In arguing, too, the parson owned his skill, For even tho' vanquished, he could ar- gue still. VVe are inclined to think that Mr. Caldwell must have come into this world arguing'-but anyway, he was born in Chester County, on April 22, 1886, to James M. and Janie B. Caldwell.

In the suburbs of Fayetteville, Tenn., its light fell full and fair upon Sidney 1Villiam Dandridge, who on that selfsaine night opened his eyes to this world. Horn under the volatile intinence of the light- hearted, swit't-flying' God of Heavens, the lad set his foot behind the plow, and began to play his role in the destiny assigned him. He was afterwards sent to the Peoples' and Mor- gan School in his hoine town, where he tin- ished his preparatory course, entering' ltlrs- kine as a Sophomore in September, ltltlli. llc has lnaintained his rep ft'or the strennons lil'e which characterized his tirst period ot' ex- istence. ln his Sophomore year he won the lllower nn-dal l'or best orator in the college. and in nnlnerous lesser inidertaltings he has not tailed to win distinction. lle is a loyal aggressive ineniber ot' the l'hilon1athean So- ciety, which honored him with one ot' the de- hator's places on the St'llll-lllllltltll ol' this year. llis popularity has been no more decisively attested than when he was elected lll1lll2lg'l'l' ot' the baseball team in ltltlti, which position he is tilting with the utmost' credit and ability.

Devlin, was lirst aroused, October 19, 1886, in the educational center of Due VVest, by the ringing' of the college bells. He first began to store up knowledge in the D. W. F. C. Kin- dergarten, and later in the Due VVest High School, which awarded him a medal for gener- al excellence. In '01 he began his college ca.- reer as a prep at Erskine, and since that time has made nothing' but A's C95 per cent. average, in his studies. He is connected with the Philomathean Literary Society and Y. M. C. A., and is business manager of both the Erskinian and the Calyx. He is a young man of fine character and devotion to duty, and we not only wisl1, but p1'edict, for him a large measure of success in life. gala! MARGARET ANSLEY FLENNIKEN. Grace is in all her steps, Heaven in her eye, and every gesture dignity and love.

His first medal was for scholarship, won while in the ,graded school and ever since entering college he has been an A man. During his Fresh. and Soph. years he was declaimer at the Semi-annual of the Euphemian Society, of which he is a member. In his Junior year he was elected to till the vacancy of Senior Crator at the Euphemian Semi-annual, and in the same year, distinguished himself in debate at the Euphemian Annual. In his Senior year he was again chosen debater at the Semi-an- nual. He was class president in his Junior year, editor-in-chief of the Erskinian, and an active Y. M. C.

He came to Erskine as a Sophomore in the fall of 1903, joining the Philo. Society. In his chosen society he has performed a credit- able service and held some of her most respon- sible positions. He is an active and leading' member of the Y. M. C. A. ln all his duties he is one of the most conscientious, self-giving members of the class.

Shortly after the smoke of civil battles had rolled away and tl1e roar of cannon and boom of guns had ceased 'sounding in the ears of a universe, the inhabitants of the region round about Fayetteville, Tenn., were startled one night by a marked phenomenon in the phy- sical world. The front of heaven was full of fiery shapes, of burning cressets, the goats ran from the mountains and the herds were strangely clamorous to the frighted iieldsf' An immediate investigation led to the dis- covery that to Samuel and Emma Taylor Mc- Dihl was born that night a son and nature was thus marking his extraordinariness by open dis- tortions. The lad was given the name of Thomas Hemphill. His youth was spent in de- cisive harmony with the natural scenery at his nativity, extenuating the fact that he was not in the roll of common men. His first tutelage was given at the People's and Morgan Training School in his home city, and on January 4, 1904, he entered the Sophomore Class of Erskine. His record here bespeak the greatness that his birth foreshadowed. He joined the Philomathean Society and has not failed to receive his honors here. He has held the office of president, vice president and recording secretary, represented the society at the Semi-annual debate, last year, and won the debater's medal. He is now president of the Y.

Witli thee are silent fame, Forgotten arts Ifllltl wisdom disappeared. To McCormick, South Carolina, is given the honor of being' the birthplace of Ralph Jay Robinson, and September 26, 1886, the time. Nature showed herself in variegated colors when she was fitting' the large-liearted, friv- olous, ingenious Ralph for a career through life. Genius has set her seal upon him, and Fame is calling from her hall in fairyland. ln his preparatorycourse at the McCormick Acad- emy he developed an aptitude for learning' and delving deep in the fount of fiction and history, and in these departments of educa- tion, Erskine can boast of no more thorough student. He is a faithful, active member of the Euphemian Society, in which he has held several positions of responsibility and trust. By a personality which is attractive and good- natured graces that fix themselves on human hearts, Ralph has won his way with ease into the companionship and confidence of all who have ever enjoyed his acquaintance. Yet amid all his propensities toward living' with the an- cient historians and story-tellers, he is at the same time alive to the atheletic features of college-life, and was last year a member of the baseball team. Verily, he is a sui generis, and as was said of Eng'land's king, his virtues are his own, and if he has any vices they must be of thc times.

THE NAUGHTY-SIX CALYX 25 At last my plans we1'e realized and the pleasures ol' a trip to my old class friends loomed up before me in inammoth proportions. With surprising' ease and er-lerity all preparations were made, and, rising' early in the morning, I boarded an out-going' train for the North. My first stop was in Richmond, Ya., where I found .l. ll. Simpson f'1ig'z1g'r-fl in the drug business. A commodious building' on Broad street bore the modest sign- UJ. D. Simpson, Drngg'ist.'l A few days I spent in his hospitable home, presided over by a. noble daughter of the famous old ll. IV. F. t'. The home, however, betrayed a tinge of sadness occasioned by the recent. departure ol' their only daughter who was attending' school at Due WH-st. Bidding' farewell to these l'riends, I went next to VVashington. Here I was met by Hazel Ilharr, who, after completing' a law course in the Columbia University, had settled for the practice of his chosen prot'ession in this city. Wliile here I also met R. L. Jenkins. I found him engaged in the V. S. Survey. He had, like myself, been away from the South and consequently knew very little of our old class. He told me, however, that he had occasionally seen Mason Stevenson, who was an active rail road man. When the seemingly impossible project of The New York to Paris Rail Road was first introduced, he had entered the enterprise with his usual enthusiasm, and when the missing links of the road were finished in 1915, it was he who conducted the first train through from New York to Paris. The world read with amazing' wonder of the initial trip-leaving' the metropolis the train sped Westward to Seattle and thence northward to tl1e Behring' Strait under which a tunnel 38 miles long' had been constructed. Once on the Asiatic continent, the way was clear for Paris, which place was reached in fifteen days after leaving' New York. While here I had missed seeing' still another, R. L. Patrick, who had passed through a few days before on his way to New York to take, in connection with his vacation, a special course in Hebrew. He has for several years been the acceptable pastor of the First A. R. P. Church in Itill'llllllt.L'lll'lH1, Ala. Leaving' IVashing'ton, I turned my face to tl1e west. I landed at last in Memphis, Tennessee. I found that Moffatt Pressly had, like most. other wanderers, settled near the old home at last. I went up to Troy, about forty miles from Memphis. to see him, and found that he had taken his t'ather's place as leading' physician in those parts. His early shyness for the feminine sex had evidently worn off with the study of medicine, for I found l1im not alone. Here also I found Rev. IV. M. McFerrin, the pastor of Troy A. li. IJ. tlhurch. Ile was the same Mae I had known in college, and I found him very pleasantly situated but for one thing: The only trouble between him and the people lay in the l'aet that he had for some time urged the building' of an annex to the parsonage, a thing' which the people were unwilling' to do. From these I learned the where-abonts ol' llalph Robinson. They told me that he had for several years after leaving' college taught in Tennessee and then, with a heavy heart, occasioned by a serious disappointment in a love affair, retired to a quiet little home in the l'oot-hills ot' the l'iedmont section of his native State where he devoted his entire time to writing. llis works on fiction were classed as among the best. He had also recently published a volume ol' poems entitled, Robinsons Love Lyrics. But I must hurry on with my story. On my way to Nashville. I was greeted hy a hustling' little man whom I soon recognized as IVill llandridee. l t'onnd that he was on his way home from a meeting of the International Medical Assoeiation. Ile 26 THE NAUGHTY-SIX CALYX has settled for the practice of his profession in Fayetteville, Tenn., and a day I spent in his home. I found that his Youthful dreams of rain-bow gleams had really come to pass, for by his side and in full sympathy with his work, was none other than his old college girl. I11 company with Dan I drove out to the Female College to visit Sam Rahb. It was a genuine pleasure to shake his hand again and call him Old Lady, a 11a1ne he had not heard for years. His early fondness for college girls had led him to establish a female college where he has labored for years as president. I found that his early views on the social problems were slightly changed, for ttSoirees we1'e a rarity and callers XV61'6 not admitted except ence a month and then only with special permission from the young lady's papa. Associated with him in this work, I found Miss Katherine Flenniken, as teacher of Mathematics and Astronomy. She had always a fondness for Mathematics and was well versed in the laws of Astronomy, and this tendency had led her to reject. her numerous suitors and give her life to this work. She made me acquainted with the where-ahouts of Miss Margaret Flenniken. For two years after leaving college she was a typical t'School Marmf' but she was not long permitted to revel in the quietude of a country school-house, for she was one of the parties to a case of love at first sight and now she lives in tlharleston, S. C., where her husband is a doctor. I was also let into the secret of Miss Bessie Jackson 's passing from a state of single to that of double hlessedness. It came about i11 this way. She taught for a year or so, and tigured in a pretty little romance as follows: IVhile in the full performance of her duties as teacher, she had one day occasion to punish rather severely one of the little girls: Next morning this same little girl's father, who hy the way was a young widower, came with her to the school room to have it out with whom he called, t'That imprudent new teacher. But when he heheld the new teacher in her pretty pink dress, his anger cooled at once. It was a plain case and very evident that this school would soon need a still newer teacher. ln course of time they were duly married, and you may even now, find their happy home at I046 Tenth Avenue, Asheville, N. C. On my way to Columbia, I stopped over in Atlanta, Ga., where I hecame suddenly vexed with a severe tooth-ache. I started up town in search of a dentist, and soon I was confronted hy the sign H-I. It. Devlin, Dentist. I hurried up stairs to assure myself if it was that same Roddy Devlin, whom I hod known. It was, and after dislocating my jaw and wrenching my neck in his frantic attempts to extricate my tooth, we sat down for a long talk of our old college days. In the afternoon we went around to see Kirkpatrick, the director of a large conservatory of music. Kirk had developed his musical talent hy an extended course in Germany. Among his compositions is a new song entitled, I can't' 'forget you, dedicated to his college girl who thought him gone, and married while he was in ttermany. In company with these two friends, I went' that night to the Grand Opera to hear the famous hnmorist lecturer, IV. A. lNlcAulay. 'l'he house was crowded to the limits of comfort. After the exercises were over we stayed to speak to Billy, XYIIOII in college, his tendency seemed toward the ministry, hut judging from his success on the stage, he had evidently not missed his calling very far. After a pleasant trip, I landed late in the afternoon in the city of tiolumhia. S. F. I lere I was entertained hy IV. I . tlaldwell. Italie had not heen idle since I had seen him, for here he has huilt up a tine law practice, and at this time is THE NAUMGLHTY-SIX CALYX 27 Attorney General for the State. He, like many others, started at the bottom and has earned his reputation by hard work. But I met here still another of my class- mates, Martin. If he ever had any tendency toward politics when in college, he had never told a11y one, and naturally I was not a little surprised to see him here. He had, as I found, carried Abbeville County by a large majority on the prohibition ticket, and had for years represented his county in the legislature. To go further into the futuie, it is by no means improbable that he will some day represent his State in the United States Senate. On the train out from t'olumbia, I had as my traveling companion, K. H. Patrick. Killough had evidently displayed his Patrick blood' for I found that he had managed to gather up no small amount of the good things of this world. He is a banker in his native town, and also owns and operates a large farm in connection with his other business. At a little station not far from Charlotte, N. C., two clerical looking men boarded the train, whom I soon recognized as Pearson and Carson. They had been, as they told me, to a meeting of Presbytcry and 11ow were returning to their homes in North Ca1'olina. They each presided over a church in his native State, and were far from being idle. Landing at last i11 the City of Charlotte, N. C., I started up town in search of my old friend Julian Miller. I found that his taste for journalism had led him to strive for fame in that direction, and now he was styled as the Chief Editor of the Charlotte Observer. Two days I spent in his hospitable home in the outskirts of the city. Jute had taken seriously that good old saying, It is not good that man should be alone and soon after leaving college had married a Wife. They are soon to celebrate their silver wedding. Leaving this place, I went next to Gastonia, where I stopped for the day. The leading wholesale hardware house in this thriving little city is styled, The Edgar Long Hardware Co. Tommy was born in Gastonia, has lived all his life in Gastonia, and will no doubt die in that same Gastonia. He is doing well and his prospects are bright. Seeing so many of my classmates made me determine to revisit again the scenes of my schooldaysg so I set out for Due West. Stopping over in Greenville, S. C., between trains, I had a most pleasant chat with Mason Young, who is a druggist in that place. He had always had a good head for chemistry, and I was not very much surprised to ind him in this business. Soon the hour for leaving for Due West came and I was again on my way. A strange feeling came over me when I realized that I was again so near the old place where I had enjoyed so many pleasant days. Here I was to spend a few days with Haddon. He was the only one who had come back to the old place to live. For a number of years he has been Professor of Greek and German in Erskine. Of all the boys, he had surely not missed his calling. But then there were four whom I could not hope to see on this trip. They were McDill, McCain, R. A. Young and Henry Pressly. These had cast their lot in the foreign held among a strange people. McCain and Pressly took tirst a medical course and were engaged as Medical Missionaries in India and Mexico respectively. A large field in Mexico is now Worked by Mcllill. He always took a great interest in this kind of work while in College, and was consequently well prepared for the duties. Young entered the Foreign Y. M. C. A. work and has labored successfully for many years in Calcutta, India. Wliait record has the class of 1906 made? The question answers itself. NVe have a right to be proud of the record. Of the 30 who stood up on June the 5th, 1906. McCain Library Erskine College Due West. SC 29639 28 THE NAUGHTY-SIX CALYX to reeeive their diplomas, there are four preachers, two lawyers, two doctors, one banker, three teachers, one U. S. surveyor, one railroad olticial, two missionaries, two medical missionaries, one politician, one editor, one author, one lecturer, two druggists, one merchant, one musician, one dentist, and two are not, because they have been taken away in marriage. At last my train pulled into lionalds and I realized that my long' and pleasant trip was near an end. I found that the passengers for Due IVest had no longer to ride in a hack, but that after a protracted series of railroad meetings, the railroad had at last been completed. Presently I heard the bell rineging' as the train pulled out for Due IVest', and in my haste to get aboard, I started to run and bumped my head against the head board of the-hed and waked up. I sat up, rubbed my eyes, remem- l79l'9tll that I had eaten 'tsalinon ballsu for supper, heard the second bell ringing and realized that I was late for breakt'ast again.

