We have aimed to reproduce here the Oberlin ofthe present with an occasional glimpse backward or an expectant presage of the future. We have seen many times her strongholds and her failings, the former vve must sacredly guard, the latter we must strive one by one to destroy and leave behind. Oberlin, as we and those who have so kindly aided us have seen her, Oberlin with her maze of activities and interests, Oberlin with her sane, pure, noble, Christian spirit, we give to you.

' ' .11 A ' 'x . .- -' ,,' S Chairman of the General Committee on Arrangements for the coming Reunion, I am asked by the editor of the Annual to say a few words to the Alumni and former students. You come back to an Oberlin which islboth new and old. New, in the sense of new equipment, new buildings, new Faculty, new students. Prob- ably even those of you who have been out but a few years will be' sur- prised to see what changes those few years have brought about in the Faculty, and how many are the teachers with whom you have no personal acquaintance. You will find, too, the buildings increased- a new chapel and a new library building, while the old. library building is to be remodeled for zoological purposes, and so be- come, to all intents and purposes, a new building. And if you take the trouble to go through the buildings, you will be im- pressed with the extent of new equipment. To give but a single example: if you go into the basement of Peters Hall, you will find two or three large rooms given up to the physical laboratory, where formerly there were great coal bins, and if you go into the upper stories, you will find there ample facilities for the Dsychological laboratory, which was housed so long in a little room up under the roof. But while all these things will suggest a new Oberlin to you, there will be much also to suggest the old Qberlin. The Campus, with its stately elms, the older veterans in the Faculty, together with a goodly number of the younger men who in your days were College or society mates: these will be reminders to you of the Qberlin which was. And if you get into the Society Love- Feasts, or hear the casual comments of the younger Alumni, or of ' 12 present students, you will discover that the spirit of youth does not greatly change, and that the same ideals and aspirations are to be found in the student body now as in days of yoreg and therefore, I believe, you will conclude that in spite of new faces and new build- ings, the Oberlin that was is in essence the sanie as the Oberlin that is, and you will have confidence t-o look forward with joyous expec- tation to the Uberlin that is to be. llfhether or not the old and the new thus seem to you to blend, I hope that the work which you find here will seem to you worth doing, and the leadership wise and progressive. To an extent not paralleled anywhere else, Qberlin draws its students from a world constituency. And it is able to do this because its Alumni and former students are so loyal. In this loyalty, based not on mere sentiment, but in a genuine confidence in the College, the Faculty and the President, is our strength and our hope for the future. i 2. - ut yta a .v 2 48 4,, V , . .. i. ,. V . Qin the Qlumni iiaume uf resihent Earrnms HE young men who have this publication in hand X N ' M have asked meito speak a word or two for Oberlin from the standpoint of an outsider. I don't know whether I can very easily put myself ff 1 into that attitude. I ,am reminded of an exper- I M ience at the old Exeter- I-Iall, in the Strand, on washington Qlahhen the occasion of my first visit to London. It was the Wor1d's Mis- sionary Convention, and delegates were there from all the world,- Parthians and Medes and Elamitesu and so forth,-and they were trying to: take care of us in the room of the entertainment committee, when one of the young men of that committee plumply asked me the question, Are you a foreigner ? I thought he ought to know bet- ter, and I said, rather hotly, No g I am an American. I confess' I didn't want anybody who used the English language to call me a foreigner. I have a little of the same kind of feeling when anybody rep- resenting Oberlin wishes me to appear anywhere on her premises as an outsider. I don't know whether I can very well masquerade under that role. I haven't been accustomed to take that line when I have been in Oberlin 5 I have never felt like a proselyte of the gate, and they have never kept me cooling my heels in the Court of the Gentiles. How an Ohio Congregationalist is going to hang about Oberlin in the character of an 'outsider I don't quite understand. For it belongs to us, and we to it, and if we should attempt to deny it our speech would bewray us. And if anybody undertakes to palm off what I have to say here as the testimony of a wholly unbiased and disinterested witness, it will be a case of false pretensesg for I am not at all unbiased, and I a1n very much interested. Of course it is true that I am not a graduate of Oberlin, and that I have never had any official connection with the University. But I am not to blame for that, at least for not being an alumnus, for I think that in the far-off antiquity of 1855, when I was pre- Pafing f0F College, I had never heard of Oberlin. And I suppose I o c u . . .. Q , t it is this misfortune of mine which is alluded to when I am re- ues - . q ted to regard myself as an outsider. There are quite a number l-L of College men in Ohio who are not graduates at Oberlin. And it may be supposed that our judgment of its character and work would be a little less partial than that of its own sons. If that is the sup- position, then I have to say that the testimony of these representa- tives of other Colleges, so far as I have heard it expressed, is sin- gularly cordial as regards Oberlin. I believe that Oberlin enjoys in a very high degree the good opinion of the educators, and the educated men of Ohio. All institutions, except the Deacon's One Hoss Shay have their weakest spots, and doubtless Oberlin, like every other College, is subject to criticism, but I am sure that there is no institution in the State for which one hears more hearty words spoken than for Oberlin College. The undergraduate constituency of Oberlin is of high quality. Most -of the students, of course, come from families of the middle class. Many of them are farmers' sons and daughters, and these are apt to, be earnest and hard-working students. But boys and girls who are brought up in homes where there are no books are at a great disadvantage when they are pursuing their studies g people who are reared in homes where there is some intellectual background are able to make a great deal more -of a College course. And a pretty large proportion of the Oberlin students are the children of minis- ters and other professional men, who have been accustomed, all their lives, to some degree of culture, and who are ready to make a large use of their opportunities. Educators from Eastern Colleges who have visited Oberlin have remarked to me upon the excellent material, from an intellectual point of view, which the University finds to work upon. I The morale of the College has always been high. The pater- nalism of former days, has, no doubt, been gradually and almost ,unconsciously relaxed, and some things are now allowed which would have scandalized the community iifty years ago. And it is altogether probable that in the large number of students now gath- ered about the Campus, cases of misconduct must frequently occur. Nevertheless I doubt if it would be .possible to find grouped any- where on this planet eighteen hundred young men and women living 15 Qbherlin tram the QBut5iiJe Gherlin from the QButsiiJe Clymer ,md Sweeter manlier and womanlier lives than those who C C 5 wear the Oberlin colors. A A The Chzmo-Q in the physical conditions, even Within my memory, D has been vast, My first visit must have been in the early Spring of 18733 it was during the lifetime of President Einn6Y, and if WHS the only time I ever hadthe good fortune of meeting him. Even then the town was excessively plain, and the College buildings were as unattractive as brick and mortar can be made.- There was not a touch of the aesthetic about the premises, and as for the mud-I can best describe that by saying that I started with two horses and a buggy from Oberlin for Elyria at ten o'clock in the evening and reached my destination, eight miles away, at a quarter before one the next morning. The theology of Oberlin, which in those days was supposed to be Orthodox, could have given cogent reasons for believing in depths that are bottomless. . No remark of old Oberlinites now revisiting their Alma Mater is so hackneyed as the expression of their wonder as to what the men and women of sixty' or seventy years ago would say if they could return and behold the beauty and the glory of the town and College. The Oberlin Calendargwhich has been hanging in my office for the last four or five -years, gives evidence of the existence of a community in which the beautiful is neither depressed nor forced, and in which the finer arts are cultivated with intelligent enthusiasm. Inmusic, especially,-Oberlin has come to be known as one of the chief centers west of the Alleghanies. There are not many institutions in the land 'where so much serious attention is given to the higher forms of music. The festivals of the Oberlin Choral Union are events of importance in the musical world. The leadership of Oberlin in religion and philanthropy has long been recognized. It is interesting to note the phases through Wh' ' ' - . . . . wh fC11s10uS fhOugl1t has been passing in Oberlin since 1834. Three re - - - Q at leaders have stood forth as its representatives, Finney. Fairchild an ' - . . . 1 d Kmg- Each of them has made his own contribution to theological prggressg 16 Finney appeared as the foe of the fatalism which was crippling the Calvinistic faith, and asserted human responsibility with a vigor and thoroughness that left nothing to be desiredd Few, if any, of our American theologians have done more to shatter that cast-iron dogmatism which practically said to men, in language that Finney was wont to quote, You can and you can't, You shall and you shan't, You will and you won't, You'll be damned if you do, And you'll be damned if you don't. Cf course this tremendous emphasis on the freedom of the human will was highly heretical, Oberlin has always been heret- ical. But it was spoken with a mighty conviction, which made the world listen and believe. Fairchild fcllowed with 'his breadth and calmness and sweet-' ness, bringing all theology under the ethical test, and making us sure that the judge of all the earth will do right. Some of us will never forget the help that was given to us by his quiet but un- flinching assertions of the righteousness of God against every im- plication of injustice. That, too, gave ground for suspicion in some quarters, there are always people who think it dangerousto be- lieve in a righteous God, but Dr. Fairchild's quiet' testimony did quite as much to ethicise theology as was done by any teacher of his time. . , And now we have the wise and brave leader who holds fast to the old faith while he brings in the new knowledge to illuminate it 3 who shows us how the ethics of the Christ and the discoveries of modern science can live together, each lending light to the other. No finer work in the way of reconciliation is being done in the country to-day than that for which we are indebted to President King. F I hope that the haste and inadequacy of this testimony, thrown together in the midst of my Lenten services-with two meetings 17 QBherIin from the Q9utsihe QE-'berlin from the QE'ut5ilJz Zanme nf resihent :Finney every day-may be forgiven. Some other outsider could have said these things, and others, a great deal better, but not many eguld speak with a deeper sense of gratitude for what Oberlin stands for and what Oberlin has done in laying foundations for the City that is coming' down out of Heaven from God. Mares HF present year marks an epoch in Oberlinls history. It may justly be called the greatest year in her history. Physically, during the past twelve months, we have seen Ober- lin grow in greater measure than ever before. The completion of the Finney Memorial Chapel and the Carnegie Library is an event of which Oberlin has long dreamed. Aside from the indisputable advantages attendant on the daily use of these buildings, they mark the beginning of a period of extension which will ultimately place Oberlin in a class by itself as a type of the ideal American College. The projected Men's building, will, when secured, fill a distinct want in the interests of the men, and if the time ever comes, and we earnestly hope it may, when we can also see on our Campus an up-to-date Technical School, then we shall feel that Fortune has indeed smiled warmly on Oberlin. E The past year has witnessed some memorable changes in the personnel of our Faculty. Through, the happy medium of the Carnegie Foundation it has been possible to reward the faithful services of three of Oberlin's -most eminent Professors,-Dr. George Frederick Wright, Dr. Adelia A. F. Johnston, and Dr. Al- bert Henry Currier. For a period of iifty years Oberlin has grown in greatness and power through the influence of these three per- sons.v The whole world of education has broadened through their continued contributions ' to Scientific, Historical and Religious knowledge. - D A distinct loss was experienced when Dr. Charles E. St. John resigned his chair as Dean of the College' of Arts and Sciences, and Professor of Physics, to accept a position with the Pasadena, Cali- fornia branch of the Carnegie Foundation for original research. Dr. St. John has held a position of peculiar trust and influence in the life of Oberlin College' and town. ' However, allhas not been loss. The general Faculty has been increased in numbers and greatly strengthened by the addition of a number of men of rare ability and wide- experience. The de- partments heretofore of lesser prominence have been built up to the general high average, and 'a wholesome balance of ability and in- terest is now maintained. The student body and the Faculty alike received a rare com- pliment on the eighth of last November, when Oberlin was ad- mitted to membership in Phi Beta Kappa. It is ai distinct recogni- tion of the high standing of the Oberlin Student as among the stu- dents of other American Colleges and Universities, and places him ' 19 Sehentpzfihz wrt nf rngress bebentpiihe years nf 1Brngre55 second to none in the matter of scholarship. It is hoped that this added honor may serve as a legitimate stimulus to increased effort along academic lines. Another field of interest in which Oberlin has made very marked gains is that of athletics. The College athletics are now on a higher plane of sportsmanship than ever before. A wholesome interest in athletics has been encouraged to a point of heathfulness which promises nothing but the best. The various teams have been uniformly successful, and have received much praise wherever they have been for the clean, virile, manly game they have played. Thus the year has been one of noteworthy achievement, of steady growth, of wholesome expansion. H And so it is that, as we come to the time set apart for the ob- servance of the seventy-fifth anniversary of the founding of this great College, our thoughts turn back to those early days when conditions were not as they are now, back to that bright, sunny day in the Spring of 1833 when the doors of the little slab hall were thrown open to the world, and the first students in Oberlin Colle- giate Institute began their work. No one then dared dream that seventy-five years thence thousands of loyal, loving friends and Alumni would gather on the self-same spot to commemorate in fit- ting measure those deeds of bravery and self-sacrifice. The hardy pioneer fathers who hewed out a small section in that vast and swampy wilderness and built the first rough cabins from the logs felled by their own hands, little thought that their tiny clearing would some day become a beautiful College town, that those paths through the woods were the rude beginnings from which should grow long avenues of elms and maples, overarching broad, paved streets 5 that those log cabins were in future years to be succeeded by massive, ivy-covered stone buildings. No more did Father Shipherd and his littleqband of prayerful followers, met on that memorable night in- 183 5, realize that in their deliberations was weighed a cause which was later to shake the nation to its very foundations. But unpropi- tious as were the first beginnings, weary as were those long, toilsome days when the man with the ax was busy from morn till night, hum- ble as were those cabins when compared with our more modern and stately stone structures, few as were the students during the first infant days of our Alma Mater, those great principles, those long, weary, labor-laden hours, those humble cabins and those few, hardy freedom-loving men and women were the touchstone from which the modern Oberlin with all her glory was to spring. 20 he . won of 1 gat 26 I Oberlin's history has been a history of honorable progress, of great motives and great men, of fearless faith in God, and steadfast- ness to His Word. Wfith such foundation, such motives, such men, such a faith, Oberlin has every title and every right to a just pride in her history. She stands to-day better than she ever was before, com- bining all the good of past achievement with the spirit and determina- tion of future progress. The old and the new, inseparably united, and working with but one end in VTCWV-GBERLIN FOREVER. fx Rev. Samuel Fuller Porter, O. T. S., '36, en- joys the honor of being the oldest living gradu- ate of Gberlin. He is further honored by be- ing the last survivor of that memorable group of students who came to Oberlin from Lane Sem-- inary, Cincinnati, Qhio, and formed the first class of students of a c t u a l College rank. The Rev. Mr. Porter was born in Wfhitestown, N. Y., September IS7, 1813, and took his un- dergraduate xv o r lc a t Uneida Institute. Ever since his graduation here. he has been engaged, until very recently, in some form of religious work, serving variously as Volunteer Chaplain during the last year of the VVar, as a Missionary in the West, and as Pastor of Congre- gational churches throughout the country. He is now living at 26 South Pleasant Street. Oberlin, Ohio. 21 QBhe1fIin's Qblhest cbrahuate '41, :Ii YW .1 A ' X w .fry F .......-Q fe. OR a College generation the students of Oberlin have not been able to meet for chapel services in their own chapel building. The present Senior class entered College after the old building was destroyed. During the interim chapel services have been held in the First Church and for a time during the present year in XVarner Concert Hall and in Sturges Hallj After a four years' exile the College is soon to occupy its new chapel home, the Finney Memorial Chapel. A This beautiful building occupies the site of the former Finney House, well known to Oberlin Alumni for many years as the home of President Finney, and was built as a memorial to him by his son, Frederick Norton Finney. There are perhaps no recollections of Oberlin College life that come oftener to the memory of her students after they have gone out into the world, and no associations dearer than those that are connected with the chapel. Here is the real heart of the College. Here all the students of all departments meet with the Faculties as a Christian College, recognizing each day the Christian principles and Christian leadership for which the College stands. The com- mon interests of -the entire College are voiced here, and here for four years the student meets his classmates and learns to know the stu- dent body. The new student lirst feels he is a member of a College when he takes his place in his first chapel service. The stranger in Oberlin gets his first idea of the College as something distinct from buildings and grounds when he sees the long lines pouring out across the Campus at close of chapel. The influence of the service for four years and the memories connected with it become for a majority of the students, one of the most precious possessions of student days. The new chapel gives us an opportunity to make this feature of our College life count for even more in the future than it has in the past history of the College. l D jfinmzp emurial Qlbapel ftEhtna1riJ Q.

