But not long did they thus stand, for in a brief space they saw ns magic, they felt its charm, they caught its spirit, and with brisk though uncertain steps, lugging heav y suitcases interspersed with band- boxes, they sought the ‘'Dorm ’ their future habitat. For several hours they sat within their silent cells tike dummies, bur at length that desire of investigation w hich has since characterized the class crept slowly ov er them So when all was quiet and still, contrary to Lee's fatherly admonition, they began to steal about like mice in cat-in habited kitchens, to venture farther and farther down the corridors, until, one by one, they found themselves upon the campus. I hen as the star-eyed sky looked sympathetically down, and as the night winds gently heaved poor freshv's slimy perch and breathed upon his knotty locks, his native field notes mellow softly answered the distant doleful whistle, tuned to an inner accompaniment: “Oh. where is Pa tonight.” However, we Freshmen soon got under way. and with the exception of a few Prol. scares and an dlegal hair-cut occasionally, our bark sailed serenely on until our leader saw til to call die first class meeting. Then what? —you may inquire. Ask a non-participant! We cannot say, hut from the strained spinal columns and the rent shirts, something evidently happened. This over, the new men settled down, quit stealing Freshman Brown’s bicycle, and began “to dig'er up.” At last June came and with it Sopho- more wisdom: then for a season we left the paths of knowledge to tread the .to - :. •; Tke-C3kMldroiv-191Z fallow furrow. September found us back again, our loins girdled for the trav. But unfortunately a most formidable enemy appeared upon the scene. Some of the biggest guwidest looking Freshmen i Parson Grimes and Big Moss Chandler for example) Mercer can scarcely remember arrived, with beggar lice fresh upon their pants and hay seed still within their locks. And believe me, these fellows hurt their Sophomore brothers no love; for when we met upon the campus they didn’t leave enough to tell rlic tale. This c u n f e s s« « n may scent strange. Bur it is mil the part of greatness to tell one side alone, Xor is ic our purpose to portray this class without a past or future peer. We arc not descended from the gods and have not had everything our way since we came to college, but one thing we have had and still possess: an un- conquerable spirit. You can heat us, you can bruise us. but you can neither make us quit nor holler. A verification of this statement followed the about mentioned defeat. Surrounded by a dozen or mare ref- erees, the Freshmen put it on us. We will just hand! it to than, hut when they started to inter our shattered spirits, they misjudged our mettle al- together An unbroken front met their line of march, a number of chapel bricks crumbled from contact with human gourds, and Mr. Persons peace- fully kindled his fire the following morning with coffin splinters. Tke - Cau Id r orv-1912 Henceforth we got about our business, and excepting a Logic cut now and then, with a chase by “Mr. Harrison, we quit our pranks, arid began to sip the honcydew t knowledge with smacking lips, as it dripped from Mer- cer's reverential eaves. Thus two other years ebbed by : and now almost be- fore we realize the situation, we are standing upon the endmost round of our Alma Mater’s springboard ready to take our halLi.inwilli.nig plunge into the great whirlpool of life. But before we leap, before we bid adieu to scenes and fellows we have learned to love, let's utter one word of admonition, let’s admonish those who follow in our footsteps to he loyal sons of Mercer, to defend her colors, and to reach for her ideals as we have humbly done. Then as the last act ere we go, ere the earth and sky blink our foster mother from our tear-stained vision let’s one and all bow ’round her sacred shrines, invoke her everlasting benediction, and pledge m her our utmost loyalty. 4' i ? 2- CI.ASS BANQUET ■.

