It has been the desire of the Junior members. ever since we were Freshmen in Drury, to publish a ebook, because we have felt that we had something to say to the world and We realize that the best method of telling the World anything is to write, for VVhat has been Written shall remain, nor be erased nor written o'er againf' Then a good book is the best monument a person can leave behind when he leaves the world. or that a class can leave when it departs from the embrace of college life. The publishing of a good book is of much benefit to two classes of people. In the first place, it benefits the writer or writers. and then it adds value to the lives of the many readers. It helps the writer in three ways: he must read carefully in order to prepare himself for the work in hand. he must converse much in order to learn human nature and he must then write what he feels in his soul that he wants to write. If Bacon is right, then the man who does these things becomes better in three ways, for he tells us that Reading maketh a full man, conference a ready man, and Writing an exact man. It is the ideal of the Drury Sou 'Wester to be a photograph album, containing the photo of every student and teacher in the college, besides the groups of students taking part in different phases of Drury life: a collection of' short biographies of each person connected with the institution, and a medium in which there are a number of good literary productions. Of course, to vary the monotony, there must be some jokes and several local roasts. Light productions of the right sort serve a great purpose in the literary world as at laalance for the heavy and serious prob- lems. Withoiit our humor we would become a dull, sleepy, prosaic, monotonors people. In this production, we have endeavored to mix the quantities in what seems to us the right proportion. so that all who read the Sou'Wester may derive some real, beneficial pleasure from its pages.

SWA M 'A t g THE, ANNUAL BOARD A crowd of Juniors sat one night, They seemed to be a-thinkin', They rubbed their eyes, they pulled their hair, Each at the others blinkin' H011 dear! said one, what shall we do? The time is very near us When Annual copy must be in, Oh, for a line to cheer us Then each one closed his eyes to think And each one fell to napping, Though in the Annual dummy near Weiie vacant pages gaping Uhr Annual Enarh E'en daylight did not Wake them And when to classes teachers came They had to roughly shake them. To spend the time in such a Way To many will seem wasteful, But to the weary Annual Board 'Twas not the least distasteful. '77 It even proved a boon to them, For as they sat there dreaming A thousand things to do and say To minds. at rest, came teeming. And when they Waked, they wrote them down, For the 1908 Sou'Wester, And thus they Wrote their famousbook And flunked the Whole semester.

I I lhiatnrg nf the Svvninr Gllaaa I Since history deals with the past alone, And shows how men before have gone, Let's use it for a beacon light To guide our own frail craft aright 5 Full many a class since Drury started, Has graduated, then departed. And felt contented and resigned- To leave no epitaph behind. In the year of nineteen hundred four, As historians all agree, A class of fifty Freshmen Was born to Drury C. Of the special mental qualities This class had none in store To make it more proficient Than the ones that came before, But individual attributes, And freaky temperaments, Combined with high-born intellects And visionary bents, ' And from this intermingled mess Of ignorance and lore Came forth a jolly Freshman class In nineteen hundred four. There was Freshman Stewart, Smith and Smythe, Lieuranee, Brashears and'VVright, Brandon and Wallier'. Collier and Sears, Robertson, Turner and VVhite. Then Dicky, the lawyer, and Chandler, the doc, Then Langston and Shelton and Fink- XVell. it had everything from a snipe hunter up To a Darwin's missing link. That Freshman year. without a doubt, Passed off in style sedateg Too many daring deeds were done To ever here relate. At Cedar Gap the records show Great things were said and done, That day beheld before its close A battle fought and wong It raged from morn till dewy eve, The Sophomore host was slain And their mangled reputation VVas abandoned on the plain. No more preposterous things transpired To mark their wanton way, Until next year this class emerged In Sophomore array. Before one week had hardly passed 'Twas easy to decide That the Freshmen and the Sophomores 3 Were going to collide. The college picnic was the time, Each side drew up its crowd, And threats and challenges were made In accents long and loudg At length they mixed and fought it out, And when the day was done No one was able to decide Which side had lost or won. But the Sophomores at length agreed To condescend and say That the clever-headed Freshmen Were the victors in the frayg But the Sophs were ill-contented. As all could plainly see, And longed for a chance to reassert Their superiority. That time came around in a month or two. When the Freshmen took offense At a little joke the Sophomores Got off at their expense. They procured a little donkey To perfect their timely jest. And adorned it with the colors That the Sophomores loved bestg When chapel was in progress They led the donkey down, And all their violent warriors Were gathered close around: The first ones from the chapel Were the Sophomores that day, And everybody stepped aside And gave the right of wayg That the Sophs did honor to their class Is not to be denied. The colors taken off the mule VVere on a Freshman tied, Their victim then was scrutinized With wit and judgment cool, And no one could tell the difference 'Tween the Freshman and the mule. The Sophs no more were called upon Their colors to defend, So they passed on to Juniors With no one to contend, A But their quiet life soon ended, For it wasn't very long T Till the faculty decided That the class was going wrong, Doctor Kirby gave a party And while all within was gay, The refreshments had been making A mysterious get-awayg Well. the Juniors got the credit. And they got suspended, too, And the faculty got Worried As to what they ought to do. Mary P. became distracted. Doctor Kirby with at frown Found he'd kicked up more dissension Than could ever quiet down. A migration was impending, All the Juniors had prepared, But the trustees thought it better That this third year class be spared, Thus the Whole confusion ended, And a lasting truce Was made, And no more erratic actions Marked this arrant escapade. The rest of this eventful year Passed off quite well, we'l1 say. At least no more disturbances Broke out along the way. The Juniors changed to Seniors, And when September came, The President of Drury They found was not the same. The new administration Is doing well, indeed, The President quite recently Is said to have decreed, That unless the Seniors started in To studying pretty soon, Not very many of them VVould graduate in June.

