W. U. The 1913 Cherry Tree G. W. U. CHARLES EDWARD MUNROE DEAN OF THE GRADUATE SCHOOL | +—K H ARLES EDWARD MUNROE, son of Enoch and Emeline (Russell) 1 Monroe, and Professor of Chemistry and Dean of Graduate Studies in George Washington (formerly Columbian) University since 1892, was born at Cam- bridge, Massachusetts, May 24, 1849, After the usual course of studies in the Cam- bridge High School, he entered the Lawrence Scientific School of Harvard University, where he graduated with the degree of B.S. in 187L At the Scientific School he had as his master the foremost American chemist in his day, Professor Wolcott Gibbs. For about three years after graduation he was assistant in chemistry in Howard College under Professor j. P. Cooke, and from 1874 to 1886 he was Professor of Chemistry in the U 5. Naval Academy. From 1886 to 1892 he was chemist of the Torpedo Station at Newport, R. I., and also took part in the work of the Naval War College- In addition to these principal occupations he has had charge of U, S. Census work on chemical industries, and has done much work on explosives for the United States Gov- ernment, and especially in recent years for the U. S. Geological Survey and Bureau of Mines. He also served in 1885, 1890 and 1893 on the Annual Assay Com- mission, and in 1 898 was one of the Board of Visitors to the Naval Academy. Professor Munroe has been active in many scientific organizations, and has received signal honors from them. In 1 888 he was a Vice President of the American Associa- tion for the Advancement of Science, and President in 1 898 of the American Chemical Society. He is also a member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, the American Philosophical Society, the Washington Academy, the London Chemical Society, and the Deutsche Chemische Gesselschaft He is now President of the Cosmos Club. By the Sultan of Turkey he was decorated as Commandant of the Order of Medpdje, and he has received honorary degrees from the George Washington University. In 1 883 he married Mary Louise Barker, daughter of the late Professor George j. Barker, and has several children. Professor Munroe is recognized as the foremost American authority on the chem- istry of explosives, a subject upon which he has published many papers and some im- portant bibliographies. He invented a smokeless powder for the use of our Govern- ment, and introduced into chemistry the use of porous cones for purposes of filtration. These cones preceded the Gooch crucible, which, in turn, he improved by substituting a platinum sponge for the usual felt or asbestos. His scientific activities have been many and various. 7 REAR ADMIRAL CHARLES HERBERT STOCKTON President of the University G. W. U. The 1913 Cherry Tree G. W. U.

WILLISTON SAMUEL HOUGH HE sudden death of Dean Hough of Teachers College occurred but a few days prior to the opening of the present term of the University, The sad tidings fell like a thunderbolt from a dear sky upon the teachers and students of all the departments of the University and particularly upon those of Teachers College, whose extreme fortune it was to be honored by his association, friendship, instruction, and supervision. During his comparatively short affiliation with the college— seven years — he gained the love and reverence of the Faculty and of the students, most of whom are the teachers, principals and supervisors of the schools of this city. Williston Samuel Hough was fifty-one years of age at the time of his death. He was born in Williston, VC where he received his earlier education. His first college degree of Ph. D, was conferred upon him by the Michigan Agricultural College when he was twenty-one. For the next three years he pursued post-graduate studies at the University of Michigan where he obtained his Master ' s degree. He then went to Europe where he studied at the Universities of Heidelberg Haile, Berlin Paris and Oxford, and in 1 888, upon his return to this country he became instructor of philosophy at the University of Michigan. From 1889 to 1894 he served first as assistant and later as professor of philosophy at the University of Minnesota. For six years more he again studied at Oxford and Berlin doing research work in the history of philosophy and devoting much time to literary work. He first became connected with the George Washington University in 1907 as professor of psychology and education in charge of the education department. On June 1 1909, he was made dean of Teachers College which owes much of its success to his untiring effort and constant devotion. He was a member of many of the learned societies of the country such as the American Philosophical Association, National Association of College Teachers of Education, Southern Society of Psychology and Philosophy and Federal Schoolmen ' s Club (president 191 M2). He was a fellow of the A, A, A. S. His name appears upon the membership books of the Cosmos University and Chevy Chase Clubs. Professor Hough enjoyed an excellent literary career. He was the translator of A Critique of Kant ' 1 (from the German of Kuno Fischer) in 1888, and in 1909, in collaboration with Professor W. R. Royce he translated Rudolf Euken ' s great German work on The Problem of Human Life as Viewed by the Great Thinkers from Plato to the Present Time. He was the editor of Erdmann s History of Philosophy (three volumes) in 1890; third edition in 1898, He contributed frequently to many magazines and periodicals on philosophy and education. To those who knew him his merits need no lauding. His deep learning his gentle modesty his broad sympathies his unfailing courtesy and high sense of justice will never be forgotten by them. 13 CHERRY TREE BOARD Editordn-Chief Alvin McCreary Brown B us iness M an ager Duncan Campbell Smith Assistant Editors Myrtle Virginia King Earl Munro Jeffrey Editor of Organizations Ralph Hospital Sorority Editor Gertrude Veronica Browne Editor of Knocks Donald Langley Dutton Art Editor William T.

THE UNIVERSITY EORGE WASHINGTON UNIVERSITY has an historic past which would a be the pride of any institution, and its study is the privilege and the duty of every student An urban university rarely has the conditions favorable to the growth of academic traditions These generally cluster around some particular building or spot on the campus, and are commemorated by observances for which the privacy of the campus gives free opportunity for development. The college located in the city, and especially in the heart of the city, must be prepared to surrender much of its custom and tradition, from the very necessities of its situation. I he freedom of a campus in the business section of a city is out of the question. The concrete expressions of college spirit and undergraduate animation are apt to fall afoul of the Metropolitan Police. So George Washington has from its situation lost much of its student life, and much of l he tradition and custom that serves to commemorate the history of an institution. I he idea of a national university at the National Capita! dates from the beginning of our country’s history, George Washington in his will set aside a large sum of money for the founding of such an institution, and pictured his dream of the new city on the Potomac as a center of a broad, national culture. Thomas Jefferson, who drew up the firsl plan for the educational system of the District of Columbia, outlined three branches or stages of public education: the primary school, the academy, and a university. Con- gress doubted its authority under the Constitution to establish such a university, and took no action at the time. To this day the bequest has not been fulfilled. I he beginning of the present George Washington University can be traced back to the year 1819, when Luther Rice, a Baptist minister, impressed by the splendid oppor- tunities afforded to a college in the National Capital, set about energetically soliciting subscriptions from all classes of people all over the United States for the foundation of a college. By the aid of President Monroe a charter was secured from Congress in 1821 for the establishment of I he Columbian College in the District of Columbia ’ for the ‘’sole and exclusive purpose of educating youth in the English, learned, and foreign lan- guages, the liberal arts, sciences, and literature,” and with power to confer all degrees usually conferred by institutions of collegiate rank. The broad principles on which our University was founded are sufficiently indicated by a provision in our original charter to the effect that ' persons of all religious denominations shall he capable of being elected trustees, nor shall any person, either as president, professor, tutor, or pupil, be refused admittance into said college or denied any of the privileges, immunities, or advantages thereof, for or on account of his sentiments in matters of religion. 16 jG. W. U. The 1913 Cherry Tree G. W. U. A tract of land on what is now known as Columbia Heights was purchased with the money raised by Luther Rice through subscriptions, and a college building was com- pleted in 1822. Among the noted Americans and Britons who contributed to the fund were John Qumcy Adams, William F, Crawford, John C. Calhoun, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, the Bishop of Durham, Lord Ashburton, Sir James Mackintosh, as well as a number of members of Congress and other distinguished people, The formal opening of the College took place on January 9, 1822, with the Rev, William Staughton as president, and thirty-nine students in attendance. Only the theo- logical and classical departments were opened at this time. Within the next five years, however, the law, medical, philosophical, and preparatoiy departments were opened in rapid succession. The first commencement took place on December 15, 1824, when three men were graduated, before President Monroe, General Lafayette, the Secre- taries of State, War, and Navy, and leading members of both houses of Congress. The College showed a steady increase in the number of its students, and as early as 1824 had on its rolls 150 students, representing twenty -one out of the twenty-four States. This number has increased w r ithin the past few years to a maximum in the neighborhood of 1,500 students, representing every State and Territory in the Union, as well as a dozen or more foreign countries. Columbian College owed its life and prosperity to the continued and unremitting efforts of Luther Rice, who before his death in 1 836 secured for it nearly one hundred and fifty thousand dollars by subscriptions from practically every State in the Union. Later, John Withers, of Virginia, contributing from time to time, gave a total of nearl y seventy thousand dollars. Congress, during the first administration of President Jackson, appropriated lots worth twenty-five thousand dollars to Columbian and a like amount to Georgetown. This was the only money that the institution has ever received from the Government, As was the case in so many institutions, particularly in the South, the Civil War practically suspended classes in Columbian College, A large proportion of the students. Southern Baptists, went to fight in the armies of the Confederacy, and many fought in the armies of the Union. The College buildings were used by the Government for hos- pital purposes. When the war was over a few students drifted back to take up their studies, and Columbian College resumed its task of educating the youth of the District. In this period of its fortunes Columbian College owed a deep debt of gratitude to the benefactions of Mr. W, W, Corcoran, who contributed liberally to the work of the institution. By act of Congress the name of the College was changed in 1873 to the Columbian University, and the Board of Trustees was made self-perpetuating. Begin- ning with 1879 the transformation of the institution from a suburban college to a city university began. The Trustees came to the conclusion that Columbian must be removed to the center of the city in order to hold the students, and the piecemeal sale of the College Hill property was commenced. Mr, Corcoran offered the University the lot on 17 C. W. U. The 1913 Cherry Tree g. W. U, which the present Arlington Hotel is situated, but as the land in question was considered too small, Mr. Corcoran was induced to permit the sale of his gift and the reinvestment in cheaper lands. The Harris property, at Fifteenth and H streets, previously the site of a club house, was purchased, and a building, considered at the time one of the most up-to-date college buildings, was begun in 1883. During the following school year the removal to the heart of the city was effected. In the Fifteenth street building were located the classical and law departments, and the newly-founded Corcoran Scientific School, The old Law Building was erected in 1 898, and occupied by the departments of law and diplomacy. By act of Congress and with the approval of the Secretary of the Interior and the United States Commissioner of Education the name of the institution was changed in 1904 to The George Washington University. It became evident that the property at Fifteenth and FI streets was too valuable a piece of land to be utilized economically for college purposes, and it was sold to S. W. Woodward for $450,000. The Colleges of Arts and Sciences, Engineering and Mechanic Arts, and the I eachers College were removed to a row of six buildings on I street between Fifteenth and Sixteenth streets, occupied by the University, and the Division of Architecture was dropped. I he money from the sale of the University property was applied to the indebted- ness of the instituion with such results that the University was soon freed from debt and steps were taken to restore the endowment to its former figure. Under the wise and economical management of President Charles FIcrbert Stockton, Rear Admiral U. S. N., retired, the expenses of the University have been reduced to a minimum, and it is due to his efforts that the University is now on its feet. The University is now free from debt, and its income for the next five years has been fully assured. Forma) notice was served on the first of February, last year, by the Arlington Flolel Company that the I street building would be torn down to make room for a larger hotel, and must be vacated by May 1 . Shortly after it was announced that the University had leased the former home of the St. Rose Industrial School at 2023 G street N. Preparations were made to move the Department of Arts and Sciences and the Univer- sity offices during the academic term, and by granting a week of extra holiday at Easter the removal was effected so smoothly that classwork was resumed without interruption on April I 5. 1 he building has been thoroughly remodeled and renovated for college purposes, and has proved remarkably well suited to our needs. The total registration this year has exceeded thirteen hundred, and the Faculty numbers approximately two hundred. All departments of the University are well equipped to give thorough training, and the opportunities for original research cannot be surpassed. In addition to the well-stocked University Library, the student has at his command the Library of Congress, comprising more than two million volumes, and Con- gress has by special enactment made the various scientific libraries and collections of the Government open to him for special research. 18 ARTS - SCIENCE Y T. coNpavt MEMBERS OF THE FACULTY G.

