A college generation is not long, but it is long enough for students and teachers to learn to know each other well. It is significant that this volume of the Agromeck, the memoirs of their college days, should be dedicated to Professor Pillsbury by members of the class that came into lieing when he entered upon his work in North Carolina. It is a fitting tribute of appreciation to the worth and usefulness of the man. Professor Pillsbury is one of six children born to Joshua Plummer Pillsbury, senior, and Harriet M. Ross Pillsbury. His father, a Methodist minister, served various charges in Ohio, and was stationed for several years at Newark, a town of some size with a good high school. Here young Pillsbury received his preparatory training. In 1891 he went to St. Louis to begin his professional course at the Missouri Botanical Garden, one of the best places in the country to study plants. At that time the staff included among others Dr. William Trelease, director. Dr. J. C. Whitten, horticulturist, and Dr. H. J. Webber, botanist, each of whom has attained a national reputation in his special field of work. Under such men as these a broad and thorough foundation for his chosen profession was laid during the four years of the course at the Garden. In 1895 Mr. Pillsbury received his certificate of graduation, and as head gardener assumetl management of the green- houses and horticultural plantings of the Pennsylvania State College. Three years later he became assistant in horticulture, which position he filled for twelve years. During this period he was associated with Professor George C. Butz, one of the foremost horticulturists in the eastern states, and, after his death in 1907, with his successor. Professor R. L. Watts, who is now dean of the School of Agri- culture of that institution. A number of bulletins of the Pennsylvania Agricul- tural Experiment Station emlaody the work of this period. In spite of exacting and time-consuming duties, ] Ir. Pillsbury found time to round out his studies by taking work in other departments of the School of Agriculture, receiving the degree of Bachelor of Science in Agriculture. In the same year, 1910, he was made assistant professor of horticulture and was put in charge of a new four-year pro- fessional course in landscape gardening which he had designed and organized during the preceding year. In 1895 Mr. Pillsbury married Miss Charlotte Dunfurd, daughter of Mr. J. W. Dunford, an English gardener, who still has charge of the vegetable division at the Missouri Botanical Garden. Their two attractive children are Ross and Dorothy. In 1911 Professor Pillslnny succeeded Professor F. C. Reimer as professor of horticulture in the North Carolina College of Agriculture and Mechanic Arts and horticulturist in the Agricultural Experiment Station. He has brought to his work here, in the prime of his life, the broad knowletlge, sympathetic under- standing, ripe experience and rare good judgment developed in the fields of his previous work. H.

They felt keenly the need of competent men to Iniild and direct new industries, and to restore the land which had been impoverisheil l)y slave labor. They recognized that men capable of doing what was needed would have to l)e educated in industrial schools and technical colleges. This recognition came slowly, because the Southern people up to that period had been wedded to classical education. The first organized body to take steps for the establishment of an industrial institution in North Carolina was the Watauga Club. This club, composed of bright young men, explained its mission by declaring that it was an association in the City of Raleigh, designed to find out and make knoAvn information on prac- tical subjects that will be of public use. In 1885 this club presented to the Legis- lature the following memorial: We respectfully memorialize your honorable body: First. To establish an industrial school in North Carolina which shall be a training place for young men who wish to acquire skiU in the wealth- producing arts and sciences. Second. To establish this school in Raleigh in connection with the State Agricultural Department. Third. To make provision for the e ' ' ect-ion of suitable buildings and for their eqiiipment and maintenance. (Signed) Arthur Winslow, Ckniriiian. W. J. Peele. W. LTER H. P.1GE. 12 This memorial quickened general interest in the proposed school, and several bills looking to its foundation were introduced in the Legislature of 1885. On March 7 one of these bills, introduced by Hon. Augustus Leazar, of Iredell County, became a law. This law provided that the Board of Agriculture should seek proposals from the cities and towns of the State, and that the school should be placed in the town oifcring most inducements. The Board of Agriculture finally accepted an offer from the City of Raleigh. Meantime, the ideas of the advocates of the school had been somewhat broad- ened as to the character of the proposed institution. They saw that Congress was aljout to supplement the original Land Grant Act by an additional appropria- tion for agricultural and mechanical colleges in each State. The originators of the conception then sought the aid of progressive farmers in order to change the school into an Agricultm-al and Mechanical College. Col. L. L. Polk, the editor of the newly established Progressive Farmer, threw the weight of his paper heartily into the new idea. jNIeetings were held in various ])laces, and two very large meet- ings in Raleigh considered the proposition. As a result the school already provided for was, by action of the Legislature of 1887, changed into an Agricultural and Mechanical College, and the Land Scrip Fund was given the newly formed insti- tution. In aildition, the law directed that any surplus from the Department of Agriculture should go into the treasury of the college. ]Mr. R. Stanhope PuUen, one of Raleigh ' s most broad-minded citizens, gave the institution eighty-three acres of land in a beautiful suburb of Raleigh. The first buikling was completed in 1889, and the doors of the college were opened for students on October the thirtl, 1889. Seventy-two students, representing thirty-seven counties, were enrolled the first year. The faculty consisted of six full professors and two assistants. From this small Ijeginning in 1889 the college has growii to be the second in size in students and faculty among the colleges for men in the State. It has now a faculty of sixty members ; a student enrollment in all courses of 760; and twenty brick buildings. 13 HOLLADAY HALL, ADMINISTRATION BUILDING V. M. C. A.