Junior Class History In glancing hack over our three years of college life, we find that our class has conic in for its full share of luirh joys ami sorrows. Many pleas- ant memories already duster about the months when this class began, but it is with somewhat of sadness that ive remember the many classmates, close as brothers. who then shared our hopes and trials, hut who have gone from our ken forever. But while some have left our ranks, others have joined us. and today we find ourselves forging forward to the cov- eted goal of seniority with almost the original number to our credit. In these early days, when we first put out minds and bodies to the task of learning as it is taught at Mercer, that which made the strongest impres- sion upon our wandering eyes—fresh I mm fields and pastures old-—was the array of buildings that made up the Mercer campus. And standing out as a bit of pleasant recollection is the welcome that came to us when we, needing a few kind words anil a hearty handshake, assembled at the V. M. C. A. after supper. But we were soon to find, to our sorrow, other welcomes in store for us. After the V. M. C. A. we were taken in hand by the old men and were soon engaged in oratorical con- tests and all night singings. After the boys had had their till of these di- versions. we sought to obtain some much needed rest; but such was not the case. By the time we were peace- fully asleep we were greeted with a downpour of water, second only to the Hood. These festivities continued lor several nights and we began to wish that we were “back at home with 32 - Tke-Caxcldroiv.-1912 - Mamma Our homesickness grew upon us and it was indeed a happy moment with us when we had finished our first term exams, and with our warbags in hand, left to spend the holidays at home, When the season for assembling as a band of students came around again we found that things had been growing. Ideas had been undergoing a sea-change into something rich and strange and the result was a cessation ol many ol the former things and the beginning of a new era. No longer were we compelled to do stunts for the amusement for the upper classmen as had been the relentless practice in tunes past. Now at we wished to climb si tree, we must go possum hunting; it we wished to make a speech, we ran for the president of the class; if we wished to give birth to a song, we tried out for the (dee Club. In these three years of moulding the raw material into a finished prod- uct of near-seniors, we have given out of the fulness of our wealth a large share of the shining lights in all the college activities. The time is at hand for us to take upon our shoulders the mantle of government dropped upon them by the out-going seniors. It may be well for us to assure all people—doubting I homases and other men—that the mantle has fallen upon worthy shoulders and that the probability is that our handling of the vexations and tribulations anti irritations and meditations of the 1912-191.1 epoch wilt bring a whole branch of laurel for our wreath instead of just a few scattering leaves.

With the “Dorm as the base of operations, proud and oppres- sive upper classmen subjected us to every indignity, to calumny and vi- tuperation. Not a few times were the dreams of sleeping innocence cut short by a chilling dose of frigid aqua. And if soitte unlucky devil happened to stray from fits fellows, the waterpipe was hound to gush forth its pleni- tude upon his knob of understand- ing. All these insults ended in a challenge to mortal combat, which was received with gusto in as much as the thirst for vengeance had taken the place of our usual amiability. We suffered tie (cat in this our first engagement by some strange inconsistency in the course of events; however, it is a fact of college history that this was the last one. In faer, when our first year was ended, tve had become acquainted with our strength, and re- solved to demand an outlet for those inherent capabilities which, as we knew, were fitted to make our prestige a fact only too real to our rivals, and eventually make our Alma Mater the brightest star in the galaxy of like institutions. And so far—although we have lived out but half of our college life—we have shown our power to hasten a consummation of this object. Our annihilation of the new freshmen following dose upon our trans- figuration into sophomores was the important incident in our upward march to success. On the f ield of Mars, with limbs greased for batik, we awaited the onset of this irresponsible rabble that had overrun our domain since the recommencement of toil, Some barbarous and fiendish notion had ltd them to wear their nails half an inch or more and to fill their pockets with shotgun. - Kv : i : TKe - C xvildr oj -191Z powder, Hour, and hits of rock and iron, most injurious to our organs of sen- sation and respiration.

The-C ildroix-1912 0 Freshman Class History When Mercer opened up in 1911, ‘‘Freshmen” seemed to be the popular pass word nl the day and if out wished to he well entertained by the upper classmen all he had to do was mention that name. From all known or unknown regions of the South the students had llockcd, some anticipating a repetition of former joy- ful experiences others thrilled by the newness of it all. For everything was o terribly new, and every other human being on the campus seemed so wise and so much at home. Hut such a condition was not destined to last long nor was it to endure for more than two weeks. At the expiration of that time the new men were Freshmen only in name, and had assumed an air of possession tin equaled by Sophomores, Juniors or Seniors. Rut the Sopho- mores failed to see any change and continued without abatement the dep- redations which they had practised from the first day of school. In ac- cordance with the time honored custom the two classes came together in the class rush. The Freshmen entered this contest with the determination to do or die, and as It happened, being greatly outnumbered, they died valiantly. Most people look upon the Freshmen as being ignorant, fresh, and of no earthly value except to hear the brunt of jokes and pointed sayings. But in their own exalted opinion too much praise cannot be given them for their noble efforts in 1911-12: no approval of any action which they may have taken as a student body could be misplaced: and no condemnation what- ever would he justifiable in the slightest degree. Let us consider what this class has done for Mercer during the tear 1911-12. Last fall, by the efforts of Coach Stroud, a successful football team was turned out and of those winning places on the Varsity nearly a third were freshmen. A still more successful basketball team won laurels for the College, but what 64 -TKe- CskMldror -191Z could that team have done without the h reshmen ? Looking forward wc can see a championship baseball team, but would there be any possibility of such a team if the Freshmen were excluded from participation? Chat class further showed its energy and dauntless courage bv ending second only to the Seniors in the inter-class basketball games. Sophomores, Juniors, Law- yers and Pharmacists doing down before their charge in ignominious defeat. Who can doubt that the Seniors play a big role in the college life at Mercer? Then look forward and see in the graduating class of 1915 these same Freshmen whom the world has bulleted and knocked about like a ship on a tempestuous sea. And when at last Mercer has become the foremost college in all this section of the L inverse, men will look back with admira- tion upon those same Freshmen by whose efforts this was largely accom- plished. 65 Ml t.8 T Ke - Ccx i 1 d r orv-191Z — Special Class Colors: Crimson and White.

