His boyhood was spent in Peabody, and after graduating from the Peabody I-Iigh School, he went to Andover Academy, where he was a member of the class of 1879. Graduating from Brown University with the degree of Bachelor of Arts in 1883, Dr. Simonds at once took up teaching, and for two years was instructor in the Providence, Rhode Island, .lligh School. At the end of this time he went abroad for further preparation for his life work, studying for three years at the Universities of Berlin and Strassburg. In 1888 the latter institution conferred upon him the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. For the next year he was instructor in German at Cornell University, from which institution he came to Knox in 1889 to take the chair of English Literature and the instructorship in German, For fourteen years he carried the work of both departments until in 1903 he was left free to devote the whole of his energies to the work in English. The value of his work to Knox College, and to the me11 and women who have studied under him, is inestimablef For the college, it has been a potent factor in placing the name of Knox high among those of the educational institutions of the country, for many students the man and his work have been both the inspiration to higher scholarship and nobler ideals, and a means of attaining them. Recogni- tion of his success as a teacher of English Literature has come also from other institutions. In the summer sessions of the University of Illinois, in 1903 and 1907, Dr. Simonds held the position of instructor and lecturer in Eng- lish, while during the summer of 1908 he did similar work at the Uni- versity of Ohio. At the formation of the Illinois Association of Teachers of English in 1907, Dr. Simonds was chosen as the lirst president of this body. While he has been at the head of the Department of English at Knox, Dr. Simonds has gained national recognition as an author and authority of English Literature. A member of the Modern Language Association of North America, he has contributed frequently to the leading critical magazines, and to Modern Language Notes. His first published volume, brought out by D. C. Heath and Company in 1889, was Sir Thomas Wyatt and llis Poems, This was followed by A Student's History of English Literature, published in 1894-, and in 1902 by an Introduction to the Study of English Fiction. lly use in colleges and uni- versities of the highest rank, both eastern and western, these books have become standard in the fields they cover. A Student's History of American Literature, to be published this year by the Houghton Mifflin Company, is his latest literary production. Dr. Simonds also has edited Scott's Ivanhoe, 1902, DeQuincy's Revolt of the Tartars, 1908, and Gaskell's Cranford In 1898 Dr. Simonds was united in marriage with Miss Katherine Court- right, Dean of Women, Knox College, during the years 1896 and 1897. There are three daughters, Marjorie, Katherine, and Eleanor. Dr. and Mrs, Simonds are leaders in the intellectual life of Galesburg, and hold a peculiarly high position in the hearts of the people of Knox College and of the community.

'3, I THE GALE NINETEEN-TEN PROFESSOR SIMONDS By Buss PERRY 3jUST before sitting down to comply with the request of the editor of the GALE, who has asked me to write something about Professor Simonds, T happened to take from its dusty shelf a bound volume of lecture notes on English vowel sounds, made long ago in a German class room. My intention was to p1'0VC to a Harvard graduate student of the present epoch that 'his elders had also, in their day. kept their noses tolerably near the grindstone. But out of the decorus note-book tumbled a folded sheet of foolscap, inscribed in Simonds' familiar hand to Seinem lieben freunde, R. Perry. It was a page of the original manu- script of Simonds' doctoral dissertation at Strassburg, on Sir Thomas Wyatt. 'But why dedicated to me? At this gracious distance from the event. there is no treachery in explaining. On t'he despondency resulting from long labor upon his dissertation, combined with worrying over the examination, Simonds had been rash enough, in one passage of his thesis, to write thus: lXfleanwhile, the results to be gained by continuing the examination of the two texts in this uncertain way are too slight and too indefinite to warrant spending much more time upon it. This statement was true enough, for all T know, but I was alarmed over the possi- ble effect upon the mind of Professor Ten Brink, who had to pass upon the merits of Simonds' investigations. I begged him not to admit, in this fashion, that his labor had been in vain. VVhereupon Simonds, too discouraged to care what he was writing, deleted the above-quoted sentence and composed this extraor- dinary substitute: Meanwhile, t'he results obtained are sufficient and satisfactory. and especially valuable in demonstrating the priority of the Harrington text. This is of course most important for us to know. Thus amended, the dissertation passed Ten Brink, and Simonds won his Ph. D. But he presented his cautious friend with that corrected Ms. page, to serve as a cynical reminder of the il1SiClG view of academic honors. This is a trivial anecdote, and the Strassburg student days are far behind us now. Kindly Professor Ten Brink, greatest of ghosts, is no doubt sipping his Rhine wine and smoking his one mild cigar beside some Elysian stream,-and chafing the Baconians, if there are any Raconians there. Simonds and his critiC are staid college professors in America, and the nightingalcs are singing in the Alsatian gardens for some one else to hear. But it was a fair seed-timenfor one's soul, while it lasted, and that folded page of the dissertation on Sir Thomas Wyatt brings it all back again. We did not know much about Siinonds at that time except that he was a graduate Of Brown, that he had an eye for picking a good restaurant in an unprom- ising StrCC'f. Illlfl that he had a knack of writing peculiarly graceful English. VVe 1'6- ioiced in his Ph.

But there are few of us who can remember the exact size of his family, or the titles of the books K N OX cou.sca :- I D E D l C A T I 0 N K N O X couazca 8 D E D I C A T I O N THE GALE NINETEEN-TEN he has written. We do not know the amount of his salary,-although it is a safe guess that no professors salary is large enough. Nor do we know the extent of his popularity with his classes, there being no weather-cocks delicate enough to register the changes in the wind of undergraduate opinion. VVhat we do cherish is the certainty that Professor Simonds is justifying the affectionate hopes of his old companions. His professional progress has been of a quiet and substantial kind. Like most of us who are teaching English Literature to-day, he has had to reckon with a somewhat shifting and sceptical attitude on the part of the public. The stress laid twenty years ago upon the philological side of English studies, and the emphasis upon the necessity of preparation in Germany, have suffered some alteration. Very likely, if Simonds and other good men of his day had studied in Paris rather than in Germany, American literary criticism would have been enriched. and our knowledge of linguistic sources not essentially impover- ished. I remember with pleasure that the great Alphonse Daudet once praised Professor Simonds' account of him in the Introduction to English Fiction 3 and there is many another exquisite French writer whose spirit would have been sym- pathetically interpreted by our friend. Yet it is useless to surmise what our little group of Strassburg students of English might have done in other circumstances and with a different training. We have all, in our various ways, muddled through somehow. We have had to do too much routine work, for the colleges employing us have been chronically poor. Most of us have had to do outside work-lecturing to the Gentiles and writing books for the publishers. But while these bread-winning necessities have doubt- less impaired scholarly thoroughness and the purely literary value of our college work, they have brought some compensating advantages. To Professor Simonds. especially, the wider public has been generous. His History of English Liter- attire, -to be followed this year by the long awaited volume on American Liter- ature-has been welcomed by thousands of teachers and students for its sym- pathy with varied types of literary performance and its unfailing grace of style. Two or three books of such a quality, in addition to the faithful performance of our college duties for a score of years, make a record which many a college teacher of English vainly envies. May Professor Simonds live to write the best of the good things there are in him, and may his pupils always be lucky enough to recognize, close by the highway of required tasks, the presence of a friendly and large-minded counsellor! E Q THE'GALE NINETEEN-TEN MEANING OF THE ENDOWMENT CAMPAIGN By DR. T1-1oMAs lVlCCl.lil.I.AND I I-IE campaign for the Quarter of a Million has become a matter of history. But while the strenuous efforts of those who we1'e immediately concerned in its success and the loyal and generous support of the friends of Knox every- where are still fresh in memory, it may be well to ask ourselves what the addition of S250,000, or rather S2ti0,000, to whichlthe momentum acquired by the canvass has carried us, means for the future of the institution. In the Hrst place, it relieves the college from a debt which 'has been accumu- lating for many years, it gives an income sufncient to meet the annual expenses, With, perhaps, a slight margin for expansion, it provides for a 3550.000 Science Hall, the erection of which will begin this season. It demands and gives promise of a still larger endowment and a still better equipment in the near future. but its value cannot be measured in terms of money nor in buildings and apparatus. Of deeper and more lasting value than any material asset is the fact that the college holds a place iu the minds and hearts of multitudes of friends throughout the length and breadth of the land which it never occupied before. This is the greateSt asset which the financial campaign, the success of which was announced on that never to be forgotten night of February 15, 1909, has given us. As the editorial in the E7lC7l'fll'-Q Mail of February lfith put it: The college to-day stands on a hilltop with the eyes of the nation upon it. From sea to sea. and from the Canadian plains to the waters of the Gulf. the name of Knox has been sounded. The slumbering affection of alumni and old friends 'has been awakened anew and friends unknown before have held out a helping hand. The 15th of February, 1909, was Founders' Day in a new sense. From it the college will date a new era. Then was revealed in an unmistakable way the fad that the spirit of the founders still lives. Witli this assured the future of the larger and better Knox is secure. I-Ier sons and daug'hters will see to it that her ex- pansion will meet the demands which new conditions may impose.

