As at the meeting of old friends every thing, for the time being, gives place to the grasp of the hand and the glad exclamation w How d’you do?’' so the honor of occupying the front page of the Reveille is yielded to this humble (and, in itself, worthless) production. Here I stand in front of my modest brother editors, make a low bow and announce to every student and friend of Kenyon that we are here—did any one cheer? But this labored simile, in accounting for my for- wardness, takes it for granted that the Reveille will be welcomed as a friend. Be it so ; then we may proceed. I suppose it is needless to tell our readers that Old Father Time, in his rapid flight, has passed another milestone (i. e. that another year has passed); that ’73 aliis propriis volavJJ and the noisy flap of their wings has ceased; and that ’74 has at last reached the front ranks. Yes, we arc at last Seniors and, what is more, editors. If the editorial pen does not well become us (or, more properly, we it), we excuse ourselves by saying, “we won’t do so again.” We have labored to improve the Reveille and believe we have done it, and demand you to think so. ’Tis true we cannot fill its pages with the names of more students than are really in attendance. Would that it was in our power to attract students to Kenyon. We are sorry that we cannot tell our Alumni and patrons of an increase in number; we see no improvement.. When Miami University closed we hoped to be the gainers. Other colleges in the State received quite a number of students from that quarter, Kenyon not one. Why so? Some time ago, when it was rumored that Gambier was to have a railroad, wc were all overjoyed. Every one was confident that this connection with the rest of mankind would swell the number of students to a hundred, at least. The 4 SALUTA T1 OX. track was laid ; the locomotive shrieked ; the cars passed daily filled with people from the great world, but no one for Kenyon. Our next hope was: when the college is separated from the'rheo- logical Seminary, and when the Alumni figure in the board of trustees, then will Kenyon assume a new life. The much abused Seminary now stands at the head of the avenue in majestic soli- tude— a cenotaph ; the Alumni who were to work such mighty reform, now have the power. The antecedent of the conditional proposition is fulfilled ; the consequent-------. Where is the fallacy ? But logic aside, our grand success is vet all in the future. Yet do not for a moment suppose that everything is at a stand- still here at Kenyon. We are, indeed, greatly in want of students, but the few who are in attendance have many advantages. Every year sees better class work than the one before ; and, undoubtedly, Kenyon now offers the means of a more thorough education than any other college in the State—maybe than any other in the West. During the past year many improvements have been made, but the greatest may be seen in our already beautiful church. A large pipe organ has been put up, and the church has been beautifully frescoed. We thank Bishop and Mrs. Bedell for this. Would that we had a thousand such friends; hardly a term passes that we cio not see some new token of their kindness and generosity. We have the privilege this year of making our bow to a new member of our corps of instructors. We are always glad to wel- come new faces, and especially when they come to assist us in our studies. We would gladly follow the footsteps of former editors, and write a few words of counsel to Freshmen and Sophomores, but it would now be folly to attempt such a thing. Things are all bot- tom side up; Freshman no longer manifest their proverbial mod- esty, and Sophomores grow ill-natured because the command is: “Hands off the Freshman.” But we have not a word to say against the present system. If at times we are discontented, and seem disposed to grumble at the apparently uncalled for confusion of classes, yet on the whole we believe the Faculty mean to do what is the best for us. And while we place such confidence in them, we hope that they will not hesitate to return to old customs if they see that new ones do not work for the best. But now a word to the Alumni. There arc, connected with Kenyon College, three libraries: The Philomathesian, the Nu Pi SALUTATION. 5 Kappa, and that of the College. The Society Libraries are sup- ported, almost entirely, by the undergraduates. We take pride in adding to the number of volumes and in securing books of worth. The College Library is the library of the Alumni, or at least it should be. It is your duty and privilege to contribute to its support. Professor Benson, the librarian, has been doing all in his power to improve it, and by recalling what it was a few years ago, we can see what his untiring energy has accomplished. He now asks your assistance, and will thankfully receive books, new or old, of any class—religious, scientific, historic, etc. If you have not books to give, send your contributions in money, and leave it to the Professors to select the books. What