This year, however, we make no such claims. The Class of 1908 most certainly produced a masterpiece and we wish to congratulate them upon it. In compiling this present volume, it has been our earnest desire to bring forth a Reveille that will be of interest to the Alumni as well as to the undergraduates. We realize that in many of the Kenyon Annuals there has been scarcely a word which would quicken the heart of an Alumnus and bring back to his memory the days of the distant past when he too was once a boy at Kenyon. It is with this end in view that we have undertaken a song department, or rather a collection of Kenyon verse. The difficulties in this connection have been rather great. It is due in large part to the loyal assistance of several of the Alumni that this collection has been made possible, and we wish to thank them sincerely. Although the attempt has not proved as successful as we would have wished, nevertheless we earnestly hope that it will meet with their approval. Our aim has been to make the book a worthy representative of Kenyon. We too plainly realize how far we have fallen short of this ideal. Nevertheless, we entreat the gentle reader that he look upon our work with leniency and reserve in his heart a spark of good will for the intention, if not the execution, of this Kenyon Annual, the 1909 Reveille. page nine 1907-1908 First Semester Sept. 18 Wednesday Oct. 1 T uesday ..

Still farther am I reminded that our lives, like nature, are on the verge of change. Perhaps the Senior more than anyone else feels within him deep down in his heart a feeling that can not be suppressed. He is unable to explain it; regret mingled with hope, both of which are struggling to rise to the surface. Would that inspired by some muse I might impart the feelings of our whole number as we stand on the dividing line between a happy past and an uncertain future. As it is I am confined to my own narrow bounds. What docs it mean to us to be at the end of our four years at college ? The most of us are about to go forth into the world and battle with its problems leaving the fostering care of our dear col- lege behind us. A college which we are all proud to call our mother. What one of us regrets that he came to Kenyon? In after years our hearts will be filled with unspeakable love and reverence when we think of the happy life spent here on the hill. Even now as we look back we think of those first joyous days when we were Freshmen. Days which perhaps stand out clearer than all the rest. Then it was we became acquainted with the life which now has almost become a part of us. We shall never forget some of the friendships formed in those first few days. On coming back the next year there came the realization, espe- cially in our own minds, that we were real Kenyon men. We had served our term of probation. Undoubtedly this year of deceptive pride was less memorable than all others. Then came our Junior year. How few returned! We now were really to become factors page twenty five in the affairs of our Alma Mater. Although handicapped in our social activities by the absence of Harcourt, we came through all with flourishing colors. At last as Seniors we arc reaping the true harvest. It is while a Senior the Kenyon man can appreciate real college life. He has learned the great lesson of adapting himself to the duties-laid before him, and now as a Senior he is able to reap the fruits of those labors. It is but a short time before the painful duty of leave-taking will be thrust upon us. Each will take a different path to find his respective tasks. May those tasks be well done and one more class be added to Kenyon’s glory. page twenty-six 1908 Class Song (Tune—“Drink to me only with thine eyes ) I Kenyon, the time will soon be here, When we must say adieu, And enter on life’s stem career As thine own sons so true. Then time fly not so swiftly by, We fain would linger late. Mother, how can we break away In Nineteen Hundred Eight? II Though we travel distant climes, Yet through the lowering haze, We’ll hear thy Canterbury chimes, Peal as in former days. We’ll often meet in memory Within thy campus gate, And greet our old time friends, Of the Gass of Nineteen Eight. III Regret our loyal hearts shall fill, When that time comes to pass, That we must leave this sacred Hill, Our happy, jovial class. So here is to our safe return At some appointed date, And here’s to the orange and the black Of Kenyon’s Nineteen Eight. page twenty-seven Nineteen Hundred and Eight Class Officers Kenneth Frederick Luthy Pierre Kellogg Chase William Raymond Seth George Eliot Clarke Edward Winfield Hughes Ralf Clewell Sykes President Vice-President Secretary Treasurer Historian Toastmaster Class Colors Orange and Black Class Yell Hoorah!

Junior Class FOUR fellows were sitting out by the Prayer Cross looking across the campus, flooded with warm, soft moonlight, with the shadow of Old Kenyon clearly marked on the soft grass. For a long while they sat there, drinking in the wonder of the night, the wondrous beauty of the wide views across the valley to the sil- vered hills beyond and the thousand little noises of a soft summer’s night. Their gaze followed the path, a dark shaded mass in the pale- ness of the night, on past Ascension, past Rosse Hall, the Chapel, Harcourt, Bexley, and drifting away, on into next year, and on, on into the years to come, when all would be separated, scattered to different parts of the country, but bound alway with memories of the golden years spent on the Hill. Finally one of them, turning so that the “1909” on his jersey shone in the moonlight, broke the silence. “How many of the fellows will be back next year, I wonder? How many of the old class are already gone 1” “Do you remember”, broke in another, “the bunch as we lined up in front of Southworth’s bam, three years ago? Most of them gone, now, and yet they, somehow, do not seem to have gone at all.” “The best lot of fellows that I ever expect to find together, and the perfectly great times that we have had?” said the first. “That night when 1908 relieved us of carrying the refreshments across the river; all those escapades .with ‘Briar’ Halsted, in which Childs and Stewart figured so prominently—Hazel Dell, and the meetings with Harcourt there; gravel pit with Fred, Phil Crosby and Dewey as masters of ceremonies; the time that we shaved Bud- weiser and the wholesale S. C. I. that followed; ‘Stan’ Allen and his canoeing,—Reeves, Kunkle, the McElroys, the firm of Dow, Eikenberry and Co. in their establishment up on the Path, and oh, everything that helped make that year so wonderful.” “And do you remember,”—a third began to speak softly and reminiscently—“the great fight at the Academy last year; the page thirty-five cane rush which we won for the second time, and the necessary smoker afterwards; the minstrel show with ‘King’ Heald acting as trainer for ‘Thaddeus of Warsaw ‘Sophomore’ Ball and the Bible course that was discontinued in honor of his return; Tom Sheldon and his famous trio; that wonderful ‘Brixton Burglary’, the plot of which no one has yet been able to unearth and the re- hearsals of which were scenes of great joy. Downe’s Oh Mr. Higgle’ and Bill Shaw’s attempts to memorize his lines; the great and glorious banquet which followed.” “At that, this year has provided food for a good bunch of memories”, spoke up the fourth. “’Member the night we four secured a rig and took the freshmen’s food out to their fortress in Hazel Dell, while the Sophomores called to each other through the moonlit valley; the famous banquet in December, when ‘Briar’s’ letter drew so much applause; the great Prom Week, the best, I truthfully say, that has ever been given on the Hill—yes, and the thousand and one little things that in three years have bound 1909 closer together than any other class on the Hill? “We have never been a bunch of students, but a mighty good lot of fellows, and, besides the fun, that has been such a large factor in our life, the class has brought us some lasting friendships and taught deeper lessons than ever books or study. To live clean, wholesome, jolly lives, free from sordid cares and worries, and yet always with the willingness to help one another—that is the lesson taught us on the dear old Hill, during the golden years of our life, and the life of 1909.” page thirty-six Class Song (Tune: Stand up and cheer.) Come brothers all, Come 1909, in jovial measure Let us raise a song To celebrate our famous Class! We’ve lived for fun and for pleasure And studied just enough to pass, But all the same We’ve made a name, That we are not ashamed to own! 19!—9!—o!—9I Boistrous and rough Our Freshman days, a poor start making; Nor as Sophomores Did we get far along our course; Our Junior year shows us taking A little wisdom, and perforce In Senior year We shall appear As wise as Seniors always do! 19!—9!—o!—9! Heart-felt and true The song that tells of our devotion! Strong and vigorous The words that speak our thoughts of love! Yet soft and full of emotion, And rising steadily above The lower plane Is the refrain That sings of friendships made for ay! 19!—9!—o!—9! page thirty.seven Nineteen Hundred and Nine Class Officers President.

