What has been the nature of its evolution? Just so it may be asked concerning Furman University, What are the essential points of her history? And in the consideration of this question we find that the growth of this institution has been one of the greatest triumphs of the Baptist denomination in the South. The struggle for existence began so early as 1827, when Furman Academy was founded at Edgefield Courthouse. The faculty then consisted of one man. Furman Academy took its name from Richard Furman, the first president of the Triennial Convention of Baptists. This brilliant man was instrumental in the founding not only of Furman, but also Mercer of Georgia and Hamilton of New York. In 1829 the Academy was removed to the High Hills of Santee, where it still possessed only one teacher. Jesse Hartwell and Samuel Furman were the instructors in 1830. The institution suspended its activity during the years 1835 and 1836. Again the school was moved, this time to Winnsboro, in 1837. Dr. Hooper, of North Carolina, was elected president, and Furman continued its work of producing noble men. Dr. J. L. Reyonlds succeeded Dr. Hooper as president. In 1844 we find Dr. J. C. Furman senior professor. This man. an educator in the highest sense, built up a theological department between the years 1844 and 1851. In 1851 the school was removed to Greenville, and was opened in 1852 as Furman University. For ten years the University continued its good work, but at the expiration of that time the havoc of the Civil War closed the doors. Before 1869 several attempts were made to reopen, but without effect. But in the year mentioned Furman once more began the work of education, and continued without cessation till 1881. when it suspended in June, but reopened once more in October. The long presidency of the aged Dr. Furman ended in this year. His aid in building up the institution had been invaluable. Dr. Charles Manly now assumed control and directed operations wisely and well until 1897. In that year Dr. A. P. Montague was made president. During his administration two modern and much-needed buildings were erected on the campus, Montague Hall and the Judson-Alumni Auditorium. Dr. Montague left us in 1902. and for one 10 year Dr. Judson was president. Then Dr. Edwin M. Poteat, pastor of one of the largest churches in Philadelphia, was called to till the chair, and accepted. For two years now he has been with us, and has pleased not only the student body, but also the denomination throughout the State. Last year two valuable additions were made to a faculty already strong. Sidney Ernest Bradshaw, Ph. I)., accepted the chair of Modern Languages, while Warren M. Steele, M. A. (Yale), became Professor of Philosophy. 1'he recent movement to endow the University met with great success. There was pledged in all $125,000, of which nearly $60,000 has been raised. Of the total amount pledged Dr. Judson gave $21,000. This venerable man. our link with the past,” as lie has so well been called by our president, is with us yet—hale and hearty in his eighty-sixth year. The value of his aid in prolonging the life of the institution cannot he estimated. He gave it his whole life, and then his fortune. Xay, more, he presented Furman with even his little house and farm in the suburbs of Greenville. Although so far advanced in years, he continues to meet a few classes in his beloved mathematics and astronomy, and in his quiet way shows young men the beauties of the ellipse, the parabola and the hyperbola, and how the value of an integer over an infinitesimal is infinity. May the day he far removed when no longer shall we see that dear form in the classroom and no longer hear that gentle voice bless and direct! Soon we hope to see a Carnegie Library added to our equipment. Another building which is much needed is a gymnasium. In the plans exhibited last commencement there were indicated the future sites of not only a gymnasium and a library, but also of another dormitory and a science ball. But, after all, there is something which we need much more than these and of which Furman University is fully deserving. It is the loyal support of on enthusiastic body of alumni. Nowadays no college can prosper unless the men who have gone forth into life from her walls look upon the institution from which they took their degrees as their mater, their mother. Filial affection bestowed in this way is not affection misplaced when the alma mater is Furman University. Rally, then, alumni, to the standard raised in Greenville. The recent proposal to change the name from Furman University to Furman College did not meet with approval. Well and good. If this school is to be called a university, let us make it one. The goal set before us now is the Baptist University of the South. 11 UK RICHARD FURMAN ©r. (Rtc arb jfurman ICHARD I'TIv.MAX was torn at Fsopus in Xew Vork, 1755. He was brought to South Carolina while an infant, and in his fifteenth year he went with ills family to the farm on the high hills of Santee. He and his mother soon became interested in a revival conducted by a Baptist preacher named Joseph Reese, and were led into the Baptist fold, lie was already a powerful preacher in his nineteenth year, and before he was twenty-five years old Cornwallis had offered a large reward for the influential rebel. In 17PO he began his public ventilation of education for children and especially for young men called to the ministry. He consumed five years in finding an unobjectionable plan for the churches to unite upon, and from that year. 1791, tiil his death. 