The Historian of the hand of young Solans that begin their gulling of the innocent public in June, sees a panacea to hts misgivings in these words of the poet. For verily his is a Herculean task and his knowledge too feeble to enable him to do his classmates justice. Ah, but listen, I will forget my fetters, though fast they bind me and with the wings of art eagle soar away to a vantage point. September 16th, 1911, is full of meaning to members of our class, for it was then that the Papa Sol oris with their meek and aspiring proteges assembled in the law room to begin the march across the valleys and moun- tains of Seniordom. Hobgoblins and scarecrows galore were in prospect, but undaunted, each of the young colts groomed himself for the fray, fhc handsome members after a tong debate agreed to lay aside their personal pulchritude for future use: the Beau Brummcls of the number were loath to part with their prized possession, hut they put away with due solemnity their copy of Jones on Social Ftiquette. Truth of the matter, we began to delve into the legal lore, each of us determined to learn the law, the whole law, and nothing but the law, so help us Park, l ane et al. But what of the personnel of our class? Now far be it from me to dis- parage a single member. I am too loyal for anything like this. Any refer- ence that does not smack of the best and most cordial encomium will be an error of the head and not ol the heart Pompadour I.ulhumnv, he of I- P. fame, has one characteristic that puts him in a class to himself, viz : he can ask more questions than Carter had tints, and the funny part of his inquisitiveness is the fact that he does not expect the teachers to answer him. Ye Gods! Justinian in his palmiest days would throw up his hands in defeat at some of the queries propounded, and still the wonder grows. Little Fleetwood passed the state bar examination in January, and this on the strength of the fact that said Fleetwood was never heard to consult the primed authorities that the other members of the class conceded by word and deed to be their stay and dependence. Pete Holliday and Abe Conger = t . ; TKe-C30j:ldroi -1912 — most vigorously opposed the personal pulchritude mentioned above. We do not mean to say that these men were enamoured of the gentler sex; not at all, nor do we try to prove it, for quod constat dare non debet veriticari is a well known legal maxim. Clements anti Mills it is rumored will proceed to a South Georgia town immediately alter graduation; there hang out a shingle, and as Tom Dixon would say, “join the human race. Yet wc would not have you think that all our time was consumed by Cupid and Hymen. The vain pleasures of the world did not have us com- pletely enthralled. I call upon the immortal Bispham to say thee nay! 1 refute it in the name of the mighty I leurd, that Master and Prince of Com- mon Law pleaders : I summon to our assistance the shades of the departed Blackstone' In the name of all these worthies at once I deny that we idled away our precious rime. “It is the vilest slander of innocent men, done with a malicious intent to injure ljs in our reputation and profession.'1 Know law! Why certainty. I .angdale proclaimed with a gusto, even at rhe beginning of the term, that he has been versed in legal writ “from the time whereof the memory of man runneth not to the contrary ' And this same Langdalc believes in the maxim that ”1 It who seeks equity must do equity ' hence, he being an honorable man. telleth not a false truth. Yes, our class has been studious, carefully observant of law and lawyers, and each member possess- ing in a remarkable degree “Self reverence, self knowledge, self control, These three alone lead life to sovereign power. ct we have not been wholly free from strife among ourselves. Of course our number without a single exception is ambitious. Anyone acquainted with the class will not say me nay. Naturally then, when election time came around every father's son of us wanted an office. ( Who has the affrontery to say we don’t possess one requisite nf a legal luminary?) All of us could not land an office though. We effected a compromise and the election passed off without bloodshed. Xow my task is almost done. I realize the truth of the common law maxim, that “Idem est nihil dicere ct insufficicnter diccre. But what is my resort? ] could tell you of Turner, the advocate; write a eulogy on rhe un- tiring efforts of the Lewis brothers to impress their classmates with the glo- ries of Wake forest; recount the many instances that “Judge” Fussell has baffled the “Prof” with his ingenious and blunted queries. All our know!- 8+ - - . TKe-C vildroix-1912 v , . _ edge is not theoretical either. Our Moot Court proved a greater factor in developing us in the art of cross examination, in the putting of a case to the jury, and in practice and pleading. And such pleading! Already Daniel Webster has been eclipsed and Thomas II. Reed forced to take a back seat in the procession. Marshall and l ancy sink into insignificance In the side of I lollulay. Conger ct al. Surely the clientele ol these young limbs of the law will cry out exultantly one of these days. A Daniel come to judgment! yea a Daniel!

