If these pages seem to deepen our f t als brine back recollections of dear Vlove for old Drury, and, in the u ure ye' ' , ' D days gone by, We shall not consider our labor to have been in vain. No matter how far We leave the old familiar scenes of the campus behind, may We never forget the happy days we spent together in 1903. N. 7 FACULTY. HODIER T. FULLER, PH. D., D.

WHITE.de Wliether the change in the external aspect of Drury from that of former days has its counterpart in the inner life of the institution, it is difficult to say for one who now only sees the surface. That it is diferent it is easy to guess. though the diiference must be of detail, of texture, of minute lines, rather than of broad contrasts, as the surface is. Twenty-Eve years ago the only buildings on the campus were Fairbanks Hall and the old Academy building. The Museum building was occupied by the colored school, between whose pupils and Drury students there were at times hostilities expressed in more strenuous fashion than snow balls would permit. The stately oak trees of the campus were pliant saplings, for the bending over and riding of which many a reprimand was delivered in chapel by Dri Morrison. The space in front of Fairbanks Hall was a bleak bare prairie, the base ball ground, in fact, and about that time the elm trees which now adorn it were planted by the students on a holiday set apart for that purpose. A ride-pit, relic of the civil war, Zig-zagged across the campus just south of the present Science Hall site. This was likewise demolished by the students in some happy play time presented to them in lieu of recitations. Benton Avenue looking north was a road through the woods, blazed but not traveled, and all the territory north and east, including the region where McCullagh now stands, was an unex- plored forest, purchased awhile before by Chas. Harwood for sixteen dollars an acre. One lone house stood directly across Benton Avenue from Fairbanks Hall. This house was known far and wide as the HWhite Housew because there was evidence upon close inspection that at some previous time-so remote, how- ever, that the memory of man had not taken note of it-it had been painted white. Students had rooms there and boarded there, thus making it a part of the institution. The Faculty was three or four in number, but in quality it is doubtful if since that day they have been matched. The students were likewise few in number, but in variety, in the possession and manifestation of the contrasting and varying qualities which make human nature a problem of perennial and perplexing interest, they were probably as rich as any group of students that +Mr. White was the first student enrolled in Drury. 13 ever matriculated there. On this point, however, it is best not to be too specific, because those students are mostly still alive and the law of libel is still in force. Chapel exercises were held in No. 5 of the Academy Building and likewise there met the AH Rhetorical Class every Friday afternoon. The A Rhetor- ical Class Was then, relatively, a much more important and serious-' fpropositionw .' , 1115.1 ,, I, j' J ' I-14' ', 1 -V951-'K' H,-1. , NVHERE DRURY WAS S'rAR'rED. is the only Word Which iits the case-than it is now. in the College proper, and they were not so numerous come on for a part every three Weeks. The parts Were no dramatic presentations, no story Writing. Orations, with each other. The students were kept most of the It comprised all students but that each one could all original and serious, essays. debates alternated time thinking about their coming parts. These made food for discussion whenever they came together. Political, religious, scientihc and sociological questions Were fought out on the 14 floor of No. 5 on A Rhetorical days, with a Warmth, a finish, a completeness, that Parliaments, Congresses, Conventions and Synods never equal and seldom approach. Likewise, the Literary societies were smaller, affording more opportunity for each member. There was a time, soon after the great rebellion of '77-in which the Nestorians revolted from the old D. K. A.-When every member of the Nestorian Society came on for a part every week, and at no time in its history were those parts so excellent. Rhetoricals in those days occupied about the same relative place in the af- fections of the students and teachers that Athletics hold now. True, they played baseball then, but it was a sort of pastime. It was not a serious business as it is now, and doubtless a game played as they played then would now appear a very crude and uninteresting aiair. 7 5 to 56 or thereabouts Was not an unusual score for a game between Drury and Marshfield or Ozark. 15 44, 4 1 STONE CHAPEL. 16 , .

Albert, at Rogers, has by his leadership made athletics very successful. Jennie Barber has been training the young idea at Thayer, and spending her idle moments playing chess. Upton Carter long ago reported himself as being in the Cement Age , and from his silence, as far as letters are concerned, We judge that he is now thoroughly incased in cement. Jennie Johnson reports that she has this year successfully completed a post graduate course in housekeeping. Jessie Sinith has Won bright laurels in her teaching in the Aurora High School. Madge Stone has scored a great success as general utility nia-nw at Rogers Academy, and is coming up in the World, for the last time heard from she was on stilts.

He recently dedicated a chapel which cost SI0,000, most of the money being raised by himself. Edgar Price, '95, after four years of pastoral work has returned to Yale to take post graduate Work. He says, in a recent letter: My work has gone very pleasantly, I have all I can do, although I am taking only twelve and a half hours a Week, that is enough to keep me at it all the time, for there are papers and papers to prepare. Prof. and Mrs. QC. HQ Richardson are as happy as they used to be, and are enjoying themselves finely. Geo. D. Castor, '98, is making a great record here. There is little doubt but that he will be the scholarship man. Prof. Kent has him helping in some of his work that he expects to pub- lish soon. The other day, when I was dining With Prof. K., he spoke of Castor as 'such a fine student! Forest E. Calland, '93, is Assistant Professor of Latin in Beloit College, Wisconsin.