graduate is not able to give, say ten dollars a year, for this purpose. If every friend of Kenyon who reads this will resolve that hereafter he will give ten dollars per annum, for the purchase of books, we shall soon have a library to be proud of. I have now made my bow to all around and shall retire, and give place to the Editorial. EDITORIAL. F'EW great events come to pass in this world unannounced. Therefore, we would proclaim to all whom it may concern, the forthcoming of ’74. No class in our knowledge has retained its number so well. It is true that,, in the storm-tost voyage we have had, wre lost our entire Stern, but on the whole we have out- ridden the storm hi a manner that would do credit to “Noah’s Ark.” During our first two years we shuddered at thought of losing a Ben is on, and as for Greek, it made us Tremble. Not- withstanding all this, we rallied and began our first term Junior. Although our Sterling worth this term was a Tittle below par, yet during the second term we proved Strong enough to redeem our- selves. All we needed was deeper Tapping, which we had in our last term Junior in Logic. Our Senior year—the crowning one of our course—has thus far progressed under the most favorable auspices. “ We shall make this a glorious, an immortal” year I! To it may Kenyon Took back w ith more pride than to any in her existence. Our class dignity has remained true to all the require- ments. Despite the revolution which has given the present Fresh- men the upper hand of the Sophs., in which revolution the Juniors were of no avail, we have maintained our upright and onward course unmoved by such commotion. It looks as though “Barbs ” are to inherit our mantle, ratfaer than Juniors. The study of Astronomy has given us high� towering flights of imagination, and has also taught us that in this year Kenyon is to see what she never saw? before, and what we consider a rare privilege—a transit of enus; no doubt an after-runner of our transit from College to the busy scenes of life !! After so often receiving “ line upon line,” here a condition and there a condition, and having so often endured many sun-DRY lectures on various topics, we are indeed glad to be so near the welcome words “Accipe hoc'' EDITORIAL. 7 -iVe have said our number has been well retained. Indeed it has been almost a “ constant quantity.” The reader will observe that the use of the term “constant quantity ” is evidence that our class is mathematically inclined. This is true, “ conditionally, In fact, we can recall an instance of constancy to such a degree as will, no doubt, take the “silver cup” of ’75. Gambier is remarkable, chiefly in that there is no other town exactly like it. Situated on a beautiful “ Hill ’ the foot of which is bathed by the pellucid waters of the picturesque Kokosing, it sleeps, quietly breathing the pure country air, disturbed only by the “ mellow notes of the hooting owl.” Were a stranger to pass through our town during vacation, it would doubtless suggest to him “The Deserted Village,” if he were versed in Goldsmith. And indeed, with a little imagination, the suggestion might arise were he to happen along during term-time. “All quiet along the Kokosing,” except occasionally a harsh or Dire-ful sound on horn or flute, which only serves to prove that no sound is often more musical and far more pleasant than some so-called musical sounds. Except the natural disintegration, our town is also a “constant quantity.” There are those who add such a charm to our little village that some students, on certain “conditions,” are willing to add a year to their regular course of study. To these, ’ 74 would now commit the destinies of ’75. We deem a word of advice to Sophomores not amiss. “He not wise in your own conceits.” Of course, you know many things, but most of you have yet one thing to learn, which is, that you don’t know anything. Dear sirs, many of your so called original and most sage remarks were known to the world long before you arrived. As to Freshmen, we would only say, remember that you must some day be “wise as Sophomores,” and we hope you may get through this sopht state all safe. Embryotic Freshmen, alias “Barbs,” it would only be a waste of precious time and the nec- essary materials for us to give you any advice suggested by our wisdom and experience in College. Such “meat ” would be too strong for you not yet arrived at the downy state. What you most need is extract of Latin and Greek grammar, given in small doses, six times a week. By way of encouragement, we would say to you persevere, and you will reach the goal. Be sure that you walk, all the way. f Faculty of Kenyon College. y o ELI T. TAPPAN, LL.

