ASSISTANT MANAGER Edward Southworth --JJ l page twelve Editoris Foreword IGHTY years have passed since the founders of Kenyon College first climbed Gambier's lofty hillg two-thirds that number more have been recorded 'in history since the first modest volume of this publication appeared. During all these years Kenyon's sons have striven for the ideals, the aims, the objects for which men struggle. Some have climbed high, others have fallen and sunk into oblivion. But all took with them when they left Kenyon's halls, something gained during their residence here, and all contributed some mite at least from their own personalities toward Kenyon's glory and Kenyon's life. ill During the fifty-four years since its establishment the Reveille has tried each year to picture Kenyon life as it really isg its highest aim has ever been to reflect the ideals of Kenyon men and their strivings towards the fulfilment of these. As in the past, so in the present, the editors of the l909 Reveillen hope for nothing more than that our annual may be a clear mirror reflecting the Kenyon of to-day-not a Reveille represen- tative of any one class or group but representative of all and the best in all. U Two years ago the editors compared their volume of two hundred pages and more with the four page issues of the early seventies by way of pointing out the change in Kenyon's life, and the increased number of activities which absorb the time and attention of her undergraduate sons. Then it seemed that the high water mark of collegiate activities had been reached, but time has disproved this belief. The present volume con- tains recorcls of new organizations, new enterprises which show that Kenyon is still advancing and progressing. page thirteen F 4 . K Q.

The latter speak for themselves, and it were presumptuous in us even to put an estimate upon them. However we may with all propriety inform our readers as to the aims and purposes with which our work was done. But we find ourselves repeating. Qur aim has been--as we started in by saying--merely to give a true picture of Kenyon life, hallowed by the traditions of the past and inseparably bound up with the trials of the present and the aims for the future. Q, There is one feature of this volume, however, which we feel ourselves constrained to mention. in particular. Probably the most pleasing depart- ment of the entire book is the art work. Mr. Hann, who illustrated the H1907 Reveillen and who was formerly a member of the junior Class, has earned.the unbounded gratitude of the board by contributing a number of. drawings this year.. Several critics have pronounced these the finest ever. seen ina Kenyon year book. We might go on to tell of the manifold trials which have confronted usg of the periods of brightest hope alternating with the gloom of despair, asf the responsibilities of our task loomed large before usg of the joy with which. we saw. our work finally moulding and progressingg of the sighs, not wholly- of satisfaction, with which we realized this work was done. Or, we might. enumerate with apology and comment the new and distinrftive features of this particular volume. But nog these latter are for you, oh reader, to pick. out andcriticise. We would but ask that you remember all things and let your criticisms be kindly. page fourteen Tahle of Contents 11-1-i l- Editor's Foreword . College Calendar .

A Their innocent, smiling faces betray their lofty aims as they frolic over moss and throughfern in' their mad rush to father Neptune. No, life's work is not done then, the battle Has scarcely begun. They twist and turn and strive, now mounting the highest billow, now sinking into the trough, but onward, ever onward, is their cry. Each brooklet was a stranger, the river made them friends, then the mighty ocean .parted them again. Q ' H I-H Looking back we see our sources, They were sixty-five or more, s rin in u from no-where, ointinfr all-to Ken on's door. As Freshmen P g g P P D ,Y s we were innocent and smilingg we were strangers, too.

In W w-vwa-suing Jvunior? Franlenessii n--M.-.-.--.4 T is within the province of those who tall: of themselves 'neither to boast overmuch nor to depreciate theiriown value by false modesty. Thus, to take a middle ground of franlr, honest andmanlyiself-cona lidence, is what we shall attempt in this brief expression of our own qualities, both good according to F at, and good accordingttto' our own' estimate, between which there is truly a nice distinctionff 1 I ' 1 ' ill The Class of 1910, during its entire college course, hasstood firmly for scholarship, temperance and love of maniand woman kind, iAmong us there stand a lvebster, a Romeo and a Halstedg there sit aiUlysses,i and at fewest, three of the Aristotelian variety: Keane, Brummel and Ellen Terry have their prototypes, too. With a wreath lot grape vine about his head, a glass in one hand and a white glove inf the other, Omar, the Bacchanal, breathes forth his blessing upon all of these. qi There are many among us who have already given promise of greatness and those of usmore humble, raise to them eyes of admiration and our breasts fill with pride at the thought of them. Eagerness for reform has impelled one of our conscientious members with gun on hip and note-book in hand, to dive into the depths of society to procure data for the prepara- tion of a booli which shall revolutionize civilization. Another- is begin- ning thus early to emulate the immortal Reeves, who, with idiocyncratic eccentricity, has carved, painted, shot and tallied a niche I for himself in the walls of Old Ascension. . Q All but one of l9lO's band fought hard to prevent the calamity which our beloved community has suffered under Knox County's siccissima sicciias, and which, sad to relate, has so completely removed the yawning pit from before the footsteps of misguided youths. Sentiment and tradition, ever our guides, lifted us to flights of fancy and originality whence we page forty-live , e frantic exiles, could but smile indulgently at those less loftily placed. Th Vi th scorched so long despaired land of Egypt, and, as has ever been the case: i 'White walls might not unpainted go, Nor should Ascension live uncowedf' of, were rescued by our brave handsii rom e 11 But, leaving behind the pants of youth, we soon donned the trousers of manhood, fathering those who came after us with care and circumspect directness. Following the mandates of His Astute and Equitable Rever- ence, as well as of l-lis paradigmatic Germanity, we haveadjusted and ab- taken our turns at whistling on the time-wom fence where many before us have polished the negative pole.

Never before has the Sophomore history appeared other than in some form ol dream or reverie, and perhaps this vagary, appeasing as it is, beg fits the record in many cases. But not so with us, the Class of l9l l Q VJ e are not air-castle architects, but builders of sound history. We have ever pursuedta vigorous and aggressive policy and We know that We have a past and future that no dream, no matter how splendid and distinguished it might be, could fully justify. I Q Naturally, our first recollections are of our first days on The Hill. The hazing, While not altogether received with favor then, We now realize was one of the most powerful forces in developing our different person- alities and making us the staunch Kenyon men that We are to-day. Who of us will forget our gathering and nocturnal vigil in the little old log-cabin and the subsequent victory in our Freshman Cane Rush? And how we proved ourselves to be most loyal and hospitable entertainers, and later displayed artistic nature in bold red numerals? Q Although handicapped by the Freshman rule, We at once showed our worth on the football Held, turning out one of the strongest Freshman teams thatrever helped a Kenyon varsity eleven. This year five of our men made their letters on the best eleven Kenyon ever produced and will form the nucleus for next year's team. ln other sports we are equally strong and will continue, as we have in the past, to do our utmost in upholding the honor of our beloved Alma Mater.

We hav e endeavored to fulfill all the essential requirements of tradition, The Freshman Class was small this year, yet we are certain these ambitious youngsters have been instructed in ways that become Kenyon men and that their retribution will do honor to their artistic education. ill Kenyon has ever been nearest to our hearts in the past and in the lutur may we have the satisfaction of knowing that we have given our best efforts to her. -6 ftrff r , '-t it ' ft , W .1 ,, page lilty-eigllf Nineteen Hundred and Eleven CLASSCNUUCERS Hugh Leighton Simpson . . .

Ringaround the: Prayer Cross, and went to Chapel almost exhausted only to see above the door in large letters of Old English the words, Long Suffering. 'll The next evening brought forth what is known as the l'Freshman Min- strels, where an unusual amount of wit and talent was brought out by the aid of the gonkus maximus. it The night after the minstrels we, with the aid of a few juniors, left the Hill and spent the night in a hayloft planning the way we were to defend the cane the next day. Our planning was not in vain, as was shovm in the rush, for there was not a minute when the Freshmen were in danger of losing possession of the cane. 'll Soon after this we were introduced to the mysteries of the S. C. l., and since then have continued to attend their not infrequent meetings. fl We had a very strong football team this fall and the boys of l9l2 showed their Kenyon spirit by appearing on the field every afternoon ready to line up against the varsity, or to do whatever they could to help Coach Pierce turn out a winning team. Next year's eleven is sure to have a large representation from the Class of 1912. i 'll Nothing very exciting happened until about two weeks before the Christmas holidays when we discovered that we had been studying too hard and needed some diversion, so we stacked Ascension Hall to keep page sixty-live ' ri -'-- ' - f up the tradition that has long been observed. Soon after this we decided to put up a few signs and, late the appointed night, a crew of eight started out with posters and paste and succeeded in covering all the available space between the railroad station and Bexley Hall. Soon afterwards some large red twelvesn appeared on a number of the buildings in the village, but this was a mystery that has never been explained, ll The Class of 1912 is yet only a few months old, but a brilliantprospegl is opening up before us. We have come to Kenyon in pursuitrof knqwl. edge, and have enteredrupon our work with a .determination-to succeed.