Too soon it seems to say good-bye; And though our college course is done, We fain would linger, linger nigh. Four years! ah, pleasures they have brought To us who must now go away ; What joys we ' ve had with new-found friends, Those friendships in our hearts will stay. Not all was pleasure; many a time When first we met, our hearts repined, Before in friendship ' s holy bonds. Release from hangings tlid we find. Ah, yes! ' tis hard to say adieu. Oh! A and M, our college dear; Our fondest thoughts shall be with you; And we shall leave you with a tear. A tear perhaps; but life ' s ahead. Let others come and fill our place; Forth to the Ijattle we must gu; Farewell! we leave thee now in peace. 32 Historv of the Senior Class The record of the Claiss of 1915 is that of a natural, harmonious ilevelopment from uncouth Freshmanhood to dignified Seniority. The follownng record, though brief antl incomplete, will show that the class in its growth and various activities has made a distinctive record during its stay at A M. On the seventh of September, 1911, one hundred and sixty-two young men from all jiarts of North Carolina and sister states gathered on the A M campus to emliark on a four-year college course. This number was made up of castes varying all the way from undignified, reserved country rustics to disdainful city high school graduates. But the barriers of caste and lack of acquaintance began to cruml le away when we met in PuUen Hall to elect officers for the Class of 1915. At the first meeting J. McK. Spears was elected to serve the class as temporary ]ircsident. A few weeks later the class met and effected a permanent organization with W. T. Grimsley as its leader. Under his leadership we learnetl the spirit of cooperation anil loyalty to our class and to our college. A summer ' s vacation decreased our numlier as Sophomores to one hundri ' d and eleven. Some were lost, others strayed, and a few were stolen. This year H. ' . Setzer was chosen to jiilot the class, and he was the right man in the right place. He taught us to respect the rights of our newly-gained friends, and we stood by him in his ])rincipl( ' s. Under his leadership we caught the true A M spirit and the individual members of the class began to take a lively interest in the various activities of college life. Again a vacation passed and eighty-two Juniors answered to the roll call. J. McK. Spears, who was our temporary president in our Freshman ' ear, was selected as the man best fitted to pilot us through that transient period from under-classmen to Seniors. This year the class lost most of its resemblances to other classes, not only taking the lead in scholarshij), but also assuming the lead in the various college activities as well. Aother svnumer ' s vacation was enjoyed and the call was made for the last charge. It was in this year that the real strength of our class was exemplified in its clean, unassinning, yet resolute adherence to duty. For the final march towards the coveted goal of our ambition, sixty-seven men rallied around the colors of the Red and White under the leadership of F. K. Kramer. This man excellently carried into effect the honor and duty conferred upon him, and he has been a prominent figure in molding the ideals and shaping the destiny of the 34 Class of 1915. It has been his constant ideal to cooperate with tlie Faculty for the aiivancement of his class and for the betterment of A M. In class athletics we have not made any startling records, but we have made a creditable showing. Our football team won the class championship in our .Iimior year, and tied the Juniors for the loving cup in our Freshman year. Althousili we have not won any of the class championships in baseball, our teams have always made a good showing and have proven worthy of our support. In ' Varsity athletics our class has been represented in all four branches — football, iKisel all, basketliall, and track. We must not forget those men who have worked so faithfully on the scrub teams, for thoy have contributed not a little towards the success of our ' Varsity teams. From the outset, ours has been a class that believed in doing things. We have furnished the largest number of honor men of any class in the history of the college, thirteen men having made honors in scholarship for four years. But we have not confined our energies to scholarship alone, our men having ever taken a high standing in all the various activities. The standard of the college publica- tions has ])een raised under the direction of our class. Our men have added new life to the Y. M. C. A., literary societies, and the many technical clubs. We have instituted at A M a system of inter-collegiate debates which is calculated to give the college as much puljlicitj ' as any other one movement. The class also organized a stock judging team, which defeated the strong V. P. I. team at the State Fair in 1914. The members of our class have loyally supported the honor system and have contributed largely towards its success at A M. At this point we would not forget the many men who have done outside work to defray their college exijenses, as they are indeed a credit to the class. We have now gathered around the festive board for the last time as under- graduates. We can li rdly realize that our college career, which has been inter- mingled with joys and disappointments, will soon be a thing of the past. The day is fast approaching when we shall be called upon to take our places in the rank and file of humanity, and there work out our own destiny. As we go forth from these sacred walls, we do so with a feeling of sadness, for during our sojourn here we have come to love and cherish this institution and the lifelong friendships we have formed. May God ' s blessings go with each and every one of us, and may we prove a credit to ourselves, an honor to our college, and loyal and patriotic citizens of our State.

Not content with the theory of flight, he has actually undertaken the construction of an aeroplane. He says he does not expect to settle down when he graduates, but instead, expects to spend most of his time in the air. t rj ' - .., -i: ' Mh- --r- -i. - 70 Senior Class Prophecy So you are Fate, I said, beaming on the wonderful being before me. Yes, he answered, Fate I am. On what mission have you sought me? O most mighty sir! said I, I wish to know of the days to be, of the future seek I knowledge. Ah, mortal, he said, a strange light stealing over his countenance, you cannot wish knowledge of all the future holds? Xo, oh no! Not that, I quickly rejoined. If only into the future could I look and see my classmates, the boys of 1915, see them after twenty years of struggle in the battle of life, see the rank that each has attained, then, then, O noble sir-, would my heart ' s desire be fulfilled. Over here, said he turning, is the Fountain of Destiny. Come. I obeyed, and in a moment I was gazing spellbound on a scene that was dazzling in its grandeur and beauty. For a time I was fairly numb with terror and I could feel the cold beads of per- spiration breaking out on my forehead. The hea- -enly being speaking at my side seemed far away, but his words came to me distinctly. I shall leave you now. Look, said he, pointing to the great masses of snowy mist that were continually rolling upward, and you shall see. I turned to reply, but found myself alone. A sickenmg sensation of loneliness suddenly swept over me, but was quickly gone. The great clouds of spray as they rose and fell possessed an irresistible charm. One moment they were gorgeous with all the colors of the rainbow; the ne. t blinding in their whiteness; again mottled with strange shadows that flitted about like shades of the ilead. As I looked — the moving mass gi-adually assumed a transparency and the shadows seemed insitle — yes, insiile, and no — they were not shadows but i)eoi)le! The realiza- tion came to me in a flash. It was evidentl_ - the interior of a home in whith wealth and happiness