Q Q ffifi Ei gain 0 il i ll llll r To the class of 1903 we extend our best wishes and heartiest congratula- tions. We think with regret of the time when 1903 will no longer be a part of Drury's active life. For three years we have sat behind you in Chapel and it hardly seems possible that you will not always occupy the seats just in front of us. When on June the eleventh you pass back to us the duty of being Seniors, and of maintaining your high standards of scholarship, and high ideals for Drury, you will leave us no easy task to perform. Perhaps it will be some comfort to you to know that we will miss you al- most if not quite as much as you will miss us. The corners of the library where you have read and studied will be desolateg the books you have read in writing Latin and Psychology parts will be covered with dust, for no class will equal your untiring energy in gathering facts on these subjects. We admire your enthusiastic class spirit, your hearty support of every measure which you undertake. These qualities have done much to increase the true class and college loyalty. . To you belongs the distinction of being the third class to graduate in caps and gowns. We admit that the originality of the idea has startled us somewhat. Perhaps this was caused by our unfamiliarity with them and as we see them more We will learn to like them as much as you do. At Commencement time we will be very sorry to say goodbye to you for the friendship you have had for the lower classes has been very strong. The in- fluence you have exerted on college life will be felt for a long time and 1903 will be remembered by all of us. 24 SENIQR GLASS elif: ! On September 18th, 1900, we mustered twenty-four strong before the En- trance Committee, and the committee drew a sigh of inexplicable significance. Professor Hall greeted our arrival by giving us two pages of De Senectuten for the first lesson. He evidently thought we would come to old age very soon, at least long before we should ever get through College and he wanted us to be well prepared for it. It only took him one lesson to find out, however, that three-quarters of a page a day would take us through fast enough, and history has shown this to be true, for here we are, Juniors, and not one of us grey haired. In athletics we have never shown the white feather. Every branch from football to horsemanship has been nobly supported by our boys and girls. I do not mean that the girls play football,--I was referring to the other. We have set the pace for all classes since our beginning. Every year on the college picnics we have composed poetry, not merely verse and rhyme, but poetry such as only the muses can inspire. Other classes have tried to imitate us, but,-Oh my! let us draw a curtain of charity over their results. When our series is complete-when we, as Seniors, have written the fourth of this great line of masterpieces, they will be bound in vellum and placed on sale at all lead- ing book stores where they can be had by anyone who is willing to cart them off for the binding. When, on a college picnic the aisle is blocked by a singing mass of College boys, a small but mighty band leaps bravely into the thick of the fray and car- ries all before it. When at last quiet is restored and everyone is striving with unnatural silence to straighten his tie or button his collar without the aid of the indispensable mirror, the only sound heard is the triumphant cheer of the victors : f'Rip, Ra! Rip, Ra! Rip, Ra! Roar! Juniors! Juniors! 1904 l 26 JUNIOR GLASS -,, ,xv , ,'. f M,'i2' f'f,,'iI,f'.,f 11: 9 .1 ,J . . -, i ,, iw. dgtf7sQfsFiWZ' I n1'6sf?X'..-' j Nh ' E -fx w X T Q E X Q , N x .

They are not fools, and certainly are not-but there, that is a confession We did not intend to make, but it almost slipped out. The Sophs, though few in number, make up for this by their loyalty to their class and the great enthusiasm with which they undertake anything, Whether it be college pranks or Latin roots. Their motto is 'fPariter insurgite remis,', but some people have dared to say they have not humped them- selves enough in their uu merous tiffs With the Freshmen. The Sophs indignant-ly deny this, and say that the wonderful ingenuity and originality they have shown could not be equalled by any class in school, also that everyone should thank them for the amount of college spirit shown this year. One thing the '05 are proud of is a beautiful picture of the Roman Forum that hangs in the Latin room. This gift to the College expresses in a small de- gree their loyalty to their Alma Mater. Three cheers for the Green and White! Long may it wave! 28 Sornomonm CLASS ...- N 7 .. '7 i X x K 'J , , iigq lf After scratching his head and chewing his pencil for two hours trying to get an inspiration on this f'Conglomerate Mass of Asininityw, the editor came to the conclusion that the subject matter is not of sufficient caliber to furnish inspiration, consequently the following is not poetic romance, but fact. The Freshmen have gotten quite a good deal of notoriety by means of their various and sundry attempts at displaying their greatness and their success has been quite remarkable as far as the display part of it goes. However, the Faculty becoming jealous of the Freshman notoriety, issued a decree condemning them to a life of inactivity for the rest of the year. So far they have been so quiet that we have begun to fear that they have actually begun to study. Freshmen at best are an uncertain lot, a variable quantity, a soluble coni- pound, an unstable mass, and in these respects the present class is not excepted. They are, however, possessed of a spirit of unrest, demoniacal daring, an insa- tiable love of action and an attitude of defiance that is really alarming. In forecasting their future, we can only say that their course through college life will be one of continual war with their rival classes. They will be active and energetic though the price of their warfare be the loss of many a night's sleep and many an ignoble flunk. On the Whole their outlook is hopeful. They have of course, the weaknesses characteristic of their youth, but they also have the energy and daring to win. If their future is as strenuous as their past has been Prexy will End it necessary to spend all his time away from the campus or some bright morning may ind Pearsons Hall a heap of debris with even the College President at the bottom of it. 30 FRESHMAN CLASS ,GTV - 3' 5 , X 5 J . 2 eff- , E f' '-yf , KU 3 i Y , xx I, 4 if .

The Academy is doing some fine Work and the standards are being raised all the time. The students do their part Whenever they are called upon and are always ready to fight for Drury with all their might and main. Some of the rules Seem rather strict, but if they stop to think they can console themselves With the thought that it is all tffor our own goodn 5 no doubt that will be very comforting. If you ask an Academy student, more especially a Fairbanks boy, what he is especially proficient in, he Will certainly say, ffln working oiif marksfl This has come to be a regular Monday morning recreationlg and it is doubtful who en- joys it more, Pater or the boys! It is ahappy life after all and a College student is almost sure to tell you that the time he enjoyed life the most was when he Was a Senior Cad. Then let them go on in their happy-go-lucky Way and not Worry about the trials of being a Freshmen. They will drain that cup to the dregs all too soon! ' 32 f f , SPENCER COTTAGE AND ACADEMY BUILDINGS 33 The Expression Department. 1 The Expression Department this year' shows an increase and growth since last year. The Work is very enjoyable and holds a very prominent place in the College. There is also a special course of study divided into two years, which consists of Voice Culture, Bodily Expression, Dramatic W01'k, Oratory, Study of American and English Poets, Physiology and Hygiene, Physical Culture and Normal Teaching, and Literature in connection with the College. 'Recitals are given during the year. At the close of the two years work a final recital is given which is one of the most interesting features of Coinrnencenient. 34 The Conservatory of Music. The Conservatory of Music offers a very comprehensive eight years, course. Prof. W. A. Chalfant, the director, Was graduated from the New England Conservatory of Music. He is ably assisted by Miss Edith Lapham, instructor in piano, Miss Elizabeth Hull, instructor in violin, and Miss Laura Patrick, instructor in voice. In all there have been one hundred and sixty-eight recitals given. To the seven previous graduates, Miss Mary Teiftis name Will be added this year. The present enrollment is about eighty. We greatly appreciate the excellent numbers which the Violin Depart- ment has furnished on so many programs. The 'Vocal' Department of the Conservatory is one of its most attractive features. For the year 1903 there have been thirty-one pupils enrolled in the vocal class-a picture of which is given above-besides the members of the choral class. At intervals, recitals are given jointly with the Piano Department, also with the Department of Expression.

