LEWIS AND His woRK BOUT the year 1870 a wave of discussion on industrial education swept over this country. Out here in the XVest, as it was then called, the discussion was as widespread as anywhere. Nor were the reasons far to seek, so far as Chicago was concerned. VVhat is to-day the Middle NVest was then beginning to make known its wants in a mercantile way, and prominent among these wants was a need for ma- chinery suitable for the farmer and the manufacturer, and for the machinists and engineers necessary for the production and operation of such devices. It was true that such machinery and experts could be obtained from New York, or Boston, or Philadelphia, but the cost was great, time was con- stantly being lost, and general dissatisfaction resulted. Tn the rising young city of Chicago marked interest was displayed in the consideration of this mercantile problem. Newspaper editorials dealt with the question, and busi- ness people talked about the matter as one of vital concern. Gradually cer- tain people came to feel that somehow or other a school of technical educa- tion was to be established. Given the engineers. we shall make our own machinery, and thus free ourselves of inconvenient and costly dependence upon a distant base of supplies. This was felt to be true. In those days the founding of schools was not in so great vogue as it is to-day, and the good citizens waited to see who would make the initial move toward found- ing an institution which had become a positive want. At that time there were but three technical schools of any importance in the country, and they were situated in the Eastern States. These matters were not lost upon Allen C. Lewis, hardware merchant. It is entirely probable, in the light of subsequent events, that even before his trip to France in search of health Mr. Lewis had. after much discussion and counsel with his brother, John Lewis, formulated the plan of establish- ing a school of technical education. He was vividly impressed, not only by the need for skilled artisans on the one hand, but also by the-to him-posi- tive need for thorough training in one art for boys and girls on the other hand. Mr. Lewis spent three years in Holland, Belgium and France. In those lands he observed the bitter struggle for existence, especially in the cities. He observed that t'he skill to ply a trade. even a small trade, such as the paper-ilower industry in Belgium, was the one thing that stood between many a young person and dependence. Particularly was this true of the young women, and particularly did Mr. Lewis deplore the lack of training that leaves young women, in so many instances, utterly without resources. . ' W Q 6 'u!4,J:F!J 22 He came to see clearly that to throw upon the world a boy or a girl incapable of doing well some one thing is to give that boy or girl the most unfavorable start possible in the only life they have to live, and it is believed that, when Mr. Lewis returned to Chicago, he had fully determined to set on foot a project that should lead directly to the establishment of a unique school. This school was to train boys and girls for lifework, and to train them so well that failure would be contingent upon lack of personal effort only. Mr. Lewis felt that such a school must needs have ample funds or it would fail. In accordance with this wise foresight he constrained himself to go slowly. His business was lucrative, and with wife, child and other near relatives gone, he gave himself up to it that he might thereby further his plans for a school, and when he died, in 1876, it was found that very nearly all of his fortune of about S6o0,0oo had been given to found a school, as previously outlined. Mr. Lewis had inserted clauses in his will which required that the money should rest as he had invested it until such time as it had reached a certain value. He felt that it would be useless to build and operate a school with less than, say, S8oo,ooo. In 1896 the trustees of the bequest prepared to carry out the plan of Mr. Lewis and found that the sum in hand amounted to nearly three times the amount he left at his death. After some difficulty regarding a site had been met, the southeast corner of Robey and Madison streets was choseng a serviceable building was erected and George Noble Carman was made director of the Lewis Institute. In fulfilling the mission planned for it by its founder, the Lewis Insti- tute has come to occupy 'a unique position among schools. It is essentially broad in its conception, being not an academy merely, nor a technical school, nor a college, but a closely combined union of the three. It receives boys and girls from the grammar school, and, after taking them through the preparatory course, offers either literary or scientific work through two years of college, or the engineering course to the degree of M. E. During the first two years of study, all engineering students are expected to take literary work with the technical. This affords them the opportunity to make a careful decision as to their course of study, and at the same time gives them a less one-sided training than would be possible in a strictly teclmical school. Besides this, the Lewis arrangement allows the literary student to take up some work not strictly literary, or the technical student some work not strictly technical, in departments far better organized than would be possible in an exclusively literary or technical school. This close relationship existing between the literary and engineering departments makes possible the association of all the students in the literary societies, musical and athletic organizations, and in the social life generally, a pleasant relationship which is kept up by the alumni association. 23 Another important advantage, one offered by few schools of equal size and rank, is the personal advice and assistance of the director in laying out the courses of study, a point of marked superiority over the system in many insti- tutions. Finally, these advantages are brought within the reach of any ambi- tious young man or young woman. Aside from the scholarships awarded annually, the tuition at Lewis Institute is less than at almost any other school of equal rank. This is the sort of school, we believe, that Allen C. Lewis planned, a school eminently practical, of broad scope, and within the reach of all. NVhat Peter Cooper's work has done for thousands in New York Allen C. Lewis' work is doing here in Chicago. SECRET SOCIETIES IN SECONDARY SCHOOLS N the secondary schools of the-country there are two policies .fol- lowed with regard to fraternities. In some schools fraternities are discouraged and even forbidden, and in certain-cases there has been resort to litigation. The authorities of these institutions maintain that boys in secondary schools are too young for the affiliations of the fraternityg that the fraternity causes them to waste time, and is thus a detriment to study, and that it too often encourages snobbislmess or artificial distinctions based on wealth. V ' In other schools fraternities are tolerated, recognized, and even en- couraged, upon grounds that they cause the formation of pleasant associa- tions, that they are not detrimental to healthful student life, and that they encourage school spirit. The question of allowing the existence of fraternities in any secondary school has recently been revived, and is now being discussed. The policy of the Lewis Institute is established. Fraternities and sororities are recog- nized by the school to the extent that they are allowed to post their notices in the school lobbies, on the condition that a member of the faculty be chosen as an honorary member. who shall act as the adviser of the organization. 24 - PUBLIC SPEAKING AT LEWIS INSTITUTE URING the year marked advance has been made in the 'mrt of public speaking at the Institute That 1S to say, provisions have I c 1 c c c been made which provide for much more public speaking than . - 1 . A . 0 Cs C C 5 ever before The Institute has long iequxred '1 certain amount of public speaking as part and parcel of the regular English work. One day a week is taken for this work, the recitation period being devoted entirely to speakingg each student is expected to deliver a speech in the sense that he must make a plea, and then endeavor to defend it, and to win his audience over to his side. Each individualis work is carefully criticised by the in- structor in charge, such criticism being written out, so that the student may have it for private reference. This plan of work brought about such excellent results that the Institute decided to give more prominence to public speaking. In accordance with this policy, it was announced that to the best three speakers in the Allen C. Lewis Society debates during a certain period of time three prizes should be awarded, to wit: the first prize, one yearls tuition at the Institute, the second prize, two quarters' tuition, and the third prize, one quarter's tuition. This year these prizes were won by Messrs. Faust, Moulton and Servis, in the order given in the awards notice. It is understood that the same prizes will be offered annually by the Institute hereafter. In addition to these features, and probably in some way as a result of them, public speaking has advanced in the debating societies of the Institute. The Collegiate Girls' Club has devoted considerable time to debates. The Current Topics Club has done much excellent work in its weekly meetings. Mr. George Faust, winner of the first prize in the Allen C. Lewis contests, is a member of the Current Topics Club. In the Parnassian Society, which is the collegiate men's club, more work in debating has been accomplished this year than ever before, and it is thought that the standard of excellence has been raised considerably. One valuable feature was a compulsory debate held during the winter quarter, a contest which aroused wide interest in the society and which resulted in some excellent speaking. Messrs. Beezley, I-Iazlewood, Stickel and Iuhnke were chosen as the representative speakers of the society. Undoubtedly public speaking will receive much attention at the Institute during the coming year. I 25 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS HE editors desire to make grateful acknowledgment to Director Carman, to Doctor Lewis and to Professor Mann for timely and C .

There were nine charter members: Charles E. Bates, Walter S. Rogers, Eugene H. Hutchins, Charles Dvorak, XValter S. Yan Osdel, Ernest XV. liohlsaat, Cameron Morrison, and Her- man E. llulkley. Nothing, perhaps, could illustrate more vividly the growth of the society in its seven years of existence than the fact that the records for the Spring Quarter, 1903, show thirty-seven names as active members. The constitutional limit is forty. One hundred and forty-five members, including the original nine, have signed the constitution of the society since tl1e start. The following men have been presidents of the Parnassian Society up to 1903: they are arranged in the order of their elec- tion: Messrs. llates, Gustafson, Rogers, ISM-973 Messrs. Head. Peck, Eaton, 1897-98, Messrs. Goodwin, Dewey, Smale, 1898-99: Messrs. Tay- lor, Robertson, Smale, 1899-19003 Messrs. lloughton, Bailey, Chandler, IQOO-OI, Messrs. Hora, Bailey, Hegner, 1901-O25 Messrs. Erwin, bluhnlce, Beezley, 1902-03. The Parnassian Society is a literary and debating society, admitting members from the Academic and Collegiate Departments of the lnstitute. 34 The society holds a meeting every Friday afternoon, at four o'clockg proof of the interest in these meetings may be had from the fact that the society rarely adjourns until after six, resulting cold suppers notwithstanding. -In 1897 a ,room was provided for the society, at the dedication of which speeches on theiaims and methods of literary societies were delivered by Dean McClintock, of the University of Chicago, and by Director Carman, Dean Greeson, and Professor Mann, of the Institute faculty. It is under- stood that when the new building is erected this summer, a new room will be fitted up to serve as the permanent quarters of the society. There have been, up to May 1, 1903, two hundred and twenty-five meetings of the Parnassian Society. Besides the literary programmes and the special meetings devoted to business, this grand total includes twenty-one joint sessions with the Collegiate Girls' Club. These joint meetings 'orig- inated in a meeting held in the Institute auditorium at the end of the Spring Quarter of 1897, when the club and the society joined their forces in giving a varied programme, consisting of an oration, a play, and music. The joint meetings are now held every four weeks, and are among the most enjoy- able features of the Parnassian life. The two organizations alternate in giving a programme, while frequently supper and dancing follow in the even- ing, to broaden the social life. The quarterly dramatic entertainments are furnished -by members of the Parnassian Society and the Collegiate Girls' Club, but as these are to be discussed in another portion of the Animal, we will not treat of them here. In regard to this year's work it may be said that discussions and debates have been held on the following topics: The Coal Strike, The Tariff, Suffrage Qualifications, A Shortened College Course, Incorporation of Trades Unions, The Venezuelan Affair, and The Trusts. During the Winter Quarter a debate was engaged in as a com- pulsory contest. The gentlemen of the society discussed the question of Compulsory Arbitration. Professor Mann acted as judgeyand an- nounced that the four men who were thus selected to represent the society were, in the order named, as follows: Beezley, Hazlewood, Stickel and Juhnke. During the Spring Quarter considerable attention has been given to practice in parliamentary law, with good results. The literary work of 35 the year has been of an order calculated to increase the strength of the society, individually and collectively, and as such the work has been uni- formly successful. After its literary work the most valuable feature of the, society is the quarterly banquet, attended by both active and honorary members- The first banquet was held on january 22, 1897, and resulted in the custom of giving a quarterly banquet. These banquets afford old Parnassians an in- centive and an opportunity to visit their Alma Mater and to meet the active Parnassiansg speeches are made during the evening, and jollity and good fellowship thrive apace.