abounded. A number of rosy-cheeked children romping about the room were the shadows that I had imagined. Their merry voices came to me distinct ly, like the babbling of a mountain brook — strange that I had not noticed them before. The door opened. Daddy! Daddy! shrieked the youngsters in chorus. I could hardly believe my eyes. It was none other than Bull Kilpatrick, and follow- ing close on his heels was Chute Gilclu-ist, who had evidently just arrived, for he had baggage in his hand. A handsome woman of most genial appearance entered the room. Wife, said Bull, this is Chute, my old roommate of the college days, but now the well known Chief of the Bureau of Animal Industry, at Washington. It was at this point that I attempted to interrupt. I called out first to Bull and then to Chute. Neither heeded my call, and after several vain attempts I was satisfied that my voice would not carry to that other realm into which I was being permitted to gaze. Finally I contented myself with lookin g and listening. After the conventionalities of the meeting had been passed and Bull and Chute had at la.st settled before the big fire, each smoking a long stemmed pipe, I heard Chute say: Bull, I have heard many stories of your success as the organizer of the . pi)alachian Fruit Growers . ssociation, but I would like to know just how you got the thing started. It had occurred to me long ago that such an organization was greatly necdod here in the East, but I supposed tliat it would never be possible to get them to pull together. Well, he answered, I don ' t believe it could have been done twenty years ago when we first launched oiu ' little ships on the sea of life, but the peojile have changetl, education lias had its effect, and the growers no longer hold back liecause of ignorance and prejudice. And this state, I might say, is largely due to the continuous and untiring efforts of Big Proffit for agri- cultural education and cooperation. I was becoming immensely interested, but while I looked the figures became dimmer and dimmer, until they were only shadows again. The voices seemed far away, and finally came back only as echoes, and were gone. Thus with a sinking heart I saw Bull and Chute fade from view. They looked so comfortable there before the fire, I had a mad desire to join them, take down another Jiipe from the ra ' k and fire up. But I had only a few seconds to spend in regrets, for even while I was still gazing into the mist where they had vanished, the shadows became plainer and plainer, and at last quickened into life again. The scenes had shifted, and a vastlj ' different picture met my eyes. It was a busy corner in a large city and around three men clad in the uniform of the Salvation Army was gathered a large crowd. I heard one of the soldiers speaking: Before we continue with the services. Lieu- tenant Lindley will render us a song accompanied by Captain Roberts on the banjo. Yes, it was certainly so; there was Chauncey and Blondy, and the man speaking was Preacher Cloyd. I overheard two men near the outer circle of the crowd talking; You don ' t mean to tell me. Are those really that famous .Salvation . rniy trio ' ? As this view faded from sight, there were many questions bothering my mind, but changes followed in such rapid succession that I had no time to jjonder them. The next picture before my wondering gaze was a banquet hall; and standing at the head of a long festive-board I saw a familiar figure who I at once perceived to be Joe Spears, a glass held high in his right hand. Gentlemen, he said, as President of the Atlantic-Pacific Highway Commission I propose a toast to the guest of honor, the Chief Engineer of this great and newly accomplished project, which has so comiiletely united the East with the West. Let us all rise and drink to the health of the Right Honorable ,1. R. Williams. Next I was ushered into the sanct nn sanctorum of the Southern Horlicidtural Gazelle. In the chair of editor, I saw Buck White engaged in a deep and animated conversation with Little Proffit. The discussion had to do with the consolidation of the Breeders ' and Feeders ' Weekly, of which Prof was editor, with the Soulhern Horlicullural Gazelle. The consolidated publication, it appeared, was to be known as the Norlh American Farmers ' Jounml. From the heart of New York City to the midst of a wild and unfre(iuenlcd troi)ical forest was a change so complete and sudden that for a second I was startletl. The place ajiparently was a temporary sawmill camj), which consisted of a mill and many small shacks. I noticed a more important looking structure situated a little off by itself, over the door of which was roughly painted: Cotton Osborne, Lumber Importers — Venezuela Branch. While I was studying the pccviliarities of my surroundings a door was thrust open and out came Ed and Red. From what was said I gathered that they were on a tour of investigation to inspect the conditions of this camp, and expected to continue on to the next camp in the morning, and then back to headquarters in Norfolk, Virginia. 72 After the nian.v surprising cliselos iies wliii-h Fate had thus far made to me I was well fortified to meet anj ' shock that the Fountain of Destiny might now offer. It was therefore with little surprise but with profound interest that my eyes sought the following revelations. A brilliantly lighted dining-room with many well-dressed men and beautiful women, seated around the tables, laughing or lightly singing to a musical accompaniment; this was the vista of delight which next was exposed to my view. I observed that every one had somewhat of a foreign air and spoke in a language which was unknown to me. While I was yet trying to locate mj ' self and determine what portion of the world I was in, I saw a tall man enter, following the head-waiter, who was beckoning and bowing him to a table near the corner of the room. A man arose from a seat near by and approached the newcomer, slapping him on the back and exclaiming: Hello, ' Sleepy, ' old boy. Where did you drop from, and what brings you to Rome? The man thus familiarly addressed as Sleepy slowly turned his head. Why, I ' ll declare, ' Gossip. ' And what are you doing here? I was glad when I heard Smith say: Come over and join me at my table. I am all alone, for I knew that I was sure to hear lots of news. ' hat are j ' ou doing with j-oiu ' self? inquired Sleepy. Well, replied Smith, for the ])ast ten j-ears I have been working hard, raising cattle on the western plains of our country. I made a little raone} ' , sold out, and am now seeing the world for a change. But how about yourself? It was a httle different with me, said Sleepy. ' hen I left college I went back to the farm, but soon tired of that life and went on the road selling toilet waters and perfumes. I made good at that and am now taking a two months ' vacation in Europe. Say, do you ever run across any of the old fellows we were in college with? I should say, he responded, just the other day when I was in Madrid, Spain, I saw one of our classmates. Ward was his name, ' Rooky ' Ward; of course you remember him. He is the chief construction engineer of the Spanish Central Railroad Comjxany and was .sent over by the American capitalists who are promoting the road. And it was only about a week ago that I ran across two more of the boys up in Germany. ' Rusty ' Feild and ' H ' Spencer are both at the University of Munich, carrying on some research work. You knew they became very famous as zoologists back home and came over here to continue their work. Then, I guess you have heard of Polk Denmark and Frank Procter. You came across, no doubt, on the Electric Ship Line. Well, it was Polk and Frank who perfected and made possible the complete control, in both guidance and motive power, of oceanic ships by means of electricity. They are considered the gi ' eatest engineers of the day. You don ' t say, said Sleepy. That ' s the first thing I have heard about those fellows in a great