For lo and behold! the one great class of Drury, '09, is now to be dis- cussed, both as to the past and the future. Verily, verily, I say unto you in the fall of 1905. the doors of the college were opened and floods of future wisdom cov- ered the campus of Drury. The members of the class of 709 marched boldly through the vistas of shade trees, along the path which leads to the halls of knowledge, through the open doors, up the short stairway. into the Presidents sanctum and wrote their names down for four years. They were called Freshmen, but unlike the Freshmen of the preceding year they were not of the verdant species. They took everything in sight, including the Sophomore class and the other mule whose name was Maud. Many were the reforms instituted in Drury that year and greatly was the course of study improved by the timely advent of the class of ability. The following year the College was again honored by the coming hack of the class of '09. which had become designated as the Sophomore aggregation. This year marks the only misfortune which the class of '09 has ever met, and this hap- pened not to the class, but to single individuals upon whom great hordes of wild and woolly outlaws suddenly swept one night, held up and took a number of good shoes and soX of which they themselves were sorely in need. It was gratifying afterward to see those degenerates changed. and soaked in the muddy waters of the city water works. The '10 boys were so taken up with the water cure that they tried it by turning the hose on two of their own class sisters who were dishing up the good things at a Sophomore party. Those members of the 1910 bunch who were not accepted into the pales of right living in their Freshman year had their ardor considerably cooled the next year in the running' waters at Kershner's. into the depths of which they were conducted by the boys of '11. Great changes had taken place in the Drury line up to the opening of school in September, 1907, but the one mem- orable fact of it all was that the members of '09. Juniors, were on hand ready to continue their successful career. They have been conspicuous in all the noted events of the year. Their Halloween stunt at McCullagh was one of the best ever given, Realizing that they would have the publishing of the Annual this year. and knowing that this year book would be incomplete without the future prognostications of the Junior members. the class has, at the expenditure of sev- eral hundreds of dollars and a few other minor affairs, se- cured the services of Ab Pasha Shem Nokra Sorab Moham- med Kheran, the famous Oriental seer, who has. we trust, accurately foretold the future of each of the Junior members. Listen, Juniors, and I'll tell you in rhyme, The future career, life and time Of each Junior lad and each Junior lass, Who from the life of Drury will pass Soon into the maddening whirl Of a social life in a social world. As I gaze at the stars in order to read The kind of a life that each one will lead, A glanior of brightness for each one doth fall, And I see written plainly good luck for allf' The future of Baldwin is the first that I note, 'Tis among the best that ever I wrote: Baldwin, the giant, of an electrical turn, Many positions of greatness will spurn In order to take an electrical course In the U. of Cornell, which will prove the source Cf splendid success in the 'lectrical line. In which 'tis seen to the top he will climb. He and Houston will gain much renowng Themselves with electrical laurels will crown. By starting in business with a plant of their own, Inventing new talk without wire or lphone: In this way their plant is destined to grow Till every schoolboy in the country will know 'Of the Houston and Baldwin Electrical Trust, 'Which will keep on growing though others may bust. Walter A. Braves, democratic in mind, A field for his radicalism will find, High in the Socialist party will rise, And with voice and pen will many surprise. And now comes the life of a maiden so coy, That to forecast it here can be only joy, Miss Faith W. Field will become great in art, In which, as a Junior, she made her first start. The name that she bears will not always be Field But just what it will be is not yet revealed. Two others who for the future needn't have any fear Are the Junior twins, Etolia Gibson and Ethel Lanier Miss Gibson, the wife of a senator will be, And lead in VVashington society. Miss Lanier, following kin of that name, In literary work will win much fame. Edna Haseltine, renowned in song, Will sing abroad. and that e'er long, Will sing before the sovereign kings, Where but the best are allowed to sing. Her brother. Sherwin, will be known afar, As one, who hitched to the chemistry star, Is by the elements drawn to the top, Where in making discoveries, he never will stop. A Lamb, in the fold of the Junior Class, Into the realm of mystery will pass, It seems 'twill be his greatest delight, For papers and other- things to write, And though his stuff may not be read, Little he cares, but writes ahead. Cornelia McBride, a friend to all, Will go to the South on a friendly call, There she will meet the man of her choice, Live in plenty and ne'er cease to rejoice. Reeves Miller. interested in geology trips, Takes up the work and soon outstrips The best geologist in the state, And will teach at M. U. at a pretty high rate. Lidmila Nerud will go to the East, Teach German awhile, then marry a priest Whom she has reformed, by her winning ways, From the Catholic faith of former days. Grace Palmer, too, will move away, Marry a lord some future day, But, unlike most of the American girls, Who wed with titled counts and' earls, Grace will live a happy life, Making the lord a model wife. And now methinks I hear a voice. To tell of it herefmakes me rejoice, The wronged will hear it madly raised, The Irish hear themselves appraised, It seems that Paul O'Dea will yet, The wrongs of Ireland upset, And in the place of British reign, Self-government for them regain. Bruce Brown, with military start, Will keep his post with all his heart. Bessie Renshaw, good and true, Will marry a Dr. from Chicago U.: Not a physician of medicine, though, Nor a Dr. of science or art. you know, But a great D. D. whose call will be In a western city, near the sea. Merle Roper will be, says Fate, A writer and critic, in both called great. Ina Clement will come out well, As a faculty member in old Cornell. Of all the great good that expression has done, U Nothing compares with the attainments of one, VVho, as a member of class naught nine, Considered expression exceedingly fine, Adah B-ominger,will keep at work, and though others fail, The head of expression, she 'll land in Yale. Now I come to a star that is wonderfully bright, I see 'tis possessed by Miss Frankie White, . By its brightness, I read that the fates have in store, Honor and fortune and good things galore, For this same Miss Vllhite, who some day shall live In a beautiful home, which to Frankie will give Comfort and happiness throughout her life, Along with a husband who 's proud of his wife. Now that I've read, by my unfailing art, For each Drury Junior, an important part To he played on life 's stage in the oncoming years, You may travel e'er forward without any fears. Before I go forth, a word more I'll say, Wlhich may come handy at some future day. Remember, always. that whatever you make Will depend on the actions that you yourself take. For those who keep striving, success always waits, But advancement is slower than well laden freight Ne 'er get in a hurry as upward you go, Great deeds are accomplished by those who go slow. Don 't grow impatient and jump at the end. But do your work well as life 's ways you wend. Great deeds are always compounded by small, And one poorly done is enough to spoil all. For you I've foretold life 's outlines by stars. It is left for you only to fill in the bars, And if you well do it, ,tis easy to read, There's no way to hinder. you 'll have to succeed. -W. S5 Lamb.