The Department of Arts and Sciences S HE Department of Arts and Sciences is directly the development of the old Columbian College. Its administration is divided into five schools, the School of Graduate Studies, the Columbian College, the College of Engineering and Mechanic Arts, the College of the Political Sciences, and the Teachers College, Hitherto the President of the University has acted as Dean of the Department, but with the growth in the amount of business requiring his attention, it was this year found necessary to choose another member of the Faculty to act in this capacity. Accord- ingly, Dr. Howard Lincoln Hodgkins, Dean of the College of Engineering and Mechanic Arts, was chosen for the position, 1 he School of Graduate Studies, under the administration of Dean Charles F-dward M unroe, Ph.D., has supervision of courses in the University leading to the higher degrees. It confers in course the degrees of Master of Arts (A.M.), Master of Science (M.S.), Civil Engineer fC.E. ), Mechanical Engineer (M.E. ), Electrical Engineer (E.E. ), and Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.), The Columbian College, headed by Dean William Allen Wilbur, A.M., is the academic school, and is the representative of the old Columbian College, organized in 1821, In 1903 its name was changed to the College of Arts and Sciences, In 1912 it was again given the name of the Columbian College. It confers the undergraduate degrees of Bachelor of Arts (A.B.) and Bachelor of Science in Chemistry (B.S, m Chem.) . The College of Engineering and Mechanic Arts, headed by Dean Howard Lincoln Hodgkins, Ph, D. t offers the undergraduate engineering courses. In 1 884 this college was established in the university under the name of the Corcoran Scientific School, which was in 1 904 changed to the present name. It confers the undergraduate degrees of Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering (B.S. in C.E.), in Mechanical Engineering, (B.S. in M.E.), Electrical Engineering (B.S. m E.E,), and in Architecture (B.S, in Arch.). At the end of the present session the College of Political Sciences will be discon- tinued as a separate administrative division, but most of the work will be continued under the administrative direction of Columbian College, After many vicissitudes in the way of a building which would at the same time be comfortably large and convenient to the central part of the city, the Department is now housed in a building which is irt every way suitable. It is to be hoped that this will form the nucleus for the establishment of a campus surrounded by all of the buildings of the University, 23 G. W, U. The 1913 Cherry Tree G. W. U.

Beginning with our Freshman year when we beat the Sophs at football we have always been right there. And let it be remembered that we have excelled not only in the field of brawn but also in that of brain. We number among our members not only those who have attained distinction in football, basketball and track but we also lay claim to editors and business managers of student publications and presidents vice presidents secretaries and treasurers of numerous other student organizations. There is hardly a student activity in w r hich our class is not interested. In four years we have grown from boys and girls to men and women. We have had our share in the work and have tried faithfully to do it. We shall be meeting a far harder set of instructors out in the University of Life and there will be no make-up exams. Still we are ready to go. And now that we have attained the goal for which we have so long striven and are about to receive our long-coveted reward we feel that college days are all too short. But we know that we have formed many friendships friendships which will be lasting; and the memory of our college days will be a source of inspiration to us in the years to come when we are engaged in the more serious business of life for which we have been fitting ourselves. We have accomplished much during our brief sojourn at G. W. U and we feel that there never has been and never will be a class like 1913 — called by some The Hoodoo Class but more fitly known as The Class Who Do. 25 G. W. U. The 1913 Cherry Tree G. W. U.

One way in which we are undoubtedly ahead of any other engineering class in the country is that every man in the class already has a job. We have repre- sentatives of all branches, civil, mechanical and electrical; we have short men and tall men, single men, engaged men and married men, and we have students and men who go to college. As a class we started out bravely by defeating the Sophomores in football in our freshman year and we have kept up the pace ever since Members of our class have been prominent in all forms of student activity. We have winners of the Varsity letter, managers of the athletic teams, managers of 7 he Hatchet and CHERRY I REE, editors of The CHERRY Tree, the Senior Grand Marshall, the presidents of the Athletic Association and of the Engineering Society and other holders of student honors too numerous to mention. That we also number students among our ranks is shown by the fact that two of our members are holders of University Scholarships. Officers were elected at a meeting held in November, 1912, and the presidential honors went to H, H. Snell mg. While we have not had a great many get-togethers during the year, we meet with fair regularity, a part in the drafting room on the top floor and the other bunch in the labs, in the basement. Some of our members are eligible for the society of oldest inhabitants of the University and have carried their instruments and 1-squares from Van Ness Park via Fifteenth and H and I ? 28 I streets. We feel that the University cannot possibly get along without our guidance and most of us will be back next year for P. G. work 32 G. W. U. The 1913 Cherry Tree G. W. U.

ARTS AND SCIENCES a S a matter of principle we hate to talk about ourselves, but we cannot resist this opportunity to tell our friends and others just who, what and why we are. The University celebrated a holiday when it first caught sight of our con- tingent of illustrious eminent and eloquent consumers of canned knowledge in recogni- tion of our imperial and unimpeachable qualities. We accepted this tribute, modestly, as became us, but in full appreciation of the justness of this testimonial of appreciation and esteem. We met our first battle on the evening of our first class election. As we descended in dignity and company from the scenes of our political endeavors, we saw gathered upon the concourse outside a great multitude who waited. After the goats were sepa rated from the sheep, we advanced upon the waiting varlets with the confidence gamed by experience. With a lusty freshman war cry ,our solid phalanx burst through the throng, leaving destruction in its path. The svise went on their way rejoicing in their strength, but a few went back to view the carnage that had resulted. From these scattered few a part were gleaned by the lame and the halt after a valiant struggle, and with them a meagre celebration was held. The upperclassmen, however, showed their eminence in spreading rumors thereafter, but fair-minded persons recognized the nigger in their woodpile, and accorded honor where honor was due. The next year we demonstrated how successfully such a venture could be carried off; no more need be said regarding this exhibition of our abilities. And in the third year of our sojourn in these halls of learning we were content to take our ease and advise those of lesser eminence concerning the proper road to paths of fame. After a lean year shall always come one of prosperity. And thus it is with us. When the unlucky year of Thirteen shall have passed from our view, there shall come a richer and fuller one of Fourteen, and the University shall glow with a new light under the brilliance of our scintillating cdiance 37 w ' I IS only this year that the George Washington University reaped the benefit fSl ( of the crop composing the Class of 1914 in its endeavor to have athletics resumed at the school. In the basket-ball branch of sport the team, whose majority were members of the 1914 class, earned a name for the University with the other leading colleges in the South, and paved the way for the furtherance of other sports. I o our worthy president, James P. Nash, must be attributed the bulk of the success thus far achieved in the athletic field, for by his untiring efforts as acting manager of the basket-ball team, he gained esteem with the other colleges, who are now eager to indulge in other branches of sport with G. W. U, The writer cannot bespeak flatteringly of himself (as if he would) and of his enlonic efforts in the “athletic revival, other than that he earned his “letter in basket-ball, and yearning for next year to come around to continue in other sports which, it is hoped, will be accomplished then. Then, too, we have our athletic manager, Arnold Brand, who, by the sweat of his brow and the foaming of his mouth, boomed the athletic revival to the highest pitch. Our class has opened the gap, it now ' rests with the subsequent classes to complete what we have started 1 he writer deeply regrets that the Class Presidents 1 Association put a ban on the Upper Class dance this year, and only hopes that a precedent has not been established thereby. It is such an affair as this that earns a name for G. W U. in the public ' s eyes, but it would seem the student body thought otherwise and shunned the burden of under- taking a dance. It ' s no use crying over spilled milk, the school will linger in the students eyes only. The officers comprising the Class of 1914 consist of the following: James P. Nash, President; George A. Degenbardt, Vice-President; Louis M. Heron, Secretary- Treasurer: Thomas P. Murray, Class Editor, and Arnold Brand, Sergeant-at-Arms. In conclusion, let me thank the 1914 Class for having paved the road to success in the athletic field, and hope that the good work wnll he continued so that the name George Washington University will be known to students of all other cities 38 G.

This class, collectively and indi- vidually, possesses every accomplishment known, or unknown, to modern science. Do we hear any dissenting voices? Will that gentleman from the Hour Dawg state kindly remain standing while we elucidate a few facts, in order to show him. We really hate to talk about ourselves this way, but “facts is facts ' To cram our glorious history into 500 words reminds us too much of trying to cram a thousand pages of Bancroft or Fiske into one ' s dome the night before an examination, so we won ' t attempt it. Suffice it to remark that every member of our class has shared in the honors of the University ; that the Sophomore class has one or more representatives in every form of college activity, and in everything a Soph, participates in he towers head and shoul- ders above the rest. Just cast a furtive glance at the list of honors printed under our names on the opposite page and be convinced. Let it suffice, also, merely to mention our warm reception to the Freshmen (oh, pray let the mere mention of this suffice!); our political struggle in our class elections; our social events, and so on ad infinitum . And so we reiterate, we are “some class, “ as they say in the classics. Take some of our talents, for instance. Now there’s dancing. Can anyone deny that we — not we alone, but the whole class — are the greatest little bunch of terpsichorean trotters and twisters that ever rioted through ragtime over polished floors. Why, our series of dances this year were the stellar social events in the University, And as for puichritudinosity. Well, “pictures don ' t lie so take a look at them. And oratory! Ah, there ' s where we shine. There isn ' t a man in the class that wouldn ' t rather argue than go to a French recitation. And the subject doesn ' t conceit us, either. We ' ll argue any subject “pro and “con — most of its “con.“ We ' ll spend half an hour any time telling you that instead of ham and eggs as the breakfast food has been described for centuries, it should be known as eggs and ham, taking the part that the egg should be exalted over the ham. Any man in the class can whack away at politics, religion, policies of government, leaders in literature, the old masters, marriage, and “wot not These are only a few of our many redeeming traits, not to mention effervescent humor and brilliancy in our studies — to which some Profs, may dissent, but we haven t space to try to convince them of this fact. So, if you are convinced by this brief state- ment of facts that we are “some class we will desist. 43 m MMORTAL shades rise up and pass As names are called — the names of class — Our sophomores in swaddling clothes Of life ' s great aims — whoVe known not woes Nor rugged paths those great men trod Ere they achieved the gifts of God. They ' ve answered all the final roll But each made marks on Fame ' s great scroll: Chapman — -Albion ' s olden poet grand, Campbell— Churchman of our own dear land, Halsted — In mathematics made a name. Harsch — I was H orsha once of kingly fame, Herndon— The naval hero bravely died. Ingram- — Economist well known world-wide. James — A hundred shades here heave in sight. Jeffrey — -Lord of England and of letters bright. Kruger— From native land an exile made, Morrison — Explorer pionttr of trade, Simpson — The novelist of fair renown. Smith — T he friend of Hume, deserving crown. St. Clair — Our Army ' s chief in Nation ' s youth Woodward — Historian ever seeking truth. But Stutzman, Hafford Callahan and Teal, Must with Nickles carve their own fair weal While Marsden Meany O ' Rourke and Varney With minds as clear as fair Kitlarney Will force the Fates to yield their due Of earthly fame and fortune too. So let it be! Here ' s health to all On what we are we stand or fall. Ancestral fame ' s not worth a fig The way to get is to dig, dig dig. 44 G. W. U. The 1913 Cherry Tree G. W. U.