Ou January 20, 1897, seventeen young ladies of the Collegiate Department of Lewis Institute organized a club. the object of which was to promote the social and intellectual life of the members. Until February IO the organization was without a name, but on that day the name Collegiate Girls' Club was decided upon. The early meetings of the club promised well for its success, nor XVC1'C these omens unful- filled. The club, meeting regularly every sec- ond Friday at 4:15, grew and prospered, al- though, to reveal a club secret. about IQOO-OI the interest of the members lessened and the condition of the club became precarious. In 1901 00 however. new entlutsiasm was aroused, and in September. 1902, the C G C entered upon its most successful year. lht xx oik of this season has consisted largely of debates on practical ubjuts but the Clllll has also provided entertainment for three joint ses- sions has gixen a l'CCClllIl0ll to the Stephanotis Society. and has had three election spieads. 38 THE COLLEGIATE GIRLS' CLUB To the oliicers an editor has been added, who publishes the news, gossip, and literature of interest to the club at each meeting. It has been made more difficult for girls to obtain membership in the club, and to this is attributed in part the present successful condition. The presidents this year have been Misses Kohlsaat, Seton-Thompson and Bendix. The present officers are Charlotte Bendix, President, Edith Hall, Vice- Presidentg Isabel Kilner, Recording Secretary, Louise Hitchcock, Corre- sponding Secretaryg Mildred Collins, Treasurer, Alice Carey, Marshal, Zella Bissell, Editor.

' 'QPQIJQY J .Current C pics Klub 4111 , S l-I S a distinct organization, the Current Topics Club came into being during the first quarter of the school year IQO2-03. The successor m of a little known and practically inactive society, it was given im- petus, energy, and ambition by the notable interest in debating which has marked the past year at Lewis. To say that this alone accounts for the growth of the society would be but to draw a hasty conclusion. Nevertheless, it must be admitted that the effect of this interest upon the club was immediate and efficient. lleginning the year with but ten members, within one quarter its numbers increased to twenty-five, and the total mem- bership now stands at the creditable figure of thirty-seven. The name of the club indicates the material with which it worksg its object is the cultivation of ability to speak in public, both extemporaneously and from preparation. It has the secondary aim of arousing interest in the chief events of daily occurrence. This past year, the first of its existence, has been an honorable one to the Current Topics Club. There have been but two debates before the Allen C. Lewis Society in which C. T. C. men have not participated, thirteen men having represented the club in this way. 41 41 The programmes in the weekly meetings of the year have aroused interest among the members sufficient to vindicate the basic principle of the club, that genuine work alone will maintain a flourishing and prosperous condition. Political campaigns, both national and local, have been fought out in minia- turep much-mooted questions have been subjected to heated debate, crusades for reform have been proclaimed and agitated, and through all a spirit of good fellowship and good-natured raillery has prevailed. With pride of its yearis work, with good will to its fellow societies, and with hopes for a successful coming year, the club closes its first year as a Lewis Institute organization. The present officers are: President, T. I. Bolger, Vice-President, Chas. Albert: Secretary, C. McGrew: Treasurer, George Faust.

In due time the club was started under the name of the S V c , c S c , ' t, ' ' Ry - year English, decided to form a literary society. Miss DeLagneau Stephanotis Society, Stephanotis meaning worthy of a crown. The colors are those of the stephanotis flower, green and white. At first only students taking full work in the second, third, or fourth year were eligible for membership. However, 'in September, IQOI, the constitution was amended, and upon a unanimous vote first-year students were admitted. For two years the society was very small, and little was known about it in the school. However, it has grown materially, the membership being now over forty 5 and, through the kindness of the Collegiate Girls' Club and of the faculty, it has become better known. - The regular meetings are held every other Friday, there being four social meetings and one business meeting each quarter. The programmes consist of literary reviews, debates, and papers. At the end of each quarter there is an open meeting, to which all the friends of the club are invited. It has been the custom in these meetings to give musical or literary pro- grammes. However, three times plays have been given. This quarter the society is to give a burlesque on Shakespeare. The charter members of the society were: Gertrude Ellis, Eldora Ellis, Alberta Hammon, Violet Fraser, Louise Murray, Louise Birkhotf, Ruth Chadwick, Grace McCasky, Louise Brown, Maud Pollard, Edith Amsden, Gertrude VV. Tyler, Bessie Bradtstram, Ethel Midgley, Katherine Plumbley, Edna VVright. The present officers are: President, Helen White, Vice-President, Mabel Aldridge: Secretary, Marjorie Howeg Treasurer, Emily Frakeg Corresponding Secretary, Bess Gill.

Lewis Society is the only or- ganization of Lewis Institute which includes all the members of the Collegiate and Academic Departments. it may be well to give a brief sketch of its history before mentioning the particular Work done this year. The first regular meeting of the collegiate and academic students as an organized body was held on November 22, 1899. At that meeting the name Allen C. Lewis Society' was chosen in honor of the founder of the Institute, and -Iames H. Stall was elected the first president. Since then the society has met at intervals more or less regular, and has had the following presi- dents: James H. Stall, George Adams, Grace McCarthy, John Smale, Ralph Chandler, Rayna Simons, Joseph Hora, Cora Kohlsaat, and Alexander Bailey. At seventeen of the forty-four regular meetings debates have been held upon subjects of various kinds. In addition to these, stereotyped music and recitation programmes have been given, as well as lectures by such per- sons as Miss Jane Addams, the late Col. Parker, and Dr. Hiram VV. Thomas, and musical numbers by Mr. Frank VVinter, Mr. Reynolds, and others. Early last fall it was decided that a series of debates should be given under the supervision of the English department by the best speakers in each class. In October English 9 was represented by six girls in a debate on segregation at the University of Chicago. The following month eight students in English 7 argued on the reduction of the tariff as a remedy for monopoly, and in December English 5 considered the equally pertinent question of the advisability of the assumption by the state of Pennsylvania of control of the anthracite mines. The Army Canteen, Compulsory Arbitration, Irish Home Rule, and other subjects have been discussed before the society. In closing we can only say that if such good work continues, the Allen C. Lewis Society will long merit the support and co-operation of the students of Lewis Institute. AI.lCIE S1s'roN-THoMPsoN. 46 THE AUDITORIUM OF LEXVIS INSTITUTE The Classical Club HE Classical Club was organized May 17, 1897, by 'the instructors -A and collegiate students of Latin and Greek, with a membership of thirty-four. The club elected for its president the first year Mr. Lewis Gustafson. Since then the following have held that office: Miss Annie Mead C1898-ISQQD, Mr. WValter Van Osdell KISQQ- IQOOD, Miss May Chamberlain 11900-19o1j,. Mr. Henry Erwin fIQOI- IQOZD, and Mr. Gilbert Cady QIQOZ-IQO3D. The club has two purposes in view. It aims to supplement the class work and to promote sociability among the upper-class students of Latin and Greek. That the first purpose is in a great measure accomplished a glance at the programmes of this year will suffice to show. Three books have been reviewed-Mauls P1ompeii, The Sculptured Tombs of Hellas, and The Last Days of Pompeii, the first two with the aid of the stereopticon. A life of Martial and an epitome of Greek history from the Roman con- quest have been written by members and read before the club. Several letters of Pliny and a number of selected epigrams from Martial have been translated. Much of the success of the programmes is due to Professor Derham for his aid in the selection and preparation of the articles. In addition to the literary programme, members and friends have kindly helped to entertain the club with quartet numbers, piano, vocal and violin solos, the Boys' Glee Club appearing on one -programme. The last hour and a half of each meeting is spent profitably in social enjoyments. The meetings are held as much as possible on the second Friday of each month. The average attendance during the year has been about sixty. while our membership has increased to forty-four. 'We believe that the Classical Club has enjoyed a year of exceptional prosperity, due to the interest taken in it by its members and friends, and we believe that if it does not now, it soon will fulfill all the expectations of its organizers. G11.1uzu'r CADY. 48 The German Club I-IE German Club of the Lewis Institute is the final outcome of a - great deal of discussion. There was much debating as to whether such an organization could be made successful without taking more time than busy students could well afford to give. Naturally the question soon came up as to how the organization was to be effected. It was settled by Dr. Jones' advanced class taking the matter into their own hands, under her guidance, and with the members of this class as charter members, the club was formed, officers elected to hold office one year, and a committee appointed to draw up the constitution. Miss Ethel P. Andrus was elected Presidentg Miss Cora J. Kohlsaat, Vice-President g Miss Isabel L. Kilner, Secretary, and Mr. Raymond Wieboldt, Treasurer. Meetings were to be held every Monday, no dues were to be imposed and all students who spoke German or had studied it for one year were to be eligible for membership. A trip through Germany was thought desirable for a course of study for the year, as it was a subject which would call forth discussion-in Ger- man of course. The programme for one meeting took the form of a lecture in English on l'Faust, by Professor Cutting of the University of Chicago, February II, 1903, in the Lewis Institute chapel. Prominent among events taking place at Lewis Institute, and ranking amongithe most successful of all the numerous and arduous undertakings of the different societies, was the play, Die fourizalistcn, given Cin Germany March 28, IQO3, under the auspices of this club. The last meeting held was a general reception to all in the Institute interested in the German language. Conversation in groups on topics spe- cially assigned occupied the greater part of the afternoon, and later German refreshments were served. The method mentioned for promoting conversa- tion was very successful. and we expect to employ it again in the future. Isrxmzr. L.