The battle of Irkutsk had just been fought and that day the armies of the white race under General Lybarger had been victorious and the cause of civilization saved. I had just completed a detailed account of the struggle for the New York Wireless and preparatory to going to bed, had sat down to the dreamy enjoyment of a pipe before the camp-fire. I leaned back on my stool and rested my head against the board where to save time, general press news was published by order of the commanding general. Soon weariness overcame me, my mind became hazy and my pipe slipped from my fingers and fell to the ground. The next thing I remember I was being borne through the air to no place in particular. Everything was dark and I was groping for my way when suddenly I saw before me a strangely familiar scene. Between the upright stone posts I looked down a long gravel walk bordered on either side by rows of trees. Another smaller stone post rose midway between the two and in the distance shown many lights. In spite of the familiarity of the scene, however, there seemed to be some indescribable change in it as if the hand of time had been at work. I was standing trying to see what this was when I heard footsteps behind me and turning I saw a queer looking youth approaching. He wore a white flannel suit, with a coat so long that it re- minded me of a Prince Albert, low-cut Oxfords and the most curious looking cap I had ever seen. Strangely enough something about me also seemed to strike him as ridiculous, for I saw a half smile on his face as he drew near. In spite of this, however, I felt some strong indefinable bond drawing me toward him and knew we must have much in common. He was just going past me when a long forgotten phrase rose to my lips from the cob-webs of my memory. page forty-five “Introduce yourself, Freshman.” Instantly he came to a halt. “Freshman J-------s of Cincinnati.” My ire rose within me. Wh—a—t!!!?? “Freshman J-------s of Cincinnati, sir.” The words caused a mighty surge in my brain and a thousand thoughts rose and sought expression. “Where am I?” came first. “You are standing before the gates of Kenyon College, ‘The Star of the West ” “What year is this?” “1958” Immediately countless questions popped into my head, and see- ing my condition the youth said: “Perhaps you would like to walk down the path with me and look around.” “Yes I would. I am an old Kenyon man.” At once his manner changed. “You are? What was your class?” “1910.” “You a member of the class of 1910? We know all about that class. One of the most remarkable that ever hit the hill. Hadn’t seen the place forty-eight hours when they and ’09 had a scrap Bill Hunter 3rd still tells about. Kind you read about in books. Lost the rush, but maybe you didn’t make those sophomores look sick when you gave them 2cater to drink. Was always starting things, too. Started a midnight fire one night and had all Gambier out to put it out. Even started a professor on a midnight stroll up past Harcourt. What’s more, started the superintendent of grounds and buildings carrying buckets to Harcourt on a dead run.” “How well I remember that night 1” “1910 had students too and athletes and followers of both sterlings, scholars who patterned themselves after Theodore and philosophers who strove to expound the principles of Peter. It was the first class that had to buck up against the freshman rule, but it had football, baseball and basketball teams that could make the ’varsity hustle, and in track won second place in the inter-class meet.” “We were well trained, too.” page forty-aix 4' m “Yes, and maybe you didn’t train that poor class of 1911! They thought they were something great when they got here, forty-five big fellows, but you soon took that out of them. Remember those yellow caps. The first morning those appeared a Bexley professor thought he saw a dandelion patch in the dead of winter and came at a trot to see the miracle. He stopped when he saw what they were and was heard to mutter, ‘It does seem to me that the present sophomore class is too inventive. They will interfere with the natural laws of human progress.' We had now reached the bulletin board and I told my young friend that 1910 had never hoped to do anything so wonderful as that, but that it was the wish of us all to be always true and loyal sons of Old Kenyon. With that I turned to look at the board and read “Tartar cavalry repulsed 3,000,000 Chinese dead at Kelucican Hill” and with a start I jumped for my instrument. page forty-seven 1910 Class Song To music of Princeton Cannon Song Come climb the Hill, come walk the Path And look the students o'er With history's aid survey the names Of Kenyon men of yore. Good men they are, good men they were And are not we good men Who take our places in their ranks? The Gass of 1910. Chorus. Kenyon forever true Are we thy sons to thy dear name.

What an ideal spot for work and study!” For we really meant to study in those days and we were delightfully, one might even say, refrcsh- ingly green. As green as the leaves on the trees, yet our condition was not permanent. For as the leaves changed at the touch of the autumnal frosts, so we changed at the touch of the gonk, and as the leaves fell from the trees, so fell from us our mantle of greenness and we stepped forth full-fledged sons of Kenyon. The gonk is a magic touchstone and under its application the scales fell from our eyes and we saw with a new sight. The transition period was filled with gall and bitterness and many were the afflictions we had to bear. That first day we crawled like beasts of the field to chapel, urged on by none too gentle strokes from behind. A few days after we cast our his- trionic pearls before a wildly hooting mob of Sophomores who re- warded our theatrical efforts with nothing more than a few desul- tory blows from the gonk. We have engaged in numberless en- forced night shirt parades, even going so far as to invade the sacred shrine of the Criminology class at the behest of the Sophomore. And last, but far from least, we have braved the terrors of the inquisition in countless sessions of the S. C. I. Suffice it to say, we have had our revenge. For what Soph- omore cheek does not blush for shame at mention of the cane rush ? On that day, at least, we asserted ourselves and came out triumphant. We slept under arms in a deserted cabin, hourly expecting a vigor- ous attack. To our disappointment none came, and having no human adversaries, we attacked the cabin to the subsequent deple- tion of the class treasury. The next day we marched boldly up to page fifty-three college chanting our war cry. At the appointed hour we laid hands on the cane and forming our Grecian phalanx, rushed across the field carrying everything before us. Thus we won the day and marched off in a blaze of glory. In revenge for our victory the Sophs subjected us to all man- ner of evils and ground us more effectually into the dust than be- fore. This treatment instead of dampening our ardor, only caused the spirit of achievement to burn more brightly within us. In obedience to this spirit we have shone wherever 'tis proper for Freshmen to shine. We have frequently been asked: “Do you believe in hazing? There was a time when we should have answered decidedly in the negative, but since then our horizon has enlarged to such a degree that we unhesitatingly and with one voice answer “yes.” We frankly, do, and we thank the present Sophomores for their demonstrations in the gentle art. We have learned much from them, yet we have some original theories of our own and we are living in anticipation of our Sophomore year to put them into practice. And that reminds us. Our Sophomore year is not so far away as it seems. As the proverb says, “Tempus fugit,” and with the passing of a few short months we shall take up the coveted role. Then shall the college have an awakening, and the earth will trem- ble at the noise of our approach. But ’tis vain to idly boast so until the joyful era shall actually arrive, we bid the reader a fond “adieu.” page fifty-four Class Song (Tune: “Webb.”) I.

So good-bye to you, Old Kenyon, And good-bye to you, Kokosing, And good-bye to you, sweet bells!” But Old Kenyon gloomed and brooded In the sultry summer days: “Must I always see my lovers Leaving me for other ways ? May I not keep one enchanted With the pleasant pastourellcs Played besido the bright Kokosing, In the shelter of Old Kenyon, By the chiming of the bells? Atid the tower-bells, responsive, Called aloud and called afar; “Come back to the woods and waters Where the dreams of morning are! Back to where the youthful fancy Finds its fairest parallels! Come, O come back to Old Kenyon, Come back to the young Kokosing, And the singing of the bells! And Kokosing murmured likewise, Pausing ’neath the willow trees; “My great mother is the ocean, Mistress she of destinies; I will carry out a message Where her mighty bosom .swells, That she send him back to Kenyon, Waiting here beside Kokosing With the welcome of the bells.” So he came back to Old Kenyon— O but pale and still was he! And he came back to Kokosing— O the cold kiss of the sea! Came back to the bells still chiming Their melodious far-wells; And we laid him by Kokosing, In the snadow of Old Kenyon. In the hearing the bells. —Orville E. Watson John Thomson Brooke John Thomson Brooke lost his life in San Francisco bay on August 15th, 1907. Although his death will ever remain a deep sorrow to all that knew him, this grief is immeasurably soft- ened when it is realized that after saving one boy from drowning he died in the heroic attempt to save another. It was indeed a fitting end to a life that had been generous and kind and a noble ex- ample of all that is good. page sixty-three ©Hrefi hellion 23ubg;eon The Tonic Chord (In Memory of Frederick Robert Tschan, October, 1907.) We felt it coming long before it came; Discordancies complained of something due; And pale anticipations peered out through The woven shades of harmonies to claim A guest we had not courage yet to name. And Love, for fear of it, her curtains drew; And Life from out his beacon hill-top threw Upon the dusk a signal-flag of flame. It came! and down fell Life’s strong fortalice! It came, and swept Love’s prostrate tent above; And, passing like a rich libation poured Into a sea of silence, left us this Strange problem to resolve, how Life and Love Combine with Death to make the perfect Chord! -0.

The season of 1907 was no exception to this rule. With the regulation barring all Freshmen from participation in athlet- ics, Kenyon had just sixty-six men last fall from which to pick a team of eleven. Yet how well Coach Munro and Captain Garke and their men did the work can be seen at a glance. We started the season with an easy victory over Otterbein. Case defeated us twelve to four in a pouring rain and on a heavy field. Heidelberg was easily defeated. The following week we journeyed to Wooster. The up State team which had the week before tied O. S. U. and had championship aspirations, rather sneered at the idea of a close game. We soon showed them, how- ever, what a small college with pluck can do. Score Kenyon 5 Wooster o. The following week we met Ohio State in Columbus, and again wfe were forced to meet a heavy team in a rain on a heavy field. Although we kept them from scoring in the first half, their weight told in the end and we once more lost to our old time rivals. The following Saturday we met Denison at home and took a hearty revenge for our last year's defeat. Though outweigh ted by thirty pounds to the man we held Reserve to a close score. The last game of the season was played at Delaware, Where we were narrowly defeated by the Wesleyan team. Thus once more we find Kenyon on the gridiron, and the results are plainly to be seen, when we can turn out a team which, outweighted in every game save one, runs up a total of eightv-two points to our opponents sixty-three. page ninety- evcn Season of 1907 George E.