many years, but I have seen some of the boys myself lately. I was in Edmburgh a short while ago, and who do you reckon I saw? ' Ikey ' Setzer! Only got a chance to talk with him a few minutes. He told me that he had given up his engineering career soon after he finished A M, and had taken up medicine. He is now a practicing physician of that city. Funny how the fellows separate, isn ' t it? While in London I had occasion to visit a photographer. After inquiry I was directed to the ' Witherspoon Photographic Studio ' as the best place in town. When I walked in you can imagine my surprise when ' Skinny ' Witherspoon came forward to welcome me; never dreamed that he was in that part of the world. Then again, on my way here I stopped over in Hamburg to see the start of an aeroplane flight across the Atlantic Ocean. I soon learned that the aviator was to be Wysong, an .American. I at once looked him up and found him to be ' Herr ' Wysong of dear old A M. We had a long chat before he started. I saw his 73 nuK ' hiiio, which he luid buiU himself and priipcllcil by tliat id ' rpctual motion engine invented by J. C. Carpenter; it is the wonder of the age. I was glad to see from the ]iapers yesterday that he arrived all safe and sound somewhere on the Jersey Heights just two and one-half daj ' s after starting. Didn ' t I tell you, interrupted .Smith, 1 had a letter from ' .Shelby ' Gardner this morning. Shelby, by the way, has just accomplished a great success in company with D. G. McArn by building an electric car system to the top of Mount Mitchell. But what I was going to say is that he told me John Pinuer is here in the city, connected with the Royal University of Rome. What do you say to looking him up? Good, glad to hear it. Let ' s do .so at once, said Sleei)V. As they arose from the table the bright lights suddi-nly bi-ramc dim — and I was again gazing at the rolling billows of white mist. Office of the New York .Secret Service Dejjartment. Telegram for Chief Howard, said a messenger. Here you are, spoke a gruff voice, right here. I looked to see the speaker and beheld Doc Howard. Would you believe it? He hastily tore open the telegram and eagerly read its contents. He reached for a button, and a man in uniform appeared. Summon detectives Jeffers and Crowder at once — very important. Almost immediately Major Jeffers and Raymond Crowder entered. Have just had word that the ten-year-old tlaughter of F. K. Kramer — that ' s ' Kip]) ' — has been kidnapped from his coimtry home, sujij osedly bj- the black- hand bunch. Bidl Martin telegraphed the facts. I want you tw-o fellows to get to work on the case at once. Best go down to their Wall Street office and talk details over with Bull before going out. The next scene disclosed the private office of the president of a large pluml ing (■slal lishnicnt. .Sitting behind a highly polLshed desk I noted my old friend ChoUy Weaver. 1 had heard that he had succeeded in collecting a bad debt contracted while at . M and had used the money to set himself uj) in business. He was engaged in conversation with a stocky little fellow who was sitting back with legs cros.sed, complacently smoking a cigar. Say, ' P. G., ' I heard Charlie say, would you like to take in the baseball game this afternoon? This sounded familiar to me so I took a second look and found my first suspicion to be correct. True enough, it was A. G. Phelps. Sure I would; let ' s close up the joint and let the whole bunch go out. I must see ' Home Run Correll ' in action once more before the end of the season. I think he is the best manager the White Sox have ever had, replied P. G. I was evidently in a far distant land, on an island inhabited only by wild animals and Ethiopian savages. What could be the cause of the excitement, I wondered; for I saw a band of warriors rapidly ajjproaching down the main thoroughfare of a village consisting of two dozen or more of the latest-model straw bungalows, antl many scantily clad w-omen issuing forth from these to meet the homecomers. As the bedraggled warriors drew nearer I observed that they were bearing among them some burden. At first I thought it |)robably the trophies of the day ' s hunt, and from the exhibitions of delight on the part of the lady members, I credited the commotion to the prospects of a feast. But to my horror I saw that it was a man — a white man — and he was dressed like a minister. At last they placed their jjrize upon his feet and with consternation I made sure that it was R. P., yes Ru.ssell Peyton Harris. The last I saw of R. P. he was the center of an admiring group of dusky maidens. 74 The sky overhead was dark and threatening and the hindscape so far as the eye couki see was one seamless waste of snow and ice. But even in this cold and desolate part of the world man had pushed forward. The sign read : Yukon Engineering Company. Harry Henderlite stood on the porch of this crude building; he was clad in the rough fur garments characteristic of the Arctic region. A dog team had just pulled up, and the two men in charge proved to be Red Alexander and A. C. Fluck. Only a moment passed before I had learned that Harry and Chai ' ley Eldridge were the engineers building the new government railroad which was penetrating far into the ui per Yukon Valley. Red and A. C. then explained how well the wireless station at Eldoro, five days to tlie northward, was working, having received messages from the Hawaiian Islands. Rat-atat-tat-atat-tat-tow! boom! burst upon my ears and set me swaying. Looking out over the vast throng that packed the immense theater, I could see thousands of others following the beat of the irresistible strain. (!)n the great stage was seated a magnificent bo dy of musicians, dazzUng in their regalia of purple and gold. A placard at one side read: Carolina ' iggles by Pearsall, Featured by Signor I. T. Lewis on the Cornet. As the music stopjjed, tluinderous applause instantly rent the air. The director turned and bowed and bowed, smiling as he did so until nothing about him was visible but the smile. In spite of this almost perfect disguise I knew him. Thunderations! I muttered. ' Vick ' for sure. Again the scene changed. Two men were sitting in the lobby of a large hotel. I carefully scrutinized their countenances, but could recognize neither and was about to give up when I caught a bit of what they were .saying. Now, Elsie, I heard one of them say, The only thing for us to do is to consolidate, just as old ' Deely ' Hooper and ' Cutey ' Eldridge have done with their cast-iron manufacturing plants. What they have done we can do. It means money hand-over- hand if we can get together on this; and let me tell you, if we will only combine our mill interests, we can control the cotton mill industry of the whole South. I was in suspense to know the names of these important personages who were thus scheming together, and was relieved when I heard the other say ; I see your point. Burr, but can it be done? Like a flash it came to me. Burr Head Smith and Elsie Atkisson, of course. Busy working on the anterior anatomy of a sickly looking horse stretched prostrate upon an immense porcelain operating table, were two men, one somewhat short, the other long. It was some minutes before I definitely came to the conclusion that they were Bob Newcomb and Guy Commander. They were both working in silence, but at last Guy spoke: I hear ' Nish ' Daily has resigned his position with the Mi-ssissippi Electric Raih-nad and has gone back to Elizabeth City. They say his wife wouldn ' t let him rest until she got him back to their little home town. Wouldn ' t be surprised, said Bob. When the big boss gets after you, it certainly does call for action; I understand his position exactly. But listen, some one told me the other day that Tate deserted the ranks of the ' Country Gentlemen ' and has entered the Constabulary of the Philippines, where he has risen to the rank of Lieutenant-Colonel. And say, I got a letter from Jack Ray this