Here we are at last. The voices were those of Dr. Atwood and Mr. Stimson, and the year was I882. They entered the great gate in the wall and jostled against the long-queued crowd as they made their way down the narrow street to the inn. They were really in Taiku, that great Chinese city where they were to live and work and found an Eastern Ober- linf' - Pk Dk Pk Pk Eighteenyears pass. Cn the great street of Taiku the doors of a shop stand open, but the sounds within are not those of trade 5 in- stead are the words of prayer and a hymn. It is communion Sunday, and one hundred and twenty men and women bow the knee to drink f'His cup.', The man speaking is a strong, stalwart Chinese, stand- ing over six feet in height. Eighteen years ago he was ia wealthy man, havinghis caravans of camels going back and forth. He, Mr. Liu, was at home near Taiku, smoking opium day and night, and gambling. All his property was being lost, and his children were running loose on the streets. Suddenly he came to himself one day, resolved that he would go to the hospital established by these Ober- lin men, and break away from his awful habit. Pacing back and forth, up and down the brick floor of his room, one night in the hospital, he was all but beside himself with the craze 24 for the drug, when his nephew, having secreted a little opium on his person, gave it to Mr. Liu. Take this and you will be all right, said his nephew. The pain-racked man raised it to his lips, and then, summoning all his powers for the final struggle, threw it down and ground it under his heel. I-Ie resumed his torturous task and paced back and forth, up and down, all the long weary night. In the morning he was a free man-free from opium. And now he was preaching on that communion Sunday-he, a veritable Moody in Shansi. - In aacourt near by is Miss Bird with her boys' school, where are forty splendid young men, among them Mr. Kung, 'o6, then a fine boy with carefully braided queue and shaven head, and the garments of a scholar, long to his ankles. A loyal Christian lad is he, when at New Year's time he goes to his Uncle's and is commanded by him to worship at the family an- cestral tablets. I-Iis black eyes grow tender and appealing as he looks up into the Uncle's face and says, O, Uncle, I will obey you in all-all but this-but I must worship the one true God not made with hands. Yonder is the court where sick people are coming, weary with the ills of life. The shrunken, emaciated faces and forms tell that opium and disease have done their work, but in the distressed com- pany stand two of Oberlin's true men-Mr. Clapp, ,85, and Mr. Wfil- liams, '88, They are tenderly caring for the sick, and by their side, all unseen, walks the Christ. The sick ones go away helped and cheered, to tell in their village homes of the strange men from the Western country who cared for them night and day and whose heart is love. Two days' journey south from Taiku, the rumbling of the great wheels of the awkward cart stopped in front of the large city of Fen Chou Fu. I'Iere, living among the Chinese, was Oberlin's Dr. At- wood with his hospital, here Mr. Atwater and Mr. Price, ,QI, teach- ing the boys' school. The girls' school is not far away, that little black eyed girl whose name is I-Ialf Cash CI-IO of a centj was, when a few days old, tied up in a piece of matting and thrown out 25 013132 Eastern Qbherlin Glibe Qiastetn Qgherlin by the road-side to perish. A Good Samaritan, walking by, picked up the little creature and sent her to this school.p Now she can read and write and sing, and is merry all day long. Beside her sits the blind girl, Golden Circle, sold into a magistrate's family, then turned out to beg and to sleep in an opium den. She finds her way into the school yard and begs a few cash, She gets, instead, a welcome into ai home, and -her happy face tells her gratitude, her life is her thanks. Seventy-five Christians gather in this chapel on Sun- day-brave, honest men and Women-so unlike their neighbors Who go to the heathen temples. - :if if Pk Pk But what is that noise and commotion in the stillness of the sum-i mer night of July, Igool Swords lg Lanterns!

He has walked ' 26 the live hundred miles from Shansi under peril of his life and this is his story: Ten of 0berlin's men and Women, and over one hundred and fifty of the native Christians dead!

Revenge on such a people, on such a nation that thus treats the guests of itscountry? But hark! A voice is heard through it all. Qberlin is speaking. Lis- ten! I have given of my best to save the great nation of China. It is not lost. From this sowing will come a harvest. My best sons and daughters shall go again to far-away Shansif' . It is IQOI. Dr. Atwood has gone back from America to Tient- sin. He can go no further. The-Way is too unsafe. Suddenly the door of his room is thrust open and in walks a hunch-backed farmer, a Christian from Shansi. All the long Weary way over the moun- tains, through the carefully guarded mountain passes, fearing not the danger of losing his life, he has come, if only, only, he may see once more his true friend, Dr. Atwood. The Doctor listens to his story of those days of carnage and the loyal bravery of the Christians, choosing death rather than life at the expense of their faith. He looks into the face of this earnest Christian man, and says, No matter what the consequence or the peril, I go this day back to Shansi to those sheep scattered upon the mountains without a shepherd. Again the mules slip and slide down the mountains five hundred miles west of Peking. Again Dr. Atwood takes the journey into Shansi, the same journey he took in 1882. lt is a sad scene that 27 The Eastern Qbherlin Qllbe Eastern Qbherlin greets his eyes as he enters the gates of Taiku and Fen Chou Fu, the chapels pulled down, the boys' and girls' schools scattered, many of the teachers killed.

The hospitals here and at Fen Chou Fu are opened, and filled with sick people who come from miles around to be healed in body, mind, and spirit. Here on Sunday may be seen live hundred trying to crowd into the little chapel, built to accommodate half that number. On all sides men and women are throwing away their useless idols which had been of no avail to them, and in that town is now at Christian Church.

Oberlin was never more dear to a great time of progress, and far-away Shansi feels the thrill of the hour. Everything is ready for progress on a large scale in this Eastern Oberlin, even as it is in these halls of learning here. Ober- lin can to-day raise her standard still higher upon the sure founda- tion which she has already laid. Let the very best of Oberlin's men and women, sent by the Alumni, filled with the spirit which has al- ways characterized her students, go to those hospitals and schools, lead the youth of China up from the primary schools to the Acad- emy and into a College--a College which shall stand in China as Oberlin stands in the United States. Let them go into the villages and cities, to those men and women of that great nation, giving to them the secret and impetus which shall lift them up into the fore- front of the nations of the East.

Carnegie Library NTO the new Carnegie Library, the College will take about 100,000 bound volumes, 95,000 unbound volumes, 5,000 vol- umes of newspapers, 5,000 maps, charts and plans, 25,000 unbound newspapers and over 25,000 unbound magazines, or a total of more than 250,000 items. Although each year the accessions of the library become larger, it is hoped that the new building will hold all that may be added for the next fifteen years. New features of the work which will be made possible by the more roomy quarters are: A I. Extension of the privileges ofthe library to the village. By an arrangement with thei Board of Education, the proceeds of a tax-levy of one mill on all the taxable property in Oberlin will be paid to the College and in return the free use of the library will be granted to residents of Oberlin. This will make necessary in the building a reading-room for the children, with an ample provision of books suited to the mind of a child. There will also be a special room where on open shelves, works of fiction, popular biography, travels and history can be found and from which a selection for home reading may be made. This room will probably be a very popular room with College students, and will be a delightful place in which to browse among the new books. 2. Bringing the Seminars into closer relations with the Library. To do research work requires time and the consultation of many -books. In the present building it has been difficult to find working room, and it has been necessary each time work was at- tempted, to bring together and to put away all books needed. Such conditions have made extended research work almost impossible. The new building will contain a number of seminar rooms where such work can be carried on under the most favorable conditions, and where books can be kept at hand as long as needful. 31 Qiamegiz library Qgariab 9. Bout l l Qhherlin anh the jliegrn Bunker 1113. washington N reply to your letter permit me to say that no one feels more deeply than myself the debt which Negro education and the Negro owe to Oberlin University. At the time Oberlin opened her doors to Colored students, the state of Ohio was filled with fugitive slaves, who from early days had been pouring into the free soil of the Northwest territory, and settlements of freedmen were scattered all over the state. Oberlin began, before emancipation had cast the shackles from the limbs of the slave, the work which was to set his mind and spirit free, and secure forever to the United States as a whole the fruits of a long and bloody vvar. The University has been ever since that time a great moral support' to the work ofedu- cation of the Negro in the South. It has furnished, to alarge degree, the teachers, black and white, who, in spite of difficulties and in spite of obstruction, have steadily carried forward that work. I believe I voice the feeling of every intelligent Colored man and of every man who understands, in its true significance, the his- tory of this country from I86I to 1865, when I say I hope Oberlin and the spirit for which it has stood may never perish from this continent. 32 ilanme nf iBrez4i7Jent ifiing Zlannuz nf iBres'ihent jairnbilh General Qssoeiations Qlumni 3 3 Qlollege Qssoclatlon tions President, Vice Presidents, :I Secretary, Charles M.

Davis QHarvardj William J..Hutchins CYalej BERLIN CQLLEGE received a signal honor last September in the prompt and hearty vote with which the National Council of Phi -Beta Kappa, in. session at the birthplace of that venerable order, granted her application for a charter. The new chapter was organized early in the College year, and was formally installed on the eighth of November, 1907. I At its origin Phi Beta Kappa was merely a Grleek-letter fraternity, the prototype of the-numerous modern organizations of that kind. lt was founded 'ati the .College of William and Mary, Williamsburg, Va., in 1776. In the -early part of the nineteenth century its first branches, at Yale, Harvard and Dartmouth, revo- lutionized the society, discarding' secrecy, and making excellence in scholarship the sol-e title to the membership. In 1882, under the leadership of Harvard, a national union was formed of the twenty- four independent chapters then in existence. To-day there are in this union seventy-one chapters, with a nienibersliip of over fourteen thousand. 50 The badge of the society is the familiar golden key. On one side, in an upper corner, it shows a group of stars, toward which, in the opposite lower corner, an index pointsg between stand the Greek letters Phi Beta Kappa, which are the initials of the motto of the society, Qtlvmirfda B600 Ifufiepvvjfrys, Hllhilosophy the Guide of Life. On the other side are the letters S. P., representing the early name of the society, Societas Pkilosophiae, and the date, 1776. In the Oberlin chapter the electoral body consists of the Faculty members. They have power to elect to membership each year one- eighth or less, at their discretion, of the Senior class, .taking into account in making their choice nothing but the scholarship and the moral character of the candidates. Alumni who rank in the first eighth of their respective classes may also be elected to mem- bership. It is hoped that the new chapter will prove a peculiarly potent force in the intellectual life of the College. Wliile it willnaturally affect directly only those students who would in any case rank high in scholarship, it can hardly fail, through raising the scholarly ideals of the more gifted members of a class, to exercise indirectly a powerful influence on the 'whole body.

Rahill F all virtues, Zeno made choice of silence, for by it, said he, I hear other men's imperfection, and conceal my own. This is the policy that has been followed by the Student Senate this year, so that We are not surprised to hear some remark, ls the Student Senate still alive P lfVe want to say that we are alive, have held regular meetings, and have always spent our time in profitable discussion and decision. It was through the Senate that the student body came to realize the futility of pushing the question of Senior examinations further with the Faculty. At other times we have held our peace because we have felt that the prime purpose of the Senate was not to stir up trouble so that it would appear to be doing something, but rather to quiet the turmoil after the difficulty had arisen. In other words, we have spoken only when we really had something to say. The Student Senate still has and always will have its place here in the life, of Oberlin College. It is the only direct representa- tive body of the men of the institution which the Faculty can feel at liberty to call upon and consult with in regard to student affairs. As long as the students and Faculty exist the Student Senate should be needed and used.

Allen Vice President, Lucy C. Ainsworth Secretary,' Esther N. Robson HE need has long been felt, both by Faculty and student body for some means of conveying to the Faculty the student point of view. As a result of this need, through the efforts of the Dean of College women, a Board of College Wfomen was formed in the winter of 1906-7. In view of the desire that it be as repre- sentative a body as possible, it was decided that its members should consist of the vice presidents, members ar-oflicio, three Seniors, two Juniors, and one member from each of the lower classes. VVith the ultimate purpose of securing closer cooperation be- tween the Faculty and the College women, the Board has met regu- larly each month. At these meetings, through informal discussions u-pon any impending subjects, the student sentiment has been con- veyed to Miss Fitch. Thus the Board serves as an advisory com- mittee to the Dean. lt is hoped that the Board may prove beneficial in creating a better student sentiment as well. LUCY C.

I have called, I said, to inquire on behalf of the Annual what is your opinion of the class of IQO8.,, Well, said the Professor, if I only possessed the pyrotechnic elo- quence of Koehler or Tracy Strong, perhaps I could do justice to the sub- ject, but as I cannot compete with such masters of the vocal organs, I can only tell you in a very simple way. The class of 1908 has always been a favorite class with me and these are some of my reasons: In the lirst place, it has been a hard-working class. It has not for- gotten that its lirst business here is to study. The class-room work of its members has been strong. In oratory, debate and society work its example has been inspiring, and in administration it has been thoroughly successful. BROWNING: Rabbi Ben Ezra In the next place, it has been what I call a broad-gauge class. By that I mean that it has been able to see beyond itself. In everything it has shown good, practical common-sense. It has had plenty of fun, but has not carried its fun to an excess. It has had good athletes, but they have not felt that athletics was the only thing of importance in College. I have greatly enjoyed the freedom from snobbishness which the class has manifested, and the places which have been voted to fellows who were largely self-supporting. Then, too, it has been a class which has known how to do good 'team work.' The members of the class have pulled together. Cliques and factions have been mostly non- existent. Though the class has main- tained entire independence and has held its own opinions, it has worked with the Faculty and not against it. Perhaps that is as much as you will have room to print, but I would like you to add that the class will leave behind it most enjoyable mem- ories a'nd will be hidden God-Speed by those of us who tarry by the stuff.

Ray Lee Edwards After taking two years of his course in Oberlin, Edwards went to Delaware and entered Ohio VVesleyan. VVhat his reason was matters not, suffice it to say, he repented and returned just in time to enroll among the worthies of IQOS. His past, however, is now forgiven, and as a member of 1908 his future is secure. Constance Marie Morris She plays Basket Ball Like a gust in a squall.

With malice toward none, with charity toward all, Hu- bert has entered with a vengeance into College doings. In Y. M., Choir and Musical Union, Literary Society, U. L. A., class athletics, and Varsity Base Ball Hoober has made his mark. Emma Bouquet Lee 1 A brilliant girl with a brilliant ancestry and a famous name. Emma is a girl who doesn't have to work herself or the Profs to get a 5. Her scholarly ability is equalled only by her engaging social qualities. She has been to Columbia and, with that common sense so characteristic of her, pronounces Oberlin still in the van.

Yes, Irma is quality, not quantity, but just the same, she's always there. 3 Frank Howard Waters Bud Waters is one of the favorite children of 0berlin's athletic meadows. He bids fair to tie with Clayt Fauver as the possessor of the largest number of O's 'on record. Howard was essential- ly designed for a social conqueror, but the fairies don't seem to be able to get over that awful hair. But the fact remains that he is a peerless man- ipulator of the spheroid in any of its forms. Carrie Hamilton VVatson Watsie is the paradoxical personification of tenderness combined with unrelenting dignity. A business woman through and through. We all know that when she puts her shoulder to the wheel, things must go or break. If Oberlin had a host of such women to turn loose on the world this June, something worth while would happen. Andrew Dorr Collins A gay Freshman, an awakened Sophomore, a studious Junior, a noble Senior. Andrew hails from St. Joseph, Michigan, yet he claims he was never married. As to the future he says, '4W'ell, by gud, l dou't know? Andrew plans to study law.

She took her only flight from the realms of prose and fact in the Clouds last year. Professor Martin has an unmitigable grudge against that still small voice of Lenna's. Charles Irvin Miller Miller is one of those men who can work his way through College and specialize in Mathemat- ics at the same time. He knows more about dif- ferential equations than you do about short di- vision. He picked out his profession long ago and will some day be a master bridge-builder. Mary Ellis Purcell We have no adjectives of fine enough calibre to describe Mary Ellis. I-t is -hard to say whether we love or reverence her most. Perfect sincerity, the finest consideration, the gentlest friendliness and self-forgetful generosity-these are a few of the qualities that endear her to us. George VVesley Garthwaite Garthwaite claims the mosquito-infested state of New Jersey as his residence. Quiet and unassum- ing, he is a steady plugger and sticks to his work closer than a brother. Noisy does not believe in the right of free speech. and we can say no more than. Some llowers bloom unseen.