Otterbein met us here on April 4th and was defeated by a score of seven to four. The sig- nificance of the victory lay not only in the victory itself, but in the fact that the new tactics of inside baseball were strongly in evi- dence. Last year Kenyon had a very successful season and the strong- est teams in the State were defeated. The fielding department was well nigh perfect and it is safe to say we had no superiors if indeed any equals in this respect. Our weakness lay however, in batting and base running. Two things in which all college teams are notably deficient, and which can only be overcome by a thorough knowledge of what is known as inside baseball. In Dr. Monroe, the new athletic director, we have a man who is admirably suited to give us this necessary knowledge. Taking everything into consideration, the prospects for the ensuing season are unusually bright. Six of last year’s team are back in harness again and the new candidates have all shown by their work on the freshman team last year that they can fill the vacancies very creditably. The schedule is practically the same as in former years with one exception. The manager has booked a game with Western University of Pennsylvania which is a step toward extending our athletic relations into new territory. Efforts were made this year to secure game with several Eastern colleges and would doubt- less have been successful had it not been for the fact that their schedules were complete at the time of application. With the ice once broken, we hope that in coming years the managers will make every effort to secure recognition from these institutions, as Ken- yon’s steady advancement warrants her taking a place among the best. page one hundred one J.

The question is far from new, it has come up regularly for the last four years, during which time Kenyon has had a weak team. This year’s Five, although somewhat better than the previous teams, has followed the well beaten path to defeat. It did how- ever, play many close and exciting games but failed to balance the scores in Kenyon’s favor, with one exception. One of the best players was lost by his leaving college in the middle of the season. Financially this season was far superior to all others. Considering these facts we might well look upon it as a success and credit to the college. The most notable and deplorable feature of the season was the lack of training by the players and the dearth of Kenyon spirit among the students. Had these two costly faults been remedied, basket-ball would have a much better start for the coming year. The prospects for the future are more than gratifying. We lose but one regular from the first team, the Freshmen material promises the long-looked-for experienced players, lastly, we have discarded the dreamy robes of Morpheus and even now there is great enthusiasm for basket-ball. The spell is broken and no one doubts that the coming season will be the best Kenyon has known for many years. page one hundred five — i Season of 1908 L. R. Brigman Captain C. K. Lord Manager D. C.

Last season the team was anything but successful. The lack of interest and train- ing was du® in most part to the absence of any dual meets. Thus the Big Six contest in Cleveland was the only event to look for- ward to and this naturally served to dishearten rather than en- courage the team. Practically all the material was green and with- out confidence. Accordingly Kenyon’s low standing in the Big Six Meet was not unexpected. The prospects for the present season however testify an en- tirely different story. Besides having an inter class meet, a plan has been undertaken to hold a high school field day at Gambier. The proposed date is May 30. Valuable medals have been pro- vided by interested Alumni to further the undertaking. In fact the idea originated with the alumni and promises to bring Kenyon into greater prominence before many of the high schools of the state, if it is properly carried out. This of course will not directly assist the Kenyon Track team which would not compete, but it most certainly will stir up great enthusiasm and spirit. This season a dual meet has been arranged with Ottcrbein and negotiations for one with Wooster are under way. Although it is impossible to predict just what success track will meet with, nevertheless there is good reason to believe that Kenyon will stand many points higher in this branch than she did last season. Captain Coolidge has gone at his work with a vim and spirit is running high. Coach Munro, although track is not his specialty, under- stands this work thoroughly and his assistance and supervision will be of great advantage. The college loses very little good material and has a number of Sophomores who are very promising. With this present material on the track and the two dual meets as preparation, Kenyon bids fair to gain a creditable standing in the big meet at Columbus on May 22nd. page one hundred nine Season of 1907 S.

Not only does the Collegian reach all the Alumni and inform them of the progress of their Alma Mater, but it also penetrates into most of the college communities all over the country, and in this light is a direct advertisement for the col- lege. Much therefore depends on the character of the collegiate publication; for many people knowing absolutely nothing about the college aside from the view presented in the college publication will naturally be forced to mould their opinion directly from the latter. Too much time and care therefore cannot be expended upon the Collegian; students and alumni should work harmoniously to publish a paper which will in every way reflect the best and truest side of the college. Nor should we cease to remember that much of the success of a paper such as the Collegian is, depends directly upon the. alumni, and unless the paper can be made inter- esting from their point of view, we can scarcely look for any very enthusiastic support. To sum up the past year briefly: primarily it has been a most successful one. Our alumni subscription list has been materially increased, our “bonded” debt has been somewhat reduced and in- terest on the part of the students has shown itself in every way and at all times. The publication of the Literary Number was certainly an event; it is to be strongly hoped that the next board of editors will feel both the inclination and the ability to publish at least one Literary Number during the year. Unless the unexpected should occur, we think that we are safe in predicting for the Kenyon Col- legian a continuous healthy existence, leading year by year to a broader usefulness and a more solid worth.

The society is no longer forced to meet in the Greek room, as was the case last year. During the summer, the Hall was cleared of its roomers and placed in its normal condi- tion. The return to the usual quarters gave an impetus to the interest in the society. The old members felt encouraged and the new ones could see that the organization is not backward. From this first appearance at the meetings in the Autumn, these newcomers have exhibited great interest in the objects of the society and have proved themselves embryonic speakers and orators. The meetings have been well attended; the programs full of life. The program committees made it a point to select interesting subjects, subjects which appeal to the men as being vital, and upon which they have some opinion. In this the committees have suc- ceeded admirably. Because of the nature of the topics furnished, the men have spent more time and thought in preparing their talks or speeches, than was their custom formerly. The meetings have been made, thereby, bright and refreshing. An effort was made to have a joint debate with Philo, in fact, a challenge was sent to that society, but owing to the peculiar grouping of other college activities, the debate could not be under- taken. One of these activities was the debate with a team from Ohio Wesleyan University. NITK was represented on the Kenyon team by one man. This member, however, does not prop- erly gauge the society's interest in the debate. Other speakers were unable to participate because of the pressure of their college work. Next year the society expects to carry off her due share of honors in debating. Last Commencement Week the reunion was held in the portico of Rosse Hall. Great enthusiasm was shown both by the under- graduates and by the alumni. Several stirring speeches were made concerning the past glories of NUK and of her future successes. It was then decided to bend every effort toward mak- ing the reunion in 1908, memorable in the history of the society. M. C.

Likewise, the history of Philo is but a smaller re- plica of the history of Kenyon—it has had the same periods of dis- tress, the same stretches of prosperity and like our Alma Mater, has at all times kept its original high ideals well in view. Philomathesian in the past has been identified prominently with every movement for a higher standard at Kenyon in the things that count. It points with pride to a long roll of dis- tinguished men, who confess that they received their earliest and best training in its hall. However, Philo’s glory does not wholly rest in the records of its splendid past. It is still a vital, living force in the literary life of Kenyon. It has not, of course, the wide scope of earlier days; its work has been divided among other organizations, which, by devoting their entire attention to their particular duties, perform them more efficiently than the old Society could. We are inclined to think that older Alumni under- estimate Philo's importance at the present day, because its work does not assume a more tangible form; because it no longer pub- lishes a magazine and holds “22nd Day exercises. True; but this work is still carried on and carried on well by other organiza- tions especially formed for that purpose. Philo has become purely a literary society and as such it today holds a respected and use- ful place among Kenyon activities. The work of the past year has been particularly gratifying. The programs were much more interesting and timely than last year and the whole life of the Society seemed enlivened by a new snap and vigor. We have an abundance of good material among the underclassmen, so that we are confident of a still more suc- cessful record next year. R. C.