X The Drury Oratorical Association was founded la sh? XFN.-ii., May 2, 1892, With G. W. Spaulding as President pro Z Iam. There Were fourteen charter members, nine of 3738 Whom were from the class of 1892. The purpose of Z the founders, according to the preamble, Was to promote ' V W :ZK far as possible an interestin the art and practice of ora- tory, to secure for young men more frequent efforts in exteniporaneous speaking, and to help them gain greater proiiciency and deliberateness in the same. The Association at first held its meetings in Stone Chapel, having no rooni of its own, but during the second year of its existence the present room was obtained. The membership of D. O. A. has never been very large, but it has 'ever been the aim of its rnenibers to make up in Work what they lacked in member- ship. Since the founding in 1892, no other organization has done more to develop life and to uphold the honor of Drury in inter-collegiate contests. The debates with Arkansas and VVashburn were conducted by D. O. A. men Who Won three out of four, and in the debates of the past three years she has fur- nished her quota of speakers. The Association is at present in a good condition and doing hard, system- atic Work to accomplish the purpose for which it was founded. 38 IDRURY ORATORIOAL ASSOCIATION LAURIFERAE. Motto, The laurel nods at deeds only. s ..A. . The Lauriferae society was organized in 1893 to increase interest in society work among College girls. During these A ten years the society has realized in some measure the ideals set for it at its beginning. Its membership is the largest in its history, its enthusiasm is boundless, and We hope and be- lieve that its Work is what good society Work should be. The name of Lauriferae brings up to all of us remembrances of jolly times and hard Work, it also brings visions of ourselves When, as verdant Freshmen, pale of face and with trembling voice, we delivered our first part. Many and many times tears have almost started from our eyes When the moving strains of Wagnei' or Bach have issued from our aizrcienzf musical instrument. The songs that have been sung in your hall, Oh Lauriferae, will never be forgotten, and When, in future years, the Lauriferae girls of the last decade shall hear their grand-nieces trilling at the top of their sweet young voices Joe Bones, or 'fThree Black Crows, their memories will go back to the days when the same songs were sung in Lauriferae meeting. We have ceased to re- r gret the loss of some of our strongest members at the time Delta Lambda Kappa was or- ganized for its success proves that our sacrifice was not in vain. 1 - - ' mf.

Dark and dreadful was the day when Word came that Lauriferae, as Well as the Senior Class, was to lose aPage out of its volume. Entreaties, pei-sua-sions, male- dietions were of no avail, so We have tried to assuage our grief by decorating our walls with a tombstone to the departed. , Oh Lauriferae, the memories of the times when We have gathered in your halls Will be some of the brightest of old Drury. In years to come, when we are the members of the past, the memory of happy hours spent in your service Will be as green as the leaves of your own laurel which 'fnods at deeds only. l 40 , -' LA URIFERAE SOCIETY.

Co-education in its highest and broadest sense is our ideal. This club, though young, has graduated some of the best all-round people ever sent out of Drury. Its Work this year has been strong, honest and healthy. It enters heartily into every College enterprise, and can be depended on to do its part in anything.

Its object has been kept continually in view and the fact that it has so nearly approached its ideal has been one of the greatest spurs to the other societies and stimulated them to their present high degree of success. t'RoWiug, not drift- ing,'l the club's motto, is a great stimulus to others to do good Work as Well as to the club7s own men and Women, who will in the future climb together step by step up the stairs of life.

Some of the students of the scientihc course and others Who wished to increase their knowledge of the sciences thought some organization would be very helpful in connection with their Work, and so an association was formed. Although the membership is not large, the association is strong and does some good Work. Meetings are held the second Tuesday night of each month. The society is divided into departments of Geology, Zotilogy, Psychology, Physics and Astronomy, Botany and Chemistry, with a director for each depart- ment. A meeting is devoted to each subject and it is the duty of the director of each depart-ment to furnish a program for the evening, and papers on diierent phases of the subject are Written and are open for informal discussion after they are read. 44 THE DRURY SCIENTIFIC AssooIA'r1oN Webster Literary Society. VVebst-er Literary Society, composed of Academy boys, meets in Webster Hall every Saturday evening at 8:15 o7clock. During this year Webster has been doing excellent work. We started in on this yeai-'s work with a few ener- getic members who were old students, and new members have been continually added to the roll. There has been an interest and an earnestness in the work of most of the members and the meetings as a result have been very interesting. Webster has had many strong boys among its members this year, boys of whom she can justly be proud-who give promise of developing into men of influence and power. ' Some of the enjoyable features of a year's work in Webster are the joint sessions with Alpha Phi which are held usually two or three times a year, the joint open session held annually in Stone Chapel, and the annual Webster-Alpha Phi reception ,Qgiven by Prof. and Mrs. Howland at Fairbanks Hall. NVEBSTER SOCIETY Alpha Phi. This society has the distinction of being the oldest now in Drury. It was organized in 1883 and for ten years Was the only girls' society, but in 1893 the College girls drew off and formed Lauriferm and since that time Alpha Phi has been the society for the Academy girls. Alpha Phi has had several different places for holding its sessions. At one time a room of the Academy building was used, at another, one of the rooms on the fourth fioor of Fairbanks Hall--when that Was the girls, home-and the parlors of Fairbanks have been used also. Since McCullagh was built Alpha Phi and Lauriferw have shared a hall there. This society, like all others, has had its days of disappointment and trial, but has always come up with a determination to Work harder. The meetings are held every Tuesday afternoon after school, and occasional joint sessions with Webstvei' are held 5 also an annual open session with Webster' is given. 48 45 A LPHA Pm SOCIETY The development of true Christian character was one of the chief aims of those who founded Drury College and this idea has been constantly held before our students. Out of this spirit has grown the Young Men's Christian Associa- tion, which has become a great power for good on the campus. The object of this Association is to bring men to a saving knowledge of- our Lord Jesus Christ to lead them to better Christian lives and to train them in Christls service Wher- ever their lot may be cast. The work for the past year has been very successful and the boys are look- ing forward to better things in the future. Last suinrner they sent ive delegates to the Conference at Lake Geneva and the help and inspiration they received there has been of very great benefit to the Whole association. In the fall a del- egate was sent to the regular State Convention and brought back an enthusiastic report. Mr. Moore, the State Secretary, was here the last of January and helped the boys greatly in his quiet, earnest way. It was owing to the efforts of the Y. M. C. A. that we were able to hear Dr. Graham Taylor of Chicago Theologi- cal Seminary. His visit was an inspiration to us all and while it lifted our thoughts to higher things it also broadened our View of life and taught us the true spirit of Christian fellowship. Qfficersfor 1903.

