Text from Pages 1 - 228 of the 1910 volume: “
The Gravel Hill Come out with me to the Gravel Hill When the gay new blossom blows, And see how the beauty of God doth fill The heart of each thing that grows. The bluebird flits to his wooing mate Atilt on the dogwood bough, And the farmer joys at the garden gate For the nurturing wind on his brow. There ' s a prayerful note in the song I hear Of the robin again come back, And life and love begin to appear In the smallest insect ' s track. And the shooting blade at the boulder ' s side Proclaims with its mystic might, A blessedness moving far and wide Under the sod in the night. Oh, a peace for all in the town below Abides in this hill-top green, And all who seek for it well may know ' T is the peace of God I ween. Then up to the hill, O weary of earth. And up to the hill, O sad, And learn from the God of all infinite worth The secrets that make life glad. Norman C. Schlichler, ' 97. THE BIZARRE VOL XI PUBLISHED BY THE JUNIOR CLASS OF LEBANON VALLEY COLLEGE 1910 OUR ESTEEMED INSTRUCTOR JOHN SMITH SHIPPEE EFFICIENT PROFESSOR AND PROFOUND SCHOLAR, AS A SLIGHT TOKEN OF APPRECIATION FOR ONE WHOSE INTELLIGENT AND KINDLY EFFORTS IN INSTILLING US WITH AN AFFECTIONATE REGARD FOR HIMSELF AND HIGHER IDEALS OF LIFE ARE NOT FORGOTTEN, IS THIS THE BIZARRE OF igio RESPECTFULLY DEDICATED Professor John Smith Shippee ROFESSOR JOHN S. SHIPPEE, the oldest of six children, was born in East Greenwich, Rhode Island, January 9, 1871. Both his father and mother are decendants of families settled in Rhode Island since the early days of the colony. The pioneer of the family, David Shippee, who was married in the colony in 1664, came from Maidfield, England. Professor Shippee is the eighth in direct descent from him. An ancestor of his mother, a certain Major Adams, fought in the Revolutionary War. Thus Professor Shippee has in his veins the blood of generations of the hardy men and women of New England. His father, by his daily life, set before him an example of kindness, patience, justice, and untiring energy. Men of his frank and unselfish character are rare. From his mother he never failed to receive sympathy and inspiration; and her earnest desire for his success in life has always been a powerful incentive to him to do his best. No man was ever blessed with a better or more generous father and mother. Professor Shippee ' s early education was received in the town in which he was born. When ' he was fifteen years old, he began the college preparatory course in the East Greenwich Academy, a co-educational school, of the typical New England sort, founded in 1802. From his early days he had shown a great fondness for books and reading, implanted and fostered by his mother. During his years at the academy, he read widely in English literature, giving his mind breadth in addition to the accuracy derived from careful training in Latin and Greek. In 1890 he entered Brown University as a freshman. E. Benjamin Andrews had become president of the college the year before and under his broad-minded and vigorous administration it took on new life, and in a short time grew to almost twice its former size. Professor Shippee devoted himself especially to literature and languages. Two of his teachers are known throughout the United States from their text-books, Albert Harkness and Charles E. Bennett. In his fourth year Pro- fessor Shippee was elected to membership in the Phi Beta Kappa fraternitj ; this society is composed of honor men, men who have had the highest standing through- out their course and membership in it is highly prized by students. He also won a Latin prize in his fourth year. Upon receiving his degree, ill 1894, he was made assistant in English in Brown University for the following year. At the end of this year he was appointed In- structor in Latin in the same college, a position which he held until 1902. His associations with his students in Brown were always very pleasant. It was especi- ally during these years that his formative training in the teaching profession was received. His class work did not, however, take all his time, but permitted him to do much advanced study. In 1902 he became instructor of Latin and Greek in the Ohio Military Institute, Cincinnati. His work there was difficult and exhausting owing to disorganization and lack of dicipline in the school. While many of the cadets living in the school were idle and lawless, those whose homes were in College Hill, where the school was situated, were studious, sincere and courteous. In 1906 came his appointment as Professor of Latin and French in Lebanon Valley College. Professor Shippee found the college situated in a small, straggling town lying in an extremely beautiful valley. On all sides stretch rich, green, roll- ing fields; in the distance, north and south, lie mountains hemming the valley in. The fair surroundings add not a little charm to the busy intellectual life of the students and faculty. The summer of 1908 was spent in travel and study. Landing in Glasgow, Pro- fessor Shippee vir.ited the beautiful lakes in Scotland, stayed a short time in Stirl- ing and Edinburg, and then went to London, visiting Abbotsford and several cathe- dral towns on his way. After a short stay in Paris, he went to Grenoble, a pleasant city in the midst of the beautiful French Alps. He took a course of advanced study in the old university in Grenoble, and from time to time he visited places of historic and literary interest. His work in Lebanon Valley has proved successful and interesting; that this is so, is mainly due to the students who have taken his courses and who, by their zealous interest and hard work, have made the subjects yield good fruit. It has always been a pleasure to him to meet them and to work with the n — all — freshmen, sophomores, juniors and seniors. As time has passed by and he has learned to know them, they have shown him how faithful and loyal they can be. Teaching them is not a task but a pleasure. This has been especially true of the class of 1910. FOREWORD S FROM the extravagant youthful castles of Spain emanate the more expedient ideals of a later development — in us, that of college life and idealism, — so in childhood we presumpt- uously believed our capabilties equal to the most arduous tasks; in this, our junior year, we sincerely confess to our ignorance and inefficiency. Our avowed purpose in publishing this volume is to please. Kind reader, we offer you the humble results of of our best efforts after days and weeks of incessant and unremitting toil. May we hope that in the after years this book will serve as a re- membrance of the flush and buoyancy of youth, of ideals realized, of the hopes and fears of life in the eternal springtime — if it but please, we shall be abundantly repaid.