He has been night engineer at the Water Wforks and has managed to engineer a few enter- prises of a private nature. Dad is Whole-souled, generous and husky. His friends will never for- get him. Mabel Gertrude Whiting To know her at all is to love her a great deal. She takes Mike and is very wise, but it hasn't hurt her a bit. She can even recite the Aelioian constitution by heart. Yet in spite of these su- perior accomplishments, she still remains the most delightful companion imaginable. james Hugh Smith Probably no man in Oberlin has more friends and fewer enemies than 4'Simp Smith. He is one of the modest and reserved kind, who says nothing unless it is good and works hard and con- sistently. Hugh's athletic abilities are excelled by none. If you can claim the friendship and con- fidence of Simp Smith you have something really worth while. 80 Ruth Alice Bullock An inborn grace that nothing lacked Gf culture or appliance,- The Warmth of genial courtesy, The calm of self-reliancef' To the which We all say a fervent- Amen!

Stella Eikenberry Eike', is fond of everything that is deep and difficult, everything that is beautiful and every- thing that is good.

Mabel Schultz Gerhard Demure, winsome, tactful, always with the right word at the right time.

Grover H. Hull ' Grover Hull has gone through four years of College without forgetting what he came for. That is to say, he gets his lessons and minds his own business. He is distinguished for scholarship and modesty, qualities which will stand him in good stead in his chosen profession, the law. The Allen Girls The Allen Girls, subdivided for the conven- ience of the faculty into E. I. and E. N., are of the very salt of the earth. Elizabeth, or E. J., as she is known in educa- tional circles, early wore the reputation of a shark. But she is such a modest shark and such a jolly good fellow, too, that nobody hesitates to call her the hull thing. Ethel formsithe practical side of the family. She can manage high finance, make delicious seafoam and fudge, and presidelat the table with utmost ease. . 86 Frieda Louise Martini She talks with her eyes and nose and mouth, She talks with her specs and hands. Some day she'll cheer the heathen up In dark, unChristian lands. Don Cameron Allen Allen is a quiet man, with serious and studious propensities.

HOLMES: Departed Days E came to us almost three years ago,-a timid, new-born thingg but his self-consciousness developed with remarkable rapidity, and we discovered, to our delight, a unique personality, an individuality, distinct and all his own. How well we remember when he appeared at the welcoming receptions on the first Saturday of the College year! He was a fascinating young person,f-bubbling over with life and enthusiasm and giving promise of that rollicking fun and abundant good spirits, which we have come to identify with him. Yes, he was glad to be here and we were glad to have him, and we have been ever since. His sheer joy of living makes all our work brighter, and no hours are happier than those we spend with him. He is a social being, and his sympathies are broad enough to take in everything human, but most of all, he is intensely loyal to himself, and even the slightest claim which we can make to any connection or relation with him, insures his most hearty welcome, his untiring friendship, and many a gay and joyous hour. And he is here to the death 5 having once belonged to him, one need never fear to be disowned. 4 , I He is full of ambition and enterprise, fertile in plans for adding to the value of his rapidly passing years, and ever zealous for new undertakings. If he has not distinguished himself in athletics, it is doubtless because he has not needed such an organized channel for the escape of superfluous energy, nor such machinery for the de- velopment of College and class loyalty g his own ingenuity has been sufficient unto him. 100 I-Ie has also his earnest side and he is attaining his majority, jumgp the responsibilities of life are beginning to be laid upon him, and QEIH55 one by one, as they appear, latent powers are transformed into accomplishment. rThus, with the hope that none of the glory of his youth may pass away, we look forward with confidence to the attain- ments of his maturer years-for he is the Genius of IQOQ. . PROFESSOR FLGRENCE M. FITCH r CTranslation from I-Ierodotusb F that class which all esteem the most matriotic, I shall now make more particular mention. All that I had heard from the Faculty concerning the Juniors was confirmed by my own ob- servation. The men are usually confined to one mode of dress, but, at times, they wear a coat called the slicker. Their meals are eaten publicly in the halls with the women instead of- in the retirement of a frat. house. They have two sorts of language, one appropriate toceremonies, the other to common occasions. The men also excel in games and all feats of strength. Both men and women are re- markable for their powers in rhetoric and philosophy. Their venera- tion for their Professors is superstitious to an extreme. F I proceed to describe their festivals. In the course of a year they celebrated several, but the festival of Thanksgiving was the first in dignity and importance. Those who met to celebrate at this time, sent on the stage a number of men and women who acted a play. The rest clapped their hands. Afterwards they attended a feast of costly viands,'but without wines. A second festival was in honor of Leap Year. To the women was left the entire manage- ment in preparation, while the men at home engaged in the husi- ness of smoking. There are many other customs and events which might be described. Every reader must determine for himself with respect to the credibility of what I have related: I heard these things from many sources and think it necessary to transcribe the result of my inquiries.

SHERMAN HE class of 1910, bred up in the true old Oberlin spirit, has always put duty before pleasure. In our Freshman year it seemed to be our duty to 'show what a real live class could do. Accordingly we thoroughly trounced each class team in turn till the clear title to every class series was ours. Next we turned our attention to certain abuses in the institution. The College had long been afflicted with a dead Sophomore class. As public benefactors, in solemn funeral procession, we carried the unsparked clod to its last resting place. IQOQ is no more! Qur .first duty this year was to show that at last there was something doing in theuway of a Sophomore class. Witli duty ever befor-e us we set out to lead the docile Freshies in the way they should go. We have at all times been prepared to use the rod, but such unexampled humility in such-tender years was rather to be encouraged than chastised. In fact, after showing them their proper place by taking the tug-of-war and sending around a little private note called a Proclamation, we unbended to the extent of giving roast pig to the roasted lambkins. With characteristic unselfish devotion to duty we gave up our stars-Gray, Vradenburg, Morrisonand others-to Varsity athletics. Meanwhile, just to show that the rest of the class was still vigorous, we took the inter-class meet by an easy margin. On Varsity debate and in oratory we had representatives surpassed by none. Gur original genius evolved the Who's Wl1o, which has made a per- manent place for itself as well as a name for the class. . of the fairer sex too much could not be said--especially after the famous Leap Year party. And with the inspiration of their presence too much cannot be expected of the class in the future- in the line of duty at least. VVILLIAM S.

We might Qiigurativelyj pat them on the head and say, Child, you are getting several shades of verd- ancy worn away g go along quietly about your business, keep busy and humble, for you have still certain information to acquire. We might for the ediiication of past-Freshmen relate sundry happenings, if it were -allowed to reveal the secrets of the classroom. Or again it might be entirely in order to recount the accomplishments of the year thus far, to record the difficulties met with, facediand over- come. ' , It is scarcely possible as yet to recognize with clearness that something which we are accustomed to call the spirit of the class, that which later in the'College life so often differentiateslsharply one class from another. A sufficiently long time has not elapsed since that day when many. wild-eyed members of the class-to-be were to be seen rushing about from room to room, not knowing pre- cisely what they sought, merely feeling instinctively that they must keep on seeking, even though they do mistake Professor Caskey for President King, or ask Professor Wolfe how he is classified. Laugh not, worthy Senior, your development once lay farther back in the formative period Cevenj than now and these same walls could te-ll many a tale! The class of 1911 is finding itself and is already manifesting itS PTCSCHCS in noteworthy fashion in the various lines of activity in the College- It SL1fHCCS merely to mention here recent events in debate and in track and held athletics, in which members of the class have H2 approached or actually attained Varsity form. What may we not expect from a class that has begun thus early to thrust itself age gressively into the College arena? Upper classmen, look to your laurels 3 you whom tradition appoints to set the pace may yet need to acknowledge this class as the leader Qpre-eminentb in brain and brawn, counsel and conduct. I A PROFESSOR WILLIAM D. CAIRNS CAME to Oberlin College to enter the Freshman year, ' The Sophomore 'e up an' sez, We Want no infants here. The Junior looked the other Way, an' owned me with a sigh, The Senior patted me on the head,'an' told me not to cry. O itls Freshie this, an' Freshie that, an' 'fFreshie out o' the way, - But it's I-Iurrah for the class of Nineteen 'Leven ! when our class teams Win the day. I went into a College hall, as sober as could be, I asked for place to board and room, but they 'adn't none for me. No permissions for a Freshman, an' a special set of rules, But When' there's honors to be Won, the Freshmen ain't such fools. l O it's Freshie this, an' Freshie that, an' Freshie, you're out o' the scheme, - But it's a member of Nineteen 'Leven that's on the debating team. rf I An' so I sez this Warnin' to my Upper-classman Friend, If you are green an' simple, you're now too old to mend. But if sometimes our conduck isn't all your fancy paints, VV e are still so young, the Faculty may make us into saints. O it's Freshie this, an' Freshie that, an' anything you please,- But the Freshie ain't a bloomin' fool-you bet the Freshie sees! CLARISSA XV.

Genus: Homo Species: Theologicus OUND in small colonies throughout North America and Eu- rope. Naturally gregarious. VVest of the Appalachians the tendency is toward early mating. In northern Ohio a small group ap- pears late in September and migrates again early in May. During the summer the communfstic life is interrupted. The flzeologicz' are sober, spare and ill-kempt in aspect. If carefully handled they are, how- ever, strangely docile. For the most part they are awkward in their movements, yet in their feeding-places many of them add a certain grace to their mastication. Opinion differs as to the value of these animals. They are used as decorations for churches, and when properly treated will stand considerable inflation. Some, however, regard them as parasites which should be speedily exterminated. The species has been some- what depleted of late, the birth-rate being very low. However, the struggle for existence is rendered precarious even now, acute dys- pepsia frequently hindering the assimilation of much that is offered in friendliness to these half-domesticated animals. The small colony at Oberlin, O., includes the noblest of the species. Most of these have their lairs under the rafters of a Col- lege building there. Those already mated prefer the outskirts of the village. These particular flzcologicz' have an almost human aspect. They are capable of the utmost devotion, and seem to be of ant-like industriousness. After spending a few winters in this colony the individuals scatter widely. Later, however, they tend to re-colonize in new habitats. ln many localities in America. and notably also in China, small groups are to be seen. The intellectual powers of the Oberlin flzvulagzh' are of unusual dimensions. lt is even held by some that instances have been known where these strange animals were able to write legihly. The statement is denied by several of the Oberlin faeulty. .-Xll lln'nln,e'1'r1'z11'e gifted with loud voices: and fer the most part the species is exceedingly garrulous. ROSS W. SX N DIZRSON ll?

Reid OTHING daunted by the sinister grouping of the figuies in their class numerals, the class of 1913 courageously set them- selves to preserving the high standards of the beloved Academy. under the leadership of those masters of learning who then inspired us with such awe and even fear, but who now have won our respect and admiration. As we gradually overcame the sensations caused by our strange surroundings and our absence from home, we began to realize the possibilities which life in Oberlin-had in store for us. ln accordance with the unwritten law of the Academy, our Junior Middle year brought class organization. Early in the Fall term we made our initial appearance in a social way. The high reputation for trust- worthiness to which this class has attained is such that the faculty members whom we had invited to attend one of our parties con- sidered their presence unnecessary. From our ranks our President, Herald D. I-loxvlus. who put up such a splendid game against the High School, has been chosen captain of next year's lfoot llall team: blames .-X.

HE Olney Art Collection was the joint gift of Mr, and Mrs. Charles P. Olney, of Pilgrim Church, Cleveland. Mr. Olney was not officially connected with the College, but he was a frequent and interested visitor in Oberlin. He was an ardent lover of the best music and av-ailed himself of every opportunity to hear the Musical Union give the great oratorios. ' Both Mr. and Mrs. Olney were deeply in sympathy with the religious ideals and standards of social life and conduct which are honored in Oberlin. Mrs. Olney had known Oberlin through- a favorite niece vvhoyvixasn once a student here, and Mr. Olney's interest dated back to his childhood. Both President Barrows and President King were often guests in their beautiful and hospitable home. At the time of President Kingls election Mr. Olney Wrote: 132 From a boy Oberlin has been one of the greatest inspirations of my life, for she has invariably stood for the loftiest ideals in human character. Firm as a rock has been her position. F rom lirst to last Oberlin has been truly patriotic. She was right on the slavery question, she is right on the temperance question, she is right on the tobacco question, she is a tower of strength in these days of venal politics. Yes, I love Oberlin. - This remarkable collection is the result of a lifetime of en- thusiastic love of fheisne arts. Its owners prized it not simply as a personal possession, but because of the good they could do with it. It was-their great delight generously and lavishly to share its privileges with rich and poor alike, and in the beautiful Greek temple which was built for it as an annex to the Olney home it brought beauty and joy into the lives of thousands of people. It was given to Oberlin College because Mr. and Mrs. Olney believed that here it could do more good than anywhere else. They regarded all their wealth as a trust, and they passed on to the College this beautiful collection in a perpetual trust for the com- munity and for the successive generations of students. I 1 Oberlin maintains the highest ideals and occupies a conspicuous and influential place in the art of Music. This noble gift brings the refining and ennobling influences of another of the fine arts. , Through the consideration of Mr. and Mrs. Judd, to whom the Olney residence and the art building were bequeathed, the Collection has remained in Cleveland since it was given to the College four years ago. It has been open to the public every Tuesday afternoon. Its removal to Oberlin is now made possible by the new Library Building, where a part of the 'Collection will be placed in a temporary room until an Art Building is erected. It will form a notable and attractive feature of the Seventy-fifth Anniversary Celebration. - IRVING WV. METCALF 133 The Qblmzp Qrt flllnllettiun muh 3 nugrwzinual ewrd.

L. A. has passed an eventful year and it may later deveQop that this same year marks a new epoch in the growth of the organization. We all have found ourselves facing doubtful situations, cir- cumstances which rather appall us, and in the presence of such conditions the -course of action is often marked out by no very definite lines. The Umergeri' proposition which confronted the Association was no mean problem with which to wrestleg it has been hotly debated for yearsg the times were out of joint and we thought that to set them right, our line of vision and judgment of relative values justified us in accepting the terms offered by the College. So the library now stands as College property and our U. L. A. can shake itself free from its past responsibility and face the better opportunities of the future. It may chance that some others of bygone years 'may question the judgment of this day and generation. Wfe accept the criticisms with cheerful candor, and request that we be given a chance to label our action as wise, through the experience of the years to come. 1 . We have debate and oratory to encourage, and it is the present plan .to build up an endowment fund for the express benefit of these two all-important inter-collegiate and inter-society interests. It is a privilege to be able to step forward to this special field of activity, which is bound by the force of circumstances to develop. The year has been one of unusual interest. The societies have all grown stronger and the spirit of unity has become more evident within the Association as a whole. lVe recognize the heritage of the past in our present work. and the future years hold in their yet unfolded pages larger and better things for the whole U. L. A. movement. It is growth and larger usefulness that we expectg in all reason we can claim it for our own. JOEL B' HAYDEN 137 Tltiniun library Zlssutiatiun '-7 3 ' 5 503- ' P3 '....

The first doomed man ascended the rostrum and opened hisfount of eloquence. The annual home oratorical contest was on! How matchless was the attention! I-Iow wonderful was the enthusiasm!

The number of members received at the opening of College doubled A pi gggmiatiun that of any former year. This inevitably r- ,X an strengthened and made more efficient every -f .f-2.1 ' department of the organization and made im- perative the use of Warner Hall for the reli- i . i ' . xx. gious meetings. I The meetings themselves have been of exceptional strength. They have been led by men and women of note from larger fields of work and distant countries, by mem- A bers of the Oberlin Faculty, and by representa- tive girls from the Conservatory, the Academy i '.i' it and from every class in the College. The TI receptions and parties have been thoroughly V enjoyable and the Bible Study and Mission 'Q' Study Courses have been so interesting as to ii' command unusual support.

