Far up a stream from out a shaded nook. Laden with smiling youths- -a happy crew A strong-built little barge sailed forth and took A pours well planned, e’en though the way was new. Away she soiled round many a puzzling turn, Through shadows brown and brilliant, daneing beam. While in eaeh heart a great desire did burn To view the storied scenes along the stream. One bend was passed, the sun shone everywhere: Hut soon mysterious shadows clothed all things; The little crew looked overhead —and there A huge, black vulture sailed with out spread wings. Then suddenly lie swooped upon the erew. And bore one comrade off twixt talons keen; And o’er the little band a sadness new Dimmed for a time the beauty of the scene. The hoax moved on. Another bend was near; When passed, what splendor loomed on either side What music of sweet birdsong met the ear. And mingled with the cadence of the tide! Still one more bend, more troublous than all told. Where crowning glories made the course more bright; Where many wondrous mysteries did unfold Their curious secrets to the eager sight The port is reached. From it lead many wavs; Each one will chose as seemeth to him best: No sad farewell; for o’er each path the rays Of high hopes gleam, and joy pervades each breast.

The aim of the Herald is to reflect the life, spirit, and thought of the Academy, and to give practice in the proper use of English. The many articles on subjects of current imj ortaiice. and the many original poems appearing in this publication from time to time, indicate that the students of the Academy arc not only keeping up with the many important events of the times, but are also acquiring line and cultured tastes. 5= =5) Eureka Literary and Debating Society This society is conducted by the students of the Academy, and has for its purpose the training of its members in Parliamentary proceed11re and debate. The society evolves into the Mock Congress of the ITiited States of Howard ITiivensity in the second half of the school term. This congress is conducted after the fashion of the Congress of the Cnited States. Much training in Parliamentary proccedure is gained. Phyllis Wheatley Literary Society In stating the aims and accomplishments of the Phyllis Wheatley, Miss Evelyn Lightner, our classmate says. “Development and expansion of mind together with readiness and fluency of speech arc the results of investigation and free discussion of topics which augment knowledge and enhance the assimilation of culture. And with this ever in mind the young women of the Academy ami Commercial College labor to the end that they may acquire all that is cultural, fine, and ideal.” n p- r 1 i % i L ) A R . A. ftTon.'ll. Our Debating History The history of the intenwholastic delating contests in the Academy affords much justification in the demand upon the student mind of the department for greater activity in this phase of school life. Within the last six years no more than two interscholastic contests have taken place. One of these took place in the year 1911 with the M Street (now Dunbar) High School, and another in 1912 with Virginia Union. We were losers in the M Street debate but winners in the Virginia Union contest. After 1912 it was decided that oratorical contests should take the place of debates. Oratorical contests continued until 1914. Truly inter ami intru class delates occured spasmodically from time to time, but no real enthusiasm and genuine rivalry were stirred. This year, however, the Dunbar High .School of this city aroused us from our lethargy by challenging us to intellectual combat on the question “Resolved that admission to American Colleges should lie by examination only.’’ Dunbar wrote us a letter stating that they could not debate with us owing to dissension in the ranks of their debating team. Our representatives wore Norman P. Andrews, John Miles, and J. Garland Wood, Seniors. The alternates were Z. Alexander Looby, R. A. Alston, and L. Kennedy McMillan. 23 A CROUP OF MIDDLERS CLASS OFFICERS: R. A. Alston. President A. G. Featherstone. Vice President S. Leon Aoselle, Secretary L. J. Orr, Assistant Secretary Aiss S. A. Alexander.