With a feeling of pride we draw back the curtain to let others see what we have been, what we are, and what we hope to be. In gazing upon our Freshman year, we would kindly ask you to hasten, lose no time here, but quickly glance at the numerals on the smokestack, and then pass on. The rest that you would see would be trembling Freshmen, with slates under their arms, going to recite their lessons to the awe-inspiring professors. Now you may look upon us again for we have shed our swaddling clothes and have put on the garments of the Wise Sophs. The class of 190S neglected to dis- infect them before they let them fall upon us, so we, unfortunately, had a slight at- tack of the disease, commonly called. Swelled Heads, from which they were just recovering. It was very slight, however, and we overcame it so as to win the Fresh- man vs. Sophomore debate. We also enjoyed in our Sophomore year a delicious banquet and splendid time at Wernersville. When all the professors agreed that our heads had diminished and that we could again wear hats of normal size, we were permitted to affix to our names Jr. We thought that now since our heads had lessened, surely our work would diminish in the same proportion and we could laugh and play all day long from early morn until 10 o ' clock P. M. This was a great mistake for we were just begin- ning to learn what work meant. We only commenced in this year to delve into the depths of the studies we had had a taste of in the previous year, such as Mathe- matics, Chemistry, Astronomy, Biology, Philosophy — we could keep on enumerating but we have mentioned enough to show you that our dreams -were shattered. And where were the jolly Juniors, they sing about in rhyme? There was ' nt a jolly Junior to be found for a long time. For they made us work and study ' till our faces thinner grew And all our ruddy color had changed to a paler hue. But one fine day a doctor, with face and thought so wise, Said if we weren ' t let up on we ' d all mount to the skies, And then they lessened our hardships and gave us a chance to play, And we grew ruddy, healthy and happy, jolly and plump and gay. Now we are drawing near to the close of our great career and the faculty ap- provingly pat us on the back, an d say, good! Under-class men stare in open- mouthed admiration and whisper in awed tones, Will we grow up to be like that? and old fogies shake their white locks and say, It might have been. I cannot vouch for the truth of the last statement, however, for that one is just hear-say. We have passed the time when our class-rooms are perfect dens of tortures; professors hard-hearted tyrants; and books, the pest of our lives, and have at- tained to our present enlightened condition when the college is our dear old Alma Mater; professors, our patient benefactors; and books — Well! Books are some- times used as Wurf-waffen. We give a last glance of fare-well to the class rooms, the chapel, and the halls through which our footsteps used to resound. Perhaps a lump will rise in our throats when we come back again and see our places taken by others and realize, that we no longer have a share where once we held undisputed sway. —39 — 1909 Class Poem Through L. Vs. halls we ' ve come and gone With shouts of glee and merry song, And in four years of college work Our duties we ' ve ne ' er tried to shirk. As Freshmen were always true And learned our lessons to pursue, But frequently we heard a rap ' Twas the awful Death League tap! tap! tap! Submission was the only way That we might later hold full sway. ' Twas realized in Soph ' more year When Freshmen shrank with dreadful fear, While we applied with wondrous snap The same old tap of the Death League rap. In class meets we were ever fair, And our defeats in truth were rare. With dauutless will and courage too Our Junior work did we pursue. Success we surely did attain, For did the stage not bring us fame? In like manner our annual Has been an unequaled model. By toil and strife and not all ease, We claim our share of victories. Though jubilant because of these We ' d not forget our romances. Two times we see, a lass and swain Fall victims of love ' s arduous claim. Now as we near commencement day With one accord we all say aye, That our success we view with pride And hope honors with us abide. As now we come to bid adieu To those dear halls we love so true, ' Though sad, yet hopeful we will go Into real life our worth to show. When hard the task and zeal runs low We ' ll ne ' er forget our brave motto, Our view on this, our race we ' ll run Semper Cupidi ad Summum .

Teddy Bear as he is called came to col- lege animated with visions of future re- nown which he formulated in his moments of reverie while teaching in a little country school house snugly situated in the moun- tains of Mifflin county. He was born at Lewistown but in early life moved to Belle- ville where he received his public school education. At college he first impressed the fact of his presence by remorselessly holding a soph fast against the sod during the color rush. Spurred on by this success- ful show of valor he tried to become a foot ball star but proved to be only a partial suc- cess. Teddy is an assiduous student. He has many progressive ideas and always lends a ready voice to aid any proposed improve- ments. To his credit it must be said that in mingling with the fair sex he has had only one affaire de coeur which however was always more of a reality than an evi- dence. Mervin R. Fleming, York, Pa. Mervin, born 1886, spent a few years of his early life in Newchester, then went to York, his present home. He is the busiest man in the class, so absorbed does he be- come in his work he scarcely finds time to eat his meals. Besides his regular school work he prepares two or three sermons for the various congregations over which he presides. Mervin has the coveted power of concentration and can prepare his recita- tions in half the time it takes most fellows. He is a man of profound intellectual powers, a clean thinker and a forceful speaker, and is well qualified for the profession he has chosen. He will not be satisfied until he has takan a seminary course in some promi- nent theological school. Mervin ' s interests in real estate is not wholly incidental, for it has been reported that he is looking for a beautiful spot in which to begin his future career of wedded happiness. Edith Nissley Freed, Hershey, Pa. Miss Freed enjoys the distinction of be- ing the prettiest girl in our class. She attri- butes her beauty to the qualities of Her- shey ' s chocolates, for she is a resident of Hershey. Dith was born 1888, is a graduate from Lebanon High School. Of the many fields of activity in which she is