Slowly the day was dawning, a glorious day in September, Light was dispelling the darkness and filling the world with its glory. Over the Ozark hills, the first scarlet streaks of the morn- ing Streamed with a lustrous light and dispersed the grey mists of the midnight, While with a gentle caress they touched the spire of Stone Chapel- Kindled to burnished steel, 'till it glistened and gleamed as a iirebrand. Then with a brilliant effusion the sunlight Hooded the campus. All the world was awakened, the sweet bell chimed from the steeple. Forth from its brazen throat pealed joyous, exuberant welcome, Far and wide it resounded 'till loud rang its echoes in gladnessg It was the opening day of a new school year in old Drury. Students were greeting old friends and everyone seemed to be happy, As they recalled old times or merrily talked of the future. Most important of all was the new Freshman class, which assembled, Coming from near and far to the beautiful campus of Drury. It was the largest class that had ever enrolled in the college, Sixty-two did it number, and soon they were fully estab- lished w Each with an inward resolve to strive at each task and each lesson 'Till for his class should be gained reputation which others might covet. Soon came a test of class strength when they went to the gay college picnic. Nobly they strove for their rights and were not put to shame by the Soph'mores. Thus the first days hurried on, each bringing new joys and new sorrows, Fast lengthened days into weeks and soon it was hazy October. Then an eventful night came when the Seniors and Sophs had a partyg Each Sophomore and Senior was captured and stripped of his pedal attachments! Lo! in Stone Chapel next noon, on a clothesline hung up in the hallway mores and Seniors . -E I 'fl' Was a most wonderful sight, shoes and socks of the Soph- ga y, . . ' 'il,l,' 3 , 'vi' Fhis had the Freshmen accomplished and every one marveled and wondered That prowess so bold should exist in the midst of the grave Drury College. Time passed, it soon was November, the season of mince pies and turkey, Then why should not Freshmen have fun for already the frost claimed the pumpkin. Away to the country they hie, taking with them their Junior class brothers - To feast and to have a good time at the farm home of Marjorie Buffkin. Great was their joy and at last ea.ch wended his happy way homeward. Then in the bright autumn days, the Freshmen were eager for foot ball V Eager to show all their valor, their strength 'gainst the rest of the college. So, when Thanksgiving Day came, all the other classes they challenged. A great and glorious match was contested, with Fresh- men victorious. So great a renown did they win that the Junior boys came and stood by them. H That evening they joyfully went to the great celebration at Fairbanks, Feasted on turkey and pies 'till the bells had proclaimed it was morning. Time hurried on, 'twas December, the Freshmen enjoyed a vacation, Soon they returned to their work with enthusiasm and vigor, For rumors were drifting around that a new gymnasium was coming. An entertainment they'd give and Lella Grace had con- sented To lend all her talent and skill, be the start of that glorious occasion. Magnificent was the success that greeted their dilegent efforts. as as ,dk Chill blew the blasts of the winter, a cloud hovered over the college, Disappearing it bore away one who grew as a beautiful flower, So pure in its loveliness, ever reflecting sweet sunshine and gladness. Each heart became saddened and lonely with loss that could not be recovered, One loved and then lost for awhile but to live again brighter and fairer, 'Neath radiant heavenly light, in Paradise with the angels. 9? it as SB HK: Winter was spent and the springtime came bringing the rains soft and gentle When glorious commencement was over and all of the farewells were spoken Each student went happily homeward, the Freshmen had now become Sophomores. When they returned in the autumn, some classmates, they found, had departed, Tho' one or two new ones had come to take the place of the old friends. Soon were their leaders selected, to guide them through trials and troubles 'Till another year should have passed and they in their turn would be Juniors. 'Twas autumn, again had the students arranged for a grand college picnic. The Sophomores iirmly resolved that they'd conquer the insolent Freshmen So when they arrived at the war grounds and waxed bold, tho' small was their number, Their enemies fiercely they fought and held them in fear- ful subjection. 'Till from the distant hill, their class brothers came to the rescue. Time sped along and the Sophs soon decided to have a class party To cast care and study aside with complete unconcern at Sue Dillard's, So the Seniors they quickly invited with them to be merry ' and happy. The hours sped mirthfully by iilled with merriment, music and laughter And sadly they bade their farewells when the moment had come for departure. Soon louder rumors were heard of a new and splendid gymnasium, So the whole school was aroused, each class strove to outdo the other In raising the funds ,that by autumn the building might be on the campus. And this was the Sophomores' plan, they would give a. series of lectures, Each one set to work with a will so that soon there occur- red the first lecture. When a test of the intellect came, the Sophomores appear- ed most proficient, . For among the class members were chosen of inter-society debaters, Eight who with eloquent words, gained honor and high recognition. When the contestants were chosen to wage debates inter- collegiate, Two of the eight were selected who had demonstrated their power. Happily vanished the weeks, filled each with hard work and keen pleasure, Colder again grew the season, soon autumn had passed into winter. Then came the ice and the snow but the snow, alas! melted too quickly. At last did there come such a storm and the drifts were so deep by the wayside, That the Sophomores iirmly resolved they would certainly go on a sleigh ride. Gleefully jingled the bells and the ether resounded with laughter, As rang on the cold, crisp air, full of merriment gay their clear voices. And returning at last to McCulla.gh, a hot oyster stew did await them. Next a peanut party was held that the Sophomores might have more pleasure. At the home of Earle Craig they made merry and were uninterrupted, except by Some Juniors and Seniors, a Freshman who unbidden entered the dwelling. Gaily the hours sped along 'till a voice of authority 'phoned them That it really was time to go home and then they remem- bered and started- Each vowed it was the best time the class ever had at a party. g ' Time passes, still does the future conceal what the class may accomplish Still sealed in the great book of fate are the unwritten pages awaiting The touch of the hand of Time with a record of deeds unattempted. When Sophomores change into Seniors and school tasks and lessons are finished, When the old chapel bell has ceased ringing, and hushed the birds' songs in the belfry. As the last scarlet flush of the sun sets ablaze the tall spire of Stone Chapel, 'Till it gleams 'gainst the lurid, grey sky ere the twilight has changed into starlight, When quiet descends on the campus, another class will have vanished To wander far out in the world from the threshold of dear Drury College, - Leaving days unforgotten behind them, the days spent in labor together. Cft will their thoughts travel back to the happytimes spent in the college. And the story will ever be told till grandchildren's chil- dren have heard it, Of the mighty and valorous deeds of the 1910 class in old Drury. ' -Mary Kidder, '1O.

A megaphone with an apparently inexhaustible supply of energy behind it had been so informing me with patient persistence for half a June morning. The billiard parlor where I had been having half a dozen games with the boys was, unfortunately, situated in front of an empty building, which was occupied from time to time by moving picture shows, patent medicine fakirs and such like transitory busi- ness enterprises. And now the megaphone, in its plaintive bawl, was again reassuring me as to the safe advent of the Bornean gentleman into our metropolis. Then, Come and see Semanara, the genuine Gipsy Fortune Teller! The Marvel of the Age! the barker concluded, insinuatingly, as if he knew the exact amount of change the cigar clerk had restored from the quar- ter you had handed him for a I5c weed I got up and walked to the open door at the front of the store. Even in the city streets outside the charm of the early summer had wrought a change. The air was soft and warm and the sun was bright. The barker, basking in it, looked comfortably conscious of the disturbance he was creating. Acting on a sudden impulse, I picked up my hat and crossed the street. I had still an idle hour before me and in that time the play bill assured me that Madame Semanara could put me wise to all the important features of the Past, Present and Future. The whitewashed portals of Semanara's sanctum opened to admit me and after passing through various dark and winding passages under the kindly direction and guidance of my own proboscis. I was admitted into her presence. There on a sable throne. arrayed in long black robes. Madame Sema- nara. smart, sweet and sixty, was seated in state. 'fYou wish an audience? inquired the priestess.

Just then the barker inserted his megaphone in at the door and bleated: 'fSeance now ended!

' For a year a band of fellow-members of the old Kappa Tau local frat had worked hard to secure Kappa Alpha, and assisted by Professor Harrison Hale and Attorney John Farrington of this city, they finally landed it. Twelve men had the honor of being charter members, and were the first to ride the goat, when representatives from Missouri, Rolla, Westminster, 'William Jewell, Washington and Arkansas, came down to install the chapter. The fraternity now has enrolled sixteen active, seven associate, and two faculty members. It is the sixth chapter in the state, thus making Kappa Alpha the largest of all fraternities in Missouri, as well as of its beloved Southland. Roscoe, W. Stewart NVallis W. Smith George W.