The Extension Department has this I' year proved itself especially worthy its name.

Much has been done formally and otherwise to relate the local As- sociation to the larger movements of which it forms a part. In all departments the inspiration of the State and Summer Conferences which many of the girls attended has been manifest, and in every- thing it has been the aim of the Association to bring to Qberlin girls, and through them to others, the abundant life that is in Chflsf Jesus' MARY 12.

Not seeking popu- larity nor craving reputation, he had nevertheless become known to a rapidly growing' circle of friends. They had learned that to entrust Roy Mead with an offlce or a duty was to have a full guarantee beforehand of its successful perform- ance and in such service as treasurer to the Young Men's Christian Association he was taken from us. Mildred Louise Arnold For two happy years Mildred Arnold was a member of the class of 1909. She was an excellent student and enjoyed the various interests of Col- lege life. Mildred was a loyal friend and a true Christian, and her life was a constant source of strength and hope to those who knew her. The firm trust which she felt in God is well expressed in her favorite hymn: Rock of Ages, cleft for me!

Willard Ferris Treasurer, Victor C. Doerschuk Librarian, Hubefi E. Husted HE Cberlin Musical Union seems to grow stronger in achieve- ment year by year. It shows itself capable of handling with ease the most difficult works, and has made some of the finest of the later choral compositions familiar to the Cberlin public. No May Festival is given this year, but an equivalent was afforded in Decem- ber by the performance on successive nights of Handel's 'fMessiah and Elgarys Dream of Gerontiusf' It is intended that at the com- ing Commencement two concerts shall be given, one consisting of The Beatitudesu by Franck, the other a miscellaneous concert of choruses, solos, and orchestral pieces from the music dramas of up 178 Wagner. In the December concerts the accomzpaniments were played by the Pittsburg Orchestra, and it is expected that the Theo- dore Thomas Orchestra, of Chicago, Will assist at the Commence- ment concerts. In addition to the home performances, the Union gave The Dream of Gerontiusv with the Thomas Orchestra in Cleveland, Feb. 25, before a very large and appreciative audience. The past year in the Musical Union's history is chiefly dis- tinguished by the addition of The Dream of Gerontiusu to its repertory. This Work by the English composer, Sir Edward Elgar, is the most notable contribution to choral mus'ic that has been made in the past fifteen years. It is a work of great originality and beauty, and in the minds of many it has come to rival Erancliis Beatitudes in favor. With the completion of the new chapel the Union will have for the first time an adequate concert hall, and its educational benefits will be noticeably extended.

QBherlin Glas Qlluh in the AFM west HE Christmas holidays of 1907 saw the Glee Club on the greatest trip it had ever taken, and on what was probably the greatest trip ever taken by an American College Glee Club. Leaving Oberlin December 14, the Club Went directly to Ionia Michigan, gave a concert there that night, drove to Lake Gdessa the next afternoon, held a sacred concert in the evening, and then took the midnight train to Chicago. Here the private car Rainbovv Was Waiting, and at II A..M., December 16, the boys started out on 3 journey taking them through fourteen states and covering 3 dis- tance of over 6,ooo miles. Twenty-one concerts were given, some in opera houses, some in churches, Y. M. C. A. buildings, high schools, and once in a roller skating rink, but the attendance-was good and in only one town were there more people on the stage than in the audience. y I In nearly every place the Club was royally entertained, recep- tions, dances, dinners, sight-seeing trips, and nearly every form of entertainment which the boys would enjoy was provided. In Lamar, Colorado, a beet sugar plant was visited, in Pueblo, the Mexican Village 5 in Salt Lake City, the Mormon Tabernacle and surround- . ., I . k I . , ings, as -Well as The University Club, Natatoriums, the U. S. Army Transport Dix,,' Puget Sound, the famous Pettibone trial at Boise, prisons, Capitols, The Montana Agriculture Col- lege, fish hatcheries, breweries, flour mills. forts, mountain trips and hunting excursions formed the scenic diet of the rest of the trip. In fact. there was but little that the boys missed. During the ride througli the Royal Gorge and up over Ten- nessee Pass. the scenery was ele- gant. and though the altit11ClC 134 was rather high none of the boys were affected by it. The rapid climatic changes, however, made colds frequent, and before the trip ended, each person had had his share. The concerts Were, on the whole, better than have been given for a number of years. Although there were fewer individual voices of extraordinary calibre on the club than formerly, Mr. Wfirlcler had so drilled them that the various parts sang as one voice and their pianissimo effects were beautiful. But it is to the manager, Mr. Peck, that the real success of the season was due. Such a trip meant an untold amount of work on the part of the management, and when the fact is considered that all possible things which would tend toward the comfort and health of the boys were provided, all concerts given, and the trip financially successful, his work deserves more and more praise.

Time has come when Oberlin stands abreast of the most progressive of American Colleges in her wholesome interest in contemporary and classic dra- matic endeavor. Under the sane, conservative yet willing guidance of Doctor VVager, daring Belascos have firmly grounded the Senior and Junior plays in the course of the year's activities. Of, earlier or later growth we now know the French and German plays, the Girls' Literary Society plays, and the Thanksgiving and house farces, while in recent years Ben Greet has set the high-water mark in interest and worth of work in his twice-a-year festivals. The comic and tragic masks have been clapped on the stern Visage of old Oberlin and the revels of the King's players are anxiously awaited and en- thusiastically applauded. 'When the critic's pen has closed the seventy-fifth of Oberlin years, the dramatic resume will be really worth while. Memories of IQO7,S delightful performance of Much Ado About Nothing blend with high hopes for this year's Taming of the Shrew. The Juniors with work worthy of the real stage transformed a dull Eliz- abethan, Eastward Hoe, into a sparkling comedy of manners. Talcott gave Sheridan's Rivals in a manner more in the spirit of its time than the rowdy method of the later professional production of Goldsmith's companion piece, She Stoops to Conquerf' In plain words Ben Greet disappointed in She Stoops. The Mer- chant of Venice was acted more reverently. Greet's Jew was in- teresting and consistent but decidedly unimpressive. The outdoor performances Commencement week should serve as a fitting close to a year of high achievement. 4 188 ' Merry Tllflliihes ni Tiliinhsur EBU Shakespeare Presented on the Campus, Afternoon of June 20, 1907 The Tempest Shakespeare Presented on the Campusg Evening of june 20, 1907 Gihe btuups tu Qlfunquer Golhsmith Presented in Wfarner Hall, March 16, 1908 The jllllerchant of Eeniee Shakespeare Presented in XVZITIICI' Hall, March 17, IQOS 189 Greet , jllilueb Qhn Qhuut jautbing Qemur 391329 Shakespeare I igresentelz hp the Svenior Qilass of 1907 on the Qllanmufs, Elune nf 1907 Qlast Don Pedro, Mr. Ewalt Don John, Mr. Caldwell Claudio, Mr. Griffith Benedick, Mr. Ullman Leonato, Mr. H.

Q l l Behold, the sons of toil have seen a sign, , i . L They bring the scholar's immemorial dream, l 4 The gains wherewith the garnered ages teem l A jewel to blaze on homely labor's shrine, c 6 1 g They plant by cottage doors the groves of Academe. Long dead is he, that keeper of his sheep Wlio heard their cry aboveathe siren fame: I But strong-winged over seas his spirit came, i l And these have heard him where he spoke from sleep, And crowned their rising walls with honor of his name. 214 So unto Labor are we dedicate, From whose stained brows the laurel and the bay light The world withholds not on the dusty way, VVhose brown hands bear the keys of human fate. His face our Genius wears, rough-hewn to front the day. Yet to stern splendor of the fathers' faith His vows are paid, and though on clearer eyes Grows the horizon of a far surmise, ln heart and arm the old blood quickeneth, To nerve the martyr-son, when back to wall he dies. By gates flung wide to give the hunted peace Waited the raw staunch sons, content to be The outlaw-counted strength of misery, For manhood's sake work brotherhood's release, These, ere the nation's word, dared call the dark race free. Q white, proud faces, dauntless, glorified! Throng round the arch where stand your names enrolled, Cast on the air your dust of fire and gold, Upraise new witness from your ashes tried, Make new feet strong' to tread where yours have passed of old. Forget the living in the shrined dead? Not while ll1Zll1'S striving' heart and hrain heat true. Look where the ruined walls are reared anew. XYhere day by day our Spirits runes are read: I-le sought tiod's right aloneg ii'orld's praise is on his head. 215 VV ell unto him kept God the ancient word g QPU!

I W HAT her scientific name was she did not know her- self, and as it cannot be said to convey any sense T of her sacred individuality to either you or me, I think We had better call her Mary, her Christian name, and the one by which she was known to her unscientific friends. Her parents were both Earth- R - A ' :H T worms, a thoroughly respectable family of the older I type, not socially ambitious and strongly opposed . 'T-, 'xiii if 1 fn A gi' X l a 1' ,Qt XX' l - , l .v.h ' - I to innovations. Biologists maintained that phylo- genetically they had become isolated 5-but what that means I don't quite know. I fancy it meant little to Mary. The things that meant most to her were not family affairs at all. She did not even know Whether she had a family. This was due to a theory of the Earthworms that children are best educated by being made to shift for themselves from the egg up. If you are inclined to think such treatment a little barbarous, you should re- member that the L'Il7'lb7'fl.C'Ii had had several million years of ex- perience in such things when Adam and Eve began to work out theories of child-culture, and that the family seems to Hourish to-day as vigorously as ever. Thus it came about that Mary Lumbricus had entered the world alone. From the moment when she had sent the first independent wriggle along her annulated form, up to the present, when she was living snugly in a little burrow beside the woodland path, she had been a self-made worm. She took some pride in the fact. for it had not been an easy tight. There had been rainy days which were not pleasant for her or anybody else to remember. and there had been a long cold winter besides, during which she had been forced to dig deeper and deeper to escape from the fatal frost until every muscle in her body ached with the strain. lint perseverance and a natural 2217 :Hilary anti the Gully Q wunhlanh ilhpll Ziaarrp Eames bmitb ,illaarp ant the Eullp faculty she had of getting down to the roots of things had enabled her to surmount every difficulty. And in her character you saw the' results. There was a certain independence, a franchise, about Mary, the charm of which one could not deny. And if she added to this just a suggestion of skepticism and a certain sharpness of manner, one could easily at- tribute that to her constant contact with hard facts. VVas it not George Sand who said, To know all is to forgive alln? Mary's faults were simply the inevitable, outcome of her environment. VVhat makes her life significant for you and me is that in the end she rose above her environment, fitting herself for greater service. Of that y-ou shall hear. I need only add that, for a Lumbricus, Mary was unusually' intellectual: if she had been a Boston woman, I am sure she would have been president of a social science club, but in the forest such things were impossible. - Mary's life had given her little opportunity-to make friends, but toward the end of june she had formed a rather intimate ac- quaintance with a tall creature named Daisy that grew a few inches from the opening of her burrow. Daisy's form was wonderfully slender yet perfectly erect, her eye was round and expressive, and her' voice was indescribable. The two had often exchanged girlish confidences in the starlight, for although Daisy had no brains at all, she was an affectionate little thing, and longed to make others happy. It is surprising how well one can get along without brains. It was on the twenty-fifth of June that the events occurred which I am about to relate. The night, as y-ou may remember, was beautiful,-mild and cloudless, with a sky full of stars that winked' confidentially. Mary reclined at full length on the dewy gI'3S5, clinging by 0116 CXtre1nity to the doorway of her burrow, instinc- tively prepared for fiight. 218 Daisy, upright ,on her slender stalk, shivered happily in the scarcely perceptible stir of the breeze. She felt strangely glad to be alive, and to be there so near to her friend, for whose mobility and freedom from roots she had the greatest admiration. She often wondered afterwards what it was that impelled her to mention a subject which she had alvvayskept sacredly to herself. The in- fluence of the night, in all probability. june nights are dangerous. This was Daisy's first june. Mary, she ventured in that indescribable tone of hers. Wl1at is it, Daisy ? Were you ever in love ? As she uttered the words she was startled at the boldness of them and shivered slightly. In love? I do not know what you mean, answered Mary, with a certain skeptical indifference which she sought to emphasize by nonchalantly swallowing a globule of earth. Oh, I have heard them speak of it, she added. But I could not understand. It is not a ,thing one understands, explained Daisy cahnljr. Understanding often spoils it altogether. It is a thing to be felt. Tell me about it, dearest, said Mary, with a sudden pathos in her voice that was new. She drew close to her friend and lay there motionless in the waning light. Six-legged insects hummed about them. The grass was sprouting close by with little ereaking sounds like unofled carriage wheels. Mary had never looked so beautiful: her iridescent Cuticle glistened with a dim phosphorescence. After a moment's pause during which she was attempting to formulate a definition, Daisy began. There was something of the poet in Daisy, due no doubt to her lifelong communion with Nature. 219 mary anh the 'Bully warp ants the Gully f'Love is a fire,', she said,-and supposed, as most poets do, that she was saying something original. It takes you by surprise and makes you lose your sense of location. It sends ap thrill down your stalk and-- i i But I h-aven't any stalkf' broke in Mary with some bitterness. Dear me, I forgot! Well, I don't know what it would do to you. Only you would feel funny all of a sudden. I fancy I should like that, said Mary. Most of my feelings are so very Iunfunny. But how do you get it P That's just the pointf' explained Daisy. You don't get it. The very proof of its being it is that it gets you iirstf' I don't understand. There, you're at it again ! said the flower reproachfully. You always want to understand. That's the nuisance of having a cere- bral ganglion. I supposeyou can't help it. Forgive me, Daisy, pleaded her recumbent friend, impul- sively. I ought to control my weakness better. Do go on. y All you can do, went on,Daisy considerately, is to put your- self in the way of being got. Decide what you would like to have love with, and then wait till it comes along. p V Mary thought for a moment before speaking again. The trouble is, she confessed at last, that I'm afraid I should ask for too much. Somehow or other I feel that I could never be Satisfied with a mere Lumbricus. I seem to have got beyond all that. Per- haps it has come from being alone so much. I suppose I've got into the way of using my brains more than I ought to. I knew it was wrong all the time 5 but as an amusement it had a strange fascina- tion for me. I used to do it last winter sometimes when my head ached from digging with it, and it seemed to rest me. I 220 Poor dear ! I might try the moon or the maple-tree or something else that's nice and big, but I don't believe there'd be any use in that, do you ? I'm not sure, answered Daisy, thoughtfully. It's hard to tell about those things. But wait a minute 5 I think I have an ideaf' Hurry, urged Mary with sudden eagerness. There is, began her friend, a large Thing that passes by here almost every morning.

Yes,- answered the Hower doubtfully. Only, it moves on its stalks more like a spider. It isn't so pretty as a spider, of course, and hasn't nearly so many eyes-only two or three, I think-but it's lovely and big, and it looks as if it could think, too. I'm sure I should like it then, commented Mary, with some enthusiasm. I must have intellectual companionship. Wfhat is its name P I'm not quite positive, answered her companion. But I think it's Golly. Anyway that's the only thing I ever heard it say. and it comes clown the walk here about two hours after sunrise every clay. I'm sure it's worth trying for. Besides- Daisy, you mustn't talk to me about it any more. cried Mary, beseechingly. There was an accent of fear in her tone. I've never 221 stayed out so late as that in my life.

And then, too- here .she began to sob as only a worm can, 'fwh-at good would it do me to stay . . . for you know I have no eyes! . . . I am blind . . . blind! She turned her sightless anterior extremity toward her friend and trembled with emotion. A I-Iush, dear, murmured the flower. Don't excite yourself like that.

There was another long pause. Mary was not eating dirt now. I-Ier sensitive cuticle twitched nervously. Ah, she cried at last. I am going to try. I think it would do me good. I think, life would mean quite a little more to me. I ' 'Z '-L T4 ., J' - . . . , 55 - 'I'here's my brave girl, said Daisy approv- yf' ingly. 'fStay close to me.

