting the young giant to kill her. But ' Rudolph the Sunny ' had not the fierce disposition of his father. Amused at the terror of the girl, his face broke into a smile, and soon an answering smile lurked in the dimples of the girl ' s face. Then, in a flash, she was gone. All that day, and for many days that smile haunted the thoughts of Rudolph. Many times he returned to the spot, and almost gave up hope. But one day his persistence was rewarded, for again he found her picking berries. This time she told him that she was the only daughter of the Chief of the men of the South, and he told her of the empty Castle of Trenholme, and that his name was ' Rudolph the Sunny. ' Many times he met the girl in the sunny glen, until the day seemed lost unless he had spent an hour there. One soft spring day, Rudolph went as usual to the trysting place, but the dark-haired Southern girl did not come. The only explanation was a few words on a piece of bark: ' My father has heard of you, and is very, very angry. He intends to marry me to my cousin a week from today. Meet me here tomorrow at the accustomed time. ' Next morning Rudolph departed for the glen at daybreak, and hid among the great trees by the brookside. At the usual time, the girl burst through some bushes on the other side of the stream, and in a moment Rudolph was by her side. ' Come! Come! ' she said. ' Niy father is following close behind! ' Even as she spoke, Rudolph heard the crashing of many men through the fallen timber. In a flash the girl was off up the glen, Rudolph following close behind. Together they fled through the forest, the wild cries of the Southmen growing fainter and fainter in their ears. Then they came to a ledge of rock, hidden by under-brush, and the girl stumbled and fell. Rudolph helped her up quickly, but she fell back with a cry of pain. ' My ankle is broken, ' she said. ' Go! Go quickly! They will not harm me, but they will show you no mercy ! ' Rudolph stooped down and took the precious burden in his arms. Then the girl smiled to him encouragingly, but a moment later he felt her faint away with the pain. On and on he stumbled. He heard the pursuers coming closer and closer. Each breath was a quick sob, and his heart was fairly bursting, but he struggled on. If he could only hide somewhere, if he could only reach the ridge of the mountains! He must escape — yet through it all was the sickening 197 1909 9©9 sense that he could not escape. Then, all at once, there arose behind him wild cries of triumph, for the Southmen had caught sight of him, and were close behind. With all the defiance and terrible despair of a wounded tiger protecting her young, Rudolph turned upon his pursuers. Even as he turned the arrow of the Chief of the Southmen flew with deadly precision straight through the body of the girl, and the heart of ' Rudolph the Sunny. ' The grate fire had died down to coals, and the child was sleeping quietly in Norris ' arms. He got up from his chair, laid the child tenderly in its depths, and walked over to the other side of the fire. God would not let it rest there, he continued, quietly, but has given them another life to live. And now the boy of the North is wondering if the girl of the South recognizes him, and will come with him, as before, to the empty Castle of Trenholme. There was a long, long silence, broken only by the purr of the dying coals and the deep breathing of the child. Norris, finally began the girl, softly, I have not dared to think that any living being held that key to my life. I thought it only a wild dream, a fantasy of my childhood. The story you have told me, Norris, has been a part of me since ever I can remember. God has been very good to us. Let us begin our lives together, just where they ended. A few minutes later Binks sat up in the big chair, rubbed his eyes, and mur- mured, sleepily: You do love Betty, don ' t you, Twenie? 3fa a Bwtvtb Sfeltr Here ' s to the dim old college gym, Here ' s to her big red gable ; Here ' s to the pride of the campus-side; Pike built the thing for a stable. 198 3 If a I t n h a r 199 c s I 8:3 §£? 1 v £ ts. i • N S 1 1 1 ' -2 o, ' ■ : J8 .

Professor Gile, who has so long and so efficiently served as principal, resigned at the end of last year. His place has been taken by Professor Park, of Amherst. Largely because of the increasing numbers in both institutions it has been necessary to separate Cutler from the College this year to a much greater extent than before. The Academy has its own chapel service, and has in other ways been cut off from the old close connection with Colorado College. This policy will be continued, and ultimately result in entire independence. FOURTH CLASS. OFFICERS. President J. K. Brunner Vice-President Clarence Tuckerman Secretary and Treasurer P. Coombs ROLL.