interested, there is none she enjoys better than the fields of clover, for she shows a marked pro- pensity for walking. This trait is so strongly developed that in her sophomore year she was induced to stroll leisurely beyond the campus with a freshie, in spite of all the college rules. Dith has always been inter- ested in class matters, has held numerous offices, and was manager of our Freshman A ' it Foot Ball team. While Miss Freed claims to be preparing for the pedagogical profes- sion, we all believe that after graduating she will just continue walking — in a more extended field. We wish them well. I E. Myrtle Garrett, Hummelstown, Pa. Miss Myrtle Garrett comes to us from Hummelstown, where she has always lived, in preference to any other place on earth. In fact it is the place. But after graduating from the High School she decided to try and satisfy her ambition by taking a course at L. V. C. and we are glad to say she is fast approaching her goal, for Myrtle is a good student, and always knows her lessons. However she is not a book-worm but en- joys a good time and a good laugh or giggle. Her greatest fault is jollying, a sport which she even tries with the Profs sometimes. But with all this Myrtle is quite serious at times and we should not be surprised to hear soon after she leaves school that she has become the helpmate of a certain Methodist ecclesiastic, for she dearly loves parish work. Myrtle was born —43- Wilbur E. Harnish, Mechanicsburg, Pa. Abner inherited his father ' s name willy-nilly as both of his christian dub- bings are ill adapted to his nature. He was born 18S6 and reared in Mechanicsburg, where he has always lived and which place he says with an insinuating smile is a part of God ' s country. He is an indispensable member of his class; with parliamentary rules at his ton gue ' s end he knows exactly when to lise to a point of order. It is Abner ' s great love for a heated logomachy which has won for him first rank among our college debaters. He hopes at some day to be one of the foremost barristers of the country. Besides this ambition one of his fond expectations is to attend a big wedding at Lebanon where he will not be an invited guest, but after which as he says he •will have did his duty to the state. John Edward Jacoby, York, Pa. Jack as this young man is commonly known was born and reared in York, which he claims accounts for his epicurean tastes and his keen appreciation of gocd cigars. One of his greatest delights is a peaceful smoke after a good stomach stretching. His one room is equipped with a full line of kitchen utensils, bed, and library all ar- ranged with the especial purpose of having things handy. He is passionately fond of good literature and from the first has won the admiration of the faculty by his erudite personality. His marked ability as a writer fitted him well for the editorship of this book. Jack is very opinionative and main- tains his opinions with convincing earnest- ess. He claims that laboratory work is a waste of time, and while he is very fond of the fair sex, he strives to disbelieve it and looks to the bachelor man of letters as his ideal. He expects to win his doctor ' s de- gree at Harvard. Fillmore Thurman Kohler Yoe, Pa. Fillmore better known as Peepie, hails from the beautiful town of Yoe, where he was born 1887 and where he learned cigar making, as well as the chicken raising busi- ness. When he had mastered the above profession he began his preparation for the ministry. After graduating with honors from the Yoe high school, he took a di- ploma from the York Collegiate Institute, from which place he entered the sophomore class at Lebanon Valley College. His spare time is spent in studying biology and elocu- tion. He was the founder of the Dormitory Fire Department, and gave the fellows the privilege of throwing water on him so that they would have practice should a fire ever occur. He is small in stature, and modest in look; but large in heart, and mischievous in conduct. The Hebrew type is his ideal in the business world, and for this reason it is that he is so successful in the art of ' honsw- oggling. Mary Blanche Musser Mountville, Pa. Mary was born 1887 in Mountville, a sub- urb of Lancaster and the garden spot of the eaith, so Mary says. She graduated at Co- lumbia High School class of ' 06. Having always had a desire to go to college and then become somebody great, she thought to put up her tent at Lebanon Valley. Mary distinguished herself when she came here by becoming a member of the knocker ' s club and she has filled several prominent offices in that club during the past three years. In addition to this she has received the titles of Prof and Cop, which are considered a rare treat around here. So you see this young person is on a fair way to- ward the House of Fame. Although a lit- erary student, Mary also has a talent for music, and we hope to hear some day that she is the world ' s great prima donna. If she fails in this she will become a lect- urer on Woman ' s Rights. Charles William Plummer Hagerstown, Md. On the nth of Aug. 1887 a thunder storm passed over Hagerstown, Md. After the noise of the storm had abated, a shrill cry was heard. This was the first notice this world had of the arrival of Charles W. Plum- mer. Even since that time he has had a peculiar way of informing people that he is existing. He has a decidedly determined southern dialect, each sentence of which begins with Sam Hill! Charles says he will enter the ministry if the people will not laugh too loud when he tries to preach. His two hobbies will be preaching on eternal punishment and per- sonal work with the younger portion of his female parishoners. Charles is a strong advocate of college spirit, and spends much of his time trying to keep things moving around this old joint. His favorite studies are French and mathematics, in which he is a brilliant student. Wilbur Clayton Plummer Hagerstown, Md. After a prolonged menial discussion as to which class claimed the greatest number of men he would thrash, this bright-eyed specimen of Maryland ' s manhood decided to join 1910 in the sophomore year, and has been thrashing and knocking ever since. Plummer was born 1S88, and is a graduate from Hagerstown High School. He has grown to be one of the most popular boys around college, and holds the position of fund-chaser for the athletic association, as also for the Y. M. C. A. Wilbur ' s initial step toward the proper appreciation of the co-eds was taken but a few months since, for which reason it is the intenser. His chief amusement is the dissection of felines, his favorite theme evolution, his highest am- bition to become a political boss. Discard- ing the sheepskin and