O Life, thou art so dear, so dear, That even thy sad aftermath, The dead leaves on the Middle Path, And wreckage blown on winds of fear, Are sacred things for many a year, Laid by in Memory's treasure-chest In lavender and rose-leaves pressed, Worth naught less precious than a tear. And, Life, thou art so sweet, so sweet, That when we build, in daring thought, A heaven tofit our longings wrought, We find no forms worthy and meet But those we've known in field, or street, Where waters How and flowers bloom, Gr, in some festal-lighted room, Where loving friends each other greet. p Yet, Life, thou art so strong, so strong, That when thou tookestbrimming up ' One fragile crystal drinking cup To quaff the red wine off in song, Thou didst our banquet piteous wrongg For in thy fingers' fervid clutch , . Thou strainedst the frailglass ovennuch- O L'Hommedieu! how long,-how long. Thy brave goodby! how far, how far Thy journeying! lntothe dark Hath disappeared thy lightsome bark Beyond that elemental bar Where earth's intensest terrors are, Into some vast and twilight sea With continents of mystery, Beneath some supra-polar star. 'Tis long, 'tis farg and yet, and yet, We seem to see thee gay andstrong L Sailing some magic shore along, Life still upon thy forehead set A' garland with death's dew-drops wet, Life still the sword within thy hand As- forth thou leapest on the strand- O L Hommedieu! do not forget!

We even think that we are right in thinking that there is much of which we should be proud. We glory in the past of ouricollege, its history and its alumni. There is for usno' other college quite equal to Kenyon and there never can be. Someehave been heard to apply that awful epithet swell headedn to us, but we have. merely laughed and yelled the louder at the next game. Of such stuff is- Kenyon spirit made. lull However, we would not willingly. let the impression gain ground that we are vainly boasting with nothing of which to boast. We claim and we think there is justice in our claim, that Kenyon is the most ath- letic college in the stateg and some, at lean, of our good newspaper friends last fall allowed our contention. lj With sixty eligible men we turned out a football team which tied for first honors in the state. Our basketball team, while not victorious as ay whole, defeated our good friends and rivals, Western Reserve. We are at present, with somewhat less than sixty eligible men fthe faculty having struck off the heads, metaphorically speaking, of a few unfortunatesl, creditably supporting three athletic teams, baseball, track and tennis, in competition with colleges and universities of from five to twenty times our size. Nor is this all. A recent canvass of the college showed only eight men on the hill who did not regularly engage in some form Of athletics. Can any of our vaunted rivals say as much? page one hundred Sl! -f.......w...r vi. ,-A 'f -et N AM' 'A' 'W' H - H ----A-H P-L1-urzrxfx i-1 G. S. Captain W. W. Manager FOGTBALL IGHT victories and one defeat, tied with Western Reserve University for the championship of Uhio, is the grand record of Kenyon's 1908 football team, a record upon which all Kenyon men can look with pride and satisfaction. Although the losing of the one game to Ohio State is a source of regret, We feel confident that if the game were to be played tomorrow, Kenyon would come out the victor. The defeat can be Wholly attributed to the fact that Kenyon's machine-like team- work was broken by the loss of several of her players early in the first half. ill The 'record of the season far exceeds the fondest expectations at the beginning of the year. Four days prior to the opening of college Munro, who had been engaged as coach, sent in his resignation. Nego- tiations Were at once opened with several football experts, and in several days the management announced that Mr. Bemis Pierce, formerly head coach at Carlisle, had been secured for the season's work. page one hundred seven lil If the credit for the particularly bright season were to be fixed on any one person it would fall on the team's coach, Bemis Pierce. By his character and actions he gained the love and respect not only of the team but of the entire undergraduate body. He had but one ambition and that was to place Kenyon at the top in Ohio football. He was the proudest man in Ohio after the game in which Kenyon defeated Western Reserve by the score of 4 to 0. Stoic that he was, he was led to exclaim, My boys played grandly. They are the best in the land. l am proud of them. This quotation aptly expresses the deep and sincere feelings that Kenyon's coach had for the members of the team and for their success. Not only did he turn out a championship team for Kenyon, but he made those who were fortunate enough to hear his speeches better Kenyon men. 111 As stated before, the season's prospects at the opening of college were not the brightest. With a new coach, seven old men for a nucleus around which to build a team, and with only two days' practice under Coach Pierce's direction, Kenyon went into the first game with the Columbus East High School Alumni and came out victorious by a score of 23-0. Otterbein was next met and defeated I8-0. The following week Ken- yon played her first Big Nine game of the season with Ohio Wesleyan. This game showed that Kenyon was to be a potent factor in the settling of the Ohio championship. Wesleyan was defeated 20-O. Case was the next team to learn of our prowess. For the first time in many years the Scientist team failed to cross our goal line, the score being 0-0. Reserve, fresh from her i8-0 victory over Ohio State, went into the Kenyon game with the idea of giving the Gambier boys a good trouncing. The Htrouncing however, was the other way and at the end of the game the score stood 4-O in Kenyon's favor. It would not be out of place at this point to mention the fact that Kenyon was the only team in the state to defeat Reserve. Wittenberg was easily defeated 63-5, but succeeded in Crossing KCny0n's virgin goal line. Cincinnati was next met. The page one hundred eishf 5 'ing winning of this gamebrought almost as much joy to Kenyon's Cincinnati Alumni as if it had been Uhio State which was defeated. Sixty-three points were rolled up by Kenyon in two halves of twenty-five and four- teen minutes, while Cincinnati failed to score. Wooster gave us a bad scare in the first half, chiefly because we were too confident, but Kenyon spirit told in the end and gave us the victory, I8-5. The following week, with a crippled team, Kenyon defeated Muskingum 40-0. Un Thanks- giving Day Ohio State was met and for the first and only time in the season of i908 Kenyon suffered the pangs of defeat, but only after five of her gallant warriors had been forced to the side lines by injuries. Score, i9-9. 4-ll Kenyon's team not only made a grand record as to scores, but proved itself to be the most popular of all the teams in Ohio by drawing record crowds in Cleveland, Cincinnati and Columbus. The team showed that it had championship qualities, the men fought like tigers, played scientific football, tackled low and hard and above all displayed that never-say-die spirit that has prevailed at Kenyon ever since intercollegiate football was introduced, eighteen years ago. The record made by the Kenyon team in the season of 1908 draws only praise from the football public, no matter what partisan feelings may be in their breasts. mafaavomwgovfafeia' .fr-1312.

' J. L. CUNNINGHAM. Captain W- J- BLAND- Manager' BASEBALL I-ICUGH it does not arouse the wild enthusiasm of football among the undergraduates, baseball nevertheless is accorded the united support of the student body. F ar more men actively participate in the great American game than in any other sport in college. This fact was conclusively proved this spring When, out of less than sixty eligible men, more than twenty-five candidates for the baseball team reported for practice. From the earliest spring days to Commencement Week the crack of the bat and the thug of the ball in the catcher's mit are familiar sounds on the campus at all hours of the day. 411 Any baseball article, being written before the season really commences, must be merely a prophecy on the final resultg and all fans know that he who attempts to be a baseball prophet is indeed a bold man. How- ever, Kenyon's prospects for a Winning team this year are very bright. For the first time in several years a regular baseball coach who will devote all his time to that branch of athletics has been secured. Mr. l... T. P. Cromley, '03, already so familiar to Kenyon Alumni as to need no intro- duction, has assumed charge of the squad. Though only four of last year's team are in college, the abundance of material gives assurance that every position will be well filled. With Tate at the helm and Kenyon spirit behind, we need no further assurance of a successful season. A page one fourteen 1 fl . 'X Tiff. VPN Jil 'F gif , 1: . A I V A .. 'fl .

L. CARDILLO' Captain C. D. RAREY, Manager BASKETBALL .ii-11 il.-1-11 HE basketball season of V909 was marked by earnest effort on the part of the team, backed by the loyal support of the under- graduates. The squad began practising early in October and worked faithfully until the end of the season, making a strong Hnishnby defeating Western Reserve 35 to I8 on March l3th. It is doubtful if a better team ever represented Kenyon in basketball. A fair proportion of the games were won and those lost were by a close margin, with the team working at a disadvantage on a foreign floor. The season was a decided success financially owing to the large attendance at the home games and it proved conclusively that basbetball will have the hearty backing of the college in the future. Q11 The prospects for next year's team are very encouraging. Only one man from this year's squad will be lost by graduation. The Freshman game brought out several star players and they, with the old men, should furnish a squad in l9l0-which is not likely to be excelled in the State. 1-ll The glaring need at present is a coach. Every representative college in the state has a basketball coach and it is impossible for our teams to go against a well-coached team and show the same amount of team work and knowledge of the game. A movement is now on foot to get a coach at Kenyon next year and it is to be hoped that such a plan will be adopted- With a coach and the material in view, Kenyon's chances for a cham- pionship team in 1910 are very bright. page one eighteen .. him iii? 3?

KINDER, Manager TRACK LTI-IOUGH ,handicapped by the lack of a coach, the track team which will represent Kenyon in l909 bids fair to be one of the best in years. Practically all of the members of last year's team are back and with them as a foundation the squad of this year should make an exceptional showing in the Big Six Meet at .Columbus in May. . QU In a college the size of Kenyon, where Freshmen are barred from taking part in intercollegiate athletics, the problem of turning out successful track and baseball teams from an available student body of seventy-five men becomes a hard one to solve. QI Furthermore it frequently happens that all the track ability is found in one class and when that class is graduated the next year's team mug be recruited from an entirely new set of men. QI Kenyon has in years past furnished athletes who have established records at the annual State Conference meets and the track team has always received the undivided support of the undergraduates. Thls year we hope to again assert ourselves on the cinder path and bring back to the Hill our share of points, medals and honors as the track teams of '02, '03, and '05 were wont to do. - page one twCI1fY'3w0 ggi' X X A. 3. r o fs., I t , , ,, - - , ,, t I' A TRACKQQQSEASON OF' 1908 V.