The first meeting of the month, held at the home of some member, is devoted to music. Among other numbers, most delightful selections on the mandolin and ' cello have been given. Myths and folk-lore of various nations are recounted in the second week. At the third meeting of each month, the lives of famous actors and the stories of their plays are taken up, while the last program is wholly extemporaneous. During the year two successful plays were given, When Patty Went to College, by the old members at Christmas time, and Two Little Rebels, by the new girls, in the early part of March.

CAMPUS COMPANION May, 1908 A Senior Tea Party Who has some lemons? Ruth called as she marched up and down the hall. Say, girls, it ' s too rainy to go to gym, so come on down to my room and I ' ll make some tea. I saw some of the town girls in the library and told ' em to come over and we ' d discuss Platonic friendship. Thanks for the lemon, Phoebe. You always have More lemons than you know what to do with, don ' t you? Ruth ducked just in time to miss the Love Sonnets from the Portuguese that was hurled at her. Irene, come in here and cut this lemon while I find Aunt Ruth ' s tea- pot and cups. She ' s gone visiting, and we ' ll have ' em washed and put away by the time she gets back, Ruth said as she hurried down-stairs. Before Ruth had had time to open the box of Social Teas, eight or ten girls had arrived at the party, and made a rush for the couch. The left- overs grabbed pillows and seated them- selves on the floor. Just then a loud shuffling and tramping sounded along the corridor, and someone pounded at the door. Come in! everyone called, and Ruie and Ada burst into the door. Say, girls! Ruie yelled, look at the little Lake Ada ' s leaving outside the door! and pointed to the pool of water at the end of the soaking um- brella, while the girls laughed, and Ada ' s hair turned a shade redder. Well, I s ' pose you all expected to see Ruie here, Ada retorted. She ' s so fond of T. Here comes Amy, Pinkie, and Mabel Emery from Band meeting, Edna announced. When ' s your next picnic, and who are you going to Pape- town with next Sunday, Pinkie? D ' you know, girls, this Volunteer Band puts out new inducements each week. Mabel made a good Hall there. If I thought there was any show for me, I ' d join. Here come Helen Sloane and Grace Trowbridge, Edna announced again. Grace is always the last one, so I guess we ' re all here. Shall I put the tea in, Ruth? Pinkie volunteered. I ' m nearest it. Ernestine Parsons, always on the lookout for artistic effects, leaned to- ward Ruie and whispered: Doesn ' t Pinkie look sweet bending over the tea- kettle? I ' d love to paint her. Gee! kids, did you hear that sick one? Ernestine said Pinkie looked so sweet she ' d like to Paint ' er! While the girls were laughing at Ernestine ' s ultra-dignified air, Ruth passed the cookies. Ruth, these are ummy good cook- ies. Where ' d you get these? asked Rose Burbank. At Burgess ' , Rose, Ruth an- swered. I thought you would like them. Oh, you people are such frenzied fussers, said Edith Hall. If you ' d belong to my exclusive ' unpop ' society 220 Vol. XXIII. CAMPUS COMPANION May, 1908 and be on the Executive Board, you ' d get something worth while out of life. Cheer up, Edith; I heard some- thing nice about you the other day — really I did, said the good-natured Amy. I was sitting in the back of the room with a lot of Freshmen at Y. W. Friday, and when you came in they said: ' There ' s that nice Edith Hall. She ' s just too nice to be a Senior. Hard on the rest of us, wasn ' t it, girls? Pass me a cookie for that, Edith. Edith passed her a cookie and asked: Who said that? Can ' t tell, Amy said. But it wasn ' t anyone in your ' select society. ' Please pass me a cookie, Ruth. Thanks. What ' s that queer thing you are making, Mabel? said Mary Mc- Creery. Why, this is a cover I ' m making for the phonograph I ' m going to take to China. Doesn ' t he think he ' ll hear your voice enough without that, Mabel? said Ruie. The phonograph is to sing hymns to the heathen Chinese, my dear. I ' ll have a him all to myself, said Mabel blushing a little. Say, Mabel, aren ' t you rather afraid to go all the way to China to meet him? S ' pose you didn ' t like him after you were over there? said the interested Phoebe. I wouldn ' t go twenty thousand miles to marry any man, said Edith Hall. You ' d take an airship and fly, Edith; you wouldn ' t just go, Mabel replied. I wouldn ' t buy my engage- that ' s one thing sure, said Well, ment ring, Edith. Why, girls, if I could get a man, I ' d buy two rings if he wanted me to, said the honest Mary. By the way, Rhoda, wasn ' t that a little velvet box you got yesterday? asked Ida. The one with Lord Bob ' s address on the inside of the paper. Don ' t blush about it. Just tell us. Ida, you musn ' t judge everyone by yourself, said Kdoha. Why — a — why that little box was — a — little stone we — a — I found last year in Geology A. Gee, kids! a diamond in the rough. Did Dr. Finlay help you find it? asked the irrepressible Ruie. Why, no, said Miss Haynes, with all the dignity of the President of Student Government. Dr. Finlay wasn ' t along — a — I mean — this was when we — a — was doing our origi- nal research work. Oh, yes; analysis of that conglom- erate called the heart, I suppose, Ida said. Oh, yes, Ida, you believe in Pla- tonic friendship, don ' t you? Rhoda asked quickly. Why, of course, I believe in Pla- tonic friendship, Ida replied. All college friendships are Platonic, my dear. I believe in it thoroughly, girls, said Marie Roberts, in her slow, pre- cise way. The men I see are always most polite, but never over friendly, never over friendly. I agree with Marie, girls, said Edna. You know my father threat- ened to take me out of College when I wrote him about our Leap Year party, and that I won two hearts. ' My dear daughter, ' he wrote, ' I fear you will make these two young men enemies for (Continued on Page 225.) 900 221 1909 Vol. XXIII.