They knew that if for a whole year they neither lead, wrote noi spoke a wold of French, their previous study would count for almost nothing. So they took the matter to the one teacher who is ever willing to promote an interest in France and her language, and she with her usual readiness suggested the formation of a French club. ' Acting upon her suggestion, a number of students gathered in room 20 early in the fall, and under her direction organized Le Cercle Fran- cais. At this meeting the following officers were elected: President .........................,.. .. ............ .-Xlda Rl. Stephens Vice-president . ...Fdward Gannon Secretary . . . . . .Doris ll. Schaefer Treasurer .............................................. Frank Doyle Our aim is, Hrst of all, the advancement of French conversation. Then we desire to get as much knowledge of French customs, conditions, ideas and institutions as we can through the language itself, for we feel that we never get a good idea of the country, life and feelings of a people till we 50 read or hear what they have to say in their own tongue. VVe also wish to furnish opportunity for public speaking in French. We have had pro- grammes which have provided for this, not only in extemporaneous speaking and debate, but also in recitation. Of course we have our social side. What would a club be worth without it? By our meetings we hope to become acquainted with those who speak or are studying French at the Lewis Institute, for the club exists as much for them as for those who are compelled to discontinue their study of the language. We, like all clubs, have our banner days. The days we all especially like are those on which we listen to lectures, given sometimes by the members of the club and sometimes by Mlle. DeLagneau. We have very beautiful stereopticon views at the lectures, for which we are also indebted to Mlle. DeLagneau. Our study in these lectures has thus far been of the beautiful city of Paris and its suburbs. Alfter we have surveyed the city we shall proceed to explore wild and rough little Brittany. The lectures occur every three weeks and are given in French. For music at these lectures we have been singing those delightful little rounds-but I need not mention them. 'Who does not know Frere Jacques and Bonjour, Pier1'ot,? Gne day we were entertained by a most interesting charade, 'fFacilite, given by some of the members of the club. It consisted of five acts, four of which represented the four syllables, and the last the whole word. After the charade chocolate and ladyfmgers were served, and all agreed that they had had an excellent time. ' We must not close without expressing our appreciation of the great part Mme. Forster and Mlle. Deloagneau have had in making our club the success it has been. All who have ever attended our meetings know that Mme. Forster is the life of our Cercle, while what would we do if Mlle. did not lead us in our singing, polish up our programme and help us in every way? ALDA M. STEPHENS. SI mum ' , The Science and l .

THE SCIENCE AND ENGINEERING SOCIETY Lewis lnstitute Mandolin Club HE Lewis Institute Mandolin Club was first organized in the spring - of 1899, with a membership of eight players. under the general management of Frank Price. During the following year the club was drilled into fairly good form by different leaders, one of them being Ira Owen, now leader of the Cornell Mandolin Club. In the spring of 1900 the organization was fortunate enough to secure as director Signor Salvatore Tomaso, under whose skillful training the club attained a very high reputation, not only in the Institute, but outside, satisfactorily fill- ing several engagements. So far as the writer can remember, the club first appeared in public on Washington's Birthday, 1900. The year IQOO-OI was a very successful year, the membership running up to fourteen or fif- teen and the club giving many creditable performances. At the close of the year 1900-01, the organization was practically dis- solved, all the members leaving the school, some going into business and others taking up collegiate work. No meetings were held during the year 1901-02, and it was not until the fall of 1902 that rehearsals were again resumed. Nearly eight weeks passed before the club of 1902-03 got its start. Great difiiculty was experienced in obtaining a leader suitable for the club. Mr. J. B. Corbett, of the American Conservatory of Music, was finally secured as directoi'. Under his management the work progressed very rapidly, and it was not long before the club was able to organize, the officers being elected as follows: Ralph Shoemaker, President, Mil- dred Wiggins, Secrctaryg Orlin Wahl, Librarian. The membership soon exceeded that of any previous year. The club of IQO2-O3 has been very popular, and has succeeded in filling its engagements in a manner credita- ble to the Institute. The present membership of the club is as follows: Misses Isabel and Louise Kilner, Mildred VViggins and Messrs. Robert Baum, Wm. Fitz- gerald, Alfred Hermann, Byron Nelson, Ralph Shoemaker, Ray Stewart and Orlin Walil. I.

In 1899 a constitution was drawn up and signed by fifteen boys interested in glee club music. Mr. Clippinger was the first director and Robert I-Iegner the first president. Mr. Collins served as director and A. D. Bailey as president dur- ing the second year. Mr. Payden and Dr. Campbell were the next directors, with A. D. Bailey as president. This year Mr. Tenney has had charge of the club, while Gilbert Cady has served as thepresident. WVith the organization of the Boys' Glee Club began the annual con- certs, in which all the musical societies of the Institute unite their forces. These concerts, under the supervision of Messrs. Payden and Campbell, have done much to promote the success of the club. This year the work has been particularly commendable, due directly to the leadership of Mr. Tenney. His thorough experience and his delightful personality are fully appreciated. The songs of the Boys' Glee Club have covered a wide range, but those dealing with Lewis itself have called forth the greatest applause. Many readers will remember When the Shades of Profs Have Gathered on the Other Shore. This year a Lewis medley, arranged by Mr. Tenney, has proved a very successful number in the club's programmes. At the annual concert, given May 8, the Boys' Glee Club furnished' three numbers, A Vocal March, The Phantom Band, and The Grass- hopper.

DeLagneau and Dr. Lewis. They directed the music for two years, but in the third year Mr. Collins took charge, and he, in turn, was succeeded by Mr. Payden. Under his leadership the club gave several concerts in the neigh- boring snbnrbs. . Last vear Dr. Campbell had charge of the music. The chief work of the club was in furnishing music for chapel exercises and nothing very pretentlons was at- tempted, as the club was small. This year Mr. Tenney has had charge, and his enthusiasm and hard work have made the club what it is. This spring the club sang Night of Joy, arranged from Strauss, at the annual concert on the Sth of May, and ends the year by singing at the commencement, june 18.

Last October Mr. Tenney became director of the chorus, and under his leadership it has become a large organization. The chorus includes the Boys' Glee Club and the Girls' Glee Club and about twenty additional students. Great praise is due Mr. Tenney for his untiring work for the chorus. Beside the members of the glee clubs the following are members of the chorus: NIAURICE BERNSTEIN, FRANK MERRILL, JAMES Cox, J.

C X o I gave to the new collegiate girls on the fifth of October was the first social event of the year. Beside good music there was a mock debate: Resolved, That ping-pong is a more potent factor in society than pink teas. The pro- gramme was followed by refreshments. Queer sights and sounds greeted those who came to the Red Room to be enter- tained at the first joint meeting of the year. JJ Everything was in keeping with Hal- lowe'en, for, as the bulletins announced, the spirits were to hold high carnival. In every nook and corner grim Jack-o'-lanterns gazed at the beholder, and over all there was a mystic air. In a very clever way the poem Lochinvar was acted in pantomime. Following this. mysterious ghosts and witches held forth, and the ghosts, muttering incantations over a huge caldron, uttered fateful words of prophecy. Miss Schaefer had offered her home for the evening, and to it the societies adjourned for dinner. After dinner the evening was spent in Hallowe'en games. The first gym'l dance was given by members of the girls' gym- nasium classes on November 21. The shaded lights, the pretty girls in their light dreses, and the excellent music, all combined to make the dance delightful. F November 27 the Parnassians gave a clever vaudeville entertain- ment. A parody on Miz Dooley was a source of much amusement. The numbers were announced in true vaudeville style. Moving pictures and a U S6 burlesque on Sousa's Band were well worth mentioning. judging from the laughter and applause, everyone enjoyed it. At 6:30 a dinner was served, and a dance in the girls' gymnasium concluded the entertainment. A reception was given to the members of the Stephanotis Club by the Collegiate Club on January 9. Progressive games afforded the enter- tainment. After the awarding of the prize, refreshments were served. Miss Arnold expressed to the C. G. C. the thanks of the Stephanotis. The members and their guests danced during the remainder of the afternoon. Ringling Brothers and Barnum and Bailey are side-shows when com- pared with the burlesque circus given in the auditorium by the C. G. C. on February 6. The members were as well trained as the animals, for it was impossible to distinguish who the ones that took part were. Like all other circuses, this began with a procession. Peanuts, popcorn, pink lemonade, and sawdust gave to the performance the true air of a circus. The daring feats of the bareback rider and tight-rope walker filled the won- dering audience with admiration. The wit of the clowns and the unpre- cedented wisdom of the animals called forth great applause. On the whole it was pronounced a great success. At 6:30 the two societies sat down to a banquet. A dance followed from 8 to II. The fourth joint meeting of the C. G. C. and Parnassian took place on February 27 in the auditorium. Parodies on King Dodo, the Wizard of Os, the Sultcm of Sulu and the Prince of Pilscu were given. The music was furnished by the Parnassian orchestra. Owing to the lateness of the hour, the dance which usually follows the program was omitted. Upon the evening of the 21st of February the girls' basketball team gave a.dance for their friends in the girls' gymnasium. As at the first gym dance, everything was prettily decorated in red. At 8 o'clock most of the guests had arrived and the dancing commenced. One corner 37 of the room, fitted up as a frappe booth, was the most popular spot in the gymnasium. The dance continued until 10:30. On April 24 the C. G. C. departed from the usual style of programme for the joint meetings and gave a play, entitled the Chaperon. Consid- ering the short time in which the players had to prepare, the play was a success. Dancing followed the programme until dinner was served. Despite the fact that there was an absence of host, hostess, and young men, everyone declared it to be a most enjoyable evening. Although the relay meet held on the Ist of May was exciting and interesting, the dance h'eld after it was no less interesting and pleasing. The fraternities and sororities were out in force, and the attendance was about two hundred and fifty. At the north end of the hall stood Doc De Groot half hidden by a monstrous punch-bowl, from which with a free hand he dealt out frappe to all comers. The whole affair was'in the nature of a farewell to the old gym, and that fact was evidently appreciated by those in attendance. - After the fourth annual concert given by the musical clubs on May 8, the girls' gym was filled with dancers. In spite of the crowd the dance went on merrily, and not until II :go did it cease. The calendar for the rest of the quarter is as follows: june 5.-Joint meeting of C. G. C. and Parnassian Society. June 6.-Iota Beta Phi dance. June 11.-Current Topics Club banquet. june 12-Parnassian Society banquet. June 18.--CO111lT1Cl1C6l'l16l1t Exercises. June 19.-Quarterly play.