Acting the law we live without fear; And because right is right, follow right, until you have scaled the loftiest heights of your calling. And amidst the toil and tedium of the ascent remember that it is far better to make a life than a living, much more deserving m a fellow to live than evist.

The end is not quite yet. When the gallant fifteen, who made up this notable array of Pharma- cists-to-be rolled into Macon, they brought with them, ami in them, the promise of a banner class. I hat promise they have kept to the letter. Arriv- ing on Mercer’s campus m wandering squatis of twos and threes, they were guided into paths of pleasantness and peace by some of the upper classmen, and following the trail that was pointed out to the fifteen pairs of inquiring eyes, they finally found their way to the Science Hall and there registered under the banner of the bottles. Some hailed from the real hills and rippling brooks ot North; some from the plains of Middle; artel the remainder from the frog ponds anti Salamander beds of South:—fieorgia. Then came the call for work and for many a long day, our energies were expended in the manipulation of preparations, tests and experiments. “College Man” Whatley upon opening bis desk and taking out his Spatula (case knife) and bisque (biscuit) plate asked Dr. (_ idley if he did not fur- nish a fork also. This first year brought us a close acquaintance with Materia Medica, and the influence of the study of synonyms was extended to the names of the students: Joe Brown,” “Slick, and “Sunrise, for instance. 96 Tke- C uldror -1912 The course of time and events and experiments brought us finally to the blissful Senior year, where, in our Junior days we had so often longed to be; and with it came the study of the physiological action of the drugs. One who was somewhat afflicted with Alopecia, which being interpreted, is absence of hair on the top of the head, in the place where the hair ought to grow, asked Dr. Oidley how Pilocarpine was administered as a hair re- storer, externally or internally. Vnother, who possessed the qualities of an M. I), and desiring to prescribe, told him that in his case he would deem it wise to take it eternally. In prescription practice “Charlie witnessed an explosion which was caused by a mistake characteristic of all beginners and which fell in harmony with the old druggist's song: “Charlie was a drug clerk Charlie is no more For what he thought was I L( Was I F.SO,.

In the Mercer world this principle of contest does not find expression in Olympian games or the terrors of the amphitheater but more in keeping with the founding of the Institution, the wits-rubhing ordeal of the Phi Delta and Ciceronian literary Societies. The history of these societies dates from the year 1834. They were formed from the mutually disbanded Franklin Literary Society of Mercer Institute then located at Fen field. From the date of organization these societies have maintained a splendid record for interest and efficiency in work. Their records prior to the Civil War and since, hear the names of many eminent statesmen, orators, lawyers, judges, business men and those that have a reputation for medical skill. That these societies have been one of the most potent factors in the development of Mercer’s intellectual life is unquestionable. In their work they deal with life issues. The great questions of the day are ably discussed in the light of twentieth century ideas, and new theories arc set forth that may in the course of human events revolutionize many systems that have sup ported our civilization from time immemorial. As a result of this, neither society can boast of an unbroken chain of victories. But yearly the laurels are divided by hard-fought contests. Despite the generous rivalry that exists there is a strong fraternal spirit that pervades both societies. Both arc striving toward the same great goal. In view of the splendid records of the past and with the material now m ail- able, it cannot be doubted that the future of the societies w ill be one of great activity and crowned with success. 103 KM — «4- TKc-C Mldroi -1912 v - Debaters CICERONIAN SOCIETY Charles Gaston Clement, . .