To the former's far-sighted business judgment, courage, and faith in the worth of the cause and in the mettle of Knox friends and alumni were due the determination to inaugurate the campaign during the year 1908. To t'he exhaustless enthusiasm and untiring energy of both men were due, in large part, the splendid response made by Knox's constituency to the appeal to stand by the college in the crisis that was faced. Dr. McClelland carried the burden of re- sponsibility which always comes to the leader of a great enterprise, and with it all was tireless in carrying out the actual work of the campaign. Professor Griffith came into close personal touch with the hundreds of alumni and former students of the institution whose earnest efforts and generous gifts in her behalf gave to the campaign its deepest significance. Both men gave years of their lives in the exhausting labor and intense nervous strain of the final months: both of them, un- doubtedly, will see rich reward in the increased usefulness possible to Knox in the era to come. To each the institution owes a lasting debt of gratitude. Knox was ably served in the campaign also by Kellogg D. McClelland, '05. The head of a man of forty combined with the enthusiastic energy of youthf' was the tribute paid 'him at the height of the battle by a prominent co-worker. Mr. McClelland's knowledge of Knox people, Knox tradition-his harmony with the spirit of the college, together with his keen business judgment and systematic Work in planning and pushing the campaign, made his services invaluable to Knox.

What wonderful promise in that! VVhat breadth, what life, what hope. A great tree is strong in storm and crisis as it has roots broadly extended which 2l1'C alive and in service-emphasis on the last words. Knox College for Lin- coln was not merely a banner on the east wall of Old Main. lt was at once the dec- laration and the definition of her standard. lt was the collective voice of her founders out of the past, and of her defenders, and of her loyal sons and daughters who were everywhere, and it was potent in a crisis. Again this collective voice from every- where has spoken in the new quarter of a million saying that the material foundation of the college shall be strengthened, and in this great breadth of contribution and co- operation and intelligent, self-sacrificing interest resides peculiar assurance and hope of the future. Everyone rejoices. and be- lieves that the event is more than an inci- dent in the life of the college-rather that it founds an era, that Old Knox is now safe and that accretions to her endowment of which this one is only a prophecy, will surely follow. Assuredly in an event so full of benefit that which was good also in the individual making. And the way of this is not far to testimony that it had rarely enjoyed such an a membership of close to two hundred and and blessing to the college there was sense for all who participated in its seek. The Chicago Association bears awakening. It discovered that it had fifty graduates and former students, that few other colleges have so many here or such a number of eminent ones and that there is great strength and opportunity for usefulness, and self-help as well, in this enviable position. And it rejoiced in the opportunity of service. With gladsome promptitude it organized and parceled out the work. Everybody had an opportunity to give. And there were gifts that were hard for the givers and sacrifices of time and comfort for the workers, but all rejoiced in a great reward --that reward which follows upon the glad subordination of the minor to the major and expands as the altruistic promptings of mind and heart are zealously pursued. The channel was a rare one through which to register in that service which ennobles and nplifts and inspires. And it was a convincing illustration in- deed of both the fact and the power of such an inspiration to see committees self- constituted and for the love alone of their high purpose earnestly facing the blasts of that stormiest day and night of February at the last that they might roll up another thousand before the expiration of the time limit. This took some courage. No matter whether they succeeded or how well. Such fidelity of endeavor always succeeds, and has in its own increase its own reward. ln manifold ways it did us good and this may be recorded as a Chicago viewpoint.

PERCIVAL I'IUGE'1' most inspiring and enheartening part of the Endowment Campaign was that which had as its object the enlisting of the support of the citizens of Galesburg. This was most successfully accomplishedg so successfully that the whole city was stirred, genuine interest and enthusiasm aroused, many contribu- tions received, and the college entrenched more firmly than ever in the confidence and affection of the people. From the first it was certain that there would be large gifts from the mem- bers of the Board of Trustees residing in Galesburg. But it was doubly important that the general public should be enlisted. In the first place, it was certain that without liberal contribution by the city of Galesburg the total amount would not be raised. This was due, in part, to the fact that all contributions from every available source were imperatively needed if the whole amount were to be raised within the time limit, equally due to the further fact that it was known that many large gifts from non-residents would not be forthcoming if it should seem that the people of the home city were not deeply and genuinely interested in the cola lege and its future. In the second place, the financial campaign, important as it was, could not then be considered the largest issueg nor can its success be counted as the greatest gain. The real issue was that of the continued loyalty of this community to its historic college, and the greatest gain the manifestation in such unmistakable terms of an undiminished regard and an ever increasing determination to sustain and support the college as it faces the larger problems of its constantly expanding field and ever enlarging opportunity. For the most exacting could not ask greater manifestation of loyalty or more substantial support than that which was given. At a dinner tendered to the busi- ness men of the city by Mr. Geo. A. Lawrence the local campaign was launched. A business men's committee was appointed consisting of sixteen members. This committee innnediately organized and pushed the local canvass until the day of final success, receiving constant advice and co-operation from President Mc- Clelland, and assisted very greatly by the systematic plans and accurate records provided and kept by Prof. Griffith and Kellogg McClelland. It is impossible within the limits of this article to do justice to the large part contributed by these gentlemen to the success of the work of the committee. The work of this committee was ably seconded and forwarded by a larg: munber of volunteer workers. The loyalty to and love for the college on the part of the people of the city was so constantly and so warmly manifested that solicitation in most cases met with a most ready and willing response. In all, one thousand one hundred and eighty-two contributions were made by residents of Galesburg, ranging in amount from 350.10 to S25,000, and aggregat- ing 588,024.81 THE GALE NINETEEN-TEN As the closing day of the campaign drew near the interest became intense. On the morning of the 15th of February 535,000 remained yet to be raised. Some Dart could be counted upon from large givers who had given assurance of their intention to subscribe, but who had not yet actually done so. But the rest must come from Galesburg. All day pledges, large and small, were secured. 1-lour by hour the amount still required grew smaller. llut when the last grand rally brought the friends of the college to Central Church in the evening there was still 37,542 to be raised. The scenes and events of that evening are historic. They will not be for- gotten by any who were there. Songs, cheers, speeches and pledges mingled in strange but stimulating confusion. The Class Scholarships were completed. Other scholarships were founded. Big gifts and little followed each other. The night wore on, but the day was won. For at eleven o'clock President McClelland announced that the s250,ooo had at last been fully pledged. Then, while the big bell in the church tower sent the news ringing over the city, the Galesburg Musi- cal Union sang the Hallelujah Chorus and the New Era for Old Knox had begun. K N 0 X conuzcr: 15 E N D O W M E N T K N O X COLLEGE 16 E N D O W M E N T THE GALE NINETEEN-TEN THE GEGRGE DAVIS SCIENCE HALL By DR. H.. V. NEAL LL alumni and friends of Knox College will rejoice in the official announce ment that ground will be broken during Commencement Week for a new Science Hall, costing 350,000 It has been only three years since the movement was begun, which has resulted in this most welcome announcement. In 1900, Mr. Carnegie made the conditional offer to the trustees of 350,000 for a Science building in case the trustees raised EI550,000 for its maintenance. This offer has since been changed as a result of the campaign for aquarter of a million for en- dowment to 350,000 for endowment, and the science building will be known as the George Davis Science llall, in honor of a former treasurer of the college through the gift of 325,000 by Mr. Thomas J. Mclinight of Galesburg. During the past decade and a half since the Science courses in Knox College were placed on a laboratory basis, the scientilic departments have been compelled to occupy quarters quite unsuited to their needs. Moreover, the growth in size of the college classes and of interest in advanced courses in science has made the need not only of more adequate facilities and equipment but also of larger quart- ers, an imperative one. The new Science I-Iall will therefore mean much to the college, much more than a new and stately building to adorn the beautiful Knox campus. It will mean accommodations for a larger number of students in the lab- oratory courses and provision for the storage of apparatus and equipment-in fact modern conveniences instead of the crowded and inconvenient rooms now used. Moreover, it will mean much in improving the content of courses in science, more especially in those advanced courses where the conditions required for experimen- tation could not be met in the old laboratories. In place of crowded, ill-lighted, ill- ventilated and poorly heated rooms, the new building will be carefully built with these needs in view. Furthermore, the modern lecture rooms, well ventilated and equipped with projection apparatus, will mean much not only to, the college but to the city of Galesburg in supplying places for public lectures, and Knox College will be able to perform more completely its function as an educational factor in the community. Space does not permit a detailed statement of the de- tails of the plans of the building. Suffice it to say here that in the new George Davis Science I-Iall Knox College will have equipment for college courses in science second to none in the educational institutions in the middle west. Xu: O5 Z3 Mo ZQOBEIHZP-' I ALL IN! CENTRAL CHURCH, FEBRUARY 15, 1909 K N O X cotuaca 138 E N D O W M E N T THE GALE NINETEEN-TEN FROM THE STUDENTS VIEWPOINT EVRING four years at Knox College there are many times when the greatness of the institution is borne in upon the student with overwhelming force. When alumni representing every generation of the students of half a century- many of them men whose names are household words from the Atlantic to the Pa- cific,-gathered in Central Congregational Church to do honor to the life and mem- ory of Professor Albert Hurd, the under-classman had a visionlof the splendid history of the college to which he had allied himself. When one of three hundred singing the Knox Field Song in honor of a victorious Knox orator or athletic team, the student feels the thrill of the Knox spirit of to-day in every fibre of his being. But never, perhaps, was the real greatness of the college made more significant than on the night of February 15 when the last ten thousand of the quarter of a million was contributed. The music, the cheering under-graduates, the vast assemblage faded away as the mere incidentals that they were. In their places appeared the homes in every part of the land from which money-much of it hard-earned money representing real sacrifice-had come and was coming. Men and women who had fought the good fight, others who are in the thick of it, others who have barely entered the fray were centering their hopes, and some of them their prayers, on the outcome of this battle. And the significance of it?-why, this was the real Knox College- its output for seventy years, 'its faculty and trustees, its student body, all imbued with the spirit of service and sacrifice of which the college was born, and which has been the breath of its life, and acting in accordance with this spirit! This was Knox College! It was the joining of the past, the present and the future-the future made possible by the past and the present. Two hundred and fifty thousand dollars represents much in material things. Everybody knows that it means freedom from the yearly deficits which for years have made the business management of the institution an increasingly heavy bur- den: that it will provide and maintain the modern equipment required of the first class college of to-day. That it will put Knox on a firm financial basis is uni- versally recognized. To the student, the securing of the added endowment in the manner in which it was raised brings not only a glad vision of Knox equipped for greater achievements, but more strongly still gives to him a realization of the real greatness of his Alma Mater in the love and confidence of the people.