1825, he was the leading American Baptist advocate of education. After twenty-two years spent in educating candidates for the ministry with the money that was furnished by a few churches, he went as a delegate to Philadelphia and was spontaneous!) selected as President of the Convention. He was recognized as the foremost man in the general body for what he had already done for the development of missions and education. In 1817 he was reelected President, and during the session lie made a set speech, advocating the propriety and the duty of the Convention to become also an educational tody. ()f this speech The Loiter Pay Luminary said : The President having, with the approbation of the Convention, called the Rev. Dr. Baldwin to the chair, placed before the body a speech of considerable length and great interest on tile very serious and religious importance of a well-informed ministry; upon which the Convention resolved unanimously that the communication made by the Rev. Dr. Turman, relative to the education of pious young men. who appear to be called of God to the work of the ministry, with other subjects connected therewith, be referred and especially recommended to the Board. The plan was in due time approved by the Board, but no lasting success at tended the central school at Washington, because Dr. Furman could not give with his plan that patient wisdom which made him work and wait for the slowly-expanding interest of his brethren in the great work. Twenty-eight years elapsed to fore three associations formed the State Convention with the prime object of founding the Furman Institution. In 1.824 he was for the last time present at the Convention and Board of Agents which were to begin the school within three years. He 13 had seen over thirty students aided in their studies during his long life, and still had in the Association some $8,000 in cash over all expenses. Ilis farewell sermon was from the text: “According to the grace of Hod which is given unto me, as a wise master builder, I have laid the foundation and another buildeth thereon; but let every man take heed how he buildeth thereon.” The highest evidence of his penetrating wisdom in the persevering efforts to incarnate his plans in reference to education is found in the men who followed and carried them on: B. Johnson, Basil Manly. Sr., J. L. Reynolds. J. C. Furman. James 1 Hovee, W illiam Williams, Basil Maniy, Jr., J. A. Broadus and others, many of whose names are written in the book of life. In his well-developed manhood, physically, mentally and spiritually, like Abraham, he towers high above his brethren of that day and generation. lie was a man sent of God! 14 ©r. 'll?. Q0. 3° n60n ILLIAM BULLEIN JOHNSON was a good and great man. He was preeminent as a master of assemblies. IN succeeded I)r. Furman as President of the State Convention and continued to fill the position till 1850. when his age made it desirable to retire, lie was president of the Triennial Convention one or more times, and when the Southern Baptist Convention was formed. Dr. Johnson was selected to preside over the body. His vocation was teaching in female colleges, but he was also pastor of churches and a ready, forceful preacher. Dr. Johnson was a discreet friend of the school begun at Edgefield, and removed to the high hills of Santee, thence to Winnsboro. where it remained until it became Furman 1’niversitv. In all the disasters that befell the nascent institution Dr. Johnson always made a clear, frank, manly, sincere and comprehensive report to the people. He wrote an autobiography, but in it made no reference to the honors he had enjoyed or the offices he had filled or the laborious or unrequited work he had done for education. At his death, in 1862. bis pastor, Richard Furman, declared that he had done more to bring Furman University into existence than any other living man. is UR. BASIL MANLY. S«. ©r. Q mf QYlanfp, |hr. ASIL MAX1.Y, SR., was connected with the management of the Furman Institution about ton years. Me graduated at the State College in December, 1821. and had as hearers of his graduating speech the delegates who had arrived to form the Baptist State Convention. ()ne of the delegates invited him to preach at his church in Kdgefield District, whither he went and labored with remarkable success, lie had been commended by Richard Furman as his own successor in Charleston, and it was from this important pastorate that Dr. Manlv's influence was exerted. At a casual reading of the minutes one would say that Dr. Manly did not figure much in the councils of the denomination; but a closer study discloses the fact that the modest, thoughtful, methodic, amiable brother was in reality the power behind the throne. He was most nearly Richard Furman’s successor in spirit, and his best efforts were given for the school’s advancement. It was to his experience in 1828-1838 that made him the chief factor, next to I)r. Boyce, if not equal to him, in founding the Southern Baptist Seminary, lie had urged economy in the management of the Furman Institution and the keeping of the capital intact: but in spite of all that could lie done, failure in j art was inevitable. He therefore advocated a Southern Seminary under the patronage and guidance of several States. Twenty-four years were to elapse before his ideal was reached and given a concrete existence. He was an apostolic man. an honor to his denomination and an ornament to the country that gave him birth! 17 QtSoarb of Cruetcee (with expiration of terms of service.) Rev. I). M. Ramsey, I). D..