They went into the haunts and dens of the Chattahoochee wilds and they enjoyed the blessings of the peaceful Savannah. From Rabun’s Beach to T'ybcc Clap their melodies were chanted. But in every account of wonderful events there are the moments of climactic importance, and in searching the annals of the Glee Club, which records are protected bv our faithful and corpu- lent Scarhoro, we find the following incidents that stand out as exciting forces and dramatic moments in the 1912 season t Kmbri'Akv 2nd: Boarded train at four o’clock lor Momc .uma. Rodgers bought all the chewing gum the ‘butch had and didn't have any money in his pocket. Powell came to his rescue and the train started again. Ten minutes later, everything running smoothly. Professor Carver stand- ing in the middle of the car showing Bailey bow to manage his coat tail when he started to sit down on the piano stool. Arrived at Montc .uma. Supper destroyed. Concert begins. Concert ends. Everybody able to wink their eves. Proceed to reception. 'Nongh said. Fi-.RRIwhy 3rd: Landed at Marshallville. Rehearsal. Hotel attacked. Supper offered as a peace offering. 1 rcaty signed. Concert given ami re- ception followed as the night the day. FTUJtrARY 5th: Four o'clock in the afternoon. The manager raving, the president weeping, the secretary fretting, and all the other members eagerly looking for Hawthorne to arrive before the train departs, f'hc man- ager loses overcoat. The train pulls out. The dear hoy is left. The storm passes away. Bessie lift is reached and a rehearsal is realized. Boys try to sing and w atch the girls promenade across the campus. Morgan wrenches his jugular vein. Supper is received and the tuxedoes are in evidence. Con- cert is a success and flic reception is a successor. Li-: bet ary 12th: Jackson is the goal. Jackson is attained- Jackson is entertained and Jackson is left. Ffjiri m Uth: Atlanta is reached at II a. m. Howell stands on the corner of hitchall and looks at the sky scrapers till 6:15 p. in. He is called in and Gaines takes his place. Gaines is called in at 8 and I Iurlhutt goes on duty between numbers. Conceit is given in Tabernacle. Lee goes into ecstasies over the tact that the lady plays the organ without pumping. He will appreciate any information on the subject. Concert ends. Encores are given whether the people clap rheir hands or shake their heads. On board the train to Macon. Professor Carver trying to compose a love lyric and 1 urner trying to get the door open to jump off and go back to watch the elevators run in the depot. Train arriv es in Macon at the lovely hour of three and the rain is gently pouring. The comments are low and - : - TKe-Caaildr oi ,-1912 . - — sound like the reverse of the Sunday School papers. PeiiKt'AKY 22nd: On way to Gainesville, Leave Atlanta over the Southern Pullman. Lane hears the negro announce that lunch is on and rushes to the dining car and cats everything he can get his hands on. Waiter hands him a slip of paper with his hill oil it which reads: Number 14. $3.75.” Kibby fainted away and Morgan revived him by telling him a story from Alice in Wonderland. Lester tries to see how the chairs turn and gets fastened under one and is found almost lifeless. Rodgers glances out of the window and sees Stone Mountain. I le calls for a pencil and writes: “Dear Sal, I'm goin’ter die. I’ve seen Mt. Vesuvius. Sal. I died loving you.” Powell climbs up on a chair to see how the lights are made without any oil and falls in the aisle, upsetting a lady's rats. Gainesville is hit” and the concert is born. Much rejoicing on the part of everybody. Williams loses his fertile heart. Reception is declared by Professor Carver to be the best yet. I le meets another I adv Principal. [Ik narrow gauge is boarded tor Social Circle. Moore arrives at depot eight minutes after the train leaves, and al ter several minutes he comes in sight. The fellows make an effort to stop the train. .Moore is running so much faster than the train that he has to switch to the woods and he is lost to sight. He comes into Social Circle that afternoon at eighty miles an hour and is not warm enough to remot e his overcoat. Concert is evolved, Bailey is unable to sing because of an infatuation with a little girl twenty- nine years bv age and noticeably red-haired. Reception is decidedly Sociable anti in a Circle. 1‘T.RRrary 24th: Georgia train blows for Social Circle and the Social Circle people blow for relief. Hawkins buys thirty-five cents' worth of Hoyt's products and the passengers declare that they will lynch him. Riot follows and the “hutch” offers the dub a package of salted peanuts to he reconciled. The white Hag goes up and all is well. M m it 4th: Leave 7 a. rti. for Shorter. Scarhoro stops train at For- syth to go back and get a can of talcum powder. Arrive at Rome and go to college for rehearsal. Three boys collapse at sight of some damsels giv- ing across the campus and no one is able to ear supper. Concert seems to take. Forty-seven encores given. Octett signs up to sing at Shorter every' Sunday at 5 a. m. Reception is greatest in history. March 5th: Carrollton is pronounced thoroughly cutting up. Every member is figuring oil a lot at Carrollton for his home. MARCH 6th: Arrive at La (.range for Southern Female College con- cert, Bailey has to use Professor Carver’s derby for piano stool. The dub orders watch fobs of the Southern reception. March—bur then if you want to know about the twenty other con- certs of the season, just call around to see Professor Carver and he will be delighted to give you a lull detail of every girl he promised to.