The Young VVoman's Christian Association of Drury was organized in 1886, with Miss Sadie Morrison as president. The meetings were held at first in one of the recitation rooms of the chapel building, then in a room which the As- sociation furnished in the basement of Fairbanks Hall. Later it moved down to a room in the Gymnasium, for the past two years it has met in the parlor at McCullagh. Next year, however, a room in the old Museum building is to be given to the Y. W. C. A. and Y. M. C. A. for permanent use. This is to have new paper and probably new flooring and ceiling. Quite a sum of money has already been deposited in the bank for new furnishings. . The Association has been in good condition this year, and its Wednesday afternoon prayer-meetings have been thoughtful, earnest ones. Miss MeCorkle's tive day's visit gave us a fresh spiritual uplift and a more vital desire to live the Christ-life. Y. W. hopes to send two delegates to the Summer Conference at Lake Geneva, VVis., and the girls are working strenuously to earn the funds. Retiring Ojjicers. Incoming Officers.

The first copy of the Mirror was published September 24, 1886. It was then as now a semi-monthly paper. The form in the beginning was the four page blanket size, but since then it has been changed to a more convenient mag- azine size. An editorial of the first number was, The Mirror is published to promote the welfare of Drury and to unite in closer ties the students and the Alumnw to their Alma Mater. The students of 1903, in looking over its his- tory can see that it has fulfilled in a great measure this wish. It has upheld at all times high ideals for college life and has certainly increased our love and appreciation for Drury. Through the pages of the Mirror every interest of college life is felt. In it the work of the Christian Associations and the Societies is brought to our no- tice, here our achievements in athletics are recorded, the good times we have had at class parties and the jokes in the class room are faithfully kept for our future enjoyment. The Mirror many times has served to show us many of our faults and shortcomings, and it has always done so in such a pleasant way that we could not but give heed to its admonitions. The best thing about the Mirroris that it belongs to every student. Every association, society or class has the right and privilege to contribute any article of interest to itself or the college. As most of the articles in the Mirror are Written by the students, a great share of the responsibility for its success rests with us. We should be ready and willing to do everything in our power to make it succeed. We who read the Mirror do not very often stop to consider to whom a large part of the credit for its attractiveness is due. Upon the Editor and Man- ager rests all the responsibility of gathering the material together, arranging it properly and getting the paper out on time. Their conscientious work goes a great Way toward making the Mirror the successful paper that it is. I 56 Third Annual Drury-Central Debate. Held at Drury April 24, 1903.

Slowly sinks the evening sun, A halo round us throwing, And from the brook across the dell, A melody is flowing. The rustling leaves with murnnirs soft, Of zephyrs ever sighing, All combine to weave a charm, That sends our fancies liying. How sweet to rest in dreamy ease, With tho'ts forever roaming Oler vistas wide of N aturels works, At eventide and gleaming. Wlien sun has set and stars peep out, And evening dews are falling, Our feelings, tho'ts, our very souls, Well out to Nature's calling. Tho'ts at last glide into dreams, Dreams of sweetest meaning, That all mankind with fervent love, Toward Naturels God is leaning. 58 f' J 4 ,, fr' E YZ: .-fy V' K x ' ,V-' MW ' X NX .li ' A- - X: ,Q X .XM X . . .r K 2, 1, 1 - :Iwi-N XSL .w M N ..

The football sea.son of 1902 has been a very remarkable one for Drury. This is the first season that the team has been trained by a regular coach and the result has been very satisfactoay. , At the beginning of the season, although almost all the members were of the team were old players, yet they were in a poor condition for football, but as the season advanced, the effect of regular training could be plainly seen. The Hrst game of the season was played with the Ft. Scott High School team, which resulted in a score of 17-0 in favor of Drury. The next game was played at Ft. Scott with the same team. Neither side scored until the last few minutes of the game when the opposing team succeeded in kicking a Held goal, which made the score 5-O in favor of Ft. Scott. Then our team went to Liberty, Mo., to play the Vlilliam Jewell team, and this game was played well all through. Both teams scored but Drury failed to kick the goal and this made the score 6-5 in favor of WVilliam Jewell. The next game was played with the Miners at Rolla. It was during this game that the result of regular practice and good coaching was displayed. On account of previous defeats on the Rolla gridiron, -and because of the size and appearance of the opposing team, the Drury boys were rather discouraged, and scarcely had the game begun when the Rolla team scored. Instead of further discouraging the Drury team, this seemed to brace them up and make them more determined to win, for in less than four minutes after they got the ball, they made a touch down. From this time on both teams played as hard as possible and the ground was disputed foot by foot, but at the close of the game the score stood ll-10 in favor of Drury. The,Thanksgiving game was played with the William Jewell team on the Drury Held. This team, which had beaten our boys earlier in the season, now found that they were no match for them and a score of 17-0 was made against Williaim Jewell. X , H, - - . ' ' Q3 C -E!