This entertainment has generally taken the form of a play oi play s, after which an informal dance is held for the friends of the members of the two societies. These enter- tainments have always been openg that is, the society members have been given the tickets to distribute among their friends, the two societies sharing the expense equally. However much of an uncertainty the quarterly play may once have been, it is now a certainty, and without it the quarter's work would not seem complete. The programmes, which were at first of a rather simple nature, have gradually become more pretentious, and the work required to produce them has increased from year to year. At first the regular programme committees of the two societies, with the kindly aid of one or two of the faculty, selected the plays and the players, who were picked at random from the members of the two societies. This, however, was not entirely satisfactory, for the committees changed every quarter, and by the time a new committee had been installed, the play selected and the parts assigned, the quarter was so far gone that it was only by the greatest effort on the part of the dramatic coach that the play could be got ready at the proper time. Now there is in the societies what is known as a dramatic committee, whose business it is to select the plays and players and to attend to the production of the whole entertainment. Three members of the committee are elected by ballot from each society, and they hold office for the full school year. What is known as the dramatic stock company has also been formed. At the beginning of each quarter all those who desire to take part 39 in the final play and feel that they have the time to devote to it sign for the stock company. From this list the cast is picked. All the members of this company are given a trial before the committee and the coach in charge of dramatics, and the parts are then assigned. Dr. Lewis, the head of the English department, is always an honorary member of the dramatic com- mittee, and the good work which it has done in the past is largely due to his aid and advice. For the play given just before the Christmas holidays, the players are chosen with no special preference as to class or the length of time one has been a member of the society. For the play at the end of the winter quar- ter, however, the players are chosen as far as possible from the freshman class and the new members of the societies, while for the final play at the end of the school year the seniors are shown marked preference. In fact, the June play is now almost invariably spoken of as the senior play, and it certainly does fill the place of what is the senior class play in other insti- tutions. - Besides the comedies and farces which have been given during the past six years, some standard plays have also been very creditably repro- duced. Some of the plays given arc: Barbara, The Albany Depot, Christmas Boxes, The Cape Mail, McCribben Sues the City, Sweet Lavender, and The Rivals. Last December The Cricket on the Hearth was played with the following cast: john Perrybingle, Craig B. Hazlewoodg Mrs. Perrybingle, Grace D. Bissell, Caleb Plumber, Alex D. Baileyg Tacketon, Howard Williaiiisg Edward Plumber, Bradford Jones, Bertha, Edith Hallg May Fielding, Lela Barnard, Mrs. Fielding, Mabel Forbesg Tilly Slowboy, Cora I. Kohlsaat. For this play we were exceed- ingly fortunate in having the manuscript of Joseph Jefferson. That grand old man very kindly offered it to us, an honor which was very highly ap- preciated. In March two of W. D. Howells' plays were given, Bride Roses and The Garrotersf' The former was played by Gertrude Gaskins, Claire Samels, Ethel Wortliiiigtoii, Herman Spoehr and Edwin Pridham, and the latter by Harriett Robertson, Alice Carey, Portia Carnes, Ruth Chad- wick, Harvey Lemon, Ioseph Stickel, Edwin Lawlor, Howard Servis and Eugene Hall. The plays for the spring term have not yet been definitely decided upon. 90 warm. - Die Journalistenn , . PRESENTED IWARCII 7, 1903.

V that Freytagls -Iournalisten was presented in the auditorium of the Institute. Most of the cast were selected from the third- year German classes, but on account of the sudden illness of Mr. Forster COberstJ a week and a half before the presentation of the play, Mr. Robert- son, an alumnus of the Collegiate Department, consented to take his part. For over two months we rehearsed, a part of the time under the super- vision of Mr. Kreiss, of the L. 'Wachsner Dramatic Company of Milwaukee. The night of the play Mr. Kreiss and another gentleman of the troupe came down with a supply of wigs and mustaches and made such a decided trans- formation in us all that we hardly recognized each other, and enjoyed much hearty laughter before the ordeal on the stage. The audience was largely made up of Germans and students from other schools, and it appreciated the performance very much, particularly the Piepenbrink scene, in which there was so much action. The German Consul was among the auditors. The house was well filled, and we were all grati- fied to have given Freytag's masterpiece so successfully.

The acts from L'Avare and Le Bourgeois GCllfllllO1T1lllCU show Moliere to the best advantage in comedy.

Last fall the football team did very creditable f . A 1 ' 'duigfh' work, losing but five of its hard games, which comprised a sched- ule of fifteen. The football season over, indoor baseball, basketball and track work occupied the time of the athletes, and excellent teams were pro- cured in each sport. That Lewis Institute is fast becoming prominent in athletics ls been ably demonstrated by the track team this winter. Our runners have cap- tured both the relay races in meets given by the First Regiment Athletic Association, and the open and preparatory forty-yard dashes in the last meet. These were the only Lewis entries, and this indicates that we had a fair chance of winning the meet if we had had men in the other events. Only an accident at Cincinnati prevented Lewis from carrying home the relay banner for the championship of Ohio. In the Northwestern University interscholastic meet on May 2, Lewis again made a great show- ing and surprised everyone by defeating Eckersall. Hyde Park's star run- ner. If we had made one place better in the high jump, we should have won the meet as well. A greater interest than ever before has been taken this year in physical training and development. VVe attribute this to the work of our excellent physical instructor, coach and trainer, Mr. E. B. De Groot, Pres- ident of the Society of Secondary School Physical Directors, and also to the encouragement given by the Director, Mr. G. N. Carman. That all might see the character of the work of the gymnasium classes, a free exhi- bition was given in the winter quarter, and it proved a great success. The work of each day in the week was taken up separately and splendidly illus- trated. But for the lack of one thing, Lewis Institute might stand at the head of all preparatory schools 'in the country in athletics. This can and will be overcome in time, and the time is not far distant. It is school enthu- siasm or school feeling. This encourages the men and urges them on. Give us more school spirit and see where Lewis athletics will be classed. CIIARLES F.

In two or three games. especially against the strong U. S. A., Fort Sheridan, the team outplayed and defeated heavier teams. During the whole season the team scored over twice as many points as did its opponents. The spirit of the team was good, every man working hard, and several showing marked ability.

Last year the team played six or seven games, and was, on the whole, successful. This year the team was exceptionally good, one of the best in the city, but the team did not have the requisite support and played only five games. Still, the record made by the team was excellent. Three of the teams in thc high school league, North Division, Joseph Medill, and VVest Division, were defeated by Lewis by decisive scores. North Division won the high school championship, while Joseph Medill was second. Evanston was the only school team which defeated Lewis, and as both North Division and joseph Medill defeated Evanston, this defeat was hardly decisive. More- over, Lewis had not played a game for several weeks and was out of practice. I The individual playing of every member of the team was of a high standard, and Savage and Mead in particular did work to which our vic- tories were largely due.