This meet was decided upon by . the' Assembly after receivingfrom Mr. Leo Wertheimer' the offer of a large silver trophy cup to be held for one year by each winning team. The college and the student body took hold ofthe' project-earnestly. Invitations were sent' to High Schools and Preparatory Schools throughout theiState and even in adjoining states. Every induce- ment is was offered to the various school teams Enter tamment was provided by the students and handsome gold silver and 'bronze medals with the college seal raised upon. them were given by'-the generous alumni for the vrcftorious contestants .T The result was that nine teams more than seventy live men 1n all were entered A- heavy ram 'themght before did considerable damage to the track but a bright hot sun enabled' the prellmi naries to be run off before noon. With, over half the events completed, a thunder storm came up. This did not last long however and the work of draining School - of Cleveland .won first place with -Central High School, of Cleveland, a close second.

Bentley W- J- Bland page one twenty-five TENNIS X ............. 5 HIS is the hrst Reveille for several years to contain an article on Tennis, but it is now litting that this Department of Athletics should receive as much space as any other, for with the granting of a K, tennis enters into a new era at Kenyon. The revised Constitution of the Assembly this winter contains a clause providing for the granting of a K above two crossed raclcets to the three men who constitute the tennis team each year. Tennis has always been a favorite. pastime on the I-lill during the Spring months, and with no other reward than the honor of representing Kenyon in a branch of athletics, a team has been turned out good enough to beat most colleges inthe state, and last year, when up against the crack Michigan players, we made a much 'better Hght than various Eastern colleges did against that team. ill Une drawback to tennis at Kenyon is the facft that the department has never been organized in the fall. Football has claimed the attention of the whole college to such an extent during this season that no other sport has been indulged in, but we can be loyal to our football team and still find time to make use on the tennis courts of the two months of good weather after college opens. Fall practice is a great help to keep a man in the best form for matches in the Spring. The prospects for a successful season in 1909 are very bright. Besides two men of last year's team, we have players who have shown up well in other colleges, and the schedule is being arranged to include colleges outside of the state. - ' page one twenty-Si!

Special Interests in the- form of intercollegiate athletics, debating societies, musical andf dramatic organizations and, lastly, civil and good government clubs, all prey upon the literary society and absorb the time and interests of the: undergraduate members. ' ill However, Philornathesian has done unusually well this year in the- face of these many difliculties. The work of the society has been well. done, the programs have been lively and interesting. The work of the program committee in the selection of subjects has been most commend- able, and lastly, but not least, we are glad to say that Philo has more than held her own against her great rival. She got more than her share of good Freshmen in the annual rushing with Nu Pi Kappa. The quality of these new members is well attested by the fact that Kenyon was repre- sented by a Philo Freshman on the debating team with Denison University. Q Regular meetings of the society are held every Wednesday from Qctober' to May and a large weekly attendance has proved false the notion that interest in literary work at Kenyon is dead or dying. xv.

This reunion was largely attended by graduate and undergraduate members, and the enthusiasm ran high indeed, many financial pledges for the adornment of the old Hall being the result. . 1-ll The regular weekly meetings were started soon after college opened, and thirty-six men are now regular members, with quite a waiting list. A great deal of the interest taken in literary lines is directly due to the unfailing efforts of the program committee which has made the programs alive with the choice of subjects vital to the undergraduates. ill The subjects of the intercollegiate debates have been the topics for debate, and this Wisdom on the part of the debate committee was shown by the fact that three of the four members of the college team in the debate with Denison University were from among our number. ill This year the members have well maintained the customary standard ofthe Society, and everything now points toward a prosperous and success- ful continuance next year.

Mather Kenyon-H' W, Wood I Adjudged in favor of Denison University page one fort? page one forty-one ga., Kenyion Dramatics ,-,--11-I-' ,iii--I RAMATICS occupy an almost unique place in Kenyon. ln a college for men where women characters in a play must neces- sarily be taken by men, great difficulties always arise in the selection of a suitable play. A man who can impersonate a woman, with any degree of dignity, is rarely to be found, hence the nature of the play chosen is almost of necessity farcical, and the women characters are not to be taken seriously. With this restriction placed upon the choice of plays, as well as the natural limitations to amateur talent, thesuccess of our college dramatics is surprising, since Kenyon has no regular course of dramatics in her curriculum., p b t t I ill One may attribute the interest taken in Kenyon dramaticsj to several reasons. Amateur theatricals are always interesting. There is a certain attractiveness in the work on the stage that appeals to almost everyone. The stage setting, the strange costumes, the make-up, the glare of the footlights, are all things that appeal to the non-professional, and the potent desire to act a character always makes the drudge of stage Work a pleasure to the amateur, instead of a bore. Q11 Aside from the natural glamour of the stage one must recognize the fact that college plays form an enjoyable and healthy diversion from the usual routine of Kenyon life. Gambier affords little amusement in the form of entertainments other than concerts and lectures, and the college play does much to relieve the dull monotony ol a town in which a pro- fessional play is never seen. r A ill Moreover, the college play places the students in closer touch with each other than almost any other activity. At the rehearsals, the members of the cast work together in perfect unity, and struggle and toil over their lines together. The success of one is the success of all, and surprising spirit is engendered by the steady work oi players at rehearsals held day after day, night alter night, often at late hours. The class plays that have been given in recent years have brought the players into a better under- standing of each other, into a closer intimacy and better harmony and have developed class spirit in a degree that has been aroused by no other inlluence. page one forty-iW0 Pull and powder Club Organized January 9, l904.!

Ill The play is an exceptionally clever and amusing one and particularly ll p S It well adapted for presentation by amateur talent. The rivate ecretary ' is a translation from a German farce, and contains a laugh in every line, in spite of the fact that it is built around that old and time-worn theme, mistaken identity. The plot is simple, clear and easily followed, and a number of surprising and extremely laughable climaxes follow each other in quick succession. The fun began when the gruff and quick tempered' old gentleman, ML Cattermole, mistook for his nephew the meek and effeminate Rev. Robert Spaulding, a curate of long enduring patience., The situation grew funnier and more complicated when the real nephew Douglas Cattermole, attempted to palm himself off as private secretary to the rich ML Marshlandf' When the real and pseudo secretaries- appeared simultaneously at Mr. lVlarshland's home, and embarassing complications developed, the situation was complete, and the farce rant riot. The Class of 1910 disclosed some unusually accomplished ac'tors,... and the play was carried off with a vim and spirit that assured for it SUCCCSS . page one forty-four' Nb- QU Thr-Q title role was played by Mr. Tunl-cs, and his interpretation of the much-abused and long suffering curate, the real private secretary, was a finished bit of character Work. D'you know ll' and lf you don't mind re-echoed for many days on the Hill. Mr. Bland, as the bluff and apoplectic Mr. Cattermole played an eccentric part in delightful style, at no point was the character overdrawn. Mr. Kinney did a highly creditable piece of Work as the tailor who longed to soar in loftier circles. Mr. Rood was Well cast as Miss Ashley, a spiritualistic spinster and got much fun out of his part, as did also Mr. Siegchrist and Mr. Wiseman, in the respective roles of Mr. Marshland and Harry Nlarshland. lVfr. Gayle, as the hot-blooded young Cattermole, made a handsome lover and was perfectly at home in his part. The rest of the cast, including Mr. Emerine, Mr. Scott, Mr. Cartmell, Mr. Martin, and Mr. Welch, was of unusual merit. The play was well staged and cleverly performed, and its success was due in large part Ito the Work of Mr. Luthy, coach and stage manager.

As Kenyon men we are proud of the powers intrusted to us by the Faculty and the Trustees, and their confidence we feel is not misplaced. The develop- ment of manly men, with noble qualities of loyalty, honesty and honor, is a natural result of self-government-a result never attained by any system of personal supervision or espionage by college authorities. QI The Kenyon Assembly is the common meeting ground of the student body. Composed of all matriculates, with full quota of necessary oflicers, laws are made by it, actions ratified, and deliberation taken on matters of interest to the college man in general. The Constitution, which has recently been revised to add new departments and remove obsolete fea- tures, now provides for Qudent self-government in every Way open to them, and also insures the growth of a healthful spirit of independence and responsibility. Moreover, the Assembly serves as the medium between Alumni and undergraduates, between Faculty and student body, and between the authority of Trustees and that vested in the students. Every member of the Assembly can recall with pleasure the heated discussions, the stirring enthusiasm for Kenyon's prowess and the final spirited Thrill of Assembly meetings.

' Each newstudent is required to sign a pledge -.soon after his registration that he will neither give nor receive help in any examination, and that, furthermore, he will report any violations of the pledge to the Honor Committee. There is no supervision onithe partof the Professors, and every man is on his honor 'to do no cheating. The system, in its operation at Kenyon, has always been successful not onlyin a practical way, but in the development of 'noble qualitiesgof honesty and straightforwardness. Kenyon men have .reason to be proud of the faa that in the nine years .since its adoption, 1-there have beengihut two or three violations of the honor pledge. V my , COMMITTEE J ames R.