Be brave, said the tall creature at her side. The time will come. The time always comes. Wait. After a while the sun began to rise, and its warm yellow light sparkled on the dew. The trees shook their leaves and began their day's work of converting CO2-I-0 into diastase and starch. The birds hopped from bough to bough and sang Good-morning, merry Sunshine l Mary, supine beside the path, felt a strange numbness coming over her under the dry warmth of the morning. She was wilting. A nameless fear seized her. She writhed and twisted out upon the Walk, blindly groping for the entrance to her burrow. O Daisy, she cried, half-articulately. Daisy! I ani going now . . . Home .... I do not care for love! . . . Look! . . You have an eye. . . Tell me the way . home! The ground was hard. It was impossible to dig into it with one's head: much less to find there a hole which was fully a foot away in the grass. XVait. cried Daisy, suddenly. It is coming. I see it. Its two stalks are working heautifully. Une branch is fastened to a long stick that leans across the top of its trunk. and on the other is sort of a tin thing that shines in the sun. l2olly's got two eyes. and I think there's another underneath. a pointed red one: hut I'n1 not sure.

Daisy was right 3-but I didn't suppose there'd be quite so much of it the Hrst time. A moment later Daisy found herself alone beside the pathg but she tried not to be unhappy. I did not suppose it would get her like that, she said softly to herself. But I must try to be glad for her sake. It will be a new world for her. I saw the Golly put her into that fin thing. i . t Daisy forced back a sigh: then she straightened herself bravely on her stalk once more and open-ed her white petals a bit wider to the yellow sunshine. She was conscious of having done a good thing: and that always brings joy in the end. W ,,, ., 1.

The weather was peculiar 9 for Qberlin in winter. Bucher had daringly re- sorted to his straw hat. The ice at Gayter's was silently melting, when about the eleventh a soft, moist snow began to fall. Those were the days when Qberlin had not yet emerged from her regime of rigor and rules. After supper strolls were morally ostracised, and the probation club was packed, with a waiting list that would fill Baldwin. On the aforesaid evening long after the now mystic hour of seven-thigty, one worthy Snipe, so -called for the purposes of this tale, was homing it 'neath the elms. A Huttering glimpse of skirts near the sometime residence of G. Frederick attracted the suspicious gaze of his Snipehoodg and the young Sherlock, baffled but inter- ested, pursued his way the faster to tell the incident to his colleagues in Learning and Labor, the renowned and infamous Bird and Twist. Together in dire and eager conclave the conspirators evolved the daring scheme of photographing loving couples by flash-light. Slowly and with true Faculty deliberation the plan bloomed forth. Saturday evening, January 2o-th, found Snipe patiently walking the streets of Gberlin in pursuit of accurate knowledge with regard to the accustom-ed haunts of the dears to be stalked. At the silent, sacred, secret hour of eight, at the secluded and exclusive lamp-post on the corner of Cedar and Qak, he met a gentle couple. He followed at a respectful distance not to intrude upon their happiness. At the late hedge in front of Sturges the-interesting pair left Professor street. Snipe went around to College, and whistling a tune in token of his harmless innocence, cut through between the Second Church and Sturges. Behold! upon those insignificant back steps appeared an object of strange and uncertain outline. Snipe still whistling, now in satisfaction, returned home to tell his colleagues that an haunt had been discovered. - X So likewise on the following evening, it being the Sabbath day, Bird and Twist sallied forth in quest of further data. First of all they betook themselves to Prospect and its vicinity. They soon began to meet and pass multifarious twos. Une such compound con- ception sat sweetly on the very edge of the sidewalk, leaning in- wards perhaps to maintain a desirable equilibrium. On the corner of Prospect and Morgan ia decrepit old wooden fence, long since gone to its reward, was doing its best to support four-in-a-row! Upon the following Vlfednesday, in the relaxation from the toil 226 of common day, for the Day of Prayer was coming on the morrow, Snipe exclaimed, Happy thought, gentlemen! Wie shall tire the flash with punk. To-day will I engage upon the construction of an apparatus which shall guide the punk accurately to the powder with- out fail l He hied himself to the cellar and with the assistance of Bird fashioned the implement herewith depicted. l it ' lg The evening of the 27th was the essence of enticement for dar- ing knight and pretty maiden. The cool air was just snappy enough to send home long before eight all but the most desperate entangle- ments. The blaekguards, armed with the flash and a black, square- cornered object, referred to by all three as The Box. stole out into the night. After a brief tour for reconnoitering, a juicy case was detected on the horizon at the corner of Prospect and Elm. A hasty council of war determined on a trek across lots to Morgan to head off the unsuspecting game. The corner was gained by the three Box-ers, and soon the night wind bore to them the measured beat of advancing footsteps and the faint and stilly noise of Conversation. Nearer the couple approached. Snipe cautiously opened the shutter of the Box and signaled ready. llird shoved the punk on its for- ward course-but alas! for untried inventions. It parted company in the middle. llird yelled disgustedly, Punks busted! and there passed the loving couple-two boys. Another fruitless chase on XYest Lorain had led only to disap- pointment. Lonely. alluring Prospect still remained. Twist was scouting on ahead. XYhen Snipe and llird came opposite the school building. that place where so many young souls have been prepared for life. a faint sound of voices was heard from within the arclnvay. As the observers looked more closely they saw two couples sitting in the sanetum of Cupid nieely grouped for the would-be photographers. The eonspirators cautiously made their way to the corner of the school house. Should they rush out and try to take the group qq- -- A The Enix Ghz Box within the archway? It seemed 'I.IlC.l'f7CdI.C'Ilf. Ere long, however, the congenial companions leisurely strolled down Elm street. The wielders of the Box followed rapidly on the other side, passed the prospective models of their art, crossed near Cedar and started back. A In the shadow ofthe elm trees before the Green's, the erstwhile home of Hoppy, Snipe and Bird paused directly in the path of the two advancing couples. An ominous click. Ready, said Snipe quietly. The promenaders were now within ten feet. Bird reached over the tin guard and touched the double dose of flash-light powder. Bang! A scream. lNe've got ,em! shouted Snipe, and he and Bird rushed across the street and started up Cedar toward the Wfater Wforks. Snipe was ahead. Une of his eyes was blinded by the flash. Yet withal the other eye performed its office effectively. He turned aside near Qak, and with one glance behind to see that Bird was fol- lowing, he darted into the shadow of the surrounding dwelling houses, and fell panting upon a brush pile. Bird did not come. VVhat was the matter? justat this moment unintelligible sounds were borne to the anxious listener. Could Bird have been trapped? Hardly, for all was still again. Accordingly Snipe flitted quietly back to the dwelling of the conspirators. i r i There he appeared Hushed and panting to the apprehensive Twist, who had long since returned in great anxiety from fruitless scoutingj T-o his dismay he learned that Bird had not yet arrived. A relief party was immediately organized, but Bird was nowhere in evidence. The rescuers returned to find that Bird had found himself, and that he now exhibited more of himself than formerly 5 for his right eye was abnormally enlarged. He was in the kitchen bathing the injured sight organ in hot water. He announced cheerfully that he had been caught and rather roughly handled, but worst of all his Birdship had been recognized. Still, as he said, the Box is safe. H-is tale was interrupted by many exclamations and frequent eye- bathings. Amid much excitement the conspirators retired to their rest to sleep. To sleep,',with one exception. The battered Bird bathed his bulging eye till midnight. . At breakfast the next morning the friendly fellow-eaters of the injured Bird heard sympathetically how in the night that gentleman had inadvertently collided with his closet door. 228 1 l 2 After Y. M. While the Box-ers were enjoying social converse in the room of Twist, the tramp of feet was heard, the door opened, and there entered several of the burly Freshmen of 'O9. These gentlemen were accustomed to give and take hard knocks-and lights for cigarettes. They have left Qberlin long since, the mem- ory of them alone remains. Our little College was too quiet for them. Their spokesman, Whose fist had forged the mark of Birdis closet door, addressed himself to Bird, the only conspirator ever de- tected. He demanded the film. We should never have expected to find you up to such small tricks, he sneered. And We, replied Bird, with aggravating coolness, Hshould never have expected to find such a perfect gentleman as yfu leading confiding innocence on to rule-breaking. The conversation of the visitors waxed heated, and at length it was apparent that unless some film or other was forthcoming, the present condition of Bird's eye would become chronic. One condi- tion remained w'th which the visitors must comply. If no picture appeared upon the film they were not to press the matter further. They agreed, after objecting fntilely. Further, they offered to buy the whole film. The 'Box was produced, the gentlemen paid their money, took the f7I'0ff:t'l't'!I' hlm and departed. Come again, fellows, said the unsuspected Twist cordially ful- filling his duties as host. w 3 I Non-eommittal reader-guilty or no,-did you expect to see a picture?

Nor had that purpose lost its original vigor when she dropped heavily into a seat opposite the wel- coming smile of Miss Stanton, district visitor of the Associated Charities and destined subject of Mrs. O'Leary's spiritual surgery. It's poorly I am, she said with ponderous gloom in response to Miss Stanton's greeting. The pain in me ehist gits warse ivery day. I'll not be here long to bother youse. An' such drames o' nights! Last night I dramed that an angel stood by me bed. What did he do ? inquired Miss Stanton with interest. I-Ie crawled under the bedf' said Mrs. 0'Leary. Uh l said Miss Stanton faintly, smothering a tubercular cough in her handkerchief. W'ell, I wouldn't worry if I were you. If anything should happen to you, we'll take good care of the children. It's thim I'm thinkin' of, returned Mrs. Cleary. Not a rag have they got to their little backs. An' the good Lord knows I hav'n't a damned thing mesilf to wear to mass. Mrs. O'Leary paused, but as Miss Stanton did not break the ensuing silence, she continued oracularly, Thim as has things gits more, an' thim as has nothin' gits nothin'. What do you mean? asked Miss Stanton. ' It's Missis Cooligan I mane an' no other, declared Mrs. O'l.eary, emphatically. Can youse till me why a woman whose husband is makin' two-fifty the day should be gittin' hilp? Did youse know that Pat an' Mike 're bot' workin' an' bringin' home eight an' tin dollars in their pay envilips ivery Sathurday night? Has anybody told youse that Kate Cooligan is washin' t'ree days a week ? XX'hy, no, Mrs. O'l.earyl It's so kind of you to come in and tell me, replied Miss Stanton. lint are you quite sure that you have everything straight? You know you have to be so careful about what you say. So llilp me tiod. it's the trut'! swore Mrs. U'l.eary with im- pressive solemnity. I t'ought youse ought to know about it. Of Course. agreed Miss Stanton. l wonder now where you could have heard all that. l'erhaps from Mrs. fooligan herself? I got it straight. said Mrs. tiYl.eary, but not from Kate Cooligan. .-X frind of hers tonlll :1 frinll o' me own. 2237 iplumarp in limba jflurenre QE. Waits I 1 Biplumacp in limba What could be straighter P murmured 'Miss Stanton. But I'm really afraid somebody has made a mistake. You know Mr, Cooligan has rheumatism and can work only an occasional day, and last week when I was there Pat and Mike were earning only five dollars a week each. And when you consider that there are ten children, you can see that that amount of money w-on't go a very long way. A It's God's trut' I'm tellin' youse, reiterated Mrs. O'Leary sul- lenly. I've seen ould' man Cooligan ivery day f'r a wake wit' his dinner bucket. - ' , ' HIS that so P returned Miss Stanton with more alertness than she had shown hitherto. Well, as I said before, it was very thoughtful of you to come and tell me these things. You may be sure that I shall look into th-em carefully, and if the Cooligans don't need help, of course they will have no more. I Miss Stanton's manner indicated that the interview was over, but Mrs. O'Leary did not yet 'regard the incident as closed. It's a good frind I've alwuz -been to youse, Missis Stanton, said she reminiscently. I A swift survey of the past br-ought to Miss Stantonis mind several instances in which Mrs. O'Leary's manifestations of friend- ship had Qbeen eccentric, to say the least. But remembering that the b rarest souls must have their differences, she nodded in acquiescence. To be sure you have, Mrs. O'Leary,', .said she. I It's not iverywan as 'ud sp-ind half a day to give youse a frindly warnin'. I'm sivinty-five cints an' me car-fare out. I know there aren't many who would go to that much trouble and expense for me, granted Miss Stanton heartily, and I wish I could pay it back to you. But -here Miss Stanton paused, shook h-er head regretfully, and summoned to her aid the c-onvenient spirit of her superior officer- the Superintendent wonlt let me spend a cent unless it's absolutely necessary. There is so little money com- ing in this year and so many ways to spend it. Mrs. 0'Leary reflected with bitterness upon the extreme par- simony of that entity known as the Superintendent. 'fI-Ie's an ould skin, ' she declared. Wh'o the divil needs it warse than the likes o' me, a-slavin' to support me t'ree childher? An' the 'Cooligans livin' like princes ! iiWhY, MTS. O'Leary, remonstrated Miss Stanton, I can't believe itis you I hear. Only the other day I said to the Superin- 238 i tendent, 'Now, there's Mrs. G'Leary. Depend upon it, she'll never ask us for help. She's a good, sober, hard-working woman, and she'd rather die than take a cent from anyonef Mrs. 0'Leary gasped a little and looked with suspicious eye upon her praiser. Perceiving in Miss Stanton's face only grieved surprise and concern, she rallied nobly. V An' that's no lie, either, she assented, taking on dignity visibly. It's little I've iver took off of youse or anybody else. Miss Stanton followed up her advantage shamelessly. Of course it's hard times now and everybody is being pinched a littlef' said she, but you are such a good manager, I am sure you can get along. Now Mrs. Cooligan- Miss Stanton broke off suddenly, but the astute Mrs. O'Leary was quite capable of drawing her own conclusions. I am so glad, Mrs. O'Leary, continued Miss Stanton, as she arose and extended her hand, to have a good friend like you in my district. You can help me so much if you will. That's all this morning, isn't it? And much to her surprise Mrs. O'Leary found herself home- ward bound, bearing with her no material aids to existence, but only a gratifying, if confused, sense that she was a person upon whom laurel wreaths had been hung. After her departure Miss Stanton threw up the windows of the consultation room and drew in gratefully long breaths of the cool morning breeze. Upon her lips there was a smile and in her heart there was the pardonable exultation of the successful diplomat. Did I do that well or did I not? she demanded of herself. If I may be permitted a personal opinion, I think I did. Not very long ago I should have felt that I owed it to society to call Mrs. O'l.eary a prevaricator and a beggar. and we should have parted in bitterness of spirit. As it is- Will you speak with Mrs. Cooligan? interrupted the registrar at the door. Savin' y'r prisince. no! ejaculated Miss Stanton softly. lt seems to me I've interviewecl half the lVest Side this morning. Oh. yes, send her in, of course. It does ine heart good to see y'r swate angel face. remarked Mrs. Cooligan. as she took the chair lately occupied by Mrs. O'l..eary. It's thronhle upon throuhle I do he havinf XYhat for those juni- vile Court min should alwuz be pickin' on Jinunie I dunno.