In the first place, it is unusual to find so many men who are so highly trained in their respective subjects working in any college of this type. In the second place, they seem to be men of big. broad characters and practical common sense as well as highly trained specialists. But the best thing about it is the relation they seem to hold to the college and to the students personally. It is unique. This observer went right to the center of one of the most striking character- istics of Knox. lt is only necessary to glance through a catalogue or a GALE to see that the department heads are men who are authorities in the subjects they are teaching-men of thorough training and broad teaching experience in the foremost educational institutions of this country and Europe. To appreciate the observer's second point, however, one must know the men personally. And this is not hard for the student to do. Indeed, he can hardly escape it, for at Knox so much emphasis is laid on the personal relation existing between student and pro- fessor that before he knows it the former feels that he is understood and really liked by at least one member of the faculty. The start once made, he is soon in a position to receive the benefits of one of the most effective means ot develop- ment that any educational institution can offer--the friendship of a body of broad- mindecl, Christian teachers, well trained for and deeply devoted to the work they are doing. What does it mean when Knox professors refuse from colleges and univer- sities East and West greater remuneration than they are receiving at Knox? This has been done throughout the history of the college, and is done now every year. Those in a position to know say that it is because the professors concerned believe that they can be of more real service and accomplish more real good at Knox and under Knox conditions than they can in any other field. This has been true for so long that Knox has come to draw men of these high ideals-and Knox scholastic standards are so high that no man without the highest professional ability can make good. The founders have passed away, the first great group of teachers, represented by Hurd, Comstock, and Churchill, is no more. But in the faculty of to-day we find the character of these joined with the modern efficiency and progressiveness which is to be a distinctive characteristic of the Knox of the future.

MOTTO Bc Different COLORS Blue and Hflzite I O those who have at any time during the past four years been connected with our Alma Mater, we need no introduction. We have been known as the class that is different. In the belief that if we through our college career followed this standard of action it would not only beneht ourselves, but also give others an insight into our true nature and a knowledge of our spirit of progress, we decided that we must be the class that is different, for if we were to be remembered we must have some distinctive element to characterize our actions. We believe that in nearly every activity into which we have entered as a class, we have by virtue of something original been successful in maintaining our standard. A mere emnneration of our accomplishments in these activities sounds like idle boasting of our virtues and of the successes with which we have met in the execution of our various projects. VVe ask merely for retrospection upon past deeds. Actions speak louder than any words that it is possible to use in this con- nection, and we believe that they speak in our favor. K N OX COLLEGE -JL T H E S E N I O R S K N OX COLLEGE 36 'I' H E S E N I O R S THE GALE NINETEEN-TEN VVC would not have you think, however, that we are wholly without fault or that we have never er1'ed. No matter how worthy the motives were which prompted our actions, we do not claim to always have been infallible in their exe- cution. VVe do believe, however, that such mistakes as we have made are not so serious but that they will be easily overlooked and will leave behind no permanent results which would be injurious to the welfare of the institution. Being different was a difficult task. Wie had to be ditbferent without being too different if we meant to accomplish anything commendable in the end. It took courage many times to break away from precedent and tradition and to uphold a position not previously considered favorable. lf we have, however, during our stay here shown by our actions that being diFferent is a worthy incentive when being different means being better, we will leave our Alma Mater feeling that we have been fully repaid for our endeavors during the four years spent here and that if Old Knox has in the least been advanced by our efforts to be different. we will, in a slight measure have given return for the much she has given us.

Greatly increased were they in might and knowledge, though their num- bers were become smaller. ll. And a mighty ruler was raised up over them, a prince from the land of the Quineianinites and Grummon was his name. i 4. And verily never was seen such pep in a people before. Their CTY was the voice of a great storm for it was the cry of the Sophomore. And Grum- mon did rise before the people and spake unto them in this wise, saying: 5. Lo, not all are so blessed. Behold the infant lfreshmenites, greatly to be pitied are they. Let us have mercy upon them and deal gently with them 215 with children. Let us be an example to them, for verily their verdancy is very great. And the people did shout louder and say, Amen, Amen. A I li. And it came to pass in those days that the lTreshmenitesgdid rise m il body and march to the dwelling of the king and did lay hold upon Grummon, the King of the Sophomores. , 7. And the infant Freshmen did place the royal prisoner in a far-off pr1S011, with trusted guards to watch over him. And he was bound even with his lia.nClS to the hands of the guards that he might not escape and his feet were bound like- wise. And most wonderful of all, these young guards did expect these puny bonds to hold the king. And they slept. i S. And, lo! when they next beheld the light, their royal prisoner WHS SQUC- for he had burst the bonds and returned to the Land of the Sophomores, leaving them asleep. , 9. Great was the rejoicing among the Sophomores and loud was the sing' ing, andyea, there was the setting free of pigeons over the heads of the people. 10.

And it came to pass in that day that Raysaut, the ruler of the Fresh- menites, thought to exalt himself even as Grummon had done. 75. And when his haughtiness became unbearable, the Sophomores seized upon this Raysaut and east him into a far-oil dungeon. Whereupon great con- sternation fell upon the l.'l1'CSlllllCllltLS, and they ran hither and thither and set out in search of their king, for they knew tue strength of the Sophomores and held no faith in their chief, knowing he could not escape alone. 33. And the night came and darkness, and the puny prisoner did strive again and again to escape, but the light came and behold, he was yet a prisoner. -I-. And he knew his helplessness and knew that he or his people could never free him, so he called upon the Abingdonites in his sore distress and did beseech their gods. 5. And thus it came to pass that by the strength of the government of the Abingdonites he was freed from the mighty hold of the Sophomores. li. And his captivity was of many, many hours, yea more than the number of the months of the year. And had it not been for the billy and star of the Abingdonites, 'hc might yet be in captivity and the hours of his imprisonment more than the dollars in the Endowment Fund. 7. And the defiance of the 1'ed and black died away as an echo like the hollow moaning of the sea in its eaves. S.