The Hero was tall and slender. He looked as though he had been made, one piece at a time, and fitted together by a Frenchman engineer. Contrary to the ordinary run of heroes, this one wore glasses. His nose was short and covered on the end with fine hair. To the audience he had an air of being unhappy. The Villains who roamed about, will bear no very minute description. They all had black hair, and eyes which made you think of snakes. One other common characteristic they had — that of being Juniors. The Others were mreely Profes- sors and stage hands. I do not remember whether the Hero stood perfectly still and composed or paced the ground restlessly. Fortu- nately, it does not make any difference. A Villain skulked over near him. The Hero seized the opportunity (most heroes Heroes would have seized the Villain) and said: Oh, Mr. V , I want to speak to you a moment. The Villain raised his beady, black eyes and said: Certainly. The Hero braced his feet, straight- ened his shoulders, threw back his head, opened his mouth, and said: Mr. — , I demand an explanation for the treatment which I received at your hands last night. The Villain stood on one foot, scrutinized the ground, bared his front teeth, and said, with child-like sim- plicity: An explanation of what? The Hero ' s manner changed. He became visibly agitated. His whole form trembled. He leaned forward. His eyes glistened, and the hairs on the end of his nose vibrated menacingly. The Hero would have vengeance — but not yet. Why? Because the Villain smiled encouragingly. Mr. V , I feel that I have received a personal insult. My pride and dignity have been injured. I refer to your cowardly part in tossing me in the blanket before a crowd of jeering spectators. I used to think you were a gentleman. I am disappointed in you; yes, more — I am grieved. I have been personally injured, and I demand retribution. The Hero at this moment took off his glasses, ruffled up the fur on his nose, and cleared the deck for action. The stage hands stood by to hold the coats and steal the jewelry. It surely looked bad for the Villain. In other words, he was about to get his. But at this most opportune moment another Villain, who had been collecting Y. M. C. A. dues, sneaked up behind the Hero. Like a flash the Hero — but- toned up his coat again. Villain No. 1 223 XXIII. CAMPUS COMPANION May, 1908 was for the time being, saved! Villain No. 2 was just on the point of present- ing the Hero with a missionary tract when he noticed that the aforesaid Hero was not in a brotherly love frame of mind. This timely interruption made it necessary for the Hero to start all over again with his personal insults. So he straightened his necktie, adjusted his watch-fob, clenched his fists, gnashed his teeth, looked daggers out of his eyes, kept his glasses on and said in a terrible voice: Mr. V No. 2, you are another of those insubordinate Juniors who so far overstepped their authority last night as to toss an upper- classman in the blanket. My feelings have been hurt, and I demand an apol- ogy from you. Villain No. 2 looked very much frightened (at least he shook from head to foot), and said: Mr. H , I am very sorry we hurt your feelings. I hoped it would break your neck. The stage hands all tittered at this outbreak of insubordination and shifted the wings — I mean their feet. During this last scene, a third Vil- lain had crept stealthily up behind the Hero until his hot breath had been well-nigh perceptible, and had crouched with his bared Outlines of Economics ready, when the time should come, to spring to page 226 and find out what the Laissez-faire Doc- trine was. Beset now upon every side, the Hero played his last card. He relaxed his muscles, bowed his head, shed two or three tears, and said in a voice choked with emotion: Gentlemen, I know I do not mix as much socially as you do. You are all prejudiced against me. I am a hard-working man. I have no time for companionship. I have no time for friendships. I am carrying forty-three hours of recitations and eighty-one hours of laboratory, besides my out- side work. You men are all million- aires ' sons. You reside in the bosom of your families, while I — ah, well! how would you like to spoon with me? The Hero was deeply moved, but he stood perfectly still and shook all over. At this point Villain No. 3, who had been looking sad, stepped forward, and addressing the Hero, said: Mr. H , I am sorry that — The Hero grasped Villain No. 3 calmly by the hand, shed two or three tears, sobbed brokenly, and said : Oh, Mr. V No. 3, I never doubted you. I know that we are friends. Villain No. 3 was also deeply moved. He continued: Yes, Mr. H , I am indeed very sorry that I could not help toss you last night. I was away at the time. I deeply regret my absence, and if you are here again next year, I promise that I will not be away. At this moment the Villains all sneaked off down the alley to dinner. The Hero hissed through his teeth: Cowards, beware, for I will pur- sue this to the bitter end!