There were fifty-one who mustered for service in the fall of V j. Not all lx� rc the same instruments of war with which to fight their way through the perils and hardships of the course. Some depended upon brain and energy: some almost wholly u| on energy; some upon bluffing,” and some upon the noble art of legging.” Soon the battle was on, and our host fought nobly, and placed our flag well in the foreground. The V Class were well represented in all the phases of college life. Some distinguished themselves on the athletic field: some in the classroom, and some proved to he especially talented in music. nr work in the Y. M. C. A. and the Societies was all that could be desired by the upper classmen, but we being Freshmen. of course, could not put ourselves forward in this line of work. Six of our number distinguished themselves on the famous eleven of the session of ’02- 03. three did good service on the baseball team, and six were meml ers of the Glee Club. But the record of which we arc csjtceially proud was made in the classroom. There were several h'reshmen who placed their names on the honor roll, and one of our number headed this roll. The siege against Math.. Kng.. and Latin was very trying. At the end of the first charge, when all was cleared away, many were found wounded upon the field. When the signal for the second charge was given, only thirty-three reported for service, and of these nine were recruits. The work of the previous year had prepared us for greater conflicts than we were at first able to confront, so accordingly wc faced the work of the Sophomore year. We enjoyed sitting with Horace by the fireside as he heaj cd on the logs, and poured out his old wine. By the aid of (icero's De Scncctuti we prepared ourselves for the time when we could no longer enter the race-course, on account of old age. The terror of the year was that Soph. Math.. that all have heard so much of. After passing wnat we thought was not only Limits in name but in truth, we went into the regions of Infinite” (series). Intercollegiate football having been ruled out at Furman, we did not have an opportunity to place anyone, as formerly, on the ’Varsity eleven, but to give 31 our strength in this line an airing we got together a few men, and with the aid of the Freshmen defeated the Junior-Senior team to the tune of to to 5. Our nijui Maree again placed his name at the head of the honor roll, with a number of his classmates lower on the list. The death of our classmate, David Edwin Ballcntine, cast a gloom over each member. His life was beautiful in every respect, and we shall ever cherish his memory. After a short furlough twenty-one returned to ranks, bringing with them two others. These were to brave that year which is considered the hardest of all— the Junior. With determination the siege was begun. At the very mention of Logic and Psychology each one shuddered with fear: but later it was found that these were not as bad as they appeared, and each one seemed to enjoy both studies. Of course “distance lends enchantment. Xo one will ever forget the celebrated Junior Latin Class” of this year. Never was there such battling and falling back. Xmas exam, marks were reported not very favorable. Despite this blow we recuperated, and finally made such a record tit aversum hostem indcrc nemo posset. Death again entered our ranks and took from us the one who was looked upon as the most brainy man among 11s. Glenn Smith was loved and respected by all who knew him. We could find no fault in his character. This year the '06 with the 05 Class defeated the Fresh.-Soph. Football Team, 10 to 5. Only fifteen survived from the deadly combat, and now these few— the survival of the fittest” have set out upon that long march toward the goal where hangs the coveted diplomas. With our pleasures of being Seniors have come troubles in the forms of Philosophy and Ethics. We have discussed Philosophy from Thales to the “Senior Philosophy Class of Furman University, and there still remain a few questions which might be asked. Ethics has proved to be a source of great benefit, though it did at times seem very hard. As the custom is, the Juniors and Seniors united against the Freshmen and Sophomores. After a hard fight the Junior-Senior team proved its superior strength. The score stood 14 to 7, and the banner is ours. We have not yet entered that great battle against the outside world, where each shall have further opportunity to prove his worth, and we are not claiming that anyone of us will “set the world on fire, but we think all will make fairly respectable citizens wherever they may reside. 32 $ h B.