' God bless youse an, kape y'r heart, responded Mrs. Cooligan gratefully, launching into a panegyric which included everything from the pleasing color of Miss Stanton's eyes to her less palpable qualities of mind and soul. Thank you, Mrs. Cooliganf' acknowledged Miss Stanton. You know how highly I value your good opinion. And now I want to talk over some plans with you and ask your advice. Mrs. Cooligan drew her chair nearer the table and indicated her willingness to assist her friend by word or deed in any emergency. You know, said Miss Stanton confidentially, how many families are dependent upon me, and how short of m-oney we are this year. . h Mrs. Cooligan nodded cautiously. A great many families that I would like to help, I cannot, went on Miss Stanton, and some that I have been helping I' cannot help any longer except in cases where it is much needed. Mrs. Cooligan nodded -once more. I I have been wondering, said Miss Stanton, ,dropping with appalling suddenness from general to particular, if you would not be able to get along now without any more help. Savin, y'r prisince, noll' said Mrs. Cooligan with decision. We should not. Sure, youse wouldn't take away the few groceries have no on-e to depind on but the Lord an' you, y'r givin' us. We an we're depindin' mostly on you l - Let me see, preference. just continued Miss Stanton, ignoring this flattering how much are you all earning now? Pat and Mike are getting-- ' CC Five a wake, an' little enough it is, too'-- ff But they have had a raisef' broke in Miss Stanton calmly. Yis, so they have, admitted Mrs. Cooligan. It had slipped me mind intirely. But it's only a dollar a wake more. , And you are working, suggested Miss Stanton. Two days a wake an' most of it goes for car-fare-- IC Only ten cents a day, you know, objected Miss Stanton, a little reproachfully. And I heard this morning that Mr. Cooligan was working every day. P I 240 Before God, it's a dirty lie, declared Mrs. Cooligan hotly. Who tould youse that? If it was Bridget 0'Leary, I'll knock the stuflin' out o' her! Hush, hush l reproved Miss Stanton. I'm not saying it was Mrs. 0'Leary. And what difference does it make anyway? You would have told me yourself. Mr. Cooligan is working, isn't he P I-Ialf-time, grudgingly admitted Mrs. Cooligan. But-- Now, let's count up, proposed Miss Stanton. By an abstruse mathematical computation, further complicated by Mrs. Cooligan's interpolations, Miss Stanton arrived at the grati- fying conclusion that the Cooligans' family income was 3517.90 per week. I know you have a large family, Mrs. Cooliganf' said Miss Stanton, but by managing carefully I think you can get along. It isn't that I don't want to help you, but that there are others who need it worse. I have alwaystried to be a good friend to you, and now I want you to make it easier for me to be a good friend to others. Will you ? For a moment Mrs. Cooligan was stiffly silent, but she melted at last before the compelling warmth of Miss Stanton's smile. Sure it's an angel mother fou've alwa s been to us, she v s 3 conceded. Whatever you say goes. As a street-car bore Mrs. Cooligan back to her household duties Miss Stanton once more indulged in self-gratulation, for withdraw- ing material relief from a lady of the Triangle without at the same time destroying her regard. is an operation to which the term delicate may justly be applied. An hour later she closed her desk with a decisive snap, gathered up her professional impedimenta, and hailed a Wfest Side car. Meanwhile the seed which Miss Stanton had sown in her previous interview had undergone a tropical growth. For hlrs. U'lQeary, accepting as a sacred charge her appointment as district helper, had engaged at once in active service. No delinite duties had been laid upon her. hut Mrs. O'l..eary was of the school of impressionists. A hint sufficed. I-Ier own managerial ability had been commended, Mrs. Cooligan's de- precated. Herein. then. lay her glorious opportunity to offer friendly suggestion and expert advice. Now, it must he said that Mrs. t'l'l..eary's altruistic purpose was an exotic whose growth was partly due to the artificial stimulation of malt liquors. I-lad the 241 Eiplumacp in iiimhn Eiplnmacp in limba forcing process stopped with the second glass of Murphy's dis- pensation, her reformer's zeal would have been tempered with bland volubility. The fourth glass brought with it sharpness of tongue and considerable sensitiveness to opposition. Incipient belligerence was apparent in Mrs. O'Leary's manner as she stepped without ceremony into Mrs. Cooligan's kitchen. i There was no one in the room, for Mrs. Cooligan had not yet returned from her morning expedition, and the little -Cooligans were hot upon the trail of a hand-organ. Mrs. O'Leary looked about her critically and with increasing disfavor. The little Cooligans had left devastation in their wake. The air was heavy with the smell of burning potatoes. Mrs. O'L,eary hauled the kettle from the stove with a snort of disgust and turned to face Mrs. Cooligan, whose generous proportions were framed in the doorway. ' So youse 're here, said Mrs. Cooligan crisply. I have come, said Mrs. O'Leary without preliminary, to tache youse a thing or two about housekapin'. Mrs. Cooligan's jaw fell in pure astonishment at the other's audacity. The nerve of her! she ejaculated. Sure, youse ought to stay at home an' clane up a bit, remon- to be tratin' y'r husban' an' whole time !',' y T into me affairs P demanded you tillin' me to clane up? strated Mrs. Q'Leary. 'Tis no way childher, to be gaddin' the sthrates the Who sint youse here to meddle Mrs. Cooligan fiercely. The likes o' Do youse think T don't know about the time Missis Stanton sint the cemetery policeman to your house ? 4 'Mrs Cooligan's memory was good, her imagination better, and the recollections which she called up contained just enough truth to render them galling in th-e extreme. It was more than amateur altruism could bear. At any rate, retorted Mrs. O'Leary with cutting emphasis, the O'Learys 're not livin' on charity. ' Fr the raison that youse can't get it, interposed Mrs. Cooli- gan triumphantly. 'Tis not f'r the lazy n'r the dhrunken. ' ' ' f N .ll X ,..- T'd not be soilin' me hands' to take it! sniffed -Mrs. 0'Leary. This very mornin' T was down k , ' to the Charities on a small matther of business. , ' ij . . . 1 Says Misses Stanton to me,,'M1ss1s Q'Leary, I J El know what a disp'rit time youse 're havin' to support y'r t'ree 'childher dacintly.

Ye're that capable'yersilf,' says Missis Stanton to me, 'I wish ye'd go down an' see if youse can't pound some sinse into Kate Cooligan's head' An' this is the thanks f'r me throuble.' Mrs. Cooligan, who had been making ineffectual attempts to interrupt the monologue, Was purple with rage and mortification. The preceding events of the morning gave a strong suggestion of truth to Mrs. 0'Leary's talk. Moreover, the ability to weigh evi- dence nicely under strong provocation is not a temperamental pos- session of the Celt. She sint ouse here, did she? screamed Mrs. Cooligan. Y s Take that f'r y'r impidince! And Mrs. Cooligan bestowed two smart slaps on the district helper's face. At this juncture Maggie Cooligan applied her sophisticated eye to the keyhole. And Maggie's conclusion, founded on practical wisdom not acquired in the Fifth Grade, was that there would soon be occasion for the services of a policeman. As she sped up YX'ash- ington street, intent on her search for the familiar blue coat. she ran full tilt into Miss Stanton. who had stopped for a moment upon the corner. fm U, Missis Stanton l gasped ..

She pushed her way through the crowd which had assembled about Mrs. Cooligan's back door. Conlidently she laid her hand upon the latch and stepped in. The fury of the storm had spent itself. Amid the debris of broken crockery and miscellaneous household articles stood Mrs. O'Leary and Mrs. Cooligan, hands on hips, glaring sullenly at each other. With one accord they turned upon the intruder. Mrs. Cooligan was the first to find voice. An' fouse dare to set foot in nie house I she said thickl . 3 Y Miss Stanton started with surprise, for it had not yet occurred to her that she was anything but persona gmtat.

The seven deadly sins were as infants' pastimes com- pared with those which she laid at the door of the district visitor. Before Miss Stanton could gather her scattered forces for a reply, Mrs. O'Leary had taken the floor.

HE silent bitter cold of the night was around us, and we lay close Within our blankets and watched and listened. Not a sound broke the icy silence 3 not a breath stirred among the frozen twigs, the thousand murmurs of a summer night were hushed, and every Woodland voice was quiet. Above, behind the dim lace-work of the branches, the stars hung shivering, and we drew closer to the fire and felt a Wide-eyed awe before the great Spirit of XV inter- so powerful, yet so silent, so fearful, yet so beautiful, more fearful because silent, and more beautiful because fearful. A long time we sat motionless, gripped by the spell. Like incense to an unseen God rose the smoke of the camp-fire. And we felt the tinge of the great fear, the fear of the cowering animal, and we drew closer to the fire. H I But Where was this Spirit? Its spell was around us. Its charm knit trees, water, and moving life into one majestic web of silence. Why, with its powers, did it not speak? And all at once there came a sound like the low murmur of a praying priest, and rising, we peered out into the darkness where the frozen river lay, for the sound seemed to come from beneath the mantle of the ice, now subdued, now like the far-off tinkle of a silver bell. And being touched with the great fear we piled the fire high with wood until it burned fierce and hot. The incense rose to the trembling stars, and we lay close within our blankets and watched and listened. NYU squirrels chased each other through the trees. It was almost sunset. .Xeross, on the opposite slope. a thrush was singing. The liquid tones seemed to melt one into the other like shadows in a crystal. The singing ceased, and the cool air was silent save for the rnstle and ehatter of the Creek. Slowly the light grew dim: the stream ehattered louder: a mist crept up out of the 041 Qhherlin ilaaunts Qhmnnt 39.

The moon shone through the trees. The voice of the stream breathed through the woodland like the last chord of a wind-touched harp. Only a few coals lay red in their bed of ashes. The lonely wail of an owl, like the cry of a mad- man, seemed to make the silent leaves shiver. A tongue of flame flared up for a moment then sank into a deeper gloom. The owl ceased to wail and new far away. Sun glints, Love tints In thine eyesg that youthful passion hints- Tender ties.

Imperceptibly the light is fading, noise- lessly, the hand of darkness is mellowing the outlines of drowsv nature, blending them into the mystic ghostliness of the gloaming. One by one the stars flicker into being around the pale, wan face of the silver moon. Here and there through the deepening shadow of hedge and tree gleams a yellow spot of light, the mute signal that night is near. The incessant, monotonous chorus of cricket and katy-did is crooning gently the ,lullaby of nature. Gone is the open- faced, certainty of the daylight, in its stead rules the delightfully uncanny, the 'awful Spirit of the Night. The moments of twilight are moments of reverie. Sometimes the restless repose of peace is theirs, the quiet satisfying peace of the borders of dreamland. Again, the creeping terror of the super- natural seems to inhabit every secluded nook in the enshrouded shadows and cast its blighting chill over the heart of the belated Wayfarer. But always while its moments last, the reassuring touch of a hand not human seems to grasp us from out the gathering gloom and quiet our perturbed and weary bodies with the thought of a beneficent power above, around, within us. All too soon dusk has fied, all too soon the earth is engulfed in the utter shade of night. TAPER burns fitfully as it feels with its feeble rays into the deep gloom and the sombre fastnesses. No sound intrudes upon the awful silence. Not the faintest murmur from unseen distances breaks the dreadful stillness. Not a breath of air, not a hint of restlessness moves the atmosphere heavy with the repose of centuries. Repose, so often the soother of men's minds, here only serves to aggravate them with the thoughts of doom. Awe, that is the secret of it all, the awe of something unseen yet felt, unheard yet heard, as it suffuses the beings of the wretches gathered here 251 The bpirit uf the ight Q9Iiber Svapler Bush lin the QEatacomhs in the Catacombs in silent devotion, to pour out their souls in prayer to the God who remembers them that are persecuted. Cold, damp slabs of virgin stone beneath, dim nothingness above and far on all sides, and within the sway of the taper's feeble power the emaciated creatures whose faith had led them to give up all and follow-Him, even into the bowels of the earth! Scarcelyihalf a dozen they were, and yet theirs was the strength of armies, to endure thus. Five kneeling martyrs they were, five souls, bowed with agony amid the realms of darkness and despair. - RAPT in gloom the earth is sombre, ilmlhnlgljt Wrapt from din the fields ar-e still, Star-light, far-light in the heavens, r - Drear-sounds, fear-sounds on the hill. Hours are dragging on their watch-beat, Drowsy step and noiseless tread, As the pall of night lies sleeping, 0'er the living and the dead. All the world is chained in slumber, . 1 Only spirits watch and roam, Fairy torch lights glint the heavens, Beacons in the sky-sea's dome.

HE pines are moaning in the damp, chill night wind of October. Sodden and fog-laden, the air clings menacingly and creeps to the inmost crannies. The dank, heavy atmosphere is stifling. The cold, bare branches of the maples are trickling in litful time to the oppressive drizzleof the rain. And as a sad, ominous undertone, the mournful lament of the frogs lures to and from a drowsy repose that lingers near and yet is ever denied. .-X spirit of 'sullen restlessness wanders through the half-neglected cemetery, and casts over it the awe of long, long thoughts. Near by, a rounded form rises, dimly overshadowing a long, black ob-ject that lies close to the ground. In the uncertain light of the tomb-stones, the outlines melt away into the surrounding gloom. Some hillock, the mark of neglect, time-smoothed now, perhaps, with sod. Or it may be the curved outline of a brush-pile cut long since from the rambling undergrowth. A step further-a quiver-on the verge! It is an open grave! An open grave-ready to swallow into its hungry maw the remnants of a human being-a living, breathing, thinking human being. The remnants? And where the rest? On the verge the livmg soul demands, 'Wdfhere the rest ? Has it passed to the fields of pleasure and joy, or to the pools of fire and flame forever? Has it wandered off to a land of dim, dreamful forgetfulness? Or will the severed soul sink with the lifeless body into the cold, fog-kissed clay?

HE pulse of night is throbbing-throbbing still. It is in the half glimmer of the dawn that nature slumbers most deeply, and th-en it is that the steady, numbered beat of her great heart casts a solemn, awful hush upon her visible forms. The mist snuggles close to the distance-dimmed surface of the lake. Only a lighter tint of the prevailing sleepy gray distinguishes it from the dull, listless but expectant sky. Nearer, the water seems ensurfaced with velvet, and the pale light is reflected from it paler still. A tremulous' chill pervades it all, hinting a Hitting sensation of the delightful unreality of the land of dreams. The light grows, and with it the air becomes more bracing, more invigorating. The haze is astir, and in majestic brigades rolls silently on, trailing behind the curling smoke of the mute fray. The limpid surface of the lake stretches farther in its glassy sway, While the paler tints of the dawn are delicately mirrored upon it. The lifeless gray of the sky is slowly, gradually bursting into the glorious tints of the morning-first lavender, then pink, finally shading into deeper rose. From far across Held comes the token of animate life, muffled by the expanse of the reposeful atmosphere- Here and there a restless dweller in the waters breaks their g'laSS into TIPPISS and Spray and then falls to the depths.

Gray The Athletic Association has found the year peculiarly profit- able since the financial and athletic interests have been so capably managed. As has been the case for years,- the donation of past sea- sons was turned over at the beginning of the year in the form of an exceedingly interesting debt, which assumed large proportions. Through careful management and the splendid showing of our Foot Ball team, we were able to meet all expenses, pay for the services of Mr. Harvey R. Snyder and reduce the debt by fifty per cent. From the standpoint of an organization for focusing the in- terests of the men, the Association has never proved a success. True, we have enjoyed some fine spirited rallies, but the function of the organization in the stimulation of interest in stag affairs has been appreciably minute, if such a paradox of terms is admissible. Nevertheless, the Association exists in form, and its potential power may be transformed into more positive terms through careful development and study of the conditions. The men of the institu- tion can be made to realize the significance of an all-embracing or- ganization such as this, if the proper steps are taken. JOEL B.

T was a small weak-kneed squad of Foot Ball players that Splat- tered upon the Cornell gridiron, on a chill rainy day last Gctober. Tiers of dripping bleachers rose to a great height on each side of the field. The covered bleachers were crowded with strange forms, who greeted us patronizingly, almost pityingly. The white goal posts at each end of the field alone looked familiar. A Hi-O-Hi from half a dozen scrubs rang out defiantly, yet hopelessly as the immense Cornell team lined up to receive the kick-off. We were alone in a strange city and facing certain defeat. After our first uneasiness wore off, we were surprised-at the success of our offence. Twice one man only remained between Gray and the goal-post. VVe also made repeated gains through the line. Finally Gray circled the whole Cornell team fora touch-down. He did this against the team' that defeated Princeton several weeks later. I But this touch-down proved our undoing. Inf a few minutes the angered giants made an end of Gray, and he was taken from the field unconscious. Simp,'i who had shown skill in receiving the forward pass, soon followed Gray, and by the middle of the second half, we found ourselves losing ground rather regularly before every avalanche ofibeef. Although we were outclassed at Cornell, the game demonstrated clearly several things. E It proved that Oberlin had speed g it proved that she could handle the forward pass, and also that she would make herself known in Ghio Foot Ball circles. . Q We are all familiar with the games following that reached their climax at Reserve, and their catastrophe at Ohio State. iW7e did gp vffi., A A not win the State Championship, yet we all felt that the season as a whole was successful. The causes of our success were many. In the first placethe management of the seasonswas perfect. Director Savage, Bill Nye, and George Young spared neither labor nor money in attend- ing to the wants of the team. Then the season was financially a su-ccess. The athletic debt was cut squarely in the middle. More important still, every student in the institution felt an interest in the team. A Foot Ball team does not want to be petted and babied, yet it is a great inspiration to know that the students want to Win. Another gratifying feature of the season was the perfect harmony that existed among the individual members of the team. There was not a word of knocking during the whole season, there was not a man. who would not have sacrificed himself for the interests of the team. This unity can be traced directly to our coach. Snyder was the friend of every man on the team, he knew his men and anticipated every one. We never had a better trainer. His purpose in coaching was not merely to put out a winning team,', but to teach his men intelligent Foot Ball , to teach them concentration of effort and ability in meeting unexpected difficulties, to teach them business methods, and confidence in meeting and coping with strange op- ponentsg to teach them the fatality of hesitation and the necessity of rapid intelligent aggression. In time of success he warned us against the dangers of over-confidence, and in time of failure, he spoke only with sympathy. His feeling for his men is best ex- pressed by himself in a letter to the Athletic Director. Remember me to the team, I love them all.