mortarboard, Plum- will begin as a ward-heeler in his native town, and promoter of prize-fights. His keen observation and brilliant mentality in- sure his success in any profession he may decide to follow. -46- Earle Emerald Renn Middletown, Pa. Earle ' s nativity dates back to 1888 in the town of Manheim. As his father is a min- ister and has held charges in numerous sec- tions of Pennsylvania and Ohio, Earle has been subject to the various influences, each playing its part in his intellectual and moral make-up. He would have all his question- able characteristics attributed to the influ- ences of Reading city life. Possibly the most marked element of his character is his independent disposition, is directly due to the fact that he was a student and graduate of Reading High School. Earle is never worried about anything. His philosophy is, take life as it comes. He possesses exceptional oratorical ability and is famous in the realm of argumentation in which he occasionally indulges. After leaving L. V. he hopes to enter Yale where he will take a course in pill-making, and the proper care of the health, in order to alleviate the sufferings of mankind. Frank Allen Rutherford Royalton, Pa. F. Allen is familiarly spoken of as Runt- ime, supposedly because of his bias in fa- vor of the town pump ' s product rather than the dining-hall milk. Allen is one of our athletes — in fact is a so-called all-round ath- lete. Unwittingly he is a disciple of Scho- penhauer, that is, at all times except after lost games, when he optimistically declares it might have been. Allen was born 1S87, entering here from his labors as a country school taskmaster, which may account for his passion in wielding the baton. How- ever a forced demonstration rude of the properties of the oil of gladness some- what assisted the young men to settle down to work. Between laboratory and Lebanon ' periods, when not otherwise occupied, Al- len studies. An honor graduate from Mid- dletown High School, he is a clever young man, and with the proper application will end up as a dispenser of soothing syrups. Lucy Snavely Seltzer, Lebarron, Pa. Lucy ' s eves tell the story. In sooth, her large sympathetic eyes and rosy cheeks have been the vanquishing of many an im- portunate jouth. To quote Lucy herself, she is very loving, unselfish and martyr-like. Born 1S87, a graduate of Lebanon High School, and a resident of Lebanon, she is a staunch defender of the Pennsylvania Dutch. A constant source of inspiration are her lit- erary productions, for she is of a very intel- lectual cast, is Lucy, and we are very proud of her. In short, she is the delight of the Profs and a model student. Not withstanding her unassuming ways, it is to be feared that she is at times very frolicsome, yes, and even mischievous, for Lucy is a child of fancy, and lives far above the everyday world of commercialism and routine. Although pro- vokingly immune of frivolity, she has lately shown signs of becoming a convert to cupid. This, however, she will not admit. Floyd Elmer Shaffer, Lebanon, Pa. Floyd better known as Fat is a purely western type. His early home was in Topeka Kansas where he was born 1889. He is, as he himself expressed it the baby elephant of the class, being the youngest of its members. By taking an active inter- est in athletics since his entrance at L. V. he has become an all around athlete. But in no phase of sports does he take greater delight than in foot ball. As captain of last year ' s team he played a great game. His re-election to that position for the season this fall shows the confidence the team placed in him. Besides his record as an athlete Fat is a bright student. An active member of the field club, he takes special interest in biological studies and expects to make that his future study. After gradua- tion he will take up a course in medicine in the University of Pennsylvania. James Clyde Strock, Mechanicsburg, Pa. Oray (not J. Clyde ' ssister, but J. Clyde himself) is characterized in a single phrase by which he answers all questions asked him and that is Lebanon for mine. Omy hails originally from Lemoyne which Abner says isn ' t saying much but what is saying more, he later moved to Mechanicsburg where Abner lives. Though Omy spends his vacation on the farm his aspirations do not tend in that direction. Everyone thinks that some day Omy will follow in the footsteps of our French Prof. These conclusions are drawn from the fact that he has a great propensity for every- thing French — French professors and the young ladies of Lebanon who affect a French style in particular. Omy is de- clared just great by all Lebanon girls. While it is evident that our subject is fond of the refining society of femininity, as a student he is free from any erratic habits. He was born 1887. Victor Otterbein Weidler, Royalton, Pa. Since the event of his birth in 1S87, Vic has lived in most of the small cities of Eastern Pennsylvania, to which fact he at- tributes his cosmopolitan view of things He is indebted for his prominent station in college to his youthful precociousness, and his elder brother ' s prescribed methods of successful living. As a student, he is decid- edly of the lexicographiclassical type. With the exception of athletics, Vic. is engaged in practically all the pursuits of the typical college man. A member of the Glee Club, while his matins ofttimes fail to soothe the late riser ' s troubled conscience, his love ditties are seldom ineffective with the fair sex, of which Vic is an avowed admirer, and in whose company he is continually shin- ing. Vic is earnestly looking forward to great things, and we are confident that he will succeed, especially after he is comfort- ably settled in his parish, with an assistant to approve of his scriptural discourses. —49- Jesse Thomas Yoder, Bellville, Pa. Jesse spent the greater part of his life in the vicinity of Belleville, Pa. After gradu- ating from the Bellville High School he came to L- V. C. The effects of his early life and training can be seen in his strong physique and clear brain. His movements are not of lightening rapidity, but he can always be relied upon to reach the goal, especially on the foot ball field, where his presence is always hailed with delight by his fellow students. Notwithstanding his late start, there are strong indications that he will reach the goal of matrimony before some of the more pretensious chaps. After graduating he expects to teach for a few years, and then go to Yale to prepare for special Y. M. C. A. work, for which he is well adapted, as well from experience as a delegate to vaiious conventions, as in char- acter and personalty. Erstwhile Members of 1910 Harry W. Andrew, Strasburg Harry K.