Remember that in balldom, whether in the land of the pigskin or in baseball fan- dom, there is a freedom of speech, a variety of wo1'd and phrase expression, a novelty of coinage which you will not tind elsewhere.

Of the Seniors, Kirkpatrick, Long, Pressly, H. E. and J. S. M., Stevenson, Miller, Hohinson and Hunter are trying' out for regular positions on the team of 1906. A. brief history of the 'treg'ulars, of those who have seen service, might in- terest, you. Motfat tt. Kirkpatrick, of keystone sack 't'ame, was born tas far as baseballists are concernedj in the spring' of ltttlt, and is still living: He joined the regular col- lege team in his Sophomore year, and was with the teani again last season. A good hitter, a fairly good inhelder, f'Kirk would be a valuable addition to any team. It was in the sinnnier ot' 15305. Kirk was teaching' school away over near the Highland Rini of Middle 'l'ennessee. They don't play much hall in this particular out-of-the-way section of the country. Naturally, therefore, Kirk was considered somewhat ot' a. stan At a hig' country picnic and harhecue, his services as second haseinan tor the ball game ot' the afternoon were retained. They play in pastures over there. Now it so happened that t'Kirk had a new S15 suit of clothes, and that he had lzetore the ganie exchanged this suit for a hasehall uniform, at the same time hanging' his citizen's clothes on a persinnnon hush. After the battle was over, Kirk went to see ahout that new suit tnaturally he was a little proud ot' itl and what do you suppose he saw '? .Xhout two inches of hreeehes leg, dangling' from an old eow's ljaw. 'l'hat' cow had eaten his new pants, containing principally wire nails, one pocket knite, one cork screw, an lngersoll dollar watch, and thave mereyl B letter, unopened, nnreadfsit front his hest, girl. U'l'0IllTlll6H Long, erstwhile captain ol' the ttastonia locals, a youngster who be- lieves in good, clean liasehall, and who helieves in worlqing' hard for the game. hutted into llllllllttlll in the spring' ol' HHH. lly some means, which he himself has not yet' ascertained, he led the college teain in hitting' in the spring' ol' 1905. Six t'eet one inch hy ltitt pounds, 'l'onnnie's greatest tronhle in hasehall is getting' his hreeches long' enough. Several pitchers have died in the attempt to get halls allove his liuees. lt. J. lfolninson, who, it is reported, has heen trying' tor the team since IS--ttl. THE NAUGHTY-SIX CALYX 33 succeeded last year in capturing left field. It might be said here that he is as good as there is. The Hterriblest time Robinson ever had, so he says, was over in YVashington, Ga. It was in the latter part of the game, and the score was 6 to 5, in favor of the opposing team. Things were looking sad for Robinson and his 'Wash- ingtonians, when finally two men got on bases. l'l1 give you a kiss, if youlll bri11g those two men in home, cried a smiling maiden from the lower row of grandstaud seats. Ralph landed on the ball, and sent it hard and heavy for a two-base hit. The two men scored. Now what could the poor boy d0'?', VVhat would you have done? H. E. Pressly, center fielder of two years' standing, red-headed QI beg pardonl sandy-headed, is perhaps the fastest man on his feet that we have. You should see him run. Looks like a. ball-bearing speed machine. R. M. Stevenson made his varsity debut during the Maearthy regimeg playing first base. Steve is a good hitter, and would be a good fielder, but he has that lame arm. Last but not least comes our friend, Mr. J. S. Miller. Jutel' first saw baseball light in his Sophomore year. Consequent to his stage-fright in the Clemson game of that year, he has been ranked among the best of college outfielders. A ball swatted to the left division of the outer garden is sure to be pocketed by Miller. Be careful, Mr. Fly, how you venture near his fielding webg you may have to stay for dinner. e'Q :Dm U We 2-3 32 THE NAUGHTY-SIX CALYX 'U' 1 111115 . ..xx 1 X mm Mr, .,4W11'A C ' V X 1 .'

Universal as the raee ot' man is the feeling' that glows with rapture at the mention of honours aehievetl by the wisrlom or saerifiee of mankinfl. Mention the lrirtlnlay of national treetloni anil in the breasts of thousanwls of thousands you toueh a ehorfl that eehoes in resposeg mention some famous victory of seeptre or sword anal in the bosom ot' every man. savage or eivilizeml, you strike a. harp-string' of reverence. iVe have asseinblewl to-tlay to einnmemorate an event in the history of this institu- tion and in the history of the Literary organizations of South Carolina, equally as fleserving' of our veneration, in one respeet, as any treasured victory of aneient conquest. iVe have assembled to eelebrate the one hunclreclth anniversary of two soeieties that have eontributefl tar more to South Carolina Follege: far more to South t'arolina. ti'olnnionwealth. if you please, than is within the limit ot' our time to relate or within the seope of our wisdom to eoneeive. The nineteenth eentury shall go tlowu in history as remarkable tor its reforma- tions as for its wonilert'ul antl unparalleled aehievements. lvithin the eontines of its years the soeial lite ot' the Anieriean llepublie has reeeivetl a powerfully stimulating' impulse. ln the material worlml, meehanieal power has suhstitutetl itselti tor inuseular elTort anil thereby has eivilization been revolutionized.

And more important still, a Literary Society affords a perfectly healthful and commanding atmosphere in teaching the young' mind the art of living' with his fellowmen. With this, says one, no other knowledge is comparable, Man does well to aspire to the mastery of arguments and ideas, but to know how to advance onc's Self and others through his fellowmen, how to maintain a perfect equanimity amongst the swirl of passion,-that, says he, is life 's task. And so, Mr. President and members of the Literary Societies of this institution, I am here to-day in a representative capacity to participate in this auspicious occasion. From the Philomathean Society of Erskine College I bear most gracious greeting. I convey to you all the good will and congratulations of one who is striving with you and co-operating with you in advancing the universal well-being of mankind. Philomathea rejoices that for one hundred years you have existed as two strong arms of this prosperous institution. She rejoices that for one hundred years you have contributed to the attainment of our common social ideal. And with all the grace of fraternal kindness and fellowship, she bids me hope for you a future, long and peaceful,-bids me hope that you may yet stand for ages as a strong and firm fortress to the State's treasure-house of manhood and nobility,-bids ine hope that through all the coming years your lives may be marked by the visitations and smiles and favors of fortune,-bids me hope that you may continue to send forth men who will be an ornament to mankind, a blessing to your State, and an honor to your God. tAddress delivered by Mr. R. L. Patrick, representing the Euphemian Society at the Centennial Celebration of the Literary Societies of the South Carolina College, Columbia, S. C., February 6, 1906.2 Mr. Chairman, Members of the Euphradian and Clariosophic Societies, Ladies and Gentlemen : It is with pleasure that I appear today as the representative of the Euphemian Society of Erskine College. I come bearing the congratulations of co-laborers, who like you are toiling up the heights to gain a coveted summit,-a summit which is reached only when the well-rounded character has been attained,-a summit which may be so entrenched and fortified as to render it forever impregnable. In the real- ization of this perfect character, in the building of these granite virtues which alone can make a character pure and durable, we recognize no more potent force than the social and intellectual commingling of men with a common purpose.-the pursuit of knowledge and the incorporation of wisdom into the heart of hearts. To you as members of these societies which are now rounding the century mark. I extend the felicitations of the Euphemian Society, and as I extend to you these pledges of our good will, I give utterance to the larger hope that one hundred years from today these halls shall again be filled with scholars gathered from every section to celebrate the second centennial anniversary of your founding. And ever. gentle- men, as the years roll away into the centuries, and the centuries into the ages. 44 THE NAUGHTY-SIX CALYX may your influence live, long after the granite of your walls has crumbled 5 and until all the records of human achievement have been finally closed, may the influ- ence that is engendered in your literary societies never cease to make itself felt upon the upward tread of human hope and human endeavor. It is a great commission that has been given to you, gentlemen. A century filled to the uttermost with achievement, looks down upon you, expecting the new century, of which the opening years are in your hands, to equal and even surpass the services and triumphs of the last hundred years. Right Well have the literary societies of the South Carolina College fulfilled their mission in completing the training that cannot be finished in the class-room, and right well have their sons wrought in the larger affairs of life. A glorious heritage, rich in things accomplished, is yours today, and with this heritage the hope of greater things to come. To refer to the honored great who have gone out f1'om Carolina 's walls would be but to enumerate Carolinians who have played eminent parts in our own State and in every State into which they have gone. But were you to strike from your rolls every name but one-and that the name of the late lamented Prof. R. Means Davis- the college which nurtured his budding genius and sent him forth into the World with ripened intellect, would have a right to life immortal. Other men just as great have been students at this institution, there have been others who have won more of the world's meed of fame, but no other Carolinian ever bore in his life more indisputable evidences of true greatness-that meek and unassuming greatness of heart which outvies fame and honor and 1'iCl16S in holding its place in the human memory. For this one man, were there no others, South Carolina College might well celebrate this centennial anniversary, but I rejoice that the greatness which found expression in the lamented Davis is but the spirit of this College-large and ample temperament which recognizes the enfranchisement of every spirit that moves for enlightenment through the Working out of ideals. As a man genuinely interested in the spread of historic truths and the inculcation of high ideals, Prof. Davis is notable among Southern educators, and as a man especially influential in bringing about more fraternal feeling among our various institutions, both State and denomi- national, he deserves a warm spot in our memory. This occasion might well be thought of as carrying forward this great work of fellowship which he so nobly began. lVe choose to regard it as such, and, to the attainment of higher educational ideals as they affect the human character which we are jointly striving to build, we pledge our earnest and hearty support, hoping in all the years to come to join with you in work that shall make our present age remembered, even when we, the humble workers, have long since passed from the field of action. In all your efforts, therefore, through all time to come, to secure the fulfillment of all your worthy purposes let me assure you, gentlemen, that the Euphe- mian Society of Erskine College, bids you Godspeed. THE SUPREIVIACY OF THE ENGLISH RACE. BY P. P. MCCAIN. lVe rejoice that England and America are at peace. The threatening cloud of fierce animosity caused by the clash of a bloody revolution has vanished. lt has given way, like darkness before dawn, to the glorious sunlight ot' union and per- petual brotherhood. England, the time-llonored mother, and Anieriea, her worthy THE NAUGHTY-SIX CALYX 45 offspring, though separated by the broad expanse of a trackless ocean, are bound tvogether by the ties of a common heredity, a common language, and a common sentiment. They a1'e one race with the same energy, same strength, same beauty. Wfe Americans rejoice in hearing the praises of old England sung, for we share in common the glories of the English race-the race, as we believe, destined to sway the empire of the world. its destiny rests not upon idle hope, but upon the nobility of its character. In its very origin the race reveals its greatness. It is a giant oak whose roots, trunk and branches are the sturdy Anglo-Saxons, and whose leaves and twigs are the polished Normans. Just as the leaves and twigs add beauty to the oak, so the grace, wit, foresight and ingenuity of the Norman blend with the energy, boldness, vigor and stolidity of the Anglo-Saxon and complete the symmetry of this race. It has imbibed the noblest characteristics of both nations, so that in the veins of the English people flows the blood of earth's chosen heroes, and in their hearts are enshrined the principles that make a people great. The secret of its greatness lies in its emphasis upon private life. Its controlling principle is that all men are created free and equal. The commonwealth, not the lords and nobles, is the source of its greatness. Note how great a contrast with the French sentiment, characterized by Louis XIV, when he said: I am the State. English sentiment says that rulers and kings serve their time and die, but the nation never dies, it lives in the hearts of its people. The royal policy of this or that sovereign might seem at any stage of national progress to be the one policy. But underneath the ripples of change, the surface commotions of man's passions and greed, the calm tide of English nationalism rose and fell, obeying higher laws than the edicts of kings or parliamentsf' From Canute to Edward VII, from XVashing- ton to Roosevelt, this tide has been controlled for men and not by men. Such a policy is but the natural outgrowth of the race. Wlithin the breasts of Englishmen has ever raged the love of freedom-freedom from the dominion of any other nation, freedom from the reign of tyrants, freedom to think for them- selves, freedom to worship God. Inspired by this love, they crushed the European powers that threatened to dim the luster of their glory, gave the death blow to feudalism, established a parliament, and dethroned the vagrant tyrants, Richard II., Charles I., and James II. Under its influence the commonwealth threw off the sov- ereignty of the Pope and determined that no Italian priest should tithe or toll in their dominion. How great a credit to the English love of freedom that it was the agent which first jarred the foundation of Catholicism-that monster whose brute control checked for centuries the progress of the world! In defending its liberty the race has manifested a spirit of bravery which holds the world spellbound with wonde1'. English soldiers and seamen face willingly the storming shot and shell of a thousand cannon. They ride without a tremor into the very jaws of death. Wfith what at thrill of admiration we think of the charge of the light brigade! Honor the charge they made, Honor the light brigade, Noble six hundred. Look at Henry V. at Agincourt. NVellington at Vvatcrloo, hV21SlliI1g'l0ll at York- town, Lee at Gettysburg, Hobson at Santiago, and sec in them the lmravt-ry ot' the race. - 46 THE NAUGHTY-SIX CALYX But, thanks to the English spirit, this bravery is not restricted to the battlefield. Even coninion citizens i11 the everyday walks of life display it. W'hat truer bravery ca11 mortals show than that of the E11glisl1n1e11 at the wreck of tl1e Birkenhead? The good ship, crowded with men Hlld women, crashed at sunset upon a hidden rock. H 'Out with those boats, and let us haste awayl' tfried one, 'ere yet yo11 sea the bark devours.' The man thus elanioring was, I scarce need say, No officer of ours. lVe knew our duty better than to care, For such loose babblers, and 111ade no reply, Till our good colonel gave the word, And there formed us i11 line to die. So we made women with their children go, The oa1's ply back again and yet again, Whilst, inch by inch, the drowniiig ship Sallli low, Still under steadfast men. What follows, why recall U? The brave who died, Died without tlinching i11 that bloody surf, They sleep as Well, and, roused from their wild grave, As others under turf. They sleep as well ,and, roused from their wild grave, VVearing their wounds, like stars, shall rise again, Joint hei1's with Christ, because they bled to save His Weak ones 110i in vain. Glory and honor to the brave! The examples of such nien never die, but, like their inemories, i11'C iinmortal. The English race, acting' under the influence of such pre-eminent el1a1'acte1'isties, has ln-iglitened the prospects of the world. It has scaled the cloudy suniniits of achievernentx in governinenti, in science, in art, illltl in literature. Its social and political system is more favorable to material development than illly other system ever devised hy man. lets system of g-overnlnent is at once the wonder and adinira- tion of the civilized world. lts laws, jt'onnded upon the laws of tlod, are the inost just, niost free and most liberal. ln a word, it is inodern Home for g'0Y0l'll1llGllif modern Greece t'or art and cnltnre.