The main duties of the committee are the maintenance of order and discipline in the dormi- tories, enforcement of the rule of the Trustees and Faculty forbidding the keeping or drinking of liquor on college grounds, the apportionment of all assessments on the deposit for general damage, and the reporting to the President upon janitor service in the dormitories. The Way in which all these duties are now being performed gives good guaranty that Kenyon will be as successful in this, her newest department of student self-govern- ment, as in her honor system and student management and control of all athletics.

After the regular program had been completed in the college chapel, the procession of students and faculty moved to Rosse Hall for the second part of the day's proceedings. These consisted in the conferring of the degree of Master of Arts upon Mr. Irving B. Dudley '82. Mr. Dudley is at present United States ambassador to Brazil l-le attained to this high station by the regular course of promotion from consul to attache and so on, till he deservedly reached the highest grade in the diplomatic service. Kenyon delights to honor all her sons, and these exercises marked a beautiful tribute to one who has reflected credit upon her. Page one seventy-nine 'im if '! Q. . I' V, lgrgu.

Outside the branches swayed aimlessly in the ' wind with a plaintive melody. Not a star was out. The Vvelsbach lights threw up a ghostly blue flame.

Firmly each one- of us grasped his fountain pen. The ink in mine, afterwards found was frozen with terror. We heard the heavy door of Ascension swing back. Calmly, soothingly, like Napoleon before Moscow, Buck rose to address us. ' s My hearties, he said, with tears quivering in his eyes, the hour is struck. The Freshmen are upon us. They vastly outnumber us. Re- sistance alas! -is useless. Let us be like that Roman Senate that sat quiet while the barbarians took Rome. Let us try tobluff the Freshmen. s I-low, my heart thrills as l recall that impassioned harangue! Like statues we sat while Buck poured forth his eloquent periods on the criminal woman. ln surged the Freshmen, like a white-capped sea, except that their caps were blue and it was their pajamas that were white. How Klu-Klum Klanish they looked. For a moment they stared at us. The music of that voice, telling of criminal woman had charms to still the savage beast indeed-but not the Freshmen. As they twisted their hands in our collars l heard Buck under his teeth: Curses! The bluff didn't workll' I struggled hard, downing seven of the invaders before a blow on the head sent me off to dreamland. just as I was getting well on the road, l heard the man next to me whisper to the leader of the Freshmen crew, Why didn't you come sooner?

From across the campus came the melody of menis voices, swinging together with all the energy and sincerity and spirit of youth and Kenyon. It was the Thrill As it was sung there in the Spring night our hearts warmed to the singers. Even the scene itself was full of sentiment. The white of the Prayer-cross was a gray shadow in the shimmer of the moon, and around its base clustered the dark forms of the singers, the tiny sparks of their pipes and cigarettes lighting and relighting in the intervals between the songs. Almost in front of us loomed up like a mighty castle in festive array the long pile of Qld Kenyon, whose every window gleamed with the yellow light against which were silhouetted the forms of other listeners. Across the path, l'lanna's twinkling windows gave evidence of life inside which we had for the moment forgotten. Above its roof reached the black arms of the trees on the Hill behind, through which the stars glit- tered out of their blue black setting. The songs themselves seemed to blend and harmonize with the moonlight and shadow, and with eyes closed we listened and dreamed. Old Kenyon in the Days To Be and Ninety-Nine, and Philander Chase came sweetly from across the Path and in our hearts we felt the love that never dies. Then again they sang it-the song of Kenyon. - The rain was dripping off 'our hats and triclding down our necks, and our mud-covered shoes squashed when they touched the wet boards of the east bleachers. None seemed to heed the wet. lnterest was centered upon a handful of mud-besmeared men crouching, running, sliding for yards, through slimy pools, and fighting, down after down, for yard upon yard, of muddy ground. Already the second half was almost over and no score had yet been recorded. States rooting was desultory and Kenyorfs interest was too intense even to yell. There were moments when almost the only sound was the dripping of the rain and the splash- ing of the players. l..et's give 'em a 'l lika'. X . It was loud and slow and clear, and one of the players, unrecognizable in his coat of mud, waved a hand at us. Another Hil-za and a Locomotive followed. State carried the ball well. Their weight was telling and down, down,. inevitably, surely, they advanced. Hika after Hil-za we gave-our voices were hoarse and breath came painfully. We felt as page one eighty-f0ill' 'rthough we were working with the team, and we pushed and grained and panted, as if in some way we could help to stay that terrible onslaught. Yard by yard, It-Cafe? fi'-Hd 11961618 tl1C11 Q mighty cheer came to us from across the field. State s rooters Went Wlld, and yell after yell, rejoicing and exultant, relieved the awful tension of the moment before, The team? came slowly baclc and lined up for the kick-off. WA Thrill, fellows. Every hat was off in a second, and from throats raw with cheering, '-rang out the song of love for the Mother for whom we fought, Kenyon. Ten o'clocl4 had just struck. Freshmen were moving like shadows baclc and forth across the campus, loaded down with fence-rails, logs, Window sashes, anything combustible, which they threw upon the fast growing pile in the middle of the campus. A joyful crowd stood near, watching and commenting and Sophomores in the commanding dignity of their station, gave orders with the voices of authority. The pile was a conglomerate array of wooden articles, boxes from l-larry's, Window sashes- fromlsienyon, boards of all descriptions, rafters, beams, and trees, surrnounted by a large barrel from Doolittleis. Here and there brooms protruded. Courageously climbing on precarious footholds the more daring of the builders pushed its summit nearer the slcy. The odor of coal oil was everywhere. The last log had been thrown on when a breathless runner dashed into the crowd. They're at the gatesll' he cried. lmmediately in the bowels of the structure a light appeared. Higher and higher it rose until the flames leapt up above the highest pinnacle. The whole campus was flooded with ruddy light and the fellows were forced to a greater distance. Cries of Everybody outl' brought from all quarters, those whose more serious pursuits of learning had kept them indoor. They were fantastically garbed in pajamas, bathrobes, any- thing in which they might appear before the members of the faculty without seeming immoded. The team was coming! The old bus rumbled and rattled down the 'road and across towards the crowd. Vvfe 'rushed for it and dragged forth one by one, the men Whose light on the diamond had brought another vicftory to the Hill. Then in the light of the .great fire of cele- bration With bared heads we san the Thrill of Spirit, the finest wel- , , g 'Come we could give to those who had honored Kenyon. A dove flew down the middle of the field, hesitating a moment Over The two teams where they fought, then, straight as an arrow it darted between the goal pods and, turning in a graceful circle, HCW fffalght back again, between the posts and up the held, filming OH across the side-line thirty-five yards from Kenyon's goal- Page One eighty-five 'damn-We 'Twas an omen! Kenyon's team, fear-free and persistent, doggedly plunged and brilliantly circled Reserve's mighty line of bone and muscle, until, twenty-five yards from the coveted goal, they rested for a moment, Presently, as the end and quarter dropped back for a place-kick, theres came a cry from Reserve, regular, unending, like the stroke of the black- smith's hammer, Block that kick! block that kick! block that kick! On Kenyon's side the silence was tense, painful in its reality, and expectant, breathlessly expectant. There was a rush, an indescribable sound of body meeting body. The ball flew back into the quarterbacks hands upraised to meet it, and just as its point touched the ground, there was the thump of a kicker's boot and the leather, its blurred shape spinning swiftly, shot up, up, and then curving downward, struck the crossbar dully and fell between the posts, a goal. Kenyon's team went wild, Ken-h yon's rooters were mad with joy. l-lats of every description filled the air- We hugged each other and danced crazily about until some one's hand almost knocked the breath from our bodies, when turning, we hugged him, too. ln the four minutes left, Reserve could not score and the whistle blew' with the ball on Kenyonis thirty-five yard line. Kenyon's team had followed the' dove. i Not one of the team walked to the gym. The perspiring, mole-skinw clad heroes found willing shoulders in abundance, and when they were put down at the gym door, none could tell whether we were all crying or laughing. As the last man entered, standing together on Reserves green campus, we sang, l'The Thrill of Spirit, laying at the feet of Kenyon, this, her newest victory. Fifty men were marching, arm in arm, down Kenyon's Middle Path, men of all ages, of all classes, but Kenyon men, every one. From the: opposite direction came as many more, whose voices, raised in swinging' harmony, gave added beauty to the June night. Near the chapel the: two bands met, and, after exchanging greetings, with hats off the men of both joined in the song of their Alma Mater, and as the stirring notes rang' out in the warm air, they told of everlasting loyalty to Kenyon, beloved by all her sons, honored by all who know her, and blessed by the God that made her. page one eighty-si! T I' 0 'll lb 1 e A Freshman Diary of Six Days. -l -l-11. Day the First Supper is over and I am feeling in the best of spirits. All during the meal, the fellows talked gaily, mentioning gonks and S. C. I.'s, the Star Chamber, and little finger, as though I were perfectly familiar with the terms. When I asked if the S. C. I. was a good fraternity, they .laughed boisterously, and said I should learn what it was in time. There are three Freshmen, including myself, at our table, and just now I heard one -of the Sophs fthere are five of themj say that it was about time for some- thing to be doing. Gambier is an awfully small place, and I'm not sure I like the fellows-they seem too important. I must quit for to-night for I must unpack and write a letter to Marguerite-if the Sophs do not inter- ,rupt. P. S.-We had to march to chapel this afternoon, singing a hymn all .the way. ' Day the Second To-night is the minstrel show. One of the fellows just came in and asked me why I was not blacked up. He said that I was on the prog- gram for a song. I never sang in my life, so what the dickens am I to -do? I hope to-morrow comes in a hurry. This morning after German Class a Sophomore told me to bend over. I didn't know what this meant, but he quickly showed me, and said it was one of the customs. Another 'custom here is in getting down on the knees, bowing over and saying: Boola! Boola! Cock-a-lung-oi. They never did these things in high -school, and I don't intend to stand it very long. This afternoon-Oh! Heavens! I-Iere it is eight o'clock and I should have been at the gymna- 'slum at seven-thirty. I must close. 0 P. S.-I found out what the gonk is to-day. It's something long -and hard with a handle to it--the handle is for the Sophs. - Day the Third .The minstrel show has left its impression on me and to-night I feel deleqted and lonesome. A fellow they call Spike was just 1n here and he said that to-morrow night at I0 :00 p. m., the Freshman Class will have 'Page one eighty-seven to leave college. l didn't know what he meant until he explained that we would have to go away to a hiding place, and there stay out of reach of prying Sophs, until the next day. That is the day of the grand rush.. Now isn't that nice? To think that we will have to be just like trarnps until day after to-morrow. I wonder why we must do such foolish things. This afternoon l took a little time from my studies and other duties, and took a walk up past Harcourt and Bexley. The Harcourt school opensa next Wednesday, and they say there is a swell bunch of girls there-but I don't suppose they would more than glance at a Freshman. As soon as supper was over to-night, the other Freshmen and myself' had to sit on the floor and row, using toothpicks for oars. The Sophs. said ia fellow by the name of Togo Dooman had hrst introduced this form of sport. Day the Fourth ' l am writing to-day's diary on the back of a check which l happened. to find in the pocket of these old clothes.