I I Brurg Athlvtir Aaanriatinn i N The Athletic Association was reorganized last October and is working smoothly under the new plans. The present constitution provides for a governing body or executive committee composed of the President of the Association, the student treasurer, a faculty member, an alumni member, one other member to be selected by the four already named, this person to be a business man of the city who shall be the treasurer of the Association, and two members at large. This committee passes upon all plans and schedules. All money received from any source is paid into the hands of the treas- urer, who pays all bills by check. A complete set of books is carefully kept showing not only receipts and expenditures, but also the receipts and expenses of each game. All sched- ules and games must be approved by the faculty before con- tracts are entered into. The membership fee has been fixed at 50 cents per sem- ester. The Association has paid all old debts since its reorgani- zation and now has about 35100 in the treasury. The Thanks- giving game netted S427, which was more than twice any amount ever taken in at a Drury foot ball game at home The base ball games are paying well, which is very encour- aging. The officers of the Association are: J. A. Bigbee, President. Ralph Wickham, Vice President. Blanch Scott, Secretary. T. C. Wilson, Student Treasurer. Lieutenant J. J. Mayes, Treasurer of Association. , .,. J-'K 1 .. . . , me f I- .av 4 ? 1, aa ... ' A .. 3 -2 fa ia- 5.5 1-- , 'tf 4' ':i.L', -1 . 7. 5-i 'wuunrlf 1:55-X f' ' .

True, it was not a great success from the standpoint of games won, but the score card tells but few of the things a team has accomplished. It does not take into account the spirit of the team, nor the spirit of the student body a.nd the town people, that must be relied upon to support the team. lt fails to con- sider what difficulties a particular team has to meet and overcome. For these reasons we believe that an impartial review of the season will convince even the most pessimistic that the team of '07 was most successful. Gf course we must first look at the team itself. It is the central and there- fore the most important factor. Those who worked with the team or watched it closely were singularly impressed with its earnestness and fighting spirit. From the beginning of the season till its close, the team showed a willingness to work hard. At all times was present the spirit never say die. Even under the most adverse circumstances, there was no lackof the fighting spirit, the ability to play an uphill game. The victory over Vlfashington University was won in the face of almost certain defeat.

We are glad to say that foot ball received a greater measure of student support during the season of '07 than at any pre- vious time, at least as far as our experience goes. In fact the games were so well attended and supported that the faculty committee has decided that more games may be played at home, as the financial difficulty is considerably lessened. However, there is another source of aid in the financial way-the townspeo- ple, It must be admitted that athletics at Drury have not enjoyed the entliusi- astic support of Springfield people. But the fault has not been with the Spring- iield people, but with ourselves. We have not advertised. According to W. J. Bryan, the college that has a good team and does not advertise it, is like the fellow that throws a kiss in the dark towards the object of his affections,-he knows it, but no one else does. Under the direction of Lieutenant Mayesand Manager Smith, foot ball was vigorously and systematically advertised. To say that the result justified this effort would be expressing it very mildly, in- deed. The attendance at the Thanksgiving game was the largest ever present at a Drury athletic contest.

The reflecting medium of the impor- tant events of the great institution of the Southwest has not always cast back its images with the same brightness, but it has always shone in some degree. Some reflections have been severely criticised and others have been praised. However, it should be remembered that the quality of the reflection from a looking glass depends much on the person doing the looking. The past year has been a successfulgone forthe paper. Four pages of reading matter have been added, making forty pages of news, literature and other Drury reflections each month. Twenty-two years old, it is just the right age for College. It has been active in taking part and in trying to help out in all the College affairs of the year. It has gained the recognition of all Drury students and faculty members, and has been the recipient of many letters of praise from students who formerly made the halls of Drury ring with their song. laughter and college spirit. The business managers, Wyatt Brandon. '08. for the first semester, and Charles YV. Dickey, '08. for the second semester, and the managing editor, XValter Lamb, '09, have worked together in harmony for what they considered the best interests of the paper and of the college. With a staff of editors of whom the managing editor speaks in the highest praise. he has been able to put out a paper for Drury which he feels has truly reflected the affairs of the college for the year 1907-'08. The members of the staff are Miss Ethel Lanier, '09, Lowry Doran, '10, Williain Wessling', '10q Belle Shelton. '0Sg Blanche Scott, '10, Lillian Short, '10, and Adah Rominger, '09. On another page of the Annual can be seen the reflective likenesses of the Mirror reiiectors. Some of the distinctive features of this year is publication are also given. ra otcegin ea se I I mittee Knowledge is like ,corng it grows better in cultivated soil. The man who is most ready to tell other people how to do things is not always the quickest to do them himself. Beware of the man with the oily tongue. He is always greasing the way for another to slip up on. The reason that the automobile is called t'The Red Devilfl may be because it gets so many men. All the women who are wearing Merry VVidows this leap year are not necessarily mourning after a husbandg they are mourning for one. Some people 's brightness is like that of the fire flyg it has to have a dark background to be noticed. A wiggle tail sometimes mnddies a whole pool of water: that is nothing: sometimes just a common tale without the wiggle stirs up a whole neighborhood . Wlieia cursing the extremist, we generally forget that there cannot be a golden medium without extremes. The man who wants to get something for nothing is the man who wants to give nothing for something. It sometimes takes the man with the lightest head the longest to 'rind the key hole. The best known man is not always the best man known. The man who acts the hog at a free dinner away from home is generally the fellow who squeals loudest when his wife asks him to furnish a. square meal at home. The Autocrat at the Breakfast Table sat in The House of Seven Gables and reflected deeply In Memoriam. He real- ized that his Paradise was Lost unless he could make a Pil- grim's Progress with the Lady of the Lake to The Crossings, where The Man from Glengary had met Richard Carvel at the Crisis of His First Love. The Doctor advised him to sit. Beside the Bonny Brier Bush and listen to The Vicar of Wake- field tell his Twice Told Tales from Shakespeare. or to climb Blackrock where he could hear Alice of Old Vincennes sing Hiawatha to The Gentleman from Indiana, who had helped the Hoosier School Boy run away from The Hoosier School Master, when Kim was Twenty Thousand Miles Under the Sea looking for the Light That Failed, while Ben Hur was beating The VVandering Jew out of his Bight of 'Way of the Egyptian Princess. There was also The Professor at The Breakfast Table dreaming Over The Teacups. As they sat between Darkness and Daylight, The Faerie Queen came from The Deserted Village and beckoned Our Mutual Friends to join The Bough Riders in The XVinning of the WVest. Twenty Years After the Rare Old Chums had their Paradise Regained and we leave them making a Tour of the Worlcl in Eighty Days.

Dear Editor-Will you please tell me how much sorghum molasses I can get out of an acre of cane 6?-Stickingly yours, Farmer. Farmer-Sir, it all depends on how much of a hand you are at raising cane.