morning. It had been addressed to our old joint in New York and forwarded to us here in Baltimore. Jack says that the pearly skies and breezy pergolas of sunny southern Italy could not hold a candle to his modern Garden of Eden in the sand-hill district of the Old North State. He wants us to come down and spend our vacation with him and promises that there shall be no forbidden fruit, but also adds that there are no modern Eves to tempt us. There 75 was a quick knock foUowod immodiatply by the opening of the door, in which stood Sunshine Herman. I knew him at once, absolutely the same as back in those old college days — that same old bi ' oad and irresistible smile as apparent as ever. Both Bob and Guy stepped forward to give him the glad hand. Was passing by and happened to see your names on the door. Tlunight I would droji in and see the Doctors, said Sunshine. Am on my way home from Philadeljjhia, where I attended the meeting of the stockholders of the orth American Land Company. I have been made the head of the Agronomy Dejiartmcnt and wo have sent ' H ' Hopkins down into Alabam.i as a draiiiago ex|)ert to investigate a l)ig deal we are about to pull off down there. The next view was quiet and restful, a long, green meadow upon which a herd of cattle were lazily grazing, stretched out before a comfortable little cottage situated on the brow of a hill and surrounded by a group of pine trees. Sitting on the porch of this cottage was a man with a woman and several chiklren, all of whom were gathered closely around the man, listening to a story he was reading them. I looked closer — Could it be Trevath? — J. E. Trevathan with a wife and five children. I looked at his face; it was serene and happy. Tndy Fate lunl blessed this man. I immediately recognized the interior of our National Capitol: 1 was in the Senate Chamber. A slim man with long, flowing hair was on his feet, wildly gesticulating and speaking in an agitated voice. Now, gentlemen, I heard him say, in closing I will simply state that I advocate the segregation of the races, not alone because I come from a state in dire need of such a law, but because I firmly believe that the future welfare and pi ' osperity of ova ' beloved nation depend upon such goveriuiiental control. This gentleman sat down amid thunder-like ap])lause and cheers for Senatoi ' Teachey. I saw a man upon the far side rise and heartl the Speaker acknowl- edge him as Senator Leguenec of Louisiana. I was disappointed that Fate did not allow me to pause here and listen to what Leg had to say either pro or con in reply to Teach ; but another picture, equally as absorbing, appeared through the filmy mist. Two men were busy at one end of a long laboratory table, ujjon which were many rows of bottles and much delicate ajiparatus; a slight greenish-yellow vapor was rising from the litiuid with which they were working. When 1 heard them speak I knew that they were Bunny Constable and Hcrr Wiggins. Bunny, said Kerr, I guess we had better go ahead and order that twenty-horsepower hot-air engine from the Carolina Iron ' orks; they seem to put out the best on the market. I would never have thought Blount and ' Shorty ' Gray had it in them to build up such a business. You remember when I was down in that country last winter 1 went all over tlieir plant at the same time I went through the Pegram Haddock Cotton Mill. I have heard, replied Bunny, that they have sold thai mill for alnmsi a millinn dollars and have retired from business. It is also said that Pegram marrieil a lady who was an excellent cook. The ]ueer thing is that in spite of his wealth he still makes his wife lo the cooking. She made the mistake of cooking such good waffles and rolls that Pegram unn ' l let her hire a cook. 1 got this information from Monk ' Carter, who passed through the citj- a few days ago. From what he told me I judge that he and ' Seoul) Dog ' Rosser are also making good. I learned that they had gone in for mining engineering and had lately been awarded a contract to ojien uji and develop a big vt-in of coal in ■estern Carolina. They expect to get a big rakeolT, he said. High into the cthoro;il lilup towered two majestic peaks, their snow-crow iicd smnniits losing themselves among the fleecy clouds that hovered near. From the sculptured canyon dividing them there gushed with a deafening roar a great, foaming torrent of white. Standing on a huge spray-washed boulder at the edge of the angry waters were two men. In an effort to make himself heard, the tall one was yelling lustily to his comjjanion. Straining my ears, I caught the words: ' Wuggie, ' old horse, it can be done all right, I tell you; and 5,000,000 horsepower if there is one! The other turned and yelled back: And money enough to sink a ship. Let ' s quit when we ' ve finished this job. Well, you can ' t always tell from early indications what potential energy may be stored up in a man, that ' s certain. These picturesque figures were, no doubt, engineers ipaT excellence, but most remarkable was their identity. Henry Harshaw and H. M. Watson! Yes! It was here that I began to entertain dovibts as to the integrity of the being who called himself Fate. But my ponderings were interrupted. Siuklenly I found myself in a small den-like room, the type commonly spoken of as a bachelor ' bnudoir. Goat Hall had just rushed in w ' ith a letter in his hand. He looked very much like the Cioat of old, still small and clean-shaven; but I saw (was it pure imagination?) a new twinkle in his eyes. I could not at first identify the person whom he atldressed, but in a moment I was somewhat horrified at the discovery that the individual was none other than myself. It seems I had become a little more filleil out — no, I reckon I must confess, I had gotten fat! Yes, fat I tell you — decidedly corpulent. Listen, said Goat very excitedly. You know, ' Bull, ' this life in the Argentine has been almost complete. We are what our friends back in Carolina would call rich. But listen! I am going to make it complete! He fairly shouted the w ' ords and began to jump about the room in a most idiotic manner. I arose and grabbed him by the shoulder. Cut it, I said, what ' s the scheme? The scheme, he an.swercd, gigghng like a high-school girl. The scheme is that I leave you in the morning. I am going way up South to get the sweetest girl that God ever had the pleasure of creating. Sabe? Goat, I shrieked — but got no further. I had turned a peculiar greenish white color and began to totter. Goat ' s face clouded and he clutched my arm as I slowly sank to the floor. Panic-stricken, my old friend grabbed a bottle of wine that was standing near by and was vainly attempting to re-color my pallid cheeks with the red liquid when something got wrong with the picture machine — no, I mean a cloud must have drifted beneath the sun. Any way everything got mixed up in the Fountain and just then what seemed the sound of distant thunder reached my ears. The rumbling increased and in a moment burst with startling madness into a terrific roar. The ground began to tremble and sway, and a powerful unseen force gripped me and tossed me about, then sent me hurling through an atmosphere of darkness. The terror of the inevitable death clutched my very soul. On and on I went— miles, thousands of miles, with the speed of a runaway express. Through space, endless space, I flew, gaining momentum rapidly until I could barely gasp for breath. It would soon be over! Then from somewhere came a faint sound— yes, an earthly sound it must have been. Again distmctly: Say, Bull? WHAT ! I yelled, jumping to my feet. There before me stood Goat with an extra broad John Bumiy grin adorning his face. Trying to kill a little sleep, eh? Then very gently, Don ' t look that way, I won ' t hurt you this time. Let ' s beat it over and hear Sherwin splutter awhile. It ' s twelve-twenty now. Hell! I meekly replied. Then added doubtfully, Guess I ' m with you. Prophet. 77 Chemical Seniors H. B. Constable M.