'Whatever may be said of the athletics this year nothing more commend- able can be said than that more obstacles have been met and overcome in the organization of a baseball team than seems possible. Only four men of last year's team were in their places when the season began. But through the self- sacriicing- Work of Mr. Gardiner, a team Was gotten together and trained. There is nothing discouraging in the result of the season so far, in fact, We look for- ward to a successful ending of the year. To the Work of Mr. Gardiner, who has so freely given his time and talent to the training of the team, is due our hearty thanks.

There has been a great deal more interest taken in girls' athletics gener- ally this year, and especially in basket ball. In the fall term two teams were organized which met for regular practice twice a week. One match game was played at Rogers, Arkansas, with the Academy team, in which our team was victorious. Xxx During the winter term there was faithful practice in the gymnasium, and about four practice games were played with the High School girls, every one of which our girls won. Our best match game was played at the Y. M. C. A. gym- masium with the High School team, and we consider our victory there one of the most encouraging. We owe our success largely to Miss Hays who has acted as business manager and coach. A The Team. lV1AUDE HAXVKINS, Right Forward. VERA BRERETON, Left Guard. MINNIE OUTCALT, Left Forward.

Thus did it come about, this dire event which made the 'Varsity come near losing her baseball record and almost hurled the baseball manager into a state of grey-headedness. To have seen the spot, one would never have thought that a thing so ter- rible in its results could have happened there. The smoothly cut lawn, the tall old trees, the blue lake close by, the beautiful old buildings, the winding paths, the sunset, the evening glow, the maids and men. From little tables scattered around, the girls were serving dainty things to eat, the cakes and ices came from a charming little bower and the girl who presided over this was kept more than busy serving and talking to the swarm that hovered around. Miss Margaret Fane was particularly ingenious and had fashioned this little bower out of boughs and trailing vines in a little grove of elms just off the main path. In the center of it was a large calla bloom at least four feet high, in reality painted wood, but so perfect in its make believe that its real character was not apparent. ln this were concealed the freezers of ices. Some counter- feit buttercups held the cakes, and a dainty little play fountain, made of hose and big stones, completed the picture. But she who presided over it and handed out the sweets from the heart of the flowers was not Margaret Fane this evening, but a gay little bumble-bee, from her pretty little head to her tiny little feet, all dressed in yellow, save for her big black wings and big, saucy black hat. However, she was not happy, and now, as she bobbed down into the big calla for a cup of ice, she said to herself impatiently, Why doesn't Clark come! He said held be here at four-thirty and now it is almost six V' Oh, Miss Fane, you be Qbeej so pretty ! said a snippy dude as she handed him two ices. She did not catch his much prized pun, for she had turned for the forty-'leventh time to peer through the vines in the hope of seeing Clark Dalton on the path to the bower. He was not to be seen, however, and in her impatience she made a dire resolve. He has no right to treat me in this way, after he asked me to save every- thing for him, lunch and a boating and a stroll to the daisy field. I will not stand it. I'm not going to be cheated out of all the fun! Illl have lunch with the next one that asks me and forget all about him. l'll just teach hima lesson. 70 At this moment one of Clark Dalton's classmates, Reginald Drake, came up. Miss Margaret! Perfectly charming! But you look tired. Come, get some one to take your place and go out on the lake with me. It will rest you and will please me above all things. Just wait and I7 ll get you an icefl Thank youf' she said, although at this moment she saw Clark coming in the distance. I don't care, Ifll just teach him a lesson ! The truth of the matter was that Clark had been unavoidably detained with a committee meeting relative to the next day's baseball game and had sent word to Margaret by Drake that he would be there just as soon as it was possible. Reginald, however, had completely forgotten it until a moment before, when, having wearied of the beastly slow time he was having, he determined on a lark. Old Clark ought to have cut that committee meeting out. He could have told them of his engagement here and slipped out of it. It didn't come up until the last thing. He is so beastly dutiful though. Well, I'll just cut him out here since he's not on hand. It'll be great! he thought to himself. It was then that he had gone hurriedly and made the engagement with Margaret. They now strolled to a merry group of people and Reginald went after the ices. He had just gone and Margaret was chatting gaily with Sidney Haswell, the baseball manager, When Dalton hurriedly joined them. Q f'Well, Margaret, I'm here at last! Forgive me ! he said, so intent on making his excuses and admiring her that he forgot his civilities to the crowd. Well, old man, ain't you going to say, 'howdy' to a fellow? and Has- well slapped him on the back. Having greeted the rest he came up to Margaret as the others resumed their small talk. 'fLet-'s have lunch now, shall we? and I'll tell you all about it. What shall I get-a salad H1-st? The bumble-bee was sharpening her sting. She had resolved to make his lesson hard. Yes, a salad, please, you will find it at that furthest table-the one under the big locust. Dalton hurried away. The baseball manager turned to her with unguarded surprise. Had you forgotten your engagement with Drake?l' No, she said, with a dainty wink, and Reginald came up. 71 ,,- Goodbye, Mr. Haswellj' she called gaily as she walked with Reginald toward the lake. I f'Well, by Jove! If girls aren't queer! Guns, but thatfs hard on the old chap. I'll go and tell himil In all his experience he had never been so staggered and thoughts came slowly. But he turned presently to go and find Dalton only to meet him face to face with a tray in each hand and eyes searching the group for Margaret. In the meantime, Jimmie Sanders, the worst tease ever iniiicted on humankind, had taken in the situation and called out, t'Well, Clark, you're cut-you're amputated-you're dead! Salads for sale, eh? More than you can use? Dalton looked toward the lake and there, lightly drifting on its surface, were Reginald and the Bumble-Bee calmly eating ice. The manager ached to know what to do. After a moment he said, Here, Hal and Jean want to be served. Let me hand them these. Daltonls face was deathly white, all the color had gone from his lips and his eyes burned fire. He let Haswell take the trays and without a word turned on his heel and walked rapidly down the path, looking neither to the right nor left. Ten minutes later he was in his room staring blankly at the wallbefore him. Q5 X if SIE -315 -XE E12 The morning dawned bright and clear and the wind that was feared had entirely lulled by two o'cloek and the diamond was in excellent condition. It was the last baseball game of the season and was to decide the championship of the two schools. Accordingly there was an immense crowd. A steady stream of vehicles all gaily tied with college colors poured in at the gates, and the grand stand already overflowed. Colors were flying, penants waving, and enthusiasm filled the air. Only fifteen minutes! Then it's win or lose! Oh, I canlt waitlu chiined a patriotic mass of veils and curls. The out-of-town team was confident. 4'Why, of course we'll win it! They donlt stand the ghost of a show now. It's true Drake's catching is just about perfect, but Jove, without Dalton theylll pitch the snidest kind of a game l said their Captain. 'fWhat's the matter with him? Did you hear?l' I No, everybody's mum. Itis something about a girl though. Hels hot at the catcher from what I can learn. I tried to pump their manager this morn- 72 ing, but hels like a elam,'l and he stretehediluxuriously on a big pile of sweaters and blankets. Meantime, Haswell, the manager was at his wits' end. f'Illl try onee more, even if it delays the gamej' and he rushed up the steps to Dalton's room. In response to his nervous rap there eame a short, Come inf, He entered. Dalton sat by his study table staring at the wall be- fore him. He did not look around when Haswell entered. Look here, Dalton, you've got to play. Donlt you see that we oanlt win this game without you? You've got to eome! Youlve never deserted us before and you shan't do it now. Youlll regret it all your days, Have your ight with Drake if you will, but for Heavenls sake don't take it out on us. Youler a per- fect ass to stay out of the game just beeause he's in it. Come on, I say! You've got to go Il' Haswell was feverish with excitement. He had slept none the night be- fore, for what time he was not trying to reeoneile Dalton to Drake he was too excited to sleep and all the morning' he had been doing his best to save the game. After Dalton had left the fete Haswell had followed him to his room. Dalton had t-urned to him and with faee white with anger and voice tense With passion had said, I Put in Smith for piteher in to-morrow's game. I will not play on the same team with Drake. Thatls fdnal. Keep it quiet as you can. Haswell had argued and pleaded but all in vain and by this time so resem- bled athnnder cloud that no one dared approach him. Now Dalton made no reply. lf you want to lose the g31119,3,lll'lgl1lf,77 and slammed the door behind him. He now went to the field and signalled to the bugler. The call sounded clear and strong and the two nines came to the diamond amid the howls and eheers of two thousand people. The visiting team went in bats. Margaret Fane had had her misgivings as to the affair of the evening be- fore but she had not quite gotten to the sorry stage. She had heard of Dalton's anger and thought he would get over it, but now she was wondering how he would look today. She leaned forward eagerly to eateh a glimpse of the players, but the big sturdy form with the blonde ourly head was not among them. Her eyes opened wide when the team took its position, and she saw that the pitcher was not Clark. The game began. She saw Reginald Drake's black hair above the eatoher's mask and notieed the splendid work he did in the first inning. Still there was no score. Second inning and still no score. Haswell stood silent on the side line. Things were all right so far but did not promise them muoh, he thought. At this moment the out-of-town team made a home run and their 73 rooters cheered wildly. Haswell said not a word to the men that stood around him. Again the other team made three runs. The score stood 4 to 0 in their favor. Such a score had not been made against the home team this season. Haswell breathed heavily. It's all up! The team has gone to pieces ! he said to himself between tightly closed teeth. The home team was now in bats. The first man fanned. The second let two balls pass and struck a foul. Thus it went all down the line until it came to Drake. With conhdence of bearing he stepped to the bat. The ball cameg he struck and it dropped at the left ielder's feet. The inning closed with him on second base. I Haswell ground his teeth and said not a word. A small boy came up to him with a piece of paper. Haswell read: 'AMY DEAR MR. HASWELL: Why doesn't Clarkson play?