WEATHER REPORT As predicted by Prof. Windjammer from the observatory on top of the Chapel steeple. Everything clear, even to the prospects for a new gymnasium. Seniors Will clear out at the commencement of sum- mer vacationg others will stay clear of the campus until next September. One of Druryis old stars has set, but his light still shines about the College. The rest of the solar system is fixed in its course for many years yet, as the forecast shows. Observer Windjammer can see nothing but brightness ahead. Eclipses impossible. maui zmh mm . . . ' ' CWith Apologies to Florence Morse Kingsleyj 4 HIRTY-ONE today,', soliloquized Miss Alberta Hendricks, looking quickly around to be sure I ap that no one heard her remarks. Oh, dear, all the other girls are married, and are loved by everybody. I am doomed, it seems, to live alone, laughed at as an old maid by all, and loved by none. uHello, Aunt Bertaf' exclaimed Don Mikels, suddenly bursting in upon his aunt's reflections. 4'Must be looking for your 'feller,' the way you've got your hair primpedf' t'Oh, you naughty boy, said his aunt reprovingly, but mildly, you know that I never have beaux. I used to have lots of them, but- Pa says you'd be tickled to death if some man would 'pop the question' to you. What would you do, Aunty? Ma says you7ve got your cap set for that new school teacher. Where do you keep it hid? I wish you would catch the teacher in it, I'd like to have him for my unclef' Oh, Don! Do shut upf' said Miss Hendricks, blushing. 'tAre you going to hear Rev. Appleby, or something like that. lecture tonight at the school house? Ma wants you to go with herf' Can I afford to go? mused the lonely woman. 'LI have to skimp and save so much. It seems that I can't get anything I want. Everything costs more money than I can afford to spend. How inconvenient it is to be poor. I wish I were rich, then people would love me and I would have lots of friends, even though I am small and not very pretty. Believe I will go to hear that lecturef' That night, Miss Hendricks listened attentively to the Rev. Appleby's talk. He said many excellent things, but the part that attracted Miss Hendricks was: Anything you want, you may have, provided you really want it, and strive diligently to procure it. Therels nothing impossible to the persevering. If any of you have failed to gain your greatest desire in life, it is because you have given up too soon. Your wanting was too passive. There is always a way if you only have the will to hunt it. Wonclei- if that is so?'l whispered the entranced woman to her sister. ' No, of course not, replied that practical minded per- son. HI am going to try it, anyway. Here I have been poor and lonely all my life and it has been my own fault. I am going to try a different plan. I can 't be much worse off than I am anyway. Soon after hearing the lecture, Miss Hendricks received her annual income of two hundred dollars. 'LNow,l' said she, HI am going to get some of the things I want and am going to want more and more the things I can 't get just now. I feel sure there will be a way. First, I will get a new carpet inn, and some new furniture for the houseg will shingle, paint and repair the building, and will buy some new clothes. Now, what Miss Hendricks wanted more than anything else, was a husband, but she couldn't buy one with cash. She saw, however, that a few wise purchases along other lines might go a long ways toward winning her one great desire. f'WhyI Vlfhat change has come over the old maid! peo- ple would exclaim as they passed the improved home of the reformer. HShe has always been poor as a church mouse. 'She has surely received a legacy. Vllhen they saw her at church, dressed in fine clothes which were made to fit well, when they met her at all the entertainments, parties, socials and even at the theater. they wondered still more. HIS that Miss Hendricks? Prof. Corey. superintendent of the Whitestown high school, asked one night at the thea- ter. She is quite a beautiful young lady. I thought she was a wrinkled, sallow old maidf' How were affairs at home with the new woman? She got what she wanted and for a time everything moved along smoothly. But. her two hundred dollars were soon gone. and she had forgotten to want flour. meat and other necessary provisions. What was she to do? She would receive no money for almost a year and she would soon be without any- thing to eat. She could wait! That is just what she did. Strange to say, she never lost faith in her want belief. She believed in it so much that one day she wrote an article about it. It was a splendid piece of literary work. Wonder if the -H magazine will publish this if I send itf' she said to herself. Believe I'll send it anyway. She sent the article, never dreaming that it might be worth something. If the editor gave it space in his maga- zine, she would be satisfied. She kept on wanting flour. For two days, she economized by eating only half as much bread as she usually did. In two more days she would have no bread at all, She was sorely puzzled to know what to do. She could visit at her sister's for a few days, but that could not last. What shall I do? she sobbed, as she scraped the last flour from the chest. Oh! What can I do. Was I wrong to believe Rev. Appleby? Letter, Miss,'l called out a boy at the door. 'LSpecial delivery stamp, she said as she took the letter. It must not be for me. Yes, that is my name, plain enough. I'll see what is in it. My goodness, a check for twenty- five dollarsll' A note, accompanying the check contained these words: 4'Your story accepted, find remittance for same enclosed. Can you write another for the April number? A few days later. Prof. Corey was reading the magazine. 4'Want and Persevere, and You Will Obtain caught his eye. HMiss Alberta Hendricks, he read. Let me see-Hendricks-Alber-Phew! that must be that charm- ing old maid. That is an excellent productionj' he said after reading it. Miss Hendricks must be an authorfi The following day Miss Hendricks received a note that was much more acceptable to her than the letter with the money. t'Miss Hendricks: Would like to call on you Sunday afternoon. May I do so? Prof. C. H. Corey. Might he? If he had seen the happy recipient of the note dancing around the room in her joy, he would have needed no words to tell him how welcome a visitor he would be. The Professor called, prompt, as school teachers generally are. The poor old maid who hadnit had a Sunday caller for ten years was a little shy at first. However, her excitement and ecstacy kept her talking. She showed her stock of pho- tographs, called attention to some beautiful paintings and talked well about the best books. She wanted, oh, so much, to be entertaining-and she succeeded. In fact, she suc- ceeded so well that Prof. Corey asked to call again. The Sunday calls soon became daily visits. Friendship ripened into love. The two seemed never so happy as when fessor said something in a low, earnest tone, looking long- ingly at the half-turned, glowing face of Miss Hendricks. It was the magic word. The happy woman threw up her hands. gasped so suddenf' fainted and fell-into the pro- they were together. One warm, balmy, June day, the pro- fessor's arms. W. Ii. T si?

Would Grow Taller. I am very short and chubby and am a great admirer of a young man who is over six feet tall. In strolling through the campus in the evening, I have much difficulty in understand- ing what he is saying, and looking up into his face. It is so hard for us to keep in step, that it takes us nearly an hour to walk from the chapel to McCullagh. In spite of the fact that I am very proficient in expression and open my mouth very wide when I talk, I can hardly make myself heard.