An entertainment somewhat resem- bling an all-night carnival was held and toward morning Mr. Smith, the hotel keeper, became fearful lest his house should tumble down about his ears and de- cided to try some heroic measures. Believing that most of the trouble lay in the fact that one of the party waS confined in a room against his will, he determined to try and stop the l1l1l9l9UlJ- Accordingly he enlisted the services of the janitor, Peter Harlan. Peter was dressed in an old blue coat and a slouch hat. A tin star was made and pinned on his coat. He went to the room and demanded admission in the name of the law. VVhen the Sophomores saw what they thought to be an officer, they immediately wilted and surrendered their prey, after which they beat a hasty retreat from the town about twelve dollars poorer than before they came.

The President was just winding up a stirring campaign in the West and came to Galesburg from Chicago on a special train in time to make the closing address on this, one of the biggest days in the history of the college. President Taft was escorted to the college campus by an escort composed of over a lnmdred Knox men, including thc foot ball team, and some fifty Lombard men. The procession was formed at the depot, and marched through lylain Street and to the campus, where the exercises were being held. Wlieii the parade came into sight of the vast throng which covered the campus, a great shout went up. The campus, the college and the platform, decorated with llags and bunting, were in gala attire and the fates had provided one of the most beautiful of autumn days. When judge Taft appeared at -L o'clock in the afternoon, fully twenty thousand people thronged the historic swardu of Knox. Seats for two thousand people had been reserved and in front of these was the big platform, constructed to accommodate four hundred special guests. This was the situation when President Taft began to speak under the shadow of the ivy-covered walls of Knox College, to quote from the Clzicago Rcc01'ci-Herald, and upon the identical spot where Abraham Lincoln and Stephen A. Douglas engaged in joint debate exactly fifty years ago. Distinguished as was the last speaker, he had been preceded by men who may likewise be so designated. Hon. Theodore E. Burton, now United States Senator from Ohio, a man high in the counsels of the nation and a forceful speaker, gave the oration on Abraham Lincoln. Hon. Adlai E. Stevenson, former vice president of the United States, recounted the life and deeds of Stephen A. Douglas. Sena- tor Albert I. Hopkins of Illinois, Robert Douglas of North Carolina, grandson of the Little Giant, General Alfred Orendorff, president of the State Historical Society, jules Lombard and others took prominent parts on the program. An- other, who, on account of his splendid address, and in recognition of his service in other ways toward making the celebration a success, deserves special mention, is Hon. Clark E. Carr, an intimate friend of Abraham Lincoln and the president of the day. u: U ua EMI -J C U ml-Oct PRESIDENT YX'1LL1,x31 H. TAFT xr KNOX K N 0 X conuscs 72 H I S T 0 R Y THE GALE NINETEEN-TEN All of these great men spoke and all of these exercises took place in fitting commemoration of the historic debate of October 7, 1858. On the morning of that day, the ground now occupied by the County Court House, and the surrounding parks. was covered during the morning with people eating lunches and waiting for the beginning of the debate. A platform had been erected at the east end of Old Main and in the afternoon the speakers proceeded to what was to be the scene of the debate. The debate was opened by Douglas. He was short, compact, and seemed to clinch every telling point with a shake of his massive head. He was deliberate and forceful, and by the magnetism of his personality and the sweep of his logi- cal arguments, seemed to take his audience along with him. Lincoln began to speak in a high-pitched voice and related one of his characteristic anecdotes. While Lincoln was speaking the Little Giant sat with the stub of a cigar be- tween his teeth, taking in every word that his opponent spoke. The relative merits of the debaters is a matter of coniecture, but all agreed that the like of Lincoln and Douglas had never been heard in this city. In the November number of the C cm'1n'y, Frederick Trevor Hill, in a review of the Lincoln-Douglas debates in which the debate at Knox College is referred to as one of the most important in the series, says: There was no doubt to which candidate the college students adhered, for across the east side of the main build- ing and directly behind the speakers. they had swung an immense banner an- nouncing 'Knox College for Lincoln,' and it was under this defiant motto that Douglas began the fifth debate. The results of the Lincoln-Douglas debates of 1858, of which the one in this city was the fifth, are well known. Douglas was elevated to the United States senate and nominated for the presidency by the Democracy in 1860. Lincoln was elected to the presidency, the eleven states seceded, the Civil War ensued, slavery was abolished and then came the tragic death of Lincoln. All of these and many more events, far-reaching in their influence and importance, were made intensely interesting to the students of Knox College. because they had seen and heard the chief actors in all of them. The exercises of last October emphasize the wealth of tradition which sur- rounds Knox. Williaiii H. Taft was the fifth president of the United States to speak on the Knox campus. Four presidents preceded him: Lincoln in 1858. Harrison in 1890, McKinley in 1899, and Roosevelt in 1900. Witliiii a few days. on the same spot, a speech was made by William Jennings Bryan, thrice candi- date for the presidency. Thus does the past of Knox grow ever richer. It is one of the most valued heritages of the Knox of to-day that it is able to derive from its treasured past its greatest inspiration.

FLYNN Vice Pres-idvni - - - Romain' J. BENDER Svc-rvta1'y-Trcasnr. r ----- josian Bixiscock MONO the many activities open to every student at Knox, non offers greater opportunities tor development than work in oratory and debating. The value ot forensics in the training of the all-around man has been almost univers- ally recognized throughout the history of the race. For half a century Knox Col- lege has held a foremost place among the educational institutions of the West in oratory and debating. ller representatives in inter-collegiate contests have estab- lished and for years maintained her reputation as a leader in this phase of college work. And the men who have thus brought distinction upon their Alma Mater are not the only ones for whom Knox forensics have been a potent means of de- velopment. ln fact, the development of the average man rather than the produc- tion of a few prize-winning individuals is the chief end of the Knox system. The work of generations of Knox students has proven how effective Knox is in attain- ing this end. The success of Knox oratory and debating depends largely upon tln'ee things -the literary societies, the Department of Oratory, and the spirit' or attitude of the student body in regard to the matter. During the current year all three of these elements have been in the condition most favorable for the highest type of work. The percentage of men who are not only members of Gnothautii or Adel- phi, but who have been active workers in one or the other society is unusually high. Iloth societies are in a most healthy condition, and the rivalry between the two is scarcely less keen than during the good old daysfy The work of Professor Watkins has given the Department of Oratory added standing with the student body and has been most effective in developing both debaters and orators. And- what is, perhaps, the most important thing of all,-the spirit of the college towards this phase of activity has been increasingly strong. No more inspiring demonstrations of Knox spirit were ever made, in connection with athletics or anything else, than those which preceded and followed the Knox-Beloit debate or the victory of Bruce McClelland in the Inter-collegiate Oratorical Contest. And this same enthusiastic interest, less intense, of course, but just as earnest, has been manifested in the regular work which develops the average man as well as produces the winning orator or debating team. The year has been one of splendid achievement for Knox in inter-collegiate contests. In winning the Inter-collegiate Contest for Illinois, Bruce McClelland won for himself and the college the honor of representing the state in the inter- state contest. His oration is most certainly of inter-state calibre, and in him both Old Knox and Illinois will have a worthy champion. The victory for Knox in the Knox-Beloit debate was a decisive one and gives Knox a chance to split even with her old rival next year, which opportunity will be made the most of in the light of present conditions. Following this is a resume of the past year in oratory and debating, not only making permanent the records of the contestants in the various events, but also giving some idea of the large number of contests open to the average student of Knox. whether man or woman.

THE GALE NINETEEN-TEN THE FOUNDING OF THE GALE By Du. A. M. I-l.-xnvisv, 'SSL fixia on 'rniz rouNnERs or wuz c:.xI.n. r' DR. A. M, HARVEY Ill' twentieth anniversary of our college annual seems an opportune time to give a brief description of the birth of the GAIJQ, especially so as the class S0 which class furnished two editors and one business manager of this pub- lication hold their twentieth reunion at Knox this June. The GALE was founded by the fraternities, the Hrst volumes being puhlished by them under the direction of the following editorial boards: i VOL. I Lysander Cassidy, fb A GJ, Editor-in-Chief Andrew M. llarvey, fb 1' A. Business Manager VVm. HT. Phelps, fb A GJ Ino. Ross, fI1 0 T A. T-T. Stephens, O H TI Ino. Edgerton, CTI Q 'I' fbas. TT.