U matters along this line were reversed- On the 1 6th of October a never-to-be-forgotten day for many Sophs, the Freshman Class defeated the Sophomore Class in the annual rush, and after securely tying them up with their own rope, marched these self-same Sophs around town to the universal satisfaction of all concerned. Commencing as brilliantly, the class planned and carried off a most successful dance at the Raleigh Hotel, thereby sharing with the Class of 1915 the honor of being the only Freshman classes to carry off a financially successful dance. The officers themselves and the whole class managed things in a very business-like manner. Another dance, more informal, was given by the Freshman Class in the Chapel, as a means of getting better acquainted and having a good time. It was very successful and everyone seemed to have a good time. The Freshman Class is also participating in athletics. One of its members ran on the Varsity relay team and one is next year s captam of the basket ball team, while the relay team of the class defeated all comers in the race for the class relay champion- ship. Many of our members are also in the different collegiate organizations, some holding office- Probably by the time a Senior Class editor shall write a class history for us, he will have to tell of many noteworthy exploits of the Class of 191 6.

U Architecture O N 1904 Architecture was first established in George Washington University, We were given a “roost just under the roof of the “late Main Building at Fifteenth and H Streets where many long hours were spent over Beaux Arts and other problems. Here we worked to gain architectural knowledge and to put George Washington University on the A. I. A, map. One unhappy day it was reported to our worthy dean that a species of early Greek hen-fruit and scattered sections of the River Nile and Black Sea had fallen from a cloudless sky, much to the discomfiture of passersby. An investigation brought to light the coincidence that certain students were getting rid of materials used in water color and undesirable portions of lunch in a mysterious way. Shortly after this, the Architectural School removed to 813 Fifteenth Street. The new quarters, however, were not constructed substantially enough to survive the earthquakes which were frequently occurring therein, so our drawing boards and T-squares were again removed this time to 729 Fifteenth Street, Here we remained until the rent man came around when we decided that our draughting apartments were not spacious enough so an emigrant train was formed and started westward. After a long and tedious search we at last filed a homestead claim in a building on I Street, just back of the Arlington Hotel, Here we had for our own, undisturbed use an entire building from cozy little club rooms in the basement to the dark mysterious apartment known as the loft. In the latter place on occasions have been stored sundry articles such as the “Architectural Indian” (borrowed from the Medical School dis- sectiong rooms) barber poles signs and even naughty Freshmen. In this building we lived contentedly for many moons thriving and blossoming out into a most promising branch of the University, until one fine day our existence was snipped off and we were left to die. Two years elapsed ere we were again heard of by G. W, U, but here we are, proving that we could “come back. We take this opportunity to thank the local chapter of the A. I A for its help, without which Architecture would never have been reinstated in George Washington University. 57 William F.

It was established as a college of the Department of Arts and Sciences in February, 1907, and from its inception it has prospered with marked success. It is the descendant of the Department of Politics and Diplomacy, now abolished, which was closely con- nected with the Department of Law and offered post-graduate courses in international law and diplomacy. The college is intended to give a training that will fit certain students for consular and diplomatic positions, for the public service of the United States, for broad commercial life and for the study of law. At the same time it imparts to the general student that general culture and equipment necessary for efficient citizen . , and the intelligent grasp of public questions. Such courses are peculiarly appropriate in the city of Washington, which furnishes the best, and, in many cases, the only opportunity for studying the government in actual operation. The courses in the College of the Political Sciences fall into three general groups, political science and history, international law and diplomacy and economics and sociology. These courses include the theory and practice of American and foreign government, general history, international law, diplomacy, the duties of consuls, general economics, transportation, banking finance, insurance, special economic problems, trade relations and general sociology In addition to these, courses in the Columbian College are open to the students of this college. During the absence on leave during the past year of the dean, Henry Parker Willis, Ph, D,, Professor Charles William August Veditz, LL. B., Ph. D., has acted in his stead. Dr. Veditz has been prominent in the economic activities of the government in regard to the settlement of disputes between the eastern and central railroads of the United States and their employes. The College of the Political Sciences confers the undergraduate degree of Bachelor of Arts (A. B). 1 he university confers for post-graduate work in this college the degrees of Master of Arts (A. M.), Master of Diplomacy (M. Dip.), ard Doctor of Philosophy (Ph. D.). — — 62 — G. W. U. The 1913 Cherry Tree G. W. U. Political Science Roll Azro Lucjen Barber New York Frederick Franklin Seller .

It aims to promote the knowledge of educational science to fit students for the higher positions in the public school service to secure to teaching the rights and prerogatives of a profession and to aid in raising the standards of educational practice and so to increase the efficiency of public education 1 he University Catalogue says in speaking of this college: “In order to combine to the best advantage a general college education with adequate professional training for teaching, the Teachers College provides a four-years college course, the first two years of which are devoted to a foundation of general culture courses and the last two to the professional courses and to specialization in the subjects which the student expects to teach, “Inasmuch as a large number of teachers in service are without college degrees and a still larger number desire to supplement their professional training by taking special courses the courses of instruction have been arranged to meet the needs of teachers in service as well as of undergraduate students 1 he required courses constituting the prescribed work in education are given both in the morning and in the late afternoon hours and are therefore easily accessible both to students and to teachers from the schools.” The Teachers College had its inception in the District School Act of 1906 which provided that the applicants for positions in the public schools should have a proficiency in the history and principles of education. The death during the past year of the able and efficient dean, Williston Samuel Hough made necessary the choice of a new dean and William Carl Ruediger Pro- fessor of Educational Psychology ' in the George Washington University was chosen to fill this position. Dr. Ruediger besides his able work on the Faculty, has been active in other lines of university endeavor being chairman of the Committee on Student Organi- zations, The 1 eachers College confers the undergraduate degree of Bachelor of Arts (A B.) and a teacher’s diploma. 66 G.

W. U. The 1913 Cherry Tree G. W. U The Department of Law HE inception of the Law School dates from the year 1826, when it wa organized with the Hon. William Cranch, Chief Justice of the Circuit Court of the United States, at its head. Owing to the too ambitious schemes of its founders, however, it early became involved in financial difficulties and was obliged to discontinue its courses until it was re-established in 1 865, Its course of instruction for the degree of Bachelor of Laws, originally requiring but two years, as was then the practice of all law schools, was gradually expanded, until, in 1 898, in accordance with the recommendation of the American Bar Associ- ation, it was increased to three years, T he faculty has also shown a gradual increase in numbers commensurate with the expansion of the course, and the growing number of students m attendance Beginning with 1903, the Board of Trustees adopted the policy of placing most of the important topics of substantive law under the charge of trained professional teachers giving their w ' hole time to the work of legal instruction Those branches of law connected with practice will continue to be under the charge of professors who are actively engaged in the administration of the law either at the bar or on the bench. In 1877 a year of graduate work leading to the degree of Master of Laws was added to the course of instruction offered. A special course in Patent Law was added in I 895 In 1900 the Law- Department was one of the group of law schools which organized the Association of American Law ' Schools, and it has remained a member of this association since that time This association includes forty-three of the best and most progressive Iaw r schools of the country and is committed to the policy of advancement in legal education. I he Law School is the oldest in the District of Columbia, and the only local school which is a member of the American Association of Law Schools above men- tioned Charles Noble Gregory, A, M., LL.

Minnesota - 80 = B j ' l N the fall of 1911 when the class of 1914 first made its appearance at our Law School doubtless each professor who then made its acquaintance little thought that it was m any way unusual or in any respect greatly different from classes he had previously guided through the intricacies and perplexing problems of his special subject of the law. The members as of previous classes came to our School from the various sections of the United States and many countries of the world most of them being college men and many of them having one or more degrees from our leading universities. As the year progressed however the work done by the class was — as each member of the Faculty who had the opportunity of knowing will testify — of such a uniformly high grade the strength and ingenuity with which the class attacked the difficult legal problems were so marked as easily to place the class in the first rank of all the classes in the history of our Law School This reputation survived of course the summer vacation and the vigor with which the class in the fall of 1912 applied their renewed energies and the continued good work done throughout the present school year have been such as to augur well for the establishment of a record of attain- ment as a class not only while in school but in the business world in after years If the class does good w T ork the members of the class must individually be strong men and glancing over the class roll even those having the most intimate knowledge would have difficulty in picking out a single one of whom it could be said that he has not the possibility of attainment of position of highest rank in the legal or some allied profession. In fact many of our class even now fill positions of importance in official and business life. It is thus seen to be impossible to make with any degree of fairness any selection from the class of members worthy of mention above their fellows for their special ability. While of course there are many qualities and capabilities displayed by different members of our class worthy of our consideration in this connection yet lest the reader forget that we are holding up our few failings — the greatest have their faults — and that the class really bears promise of sending representatives of our School to fill the highest positions in our land and elsewhere we shall close with the respectful request that notice be given to the names on our roll that he may remember in after years when this prophecy has become a realization. The names are quite generally old honored and respected in this country and abroad and the writer feels sure that the individual mem- bers of the class of 1914 will go forth from this University to work out a name and fame that will in no way reflect discredit upon our Alma Mater, and such as the class will be proud to record upon its annals. Here’s to the success of the Class of 1914. ■ 81 = G. W. U. The 1913 Cherry Tree G. W. U. Junior Law Harold Knowles Acker, 3 X, P A . . .

The 1913 Cherry Tree G. W. U. The Department of Medicine was known as the National Medical College; subsequently as the Department of Medicine of the Columbian University; When first established, and for many years thereafter, this school, like most others in this country, gave only a two years course of five months each. In 1878 this course was lengthened by the establishment of a spring session devoted to lectures in certain special subjects. In 1879 the course was lengthened to seven months and attendance upon three annual sessions required, and in 1893 attendance on four annual courses was made obligatory upon all candidates for the degree of Doctor of Medicine. In order to increase the facilities for actual bedside teaching, the University Hospital and the University Dispensary were established in 1 898 and made a part of the Department of Medicine. In 1 902 the old Medical College, in which the exercises had been held since I 867, gave place to the present large and commodious structure. The Department of Medicine now consists of the three essentials to a modern medical school, namely, the Medical School proper, with its laboratories, lecture rooms, library, museum, etc., the University Hospital, and the University Dispensary. These three are all completely correlated and administered according to the most modern and approved methods for the government of medical colleges. The Medical Department of the University has been for several years a member of the Association of American Medical Colleges. It is one of the medical colleges designated as “Class A, by the American Medical Association, and it is accredited for al! its work by the Combined (Royal) Medical Examining Boards in England. These facts guar antee the character of the work done by the college and insures its students and graduates all the advantages which accrue from such association and recognition. HE DEPARTMENT OF MEDICINE, in the chronological order of establishment, is the seventeenth medical school in the United States. The first course of lectures began in March, 1825. For many years the school 94 tl ntfe Pb 11 lf pl}| JL.rauTtP- =7! 1 B ENTER upon the stage in the first act of this marvelous drama, dramatis personae of a modern Herodatus, whose mission it is to delineate the virtues, the wisdom and omnipotent power of the greatest class that ever passed its time (not examinations) at a university. But I fear that in my modesty I shall fail to pay honor to whom honor is due. With that feeling I experience the same emotion that the Hindoo does when he bows before his idol, “I feel that thou art ugly, but I know that thou art great ’ The story runs thus; — In September of 1909 the King, dissatisfied with the guests at his feast, gave orders to his trusted steward that he go forth into the by-ways and hedges and gather in the lame the halt and the blind. The steward departed on his sacred duty, and anon the wide halls rang with the ancient song, Hail, hail, the gang’s all here; what the hail do we care,” and they were decked in white robes and led to the banquet hall where the tables groaned under the flesh of the fatted blacks. And it was now that they chose a leader whose name was Stout, a thin man, who at once conveyed to them the necessity of purchasing a Gray s Anatomy — Imperial Octavo, 1,259 pages, price seven “bones” ! — (directing them to his bookstore below), assuring them this would make wise the simple. At this they became afraid and there was exophthalmia with a rapid infiltration of polymorphous ideas into the cerebral cortex and they saw visions that disturbed their electronic equilibrium of the nervi ergentes. But they became nevertheless expert physiologists; why they could count the red cor- puscles in the web of a frog’s foot and Stout could even tel! the pond where the tadpole was hatched, while Henneberger could argue convincingly on Why doesn’t the stomach digest itself ' And when the grandchildren of this Senior Class shall enter the Medical School of George Washington University, they will be reminded that they owe their gratitude to the Class of l9l3, the Joshua of its time. And so the nigh t rolled on, with many a jag who lay in the corner with satisfied air. Each had done his best to honor the bounty of the King’s tables. Rosy-fingered Dawn, from her bed in the East, arose,” and, lo, they stood disconsolate with bended head and anxious air, awaiting the word of the King as to whether they had paid honor to whom honor is due, 95 G.