Passed by the Nationsil Hoard «t Nonsensors 92 Junior Class Poem oil, wlii ' ic arc tlic days that arc past ami gone, And whither the hours flown? For it seems so short since the setting sun, On our first eve at college, shone. Can it iiossibly be that three whole years Have silently slipped away? Or is it a dream, a deceiving dream, That passes within a day? No, never a dream, and yet how gay. How joyful does it seem, As I think of the many happy liours, When out of the past they gleam. Another year will ])ass and then, Si.xteen will be no more; We must leave forever old A anfl M, Farewell to her books and her lore. Then let us make sure, O classmate, dear. Of the friendships ' bonds we ' ve formed; Let ' s strengthen them day by day as we go And let them by nothing be harmed. 94 History of the Junior Class The rise and fall of the Roman Empire, the conquest of Englanil by Wil- liam the Conqueror, the discovery of America, and the downfall of Napoleon were all great events in the world ' s history; but all these fade into insignificance when compared with the great event which occurred on the seventh day of Sep- tember, 1912. On this date two hundred and twenty-five men, after the trials and tril:)ulations of the first matriculation, banded themselves together and were thenceforth collectively known as the Class of 1916. A few days later a meeting of the class was called antl the following officers were elected: C. J. Pruett, President; W. M. Osborne, Vice President; P. A. Roberts, Secretary; E. K. Herman, Treasurer; L. C. Holt , Historian; and J. C. Collier, Poet. These men filled their respective positions ably. At the end of our first year the following men were elected to serve during our second year: H. E. Winston, President; R. B. Wheatly, Vice President; T. L. Milwee, Secre- tary and Treasurer; K. Sloan, Historian; and L. B. Jenkins, Poet. We were guided through our Junior year by the following officers: W. C. Albright, Pres- ident; C. S. Abernethy, Vice President; T. L. Milwee, Secretary and Treasurer; L. B. Jenkins, Historian; and K. Sloan, Poet. In athletics we have done quite well, always ])utting up a hard fight, and winning in 1914 the championship in baseball and tying for the football cham- pionship. We have furnished the ' Varsity with several men in each department. To footliall we gave McHenry, Cook, Seifert, Riddick, Winston, and Bonner; to basketball. Mason and Lindsay; to baseball, Winston antl Brittain; to track, Milwee, Abernethy, Johnson, and Goodson. Now as we are nearing the end of our third year, we look back over the ground we have covered, smiling over the many little incidents which have made our college life, and thinking, perhaps with regret, of the numerous opportunities wasted. As a class we have made good in our studies, in athletics, and the various other college activities. Historian. 95 Junior Class Officers W. C. Albright President C. S. Abernethy Vice-President T. L.

Then let us speak the secret joys to them ' ho may not know the sweets of So()homores, The mighty Seventecns of A and M. And every day has brought to us its tasks And each has brought some pleasure with it too; We ' ve been victorious in collegiate games As well as other things we ' ve tried to do. We ' ve loved our younger classmen as we shoidd And we ' ve been nice to Freshmen as can be, But oft we ' ve taught them moral lessons by The way the men threw Jonah in the sea. Oft we ' ve assembled by the evening stars With Ideals of hmghter on the village green And yells for Sophomores — the Seventeens. .Sometimes when other fellows were in lied With violin anil bow we risk a chance To have our name upon the conduct roll — We stroll out in the park to have a dance. And hunting too, out on the hills we took The ' possum from the tree against his will. And while the moon was hid behind a cloud, We took the sweet potato from the hill. With tales of every .sort we end t he night And wander back to college as the stars Are fading from the morning span of light. When all our days within these walls are o ' er And all our present hopes and fears are past — When Seventeen is locked in realms of time, 0 ii ' bonds of friendship shall forever last. Two years we ' ve known each other in our class. So now we ' ll change oiu ' shrine for .something new To leave a place for worthy younger men. And carry higher yet the White and Blue. With hand and heart we ' ll say farewell to thee . nd give three cheers to our most noble class. The loyal Seventeens of A W C. 108 Poet. Sophomore Glass Officers J. W. Ahtz President F. L.