He told her what she had already guessed, also that Dalton had been unavoidably detained and had sent word to her to that effect by Drake. f'Give me a piece of paper, she said. Cn it she wrote: DEAR CLARK: I didn't understand yesterday. Forgive me. Reginald Drake was con- temptible. But overlook it. Don't let that lose the game. Pitch the rest to show me that you forgive me. MARGARET.'7 HTake it to him quickf' A ray of hope came to Haswell and he flew down the steps and was in Dalton's room, a block away, in three minutes. He was so excited that he did not notice that Clark wore his base ball suit. Read it! he thundered, as he stood panting heavily. A Dalton took it and read it quickly. Then he laid it on the table, deliber- ately picked up his cap and opened the door. Haswell followed in silence. if -Y Pk if -Ji SK il? The game ended with a score of 6 to 5 in favor of the home team, and among the enthusiastic admirers that thronged around the big pitcher, the only one he really Wanted to see was a little brown-haired, brown-eyed girl, who had resolved never to be a bumble-bee again. 74 ang In rurg Qlhvstano ervngge migljtg nxhsr, De times: enhnim the Slvnntbatxtanp 2150 honorhzr Gb dylurrh of Iyer fostrmg nrt Smre QC arrhrvs sianlp erect Go bonorber 75 D I :IIN .wxxuww 5 fiqkif- Q ,I,,. gli i 0,5 , I Immxxw J' . 0 X I ki, Q QQ aI ' YQ?

Remarkably pure, only five snakes and ten collar buttons could be found in this case. . 4th Case. One of extraordinary thickness of matter. Several ponsvarollii found, slightly various in aspect. Alarming indications of superannuated ven- tricles, par-boiled by the thickening of the Crina-Busoe. 5th Case. Seven medians very much scorched. Fourteen snid-poops With green eyed tentacles with .ten holes in their stockings. 6zf7L Case. Ten vertebrates found Heating in this case. They were all highly supercilious, though in no Way corrugated. But when treated with Bum- pus-Dioxide by Orlando Furioso Bump, they Were found highly corrosive. 7th Case. A remarkable thing was found in this case. The missing rib from which Eve was formed, Which goes to make up the curiosity of femininity so greatly interesting to Campus John, was found after carefully dilating the bacteria-texasicus found in a semi-semitic condition on one side of the polar hor- ticulturists embeded in ten fathoms of this Water.