Our annual tour which extended over eleven days from February twenty- sixth, including concerts and entertainments as follows: Coshoc- ton, dinner parties and a leap year dance; Akron, dinners, recep- tions and a supper for Kenyon’s friends and the men; Ravenna, a dance and smoker; numerous small parties at Geveland; Elyria, invitation to the Elks Annual Ball; Toledo, reception and dance, also special Ash Wednesday service by the Rev. L. E. Daniels and dance; Norwalk provided a dance. A separate trip took the clubs to Zanesville for a concert together with a reception and dance and an afternoon at the Masonic Club. Another fortunate arrangement gave us a Joint Concert in Columbus with the Amherst combined musical clubs. The Kenyon and Amherst Alumni of Columbus gave a joint smoker for the two clubs in the evening. Socially the clubs were a success. Musically we have the criti- cism from the papers of Toledo, Cleveland and Columbus which give us our relative standing with the Yale, Amherst, Princeton, Cornell and Harvard clubs. These combined successes which the Eastern organizations strive for were easily attained by Kenyon this year. The leaders and managers by serious efforts inculcated confidence and enthusiasm into the personnel of the clubs from the first. The inevitable result of such united endeavors is fast bring- ing the Kenyon Musical Clubs into recognition by the Eastern in- stitutions. To say that these annual trips are the means by which hundreds of the best people of the State are made familiar with Kenyon ideals is not too wide an assumption. It seems like health- ful publicity for us to send thirty-six Gambicr men directly to the homes of the cities from which the Kenyon type of man comes. The gratifying reports from the hosts on these trips prove their good will toward Kenyon and the gentlemanly students who come from the “Yale of the West.” The competition for the clubs shows that the men like the activity. Now what we want is a better or- ganized assurance from the Assembly on the Hill, and a ready response from Kenyon Alumni when it comes time to book concerts in subsequent years. Give the clubs the suggested support and in a few years the fair name of Kenyon will be a byword around the tables of the greater part of the best families in this section of the country. t page one hundred thirty-three Officers Leader Accompanist Business Manager Assistant Manager Second Assistant Manager Raymond Du Bois, 08 Walter Fuller Tunks, 'io Clarance Chaster Childs, ’09 Dabney Garvey Gayle, ’10 James Donald Henry, ’11 First Tenors • Raymond Du Bois Cahall ’08 John Hiatt Scott 'to Walter Robson McCowatt ’09 Walter Fuller Tunks 'io Hadley King Rood ’10 James Hoag Cable '11 Second Tenors Lester Leake Riley ’07 William Woodrow Cott ’09 Charles Holman Dun '09 Frederick Austin Cartmell ’10 Lawrence Edwin Colgrove 'io Walter Clark Darling ’11 Charles Barr Field 'll George Esler Fullerton ’11 First Bassos Lindus Cody Marsh '07 Frederick Dye McGlashan '08 Malcolm Cyrus Platt ’08 Mark Huntington Wiseman ’io Henry Kelley Davies ’08 Randall Anderson 'u Raymond Coles Gillette ’11 Second Bassos William Eberly Shaw ’09 Nathaniel John Belknap ’ll Clarence Chester Childs ’09 Edward Milton Peake ’11 Frank Black Beatty ’10 Charles Dale Siegchrist ’10 Earl Clifton Vogelsong ’11 page one hundred thirty-five OLIN CLUB Kenneth Frederic Luthy, '08.

The tale is a striking one and deals with the character of a people, their manners and mode dc litre, which during the reading impress one as being strangely and indescribably familiar, though I have been thus far unable to apply this fleeting feeling to any of the peoples within my historical knowledge. This story also differs somewhat from the original series in form. It will be remembered that the Arabian Nights tales are being narrated by Scheherazade to the king, under fear of imminent death—an undesirable consummation which she postpones by cleverly keeping the king’s interest in her tales at fever heat from night to night. The present story, however, is told by this fertile-minded queen during a certain day, to the baby Prince, the son of the king’s seventeenth wife, and, under the Zu- jocai law, the heir apparent. I have but poorly translated the tale I fear, as it is almost impossible to put into our prosaic language the highly colored, Oriental naivete of the Queens words. Scheherazade and the young Prince are reclining on a pillowed divan in the Court of the Thousand Fountains and the baby boy, having become weary of sticking his small scimitcr into the back of his favorite Ethiopian slave, clamors for a story. The Queen relates as follows: fi Sinbad the Sailor, O Prince, having returned from his eighth voyage, remained quietly at home for sometime, living in the great- est luxury. || After awhile, however, he began to crave for more adventures, so suddenly one wild and windy night he set out from Bagdad and traveled toward the source of the Flickering Lighten- ing. || He crossed a dark and rocky plain and after many, many nights came to the sullen chain of hills which surrounds the Valley of Murdered Children. || He stopped not, however, Best Beloved, but held his ears against the screams and whimperings which come page one hundred fifty-aeven always from this terrible place, and ran on and on until these night- mare hills were but a black blot against the setting sun. Here he came to the Dark, Dismal, Dirty, Doleful River of De- lerium, which flows out from the Desert where it is always raining great, black boulders. || Near where the River flows into the For- gotten Sea, Sinbad came bravely, though somewhat shaken by the terrors all about him. || But the River was wide and green and greasy, and Sinbad sat down and cried because he could not cross. He dared not go back. || And he was grinned at, hooted at, chat- tered at, by monkeys, by parroquets, by cocatoos. || He knew not what to do. || But presently, O Prince, a great, kind-faced croco- dile came swimming up through the green and greasy water and spake to Sinbad. || He mounted on the crocodile’s scaly back and it carried him swiftly across to the other bank. || And he was glad, O Beauteous Child, to leave behind that terrible, turbulent country, so he ran and ran looking fearfully behind him. || So frightened was he that he saw not that he was approaching the brink of a high cliff, and still looking backward, Sinbad ran straight over the edge. || He plunged down and down and finally fell with a great, white splash into a blue, beautiful lake. At this point the manuscript becomes untranslatable except in detached phrases, for several pages. The editor regrets extremely that he is unable to give the world the Great Sailor’s adventures during this period of his voyage. Sinbad now seems to reach an Elysian land, and it is his feelings and thoughts concerning what he sees that seem to strike the familiar chord before referred to. The tale resumes: U After his adventure with the Fourty-four Robbers of Poojamus, Sinbad traveled on over the most beautiful of beautiful countries. || All about him were pretty home-like fields and long stretches of sweet smelling woods. || The wonderful, wistful, wildflowers, smil- ing up at the birds, grew very thick, even down to the edge of the little silver river which twisted gracefully between its green vel- vet banks of soft grass. || Sinbad followed this little river, O Prince, for a long distance and at last came to a place where it curved like a loving arm about a wonderful, wooded Hill. || Here he stopped and breathed long and deeply. || He felt his heart thril- ling in him. || The air seemed purer here and the sky a deeper blue; the clouds seemed more fleecy and the earth clad in brighter colors. || And Sinbad feeling the gush of his blood and the flow of his life said, Praise be to Mahmud. || He has guided my wan- p«ge one hundred fifty-eight derings at last to Paradise. [| Casting his eyes on high, he saw standing upon the top of the Hill, a knightly building softly buried among caressing trees. And with a cry he reached out his hands and started forward. || II And there before him stretched long, lovely, sun-lighted lawns of perfect green. || In the middle, from the soft, dark shadow of the old castle, there extended a wide Path, all roofed in by a tunnel of maple leaves. || And the sun slanting down through the leaves paved the Path with irregular slabs of shining new gold and dark, burnished copper. || Away through the trees Sinbad caught glimpses of old, bashful, buildings of brown, with the vines cling- ing lovingly about them, O Prince, as the hair clings about thy forehead—there. || [Editor's Note—It will be remembered, of course, that the Prince’s face, he being a Persian, was brown, so the Queen’s simile is at least partially correct.) Beyond the buildings was a little, peaceful village and further, through the maze of trees, a palace where beautiful maidens were imprisoned and weeping. || But, Oh! if thou wert there, Heaven Bom, thou shouldst not go near this place, for all who do lose some- thing of them which is precious. Some lose their Hearts, some lose their Heads; many who go have already lost their Eyes. And at the end of the Path Sinbad saw a large cloistered build- ing where lived the priests of the country. || Some of them were stalking about the grounds, their turbaned heads bowed thought- fully, and their minds far, far away. || But Sinbad looking closely, thought he saw a few who, though their heads wrere bowed, looked out sideways upon the world with glittering, greedy eyes. Ah. || I know not why. || These tilings be with Allah. || And then, Child of the Dewy Morning, he turned back to the Place of the Beautiful Buildings. || For now he heard the shouts and laughter of many happy voices. || He saw a throng of glow- ing-faced young men. glorying in the sweetness of their lives and in the beauty of their Country. || Only a few there were upon whom sat the heavy, sullen mantle of Self-Importance. || These were easy to distinguish though they knew' it not. || But for the most part they were happy, good, care-free boys, who loved each other and the Land there where they lived in a simple unselfish, soulful fashion. || The great, green monster Jealousy crept slimily in the background, but there were not many who wore his horried sting in their bosoms. || Praise be to the Prophet! || page one hundred fifty-nine fl And now they laughed and romped and sang. || Some walked slowly down towards the castle with their faces buried in dry, crack- ling scrolls from which they were reading; others practiced at games of war so that they might fight for the glory and honor of their Land; and some stood about arm in arm singing songs, and others played tinkling instruments; others there were who did nothing but run aimlessly about like dizzy, drunken butterflies. || But from them all came an oft repeated word—a strange, soft word, musical and soul-stirring. || Sinbad cried aloud with delight when it came to his ear—KENYON! || The singers sang about it lovingly, the warriors shouted it wildly, and all either murmured or cried aloud, Kenyon! Kenyon! || Even those with the scrolls were seen to smile and softly repeat the magic name. || It was like the en- chanted word of Ali Baba, O Prince, and it opened the hearts of those young men. || Sinbad thrilled at its sound, for he felt that this word fitted the beauty and the glory of it all so well that it must have been the name of their Land, which they loved. And Sinbad wrapped his mantle about him and seated himself upon the grass to meditate. || He sat long, silently smiling and looking out across the peaceful, playful valley. || And anon there came from a turreted building across the lawns a dark procession of Strange Men wrapped in robes of Learning. || These, Ah!—these were the rulers of the Land. |; Some strode silently, some talked in low, fierce whispers; some had bare, pallid faces and some were fearfully bearded, O Child of the Sun, like the Keeper of the Mosque. ft In the fore there stamped an iron-faced man of terrible aspect. His head was square like a block of stone and from his lip there grew many stiff bristles. || He ground his teeth and growled, for he was in anger—always. This man was the Grand Vizier of the Land, called by the strange name of ReGisTrar. || This word is pronounced, O Best Beloved, by a hissing noise through the clenched teeth. || At his side Sinbad observed a man who walked with a spring)', jaunty step and an erect body. || He was clothed in pretty rainment like a Bridegroom and on his face there hanged a pointed silken beard. || This man was very brilliant in mind as well as in appearance. || For whenever he spake all listened smiling, for they knew that he was ever wont to say something clever and pleasing. | Even Sinbad smiled as he watched him hasten onward, like a camel toward a distant oasis. page one hundred sixty And then there passed many men of strange aspect and demeanor. || One was chasing butterflies with a beautiful pink net; one was lurching on shrilly crying, ‘Rules! rules! learn thy rules! and one strode along wearing on his feet curious sandals of gum. || They and many more passed and then came an impressive silence. || The sky grew dark and troubled and the wind sighed and sobbed. || The boys were hushed and trembling, and birds crept fearfully to their shelters in the bowers of leaves. Sinbad drew his mantle tight about him and shuddered. || Then from the turreted building there stalked a man—alone. || He was tall and thin and he was dressed all in black. || On his head there was much hair, even like the chrysanthemums of the field. || His brows were tied into a hard knot and his face was very, very pale. || This Sinbad knew instantly to be the Great Prince of the Land, and he salaamed with his forehead upon the ground. || The Great Prince strode on. || He knew not of the fluttering, fearful hearts about him. || His mind was far, far away in realms above. || A great ruler was this man, by the Beard of the Prophet! His eye was steel and his hand was iron. || He was a paradox of cruelty and kindness. || His mind was a subtile labyrinth, yet he was withal, diaphanous. || He was as a rock of granite in a field of flowers, yet he was as a ser- pent in a bed of violets. || Truly Allah is wonderful in his crea- tions. || ♦ The Queen goes on from this point at some length, philosophiz- ing upon the character of the Great Prince and his subjects. The matter of her thoughts, however, is rather too Oriental to be fully comprehended and appreciated by a Western mind. Besides, for reasons of State, the editor feels it advisable to suppress her opin- ions, not only because of their Eastern logic, tinctured with Mo- hammedan cynicism, but also because the good Queen comes a lit- tle too near the real truth. As to Sinbad’s return to his native land, nothing is told. Either the Queen forgot him in her speculations on the Strange Men and their subjects or else these same speculations put the baby Prince to sleep. Probably the latter. It is a matter of history, how- ever, that Sinbad made several later voyages from Bagdad, so he must, perforce, have left this land. Judging from his descriptions of its wonders, I should say—so much the worse for him. K. L. page one hundred sixty-one Harcourt Last year Harcourt stood like an abomination of desolation in our midst, even though a few of that species of animals which a cousin of ours from across the water has been pleased to compare to “forked-radishes,” did inhabit the recesses of Mcllvaine. Hap- pily that time is now past and it must be confessed that the flutter of light dresses through the trees is far more agreeable to the eyes of college men, even though exiled without the hedge. The memories of Gambier will be all the richer for bright flashes of dancing and song and perhaps the recollection of a face that most innocently used to get between the pages and with one guileless glance turn a whole table of logarithms into a hopeless tangle or a chapter of Livy into a pathless wilderness. And the twinkle of a candle in answer to a song of nights, docs more to give zest to the singing and to warm the hearts of the singers, than the full radiance of the moon and all her celestial hosts. Kenyon and all Gambier rejoice to see Harcourt alive once more, and the radish-patch turned into a flower-garden. The birds of the spring, full-chorusing, Have wakened the flowers that slept last fall; The trees are a-leaf and the nights distil dew, While the pale sky warms to a richer blue— Oh, the earth is a garden all! A garden I know where bud and blow Sweet flowers in myriad colors arrayed; ’Tis girt by a hedge and is tended with care, And the blossoms it fosters are wondrously fair— For every flower is a maid. Oh, swiftly may fly the seasons by In annual encore, year upon year; But spring-time perpetual bides on the Hill, For the flower-maids bloom in warm weather or chill, In our garden at old Gambier. page one hundred sixty-three The Pilgrimage to Geek (A Tragedy in One Act.)