The scores speak eloquently, however, in behalf of the spirit and the quickly acquired skill of the team. Victory was not always oursg still, it was never far away. The contests were all close, and the playing nip-and-tuck. Good sportsmanship was generally in evidence. The line-up: Center, Alice Carey Ccaptainj 3 forwards, Emma Mason, Louise Speed, and Eva Hammong guards, Helen White, Effie Haarvig, and Imogene Smith fcaptainj. Leah Van Blarcom and Louise Birkhoff played on the team a part of the season. When Alice Carey resigned the captaincy, she was succeeded by Imogene Smith. , Unfortunately, gymnastic training for girls is not compulsory. If it were, the members of the girls' basketball team would not be reduced to the necessity of one practice game a day in a gymnasium totally unsuited for their purposes. An ample gymnasium for girls could work no possible detriment to any branch of girls, athletics, and it would surely work won- ders for basketball. Many girls in the Institute are interested in basket- ball, tennis, and in various kinds of athletics, but the matter of an inadequate gymnasium prevents any great increase in enthusiasm, or in the more tangible results, such as well-developed teams. Certainly it is true that the team this year accomplished much with little, so far as accommodations go. It is the earnest hope of the girls' basketball team that the near future shall bring increased gymnasium facilities. IDL -5 gr , 104 . :Iwi , IH 1 01 if' it ref IMOGENE SMITH. Track Athletics HE past year has been by far the most successful in the history of - track athletics at the Lewis Institute. Other branches of athletics have been successful to a more or less marked degree, but the track team has outshone all the rest. This fact is especially grati- fying to all Lewisites, in view of the fact that the policy of the Institute looks toward the promotion of gymnasium, track, and field athletics, to the ulti- mate elimination of football and baseball. Regular gymnasium and track athletics constitute the most legitimate department of school sports. They have not the dangerous and wasteful disadvantages of football and baseball. They do not require more than a half hour's daily practice, do not exhaust the contestants extremely, and hence they conflict least with their studies. For these reasons the policy of Lewis Institute is becoming more and more marked, on the part of both faculty and students, as favoring the clean, legitimate sports of the gymnasium, track, and Held over football and base- ball. At the beginning of the season the Lewis track team was small and entered but few events in the earlier meets. Nevertheless, at the first meet of the year our strength was shown by our victories in two events out of three in the Secondary School section of the First Regiment Athletic Asso- ciation meet. These events were the :forty-yard dash, won by Hogenson, and the relay race, won by Hogenson, Savage, French, Callan, Adams, and Delves. A little later a four-man relay team went to Cincinnati to compete in the Ohio state championship meet. These men, running in the following order-Hogenson, Savage, Delves and Adams-were beaten by the strong Hyde Park team of Chicago, but were able to defeat all the Indiana and Ohio runners. Our next contest was in Milwaukee, whither we went with the hope of capturing the Central Amateur Athletic Union banner in the relay race for secondary schools of the West. Thecompetition proved to be such that lack of good condition in one of our men served to defeat us. Deakin. 105 Savage, Callan, Delves, Adams, and Hogenson, running in the order named, were beaten by Hyde Park and by Milwaukee Academy. The final meet of the First Regiment Athletic Association in Chicago fcnnid our men in good condition, with the result that we were successful. Deakin won first in the open forty-yard handicap and second in the academy forty-yard dash, with Hogenson first. In the relay race, Savage, French, Callan, Adams, and Delves ran as named, and crossed the linish line well ahead of the nearest competitor, Milwaukee Academy. lVe next entered a four-man relay team in the meet given by the University of Chicago to select a team to represent the secondary schools of the WVest in the National Championship meet, to be held in Philadelphia. Our chances were injured on account of one man being unable to train for three weeks because of sprains. Callan, Savage, Adams, and Delves 1'2ll1 as named, and covered our school with glory. The strong Hyde Park team was the only team able to beat us, and that with one of our fellows scarcely able to run his qua1'ter. Hyde Park won the National Champion- ship with ease at Philadelphia. 106 On Friday evening, May I, the annual intersociety and intcrfraternity relay meet was held in the gymnasium, the last event to take place in the old gymnasium. In the interfraternity race, the Hrst scmi-final was run off be- tween the Delta Sigma team CC. True, G. Kreer, R. Doyle, and Fitzsim- monsj and the Kappa Sigma Phi team CBrannum, Marsh, Shepard, and Bristolj. The Kappa Sigmas won. The second semi-final was run off be- tween the Gmicron Kappa Pi team CLorimer, Fiirst, F. Graham, and Thatcherj and the Beta Zeta Phi team CL. True, VVhiting, Frank, and Spoehrj. The former won. The Omicron Kappa Pi won the cup in the final, with Miner in Fiirst's place. In the intersociety race, the Parnassian team CLawlor, Schaefer, R. Doyle, L. True, and Spoehrj defeated the Cur- rent Topics Club team f Miner, Nash, Snite, Moerdyke, and Meadj, and won the cup. ' The next meet was the interscholastic of Northwestern University, held on Sheppard Field, Evanston, on May 2. Here Hogenson lowered the Cook County record for the one-hundred-yard dash to 0:10 I-5, and defeated Stevens of Milwaukee, Matthews of Northwestern, Roddick of Racine, and Eckersall of Hyde Park. Cf these sprinters, Roddick holds the Central As- sociation interscholastic record at 0:10, and Eckersall is one of the best known high school athletes in the country. Just to clinch the thing, Hogen- son went out in the two-hundred-and-twenty-yard dash and, after setting the pace for the entire distance, won, giving Eckersall a second beating. Hogenson then completed the afternoon of star work by giving his team a lead in the relay, which was won by Lewis. In this meet Adams won the eight-hundred-and-eighty-yard run, French won second place in the run- ning broad ump, and McLeod won third place in the high jump. Lewis won second place in the meet with twenty points to Hyde Parkfs twenty-three. The Culver Military Academy next invited Lewis Institute out to a dual meet and ball game for Saturday, May 9. The boys were given a fine reception, and won both events, the meet by a score of 66 to 50, and the ball game by 9 to 4. Hogenson was the star again, winning the 0ne-hundred- yard dash, the two-hundred-and-twenty-yard dash, and the shotput, as well as second place in the hammer throw and third in the broad jump. Adams won the half-mile run. i The crowning victory of the season up to the date of publication of the 4411111101 was won at the Michigan interscholastic meet at Ann Arbor, on 107 May 23. Lewis won the meet with forty-two points to twenty-eight and one-half points of the nearest competitor, the Lewis boys breaking two records. Hogenson and Thatcher were easily the stars 3 Hogenson equaled two state records and broke a third, winning eighteen points, and Thatcher made ten feet eight inches in the pole vault, which is the second best record in the country. Hogenson won the one-hundred-yard dash, the two-hundred- and-twenty-yard dash, and the broad jump at twenty-two feet one inch, breaking the record. He was also second in the hammer throw and ran in the relay. Besides winning the pole vault, Thatcher won third place in the high j umpg Savage won second place in the discus and fourth place in the one-hundred-and-twenty-yard hurdles, and in the two-hundred-and-twenty- yard hurdles. Adams was second in the half-mile run, French second in the broad jump, Delves fourth in the quarter-mile, and Deakin fourth in the one- hundred-yard dash. The Lewis team capped the day's work by winning the half-mile relay. Delves, Adams, Savage, and Hogenson ran. H. SAVAGE. we 108 TRACK TEAM, '03 Basketball LINE-UP: l Center .... .... .............. G o ehring Guards .... .... .... S avage, Ray, Skillen Forwards ................................... Davidson, Falls, Delves The Lewis Institute basketball team had a very successful season, considering the available material left from the preceding year. Goeh- ring, captain and center, and Savage, guard, were the only old men to return. For several weeks at the start the team was crippled by the tem- porary absence of Savage from the school. Of the new men to make the team, three had had little experience, and the other two none at all in bas- ketball. This gave a squad of seven. After many practice games with Chicago high schools, it became evi- dent that Lewis had a good team. The games played away from the school were a pleasant feature of the season. Trips were made to Elgin, Whea- ton, and Naperville, in Illinois, and to Port Washington and Kenosha, in Wisconsin. The play of the team was very steady from week to week, and the boys played several games in a form which would have defeated any school team in the state. Except for one collegiate man, the team was strictly academic. Considering this fact, the Lewis team was out of class in nearly every game that was played. The higher teams were played because teams in the school's class were so easily defeated that the games lacked interest. That the team won most of its games was, then, a very crditable record in- deed. Two of the games were lost by the closest margin possible. It is pleasant to note the fact that two of last year's Lewis team, Touzalin and Whitney, were members of the West Side Y. M. C. A. team which has just won the championship of the Central A. A. U. HUGII RAY. IIO BOYS' BASKETBALL TEAM, '03 ' i Baseball, '03 i The baseball practice season i' at Lewis was very late, three weeks at least, in starting, because most of those who were on the basketball and indoor ball teams wished to try for the baseball team, and their schedules were very long. Aside from this, a more valuable prize than time was lost when Skel Roach, our coach who has helped our teams on to victory since '99, left us March Igth to coach the baseball team at the University of Mich- igan. XVe wish him many a suc- cessful season as a coach, and we take our hats off to him as a general good fellow. The candidates had received but a day or so of instruction from him when they were thrown upon their own resources.

HOFFMAN, BORG The schedule, which is a hard one, has been started very successfully, the first ten games resulting in seven victories for Lewis and one tie. Most of the remaining games are to be played out of the city, and this promises a season both enjoyable to the players, and, from present indications. a very successful one. FRANK GOEHRXNG II2 BASEBALL TEAM, '03 The Alumni Association HE Association of Collegiate Alumni of Lewis Institute was organized on June 17, 1899.