We all left college secretly at l0:00 'p. m. last night, and after about -a ten-mile tramp at last arrived at this unearthly place. Two Juniors just came in, and they say the 'Sophs haven't the faintest idea where we are. Say, but .l'm hungry. Only one more hour and. and then we Qart to get the cane. i t Day the Fifth l have just revived enough to peek into the looking-glass. 'I got pretty badly battered in the rush this afternoon. There is a cut over my right eye, one tooth is loose, and my knee hurts every time l bend it. But the best part of it is, We won the rush!! We left our hiding place in the country, about three o'clock this afternoon, and went cautiously to Bexley, the Theological School. At four o'clock Dr. Peirce brought us the cane to be carried in the rush, and after giving us a word of encouragement. said that the Sophs were ready. We then took up our march down the path, singing bravely until we got to the lines marked off between two of the buildings. just as we crossed the line the Sophs broke loose and we dropped on the cane. At the end of time we had two more hands on the cane than our opponents, and were therefore the victors. lshouldn't have written all this in this diary perhaps, but l don't think l will ever have the experience again and want to recall it when l get to be a Senior.

The professors are all nice too, but several are sharp in their speech. There is one that has a sandybeard and wears glasses that the fellows think real sarcastic, but l try to see his good points, and believe him sincere. My roommate and l are going over to Mt.

The NEW Kenyon LD Kenyon still stands on the beautiful Gambier Hill. Many Alumni who come back to their Alma Mater feel themselves again at home-at the home where they spent four years of College life. And to them this might well seem true. Kenyon, with its gray, time-worn walls, still remains in their minds a memory of pleasant recollect- ions. The Hill in the summer still presents a beautiful picture with its .fresh grass and noble green trees. Qld Kenyon, excepting for the addi- tion of a few buildings, is the same college of the times of the Alumni. Butthere are very few things which do not have a slow or quick change There is only one way to describe it. It is the New Kenyon. New Kenyon, although identical with Old Kenyon in the minds of the Alumni and in the spirits of the present students, is a transformation from the old. True, this has come slowly but it has come surely. Of course the changes in and the additions to the buildings can be seen and are apparent to allg but the greatest changes are those which are felt. Most of these may be ftoo small for consideration but a few of them are of great importance to the student body. ln a small college where there are but few students, these changes come about more quickly, and are more noticeable, than in the larger ones. And these changes are of vital importance to a college. If an institution remains stationary for a number of years, it then gradually begins to die. This is the nature of the American people. V Never satis- fied, they are always wanting something better. The change which is most noticeable to all is the new and remodeled buildings. Before Senator Hanna gave the money for the building of the new dormitory, which bears his name, the students were forced to occupy close quarters or separate houses. 'Years ago, the men even roomed in the bull's eyes and in the basement of Kenyon, and later were divided in body and spirit by being compelled to room in various old h0L1SCS- Now, the two dormitories, Kenyon and Hanna, comfortably quarter all students and would welcome more. Kenyon has been remodeled in the interior, all the wood-work being new and the style quitemodern, and now has the appearance of a new building within. Yet lt 15 the Same Old Kenyon in the minds of her sons. Rosse Hall, which was destroyed by fire, has been replaced by a similar structure and is now fully equipped Wlthin for a modern gymnasium and assembly hall. A fire-Pfoofannex has been added to Hubbard Hall in which all the volumes of the library, Page one ninety-three except the reference books, are stacked for safety. The recently returned. chapel chimes musically inform the student in the classes how much of the hour still remains, and ring out the hour and quarter hours to all within their sound. The old college bell, which has called the students to reci-- tations for many a year, often reluctantly on their part, and has vigorously' proclaimed Kenyon's victories on the athletic field, has been recast and continues its duty in a clearer and sweeter tone. iII Kenyon's Faculty in the past decade has been increased by five new instructors, making a total of fifteen, and now to each instructor there is an. average of probably fewer students than in any other college in the state. Thus the professors may learn to know the men under them in a more personal way, and almost individual instruction may be secured. Two- entirely new courses, Biology and Economics, are now open for study. A special instructor in the Romance languages has been obtained and an. assistant professor in the English and Chemistry courses has been added. This enumerates the excellent ability of the Faculty in instructiong but over and above that is a more important point-Kenyon's Faculty is. for the college. It takes a personal interest in all affairs of the college and aids the student body in all their undertakings. The Faculty shows its. college spirit at the athletic contestants by its presence on the home fieldg and even on the foreign field there is scarcely a game that is not attended by one or more of its number. At the celebration of the athletic victories, the Profs stir the spirits of the men by appropriate speeches with fitting' praise and advice. At times the Professors even cloff their caps and gown. and laying aside their class-room dignity show the college men how they can play ball or enter into other sports. So, it may be repeated With. emphasis, Kenyon's Faculty is for the college. 'II The moral tone of the college has improved noticeably in the past decade. The Faculty of to-day is a body of superior men. The student. body of to-day are freer from bad habits and closer students than they have been previously. No one whose morals are not satisfactory to the Faculty IS now admittedg and at the semi-yearly examinations, each class is allowed to take the tests Without a professor present-a practice that was unheard-. of ten or twelve years ago. When such men as Senator Hanna, Andrew Carnegie, Governor l-lerrick, Colonel ,Iohn McCook and Governor' Harmon take an interest in and attend the college celebration days, Kenyon certainly has realized advancement of which all should be proud.. ill ln the past season of football Kenyon has been noticeably successful.. Who could imagine a college of one hundred men producing a team that could win from a college of ten times its size? and continuing in the same- course until Fate checkmated them? No college of its size is known so wellg and it IS all on account ofithis one fact: Kenyon's students are men. They are men of the finest calibre and like the old pioneers of this very college-brave, loyal and true. The one important factor in this athletic' page one ninety-four. record besides the men is again the instructor. ln the past year Kenyon has had a coach that excels any yet on Kenyon's groundsg without him Kenyon's football record would have been a failure. And in the next year and for years to come the hope is that he will have the material .to mold for Kenyon ideal teams. Fate apparently stopped Kenyon in her victorious course this year but the next year Bemis Pierce will arrange to have the purple turkey strut triumphantly for Kenyon. 0. S. U. may mock at the so-colledll Kenyon spirit and laugh when the cheer-leader calls for Another 'l-l1ka', fellows, I-lip, Hip, --, But Without this Kenyon spirit she would be a failure and would be lost in oblivion. In ,all other branches of athletics Kenyon has a team and is ready to compete with all rivals and back her men to the limit. The Kenyon men are seen as a whole at the games imbuing the team with the winning spirit. When a new man tries out in athletics, he does it for Kenyon and not for personal gloryg and yet does not his personality win in that the names of the victors .are proclaimed far and wide? 1lIKenyon's reputation as a small college has grown to immense propor- tions in the last year. Men in the fourth year of High School work with col- lege life in view read of Plucky little Kenyon's wonderful success and to Kenyon they will surely come. A larger Freshman class in the next -college year than for many years previous will enter the doors of the Ken- yon which is at once old and newg old because she could not grow away from her traditions if she would and would not if she couldg new because she is abreast of the times and a leader in promoting all that is best in college and undergraduate life. 1su n 1 I R I S H S O N G M father and m mother live awa across the sea Y y Y ,, r But their hearts are warm beside me, though its far and far they be.