Greenville •ii JUNIOR CLASS Ifyietoxg of Cfaee of '07 X LOOKING BACK over the past three years we are astounded at the rapidity with which this eventful time has flown, and agree with the words which say. We spend our years as a tale that is told, for it seems only yesterday that we assembled on the campus to make up the class of Naught Seven. After a thorough examination, an obstacle with which the Freshman classes preceding 11s had not contended, thirty-nine were permitted to enter the ranks. About this time we got together and organized the class for the year and began our fight for graduation with that earnestness and zeal which has always characterized the class. The amount and grade of work done in the classroom that year has never Ir-cu surpassed by any class. Of all the classes that will graduate during our President’s administration at the University, ours will be the honor first to have taken the full course under his guidance. But we must not devote further space to this part of the work of that year. From our earliest history we have directed our attention to every department of college life. On the athletic field we have made a record which has cause to be coveted by any class. In the class football games we have been defeated but once—in the fall of 04. When we were Freshmen. with the game practically new to most of us. some of the best plays were made by our men. and with the assistance of the Sophs we easily defeated the Junior-Senior team by a score of 12 to 5. This year more interest than ever was manifested in the games. It was learned that an admirer of football and a generous friend of the students was having a handsome banner made to be given each year to the winning team. Of course it was going to be an honor for the team that won the first year. The greatest rivalry existed, but the Freshmen and Sophomores were defeated by a score of 14 to 7. and today we hold the banner. In baseball we have always taken an important part. Two of our men have been honored as captains, and each year an '07 man has been the 'Varsitvs first pitcher. In the spring of 04, when Furman won the State championship, there were more of our men on the team than from the other three classes. Lanford. an 07 man. who was Furman’s star pitcher, still holds his old position and is captain of the team. We have given no little attention to the literary work of the school, both in the college publications and the two literary societies. The medals, given by the societies for the most improvement and the best essay, were hotly contested for by us. 43 The work in the classroom this year which is said to be the hardest of all college life, has by no means been found easy, but it has been carried forward with a determination that knows no defeat. Early in our course we realized that in order to become well-rounded men it would be necessary to develop the moral along with the mental and physical sides of our lives. This development we have found in the Y. M. C. A. We soon acquainted ourselves with every detail of the work and have earnestly striven in the furtherance of its cause. Among the higher offices with which our men have been honored one is President and another Yice-President of the Y. M. C. A., while others have held various other offices, and as Bible Class leaders three of our number have identified themselves. Now we have completed the greater part of our college career. The dear old Class of '07 will have only one more year's history to record. We look back over it thus far with pride, and trust that what we have done will only be an indication of what we shall do in the future. 41 Sophomore SOPHOMORE CLASS Sophomore Cfaee President. II. M.

That bright autumn morning marks the beginning of a great epoch in our lives. Everything, to act in harmony with the sun, was bright and cheery, except this crowd of boys, who looked as though they had lost all the friends they ever had. It was impossible for us to be jolly, for we had just left our dear homes and come to a new place, where we were shown things in the Semore Club that we had never seen before—and never wished the pleasure of seeing the same things in the same way again. It would have been unreasonable for any one to expect us. who had been accustomed to quiet homes, to be lively when we had seen, done and heard so many strange things the previous night, and then on the same morning had to appear before the President to write our names in the mighty “Doomsday Book” of the College. When the President did enter with this frightful-looking book under his arm there was not one of us who would not have been willing to give all he ever expected to possess just to see Mas old yallow cat once more.” After this ordeal had passed, we organized and elected all officers necessary to carry on the business of our organization. Now, having completed the formation of our class, each one entered the classroom with a full determination to do the best work possible and to make a history for the Class of '08 that very few classes had ever obtained or could ever obtain. With this main object in view, we made a successful and peaceful voyage, with the exception of a few stormy days, such as Christmas. March and June examination periods, which caused us all to become seasick and to think very seriously of falling overboard. Hut, finally, the day came when we. having steered our boat successfully through the stormy Freshman Channels, landed safely on the apparently beautiful Isle of Sophomorism.” When we reached the shores of this isle each of the crew thought that we had discovered Utopia, but, alas, when we came ashore on the twentieth of September. nineteen hundred and five, we found that it was a place of much trouble and anxiety, and not the place of ideal pleasure. 48 There were quite a number of our men who did not return to resume their work with us this year, but we still have a nice size class, as several of the new 1 oys joined our class. We have had some hard struggles in the battles of school life this year. but. with the kind assistance of our competent professors, we have all been victorious, except a few who were captured by the mighty forces of Cupid. We hope our fallen comrades much success, and that we may have the same fate in the distant future. 0 jYee man JVeeflman CCaee ’resident. VV. C. Pin SON Vice-President, C. M. Workman Secretary, L. F.