THE CRY FOR FREEDOM. tSenior oration of Mr. E. G. Carson, delivered at the semi-annual celebration of tl1e Philomathean Society, January 26th, 1906.5 The desire for freedom is a principle of universal scope. This principle is heaven- born, antedating history, and it prevails to-day more powerfully than ever before. Every man held in subjection has abiding' in his breast continually this longing' for freedom. A truth revealed to our forefathers by reason of their environment was, that liberty is the common birthright of mang and this they embodied in the opening words of the matchless product of human genius, the American Declaration of Independence: Wife hold these truths to be self-evident:-that all men are created equalg that they are endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rightsg that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Naturally, then, does the voice of protest arise when one is denied the privileges which are one 's divinely appointed right to enjoy. To enjoy liberty untrammeled is the universal desire of man. Man was created for a high and holy purpose, being made a little lower than the angels, crowned with glory and honor. By nature he is a dignified being, by nature he is capable of enjoying' the highest privileges of a free moral being. The cry of freedom is natural again, because of the bond of sympathy which binds humanity together and makes it one. Just as when one member of the human body suffers, every other member suffers in sympathy with the afliicted part: just so does one portion of the great body of humanity respond grandly to the sntferiugs of another. Humanity is linked together in bonds of sympathy. iVhen the tyrant's power becomes gallingr, be this where it may, the oppressed subjects arise determined to end despotic rule. Then oppressed subjects everywhere catch the contagion and arise, as if by magic, in one united effort to throw off the detested yokes of bondagte, The loud, clear, clarion call of freedom sounded in America, and the oppressed of fair France and all Europe heard it. The voice of freedom but recently spoke in Russia, and the opp1'essed of all lands have heard. In Russia, in Hungary. in Finland. and even in the jungles of Africa, the spirit of liberty is awakening'-eawakenina' in response to civilization's rapid advance. And that nation which has shed its best blood to gain its freedom always contains a larger per cent of citizens who are most willing' to sacritice their lives in behalf of another's liberty. Through seven long' years of deadly conliict. the American 48 THE NAUGHTY-SIX CALYX colonists gained their world-famed freedom. It was the noble progeny of these brave me11 that liberated the Cubans, struggling vainly against an obdurant foe. The cry of the oppressed will ever raise its voice and gain the nations' ear. Champions of freedom immortalize themselves in the hearts of a sympathetic race. The cause can never dieg Freedom's fame finds wings in every wind. lVordsworth says of Toussaint L'0'verture, the imprisoned chief of the down-trodden slaves of Hayti: Though fallen thyself never to rise again, Live and take comfort. Thou hast left behind Powers that will work for thee-air, earth, and skies: There 's not a breathing of the common wind That will forget thee. Thou hast great alliesg Thy friends are exultations, agonies, And love, and Manls unconquerable mind. Milton labored incessantly and intently in behalf of English freedom, and he did not pour out his life in vain in Liberty's defensef' nor did he die unlamented, unappreciated, forgotten. No more glowing tribute could be paid any man than this: Milton thou shonldst be living at this hourg England hath need of thee. She is a fen Of stagnant waters: altar, sword, and pen, Fireside, the heroic wealth of hall and bower, Have forfeited their ancient English dower Of inward happiness. YVe are selfish meng Oh! raise us up, return to us again: And give us manners, virtue, freedom, power. Thy soul was like a star, and dwelt apartg Thou hast a voice whose sound was like the sea: Pure as the naked heavens, majestic. free, So didst thou travel on life's common way. In cheerful godliness: and yet thy heart The lowliest duties on herself did lay. The desire for freedom is but the usual promptings of the human heart: it is the soul 's laying claim to something which is justly its own. History proves that this burning love for liberty is a characteristic ot' the human race: it shows by examples without number that God and civilization's mighty tread take the part of the oppressed, proving that their cause is just. Yet subjects ardently desiring freedom have not always realized the happy consummation of their hearts' fondest' wish. 'llhrough a lack of determination on their own part, or held down by a tyrant 's relentless sway. they have been compelled to submit to all kinds of impositions and tortures. But they perish: and along with them perish the nation's hopes. The nation that oppresses her subjects without' mercy is doomed. and will t'all the victim of her own cruelty. Spain. once proud mistress ot' the world, oppressed her subjects: and the new century was ushered in to behold the last receding rays ol' Spanish glory t'ade from the sea. The l'lnglish people, on 4 i v I t I l THE NAUGHTY-SIX CALYX 49 the other hand, strong and daring, have had implanted within them, from the very first, seeds of freedom. As early as the thirteenth century the nobles wrcsted from King John the Great Charter o English liberties, and from that time forth the people have t1'iumpl1ed gloriously in their demands. VVl1G11QVCl' necessity demanded it, they have many times asserted their rights and ended a cruel reign. The people are greater than the king, is the principle that has guided them, and as an assurance that the nation's destiny is in no way linked with that of the sovereign. upon his death the cry is: The king is deadg God save the king! Step by step the people have won their freedom, known to Europe, known to all, until to-day their govern- ment is altogether as democratic as our own. The nation, it is true, has erred in the past, but she has always proved herself a diligent student and protited by unhappy experiences. No better example of this could be found than that England learned from the loss of her American colonies. She then awoke to a clear, true sense of her responsibility, and changed her colonial policy, and to-day the sun never sets on British possessions. The English regard as a priceless legacy their freedom, so dearly bought: and recognize in it the salvation of mankind. They would part with it only with parting' life. It is not to be thought of that the flood of British freedom . . . That this most famous stream in hogs and sands Should perish, and to evil and to good Be lost forever .... lVe must be free or die who 'speaks the tongue That Shakespeare spake, the faith and morals hold WVhieh Milton held. Happy are the people cherishing such lofty ideals: secure are life and property where such conditions exist, in a country where the predominating influence is love, among a people strong in will to strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield. Contrast, if you please. with this happy condition the hard, degraded lot assigned to the unhappy subjects of Russia. She, without a heart that feels for her subjects. without a strong statesman to bear rule in the interests of her people, denies them every right sacred to the human heart. Terrible indeed must be the condition of a people, in this advanced age, deprived of all political power, sinking' lower and lower in their degradation and ruin. No wonder that autocratic power could not stand before the fierce onsets of Japan's brave warriors. In Russia for centuries the people have been denied the fundamentals ot' civilized government-freedom in its broadest form. But like the oppressed Israelites of old. their cries have reached high Heaven: and the Heaven 's eternal King is on their side. The people are deter- mined to be free or die, to overthrow the last vestige of antocracy unless the promised boon is speedily granted them. Their watchword is: Bread to the workmen! Land to the peasants! Liberty to the people! And this cry must inevitably prevail. or the last of the Romanoffs will end his peaceful days wandering on a foreign shore. CAMPUS VIEWS THE NAUGHTY-SIX CALYX 51 DEBATE or LONG. tDebate of Mr. Edgar Long at Semi-Annual Celebration of l'hilomathean So- ciety, January, 1906, Representing Aflirmative of the question, Resolved, That Congress Should Give to the lnter-State Commerce Commission the Power to Regu- late Freight Rates in the United States.j Mr. President, Honorable Judges, Ladies and Gentlemen. Jones pays the freight, but Jones does not always pay the rate which he ought. The first speaker of the evening has presented to you some of the evils of the day connected with our railroad freight rates. He has told you of the evils of unjust discrimination, of preferentials, personal favoritisms, and of other means whereby one man is given undue advantage over another. He has told you how there has been an universal cry for equality, for freedom from abuse, for justice-how there has arisen a demand that into these already plainly evident evils there must be brought the protective influence of legislative regulation. Another form of wrong practice by our railroads to-day, and which has grown so black and so fiendish as to compel especial consideration, is the system of rebates. Simply put, a rebate is nothing more nor less than a restitution made by the rail- roads to the shipper of a part of the original price paid for freight transportation. I would have you note in the beginning that no rebate, under any circumstances whatever, can be justifiable, for by rebates the weak shipper is without cause and wrongly made strong, and the the justly strong shipper is torn away from an honest business to give place to scoundrels and railroad nursed devils. No rebate, then, can be fair, and no case of rebating justified, but you would be surprised to know to what extent this undemocratic procedure has been carried by our railroads. By rebates towns have been wiped out of existence, unbusiness-like rascals have been given the habitation and name of gentlemen, still retaining their rascalityg because of rebates such tinancial gluttons as the Armours, as Rockefeller, have been created- cnemies to the best social, political, industrial and moral interests that man has known. Right here we might say that rebates arise partly from greed, partly from the nature of frenzied competition, and partly from compulsion on the part of the trusts. To such extent has the practice grown that at present there are fourteen t14J indictments in the United States District Court at Kansas City against rebaters, and similar cases have arisen in Chicago, Philadelphia, and other places. To illus- trate, you and I would have to pay 23V2 cents per 100 pounds for the carriage of dressed beef from Omaha to Chicago. Armour pays 16 cents for the same carriage. And this is by no means a fairy tale. It is down in sworn testimony before the Interstate Commerce Commission that such rebates have been paid to Mr. Ogden G. Armour. Even Paul Morton, late of the President 's cabinet and formerly Yice-Presi- dent of the Santa Fe railroad, has testified with a boldness little short of amazing that his compa.ny has given rebates, and that it has even signed contracts to do so. although they knew at the time that such a practice was in open defiance of the law. Mr. C. J. Grammer, traffic manager of the Lake Shore, and Mr. A. C. Bird of the Milwaukee railways, as well a.s Mr. Mitchell of the Michigan Central. have admitted that they have paid rebates and that they have paid them in large amounts and with regularity. 52 THE NAUGHTY-SIX CALYX For these evils then, whereby equality and fairness are destroyed, there should be some remedy. Freight rates, we claim, should be regulated by law, and I propose to show you that the proper power to regulate these rates is the lnterstate Commerce Commission, that this commission, the legality of which has been shown you by my colleague, can most fairly and expeditiously remedy these evils. You have seen the evident untitness of leaving this power of regulation in the hands of the courts, in the hands of the President, of leaving it to Congress as a body, and we wish to make plain to you that it is as equally untit to leave this power in the hands of the railroads. Do you ask me why? They have already proven their inability to man- age the question. Cases are found where they have repeatedly sworn that they have stopped rebating, yet the practice continues with them from day to day. There are at present 2,000 railway companies, and out of this number only one railway has taken an active, aggressive stand against rebating. Mr. A. J. Cassatt, President of the Pennsylvania Railroad, has succeeded in literally wiping out the cursed prac- tice, but, honorable judges, remember, please, that he is one man out of two thou- sand, a poor percent indeed. Nor will one railroad testify against another. Not a single railway company has given help in the prosecution of the cases of the Missouri and Pacitic, Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe railways in the rebate and discrimination charges. They flatly refuse to give the proper evidence against each other,-evidence which, if brought to light, would create a revolution in freight 1'ate circles, evidence which would imprison, expose, and justify. Now let me warn you not to be alarmed if any should seek to pacify you by telling you that the railroads have resolved to obey the law. When, l ask you, have they so resolved U? Only after the penetrating searchlight of popular investigation has been thrown on them, only since their ras- cality has been made a matter of publicity. Listen,-I refer you to the press of the country, both North and South, on this matter. The Savannah News says: ttlt seems as if the railroads have come to the conclusion that rate legislation is sure to be enacted, and as if they are preparing to get the best terms they can. NVatch the railroads, I beg you, they are tricky. The New York Journal of Commerce says: That after tl1e passage of the Elkins Law of February, 1903, rebating sla.cke11ed tor a bit, but soon sprang up again in disguised forms, such as the underbilling of consignments, cut-rate and cut-throat icing and switching charges. The Chicago Tribune warns us that unfortunately 'tliailway agreements are 11ot always lived up to. No, the present behavior of the railroads is not a measure of philanthropy, but just eonnnon decency. I repeat that you cannot leave the power of regulating freight rates to these undutiful, unbonded, unrestrained railroads, and sinee the other suggested plans have been proven to show incompetency to meet the need, l elaim great things for the lnterstate Commerce Commission. But the honorable gentlemen of the other side may claim that it would be plae- ing too great power into the hands of too few men,-a surface argument merely. l would have you note, sirs, that rate-making to-day is controlled by a mere handful of men, nine great kings in rate-making, absolute dictators. There are numerous rate-makers ot' eourse, but htey are subordinates, have no voice in 1'lltG-llllllilllgl And no wonder that there are so many men employed! Rates ehange 274 times per dav, nearly 100,000 tunes per year, a useless and unreasonable state ol 1lll2lll'S. Give the power to regulate freight rates to the lnterstate Commerce tlonuuission. and there need he no more men employed in rate-making' than are employed in iixiugr THE NAUGHTY-SIX CALYX 53 the price of a government postage stamp, or of the lawful passenger rate in the United States. And with reference to delegating too great power to small commis- sions, I refer you to the examples given you by my colleague, Mr. llarrison, where he has shown you that the power to rule in the Pliilippine Islands is given to a special commission, and where the power to legislate in the Federal Territories is given to the Territories themselves. Again, take the Supreme Court of the United States. Consider what a vast amount of power there is embodied in that august assembly. Yet you would not dare accuse the Supreme Court of weakness. 'Who settled the late war between Russia and Japan? Not armies Iinally, but commissions, plenipotentiaries in the true sense of the word, commissions which met at Ports- mouth, N. H., in the year 1905 and there did what force of arms could not do. It is by no means an impossible task for the Interstate Commerce Commission to regulate freight rates. Practically only considerations of wisdom and expedieneyn are needed. Yes, better a fewness of honest men, than a multiplicity of seoundrels, better the Interstate Commerce Commission, sworn and bonded to do its duty, than these great unrestrained, uncontrolled, soulless railroads. Again, my opponents may urge that we are working for governmental control of railways. That 's not the idea. I believe that governmental control of railways would entail untold disaster. Remember, please that the Interstate Commerce Com- mission is to be a physician and not a boss. Its prime purpose is not full control, but the power to cure an evil, when that evil is found. NVe do not advocate the fool-hardy idea of taking railway management out of the hands of experienced railroad men and putting it in the hands of inexperienced government employees. We only want to make the railroads do the right as the right is seen. Railroads are highways for the public, just as much so as the dirt road, and from the stand- point of democracy, in the interest of equality and freedom, the government has the right, and should exercise that right, of seeing that none of its citizens shall be unjustly treated or oppressed. C1'OIH1V6il,S words are: If there be any one that makes many poor to make a few rich, that suits not the commonwealth. I repeat that the Interstate Commerce Commission should have the power to regulate freight rates in the United States, that it is the proper body. Congress thought so when it formerly gave this power to the Commission. It is sometimes denied that Congress meant to invest this power in the Commission. but that it really meant to confer the power is seen from the following facts: 1. The1'e was an agitation in 1887, and the Interstate Commerce Act of that year was enacted in answer to a demand for freight regulation. 2. These words are used in the heading of the bill, With power to supervise and regulate carrying charges on all railroads. 3. A debate in the House between Mr. Edmunds of Vermont and Messrs. Vest of Missouri and Ingalls of Kansas went in favor of the advisabiliiy of freight regulation. 4. The Commission exercised this power of freight rate reg- ulation until 1S97 when it was found that there was seine defect in the wording of the original bill, although its spirit was correct. Listen to the North American Review a moment: For many years, it was thought that the Interstate Cominerce Commission had power to prescribe a. tariff of rates for the future. For ten years or more the decisions of that tribunal were rendered on that theory: and its de- cisions were acquiesced in until the Supreme Court of the I'niied States decided that the language of the statute did not, directly or indirectly, confer the right on the 54 THE NAUGQHTY-SIX CALYX Commission. During these years, the business interests of the country, as Well as the railroad companies, flourished. The relations between the people and the rail- roads were as happy as marriage bells. It was only after it became known that such power was not really granted that the trouble began. And after years of such experience and the abuse of railroad transportation, public interests and the welfare of our country demand that new provisions be made to remedy the existing evils. tile, the atlirmative, then, because of what the Interstate Commerce Com- mission has done, and because of what it can do, propose to restore its vitality on The following grounds: The Interstate Commerce Commission could expedite business. It can, to a certain idegree, be one bu1'eau of supervising and prosecuting machinery. At present, a ship- per's complaint against the railroad goes to the Interstate Commerce Commission, then through three Federal Courts, and finally to the Supreme Court. There he has to institute suit against the railroad, and if others have been wronged, they, sep- arately, have to follow the same proceedings. Thus there is a great waste of time, money and talent, which could be saved, if the matter were allowed to stop with the Interstate Commerce Commission. The Commission, too, is on hand at any and all times. It is created for the business of regulating freight rates, and the unfairly treated small shipper's complaint receives prompt attention. He does not have to undergo the risk of becoming bankrupt while awaiting the decision of a snail-moving court. Furthermore, the Interstate Commerce Commission is a fair tribunal. Its mem- bers are to be in no way connected with railway management, or if they are, are to be men whose honesty and integrity is not to be doubted. There can be no oppor- tunity tor favoritism or for prejudice. The Interstate Commerce Commission is composed of men selected by the President of the United States, confirmed by the Senate tnotice that, pleasej, selected only after careful consideration, selected with reference to their business ability, their honesty, men whose moral character has stood the test, men who can be neither bribed, bought, nor bullied. They are free- thinking and state-serving men who, being non-partisan, can hardly fail to do their sworn duty. They are, moreover, experienced in the manipulation of our commercial interests. They know railroad conditions, because for 19 long years they have made them a special study, and if they are given the power to regulate freight rates, which we sincerely hope will be the case, they will have further opportunity to become versed in the varying needs of freight rate regulation,-they can better cure existing evils. No court or system of courts, no jury under the sun can as fairly regulate ditferences between railroad and shipper as can this Commission. They simply don't know the circumstances. Before closing we wish to establish the fact that the Interstate Commerce Com- mission will be as much a boon to the railroads as to the shippers. Millions upon millions of dollars each year are drained from rail- road treasuries and poured into the pockets ot such unruly monsters as the beef trust and the oil trust. The Commission, with its t'airness, with its wisdom, with its ,justiem-, with its power, could watch dishonest shippers, could watch dishonest railroads, and could thereby establish a wholesome equilibrium. Mr. A. C. Bird, Third Vice-'President of the Chicago, lililwaukee and St. Paul, at the twelfth annual THE NAUGHTY-SIX CALYX 55 convention of railroad commissioners on May 28-29, 1000, at Milwaukee, advised that Congress confer upon the Interstate Commerce Commission the power to regulate freight rates. Yes, it would benefit the railroads as a whole, and this fact, added to the others above, makes the Commission the sought-for panacea. May the day soon come when the humble, honest shipper, the big shipper and the railroad shall receive every one his dues. Let the Interstate Commerce Com- mission have the physican's place 'mid railroad diseases. Give it, and you 'll never be sorry, the power to regulate freight rates in the United States, so that the law may be available to the humblest shipper in the land, that individuals and commu- nities may be treated with universal fairness, that our financial interests, largely controlled by freight transpo1'tation, may be safely guarded by law. This done, the railroads, these modern King Canutes, can no longer command the incoming tide to recede, but must forever give heed to the mightily roll and swell of popular opinion. These, gentlemen, are the facts in the case. I leave the question with you. EDGAR LONG, '06, DEBATE OF CALDWELL. QDebate of Mr. W. F. Caldwell at semi-annual celebration of the Eupeinian Society, February 9th, 1900, representing the negative side of the question. Resolved, That Politics offer a better tield for usefulness than Journalismj Mr. President, Honorable Judges, Ladies and Gentlemen: Journalism offers a better field for usefulness than politics in that politics are largely dependent upon journalism for the dissemination and propagation of its principles. To be successful, a politician must have the aid of journalism, for through this medium he makes known his views, and the principles for which he stands. His views and platforms are pub- lished n the newspapels , and magazines. If it were not for the newspapers. the politician would be practically unknown. We know politics from what we read of them in the papers. Take- for instance such a politician as IV. J. Bryan. The knowl- edge we have of him, and his work is through this channel. If his name and the principles for which he stands had not been published tin the papersl how many of us would ever have heard of him? It was largely through the aid of journalism that he was twice the Democratic nominee for President of the United States. And too, Honorable Judges, no set of politicians last long without the aid of' journalism. Where is the successful politician that is not supported by some journal- ist? And since politicians are so largely dependent upon Journalism, whatever good politics or politicians accomplish is due to it. For withour its aid, politics could not spread its tenets, and hence it could accomplish no good for the simple reason that they would be unknown to the mass of the people. And further, Honorable Judges, journalism is a constant force. A politician 's iniiuence is temporary. He speaks to crowds, and he appeals more to the emotions of men than to their reason. For this reason, therefore as soon as the emotions which the speaker called up have subsided, the impression ranashes. Not so with the journalist. Men sit down in their homes, and in the quiet moments they read the papers. It is when men are in this state that an impression being made. it lasts. The journalist appeals to the good judgment and sober sense of men. And it is because 56 THE NAUGHTY-SIX CALYX of this that the influence which the journalist yields is lasting. And the journalist keeps on speaking his views year after year. A politician speaks only a few times, and then passes on. On the other hand, the journalist speaks day after day, and year after year. Take the movement for the liberation of the slaves. It had only a few followers at first, but one little newspaper, The Liberator, kept on preaching and fighting against slavery until at last the slaves were freed. Thus this constant force of journalism has been a great influence in the world for a long time. Again, Honorable Judges, journalism largely creates public opinion. That is, we get our first impressions of men and events through the newspapers. They are the first to take hold of the subject, and when we read of men and their doctrines, we get the paper's opinion, and can 't help but be infiuenced by it. lVe get all our information, and all tl1e circumstances about the events from the papers. And along with this we get the Editor's opinion. He is thus able to mould public opinion, and what a splendid opportunity for a man! Let me illustrate this: as is well known the Reformers carried South Carolina in 1390, and elected B. R. Tillman Governor largely on the Dispensary issue. Everybody seemed to beleive in the Dispensary. But it had some enemies, and chief among these was N. G. Gonzales. He organized a newspaper called, The State, and started out to fight the Dispensary. At first the circulation was small, and its infiuence limited, but Mr. Gonzales kept fighting the institution, and at last public opinion began to change. And to-day instead of being regarded as a temperance institution public opinion regards the Dispensary as a hotbed of iniquity and corruption. Wllat has caused this change in bublic opinion? It is to The State largely that the change is due. Again, Honorable Judges, journalism is an important factor in education on account of its universal circulation. The newspaper is one of the important factors in the education of the great mass of people. By means of the newspapers. we keep in touch with the rest o fthe world. We learn all about countries and their govern- ments from them. iVe learn almost everything we can theink of from the newspapers. Newspapers educate one in the study of men. lf one engages in the work of journal- ism, he will come in contact with every conditions and class of men. He will meet the highest and the lowest. He will learn from experience that there are all kinds ot' conditions and classes of men in this world. And too, l-Tonorable Judges, journalism is an educational force since its principles are in harmony with the principles that are taught in schools and colleges. lt is exact as science. The cornerstone of the new press is accuracy. The press is fair. lt treats all legitimate news without prejudice. No good newspaper permits itself' to keep out of its columns the names of its enemies merely because they are not friends of the Editor, or because they have done something against him, or his business. A Self-respecting press records the news without prejudice. It safeguards character. Nothing is dearer to man than his good name. A good newspaper never prmits its reporters to write insinuating news of any man, high or low, unless he be a man dangerous to society. and then as .Toe Hawley once said, l'Vheu it is made perfectly elf-al-t,l1:1,t. 51 had man is really bad, a. corrupter of youth, make him drink the hemlock. expel him, punish him, crush him. The newspaper educates also because it presents its news in a characteristic style, it gives its readers the effect ot' pungeney. All readers like individuality in writing, and recognize what is of loose character. just as the baekwoodsmen ol' Virginia recognized at once the slavery speech of Patl'ieli THE NAUGHTY-SIX CALYX 57 Henry when he tried to 'come down to them. Add to this individual and character- istic news composition high minded discussions of themes that touch morals, habits, tastes, pursuits and the commonplace life of the people, presented cpigrznmnatically rather than by the column, and you may be sure that the newspaper is doing' a good educational work in the community. Such a press becomes a school in itself. But by far the greater work of journalism is in upbuilding the social and moral condition of our people. And We can best see this from the condition ot' our country. The politics of our country are more rotten to-day than they ever have been. Votes a1'e openly bounght and sold. Corpotations elect Governors, and control Legislatures. Take such instances as 'tBoss Durham in Philadelphia, Vox ill Cincinnati, Brayton in New Jersey, and scores of other examples. These men control their cities, and they say who is to be Mayor. Until last November Cox con- trolled the Republican party in Ohio. He said who should be Governor, and under his 1'ule graft and corruption held sway. But a campaign for reform headed by the press began and the Democratic candidate, Patterson, was elected over Herrick, the man that Cox supported. In 1900 the City of Pliilaclelpliia and the State of Pennsyl- vania were in control of as unscrupulous a combination of grafters as ever governed a community. The people were despondent. The great daily press of the Pity and State had about given up hope of accomplishing any reform. The minority and nvajority political organizations had formed a combination whereby the minority became a mere commercial asset of the majority. There was gloom in the ranks of all good citizens, ballot box stufling and fraudulent counting at elections were the order of they day. It was openly boasted that whoever opposed the gang in power could not be elected anyway, no matter how large a majority of votes be cast for him. But in one of the Wards of the City was a. small and despised weekly newspaper with a circulation of only 250. This paper began a campaign for reform. It was laughed at, but it boldly announced that if there was and ballot box stufhing done in the next election, it would attempt to land the Boss in jail. The Ross sent the Editor Word that he would prosecute him for libel. The Editor laughed and kept on in his work. And that election was the first clean one in years. At the next session of the Legislature, at U. S. Senator was elected by ten votes openly bought from the minority. Franchises worth millions of dollars were given away to the gang. and the bills rushed through the Legislature were signed at midnight by a willing Cover- nor. This small weekly again took the lead. lt sent a man down to the Capitol and secured some evidence. He got ten members who were honest men to come back to Philadelphia, and in a mass meeting demanded the expulsion of the corrupt member A new reform party was organized, and they carried the city and turned ont the grafters. This small paper in nine months drove from leadership in disgrace the men who sold out the minority. It began the great crusade which ended in the reform ot' the Quaker City. Look how the press elected Jerome in New York over the opposi- tion of the great parties. Tn his address before the New York Press Association. President Slawson read a motto that influenced his early lite, a tit motto For ns all. Said he, Here shall the press the people's rights maintain. Tlnawed by intluence. and nnbribed by gain. Here shall patriot. truth. her glorious precepts draw. Pledged to Liberty, Religion and Law, 58 THE NAUGHTY-SIX CALYX The last two lines well deiine the mission of the press as a social influence. Civilization has placed the pen in the hands of the journalist, and asked him to wield it witl1 the authority Napoleon wielded the sword. It has assigned the leadership of the people to the press. It is the advocate and exponent of free speech. Said one newspaper man, In my six years connection with the profession, I have been impressed with the newspapers, eagerness to oppose and expose wrong. I believe that it is a characteristic of the press generally that society posesses no more jealous District Attorney than the newspaper man conscious of his mission. And usually the newspaper can do what the otlicial cannot do unaided. In a Central New York city recently the Supreme Court Judge officially thanked a daily newspaper for insti- tuting and carrying bll1'Ol'lg'll a crusade against a number of gamblers whom the officials pretended to be unable to reach, but against whom the newspapers brought evidence sufficient to indict and convict. A press pledged to religion, liberty and law must be a courageous p1'ess, but its courage will be rewarded. The people hate a man who is owned If the public believes this of a newspaper, it will be sadly handicapped. Said John Curran, speaking 011 the Liberty of the Press, As an advocate of society, therefore of peace, of domestic liberty and the lasting good of our country, I conjurf' you to guard the liberty of the press, that good sentinel of the State, that grand detector of public imposture. Guard it, because when it sinks, then sinks with it in one common grave, the liberty of the subject, and the security of the government. And now, Honorable Judges, I want to read to you the tributes that some eminent men paid to the Press. And I want to ask my opponents where have such tributes ever been paid to politics? . Bryant said: The press is good or bad, according to the character of those who direct it. It is a mill that grinds all that is put into its hopper. Fill the hopper with poisoned grain, and it will grind it to small meal, but there is death in the bread. James Parton said: t'The newspaper press is the people's university. Half the readers in Cliristcndom read little else. Jefferson said: The basis of our government being the opinion of the people, the very first object .should bc to keep that right, and were it left to me to decide whether .we -should have a government without newspapers or newspapers without government, I should not hesitate a. moment to prefer the latter. Cardinal Gibbons said: The dread of exposure in the public press keeps many a man sticking close to the path of rectitude who would otherwise stray off into the hyways of graft. algal INTERIOI2 EUPIiElVIIA N HALL ..n.,.,-Ju.1.n:44..n.....1..u:.ya...a...n.w,.