Young 110 History of the Sophomore Class The Soijhomore Class dates its history at A it M from the third of September, 1012. We entered with the record-breaking number of two hundred and forty-six members. We rallied around our class banner of blue and white and suffered few defeats. At first our maneuvers were like those of all Freshmen. We lived in constant dread of the Sophomores, but were treated kindly and soon became tame. Many athletes were chosen from our class, an honor of which we were very jiroud. At the close of that first year we left college for our homes, wiser Ijut not sadder men. Last September, to our disapiiointment, only one lumdred and twenty-one members of our class responded to the roll call. Diu ' ing the siunmer vacation a considerable number had emi- grated to the western states, and for reasons best known to themselves many failed to retin ' n. Our first duty, of course, was to select painters to decorate the lofty heights witli our class numerals. The magic niimber 17 shone out from the walls of the buildings and the tops of tanks. Immediately upon our return, and before om- climbing artists had fairly begun their labor, we put on our sophomoric dignitj ' and began directing the footsteps of our little brothers, the Freshmen. After the first few days of excitement were over we settled dowu to a long period of study, for the second year of college life is not devoted entirely to the initiation of Freshmen. And so we [lut forth a great elTort to acquire some knowledge of the subjects so ably [jresented to us in the different dejiartments. But we did not forget the other side of college life. In the first place we took an active [lart in all college athletics. In the annual cross-country run W. K. Scott won first prize and W. W. Olive third. The following men represented us on the football squad: J. W. . r tz, M. C. Fowler, R. Gant, W. M. Johnson, J. E. McDougal, P. T. Sinunons, F. T. Stowe, B. Tini])le, P. G. Tenney, C. E. :m Brocklin, and R. C. Young. In class athletics we have as ju.st a claim to the championship as has any one. The first game was jilayed with the Jimiors and ended in a 0-0 deadlock. The Freshmen were then pla.yed, and so well matched were the two teams that neither side was able to score. Another contest was staged with the .Juniors, and this resiiltetl in a 6-6 tie. Besides going in for athlc tics, oiu ' class has taken active part in the literary societies and agricultural clubs, and .some of our members have shown that they |)osse.ss considerable talent for this kind of work. To the college publications we have eonlributi ' d some good material; for example, several poems by D. A. Moiu-oe, and short stories by R. V. Grindstaff, E. P. Holmes, and ,1. E McPhaul. In all its activities during the year, the class of 1917 has shown a strong class spirit and an ambition collectively and indiviilually to do its part for the betterment of the class as well as for the honor of the college. HlSTOUI. N. U2 Freshiiiaii Class Poem Here at college we are at last, To work for the future anil leav-e the i)ast. Hardly weaned from our mothers ' rare, Yet here we are in the Freshman chair. A ' c are green, you can easily see, Green like grass, as young as can be. Our knowledge is small, our ambition is high; If dreams were castles they ' d reach the sky. Our work for the iScjphs is carrying water, Which seems to them only what we ought to; And if perchance we fail to do more We wake next morning on the floor. The faculty think we ought to do Whatever they ask, with liberties few. For we ' re allowed only a half day leisure To rest from ovu ' work and seek some pleasure. Oiu ' life is hard, but we ' re willing to wait Till May exams, put the seal on our fate. For if we pass, which we intend to do. We ' ll muster next fall as Sophomores true. So work, poor Freshman, with all your might, If you intend to win in this flglit. Few words of courage for you there ' ll be A ' hile you are Freshmen at A M C. Poet. 114 Freshman Class Off icers C.

This is the largest number of new men ever registered at A M College. In .spite of oiu ' great number we were as green as any preceiling class. The first two weeks seemed like months to us, as we were almost afraid to go to sleep for fear of being interrupted in some impleasant manner by the class just one year our senior. After a short while we knew each other better and began to feel at our ease, for each one of us was sure that the Soph was just after that other Freshman. Since we have overcome our fright we have given more thought to our work than to hazing for I he faculty impressed this fact upon our minds, that a great day was coming for all Freshmen just before the holidays. On SeiJtember 10 we elected Mr. F. B. Whitaker to lead our class for the year. Mr. C. B. Skijiper was elected Vice-President and Mr. E. F. Lewis, Secretary -Treasurer. At the next meeting we elected the following othcors: Messrs. G. C. Cox, Honor Committee Representative; .]. (!. Hicks, Manager of the football team, and C. B. Park, CajJtain. In athletics we have made a good showing. We furnished several stars for the ' ' arsity and a number of good men on the scrubs. Our game with the Sophs was quite a surprise to every one. In fact, we really surprised ourselves. When the game ended the .score was to 0. Not since the present Seniors were Freshmen has a Freshman team done so well. We feel very proud of our team and feel sure that a number of them will make the ' ' arsity next year. In regard to baseball, track, and basketball wc feel sure we will rank among the winners of the series, which will be played between the classes next spring. In conclusion we wish to thank all the ujjper classmen for their kindness toward us while Freshmen, and wi- all hope to be back next year so that we may have a good Sophomore Class.

Here every man, jihysically able, is required to take three years of mil- itary drill; and should at any time war become inevitable, A M coulil put into the field a strong and creditable body of trained men. For the past two years the military department has been under the able and efficient supervision of Lieutenant H. F. Bpurgin, C. A. C, whose untiring efforts have been a source of gratification to all who have the interest of the institution at heart. Owing to the growth of the College, this year it was deemed expedient to supersede last year ' s battalion with a regiment, consisting of two battalions of four companies each. F. K. Kramer was apjiointed our first Lieutenant Colonel. To incite interest in this phase of college activities, there was held, during the first ]iart of February, a competitive drill between First and Second Bat- talions, the latter, under the connnand of ]Shijor G. L. Jeffers, carrying off the honors. Next, the First Battalion had a competitive drill, resulting in a victory for Com]iany B, commanded by Captain F. C. Wiggins. This company then tlrilleil against each company in the Second Battalion, with the result that Com- pany E, under Captain V. W. Herman, won the colors for being the best drilled ri)m]iany in the regiment. During the first month of school the new men demanded most attention, and drill was held five times a week. At the end of this period they manifested a sufficient preliminary knowledge of tactics, and drill periods were reduced to three times a week. After Christmas both close and extended oriler drills wer( held, practice being given in forming advance guards, establishing outposts, and marches. This, supplemented with company, liattalion, and regiment drill, continued until the annual inspection in April, after which all drill was suspentled. 124 The Band Miss Rachel Kornegay mount olive, n. c.