Should your son also desire to make a lit., which seems unlikely, pursue Chi Sigma Gamma tactics for Apollonian, and Sigma Chi for Pearsons. Should the latter fail to bring results, it might be advisable to practice the Kappa Sigma manners, though this is by no means sure to work. Dear Editor: — My son and daugh- ter are both expecting to enter College next fall. How would you advise them to act in order that they may make a good fraternity or literary society? Fond Mother. Ans. — It depends entirely upon which organization they desire to asso- ciate themselves with. I should advise your daughter as follows : For Minerva, affect simple manners, be careful to use broad a ' s and dress elegantly, but in taste ; for Contemporary, be up to date, wear the hair rather loose and fuzzy; for Hypatia, wear nose-glasses, always carry several books, and have at least two Copley prints for decorations in her room. Your son should be scrupulous in following these directions: For Kappa Sig., wear fancy hose, rather extreme clothes, and smoke good cigar- ettes; for Sigma Chi, affect excessively masculine ways, wear a sweater-vest, To the Editor: — A suggestion for keeping peace in the library : Useful as the library now is, the writer feels that it can be made to serve an even larger purpose. It has often seemed to me that the rear part might be so arranged as to give more opportunity for congenial conversation, heart-to-heart talks, etc. The students often congregate in this part, and it would be a simple matter to throw across a partition or drop a heavy curtain in such a manner as to make a pleasant parlor for the use of those delighting in the gentler sides of life. Methods of lighting the place need demand little attention. Late in the afternoon the Librarian, with the aid of his assistants, might serve tea. A room of this sort could be easily and comfortably furnished with a few easy chairs and couches. 226 Vol. XXIII. CAMPUS COMPANION The writer offers this suggestion knowing that one of this nature is both needed and feasible. To the Editor: — There is a certain subject which lies close to the hearts of many of your readers, and which some of us feel deserves to have the thorough and searching light of your columsn cast upon it. This is the matter of proper facilities for pedestrians upon the campus. We regret to state that, owing to some strange blindness or careless- ness on the part of the authorities, a sufficient number of paths for the use of students and others have not been pro- vided. Not to speak of that almost criminal negligence which has forced many and many an industrious young man to spend, in vain, all his leisure hours in a toilsome effort to remedy the need; not to mention their heroic and persevering struggles to keep down the ever-sprout- ing grass along the convenient lines of march ; Mr. Editor, it is with tears that I record that heartless discouragers of merit have actually put up barbed-wire fences around the most convenient cor- ners, and have put up barriers of wood and stone. The Faculty reserve to themselves the privilege of making paths wherever their aesthetic sense bids them so adorn the landscape. Mr. Editor, we protest. We would suggest that as long as cer- tain professors insist upon marking cuts for tardiness that the yshould have re- moved grass on all paths providing an immediate and convenient access to Palmer Hall, or that they order pneu- matic transfer tubes to extend from each of the other halls to the cSience Build- ing.