Tl1e spirit of true Democracy is the spirit that pervaded the tiny host of Therniopylaeg it is the spirit that beat back the inultitndinous hordes at Maratlioiig it is tl1e spirit that characterized Themistocles at Salaniis, and estab- lished Greek superiority on the sea, it is a spirit, fostered in part by Greek institu- tions, but antedating all human life and eclipsing every purely human feeling. It is a heaven-sent spirit that God released Wl1Ql1 His hand se11t tl1e worlds forth i11to space. It is the spirit that eliaracterizes rule i11 Heaven, where all gradations of 1'21llli are swept away and where service Iinds no explanation save i11 love. It is a spirit that emanates f1'om the Deityg a11d, like all other things tllilt are bor11 of God, it is eternal in its 11at11re. Long before tl1e rock-ribbed earth appeared Zlllfl long before the silvery expanse of sea lay mirror-like upon the bosom of the recumbent world,- while the shapeless mass of ineongruous materials still whirled in hopeless confus- ion,-even then this principle lived, and in tl1e mi11d of God existed the determina- tion that n1a11 should rise nearer the divine image only when 11e realizes this principle and makes it his law. This principle, illltl no other, must be the bed rock on which all safe Hlld sane Q'OV01'llI1lCllt rests. No other principle has ever been, or shall ever be, tl1e criterion to determine the world 's progress or the world's grasp O11 things that inake for civic righteousness. Throughout the ages as the world's events have filed past the great reviewing stand of Heaveng as the tl1nndero11s tramp of the eonq11erer's hosts has kept time with the world's landations, the people's hopes a11d tl1e people's rights have lJQC11 another marching force. This has been 110 ariny with banners, no host led by laurel-crowiied conquerers, their gaily caparisoned steeds ornate with barbaric gold. This has been no force that came to possess tl1e fairest provinces of the earth tlirougli diplomatic treachery. This has been 110 cause that inspired its worshippers witl1 the niadness of song a11d I11Il.tl9 them sl1o11t forth 15021115 of praise as did the 7 ancient Israelites when they brought their ark i11 triumph from 1 l1ilistia. Nog it has rather been a force that has moved i11 silence Zlllfl slowness. As lleinoeraey has asserted itself and at last i11 these latter days ranked itselt' i11 the fore- ground ot the world 's policies, its steps have bl'L'Il slow a11d measured. Only the griin and deterniined tfaees that were set like tlints :igainsti the crushing rule of despotsg only the niute willingness with whieh 111011 have died, as they did die in Holland i11 the days ot' Alva: only the innsic that lived in lIll'll S hearts and told that the world was THE NAUGHTY-SIX CALYX 61 drawing slowly nearer the true and lofty socialistic ideals ot Jesus-only these things have sounded forth, when in the lull of tyranny there was opportunity for such messages to pass in at the ear of men 's souls. Gradual yet real has been the triumph of Degnocratic principles, until now as we stand just past the gateway of a new century, We stand on a new Patmos aml read the glories of a new Apocalypse ot' liberty. No revelation delivered to a rapt and visionary soul, no disclosures born ot' a l'C'fUl'll'lUl'lS trustful natureg no mere hopes conceived of faith in things eternal, has been this development. The emancipation of the world from tyranny's fetters has partaken of the nature of these far-off feelings, but with it all there has been something' so real, so substantial, and so enduring that millions of free and happy households proclaim the birth of an eternal law as surely as did the hosts of Heaven announce a Saviour 's birth on the starlit plains of Judea. The force of Democracy, thus introduced and fostered, is being felt throughout all the nations. lt is unceasing in its work in America. It is upsetting traditions in the British Isles. It is destroying the founda- tions of Absolutism in Russia. It is enlightening fair France. lt is making lese majeste no longer a crime in Germany. It is opening the ears of China to the sounds of 1J1'Og1'8SS. It is awakening the Japanese to the highest enlightenment. lt is knocking at the door of heathen darkness and ushering in the torchbearers of liternal Truth. And yet, grand as has been the triumph of Democracy's forcesg wide as has been the sweep of her surging phalanxesg close and serried as has been her front to the foe, there are forces within the camp of the people's cause that are making for destruction. Forever gone, it seems, is the simplicity of the patriarchs',mthat simplicity which caused Cincinnatus, the greatest of the Romans, to toil in his lields like a common ploughman, and that simplicity which even in the history of our own land actuated our WVashington and our Jeffersons. Forever gone is the old dislike for pomp and the old indifference to gold. The old simplicity has been succeeded by the modern imperialism and desire of aping royalty, till new the nation 's capital resembles a stronghold of monarchy, and the President 's house a monarch 's palace. Not in outward display of pomp and glitter, however, lies the chief danger. Repugnant as that is to tl1e nation 's taste, there is a greater danger confronting our Government and our future. Enemies of the Republic is what Lincoln Stetfens terms those who are debauching municipal governments by the wholesale. aml who. if not arrested, will by and by make attempts upon the purity of the nation itself.- St. Louis, Philadelphia, Minneapolis, Pittsburg,-the tale is everywhere the same.- the dethronement of pristine honesty and purity in governmental attairs and the installation of all that is debased and besotted. These are glimpses of American life chosen at random from the panoramic slide that sets forth our passing history. They do not exaggerate or too highly color what might actually come to pass if certain tendencies are not arrested or suppressed. They but truly foreshadow darker days which might come, when. in the height of absolutism ru11 mad, men should have to surrender as lost the once bright' hope of popular fyovernment. Sad would be the scene if the passing bell should ever toll the knell of dying Democracy. Sad would be the scene if, as the journey's end is neared. the narrow house should yawn for this precious habitant. Sad would he the scene if Hell's inmates should ever be allowed to laugh in ghoulish glee over the triumph 62 THE NAUGHTY-SIX CALYX of thrlr forces. Sad would be the ashen faces of the people from which the light of hope had fled forever. And sad above all picturing would be the heaving of the breast, as with sorrowful faces and tear-dimmed eyes, the nation turned from the grave. Great is the spread of debauchery, all over the hills and valleys of our fair corntry rests its baleful influence. It has stained the nation 's history, it has wrested frim us the possibility the nation had while in its infancy. But let us hope that the country is only diseased and not dead, only temporarily impotent, and not forever Without force and vitality. Faith i11 the oracles of old, faith in the integrity of the American people, faith in the principles for which men have died, nor deemed their acts a sacritice, bids us believe in the resurrection, the resuscitation, and the rejuvena- tion of Democracy. The principle that rose with the foundation of the world must not set until the world shall pass away. A star may be occulted, but seldom in the mystic mechanism of the spheres is one destroyed. The principle of Democracy is hidden in the clouds that hover over it, but behind those black banks still shines undimmed the star of the people 's hope. Democracy can never die. It can come to what is almost dissolution, but the principle is itself immortal. Just a.s the Swiss believe that Tell is not dead, but slnmbers till the clarion of Switzerland ls duty summons him to her need, so will the souls of our great dead return to aid their country. As the country writhes in its struggles for life, there is a renewed determination in the faces of the watchers. The leaders of the past reach forth to the present and tender their aid. Folk in St. Louis, NVeaver in Philadelphia, Clark in Minneapolis, and Guthrie, in Pittsburg, are but tl1e reincarnated souls of the past, burning with love of the people and the desire to perpetuate the people 's cause. Then let us believe, as we stand engaged in this glorious cause, that the past stands with us, that past achievements wrought for civic righteousness are attendant upon us and bespeak for us a future blessing. Let us believe that the hosts of Heaven, concerned always in the cause of right, lachey us unceasingly. Let ns believe that the God that smote the countless hosts of Assyria will also smite the serried hosts of corruption, and stand victor with us in the overthrow of civic vice. In his matchless speech at Gettysburg Lincoln said: lt is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before ns, that from these honored dead we take increacsd devotion to that cause from which they gave the last full measure of devotion, that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain: that this nation under God shall have a new birth of freedom: and that government of the people, by the people, and for the people shall not perish from the earth. Likewise it is for ns, too, to dedicate ourselves to the cause that concerns the nation's welfare. lt is 5t'or us to break down the despotic dominion of the dollar. to crush ont forever the rotten reign of the moneyed element, and lift into perpetuity all just and wholesome government by the people. Then let ns stand tirm in our respective places, tlinching at no onset however severe, shrinking from no duty however exacting. Let ns stand prayerfully Zllltl resolute till the nnsnllied banner THE NAUGHTY-SIX CALYX 63 of a triumphant Democracy is unfurled throughout the world. And in that strife, in which man and God are alike engaged, let each be One who never turned his back, but Inarched breast forward Never dreamed though right were worsted Wl'011g' would triumphg Ever held, we fall to rise, are battled to tight better, sleep to wake. To this end, then, let us live and, if need be, dieg and in the parliament of man, the federation of the world, may America be able to stand forth and say in the language of the great Nebraskan: You may dispute whether I have fought a good fight: you may dispute whether I have finished my course, but you cannot deny I have kept faith. THE HOME, THE FOUNTAIN OF CIVILIZATION tOration of Mr. W. A. McAulay, representing Erskine at the South Carolina Inter- Collegiate Oratorical Contest at Greenwood, April 27th, 1906.5 God setteth the solitary in families, and from that union spring the funda- mental relations of all social life-relations that broaden and constitute an ever- developing current which we call civilization. It is as a stream, a mighty stream, flow- ing through successive ages, bearing on its bosom all that goes to ameliorate the condition of man. The storms and strange winds of destiny sweep over its surface. and sometimes it may seem to be driven backward upon itself in hopeless confusion. Flood-tides of ignorance and barbarism may for a time check the mighty waters in their course. But when the storms have spent their fury and the tides have ebbed. the great stream takes up its burden of humanity and moves onward, because its power is lodged in something higher than social relations, something stronger than social conventions,-in the hearts and homes of the people. To ns especially must this theme appeal, for it reveals the secret of the rise and reign of the American citizen. VVhen four hundred years ago two human- freighted vessels landed on the shores of this New iVorld, the dark, treacherous Spau- iard of the one made the jungles of South America ring with his insatiable cries for gold, while the devout but determined Puritan of the other knelt on Plyanouth Rock and thanked his God for a home and fireside. The gold of the Spaniard has long since wasted awa stained with tl1e blood of its masters: but the home has come Yi down to us, a. legacy rich in a lore and sacred in a tradition that to every true man 's heart is eloquent with gratitude and joy. The element ot' our Freedom and Democracy are so blended here that all history might well roll back its pages and declare: This is your richest heritage. For back of and above all achievements of man, the home stands as the true source of our freedom. The goddess of liberty in liartholdi's statue, lifting aloft the torch of enlightenment is not so much a monument to the thousand grand victories for that freedom, as it is a fitting symbol of that indomitable spirit ot' liberty which draws its every breath in our homes and thus creates a congenial atmosphere for its sturdy growth in a land that never trembled under the despot's tread. Irish mothers taught 64 THE NAUGHTY-SIX CALYX the lads at their knees to love liberty and although their ghosts were doomed to weep over li-eland's tomb, the spirit that led them lives and glows on a thousand new altars in America. The stern old Scot returned at evening from his toil and with the faithful wife and mother gathered the bairns about the ingle's ruddy glow to tell of Bruce and lVallace, and with Burns we know that t'From scenes like these Old Scotia 's grandeur springs. Nor shall we look elsewhere for the source of our own greatness, when we realize that within the home is laid the kingdom of woman-a kingdom whether in cabin or castle-into which we cannot enter without feeling the beauty of a sway for whose beginning we must look back to Eden. But the Queen of the home needs no eulogy from me. Poets kneeling here have sung their sweetest lays, and failed to render an adequate tribute. Orators, since civilization began, have gath- ered all that is rich and grand from the language of song and speech, wreathed it into a garland of gold and placed it on woman's brow, and yet she is a queen un- crowned. It is here in the home that she lives, as it were, between God and man, consecrating with her love and life those ties that were created in Heaven. It is here from that mother-throne she wields a living, breathing, speaking power. And so long as she remains true to this ideal of the Maker her sway is serene, absolute and unquestionable, and around that one word Mother will ever center all that is true and good. But nearer to our own Republic's welfare and more closely connected with our own national life stands the most vital relation of the American home. Nor can we ever forget the view of this supreme relation expressed by our own Henry YV. Grady, as he entered the simple portals of a Southern home. Only a few hours before, with a heart thrilling with pride and reverence, he had looked upon the nation's glory at ltlashington and had seen, as he thought, the center of our national life. But as he stood within that home, that haven of age, that sacred armory of youth, and beheld with emotions yet. stronger the simple virtues nourished there, the memory of the great Capital faded from his mind, its treasures and its splendors were alike forgotten: and the soul of the great orator rose in homage as he exclaimed: Surely here, here in the homes of the people is lodged the ark of the covenant of my country. ' ' Such is the home as you and I know it. Such is the vital and regenerative power it breathes into our national life. Such is its true relation to mankind, state and society. But, though such is the meaning of home to you and me, we must remember that to-night one-'third of the population of our great cities will be crowded into tilthy hovels or tenements, reeking with all that goes to ruin the manners and morals of men. ln New York alone seven hundred thousand people are to-night huddling in dingy, rayless holes, or damp, musty garrets. where squalor, want, drunkenness. rihaldry and uuchastity and despair render home-making impossible. No wonder that the boys from such cold repulsive lairs tail to become plants grown-up in their youth, but rather see the shelter and alluring lights of the bar-room and glainbliug dens. No wonder that girls tiudiug no sheltering veil for their modesty in such loveless and orderless homes, tail to become the polished corner-stones ol' society, and neither tiud nor follow the way to true womanhood, 'llhe greater bane, however, to home-lit'e in our cities is not found in these re- pulsive quarters. tlut on the Vashioualmle streets and avenues among the rich. rest- THE NAUGHTY-SIX CALYX 65 less, roving' ones the1'e is a more tl1an careless disregard for this divinc ordinance. 'lfhc never-ending hurry of a strenuous social and business life has produced an ultra- civilization that is fast destroying the refinements of privacy. The club has robbed the home of its sacred hours of meditation, the opera has taken its music away, and cups of a reckless gayety have been pressed to the lips till the heart has well- nigh forgotten that: To make a happy fireside clime To weans and wife- That's the true pathos and sublime Of human life. ' ' The quiet and rugged simplicity that once moulded our best characters and be- came the incarnation of their fondest associations and memories are no more. The old love that for so long has stood as the crown and completion of human joy seems to have left the home. Charity no longer begins there. And marble-hearted in- gratitude has at last made homes for Old Mothers, a shameful necessity. But from out the cold industrial-developing world there comes a yet more inimical demand upon our home-life-a life that is forever linked with the future happiness of woman. Too often now we find her wearing herself away in the hard tasks of the laboring world. Wie bare our heads in admiration and respect to her who, of neces- sity, sets out from her natural kingdom to take up the fallen reins of any industry. But our hearts are disquieted with fear when we see the reckless desertion of the true ideal. VVithout the best women, our homes will become a myth and shadowg and without the home, manls dream and desire of a fine womanhood can never be realized. VVoman must be there to set the first tone and guide the first flow of daily life, or else our whole civilization must run haphazard and astray. These mistaken ambitions to achieve fame or fortune in the struggle of profess sional or business life may lead some of our women far from the sacred portals of the home: the mad whirl of society pleasures may cause others to forget its vital claimsg but not until the sacred instincts of wifehood and motherhood are spumed and disregarded need we fear the death of America's dearest institution. And it is against the foes which lurk here that we must maintain an unceasingf watch: for that civilization is doomed whose people neglect to guard this citadel of hearts, THE SANCTITY OF THE HO-ME. Higher than the walls of ancient strongholds, deeper than their moats and mines, close about the American home has stood this sacred wall. Destroy every dwelling in the land, and leave it standing. and the homes will rise again as if by magic. But once let it be lowered. and blood cannot tlow fast enough to save the homesg for on them will rest a doom heavier than the burden of Babylon. No wonder then our church and state are alarmed at the reckless growth of the divorce evil. The curse of sixty thousand divorces in one year has struck like the blighting sweep of a sirocco into the very heart of our society. For it means that more than sixty thousand homes have been forever wrecked. It means that more than sixty thousand mock-offerings have been laid on the marriage altar. It means that thousands of young souls have been cnt loose from the shores that should anchor all affections and cast upon an aimless voyage for lite. It means that the 66 THE NAUGHTY-SIX CALYX hearths and tiresidcs, when alone are cradled the morals of civilization, instead of becoming sanctuaries of embowered bliss have been turned into wretched hells of misery. Something must be done. This crime which is eating like a canker worm at our domestic vitals and which is being' fostered and protected by the law, if not stopped, will soon poison and waste away a civilization that centuries alone could build! But though so many abuses of the home life threaten us to-day, we know that the conscience of our people is never appealed to in vain. And from a realization of these evils and of the ll0ll1t',S relation to our well-being, there comes an appeal that we dare not resist. For if the true spirit of this republic is to liveg if social reforms are to prevail: it' t'hristianity, in all its sacred purity, is to continue on to our children 's children. even to the latest generation of meng we must hold them sacred and inviolable in our families and link them securely with the sanctity of our homes. Yea, the unity and pcrpetuity of the family tie, in all its purity and strength, is the last and olny safeguard to national perpetuity, peace, and honor. Let us then heed the call that comes to us from the mute appeal of forsaken firesides. Let us hear the warning cry that rings far out amid the wild Babel of society's maze-Back to your iircsides and altars. Back to that shrine of youth a11d protect it. Back, if need be, to the old home life and let it live in your affections again. Let it live, the bed-rock and fortress of a heart-wounded and bleeding society. Let it live, the unit of all civilization. Let it live, for to the great American heart tilled with love of liberty it is far dearer than material wealth and its sancity than ou1' boasted freedom. Let it live, and if nights of gloom should come, as come they will, aye, if the angel of death, we shall not over the lintels and side-posts of sprinkle, if necessary, the blood towards this altar of our holiest the God of nations should once more send forth fear but rather await the coming' dawn, for high every threshold the vestal virgins of its love will of a great people's sacrifice and leading woman feeling, will reveal the divine in her, and forever currents which shall swell our civilization into one mighty stream to make glad the city of our God. fn 0 X oy sffwtoicg 'DDQWW V' YQ' 63' ' Q, ,,,-f'::'.f I '-iii H I, , 9 .i eeop y i' . , M y i V: ' A' 7 .