And yet, metlminks, I love thee-for Vvhen drowsily I lmear Buck tell Of labor's prolJIem's fawful lnorej Your clang sounds freedom! Dear old Bell. page o ty The caries. B611 - u-u-ni-1.-I lull, lTl'l a half conscious start we roll over and in a sort of daze realize that we are being disturbed. With an effort we tr to throw off this troublesome something and believe ,that WZ havesucceeded, when suddenly we find ourselves wide awake and inwardly cursing the College Bell. ll At nine-thirty comes the unlucky Freshman with the mail- Ah! the very letterg you're all right, Freshmanlll and opening the letter, we are soon deeply plunged in its contents. What care we for classes and other troubles now! No thoughts of S. C. l.'s or conditions will-Clang! Clang! Clang! sounds the College Bell and with wistful glances we lay our letters aside and hurry to the horrors of the French room, where the regular torturing agonies again await us. ln meelcness, we bravely struggle through the lesson and with impatience await what will now be the wel- come sound of the old bell. Thus from day to day the College Bell tolls out its various messages. 'll One Saturday, the bell rang as usual but this time there were no mur- murings of discontent. Under the influence of some strange power, every- one seemed to feel that nothing should be missed upon that day. What was the cause of this strange obedience? Why all this ginger ? Was it not because we realized that the College Bell had something in store for us? Tidings which would either make our hearts leap with joy or sicken with regret, were held secretly imprisoned in its iron sides 3 for was not Kenyon already in Cleveland awaiting the hour when she could strike a blow at Reserve? . ill Throughout the whole morning, students and professors went about seemingly as usual but nevertheless in an inward state of excitement. In Some indescribable manner, the sound of the bell tolling out its usual Summons to classes sent chills to the hearts of all. With early afternoon came a sort of calm and a feeling of confidence 3 and snatches of Kenyon 30I'1gS could be heard from the bull's eyesll with an occasional hiker , the spirit of which had won many a former game. As the afternoon drew to a close, the feeling of fear again stole in and longing glances were cast toward the tower of Qld Kenyon. Four o'clocl4 came and went but brought no messages, and questionings arose upon all sides. fl .F ar out into the country we walkedg past the station and along the quiet road until we reached the mill. Here, seated upon the bridge, we llstened with bated breath. The air was so still that the sound of the tiny page One ninety-seven stream falling into the mill-race sounded like a mighty cataract, and the river Howing over its stormy bed like a rushing torrent. Suddenly we sprang to our feet, for upon the wind was borne to us the sound of a far- off bell. But this was not for us. It was but the clear tones of a distant church bell carried down the valley by the wind. Slowly and silently we retraced our way with lagging steps. What was wrong? What ill luck had beset Kenyon to lose for her this all- important game? No speeches,' bonfire or singing, now! If only the old bell would-Clang! Clang! Clangl Clearly the tones of the good- old bell were brought to us strengthened by the -echoes from the hills. With full hearts, we hastened back to the Hill to receive the joyful news of victory and to make ready for the coming celebration. It is this daily routine and its more agreeable duties of announcing vic- tories and other college honors which give the College Bell a place in the hearts of all Kenyon men. It is in fact the Guardian Angel-of Kenyong reminding us of our duties as college men and pealing out to us the triumphs of our Alma Mater. 1 -1-11 u COLLEGE HONORS College Devil,'l lelena,' Montanag Special.

Well, the crowd that was watching, West Wfillg play 'West Division in the indoor baseball championships in March disappeared just the same way-now you see 'em, now you don't-when a villager, poking his head through the doors, shouted Bexley's on tire! i 4 QI Really it was too bad to break up a good game that way. Land knows there is precious little doing on most Saturday nights in Gambier, so that what little excitement we have needs to be husbanded and spread out thin. Several Saturday nights in March and April l've wished Bex- ley had got on hre then instead ofburning on one of the nights when there was already enough doing. But a fellow shouldnt kick. It was nice of it to burn any old time, even it it did collide with a counter attracftion. all The game had run along four innings. Mason was leading his Gero- nimos of the West Division against Bland's West Wing Crazy Snakes. Bugs was calling balls and strikes and the gallery was full of fair ones from the neighboring seminary. Thergame had been long in starting, due to the social charms of Freshman Reilly dining late with the Faculty. The full gallery or a part of it was fussing Cassil, for he could not keep his eyes oft of it long enough to catch the ball on first. Something like eleven or twelve windows knocked out by the herce batting practice before the gameg score about even-this was the lay ot the land when the hre- man's yell broke up the game. A Q Out into the dark! A drizzling rain, a murky night, and fog lying close to the ground in front of the chapel and so heavy it was easy to lrnagine it was smoke and see Bexley in pink embers and the floors and ceilings chasing each other down to the ground. The air was warm. l trred to shed my overcoat somewhere, but it was too late. l should have dt0pped it in the gym with fagidious Ed Gorsuch who had to change his baseball clothes to go to a hre at night-oh dear mel W0HdCf lf he tied his necktie just right without a mirror? The Middle Path was bob- bins with black forms. 'Who wants to carry an overcoat to a fire? But HS no use to try to leave it in Bill Hunters-Bill's locked.. Stoyle.1s locked, Shaw's locked. F or the first time in years every store in Qambier IS closed! So on we go, lugging the heavy old thing up the little rise Page one ninetyminc before Harcourt. Pretty soon we notice that where Bexley should by rights be merrily blazing, there is naught but darkness, big black darkness. No smoke tinges the air. Nobody seems to be hurrying but us. Pretty soon we too slow down. Huh, guess it ain't much of a fire. Wish I hadn't run. Q Bexley is as dark as night except on the third floor, one window, where some one is passing with a lighted match. Around the steps before the door stands the biggest crowd that has congregated about Bexley since its dedication, or its last fire. Lots of shapes and even heads but no features-too dark. for that. Up On the run COHICS the fire Wagon. The gallant firemen had meandered along with it from its mausoleum, choosing to arrive on the run with loud halloo! The intrepid lads! With what fearlessness they stare at one another, gnashing their teeth because the fire burns no more. Q Le theatre de guerre was a small room, third HOO1'fI'Ol'lt, a hall bed-room, the casus belli a frenzied gas light. The room was pretty well crowded. Half of the village police force was feeling the walls and from their heat declaring the fire to have run away to hide between the partitions. A quarter of the force was hacking a hole through the ceiling from the dirty attic. The remaining quarter of the force brandished a hose-nozzle with the warning ull the young men don't vamoose they will get their nice suits spoiled, occasionally injecting it into the wall for the fun of seeing the plastery water ooze out of the wall paper near the ceiling. 'Twas a stirring sight, these valiant burghers risking life and limb in pursuit of fire between the partitions. Pretty soon the ax introduced itself through the ceiling and through the hole the smoking walls were further caved with cooling streams. qi The big bright red extinguisher on wheels presented rather an odd appearance in the flickering light, in this aerial den of Greek and Latin authors. It was quite placidly enjoying itself. The poor thing later was nearly abandoned. But such is life. Coming romping to the fire, drawn by a score, it limped back home with the aid only of thoughtful Dr. Walton. QI The inmates of the scorched edifice were little in evidence. For a time it was feared that the many missing ones had been stunned by jump- ing from the third floor, but later it was ascertained that they had all gone to Columbus on the 4:50 for a little convivial party. The two left had been broke and therefore unable to go. One of the two having gone to bed early to forget his misfortune, was now parading the halls in pretty pajamas.. The other for the same reason having travelled to Harcourt was running to and fro in a lovely plaited white shirt, declaring the hre to be the work of incendiaries aimed at his life because he had not paid his laundry bill. And here is Fred Dial, his tongue hanging out and himself sick three days after the fire, from pulling the extinguisher--pumpetyf Pump-up the stairs. X page two hundred QI Oh!

THE PRAYER CROSS V As I glanced from my room on a summer night 5 At the campus shrouded in pale moonlight, Methought that l saw the figure and face - Of the good old Bishop, Philander Chase. He stood as a sentinel, stern and grim, Guarding old Kenyon and those within, And honest pride made his eyes beam bright Till they shone like stars through the quiet night. With his arms outstretched in the still night air He bowed his head as in silent prayer, That the grace of God would ever fulfill His hopes for the college on the Hill. And the moon glided out from the amber haze Cf the Heecy clouds, and revealed to my gaze The form of the cross which marks the place Where I saw the spirit of Philander Chase. g . .

I5, I9-. D e a r M o t h e r : Well, I am here at last, but I do not know how long I will stay. It is certainly different from what I expedted. I thought, you know, that as soon as I got here I would start studying, at least out of some of the books I brought along if we did not go to classes, and I am sure you will be sur- prised when l say that it is now midnight and I have not opened a book since I closed the copy of The Descent of Man you gave me to read on the train. Indeed this is the first chance I have had to write to you, though I have wanted to many times. I hope you got the card I mailed at Orrville all right. You will wonder what I have been doing with myself all the timeg-indeed it has not been what I have done to myself but what others have done to me, and oh! it makes me homesick to think about it. I used to think you were harsh with me at times, but now I long for any word at all from you. ' I will begin telling my experiences from the time the train pulled into the station. As I climbed down the steps I noticed a pretty little building for the depot without another house in sight and I thought what a quiet country place this will be for study. While I was hesitating on the platform I saw a young fellow without a hat or coat and his sleeves rolled up coming towards me, and I thought he must be one of those men you told me to be careful of around stations, who would offer to carry my satchel and then expect a nickel for it. So I hurried on hoping to escape him, but he came up and grabbed my arm and said Stop there a minute, Freshman. I put my hand on my purse to make sure that he would not get any of my money, and was going to politely ask him to let me go, when he said in a cross voice, What's your name? I was going to tell him it was none of his business, but I thought in time of your advice to be kind to strangers so I said Chauncey Collister Crowninshieldf' He let out a yell and I looked around for help but just then another fellow dressed the same way came up and said What's that you've got there? The other one answered The ---est greenest thing I've seen yet. Then he turned to me and said in a moreikindly tone, Look here, Freshman, you have a lot to learn, whenever anyone asks your name you want t0 page two hundred six stty Freshman Crowninshield, Sir, and if they ask you how to spell it, give a 'little' before and a slr after each letterg now let's hear you do it.