Paddock, B GD II, Business Manager K N O X conuzcz 105 P U B L I C A T I O N S K N O X conuzcz 106 P U B L I C A T I O N S THE GALE NINETEEN-TEN The idea of a college annual originated in the minds of the members of the CII A 69 and 412 F. A fraternities. They interested the members of the local fraternities then in Knox, with the result that each fraternity selected two editors. These representatives then organized the Board of Editors. The chief editorship was given to the oldest fraternity, the business manager to the next oldest, with the understanding that these two oftices in the future, should rotate in the frater- nities according to seniority of establislnnent. Among the names suggested as suitable for the embryo publication, that of THE GALE in honor of the founder of thc College, suggested by A. M. l-Iarvey was selected, subject to the approval of the Gale family. This permission was courteously and promptly given and in addition a member of the Gale family fur- nished a picture of the founder of the college, from which was reproduced in the annual the first likeness of the founder, ever seen by a majority of the students. Volume I was dedicated to Dr. Newton Bateman. Great interest was manifested by the entire student body when the announce- ment was made that the fraternities would publish a College Annual. The anti-- fraternity element, which was very strong, immediately showed antagonism by holding secret meetings to devise plans to issue a rival publication. Their Edi- torial Board was annonnced with great enthusiasm and the Pauflzvon re-awakened from the year '69 was again cast on the uncertain sea of college journalism, only to be blown into oblivion by the rising GALE. Wlieii the rival publication ap- peared there was no doubt but that Lysander Cassidy had edited the better An- nual and one that was more representative of the college and of the entire student body, and the issue of 500 copies was quickly exhausted. Volumes one and two were issued from a Peoria publishing house as the Galesburg publishers had no Greek type and T1-nc GAI.Ii'S credit did not warrant the publishers to purchase the same. Many of the drawings depicting college life were done by Robt. I. Finley C875 His series illustrating a Junior Day, and the Oratorical Contest being especially clever. Great credit was especially due Will J. Phelps, '88, for his ideas and as- sistance in founding THE GALE. He was an indefatigable worker and his enthu- siasm was contagious throughout the entire Board of Editors. The goodness and gentleness of these two lovable boys, now dead many years, still linger in the memories of the men and women who wre boys and girls in Knox twenty years ago. lt is impossible in a short article to give all the interesting events connected with the founding of THE GALE for it was not really founded until repeated pub- lications had accomplished, what the Fraternities hoped for in the beginning-to convey to the outside world some idea of the enviable position held by Knox among the higher institutions of learning, and to promote the welfare and pros- perity of good old Knox. A glance at the names of the Editors of the first four volumes shown at the beginning of this article, shows how the editors of one year, helped issue the suc- ceeding volume, thus securing a harmony which made the four volumes really one book, and reading the pages of this composite book one is struck with the awak- ening of the college spirit, and manifestation of love for Alma Mater and sym- pathy among fellow students a feature so pronounced in the New Knox of to-day, THE GALE was established by enthusiastic boys now grown into strong men. That it will continue to be published by other enthusiastic boys as long as College Annuals have a part in college life and college journalism, is the wish of its founders. 0 C ,RHI-I D T u MHA Ear Chloe 0.1-'Z R 9 Teh! .Bvlej C I B C W3 VIH-Tsar xx: QS 25 Mu Aw IQ 9-'Dm-1-'O4f -'Ozm K N OX COLLEGE 108 S O C I E T Y THE GALE NINETEEN-TEN SIXTEENTH ANNUAL JUNIOR PROMENADE LESCHER l'lALL, NiARCI-I N INE'1'EEN'l'I'I NINETEEN HUNIDIQEIJ AND NINE COMMITTEE R.

URING the year 1908-1909 the Knox Association 'has endeavored to carry out this three- E fold purpose: to broaden the spiritual, mental, and social life of its members. The manifest sincerity and the large appreciation of the personal relationship with Christ so evident in the quiet hour of weekly meeting have cast a widespread inlluence among the women of the college. The opportunity for expression in the meetings, for work in the Bible an-:l mission lstudy classes and the privileges of hearing speaker.s brought before the Association affords great chalice of mental development. Frequent social gatherings during the year have brought the members and the young women of the college into friendly ac: quaintance. The ultimate end of the Association, its work and inlluencc is to make Jesus Christ real to every girl.

A large percentage of students at Knox are members of the organization and are taking an active part in the various phases of its work. I-ts standing in the college is high, and during the past few years it has steadily grown in influence until it is coming to be recognized again. as in the older day-s, as the organization about which the .social life among the 1llCl1 of the college should center. The stag banquet given at the beginning of the year, and the very successful foot ball banquet by means of which money for the K foot ball sweaters was raised are examples of its activities in this sphere. Nineteen ten will be the thirtieth anniversary of the Association, and all indications are that it will be one of the most successful years in its history. ' K N O X COLLEGE 112 K N 0 X G A L E s B U ' R G THE GALE NINETEEN-TEN KN OX-GALESBURG DAY ATURDAY, September 18, 1908, will pass into Knox history as the date of the initiation of one of the most significant of the events on the annual col- lege calendar-Knox-Galesburg Day. Knox College and Galesburg are the twill products of the great ideals of the founders, made .possible by their voluntary resignation of their Eastern l.omes for the establishment of an independent com- munity in the VVest, declared lion. George Shumway, mayor of the city of Gales- burg in his address upon this occasion. And this getting togetner of townspeople and students on the campus once a year is intended to warm the feeling of close kinship between town and college, and to bring the students and faculty and the other citizens of Galesburg into closer personal contact. lf succeeding Knox- Galesburg days are as much enjoyed by both parties as the first one was, they cer- tainly will accomplish this purpose. ln the morning, under the direction of Rev. David Fales, jr., the school children of the grade schools were given a great time at games and other amuse- ments on Willard Field. About noon the older guests of the college began to ar- rive, and during the luncheon hour the grounds were thronged with picnicers enjoying their meal on the campus on one of Autumn's finest days. This first Knox-Galesburg day was made distinctive by the formal presenta- tion of a magnificent flagpole to the college by the local Alumni Association. The staff, which is of red cedar and runs 50 feet from the ground, stands east and north of Alumni lrlall in a line with the diagonal walk across the Court House grounds. Principal F. D. Thomson of the Galesburg l-ligh School, President of the Alumni Association, made the presentation, acceptance in behalf of the college being made by President McClelland. Afterwards the college Hag, which for the past year had been in possession of the Sophomore Class, was carried to the staff by representatives of the class and raised for the iirst time by Mrs. George A. Lawrence. The closing address was by Mrs. Martha Farnum Webster, who spoke in behalf of the Daughters of the American Revolution, which organization presented the flag to the college two years ago. Following the formal program, the crowd adjourned to VVillard Field where the students entertained them for an hour with burlesque political rallies and an inter-class base ball game. Everybody seemed to enjoy the picnic and the exercises to the limit, and the ammal observance of Knox-Galesburg day undoubtedly will become one of the customs of the college and city. It is significant as a reminder of the splendid and interwoven traditions of both, and it bids fair to become a potent influence in cementing the close relationships which have always existed between them.