A Heart-Broken Parent. 909 Dear Editor: — In the last issue of the Campus Companion, I noticed the following statement : One essential to good study, quiet nerves, calm judgment, and clear vision, is undoubtedly silence. An excellent sentiment, I feel sure, yet shamefully misunderstood. It does not refer to library silence signs. Most decidedly it refers to such notices as the following: Miss C is requested to put away her sweater during exam. week. She is also reminded that absolute silence must be maintained during sleep- ing hours. For some unknown reason, no atten- tion whatever has been paid to this matter of late. I beg of you to use your influence in bringing about some change. For further advice on the subject, call up Main 185. To the Editor: — I write to you, as a person of known ability and exalted rank, to request that you use your in- finite influence to abolish the study of logic in Colorado College. I sent my only son to College — a clever and manly fellow, with no bad habits, able to understand simple language and to count to 115. He has returned from your institution of higher learning shat- tered in health, deteriorated in manners, and with a pronounced tendency to sleep between 8:15 and 9:15 A. M. To the Editor : — There has been an appalling demand of late for souvenirs for memory-books. In fact, the demand has been a serious drain on my bulletin boards. Complying with the gentle spirit of the bulletin clearers (for I always accommodate myself to the ap- parent desires of those with whom I deal), I am sending you for publica- tion some of the more popular souvenirs, whose very familiarity seems to add to their charm and value. On these dark, cold mornings it is increasingly hard to rise in time for breakfast, but the students are reminded that their growing tardiness is a great burden to all concerned. It is with re- great that I am compelled to remind you that it was never thus at Vassar. As Thanksgiving time approaches, tl e students are requested to call to mind the difficult situation resulting from the excess of goodies with which fond parents tried to allay the pangs of homesickness just a year ago at this time. Letters have been written to the homes, and the students are urged to cooperate in planning to have their little boxes sent at various times during the year. Dean S. P.

CAMPUS COMPANION May, 1908 909 A SUGGESTION FOR IMPROVEMENT OF THE COLLEGE The writer of this article begs to suggest, in his humble and unobtrusive way, a means whereby the general com- fort of the students in general may be greatly enhanced. The suggestion is in the line of more comfortable chairs in certain recitation rooms. The writer humbly feels that it is almost too much for some instruc- tors to expect their hearers to remain awake throughout the whole of an in- credibly stupid and meaningless lecture or discussion. He, therefore, humbly begs the powers that be to give their attention to the purchasing of some such comfortable reclining chairs as those commonly found in chair-cars. The students would probably be glad to cooperate in this plan to the extent of furnishing their own pillows. A Humble Person. To good and bad since the world begun ! To all we have met on our way !