To any who are not well enough acquainted with our activities to answer at all, we ask you only to take a peep at I uttnall Square some sunny afternoon, or perhaps look the sporting page of your daily newspaper over first for a change. From the first of September until the latter part of May there is “some- thing doing every afternoon, and often during the short winter days lights are seen burning in the (ivmnasium lung alter old “Sol has turned his face toward the other regions. In the person of Dr. C, C, Stroud, Mercer has equipped herself with a most conscientious and efficient athletic director who devotes his time and energies toward teaching her students how to hoot the pigskin hit the pill and shoot for goals, While some are en- gaged in these, others are handling dumb-bells, swinging Indian clubs or participating in a regular bee with the medicine ball. Every year Mercer has reams to represent her in contests with all lead- ing Southern colleges. Do we win? l ook the record over, and you can readily sec, Of course we lose occasionally, where would the glory he in «’inning, perchance, and never losing. Vet our loss is nor always our oppo- nents gain, for. nor to the strong is the battle, nor to the swift the race, hut to the trained and efficient. Should you ever be in or around Macon on the night following a vic- tory over an old rival team, you would very soon be acquainted with the fact that a big night was on for somebody. fur spirits become so aroused that there is no sleep, until vve relax the strain on our systems, either via a night shirt parade or a roaring bonfire, culminating in a war dance. Here athletics serve one oi its most valued purposes, in that such occasions furnish rally- ing points around which college spirit tends to concentrate, thus forming a chain of fellowship and creating an attitude of reverence toward the insti- tution which nothing can destroy. l ast season Mercer was first in basket hall, second to none in baseball, and surpassed by far. all previous seasons in football. Join us in fun and physical training- I ry it. only to realize how it affects you when your spinal chord convulsively vibrates in response to the thrilling cries of the referee's whistle, or to the sonorous tones of the “I nip’s” p-l-a-y h-a-l-1. 27 128 Tke- Cs, tldror -191Z Football Dr. C.

The Kid was put to the hat first, and, as the opposing twirler was unable to focus Ins control mm such narrow hounds, four halls without a strike told the tale.

Two or three others followed his example, but the game did not warm up to any extent until Dr, Bailey climbed upon LvCoach Bailee's sitting post arid began to exhort his CO-laborers “with the eloquence of a Demosthenes, the logic of an Aristotle, and the fluency of a Scott.

But not all; lor some donned their night shirts to frighten the natives, rather than to woo the gentle goddess of sleep. And I Tighten the natives they did, for under Dr, Bloom's leadership they paraded every street from South Macon to I I Icrnulgee Park, at times becoming exceedingly un- ruly. Indeed Forrester was arrested once for hois- terousness, but succeeded in lobbying his release. I he next day at Chapel Drs. Harrison, Forrester, la meson and Bloom spoke of the occasion's solem- nity, Holmes made a few remarks on the smallness of the score, and then the orator for such occasions came out much as if he were going to call a meet- ing of the permanent council charged with the elec- tion of Manager and Assistant Manager o| the football team for the coming season and began ; Friends, Merccnans, I acultvmcn, I end me your ears: We come to bury the Seniors, not to praise them.