CWith Apologies to Thomas Babingtonj Hark! a-weeping and a-wailing in the glooms of Pearsons Hall! In the laboratory closet lies a knife that's tipped with gall! And the chloroform is ready, for the Prof. decrees that now A pup must be sacrificed to show the Juniors how Their inward apparatus works. u Unconscious of alarms, Sits the puppy in the cloak room, folded in a maiden 's arms. O, brightly shine his starry eyes, serenely wags his tail, As he nestles on the maiden 's breast, while louder sounds the wail. Her wail becomes a chorus, as the sympathetic cry: HO, puppy, sweet puppy, we cannot let you die! So silky is your mottled coat, so graceful are your ears, So frisky are your movements, that you move us all to tears. To kill you were a wicked crime. We must not see you dead. The cruel knife is sharpening in the closet overhead. Who now will ind a ransom? Just a quarter is the fee,- The price of life-the pup ls last hope! What student can there be Who can raise the blessed quarter, who is not deadly broke, Whose resources, by the mid-year time, have not gone up in smoke? , A quarter-just a quarter- two-bits to save the pup! Who comes for rescue and release before the hour is up? Now, up speaks a bouncing maiden-a Sophomore is she- With unaccustomed gravity in eyes more used to glee. Here are varlets who are sneering. They are crying all a-grin, Yet up speaks that chubby maiden and exclaimsz This is a sin! I'll find the quarter somewhere, I will lug the puppy home And give him peaceful harborage, whence he no more shall roam, Nor risk his neck beneath the shades of grim old Pearsons Hall. Then lifting up the shivering pup, she strode beyond them all. So past the gauntlet of their gibes she bore the helpless cur, VVhile some looked glad and some looked sad ,but no one dared demur. A-down the campus mud she marched with ne'er a trace of shame, VVhile the puppy never guessed how near to tragedy he came. So the knife still slumbers grimly in the closet overhead, And the chloroform is ready, but-that puppy is not dead- And still the Freshmen stand in groups upon the campus green And to the wide-mouthed Preps portray this interesting scene, And various tributes still are paid unto the maiden brave Who dared the scientific scorn, a puppy dog to save. -Mary Kidder, '10 ifueap Ever letters , I will 131111 E211 BHP?

Gentle as the spring windis sighingg How the moon shone down upon them As they smiled up to their sweetheartsg How they turned and fled so quickly From the window, from their sweetheartsg How they sped along the brick wall, Stopped a moment in the corner Lest the dean should see them fleeing, How they stumbled over clothes lines, Fell into McCullagh's ash pile, And then vanished into darkness, How their sweethearts stood astounded Peering forth into the darkness For a last glance at their suitors. Saw them fall into the ash pile Turned and wailed with bitter weeping, Oh! you dark and cruel ash pile, Have you swallowed up our lovers? I should answer, I should tell you, That two Freshmen as they studied, Heard them talk in tones so gentle, Gentle as the spring wind's sighing. t'Why not duck them? said one Freshman To her roommate bold and daring.

Then they rushed into a bedroom, Siezed a pitcher from the washstand, Siezed a pitcher full of water. And they turned and poured the water Full upon the noble Seniors. Do not duck us, little Freshmen ! Said the Seniors from the ash pile, From the ash pile on the corner. On the path their eyes were fastened, Leading downward to the river, To the river we call Jordan, And their hearts within them Huttered, Trembled like the leaves above them, Like the oak leaf palpitated. Then they washed their ashy faces Washed their faces in the Jordan. And upon one knee arising, Said one suitor, brave and noble To his comrade by the river, We'll do our wooing in the parlor, Or the Freshmen they will duck us Duck us from an upper window.

I want a fraternity man so that I can Wear his pin all the time. Edith F., Springfield, Mo. lla! Munn Ihinga In Tat H N All recipes which appear from time to time under this head are guaranteed to be strictly first class in every particu- lar, and if followed modestly and morally, they are a pre- ventative against that fatal disease of overeating which bothers so many Drury students. They are all the work of a famous French cook, who has traveled over all the world, and as far Heavenward as Fairbanks hall. Plain Cake-Take a half acre of Kansas prairie soil, stir lightly, sprinkle well with a half hour's shower of pure rain water: let stand in the sun for three weeks without mixing, and you will have real caked plain, or as some people call it, a plain caked. Cracked Ice-This is only possible in the winter time. Take a good sized pond, set it out in the open air when the thermometer falls down about ten degrees below the city hall by moonlight 5 watch carefully and when the top layer is thick enough, put a 200-pound amateur on skates in the middle. Before he reaches the bank he will, in all probability, furnish enough cracked ice to last all summer. Irish Stew-Take all the scraps about the house, except those between the children, or between the old folks, dump into a pot or kettle together, pour on water to suit the taste, salt enough to kill all other tastes: pour in pepper till the water boilsg put in a half bushel of Dublin cork to make a light diet, stir with a. shillalah until the corks pop. Serve rare: the rarer the better. Boarding' House Hash-Take the long, lean, slender neck of a 25-year-old cowg grind your ax, then chop the neck in chunks the size of a walnut, boil for three or four days over a slow fire: pass the pieces around to the boarders and let them chew on the pieces for four consecutive days. By this time the beef will probably be in condition for the hash pot. Cut up three potatoes, mix in all the dry and molded bread about the place: use plenty of water and season with salt and pepper. If the boarders have good teeth the hash will likely disappear in a week or so. College Fracas-Take a bunch of Sophomore swell heads and a like quantity of Freshmen soft heads. Hold up a few strips of colored ribbon between them. They will mix themselves. If you can keep them mixed until a few of the swell heads burst and some of the soft heads mash, the fracas will have served a great purpose. It is a feast of fun for the other classes.