(A Methodist Church of prcdeluvian architecture is discovered, the stage of which is painted over with the musical clubs. The Mandolins, are the Washburn, Metzger and Wucbker brands. Some of the cadds have false beards, others tan shoes and red ties. One wears his Knight of the Boston Garter ribbon across his Charles Stanton dress shirt). (Glee Gub, lead by etc., etc., Cahall, sings “We are marching, we are marching”). (Some applause as they re- tire). (Enter Mandolin Club). Leader Luthy.—Hock der pitch giestuncken for ein soprano man- dolins! (They take the pitch by aid of pitch pipe). Dragoush der pitch fir ein lunkheaden alton mandolins! (They take the pitch). Voice from row.—Get on to the one on the end. (Student referred to pales perceptibly). Manager Childs.—(After disgraceful smear is ended by mandolins. Strides to front center). Messrs. Fullerton and Wiseman have at last consented to give their world famous ducts. (They ap- pear and tease out “Poor John” and “Nearer My God to Thee,” followed by “Bye, Bye, Dearie.” The Glee Gub make some horrible attempts. Childs coming out of a deep reverie on a faculty meeting he lately attended, delivers himself of a trom- bone solo with his own variations). Voice from Row II.—I can’t hold back much longer, let me at him! (Childs fades, longing for the protection of the faculty room). Enter Field in tights and quasi-Pierrot costume. “The other day as I was strolling down the street” follows some jokes which Noah had the presence of mind to save from the Deluge. Loud uproar in Audience. One man laughs). Childs.—The next impromptu number will be a musical skit by Cott and Wiseman. (Enter Cott and Wiseman.