-'. , is 41 y . 52 . INTERIOR 1'li I LOBIAATIIIAINT IIALIJ 68 THE NAUGHTY-SIX CALYX FROM THE VALLEY OF THE SHADOW. BY RALPH J. ROBINSON. How it was that I came to be in the little village of Golden Hope, a typical western mining town situated on the very outskirts of civilization, is of interest to no one-that is, with the possible exception of myself. Yet to allay any curiosity one may have, suttice it to say that while I hold a firm conviction that I was designed for a great painter, Nature in the shape of bills to a denomination that made my eyes bulge, received from a railway system which ordered my views by the dozen, had transformed me into a producer of landscape scenes. A common vocation, surely, yet I could understand their checks and they were pleased with my pictures. So, on the lookout for the odd and picturesque, I had traveled out into this wild mountainous region. In a little village nestled among the foothills of the Rockies Fred Ashton had discovered meg and bearing down with resistless force, had rushed me away up the mountains to Golden Hope, i11 the mines of which place he had an interest. I was surprised and much delighted to lind that his old-time power over me was still there. He could always in the old 'varsity days make me do what he liked. He was so handsome and so reckless, brilliant in his class work, and the prince of ball players. And thus it was that I found myself, two days later, walking'arm in arm with him down the one street of the village, toward its only place of attraction-the saloon. On first entering I could make out nothing distinctly because of the clouds of tobacco smoke with which the room was filled. Gradually, however, my eyes grew accustomed to their surroundings and the objects stood forth clearly. The scene was quite strange to me and wild beyond description. The room was lilled with men engaged in drinking and card playing. At one end was the bar, while scattered around without order were the card tables. Most of the men were great, strong, bearded fellows, clad in an outlandish fashion, and all more 01' less drunk. I felt none too comfortable, for this sort of thing was new to me, but I admired the cool assurance with which Ashton made his way through the crowd to a table in the far corner of the 1'oom, f1'om which we were able, unmolested, to ob- serve the flow of life around us. One bearded man who was playing at a. nearby table, and with excellent results, rose unsteadily, staggered to the bar, called for whiskey, and invited all present to drink at his expense. It was strange and, under diii'erent circumstances, would have been amusing to notice how quickly the tables were emptied. That's 'Tog-o,' Ashton explained. Fine miner and an excellent chap. His great fault is whiskey. One drop of that and he seelns to go mad. But that is, as you will soon notice, a common failing. Lookin he interrupted suddenly. I glanced in the direction his linger pointed and noticed a person, who from his general appearance seemed to be of inore refinement than those around him, raise a glass to his lips. 'But before he could drink Togo was at his side, and had dashed the glass away. It 'tell shivering into a thousand fragments. I turned to Ashton for an explanation. A tear stood in his eye. The saddest ease I' ever knew, he explained. That is Arnold, a highly educated young lllllll ol' pronounced ability, or rather he used to be. His folks are ol' some distinction in the land THE NAUGHTY-SIX CALYX 69 out East, I believe. When he came here as general overseer he had not an evil habit to his name. That is easily believed by any one who knows his wit'e. Why, she is an angel! he added enthusiastically. The miners adore her, worship the very ground upon which she and her baby walk. You who know nothing ot' the lite here cannot understand the hold she has upon them. They see only the lower grades, understand only the coarser traits of humanity. The few women here are the devi1's most potent workmen. They sell their souls for the shining metal. When they regard such things as women, eau you wonder they consider her an angel! and that is her husband! he added pointing toward Arnold, who was in the at-t ol tossing of a glass he had ordered for himself. '4But what of him, I urged, for plainly he had lost sight of the main story. Oh, he fell under the curse of drink soon after he came, lost his position, sunk lower, and has become what you see, and that too in spite ot' all his wit'e's tears and pleadings. When the baby came it seemed to sober him down. Ile pulled himself together and we all hoped for a change. But the spell was soon broken. Drink proved stronger than love. Yet, he added impressively, not a miner has helped him down. You have seen an illustration of that tonight. Every evening she comes and leads him home. This tale had affected me strongly, more strongly indeed than I wished to confess, so to change the subject, I enquired as to the identity of a boy tfor he was nothing morej with a handsome face and intelligent look, who was leaning back in a chair, almost overcome by intoxication. Oh, that is another of the same category. Curtis is his name. Ile was edu- cated at Yale, disgraced himself afterward, and linally drifted out here. Seems lo have no backbone. At this point our conversation was interrupted by loud words and confusion from the other end of the room. A tight seemed in progress. I was startled, and thinking of my own safety looked around for some means of exit should such a course become advisable. But Ashton only smiled: Au every night occurrence. he remarked unconeernedly. Une of the fighters, a big bulking fellow, held a glass bottle suspended. prepara- tory to striking. Yet he did not strike, he seemed turned into a pillar ot' stone. his eyes only alive. They were staring toward the doorway. l turned hastily and saw a Woman standing there, her face covered with a veil. Some one brushed by my chair and made for the side entranee. lt was the Yale graduate. He eould hardly stagger. I looked around. The room was empty. The miners have hearts, Ashton whispered in my ear. They cannot look upon her shame. Only Arnold was left. Beside him stood his wit'e, Mrs. Arnold. Ashton and I stepped forwa1'd and offered our services. Never shall I forget the ehoking voier with which she thanked us. So we helped him out. she following. As we passed down the main street of the town an object lying in a gutter attracted my attention. On a nearer approach I saw that it was Curtis. dead drunk. She saw it too: for as we passed on she stopped, bent over the prostrate tigure and covered his t'aee with her handkerchief. II. The next morning, and for several days afterward, I was hnsy with my peneil. 70 THE NAUGHTY-SIX CALYX The landscape scenes flourished here in unsurpassed loveliness and in great abun- dance. I soon found the hotel unsuited to my work. I desired more quiet lodgings. On broachiug the subject to Ashton he advised that I apply at the home of M1's. Arnold for board. My pleasure was extreme when she placed a room at my dis- posal, for she had made an impression upon me at our tirst meeting and I wished to know more of l161'. V It was several mornings afterward as I sat in my room, which was next hers, dreaming of life in general and especially of that form of life which existed in Golden Hope. that n tap sounded on her door. Come in, she called out cheerily. The door opened. 'tMr. Curtis! she exclaimed with just a touch of surprise in her voice, HI am glad you have called. Have a seat. Mis, Arnold, he began impulsively, as if wanting' courage to trust himself to delay for fear of a failing resolution, I have called to return to you your prop- erty this lzandkeicliief. It is unnecessary to speak of the manner in which it came into my possession. I wish to thank you, however, for your kindness, and-and to ask if you ieally saw good, even a spark of worth, in a drunken brute lying' in a gutter? He paused, his voice almost failing. She took advanta,g'e of this to reply: Mr, Curtis, in His sight your soul is as valuable as that of my baby's or of mine. True, you may he wandering in those paths of life you ought to shung yet by looking deeper one rarely fails to recognize some positive good, even in the worst of natures. Tell me your story, she begged in a voice breathing with sympathy, and let us reason together. lt is not reason but will I lack, he replied, seemingly warmed by her interest. The story he told is one that is familiar to all because of much repetition. He had been raised in a tlhristian home and carefully trained by Christian parents. Naturally incllned to good, he did evil. At college his associates had been among those of the fast set, aml from that time on his descent was rapid. He was one who had failed in life, not through vice, but weakness. A fatal incompe- tence and an incapacity for tixed aim and deliberate etfort had brought him at last to his present condition. Self-contempt eats his soul, but he submits to his environ- ment. Ilis duty is plain, but he cannot do it-he is without determination, he lacks faith. His tinal confession, wrung from the depths of his soul, I can never forget. I am broken erockery. l am a burst drum: the whole ot' my life has been turned to watery ,l, have nothing left that I believe in except my living horror of myself. Hut your father and your mother-does not the thought ot' them lend you st renpfth 't My home holds everything that is dear to me. Between me and that home, between me and everything' that is good and beautiful and honorable stands whiskey. Yet I :nn what you see. There was a pause, then Mrs. Arnold put the question softly: Did you ever ask llim for aid, pray to llim for help? I-I dared not ol't'end ttod with my presence. l am too far gone, loo low to appear bel'ore llim! 'The Son ot' hlan is come to seek aml to save that which is lost' and 'him that cometh unto me l will in no wise cast out, she repeated. Hliut you don't know, l- x L THE NAUGHTY-SIX CALYX 71 Tell Him, 11ot II10. IJon't be afraid to trust him, she pleaded. Curtis looked at her, his face quivering, and said in a husky voice: t'l'll t1'y Him. This is my last hope. lf it fail, then all is lost. Thank you for your interest. Good day. And he hastily left the room. III. It has been said that no one can exert a more benign influence than a good woman, and conversely that a bad woman is the devil's ehiet' workman. Needless to say, Mrs. Arnold belonged to the first mentioned class. She was one whom to meet was a privilege, and to know, as I came to know her during my long stay tlierc. was a p1'ecious gift from God. In person she was beautiful. Her face, as l soon found, was the index to her character. It was a clean-cut, strong face, one rarely sees on a woman. The eyes were good gray eyes that looked straight ont at you. Iler voice was sweet and soft and lirm. Vlhen she sang her tones were low and thrill- ing, and had a way of getting into the heart and making one think his saddest and tenderest thoughts. . . Yet beautiful as she was without, she was all glorious within. Her character was a source of never-ending wonder to me. Most women in such a position as she was in would have been cast down, passed away the time in sorrow and lament- ing. I believe she deliberately set herself to achieve what has been called the great task of happiness. She will sing no miserere, because, as she says. it is the product of an atheist. She is touched with a stoic courage and a resolution to see good in everything. She had a high conception of the elementary grandeur in human life, of the saving virtue of manliness. The voice of hope is never wanting. Her husband she regards as the noblest of men, who is waging incessant warfare against the devil. 'tHe loves me and the baby, she told as a settler of all argu- ment, In religion she had the faith of a Scot, Her convictions were profound and serious and she carried them in her very bone and marrow. Once I heard her break forth into a praise of God's grace. There is nothing in the world. she asserted, 'tbut His grace. VW: Walk upon it: we breathe itg we live and die by it. It makes the nails and axles of the universe. Her imagination and her words were all impressive because of the subtle ele- ment which covered them. Never shall I forget her noble prayer which expressed so much of her own valiant and hopeful spirit: Help us with the grace of cour- age that we be none of us cast down when we sit lamenting amid the ruins of our happiness or- our integrity: touch us with the fire from the altar that we may be up and doing to rebuild our city. She possessed in a rare degree the genius to be loved, which is after all the highest form of genius. This power she used for the good of those around her. An altogether noble and lovable character was hers, and I myself am much indebted to her for it to this day. It was fully a month after the memorable visit of Curtis to Mrs. Arnold that I opened the door one evening and found him sitting before the window playing' with the baby. She has stepped out for a few 1nonients. he explained with pride, and left me in charge of the baby. There was no need to question biin concerning his manly tight. I thought. as I looked into his countenance. lt plainly showed that he had been doing wonders. Not only had he ceased troin drinking. but he had been elected to the office of town marshal by his admiring Yellow citizens. who, if they valued nothing else, placed a proper price on courage. 72 THE NAUGHTY-SIX CALYX He was silent a moment, and then added: How it is that he can drink and kiss this baby is beyond me. Then I did a deed for which I have always been proud. I took his hand in mine and congratulated him upon his manly struggle. His face flushed and he was embarrassed. IVhen he noted my genuine look of sympathy, however, he warmed tt little. ' HI tind it very hard, he returned simply. Only her interest and the baby here keeps me above water. It seems I have so little to cling to. But I tind it impossible to look into her eyes and doubt. Then, too, my new position and its requirements help me. I hope that this continual instancy of toil which has hitherto been lacking in my misdirected existence will enable me to recover my hold upon life. I strive more t'or her sake than for my own. She sa.w good in a drunken brute lying in a gutter. IV. The days slowly lengthened into weeks and the Weeks into months, and I still lingered in Golden Hope. There were several reasons for this. In the first place it was a painter 's paradise. It has been my privilege to see many lovely landscapes, many plains and valleys and hills which God has painted with His own divine love ef beautyg yet never have I seen more variety or more beautiful scenes than here. In the morning at sunrise in the mountains lying off to the IVest, each barren crag beams like a star, when the pine forest on the ridge is pale and blue a11d when the network of interblended lines is woven faint and tleecy against the dark ground of the half awakened sky. At noon the mountains lie enchanted under the wan ot sunlight like the princess in Eltland. No sound, no wind, no motiong silent they rest under the falling light retiecting the sky above them. At sunset they seem to be the division line between the world of day and the wo1'ld of night. 'Deep shadow is flooding in from the East, brilliant light is in the West, and between them run the dark mountain barrier. Nature, to my mind, is the great proof of God's existence. Then. too the men and life of the town ossessed a. strange fascination for me. 7 1 So in luxuriant ease I lingered on, growing more familiar with the life of those around me, and unconsciously growing in grace. And what a life it was! All day long the men toiled in the ground like moles, and in the evening spent or lost their money and their souls at the devil 's booth. Some had mothers, wives and children waiting for them in a tar-off land. These struggled desperately tor the light ot a more perfect manhood, without which they scorned to return. llut the monotony was too strong, the environment too binding. There in the devil 's camp ground a. man 's lust was his only law and from sheer mon- otony he must take himself to the excitement of the place-that offered by the saloon. It was asking much of one to keep straight and clean in a place like this. As to the power Mrs. Arnold and her baby yielded over them, well, at first I eould not understand it. lint when I understood them better I could see. They had lived so long in the mountains that they had forgotten what a baby looked like: to them who had had experience ot' humanity only in its roughest. toulest form. this little mite. sweet. and clean, was like an angel l'resh from heaven. the one link in all that blaek camp that bound them to what was purest and best in their past. THE NAUGHTY-SIX CALYX 73 V. It was perhaps a month afterward when the tragedy I am about to relate occurred. Ashton and I, as was our custom, had gone to the saloon to watch the tlow ol' lit'e there. Affairs were likely to be lively that night, Ashton told ine, for it was pay day with the miners. The room was filled to overflowing. There was more talk than usual, more drink, more excitement. One could almost feel the spirit ot' unrest in the atmosphere. The play ran high, drink flowed freely and guns were osteuta- tiously displayed. I noticed in particular one group of players composed of Four Fingered Jack, a professional gambler lately arrived, his boon companion, Ike, Togo and Arnold. Jack, with his gun lying conveniently at elbow, was playing in hard luck, consequently in an evil temper. In the midst of their play the door opened. Curtis, with his badge of office conspicuously displayed, entered, and after glancing' around, walked up to Jack, tapped the pistol lightly, and asked what he used it for. Very tall and handsome he looked, standing' the1'e unconcerned, though he knew he was daring death. Jack gave him a surprised look. Any of your business? he asked insolently, and then broke into a stream of profanity, seemingly having- for its object the principle of one minding his own business. You are a stranger at this place. I advise you to go post yourself. II'e dou't play card games he1'e with guns, he added, looking him straight in the eye, I will just take charge of this. Accidents will happen, you know. Jack, knife in hand, sprang' to his feet with a snarl. I-Ie stood quivering with anger, blinded and rendered reckless with rage. He drew back the knife to strike. Before the blow could fall, Arnold brought a bottle sharply across his wrist. with a howl of pain he let the knife fall. Then there was a revolver report from Ikcy's gun and Arnold sank to the floor, a bullet in his breast. Up to this point the onlookers had been content to let affairs take their course without interferance on their part. But this last wa.s too much. Perhaps they thought cf a wife who was now a widow, or of a child that was fatherless. Eager hands seized the two gamblers and they were carried toward the door. This tragedy had been too rapid for my mind to grasp. I stood staring blankly. Now I come to myself. Plainly our first duty was to take the body of Arnold home. Then the thought occurred that it was necessary for someone to inform Mrs. Arnold of the occurrence. I looked blankly at Ashton, and he looked at me. You must do it, he declared. So with a heavy heart I started in advance of the body, which was bourne by a few miners. As I hastened down the street I came upon the crowd. It was silent and there was something awful in that silence. As I passed by I saw the two gamblers, with ropes around their necks, pulled from the ground and dangle loosely in space. Then shots were fired. Two corpses, riddled with bullets would swing idly in the wind tomorrow, I thought as I hastened to her door. I will pass over the painful interview. My heart grows full even yet when I think ot' it. Smut the body arrived and was placed in her bedroom. The miners departed, leaving only Curtis and myself. I was undecided as to our course and looked to Curtis for aid. He had eyes only for her and for the corpse. What were his thoughts, I wondered. Did he see in the cold, dead form before him a personal likeness? Did he recognize the similarity between their lives and See his own fate there, had it not been for her who was weeping so violently?