A number of our old “stars” did not return, hut our confidence was kept alive by the good showing of tin- many newcomers who made up the teams. In the Academy football squad, only two of the players were of last year's team. Almost in the middle of the season. Conch George Bryce left its and undertook the training of the Armstrong foot hull team of the Capitol City. The training of our men which followed was lacking in intensity and thoroughness. Our football squad was not the invincible team of former years. Out of six games played during the season, we lost three, tied two. and won one. The doss of '18 was represented by S. 1 . Williams. Leo Bryant, F. L). Williams. Win. Green. In this popular midwinter game the Academy is not lacking in democratic representation. We have a girl’s basketball team under the coaching of Miss Euola Daniels, and under the captaincy ef Miss Lorraine Davis. About the campus the reputation of the team is high. The interelass games played by those girls were not without interest and excitement. Here is a “line up” of tin team; Lorraine Davis, captain; Ruth Graves. Annahelle Steele. Weida Wallace, Irma Neal. Eva Haugabook. Theodosia Turner, Edna Lewis. Minnie Thompson, Mozclla Lewis. The class of 'is was represented by Irma Neal, Edna Lewis, and Lorraine Davis. Although they brought home no spotaeular victories, the Isiyx basket hall team did good work. Here's a “line-up” of the team: E. I) Williams, W. Smith, and C. S. Skinner, guards; I . E. Hardwick and II. V. Plummer, centers; .1. V. Young. R. R. Taylor, Win. Green, forwards; all of the class of ’18. The familiar “whack” resounded on the diamond on the first warm day of the spring.. From the interest and agility shown by tIn players, there is much promise of a good baseball season. F. D. Williams Track 26 ACADEMY FOOTBALL TEAM Left to Right Standing: Green, Burke, Bolling, F.

It is my purpose in the story that follows, to give a brief account of tin fortunes and vicissitudes of tin class of nineteen hundred Mul eighteen during its four years in tin Aradeim of Howard I diversity. The recollection of those incidents has indeed left upon my mind a chequered and vuiied feeling of pleasure and of pain, not on mingled wit h some measure of gratitude and veneration I the Disposer of lliuiutn Kvents, who guided our course through many labors to tin happy outcome of our effort. There i lit11� doubt that the incidents of these four years, as they are now to be related will prove of some interest to those whose hearts beat in sympathy with the thrills of student life. it was on the twenty-ninth of September, a warm, sultry day of early autumn, that we came to Howard Academy for tin- first time four years ago. Hroui the sunny Southlands and the frozen North we came, three score souls ami eight, with powers of intellect as diversified as the regions whence we had come. Through the log gate we entered, gazing about us and meeting oft times the amused smiles «f some who wen evidently old residents of the place. By devious paths we finally reached the Dean's office in the Main Building. Here we were warmly greeted and helped in RANKIN nenORIAL CMAPfcL 29 the arrangement of recitation schedules. Following this iotn . duet ion to our Doan came the little matter of an introduction t the treasurer’s office. No one of the class of lri who does not remember that long line of patient newcomers, waiting dumbly as the sheep before its shearer, to be shorn of our matriculation dollars. After this ordeal we were free for the day and, in large measure for the week. Being thus nominally bereft of care and having noticed tin j caeeful splendor of the region lieyond the reservoir, a group of newcomers started in cpiuet of the beauties of nature. But that pleasure was not to be theirs: for, on passing Miner Hull, they were seized and hazed in the manner most pleasing to their captors. Henceforth we were extremely courteous and unusually polite; for by such conduct only could an occasional cold hath be avoided. Hut it is a most pleasing fact that, in the march of human affairs, what is said or done today is not infrequently forgot ton tomorrow. Time moved with us so rapidly that the affronts of mil “paeiie” days were soon only dim memories and. before wo knew it, midyear examinations had come and gone. The class had changed Ms first president. Mr. I evin Ooell. who had n monoply of parliamentary rules for another who. besidse overcoming every algebraic DEAR OLD MINER HALL 30 obstruction, was destined to surround himself mol his class with lory before the end of tlu four yeans in the Arademy. Mr. A. K. Mm.shall was president of the class for the second semester. Silently hut steadily time rolled on. and in her train Imre us to the end of our first year. Proud of our junior work and looking eagerly forward to the Honorable title of “Sub-Middlcr. we ■Icpailrd for mu several homes. SI H-MIDDLK YKAU.