Old Whiteboard in Row V.—(Getting up with a grumble). I’ve been in this church for nigh onto 50 years and this is the first dancink in it I’ve ever seen. (Stalks tragically out). Voice from Rozu II.—This is going too far, I think. (Students turn pale and cast apprehensive glances around). (Great commotion at door just as Childs is practising “College pranks” on McGlashan. Cott, Shaw and Anderson are giving class yells. Coolidge, White and Bentley appear in doorway. Im- mediately Childs springs over the rail and tears down the aisle and after a heated argument returns in triumph with Cool- idge). Childs (bowing low to audience).—For the edification and en- lightenment of this here audience, we will now attempt to present them things known as “Athletic Poses.” (Standing Coolidge up). The wrong way to tackle! (leaps upon his neck) The right way! (Both crash to floor). Coolidge (rising and bowing gracefully).—The right way always wins. I shall now endeavor to give a representation of the right and wrong way to start in a race. (He humps himself up on all fours and at the word “Go” falls over on his back). The right way! (He crouches down and at “Go,” darts off. but mistaking the distance crashes over the communion rail). (Coligrove demonstrates the two ways of pitching a ball). Voice from Rozu III.—We skinned the the life out of them fellows a few years ago and they try to teach us how to throw a ball. Oh! this is too much-let me-----!! (Violent tumult that soon subsides). Clubs line up for the “Goodnight Song and Yell”). ( Both clubs sing “Old Gambier in the days to lx?.” Childs lifts Coolidge on his shoulders and the latter with mandolin as baton keeps time). Childs (stepping four and one paces to the front ala buckhall. raises right hand to the northeast and fills his lungs for a shout. The Concert is ended. page one hundred sixty-six A Freshman Shower By Permission of the ‘Kenyon Collegian On a chill night in December I was pounding hard my car, When a shrill, confused shouting Outside I chanced to hear. “ Tis some Sophomore convention ’ I muttered, then with dread, And my head I swiftly buried ’Neath the covers of my bed. The noises still continued, And filled with fear and doubt, I strained my ears to listen What the clamor was about. And by my patient vigil I ascertained eftsoon, That everyone was shouting About some rings around the moon. “Hully Gee!” exclaimed the man upstairs, Said another, ‘‘Ain’t it grand, It’s one of Nature’s mysteries, That we can't understand.” “Methinks,” said I, ‘‘it is a sight That must instruct and please, To call from learned Sophomores Such expletives as these.” page one hundred sixty seven Then warily and cautiously I raised the window wide, And gazing coyly skyward I thrust my head outside. Came a sound of rushing waters As of great Niagara’s roar, And I received the contents Of some twenty pails, or more. I loudly voiced my anguish In a long heart-rending howl, And I madly wreaked my vengeance On my roommate’s turkish towel. And I kicked my trunk asunder With all strength within my power, When I heard some one remarking, About “the pleasant little shower.” “What’s the matter with the Freshman,” Someone asked, “Is he in pain ?” And a voice replying whispered, “He has water on the brain.” These words of cruel mocking Fell on my heart like lead; And mournfully and sadly I hied me back to bed. I’ve learned many things at college, But the greatest of them all. Is to curb my curiosity, No matter what befall. And though now it be reported That fire blaze in the sky, I keep my cranium inside And just wink the other eye. G A. page one hundred sixty-eight The Levee Negro (By Permission of the English Dept.) The negro of the levee is entirely animal in his nature. By using the term animal I mean nothing disrespectful or disparaging, but simply that the negro is governed by primeval instincts. Reason has absolutely no place in his make-up and when he acts he acts solely as his desires and passions dictate. He cannot govern his im- pulses and they sweep over him in a terrific blast, shaking him and inclining him this way and that, like a reed bent by every wanton wind. He leads a vagrant life and travels up and down the river on various steamboats, carrying nothing with him but the clothing he wears and perhaps a banjo or some kindred musical instrument. Wander-lust is strong within him and he is never contented to re- main long in one locality. Any place he lays his head is “home sweet home.” That.is, for awhile. Then he is off again seeking new climes and new adventures. When prosperous, he sleeps in the cheap lodging houses that crowd the wharves of every river town. Here he sings, flirts, dances and gorges himself with com whiskey, until in his maudlin state, he is an easy prey to the proprietor, who promptly relieves him of his “wad” and casts him adrift. With a split head he is thrust into the night and finds a bed in some empty coal barge or upon some friendly, low roof. Then the next morning he awakes, drinks oceans of water and vows never to do it again. The next payday, however, he repeats his orgy and goes through the same agony of remorse. The levee negro considers water as one of the plagues of Israel and except for impromptu dips in the river, he doesn't bathe for months at a time. Internally, he looks upon water as a neces- sary evil and while he has the price of an intoxicating substitute, refuses to drink it. Forcefulness and decision are minus quantities in his character and he is as putty in the hands of a skillful manipulator. For this reason his vote is easily bought and sold and he becomes the pawn page one hundred aixty-nine whose movements are decided by the boss whose purse is the fattest. He is easily roused into anger and while his temper lasts he goes about like a roaring lion, “seeking whom he may devour. When thoroughly roused he goes into a very paroxysm of rage and noth- ing short of murder will satisfy him. Yet when the storm has passed, he is like a child and weeps and mourns in sack cloth and ashes over what he has done. His repentance, however, is as short- lived as his rage. He soon forgets both the deed and his sorrow and becomes the irresponsible vagrant who laughs and smiles like a wanderer from A ready who has never tasted the fruit of the knowl- edge of good and evil. He is primarily a child, a child of evanescent moods, who weeps, laughs and is provoked in one and the same breath. His fancy is taken up with glittering baubles and toys, and while he admires and fondles these, he allows the deeper and real treasures of life to pass unheeded. Sometimes he vaguely realizes this and groping blindly after things unattainable, he is plunged into deepest sadness and melancholy. His friend at this time is his banjo, and to its accom- paniment, he pours out upon the night air floods of such wistful melody that they bring tears to the eyes. It is my belief that in this way all the old negro folk songs and plantation melodics origi- nated. In some ways he has a poet’s temperament for there is no one more appreciative of the charm of a summer night, a pretty land- scape, or the strains of sweet music. True, he is carnal and sen- sual and he spends most of his life groveling in the mire, but oc- casionally he is lifted out of himself and dwells among the gods. A strain of soft melody will move him to tears, and at such times thoughts and dreams stir within him which cleanse and purify him and lift him from the level of the beast. He cannot express these things which he feels for he lacks the power, but they exist al- though no expression is given to them. He is a child whose whims and caprices are beyond his control. W ith him to think is to act. He doesn’t stop to reason about right or wrong but acts entirely upon impulse. He was created thus and unless we consider this in judging him, we do him grievous wrong. Let us temper our judgment with a little discrimination and charity. Let us give him a square deal. Until we do he will remain a child and may degenerate into a brute. Let us keep him from that stage and aid him to climb upward in this “glorious land of the free, in- stead of treading him more deeply into the mire. page one hundred seventy The Curtain Rises Sept. 17. 18. 19. 20. 23- 24. 25- 26. 27- 28.

Chorus— The Year at Kenyon Air—“Annie Laurie ' 1. The years at Kenyon College have from us slipped away, But memories’ kindly finger will turn them back to-day. Will turn them back to-day, and we’ll be young once more. College days to live again as we were wont of yore. 2. Again we feel our smugglings, our kindly rivalry, And cheer our athletes onward to well earned victory. To well earned victory, and honor to the hill, And to Kenyon, Kenyon College, we lay our greatest skill. ♦ page one hundred eighty-three 3. Our essays unsuccessful, and where we earned our due, Our training for life’s labors, to thee was wholly due, To thee was wholly due, and is our strength to-day, O Kenyon, fount of learning, the Pole Star of our way. 4. O, we will ne’er forget thee, our honor and our pride, The blessing of thy nurture, all others fade beside. We pledge outselves to build thee, greater and more high, And for thee our Alma Mater, we’ll gladly live and die. Foot Ball Song Tune—“Our Director.” Hard luck in football, Poor Old U. C.