Broad and deep the waters lay With not a wave or motion, The king of day stood out sublime Above the placid ocean. The ship moved off from the shores of time To sail for four long years: Its freight of souls, two score or more, Wlere mingling joy with tears. Behind us lay the Elysian shore, Swept by the cooling breeze, Before us lay, in broad extent, The dark and stormy seas. TFlll'iilll l' and further every day, Wle sailed the watery zone, Sonnetimes the gods would clear the way, Sonic-liines we sailed alone. Rui soon Poseidon stretehed his hand- Thnt hand nl'flGSill1y- And with his trident raised or quelled The great and boundless sea. And :it the helm the flhziron stood And steered the Seyllns byg THE NAUGHTY-SIX CALYX Nor did he with Charybdises Or other sea powers vie. His eyes were never, never closed By all-subduing sleep, Nor failed as mortals' often do That watchful vigils keep. He steered us to an Helleuian isle A bow-shot from its gleaming strand, The rocks loomed up, all dark and grand, And destined never to die. And as the goddess Eos blushed, NVe stepped upon the shore, Mid musty tomes and ancient domes, We ne 'er had seen before. By Diree 's sweetly flowing stream, We silent wondering stood, And gazed upon the throne of Zeus All sprinkled o'er with blood. Though true wisdom is ever glad to learn, And not too proud of power, Our self-suiiicient obstinacy Is folly s deceitful flower. We delved for days in Grecian lore VVith noble Sophocles: VVith Homer fought the Trojan YVar, And learned from Euripides. But Zeus soon eyed us as a foe Upon a luckless Held, And hurled his thunder on our throng- VVe had to iight or yield. A battle ne 'er so fierce was fought By noble men before: Our ship was forced to sail away And leave three men ashore. We sailed, fearing not the winds. Nor mountain circling waves: Defying ocean tempests wild. And bearing hearts of braves. THE NAUGHTYSIX CALYX Day after day, night after night, Until we struck the sand, And shouts come ringing from the mast- The watchman crying, Land! The waves threw foam against our ship, And Water beads flew high, The hazy sunbeams stealing thru Made rainbows on clear sky. Let's to the shore, our pilot cried, Or else to watery graves, For ere another sun our ship Will be beneath the waves. With boathooks, stays, and mizzen chains, Vie threw our life boats o'er, Which Hood tides caught and bore away And ebbing left ashore. An unknown isle in an unknown sea iVas now to be our home, Till masts and sails were raised anew To bear us o'er the foam. Here oft we saw the sun retire And draw Night's sable screen, And leave his trailing lane of fire Thru spans of ocean green. In fields of labor strange and new, Our luckless lot was castg New calls were made upon the crew From galley rooms to mast. YVith levelling rods from willow poles, And chains from wilhes and vines, And stakes and transit instruments Wo surveyed among the pines, And for a ship dock trenched and dug And laid thc neither lines.