Dear Sirs : The Trustees of Kenyon College have decided that an addi- tional endowment of $200,000 is needed to enable the College to do as good work in future as in the past. The work now carried on can not be efficiently continued without further support. The present Faculty are doing all in their power, but some of their chairs are endowed only in part, while others are not endowed at all; and the want of a chair of the Modern Languages is felt to be a great drawback to the prosperity of the College. The endowment now asked for is for Kenyon College� and to lxi applied only to College Professorships and scholarships. Within a few years Ascension Hall and the Church of the Holy Spirit have been built. No money is asked for building purposes. To prevent any possibility of wasting this endowment, the subscriptions are to be made payable when $100,000 are sulwcribed It is proposed that the Alumni, as their share of the work, endow the two existing Professorships of Katin and Greek, to be called respectively, the Phi- lomathesian and Nu Pi Kappa Professorships. The amount required for each is $30,000. Our brethren of the N. P. K. are already at work, and it is hoped that “ PHILO11 will not be behind them. The Alumni, as a body, have never contiibuted to the support of Kenyon. In this they are behind the Alumni of other Colleges. There are enough Graduate Members of each Society to endow a Professorship, provided those who are able, arc liberal. In the interests of higher education, and for the sake of KENYON, we ask your contribution. No sum, however small, will be unthankfullv received, but to obtain the required amount several subscriptions of $1,000 or more will be necessary. Let us hear from you as soon as possible. We feel that we can call upon you with the expectation of receiving whatever you arc able to give. Any influence which you can have in our favor you will doubtless exert, and we will soon put Kenyon in condition to continue THE COLLEGE of the West—a position which she can not maintain without greater endowment. Very truly yours, J. R. TURNEY, Com. FORM OK NOTE. I promise to pay dollars to the Fund for the Endowment of the PIIILOMATIIESIAN PROP ESSO ItSH IP of the Greek Language and Literature in KENYON COLLEGE, so soon as One Hundred Thousand Dollars shall have been subscribed. ..187 . -A_HST APPEAL TO THE Alumni of the Nu Pi Kappa Society. Dear Sirs : We address you in the interests of Kenyon. It has become necessary to increase the Endowment of the College. The funds which have been heretofore raised for its benefit have been carefully secured, and though the original grant of land has been greatly diminished, the value of the property belonging to the Institutions is in excess of what has been given. Notwithstanding this, the Trustees foresee that they will not be able to realize as much from their funds as in the past few years; but desirous that Kenyon shall grow in influence by increasing her advantages, they have with the Faculty resolved to secure, if possible, Two Hundred Thousand Dollars additional Endowment for Kenyon College. Of this sum they hope to secure from the Alumni and those who have been at one time students, Sixty Thousand Dollars, feeling confident that the remain- der can l e obtained elsewhere. With this hope and purpose the Literary Societies have undertaken to secure from their members an endowment of Thirty Thousand Dollars each for the Chairs of Greek and Latin, to be called respectively the Philomathesian and Nr Pi Kappa Professorships. Kenyon has always been the foremost of Western Colleges. The aim is now to make her in all respects the best. In this, those who have been students of KENYON must heartily concur. But to make her the best, requires sufficient funds to enable her to offer such advantages as minor colleges springing up around her cannot extend. When the Latin and Greek and other existing Professorships, whose endow- ments are not yet complete, shall have l� een endowed each Thirty Thousand Dollars, a new Professorship of Modern Languages and Literature cstab lished, with the same endowment, and fifty or sixty thousand dollars secured for SCHOLARSHIPS, for the benefit of deserving students, we are confident that Kenyon will tike the place we so much desire for her. The Alumni and Students of Kenyon have not exerted themselves as actively in furthering her interests as Alumni generally do for their Alina Mater. Causes for this may have arisen from the Constitution of the Theological Seminary and APPEAL TO XU PI KAPPA SOCIETY 41 Kenyon College, but the action of the late Convention in Cincinnati has cer- tainly removed such impediments by making as broad a distinction as possible between the Theological Seminary and the College, and also by giving the Alumni a voice among the Trustees. An opportunity now presents itself in the interest of thorough education and for the furtherance of the prosperity of the College, which we earnestly ask you to embrace. We do not specify any amount, we simply ask each to give as his means will permit, and, should you not be able to give anything to our Nu 1 1 fund, beg that you will bring the cause of Kksyon before others who can give, and may be induced through your influence to help us to a successful termina- tion of our undertaking. The Philos are active in bringing this plan l efore their members. We hope our Nu Pi’s will not be backward, but stand by her as they used to do in old, bygone days. The subscriptions are to 1 € paid when the fund subscribed from all sources amounts to One Hundred Thousand Dollars. You will oblige us very much by answering as soon as possible we tru t favorably. 