I N15 X Sally's Rocking-chair. HAT could it mean? NVhat is a valentine anyhow? Could Silas have made a mistake? She thought she had heard once of a Sain! Valentine, and she remembered a little girl friend of her childhood by that name, . whom everybody called Val. for short. Yes, Silas must have made a 'mis- take in leaving it at her house-and yet-she did not like to think that he had meant his gift for another. A sudden expression as of a daring thought flooded her features till her faded cheeks looked like the withered petal of a pink rose, yet, in spite of this gentle glow, she was a trifle shocked. Silas was always doing ridiculous things, but she never thought he'd get as blasphemous as that! Comparing her to a saint! Just think of itl However, she could not help hoping that Saint Valentine was a little extra nice, even for a saint. What could it mean? Yet here was this beautiful glossy stuff, falling in shim- mering folds from her loving arms to the little rag carpet at her feet: and here was a long envelope, of coarse grainy paper, bearing in Silas' cramped hand the words, A Valentine to my Valentine. Then she remembered. Long ago she had heard of sending little cards on St. Valentine's day, but she thought they were always love messages from lads to their sweethearts. She had only heard of such things-a valentine in person was an un- known objcct to her. Sally Holden sat down in her little plush rocker to think. This ugly little chair was the pride of Sally's life, and she sat in it only on great occasions. It resembled Sally, this little chair, for though to all appearances the worse for wear, yet it opened its arms kindly to all who approached it., and the song it sang on its squeaky old rockers was Wel-come, wel-come. Though Sally 'seldom sat in this chair because, through such dear associations of childhood and the beloved mother, long since gone to rest, she had come to regard it as almost human, yet she always had it ready for Silas when he made his Sunday evening call, in his meetin ' clothes and glossy plug. But on week days it was her company, her friend-in short, her family, to whom she talked and gossiped as much as she would to a flesh-and-blood sister. Sally was dreaming, dreaming in her little plush chair. Her new treasure, her glorious satin, had fallen unheeded to the floor, and lay there at her feet in a black shining mass. She was thinking of her girlhood, of her dead sister, who, when they were girls together, had often rallied her laughingly on the probability of her winning their 'mother's lovely satin gown by being the first to wed. Sally had always an- swered gravely that she should never marry. What a happy girlhood these two spent together! Then John came and carried Pen away, and soon sickness came to her, then shortly death. 4 Ever since her sister had been married in their mother's wedding dress, Sally had Hrmly believed that married women only might be the proud possessors of such riches. She started, and as her thoughts rushed back to the present she rose, wiping the tears away with her apron. Laying the unopened letter aside, sl1e picked up the satin and folded it gently, stopping now and then to give it a pat or to look at it 118 lovingly. Finally she laid it tenderly on the table and was taking up the note to read, when, on a strange impulse, she bent over the satin and kissed it, as one would kiss a little child in its cradle. To this lonely woman there was something sacred about her valentine. It brought back all that had been dear to l1er. I-Ier idea that black satin belonged to married women only had taken a strong hold on Sally, and she did not know whether it were right to accept the gift, but she reliected that Silas always did the right thing, and Silas had sent it. Taking the letter in her hand she drew it out of the envelope with trembling fingers, and as she scanned it her heart beat time with the little kitchen clock on the window shelf. This was what she read in Silas' scrawl: Dear Sally :-I calc'latcd to send ye one of them b'1ack shiny things long ago, but first there was Sister Anne to take care of, and then the mortgage to lift off the farm. But as crops has been good again nowadays, I want ye to take this, and, if ye don't object, me along with it. Your most humble servant, HSILAS GRAY.U She raised her face from the paper in dull wonder, which quickly turned into incredulity. Then her features relaxed and an expression of the utmost tenderness stole over them, when, throwing her great checked apron over her head, she fell back into the little chair, sobbing aloud. For a few minutes the silence remained nn- broken, except for Sally's weeping and the VVel-come, wel-come of the little plush rocker, which joined the song of Sally's heart and called thus softly for Silas. Suddenly she sat bolt upright, and, jerking at her apron vigorously, smiled through her tears with pride and exultation around the homely little room. I always knew only married folks had black satinsy I always said it. Oh, Silas, she cried, Silas! GERTRUDE E. SANDS. A STATE OF MIND. HEN I go into my mathematics class at nine o'clock in the morning, it is with - a foreboding that at last my gross ignorance must be exposed. As the U recitation proceeds I am conscious of a growing bewilderment. I hear l l things spoken of with which I seem strangely familiar, and yet I do not seem to know anything of them. I am filled with contempt for myself, as my mind refuses to grasp what seems so clear to others. This bewilderment gradually deepens into a heavy despair and dullness. My mind becomes a perfect blank. The words I hear have no meaning to me, although I hear them distinctly. Irrelevant thoughts throng into my mind. Soon a reckless frivolity takes possession of me. I am not disturbed by the fact that I have lost all track of the recitation. I feel inclined to laugh and whisper and poke my neighbor. But this mood in turn is swallowed up in an intense feeling of boredom. My only hope is to hear the bell. Centuries elapseg then the end comes. I am free. ZELLA Bissau.. ug Persian Literature T IS remarkable how very little is known in this country of the famous poets of Persia and their works. Mowlavi, I-Iafiz, Jami, and Saadi are the most distinguished of Persian poets. The name Saadi appended to his sayings and aphorisms in odd corners of periodicals is perhaps more or less familiar to the casual 1'eader. For the benefit of the student a suc- A einct sketch of the life of this great poet will here be given, with transla- tions of a few of his noteworthy aphorisms and a few stories from Persian wit and humor. Saadi was born toward the close of the twelfth century, in the beautiful city of Shiraz. He is said to have lived upward of a hundred years. For thirty years he traveled through various countries, studying the people of each, their ways and cus- toms, the rest of his life he spent in retirement and acts of devotion. In the latter part of his life he engaged himself in writing his famous works. Gulistan fthe Rose Gardenj is the most popular of his books. Its moral truths, clothed in poetic language, have- come to be common proverbs among the educated classes of Persia. The work is also used as a text book in large num-bers of Persian and Turkish schools. It has been translated into English by Mr. Francis Gladwin. In order that my readers may enjoy the fragrance of The Rose Garden of Saadi, I will quote a few of his aphorisms. Two persons took trouble in vain and used fruitless endeavors-he who ac- quired wealth without enjoying it, and he who taught wisdom, but did not practice it. How much soever you may study science, if you do not act wisely you are ignorant. The beast whom they load with books is not profoundly learned and wise, what knoweth his empty skull whether he carrieth books or firewood ? f'Affairs are accomplished through patienceg and the hasty failcth in his under- takings. I saw with mine own eyes in the desert a man who went slowly overtake him that went swiftly. The fieet steed was tired with galloping, while the 'camel- driver proceeded in an even, slow pace. A kingdom gains credit from wise men, and religion obtains perfection from the virtuous. Kings stand in more need of wise men than wise 1nen do of appointments at court. Although in the estimation of the wise silence is commendable, yet at a proper season free speech is preferable. Two things indicate an obscure understanding: to be silent when we should converse, and to speak when we should be silent. The sentiment so tersely expressed in the Chinese proverb, I-Ie who never re- veals a secret keeps it best, is thus finely amplified by Saadi: The matter which you wish to preserve as a secret impart not to everyone, although lie be worthy of confidenccg for no one will be so true to your secret as yourself. It is safer to be silent than to reveal a secret to everyone and tell him not to mention it. O wise man! Stop the water at the spring-head, for when it is in full stream you cannot arrest it. Another phase of Persian literature-the humorous-is exemplified in the follow- ing stories: A certain gazi read in books that any man who has a small head and a long beard is invariably a fool. Looking at himself in the mirror, he discovered that he possessed both qualifications. He reasoned to himself thus: My small head I can't make larger, but I can do away with most of my beard. So, holding his beard by hand, he approached a burning candle, intent upon spoiling one qualification. No- sooner had the hair caught fire than he let his hand go, and both his beard and mustache were consumed. Looking at the mirror with great surprise he declared indeed that what he had read in the books was true. A man went to a professional scribe and asked him to write a letter for him. The scribe excused himself by saying that he had a pain in his foot. A pain in the foot! echoed the man. VVhat a foolish excuse! I don't want to send you any- where. 'fVery true, said the scribe, but whenever I write a letter for anyone I am always sent for to read it, because no one else can make it out. Mmzzt FAREED AMEEN. . 0? is X20 Shooting the Rapids N a trip up the great lakes we stopped one windy morning at Sault Ste. Marie. Almost the First 'thing we noticed upon our arrival was the peculiar appearance of the lake at the .mouth of the St. Mary's River. The lake in general was moderately smooth, but here at tl1e entrance to the river the ' dark blue waters raged and foamed until in parts they tossed bunches of white spray. What is the cause of this unusual disturbance? we asked, and were informed that before us lay the St. Mary's Rapids. Of course, our curiosity being aroused, we started off td shoot these wonderful rapids. After following a small path for some time, we came to an open space, out from which there ran a small pier. On the pier, looking at us with stolid, motionless coun- tenances, stood a group of'three or four half-breed Indians. After we had named our desire and settled the price, two of the Indians slowly drew up a canoe devoid of seats, but having little rails extending at intervals from side to side, in all probability to keep the occupants from falling out. We took our places and were properly covered up with waterproof sheets. Then the two Indians, armed with poles, took their places-one at the bow and the other at the stern of the canoe. We pushed out slowly into the rapids. Gradually thecanoe glided more swiftly, and we were enjoying the fresh breeze in our faces, when suddenly there loomed up before us one of the many brown boulders scattered through the rapids. The bow ofthe boat was almost upon it, and, holding our breath, we looked in terror and entreaty at the guide. His face never changed a muscle, but, with a skillful move- ment of his pole, he guided the boat by the rock unharmed. Nor was this the only occurrence of the kind. Soon we had progressed far enough to breathe quite naturally whenever we avoided a' rock. Down we flew now. The waters on all sides were dashing, we could not hear eacl1 other speak, the Sault seemed far away, and Lake Michigan looked like the Atlantic Ocean. We held on to the canoe tightly, when suddenly all vision was cut off. Before us rose what appeared to be a veritable wall of water tipped with a feathery fringe of white. With our hearts in our mouths, we felt the boat rock, and experienced a sensation somewhat akin to that caused by the sudden start of an elevator. Soon, however, the world appeared again, and the one English-speaking Indian in the boat told us that we had passed the largest whirlpool in the rapids, and that had we gone six inches nearer, our boat would have been dashed to pieces. Gradually the boat glided less swiftly, the Hecks of foam appeared less often, the waters became calmer, and we were told that we had shot the rapids. ALDA M.

BROWN The Courting of Francois Thebautier 5 T WAS a dreary afternoon in early November. The trees stood bleak 33' along the road, with a few withered leaves still clinging to their bare 'Q branches The road was muddy. There were two yellow streaks of clay where wheels had gone and between them a rough, trampled ridge where horses had put their hoofs Pools of water glistened here and there in the gray light. A fine rain was falling. Along this muddy road in the drizzle plodded Francois Thebautier. His shabby coat was buttoned close to his body, his collar was turned up, and his blue tasseled cap was pulled down over his ears. Now and then he stopped and balanced himself on one foot as he leaned over to pick up his wooden shoe, which had stuck fast in the mire. This act was repeated often, and Francois grew tired of it. Besides, it was getting late. So he walked over to the edge of the road, where the brown grass, covered with wet, black leaves, gave him a firmer footing. Here he walked briskly. In his hand he carried a pair of fat white geese, tied together by the legs, and once in a while uttering a disconsolate protest. In the heart of Francois was joy and trem- bling, for he was going to the Pierrot farm on an errand of the heart. Fidele Pierrot was not much of a beauty. She was big and strapping, her hands were large and red, and her face was fat. Besides, she was loud and raucousg but Francois did not know that, and if he had known it would not have cared: he was loud and raucous himself. What he did know was that Father Pierrot raised good crops of barley, and that Fidele had sparkling eyes and a gay laugh. And he was carrying the geese to her for a gift. As the young man neared the house his heart started a pit-a-pat that made him uncomfortableg but he was a brave 'youth, and he walked up to the cottage. VVhen he knocked on theldoor he heard shouts of 1nen's laughter within, and had to knock again. In response to the second rap came the voice of Pierrot bidding him enter. He pushed in through a cloud of tobacco smoke. Ah! It is Thebautier. Come in! Going to the market, I see. Rather late for that, I should think. You know Bartholdi, don't you? Fidele, another glass. for 'l'hebautier! And the little old man plunged into a wave of volubility as he poured out the wine for the guest and handed it to him. 'WVe are making merry, you see. Drink l And Francois drank. He was too much taken aback with his reception to make his little offeringg and now in the presence of Bartholdi he was afraid. He sat down and put his burden on the Floor beside him. I-Ie thought he would wait till Bartholdi went away. Perhaps the old man would go away, too, to look at the cows and he could be alone with Fidele. Then he could give her the fowl. Or per- haps, when the milking time came, he could feign that he had to go, and on this pretext could follow her to the cowshed. Yes, that was better. He would wait. 124 Fidele moved about the room doing her work, and he watched her as she moved. Her father and' Bartholdi were talking about pigs and cows. Ordinarily pigs and cows deeply interested him, but just now they were exceedingly tedious, and when the two men spoke to him he gave them distraught answers. Gradually they ceased to address him. He was thinking what a fine girl Fidele was, and how soft and white her arms looked i11 the early twilight. It would be delightful, he thought. to live in this clean little house with the old man, and with Fidele as 11is wife. He could leave theplace where he was employed and virtually have a place of his own. The old man was getting feeble, and perhaps before very long would die. There were three cows now, and two horses. With a little close economy-what a pretty picture Fidelc made as she set the table! Three plates, he counted. And she smiled gra- ciously toward him as she put them on. l-le hadn't expected to stay to supper, but wl1y not, since she appeared to wish it? And he settled down to the anticipation. All at once he was aware that the table was set. and that Fidele had taken down the big bucket hanging by the door and gone out. Picking up his gift, Francois sprang to his feet and clattered after her. Then he stopped, for he saw-he saw the burly form of Bartholdi going down the path, his big arm around Fidele's waist, and old Picrrot looking after them in approval. That night roast goose was on the bill of fare at La Lune Argentine, and a yotmg Frenchman lay asleep in the rain beside the road, dead drunk.