Whitehead, McKeesport Junior Facts 71 UST AS the mighty oak has sprung from the little acorn, so the illustrious class of 1910 is winding its way from minuteness to magnitude. The four years of college life may he likened unto the four seasons of the year — Autumn, Winter, Spring and Summer. In the fall of 1906 twenty-one blooming youths stepped upon the stage to partici- pate in the play entitled College Life. Of these twenty-one performers, ten were prepared for the drama in the preparatory department of our college; the other eleven having been trained in various high schools and academies of notable standing. When the curtain was raised and the players entered upon the stage for the first act all seemed bliss and happiness. Hereunto is the Freshmen year likened to the season Autumn. It opens with rapture mixed with various pleasures, and ends with woes and trials. So it is with the first act of the play. When the twenty-one actors were assigned their respective roles, all seemed to go well. But as the act neared the end, the players saw that to take a part in a drama of this type was not all pleasure. However all became accustomed to their tasks, and the finale drew nigh and ended with a grand success. Intermission passed quickly. The stage having been cleared and all in readiness for Act II. it was found that seven players had left the stage to take up their roles in a far different play. But the vacancies were quickly applied for by six new actors. These players had been prepared and coached for their respective duties in standard High Schools and Institutes. Through this all proved their capability of taking the parts assigned them. So the curtain raised and the drama proceeded with twenty participants. Now is the Sophomore year likened unto the season Winter. The times are rough and stormy. But having emerged from the previous year, all were aware that trials must be encountered. This second year is the one that awakes one to a new sense of responsibility. But, notwithstanding, the road was traveled with a bold front and a high spirit. The act ended with a great applause, adding much to the credit of the players. Intermission passed — but not so rapidly. After again clearing the stage and viewing all in readiness for Act III, two were again missing, one of them dropping out on account of ill health, and the other having gone to take up a greater role on a larger stage. But as no new players were on hand the rest just doubled up and increased their courage. Drawing the curtain the act proceeded with eighteen players, their respective roles being more burdensome to carry. So is the Junior year similar to the season Spring. This is the time set apart for all work. But having passed through the Winter with grandeur, the road did not seem so hard to travel. Work of all kinds must be carried through. But, considering all, the act is nearing the end with a seeming success. 1910 Class Poem Our life has been a happy one Oh dear old L. V. C, Brimfull of tasks ond struggles won, And full of love for thee; For didst thou not prepare our way To high achievements gain? So willingly we strive each day For what we can attain. With proud and loyal hearts aglow We look upon the past; The present waits us to bestow A blessing that shall last. The future we must not forget Is waiting for us too, And know it has some good things ) ' et In store for us to do. Vain pleasures we have put to flight, United is our band, And always stand for truth and right In God ' s most fruitful land. So shall we ever stand, we pray, Whate ' er our lot may be, As here we now prepare the way For great eternity. The Juniors now are in their prime, The stars of classic halls, Whose purpose always is to shine, And go where duty calls; To give to others of our best, By cheerful word or pen; And then the world may bring to test, The class of 1910.

A glance at the Bizarre of last year will show a record of the achieve- ments of our Freshman year. This year seems like a happy dream of long ago. For to our Freshman year belong some achievements that can not but give us the greatest satisfaction. It was during this year that the class of 191 1 claimed the honor of being the first Freshman class to win the Freshman-Sophomore debate at L. V. C. Having left behind as Shakespeare says, Our salad days; when we were green in judgment, we entered upon our Sophomore duties. At the beginning of this year we grieved to note the absence of six of our mem- bers. We felt their loss keenly. But we gladly welcomed three others into our class. And with the same spirit and enthusiasm of the year before we entered and won the bag-rush with the Freshman, which they were so confident of winning. But oh, what a disappointment for them! And was there ever a class so broken in spirit as that class? You may hear little of this in the Freshman records, but you will read of the foot ball game which was our first defeat, but which was not to our discredit. And we are sure that if the Freshmen had not won this game, their defeat in the bag-rush having left such a bad effect on them, they would have never been able to survive the other battles of the year. Throughout the entire year as a class we have shown a spirit that is above reproach and have always shown ourselves to have a degree of unity and energy. We have shown our influence by the manner in which members of our class have taken part in all the activities of the college. And representing as we do a great variety of talent we are sure that by keeping our motto Ad Astra per Aspera ever before us we shall be a credit to ourselves and to Lebanon Valley. 1911 Class Poem Our college dear, under whose will We passed a year with excellent skill, We meet again, united, free, And loyal to our class and thee, To thank thee for the year that ' s done, And trust thee in th ' ensuing one. Here, in the past, with true design We strove to make that name of thine With echoes ring in loud refrain, Of honors which our class did gain; To raise the college to high fame Which through the white and scarlet came. We faced the past, the future greet, With courage bold, its tasks we meet, That helped us in our triumphs won Throughout the year now passed and gone. We wish to common good ordain Our powers of both hand and brain. For great achievements which we ' ve won By toil, as men in noon-day sun, We give thee thanks; but ever crave For nobler aims, both strong and brave, For strength our motto to achieve And no unfinished task to leave. Oh, may the class, Nineteen Eleven, Do, as before, all work ' tis given! Oh, may the scarlet and the white, In its contests for truth and right, Reach every mark, and perfect be, And bring renown to L. V.