Hard luck in football, etc. Philander Chase Air—“The Pope.” The first of Kenyon’s goodly race Was that great man, Philander Chase: He climbed the Hill and said a prayer, And founded Kenyon College there! He dug up stones, he chopped down trees, He sailed across the stormy seas. And begged at every noble’s door, And also that of Hannah More. page one hundred eighty-four The king, the queen, the lords, the carls, They gave their crowns, they gave their pearls; Until Philander had enough, And hurried homeward with the stuff. He built the college, built the dam, He milked the cow, he smoked the ham, He taught the classes, rang the bell, And spanked the naughty Freshmen well! And so he worked with all his might For Kenyon College day and night; And Kenyon's heart still keeps a place Of love for old Philander Chase! Doctor Mark Air—“The Pope. One summer day as Uncle Mark Was strolling in the Kenyon Park, They took and hauled him to the Gym, And made a doctor out of him. “If I’m a doctor, then says he, “ Tis not of Homeopathy! “So take, in place of little pill, “This Fifty Thousand Dollar bill! Good Doctor Mark, already we Experience new vitality. If other doctors dosed like that, How quickly we’d get plump and fat! “Singing on the Path There’s a straight, broad Path in old Gambier town, And it runs for a mile or more, From Kenyon College, up and down, And it ends at Bexley’s door; And the maple boughs reach over the Path, And the men, as they walk along, In the shade by day, or the moonlight’s ray, Fill the air with their genial song. page one hundred eighty-five Here from day to day and from year to year, Has good friendship grown apace, As brother has walked with brother dear, Or the Path was their meeting place. And the list’ning trees catch many a word, Many jest, as they walk along, But the dearest thing is to hear them sing Day and night in their genial song. There are times when the glance of a pretty face, Or the flash of a pretty gown, Make the dear old Path a lovlier place As the men walk up and down. There are times when at night her lamp gleams bright And her heart beats quick and strong, As some maiden hears from the Path below The sound of the genial song. As the years shall pass, oh, how much shall fade Of the best that we feel and know! But never shall fade the friendship made On the Path where the maples grow! And never, while Mem’ry keeps her hold On the things that to her belong, Shall we cease to hear with the inward ear The voice of that genial song! Hymn Written by the Rev. Daniel C. Roberts ’6i for the National Centennial Fourth of July Celebration in 1876. God of our fathers, whose almighty hand Leads forth in beauty all the starry band Of shining worlds in splendor through the skies, Our grateful songs before Thy throne arise. Thy love divine hath led us in the past, In this free land our lot by Thee is cast: Be Thou our ruler, guardian, guide and stay, lhy word our law, Thy paths our chosen way. page one hundred eighty-six « From war’s alarms, from deadly pestilence, Be Thy strong arm our ever sure defence; Thy true religion in our hearts increase, Thy bounteous goodness nourish us in peace. Refresh Thy people on their toilsome way, Lead us from night to never ending day; Fill all our lives with love and grace divine, And glory, laud and praise be ever Thine. Amen. The Hika Song O it’s Kenyon on the campus and it’s Kenyon on the hill, Hika, hika, hika, all the day! O it's Kenyon with a spirit and it’s Kenyon with a will, Hika, hika, hika, and away! When the valley’s filled with the sun and the dew, And the waking world wants its dream come true, Then it’s Kenyon, then it’s Kenyon, and away! O it’s Kenyon on the diamond and it’s Kenyon on the field, Hika, hika, hika, all your might! O it’s Kenyon never falter and it’s Kenyon never yield, Hika, hika, hika, for a fight! When the men line up, and all grows still, And the bright eyes watch from the slope of the hill, Then it’s Kenyon, then it’s Kenyon, for a fight! O it’s Kenyon for a friendship, and it’s Kenyon with a grip, Hika, hika, hika, all the night! O it’s Kenyon in the gloaming with a song upon the lip, Hika, hika, hika, till day-light! When the darksome owl lifts his only tune, And the far watch-dog bays under the moon, Then it’s Kenyon, then it’s Kenyon, all the night! At Kenyon College By Katharine Dooris Sharp. Along the path with loitering feet, The musing student passed; Low overhead the maples meet, And whisperinglv each other greet; Cool is the shade they cast, page one hundred eighty-seven In village calm fair Gambier sleeps. Hark to the chime that clearly sweeps: “Lord thro’ this hour Be Thou our Guide, That by Thy power No foot may slide.” Old Kenyon's walls in massive stone Above the valley stand, While Nature’s gorgeous tints alone, A gold and scarlet tapestry thrown, Bedecks the varied land. Ceres no choicer picture weaves; October and the Feast of Leaves. “No lovelier scene,’ the student thought, “Was e’er beheld by me!” And with th’ enchanting fabric wrought, Grand memories of the past are brought In fleeting fantasy, They pass, an honored, noble train, Chase and Bedell and Mcllvaine. And many more whose names are writ Among the good and great; For gracious lives like theirs 'tis fit No grace of setting be omit. To mark their ordered state. Old England’s meres and woodlands fair With thine, Kokosing may compare. O spirits of the lofty dead Whose lives enriched these hills, Be all the old paths hallowed To the young feet that o’er them tread, Light hearts and wandering wills. Good Spirits! on the balmy airs, Still ring the memory of your prayers: “Lord thro’ this hour Be Thou our Guide, That by Thy power No foot may slide! Amen. page one hundred eighty-eight Kenyon on the Kokosing Hail Kenyon, time-worn, forest-girt, Embowered in green, or ’seiged with snow, About thy walls and through thy halls, With Echo dwells a Voice that calls Where Memory loves to go. Old Kenyon, massive ivy-clad, Serene thou sittest on thy hill, Around whose base, with winsome grace, The Indian naiad of the place, Kokosing, glideth still. Dear Alma Mater, dost recall The legion boys who loved thy name?— Who were thine own, but now are flown, Successful some, some overthrown, While some are known to Fame? Mother of all, didst love as well Thy roysterers as thy sober men! What jokes they sprung, what songs they sung What Botnshclls burst, what bells they rung, Does all come back again ? I prithee say, dost thou recall Our Saturday and Wednesday nights, Our oyster stews, night-shirt reviews, Our war-dance, which none might refuse, And hard-fought pillow fights? Ha, tell me not thou hast forgot What time the sleep of stilly night The Baby broke, with thunder stroke, And panic-stricken Freshmen woke To soar in sore affright? Remember! Ah, stone walls have ears, Perhaps a heart, in walls so thick, That loves its own, like faithful stone That ’bides when Time has overthrown All transitory brick? page one hundred eighty-nine Farewell, abide Old Kenyon Hall, In mem’ries lapt upon thy Hill, While 'round the steep, through vistas deep The Indian naiad plays 'bo-peep’— Kokosing gliding still! Old Tonans Old Tonans, hear him boom! He is calling with a will— Calling down from the crown Of Old Kenyon on the Hill. You are sleeping, sweetly sleeping, In the “Middle” or a “Wing;” You are dreaming, bravely dreaming, When you hear Old Tonans ring. Old Tonans, hear him boom! How he shakes you like a chill!— Calling down from the crown Of Old Kenyon on the Hill. How he booms out! How he bellows: “Hustle up and out, you fellows!’' With your duds you madly grapple. And you hurry out to Chapel. Old Tonans, hear him boom! He is calling with a will— Calling down from the crown Of Old Kenyon on the Hill. And sometimes you are reposing On a bank of the Kokosing, When you're due at Hall Ascension For a spell at Greek declension. Old Tonans, hear him boom! (You old grampus, take a pill!) Calling down from the crown Of Old Kenyon on the Hill. hundred ninety Or perhaps you are returnin’ From a-larking at Mt. Vernon. What’s that grumble and that groan Rolling over the Backbone? Old Tonans, hear him boom! (And you feel a trifle ill) Calling down from the crown Of Old Kenyon on the Hill. But suppose you’ve been away For a decade and a day, And you’re coming back alone! Then you hear a golden tone. Old Tonans, hear him boom! There’s a welcome for you still! Calling down from the crown Of Old Kenyon on the Hill. Vr. St. Clair Creighton. Prelude to Poem: Bugling the March to the Gates Read before Alumni, June, 1885 So many days have gone Since I heard the bells of Kenyon, Calling down through all the campus O’er the Hillside to the river,— By the windings of Kokosing, Where I fished and swam and boated In the halcyon days departed!— Calling far o’er drowsy Gambier Unto Bexley, Harcourt, Milnor— (Erst the Hall of the Barbarians, Of the sub-fresh and the “penes” Trained to baseball and declensions, And to inter-necine warfare ’Twixt the Zeta Phis and Kappas—) So many days have fled Since I heard the bells of Kenyon Call to class-room and to Chapel From the steeple over yonder On the fortress of Old College, page one hundred ninety-one That when once, today, I heard them It was with a rush of mem’ries, Such as comes with old time music, Not that any should imagine That my sole concerns at College My professors knew much better; For I trained with those who shouted “Caq e diem” for athletics, But in class “Festina lente!” I should miss Professor Trimble, With his snowy crown and blushes, With his “Taisez vous!” and “Construe!’' And his sweet, Hibernian scanning— Scorning puns and chiding punsters (Though they made his eyes to twinkle) Mighty zeus, the cloud-compeller! Shades of Aeschylus and Homer! He deserved the life immortal, And I’m sure he is in Heaven With the Greeks he loved, tonight! “In tristitia hilaris, In hilaritate tristis!”— We are marching to the Gates— Air—“Landlord, Fill Your Flowing Bowl.

Come boys, let us fill up our glasses, As in old times we oft did before, And drink to the noblest of classes— All hail to our dear ’64. That we from reproach be protected, Old customs should all be revived; The Ivy so rudely neglected, Should, by old ’64, be supplied; We reflect with most exquisite pleasure Where we joyfully passed every year— The time that we spent at Old Fish’s, Drinking “the good lager beer.” Let us try to keep this from the Freshits, We know' they’re so anxious to ‘‘bore’' The best and the noblest of Gasses, Our much loved and dear “64.” Now that our course is all over, We haven’t done much after all, So we plant this old stick from the wildwood As an Emblem of Poor ’64! Class Day Song of ’65 Kenyon College, May, 1864. Come Mother Kenyon, ope thine arms, And take thy fledgeling offspring home, Which long have guarded us from harm, Ere we were smart enough to roam. For now we leave thy genial bower. Upheld by wisdom deep, profound. Free from the Prof's and Proxy's power. That oft has squashed us to the ground. page one hundred ninety-four Now we're the class of “Sixty-Five ,” That ne’er had trouble, strife or war, But what we undertook, it thrived (?)