Some of our number had not returned hut their places hail been taken by some new arrivals who. by sheer powei of intellect and indomitable energy were soon to make history for the el ass of eighteen. .Mr. A A Brown was president of the class for the first semester. It happened that not long after the work of the year was well under way, we challenged the class of seventeen, those intrepid .Midtilers, to a debate. It is needless to say that ill this contest of brains we were the victors and thereafter walked the can pus with an air of confidence and power With this sue cess as an inspiration to us. it was not surprising that at the “Howard Night exorcises held a few weeks Inter in the city, we divided first honors with the Seniors, th- class of sixteen. SCIENCE HALL 31 Mid-year examinations eainc. I� riii 5im� to us no terrors; midyear examinations wont I wiving with ns no regrets. Then come tin election of mu third president, Mr. William Trent Andrews, member of our debating team. For tins election there was much political campaigning. Perhaps, however. “Hilly” would have won the place without any one's having had recourse to secret diplomacy in his behalf for lie was n very popular member of the class of ’lb. Hut our enthusiasm rail high and found an outlet in this way. Hut for enthusiasm such as ours, the time-worn activities wen inadequate. Our energies soon •-ought other fields wherein to exert themselves. The result was the resuscitation of the Academy Herald and the breaking up of the class into two gigantic political parties, the “Academic and the “Progressive. . Th n ensued a period of | o)iticnl maneuvering. K very where m the eati.pu-groups of men were to bo seen planning and plotting to effect the elect ion of their candidate The Progressive ticket bore tin names of brilliant men: the nominees upon the Academic ticket wen hardly less brilliant, and what these candidate lacked in this respect was amply made up for by their qualifications such at diplomacy and genius for organization. After a somewhat DEAR OLD CLARK MALL 32 brief bill spirited campaign. the whole Academic ticket, excepting two associate editorship. was elected. It was a real election with Rankin .Memorial Chapel as the polling booth. There had lieen in the campaign the inevitable jil ex and unpleasant personalities. At one stage ol the proceedings. relations were so strained that today McGhee owes his bead only to the timely interposition of Matt lick’s bulk; for Nanton was very wrath. Hut the most unfortunate result was that party feeling had run so high ax to become crystalized in a manner detrimental to the lx t interests of our ••lass organization, anil we left in June, nominally one body but. in reality, two hostile factions. MIDDLE YEAR. Mr. P. E. Hardwick was chosen president of the class for the first semester. In a rather unwholesome atmosphere of political intrigue, we labored throughout our middle year. And if our methods were more refined than in the preceding year, they certainly were not less far reaching. I'nder the guise of earnest research, a Star Chamber was easily inade of the Library and a Committee Room of the Manual Arts building. But while the two old parties were thus serenly laying plans for the ensuing election, a third party made its appearance in the field by boldly electing one i' its number. Mr. W. D. CARNEGIE LIBRARY 33 .Mitchell to the presidency of the class. The method of attack used l� .v the new party was a novel one. It wax machine politics, pure and undelilcd. By means fair or foul, the new party determined to carry everything before it. Then the old parties immediately forgot past rivalries and animosities and. uniting their forces, defeated the common foe. The old adage. “It never rains but it pours,” may be aptly applied to the surprises of our middle year ; lor. as we were girding om-selves for one long dash to final examinations, the news went tin rounds, that owing to a series of events which had taken place in connection with the struggle for tin- Officers Training ('amp at l)es Moines, school would close on the nineteenth of May. There was no more going to Science Mali for the class of 1918 that year; so packing up hurriedly, some went their accustomed ways for the summer while others went to the Training Camp. Among the latter were Messrs. Marshall and Alexander. The former was our .second president. Both are now lieutenants in the National Army. SENIOR YEAR. With the passing of summer, we turned our steps once more to the Academy. At the end of this year’s work we hoped to gain that prize which all so earnestly desired. In numbers, when compared with the seventy-one members of our middle year, we, as Seniors, presented a striking contrast. On every hand were empty seats: every day men were answering the call to arms. Of the sixty eight original members of the elate of 1918 there remained but three t � face final examinations. Yet. as if to compensate for such uncertainty of fortune, a calm air of peace ami friendship diffused its healing influence among us. insomuch that this was the most harmonious year of the four. And now that tin end of our four years is at hand, there is evident a feeling of regret at having to leave the scenes that have become so dear to us. Little did we think that the time would pass so quickly; Four years ago. the end seemed an eternity: today. the beginning seems but yesterday. Of defeats we have had a taste; of victor} we have drunk also. Lasting friendships have been formed ami cemented: kindly feelings liave had biitli neve. to die. And so as. lanne on life's swift current, our little ships move onward toward eternity’s great sea. the memories of this happy time when we. a tiny fleet sailed for a season side by side, will over cheer us and give us strength to bravely outride storms and buffeting waves which heat our little barks on life a broad, mighty ixrenii. 34 Class Prophecy H f Iran Miller.