H X A Haratinn in thv Glnuntrg X x It was the day before Christmas. Wfe were both in the city-my brother-in-law, who had ridden in from his country home to spend Christmas at my father's, and I. George was going home that morning, and I, tired of the city, wanted to go home with him to spend a few pleasant days Cin the countryj such as I had read about in story books. But how was I to go? Georgeis horse didn't look able to carry two a distance of twenty miles, and the roads were too bad for a buggy. How- ever, I was not to be beaten by a little thing like that, so I started around among the neighbors to see if I could borrow a saddle. I found one that had evidently seen better days, but I had only to tie on a girth or two, tack several ripped places, manufacture a stirrup and fix a few minor places, to have a saddle of surpassing beauty, if not one made to use. U After saddling an old mare that hadn't scared for the last half century, and 'one which we considered perfectly safe in every particular, we hied away to the Ozark farm, twenty miles distant. ,Aside from a little jolting, now and then, Qabout fourteen times a minutej which, of course, the old mare couldn't help, or I couldn7t either, all went well for a mile or so. Then, all at once, without threat or warning, old Blaze ran up against a small stone which was lying con- veniently handy in the middle of the road and-, well, the old mare and I each picked ourselves out of the wreckage and got up, but the saddle didn 't. There it lay, fitted snugly into a well filled mud hole that had most likely grown there for the very purpose to which it had been put to use. The saddle seemed so well contented, lying there on its back with the stirrup sticking up from the mud bath, that I almost decided to let it stay. But I didn 't. With George is help, I extricated it, tied it on as best I could. and after preparing the slightly muddy seat of the saddle, in as neat a manner as I could, for the reception of my brand new trousers, I led old Blaze up to a projecting fence corner, gracefully mounted and was once again ready for anything that might occur. By being very careful to shy the old mare around all rocks, chunks and other incumbrances in the road, I managed to get at least eight miles from town without further advent- ure. The ninth mile lay along a railroad. On ordinary occa- sions a person could travel that mile and never guess that those two long rows of steel were placed for trains to pass over. But our day was the day of all days. Other people had caught the traveling fever. Trains of all lengths, sizes and descriptions passed, and all seemed due at that mile at the same time. When the first train passed, old Blaze, I suppose, must have been asleep, or her mind was occupied with more impor- tant things, as she did not notice anything but the caboose, and feeling that it was poor policy to scare at the heels of anything, she let it pass without further consideration. But she was ready for the next one. Scarcely had the smoke come into view when she became very nervous. I feared she YW might have an attack of nervous prostration, but she didn 't. As the rumbling, roaring, steaming, puffing, mankiller ap- proached, old Blaze became young again, and forgetting her rheumatism, she danced the devil's dream in as lively a manner as I had ever seen. I know not whether it was from any evil design of the engineer, or whether it was the will of fate, but just as the locomotive came even with us, the whistle blew-not just a common, everyday sort of blow such as one generally hears at crossings and the like, but an ear-splitting, devil-screeching shriek which acted on old Blaze 's nerves worse than galvanic battery acts on a sick man. I couldn't much blame the old jade for what happened. I might have 'acted similarly under like circumstances. Anyway, she seemed inclined to put her head down between her front feet, and to accomplish that feat. she gently raised her hind feet some distance in the air. I started Upward, rather sudden like, but changing my mind and my course about the same time, I came back and landed calmly and nicely astride the saddle horn. Hardly had I taken that position when old Blaze did the same thing over again. I had entirely given up the idea, by that time. of tak- ing an aerial trip, so I grabbed the saddle horn and might have made it all right. but the saddle girth's strong point was breaking in the weakest spot. This it did at a most oppor- tune moment. So, the second time I went up I took the saddle with me. Soon tired of aerial navigation, I descended. but I was not careful enough in selecting a place to alight, so I came down perpendicular to a barb wire fence. The only two trouser legs I had with me, seemingly eager to grasp the opportunity to do something heroic, at once caught the barbed wire in a loving embrace, and- well the trousers were not made of leather. George didn't do a thing but laugh. I couldn't see anything particularly funny, though. With a piece of wire as an awl or needle, a handful of wrapping cord, which George found in his pocket, as thread, and with George acting as a combination between a tailor and a shoemaker, we managed to repair the rents in a highly satisfactory way. George said that it would be impossible for anyone more than seventy-tive feet away to notice that there was anything wrong. So I picked up the saddle and went on my way re- rejoicing, following in the footsteps of old Blaze, who had gone on before. I was very lucky in the little walking exercise which I was taking, as I met only thirteen big wagons Cfilled with womenb, four buggies, nine horsebackers and three young ladies, walking. I gave them all the road I could, and would generously have given them more if the fence had been out of my way. I became intensely interested in the beautiful landscape lying on the other side of the fence, and so I could not see the facial expressions of the people I met. However, I wasnlt deaf: the conversation of each group must have been exceedingly humorous, as I could hear them giggling and snickering all the time they were within hearing distance. George said they were enjoying the scenery: that people in the country were much more apt to appreciate a rare bit of deviation from the natural order of things than were people who had been cooped up all their lives among the artiflcialities of the city. That may have been why I could not admire the peculiarities of the occasion. Finally, I succeeded in catching old Blaze Cjust as we reached the barn lot gate of my brother-in-law's placel. She was as gentle and kindly dispositioned as a lamb, and allowed me to lead her to the watering trough and to the feed stable just as though there had been no misunderstanding between us. No warm, welcome fire or supper awaited our arrival and no smiling wife and six cleanly gowned children ran out to meet us, as George's wife was spending Christmas in the city. However, the dog wagged his tail in a pleased sort of way, and plainly said in his dog language that even a hard- tack Missouri biscuit would taste pretty well just then. I-Ie got the biscuit and lived over it. George and I did the same, but we did have a certain aversion to getting up the next morning. That was rather unusual and we placed the blame on the biscuit. After three days of heartfelt enjoyment wading the red clay mud, which had more stick-to-it-iveness about it than most great men who have been born in log cabinsg rabbit hunting where there were most excellent places for a rabbit to sit, but where one never did sit, and eating Georges cook- ing, or rather the stuff he pretended to cook, I came home. The homecoming wa.s a joyful affair-that is the reaching home was a long looked for pleasure. I decided not to bother about the horse, I'd just walk it and not have the saddle to carry. YVe boxed up the saddle and shipped it to the owner, pay on delivery, as a Christmas trick. He got it all right, but didn't seem to enjoy the joke: said he 'd be blamed apt to lend his things again. I couldn't imagine what made him so grouchy about it. I-Ie really ought to have been thankful to get it back again, I thought. i But about my walk home: George said I would likely catch several rides, and that would help me along. It seems that everybody had business at home that day-all except some horsebackers. I didn't want to ride, anyway, but then, of course. rather than to make a person mad I would have accepted any invitation on that line. Perseverance will win, though, and so I arrived at home at last, just in time to see the folks get up from the supper table. I ate everything that was left. No one can ever know just how much more I would have eaten, if circumstances had permitted. I-Iowever, Provi- dence intervened, and I was saved a doctor bill by the scanty bill of fare. I told everybody I saw what a divinely happy time I had, and all became very envious of the splendid vacation in the country where everything moves along so simply and pleas- antly. I hope they will all tackle the proposition some time. It's a grand experience, but I've had mine. If i It ff? . E K I I I I ,' -4 I -'I V I I Z X f I, -2 ' . , I 76 fl - i f 5146 b f4ff'5Su.