Author of Seeing Roosevelt, Annals of Africa, Survey and Diagnosis of Uncle Ioe Cannon. Seeing New York Through a Megaphone, Seeing Knox Through a Megaphone, etc. :QU T is now late enough in the career of the republic to disclose the inside history of the famous political campaign of 1896 which raged with unremittiii fury at Knox College through the month of April and culminated in the election of Theodore Roosevelt. president of the United States-thus scooping the rest of the country by a cool eight years. There is not a literary society man of that period who does not look back with joy uponthis campaign. lt was a model which the country at large would do well to study carefully. lt was short. lt was furious. It was fought out upon high moral grounds, and. with a few trifling exceptions due entirely to over-en- thusiasm. in a spotless and admirable manner. No campaign pledges were made and no spoils of office were divided after the election was over. Moreover, I might add that while the affairs of the college sagged and almost stopped entirely during the last week, business throughout the nation held up without a waver and not a single factory suspended operations pending the results. Can any na- tional campaign equal this record? The details of this great campaign are well remembered. It was fought be- tween the Federal and the Republican parties. The voting public consisted of the members of the Gnothautii and Adelphi literary societies and the two bantam weight fighting clubs of the preparatory school. Zetetici and E. G. D., who had broken 3325 worth of furniture in the pursuit of oratory that spring. Republicans of the school nominated William McKinley and VVilliam Bradley of Kentucky. now Senator llradley. The Federalists nominated a man named Roosevelt and another named MeC1oughry and with this unknown material swept the Held, electing their candidates and filling VVilliam I. Bryan with a vast and gnawing envy. The nominations were made in the regulation way in conventions which were models of organization and noise. The whole city watched the furious cam paign with interest. The Chicago newspapers reported its progress from day to day. The First extra edition published in Galeshurg in years announced the re- sult. All this is history. Ask Col. Roosevelt about it the next time you see him and he will produce a copy of that extra and admit that the Knox College boys were the original Roosevelt men. Two years ago the Chamber of Commerce of Dallas, Texas, sent Harry N. Holmes, an old Knox College boy, back to Gales- burg to get the documents concerning the whole atfray. and when the president suddenly changed his plans and failed to pass through the city, the papers were mailed to him at VVashington. They now repose at Oyster Bay. Mr. Roosevelt may have some doubts as to just who is responsible for all his later glory, but he knows exactly who gave him his start. We did it with our little riot. As I have said, the public details of this election are familiar to all. It is of the inside history of which I wish to speak--the secrets that have never yet been divulged and which, after the lapse of years with all wounds healed, it will not K N O X conuzcn 131 G B O R G I F I T C H K N OX course 132 G E O R G E F I T C H THE GALE NINETEEN-TEN be breaking faith to ventilate. There was a suspicion at the time that the Demo- crats got up the Federal party and wheedled the younger and more scatter- brained Republicans of the college into it by manipulating the platform in a man- ner well known to all politicians. This is not true. lt was organized by Repub- licans in search of excitement. It was the first protest against blind party fealty -an acorn of independence which never stopped growing until it triumphantly elected Roosevelt in 1904. Of course, we didn't realize all this at the time, but in the light of subsequent events, who is there to dispute our claims? The campaign was organized in an effort to bind up the breach which ex- isted between the two literary societies of the college. This breach had existed in a wider or narrower form since the fifties. At that time it was particularly wide because of a habit the Adelphians had of slipping into the washroom of the Gnothautii hall during meeting and blowing into the gas jet until the pipes were full of sophomoric wind instead of illuminating gas and exercises had to be sus- pended above. This led to recriminations, reprisals, and the total suspension of diplomatic relations and the campaign was finally planned as a means of linking the two societies more firmly together. The preps were invited in order to swell the body politic. At this time the proportion of Republicans to Democrats in Knox was about 10 to 1. It was generally supposed that the campaign would consist of a model convention at which William McKinley would be nominated according to Hoyle and Mark Hanna and that what interest there would be would come merely in doing the job in as close an imitation of the real thing as possible. This was emi- nently satisfactory to the leading Republicans and while not so satisfactory to the Democrats. they were not in a position to object. It was Frank I-T. Holmes, better known in college as Seldom Holmes. who started the trouble. On his way home that night he reasoned that a new partv would have three beneiieial effects. First, it would inject some interest into pro- ceedings. Second, it would give us a new excuse for Flunking in chemistry- something that was sadly needed at the time. Third, it would make Pat Car- diff, high priest of the Republicans in college. madder than anything else we could do. Cardiff was steward of our boarding club, and the favorite pastime at the club was to bet desserts. We had accumulated seven prospective pieces of blueberry pie bv iudicious plunging on the yacht races. when Cardiff suddenlv cut blueberry pie ol? the menu on account of the increased cost. This had infuri- ated us and we yearned for revenge. As Holmes' roommate and inveterate accomplice I agreed, though we were both life long Republicans and expected to vote in a few years. The result was that two mornings afterwards the Federal pa rtv -was formed in the rooms of Giles Clayberg and Jungle Reilly. There were eight conspirators. Presson W. Thomson embraced the idea with enthusiasm. He was a Democrat. It was con- genital and he had no hope of recovery. He saw in the new party a chance to massacre his hereditary foe. Will Mather Lewis, who at that time reigned as King of the preps, took to the plan because it sounded like trouble, which was his THE GALE NINETEEN-TEN favorite diet. Clayberg and Reilly joined because they foresaw great good in the prospective excitement for the literary societies which they never attended. Charles lfarnum and Dick O'l..eary were willing to join anything that would re- lieve the deadly monotony of a college life enlivened only by baseball, track meets, class fights, fraternity rows and campus plots. Never was a party more quickly organized. ln ten minutes it had been christened the liederal party. ln ten minutes more a platform had been adopted. lt both favored and denounced free silver which apparently difficult feat was solved by Thomson and Clayberg in a plank which declared for a currency safe, sound and llexible, free, independent and sensible. Then came the question of candidates. There was a copy of the Review of Reviews handy. lt contained a picture of Theodore Roosevelt, at that time commissioner of police in New York. lle was just the man. llc was a reformer. He was not well enough known to be distinguished as a Republican or a Democrat by the masses. He was a young man and opposed to bossism. Besides, as official cartoonist, l had discovered that his eye glasses and his smile could be reproduced by even a rank amateur with telling effect. So he was chosen. Warden McC1oughry, now of the Leavenworth penitentiary, was chosen candidate for vice president, for the same reason that all vice presidential candidates are chosen-because no one in the world would think of electing him president. The party was born, the platform built, the candidates chosen. It remained to amalgamate the voters and to snare the independents. There were several of these. Chandler, of Coffeyville, Kansas, was a populist. We got him 011 the flex- ible end of the free silver plank. lsaac J. Dobobes-Franklin, Russian and enemy of the Czar, embraced the movement eagerly. lt smelled of revolt. The Prohi- bitionists were suspicious but lfarnum held out to them a prohibition plank and they came in-all but Ralph Torrey Edwards, now a missionary in the Philippines. Edwards watched his party go away from him with indifference. He held a con- vention of his own, nominated his ticket, fought his own campaign and cast the only prohibition vote in the election in solitary dignity. The Democrats came in a body, eager for trouble. Bill Lewis' oleaginous blarney corralled most of the preps. Then we went after the Republicans. Up to this time everything had been done in secret, but now Cardiff, our arch enemy, awoke to find himself the chieftain of a vanishing party. At this point the campaign opened with a bang. Cardiff was no poor Fighter. In a day he had swung the entire Republican organization of the city to his sup- port. In another day he had persuaded John R. Tanner, who was about to be nom- nated for Governor, to come to the college and address a Republican rally. He collected funds and hired a band. He got out hand bills. He formed a Repub- lican club and enlisted as many professors as he could in its ranks. War was on. Cardiff's only mistake was in coming around to Holmes and pleading with him not to let Thomson lead ns astray. That hardened traitor listened with vis- ible concern and that night annexed three more Republican freshmen to the cause. K N 0 X COLLEGE 133 G E O R G E F I T C H K N O X counzcs 134 G E O R G E F I T C H THE GALE NINETEEN-TEN The two conventions were held on succeeding nights. The Federal conven- tion was the loudest by several wnoops. it was held in Alumni l-lall and every state was represented. 1 do not recall UIC ofiicers of UIC convention, but l remem- ber that Holmes wrote the telegram from Roosevelt accepting the nomination and that it was received with shrieks of enthusiasm by the meeting. We had to do this because the Republicans on tne night before had actually telegraphed nlclxin- ley and had secured his acceptance. However, Wltll telegraph tolls to pay, nic- Rmley s telegram was SIIOYI, while Roosevelt's was a masterpiece of invective and enthusiasm. we made sevelal votes by it and thanked the other side for the lLlC2l.. There was a week left berore the election. The Republican rally was SCIICLI' uled for the 1'lllLlLllC of the week. lt was a serious tlnng for us. The whole city was to attend. We had no speakers and no brass band, but the next evemng we met in Thomson s room and beiore we left we lllltl a newspaper. This newspaper was called 1110 1'CtLCI'tlllSf. it was a four-page affair, wiit- ten out neatly oy a mnneograpn and lllLl5lll'2,llCCtl Wltll cartoons. 1.1101118011 was editor and compositor. Lewis was poet. 1 was artist and reporter. lelolmes, ljritt and Reilly were backers and COllSLllllllg' editors. Ulseary was devil. lfarnum was foreign correspondent. We primed one hundred copies that night and distributed them in chapel the next morning. the nextnight we increased it to two hundred and the next to three hundred. liew newspapers can show a growth like that. For the rest of the campaign The Federalist occupied our attention. The other side raved but they had no mimeograph. Their big rally was held. lt was a frosty affair. The rirst newspaper assignment l ever covered was the wiiting of that convention at midnight, while ljill Lewis perspired over a verse in one corner, and in the other 'Thomson and Ulseary gazed with wild indignation at a mimcograph sheet which had broken after the first copy and would have to be re- written, thus delaying the edition two hours. During the last two days, the campaign became desperate. Every society member was a marked man. l.'oliticians pled with him, tempted him and bullied him. The preps were especially popular. They were a homogenous bunch and did not hold their votes lightly. In an unguarded moment a prominent Repub- lican referred to the preps as kids, That settled it. For three mornings The Federalist addressed the preps as men, reminding them that on their actions rested the fate of the nation and the result was the capture of the whole delega- tion. With the last few days the rush to the literary societies became gratifying. Only members in good standing with all dues paid could vote. An investigation developed the fact that only a few of us were eligible to vote and a grand scram- ble to pay up began. Men who had not sat in the sacred halls for two years, came around and squared their accounts. Indifferent voters were urged to pay their lines and dues. Each side raised a campaign fund and advanced money to de- linquents who had not heard from home recently. Never had there been such prosperity in the literary societies. The treasurers wallowed in cash. Scornful THE GALE NINETEEN-TEN society butterflies who had spurned the societies in their pursuit of pleasure. hammered at the doors for admittance. Wild tales of fraud and of secret changes of the rolls began to Hy about. Amos Townsend appeared with a Gnothautii badge and, on being questioned, fell down miserably in his attempt to pronounce the name. One man who had been suspended for three years and who owed up- wards of 31000, borrowed the money and sat in meeting for the first time the night before election. Over forty members were restored to good standing and many more were admitted. I grieve to say that we admitted them first and then informed them sadly, but firmly, that they werenlt eligible in this particular elec- tion but that other excitement would doubtless follow. The morning of the election dawned amid terrific excitement. Roth sides were suspicious. There was a rumor that the Republicans had raised a fund of 3100.00 with the assistance of the city central committee, and were prepared to bail out delinquents in scores. We ourselves were accused of divers villainies. During the day, every wavering voter was the center of a struggling mass of workers. The election began at 8 o'clock in Adelphi Hall and members of the football team were challengers. For two hours, a shouting mob struggled and perspired and voted. Both sides used carriages. One set of Republican con- spirators locked up a prep in a closet in the old east bricks and he might have smothered had not a crowd of Fcderals rescued him and rushed him triumphantly to the polls. It took two hours and twenty lights to- count the ballots. Suspense curdled the atmosphere until midnight. Then the result was announced. It was: Roosevelt '71, McKinley 58. For lack of space, I cannot dwell on the celebration which followed, nor of how by breaking into the High School building and getting a larger mimeograph. we got out a double sized edition of The Federalist with a rooster on it at 5:00 a. m. I cannot even reproduce the editorial blunders which helped win the battle. I cannot even guarantee the absolute accuracy of all this information, but it is certain that nothing in the way of politics that year attracted more attention in Galesburg than the mock campaign in the Spring-not even the real thing in the Autumn.