I had translated as for as the point where Aeneas was being steered across the river Styx, when night, creeping slowly on. sent twilight as a warning of her coining. The words on the page grew faint and fainter until I could see them do longer. Then giving free play to my fancy, I pictured scene after scene of Aeneas adventures in Hades, until almost before 1 knew it. I. too. was being steered across the river Styx, t u the other shore Aeneas eagerly awaited my arrival; for In was the one chosen to lead such a distinguished one as myself, through the land of the “.Misty Future ' Since I seemed somewhat shaken up by tile sudden change of years, for now it was 1928. Aeneas went with me tirst to the hospital. Imagine my surprise when I read upon the door of one of the offices l‘)r. James Ward, Chief Surgeon. I laughed aloud as 1 remembered the wonderful dissections that Ward used to make in the biology laboratory. We next entered one of the wards where the internes, William Green and Smallwood Aekiss were busy at their work. 1 was much pleased to ace that the ambition of these two of my old classmates hail been realized. In the dental infirmary I found two of the leading dentists of the country, Drs. F. I). Williams and C. S. Skinner engaged in a conversation. As I passed them I heard Williams say. “Johnny Young has lioen sent by tin State to represent it in the National Medical Conference. Now, if Young will only attend to business and let all the pretty pi--This was all I heard, but I inferred the rest, and we moved on. In a luxuriously appointed consultation room. I saw a group of men engaged in hot discussion. Drawing nearer. I recognized Nat Gordon, Gilbert Thomas. C. Roach, ami H. Hamlett. Dr Styles seemed to he the jH� rson under discussion. Aeneas told me that Styles had been chosen to represent the dental infirmary at the National Conference This fact has caused much heart burning among Styles’ colleagues, because each one thought himself more worthy of the honor than their former class. 35 mat . Peeping into a small operating room. I saw Lorraine Davis moving around in her butterfly way. making ready to extract. by her new painless method, a tooth from a portly gentleman. My ache was all gone now. and ready for all kinds of surprises. I went with my guide into the street. A loud voice soon attracted our attention Following the sound, wt came to a park where a large crowd had gathered. Standing upon a dry-goods Ik x. gesticulating and hammering at the air with great vigor, 1 recognized my old classmate. John Miles. Miles always knew all the news, so I stopped to talk with him. Asking about Boyd. I learned that he. with Irma Neal were members of the Metropolitan Opera Company. Miles also told me that Brooks and A. A. Brown were professors of Mathematics at Howard. I was greatly surprised to leant that Robert Taylor had been sent to Congress. Miles said that McMillan was bishop in the Methodjwt Church. l pon inquiring about Andrews, I learned that he was corj oration lawyer to a very wealthy concern. Concerning the Fairclough lx yx. he s iiil that at Panama they had cstahlishe l a great surgical and medical institution which rivaled the establishment of the Mayo brothers. In a beautiful and peaceful suburban section of the city I saw a cosy little house, set back a small distance from the street, and surrounded by trees and beautiful gardens. Yielding to the temp, tatiou to peep inside, I saw in Ids large and well supplied library. Errol cl Colly more, almost hidden from view in a huge morris chair, and a little Itoy and girl .sitting on his knees asking him how did they make year-books. His wife, a sweet faced little woman, was knitting smilingly and contentedly. My next visit was made upon “Plummer and Bryant Bros.” drug store. 