During the j-ear 191-i we have gone forward; not with such leaps and bounds as in some previous years, but with a good, steady stride toward the supremacy of the South. In li)14 basketball was for the first time seriously considered as a sport at A M. Under the leadership of Phillips, who was injured early in the season, and Sumner who acted as Captain, the team defeated all North Carolina teams played, i ' xcei)t ' ake Forest. We do not consitler this a bad record for a begin- ning. The Ijaseball season opened -ithout a single man of the previous year ' s infield at college, but work l)egan with an excellent pitching staff and two good out- fielders. Captain Farmer was shifted from the outfield to first base, and with him as a nucleus an infield was built ujj. When the season ended the A M team was champion of North Carolina, and considered by many to be the best team in the South Atlantic division. The track team was very successful with such men as Sumner, McDougall, Potter, and Hurtt as principal point gainers. It was probablj ' the best track team we have ever produceil at this institution, all comers Ijeing defeated. Football is a game that calls for self-control, mental agility, courage, speed, and muscle. These are the requisites of a successful man in life, and are the qualities that A M tries to develop. For these reasons more interest is taken in football than in anj ' other form of athletics at A M. For years this college has been noted for its excellent football team. The team of 1914 was very good. It won no chamijionship, but always played a good game. The most represent- ative game played was against the United States Naval Academy, who defeated us 14 to 12. We also lost to Virginia Polytechnic Institute, 3 to 0, and to Wash- ington and Lee, 7 to 0; but every game was a fight to the end, and A M was never defeated until the whistle blew. It is impossible to name the stars, for every man acquitted himself with glory. But one figure stands out far above the rest. Every one recognizes that the little red headed quarter back. Van Brocklin, is the best field general and all arountl football player who ever wore 161 the Red and White. 1914 footl)all team. To him l)elongs, largely, the honor and the glory of the A M teams win games and rejoice; A M teams lose games knowing that they are outclassed in skill and muscle, but never in effort. It can always be said, Thev fought a good fight. Let it ever be so! W. W. R. 1914 Football Squad 162 I MANAGI RS i F ' 1 Miss Martha Wall wallburg, n. c. Sponsor ' Varsity Baseball Team 1915 1G4 H.

Hollow loud notes and mellow; Show that you are glad you belong. Alumni from ocean to ocean; Old men and J ' oung, all are hero In handing to A I your devotion Rip off the roof — don ' t you care. E. P. Holmes, ' 17 The Celebration Anniversary bells are ringing In the halls of A M And the classes now are forming And the men are joining them; Youthful boys and gray-haired students— Now the old is with the new — And the class of seventeen is With the class of ninety-two. From the banks of the Hiwassee And the Albemarle Sound — From all states and remote regions Are the men a-gathering round To be present at the meeting And review their old, old way And join their friends and comrades On the celebration day. Welcome! Welcome! are the greetings From the new unto the old By the junior and the senior While the younger men are bold And extend a hand of friendship To the men they ' re glad to own As their worthy predecessors And as friends they ' ve never known. Many words of friendly greetings Fill the air in PuUen Hall While the happy boys are marching Into line at bugle ' s call To be ready for the drill grounds AU in mirthful jollity We give parades in honor of Our dear and great Alinnni. We thank you, dear Alumni, For you presence with us here And we hope again to greet you In these halls some future year. When we ' ve grown more old and serious (As we will by nature ' s way) We hope to greet you with such greetings As you ' ve .shown to us toda) ' . Now w-e love our Alma Mater Better than we did before For we know the men who built her And the honest boys that bore To our hands a golden treasure Oh! May we ne ' er blot or maim That great, pui ' e and priceless treasure She possesses in her name. — Anonymous.

WE MADE THE ENGRAVINGS FOR THIS BOOK. E= The Young Man The young man ariseth in the morning, and adorneth himself in golden raiment. His soclvS are as white as the driven snow and as liglit as the wafted zephyrs of a summer eve. His gloves are of yellow chamois, sewed with black silk. And he is some kid. His hat is of fuzz, bedecked with a cute little bow which followeth on behind. Upon his arm is worn very becomingly a cane of shellaced hickory. And his suit is made in accord with the high cost of living — the material is used mincingly. It fittcth him quick. He betaketh himself to the apothecary ' s, where he surpriseth a fair young damsel, dressed with the delicacy of a gazelle. She pretendeth to be in the act of making an order, but she will suffer herself to be blown to a nut sundae by the young man. As they pass out, the young man givcth the soda jerker a wink, which he understandeth and is satisfietl. For he knoweth that the young man is broke, and that he will receive his pay- ment when father ' s monthly pension check anivcth.

The College Boy ' s Lament Tell me not in joj ' ful numbens, College is a rosy dream; For P. G. never sleeps nor slumbers, Tho ' he smiles at you serene. In accents fierce he doth remind us, We must meet inspection sure; Else, the marks we leave behind us, No eraser can obscure. Dare we speak in childish prattle. Just in fun, that ' s what I mean; Go thou like dumb driven cattle, Get thee hence and see the dean. F. E. W., ' 15.

It is with such a feeling, after a long and arduous task of assembling, compiling, arranging and rearranging, adding and subtracting, proofreading, smothering profanity, and informing multitudes of interested friends that this iniblication will be out in a few weeks, we now bestow upon you the fruits of oiu- labor. While this volume does not embody the style of a Dickens, the pohsh of a Milton, or the creative genius of a Poe, it depicts the life at A M as we have seen it, known it, and lived it. However, the editors do not desire to assume all of the blame or credit which may be attached to the publication of this book; so, if for no other reason than that they shoulder their part, we wish to acknowdedge our accomplices. An examination of the book speaks its own praises to our printers, Edwards Broughton Printing Company, of Raleigh, N. C. They have done their work excellently, and have enabled us to accomplish the unheard of stunt of getting the Agro.meck out on time. For the cuts we are indebted to the Electric City Engraving Comjiany of Buffalo, N. Y. Tyree of Raleigh, N. C, deserves .special credit for the high class photographic work foiuid throughout these pages. We also wish to thank Dr. D. H. Hill and Prof. H. R. Fulton for their willing assistance. Give these par- ties as much of the blame as possible, and we will take the rest. Now, we, of the Senior Class, after four years of close association and profitable preparation, through the grace of the faculty, are ready to go forth from the doors of our Alma Mater to take our places on the firing line. Let us do so with this thought in mind: Some ships sail east, and others west. While the selfsame breezes blow; ' Tis the set of sail, and not the gale That bids them where to go. As the winds of the sea are the ways of men As we slowly pass through life, ' Tis the set of the soul decides the goal. And not the storms or strife.