Residence Jonestown Annville Lebanon Columbia Scranton Middletown Columbia Red Lion Hagerstown Lebanon Chambersburg Chambersburg Millersburg Rovalton Freshman Prattle T IS impossidle for any one to tell in the most significant words the grand history of the best Freshmen class that ever entered Lebanon Valley College. Although the professors paid us this compliment, yet we did not feel as conceited as the Sophs would have under similiar circumstances. The Sophs thought us green and slow but soon we made them think differently as successive events proved. We organized as the classof 1912 in the library building. Not a Soph appeared and as usual they must have been asleep, or more likely afraid to show themselves. The first contest between the Freshmen and Sophomores was the bag rush. Al- though we lost this, nevertheless it was not to our discredit, for all the boys did their best and no one expected more. The next contest between our class and the Sophomores was a foot ball game. Here we carried away ro3 ' al honors by the score 10 — o. During the game we dis- played our colors, purple and gold, and as soon as the game was ended we marched in the Main Street with flying colors. The Sophs meanwhile, had crept home through side streets, weeping tears of bitter agony. We celebrated our glorious victory that same evening by a taffy pull in the kitchen of the Ladies ' Dormitory. Our class has been well represented both in foot ball and basket ball and has done much to help gain honor for the Blue and White . We also have had a few members in the Glee Club, which organization is well known and has achieved great success. Soon after our Christmas vacation we surprised the Sophs by having a banquet at the Metropolitan Hotel, Harrisburg. Every Freshmen escaped and the Sophs were such a sorry looking bunch that someone, ignorant of the state of af- fairs, might have thought that they had lost some dear friends instead of the wily Freshmen. We have had victories and defeats, but the former greatly outnumber the latter. Vet without the latter, we would not have been able to win the former, for defeat only made us strong and determined to conquer. Our motto Ut Labor, ita praemium, is constantly before us, and He are ever striving to reach the goal, which we see dimly appearing at the horizon. 1912 Class Poem With the glorious class of nineteen-twelve No other can compare. It makes its boast in stalwart youths And prides in maidens fair. The class, it is a jovial band Brimful of laughter and of glee, For every virtue does it stand, But from vices it is free. To its colors and its motto It shows true loyalty. No task begun but is well done In the halls of L. V. C. With courage and true-heartedness And tenderest sympathy Each member strives his part to do Without bitter rivalry. On such a class as nineteen-twelve Its hearts with truth aglow May kindest fortune ever smile, And blessings rare bestow.

Senior Class Conservatory of Music History IS TRUE, our class is small in number, but then The strength of the pack is the wolf. In looking over our class roll you may have one or more of these questions to ask: How is it there are so few members in the class? Did not others care to belong to the senior music class of 1909, or wasn ' t it worth while? or perhaps this one: Were the members so exceptionally for advanced in the lore of music that they alone were worthy of senior dignity and privilege? An affirmative of the latter would be nearest the truth of the matter. Before giving a detailed account of the acquisitions of our class, a short sketch of its members can- not be lacking in interest to the public. Are not the biopraphies of Liszt and Beethoven and Wagner eagerly devoured? Have articles on modern musicians ever failed to please? So to my task, without further apology. Miss Jessie Brane, after an absence of a few years, returned late in the fall of last year to finish her studies here, and graduate with the class of 1909. Jessie is one of the brightest, most cheerful girls in college, — not to say anything of her good looks. But in reality, her attractive and sunny disposition lias from the fiist won the ad- miration of the masculine element, faculty and students, with whom she is the most popular girl in college. We must not forget to record that Jessie has a fine collec- tion of love-songs, such as Just You and You ' re all the world to me, which she sings to her admirers in practice room, instead of thumping the keys. We are certain that a bright future awaits her. Miss Maberry, notorious as the silly girl of the theory class, represents the class in athletics. She is an excellent cross-country sprinter, plays baseball and jokes. Laura has also acquired the reputation of writing anonymous love ballads, and of supplying refreshments of the nature of pretzels and Limburger to a certain senior visitant of her practice room. Everyone declares Laura a jolly girl,! of which charge she is undeniably convicted. The third member of this illustrious group of musicians is Miss Prout, who has won distinction along many lines; an accomplished pianist, vocal soloist and violin- ist. She is also an expert in the art of walking and has explored all the country places on all sides of the college, from the gravel-hill to the observatory tree along the Quittapahilla. After graduating Miss Prout will leave her paternal home, Wiconisco, for — well, they have not yet decided on the place. Mr. Mills matriculated here last fall in order not to lose, his instructor, Prof. Jackson. Charlie is an excellent pianist, and delights the weary students before meals by his lively strains in the ladies ' parlor. He is a general favorite and we are sorry to lose him this commencement. With pleasant memories not unmingled with feelings of regret at our last ap- pearance here as students, and with a deeper reverence for our Alma Mater, we draw the curtain . Jesse Matilde Brane C. L.

When dark and dreary days they meet, No cringing mien nor falt ' ring feet; Their slogan Onward, ne ' er retreat, A battle won is a victory gained. Unfurl the standard L. V. A. And sing to its glory day by day By ramparts captured in the fray When wisdom ' s foes unmarshaled flee. The Red and Black, long may it wave O ' er hearts of steel and courage brave Unsullied ere the Rose to save, Emblem of immortality. Conservatory Students Albert. Mark A.

A. are important factors in the college life of every student who is in any way connected with the associations. It is under these influences that the students are constantly reminded of their duty to God and their fellow beings and are made to realize the responsibility of their influence for good or evil upon others. An atmosphere of mutual helpfulness pervades the meetings held each Sunday afternoon in the respective halls. In the joint session convening each month the program is devoted to missionary consideration and discussions. Another important feature of the work and one which has within recent years received special emphasis is the systematic bible study. Appropriate courses are chosen in which the daily studies are outlined. Each week the various groups meet under a competent leader and hold a discussion of the week ' s lessons, developing those thoughts which have especially appealed to the student in his daily study. The primary ' object of this phase of religious work is to induce the student to realize the importance of daily devotion. Besides the benefits derived from relations with the local association the student has the opportunity of extending his knowledge of the work and at the same time receives spiritual inspiration by attending the various conferences convening during the year. Considering the beneficial aspect of each of the conventions there is prob- ably no meeting of students which creates such permanent results as the summer conferences of the respective associations. Here it is that the student comes in con- tact with persons and is addressed by speakers who understand perplexing prob- lems arising in college life, and here they receive the necessary instruction for the development of a more complete and productive individual. No person who has ever been a delegate to such a conference will regret the sacrifice he might have made to make the trip possible. It has a lasting influence upon every student. Besides the religious influences exerted by the associations they serve as a medium by which the new student is welcomed and made to feel a part of the insti- tution. At the informal receptions held in the beginning of each term the new student meets and becomes acquainted with those with whom he will be more or less associated during the year. They at once realize that the association is interested in them and desires to help them in any way possible. The Star Course is also under the auspices of the Y. W. and Y. M. C. A. This gives the student the privilege of hearing at least one popular lecture, the other four numbers consisting of entertainments and concerts. The committee always wishes to select as good a course as possible and have during the past year succeed- ing in doing so.