District of Columbia 97 MEDICAL JUNiORS HEN our class of twenty-five entered upon the medical course in the fall of 1910 it was as though we had stepped into a foreign land; our struggles with the new v ocabulary during the first month are never to be forgotten. Then our view began to widen as we were able to give attention to ideas rather than words, and as we worked out the gross mechanism of the body and differentiated by aid of the microscope its marvelous minute structure. The second year ' s work extended our professional vision still further, especially through the study of bacteriology, during which we saw with our own eyes the minute organisms that cause such ravages when they gain a foothold in the human body, as in diphtheria, typhoid fever, tuberculosis, bubonic plague, cholera, leprosy, and others. We watched the growth of these and other micro-organisms and acquired a deep respect for them and a sense of the tremendous power in the united activities of these minute vegetable cells. We were constrained to believe in the bacterial theory of the cause of disease, about which in our pre-school days we had heard rumors, and while half believ- ing, half doubted. The widening vision brought by our course during the past year, our third, has been of a different sort. We have attended clinics at five of our great hospitals, where we have been called Doctor by the clinicians, nurses, and patients, and where we have come in contact with disease. We have been impressed with the large number of people suffering from a great variety of ailments; and our growing ability to aid our fellow- beings has awakened in us a new sense of our usefulness in the world. We have helped set fractured bones, have aided in searching out the causes of discomfort and distress, and have been instructed in the methods of relieving these conditions. We have dealt with the secret things of life as never before; it is as though a screen had been with- drawn from before us that we might see things as they are. We begin to feel as though w r e are a part of the great profession of physicians. In closing we desire to perpetuate in the annals of the Medical Department the following comment of one of our instructors; “I have not seen such a likely bunch of fellows in our school in many a day, It is scarcely believable that any class for years to come will have the face to seek to rise above this reputation of the Class of 1914. , 99 _ G.

Nearly every man who was in our class last year returned in the fall We also have a number of men who, being attracted by the high standing of the George Washington University and the splendid advantages offered one for obtaining a medical education in Washington, came here from other schools It was with great pleasure that we welcomed these newcomers into our midst. Our class at present numbers twenty-one, and it is made up of all manner of men, from the sedate married to mere “babes in arms We held our first class meeting early in the fall at which w F e elected the following officers: President, F. Y. Donn : Vice President, J. C. Bradley: Secretary, P. S- Putzki; Treasurer, F. T. Chamberlain, Jr,: Class Editor, J. A. Rowlson. I might say that as yet we have had no use for a Treasurer judging by the results of our mid-year exams, the same old bunch that has been together for the past two years will be right together at the finish, and we will be boosting for the George Washington University all the time. 103 UNIVERSITY DISPENSARY MEDICAL FRESHMEN HE Freshmen Medical Class of the George Washington University is, this year, the largest that has entered the institution in many years. There are forty-six men enrolled, representing fifteen States, and several are from other countries. After the opening of the University we lost no time getting down to work under the direction of Professor Kollig in Histology and Anatomy, and Dr. Hornaday in Chem- istry. The first day in the dissecting room was one that will long be remembered by all our men. In October we held our first meeting as a class and elected the following to office: President, Mr. T. H. McNally; Vice President, Mr. J. T. Quirk; Secretary, Mr. Sidney Cousins; Treasurer, Mr. E. K, Stratton. In one of the later meetings j. -A. Tilton, Jr., was elected class editor and the honor system was adopted and has been used in our examinations. In the first part of February we had our final examination in Histology. A few days later a fire, which did great damage to the histological laboratory, occasioned some slight irregularity in our class proceedings and we gave our attention, while repairs were being made, to anatomy. The class is now looking forward to the approaching final examinations, to demon- strate to our professors that we have mastered our subjects and are fully prepared to go on, and come back next year, sophomores. 105 G.

Senior Nurses HIS is a continuation of our last year’s history, which left us in the nursery. i Better far could we have remained there longer, but “whither hurried hence ' jjiPH we reached by successive stages, and through numerous trials and agonies the positions of ward superior, night supervisor, and at last the final bourne — the Operating Room — where the two most abused words are “technic ' and “sterility, 1 ‘ and where one works until brain and body become mere machines. But we are cheered by the thought of examinations successfully passed, and Graduation Day so near. Many good times have we had together — this small class of ours. The fun we had at Casualty- — suppers in the Board Room, frolics in the Emergency Room, and early morning walks, to say nothing of those trips down the river chaperoned by our indulgent superintendent. Here we have had perfectly good feasts in our rooms, theatre parties, and dances. Through these three years we seven have stood together and ours is a mutual love understood and prized by all. As each one is cast upon the wide world we celebrate, and this is our toast: Here ' s to the class of 1 and 3, Whose ambition shall ever be To live in a flat complete. To stick together Through all sorts of weather. And always be merry and free. 109 G. W. U. T h e 1913 Cherry Tree G. W. U. Senior Nurses Miss M. W.

Sophomore Nurses are beginning to believe that the hospital cannot possibly exist without us. Then, too, the basement is always full of Freshmen, whom it is our duty to instruct in the paths of righteousness and rectitude. Last year we were acquiring the professional air; this year it is our task to teach others. Already we are beginning to prepare for the Operat- ing Room; passing towels for sponges and trembling at every request for fear of not knowing what is asked for. Our motto is: “So nurse, that when thy summons shall come to pass the innumerable instruments in the Operating Room, thou act not like an awkward country jay, faltering and blun- dering but encouraged and coaxed by the unfailing interne, thou handle the instruments as one who knows the instruments used to cut Eve out of Adam’s rib ’ -fe.

U � Freshman Nurses HE Class of 1915 entered the George Washington University Hospital in mid-winter of 1912. The first weeks were strange ones, with new lessons to learn which we thought we already knew, such as dusting, sweeping and scrubbing. We were almost ready to give up in dispair. But we had been taught “things worth while are things worth striving for. So we remain, hoping to realize the great truth. Out of twenty-five girls who entered, nine gave up in despair. But no, one out of the nine did not. She, intrepid soul, ventured into the matrimonial stream. At first we were quite wise, and could do almost anything, from diagnosing dis- eases to filling ice-caps. But we were not to remain long in this blissful state. As the weeks advanced into months, we came to realize our inadequate knowledge of hospital duties. And now we are the humble, obedient Juniors. This is our first year with you ; treat us kindly. Some day we may be Seniors. 115 G. W. U. The 1913 Cherry Tree G. W. U. Freshman Nurses Roll % Ebra Anderson , .

The Department of Dentistry HE DENIAL SCHOOL was established in November, 1887, under the tide of the Columbian University Dental Department, With the change of the name of the university in 1 904, the Dental School was designated as the Department of Dentistry of the George Washington University. The course of instruction originally extended over two years of five months each. With the general growing need for more complete instruction, however, the George Washington University, in common with other schools, increased the terms to seven months. This additional time still being found inadequate to keep pace with the evti ■ increasing demand for higher dental education, the course was gradually extended until now it extends over three years of eight months each. I he number of students registered in the Dental School is steadily growing, and this year it was but a little less than seventy. It should within three years exceed the century mark. 1 he Dental School has graduated some of the most prominent dentists in the city. The faculty includes many of the leading practitioners of the city. The student has at his disposal, besides the well selected library of the university, the unrivaled resources of the Library of Congress and of the Library of the Surgeon-General of the Army, The latter library is the finest medical library in the world. The dean, John Roland Walton. D. D. S, s is a leading dentist of the city. The Department of Dentistry confers the degree of Doctor of Dental Surgery (D. D. S. J for the completion of the prescribed course. 120 HE Class of 1913 started on the three-lap course with twenty-four breasting the tape ready for the starter ' s “Go. During the first heat nine failed to finish, some of whom were left at the post, the balance of the field finishing pretty well in a bunch. The second heat three did not enter and one new nag came in. But one was left in the “also-ran class in this heat and one decided to make the race in four heats instead of three because of heavy-going outside of school — -a very wise course as is evidenced by his higher grades. Still while he will not graduate with the bunch the Class of 1913 claim him among themselves. On the day the flag dropped for the last heat no false starts were made, but the twelve old nags and one new one Mme. Brodsky, making the lucky thirteen, were off in a bunch. It has been a clean race w r ith but little fouling or crowding. The pace has been fast and the going heavy, but there has been no faltering. No whip or spur has been used and the most perfect good humor good fellowship and mutual esteem has existed between the riders and ridden. The thirteen members of the Class of 1913 have been proud of themselves of their thirteen instructors and of their school. The class has not entered into any social functions, has given no banquets has had no internal dissensions, but has done a lot of hard work in the performance of which the class has stood shoulder to shoulder the speedier ones giving a willing, help- ing hand to the slower and as a consequence there is the heartiest good-w ' ill existing each for the other. We pride ourselves that we can look back over our three years course of instruction as a class and as individuals and see no spot or blemish. We can see nothing of which we are ashamed. We have fought the good fight and are confident of winning. There has been no disposition to see how little but rather how much each could do. When the days have been dark and the feeling that we could not stand the strain longer, a few words or chance remarks of an instructor made us feel that we still had plenty of ginger and reserve strength to go on. The class is deeply appreciative of every effort and they have been many our instructors have put forth in our behalf. We have felt that we were in their confi- dence that they appreciated our work, and they have shown us many kindnesses not down in the course. They had something we wanted knowledge and experience and of this they have given willingly, freely. We will not attempt here to express our appreciation of nor our thanks for the patience forbearance and earnest cooperation of our instructors but hope they will remember the Class of 1913 with as much kindliness as the class will them. “You shall see them on a beautiful quarto-page where a neat rivulet of text shall meander through a meadow of margin,” — Sheridan. 121 G.