LOWE Emery Condon Lowe was born in Republic County, Kas., Sept. 20, 1880. In 1894 he removed with his parents to Cedar County, Missouri. From the seventh grade to the Freshman Class he was under his father's instruction in the J erico schools and at home. He entered the Freshman Class of Drury College in the fall of 1899, graduating in 1903. During much of this time he was president of his class. He sup- ported himself largely while in college by outside Work: carried a part in the gymnasium, winning the most points in the final athletic contest, played on the foot ball team, did work in the Conservatory of Music, was a prized member in the Oratorical Association g was business manager of the Mirror, was a member of the Scientific Association, and, although one of the youngest members of his class, was awarded the Scientific Honor at graduation. Immediately after graduation from Drury he was Principal of the Dadeville Academy two years. which position he resigned to accept an appointment under the Govern- ment to superintend a district of schools in the Philippine Islands. He sailed July 1, 1905, from San Francisco and was located at Carcar. on the Island of Cebu. The Philippine Education, the official school journal of the islands, in its February issue, 1907, says: Mr, Emery C. Lowe is supervising teacher of Carcar, and ranks among the most energetic and successful in the Philippines. u He died from the effects of appendicitis at Carcar February 29, 1908, In his death, Drury College has lost one of her moswt promising and loyal sons, and his teachers, and classmates, and all who knew him, a dear, faithful fiiiend. i Alumni ri lnmnar 31 Zu mitlgipnlngirn tn 'QTIin1ua5 iiinnh I remember, I remember, The Chapel, stately, grand. Surrounded by the scraggy oaks Of old Missouri brand. . 'Twas here We met for Worship, The men and maidens fair, QWith teachers Wise and otherwisej Came rushing, pair and pair. I remember, I remember, 'Twas a Friday evening fair VVe'd met to pray together YVith the i'Shepard in the chair. There came stealing from the Window Raised on the Windward side An odor not of roses-but Sulphuretted hydrogen! I remember, I remember, The friendships staunch and true Cemented by our walks and talks Of bugs and plants and flowers, Of stones and minerals, too. O, the fun on those excursions! I remember them well. Don 't you? I remember, I remember, The canes and hats and pins We honored Seniors dared support VVhen 'fspring had come againf' And O, the Wise superior air That fitted us so ill. We carried when it pleased us And laid aside at will. I remember, I remember, Commencement came, alas! The day for which we'd worked and shirked Had wished, yet dreaded to pass. Close mates We are no longer, But friends? yes, evermore. Though six are Widely scattered, And one has gone before. Vllhile searching for specimens new, G M I remember, I remember, The goat that Drury owned, That placid, pungent creature, Spreading trouble where e'er he roamed To student, maiden, boy, or teacher, Nor spared he feelings or location, In butting in upon affairs, For butting was his vocation. Did you bid me to remember l93's old college days, Wlien as Freshmen we refrained not To scoff at Sophomores' ways? In the chapel there assembled Once a crowd of people gay, There to listen, with attention, To what the Sophs would say. I remember, I remember, Many things we said and did. It is well oh! later classes, That from you our deeds are hid. It was dark, said Scott, the Sophomore, And his way he surely had. Did the Freshmen turn the light out? If 'twas so. 'twas very sad. I remember, I remember, That dear. old careless time. Many, many things that happened Worild not do to go in rhyme. When we fought those wordy battles That should made us known to fame Now, of that old party spirit Only memory doth remain. I remember, I remember, That in humor we're not dense, For we had our pictures taken Sitting on the college fence- After having had a lecture - On the crimes of Philo's all Oh! the dear, gay. red and yellow! Stirring action you recall. I remember, I remember, How we wore the cap and gown, And made ourselves distinguished In and 'round about the town. For we were first to dignify The custom in our college, And this was as it should be, For we were famed for knowledge. e I remember, I remember, Shall I mention each in turn, That you, oh, gentle reader, May of our greatness learn? No! ,78 may shout and sing Their praises to the skies, But '93'll let others show In what their greatness lies. I remember, I remember, One thing more I've yet to tell. Yes, We were the first to do it, And I'm sure we did it Well, On the last night of Commencement, When we there our voices lent In a rousing cheer for Drury And Dr. George as President. E. I remember, I remember, The place I went to school, Tho' 'tvvas not the present Drury, In Dr. Ingalls' rule. lVIcCullagh hall and Pearsons, too, Were things We dreamed about. The Chapel Wasn't finished then, And so-We did Without. I remember, I remember, A Freshman I became, Philo's and Oratorics both Fought over every name. Salmagundi called the Freshmen, And if they didn 't heed For HallcWe'en's McCullagh's fete, It was no use to plead. I remember, I remember, The Y. C. Gfs were born. They carried canes. black ribbons Wore On every Friday morn. Their collars were both black and high, Their meetings hid with care, For HY. C. G. same time, same place Left no clue unto their lair. I remember, I remember, A little dog called Gyp, He was Professor Howla.nd's pet And he became so flip, The Y. C. Gfs camped on his trail. He never more was found At his accustomed dwelling place, His was a grassy mound. I remember, I remember, On one eventful day Some wedding invitations fine, To everyone did say: Professor Howland wishes you To see his son be wed. UThose Y. C. Gfs the letters sent, Professor Howland said. I remember, I remember, The feeling of regret VVith which I left old Drury's halls And that my eyes were wet. 'Twas with regret that I resigned My place in college life, And started out into the world VVith all its care and strife. Y. I remember, I remember, In the days of long ago, I A place called Drury College Where I once to school did go. Many trees were on the campus, Tall and high the grass did grow Save around the dear Spoonholder, Wliere the girls sat with a beau. C. G. '97 I remember, I remember, Toby, dear, in coat of red, How he dangled, grand and stately, From the bell tower over head. How with solemn march and silent They once laid him with the dead Leaves near the Chapel, Then at Pater's coming fied. I remember, I remember, Gnee the lovely sign that hung From the Chapel's lofty rafters As the sacred hymns were sung. Letters gold. on back of ebon, 'Midst the cobwebs gaily swung Saying that L'Anheuser7s Choicestw the sweetest to the tongue. I remember. I remember, Forty Freshmen. O, how green! And their visit to the Brewery, And the chemic changes seen. How the Temperance Ladies rushing Made for Freshies quite a scene. But the dear Pater and the preachers Formed for us a timely screen. ' - I remember, I remember, How the Freshies gained the right To belong to college glories . By the deeds of HalloWe'en night. The cold, icy vaccinations, The long crawl, the useless fight, I-low blindfolded down the banisters VVe slid so snug and tight. I remember. I remember, 1 Prexy hunting for a ghost. And in early morning hourlets He was sure he'd found a host, As he crept in the office Window Thinking, quite to clear the coast. But then he found 'twas Calland And got nothing but a roast. I remember. I remember, Things I must not tell to you. Points in Hcasesn 'midst our elders That have changed to love knots true. Quiet Walks in shaded by-Ways, Vlfretched flunks, in sequence, too, Yet the happiest days of all days Are in college. Now Adieu. -A n Alumna '02 I remember, I remember, I-low the class of 1904, One morning in Biology lab. Behind the fast-barred door, When the good Professor had gone away And no instructor nigh, We planned a plan to have some fun, And jollity ran high. I remember, I remember, How the cap was passed around, And with the dimes and nickles In which it did abound, We quickly sent to the Aristocrat Two secret envoys, trusty. For pickles, candy. bananas, cheese, Crackers and cookies crusty. No pickled worms for us that day, No star-fish old and tough, But from our desk with goodies heaped We forthwith 'gan to stuff. Our only fear, Prof. Hale would hear Our mirth, and make a raid, But when the hour rang from the tower VVe came forth filled and staid. I remember, I remember, How We did inaugurate The Junior Stunt which now You yearly see at the I-Iallovve'en fete, The faculty in chapel , We took off with many a t'hit, And what fun We had in practicing That little farcical skit. I remember, I remember, That still and silent night When we gave our old friend UD Witmer, The last sad funeral rite, When into the hissing caldron The circling procession threw Their dearly beloved manualsl' To the flames, green, red and blue.