Marie is off, still wondering. But she doesn't know that Mr. Arnold is Victor Arnold, that handsome man-that man of all men-and that is all Stella has been able to learn about him. Marie would not know a deep infatuation under this guise if she saw it. So she is puzzled. Stella is to ill to eat. She sends away a delicious luncheon with loathing-and starves. She is hungry. She is a little angry. She is extremely nervous, and with excellent reasons. il' at 'K' After two century-like hours a gentleman is announced. Victor Arnold, tall, nuscular, dark, and patrician-a prince of the realm in Stella's eyes-stands by her bedside. How very fortunate, thinks Marie, that the gentleman should chance to be so near, right here in the same hotel. He is a yachtsman, so they say. Arnold is all calmness, courtliness. He waits for the sufferer to begin. Cer- tainly he is a fine figure. And Stella, with her handsome head raised high on the pillows, seems like some fresh and rosy Hebe lost in dainty linens and filmy laces. He ponders, What can be the matter-Ah! yes, 'tis pulmonary. But that glorious color is not hectic! Vifell, what sad, strange things- and Stella says, with trembling resolution, I am very illg a testament must be made. Her voice is sweet, a woman's voice. I am alone, you see, she continues by way of another preface. Her lingers are making little creases up and down in the Japanese silk coverlet. Poor creature, whispers Arnold to himself. If I could do something-so beautiful-'tis really tragic. He prepares to write. ' 126 Marie's shoulders want very much to shrug, and she has to carry them jauntily into an alcove. Stella has, she goes on jewels, lying in the vaults in Dearborn street. And now she desires to leave all to- in a marvelous tone, such and such property, chiefly to-ah, she had not thought of that! , She faints, but not with weakness. Arnold gives her water, and she even feels his hand upon her forehead, like a caress. He is very gentle. She revives directly. Yes, leave everything to-to James Murray, able Seaman, of the Oriental and Occidental steamer VVarrimoo. He saved my life. Stella heaves a tremendous sigh of weakness, or relief, and the factitious cob- webs about her neck Butter in tune with her heart. - at M ee The business is over. Arnold will take the papers to the office of the registrar. He gets up, ready to leave. And Stella? Well, she has met him at last, and-and, but what next? This must not be the end. She is vaguely sensible that this delightful dream is fading into a commonplace mist. ' Oh! Mr. Arnold. You shall fetch the papers back to me? She comes danger- ously near a pout. Arnold really appreciates loveliness, He is asking himself if he ever saw so round an arm. He says, politely, Certainly, if you wish it. They will be ready on VVednesday. He steps nearer, meets her eyes with a kindly glance that is enchanting, and adds, If you do not object seriously, I should like Mrs. Arnold to come and see you. She is a capital nurse. S. f 'v fy 'wp-ffm if A Oilily ','7i A 127 Borer l-lorrihcusn I-IEN we boys of Branksome School began to study Physiology a great - change occurred in us, a change which lasted fully four days. Lads who , U , had thought that they were merely indestruetible leathery bags now dis- l l covered that they were very fragile machines, just fairly filled with deli- cate organsg and with the dread of hurting themselves upon them they walked around with grave faces, slowly and carefully, and held their hands carefully to their sides, as if they were filled with china or dynamite. Even fighting ceased, and the more pugnacious began to resume the countenances they were born with. At dinner food was no longer bolted, but was carefully chewed and deliber- ately swallowed, and some even went so far as 'to leave the table feeling hungry. These things were true of all but Jim. Jim never was very athletic anyway, but he always was a glutton, and as he had never felt sick he said he didn't see the use of being so jolly careful. But the abstinence of the others pleased him exceedingly, as there was less pudding eaten by them at dinner, and he could get a larger share. Dick was the very opposite of Jim, and being thirteen years old-two years older than any of us--and exceedingly energetic. was the accepted cock of the walk. . In our dormitory there were eight eots, one for each boy. sct side by side, with a space of three feet or so between. Dick's and mine were at one end of the room, Jll1'lYS at the other, and next the wall. This gave him one secluded side at least, and generally he went to bed with a bag of sweets under his pillow, and these he devoured when we were asleep. One night-it was during the fad of Physiology-Dick awoke me. It was about half past ten. That little pig of a Jim has brought a lot of grub to hed with him, nuts, too, I think. Listen. I listened, and from Jim's direction I heard the sound of something being cracked between teeth. Get up and get some, I said. Too late, Dick answered, he's been eating for half an hour, I think, and it must be almost gone, and he sighed. Then he said more cheerfully: But tomorrow I'll punch him till he tells me why I punch, and it'll take him a long time to own up, and with this delectable thought for comfort, he turned over and went to sleep. I followed suit. My sleep was full of dreams. One was that I was hunting, and had wounded a lion, so that it groaned. This woke me. Still I heard sounds of pain, but they were far from lionlike. In fact, I recognized them as coming from Jim. Now and then they rose almost to an agonizing squeak. I awoke Dick, and he listened a moment. and then chuckled. Glory! he whispered, Jim's eaten too much for once, and then l1e raised l1is voice and asked in a very sympathetic tone, VVhat's the matter, Jim? Oh-h! Oh! O--h! I don't know! I never had it before! I'm dyin'l came back the sobbing answer. Dick jumped cheerfully out of hed: I followed. By the gray morning light we could see Jim sitting up in bed, his head on his knees, and his hands pressed to what we called the bread-basket. Is it your heart P asked Dick in the same sympathetic voice. HI dunnog are hearts down here? Oh! said poor Jim. 128 num-L Some people's are, 'specially when you eat too muehg it drops, and you die, Dick answered comfortingly. The unfortunate Jim wailed afresh. Dick's foot felt something: he stooped and picked up the shell of a Brazil nut. There was a small heap of them under Jim's bed. Instantly a most diabolical idea came into Dick's head. Never mind, old man, he said, I don't think it's your hearty your heart is nearer your neck. What's the pain like? Like something eatin' me all up inside, and twistin' an' jumpin', said Jim, as he rocked his bent-up body. Mv uncle died of something just like that, said Dick in horrorg no, it couIdn't be that that you have, he continued, musinglyg it was in Brazil. Brazil? Oh! Brazil! I've got it! What is it? Oh! No, you couldn't have it, said Dick firmly, I'l! tell you about it. It's called the Borer Horrificus. It's a little insect that lives in Brazil nuts- what's the matter, Jim? he asked, as Jim howled afrcsh. But ,Tim only blubbered and sobbed. Dick continued: The only way you can swallow Borers alive is to eat Brazil nuts in the dark and in a hurry. If you eat more than six nuts there is very little hope of- I ate 'levcnl I ate 'levenl an' two seemed bad! roared the terrified Jim. What! Eleven of those terrible things? O, poor Jim! Wait till I get my book, though, there may be hope ! said Dick, and he hurrried over to his locker. T By this time all the boys of the dormitory were gathered in a delightful horror around the writhing Jim. If Jim died, they would have a holiday and a funeral, and they could talk sadly of Hpoor Jim who had died. Besides, his mother might write to them to describe his last moments, and might even ask them to dinner. And each boy began to feel responsible and important. Dick returned with a book-I afterwards found it was Robinson Crusoe-and going to the window turned over the pages till he pretended to find what he wanted. Then he read a moment and ejaculated: This is awful! I'd better not read it! jim began to sob louder, and little Simpson commenced to sniff. The others eagerly begged Dick to read. Then he began, in rather quaint language for a medical book: Borer Horrificus is one of the most deadliest of things. It is an awful insect sometimes found in Brazil nuts. But it is not dangerous unless they are bolted in the dark. Then the terrible creatures can't be seen, and are not chewed np. They get into a fellow alive, and soon eat him so that he's only a hollow shell. They eat everything up. If more than six nuts are eaten thcre's very little hope for the dying victim. Here Jim's roaring became so loud that Dick feared the master would hear, so he continued: Yet there is a chance left! At this Iim's groans ceased, so that he might hear his salvation. Dick proceeded: When the Borers have started work, the best plan is to cut the fellow open and burn sulphur in him! Jim screamed, and a hand was laid on Dick's shoulder. He turned and looked into the master's face. Richard, said the doctor, come to my study at ten, and, he added with a face trying hard not to smile, prepare for an external attack of Birchus Rodicus. Now go to bed. And, James, a little castor oil will be good: there's nothing like it for Borer Horrificus K. 129 side. Verily the lot of the grind is hard.

H. WILLIAMS. ln the Lewis lnstitute Lobby Enter the building, go right to the stair-- Up one, nay, two flights, and then you are there. If half past the hour no person you'll greet So you walk to the window and there take a seat In the Lewis Institute lobby. At the left 'gainst the wall there is a large grate, And 'abo,ve hang the pictures of three men of state, Who gaze from the canvas with most kind- ly stares At the carpet, broad table, and upholstered chairs In the Lewis Institute lobby. This is the lobby, but as yet you've not found The numerous bulletins that are hung up all 'round, 131 I-lung up to attract the attention of all, On the pillars that stand 'twixt the lobby and hall In the Lewis Institute lobby. But now what is this that strikes on the ear, 'l'he gong of a clock and a noise we iirst fear' 7 But soon we do know 'tis the noise stu- dents make When their hour it is up and their feces-s they take In the Lewis Institute lobby. First run through the hall a couple small boysg They chase up the stairs with all sorts of noiseg Their mothers should have them at home, some have said. And yet we do find them at Lewis instead, In the Lewis Institute lobby, And now from all sides there burst into view Whole crowds of young students, and old ones not few, Who all hurry 'for lockers to put away books, That they may return soon for an exchange of looks, In the Lewis Institute lobby. The lobby's now crowded and the clatter that's made Bids fair to put Babel way back in the shade, But now and again you'll distinguish a sound Which proceeds from some group that's standing around In the Lewis Institute lobby. Just to thc left, all stylishly dressed, Six or eight girls try to show off their best By hugging and kissing a young girl just 'come To see the proceedings and join in the fun In the Lewis Institute lobby. just in front a brightvfcllow is telling a tale, And the laughter he rouses is proof 'tis not staleg To the left a student is dunning a fellow Who signed for this book and at payment turned yellow In the Lewis Institute lobby. All this proceeds seven minutes or more, Nor during this time does the din ever lower, When all of a sudden the gongs do vibrate. And the students stop short, in a sec- ond vacate The Lewis Institute lobby. But though most of the students now hurry to class, There's sometimes a fellow, and most al- ways a lass Who will tarry a while and hang back from their work, And for a moment or two show inclination to shirk In the Lewis Institute lobby. But now appears on the scene a bold little man, XVho approaches the stragglers with open demand. He asks that they 'mediately vacate the hall, ' . For between hours at Lewis wants no one at all In the Lewis Institute lobby. And now you decide you'd best follow this rule, - And depart on the spot from this model school. So you go down the stairs. just the way that you came, And you may be sure the next hour brings the same In the Lewis Institute lobby.