Saylor A Tale of the Library ' Twas one day in bleak December As I very well remember That I chanced into the reading room to read. For my heart was set on learning, All my soul toward nowledge yearning, For I knew of greatness knowledge is the seed. As I sat in there perusing, Magazines and pamphlets using, I was conscious of a gentle, humming noise. First some laughter! then a giggle, Then a shake and then a wiggle, Passing all around the room from girls to boys. So I glanced up in the notion To see the cause of such commotion, . For I knew that here such trouble should not be; And the sight that met my eyes, sir, Filled me with a great surprise, sir; I shall tell you what that day I chanced to see. All the girls were loo i ng foolish, All the boys were looi ng mulish, And a silly little smile was on each face. Each mouth looked so appetizing. It was not at all surprising. That wht re hearts were trump a iss should be an ace. Each maid ' s hair was brown and waving Some lad ' s heart to be enslaving, With their wily lips upturned like Cupid ' s bow. With their waists so slim and slender, And their hands so sott and tender, ' Twas no wonder that the fellows giggled so. Still, I could not help but wonder What mista e or foolish blunder Caused this cooing now so early in the year. That the glorious sunny spring time, Warm and glorious budding ring time, Brought the lovers out of door I always knew. So I glanced up to discover If perchance I might nncover What might be the cause of all this love and wooing. Then I rubbed my eyes, and stared, sir, For this I was not prepared, sir ; I no longer wondered at this mischief brewing. Little Cupids here were prancing, Little Cupids here were dancing, With a quiver full of golden darts. First from man to maiden skipping Then from maid to man were tripping. As they pierced with love ' s own weapon every heart. A senior here with mind astute, Tall and dignified to boot, With his arm concealed in a suspicious way. While beside reposed a flower, (Stolen from Absinthia ' s bower) On his coat lapel a button-hole bouquet. Though we really must refrain From the mention of a name, Yet a little story well we recollect Of a certain Junior girl And a boy whose name is Earle, With their arms entwined in monogram effect. While their hearts as one were tuned, Shamelessly they sat and spooned; The Librarian really didn ' t seem to care. For within his little lobby, In his new suit looking nobby, Symptoms of Brane fever lurked there. And the Prof., so staid and austere, So dignified, strict and severe, In shocked silence gazed upon the sight surprising. Scouting thoughts more democratic Sought by edict quite dogmatic, To supplant the gods by one less enterprising. Wise men love a sickness term, Of which Cupid is the germ, And prevention is of much more worth than cure. So they ' d best by vaccination, Scientific ' noculation, And by disinfectants keep their buildings pure. An Inducement Written in the French Canadian dialect.

It strike me dat vas som ' vat cold. I feel lak great beeg dunce, If you tink dat was go so nice, I vish you ' d try it once.

I make explain all ' bout de tings, Dat for her I feex op; An ' wonder if she ' ll turn me down, Or if she ' ll tak ' me op. Veil not so long I hav ' to vait, For answer com ' from her. She sen ' a special not ' aroun ' , Wid garcon messenger. No need, I guess, for me to say Which of us took de trick ; You know what answer ees dat come ' By messenger so quick. She say, not dat de house it was, Not ma swell propertee, But dat she villingly accep ' All ' cause dat it was me. A. R. Spessard. A Girl ' s Return From College Now here I am in the dear old place — Yes, dear mother, I ' m here to stay. Let me hold your hair against my face, And kiss both chee s in the dear old way. Just look at me hard — I ' m well and strong, Just feel my arms — they ' ll stand the test; I ' ll go to the kitchen where I belong, You go to the porch and rest. I liked my teachers; I liked my books; I had my sh are of the pran s and fun; But my heart came back to the sweet home nooks, And I thought of you when the day was done. I used to think what you had for tea, Just what you were doing and how you were dressed, And some how or other it seemed to me, I loved 5 7 ou much better than all the rest. Oh, dear little mother, it brings the tears Whenever I think what I ' ve let you do; You ' ve planned for my pleasures years and years — It ' s time I planned a little for you. So drop that apron and smooth your hair; Read, visit or knit — what suits you best; Lean back in your chair, let go your care, Just take a vacation and rest. E. M. G. Keep a-Plugging Are your lessons getting hard? Keep a-plugging. Always been the highest card, Keep a-plugging. Never win without a try, Ne ' er a crown without a sigh, You will get there by and by, Keep a-plugging. In well doing ne ' er grow weary, Keep a-plugging. Though the task be hard and dreary, Keep a-plugging. At hard luck don ' t stop, for shame! You ' re the only one to blame, Keep a-going just the same, Keep a-plugging. Look above toward higher things, Keep a-plngging. Defeat ' s the only thing that stings, Keep a-plugging. Keep your eyes then on the top, On the best place get the drop, Keep a-going, never stop. Keep a-pluggiug. M M Base Ball Upon the level field behold A gathering of pleasure ' s court, To play a game of college ball, In friendly rivalry and sport. Swift from the pitcher ' s hand the ball Flies till it meets the bat, and then Upward it scales the sky ' s blue wall, Trembles, then drops to earth again. Then barken to the lusty shout That seems to shake the very sun: Tell us the score, Is it an out, Or did the player make a run ? So every afternoon their play Makes tougher muscles, redden cheeks, And keeps our sturdy boys to-day The rivals of the ancient Greeks. Tickle, tickle, little flea, How I wonder where you be! Somewhere underneath my hat, Where the d are you at ? J. E. The Influence of Anglo-Saxon So deeply was I engrossed in the preparation of Anglo-Saxon, that unaware I was locked in the Library- Under