Q r rw: X 'K X XXX N Xb X Q x CLEVELAND PLAIN DEALER Cleveland, O., Oct. 19.-Outplayed in every department of the game with the possible exception of the punting, the Case football team went down to an unexpected defeat at the hands of the Oberlin eleven today, the score being 22 to o. Playing with a machine- like system, with the very latest tricks of the sport working perfectly, the Congregationalists gave the Scien- tists a bad drubbing. Their play was of such a high order that they will undoubtedly make every Ohio eleven look up to them before the season closes. Oberlin worked the forward pass at the end of double passes and al- most any other kind of a pass, and gave such an exhibition of team work and determination to gain ground that the Case men could not hold them safely at any position. Oberlin circled the Case ends with regularity, while they plowed through the line for good gains, -making it look very simple for them to advance the ball wherever and whenever they pleased. While team play was what made Oberlin look so good, it was the ,in- dividual spectacular playing of Gray and Waters that was the feature. Gray was about the whole' team in scoring, while the defensive play of Waters was of the phenomenal kind. Gray used rare judgmentin running the team and scored two touchdowns, kicked a thirty-five-yard goal from field and was instrumental in scoring two more touchdowns, one of which was not allowed, owing to an Ober- lin player's holding. He is as fast as lightning, and aided by splendid in- terference by his teammates he eluded the Case men in an amazingly clever fashion. After a little more than three min- utes of play Oberlin, by fierce line plunging off tackle and straight through center, worked the ball to the twenty-yard line. At this point Gray showed his first sign of brilliancy by changing his attack entirely and car- ried the ball himself, eluding Case's left end and planted the pigskin be- hind the goal posts in such an easy manner that it took the breath out of the brown and white players. But A gl the judgment of Gray all through the game was just like this, and he got his plays off fast and directed them where they would have the best re- sults. Oberlin played snappy football and showed condition, speed and ability to play the game strictly under the new rules which completely baffled the Case men. Oberlin worked the for- ward pass to great advantage. They had many ways of working it and all of them seemed good, although the Scientists managed to break it up on several occasions at the early part of the game. One of the most effective ways in which it was worked was to have the quarter-back carry it as far as he could gain on a false punt. After he hadibeen tackled and hurled to the ground he would manage to pass it on to a man in front of him who generally carried it further. This was the way Waters made his touch- down. Gray circled Case's right end for a thirty-yard run, and after he was thrown to the ground he made a perfect pass to Waters, who carried the oval fifteen yards more for a score. This was the second touch- down and was scored with just fifty seconds left to play in the half. ' In the second half, Gray, while he did not play the entire time, man- aged to drop kick a pretty goal from field from the thirty-five-yard line and circled right end for his second touch- down of the game. This touchdown was made in 12:30 and ended Xthe scoring, as from that time on Oberlin played a kicking game. But outside of Gray the entire Oberlin team looks good. The back- held, with Houser, Smith, Vraden- burg and Gray, is lightning fast, while the line contains all big, powerful fellows, who open up large holes, and their defense isialso good. Case's tackling was also poor. It must be said, though, that Oberlin's interference was so good that Case men had very little chance for clean tackles. They always had to upset three or four players before they could get near the man carrying the ball. If Oberlin can keep up the same kind of a game right along they will make a great bid for state honors. - THE RESERVE WEEKLY OBERLIN SPRINGS SURPRIE Wins .16 to 0 on a Muddy Field Three 'factors combined to give our ancient enemies from Oberlin a vic- tory last Saturday. These were Re- serve's lack of ability to cope with Ober1in's forward passes, poor tack- ling by nearly every member of the red and white team, and the ,magnifi- cent work of Oberlin's ends and quar- terback. Although rain poured down all morning, there were several thou- sand people on the field when the whistle was blown for the beginning of the game. Oberlin and Reserve each had a student band and they vied with each other to keep up the spirits of their respective teams. After a while the Oberlin band stopped playing, as their team had enough spirit for one game. But the Reserve tooters kept things going till the last hope had vanished. The field was a sea of mud. Although it poured and the bleachers were a sea of dripping umbrellas, the yells of the rooters kept on unchecked. While Reserve lost through poor playing against their opponents, yet there is another reason which ac- counts for the poor playing. At the very beginning a questionable deci- sion took the heart right out of the fellows. After that, the men fearing another penalization waited. and so the interference of our opponents each time had a chance to form. Waters and Bradley outplayed their men at nearly every point, while Gray seemed to be in a class by himself at quarter. He ran the team well, brought back punts in a way that made even those who knew of his clever work in other games sit up and take noticep He made the first impression on the scoreboard by kick- ing a pretty goal 'from the twenty- five-yard line. He also made Ober- lin's second touchdown after ia long run through the entire Reserve team. Captain Waters scored the hrst touch- down on a forward pass from Gray. He had an open field, as not a Re- serve player was playing back. The boys from old Reserve, however, had a little the best of the line argument. In tackling, Reserve was particu- larly poor, allowing the runner to get past them time and time again. From the side lines it looked as though the game were tag. Tommy Terrel made the only flying tackle for Reserve near the close of the first half. On the other hand the Oberlin men tackled hard and sure, and they had interference which could not be penetrated. They worked the for- ward pass well, in spite of the soggy field, while Rescrve's only attempt at it was a failure. In the second half the whole red and white team took a brace and played magnificently, but were unable to score, and the game ended with the score I6 to o in favor of Oberlin. aff ' Q' 'i' lkeserhe ex, .

TRIUMPHS OVER OBERLI Barrington kicks goals from the field, two in each half Columbus, O., Nov. 9.-Quarter back Barrington rode high on the crest of Ohio State wave that broke over Oberlin's football team here this afternoon and alone made .enough points to win, Ohio State captured the vital game ana a pretty good grip on the state championship by a score of 22 to Io. Ohio State led at the end of the nrst half by a score of I4 to o. Bar- rington led off with a field goal and had repeated before a forward pass put the ball so close to Oberlin's line that Gibson easily went across. Oberlin's play in this half was not what the enormous crowd had been led to expect. Not a forward pass was executed and few tried. Gray was not able to get loose on runs. Though he frequently got by Claflin, either Tackle McAllister or Halfback Secrest would down him. 'Oberlin ends were slow going after Barring- ton when he returned punts. Gray's best trick was to break by Claggett and nail Bryce when that ,halfback was running for a touchdown. How- ever, Bryce did cover seventy yards, and Barrington's second field goal soon followed. Oberlin hit up the pace in the sec- ond half. They got the forward passes to going and Gray made a show of the State men who bore down to tackle him. Starting from their own fifty-one-yard line, where Vradenburg had caught a forward pass from Barrington to Claffin, Oberlin men went galloping down the Held with Gray shooting the passes to Smith, Vradenhurg and Waters. Bud received the last one that covered twenty-five yards. He was standing close to his own goal when he made the catch. ln fact Ohio State coaches claim he was baeli of the line and that a touchbaek in- stead of a touchdown should have been allowed. H ouser missed the goal, the ball hitting one of the up- rights. STAR PLAY OF THE GAME. The star open play of the game was yet to come. Starting from their twenty-yard line, a forward pass to Ament put the ball at midfield. Claiiin broke up a pass to Smith and Oberlin had to punt, regaining the ball on Barrington's out of bounds kick on her own forty-yard line. One of the passes to Vradenburg sent the play to midfield. Gray's backward pass as he was tackled didn't gain, but he got busy the next time. Dodging back and forth across the field he gave Waters time to sneak down deep into Ohio State's territory. From Oberlin's fifty-yard line Gray heaved the ball ahead and Waters caught it on State's twenty-yard line. Here was a pass that gained forty yards. Waters broke for the goal and Se- crest pulled him down a yard away from it. On a plunge Houser went over and again drove the ball against an upright when he tried for goal. State now had a lead of I4 to Io. Another Oberlin touchdown was feared by the crowd, and the masses of State rooters were in a fine frenzy. Barrington helped his side im- mensely by kicking off for a touch- back. Oberlin had to kick out and Gray did not drive the ball out of the Oberlin ground. Tackle Schory and McAllister got busy and ripped holes through which the halfbacks ran for two consecutive first downs. Inside the twenty-live-yard line, Oberlin's defense stiffened as it had often done before. Barrington went back to the thirty-yard line, and with Bryce placing the ball, drove it high over the bar. From then o11 the two teams strug- gled up and down the held, until near the end of the half, when Barrington kicked another field goal and U16 game ended. Coach Snyder. disappointed over the outcome, said that the task oi whipping lVestern Reserve one Sat- urday and repeating on State the next, was too big a task for the Ober- lin learn. gg oBERL1N REVIEW OBERLIN GAINS LAST VICTORY Oberlin, O., Nov. I6 CSpecialj.- Oberlin 27, Wooster IO. This tells the story of the last game played by the Oberlin IQO7 Varsity, the team regarded throughout the state as the best and fastest football team in Ohio. The game was ragged at times, and then again shone with the most bril- liant playing ever seen on Dill held. Twice, Oberlin players ran nearly the whole length of the field for touch- downs, and twice costly fumbles al- lowed Wooster to score. Oberlin scored her first touchdown after three minutes of play. tTwo long end runs, a few line bucks, and a short dash around right end by Gray, and the score stood 5 to o. The next touchdown came after about ten more minutes of rather ragged football. Wooster obtained the ball on a fumble, and aided by penalties and several fake bucks had the ball on Oberlin's live-yard line. There they stopped before a strong defense, and Gray punted out of danger. Wfooster then punted, and it was Oberlin's ball on her own thirty-yard line. On the very lirst play, around left end. swept the little quarterback, with XVaters, Sniith and Vradenhnrg as interference. Man after man was bowled over. Gray was soon running alone. XVaters fell on the XYooster quarterback, Gray threw off two more laelilers, and then it was Clear sailing and a touchdown. Houser failed goal. Score Io-o. Immediately after this, Gray was hurt and Strong went in. The half closed with the score standing I0 to 0. Varsity started off with a rush in the second half, securing the ball on a punt and carrying it down the field in beautiful style. Queer formation plays were used, and it was on one of these' that Smith broke through tackle and scored the third touch- down. Waters kicked goal. Score 16-o. , Wooster then scored her field goal on a fumble near the Oberlin line, and the score stood 16 to 4. In a few minutes more of play, aided by several long runs by Vraden- burg and short dashes off tackle by Smith, Houser finally carried the ball over for another score. Goal was kicked. Score 22 to 4. , Then came one of the brilliant nlays of the game. After a few short gains following the kick-off, Strong called upon Vraclenburg for a run around left end. W'ith perfect inter- ference to aid hini, George eluded all the W'ooster tacklers, and scored the final touchdown on a seventy-yard run. Goal failed. Score 27 to 4. Shortly after this Wfooster scored on a fumbled punt, kicked the goal and the tinal score stood 27 to Io. Such is the story of Varsity's last game. The nien have played the best football seen on Dill tield for many a year, and with this game will go life-long memories of snch inen as XYaters. Bnrton. lYolfe, Smith and Bradley. wunstmf . fr ., .l -. Academy Foot Ball Squad HE Academy Foot Ball Season opened with Captain Queen, Bowlus, and Senhauser the only men of the 1906 eleven. Ferguson and Dickinson, had played some, and joined by Ashley formed the nucleus with which to form the IQO7 team. The season closed with 127 points scored by the Academy and 72 by their op- ponents. These points represent four games won and two lost. Though the team was not quite so successful in winninggames as some would desire, yet it must be remembered that most of the material was new and under the direction of a new coach 3 and yet the season may have brought to those men that turned out, in- valuable results in body and mind training which does not show in the score, but 'which will eventually count in their lives. The light and inexperienced team from Painesville opened the season and in their new jerseys the blue and white team rolled up 63 points to the Painesville boysf none. - They looked fairly cheerful when on the following week Canton was defeated in Canton 26 to 5. But the best game and best playing of the season came at Pittsburg when they defeated the strong Shadyside team 25 to o. Baldwin Wallace followed and after a poor and slow game they skulked back to Berea. The score was in our favor 4 to 2, but no glory for the Academy, it should have been 4o. The slump after the Pittsburg game culminated the following week and East surprised even her- self with the ease with which she piled up 44 tallies. The Academy then lost to Uberlin High School 9 to II. It was a great game and fully showed the fighting spirit of both teams. Thus closed the season in Academy football for 1907.

In every game these men could gain their ground when supported in the line. Queen Was equally good on defense and also with his 'ftrusty boot. The team loses a good man this next year in Queen but is fortunate in so capable a successor as Bowlus. Ferguson at quarter and Ashley and I-Iaag on the ends assisted greatly in attaining vvhatever success belongs to the team. Senhauser, Morris, Walker, Mundy andQNash in the line are men hard to lose. Nash probably gave as great a contribution to the team as any one man. For next y-ear with Captain Bovvlus to lead us and with Dickin- son, vvho really did commendable Work' this year, Riley a find as every one says, Hopkins the captainnof the scrubs, Kelner, Tenney a new man, and Traceyrvve may hope for a better result. One thing is evident, there are only about three men again as a nucleus, and it mightpbe well to remark in anticipating next year that any man who joins the squad should do so With the determina- tion to stick to the very end. The Academy spirit is not what it should be because of a shifting student body, but let us who know what it means to be in the Academy make a dogged, determined effort to go somei' -next fall. Were I to sound the call for candi- dates now I should say: ' Every possible man out to the finish with the 'firm conviction that the Academy team deserves his best efforts in work, in en- thusiasm, and in loyalty.