One early eve the moon hung low Amid the crimson mist, The waves embraced her with their arms, And quietly they kissed. Then up the skies she slowly moved, With gentle modest grace, And sought the shadows of the earth, In which to hide her face. Eclipse tonight, the ery went round, What omen can it be? 'Tis Paulus' sign for life or death On either land or sea. Half filled with wonder, half with dreams, Of some great crisis near, Our hearts beat loud with strange high hor That banished every fear. The waves rose high up to the sky, And made the sea cliffs drip, With surges strong and violent, They freed our sand-bound ship. She drifted with the waves and tide Straight thru our open lock, And when the waters quelled we had Her safe within the dock. With new pine masts and mended prow, And sails hung full and free, We then began to plot and plan Another course at sea. Our latitudes and longitudes We measured from the stars, Polaris guided for the one, The other fixed by Mars. And as fre cheered the dock xv Our ship had left her bed: The roaring blast then drove us fast. And northward aye we fled. as cleared DQS Q THE NAUGHTY-SI CALYX X The lonely isle fell days behind As we parted the span of green, And leagues away a placid bay And granite cliffs were seen. As Israel followed fire and eloud, VVe thither turned our ship, And ere the brassy sun went down, lVe'd let OU1' anchors dip. The sun soon made his nether course, And set the east aglowg The stars went in, the moon went down, And all was peace below. Oni on! our leader cried, VVe've found the Eden land, Behold the beds of silver ore, And gold dust in the sand. And on we went with highest hopes O'er mountain, vale and plain, Like some wild stream of impulse blind That rushes toward the main. Now we pause, alas, we're lost! Oh vain deluding' sight! Mid ereviees: the mammal graves, And eaves as black as night. Great fossil beds of trilobites, Of erinoids, shells, and favosites, And ornilhiehnie stones, The needle shaped stalaefites, And ealeareous sfalagmifes, And mammillary bones. The salls oozed out and eryslalized ln white and green and blue, And gases l nmed l'rom ereviees, And rising' dimmed our view.