4 Very truly yours, GRAYSON MILLS, Com. FORM OF NOTE. I promise to pay..................dollars to the Fluid for the Endowment of the NU PI KAPPA PROFESSORSHIP of the Latin Language and Literature in Kenyon College, soon as One Hundred Thousand Dollars shall have been subscribed. 1ST UK would be “deeply derelict” in failing to make some V V mention of the very interesting and impressive ceremony witnessed on the eve of the 20th of December, 1873. The parties most interested were the members of the class of '76. To them the occasion was one of deep sadness. Upon them devolved the mournful task of saying “earth to earth, dust to dust, ashes to ashes.” All day long they had worn a look of the most supreme dejection. It had become certain that at the above date they must be separated from a companion with whom they had long associated, but of whose internal excellencies they knew very little. The loosening of the silver cord took place in one of the rooms of Ascension Hall, where the deceased was wont to hold sweet converse with his friends. The last sad scene of the drama over, it became an immediate duty to dispose of the re- mains; and the manner of their meeting this painful responsi- bility is itself a token of the high regard in which Mr. Al. Gebra was held by the class of ’76. The hour appointed for the service was 7 P. M. Precisely at that hour, while the moon was shining in all her splendor, there emerged from the shadows of the old building the gloomiest set of mortals it had ever been our fortune to behold. Arrayed in funeral robes, and with musical pieces in their hands, they marched in single file, stepping to the solemn notes of a culinary instru- ment provided for the occasion. In conformity with an ancient custom, and at the same time as the best manner of testifying their esteem, the class had decided to burn the comrade. And as they neared the funeral pile, gentle Luna withdrawing behind a cloud as if in sympathy with the sorrowful proceedings, all was gloom and darkness. In the midst of their wild lamentation, an apparition appeared unto them from whose mad gesticulation they imagined that their presence was not wanted in that vicinity, and with the words, “ Requiescat in pace sempiternethey departed in the same good order as they came, each bearing away a handful of ashes as a momento, “ The cheese, it is said, did not roll out for fear that the ghost might devour it.” CLASS STATISTICS. 43 The following is a copy of the litany which the class considered most appropriate to use : “From all Mathematics, good Tute, deliver us. From all con- ditions, good Tute, deliver us. From the Binomial Theorem and Indeterminate Co-efficients, good Tute, deliver us. That we may card and skin through safely, we beseech thee to hear us, good l ute. That we may be saved from flunks and examinations, we beseech thee to hear us, good Tute.” Gentlemen taking the most active part with the special duties of each, are as follows: Fisher and Dunn, - Chief Mourners.

POLITICS. 6. 2. Editorial. 'There is no use to deny the truth of the maxim, “ Labor omnia vincit. But to use the expression of an old friend, there seem to be some things in this stubborn world over which we have no control. The day may yet come when the region of the North Pole will be turned into a vast summer resort for the gay and fashionable. However, no definite arrangements of this sort have as yet been made, and it would not be difficult to find many clever souls who believe there never shall. Again, there is, of course, nothing inconsistent in supposing that at some future time a rail- road will be constructed to the moon, so that its inhabitants and those of this mundane sphere may exchange visits, and compare notes with as little concern as do the people of New York and San Francisco. There are two sides, however, to this question, and many are disposed to be incredulous. And last, but not least, it may be true that a Reveille Editorial affords a rich field for original thought, that there is a probability of saying all sorts of before-unheard-of-things, and at the same time keeping to the text. This also is a question to which we have discovered there arc two sides, and those whose future fortune it may be to write one will decide with us that such imaginings are vain. The his- tory of one class is the history of all. Our little world here is • confined within very narrow limits. We have all gone through the same daily routine of study and recitation, sung the same songs, attend the same church, sleep under the same roof, and supped at the same frugal board as did those who have gone be- fore us. Aside from the accidental circumstances in the history of individual classes the story of college life is ever the same. Now that ours is drawing to close, it is but natural that we should feel some regret in view of that event. We do. It is, however, of doubtful propriety to say so here. The temptation to indulge in sentiment upon occasions of this sort has proved very power- ful. All sorts of harsh things have been said of old father time, and frequent allusions have been made to his effacing fingers and his EDITORIAL. 