1 learned that this was the “dietio” drug store of the city, and here one might meet the ’elite of tin town. Sitting at one table, talking earnestly over their empty ice cream soda glasses. I recognized lawyers Haynes and Wood. I dared not disturb them as they were discussing some big law suit. In a cozy corner 1 recognized a group of mv old classmates. Ruth Graves. Edna Lewis. Evelyn Light nor. Esther Gundy and Alice Mundy. My guide informed me that this was the regular meeting place of these girls, the belli of the town. As I passed I heard Alice say. “Who would have thought that Rachel Thomas would ever go into a convent.” “Oh yes!” sighed Evelyn, “but this is the old story of a broken heart.” Aeneas ordered ice cream. While he was finishing his second dish. 1 glanced over the morning paper. Some advertisements caught my eye. “Aeroplanes to let.” C. L. Smith—Elocution 36 sessions. Price per hour. The modem Dcmot hones. luhcrt 1.. Ohallcnor. ” ” Architect and Builder, John W. Ilarinoii. Tonus easy.” My ear then caught a wrap of iicwh from the chatterers in the comer. “Yea.” snid Alice, “she married that wealthy Mr. Pleasant. They say she makes a mode! mother to his live children. “Look! then she goes now in her new auto.” I too. craned my MiH k. It was Bea Clark. “Some folks are always lucky,” sighed I ice. My eye returned to the advertisement column of the paper. More familiar names. “Soya Bean Syndicate. Stock 112. Preferred Stock 115. Dividends distributed in 1927 $100.00(1 ' Among the list of the wealthy directors, 1 found T K. Sweeney. C. Marc Bousse. Ernest Holder, and Charles A. Henry. These were “doing their hit” by raising lienns to few! tin soldier in the Great War which had not yet ended. I was told that the lawyer for this great syndicate was Clarence Green. In the “News in Brief” column of the paper. I lead “The Woman's Foreign Missionary Society of Zion M. E. Church,” will meet on Tuesday of this week, at the residence of Misi Ethel Spiiggs. 420 Euclid Avenue. The nest meeting will In- addre sed by Miss Sadie Mallory, lately returned from a tiip through “ Africa. ” The door opened and in came “Sir Walter Scott.” This dclxmair youth stepped as if he owned the earth. “Sir Walter.” said Aeneas, “owns the big dry g HnLs store around the corner.” There had been silence in the little comer for some time, h it Kvelvn muni broke it. “Well, girls. I suppose that Eloist McComb and Mossella Lewis are getting ready to reopen their seminary in the fall ’’ “Yes.” said Alice, “I’m sure. I met Eloixe yesterday and she mentioned this to me.” I had spent a most busy day. Evening had come—and twilight, and when darkness fell, we strolled to Wyoming Williams' • Wonderland. on the outskirts of the city. We saw there among all the amusing things, an arrangement like an aeroplane, which one ould operate one’s self with the keeper's instructions. We paid a nickel and got into the contraption. Pressing a button, we shot up: hut instead of pressing the “volplane button upon deciding to come down, we pressed the button marked “down” and the machine made a midden dive for mother earth. 1 awoke to find myself seated upon the floor of the porch. My kid brother had loosened one end of the hammock and let m« down. Convulsed with laughter. I ran into the hous . planning to entertain the whole family with my wonderful visit into the future. 37 CLASS WILL By E. D.