Jameson, Jk. 157 Tke - Caxildr on.-1912 A Byron ic Jingle With poetic aspirations and a heart of innate (flee Once J started out to give the world a flash of poetry I-'or a guide I sought through Wordsworth, Coleridge, Tennyson, and Scott, Blit my genius did not run with theirs, and I’ve w ritten not one jot; But my ardor was the kind that burns and I kepi in the race. So looking through some manuscripts I found Lord Byron's face. His goodly countenance did beam so handsomely and fair 1 thought that surely human love and genius nestled there; And straightway then I dived into the manuscript to read The vast array of lines to find the author s Style and creed. But sorely was I led astray by face so debonair,— I do not mean in point of style, for Byronic style was there In lines illumining the thought, a style I thought most apt, llis fancy took bold, soaring flights while Robert Southey napped. They called him poet of revolt (revolting just Ins job) ; He railed ’gainst everything on earth and ’specially poor old Boh. Now this took off that first keen edge from my Byronic craze: I simply couldn't sour cm a world that suits my ways. I almost feared to look upon that figure fixed in print. Vea, even to risk my life with just one measly little squint: I-'or I was not Byronic type, with clouded, mystic past; I lis lordship might not like the commonplace about my cast i lis nature, like his love, is free and great and grand and wild.- — 1 he ocean’s roll, the wild wind's wail, Lake Leman's placid smile;— I I e scatters all profusely through his great C'hilde Harold rhyme, But leaves out human nature as an ever ceaseless grind, And uses mother nature as a source from which to draw I lis consummate rounded phrases, but her real worth never saw. To bind tilt mortal here below with future in the sky. As was sweetly told hi Wordsworth and in songs that ne'er will die.— Now my rancorous inclinations ne’er had reached to that degree, W itli the milk of human kindness lashed into a curd in me. - a ; Tke- C LMldroTv-1912 And my heart, whose gentle throbbings, like the romping of an elf. Could not dare to follow one who did all rhings for paltry self. No more could my poetic thoughts mi infinitum lead Than I could cry “Ad I lades with the world’s whole moral creed. His hair is gray at thirty f and that really is quite shocking, Caused no doubt by sight ol 11 a idee whom he saw without her stocking,— Should I chance to see the lady I'd not have the heart t’ expose her, As was done without a scruple by our famed artistic poser ). Great indeed was Byron's genius, greater far than all the rest; Should his mantle fall upon me, I might use it for a vest. He won't hurt when swallowed wholly, taken in at one big gulp, lint I fear for one's digestion if one chews him to a pulp: For behind ironic phrases, filled with satire's biiter wail. There is naught to fend one's spirit from the diabolic tail. And I saw that man and matter with the manner always go; So I couldn't separate them, and I then just left them so. V. B.

Murray. 177 THE «78 — TKe-CaL £ldroi -l9l2 The Kickers’ Club J he pessimist, growler, the snarler, the cynic, I he scoffer, the kicker, the grouch ;ire all in it. The club is composed of no other high caste. Hut haters of all things who kick to the last. For nothing in life seems to go as it should. Hut left to their handling, they think that it would. I They kick ar the faculty, kick at the school. 7 hey kick at the sage and kick ar the fool. Now first in the grouch list is 11. Rice the lean. Who kicks about everything that he has seen. The next man is Donehoo, R. M., the fair, As kicker at large there is none to compare. 1 he third on the list is our lawyer, great (jus. He hates everything and delights in a fuss. A sad sour scoffer is (tamer the first. It he didn't kick always he’d certainly burst. We come to Pig Aderhold and to Cap. Jake, ’I hey’d kick good Saint Peter away from the gate. Then Cline, Arthur Ihomas, a good brother true, Just kicks because all of the others so do, A srar must be given to Mutt Smith, the short. He’s one of the rampant, quite direful sort A sweet hlue-eyed grnuchcr is fair Milton Gaines I le’s bound to kick hard so just hand him the reins, For speed and slick kicking no one's like Granade: As the grouchiest groucher his M has been made Another strong kicker is W. B. Murray, If I ludson should beat him. he’d sure have to hurry. Hut Bowen's a kicker of national fame. The “rep” he has won casts a glow on his name. This bunch as a whole has all other clubs skinned. The noise of their kicking in all ears is dinned. Their mission here ended, vvhiche'er place they meet. They'll growl at the splendor or kick at the heat. 170 - The Doctors-To-Be Sirmy; Rvery pill and capsule has a meaning a]] its mvn.' J, J. Pilcher, K. A. Gaines, C. F.