A reception was given on the following evening to the new men by the V. M. C. A. It was very much enjoyed and made the new hoys think that, after all, it was not so very had to he away from home. Hut when we had gone to our rooms, expecting to drown our troubles in peaceful sleep, we were suddenly awakened by a pounding on the door and a cry of “Rats”! The door was opened, and before we could realize what we were about we were making speeches as if we were in the United States Senate. We were then asked to favor the old hoys with singing and dancing, and of course we did not refuse to oblige them. In a few days we were taken before the Grand High Priest of that most sublime order, the Semo Club, where we were given a warm reception. A meeting of the class was called for the purpose of electing officers for the year. There were elected a President, a Vice-President, and a Secretary and Treasurer. I11 the literary societies the Freshmen have done exceedingly well, and some are making brilliant records for themselves. All have entered the work with a determination to get everything the societies can give them. In the classroom our class has made a splendid record, and although some of us have had to burn a quantity of midnight oil. we are none the worse for it. and we always remember that it will help us to gain and hold that most distinguished title of Sophomore. In athletics the Freshmen are showing that they are not to be behind in that part of their education. Several made good records in the class football games, and on the baseball diamond they are ‘‘showing up well in practice. Some are on the “Varsity” team, and are making good. The receptions given at the female colleges were enjoyed very much by all of the ‘‘Rats. especially those who did not have that painful experience called “getting stuck. In the Y. M. C. A. the Freshmen have taken a great interest, which has proved very helpful in building up the moral side of our lives. We hope that every man will take a good rest at home when the present session is over and come back-next year to do more than we or any other class has ever done before, and make the best Sophomores that Furman has ever had.

Poore ECHO STAFF-SPRING TERM CARNEGIE LIBRARY £t6rarp (Ttotee UR INC I Till-: PAST SUMMER Mr. Sloan I . Watkins, assisted by die Librarian, catalogued our Library, using the Cutter-Sanlx rn expansive classification, indexing the books by means of a card catalogue. both of these systems being recognized as the best and most up-to-date in this branch of the library science. The class symbols and author numbers are written on the title page and on the labels pasted on the back of each book, and also on the book plate pasted on the inside of each book. The books are also classified and arranged on the shelves alphabetically by authors, under their class divisions, which arc represented by certain letters. The class number and book number combined make the call number, which gives each book a mark bv which it is easily distinguished. This call numlier is then put on the card catalog, and any one wishing to use a book is thus enabled to find without difficulty the book desired by the corresjxmding call number on the book label. 02 The Life of Alfred Tennyson would, for example, be given this call number: E T 312-1. 88, E being the class symbol for biography and T the initial letter of the subject's name is used for Tennyson, and L being the initial letter of Lyall, the author’s name. Other subjects, such as Fiction. History, 'rheology. Geography, etc., are treated in a like manner as to class, title, subject and author. While our Library is at present not large in the number of its volumes, its scope along certain lines is quite wide, and the selection of matter is excellent. To our magazine list we have added Everybody's Magazine, Lippincott's, System. Leslie's Weekly, and possibly one or two others. A volume each of the poems of Reginald C. Robbins and Wilfred Campbell— a set of fifteen volumes—the works of Huxley and Tyndall, and several other books have been added to our shelves. Wc had hoped to have our new library, for which Mr. Carnegie gave us $15,000 for the building, ready for dedication at the coming commencement, but on account of unavoidable delays we have as yet done nothing towards it. However. wc hope ere the coming summer is over to have it well under way and nearing completion by this time next year. JinSON ALUMNI MALI. (ftbefpfltan Society 0fflCCT6 I 13. F. Allen..............