Chorus—Hurrah for Sixty-Eight, For lucky Sixty-Eight, We’ll thank our stars in loud hurrahs, And sing for Sixty-Eight. But other joys our path attend To learning’s blissful seat Philosophy and Chemistry, And Logic’s order sweet, And Chaucer with his women good, And Spencer, calculate To join with Bacon to confound The Class of Sixty-Eight. Chorus—Hurrah for Sixty-Eight, For glorious Sixty-Eight, The race is won. our ponies gone, Good-bye to Sixty-Eight. page one hundred ninety-seven Rude Time shall ne’er with blighting breath Our friendship’s fire abate, Through life we’ll ever love thee dear, Old Kenyon’s Sixty-Eight.

Remembrance of our friendship true More fond than lovers ever knew Shall thrill us as we say adieu, Ere life the solemn gates unbar To Nineteen Seven. Fair Class, we chant thy fadeless fame, Our mystic sign thy magic name; We seat thee on this classic throne Resplendent goddess, all our own! Then raise the shout of loud acclaim To fan each fervent heart to flame, Through swiftly fleeting years the same, Thine ardent worshipers alone,— Fair Nineteen Seven.

Our college life is over; Our Alma Mater’s yoke is rent today; We leave her halls, but feel how well we love her, Those cherished halls where lin’gring fancies play. Backward to scenes where thoughtless days once found us, Poor Mem’ry flics, with love-supported wing, Breathes on ties that through the past have bound us, Inspiring rapture in the song we sing. Chorus. Cheer, boys, cheer! There’s bright and sunny weather To lure us on, and Hope to lead the way; Cheer, boys, cheer! Join hand and heart together; Cheer, boys, cheer! For the long expected day. 2. Cheer, boys, cheer! The world is wide before us, Our country claims the willing heart and hand; The way is clear, and heaven smiling o’er us, Ours be the will to labor for the land. page two hundred eight Long have we toiled, while Alma Mater cheering, Led us along beneath her guiding star; Now the reward is through the distance peering, Hope hies to grasp it in her blazing car.—Chorus. Cheer, boys, cheer! Let not one word of sorrow Redim the joy that animates tonight, We part, ’tis true, but part in love tomorrow; Let hearts be true, and all will then be bright. What though a tear from memory’s fountain starting,. Tells of distress far vanished long ago; Tis but a tribute to the bliss of parting, It gilds the cup whence life’s best pleasures flow.—Chorus. Cheer, boys, cheer! For the days we’ve spent together, Without a care, in Kenyon’s silent shade; Old Kenyon dear, bring myrtle boughs and wreathe her, Let music ring adown the sloping glade. For now she spreads her mantle here around us, To soothe our journey o’er life’s ocean wide; Draw close the ties that through the past have bound us, And launch our bark upon the flashing tide.—Chorus. Co-Ca-Che-Lunk Tell me not in mournful numbers, College life wags slowly by:— Nothing else but joy and pleasure Skuds along the student sky. Chorus. Co-ca-che-lunk-che-lunk-chc-lay-ly, Co-ca-che-lunk-che-lunk-che-lay, Co-ca-che-lunk-che-lunk-che-lay-ly, Hi! O Chick-a-chc-lunk-che-lay. We as Freshmen came to Kenyon, In a very verdent state; Now we splurge along the campus, Seniors, stately and sedate. Chorus—Co-ca-che-lunk, etc. page two hundred nine College life’s a perfect fizzle; Everybody ’ll tell you so. Students are like pasteboard figures Moving in a puppet show. Chorus—Co-ca-che-lunk, etc. We have galloped through the “Classics,” Some with “Ponies,” some without, Some with “Inter-lineations,” Few perhaps have thumped them out. Chorus—Co-ca-chc-lunk, etc. Mathematics are a nuisance, And “Rhetoricals” a bore; We have struggled nobly through them Somewhat wiser than before. Chorus—Co-ca-chc-lunk, etc. Fellows, let us swell the chorus, Shout for Alma Mater, O! Let the twin oaks bending o’er us, Catch our voices ere we go. Chorus—Co-ca-che-lunk, etc. Cherish then each kindly feeling With a brother’s open heart, Through life’s trials and endeavors Bear a manly noble part. Chorus—Co-ca-che-lunk, etc. All Together All together, all together, once more again. Hearts and voices light as ever, gladly join the welcome strain. Friendships link is still unbroken, bright is its chain; Where the parting words were spoken, now in smiles we meet again Chorus—O could we ever Dwell in social pelasure here, . No more to sever From the friends we love so dear. page two hundred ten While the absent we are greeting, let us forget, In this hour of social meeting, every thought of past regret; For the present, full of gladness, bids us be gay, Banish every cloud of sadness, and be happy while we may. When the warning, all must sever, comes once again, Still in feeling true as ever, shall our faithful hearts remain. Oft shall Memory, breathing o’er us sweet Friendship’s strain. Bring this happy hour before us, till we all shall meet again. Free From Care (Air:—“Landlord, fill the Flowing flbwl.”) Free from care, we’ll have good cheer, And shout the joyful chorus; Our paeans clear shall rend the air, And rouse the silent campus. Chorus—Hurrah for Sixty-Seven, boys! Shout the joyful Chorus; Raise her joys without alloys, To the heavens bending o’er us Sixty-Seven shall be our boast, Through trials and through sorrow; We’ll drink her health in many a toast, And stay till the dawning morrow. Chorus—Hurrah, etc. Then Sixty-Seven, one and all, Ring out the shout sonorous, Till Kenyon’s walls and lofty halls Shall echo to our chorus. Chorus—Hurrah, etc. H. P. Kelley, ’67. Parting Ode of ’67 (Air:—“Juvallera.”) Oh, strong is the tie that now binds us to thee, Beloved Alma Mater, so joyous and free, The bonds must be burst, though the heart strings should break And never unite till in glory we wake. Chorus—Juvallera, Juvallera, Ju-valle-valle-valle-ra. page two hundred eleven Farewell, beloved Teachers, thy counsels while here, We’ll cherish through life in our memor)' dear, For heartfelt emotions in gratitude rise To you who have taught us the wrong to despise. Chorus—Juvallera, etc. Ye Friends and Companions of happier days, Our voices to thee now in sadness we raise; But, O let your future be just as your past, Faithful, and upright, and true to the last. Chorus—Juvallera, etc. Adieu, beloved classmates, the fast flowing tear, In silence is telling of friendship sincere, Though parting in sorrow, we know that our love Shall end in a joyful reunion above. Chorus—Juvallera, etc. Adieu, dear old Kenyon, though now forced to part, Thy counsels forever shall cling to this heart; My soul is in sorrow—a tear dims my eye— God bless you, dear Mother—God bless you—Good Chorus—Juvallera, etc. D. Ha Farewell Song (Air:—“Gentle Annie.”) They are gone—those days spent so blithely ’Neath the beams of our Alma Mater’s smile— Gone, alas, like a dream passing lightly O’er the fancies which life’s sad hours beguik Chorus—Then in sorrow we must leave thee, While our hands and hearts be joined in And one last farewell fondly give thee, Though the world may still look coldly ot Ah, old Kenyon, at last we must sever The ties that bound thee to our heart, But ’tis sad to think that we ever Should be forced from thy fond embrace to part Chorus—Then in sorrow— page two hundred twelve We remember how first thou did'st cheer us, When our hearts with pride's young hopes did swell; And e'en yet as thy mem'ries endear us, We must sigh when we bid farewell. Chorus—Then in sorrow— Now the spring time of youth's early promise, Lit by glimpses of pleasure's brightest ray, In the summer of manhood glides from us, As it wakes us to life's more busy day. Chorus—Then in sorrow— Alumni Song (Air:—“God Save the King. ) I. Dear Kenyon, mother dear, We come to hail thee here— Old sons of thine; We come with reverent feet, Thy sacred wall to greet, The dear, dear friends to meet, Of auld lang syne. II. Dear mother, at thy knee, Right loyal children, we Bow as of yore; Accept the songs we sing, Trust the true hearts we bring; Under thy sheltering wing Take us once more. III. Ah! while we lowly bow Here close beside thee now, Hark! the old Bell! Old forms before us rise, Old mem’ries fill our eyes, Fond fancy, sobbing, tries Old tales to tell. page two hundred thirteen IV. Yes! yes! we know them well, Those hours the deep-toned bell Pealed swift away; Yes! yes! we know them yet, Forms we shall ne’er forget, Faces that once we met, Missed here to-day. V. Long as our life shall last Thoughts of that buried past Shall dearer grow. Far pilgrims though we be, Our hearts shall cling to thee, Our lives look back to see That long ago. VI. With thee our wishes dwell, For thee our love we’ll tell With voice and pen; And still our prayers we’ll pray— God keep thee every way— Amen! Amen! And all thy sons shall say— VII. Take, then, the song we sing, Trust the true hearts we bring— True as of yore; God bless and keep thee here, God bless thee year by year, God bless thee, Mother dear— Now—evermore. page two hundred fourteen LIST OF ILLUSTRATIONS Page.