When death is near the bravest fly, So we retraced our path, All sad and to1'11 and weak and worn, We faced the lowering wrath. Three brave and noble men were lost Before we reached the sea, Their bones are 'neath some lava bed, Or bleaching on some lea. Once more to hear the billows break Was music to our ears, As welcome and as passing sweet As music of the spheres. VVe raised our anchors from the slime And let our ship go free The gurgles at her side were heard, As like some giant white sea bird, She sped across the sea. The isle we left was Reidland, The isle of toil and pain, Tho' long and hard the tasks we learned, Uuon the isle that many spurned, They were not learned in vain. One morning as the king' of day Drove in ten million stars, And threw across our dew drenched deck The lengthy shades of spars, New land was seen, low stretched and green, And lined with reeds and flowers, And ere the day had passed away, We 'd claimed the land as ours. WVe found it a land of myths and gods, Of heroes and of strife: Yvhere Virgil sang, and Orpheus played. And Horace sweetened life. THE NAUGHTY-SIX CALYX But soon we were vexed by war's alarms, That caused our joys to cease, We tried to shun the den of arms By singing songs of peace. Alas! we 'd crossed the Rubicon Approaching ancient Rome, And Dallas called the gods about To d1'ive us from his home. The proudest hearts may be subdued And not be said to fail- lVe left the Romans with their Rome And took our faithful sail. For leagues we sailed the placid sea And scarce a wind did blow, The clouds around hung lazily, Like banks of drifted snow. Soon we reached an island sea, The Sea of Paradiseg 'Twas then we saw the hills of hope, And there we read our horoscope, In new stars and new skies. We 'd sailed from out the ancient world Into an English seag Once more our hearts with joy were filled, For we once more felt free. Wle stayed our ship and went ashore And sought the English king, And in transcendent majesty VVe found the royal Ping. He took us thru his spacious courtsg VVe lingered many days To hear the poems of Milton read And see Shakepearcan plays. Sometimes we paused with Pope 01' fil'1lY. Sometimes we cast our lot NYitl1 Goldsmith. Burns or Keats. lVith fl0ll'l'l4lQ.l't' or with Scott.

Across the sea our vagrant ship Divided waves and foam, Our hearts rejoiced, on every lip WVas 'tHome, home, sweet home.

Sombre clouds may float above you, There are always clouds somewhere, The darkest day will pass away And tomorrow may be fair. Fix a goal that's worth the gaining In the distance, and then strive, 'Tis the thing beyond that ever Keeps the heart and hope alive.

If there was not something of real, substantial value in it, the fact would have been discovered long ago. The generous patronage which it receives, nnd the con- tinued confidence which it enjoys, is conclusive proof that Erskine College has made good the promises with which it began three generations ago. It has diligently sought a reputation for solidity and thoroughness---for depth, rather than for broadness. It has made no lofty pretensions to wideness, but its two courses, Claysiwzl and Scien fzjic are as broad as can be covered by the student in the time allotted to a college training. The spirit of the college is distinctively christian. The cultivation of the moral facul- ties is not held subordinate to any other consideration. Expemes Are such as bring a college education within the reach of those of small means. For fuller information send for a catalogue. . . P R E S S L Y President UQ-Q25 Q-'Q5'Q'? :S Q: 0?