The Junior year started off this year twenty strong, and I do believe that we can still boast of this number in the ring and out of jaih To be frank I think it would be interesting if it was possible to search the police blotters in the home cities from whence cur class hails; but unfortunately the blotters are closely guarded and nothing short of a suffragette badge would pave the way to these treasures The opening of the term was heralded with the usual hearty handshakes and good-wishes, and in fact everything started off nice and serene with all things quiet along the banks of the Potomac, except the noise of the Freshies in the adjoining laboratory, which was a mixture of the many sounds of tin-horns, animals and birds, and frequently sounded like a bunch of jackasses, hull-mooses, hyenas, panthers and wolves all intermingled, but they have cooled down since the midyear exams have passed, and believe me they will be as cool as a cucumber after the final is dished out to them in what is termed broken doses. Ours may not be the finest class that has ever come down this educational pike, but we are morally sure that it is the only class of its particular kind; it is a class in, with, and by itself, so to speak, that is to say the Seniors won ' t let us mix with them for fear some of us might outshine them in polishing a plate or something of the kind, and we are so far above the Sophs and Freshies there is no comparison. There has been some little friendly speculation as to who will be the honor man of the class this year, but there is no bitter rivalry over the matter, and personally it does not worry me a little bit The truth is I believe that there is closer fraternal spirit ex- isting in our class today than ever before, and I believe there is no reason for a change I comfort myself with the old Texas Latin quotation; “Poleus longissimus fcraocfcus pcmmoncs largksimus” 127 FRESHMAN DENTAL EPTEMBER 25, 1912, on the good ship “George W,,” two young ladies and twenty young men set sail, driven by the winds of ambition, on a tempest- uous three-year cruise; with a determination to make the most of the trip and stick by the ship, they hope to reach port in schedule time with many pleasant recollections of the voyage. The desire to organize soon manifested itself, and the first class meeting was held on October 5, 1912, After some discussion and an informal introduction, the following officers were elected; President, josiah L. Carr, of Texas; Vice President, Miss Golda Mmkin, of the District of Columbia; Secretary, Arthur FT Hall, of Connecticut; Treasurer, James G. Thompson, of the District of Columbia; Class Editor for the CHERRY Tree, Griffin G. Frazier, of the District of Columbia, and Class Editor for the Hatchet, Carl W. Walzl, of Pennsylvania. Our class was invited to attend a smoker by the Psi Omega Dental Fraternity on November 2, (912. Several speeches were made by members of the faculty as well as by members of that worthy fraternity, after which we all enjoyed some music, both vocal and instrumental. Oh, you feed! On December 7, 1912, the class had a smoker which, through the efforts of Messrs. Slack and Hall, proved a great success. Piano and violin numbers were rendered by members of the class.

A period covering three years has been spent at the University College of Pharmacy, filled with many pleasant reminiscences, but mostly made up of hard study, and everybody is glad the steady grind is over. The first year was marked by a very enjoyable banquet held at Freund ' s, during the Chritsmas holidays. The banquet given by the class, with the faculty as guests, was successful in every way. Some interesting discussions on both the ethical and com- mercial sides of the profession brought zest into the evening and also opened the eyes of us embryo pharmacists. The closing of the term brought about a precedent at the University College of Pharmacy in the organization of that well-known Curbstone Indignation Meet, which gave rise to the well-attended Banking Parties, which made the summer of 1911 famous. It might be mentioned here that Whit organized the Banking Party, but is thankful to say he was never obliged to attend. Junior year brought together a class of young pharmacists full of expectation and boastfulness over success of the previous year, hut this had its bad feature in the fact it crowded out all energy for study purposes, and at the close of the session found the fellows cramming on the last few days of preparation for the final exams. During the year the class had pins made with a big “ ! 3 on them. Everyone, of course, expected to go through the ordeal in the specified time — and everyone did. The third and final year at college will be one long to be remembered by everyone in the class. One good feature of the class was the manner in which it held together on all subjects. The Christmas exams, showed that all were going at a smooth gait, and toward the end of the year a banquet was planned which was to initiate something new in this line. A banquet where all three classes could participate was given at the Raleigh and was the most successful affair of its kind ever given by the college. I he faculty were made the guests of the students. Representing the Senior class on the committee were Mr. W. H. Whittlesey, Jr., chairman; Mr. D. L. Maxwell, treasurer, and Mr. C. W. Barker. Mr. W, A. Stevens and Mr, H. Kenner represented the Junior and Freshman classes respectively. 134 G. W. U. The 1913 Cherry Tree G. W. U. Senior Pharmacy Charles W.

The day and the hour had come to bid farewell to High School. We were at last starting up the gradual incline which at present we are in part hoping will terminate at the coveted goal of a registered pharmacist, while probably a small per cent, of us will, when the time comes to roll up our sheepskin, be botanists or chemists, as the case may be. Just what degree of these professions we end in will be decided by the way in which we apply ourselves to work and study at the present time. Despite the stormy weather and the clouds outside, three young ladies and twenty- five young men, with bright faces and determined minds, filed into the assembly halls of that historic structure on I Street, the National College of Pharmacy. Upon registering we were conducted into the lecture hall. After a preliminary introduction to college life and things touched upon that would be required of us in the future, the lecture began. How we listened with every nerve strung to a high tension, as the professors of chemistry proceeded to unveil the basic phenomena of that study, which play a very large part in the pharmacist ' s life, is not to be detailed here. The chemical laboratory formed great food for Freshies” who previously had had some training in the nomenclature of symbolic formulae to display their knowledge. Anyway a big head is far better than a shriveled brain. It was a month after the start of the session before the class organized and elected officers. Even then progress was slow, partly due to the fact that this was the first occasion the officers had had for experience along parliamentary lines. The worthy gentleman from Tennessee we chose for president became dissatisfied with class work, the District of Columbia (also Georgetown), including numerous other things, and vanished from the university, taking his departure to regions as yet unknown. Consequently, we drifted on without a rudder till the latter part of February, At this stage of the game it was thought by all that it was time for this dormant class to arouse and elect a new president. It was done without delay and in good order. We believe the choice was an excellent one. Our new leader has been executing the presi- dential duties with the utmost sagacity. Did you ever notice on a rainy day, probably standing in the street waiting for a street car, a dignified personage, quietly puffing a cigar, apparently enjoying life) As the rain trickled from his umbrella a less fortunate individual stands directly behind him in the crowded street. Not having the much needed umbrella, he only received the drippings from the umbrella in front. That is just the Freshman Class. We only received the drippings of someone ' s umbrella who is just before us. However, we shall some day hold the umbrella ourselves. = . 139 — G. W. U. The 1913 Cherry Tree G. W. U.

Department of Veterinary Medicine HE principal feature of the session of 1912-13 was the inauguration of a four- year course. There are no night schools and only one day school at present giving a four-year course in Veterinary Medicine. A comparatively small but select Freshman ( lass had the honor of initiating this radical step and there is every reason to believe that it will meet with unqualified success, A well-equipped veterinary hospital, together with up-to-date laboratories and a very capable teaching staff of twenty seven, afford the students facilities for perfecting themselves in this line of medicine that may be equalled elsewhere but are not excelled. This Department, the youngest in the University, has at present a very wide field of usefulness. It remains for its graduates, both past and future, to extend its sphere of endeavor, because in spite of its rapid advancement during the past few years, much remains to be accomplished. As instances of the high standing of the Veterinary School, its graduates are eligible to compete in examinations for entrance to the United States Army and the De- partment of Agriculture. Membership in the American Veterinary Medical Associa- tion is also open to them. The further fact that it is one of the few Veterinary Schools registered by the New York State Board of Education, speaks eloquently of its excel- lence and worth. 1 G. W. U. The 1913 Cherry Tree G.

Instructor in Veterinary Anatomy = 143 = s cniors HE Class of 1913 had the honor of being the third class to matriculate at the College of Veterinary Medicine. In other words we were the first class in the history of the school to have a Senior and Junior class to “lord it over us. owever, although small in numbers compared with the preceding classes we at once proceeded to show them that “we were there with the goods and come to stay. They then left us severely alone. After getting our bearings we settled down fo elect class officers. Strange to say none of those selected for those honors are with us today. Chadwick, Martin and Littleford dropped out during that strenuous first year; others who left us to our fate at the end of the first year were Arche and Doyle, the former returning to his home in Porto Rico and the latter departing for the Pacific Coast to continue his studies at the San Francisco Veterinary College. We saw these hoys depart with great regret as our association with them had bound us together in the bonds of friendship and good ' fellowship. Going down the home stretch, as we are at the present time we are glad to be able to say that our hardships (and it is a hardship to attend class at night after a hard day’s work such as many of us do) have been allayed with many pleasurable incidents that none of us are apt to forget. Our annual Association banquets of which the third and last was the best by far, were for us delightful moments when we sat around tables laden with tempting dishes and listened in rapture to those who had made themselves promi- nent in our chosen profession telling of the great work that lay before us and urging us to put forth our best efforts to qualify for that work Then it was that we had a reali- zation of the reward that comes to those who are willing to sacrifice the leisure and pleasures of a life of ease for the drudgery of a night course. We are looking forward to final examination and after that commencement. Each is hoping that June I 1th will find the others there to receive the highest honors of this branch of the University. Of the loyalty of the members of the class to their Alma Mater and to each other, there can be no doubt and we are confident the on revoir spoken on Commencement Day will be merely an incident in the friendship started in 1910. which we are sure will last forever and a day. Godspeed the Class of 1913. 144 G. W. U. The 1913 Cherry Tree G. W. U. Senior Veterinary ❖ Jacob E. Behney Treasurer Vet. Med. Assn. 1910 Tl Jake ' s” nativity is easily diagnosed from bis talk. His position of interne during the past few years has made him an expert practitioner. He finds A recoline 1 of great assistance in treating equine colic, and has won the respect if not the love of his canine patients by his liberal dispensing of club sandwiches. Norman Chandler Craig, QT2 Craig was born September 6, 1888, at Chester, Fa. After spending two years at I J enn. he heard we had a real veterinary school here and made haste to join us. He is without a peer in anaesthetizing horses, and has some new wrinkles on canine restraint. On account of his size he says he will specialize in humming bird practice. George H. Gillette Secretary Vet. Med. Assn, idit-lri Class Secretary 1910-T1 T2-T3 Gillette was born in Iowa, but migrated to Kansas at an early age. Although he ex- pects to be a practitioner, he seems to take great interest in horses” and is very fond of attending clinics at Laurel and Pimlico. Black cats are the bane of his life. Modest and unassuming, Gillette is easily one of the most popular men in the class, as well as one of the most capable, Ernest George Hargett C lass Vice-President 1911-T2 Some twenty odd years back, Hargett was born in North Carolina. He joined the ranks of the Benedicts while a Freshman, but did not allow a little thing like that to interfere with his studies. He is of a quiet disposition, which is particularly noticeable during quiz periods. Lately he has made quite a record collecting parasites at Benning and diagnos- ing warts. William Anson Hooker, $ k B, S. Mass. Agricultural College; President Vet. Med. Assn. 1912-T3; Vice-President Vet, Med. Assn. 1911-12 Hooker is a native of Massachusetts, After collecting and classifying all the insects in the t T , S., he spends most of his time now writing all the mean things he knows about them. The honors” he has won bear testimony to his popularity and worth. 145 G. W. U. The 1913 Cherry Tree G. VV. U. Senior Veterinary ❖ Fred W. Lambert C lass Treasurer 1912-13 Lambert was born at New Windsor, Md, ( March 29, 1889, While a freshman he de- voted much time io inorganic chemistry and wrote several (note) books on the subject.

Julius Edward Morcgck J ulius first saw the light of day under the sunny skies of Georgia and has been happy ever since. He is one of the class Benedicts and has laiely been noticed taking great interest in perambulators as a means of locomotion. He delights in heated discus- sions of matters financial and derives great pleasure from disbursing the Association funds with the one hand and conserving Ihose of the class with the other. James Buchanan Nicol Class Vice-President 1911-12; ( lass Sergeant -at -Anns 1912 13 Nick was born at Lexington, Va,, January 19, 1890.