UP the l lill, you might as well begin your duties by carrying this suitcase up for me. l said Pardon me but l think you have made a mistake, l came here to study in Ken: yon College, not to be an errand boy. Then you should have heard them laugh. The biggest one still held out his suit case to me and l thought it would be best to take it. We went by a narrow path through a hedge and then l saw what they meant by the Hill The path led up through a wood and it seemed to have no top. The suitcase and my satchel seemed heavier and heavier as we went up, and it was much worse than carrying water up from the spring at home. At the top we ,saw several large buildings and green grass in between. The other boys took me into a room full of fellows and said: Now intro- duce yourself all around. l had to do it to each one as l had down at the station spelling it out so much that l got mixed up in my own name. Then one said: Now get on that window seat with the rest of those infinitesimal micronismsf' l had no idea what he meant and looked around for some animal, but they pushed me up beside some other young fellows who looked as scared as l felt. Then one of the Sophomores, as l had heard them called, said Now sing the National Anthem, Fresh- man Crown-on-the-shield.l'i l thought immediately that there was at least some patriotism about the place if in other respects it seemed a nest of rowdies so l raised my head and proudly started in the Star Spangled Bannerl' aswe sang it on the last Fourth of July picnic. lmmediately there was a shout of laughter and they said: The rest of you Freshmen teach him the anthem and do it quickf' The nearei boy on the window seat to me whispered it in my ear,-it was to the tune of one of the hymns we sang in church, but the words were awful, too bad for me to repeat here, the first line had that word in it that the minister says in awed tones when he talked of the punishment of sinners. ' u just this way it has been going on all day and l could stay up until morning telling you of the terrible experiences l have had,'but they were all on the order of this-When we went to chapel this evening all the Freshmen had to form in line and lockstep backwards all the way, Just: like we saw the convicts do when we went over to the prison last winter.

Page two hundred seven g . ,Sunday Night, Dear Father: s I .somvasy things have happened since my last letter that I can only 'say a little about ia few of them. But first l will have to say that I dorlft see 'howl can stay here much longer. It seems that 'l have been here months, and today alone seems a full week. V We went to Church -this morning, but since dinner l have been sitting up here in my room feeling so blue I could not take any interest in reading or studying or anything. Please, please, can'tyou let me come home and 'go to work, and AI will 'never leave ,home again? s D . To begin where lleft off in my other jletter: Thursday morning some- body saidito me, l suppose you are going to the Minstrel Show tonightf' I said, No, l don't think l shall. Motherwhas always told me they have a degrading influence and lihave never been to one. He replied: nl think, you will be at this one all right, it would be a shame for you to miss Qit,'F and laughed. And what do you think it was,-they blackened all ,the faces of the Freshmen with burnt cork, and made them get out on the stage in the big gymnasium and do stunts as they called them. .Someone told me to give my High School oration, and l started out: . Abraham Lincoln was a great man. l-le was born in ISO9, andfn but thatwas as far as l could get. There wasa crowd of Sophomores down on the floor in front of the stage and they began yelling nput him oiltll, ,ulynch him, and 'l did not know what was going to happen when they ,shoved me over with my face to the wall and told me to stay there. When we were all done they marched us out of the building and then told us to run. We did not lose any time, scattering in all directions and l was nearly exhausted when I got back to my room. V There was one time though, Saturday afternoon, when we met the ,Sophomores fair and square, in what they call the Cane Rush. The Freshman Class, aidedlby the juniors, had held several meetings and been told the rules and given suggestions. At four o'clock in the afternoon the classtformed ,up at Bexley and marched down the path with a large cane in the middle. Vile met the Sophs at a place on the campus and they ,endeavored to get the cane away from us or at least get more hands on It than we had at the end of ten minutes. Of course we were soonall flown in a struggling heap and it was the most fun l have had here yet, push- lllg and pulling in that mass of arms and legs. We won by eleven hands, and we thought the hazing was all over with, but even the Juniors who had befriended us told us we had better run to our rooms and keep quiet. Thursday and Friday we' began going to classes, but about all we did was. to sign our names to some kind of a paper. l did not know what the idea was, but every one else in the rooms seemed to be putting down hls name so l wrote mine, It must have been a dozen different times. page two hundred eight Perhaps thelgrofessor only wanted to get a list of our names so he c ld glqnow who was in the class. ou Take good care of yourselves there at home and remember that l w'll leave this ,place and join you if you will only let me.

Q I only have alittle time now for a letter, but l must say one thing inthe hope it will further persuade you to let me come home. It seems that :some of the Professors too are trying to make things unpleasant for me as ,well as those horrible Sophs. Monday morning at eight o'clock right after, Chapel, l ,Went to my first real recitation. ll had spent over ,three hours in preparing it, even going against all my early training and study- 'ing on Sunday, so l felt that I woulduamake 'a very goodstart. l followed .another Freshman whom l knew was taking the same study, and after climbing innumerable steps we hnally landed in a small room bare except :for a row of chairs and a table, on the third floor of South Ascension. We went in and sat down and the fellow, next-me said, You, want to be 'careful that 'Titel don't get you this morning. Before I could ask him what he meant, the Professor called out my name and asked me one of the simple beginning questions, which l' had perfectly known the night before but in the strange surroundings with all the older fellows looking at 'me and smiling, l forgot everything l knew and gave a slightly wrong answer.

I started to protest but he replied, You will have to see the Treasurer about it, so I got up and walked out accompanied by the laughter of my classmates and a peculiar smile from the Professor. I sought out the door marked Treasurer's Office, only to find it locked and was informed that it would not be open till Z o'clock.

I told him there must be some mistake as I. had never been in the office before.

It certainly is a beautiful place, and I am beginning by degrees to see a little kindly spirit in the treatment of the Sophs.

Dear Sister Anne: I We had our first Assembly Meeting last night, and this certainly is the place for college spirit. There was a sign on the bulletin board out on the campus yesterday morning which read: Assembly Meeting Philo I-Iall, 7:15 tonight. Everybody out, but I did not expect to go as lsupposed it was only for Upper-Classmen. About seven o'clock, though, a Senior came to my room and said, Come on over to Assembly. Well, we went up on the second floor of Middle Ascension, and there in a long room, all except two or three out of the whole college were sitting around smoking and talking with their chairs tilted back against the wall.

Then our splendid big lndian coach was called on and though naturally somewhat embarrassed for the first time among so many fellows, his talk went right to our hearts and aroused great enthusiasm. Then the cap- tain added his word for the team to stick together. After each speaker was through he got a hearty What's the matter with--.

After such a show of spirit, I am more convinced than ever that we are just one big family here, almost cut off from the rest of the world, and bound together by 'lthe love of Kenyon, our Mother, as the Thrill ends up.

When we beheld them on Matriculation and Commencement Days, proudly Wearing their brightly colored hoods, it seemed as if none had been. slighted, for, if not the hood, the key of Phi Beta Kappa flashed from their watch chains. Accordingly, early in the fall, it was decided by a. unanimous vote of the assembly to introduce a far Eastern idea and estab- lish a hall of fame here on the Hill, to which the names of none save. of those who could satisfy an examining committee of their eminent fitness for so exalted a position should be admitted. We are glad to announce that the plan met with great success from the startg several members have been admitted and the committee is still busy passing on other claims. V c QI ln order to give the members . of the assembly some idea of the Work done by the examining committee, the proceedings of the first meeting, are here given in detail: The first one to present himself for admission wandered into the exam- 1n1ng room and with a shy glance around at the Committee dropped into the chair reserved for applicants.