45 hour glass, but the probabilities are that the hardness of the old gentleman in this matter is a subject of no especial concern to any one but ourselves. The fact is, that during four years of col- lege we have formed attachment which we are loth to break, but there is little grounds for supposing that others care anything about it, not even our most intimate acquaintances, except so far as it will diminish the list of interesting topics for small talk. None of these, perhaps, is particularly sorry that commencement is here. Some of last year’s editors said “Gambier is the quiet little village she has always been.” It would have been more correct if he had said Gambier has not always been the quiet little village that she is. In this respect we have no change to record for ’74. It was thought that the railroad would disturb the wonted quiet, and let in the noise and bustle of the outer world. But not so. The iron monster, as if unwilling to be the destroyer of all this harmony and peace, steals around the base of the hill, leaving the town to stillness and to dreams. The owls and Freshmen, whom the Sophomores contend are a species of the same genus, are the only genuine disturbers of the peace. 'The Freshmen this year, by the way, are a very naughty class. Their natures, it seems, are essentially fierce and warlike. They number more gentlemen of pugilistic propensities than any class that we remember. It is rumored that they can go through a man’s room with far greater facility than through the Greek verb. And it is altogether credible. At least, those believe it who have beheld the pleasing spectacle of their rooms, packed in the latest approved style. There is a report current that certain members of this class had the audacity to enter the room of a very worthy Junior in his absence, pack his trunk with old clothes and sundry other articles, and ship it for inspection, to the home of a friend of the gentleman’s residing a short dis- tance from the college. If these stories be true, certainly sub- missive Freshmen has become an empty phrase. But there is a reason for this want of reverence and the observ- ance of the commonest rules of decorum. Heretofore it has been the delight of Freshmen to keep silent and obey. It has been our fortune, however, to see this rule somewhat reversed. We have, perhaps, not to look far for the cause of this. When the time-honored custom of “ tossing the Freshmen” was abandoned here, one of the most wholesome of 40 EDITORIAL. influences was lost. Nothing so takes the wind out of a Freshman as a good shaking up at the start. Another thing that perhaps has had its silent influence in this direction is the high esteem in which muscle has of late come to be held. A regard for physical culture is, of course, proper and right, and not only do gymnastics dispose the mind to study, but exer- cise of some sort is even necessary for the proper exercise of the mental faculties. Hut this should be the exception, rather than the rule, as some are disposed to make it. As long as the highest praise is paid for muscle, no blame can be attached to Freshmen for traveling thereon. A word before we close as to the College in general. While there are many things in our judgment pertaining to the general management of affairs here that ought to be improved, yet upon the whole we have never known the Institution in a more pros- perous condition than to-day. Not, of course, as regards num- bers. Numbers, however, are by no means the chief thing to be looked at There is more work done, more genuine, good feeling among the students, and a better understanding between the latter and the Faculty than we ever remember. Keep up the standard, and there is no disgrace in small numbers. Keep up the standard, and Kenyon’s future is a bright one. V aledictory. - A GREAT deal is written and spoken by College-men about the philosophy of a successful life. Any day in the year you may listen to wise conclusions upon the wants of young men of America. A small pattern, or a frayed and ravelled sample of life is selected by which College philosophers proceed to elaborate a complete system of religious, moral and patriotic principles. These phi- losophers unite in conception the sweep of a Lionardo or Angelo to the minuteness of the Dutch school. This is all very well, they had better do this than lo nothing, or do that which is more than nothing. This advantage is surely theirs; these great plans and conceptions usually produce little but the unpleasant sensa- tion of waking up some morning and finding, by the keen analysis morning brings, that they are sold. Something is at fault