its spell as if the music of Orpheus had charmed me, I saw and heard the following strange things. Whaet ! the light was dim in the old Library Softly op ' ed the door as there entered both youth and maiden. Bright seemed the light as they approached their favorite alcove. Whaet ! he was both tall and fair and she though not so tall was fair and slender. She was seated and he by her side; behold their young heads to-gether they drew until they met and — Whaet ! the light grew dim as before. Again the door opened; there entered two; the light increased as noiselessly they did wonder ' till they beheld a secluded retreat whither, hand in hand, he led her where he, of waving locks, spoke to her of auburn hair alone and undisturbed the sad words of ' parting. She shed a tear; he sadly arose; Weep thou no more and be this thy comfort — - but as he with arms extended toward her advanced a step — Whaet! all had vanished. A thr idda mael opened the door; two forms glided in, their faces were sad Too sad, too sad and they so young. They talk of times past; of pleasant hours spent in the library. Gifts they exchanged, class pins of High School. Then spoke they vows that they would ever remember each other. E ' en did he promise to write to her often. Then sighed the tall dark lad mael ist me to faran ! The blond arose so stately and fair and both — Whaet ! all was darkness. L. S. S.

Flook Purpose of the Club To keep burning in the hearts of loyal republicans enthusiasm for the Grand Old Party The club, consisting of more than forty members, with banners flying, was given a prominent place in the parade in Lebanon on the night before President Taft s election. After the parade the members of the club were ushered into the Academy of Music, where seats were reserved for them, and where a number of songs and yells were given. A Tale of the House Here beginneth the Tale. It came to pass in the same year that there dwelt in our house devout men of the ministerial association. Now these same men gathered together for the singing of songs, and the reading of the Word, which is altogether comely. Notwithstanding the goodly intentions of these pious men, there arose in the house one of ill repute, and behold how he wrought much havoc. For as a thief in the night, he drew nigh unto the flock, and did that which was very unseemly. And straightway the culprit made his escape. Explicit prima pars Sequitur pars secunda. Now when the chiefs of the men would depart to their resting places for the night, it happened that a strange report was brought unto them, wherefore they were not of one accord concerning the matter which was discovered. One, the presi- dent said, Let us go in peace; whereupon another waxed wroth, and taking in his hand certain receptacles of -water, the which were not uncommon in those days, he entereth into the abode of one Dawson, the brother of Adam. Now, albeit he ac- cused this man of the evil deed, the same was not guilty. But the other would not hearken unto him, and being sorely put out with himself, he cast the receptacles oj water into the man ' s house, doing much injury. Explicit secunda pars Sequitur pars tercia. And thereupon came Adam. Now when the man, whose name, being interpreted meaneth Judge perceived what what he had done, his courage forsook him, and he was as one in a dream. For Adam hud spoken, — he of few words and mighty of strength. Adam, moreover, exhorted his ' brother to tell in words the meaning of this tomfoolery. Now, Daw- son, a man not easily moved into passion, straightway stepped forth and smote his enemy in the face, saying, Take that. But his enemy would not battle with him. Whereupon he whose name is Judge, gave unto Adam a sheckel; and having recom- pensed the man for his loss, departed in anger. Explicit tercia pars Sequitur pars quarta. And it came to pass that as the multitude was gathered together on the Sabbath in the House of Fair Women, he whose name is Judge, being moved by the beauty of one of the damsels made his way to the place where she stood. Now Judge had not perceived that Dawson, who was a kinsman of the damsel, stood by her, neither knew she that the nun spake not one to the other, because of anger, but believing that they knew not another, the beautiful one made known the Judge to her kins- man. And those who stood by rejoiced, and sang songs of praise; but the Judge took Dawson by the hand, and there ended the bickering. Behold the excellence of woman; a thing of beauty is a joy forever. Here is ended the Tale of the House. — 148- Feasters Club Organized for the purpose of feasting sumptuously.

Very intimate friendships are vowed, and (as in the case of a certain literary senior and a senior music student, (see final drawing) plays are given. For making these associations possible, the college performs a noble duty to the state. Much too has been said concerning the evidences of brotherly and cousinly love here. This is undoubtedly due to the existence of the organization known as the Brothers ' Club. How Funny it Would Seem To see Frost with his hair combed ! To see Wiggie walk across the campus !

En Passant Kind Reader, our task of editing is finished, and it is not without regret that these last pages are wafted out of our hands to the printers. In your criticism re- member that we are but human and that talent is rare. To some this book may serve various purposes. Herein you may find the likeness of your future wife, or your future husband. In the years to come, some, in leafing over these pages may sigh, — It might have been! Ah, the tender reminiscences! In the foregoing pages, believe us, there resides no satire, for even you have been jolly at times. We trust to your aptness of interpretation. We wish to express our sense of gratitude to all who have contributed to our book. Especial thanks are due to Miss La Verne Keister, who so ably assisted us in furnishing numerous drawings. In the aspiration that this book may serve to increase your love for the Alma Mater, and incidentally remember the class of Nineteen-ten, we bid you a last fond farewell.