The Three Sisters, kind and cruel reserve that task for their own nimble and experienced fmgersi Of so much at any rate I may be certain and speak with some assurance: the whys I leave to others. Of another thing, however, l speak with the rashness of youth. ln the mischievous pranks set agoing by the motive of our nobler ambitions we assert a higher destiny and tangle up that thread at times. It is a bit of rebellion on our part that shakes the foundations of the universe. Rather stupendous enterprise that, but .lf 'like to believe it true. It is one of my pet theories-a working hypothesis for adolescent chivalry. There's an element of humor about it, too, and a bit of adventurous daring. For we are all, more or less, involved in an adventure and who is to win the greatest game and play the boldest part is one of the happy conjectures of the present. I am not here to solve the problem at all or to play the part of a seer and foretell the panorama of the future, but I am' now concerned with a certain elementuof adventure that must come first. r g , 1-ll ln the olden days a man had to decide whetheror not he had received a call. This experience was peculiar to the youth seeking the ministry. When we hear it today, we smile and change the subjecftq Not that we would deny the reality of the experience at all but associationiof certain ideas has made the figure .appear 1 grotesque. 'Neverthelessy the fast remains. l' find a little book by the Bishop of the Philippines entitled Adventure for God, and lnote therein that ,the first requisite for adven- ture, be it spiritual or material, .is Vision! 0 Vision !' -The very .thing we need and not so unlike a call after And now llind that It am tumrng preacher, which is not at all unlikely, either, and the words of a certain good Kenyon song suggest a theme: Kenyon, life's highway ls thy shaded middle path, No more a by-way, But a road which hath t All we dream of glory ' ,Towering as its far off goal, Told in ancient story, ' Longed-for in our soul. N80 two fifteen 111 There's the spirit of the Middle Path voiced in the singing of a song. Kenyon, Bexley-a college at one end and a theological seminary at the other! Not much room you say for Vision? All the room in the world! You remember that vista between Hubbard and Ascension that greets your eyes with a new picture every time you pass it? Theres a dream of glory unequalled! l remember a certain Kenyon Freshman who saw it for the first time with eyes ablaze and heart aflame one day in the golden dusty month of September. Other Freshmen saw it too, and l noticed that wayfaring pilgrims on the journey to the Celestial City paused here and looked far out over the peaceful rolling valley to the distant horizon. The world could never be so small to him who had that vision! At all seasons of the year, at all hours of day or night, in weather good' and bad, generations of undergraduates and alumni of all ages remembered this as The Valley of Decision. - , 1-ll Let me tell you one story of the Path. It is the Adventure of the Three Words. Once upon a time, and perhaps even today, there was a great ogre whose name was Theology. Fearful tales of his cruelty and greed were whispered far and wide. I-le was pictured as a man of' mighty strength who demanded submission of all pilgrims and enforced his demands by the club which he carried with him. And his 'Castle was at one end of the Path and therein, so it was reported, he had impris- oned the beautiful maiden whose name was Religion. But so subtle and penetrating was the spell of this one sweet life that even the giant found himself held under its sway and all his power would have been gone had he not waved his club aloft and threatened his subiedts into sub- mission. Sometimes a young knight from the other end of the path, whose name was Freedom, would sally forth accoutred in bright new armor, flashing his progress in brilliant refledtion. Fearless and bold he was and bent on a gallant quest. But ere he had drawn his sword against the giant of the Castle, the magic spell of the maiden held him, and after a conventional parley with the giant, he returned sadly to his castle at the other end of the path. And so it was-and is--to certain pilgrims by the road. The Castle is there, the Giant and even the Prisoner. It is a scene from a dream-play. It was granted me to. see another scene. Some- where, sometime, along .this Middle Path, the giant sauntered forth and the maiden walked beside him. And the knight passed by, gazing in wonder at the strange pair. The mysterious spell of the maiden's sweet pure life came upon him and he loved her. And he spoke to the giant as a youth speaks to an elder: i I ask the hand of your daughter. l ill This he said boldly and the giant smiled as he replied: 'll He who would win her must choose that which is hard rather than easy, and that which is noble rather than base, and Love must be his only weapon. page two sixteen t Elrtitziihisllirgght disencumbered himself of armor and sword and stepped dj What is the task, my father? ' And the giant smiled and blessed him and the youth departed on his mission and after many days returned, tattered and weary and worn Bur he carried a cup of cold water and an offering of flowers and his face was like lightning! Ill Somewhere, sometime, along this Middle Path, the Theology of the Seminary and the Freedom of the College found each other, and the sweet reasonableness of Religion made its appeal to the heart of the collegian. ' 1-ll It is a gray day and the wind, with moaning and sighing, rushes through .the leafiess trees. Behind and above the trees ofthe distant forest one dash of brilliant whiteness casts its shimmering beauty, and loses itself in the gloominess of the clouds above it. On such a day I Hnd myself at one with the elements. Whirling. along, companion to the dead leaves at my feet and tuning my song to the choir of the winds, I fail to see the iharbinger of brightness before my eyes. Not until Three Vvords have had their play with me does this Hash of radiance become visible. l am in the 'midst of the college life of today and the reverence and authority of 'past years finds itself alongside of intenser physicaliand intellectual occu- pations. I find myself putting out to sea in an open boat and drifting away from the well known shore of past security. l find' the vision of my teens giving place to new forms and fancies. But l am none the less an idealist and the freedom of the college turns me boast to old associations. Again, l hear the still small voice and again l seek to make response. The vision of the Man of Macedonia .comes before' me and thegreat impulse to heed f'lumanity's call leads me to the door of the Church. I am not treadin on unfamiliar round here for some of the dearest associations 3 g 2 . .. , ,of life are preserved within this hallowed place. S enter, and hacked by the spirit of twenty centuries of Christiannexperience, of trials, mistakes and successes, I know that here the ideal is being realizedg here, indeed, the Wateryof Life is offered to men in sincerity and truthg and l pledge myself' anew as Defender of the Faith. Faith there must be and Works, too, or l come under condemnation of the heresy of Cain.

The change is not as startling as it seems to- the passerby on the path, although at the very beginning of this new career the voice of the professor of Theology speaks an admonition: ll! Young gentlemen, l want to tell you first of all, that a theological semi- nary is essentially a de-spiritualizing place. You come here to analyze, the most intimate associations of your spiritual life. It is a hard cruel. process, as cold and brutal as would be the analysis of the love you hold for those dearest to you. And yet it is necessary and inevitable, if you are to take up your work in the world with quickened sympathies and broadened vision. On the other hand, you are laying for yourself an. intellectual foundation and on that you are to build the spiritual structure. You must be the architect and strike the balance. The Church offers- you the inspiration and guidance of the Christian consciousness. To- the task, then, and l wish you Godspeed!!! l accept the challenge with boldness and plunge into the conflict which promises such unknown con-- sequences to my soul. l hear the chimes resound through the halls and pause before the chapel door and read the inscription above it-lntroibof ad altare Dei. It is the call to worship. Here it is that the architect, of the soul may plan his stately mansions and then go forth to build. Then, in formidable array, there greet me, Hebrew, Greek, Theology, History, in daily routine. Here a little and there a little, and all the while- l am living in the great world beyond and longing for the time when I shall. take my place as one of the workers. All the time the progress continues. and analysis of spiritual processes brings its own pain and reward-pain. in the responsibility of disillusionment and doubt, reward in the firmer grasp of essentials, the maturing love of the work chosen. l go to Bexley !f The layman comes forth the priest! But a priest after the order of Mel-a chisidec, not forgetful of the heritage of the past, or of the freedom of the Reformation's spirit but open to the best influences of the present, ready' to adapt' them to its legitimate demands. l enter into the joy of the free-' dom of service.

CF rom the junior point of viewj Being an addendum to the Hall of Fame by a minority of the Reveille Board. Some of the editors disagreeing with the above list asked per- mission to make up another, comprising other personages and expressing other sentiments concerning some of those notables already placed in the Hall of Fame. Feeling sure that too much space could not be given in this humble publication to these great men, the board gave its consent. It is worthy of note that one of the editors in this second list was of a peculiarly imaginative and poetic turn of mind. No matter what his subject, we find him continually bursting into song, sometimes when the reader would least expecit it. Barber, Paul Brown: Curst is the wretch, enslaved to such a vice V Who ventures life and soul upon the dice. Paul says that never before in his college career has he been so pressed for time. Athletics, debating, studies, presidential duties, and a fond peru- sal of the precepts of the Honorable Peter Sterling have so occupied his time that his sunny face has become a rarity and a fond memory of bygone days. ' Brigman,l...Ruevell: . His brow was like a polished pumice Qonef' After a career full of usefulness to Kenyon, Bug has lately become a business man. l-le also debates, presides and hits the line with equal suc- cess, but when it comes to telling a joke-oh, my! Burris, of Danville : Every man has his devilish moments. fThe editors feel that no further comment is necessaryj C o ol i d g e : All the World loves a lover. V ' Van is going to teach next year--l-le can teach athletics, English, Latm and Greek equally well-fat this point some rude person interrupted to mquire How well is that? j Co tt : lt implies leisure. p Carr: t H Hrlqhere is in this locality one very pecullar blfd- They say there are more of the same species to be found in Chicago! Page two twenty-three C u r e t o n : Humor, wit, jest and joke Are all too swift-for an English bloke. C u n n i n g h a m : Often burns the midnight oil. The Honorable Peter Sterling - K i t e : Vos you ever in Zinzinnati? G ' F e r r a ll : Where did you learn to laugh? Surely it was not in New Haven, nor even, Pat, in native Ireland. I have it, you tried to mimic F at in German and were called on in the midst of your laugh. S o u t h W o r t h : George plays football, edits the Collegian, and puts up the best game of chess -in college-but fussing is not his forte. B e n tl e y : The brain may devise laws for the blood But a hot temper leaps o'er a cold decree. C a r cl i l l o : Until I truly loved, I was alone. H a r cl y : He has a face like a benedictionf' R o o d : A dew drop of celestial melody. W i s e m a n : Wise men talk because they have something to say, Others because they would like to say something. Sim p so n : Those curious locks, so aptly twined, Whose every hair a soul doth bind. R u s s e ll : What a spendthrift he is of his tongue. C u r t i s : What I most value next to eternity is time. M a r v i n : Tongue is but three inches long Yet it can kill a man six feet high. T h e o b a 1'd : The hairs of thy head are all numbered. R a r e y : A man may smile and smile and be a villain. C o o k , D.: I want to be tough, I want to smoke and chew ust like other fellows do. L a w r e n c e : A thing of beauty is a joy forever.