This has been the result of the co-operation of the trustees and faculty and the students. Athletics have intentionally been given a large place in college ac- tivities because athletics have great possibilities in them for student development. Apart from the physical side, athletics discipline the mind and body and give young men that mastery of themselves that is so indispensible in later life. Quick- ness of thought, decision, judgment and will power are all demanded. Team play gives that sense of inter-dependence and co-operation which is of practical value. Track wo1'k develops self-reliance. Competition calls forth not simply the utmost that a man has of strength or ability, but also that sense of fairness and respect for other's rights which should mark the college man. In brief, the ideal of Knox athletics is not so much success in competition as it is success in self mastery-not to win but to strive in a manly fashion and take defeat or victory in good spirit. Athletics for everybody is another characteristic of the Knox spirit. lt is not enough to develop a team and give its members training efficiency, but all should share in its advantages. It is not enough to stand on the side lines. Every- body is expected to get in the game. Practically all the students in College. Academy, and Conservatory have taken advantage of our splendid new gymnas- ium, either by taking part in the regular gymnasium classes or in class basket ball games. Three fine tennis courts have been laid out and have been in constant use during good weather. Class games in football and baseball have widened the benefits of athletics by giving a chance to those unable to make the regular teams. Knox students are not unappreciative of what has been done to encourage athletics. Inspired by the example of Coach Towne in their love for fair play and manly conduct, and constrained by the pervasive influence of Dean Willard. Knox athletics to-day maintain that athletic spirit.which develops men who will tight to the last ditch without the loss of honor, self-control or self-respect. The Knox spirit of athletics thus seems to develop strength of character as much as strength of body so the Knox man may be equipped for the battle of life.

Six K men reported for practice at the start, and on the squad were several freshmen who pos- sessed football possibilities. The only three men weighing over 165 pounds were in this latter class and two of these had to be taught the rudiments of the game as well as to be drilled into the Knox machine. This took time, patience. and much gruelling work for both Coach Towne and the team-and all in the face of most discouraging circum- stances. That the eleven made the brilliant finish it did was due to the indomitable will of the coach and the final rousing of the old Knox spirit that infused the college and the team to a degree that made defeat well nigh impos- sible. The schedule on the opposite page tells the story of games won and lost. Those taken by Millikin and lieloit T were bitter defeats because in each case Knox lost by the merest of fiukes after having out-played their opponents at straight football. But, it's all in the gamefl the boys said, and went back after more with the same fighting spirit. The set up given the eleven when they left for lleloit was enough to satisfy even l-larry Merritt Towne, and had its effect in the plucky battle fought the next day. The Monmouth game was on VVillard Field, was attended by a tremendous and en- thusiastic crowd, and by many was declared to have been one of the fastest games ever played by a Knox eleven. Although the score of the Lombard game, 0 to 0, was a disappointment, the fight made by the team that day was worthy of Knox. ' Of the individual men, first honors go to Captain Scammon. Scam scored more points than any other player and besides playing a hard, consistent game himself, bore with credit the difficult position of captain. Aside from his regular work as fullback he shone as place kicker, making points in this manner when it seemed impossible to score in any other way. As quarterback By West showed that he is still developing in the game and when the season was over had landed an end position on the All-Illinois College eleven. His valne to the Knox team cannot be over-estimated. Leland Swanson, captain-elect, won his position by putting up throughout the season one of the finest games at center ever seen on a Knox eleven. Heavy, fast, plucky and heady, he was one of the mainstays of the team. Gamble, Gebhart and Noble played the halves during the season and played them well. Gamble has played his last game for Knox, but Gebhart and Noble still have two years ahead of them. Herbl' Miller, Gamble and Judy on the ends kept this important department up to the standard of the rest of the w. emu. SCAMMON CAPTAIN 'vnsrrv steven, 1908 THE GALE NINETEEN-TEN team. Miller frequently distinguished himself by brilliant runs and llying tackles. while Judy was invaluable in his tackling behind the line. Barclay and Holmes at guard gave to the line the stability and resisting power that at times was the best feature of the game. Both are hard, consistent workers and have promising futures ahead of them. Harry Smith undoubtedly was one of the best all-round men on the team. His work at tackle was strong at all times, but especially so towards the end of the season. Also, he is a sure punter and in both the Mon- mouth and Lombard games this ability was used to advantage. Giddings, who played the other tackle, filled his position like a veteran. His weight and speed made him a deadly line plunger, and his defensive work was always good. No single factor contributed more to the success of the season than did the efficient work of Manager Earle R. Bridge. From the hnancial standpoint, and from that of the coach and players, Bridges work was unusually well done. Robert J. Bender was a capable assistant and will manage the eleven for 1909. The work of Coach Towne cannot be spoken of too highly. Coming to Knox when football had been dead a year, he has worked up two creditable teams in the face of unusual difficulties. Early in the season he had J. A. Anderson, an old Chicago star, down to help him with the line men, and between the two a stone wall defense was developed for Knox. Coach Towne stands uncompromisingly for clean, manly athletics. and upon the foundations he is laying now, Knox sports for years to come will rest squarely and securely.