A most motly herd were they, begging guidance along the thorny road to wisdom, content for another nine lean months to sit at the knees of the high priests and sop up the Sacred Bhull propounded to them; yea, verily to learn the magic art to make cures on the sweenied and the spavined and to wax fat on the pittance of the common multitude. Lo, far into the night did these youths for many moons plug and bone and seek understanding till verily their eyes did bulge like unto a goggly frog; yea, e ' en as a boogy man’s eyes do bulge, and till the crow of the cock, heralding the new dawn, did they delve into the teachings; yet, well. And they all received much blessing from the High Priest, Oha Ra, who spake tremulous words of praise ; and it came to pass that a great heydey arose at the shrine of the Sacred Bhull as one waxed wroth, he from among the number of the older devotees. And he did betake him polluted warb lings to the temple of the Most High Priest, crying, “See we no virtue in the brain skulls of the Jhunyur Klan, e ' en the High Priest bestoweth praises upon these unworthies, ” and straightway the Most High Priest did pluck {Cataracts of ego from the eye of the lamentor and sent him forth rejoicing that he could see the beauties and purity of the Jhunyur Klan, Yea s verily so. And now in the moon in which these writings are scribed there comes discord among the Jhunyur Klan, for it comes to pass that the High Priest, Lhe Kompte, sacred keeper of the deadly Bhugs, gives tidings of the great calamity that will come to pass, prophe- sying dire things, till at length when the moon rides high and the planet of the dog is in the ascendant, comes the gathering of the Klan to make quiz for the Mighty Wind, Yea, verily, the midnight oil doth burn and there comes visions of multitudinous Bhugs and other signs of the sacred screed of the Bhull. And none find rest nor sanctuary from the Big Wind. 147 JUNIOR VETERINARY G- W. U. The 1913 Cherry Tree G. W. U. Junior Veterinary And ere these words are writ there did come the Big Wind and the bones of the Jhunyur Klan did shake like peas in the dried pod, and they waxed sore afraid and filled with dread forebodings. And now the Wind has passed o’er, and all who felt of its inexorable breath do cringe and the High Priest of the Bhugs telleth no words of salve, and all the Klan is dumb; yea, like unto the Bhugs, the Klan does seem Bhugs. And it comes to pass that the Klan is on the last half of its journey, diminishing not but adding to its number two misled and badly bruised brothers, Hare and Lunzdhen, and the caravan pushes forward performing wonders, covering itself with glory, and giving Alma Mater cause for much rejoicing thereat. They fear not the end, for their tents will be pitched far above the sands of the Big Winds and will there remain, yea, and take toll of all the multitude of suckherrs that pass the way of their oasis of the Sacred Bhull. Verily, all the multitude doth bump their skulls to the Sacred Bhull, which cures the sweenied and the spavined and yea likewise doth the youth of the Jhunyur Klan bump their beans, for doth they not have understanding that the lesser beasts of the earth shall be their lawful prey and upon them shall they work their magic? Yea, e ' en though the beast may die and yield up his ghost shall they practice till all wax fat and gain wives and lands and other things from the magic working of the screed of the Sacred Bhull. Yea, these writings are and shall he as they are writ. Yea, verily 149 - ) ARTING as we did on our trip through four years of study and hard work we don’t seem to have made much history in so short a time, although we got together and organized our class, electing such men to office as we deemed capable in every particular for the respective positions, in the person of H, H. Brown, president, and H. J. Biondi, secretary and treasurer. We are only a very small class, but I think we have as good material as is found in any college. We know the high standard being set for veterinarians and we are striving to that end, and not only to finish but to be able to cope with the best of our profession. Our mottO““Qua!ity not Quantity 1 — I think, will stand throughout the four years to come. We have been discouraged time and time again only to find ourselves again “pend- ing over our studies, and again coming out victorious with our obstructions forgotten. We are a very cosmopolitan class, there being six States and the District of Colum- bia represented among our ranks. And as to good-fellowship we have never seen any better fellowship exist in any class of young men, who seem to have been cast together from every way the wind blows, every member being willing to help the other, and every man getting in his joke without fail every time we meet. We are not predicting any world beaters in our little class, but we do say “Look out for this class of 1 9 I 6!” We are doing what no other class in this Department ever had the opportunity of doing, taking a four years’ course which previously only require d three. It seems a very hard thing to do, but our dear old Alma Mater knows what is best for us and we are perfectly willing to abide by everything which is done by them without even the slightest criticism. And we know our worthy Faculty is working hard for us, and we are striving to help them because it is “team work” we want. Well, here’s to our Alma Mater and the Class of 1916, 151 G. W. U.

W. U. The 1913 Cherry Tree G. W. U. Delta Sigma Rho (Debating Honor Fraternity) Frank Rumer Jeffrey President Harvey Cleveland Bickel Secretary-Treasurer Maurice Cohf.n Historian r FIE DELTA SIGMA RHO is a national debating honor fraternity which had its inception at the University ol Minnesota in 1904. It has since grown to a remarkable extent both in the number of colleges represented and in its im- portance in every college in which it has a chapter. Among the universities which have chapters in the Delta Sigma Rho are included the largest eastern universities, such as Harvard, Yale, Columbia, Pennsylvania, and Dartmouth. The west is represented by its most prominent universities, including Wisconsin, Chicago, Illinois, Iowa State, Michigan, and Minnesota. Among the southern universities George Washington and Virginia stand out as the most prominent. 1 he George Washington Chapter was chartered May I, 1908, at the time when the University was at the height of its success in intercollegiate debating. It has since been a flourishing and prominent college institution, giving added impetus to intercollegiate debating. The prospect of membership in such a strong national fraternity and the honor of being admitted to it have been a powerful incentive in inducing men to be active in debating who might not otherwise have become interested. Among the suc- cessful George Washington Alumni who are members of the Delta Sigma Rho are Alvin Newmyer (LL.B., 1906), David A. Baer (A.B., 1910; LL.B., 1912), James W. Berry (A.B., 1 909 ; LL.B., 1911), and E. Otto Schreiber (B.A., 1910; LLB., 1912), all practicing attorneys in this city ; E. Percy GaLcs (A.B,, 1908; LL.B., 1910), Field Secretary, Christian Endeavor, State of Illinois; John T. Kennedy, LL.B., 1907), Instructor in Law, Washington Y, M. C, A.: Norris Bowen, Clerk of the Court of Alexandria County, Virginia; and William C. VanVleck (A.B., 1908; LL.B., 191 I), Secretary, Department of Law and Instructor m Law in the University. 1 he continued success of the local chapter is assured by the renewed activity of the University in intercollegiate debating. All the members of this year ' s team who will represent the University in the Washington and Lee debate become eligible for member- ship in the fraternity. While participation in intercollegiate forensic contests is a pre- requisite for admission intercollegiate debaters do not ipso facto become members of the fraternity. Their merits and their contribution to the development of debating in the University are also given consideration before they are accorded this honor. The fraternity desires to express its sincere sorrow at the untimely death of Walter England Calley, a member of last year ' s intercollegiate team. 194 G. W. U. The 19 13 Cherry Tree G. W. U.

Hamlin, Captain Malcolm Gordon Slarrow, Manager sstsfanf Managers Samuel Melton Barrett Russell D. Tibbetts Julian W, Cunningham HE recommendation of the previous man- agement that Mr. M. G. Slarrow be elected manager for the year was ap- proved by the Faculty Committee last spring, and Mr. Slarrow took charge immediately in the fall. After the athletic meeting held in the Medical building m the fall, a meeting of the W” men was held, and Mr. Herbert S. Hamlin was elected captain of the team for the year. He has been very active throughout the year in getting men to come out and train, and for the first time in a num- ber of years the University was represented by a fndoor Meet. Early in the season there was considerable doubt as to the advisability of having a meet this year, owing to the fact that the meets had all previously netted financial deficits. The idea was started of securing guarantees from the various student organi- zations, and many contributed, so that nearly $150 was pledged, which it was thought would be ample to cover any possible deficit. However, in spite of all efforts, the deficit was double that amount. Considerable difficulty was had in securing Convention Hall on a good date, and it was finally necessary to hold the meet on February 22nd, nearly two weeks later than usual. Manager Slarrow worked hard, but had but little assistance. He secured the entries of Melvin Shepard and Abel Knviat, two Olympic stars, who came down from New York to compete, and the entries from the usual number of universities and colleges, among whom were Virginia, Johns Hopkins, Lehigh, Swarthmore, St. Johns, Catholic University, and Maryland Agricultural College. In spite of the attractive entries, how- ever, the expected crowd failed to materialize and the meet netted the usual deficit. Malcolm Gordon Slarrow Manager 207 G. W. U. The 1913 Cherry Tree G. W. U. Track John S. Hamlin Captain UR track team made its first appear- ance of the year at the Johns Hop- kins-Fifth Regiment games. There we ran against the relay four representing Mary- land Agricultural College, and our team won handily in fast time. The men who ran were Valaer, Hamlin, D. C. Smith and Tibbetts. In our own meet vve ran against the Catholic University four, to whom we lost a good race. The race was to have been at a mile, but the distance was cut to f,200 yards just before the meet, and our men were not trained for the shorter distance. Our second team lost a fast race to the M. A. C second team. Maxson finished third in the mile and scored the only point for the Uni- versity. The only other indoor appearance of the team was at the Richmond College Meet in Richmond. Two of the men on the team which had run in the previous meets were unable to go, and the team was composed of Maxson, Smith, Tibbetts and Yost. We lost to the fast team of our old enemies — Richmond College. The men who have come out and trained under such adverse conditions deserve the thanks of the school, and it is particularly due to Captain Hamlin and Manager Slarrow. THE BASKETBALL TEAM George Reges, M5, Captain Alexander Gorman. ’ 14, Manager Assistant Managers James P. Nash, ' 15 P. A Chamberlin, M6 Erwin Harsch, 13 HE first step toward starting up basket- , ball in the University this year was taken 5S§lP58 at the genera] athletic meeting held early in the fall, on October 9th. At that time Mr. McNally was elected temporary captain and Mr. Gorman temporary manager, and a general call for candidates was issued. In view of the condi- tion of the athletic treasury the basketball team was run as a separate entity. It was permitted to be started with the understanding that the manage- ment would guarantee that the team would be self- supporting, and that the Athletic Association would be responsible for no possible deficit. From the report turned in by the management it is proven that there is one sport at least which can be self- supporting at the University, Mr. Gorman made arrangements to secure the use of the Y. M. C. A. gymnasium for training purposes, and the first call brought out a number of candidates. Pie also arranged a schedule of games with the other institutions in this section. At a meeting of the Executive Committee of the Athletic Association, Mr. Gorman was formally elected manager, and since there were but three nominees for the three assistant managerships these three men were declared elected. The first game of the season was played against the fast team representing Catholic University, and we lost by the score of 43 to !4, It was played after but little practice and before the team had the services of a coach, so that the showing made was really very creditable. Alexander Gorman Manager 211 G. W. U The 19)3 C h erry Tree G V. U Basketball The next game resulted in a win, our team defeating the Maryland Agricultural College team by the score of 2 1 to 14 This was after Mr Schlosser had been secured to coach the team, and the improvement was apparent. In the next game the team however, lost to Gallaudet by 38 to 32. Mr. McNally found it necessary to with- draw at this time and Mr. Reges was elected to captain the team The next games played were on the short Southern trip, where we lost to Washington and Lee on February 25th by 59 to II, and were defeated by Virginia Military Institute by the score of 25 to 12 The learns playing on their home floors made good use of their advantage The big game of the year was the Virginia game at the Arcade on February the 18th. 1 he game was fast and well played Our men got started too late as Virginia rolled up a score in the first half which was too large to overcome though they were played to a standstill in the second session The score was 37 to 15 On the while the season can be said to have been a success although the number of games won was small. It was a very creditable showing for our first year in the sport and all indications are tha next year ' s team will be a great improvement. The basketball insignia, the W with the BB, was awarded to Gorman, Reges, Noonan, Gore, hluehrt, Murray and Nash. Mr. J. P. Nash has been elected manager for next year and 7 homas Noonan captain. 212 tioti they might enter. Our first venture was on the occasion of the second Intercollegiate match in 1 906. when our team traveled to Sea Girt, N. J., and defeated the teams from Pennsylvania, Harvard and Massachusetts Institute of Technology, thereby relieving Princeton of all responsibility for the safe-keeping of the championship trophy — for that year at least. No competition was held in 1 907, but the following summer an entirely new team was organized and sent to Boston to defend our trophy. Again we prevailed, defeating the field decisively with a score of 723, Sea Girt was chosen as the scene of the fourth annual competition. This event offered the opportunity for our third consecutive victory in the struggle for the trophy which will remain in competition sixteen years and then be awarded to the college with the largest number of wins registered. Massachusetts Agricultural College, with a total of 782, carried off the premier honors at the fifth Intercollegiate shoot held in June, 1910, at Washington, D. C, George Washington was second with 760, a score of 22 points better than any that had hitherto been made. However, the captain of our team, J. Ralph Fehr, earned off the individual honrs in making a total of 141 out of a possible 150 points and establishing an Intercolegiate record that has never been equalled. Thus closed the first period of our activity. Two summers have passed without a representative of George Washington University in the race. During that time Massachusetts Agricultural College registered a second victory, but lost to Harvard in 1912. Arrangements have been made to enter George Washington University in the eighth competition next June. The material is the best that has ever been available and under the same leadership as in 1910 and with O. D. Knight as manager, the team bids fair to again place the seal of George Washington University upon one of the bronze leaves of the trophy. [G] EORGE WASHINGTON UNIVERSITY has always been well repre- sented in the field of rifle shooting, its teams having earned for themselves a well-deserved recognition as a dangerous factor in any Intercollegiate competi- 213 THE PYRAMID The Pyramid Honor Society and who have been especially distinguished in some branch of student activities. The purpose of the Society is to band into one body those undergraduates, who, by their zealous and consistent activity in University interests, have merited the honor of public recognition, in order thereby to promote the welfare of the University by all the means at its command, to aid and encourage student activities and to build up a stronger college spirit among the student body. Such an organization as this cosmopolitan, distinctive society conducted as it is upon broad lines of general helpfulness both to the students and the institution is of no mean value to a university. It offers an incentive to earnest participation in college activities and will go far to keep up a high standard of endeavor in athletics, publica- tions, debating and like enterprises which are such essential elements of true college life. Following are the officers and members of the Society. Their college records may be found under the various class rolls.