Down in sunny Lousiana, Dwelt a little Creole maid, And tho' many gallant suitors At her feet their homage laid, Yet, there was not one among them Who could claim his love repaid, For the girlie had a Papa, Quite as sweet as lemonade. Still the little brown eyed maiden Heard eaeh night a serenade, When some daring suitor lingered, And a mandllin softly played, And the sonnets Written to her, Quite a fearful litter made, When as dawned eaeh bright sprin morning, Papa's hand upon them laid. 3 Now this Papa Was a terror, And it often had been said, In his youth at two score duels, He had made his rival dead. And when now his only daughter On his shoulder laid her head, Swore he that no man should get hei Till he proved his blood was red.

Straight he stood as any poplar, On which ax-blows never fell, Smiling ever, scowling never, ,Tis of him this tale I tell. Now our lady had a poodle, As all stylish ladies do. But the doglet, growing restless, Broke his string and homeward flew. Then the maid ran back to catch it, And her daddy followed, too, While the startled crowd of suitors, Scattered like a ship-wrecked crew. Only one there was who lingered, Dared to face the cavalcade.

Our hopes to some extent have been fulilled, and, trusting that the public will not be disappointed, our librarian has carefully prepared the following brief list of our rarest and most entertaining volumes, from the pens of our most promising authors. The attention of critics is called to a rare little production, 'tCde to the Starfish, by Captain Robert Wagstaft. It appeared in the Fireside Companion, and has much lyric beauty. We can not forbear quoting a few introductory lines: - Oh thou Starfish, now so still! When I think of thee my eyes do fill. Far away on the briny foam, In ages past thou used to roam, And comb thy tentacles with a coral comb. A theological treatise, '4What It Means to Be a Preacher, by John Miller. In f'Six Years a Senior Cad,'7 by Frank Hull, the author speaks feelingly. One of our latest books, Memories of My Babyhoodf' by R. B. Howland, promises to become quite popular. The success of his first work, UNO. 11s, The Sure Cure for Corns, gives this a good recommendation. 4'Methods of Plowing Cornf' by Charles Orr, What Is Poetry Without MusicQkj, by Doss Brittain. We are glad to know that Grant Johnson is able to keep up his journalistic work. His last production is a very learned article on 'fThe Atmosphere at a Height of Twenty Feet Above the Earthf' My Bishopqricyf' by Elder E. C. Lowe, 84 t'Love Lyrics, by Gladys Hopkins, 'fThe Advisability of Outlining Sermons, by Isabel Scott, is Well discussed.

Pater's Pranks, by Philip Erb. Sister Caroline's latest novel is Grandmals Teeth Will Soon Fit Sister , Remarks on Spring Gardening , Jack Garrison, Rais- ing Drakes,H is a helpful little book by Maud Hawkins.

Pnor. W. Y. SELLAR: ' MY DEAR SIR. From a heart almost bursting with joy and gratitude I pour out my veneration and love for you. Wllen you compiled with much burning of the midnight oil your famous book on Latin Authors, little did you realize the inestimable service you would render to the Sophs of Drury. But read on and I will the tale unfold. Know then that the Sophs must read of your stories of Ancient Romans, yea must con them and learn them by rote. Bitterly they complain of the hours spent pouring over your pages, but afterward a day comes when they bless your name, when they hail you benefac- tor. For at Drury there are seasons of torture when the minds of students are examined by an X-ray machine and the innermost recesses searched, they are put on the rack and the last drop of knowledge extracted, During one of these trials, when my strength was spent with the effort of trying to extract knowledge where there was none, a bright star of hope appeared to me. I ceased to study over rhyme and metre , I no longer grubbed up Latin roots which were too dry to handle, my memory reverted to the hours I had spent with you and I told your opinions, your views. I was wafted on the wings of hope, and from the bogs of despair, I flew to mountain-tops Where I-lunking was an impossibility. For years to come your Words of Wisdom will be devoured by the Sophs, and your words will come as a sweet balm in the time of agony. Gratefully, A SOPH. 92 l w l , ll r l li r F ll I. ll I If ll I 5 l sl l 51 l A l 4 l P CD C The Freshman Class Baby.

Wliy should they need to struggle and toil, O'er lessons to groan and frown? Distinction in letters they do not need, For each has a cap and gown. Then here's to our noble Seniors all, Here's the toast-oh, drink it down: For whatever else our Seniors may laek, They each have a cap and gown.

For millions of years the subject of the Greek Digamma has been on the tablets and monuments of Greece. Its evolution is a conglomeration of unrestricted facts, coupled with undistributed and unsophisticated metaphorical allusions to the time when the verb Video, ' 'to see, H and various syncopated nouns were all hyperbolated under the solar system of Rameses II. Now you see, by computing the distance that two Greek letters have in this monosyllabic form, but contracted by minutely spec- ided exegesis, we get unexcelled facilities for better work in the Digamma period known as the Isothermal Tortuosity of Archimedes, who invented knitting, thereby inventing such a uniform acceleration of vowels that the slightest degree of velocity renders the vowels-when a mute is transposed by fixing the degree of latitude, that the Digamma requires, in order to be orderly arranged, to give us the verb Video. Now if we take the Digamma and place it before the verb Video, we get what James I. of England called Bimetallism, getting it slightly mixed with the hordograph of Henry II., who died swallowing two Digammas with Video, un- derstood. When the Digamma was first discovered, it was sitting on a teapot calmly combing its hair with a rat-tailed comb. Then we saw it making its way gradually into German where it appeared in the form of Limburger Cheese, but still retaining its identity, which means in Greek I see. Therefore, taking hot as a stein, putting a Digamma to it, we get Phot meaning in the He- brew Bologna Sausagef' contrasted with what Rameses II. called Video, I see. When you wish to know how a mute, subordinated by a liquid looks, when cremated by vowels, we get I seef' a syncopated vowel, such as Rameses brought out of the ark with ten pounds of Limburger Gheeserets filled in with Digammas chasingaBologna Sausage around ten mutes which were too emotion- ally inclined to get its connection with the monument on which the first Di- gamma was found. By this process of reasoning we can easily trace the evolution of the Di- gamma from the teapot stage to that of Limburger Cheese, upon which founda- tion all scholarly men base their reasoning for the state of the present Digamma. 109 On Fairbanks' Steps Here at the pleasant evening hour, When daily tasks are o'er, We gather on the 'Fairbanks steps, To sing our songs once more. The maple branches spreading wide In silence bend to hear, And hoary Walls of ancient halls, Ring back our tones to cheer. From every corner low a voice That sang in former days, The current of its hopes and joys, Runs softly 'neath our lays. Oh, student songs! no mimic's arts Your inborn charm can gain, Ye cheer our thirsty, dusty hearts, Like freshening drops of rain. When far away in distant days, Life's trouble on us falls, When vigils cease and labor stays, These ivy mantled walls, From every softly Waving leaf Will send some soothing strain To drive us gently from our grief, And give us cheer again. 110 9 ON FAIRBANKB, STEPS 111 Ha!