Illustrations by Author. 1909 The plans suggested below have been carefully worked out by a world- famed architect, and are guaranteed to furnish absolute satisfaction. The plan for the main floor includes a large, roomy dining-room, built on the old English style, with gable roof and natural rafters. At the far end of traction is the fireplace, in which sparks may be watched and dead hopes buried. At the right of the Unpops ' Assem- bly Hall is the Fusser ' s Parlor. The unique features of this room are the booths and the window into the private parlor. The booths, or individual par- lorettes, are conveniences greatly desired the room a dias may be added if de- sired. The windows are large and light at either side, while at the end, almost the entire wall is occupied by a marvel of stained glass. The front room is arranged particu- larly for the unpops of the hall. It is large enough to hold most of them com- fortably at the same time. Its one at- by generations past, and hailed with de- light by the children of the present day. They are only 7 feet 6 inches high, so that the light from the windows need not be entirely shut off from the rest of the room, and the view from the private parlor window into the room may be assisted by daylight, as well as imagi- nation. 231 Vol. XXIII. CAMPUS COMPANION May, 1908 1909 At the left of the Unpops ' Assembly Hall is the Museum, in which Indian and ancestral curios and heirlooms may be preserved. An heirloom which has lately been basely imitated may well receive prominence in the museum. It is the time honored name, COLO- RADO. Here also we may place such Indian relics as Phi Beta Kappa keys, Faculty rules, etc., etc., which may be used to instruct the rising gen- eration in ancient folk lore. Some of the girls can neither be called fussers nor yet unpops. For them a set-two-or-three has been pro- vided in the form of a window-seat in an alcove. It is hoped that they will sents a most imposing appearance. The white stone of which it is built closely resembles Italian marble, while the sep- arate roofs over the dining and assem- bly halls give the whole building the rambling effect of ancient Anglo-Saxon architecture.

As is evident, this floor is given up to amuse- ment, one end to be used for dancing, the other for theatricals.

CAMPUS COMPANION May, 1908 Helpful Hints to Amateurs 1909 HOW TO DELIVER AN ETHICAL. The first point to be noticed under this important subject is, that to deliver an ethical, you must have something close to your heart. Anything will do. A Phi Beta Kappa key, a Keep Off the Grass sign, or most anything, as long as it is something, and it is close to your heart. With it thus, you must think of it for a time. Again, any time will do as long as you ponder on it for a time. Two or three days is sometimes sufficient, again two or three months may be required. It all depends on the importance of the thing next your heart. If it is a theme on Loyalty, two or three weeks will probably be required; if it is a discussion of Danc- ing, two or three days will be enough. Anyway, weigh it, and weigh it care- fully, and keep it close to your heart. Friday always was the day for ethicals. In fact, an ethical would not be an ethical if it was not ethicalled on Friday. And here we might digress and give a definition of our subject. An ethical is a deliberate deliberation delivered discussing the deteriorating defects and dangers of digressions de- parting from the discretion of deter- mined deportment With this before us, we may proceed. Friday is the day, as we say, and just before lunch the hour. Have your multitude just before dinner. It is then that you will find the people the hungriest, and, until better satisfaction is forthcoming, ethicals will do. Tell the people you have it on your heart. This helps. It is a de- plorable state of affairs for a man to have something on his heart, and almost anyone is glad to help remove such a burden. Then tell them you have weighed it carefully. Things carefully weighed are very popular. The plat- inum mass, which represents a true pound, is sought after by many. Then begin the discussion of your delibera- tion. This is all there is to it, and we are certain that little practice will bring success. HOW TO FEED FORTY BOYS ON FORTY CENTS A WEEK. By Mrs. Howler. [The following statements have been proven practicable at the Shag Hall Feeding Association. — Author.] Unwise forethought and careless buying aid greatly in the saving of foods. Useless left-overs may be care- fully utilized and living made very in- expensive. Every particle of food, no matter what — a half-eaten potato, a chicken ' s backbone, a spoonful of tomatoes or peas — anything, in fact, should be put aside for some special 233 Vol. XXIII. CAMPUS COMPANION May, 1908 1909 purpose. In a boys ' boarding club, it is often inexpedient to buy anything but good old shoulder steak. If care is taken to fry this at least two hours be- fore eating, the meat is brought to a stage where none but the stoutest molars can grind it. Thus firm jaws are de- veloped and appetite much stimulated. But no matter how excellent the ma- terial and skillful the cook, the club is apt to get into trouble unless directed by wise officers. In this connection, the treasurer should be a man carefully chosen, both in respect to his business sagacity and carelessness in handling money. A wise man in this position will keep his weather eye open for easy grocers, and at the same time be diligent in avoiding collectors of all kinds. The steward should be an earnest man with the best interests of himself at heart, chosen on account of his ability to do as the cook tells him. If he possesses these qualities, little else will be re- quired. A last suggestion is essential, and will go far toward giving the boys a great deal of food they never pay for. This is laxness in paying bills. Money saved in this manner is money gained. By following these few and practic- able rules, a club of boys can be well fed and nourished on forty cents a week, if not less. HOW TO TEACH A COLLEGE CLASS. A person who has never had any experience in teaching college students might probably expect this to be a diffi- cult task. In reality, nothing could be simpler. The college professor may or may not possess a good education. It is not necessary that he present a good appearance. There are no require- ments except that he must be a man with an abnormal supply of nerve. Of course, you understand that I use the term nerve in the vulgar sense only. When the time to convene the class arrives, the professor should call the roll. This is not necessary, but it lends dignity to the occasion, and gives those present a sense of importance, which adds materially to the atmosphere. The next step is to ask one or two leading questions. Great care should be exercised in the selection of these questions, for by them only are the stu- dents enabled to turn, in the text-book, to the subject under discussion. To avoid unnecessary delay, then, it is es- sential that they be simple, and refer directly to the subject in hand. After these simple formalities have been carried out, the professor is at liberty to branch off onto any subject which pleases him. If he be possessed of unusual features and a large variety of facial expressions, it is possible that two or three of the class will give at- tention to him for a few minutes. How- ever, no attention is necessary, and is, in fact, seldom given. If the confusion among the members of the class be- comes, during this period, so great as to annoy the janitor, it is allowable, in most instances, for the professor to re- quest that all books be closed. This request applies, of course, only to all those books bearing directly on the sub- ject scheduled for this hour. This is merely an arbitrary rule, and, of course, no one observes it. It is customary, 234 Vol. XXIII. CAMPUS COMPANION May, 1908 however, for the professor to follow this request by a few questions on the text. Unless the student be particularly unskillful in the manipulation of the pages, very satisfactory answers may be got from the books. This part of the lecture is always helpful and instructive to the professor. When the bell rings, the students all rise and leave the room. Before they are all gone, it is customary for the pro- fessor to announce the next lesson. This is a mere formality, handed down from the days when the town crier an- nounced, Nine-fifteen and all ' s well!