Howard, A X. . . . , Secretary I 1 ARLY in the fall of 19] [ several of the fraternity men aL George Washington I I got together for the purpose of forming an Inter-Fraternity Association. The object of the Association is to promote among the fraternity men here at college a friendly feeling and to revive some of the old traditions of George Wash- ington University. the place of such an association is indeed large and the results obtained so far have been very encouraging. Each fraternity sends one delegate to the meetings, who soon becomes interested in the work of the Association and consequently there springs up among the delegates a feeling of friendship, thereby promoting the main object of the linter-Kraternity Association. [ he constitution provides that there shall be held one smoker and one dance each year. Accordingly steps were taken shortly afLer the opening of college last fall to arrange for the first Inter-Fratermty smoker, 1 he evening of December 7th is a pleasant reminiscence to those who mingled with their felow Greeks in good fellowship at the Continental. The old G. W. U. yells, which have been so long silent, and the college spirit, which in the past has somewhat lagged, were indeed revived. With the smoker as an inspiration the Association started plans for a dance. The results of Lhese plans were felt by all who attended the first Inter-Fraternity Dance at the New Willard on March 2fith. The Red Room was decorated with the several Greek letter banners repreesnting the different fraternities, and here eighty men and their ladies danced until two. The Inter-Fraternity Association is now an important factor in the student life of the University, The start has been made, will it continue? 222 G. W. U. The 1913 Cherry Tree G. W. U.

Gore Sergcani-at-Arms Executive Committee Donald L. Dutton Gordon Slarrow Earl M. Jeffrey rjpl STABLISHED in 1822, the Enosinian Society of the George Washington I XU J University has endured to the present time, surviving all the trials and vicisi- tudes — and there have been many of them — through which the University has passed. [f we are to judge the future from the past, it may well be said in days to come, “Other societies were and are no more, but the Enosinian flourisheth even unto this day The society has contributed more intercollegiate debaters to the teams representing the University than all the other debating societies combined. Not alone in the held of debating has it been pre-eminently distinguished. It has also led in other branches of student activities. It has constantly stimulated and fostered literary effort and has published in addition to a host of essays on a vast variety of subjects, two literary journals, The Bee and The News. Among the names appearing on the roster of the society are those of Lafayette, Webster, Clay, Calhoun, Bryant, J. Q, Adams, Martin Van Buren and Edward Everett. Among the members who have now attained high rank in educational and scientific circles, is that of Dean Hodgkins, of the College of Engineering. 223 EAR the beginning of the school year of 1913 an upper classman conceived the happy idea of forming a club for the development of art among the students of the University. He took into his confidence two other students whom he considered worthy in every respect and the three formed plans for the origin and develop- ment of the Pipe and Palette, It was agreed that the active membership should not, at any lime, exceed six, and the requirements for entrance were placed so high that these six would probably be the only eligibles in School. The season was started with a dinner given at the Lbbitt Plouse, after which the famous pipes with inlaid silver palettes were first lighted. Since that time, one night in nearly every week the pullers of these pipes may be seen grouped around a table laden with food exchanging excellent stories and discoursing on art in its various forms. The possessors of the palette may also be seen most any Sunday placing on paper bits of landscape that would make Whistler or Millet rise from their graves. The majority of the illustrations in the 1913 CHERRY Tree are the work of its members, while the Architectural Club owes its reorganization and present standing to these Pipes and Paletters. Lucky are the men who have been elected members, here they are: William T. Conboye R + Karl Galbraith E. Burton Corning Hugh N, McAuley Richard W. Crayton, Jr. Marc Phillips 224 The Sphinx Honor Society Hilda L. Ulrickson, President EDITH Cash, Secretary-Treasurer Gertrude Browne Eleanor L Jones (Honorary) Genevieve Frizzell Leila F. Scott Flora Hull Olivia Taylor Its membership is limited to seven, but may be drawn in the proportion of one from the Sophomore, three from the Junior, and three from the Senior classes. Those women who have shown themselves most actively interested in college affairs are eligible for election at the May meeting of the society. It is hoped that this society will do much for the women of the University. Already the society has shown that it meant business, by starting a campaign to raise money for refurnishing the women ' s study-room — a room used by all the University women, and which was not an especially attractive one. There are many other lines of work opened to it, and with the support of the student-body the Sphinx Honor Society cannot help but be a success. HE Sphinx Honor Society was organized in the fall of 1912 for the purpose of promoting college activities and spreading college spirit among the women of the University. 225 Herbert P. Ramsey, ' 16 President Walter B. Brock. ' 15 Vice-President H. Burton Lowe, ' 16. Secrcfarj) Erwin Harsc h, 1 5 T reasurer LJRING the past year the George Washington University Students’ Young Men’s Christian Association although it has met with what appeared on the surface to be failures, has been eminently successful in its work for the moral and physical welfare of the young men of the student body I he Association of the University is greatly indebted to the Central Association for the exceedingly generous combination membership offer which they made to the men of the school By this offer men were enabled to join the University and Central Association at the same time for the small sum of $5, the ticket permitting eighty admissions to the gymnasium and swimming pool along with the other Y. M. C. A. privileges at the building and the school. Early in the year discussions were had in the Y. M, C. A business meetings as to the methods to be employed in the organization and operation of a Men’s Bible Class. The officers were aware of the ’peculiar difficulties ’ presented by the school in that the majority of the students were those who were employed during the day and were attendants of the evening classes, and also that there was not a time to be found when a fair proportion of the day students were at the school. Hearing rumblings of distant thunder from the clouds however, they decided that the best thing which they could do would be to organize the class and to call the meetings of it at the time which would suit the greatest number. In accordance with this plan, Rev. J. Harvey Dunham, pastor of the Western Presbyterian Church, was secured as leader and the time was set for one o’clock on Fridays. The Y. M. C. A. has subscribed to a number of magazines and they have been regularly placed on the tables in the Y. M, C, A, room It might be added that they have systematically and consistently absented themselves from this room after a short sojourn there, although some of them have been known to remain there as long as a week. The annual banquet was held on the 26th of March in the Assembly Room of the Y. M. C. A. Building. This event was notable for two reasons — the speech of Hon. Henry B. F. MacFarland, and the crisp sound advice given by Dr, Hodgkins, Dean of the Department of Arts and Sciences. Considering the ‘peculiar conditions” on which Mr. MacFarland congratulated us the attendance was very good. 226 Officers Hilda Louise Ulrickson, ’13 . , . , . . . . .

This year, especially, it has been prominent in the movement to broaden college spirit and influence. Much of the credit for this enterprise is due to its able executive, who has often suggested and always pushed on the schemes for fur- thering college interests, both in the Y. W. C. A. and out. The girls room, which is under the supervision of the Y, W. C. A., is comfortable and roomy. although there is much to be desired in the way of cheeriness and decora- tiveness. At the present writing there is a movement on foot to raise money for certain furnishings, and it is to be hoped that before the year is ended the appearance of the room will be materially improved. At Christmastime the Y. W, C, A, cooperated with the West End branch of the Associated Charities to bring the season ' s cheer to destitute families. The Thanksgiv- ing contributions were sent to Friendship House, a settlement house in Southeast Wash- ington. There have been a number of interesting talks at the weekly chapel services, given by speakers secured by the Program Committee. Among the social occasions, one of the first of the year was the party given to all college women by the Y. W. C. A. It took the form of a track meet, which would have put the men to shame. After that arduous exercise the girls rested, were refreshed according to the method usually in vogue at a party and listened to urgent invitations to join. It is noticeable that the membership always increases after such an affair. Another thing worthy of mention was the joint social of the Y. W. and Y. M, C. A. on April the second at the main Y. M. C. A, building. It came up to all expectations, and was so successful that regret was expressed that there hadn ' t been more of them. 227 ENGINEERING SOCIETY Henry H, Swelling. .President J, Rochford Dwyer . .

Degenhardt HE fourth year in the history of the Engineering Society has been one of great progress and much advancement. During the year the Society has held many meetings and functions that have been well attended. I he Banquet of the Engineering Society was held on the evening of February 3, 1913, The attendance was all that could be desired. The speeches of the guests of honor were such that those in attendance found much to congratulate themselves upon being there, A pleasing feature of the banquet was the singing of the college songs. Through the courtesy of Director S, W, Stratton, the Engineering Society were able to spend a very interesting and enjoyable evening, visiting the laboratories of the Bureau of Standards, Many evening technical meetings were held during the year. The high character of these meetings was attested by the gentlemen giving them. Many scientific points were discussed and much benefit was derived from these meetings In speaking of the important change which took place last year in the constitution of the Society, whereby all nominations for officers of the Society must be made at the first meeting of the year and the elections held at the next meeting, to avoid any possible chance of rushing through with an election, it may be mentioned here that the plan worked to the best of advantage, I he bi-weekly meetings of the Society proved highly satisfactory to the members. This Society stands for advancement in all things worth while in the engineering line, and is a strong bond uniting its members to a better acquaintance. The Engineering Society closes a most successful year and has without doubt fulfilled its object — “to promote that spirit which will be an increasing source of strength to the Engineering College, and to the engineering members ' 229 Professor Charles E.