Though everything in the room suggested ease and comfort, yet he seemed to be more in the spirit of the weather outside. He looked now and then out of the great window at the fine sleet driving through the air and forming a thick coat of ice on every twig and branch. For a long time he sat back in his chair, holding his pen idly be- tween his fingers, looking out upon the bleak landscape. As far as he could see there was only the monotony of the -prairie cut off in the distance by a curtain of sleet. With a melancholy air he turned again to the table before him. At his elbow lay a little blue envelope still unopened. He knew whom it was from and he did not want to read it, so it had lain there since morning. He had tried to devote himself to the work in which he was engaged, which was a geological treatise, but he kept seeing the blue envelope and, in spite of all he could do, his mind went back again and again to the reminisences which it awoke. He saw just such a day as this one when he, a boy of fourteen, was coast- ing down a hill with a girl two years younger. The fine sleet stung their faces, but they didn't mind that, their only thought was of the fun they were having. Again, he saw the same girl grown up. This time she was at a party and he remembered with a pang how beautiful she was and how much she had been ad- mired. He remembered also how cold she was-to him. She seemed to be pleased only when she was with Harvey, and of all men he did not want her to like, Harvey was the Erst. He was selnsh, proud, cruel and conceited, but he was a good talker and he was rich. These things he knew by virtue of having roomed with him for two years at college. And now Alice had chosen Harvey instead of him, and the thought filled him with disgust and auger. He had tried to speak plainly to her, but something in her attitude completely discouraged him. Convinced that his case was hopeless he had gone out on his western geological trip without even saying good bye. And now as he sat there gazing out upon the desolate prairie he wondered if she was still so taken up with Harvey, or if she too had found him out at last. He had heard nothing further of them in his letters from his various friends at home, so he concluded that at least they were not yet married, besides there was the letter from her. What in the world could she be writing him for? Curiosity at length overcame him and he opened the envelope. The letter read: 116 DEAR JACK :-- HI am sorry. Yours, AL1CE.'l He read the note again and then again. Then he got up and threw a few sticks on the ure and sank into a deep easy chair, lost in reflections. The light faded in the room and the gloom of twilight crept in. The wind outside howled angrily like a distant pack of wolves, hungry and irresistible. The embers of the tire fell apart Blling the room with a blood red glow, showing up the Hgure of Jack Holmes in an attitude of deepest reflection. As the room was filled with the light of the dying embers, he rose and lighted the lamp. Pushing aside his geological paper, he took a pen and wrote a long letter. When it was finished he put on his overcoat and hat and trudged to the post-ofiice half a mile away to mail it. As he returned the sleet drove into his face stinging like a whip, but he paid no attention to it. He whistled a gay college air as he walked back over the slippery ground. His whole attitude was that of one perfectly contented with the world. He had only to wait two months until he should return to the East and to Alice. 117 The Tale of the Flag Pole, Act I Q- - ff Lf W 5 . 'f fi Krew!

When the day is hot, the student who has been vainly striving to study, throws down his book and strolls across to the '4Aristocratic , to refresh himself with a lunch of cheese and wafers and a bottle of pop . As he saunters through the door, he is greeted by a hearty welcome from the proprietor, who is always delighted to serve customers from the College. As the student sits down to his cheese and pop the busy little proprietor remarks that it is some warmer and if the student shows any interest, he proceeds to extend the conversation to other subjects. Of course, the heat helps the sale of pop but it makes the ice go faster. He can not understand why ice should be so high this summer and wonders if they have not formed an ice trust in league with the coal trust. The bare thoughts of a coal trust fills him with indignation and he pro- ceeds to tell of a friend of his uncle's who once Worked in a coal mine and after six months was so nearly worked to death that he had to go out West and be- come a cow-boy. Noticing that his visitor is rapt with attention and is gazing vacantly in the direction of a pile of flour sacks, the proprietor begins to talk about the trouble that flour causes him. While the boycott was on Springield flour, he had to buy from Billings, and now it looks as if the boycott would be again put on the local product in which case he will have a lot left on his hands. Boycotts are, to his mind, a nuisance and a help to nobody. Why, he had a friend in Kansas City who owned a store there and carried a cigar on which a boycott was placed and his friendis business was ruined. Here the five minute bell rings and the student swallows the last of his cheese and pop and hurries off to class feeling a thousand times better and more prepared than if he had spent three times as much time on his lessons.

The Sozfwester viii A Millionaire said, If I were a young man anxious for independence, I would invest in a small tract of timber land. When I had it paid for I would put the deed away and forget I had it. Then I would begin paying for another. A Drury student acting on this ad- vice, began in 1886 to purchase timber land. In 1902 he closed out his hold- ings at a net profit of over Sli40,000. The average length of time euch dollar was invested was seven years, and his aver- age profit, 400 per cent. You can do as well. I place investments in undeveloped timber, mineral and farm land, in the Southwest, and have made for many of my clients even greater proportionate profits than the foregoing. It will pay you to investigate. Write for my illustrated literature. WM H JOHNSON, 306 308 Baker Block Springfield, Missouri. 'r l TIS f Y hlagn q td th Hall, the Jeweler 1 F mf, gig?