First on the list this year come cer- tain works of fiction of unusual merit. A well-known author, Mr. Edward S. Dean, a man of high literary quality, a celebrated authority in educational mat- ters, and a writer of profound thought and strong imaginative power, has re- cently produced his masterpiece, The Romance of the Key. The fresh and natural management of the great Phi Beta Kappa theme adds a wonderful charm. Another delightful work of fiction lately published is Mr. Elijah Clar- ence ' s new romance, The Bluff Un- known. Mr. Clarence is the author of another well-known and much-read production, Not An Easy Course. While we are discussing fiction, we must not omit to mention the work of a rising young author in the West. Mr. Rudisill has given us a few charm- ing sketches, first published, we under- stand, in journalistic form, and now col- lected into one volume under the title, Mistaken. The art of all the stories is delicate and effective; their truth to nature, however, has been challenged by many critics. The most powerful story, perhaps, is that entitled The Wrong Man. We are glad to inform our readers that at last some real American poetry has appeared. There lie before us two dainty volumes of verse in which one finds the real lyrical ring and the rich and varied melody that spring only from an exquisite perfection of art. It is lacking, perhaps, in balance and re- straint, but there is an undertone of HERR LEBBEUS LOOMIS HARDING Elongated Altitudinarian and Basso Profundo Soloist and Dualist ' High as the Alps in Quality Management of Jeanjolota Syndicate.

In the soft melancholy that steals over one in these spring evenings, one sometimes feels the need of just such an expression of tender, delicate sentiment as is found in the other volume. Songs hor Sad Hours is the work of Mr. Alden, a much older and more ex- perienced writer, who is weary of life ' s struggle and sighs only for peace. The half-pathetic, half-solemn cadence of lines like When first I held my breath remind one of Tennyson ' s loveliest and most mournful lyrics. To turn to a more serious aspect of literature, we find in the educational series, now being issued by a well- known house, an interesting book, Winning the Students ' Affection, by C. W. D. Parsons. This work is highly imaginative in style and treat- ment — a fact which somewhat impairs its value to educators, though it is not on that account less interesting to the general reader. Leisure is the attractive title of a new book by Mr. Cadge. We rejoice to find this noted authority arguing so strenuously in favor of a bolishing, or at least diminishing, child labor. The student of tender years, he says, needs, above all things, rest and free- dom from anxiety. Parents and teach- ers should avoid most carefully forcing the youthful mind to an intemperate and pernicious ' schpeed, ' which it can- not sustain. Finally, we have to review a book of supreme and lasting value, which will doubtless stand in after ages beside the works of Homer and Shakespeare. The volume bears upon it the mark of 238 intrinsic excellence; it is the product of titanic toil and effort; it is a work of the centuries, and the high-water mark of Anglo-Saxon achievement is passed here — in the Nugget of 1 909.