To be pounded around in the dirt night after night by men of greater weight and superior training, to come in heavy on the drudgery of the game. and light for the glory of it-to be the under dog, is no fun. The scrubs this year did all of this, and the splendid Finish made by the 'varsity was in no small share due to the training given them by the seconds. Captain Ingersoll, Anderson, joy, and Springer at times were on the hrst team squad, their work being particularly strong. The schedule below shows that the scrubs this year were real players, and in the games played they found some of their reward for the season's bucking against the 'varsity.

THE GALE NINETEEN-TEN BASKET BALL f NOX has cause this year to be proud of her basket ball A team. With a record of nine victories and four de- feats by margins of only one, two, live, and six points, we are able to form some estimate of what the team has done. Only one of the seven games on the home fiom- was lost, that being to Parsons by two points. A clean sweep was made of the Lombard, Y. M. C. A., and Eureka series, while in the llflonmouth series Knox lost by one point at Mon- mouth, in the home game Knox more than made it good by taking Monmouth's measure to the tune of 27 to 9. No games were played with the upstate colleges, but from fig- ures obtainable .Knox is justified in her claim of second place for state championship. The game this year was played using the whole length of the gym. This added to the development of team Work, and made the game more interesting and spectacular for the spectator. The game has taken a firm hold on the student body, and is proving very popular. A large number of candidates tried for places on the team and this added much to the development of a splendid team. In speaking of the individual work of the players, we come to a hard task. for the reason that team work has been the great feature of the season's work. No one player tried to make himself conspicuous in the play, but each added his quota to the game, and the result was splendid team work. Captain Noble, playing at right forward, proved himself a worthy general. Al- ways a great factor in the team work, and in throwing difficult goals, he has con- tributed much to the success of the team. Pfeiffer, left forward, proved a fast and accurate goal thrower, and always gave his guard plenty to do to follow him. Prince at center did great work, holding his own against the best centers in the state. He has a deadly accurate eye from the foul line and gets his share of the field goals. Heubner, left guard, plays a consistently strong game, The feature of his playing is getting the ball from the opponents and starting team work. Aldrich, right guard, has without a doulgt been the star of the team. llis great reach and height and his speed have made him an extra good guard. ln seven games of the season he did not allow his forward a goal. McCulloch, alternating at guard and forward, put up a strong game, being speedy and accurate in throwing the ball. Sanborn, utility man, has put up a good game and should make a regular berth next year. In a great measure the success of the season is due to Coach Towne, whose hard work and careful training did muc'h to keep the men in shape. Besides play- ing one of the strongest games of the tive, Ben Heubner very successfully man- RALNIM.NOHlE CAPTAIN 'vausnv Fivz 1909 K N OX COLLEGE 145 A T H L E T I C S K N O X COLLEGE 146 A T H L E T I C S TI-IE GALE NINETEEN-TEN aged the team at the end of the season and was awarded a manager's as well as a playerls K, With the team returning entire again next year, a most success- ful season may be looked forward to.

The call was accompanied by the suggestion that no loafing in any shape or form would be tolerated, and the statement that there were several positions open, giving new men good chances if they got out and hustled. About fifty men responded to the call and for several weeks indoor and outdoor practice was general and strenuous. Shortly before the spring vacation all but eighteen of the aspirants were relegated to class teams, and the favorite in the race ordered to report on the Thursday of vacation week. The eighteen soon discovered that the Coach had developed a system that gives every man a Cll21llCC to work as hard as he chooses. On April lst several men were fooled when the first squad finally was picked, and the next day the season opened with a close game against llurlington, the college losing by a two to one score. On the night of the tith the team left for the southern trip, losing to St. Louis Univer- sity next day on a fiuke. Three more games were dropped, and the team returned with more experience than victories. At this stage of the game several second team men saw the light for a brief space of time, and Booth and McCulloch developed into valuable men. Lombard was defeated next by Molly's peerless twirling, and this was followed by a victory over Monmouth, the red and White being taken into camp in a two to one fifteen inning game, one of the best college games of the season. After more practice against the local team of the I. and M. League, Iowa Wfesleyan went down before Mettler in a thirteen inning contest ending in a score of three to two. At this writing the team is in splendid shape, and the prospects are for gilt-edged ball for the rest of the season. Mettler has developed into one of the best pitchers Knox has had for a long time. lele has a good head, fields his position well, and in every respect is an able captain for the team. His hitting has been heavy and when he lands it is usually for more than one sack. Supporting him in the box are Anderson and West. They are little, but oh my. Wlieii not on the slab, Anderson holds down second or one of the gardens, alternating with Vtfest. Grant has been playing a fast game at third, and is handy with the stick. McCullouch is a star at short, and ought to develop into an unusually valuable man in the two years left him. Lillie and Booth take care of first and backstop, and both are good. ln the field, Noble gets everything coming his way, and frequently cuts off men with his mighty whip. Cully Aldrich plays right and is prominent with the willow. McClure has CLAYTON METTLER CAPTAlN'VARSlTY NINE 1909 KNOX COLLEGE ..Il5W, A T H L E T I C S K.

Manager Gault, also, is in the game and is as capable of clouting the horsehide as he is of handling the money. Although it is far too early to consider the season as a whole, yet it may be said that the team seems to be well up to Knox standards, which is going some. The crowds at the home games have been large and enthusiastic, and from the standpoint of clean sport enjoyed by the whole of the student body, the season already is a success.

Already the Iirst two meets have been won and in the three that yet remain the team will do its best to win vic- fr tory for Old Knox. Probably the hardest fought meet will be the one at Peoria, in which the eleven leading colleges of this section of the country will compete. Knox won this meet last year, thus winning the college championship of Illinois. The team is well balanced this year and should again winthis meet, which is the largest college meet in the middle west. With the exception of one man, all of last year's team are or1 the team this year. I-linchliff and Miller. who won everything in the hurdles last year, are in a fair way to do the same this season. Smith, in the weights, is doing better than ever before, so that we need have no fear of losing in these events. In the mile, VVillard is showing up exceptionally well, while in the half-mile Crafton is the strongest man in school. Gates and Crafton are running the quarter better than it has been ru11 at Knox for several years. The dashes are run by Gates and Eaton. In the high jump, Lawton and Sauter are showing up well, while in the pole vault Palmer can be counted on to win a place. Gates is doing the best work in the running broad jump. The two meets which have already been won are the ones with William and Vashti College at Aledo and the triangular meet between Knox, Momnouth, and Beloit at Monmouth. The meets which remain are the triangular meet be- tween Knox, Monmouth, and Armour, the dual meet with Illinois Wesleyan at Bloomington, and the state Conference meet at Peoria. Captain McClelland has gotten more work out of his men this spring than is usual at Knox, and the exceptionally good showing made by the team is, in great part, due to his excellent leadership. Coach Towne, who has direct super- vision of the training for the different events, is an expert in this department of his work and is developing his men along the right lines. Sigvarcl B. Nelson has made a most efficient manager, and has secured a schedule which makes track work this spring very attractive. . I I-I li track season this year has opened very auspiciously. .

XrVhiIe the students are favored with a fine building, well equipped in all particulars. and have to a certain extent been allotted stated hours for use of the same, yet the work is greatly hindered in two ways: first, because the college schedule will not permit of class drillg second, because the work has not been made compulsory. The first trouble is one that it is hoped may be remedied in the near future. There is nothing that will bring such good results in athletics as class competition. A strong healthy class rivalry in gymnasium work would insure a fine indoor ex- hibition. The second fault can be easily remedied whenever the college authorities so vote. If the gymnasium work was of long standing there would be little opposi- tion, it would be accepted as one of the requirements. Until it has been sanc- tioned by time, it must receive the hearty support of both students and faculty to be successful. To the students taking the work the past year, the beneficial results can hardly be overestimated. The improved physical condition of many of the men is plainly visible to the causual observer. Those who have been faithful in at- tendance are the ones who show the greatest improvement and likewise are the persons who to-day show a little enthusiasm for the work. The director would like to see a running track placed in the gymnasium and the men have a choice between track and class work, either one when elected to be compulsory. A leader's class should be organized to meet at least one night each week. These men should assist the instructor in the class work. From this leader's class would naturally spring a gymnasium club, comprised of the best gymnasts in college. In two years' time it would then be possible to have student assistants who, in return for their work, should receive some recognition from the college. This system of work, with the offering by the college of a shield or banner as a trophy to the winning class, would in a very short time create an interest in the work both wholesome and helpful. The gymnasium work can be made most pleasing to the students by a healthy, stimulating class spirit and a hearty support of the work by the college authorities.

To get a Freshman-Sophomore scrap, first catch your classes.