ADELPH1AN SOCIETY £l$orf Jjteforp of Qfoefpljtan £?octefp HORTLY AFTER the founding of the University, the Adelphian Society was formed. There is some question as to the exact date. The name is a derivation of the Greek word A A os (Adelphos), meaning a brother. The Society met for a long time on the other : side of the river in a room on the second floor of a large three-story building near the present National Hank of Greenville.” The question of moving from this hall was brought before the Society and after a very warm discussion the motion that we move was carried. ()n account of this action there was some bitter feeling caused in our ranks, and at the regular meeting on May 21. 1852. several members resigned from the Society and formed the Philosophian Society. Where the Society met for more than a year after this is not known to the present scribe. Though from minutes it seems that they met just anywhere they could secure a room. By August 12. 1853, they had secured a regular place for meeting, for the minutes at this time began to he headed Adelphian Hall. The minutes of February 10, 1854, state that a room had been secured in the University building, which had just been completed. They met here until the Alumni Mali was lniiit in 1900. when they moved into the hall now used by the Society. It is interesting in reading the old records to note some of the steps taken by iiie Society. When an organization of any kind is started one of the first things to do is to get a badge or some other sign, so people ntaj sec who you arc. A badge committee was appointed March 4. 1853. March 17. 1854. the committee ro| ortcd that eight badges had come and been disposed of. A dozen more were ordered at once. Some very aggressive member put forward a motion in July, 1853. in regard to publishing a college magazine. This was the first step toward the Furman Echo. The resolution, however, was laid on the tabic indefinitely, and it was many years before it was brought up again. The Adelphians originated the plan of one society securing a commencement speaker one year and the other society the next year. The first step was made March 25. 1853. There was a break in the histoiy of the Society from October 4. 1861, to March to, 1866, on account of the War Between the States. During this time some had resigned and volunteered in the service of their country. After the 09 war the Society reorganized and since then everything lias been running smoothly, the Adeiphians taking their share of the honors, and doing their share of the work. The South Carolina Intercollegiate Oratorical Association was started in 1898 with an Adelphian as its President. Prom the eight contests between the two societies Adeiphians have won first place four times, and our representatives have always ranked high in the State contests. In May, 1904, the Society was made secret, not allowing even the names of the officers to be revealed. In the fall of 1905 the clause regarding the secrecy of officers was taken out of the constitution. 70 (p ifoeopfHan Btferarp octefp OFFICERS' FOR Fall Term 1905-06 President Vice-President . L. D.

PHII.OSOPHIAN SOCIETY $)t6for£ of f$e (p tfoeop tan octetp N MAY, 1852, the Adelphian Literary Society became divided inic two factions as the result of a misunderstanding which arose concerning the place of meeting. The society was at that time holding its meetings in what was then known as the Me Bee Hall, in the village of Greenville. On the second iloor, just over the hall in which the society held its meetings, the Masons had a hall where they also met on Saturday evenings. The dispute above referred to was caused by the Masons telling the society that it would have to find another meeting place: that the noise occasioned by the society was disturbing the meetings of the Masons. As a consequence of this, half of the society was in favor of getting another place to hold its meetings. The other half was in favor of retaining the old hall, believing that the society had as much right to the hall as did the Masons. The faction that was in favor of giving up the hall retained the name of the Adelphian Society. The faction that was opposed to giving up the hall met in a body of woods near the present campus one night soon after the division and effected the organization of the Philosophian Literary Society. Mr. G. A. Norwood took the “stump.” and after a few remarks by him the society went into organization. Mr. Norwood was elected President of the society, and Mr. J. K. Mclver was elected Recording Secretary. The Philosophians then went back to the old place of meeting in Me Bee Hall. This noble band of lovers of wisdom” at once began a prosperous career, but it was destined not to last but a few years. It had been organized not more than nine years when the great civil struggle which for a time was to wreck the very life of the University called forth her noble sons to take up arms in defense of the South. During this short period of success the inspiration afforded by the burning questions of the day produced some very heated discussions and the society attained an eminence which probably surpassed the highest hopes and fondest dreams of its founders. The times demanded men in the highest stnse of the word, and the Philosophian Society laid upon the altar of her country men who in every respect were equal to the demand. The period of the struggle between the North and the South is a period of silence in the annals of the society. On April 9. 