And Jackie liked the girls, you know ; He lived at Tick, for years. He liked the Deaness, too, and so He wore a key like hers. But now our Jackie ' s all grown up (Except his cunning face) ; £BK honored him — He hardly knows this place. Some day our Jackie will grow dorvn Like ordinary folk ; Then he ' ll not read this with a frown, But take it as a joke. TO RUTHIE. Sweet Ruthie was the child from Santa Fe, Who came to College some three years ago. How could her mother, so folks said, you know, Send such a baby off so far away? But wisdom ' s power was great, and won the day. And when sweet Ruthie ' s skirts began to grow, And her one curl upon her head did go, 24 She was so changed that folks began to say: How Ruth ' s grown up! And now, these later days, The Freshmen, unsuspicious of her youth, Admire her wisdom, and her knowledge praise. They call her dignified - — how far they miss the truth! Yet she ' s a type, if you ' ll excuse the phrase, — A College woman made of baby Ruth. THE DANCE OF THE FAIRY. A little girl in red and white Went to a ball one moonlight night. Ye gods !

CAMPUS COMPANION (With Humble Apologies to Longfellow.) The shades of night were falling fast, As through the Palmer hallway passed A Prof., who held, in iron clutch, The book we know he loved so much, Psychology ! His brow was sad ; his scowl was deep, Like one who ' s troubled in his sleep ; And from his lips in anguish rung The accents of that unknown tongue, Psychology! By chance a student heard the sound, Walked down the corridor, and found The Prof., who waved in air the book; One ghastly word was in his look — Psychology ! Oh! did I pass? the student said, And looked at him with timid dread, Then, with a look that fear inspired, And a wild voice, the Prof, inquired: Psychology? Yes, was the student ' s quick reply. A tear stood in the Prof. ' s gray eye; His features writhed as if in pain — No. You must try to pass again Psychology! The Prof., now turning toward the door, His mind still full of psychic lore, Walked straight into the wall instead; He thought Beg pardon, but he said, Psychology! May, 1908 909 The shock was great; his weary brain And wearier body, ' neath the strain Succumbed; and lifeless now, he fell Shrieking the word he loved so well — Psychology! 245 Vol. XXIII. CAMPUS COMPANION May, 1908 1909 Bert — That makes me think of what that deaf man said in the Logic Class. He turned to his neighbor and asked: Did the Professor say something? His neighbor replied: No, he just spoke. Gert — Speaking of him reminds me of Simpson. I saw Guy the other day, and I said: Well, what are you going to do this winter? He said: O, I don ' t think much about the win- ters — it ' s the Summers I ' m worrying about. Bert — You know I think Miss Emigh would make a good yell leader. Gert— Why? Bert — O, her voice would Cary you think What does Gert — Yes, but don ' t Red Wood be better? that make you think of? Bert— G. W. Smith! Gert — Did you hear what Adeline said to the waitress the other morning? Bert — No; what? Gert — It was at breakfast. The waitress asked her whether she ' d have wheat or corn muffins, and she said rather absently: I think I ' ll take Graham. Bert — Good-bye, kiddo. Me for me downy davenport.

I have had a Miller Piano in my home for some years, and have found the truest satisfaction in its reliable and solid qualities. It is more, however, than a good piano. Its tone qualities to me are sweet like the sweetness of the human voice and of human life itself. I do not know of any instrument that speaks to me — that is, to my feeling and need — quite as clearly and strongly as the Miller Piano. It is a real companion for a man ' s besl hours, and for his innermost needs. Edgar Whitaker Work, 631 West End Ave. Pastor of Fourth Presbyterian Church.