here. Would it not be as well for students to tackle that which will not throw them nine times out of ten ? If we must philosophize, let it be upon subjects we are acquainted with ; upon subjects which are of true interest and of true value to College men. The phi- losophy of College existence, or better common sense upon Col- lege life would be a theme worthier of discussion. Men in College can tell the peculiar wants of students better than other men. College Faculties understand this. They arc always ready to hear plain, straight-forward statements of truth. This simple fact in- dicates an advance in the science of teaching; that the student’s interest is the interest of the Faculty; that the Facultie’s interest is the interest of the student ; that a mutual good understanding, and not a spirit of antgonism, which is ever upon the alert, that it’s dignity and rights be not assailed; that the success of an in- stitution and the development of its students into thinking men, men of expanded and symmetrical culture ; that all these are mat- ters which can not be overlooked by those connected with any institution, no one will gainsay. In brief, if a College wants to die, and if “ College mostly makes people like bladders, just good for nothing but t’hold the stuff as is poured into ’em.” The first thing to be done is to make the gulf impassable between the Pro- fessor and the student. At Kenyon this gulf is spanned by arches of strong common sense. College philosophers never wander in the direction of the bridge. In College life, as in other forms of human existence, there are antiquated humbugs. Yes, humbugs, moss bound and lichen covered. It is not the object of this arti- cle to create a body of philosophers or a system of morals. Yet many of these delusions in reference to the life of a student and of his relation to College government present themselves for consid- VALEDICTORY. 48 eration. One great delusion of the past is no more, viz., that the only way to take the conceit out of Freshmen is by sending them upon a trip of astronomical discovery, in College phraseology, “ by tossing them.” It is a known fact that nothing makes the Quid ag s, dulcissmine rerum ? class of men so meek and docile as one of these voyages; but the plan is open to the slight objec- tion of broken heads and arms, and it has been discontinued. What shall be used now as the most effective way of taming these young gentlemen is a good subject for philosophers. We notice another delusive idea. It is often believed that men who are un- popular in College, are so for the simple fact that they are more gentlemanly than their fellow-students, and therefore a spirit of jealously is aroused against them, or it is said, they are martyrs for strictly adhering to some principle of right action. This is a mistake. No men see through the hypocrite, lazy student or sham man of any kind quicker than College men. Their verdict is usually a correct one, for they respect honor, consistency and brains. There are also mistaken conclusions handed down from Senior to Freshmen through years of College existence. We had better challenge them before they arc taken as part of our mental stock. That honor men, as a class, are selfish men, must not be accepted till a large number of instances prove the rule, or that a spirit of warm emulation is not often fanned into a flame of bitter rivalry, a rivalry producing in after years a warping of char- acter which will destroy all the cordial relations of life. That all the men at the foot of a class are brilliant geniuses who have wasted their time is as fallacious as that those men are ninnies and dolts who have consistently followed their own ideas in educa- tion, and for that cause hold low positions. These ideas may be wrong, but every man, sooner or later, must be his own teacher. To restrain inclinations and to instill correct principles is the high privilege of teachers. Many men in College have not decided inclinations, and their goodness is of an equally negative charac- ter. Others are well inclined, but with no central principle upon which to build a social and moral character. A rule of enlight- ened self-interest, which says, “ If you happen to come my way, I will help you,” and which never interests itself in the advance- ment of men; a rule of this kind is based upon no correct prin- ciple, and can never incline men to true action. An unfortunate young man once fell into disreputable company at Jerico, he was saved by a free act of the Samaritan. Do not College philoso- phers think many lives would be more successful if they had a helping hand sometimes extended to them? In the closing lines of its Reveille, ’74 says a long farewell to all its greatness. It is a descent from the calm dignity of the Senior year to the humble position of active life. If we have received judicious criticism during our College course, and if we have accepted that criticism, we can avoid the rocks of egotism and vanity, ami can do our work quietly and unobstrusively.