Find he sat hirn in that place but five rninutes, and he was loth to rernain for the abomination of the place, and he went hiin horne sadly. Hnd when he had called unto hirn his son he spake unto hirn thuswise: My son, be not thou an evil-doerg keep thy foot from the ways of the wicked. Let not thine hand be given to the deeds of the chernist, nor thy skill to the ways of thein that burn sulphur. Yerily, l say unto thee, this day have I srnelt the rnost unearthly srnell that ever rnan srneltg yea, verily, it lingereth yet in rny 133 The day of fools The soothsayer He entereth He seeth He sitteth He smelleth He iieeth He calleth unto him his son He speaketh My son, do not these things For I have smelt a strange smel1 nostrils. For, as l went up into the house of Lewis and sat rne down there for quiet and rneditation, the spirit of the Evil One carne upon rne, and the fire and brirnstone of Hades, the offense of Sheol, was in the air. My son, let the scent of hirn of rnixed per- furnes ineet a rnan rather than he that burneth sulphur in his rnadness. For he that burneth sulphur doeth it to his sorrow, and he that sinelleth it hath no joy. Verily, sulphur rnaketh a srnell, and rnuch sulphur offendeth the nose. It putteth to Inock the hall of learning and the faculty thereof. It causeth the prof. to sneeze, and the solernn rnan. Though he struggleth to contain hiinself, it inaketh hirn to cough. For it filleth the air with haze, and to the gentle maiden it giveth the wheezes. Moreover, it is an aborni- nation in the sight of the Director, who looketh upon the school with gravity, and who speaketh unto it words of wisdorn. For it grieveth hirn sore, and he goeth about with a heavy heart, seeking whorn he inay detect. Flnd if he find the transgressor, he adrnonisheth hirn upon the frowardness of his ways, and straightway he fireth hirn. Wherefore, rny son, put far from thee the sulphur while it is yellow, touch it not with a inatch which is lighted. When thou desirest to kill the rnoths of thy garret, use thou thy sulphur, but when thou enterest the hall of knowledge, put it off frorn thee, and thou shalt flourish like Balfour, the dearly beloved, who seweth not, neither doth he spin, and yet Solornon in all his And it was in the house of Lewis An odor like brim- stone pervadeth the air Thefevils of sulphur It shameth the wise Moreover, the Director hateth it He cletecteth the transgressor Wherefore, meddle not with sulphur The glories of Balfour, h fl 1 bl wi glory was not arrayed like unto this rnan t e my eo ec 3-af' jf?

I know not what at first to thinkg If it is French or maybe drink That thus does make him loudly say, In words so loud they jar the day, But You-auto-catit. then I soon begin to see A rabid healthfood crank is he, A fool not wishing anything, Who'll sit all day and eat and sing, You-aulo-catit. No Force for him. nor Malta-Vita. No Shredded Wheat, nor Try-a-bitag All these to him do not seem right. It is for this he makes his fight, You-auto-catit. But many months since then have gone, And not so loud is now his song. Yet still he passes good food by, And still he offers up the cry, You-aizto-Unfit. His face is wan. his cheeks are pale, His legs appear about to fail, But still upon his cane he leans, And feebly groans, then hoarsely screams, You-auto-eatit. There on the deathbed lies the lad. His pulse is low, the case is badg But to the doctor's stern command The patient makes this fool demand, You'-auto-catit. A sudden chill has through me passedg For as the poor fool breathes his last, The friends draw close, then turn away- His lips are set as if to say, You-auto-caiit. 135 HAROLD MORGAN The Parnassian Society Friends, Lewisites, schoolmates, all attention! We write here to praise them, not to censure. No evil they have done that we know of, And evil is often interred with men's bones: So let it be with Parnassians. The noble Jones Hath told you there's no book like the Annual. If it were so, it was a virtue and no fault, And hard hath Beezley worked to prove it so. Here under leave of Beezley and the rest- For Beezley is an honorable man, . So are they all, all honorable men- We shall write of the gay Parnassians. You all know of our old friend, Alex Bailey, But we say more of him some day, you'll know- And we should be honorable girls. Calhoun has made many captives at Lewis, Whose winning smiles did make him blush: Did this in him seem encouraging? When Morgan got high honors others have said, Harold, to succeed you must be made of sterner Yet he was with himself content and pleased, For was he not an honor able man? Cady was honored by the Classic Club To be the president of that stern crowd Although he thrice refused, was this ambition? Yet people say he is ambitious, Since every month his little list appears. And here is Lawlor, orator renowned, We all did love him once, not without cause, What cause compels us now to mourn for him? Oh foolish lad! He's joined the Delta Sigs. stuff Spoehr, Iuhnke, Lane and Lemon-bear with us- Have left their hearts in keeping of fair maidens, And we must mourn till they come back to us, Five years ago the wiles of Stickel might Have stood against the worldg he's married now, And no Collegiate Girl dares try her charms. Parnassians, if we were disposed to stir Your hearts and minds to -mutiny and rage, We'd say that Servis never could debate. Gannon and Craven, though honorable, Have left our Institute-we miss them both, For was not Edward G, a social light And student too? And Craven loved his hooks. And while we write we think of gay jay Erwin, i 136 Parsons and Johnson, Wheaton and Gene Hall- '1'hey're brothers now, they're all Daedalians. Have patience, gentle friends, we'll soon have finished. Will you be patient while we tell you how Ed Pridham sings with sweet melodious voice? We should not scorn this honorable man. 'Tis no uncommon sight to see some girls with Burt and True And yet they, too, are honorable men. Not only in the gym is Henning first, But in his studies always gets H. H. So is not he an honorable man? Good friends, sweet friends are Hazlewood and Williams, And both are much in love with Chemistry. Yes, all that take this course are honorable- 'l'here's Fredrickson and Kinney and Frank Merrill, Fred Schaefer, too, and tall, thin Salisbury. We write not, friends, to steal away your hearts By telling of the charms of Frank and Rob, Two Doyles are they, and they can dance full well. Shoemaker plays upon the mandolin, But still has time to fool with jolly girls. We tell you that which you yourselves do know, That Moore is now the only GK H who can Boast that he is a member of Parnassian. And Harold Robbins-what of him you ask? Ah! He can sing and dance and draw and calculate, 111 him you see an honorable man. , Yes, honorable are they all, from first to last, Peace ho! dear Lewisites, most patient noble friends, Here is the end, but ere we close we give To every noble Parnassian three hearty cheers, Most noble gentlemen, we sound your praise.

Hungry boys ride up, all in Il hurry, But the girls must walk up the five floors. And the line in the hall quickly lengthens Till it reaches the chemistry doors. One by one the starved students may enter, Each may take one blue plate from the pile, And survey the monotonous menu As he slowly proceeds up the aisle. There are baked beans or soup for a nickel, Perhaps hash, or three peas on some toast: Once a month there's Jerusalem pudding, Or ice cream ibut of this we won't boastj. 138 There are sandwiches-ham, egg, or raisin, Spaghetti and cheese, or boiled rice, And perhaps you may find some baked apples, And there's chocolate--not very nice. And from this you must make your selection- Nothing else can you get all the yearg For of course you could never have bluepoints, Nor strawberry Shortcake, I fear. When your plate is filled up with these goo You may make for a table with speed, 'Though a pretty girl stands by the counter Just to give you a check that you need. Now, my friend, kindly notice the others Who are thronging the lunch room at noon. See those girls far away in the corner- They are Zetas-you'd find that out soon. Next to them you will see the Iotas, And not far from them some of the boys, Who are laughing and talking together, And are filling the room with their noise. Toward the center the faculty gather, All forgetting the worries of lifeg Dr. Jones, Mr. Wade, and Miss Blanke, Dr. Smith, M1'. Peet and his wife. Near the faculty see those Daeclalians, They are Hazlewood, Henning, and Jones, Who consider the question of Labor As they argue in strenuous tones. At two tables the C. G. C. members Daily gather, the grave and the gayg For they love to discuss all their pleasures Till the warning bell calls them away. Then here's to the lunch room at Lewis. A cheer that is hearty and strong: And although the same fare may be tiresome, cl things May the lunch room live prosp'rous and long. ' ALICE SETON-'l'HoM1soN 139 TO E. H. Lewis, PH. D.

I42 The Leanersi' W'tith apologies to Opie Read. 5 N the northeastern part of Illinois there is a large city situated as X on the shore of Lake Michigan. In the west end of this city there is a class of men known as f'students, but leaners would be a more appropriate name. They live mostly in what are known as Hats and boarding-houses, where there are no chairs, but only posts and pillars to lean against. livery day a number of these men go to a large building, which is called Lewis Institute, and stand leaning against the lockers in the halls and corridors. Some of these men have been known to spend nearly a whole day in leaning.i They 'fleani' in such numbers that at times it is almost impossible to pass through the halls. Suppose some day an earthquake were to shake this building and all of these leaners were to fall. Many of them would be seriously hurt. There- fore, as a preventive it will be necessary for all earthquakes to post notices in all prominent places at least ten days before they intend to shake the building, so as to give all leaners a fair chance to find new Hleaningl' places, so that they will not fall and be hurt. Sudden movements of buildings are dangerousg therefore, leaners,,' bewareg the building may move suddenly and you may get hurt some day. These remind us of the animals of which Caesar speaks, which had no joints in their knees, and so could not lie down to sleep. The trees served as their beds, and they took their rest in a reclining position. From the footprints of these animals the hunters saw where they rested. The hunt- ers undermined the roots of the trees or nearly chopped them down. Then when the animals reclined, as was their custom, the weak trees fell over and the animals with them. BERTHA E.

GYM AS c fxss Ewis ,V V i f -lil lf i f Lewis Institute SUMMER SESSION July 6 to August 14, 1903 Three quarters and a summer term of six weeks make a school year of forty-two weeks, leaving ten weeks for vacations. The courses of instruction in the Institute are so arranged that pupils who attend the summer term may, to that extent, shorten the total time requirement. It is manifestly to the advantage of those who remain in the city to devote to study a part of the twelve weeks of the summer. The arrangement of classes is such as to make it possible for a pupil to complete one or two courses of instruction in the term of six weeks. The usual hours are from eight to twelve in the forenoon. Any course of instruction offered by the Institute will be repeated in the summer if the demand is such as to justify the formation of a class. Courses of Instruction Instruction is offered in the following departments: English. Five courses in English grammar, composition, oral reading, and literature, in preparation for admission to the Institute and for college entrance. History. Six courses in ancient, English, United States, and general European history. Mathematics. Seven courses in arithmetic, algebra, geometry, and trigonometry. Physics and Electrical Engineering. An elementary and an advanced course in general physics, and special individual instruction in electrical engineering. Chemistry. An elementary and an advanced course in general chemistry, and special individual instruction in qualitative and quantitative analysis and in organic chemistry. Manual Training. Six courses in woodwork and drawing designed to meet the needs of regular students and teachers of manual training. Drawing and Shop Practice. Three courses in mechanical drawing and a course in machine shop practice, embodying a study of the construction of the different machine tools, with instruction in operating and keeping them in order. Domestic Economy. Two courses, one in cooking and one in sewing. Foreign Languages. Such beginning and advanced classes in Latin, Greek, German, and French as may be necessary to meet the demands of the students in attendance.