1866. the society was reorganized, but many voices that had been heard within her walls were forever stilled “in noble, honorable battle.” The disheartened few that remained, inspired by the memory of their dead brothers, took up the burden anew, and from that day to this the Philosophian Society has made an enviable record. 7-1 In March, 1889. the society began the publication of the Philosophian, but later joined her sister society, the Adelphian, in publishing “The Journal.” now-known as “The Furman Echo.'’ “Excelsior” is the motto of the Philosophian Society, and one has only to examine her record to find that she has lived-up to her motto. In the Intercollegiate Iratorical Contest of South Carolina, which has been in existence only seven years, she has won first place once and second place twice. One of her representatives also won second place in the All-Southern Contest in Tennessee. This is a record of which any literary society in the South might well lx proud, and one that cannot he surpassed by any literary society in South Carolina. The Philosophian Society believes not only in the love of wisdom” but also in making orators of her members. On May 7. 1904. the society adopted tlx secret feature, and since then it has lx’en a strictly secret organization. Until the spring term of 1906 not even the names of the officers were made known. The secret feature has succeeded in some degree in forming a closer union, a stricter brotherhood, and has raised the society to a broader plane. The literary society fills a large place in college life, and the student who holds himself aloof from it loses much of the practical knowledge to be gained in a college course. The spirit of ardent rivalry which has always existed between the two societies at Furman calls forth the best efforts of the individual members, and is a means of advancing the work and developing lx th. W ith a glorious past and a prosperous present the Philosophian Society looks to the future for even greater things than she has realized in the past. May her fondest dreams be realized. 06. 75 TQDtmtere of octef anb (Drafortcaf Contest Ykar Winner at Furman Society Winner at Greenwood 1'UR MAN’S Rank. 1899 R. F.

As in all colleges, tin growth of the Young Men’s C hristian Association at Furman has been slow but sure. It has always stood for morality and whatever is best in college life. It has done a great work among the students, although circumstances have at times seemed to be against it. The influence of the Y. M. C. A. is far-reaching, inspiring the students with Christian zeal. The devotional services, which arc held iivthe hall of the Association in the Alumni Hall every Thursday evening, are well attended by the students, and much interest is manifested by those present. Each man feels that he has an interest in the work, and it is thus an excellent training for future Christian service. One of the most important features of the work of the Y. M. C. A. is the I’.ible Study Department. The teachers in this department are appointed from the student-body and are. in fact, looked upon more as leaders than teachers. They arc in daily contact with the members of their classes, and both students and teachers derive much benefit from the courses of study. The subjects for the class studies this year are: Old Testament Characters, the Minor Prophets. Studies in the Life of Christ. Mission Study, and Instruction for Personal Workers. Representatives are sent each year to the annual State Convention, where ideas concerning the work are exchanged and the best methods of carrying on the work are discussed. Much lasting good is always derived from thus coming in contact with the best men of the State. The Summer Conference is also a power for good in this great cause. It is held annually in June at Asheville, X. C. Our representatives always return with glowing accounts of the work done by this great organization all over the I’nited States. Here they hear the most noted men in the country who are engaged in the work, and they return greatly strengthened and encouraged for the work here. The Secretary of the inter-collegiate Y. M. C. A. visits us once a year, usually, and holds special services. Good results are realized and great and lasting good is done. This year the Y. M. C. A. held a week of special services in January and the services were conducted by the several members of the faculty. It was a week of spiritual revival and accomplished much good among the students. 7!� This year our Association sent three representatives to the International Students’ Conference, which met in Nashville, Tennessee. This is the largest organization of its kind in the world, and the advantages afforded by it arc unsurpassed. In this convention arc brought together the leaders of the Y. M. C. A. and many missionaries from all over the world. Surely it must have been an inspiration to all who were so fortunate as to attend. In eight years the membership Ins gradually increased until now it is more than live times the numl er with which it organized. In i8 ;8 it had fifteen members. now it has eighty members. May the day be not far distant when every student in college will identify himself with this great movement. so Semite £fu6 Officers . C. Poore, President R. K. Rutledge. Vice-President I.. I'.