Why? Because no one has taken the championship which we held last year away from us, and because' we were defeated only once by an Ohio team, which is at least one less defeat than any other Ohio team can claim, A pre-season trip into Michigan during the Holiday vacation gave a little idea -of the individual playing of the men, and had these five men been able to continue straight through the- season there unquestionably would have been fewer defeats for Oberlin. But the real season opened with four of these men out of the game and it was not again. until the Rochester game that they all got together. Meanwhile the substitutes had been playing good ball, defeating Case, Reserve and Wooster. The loyal work of these men was much appreciated by the coach. The Case game here was a walkaway for us, the Reserve game in Cleveland kept us working until the forty minutes were upg the Wooster game here was not so hard, but the game down at Wooster was a hustler and we took a back seat the second half. Then came the veteran Allegheny five whose team work gave us the little end of the score. The following week we went East and succumbed to Colgate and Hamilton, both of whom had been previously defeated by Rochester. The next night we tackled Rochester, undefeated champions of their Hoof, who, the following week virtually won from the Eastern champions, the University of Pennsylvania. Here for the first time in the season Oberlin really found herself, and in a well guarded game smeared the crack Rochester team I4 to 9. We came home feeling good and continued so for the rest of the season. Colgate came on with the hope of repeating her pre- vious victory, but she had not fully recovered from the effects of the trip and we snowed her under. The next week Ohio State came to Oberlin with blood in her eye and in the closest and most exciting game ever witnessed in Wlarner Gymnasium we sent her home, de- feated 26 to 24. At no time did the score differ more than by four POints, and frequently it was a tie. The season closed. as it alwaY5 does, with Reserve here and a victory, though hard won, by Obeflln- 280 It was a good season on the whole. We were a little slow in getting under way, but we finished strong and the men were un- Basket usually jolly and congenial. Eau Captain Smith played his usual hard game at forward, was al- ways in the game and never afraid to go after the ball. Simp's work this year will be long remembered by his startling long shots. He was a modest -captain but loved by every man on the team. Ward got back into the game late, but just in time to disgrace Rochester's star dribbler and help us to win the closing games. Buch, the veteran and rough-houser, knows Basket Ball from A to Z and fills his guard position well. Cy Burton played his first year at varsity center and worked Well with his mates. He starred in the Allegheny game, getting five of Oberlin's seven baskets. - Whit Morrison, captain-elect, played more halves than any other man on the team, besides being the most steady and consistent player, a close guard, but nearly always getting a basket or two himself. Glen Gray who played left forward the greater part of the sea- son is a good passer and clever shooter, quick in dodging and handling the ball, and should make a strong player next year. Billy Ament took his first whack at Varsity this year and found that he could meet the requirements. Although playing guard he tossed nine baskets to his opponents' eleven. Curly Evans never tried for Varsity until this year and then he played in over half the games and was a loyal sub. the rest of the time. Chester Pendleton hustled center in a number of games and isa strong candidate for the regular position next year. A big share of the credit for the fine showing made by the team belongs to the scrubs, who by their fast playing and hard work made the team what it was,-Champions of Ohio. JOHN G. OLMSTEAD 281 W1ll14ms,coaLh Wood Rlley Ashley Adams, Capt. Baird Theller Rahill ' Jeffers ' IVE games won out of eight, two of the three lost, later defeated here by overwhelming scores, one cut lip requiring three stitches, three hundred and twenty-five miles traveled. Lots of lucky shots, lots of good playing, lots of hard luck, lots of fun and sport. This is the record of the Academy Basket Ball Team for the season of IQO8. Everyone was talking about the good team the Cads. were going to have. There was Adams, Rahill, Jeffers, Ashley, Riley, Baird, Theller and a good bunch of second men. Well, it was a good team. No philosopher could say it was just right , for a mixed schedule which allowed weeks to pass without a game, and cancellations, made the season hard to follow. Rahill and Jeffers werennot quite up to their 1907 form. Ashley had been out of the game a year and so had lost some of his old-time capability. How- ever, Capt. Adams led a squad of men who worked with all their best efforts for the Academy, and no matter what the color of the paint, the value depends upon the way it is applied. The value of an athletic season for the team depends not always upon the red but upon the way the paint is put on. A successful season for the box-office receipts depends upon the color,' of the paint, and it's up to the Cads. and, by the way, to the College, to show a little more color, Did you notice the Blue and Wliite at Reserve last fall? Did you see the Cads. at the Reserve debate? VVell, they were there, and in return we College fellows should give them a little better support. It would be a good investment. To George VVood, Mgr., the team owes its gratitude and thanks. Capt. Adams played a strong game and was a good leader. It is here that we are glad to welcome as the capt.-elect, James A. Riley. To Jimmie', and the team of 1909 go our highest hopes and best wishes. JESSE F. 'WILLIAMS Academy 39 Buchtel Acad. 8 Academy 23 Fremont H. S. 27 Academy I5 Cleveland C. S IQ Academy 46 Fremont H. S.

ITH the Championship in view, the Varsity Base Ball Sea- son of 1907 was not a success, for of twelve games played only the first two were won. Possibly this was due to the inex- perience of the players. Wiley, Taylor, Todd, Kellogg, Lightner, Wilson and Vradenburg had been lost from the IQO6 team and in their places came men practically new to the game, men un- acquainted with the detailed points so necessary to Base Ball. Added to this there was no professional coach to teach them these points, for the Athletic Association did not feel financially able to assume the responsibility involved in the engagement of such a per- son. U Mr. Savage graciously offered his services, and did much to im- prove the article of ball turned out: but Mr. Savage was not the same as a professional coach, and it was this that the team needed. If the men could have been in the larger cities the situation would have been different. League games could have been watched, and many things learned by seeing great players in action. 289 Ease gall 1907 1 l I 1 li 1 1 l l l i l i l l s 1 k l J 1 l J 3 . l F I I, l l I I l 9 l E552 Zgall 1 907 At times, however, the team played magnificent ball, five games were lost by the narrow margin of only one run. At Chicago the University team was given the scare of its life, and at Notre Dame V. Ward went from shortstop into the pitcher's box and allowed that team but one scratch hit in six innings. The main fault of the team seems to have been its inability to hang onto the ball. For during the season a total of 51. errors was made, IZ, of these in the outfield, while only 36 outs were there made. Smith, Burton and VVard did excellent work in the box, con- sidering that it was their first year in that position. And the fact that Smith and VV ard filled infield positions when not pitching shows that the teani possessed good, all-round players. This year the team should show up much better. gVradenburg, Gray, Morrison and Robinson of the 1910 team- are all good players and should do much to strengthen the Varsity.

As in all other lines of athletics, the Bix Six rules cut a heavy swath in our lists of candidates. No Freshmen or Cads were eligible to the team. Parks, captain- elect and all-around champion for 1906, was not in school. Coach Keene had resigned and gone to Syracuse, and to even the most ardent and hopeful the prospects were bad. Fred Warner was elected captain, and facing such a proposi- tion he went to work preparing for the indoor meet on March 16th at Delaware. The home meet was pulled off and a team selected. The Methodists with their time-tried array defeated us, but some promising material was disclosed and we still had hopes. The outdoor work began with the opening of the spring term, also the rains, and we were compelled to dodge drops in order that some show of training might be maintained. The campus was used almost entirely as our track allowed us only three work-outs during the entire season. Our meets were postponed one after another, until at last on the 18th of May we met Reserve on our own field. With her team of the previous year intact she defeated us, but only after the hardest kind of aistruggle. Cables defeated Malone in the mile and gave Calpin his hardest fight in years in the half mile, Simms defeated Barden in the 220, where he was supposed to be invincible, Wells and MacLean clearly outclassed their opponents in the two mile, and Zercher won the hammer throw. The return meet with O. XV. U. on the 22d found us in the finest shape. Confident of victory because of the previous indoor meet, their hopes were badly shattered when we defeated them 63 to 54. Capt. NN'arner defeated Allyn, the Big Six champion, in the lmndred yard dash. and Simms defeated him in the 220. Cables had no trouble in running both the mile and half mile. and XYells and MacLean took the two mile. -lelliti won the high lmrclles. Zercher the shot put. Johnson the broad jump and Ferris and Lindquist took the high jump. In the hammer throw and discus we were out- 297 Trask 1907 I I I I I I I, I 1 I I I I I, ' If II I I III I I I I 5 .

' The men who won their O's were Warner, Cables, Wells, .I- Zercher, jeliff, Davis, Johnson and Simms. Of these Warner, Davis and johnson only graduate, and with Parks and Cole, two of the best men in the state, to help out, theteam of 1908 should be a winner. ' C35 C33 C35 ,Og 2 ,time IO 2-5.

Two tournaments were held, the first and second class, Chase winning the first and Gerald Rahill the second. From the contest- ants ia these tournaments the Varsity team was chosen, consisting of E.

There are two hundred and sixteen year members, sixteen life, and forty-eight resident. It will be of interest to those who have watched through the past years the progress of the Association, to note that the hockey- iield purchased a year ago has been graded and seeded, and is ready for use. Another interesting item is the fact that one of the rooms in the Gymnasium has been turned into a trophy-room, where framed pictures of the tennis champions, of winning Basket Ball teams, and other souvenirs are kept. This year a great addition has been made to this room 'in that it is graced by- a silver loving-cup, given as as prize at the Skating Contest to the winning class. I The Skating Contest was held on February eighth at Gayterls Rink, and nine girls from the four College classes and the Con- servatory participated. It was a unique affair and very successful, and to the honor of the Junior Class be it said that their representa- tives won the cup. Two, dances have been held during the year by the Associa- tion, and both proved even more successful and enjoyable than was anticipated. The Yale-Princeton Basket Ball game was also an Association affair, lending much to the yearly increasing attractions which the Association holds out. .I From March thirteenth to March twenty-third, Mrs. Janet M. K. Hill delivered a course of six lectures in cooking, the proceeds of which went toward the slowly but surely increasing fund for the swimming-pool. About eighty-five dollars were cleared, which, al- though not enough to make the much-desired pool a reality this year, will hasten its near approach. May all succeeding years prove as prosperous for the XYomen's Gymnasium and Field Association as the past one has been. 304 X URING the Fall of 1907 the unsettled weather made tennis playing irregular and uncertain, but the Spring of 1908, coming early as it did and with such fair weather, encouraged the sport to such a degree that anyone passing down Hfest College Street could see the Association Courts in use at nearly any hour in the day. There are five Hne courts belonging to the W'omen's Gymnasium and Field Association, one north of the Gymnasium, one behind the Conservatory, two back of the College Offices, and one north of Dascomb Cottage. These Courts receive excellent care and are in great demand on pleasant days. Tennis lessons have been given this year to beginners by members of the Association, and during the Fall more than fifty girls received instruction. t I Miss Ella Fulton, who Won the College Championship for Girls last Spring, was also the College Champion in her Freshman year, a distinction never before received by any girl in Gberlin.

O Yale or Princeton man ever rooted more lustily or cheered more enthusiastically for his Basket Ball team than did the Oberlin girls at their third annual All-Class game. At four o'clock on the afternoon of October the twenty-fourth. the Princeton scrubs, carrying the team on their shoulders. ran onto the floor, Buster VVilliams with a large bow of yellow on his neck tearing on ahead. Following them came a slow procession of Yale girls carrying a coffin in which was buried the spirit of Princeton. But the game which followed showed no lack of spirit on either side. At the referee s whistle the singing and cheering ceased and everyone watched breathlessly the first few minutes of play. until Fanny Stowell of Yale made the first basket. Then from the North bleachers came the victorious shout of the Yale rooters. which died down only when Mary Fulton threw a basket. Then the South bleachers burst forth into a jubilant song for Princeton. lfast. sure passing and good guarding kept both teams from scoring again until Gertrude Sturges made a goal for Yale. The second half started with snappy. quick work. llrinceton's fast team work bewildering Yale for a time. Then Klurrell lfdwards made a basket from a far corner of the tield. .Xgain the game was tied and during the next few minutes some of the best playing ever seen on a girls' court took place. lianny Stowell. however. was too quick for her guard,-she threw a basket and with the help of Ruth Gamble's sure free-throw. scores were made which ended the frame with a score of 7-4 for Yale. 5 Zion ale- iBrintetun Basket Eat! bpsical Training Iasses f?W'5'f' 5 A f Murrell Edwards, President ,, .

He briskly rang the telephone And said he wished Miss Thayerg The message was not understood, And quickly came Miss Fair. The youth quite innocent as yet, In words both soft and low, Asked her to go on Tuesday night. She could not answer no. And so he came on Tuesday night And asked to see Miss Thayerg This maid then asked bewildered qu-ite VVhat ,twas he wanted there. He said, The lecture comes tonight' You said you'd go with mef' Another man awaited her, The .facts did not agree. The banished youth was still quite game, He guessed at his mistake And sent his card up for Miss Fair To try this maid to take. 320 So down she came all smilingly, Uur innocent young friend 5 The youth quite gravely took her off The lecture to attend. He never told her she was not The maid he tried to getg And had some friends not told the joke, -She vvouldn't know it yet. The moral to this tale is this: V If you'd not. live alone, Be sure tousee the girl you ask And don't propose by 'phone.

In hopes that they might thereby gain profound knowledge They said, 'fWe're so busy-weive so much to dog We have to write Freshman themes, go to Lab. too, ' And work monstrous problems and translate much lore, In fact we're so busy-how could we do more PU I Next year these same students as Sophomores wise Returned to old Qberlin to open the eyes Cf the new generation of Freshmen, and show - just how all the business of College should go. They vied with each other in studies profound In fact, a more model class ne'er could be found. The next fall as juniors they came back to school . iAnd as upper-classmen they ne'er broke a rule, I The Stream of their Consciousness flowed full and deep They had philosophical dreams in their sleep. They got out an Annual and gave a class play, So that everyone said, They have served well their day. 'Andnow comes the climax-as Seniors they shine, And all that they do is most wondrously fine, .I They give Senior parties and make Senior calls, A And stroll with much dignity throughout the halls. 'No more does mere studying trouble their brain, rThey're Seniors, with them .let all glory remain. MAN and a maid and a mystic eve q ' And a country pathway free- Without so much as the good dean's leave We'll wander merrily. I We reck not mud nor sodden leaves Nor grass all wet with dew, Nor that such sin the good dean grieves- Nor yet, good friend, would you.

' Two men 'way off in the wilds of New York State during some moments of -weakness this last summer conceived the idea of a Bristle Union. jp And when Oberlin students arrived here last fall, Curtesy Crackster and Karl Quaffner were being exhibited on the streets, to the delight of the small boys of the town and- consternation of the Village Improvement Society, as the only-living exponents of the right noble 'art of Pompadourology, the science of the Hair- ship. It was not many moons before they had a large following of Academy students and the Club held regular meetings every evening in Room 13, French Hallj Hairy Bear and Jail Breck were made ho-norary members. All their meetings were spirited and people quite willingly aired their views. The club had some outside men of prominence to speak to them.

This school has taken its place as one of the leading business colleges of the country and is widely known on account of the thorough courses of training which it offers. The Cleveland Y. M. C. A., which places annually over a thousand young men in positions from many diliferent schools, states that they get a better grade of students from the Oberlin Business College than any other business col- lege in the state. The two men who have had most to do in bringing this school to its present prominent place are President Hender- son and Secretary Yocom. The former has been con- nected with the school since 1884, and the latter since 1889. Mr. Yocom is a graduate of Oberlin College, studied law in Western Reserve University and has few equals as a teacher. He has also had considerable business experience, is a bank director and also a director in a large corpora- tzon at Lorain. Mr. Henderson has also had wide busi- ness experience and is president of the People's Bank of Oberlin. FALL TERM FOR r9o8 Fall term for 1908 will begin September S. Among the new features for the coming year will be a course upon Investments by President Henderson.

You will receive a better salary when you are prepared to earn it. The Demand For carefully trained office help is greater than the supply. If you are not qualified, no amount of luck, in- fluence or pull will enable you to climb the ladder of success. We Can Double Your Salary If you will place yourself under our instruction, and do your best to learn the things we are prepared to teach you. We start you on the right road, teach you to do satisfactorily the work which the business men of today want done, and assist you in securing a position as soon as com- petent. The question is What Are You Going to Do For Yourself? Individual instruction and com- petent teachers enable our pupils to enroll at any time and complete the course as rapidly as is consistent with good work, regardless of what any other student may be doing. Every graduateis employed, and we are offered more positions than we can hll. The fact that several firms have in their employ from three to nine of our graduates, and that in the office of one company will be found thirty-seven of our students should convince you that there is a demand for competent office help. We would be pleased to furnish you with the addresses of hundreds of young men and women, and business firms who employ them, who will vouch for our statements. Our ,systems are up-to-date, and the same as those used by the largest and best firms. The Budget System of Bookkeeping includes single and double entry, the Voucher System, and a complete training in Banking, each student not only studying the principles of Banking, but actually doing the work in a Bank. The Gra- ham system of shorthand is acknowl- edged by all to be the BEST be- cause it is legible, easy learned and rapidly written. More than 80 per cent of the court reporters in the United States write the Graham system. Only experienced teachers are employed, and this, coupled with individual instruction, enables our pupils to do much more and better work than is usually the case in other schools. We solicit your cor- respondence, and would be pleased to have you visit our school before you decide where you will enroll. You will go to business college but once, and it is essential that you se- lect, not the largest, but the BEST school. . Do not wait for some one to guar- antee you a position, but get ready NOW. REMEMBER LINCOLN SAID: I 'WILL STUDY AND GET READY: PERH.-XPS THE CHANCE XVILL coME. It is bet- ter to be ready and waiting, than to be compelled to refuse a good chance for advancement because you have lacked the courage to begin the nec- essary preparation. OUR ENROLL.lIE.YT during the past year has been the largest in the history of the school. and indica- tions are that we shall have a still larger attendance this year. .-X word to the wise is sutiicientf' and we hope to number YOU among our successful graduates.