With a roll of half a hundred members it is considered the largest student scientific organization in the University and in point of enthcsiasm and interest is surpassed by none. At the first meeting of the year %vhen a number of new members were elected, Professor Munroe, Honorary President of the Society, gave one of his inspiring talks. A number of interesting and instructive papers were presented and discussed at the regular monthly meetings held throughout the year. Among the subjects treated were: “Beer by Mr. Giantvalley; Sulphuric Acid,” by Mr. Ramsay; Glass,” by Mr, Stewart; Dips,” by Mr. Taylor; “Yeast,” by Mr. Lockings; “Soil Bacteriology, by Mr. Leonard; “Exothermic Steel,” by Mr. Lepper; Science vs. Art,” by Mr. Pozen; “Geology As An Aid In Iron Ore Explorations,” by Mr. Walton, and Electrolytic Copper,” by Mr. Donk. Mr. Brockwell exhibited a spinthariscope, and Mr. Thompson gave the results of his research on “Quicklime As An Explosive,” while Mr. Lodholz had charge of abstracts from current chemical literature. At the annual public meeting held in January the speaker of the evening was Dr. Frank K. Cameron, in charge of physical and chemical investigations, Bureau of Soils, w T ho gave a lecture on the potach problem. An inspection trip was made in the fall to Alexandria, where the sulphuric acid plant, bottle factory and brewery were visited. In the spring a trip was made to Baltimore and a number of manufacturing industries were examined. The red-letter event of the year was the banquet, appropriately held on the eve of Washington ' s Birthday at the New Ebbit. With Mr. Pozen as “spark plug” some remarkably fine “sparks from the anvil of experience” were effected from a number of the guests, and it was observed that there was absolutely no period of induction at this function or attending any other reaction set up during the year in the Chemical Society of G.

Thousands of people answered these calls. Early G. W. U. architectural history tells us that the coming of the greatest of all events was merely announced by the tacking of a poster just outside of Dean Ash’s office. It had the same effect as the runners, for what we lacked in numbers we made up with enthusiasm. 1 his great event was the formation of the George Washington University Architectural Club. The Architectural Club has always been Bohemian. A meeting was generally begun with an instructive lecture, after which there was a grand scramble for the realm of sausage and cider. The monotony of these feasts was at times broken by spontaneous athletic stunts, such as putting the shot with a cider jug or bowling with ice and bottles. Then, too, we must confess that Freshmen were sometimes surprised to find warm doggies coated with mustard suddenly thrust down their necks, or lumps of cheese hurled at their heads, but this, of course, was merely following out the old custom. At present the enrollment includes twenty-five members Many interesting and instructive lectures have been given by noted men, among whom were Mr, H. K, Bush- Brown, the sculptor. Professor Murphy of Catholic Uni- versity, Professor Ash of G, W. U., and others. At the suggestion of Professor Harris the Club is publishing an architectural annual comprising the best work of its members The committee, composed of Messrs. Porter, Keister, Conboye and Freemire, announces the fact that a sufficient number of advertisements have been secured to ensure a profit of at least $100. With this amount we hope to start the library much needed by our architectural students. These catalogues, which will contain full particulars of the architecural course, besides twenty or thirty ha!f-to es of cur work, will be sent free of cost to every practising architect b the States of Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia, North Carolina and Georgia, and the District of Columbia, as well as to every preparatory school likely to contribute students to G, W U. As there will be one thousand copies of the annual put in circulation this year, the University should be greatly benefited thereby. Great credit is due Professor Harris for his suggestion and indispensable help 233 G. W. U. The 1913 Cherry Tree G. W. U. The Athletic Association Howard W. Hodgkins, Eng. 13,,. . President Donald L.

Barrett, C, C 16 Harold Keats, Law 15 T HE question of forming an Athletic Association was agitated last spring, and early in the fall a mass-meeting was held in the Medical Building to bring the BPjPsSI matter to a head. At that meeting a temporary committee was elected, lo lave charge of the organization of the Association. f his committee sold a number of tickets among the students, and in November an election of officers was held, all holders of membership tickets voting by ballot. The officers given above were elected. These officers then drew up a constitution, which was presented to a meeting held in the LJni- versily Chapel and the greater part of it adopted without change. The Association has during the year raised quite a large amount of money toward paying off the remain- ing athletic deficit and has generally supervised the control of the Track and Basket- ball teams, which are the only branches of sport in which the University has been repre- sented during the past year. T he Executive Committee has supervised the elections for assistant managers, awarded the athletic insignia in the various branches of sport and elected the managers for the coming year. The work of the Association is controlled by the Faculty and subject to their rulings. A committee composed of Prof. W. C. Ruediger, chairman ; Prof. G. N. Henning, and Prof. H. C, Jones, has direct supervision over all student activities, and are ex officio members of the Executive Committee of the Association. A larger body for the government of the Association and the raising of interest in the several departments is the Athletic Council, which is composed of the Executive Committee ex officio and one representative from each one of the departments of the University, together with the managers of each of the teams. The formation of a new Athletic Association this year was undoubtedly a long step in the right direction, and it is hoped that the number of branches of sport in which the University is to be represented wilt be materially increased next year. 234 G.

Vice-President Erwin Harsch (Eng., M 5) .Secrefarii James P. Nash (Eng., M4) Treasurer T | HE Class Presidents Association, as should be the case, has been the means I of bringing the students and the Faculty of the University in close touch with each other. he meetings of the association have been frequent, and it has been quick to take up and inaugurate matters which pertain to the good of the University. The campaign inaugurated to wipe out the athletic deficit was prosecuted with vigor by the various class presidents and over half of the deficit was paid in. As a means of keeping the Faculty advised of the feeling of the student body and acting as a mutual representative for both student body and Faculty, the Class Presi- dents Association is undoubtedly a desirable organization. It can be truthfully stated that the Class Presidents organization of 1912 has undoubtedly filled this requirement. The departments are represented by the following gentlemen: Columbian College - — MAXSON, BROWN, WALTON AND BARRETT Engineering — SNELLING, NASH AND HARSCH Teachers College — JOHNSON Medical — English, Taylgr, Donn and McNally Denial— DuFEE, Golden AND CARR Pharmacy WHITTLESEY AND COWLING Veterinary — Cook AND BROWN G.

Brown Art HE Veterinary Medical Association of the George Washington University is I i | a student organization created at a meeting held October 1 7, 1908, and having for its object (ci) the advancement of veterinary science in general, ( b) to promote a feeling of good-fellowship among the students of all classes, (c) to create and maintain the spirit of loyalty to our Alma Mater, and (d) to serve as an organ through which the students may communicate with the faculty. I he regular meetings of the Association are held on the second Saturday of each month after the first annual meeting and during the scholastic year. At these meetings papers of scientific interest on live topics are read and discussed by its members, and these are a very beneficial and important factor to a young man entering upon a pro- fessional career. These meetings are rendered of particular value to the student mem- bers by the usual presence of one or more prominent veterinary practitioners or specialists connected with the various scientific bureaus of the government who present the problems with which the veterinarian has to deal both from practical and theoretical standpoints. In addition to a number of smokers during the year, an annual banquet is given by the Association, to which the members of the faculty and other distinguished guests are invited, and the occasion is made a joyous and instructive one by the usual prandial and post-prandial proceedings. The Association, although very young, is a well-established organization ; the mem- bership is large and growing rapidly ; the student-body realizes the vast amount of good that can be accomplished as is evidenced by the greater and ever-increasing interest which they manifest and the readiness with which every member responds in lending himself to the performance of arduous duties in behalf of its welfare; and it is easy to predict a long-continued and prosperous future for the Veterinary Medical Association of the George Washington University, 236 G. W. U. The 1913 Cherry Tree G. W. U. University Debate Dr C W A Veditz Edward R Callister, Needham C. C. Rose, Columbian r ip 1 OR the third time in two years George Washington has been successful in the intercollegiate debates, of which Washington and Lee University was the opponent The success of the George Washington team is all the more remarkable because of the comparatively short time, barely two weeks, which our team had to prepare for the debate. Success of this kind gives an added stimulus to inter- collegiate debating, and it is hoped that interest in debating will be enhanced during the next school year, George Washington has a remarkable record in intercollegiate debating. During the year from 1905 to 1907 George Washington participated in six intercollegiate debates without a single defeat There have been sixteen debates since 1905, of which George Washington won eleven. Probably few universities can present such a record. One of the strong features of intercollegiate debating is that those participating are eligible for membership in the national fraternity, the Delta Sigma Rho, composed entirely of intercollegiate debaters.

Kingsbury . . . ..Arthur Wooley Edward R. Callister HE Needham Debating Society is an important factor in fostering an interest in debating in the University. Its members always manifest a keen interest in intercollegiate debating. While success in intercollegiate debating is not always a criterion in results accomplished in a debating society, at the same time it demonstrates that the benefits received in taking part in weekly debates put students well in the fore- ground of efficient debaters and speakers. In the first intersociety debate of the school year Arthur Wooley, Burr S. Stottle, and Walter E. Barton upheld the contention of the Needham Society. Second honors were awarded to Mr. Stottle. The second inter society debate was won by the Needham Society. The debaters were Marion S. Tanner, Walter E. Barton and Sam D. Thur- man. First honors were awarded to Mr. Barton. The Society meets Friday evening in the north hall of the Law School. 241 G. W. U. The 19(3 Cherry Tree G. W. U. The Columbian Debating Society HE Columbian Debating Society, which was founded in 1889, has for its aim the development of the art of debating and public speaking. The students of the University, in all departments, are eligible for membership. It has the largest membership of any debating society in the University as well as representatives from more departments than any other society It meets each Friday evening during the school year in the North Hall of the Law School, at which time some question of moment to the public is debated. At the preceding meeting three members of the society are appointed to uphold the affirmative side of the question selected and three to uphold the negative. At the close of the formal debate each other member of the society present is given three minutes to discuss the question upon either side he may choose. Two honor men are selected at each debate, and when six formal debates have thus been held another formal debate is held between the six first honor men selected, and three of this number are selected by the society to represent it in one of the series of three inter-society debates between the Columbian and Needham Debating Societies held each year G.

CHORUS The Law School Stock Farm! The Law School Stock Farm! The greatest place that you have ever seen. Gray Eagle rambles and Black Hawk ambles, While Buttercup goes gamboling o ' er the green! Now Mr. B was seised in fee and he did lease to D A place they call White Acre which adjoined the farm, yu see, He kept a cow called Buttercup and he was sued by A Because she trespassed and ate up all Black Hawk ' s oats and hay. — -Chorus. Now it appeared that Mr. A W ' ent out one summer day To take his pet horse Black Hawk his apportionment of hay. And Mr. C says Pardon me, would it do any harm To take these oats and give them to Gray Eagle at the farm) — Chorus . But as poor Mr. A that day was just a trifle boozed He got the bran and oats and hay most tortiously confused. And Buttercup, she trespassed and she stole that grub away ; Oh, tell us, Mr. Fraser, does her milk belong to A? 261 — Chorus. G, W. U The 1913 Cherry Tree G, W. U.

Let your conversation possess a clarified conciseness, a compacted comprehensibility, a coalescent consistency and a concatenated cogency. Eschew all conglomerations of flatulent garrulity, jejune babblement, and asinine affectation. Let your extemporaneous decantings and unpremeditated expaliations have intelligibility, without redomontade or thrasonical bombast. “Sedulously avoid all polysyllabical profundity, pompous prolixity, and ventnloquical vapidity 1 As should probably say it: “Sing your song t son, and don ' t throw the bull.

S, The Faculty tentatively selected is as follows: Harold Keats , . Dean Henry Alphonse Lepper, , .Professor of Bygology Louis Lodholz , .. . . . Professor of Pro. M. A. Pozen . . . Professor of Con, Dean Keats is well known as the author of How to Sell Books by Buhl Sling- ing, The Value of Buhl in Business, and many other bully books. It was only through the personal appeals of the highest University officials that Mr. Keats was per- suaded to give up his lucrative publishing business to accept the office of Dean. We congratulate the University on the acquisition of Dean Keats, He is the man for the place. Professor Lepper is Washington ' s foremost exponent of Bygology, and as such needs no further introduction. 1 he institution is indeed fortunate to obtain his services. Professors Ludholz and Pozen are nationally famous as a result of their series of joint debates before the G. W. U. C. S, Both of these men are preeminent in their respective lines of BuhL and their courses shoud be among the most valuable ever given at the University. I he addition of this college will fill a long-felt want, and shows a progressive policy on the part of the I rustees which is indeed gratifying to all who have the welfare of the University at heart.