HONEYCUTT £f}e Jfurman J'tdmg c oof HE BOARD OF TRUSTEES of Furman University, looking to the greatest educational interests of our denomination, at its meeting in 1900 instituted the Fitting School to supplant the Preparatory Department of the University. Prof. Hugh U. Haynsworth was elected headmaster of this infant institution, and it was under his wise direction that the policy of the school was outlined. Assisted by competent instructors, Professor Haynsworth conducted a most successful school until April. 1902. wlun he resigned his position to go abroad, preparatory to accepting the chair of Modern Languages in the University. Prof. C. 1� . Martin succeeded Professor Haynsworth as headmaster. Under the new administration the policy of the school remained unchanged; in fact, there was no break in the general order of things. In the Spring of 1904 Professor Martin resigned the headmastership in order to pursue his studies in Cornell University. Prof. A. Y. Honeycutt, who had been for two years Professor Martin’s assistant, was elected headmaster. At the same time Prof. J. L. ass was chosen master of Latin and Greek. At present the status of the Fitting School is as good as at any time in its history. In fact, the increased attendance from both the city arid from nonresident students makes it necessary to turn down applicants or increase the capacity of the school. This is not surprising when one recalls the history of the school; for it has always stood for thorough instruction and gentlemanly deportment. The moral tone of the students has ever been exceptionally high, and there has always existed between students and instructors a spirit of mutual confidence and sympathy which makes the school-life most pleasant and wholesome. The present faculty is composed of four men: Professors A. YY. and S. J. Honeycutt. Headmasters: C. 1 . Martin, and Y. M. Steele. 123 Cfaeeee of J'urman jjftffmg cfjoof xrsf tfaes Officers H. S.

Students are taught both methods of bookkeeping, best forms of books for quick reference and time saving. All forms of LEGAL and COMMERCIAL papers. RAPID, elegant, long handwriting, TYPEWRITING and SHORTHAND. Our graduates ask only for the tools, they write their recommendation. They are in far greater demand than the supply. Do you doubt it? Come to my office and I will prove it. Applications are often filed for our pupils before they complete their course. ENGAGED AT SALARIES from $50.00 to $100.00 per month to start with and unlimited opportunities in the line of promotion. The necessary knowledge and skill to fill said positions has been acquired in a reasonable time by students of only average natural ability. The most brilliant are apt to be too busy thinking of self. Therefore, Young Men and Young Ladies Examine yourself on the following: Have I strong will powers? Do I take too much advice? Have I opinions but not wedded to them? Am 1 polite and respectful to all classes? Have I the “BUMP” of self-reliance? Do I expect every one to bow in humble submission to me because I may imagine 1 have more brains, money anti muscle? Do I realize 1 am still on earth and perhaps descended from Adam and Eve? Do I try to do my duty and attend to it first and last? Am I a good listener and observer? Do I say “CAN’T” or “WILL”? Do I try to cultivate a place for things and keep them there? Do I realize an ounce of DIGESTED KNOWLEDGE is of more value than many pounds not assimilated? Do I distinguish between talking and doing? Do I believe that “George Washington was the father of his country,” but that-is president now? Do I dream long dreams of the past, or am I awake to the present value of COMMERCE, REAL ESTATE and MAN? Am I conscious of the fact that the 1906 SUCCESSFUL BUSINESS MAN or WOMAN is not entertained longer than 7 days out of a week listening to how many Indians our great grandfather ran from? NOW, MY YOUNG FRIENDS, you can think about it, that it is not an established fact, that there is any “ROYAL ROAD” to comfort and independence. ' Heights by great men, reached and kept. Were not attained by sudden flight. But they, while their companions slept. Were toiling upward in the night. The foregoing are some of the natural requisites which lead to success in anv vocation. THE DOOR OF SUCCESS IS OPEN TO YOU. BUT YOU MUST KNOW (not imagine) the PRACTICAL WORKINGS of the 1906 business office. The apprentice in this line is a thing of the past. WE KNOW WE CAN HELP YOU TO A QUICK START, because hundreds of pupils (boys and girls) TESTIFY TO THAT FACT. If vou will send us a postal it may be the initiatory step to your QUICK SUCCESS AND INDEPENDENCE.
